A fast War Galleon can get to almost anywhere before any other player can, which means more plunder. I have also spent 5 skill points on increased plunder :-)

Speed is everything as far as I'm concerned.

Unless they have changed something... The 4 points (past the first point) you put into Ramming speed do nothing to help your speed. They are only supposed to affect your ramming damage.

As far as never being hit, I'd have to say that's a load. Yes you can dodge canons if you are paying attention. It's harder with the Galleon than with a Sloop, but possible. But you will be hit no matter how fast you are at some point. I've been hit by "line-drive" cannons before that there is just no way to avoid.

My biggest question is , why 5 points in the plunder skill? 25% more gold right? but at the point where you have all the top ships/weapons what exactly is the point of gold? Hopefully they add things to spend gold gold, but at this point it seems very limited.
