Cannon skills: Shoot and Rapid Reload

[Speedway Master]

That's true since shooting another cannonball resets the reload time, but if you can shoot all those 3 cannonballs at once, it will shoot more cannonballs with less time.

Thanks for explaining that.

Not that I'm doubting you but... are you sure? I'll take your word on it since I really had no idea between the different either though.

I have seen people fire 2 cannonballs at a time. I guess that they have upgraded it. (I never do)

Rapid Reload and Shoot are 2 skills that every cannoner should consider upping.

Basic Shoot increases the how fast you can fire each cannonball, increasing this means you can get all 3 balls out of your cannon close enough together to all land in the same place, inturn causing more damage through the bonus.
Rapid Reload cuts down the time between rounds while the cannonballs are loaded, making switching types easier.

Example:
Pirate A, with only 1 on each skill can fire 3 cannonballs in just over 2 seconds, with delay between, and has to wait for the reload, about 5-10 seconds before going again.
Pirate B, with 4 on shoot and 4 on reload can fire all 3 in aobut 1 second, and is already sending a second set of 3 before pirate A is reloaded and ready for their second round.

so:

• 'Shoot' is only good for ammo type with multiple cannonballs (round shot 3, chain shot 2, etc) and does nothing for ammo type like thunderbolt
• 'Rapid Reload' is actually a more all-rounder for any ammo type
