Skill Tree Advice Sought

Hello my fellow Seafaring Entrepreneurs,

The game has changed so much over the years in regards to the value of ER and ELP and what and how rewards are given. With the skill tree at the basic level have you maxed out the EP to level 6 with crystals or just put the minimum of 1 in there to focus on other skills up the tree?

Thank you

 

Yes, that's right. There is little point in setting up more than the minimum 1 x skill required in EP alone, particularly whilst your ship is in need of more useful skill sets further ahead.

Placing just one in the Basic EP skill allows you to meet the minimum requirements that are needed to proceed with more important skill placements.

I use a 6 - 1 - 1 combination in the Basic.

 

Great! Thank you Grand Mariner! You have answered my question.

 

Some players like to have 6-1-1 in basic skills to have more critical hits. Personally I use a 4-1-1 set up as it leaves me the perfect amount to maximise what I can. With different players having different playstyles, it is hard to say exactly what is the best for you but I would suggest 4-1-1 in basic so that you have more skills to place elsewhere.

 

Just remembe that EP is practically worthless. 4 1 1 is a good basic set if you dont have over 65 skills.
