Cutthroats are being ripped off

They were givin that name becuase they cooked beef jerky on the beach. The beach bums of there day LOL Later one the addapted the name kind of as a nick name for priviteers. Kind of like now days how they call Infantry, "Grunts". ... Text ...

Thanks for helping me explain. The point I was trying to reach was:

Buccaneer = Pirate
Cutthroat = Pirate

Buccaneer <-> Cutthroat

Treason PIRATE Flagship

Cutthroat = Pirate

lol

The point that you are actually trying to make is that you want a Treason and don't want to level a Bucc

Which I can sympathise with, leveling is a pain. And I'm not really that opposed to CTs getting the Treason, it's almost exclusively a carebear ship with no pvp relevance when Buccs sail it, and there is no reason to think it would be any different if sailed by a CT.

However, in the interests of preserving some sort of class individuality, CT is a frigate class, and there is no reason to give them a 3rd rate any more than the Priv should have one. So, if you want a Treason that badly, get leveling your Bucc

This would be like me continuing to argue we N.O.'s "deserve" a better (larger cargo carrying) ship once they nerfed the Mace...... silly and pointless in regards play balance.....

If that is the case just start a Bucc and level that AVATAR Mr Barbosa. Im doing it my self currently. Its a pain to do, so Im taking my sweet time. In the mean time until my bucc hits 50 I use my bucc for econ. For once in my carreer as a POTBS player Im getting really into econ, Im suprizily enjoying it. Thats one of the cool things about the Bucc, its a pretty nasty CHR class for Shipcom, and you have almost as much econ freedom as an FT minus a few strutures that you can build. Its a pretty sweet deal, and I wish I did it earlier. On a temp basis I did the smuggler tree on mine, basicly I can build struture anywhere and shop at any AH, without worrying about rep. Thats a huge perk, of having a bucc class as well.

Buccs are a Rad CHR class! Even post nerf!

Does that include the "Interceptor" Sloop and "Mississippi Co Indiaman"? Just curious...

Okies, can my FT get a Hyperion plox?

A cutthroat is someone who cuts throats.

Buccaneers made cured meat from animals they shot with long muskets.

Pirates were people who stole stuff at sea.

If nautical people didn't have a compulsion to have their own name for everything so most people can't understand them they would be called thieves.

Wonder how quick you could get an already nimble pherc to turn with a buc skillset?
