Script
- 8764
- Instructor Matthias
Ah, Player.
Today is... Ah, that's right. Skills needed for naval battles.
- 8765
- Instructor Matthias
Naval battles mainly involve Gunnery, Accuracy, Ballistics, Piercing, and Reloading. Where would you like me to begin?
- 8766
- Which do you want to hear about?
- 8767
- Gunnery
- 8768
- Accuracy
- 8769
- Ballistics
- 8770
- To Next
- 8771
- Which do you want to hear about?
- 8772
- Piercing
- 8773
- Reloading
- 8774
- That's enough.
- 8775
- Instructor Matthias
Gunnery is the basic skill needed for cannon attacks, or bombardment.
It conveys such helpful effects as faster reloading time and less damage done to the cannons. Any military man who doesn't know this skill doesn't deserve to be one.
- 8776
- Instructor Matthias
Accuracy, eh...
Cannons are used to let you keep a distance between your opponent by firing upwards.
So, the skill used to ensure that they manage to hit their mark on the horizon is called Accuracy.
So what happens when you use it?
First, it becomes easier to anticipate the trajectory of the projectile, which increases your accuracy.
And it also prevents all of your shots from arcing, meaning you can fire at close distances as well.
However, it won't extend your firing distance. Nothing's perfect, as they say...
- 8777
- Instructor Matthias
Ballistics, eh...
This is a skill that helps you more easily calculate the perfect angle for a cannonball's trajectory.
It will increase your maximum firing distance and your accuracy all at once. If you want to battle enemy ships at a distance, you will need this skill.
- 8778
- Instructor Matthias
Piercing, eh...
This skill increases the piercing power for your cannonballs and lets you do more damage to enemy ships.
It's no use pounding a well-armoured enemy ship if your shots don't penetrate its hull.
But if you use this, your cannon fire will increase in power. It's pretty essential when fighting any ship with high Durability or armour.
- 8779
- Instructor Matthias
Reloading, eh...
This is a skill used to reduce the time spent reloading ammunition. If mastered, you may be able to completely overwhelm enemy ships with your cannon fire.
- 8780
- Instructor Matthias
Really? If there is something you'd like to ask me about, I'm happy to explain again.
- 8781
- What do you say?
- 8782
- That's enough.
- 8783
- ...Again?
- 8784
- Instructor Matthias
Very good. I like quick studies in my students.
Okay then, let's get down to practice. We'll start by seeing the effects of the Accuracy and Ballistics skills. Prepare your ship for battle and we'll meet offshore. Also, we're going to use real ammunition, so don't let your guard down.
- 8785
- Instructor Matthias
Okay, Player, let's get starte...
Hm? Decided to quit, eh. All right, let's call it a day then.
- 8786
- Instructor Matthias
Very quick out there. Good work...
First, let's start by pairing up with those who have not learned the skills, then keep at it until you can win. Begin!
- 8787
- Instructor Matthias
Whoa whoa, did the live ammo scare you off? Fine... We'll call it a day then.
- 8788
- Instructor Matthias
Hmm, I see. Good work. All right, let's move on to accuracy practice.
Once you're ready, we'll begin!
- 8789
- Instructor Matthias
There you are. Let's begin the Accuracy practice.
Accuracy is a skill that lets you attack at close range. The next ship with cannons is just like the ones on the earlier ship. Try to feel the differences in firing distance for yourself!
All right, begin!
- 8790
- Instructor Matthias
Okay, Player, let's get starte...
Hm? Decided to quit, eh. All right, let's call it a day then.
- 8791
- Instructor Matthias
Oh ho... Very impressive. By the way, were you able to sense the vital differences?
Well, even if you don't now, you will as you get used to using them.
All right, let's move on to Ballistics.
- 8792
- There you are. Let's begin the Ballistics practice.
Ballistics is a skill that increases your maximum firing distance. If you can't fire your cannons as far as your opponent can, you'll be a sitting duck, after all. Without this, you'd need the guts to try and get in close to your opponent while avoiding and taking cannon fire. Okay, let's begin!
- 8793
- Instructor Matthias
Whoa, whoa. Player, you're really going to quit in the middle of a lecture...?
You've got definite potential. If you keep taking lessons, there's no doubt you'll improve. What a waste.
- 8794
- Instructor Matthias
Too easy for you?
Well, as long as you get the gist of the lesson, I don't have a problem with it (though it does kind of take the fun out of it for me...) All right, let's meet up back at the port and we'll go over what we practiced.
- 8795
- Instructor Matthias
Very quick. Looking good out there.
- 8796
- All right, you should have a good idea what these skill effects are like now. Think you're good?
- 8797
- What will you answer?
- 8798
- Okay
- 8799
- I'm still kind of unsure...
- 8800
- Instructor Matthias
That's just what I thought you'd say.
Finally, I want you to remember that you can only use up to three of these skills at a time.
Don't get greedy and try to use all of them. Just examine the situation and choose the skills which best match it.
You can also learn these skills from famous people around the city, guild masters, and others.
Finally, let me give you this cannon as your reward for taking this lecture. I guarantee its power.
...Okay! That concludes this lecture.
Dismissed!
- 8801
- Instructor Matthias
I see, I see... Okay then, let's practice one more time...
Just joking! Everyone feels a little uneasy at first, but as you gain more experience that will all go away. It's okay to still feel a little uneasy now.
Ah yes, the last thing I want you to remember is that you can only use up to three different skills in a naval battle. Make sure you choose the right ones for the situation at hand.
Oh, and you can learn these skills from a Guildmaster or world-renowned experts.
Now, as a reward for completing this lecture I'll give you my special cannon. I can guarantee you'll find it to be pretty powerful.
Okay, that's all for today. You're free to go!
- 8802
- Instructor Matthias
Ah, Player. Okay, let's begin the...
Hm? You quit, huh. Very well then, you're dismissed.
