For a ship that is worse for combat than Volante/Valor, and barely better for bartering that Caravel, it doesn't have any right to cost 100k Crow Coins to build and 40k more Crow Coins for green gear. like come on, we won't even be able to have it for 15 weeks due to weekly quests, do we really also have to spend those 15 weeks farming Crow Coins
The second i saw Panokseon, i was sure i wasnt bothering with that crap
The boat really is just because of Korean Bias honestly. Its like if PA was Portuguese company and they decided to make an region based on Portuguese Empire, and make a typical portuguese ship at the time.
Then grind for a carrack? Oh wait, you won't because the grind is a million times harder than this casual 15 week boat lol.
Agreed, 100k crow coin is too much for a boat slotted between caravel/gallease vs carrack. It should be half.
Sooo...Naus (Caravels), Carracks and Galleons like we have now? Cause they're all Portuguese invented ships~
Nonetheless, if they went with realism, the floating wooden bathtub of a ship should be terrible for combat, but amazing for trading. And they should have added a variant for combat, using the Turtle Ship from Korea, which IMO, would be amazing. Also, make them cheaper, like half the price, but clearly not as good as the Carracks since, the effort to get a Carrack is insane, and players that went through it deserve to have the best ship around.
Yea i'm aware they are Portuguese ships, but i wanted to use it as an example still.
It would be nice if they told us what niche the boat is supposed to fill. It won't be good for bartering. PVE it's hard to tell until we get damage numbers when someone in KR makes one. PVP might be it's real purpose, but unless it can use the nol, most won't use it either over a volante. So what is it actually for?
Global Labs got the blue gear announced. Two seconds less reload time. That looks a lot better now. Blue gear will also be much cheaper to craft than blue Carrack gear.
