    Trying to get out of the 1000-1100 range, and it seems like progression has slowed to a snails pace. All of my matches are now just sugar-production instead of infamy, since I can't upgrade my Enforcer to 3 until I hit 17, which is taking a while due to all of the time walls. Upgraded Shooter to 3 in the meantime, but using all uncommon weapons since most of my rare finds have been blues and yellows. Having a hard time leveling the uncommons since boxes don't want to drop duplicates for any weapons I actually want to use. Carronades, ballparks, and missiles are not going on my loadout at this level. Of the rares I have, I'm hesitant to level them because if I spend the sugar on them I can't upgrade my crew.

    I have a small stockpile of pearls, about 1300, saved up but not sure what to spend them on. I was going to save them up to buy the 3900 crate, but after getting mostly garbage from the free premium crates I've gotten so far, I'm not so sure. 3900 for what will probably be a blue legendary piece, nine rare Mines, and some Epic Lube no longer sounds appealing. A single Epic of my choice also costs 3000, which isn't worth it at all. I could level a little faster if I spent them on Crew skips, but I don't know if that would be more beneficial than sugar and premium chests to fill out my arsenal.

    I'm in the same boat (no pun intended). It's because we have "outskilled" our infamy levels. Too high of infamy, and we go against setups far superior that we can't compete in. Too low, and we win easily.

    Because we can't purchase new weapons or boats easily, we are in essence stuck until we unlock further things. Too bad you can't unlock things by winning.

    Spend your pearls on crew training definitely. I dont pay to play this game, have been playing a little more than a week and have mk3 at lvl 17. Crew training gets you to the level you need to be. Cant buy time in the game, only through pearls. The only other thing i would save some pearls to the side for is upgrading parts, but you can get that by playing and purchasing in the shop. (mk3 fixer at 1400 infamy)
    Good luck!

    IMO, for fast early progression you should use to skip crew training time. If you're playing the long game, definitely save for the 3900 pearl box. Yes, results of this box may not be apparent immediately but the total accumulation of resources is what you need to level your weapons to a competitive level at higher tiers of infamy and the 3900 boxes are the best way to do that.
