So last night I decided to get a veil done with an awesome lfg crew, on a brig. The difficulty of the ghost ships at the forts were just absolutely insane, I’ve never experienced anything like it before. They were far too aggressive and always accurate with shots, we almost sank twice. Had to sail away in order to focus on repairs, even with that the ghost ships were shooting from a far distance and hitting. Has the difficulty changed when you’re on a brig/with an emi??
Veil - Ghost Ships
@lj-marst0n I think the veil was designed to have the ships be more aggressive. It is a pirate legend voyage after all, there needs to be some spice.
@Grog-Minto @Tesiccl honestly it was so strange! I mostly do them on sloops, maybe it was the change of crew size difficulty... I don't do them enough on brigs to be honest, but still, I've never found veils difficult regardless the crew size.
@lj-marst0n bigger ships do take a pounding, the trick is ignore ships completely and just look to speedrun the Fort get a tight circle on it.
@lj-marst0n on sloop, they can miss more easily.
Imo they are the most deadly to a brig since on sloop they will miss more and on galleon they will hit mid deck sometimes, creating holes that can be disregarded.
Whenever I do a Flameheart fleet on a brig, we get bombarded so are we almost sink, and most of the time I have to leave cuz I have a strict time limit, and my friends end up sinking, with the most recent being because one of my friends wouldn't help my other friend with repairs and buckets, and they sunk and I felt guilty. I feel like the bigger the ship the harder they are.
@burnbacon I believe! They kept firing.. Leaving me to bucket for my life AND sail away at the same time.
Brig and galleons have always had a rough time with damage with ghost ships, they just take more hits as bigger targets.
but that doesn't mean that it didn't increase even more as stuff like that does happen, silent tweaks and unintentional happenings are pretty common
Skelly sloops fire off quicker in season 9, they'll light someone up now if they aren't careful. It's possible they are buffed up a bit.
Always seemed fairly random to me, some have the shots and some not so much.
Fort towers are monsters now too with the accuracy. Sea forts tend to be pretty random like ghost ships.
