Allow shipwright to build higher level ships for you

[pauldavies630]

Would be nice to be able to buy higher level ships from shipwright using corks. At moment only lets you upgrade original boat then only offers repairs. Having to capture and board ship not easy. Managed to sink thousands of ships but only board 71,most of which I had captured before or at higher level than Captain could control

So you could capture them you just don't want to now... I mean its hard, but you did it outside you captain level. Like your trying flex and be a victim here... And its not that hard really its not. Once you get practice you just use the CORSAIR you get from a quest to capture everything you could ever want, you just got learn to aim better, and upgrade you cannons...

Also you don't need to capture every single ship, but you can get a lot of stuff by boarding and I spend nights were I just capture like 12 ships back to back see if it has super structures sink it if don't and then roll dice it has parts I wanted when I occupy it, pull parts off and then sink them.

Again its a skill issue, not really a game issue. It takes practice at first I sucked at boarding now got better guns and corsair there isn't a ship in game boardable I can't take some GROUPS of ships are harder then others sure, and I could sink them way freaking faster, but there is tons info on how to steal ships online its only thing really online for this game guide wise in fact lol

Got nothing to do with skill. Trying to board 1 ship while being attacked by huge fleet virtually impossible. Found easy to aim guns using mouse. Right joystick just not controllable enough to board. Having another way to get new ships would make game lot more playable.

For me solo boarding after the walrus just didn't work. Scorp, marlin and walrus sail around in the open with one or two others, so unless you're really undergeared those are doable. For vigilant and other fleet spawns you either need to ask for help or find a spot where some high levels are farming and hope they let you have one (they usually will). Kiting a boat away from the fleet never worked for me, the whole pack aggro'd. And actually i found the walrus immortal helmsman the most difficult to take down, even including the atman boats. I mean the dude just would not die
