Nades are hard, definitely, but I don't think they're the worst. In fact, once you have seige, they're kinda fun. And hard to get? Yeah, but a challenging quest is a good thing, and there are so few now in the game.

Pistol, on the other hand, is just as boring to level (no combos, no fun graphics, just point & click... repeatedly), and really has no usefulness once its mastered. That one I master first, and then pretend it doesn't exist.

Definitely the pistol. I can't use it on Navy or EITC (and why I still don't comprehend), so it is a much more limited than any other weapon. Anything I can do with pistol I can do with dagger or staff.

I vote none of the above.

Cutlass: I like it. Easy to use, fun to get the special skils
Pistol: I like it. Once you get the ability to hold down the trigger to power it up, it is very usefull and fun to use once you are high level.
Doll: I like it. Great for healing friends/guildies. Love the life drain.
Dagger: I like it. Easy to use, and the throwing skills are fun.
Grenade: I like them. It's fun to find new uses for them such as boarding flag ships and taking out NPC's with them, or standing in El Sud at the first Stump, and lobbing one down to get teh second Stump by the river to come to you.
Staff: I like it. Great for multiple close in enemies.

I voted grenades and pistol...
Pistol I find boring and hard to level, and grenades, they are hard to level, require constant reloads, and are, in my opinion, very boring.
The other weapons I find very useful and powerful when the right skill points are applied to the right skills.

But I dont agree with Zep, nades are my favourite wep cos they dont cause lag and they are great on the col flag when u end up with the nasty lvl 35 crew.
I have no problem lvlin them with smoke nades and stink pot the rep is good in kingshead all the way up to lvl 20 ish and by that time u r strong enuff to survive in tormenta with them.
I cant see the fuss, I really cant.... GUN now thats a tedious story specially after the upgrade gun quests u tap-tap-tap... wait... tap-tap-tap yawnnnnnn tap-tap-tap... wait.... snorrrrr yer way to lvl 20 then they give u a paint stripper that not only decreases the amount of rep per kill but doesnt give u anything cool for all the ships u need to sink to get it and u cant swap it back... now if they gave u a 6 shooter OK, buuuut no !

Staff... pfft lagalicious! and too long to charge up, yawnnn some more! The potential with staff was endless, buuut nah!... We dont get to do the things it could do, if it could be used as a hand to hand wep as well as cast spells so u could actually clonk a thing with it then we would be lookin at a far cooler wep.

Picking staff! Actually, it would be better if it WASN'T so powerful. I know too many pirates, they get in a tough spot or a jam, and the only thing they ever reach for is staff. They become one dimensional. (BTW, I like staff, but try to not rely on it.)

Grenades are annoying.. not only because they take so long to get and master but they are also hard to aim with. On top of that you are ALWAYS buying more grenades. There isn't any unlimited grenade like their is for the pistol and cannon. Very costly....

It makes no sense, right! You can't shoot them, but you can blow them up.

It's the code, you can't ask questions, you must obey. The code is law. You don't want Cap'n Teage (sp) to see you shooting a Navy officer.

Anyway, I chose grenades, also. I just can't get the hang of controlling them. As for the pistol, it is one of my favorite weapons (doll or staff is my favorite, cutlass is neutral.) because with aim, I can eaisily kill lvl. 20- skelies and creatures.

Post who cares

the sword is impossible to hate
usable and powerful against anyone

pistol is annoying but fun to kill undead ppl with

doll a *** weapon at least too easy to kill ppl with

daggers almost as good as the sword once you lvl them

grenades are pretty cool but are unreal in this game

staff cool but makes killing too easy why don't the enemies have staffs

Why is it, almost all of you are grenade haters.
Its the most powerful weapon in the game.

From my views best to worst
1.cutlass
2.dagger
3.pistol
4.grenade
5.blank
5000000000000.doll
9000000000000000staff

I hate the voodoo doll and staff so much, that I hardly eve use them, even when boarding a flag ship ,
Its always trusty cutlass time.

I can't stand grenades. I think I'll never master them.

[QUOTE=CaptainGreenGene;125787]I see the same things you do but I look at them very differently...


2) Easiest to train by far. Stand behind the fence at kingshead and go from lvl 1 to 20 in an afternoon. You go from Note 20 to Note 24 and bank 8000+ gold. You save lvl 15 thru 20 skill points and drop them all on siege charge when it opens.


I don't understand the fence thing. I see other just farming the dudes, but when I try, they charge thru the fence and K.O. me. Could anyone give me better insite?

Until then, I hate grenades.

EDIT: I am sorry I screwed up the quote. Hope y'all get the idea.
