Therefore, as long as there are seven or eight players and some NPC sailors, a small pirate group can be formed. As long as they can forcefully approach and engage in a boarding battle under gunfire, the pirates have a great chance of winning, and there are many
There are no mid- to low-level merchant ships without magic crystal gun bays. Even if they originally have gun bays, players will often transform the gun bays into cargo bays in order to save money and carry more cargo. In addition, ships carry much more cargo than trucks.
Even if you share it with a few people, you can still make a good profit.
However, there are many problems:
The first is that the sea trade route is unfamiliar. No one from the three major guilds has been to sea trade. It would be difficult to intercept the Viscount of Corsica if he doesn't know which route he is taking.
The second is that finding a boat on the sea is not like looking for a person on land. The place is too big and it is very difficult to find. The sea is spacious and the sight distance is limited, making it difficult to catch.
The third is ship driving. Players from the three major guilds lack ship driving experience and do not have the ship speed bonus of naval combat skills. There is still a big problem in terms of speed.
It’s okay if there are no naval players. Although the strongest group of naval players in the Snowman City area are basically all in the Viscounty of Corsica, the actual number is only in the hundreds. The Viscounty of Corsica has a total of more than 5,000 players.
, the probability of encountering a navy player is not high. If you are really unlucky and encounter one, just give up. You won’t be able to catch up anyway.
Longyin Cangqiong does not believe that the vast majority of combat professional players will waste their precious skill slots learning naval combat skills. It is possible for merchant players to learn naval combat skills, but the probability is not high, because various business, collection, and production skills are all
It consumes a lot of skill slots.
When no one has sailing skills, it all depends on the player's sailing skills. The level of sail and rudder operation determines whether the player can effectively utilize the wind. Therefore, players who have not sailed a few times will definitely be better at sailing speed.
It is much slower. Unless the ship's performance is much stronger than the opponent's, it will be impossible to catch up with the plunder target.
But no matter how difficult it is to be a pirate, you still have to do what you need to do. If you can't do it once, just do it a few more times and slowly accumulate experience until you do it well. As for the problem of naval players, since the powerful navy players all go to Corsica
With the viscounty in the sky, Dragonsong Sky will look for those who are not strong. Anyway, the targets of the plunder are merchant players and combat professional players. It doesn't matter if they are slower than the naval players in the viscounty of Corsica, as long as they are faster than those players without navigation skills.
The more Longyin Cangqiong thought about it, the more reliable his idea became. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He simply stopped sleeping and went online to tell Longyin Tianya his idea. After hearing this, Longyin Tianya also felt that it was feasible and worthwhile.
After giving it a try, I contacted the two presidents, Baofeng Ruilan and Speedy Myth.
After a brief communication, the two of them also felt that this might be a breakthrough, but the three of them had differences on the specific implementation.
Baofeng Ruilan is not a wealthy person, and does not have ample funds to support this matter, and his style of doing things is relatively stable, so he wants to find a test group to try it out first to see how the effect is before considering increasing investment.
Although Speedy Myth is not as rich as Longyin Cangqiong, he can still be regarded as a rich man. There is no financial problem, but he attaches great importance to details and preparations, so his idea is not to alert the snake, but to go to the navy players first.
A number of teams were organized within the meeting to volunteer to do this, and they would be launched when everything was ready.
Longyin Cangqiong's attitude is the most radical. He really wants to see his plan succeed. He can't wait to organize a dozen groups of players who are willing to be pirates tomorrow to go directly. If he doesn't have money to buy a ship, he will pay for it. If he doesn't have a navy, he will pay for it.
He spends money to recruit players, and he is willing to give bonuses if they perform well. Anyway, Longyin Cangqiong has money, so as long as he can win and regain his face, he doesn't mind spending more money.
Fortunately, Long Yin Tianya was there to remind him, so that he didn't make a fool of himself.
Ships with more than 4 gold cannot be bought with commercial currency, and you cannot enjoy the discount of commercial currency. Although Longyin Tianya has money, it only has more RMB and not so much game currency.
Previously, the price of the currency fell rapidly, and Longyin Cangqiong suspended the exchange. His personal development cost money, and the development of the Dragonyin Guild's territory was supported by him independently, which also required a large amount of funds. As a result, the funds in his hands shrank relatively quickly.
, now only has more than 60 gold. This is because the territory has just begun to develop and does not consume much funds, otherwise he would have even less funds at his disposal now.
He can give RMB when looking for navy players and giving bonuses, but he can only use game currency to buy ships. He also has to keep some money in reserve, so it is impossible to buy many big ships at once.
Moreover, a ship with more than 10 gold is considered a large size among small ships. The shipyard may not have it in stock. If it is not in stock, you have to order a ship and you need to wait for a while. A ship with 4 gold usually takes one day. The larger the ship, the longer it will take.
.If you buy a lot of ships and the shipyard’s manufacturing capacity is limited, you may even have to queue up to wait for the ships to be built.
In fact, the players in the Viscounty of Corsica initially used small or medium-sized ships with less than 10 gold, and then slowly switched to them.
Moreover, the Viscounty of Corsica has an advantage that other players do not have, that is, the Viscounty of Corsica belongs to the Sardinian system. In addition to buying ships in Snowman City, players in the territory can also go to Sardinia to claim it.
They bought ships in various seaport cities. With this condition, most players in the Viscounty of Corsica were able to buy large-sized small ships or even small-sized medium-sized ships in a short period of time.
But so far, medium-sized ships are still rare, because the manufacturing time of medium-sized ships is relatively long, there are few shipyards that can build medium-sized ships, and the price is very expensive. The most important thing is that there are certain requirements for regional reputation. Therefore, so far
So far, not many people have replaced it. Those who have replaced it are all purchased at the Snowman City Shipyard or the Ajaccio Village Shipyard. The prestige of other places does not meet the requirements.
This restriction may seem a bit unkind, but in fact it is very reasonable. There are not many people who actually buy large ships. As long as the need is not urgent, the shipyard can usually arrange it. In addition, if there is no such restriction,
If one shipyard can wrap up all the ships, other shipyards will have nothing to do except building special ships or higher-level ships.
Moreover, shipbuilding is an industrial chain. From raw materials to shipbuilding to modification, profits can be made from these, and the territory can also collect taxes from it. If there are no restrictions, large ships can be built at once, and then the shipyard will make explosive profits.
That's too much nonsense.
Therefore, no matter how anxious Longyin Cangqiong is, this matter cannot be accomplished overnight, and there must be a preparation process.
However, Longyin Cangqiong did not give up. If it doesn't work tomorrow, then the day after tomorrow. If it doesn't work the day after tomorrow, then the day after tomorrow. If more than a dozen groups don't work, then he will organize two or three groups first, and he plans to get two or three 7 or 8 gold ships to try first.
