After reading this post I have a good idea of what I'm going to be sinking my points into but I can't decide what to max and what not to. Here is a rough draft with questions to follow:

5/5 Left Broadside
5/5 Right Broadside
1/5 Full Sail
1/5 Come About
*/5 Open Fire
1/5 Ramming Speed
*/5 Take Cover

*/5 Windcatcher
*/5 Tacking
0/5 Treasure Sense
*/5 Taskmaster

13/26

I'm not a fan of Treasure Sense. Seems like a good idea if you plan on helping out lowbies. Might be something I'll use on an alt but not on this character.

All of the abilities with a */5 are ones that I'm not sure how many points I want to put in. Open Fire and Take Cover are either going to be 1/5 or 0/5 but I can't decide if I want both, one or the other, or none of them at all. After I can figure that out, I plan on dumping the remainding points into Windcatcher, Tacking and Taskmaster. Right now I already have 4 points in Windcatcher and 2 in Tacking.

If I don't take either Open Fire or Take Cover it can be divided 5/4/4 or 5/5/3 into Windcatcher, Tacking and Taskmaster in any order. If I plan on taking one or both, then that would neglect two points from the 3 passives. If I can't max all three of the above passives, which should I neglect? Would 4/5 on both broadsides be another viable option?

Thanks for any input.

Edit: Incorrect math on skill points.
