a fresh start on it i would agree on everything you have .... except barrage.. i would max shoot instead .. i beleive the damage machanix of the game uses a multiplier between your abily to shoot and the power of your cannons.. i think you get more then 25% from shoot ..

i have explosives now they look really cool .. but not sure if i can handle the cool down... when i am with a good crew i load them on one cannon then fire fury or lightening from a different cannon if a ship respawns i can run to the cannon with explosive already loaded and get a shot off... then back to the other cannon to finish it off .... but at the same time i could have blased it with 15 fury balls, and i am guessing thats a lot more DPS then a single shot of explosives...

Explosives, really 3 rounds cost as much as 50 fury,they look cool but i am thinking they are not worth even the single point i put into them i found the only time i really enjoy using them .. is when i dont get to board a ship with my crew.. i can blast my buddies with them ... or .. when that Light sloops following me around to try and jump on my ship .. yeah .. it feels good to hit him with it

So my dream Gunner would have

5 shoot
5 round
5 thunderbolt
5 fury
5 reload............

later.... time to test my metal
