[h2]Let's talk about CREW![/h2]
Last time I reviewed the boats available in the alpha. Today I would love to turn the spotlight onto one of the key parts of Nautical Survival:
THE CREW! From fearless explorers to expert combatants, and even the adorable (yet vicious) Otter, each crew member brings a unique skillset that can shift the tides in your favor.
- Biologist - A menace against marine life, with added knockback to keep enemies at bay.
- Deckhand - The all-arounder, improving many stats and expands cargo capacity.
- Fisherman - Snags coins easily, excels at taking down bosses and elites
- Gunner - Firepower expert favoring guns, slows enemies for a tactical edge.
- Mechanic - Boosts hull durability and tech weapons, dealing big damage on collision.
- Merchant - Cuts costs for buildings, crew and weapons, boosts delivery earnings.
- Navigator - Spots enemies early, extends range, and improves handling for precision.
- Otter - An adorable high-risk, high-reward mascot which thrives in the dark.
- Racer - The evasive speed demon that enjoys racing and provides extra promotions.
- Raider - Explosives expert, expands blast range, adds lasting damage on each hit.
