I think the fact that light class ships can't get upgrades would make it extinct anyway. Just my opinion though.

That and the fact that a brig with streamline can out run one!

I have a Frigate with Copperhead. We did some svs tonite and lets say if you get close to me I will fry ye! But I am slow and hard to turn.

A good svs skipper with a good crew and a streamline upgrade path could run circles around me.

Remember for each bonus in the new upgrades there is a minus. There is no such thing as an ultimate upgrade.

Ship customization gives ye the ability to make a ship to match ye sailing and sea combat style. So that in and of its self will make good cap'n a force to be reckoned with plundering or svs.

Question: does it fire a full explosive broadside 10% of the time or does it fire 10% explosive each broadside?

10% explosive each broadside

Or 20% if you get the Level Five upgrade.

Level 5? I thought the upgrades stopped at Level 4.

EDIT: Never mind that, I found it. I think I'll get Copperhead II instead of Skull & Bones for my war brig...

I sailed my Copperhead Frigate for several hours. The most explosives I landed on one broadside was 4 out of the total 12. I sank a War Brig with Firestorm hull that had no hull armor, but full health in that salvo. It was impressive.

I average at least one explosive fired one out of every five broadsides. I will have this hull on one my svs pirates war frigates, and a war sloop. Can not wait!
