Building Up Cannon???

[Poison elf]

Doing a test the other day with round shot on phantoms, with differant level barrage I also noticed something that will make a big differance. Ships out at edge of radar took half damage from cannon verus it being right on top of you. I know I got usually 100 rep almost all the time on sailing and cannon both when I was leveling on skellie ships.

Take down sails with round shot, move boat back if it gets to close and finish it off with round shot at a distance so you get more hits in. You can use this method if you are not getting the full 100 points rep and sinking it too fast.

As always, have crew and crew bonus always adds to this.
