Gunpowder Flask

Does gunpowder flask only work when you are using black gunpowders? or does it work all the time?...

Can i have a confirmation from a mod or... Other people r telling me that its only when using black gunpowders but I have tested it and it seems as though it works without black gunpowders...

 

It does work without black gunpowders, being just another damage bonus on its own.

 

Ahoy mate,

The Gunpowder Flask only works when you have powders enabled. When powders are enabled the gunpowder flask works like a normal damage buff along side the powder's accuracy buff.

 

Nimitz, isn't OP referring to the castle?

 

Explosive Alchemy is a skill that works in conjunction with Black powder, but it has been my understanding that Gunpowder Flask, the Topcastle ability, is always active if it is activated. I don't have it to say for absolute certain, but I would have thought.

 

Ahoy mates,

WakaLaka is correct, I misread the buff title when I was replying, sorry about that As for the gunpowder flask, yes it is a totally separate buff and works on its own independent of the black powders.

 

Hi Nimitz, lol at the fact that you've replied 1 minute ago, because I've just logged on, hehe. Errrm, That's making a lot more sense, so thanks Nimitz and everyone else I was deciding whether to get my astrolabe 1st or gunpowder flask... What would you do?

 

Haha burning the late night oil! It depends on what you are looking for. Astrolabe effects only your accuracy and the Gunpowder Flask effects only cannon bonus damage. So, it depends on what you are looking for on your ship. In the next couple weeks, a damage estimator will be posted on the which we have coded for you guys and gals to use to test and estimate what your damage will be. Watch for that being posted, it could be useful for this

 

larry, when castles first appeared the gunpowder flask used to work in conjunction with black gunpowder and would only have an effect if your powders were switched on, this at some point has been altered as the wording for the castle extra has been changed to 'increase your cannon damage' as opposed to what it used to say 'increases your black gunpowder damage' , therefore yes, it seems to now work regardless of weather your powders are on or off, this may be where the confusion lies mate

 

Has this now helped in your quest to solve your query.

 

Yeah ;(... Ty Nimitz, I've upgraded my gunpowder flask to lvl 3 and astrolabe to lvl 2... And i get what ya mean CD..
