Give you access to better equipment

buy azuga gold is the most important skills which is needed for bigger Battleships and finally, structure is needed to upgrade merchant ships.

In order to upgrade your ship, you will need to train its 3 basic skills, Maneuverability, Military Equipment and Structure. You can upgrade maneuverability by sailing around, but mostly by discovering things. You can do this by obtaining quest of the Adventurers Guild or by coming by a sparkling spot. By discovering here you will gain an item that proofs the discovery. You can later show this evidence to an Authenticator and gain some reputation and money. Military equipment is improved by battling. By damaging other ships in battle, your XP will go up and your stunt points will give you access to better cannons or equipment like fire shooters, grapple hooks and rams. I will list two popular cannon types here. First there is the Howitzer. This class of cannons has good damage and good range, but reloads slower and has a lesser firing arc. The Buckshot class of cannons has the biggest firing arc and reloads faster, but has less range and damage. Structure is upgraded by completing Merchant Guild quests and selling trader items with a profit. Marble and oranges I noticed make a good profit.

In order to wield a certain kind of weapon, you will need to learn its respective skill. You can choose from sword playing, falchion-playing, axe playing and shooting. When learning the chosen skill you will get the weapon from the skill master. A good place to start is Athens, because its suburbs have low level monsters that do not hurt you too much. Immediately you are going to higher level cities and dying at the fangs of a wolf lord can not be too much after all. Watch out that dying does also lower your reputation.
