Is there any information on when they will be available (for in game currency)? Originally, Cabin Boys were always available, during the 'transition' they were available on some events and some real money packs. Will they go back to being always available?

 

They were available in the Black Market. Not sure if they are available today.

I have Cabin Boys on my ship and it still isnt working the way it should for example my reload speed is very slow depite them introducing the fix on Cabins.

Does anyone know when this is likely to be fix?

Thanks

 

Cabin Boys no longer effect reload speed. From The OA Cabin Boys:

• They will stay within the game and will be available again from time to time.
• They will not be a level of the Powdermonkeys anymore, so that they can be used in combination.
• They will get new functionalities, such as:
  • Harpoon reload: -1,5sec
  • Cannon slots: +25 Slots
  • Cannon range: +3 Fields
  • Repair Value: +1000 HP per tick

Hope this clears it up for you

Tex

 

Thanks Tex.

I am maybe confused. lets use an example, I have just put on full Admirals on and my reload speed is +3.65 which is a full +1 it was previously. Is this now typical?

 

depends on what you had originally. If you are adding them to Doomhammers that a reload bump would occur as Addys reload faster than Dooms.

Tex

 

full addys 409 cannons +3.65 speed currently.

previously would be approx +2.7 or less

I am using this as an example. Full Doom I have more than +4.6 reload which prev was 3.7 ish.

I have full Super Salvo Skill (reload) so I am trying to understand if I have an error or if the norm for all players now is a +1 or more on what they had previosly (regardles of cannon setup).

 

Cabin Boys no longer give you a 40% reload bonus so using traditional Powder Monkey (20% reload) you will see a slowing in reload.

Tex

 

thanks Again Tex, I understand. If this is the same as everyone else then I am not at a disadvantage as this must effect all players however I would like to say as this is a discussion thread for Cabin Boys and I assume the affect it has in the game, now they are altered that to reduce the reload speed makes the game very cumbersome to play.

Thanks Again.

 

You are welcome mate. Yes it is an across the board change in the game that was announced and talked about on the forum for a while before it was implemented. It is due to the new Skill Tree and brings reload back into balance with the game.

Tex

 

thx, Yes I was aware of the change but was unaware until now of what the change would mean to the game play.

 

No worries. We did not know the exact nature of the change either till the patch was implemented.

Tex

 

In my opinion, this was a horrible idea. The reload was fine and accessible to all. This just slows fighting and farming making the game less fun to play.

Press your F5 key and look on your Seachart under "Crew" and then "Assistants". Try that mate.

 

Thank you mate
