Retraining a high point Captain.

[BUNNYHUGGERI]

I tried the search and did not find this one.  Someone I know said they REtrained a 13 point captain and it RESET the skill points to 10.  Is he correct.  If so I need to make damn sure my 10 point guys are in the boat they will be driving forever.

 

P.S.  I played this a year or more ago and found it rather dull compared to tanks.  I am really enjoying it now.  I really suck at it though.

You may want to clarify your friend's statement.  After retraining on another ship, you will still have the same skills & skill points after retraining.  What your friend may have meant is that he also redistributed the skill points to better tailor the captain for the new ship - the new ship may not have had a desirable 3 point skill before he wanted a more desirable 4 point one - so your friend may have 13 available points of which only 10 have been allocated and used by the captain on the new ship, hence he effectively has a 10 pt. Captain w/ 3 points unallocated to a skill.

Yep...read it....just only have one commander with 11 points...waiting for the British BB's to put him in.  He is my Gallant driver right now.

Pay Money - commander ready to go on next ship, no change to skills or points. Also, if you reset, skill wiped, but exact same amount of points and XP. I've done it many times with no problems.

I have retrained 10 pt captains before but nothing above that. so I don't know. my clan people say that the captain keeps all of his points because they have retrained 15 point or more captains.

Captains do NOT lose skills ever except during the big overhaul a while back because said overhaul changed the EXP function so some gained a skill point while some lost some.

However retraining high-point captains is costly, EXP wise. If you move a 19pt captain, you better be ready to shell out those Dubloons. Which is fair, since we DON'T want craplike Langley Admirals.
