Pirates of the Burning Sea: Ship changes for patch 1.6 |
Ó
Over at the official Pirates of the Burning Sea site, Taelorn of the Flying Lab Software dev team sat down with a new log discussing the MMORPG's patch 1.6. This patch aims to be a big change from the game's previous updates, given that instead of dealing with skill issues, it will instead be delving into high-end ship issues. After all, a pirate without a boat is like a ninja without black pajamas.
Taelorn posted that the most noticeable addition for PotBS patch 1.6 is the addition of 11 new ships: The Archelon, Cyclone (Test Ship), Dauntless, Mastercraft Couronne, Mastercraft van Hoorn, Monarch, Treason, 'Cruizer' Heavy Snow, 'El Dragon' Mastercraft Marque, 'Minerva' Mastercraft Frigate, and 'Trinidad' Frigate.
Aside from these new ships, Taelorn mentioned that patch 1.6 will be implementing changes that should narrow the considerable power gap between regular level 50 ships and those listed above. The changes are specifically meant for the regular ships, with the devs intentionally leaving PotBS' high-end ships untouched.
To that end, Taelorn also posted a list of the planned changes 1.6 will be implementing for game mechanics. We've listed the changes here, though those interested in reading Taelorn's full dev log can visit it via the source link below. PotBS' patch 1.6 is currently going through its paces in the testbed server, so you may want to keep on the lookout for any changes.
