Tactical Advantage: Torn Sails Reduction

While the Hullbreaker’s ramming power is Skull and Bones Silver already formidable, it also boasts an additional advantage in its secondary perk: an 80% reduction in the duration of the Torn Sails effect. Torn Sails is a tactic commonly used by enemy vessels to slow down the movement of their targets, but the Hullbreaker’s reinforced construction allows it to shrug off this debuff far more effectively than other ships.

This perk provides a massive tactical advantage, especially in prolonged engagements. While other ships may be hampered by a slower pace and forced into a defensive position, the Hullbreaker maintains its momentum, ensuring that it can continue to ram with devastating effectiveness. This advantage makes the Hullbreaker particularly lethal in battles where sustained aggression is key to victory.
Strategic Impact: Flooding Effect

In addition to the sheer power of its ramming, the Hullbreaker also introduces the Flooding effect, which deals gradual damage over time and slows the target’s movement speed. This effect is especially potent in longer engagements, where the Hullbreaker’s ability to keep delivering damage can wear down enemy ships before they have a chance to retaliate effectively.

The Flooding effect doesn’t just cause immediate damage; it forces the enemy to deal with the gradual erosion of their ship’s health, making it harder for them to escape. In combination with the Hullbreaker’s ramming power and Torn Sails reduction, the Flooding effect creates a perfect storm of pressure that forces opponents into a losing position.

Acquisition and Crafting

For those who wish to wield the fury of the Hullbreaker, obtaining the blueprint is the first step. To craft the ship, captains must venture to the Ruined Lighthouse in the East Indies — an area teeming with danger and ruin. The blueprint for the Hullbreaker is available in exchange for 15,840 Silver, but only skull and bones boosting service after earning the rank of Cutthroat.
