Navy Combat

[Frito Figmus]

This is a sad tale of the sea. A young upandcomer fisherman saves his gold pieces and fishing rares to build himself a ship the likes of which have never been seen! One day he finally obtains the necessary components to construct a true beast of the sea, capable of sinking all other boats. He sets sail on an ominous morning with a storm brewing. He comes upon a tiny vessel, he laughs, no match for his galleon! The storm takes the shape of a vortex, and energy vortex... : (
The moral of the story here is why on earth can land pvp tactics take place on the ocean, why bother building a boat if someone with an ev scroll and cast it straight over all of your nice shiney cannons and a huge boat. i i know you can just have an alt dispell it or w/e but to me it just seems to me that if your on the ocean BvB (boat vs. boat) should be taking place, not normal pvp.
my suggestion is to allow people below deck for full on boat fighting or just take away some magic abilities that can cast straight over onto someones boat,
thx

I feel your pain but EVs are an unfortunate reality of ship combat that must be dealt with as I do not think they'll be changing it.

They are easy to counter on a large dragon but not as much on the galleons due to the much can larger open area on deck.

The thing about galleons is they really are meant to be used with a crew and not solo. Even after the recent buff to galleons they are still the weaker ship in a 1v1 situation. But if you have a galleon crew that can repair, reload, dispel and do some damage... You are going to be hard to take down.
