Lightning and Fury do the most damage of all. I normally keep round to 1 point, that makes it easy to level.

Depends on what your using it for. If your still working on mastering cannons I suggest you don't put any skill in basic shot so you can get the most rep out of it.
If your going for PVP I'd say max Fury for the simple reason it does the most amount of damage. Only problem with it is it's hard to aim with. But maxing Fury and Lightning works best with me if you looking for max damage. Now if I'm reading this right your asking if special shot does more damage than basic, then yes.. But wait for the special shots I recommended to max.. Maxing fire and chain aren't worth it. You'll hardly ever use them once you get Lightning and Fury. Guess it really all depends on the level and how you intend to use cannon. |

fury and thunderbolt for me!!!! fury=medium range, excellent looking, hull defense destroyer thunderbolt=long range, cool looking, damage and perfect for killing them masts, explosive=short range, about 4,000 damage, and good looking firebrand=medium range, damage over time and pretty good for starting

Well, from my opinion, I would keep round shot maxed and max out barrage, rapid reload and shoot, that way your broadsides will become super powerful and your cannon will still fire a incredible amount of damage, much more than fury or thunderbolt, for you will never have to restock with round shot, and if you have a slow PC, when you get fury, everything lags horribly.

If you still have leveling to do I'd keep round shot at one and put at most 1 on barrage and use round shot to get rep.
Get 3 on shoot after 3 you probably won't be able to click your mouse or button fast enough to take advantage of it. Put 5 on on rapid reload as soon as you can. I usually don't bother with grape and chain shot. Fireball- I hear it is good for SvS. In regular play it doesn't do much for me. I put 1 point on it. Thunder bolts - one point till cannon is mastered then 5. Use it to tag ships at a distance and to take out sails. Explosives - loads too slowly and is too hard to aim to be useful most of the time. Not to mention it is very short ranged. But can be good if you can load it ahead of time. put one point. Fury is the fastest way to inflict massive damage. I put 5 on it as soon as I can. Effective in SvS, Boss battles ( if you have a couple of gunners with 5 on fury its almost a sure win) and for taking enemy ships out in a hurry when you need to protect your ship. For example if a ship spawns right next to your ship. |

Each shot is better or worse by situation and the combat situation.
Most would trash grape-shot, but it can be very valuable in SvS combat. Explosive is amazing when used right, but you have no range and that incredibly long reload time. So, you have to weigh the balance. Long-range? Nothing beats Thunderbolt. Short-range? A pre-loaded explosive plus a quick switch to Fury is devastating. |

I love fury (maxed) and lightening (maxed) and both work well in SvS and normal play. Firebrand works well in SvS as its the only thing that does damage when they hit take cover and Grape works well for SvS when they haven't got it messed up-both are useless pretty much for normal play. I dont mess with chain or explosive (looks cool does alot of damage but reloads like a turtle and fires like trying to throw a really big rock just kinds goes plop near the ship). As stated above maxed round adds damage to your broadsides and doesnt cost to fire or run out. Mines maxed as listed above and with open fire I can almost put down a Dreadnaught with one broadside from the ol War Frig

My 2 max things are Thunder and fury. Explosive is great as long as you are 5 feet away from the ship xD. Round shot like Sven said I keep at 1 for easy lvling. I do not have chain or fire, they are what i think a waist of skills. I have grape max too ( It use to be good for SvS untill they made it you can no see people in their ships ). Also get rapid reload, it is great for tight spots.
