Check Trade Routes
For crafting materials, explore trade routes marked by Skull and Bones Items dotted lines on the world map. Intercept merchant ships to acquire rare resources and save Silver. This strategy also provides additional opportunities for plunder.
Don’t Fire Near Settlements
Avoid engaging in combat near settlements to prevent retaliation from guard towers and nearby ships. If you must gather materials from factions, attack ships near settlements without initiating a full-scale Plunder. Destroying faction ships outside of Plunder drops Silver and materials, and dealing with reinforcements yields more rewards.
Respawn Options
After your ship sinks, you can respawn on the water or at an outpost. Respawning at an outpost, though Skull and bones items for sale cheap costlier, prevents permanent ship damage. Weigh the benefits based on the situation and choose the best option to continue your adventure.
