I would have to disagree with that statement. Coming from the person with perhaps the worst comp set-up and horrid lag stemming from anything such as running through the town, sailing, being shot at, fighting, swinging on a rope, etc. etc. I have personally found that I can successfully manuever my ship and take down enemy War Ships as long as they're not using any cheap glitches (i.e. auto-fix/invincibility). Maybe I don't actually lag as much as others during SvS because my graphics are turned all the way down, so the 'shrapnel' and stuff never even shows up. The FIRE is the only thing that gets me...that DANGED FIRE...I HATE IT. Once it starts, my comp can't catch up, no matter how long I stand still and wait for it. It just starts lagging around until I completely close out of Pirates...and sometime even reboot.

I find no unusual issues from being hit by lightning/fury than the normal lag I receive when a NPC hits me. I just can't stand the invicibility...AT LEAST let me see the other ships health meter so I KNOW it's not going down. IT'S A HEALTH METER!!! HOW HARD IS THAT DISNEY!!!!!! The simplist of things and it doesn't even work right for me.
