SailingProgression
Level Sailing together to improve boat speed and hull endurance. Equal XP for passengers and helmsmen, with an adjustable XP multiplier.Sailing Progression
Level up Sailing while travelling by boat. The helmsman and passengers earn the same XP. You must actually be aboard: players on land or docks receive none. Stationary boats give no XP. Passengers still earn XP when nobody holds the helm, provided the boat continues travelling with propulsion engaged.
- Sailing speed: approximately +30% at level 50 and +40% at level 100. Gain 0.6 percentage points per level up to 50, then 0.2 per level up to 100.
- Hull endurance: +0.3% per level, allowing the boat to withstand up to 30% more damage at level 100.
- The helmsman's skill determines the boat's bonuses while controlling the helm. Bonuses do not stack between players or repair the boat.
- Sailing XP Multiplier: server-controlled, adjustable from 1 to 10. Default: 1. Changes XP only.
- Your Sailing level saves with your character. Maximum level: 100.
Wind and waves still affect speed. The speed bonus applies to sails, not rowing.
