That being said, you've got to take into account both

A: the frigate's hull weakness in the rear
and
B: the sloop's superior speed

If you're a good sailor you can take out a Revenant without taking a single hit with a sloop, without Full Sail or Come About.

get a war galleon it gives u much more gold then a war sloop and if u want a war sloop just plunder with your war galleon and possible u can get a war frigate later

What I'd do is set aside a module of 500 coins. If by playing poker or by playing blackjack, you can get that module up to 40,000, You can get the War Frig. As of now, I suggest the War Sloop.

your best bet is to save up to 40k then get the WS, that way you still have 20k when you go for the WG. pritty much how i did it.

Well theres no point in that because it would just be easier to get a war sloop to quickly get the money for a WG

I go more on the solo.. but i do use light sloop just to have some fun sometimes... its funny how u can take out a reaper or a MOW with LS and not even get hit.

War sloops

when i get a war sloop almost everytime i get hit it is in the sails and it slows me down. I stick with a war galleon, well in my case i bought a war frigate first, and i kept my light sloop from day 1

Too bad they couldnt make the LS cargo room bigger. i would be taking out my Ls to take out MOWs that i cant do with my galleon.

The War Sloop is essentially a weak standard Galleon that is more maneuverable.
