Those include your helm, wheel, artillery, figurehead, and more. Each has a different use, so choosing wisely depending on the mission you’re undertaking will be critical to your success.

The beta for Skull & Bones is coming soon, so make sure to register while you still can. For anything else E3, refer back to The Nerd Stash to see what you missed. Happy hunting, pirates.
