Crazy damage

I have full castles, almost full skills, 300 doom lvl 4, 50 lvl 5 and rest is lvl 4 devastator.
Lvl 23 gems(damage prevention), 11-12 lvl 3 reinforced ribs, lvl 20 pet dmg prevention.

Really been trying to focus on dmg prev with everything, but it feels like it's useless anyways.

I dmg around 40-50k(even with soccer ammo) on people while they damage around 80-100k on me even with super plates.

How is that possible?

 

hit chance on ship and pet

 

they bust been having like 420-430 painbringers quiped on m8, i dont even bother anymore withe them CC fighters

 

assuming you have sellsword equipped?

 

Yeah, that's my thought too. This game is messed up
A few months and a new crazy expensive cannon is released

Yeah.

 

every two seconds m8 new cannon/skill/buff/etc = cash for bp and you all another condo goes up.

 

you say prevention, got any dodge if not since most run with pet - ship - hit chance + polished youd be basiclly takeing there full hits

 

Damage prevention is for NPC,s u have to have dodge on boat and pet....the more the better..

 

I'm really amazed about the confusion on dmg prevention and dodge - since I thought to know dodge it good with NPC and prevention against players? What is true now since I also struggle with it, are not sure... My feeling is that dodge helps a lot against NPC while having similar high graded gems for prevention on pet and ship adds only a little more less hit-points compared to what dodge is doing as prevention - on NPC? So against players it shall be the other way around?

 

I switched out dmg prev gems with dodge and hit chance gems, and this helped A LOT against other players.

 

some npcs u need dodge, some u need prevention.

 

The question below was posted on 6/19/18 by pirate "ultimateswampfire" and Moderator Swift gave what I think is a pretty good answer regarding Dodge Chance vs. Damage Prevention. I agree that it is very confusing! Maybe this helps.

"I wanted to know the difference between dodge chance and damage prevention gems?"


Ahoy,

Dodge chance is used to lower your opponents Hit Probability, Damage Prevention lowers your opponents Cannon Damage bonuses.

Cannon Damage increases the damage the player does by the ammo they use (for example Burning Ice Ammo is 90 per ball), so increasing your Damage Prevention lowers this value.

Hit Probability is the chance of cannons hitting you, so lowering this value with Dodge Chance lowers the amount of cannons hitting you, which in turn lowers all types of damage (ammo damage, elite ammo bonus, damage over time, etc).

Has this answered your query?

you MUST have dodge chanse and hit chanse, must big players have at least lvl 22 gems. full skill three of course. the best ammo, that is the most importent things, cannon spots and buffers.

 

dodge chance is for enemies and big NPC (+21 map and big raid) damage pre... is for every npc. dont work on enemies, like ozu and c1p
