Before I dump all of my saved cannon points into torp, are there any good training areas anyone has in mind for a torp first build? I was thinking maybe somewhere in ToT, but I've only made it up to the ice portion of that so far. The mobs don't really form around me so much that I'd be constantly getting hit, so I shouldn't have too much trouble keeping my boat alive.
Someone suggested Skeles, but I believe it's way too early for me to head there since I'm only 130 and have about 4.1k HP.
I was told I'd do okay there with max torp, since I'd be freezing them and torping anyway. The only problem I'd have would be the fact that Ice Splitter doesn't reach as far as torp (yet) so I may end up hitting a skele too far to freeze. At a higher level that may not be a problem since I'd be able to tank more hits, but at 130 my boat would probably like 4 hits or so before breaking, so that'd suck.
In any case, I haven't dumped my points yet, but if anyone can give me a training area where I can fully use torp, then I'll get started on torp and try it out.
I just don't know how I'd feel about maxing torp and then just staying at Newties. It'd be faster than bust fire training, but I'm a bit hesitant to put points into torp just to stay at the same area.
