@king-deka Ahoy matey!
The new ones we have...
- Broken Legs
- No Resources
- Anchor Drop
Hi Mate, what means no resources?
It means you cannot get anything from any of your* supply barrels. No planks, no nana's, No cannonballs. - Items your are currently holding can be used.
your = the hit ship
@surveyorpete said in Cursed Cannonballs Thread:
Does "no resources" empty your barrels, or just make them inaccessible for a time?
As @Capt-Sharazad said, it just prevents you from accessing the resource barrels of the affected ship. No way would actually depleting your resources fly, even if it did somehow make it past the concept stage.
@strinder 2 things:
First, the dance stun lock is a full 15 seconds.
Secondly, you can still perform actions when drunk. Maybe not as well, but it's better then dancing as your ship sinks into the depths. Although being drunk is really annoying in the middle of a battle.
@becausescience1 I don't know, I understand the frustration of not being able to do anything but at least I don't drunk walk out on the deck and off into the ocean while doing a jig. Also, I found myself drunk walking into more of the cursed balls than I did just staying still drawing out the effect.
@strinder Yeah that's fair, it's all opinions on which cannonballs are worse. Anyway, i think Rare said that you wouldnt actually know what affect the cursed cannonballs had until they hit a ship (it's like a random thing)
@el-dunco said in Cursed Cannonballs Thread:
Venom and Sleep cannonballs are next week too. Not sure what the third is but I already say RARE should scrap the Sleep and Dancing CC.
I believe the 3rd is the raising of your sails, or perhaps a gust of wind?
The Sandman’s Revenge – Sleep Emote
The Black Viper – Snake Venom
The Siren’s Gale – Sails Up (Or a gust of wind?)
@capt-sharazad well that sounds simply awful. I don’t completely hate cursed canonballs that affect the ship but ones that take control away from me are a frustrating mess.
Now we have ones that stop us from gathering resources. How did any one think that was a good idea. :(
update
Just faced the ships that lock out our resources. It’s not too bad at all. Being able to freely move makes this one a mild annoyance. Makes me wish curses that take control away from our pirates (dancing/sleeping) would be removed entirely.
Curses that affect our ships are still tough but manageable. They don’t feel frustrating or cheap like the jigball.

To be honest. Face it. The Supply lock is manageable and quite quite easy. Soloing the Anchor drop one though...... Shudders
It just requires you to keep yourself fully stocked (full pockets) during the fight.

knocked out all 3 of the new ones last night. The Supply Lock was easy since we try to keep ourselves stocked normally, so I don't recall once going to the barrels and them being locked.
The Anchor Drop was annoying as heck though, but it was more of an Anchor Toggle than a simple Anchor Drop. When hit, it would drop the anchor and make it so you couldn't interact with it, but another hit would seem to raise it and also leave it non-interactive as well.

Yup. I like that tbh. Getting hit by a salvo of three was quite funny. Anchor up, down, up. in about 3 seconds xD

Full list of Cursed Cannonballs and their effects:
@king-deka Cursed cannon balls have ruined this game. No good pvp anymore, just randomness. But I guess y'all got my money so why not ruin the game. What fun is sailing around only to run into some pvp that you can't do anything because they happen to have a dancing ball and you don't. Then they CC you, board and kill you while you can't do anything. Drop your anchor and destroy your ship. All while me and my crew had to just sit and watch. Just plain bad gameplay and game design for a constant pvp game.
Letting NPCs have the special cannon balls I understand. It's a way to balance them being bots and not people, to make them still give a challenge. But giving players these balls is not a good idea. This is easily abused and creates unfair, unbalanced, unsatisfying, and frustrating game play. Please remove these and make your game absolutely amazing once again.
Other than this one thing, the game is wonderful. But now unplayable.
