Ive also noticed that there are areas of the game that require a lot of teamwork. The Kingshead quest is rediculously hard IMO. I lost count of how many times I died trying to search all the barrels and crates. And that was with a whole bunch of help. One minute you are fine and the next you are being attacked by several high level enemies at once. The tonics are so slow to regenerate that you can only count on one to save you.

Im one of those people who loves to go solo a lot of the time-but thats simply impossible on this game. The high level ships are much too powerful for even maxed broadside cannons. I love it how I can hit a warship 3 times and barely get its health bar down by half. On the other hand-one hit from it and Im sunk. Again-if I had a full crew on my ship Im sure that would make all the difference. I think Disney really intends for a lot of teamwork on this game.

I also dont like not being on the same island when I log back in. We get discoed so much and it is a pain to have to sail back. Getting teleport helps a ton but not with the wild islands. Also, I hope they make the chat easier to use. I have gulped down way too many expensive tonics from typing the letter "T"-so frustrating.

I agree that it is very hard in the beginning. The "take aim" skill on the pistol is the best weapon-just like others have said. Im much more frightened of high level navy than I am of non-human characters on the game now. With the pistol you can pretty much take out any non-human thing-as long as you arent ganged up on.

I'm at work right now so I can't log into the game to get the exact wording of the "Take Aim", but I know that I'm a little confused as to what exactly I'm suppose to click to activate it (I have the ability to use it, just don't know if I am actually using it correctly). Anyone have laymen's terms to using it?

Regarding the island thing (getting cut off while on one island and coming back on-line on another). It seems that it sends you to the last island you were on WITH THE AREA THAT ALLOWS YOU TO REPAIR/SELL/BUY ships.

And thank goodness I'm not the only one going through tons on tonics--especially when I am whispering to a friend. I hate that the dialogue box is so touchy.

If you have take aim as a skill, all you have to do is hold the left click button down and a fill meter will show up. You hold the left click for as long as you want to fill that meter up. When you let go of the left click your gun will shoot.

Basically with "take aim" you just hold down the control key to get a strong shot. I havent really learned how to control it perfectly-it seems random to me. At times I will hold it all the way til it reaches the top and it will do less than 300. Other times it will do 1000-so for me its kind of random. Maybe others have figured out the exact way of using it. It does a good job of killing high level creatures though. I have maxed the take aim.
