Fastest Ship?

Recommended Posts

Does anybody know for "fact" what is the fastest ship and what sail configuration to make it so?

Are their any charts or videos from testing?

Speed/configuration rankings?

Thanks,

I believe the galleon is the fastest with 6large speed sails and no guns, or additional structure.  The Brigantine is the fastest when loaded with guns in gunports and 10 shots per gun and crew.

The schooner and galleon with max speed sail configurations have the same base speed. 

The galleon wins out because of how weight affects speed. Its much easier to have a galleon under 1/2 weight than a schooner.

If you go just off base ships. The schooner and gally are the same speed followed by the brig the sloop. Gally is the fastest ship at level 41 with all weight put into it. Can’t catch it unless you have 130 sales on a schooner

You can start here:

He has other good ones too.

His testing was done on a privat server but should carry over.

I just start testing with ~ showdebug physics (reset for cancel), where u get a speed value form the game. It is fine for landbased observation. On sea u have more parameter to deal with, like diff Wind strenght and direction, does waves impact shipspeed?

It is just hard doing it solo, because it seems u are unable to steer with this enabled (u can run/mout etc. tho), not good when running into 6 SotD 🙂

Maybe others can help with this?

just to clarify here but the quality of sail absolutely does not affect TOP SPEED. Waves might affect top speed but they coincide with high winds so.. yeah.
