    Isak, grenade guy:
    +10 damage or 5% damage

    ???? Wut? Why would you EVER choose +10 damage? 5% is ALWAYS going to be more, unless I'm missing something. Please help me connect the dots.

    There's a bunch of upgrades like that. They're usually a little less obvious, for example the 2% area-damage or +15 damage on one of Mortimer's choices. Grenade damage starts off high, though, so unless you're using a Common, 5% is basically always better.

    Remember, though, that flat damage buffs like the +10 are added to the base damage, not the final. Not that it matters in this instance, but you might want to keep it in mind after stacking enough percentage buffs.

    It is for retraining. Percentile increase is horrible at low levels, but makes sense at a higher level. Did y'all know you can retrain MULTIPLE perks at a time, if they belong to the same crew member? Just sayin'. Helped me a lot.

    Well, a lvl 1 rare does 187 damage, 5% out of that is 9,35. So at least with an uncommon +10 might be better in the early stages :)

    What exactly do you mean and how do you do it? Are you saying if I want to retrain 5 of bhurts skills I can do them all at once? Basically I can stack all 5 and do it 5 hours? If so how do you do that because i couldn't get it to work?

    When retraining, you can just double-tap on the skill you wish to change to. Before clicking the confirm button, just scroll up or down the list and you can double-tap other skills. It adds 1 hour to the timer for each one.

    Yo, thanks for the comments, guys. I happened to notice the wordplay in the training screen. "Choose which skills you want to retrain". So I thought that Rovio wouldn't refer to them in plural if not for a special case.
    Yeah, good advice.
    That said, Admins, if you could pass on to the devs that they should add the multiple perks tip in loading screens later, it would really help.
