So, what would be the best heavy battle ship that has come out in the captains tickets so far? I'm thinking it would be maybe the CFCV or the Razee Frigate available now, but I may have missed a few. any thoughts?
May the winds blow you well

Neither the CFCV or the MRF are end game ESF or BC quality ships. They will do for now of course, but I am not spending ANY high end parts on the mods for them.
I am holding all the good parts that i have for something better. I tried doing a CFCV build on UWOTOOL and could not get a build I was happy with.
If I used the high end parts on it then had to re-buy them for the next ship it would cost me Billions that I don't have. :)
Which once are worth the billions?
Some want the row boats for crew to melee, some want the cannon ships for sniping or brawling.
I would expect the AFCV is not far off.
The Dragonship is actually a competitive end game PvP ship in the right role. It is fast and can hold its own. Great sniper ship.
If want u a ship to attack pirates and be likely to win, it won’t be fast. A decent pirate ship will be teak or equivalent but a BH ship will normally be metal plated.
To get max speed you become weaker and pvp and vice versa.
I have an MR set up for speed, it’s not rapid but quick enough, however it’s 900 dura and 40 armour, so I would last long against of battle rigged MR if it was to catch me.
There are also things to think about.
The MR RR have 270 crew after a refit, that’s with no mods. With mods can have over 300 so great for melee.
The others in the list have around 225 I think after a refit.
Agile la royal is apparently (sail wise) with correct mods the fastest row boat in the game. But it has to inherit EA skill so at g6 u can still only have su 1 2.
The LLM (which I am waiting for) has EA as optional so can grade 6 with su 1 2 3.
So the agile will have slightly more top speed but the LLM will have better accel.
Both with college skill speed boost and also 50% speed boost and high row skill will catch most traders if not all.
So I’d opt for the LLM and get the extra accel.
Out of the ships you list I’m happy with the MR as a ship to last me until the LLM comes out.
Hope that helps.
The LLM is one of the fastest ships in the game. In gama only a few people could outrun my LLM (Gazi was very fast).
Everyone can outrun my ALR in maris.
As for which rower is the best, that does depend on how you plan to use it. Melee, speed, PvP and such.
Any one of the current rowers are decent.
Enjoy the rowing skill grind.......
You will be slow until you hit r10-12 then you will start to notice the speed increase.
Downside of rowers is that you must always dedicate one of your active skills to rowing or you will be slow as fffk.
I’d be interested to see sail stats of ALR and LLM side by side after max speed mod and G6
