11. Offloading Materials

Your ship's cargo hold has limited slots despite holding thousands of Skull and Bones Items kilograms. Manage your space by offloading excess materials at Pirate Dens or caches in outposts. This frees up room for loot and other resources during your adventures.
12. Check Trade Routes

The world map shows where to find crafting materials. Instead of buying limited supplies from settlements, check trade routes for ships transporting materials. Scan and attack these ships to save money and earn extra silver.
13. Don’t Fire Near Settlements

Avoid firing near settlements unless you plan to plunder them. Guard towers and nearby ships will retaliate if you fire at anything, including the water. To gain faction materials, attack ships near settlements without initiating plunder to cheap Skull and Bones Items earn more silver and resources.
