Introduction to the Legendary Grape Cannon of the Age of Exploration How to Play with the Legendary Grape Cannon of the Age of Exploration

The introduction to the Grape Shot in the Age of Exploration. The Grape Shot is a level 9 cannon in the Age of Exploration. Since there are relatively few in-game guides and detailed explanations about cannons, how to choose the right cannons to match one's fleet has always been a major issue for many new players. Therefore, I will provide a detailed introduction and then recommend some popular level 9 cannons for players to choose from. Without further ado, let's take a look at these cannons.

The Grape Shot can directly inflict damage on sailors, causing 100% damage to them. Its characteristic is low firepower and short range. Although the lethality rate against sailors is 100%, the short range and low firepower are also disadvantages of the Grape Shot. However, it doesn't matter, as the Grape Shot is only used for close combat, especially during boarding actions, specifically to kill enemy sailors up close. Once the ship's durability is gone, the entire fleet will sink, which is also a way to defeat the enemy.

The use of the Grape Shot mainly occurs before boarding actions, so its two characteristics are very important: causing confusion and bombardment. Confusion can impose a debuff on enemy sailors, reducing their accuracy in firing, putting them at a disadvantage before entering melee combat. Bombardment increases the chance of inflicting damage, especially by potentially causing permanent death to enemy sailors, making it extremely lethal. Players who enjoy melee combat can equip this cannon.

It is recommended that players pair the Grape Shot with a suitable officer, specifically the Algerian pirate Ocanpos. When choosing Ocanpos as the gunner for your fleet, you do not need to unlock the third skill, as Ocanpos' third skill requires being used as the fleet's vice-captain. Therefore, there is no need to unlock the third skill; the first two skills are sufficient. Ocanpos is also suitable for players engaging in line battles and adventure melee combat. You can first use the Grape Shot to cause confusion and then engage in combat with bombardment, combined with Ocanpos' morale-boosting skill.

This concludes all the content about the Grape Shot in the Age of Exploration. In addition to the Grape Shot, players can also choose other level 9 cannons to equip their fleet, especially the Double Cannon and the Standard Cannon. These two cannons have extremely high damage and can be paired with the Grape Shot to inflict the highest possible damage.
