You can buy the Sailboat/Frigate ship Registration on the central market.
If you don’t want to buy the registration, skip to the next section.
– Ship License: Epheria Frigate – 1,400,000,000*
– Ship License: Epheria Sailboat – 484,000,000*
current market value as of 12/11/2020
As you can see the Frigate license is more expensive.
Since it is the superior of the two ships.
This is because it has the best potential for Sea Monster Hunting (SMH).
Since Frigate has x4 cannons, whereas Sailboat only has x2.
If you don’t want to buy the registration, skip to the next section.
Time Required: Min. 25 days
CP Required: 9 CP First, you need to purchase the “Shipyard” 3-5, 2F in Epheria.
This will cost you 9CP. This is where you will actually craft the ship of your choice.
Unlike most production workshops ships are not crafted in one go.
They are processed by adding 1 item at a time. So you need A L O T of workers on this task to make it complete fast.
You can hire workers in Epheria, as well as connect your nodes to other cities to have workers from other cities work on your ship registration.
You can go up to the Helpful Tools section to use the “Ship Upgrade Tracker” to see the materials you need.
Most materials can be bought easily on the central market, as well as collected by workers.
NOTE: I recently made a Frigate, buying all materials from the CM and processing them myself. I spent less than half the cost of just buying the registration.
So you can save A LOT of money making it yourself if you don’t mind the wait.
Next, you need to have 25 “Design: Epheria Frigate” or “Design: Epheria Sailboat”.
This is why it is a min of 25 days to make a Frigate/Sailboat.
You can get these designs by completing a daily in Epheria.
Quest: [Daily] Falasi Family’s Kindness
NPC: Philaberto Falasi
Once you pick up the quest from Philaberto you will need to pick up one of the boxes next to him.
Then take the box to the Guild Wharf Manager in Epheria.
Put it down at his feet. Then Chat with him.
You will have to carry him x2 boxes.
Instead of taking the long way and walking all the way down there.
You can cheat off the side of the staircase leading down. (See .GIF below)
Recommendations Have your workers process the other items needed for your ship while you do dailies.
Do not wait until the last minute to have workers start processing.
IMO, you are only wasting materials upgrading to improved.
There is
NO STAT CHANGEbetween the base Sailboat/Frigate and its improved version.
The only difference is the “Volley” skill. Which takes away your player controlled cannons and allows for captain control. (I.E – Only driver can shoot cannons.)
Instead: Ask your guild, sailing discord, or the Dancing Marlin Chat group in the game for help.
Once you have your Sailboat/Frigate the next step is to upgrade to Caravel/Galleass.
This is your last upgrade before carrack!!
Note: Remember to use the “Ship Upgrade Tracker” for materials needed.
It will tell you how to obtain each item, and all ways to obtain the item.
All of the materials needed for these ships are from Sailing Dailies, Bartering, and a few items are purchased via NPC.
You will need to buy the “Ship Upgrade Permit” from Philaberto in Epheria.
– Sailboat > Caravel = Ship Upgrade Permit: Epheria Caravel – 400,000,000 ea
– Frigate > Galleass = Ship Upgrade Permit: Epheria Galeass – 400,000,000 ea
You will need to also buy the “Old” set of gear.
– Old Prow – 3,500,000 ea
– Old Plating – 4,000,000 ea
– Old Cannon – 3,500,000 ea
– Old Sail – 3,000,000 ea
You must get all of the “Old” gear to +10, using Verdant Blackstones.
Once you get the gear to +10, it must also have full 100/100 max dura.
How to Get “Verdant Blackstones”
– Trade T1 barter items (1:1) with Ravina at the docks in Epheria/Velia/Iliya. (*See Photo below)
– Kill Hungry Hekaru/Stalker (RNG Drop, also drops sea monster ooze)
– Kill Hekaru/Stalker (RNG Drop) (edited)
NOTE: You can get 50% of the materials needed for the upgrade by completing 7 days worth of quests from Ravina at Crows Nest.
(Only the Crows Nest Ravina has the quests.)
Now that you have your Caravel/Galleass it’s time for the carrack grind!
Note: Remember to use the “Ship Upgrade Tracker” for materials needed.
It will tell you how to obtain each item, and all ways to obtian the item.
All of the materials needed for these ships are from Sailing Dailies, Bartering, Sea Monster Hunting, and a few items are purchased via NPC.
Most of the materials are easy enough to get while you do your sailing dailies and barter, except for “Brilliants”.
The “Brilliant Rock Salt Ingot” and “Brilliant Pearl Shard” are unlocked via your total barter count.
Once you have hit the required count, you will be able to start getting brilliants from bartering!
Material Rolls – 3000 Barters
Trade Rolls – 5000 Barters
Note: The only alternative ways to get Brilliants outside of unlocking via barter is to SMH for Candidum/Nineshark/Black Rust.
Note: You can also fish for Tears of the Ocean from Oquilla’s Eye and Papu Crinea (small center island near the 1000 year war).
