Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) Every time i go sailing, i feel like here goes some hours of my game play. On pve server we should have better speeds, or we should be allowed to grind some useful skills while commanding boat. As we are playing a game but simply doing nothing. Just seeing water and hills.So increase boat speeds with new boat models.Or make portals on all starter town of pve server. As sailing at this speed is not gaming, its killing time.

Posted May 7, 2015 Xanadu outer ocean definitely needs a speed buff. Or a server hop on the north & south. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2015 Sailing skill too while on the matter. Not that Im against having both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2015 Not just PVE servers, the new elevation map needs improved sailing speeds as well and Chaos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2015 Sailing skill would be cool. The more you sail, the better you should be at it. Either way, I agree. Sailing takes forever! Especially on Xanadu. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2015 -1 to sailing skill. All gales, all the time, only on Xanadu. Nuff said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2015 I usually grind and imp things while sailing so it's not wasted time. You can do pretty much things while sailing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2015 Then you're either coasting with the wind, or you're a passenger. Not everyone sails with a crew of alts on their boat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2015 Wargasm, I was just commenting on main post On pve server we should have better speeds, or we should be allowed to grind some useful skills while commanding boat. As we are playing a game but simply doing nothing. Just seeing water and hills. Also -1 for town portals. But some kind of speed buff would be nice. Someone suggested sails, rudders, oars and similar ship parts should be part of equipment on boat/ship, so depending of QL you get buff - same as with horse eq. I would also like to see option someone suggested to lower your sails on big ships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2015 On xanadu i think portals between starter towns would be great maybe then when people joined they wouldnt just see a hole in the ground with npcs but an actual community. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2015 -1.Shitty sugestion. Do what people actually want:Raise minimum sailing speed in bad winds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2015 Kill light breeze, there's nothing any dev can say to convince me that THAT would be a hard change to code. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2015 right now the winds are either gale or light breeze, it rarely stays at strong wind. it should be strong wind , or strong breeze most of the time and then sometimes go to gale or light breeze. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 10, 2015 Increase boat speed with new models for pve servers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 11, 2015 Tie speed to ql of boats ,or anything but yes as always +1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 11, 2015 I've said it before and i'll say it again, add +Speed for every 10 ql of the boat. Improves sail times. Improves ship building economy. Improves the fun factor of sailing instead of point / afk come back 30 mins later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
