High damage how is this possible?

Hi all,
Can someone explain to me how it is possible that some players can shoot and sink me in 4 or 5 shots. I have over 1 million points on my ship (incl voodoopoints). When i am in full war mode I even loose from players who are just sunk and come back to repair. Even then I sometimes loose the battle. I play level 43 use everything in my power to be strong. Personally I think these players use something that is not allowed in the game. If I am wrong please provide me with the information to beat these players. Do they use some items in the game that I don't know of?What can I do to win these battles? Thnx

 

Doing just quick calculation even with out all the newest buff and gems a player can easily hit for 190,000 + so yes it is possible.

So even if a player is being sunk..comes back on the map to repair...I am full points//I am still loosing...how is that possible?...They shoot me 2 or 3 times and I am sunk.....really ..you are sure?

 

If u have full pain lvl 5 and 6 and a high hitchance, u can shot 200k without any buffs (lamp and hg), to players with low dodge
And if u use lanters u can easy hit 300k in a crit.

So if u dont wonna die so fast, u need alot of dodge on ship and pet.

This was directed at the player that wrote that post. Your post is fine mate.

Quite easily 1 pain bringer level 5 with dragon powder = 365 damage x 586 cannons = 213.890 damage with flares.

I'm only 80% painbringer/worldbreaker and I easily hit 155k with flares and 458 slots, so top boats with lamp buff and 500+ level 5 pains will easily damage you for 200k+ with special ammo.

 

Rabbid: Two questions for you mate: (1) how did you arrive at 365 damage? and (2) in your example, why did you choose Painbringer 5 over Doomhammer 6, since the Doom 6s have a much larger elite ammo bonus? (I am trying to learn something here). Thanks mate!

 

I chose painbringer level 5 because atm they are the highest level cannons I have. Also they are the hardest hitting cannons as well, besides level 6 painbringer.

I ran max damage with powder and 23% level cannon damage gem.

This got my painbringers to 370 damage per cannon with flares, doomhammers level 6 capped out at 338. That gives the painbringer a difference of 32 damage per cannon.

So I believe this is Level 8 Gunpowder, Level 8 Ferocious Bookkeeper, Powder Punch 50/50, 7% Colossal Cannon Boost, 5% Cunning Cannon Boost, Manta League 4%. (No pet gem or lanterns for damage)

586 Level 5 Pains @ 370 per cannon = 216,820
586 Dooms Level 6 @ 338 per cannon = 198,068

Also pains fast reload and have 100% elite ammo damage bonus. They are the far superior cannon to doomhammer level 6.

 

I appreciate this very much. But I have a huge gap in my calculations. Here is what I get:

Flare ammo hits 75 damage +100 more from Painbringer bonus+ 25.2% Powder Punch skill x 75 flare damage = 18.9 + 23% damage gem times 75 = 17.25 + 32 (8% Gunpowder castle + 8% Bookkeeper Castle +7% Cannon Boost + 5% cannon Boost + 4% Manta League) = a total of 243.15 (and this is without taking into account you only have a 75% chance of a hit per cannon. Now I haven't included Dragon Powders, which states: Dragon powder

Give your cannons more power with powder

Overview:
15% Hit probability
15% Critical damage
So apparently I am way off on my calculations. Would you share your Painbringer and Doomhammer calculations with me (or at least the Painbringer one)? I appreciate your time and help mate!

 

We are going to move this to the new pirate tutorial section so that we may leave it open for a while.

Rabbid: In my previous post, I mentioned I could not get close to your numbers. What am I calculating wrong? (I won't bother you again; I understand if you don't want to answer and it is no problem. You might be giving away secrets that could be used against you).

 

I didn't calculate it, I simply took 1 of my cannons, tested damage, then 20 and 40. Numbers were consistent, for instance 20 pains level 5 = 7400 damage.

So take whatever that is and multiply that by 602 cannons (now the max I've seen) and that's what you get. And I don't have max gems and believe me I still get smacked around by a lot of level 45s. I'm still level 37 working to 45 and am missing a ton of slots. I wish I had some secrets but the truth is I don't. haha ;p lmao



200k dmg is possible with 438 slots so imagine 600+

 

Got it! Makes sense to me. Thank you mate - I appreciate all of your contributions to our Forum as well!

 

The actual maximum cannons is 640. We recently updated the post to include the new levels and buffs:

Maximum Weapon Slots

Good job! And you said you would do it and you did Tex! Thank you!
