Deadlier Acid
 

Since August 14 update the acid poison from pistol and dagger deal more damage point. Before it was only 10 damage point per second but now it is 30 damage point per second.

My lvl 30 pirate boarded a flagship corvette a few days ago. Three EITC Thugs (level 10s) were on board and all threw Adder (poisoned dagger) at me. Three adder means 90 damage point per second so my health went down fast. Maybe that was the first time I must use tonic when fighting enemy 20 levels below me. Adders from Brigands, Raiders and Assassins also deal 30 damage point per second now.

I don't know damage point for Burn Wound or Venom before the update so can't tell they're deadlier or not.

Aww making it even more difficult for higher levels to ignore the lower. Next thing you know they will increase the damage of cutlasses on cadets.

OMG thats the reason
i board a sentinel yesterday and i was like OMG! i had 198 health left!
My real health is 2440. This also happened with the spanish undead bandidos and Captains.
My friend lv 34 died :(

I just tested and Wound is now 50 damage point per second!
This must be much higher than before the August 14 update.
The only skill we have that can cause Wound is Sidewinder (dagger)
and grenades (after we activate the Shrapnel passive skill in cannon).
We don't have skill in cutlass that can cause Wound but cutlass wielding
enemies (even the low level ones) have Wild Swing skill that can
cause Wound. That's unfair.
So be careful when you fight those Undead Pirate/Grunt/Mercenary/
Officer/Seabeard etc. They are much more powerful than before.

i noticed that. i was attacked my an undead pirate (that would normally not be a problem) and i got 50 damage point. lol i didnt realize until i had like 300 health left. O_o

Ohhh... That's why i was being creamed by a couple of brigands:largeskull:.

That is one sweet update that I am really looking forward to seeing. I haven't been on for a coupla weeks now.

How do u c this in the game. This wound thing.
 

I have two almost lvl 40 pirates, one 40 and one 37, and I've failed to c the wound although I do c the wild swing. Also is it only with the cutlass that the wound can be issued with the wild swing or the dagger as well? I thought it was just cutlass but now there is a post on here mentioning how a brigand did it? That is a dagger of course. Also how can we make wound happen in a battle to use against our opponent?
