Pivateering/SvS Tips!
PrIvAtErInG TiPs
SVS/Ship vs Ship/Privateering is a great event in the game and i will explain the basics how to someone can be part of the good SvSer. SVS happens Mostly in ANDABA SERVER during the evening! EVERYONE SHOULD GIVE IT A TRY! -PLAY FAIR, HAVE FUN and don't port big bounty as it takes fun away from others Tips for sailors:mat: 1. -Do NOT "OPEN FIRE" RIGHT AFTER YOU "TAKE COVER" -WAIT UNTIL YOUR TAKE COVER IS FINISHED Then USE OPEN FIRE... or use open fire first then take cover -TAKE COVER as soon or BEFORE you hit yellow on your hull when in battle 2. Do NOT use any sailing skills points on "treasure sense" Do not use more than 1 skill point on "come about" ------ they will not help you 3. Fight the weaker side of the enemy ship 4. Get a good crew - possibly with your friends 5. Hitting your opponent with "ramming speed" will help you for about 5 seconds. 6. When entering a battle, do not sail with the front of of your ship straight into enemy but with a side facing them so your gunners have a angle to shoot 7. War Sloop and War Frigate are the BEST choice for SVS -With a war sloop fight in midrange to far range with a crew. Also close range if you attack the weak side of the ship with gunners(BE QUICK) -With war frigate, get close or midrange so your broadsides can shoot at the same time as your crew is gunning 8. Always give your gunners a angle to gun, do not switch sides of attack to many times because ur gunners going to be running from side to side instead of gunning 9. Know your enemy. Depending on the strength your enemy, you will know how to enter the battle and if to take it serious (fight close range or Far range) High bounty on enemy ship means strong ship 10. MASTER YOUR SAILING- should be your first thing done before starting to sail in SvS Gunning Tips:pirate41: 1. In SVS "round, chain, grape, explosive" will NOT help much therefore do NOT use any "skill points" on them. 2. Shoot, Rapid reload, barrage, fury, fire and thunder are the main gunning skills/ammos in svs 3. If the ship is moving forward, shoot ahead of enemy ship 4. Equip a good Cannon Ram 5. Find good Captain 6. Practice in public ships then as you get better you can go with better captains and your friends 7. MASTER YOUR CANNON- should be your first thing done before gunning in svs Welcome to SVS and Have fun mates!:pirate2wn0: -LEO -CAPTAIN OF GOLDEN LION |

The number one mistake players keep making is not following the first tip on sailing. STOP USING TAKE COVER THEN OPEN FIRE BECAUSE IT WASTES YOUR TAKE COVER. WAIT UNTIL TAKE COVERS TIME IS DONE THEN OPEN FIRE.
CHECK FOR SETTING UP YOU'RE SAILING/GUNNING http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/f...ad.php?t=17937 |
Sail with a crew
I see a lot of players set sail with a war frigate thinking that they will do good with their broadsides. Broadsides are not going to be enough when fighting a ship with a crew.
NO MATTER WHAT THE SHIP IS GET A CREW BEFORE SAILING IN SVS IN THE TOP 2 SERVERS. BROADSIDES AND RAM DO HELP BUT THEY ARE NOT ENOUGH TO SINK OTHER SHIPS WITH A CREW. SAIL WITH A CREW |
Also something better to help that a friend of mine and a pro svser Bill Ironskull said. I will quote him.

More SvS tips...
First let me say that these tips are mainly about sailing with the crew as they play a crucial part in svs. You always want to be at a position where your crew has it easy to shoot the opponent and your opponent's crew has a bad angle to shoot you. Parallel sailing is common however not the best because it puts the battle in completely in the hands of the crew. As a captain you should place yourself in the gunners position on the ship you are sailing so you know if you are on the wrong position and angle. The best angles or position against your opponent are kind of diagonal from the enemy where your side is not facing the enemy's side but their their rear or front so their crew is vulnerable to shoot you. In other words, your crew has an angle to shoot but theirs doesn't. This is a vivid explanation of what i mean. Like i said these are just a few(means there is more positions than these) positions and this might not always work depending on your opponents skill and how he/she defends himself. Also it depends on your speed and experience to execute this action. This is not just in svs but sailing overall. In svs however, this plays a major role in the amount of damage done to your enemy and amount of damage received. Like i said in the graphic above, it shows which side is more damaged therefore will receive a greater amount of damage from broadsides or crew ammunition. You should use the less damaged hull side to attack/defend and attack the more damaged hull side of the enemy ship. |
Thank You!! I will surely take these tips and use on them on the High Seas!!
Thank You, Charles Goldburn/Legendary SvSers |
Good tips
Thanks for the svs tips. I knew about some of the tips presented on this thread but there are some that I did not know of. However, I don't think you have to be mastered at sailing or cannon to do well in svs. If a pirate is at level 20 at sailing or cannons, he or she will do fine.

Also if you have a round shot cannon ram that has critical, Use it I'm using a common one and I sink a War Frigate in 4-2 broadsides with War Frigate.
It doesn't matter if u have 200-400 hit points. I got 525-900. With critcal, 1200-2100. A broadside like that should sink a Fury Light Sloop in 4-25 seconds. Well I haven't read anything yet. But I guess I'm done here.:) |
I have some more tips:
Happy Plundering, -Pirate Miranda- :SkullBullet1: |
