Our Main Mobbing Skill amp Bossing Skill

So, post-RED, what skills should I be using for what?

Single Target: I'm trying to decide between Rapid Fire, Headshot and Battleship Bomber. I have all the relevant Hyper Skills for Rapid Fire which also buffs Battleship Bomber and all the relevant Hyper Skills for Rapid Fire (including 0 CD!) but I don't know which is best.

Multi-Target: Trying to decide between Fusillade (ELE) and Battleship Bomber. Something tells me Bomber is better on multitarget bosses but my primary concern is about NORMAL mobs (HoH, SH, Twilight Perion).

Does anyone know if the buff applied from Crew Commandship (+30~45 Wep. ATK) applies PER summon so summoning 2 different pirates would give +90 Wep. Atk in total and once one disappears, say from Seduce, it would bring us down to 45?

And my next question is with regard to the new effect that Pirates disappear after taking buffs. What I've noticed is that your Crew can absorb ANY status abnormality: Poison, Curse, Seal, Seduce, Stun but will only DISAPPEAR after absorbing what is considered a "fatal" status abnormality: Seduce and Stun. Not sure if it works on Crimson Queen's mirror but can anyone confirm any of the status stuff related to Crew members?

[quote=FlamyHeavens]@Powerpunche: ?
You around like 6 points for skill hypers
You get one every 10 levels?
The basic set for skill hypers for me is All HS Hypers, Rapid Fire Boss % & % increase and either Saving Grace or increase 4,5,6 dice hyper
I dunno what you mean but this may help [url=http://orangemushroom.files.wordpress.com/2012/08/hyper-skill-sp1.gif][/url]

[quote=KamikazeDes]Only every 5th bomb has 100%, but every hit has the 40%PDR. And yes, it has higher DPM than HS in sheer numbers. Still though, both have their uses on different bosses.[/quote]

[quote=lilninja45]iirc. BSB has 100% crit and % PDR on bosses. Also, does BSB have higher dpm/s than HS (Assume no CD)?[/quote]

[quote=geovanny7]i cant tell the diff between headshot/bomber in terms of 1v1. they feel the same/ maybe slighty in favor of headshot[/quote]
ATM I find HS alot better thank BSB in damage
However down to the numbers if you can achieve 100% crit and are pretty funded BSB is better
It's personal preference on which move on which boss
For me e.g. bosses with DR I'd use HS so you won't accidentally uncast BSB but the bombs are still headed towards DR'd target and get killed by the DR because even you stopped attack the bombs are still there.
In short HS if you require ALOT of moving around e.g. Gollux & Vellum to dodge and re position/ opponents at DR while BSB for stationary non DR bosses that don't require too much dodging/ repositioning
