Sailing and gunning skill requirement?

[seafox]

well , of course, I would say privateering.

The fleet invasions are hard, but if you do enough of them you learn you just need distance out from the bow or the rear of the ship of the line..a war frigate and a crew with good ammo and skill can take these down . Remember to repair often or port and put out again if you take heavy damage.

Cannon Defense is lengthy more than hard. Equip a gunners ram if you have one b4 you enter and use all the preparedness tips Igor has already posted. Aiming is different from cannoning in game so that is a challenge but you pick that up after a few times.

Plundering, again, use distance...let the ships roll into you..they will line up and sail bow first towards your ship(the exception being a few rogue ones with an attitude).

Privateering, or ship pvp, takes more skills....you can't always have a crew with maxxed fury..and you might even have to solo. Your enemies and their skill levels and abilities always change. The human factor always influences the outcome.

I'll go with privateering because it take takes a lot of skill and strategy to be good at privateering. In addition to just mastering ur sailing and gunning you need a lot of good aim and sailing skill and i know this because i used to think svs was real easy. ALL YOU GUYS WHO JUST SAY ALL YOU NEED IS "FURY GUNNERS" YOU ARE WRONG AND YOU SHOULD TRY PRIVATEERING IND ANDABA AND ABASSA SOMETIMES BECAUSE THATS WHERE THE REAL SVS IS.

I'd just like to point out, although I never really SvS anymore, I still manage to take out my guildies out a few times, most of whom never SvS. Give us about half an hour, and see what we can do, with "just fury gunners"

I'm gonna have to go with Cannon Defense. It's not so much that it's as hard as SvSing physically, but, like running a marathon, it's 50% physical ability, 50% mental ability. In SvS, you could call somebody in to take your spot so you can take a break. No can do in CD. You need to buckle down and get ready right there.
