Welcome!
Liquid Fire comes back to Pirates Online after being away for a while. She joined our guild because her old guild had retired. The subject of cannon defense came up and I wanted to type a few "Cliff Notes". Other pirates are welcome to jump in and add comments or show alternate opinions.
What Ram Should I Use when I Play Cannon Defense?
Use a gunner ram or else use another ram that is in the gunner ram family. There are three rams in that family:
(good) Hasty Cannon Ram
(better) Gunner's Cannon Ram
(best) Master Gunner's Cannon Ram (none of my pirates have it)
Where Should I put Points On Cannon Skills
Shoot
Barrage
Rapid Reload
Wave Numbers With Drops
The first question you may ask is, what wave numbers drop stuff? Of course, you are playing to get a drop that is a rev ram.
6,13,19,26,32,39,45,52,58,65,71,78,84,91 and so on
two ways to do the math
add 13's 13,26,39,52,65 and add 6's to each of those:
13+6=19
26+6=32
39+6=45
or, start with zero and add 6 and then add 7 and then add 6 and then add 7 and then add 6 and so on...
