I love high seas, ships and cannons. What I don't love is when it comes time to restock the fuse cord supply. I typically make 4000-5000 at a time rather than spreading the pain out over smaller bunches of them. It takes way to much time! I don't mind mining the salt peter and really don't mind making the actual black powder. But as I am doing now.......... Making potash and have been for the last 3 hours and probably have another 3 hours to go..... The Devs could throw us a bone and make Potash the same as charcoal where one click turns the whole pile of boards in the pack into a pile of potash! That would eliminate 1/3 of this time sink that serves no purpose other than to waste time. On the bright side I only have to do this once per month give or take. I really hope this is something they look at if and when the alleged high seas 2.0 goes into play.
Saltpeter is fine the way it is, you can pay the stupid high price for it or mine it actually fairly fast. It would be nice if they would stock it on the NPC on Siege the same as prodo though.
But seriously I would much rather spend my time wasted making potash on the water actually firing my cannons than standing next to a trough and oven for hours getting ready to fire my cannons!
