Conquest Chests

I keep getting the "Dead Eye Destroyers" crew in the conquest chests. I feel like this crew needs to be removed from the conquest chest. For one, it's not a good crew that someone would use for attacking bases, like at all. This is pretty evident in that I've never seen a single person use this crew when hitting my base. And second, there are no details on this crew. It just says, "Deal critical damage with most weapon types". Ok, which weapon types? How much critical damage? Is it critical damage with every volley or just sometimes? Kix needs to remove this crew from the chest so it increases the chances of getting a better crew out of it.

    FYI, when it says "critical damage", unless a specific percentage is mentioned, it means +100%. So if a regular projectile would do 10,000 a crit will do 20,000. There are better crews, but it's far from useless.

    I misread the crew description and dismissed the bottom text as a "favored ship" section. I totally get that's it's not entirely useless but my point is it's pointless to have it in the conquest chest because no one uses it to hit bases. Not one single person has used this crew to hit my base since I've been back playing the last year and a half. It might have been good back in the day but now it's probably only good for smaller events now. It's only a 15% chance of critical hits. So it shouldn't be in the Conquest Chest. Grungy Gunners, Junkyard Dogs, Demo Squad, Creeping Death, Skullduggery, Sea Serpents, etc. I get being in there but not the Dead Eye Destroyers. My point is, if I'm going to put the time, money and energy into camps to get these chests, the crews need to be more worthwhile.

    I've been using my plethora of conquest chests this week as didn't want to roll for crews.  At one point I picked up 3 Demo squads in a row after getting a deadeye destroyer, sea serpent x2, and 2 creeping death.   Sometimes just need patience as eventually something useful to you will land in your Great Hall.  Skullduggery would be great to add to that chest as I've only rolled 1 in 11.5 years of playing.

    I've got some DoS crews I'd be glad to give away, pity I can't



    There's a few other Demo Squad crews there, I'm sure someone would pay me a coin apiece for them lol
