GUNS & GUNNER SKILLS Balance Discussion v1.3.1

Captain Smollett:
Awesome, looking forward to what you guys come up with.

Ccrack:
loading a gun with an ammo type then getting off and letting it reload, then comming back and having that ammo in the gun ready to use was something i really liked before it got taken away.

giving gunners the ability to do that would be a way to make them slightly more desireable since they can help out with repairs or something instead of having to wait on the gun for it to reload, or being abel to quickly run along a ship and set the guns up with different ammo types quickly.

either that or give an option to drop the 3rd ammo slot for a second tool slot, though that would probbly be unbalanced as hell

Alistair MacBain:
Thats a great idea imo. Giiving that feature back for gunners only would make them pretty useful again.

Calico Jack:
tbh most of the arguments I've heard against gunners vs buffgineer, which is what I feel is the subtext of this thread to be, seem to revolve around accepting the ammo limitation of the engineer for the chance of using the buff hammer to boost all the ship's components including the gun.

In other words reducing the ability of the buff hammer on guns, so that the DPS shows on a spread sheet as negligable would probably be enough.

I like the way you think-- with teamwork!  After all, isn't that what this game is about?

I started playing more recently so I wouldn't know, but it does sound useful, especially for guns that take a long time to reload (Hwacha, why you gotta be so slow, bro?)
