Sailing Skill Question

[Colombiano]

Speed burst is really useful for escaping enemy ships that are pelting you or to catch up to an enemy ship.

The extra point does make it last longer I believe.

Thanks for the replies. That is what I needed to know.

Ramming speed is good for speed bursts, too. You dont get much additional time for the extra skill pts on the full speed skill . I find ramming speed a better place to put the skill points (in addition to one skill point on "full speed") as it will also cause some damage to an enemy ship, as well as being a source of speed whenever you want or need it.
