@@zuperbomz I don’t know of any cannon changes, however servers have been more unstable lately than usual and the stuttering/desync will throw your cannon up and down significantly.

@@zuperbomz also one thing I notice about my aim personally is that since I’ve been running so much galleon lately my sloop cannons are garbage. So make sure you get comfortable per ship type. Also cannoning is very much a rhythm skill similar to shooting a basketball. So find out what helps you get into a good rhythm whether it’s music or something else.
@DaxterSnickers Жыл бұрын
Really nice video, yet I have a questions about cannons, or rather holes and hitboxes. Where do the holes appear depending on where you hit, and how much does it influence the size of the hole in the hull? Hence the bigger the hole the longer the repair time. And how much damage can you inflict with one cannon ball? Can you damage more than one part?
@DurzoBlint116 Жыл бұрын
I think you should’ve mentioned the effects that cannonballs have on each section of the ship. I’ve been playing with a couple guys recently that had no idea they needed to shoot different parts of the ship, or that shooting the same spot causes up to tier 3 holes and then no more in that spot. They viewed the enemy ship as a health bar instead of individual parts to form the whole

Two more helpful tips I can give is 1. For long shots if your teammate is hitting you can just immediately match their arc, this also works with the enemy ships cannons if they hit you, you can match their arc. 2. Something to help against the blunder meta is if you stand away from the cannon while holding a blunder/cannon you can load the cannon.

Here's a little tip for efficient cannon usage. Try to line you boat up so that your left cannons are the ones you use instead of your right. This is so you can quickly turn to the cannon ball barrel and reload quicker instead of having to get off the cannon go to the barrel and run back to the cannon.

Another thing is if you are on a downwave and need to aim your cannon very high just to hit the enemy ship its not worth doing because the reajustment can make you lose cannon pressure. You need to keep line of sight with the enemy ship to make sure that you aren't getting one balled or that they haven't turned out of broad.

funnily enough, whenever we get lit on fire, we just sit there while burning and firing cannons until we get too low, pop food, and repeat. Fire is not an excuse to stop firing upon the enemy cannons.
@liger0000 Жыл бұрын
If you go up against a crew with a solid helm they will send snipes at your cannon line and many times when on fire you are 1 shot to sniper or even if you are full health but on fire when you get sniped you don’t have a lot of time to heal before fire kills you. This definitely doesn’t always happen but just watch out for the snipes along with cannon splash damage.

Lower repairs and water, if no lowers I would always be shooting cannons, get fire out asap (depending on the scenario you may need to cannon or bucket instead), generally since you are downstairs you can hear boarders grabbing ladder and mermaids so call those out, also you typically want to be on cannon #2 which isn’t the front most one but the one behind that, then if there is no angle to shoot cannons I would be repairing sails, ank, wheel, and even mid deck holes if there is time.

Start slow and gradually do it faster till you find that sweet spot. As far as dying to sword and blunder I would recommend the shoot and move mindset. After you shoot your first shot ALWAYS immediately move to a different location and then aim and shoot. Not always walking forward. Movement is 50% of double gunning. So an example of this would be to shoot a boarder, run downstairs and be turned around waiting on them with your 2nd gun when they chase after you with sword.
