Season 2 of Skull and Bones is officially underway, and with the Mud Hunter season in full swing Skull and Bones Items, it's time to break down everything worth knowing.Whether you're sailing solo or commanding a squad, here's your one-stop guide to what's new, what's hot, and what you shouldn't sleep on this season.

Season 2's Must-Haves

Over in Telok Penjara, stocking some heavy-hitting gear this season. The theme is clear: explosions, defense, and siege upgrades. Here's what caught our eye:

Top Picks:

 Nova Armor-This piece triggers a massive explosion (3,500 damage in a 100m radius) every time you're hit while bracing. It's got a 10-second cooldown, but in PvE especially, this makes you a walking powder keg.

 Ammo Priming Bench-Minor furniture that boosts siege damage by 20% and repairs by 18%. Crucial for endgame ship builds focused on long fights or fort takedowns.

 Roaring Mess Demolition Weapon-The star of the shop. This cannon deals 300% more damage to structures, has 50% more damage to weak points, and causes a 30m precision blast. In one word: devastating.

 Storm Vigil Rockets-These launch 60 rockets over time, and convert 50% of flooding damage into severe damage. Perfect for controlling enemy ships mid-combat.

Other Standouts:

 Royal Sentinel Spring Loader-Applies shell shock and 20% bonus explosive damage to all targets. Great for stopping NPCs or smaller ships in their tracks.

 Harrow Guard Armor-Focused on mitigating puncture status effects and offers high pierce resistance-ideal if you're tanking fights.

Utility & Crafting Reset-What's Worth Grabbing?

Each reset brings fresh opportunities, and this week's utility items are no joke. Here are some solid picks:

 Machinist Table Repair-Increases repair amount by 25%, making your repair crews significantly more effective in drawn-out battles.

 Brace Gun Whales-These offer defensive buffs while bracing, though many are replacing them with utility furniture like the Ammo Priming Bench for more aggressive builds.

 Spike Station-Adds a 40% chance to reduce all repair effects on a target when hitting a weak point. Niche but situationally powerful in PvP.

 Company Screens-Reduces incoming AoE damage-but only from ships, not forts. Great for ship-based fleet battles.

Also worth noting: Deep Iron is now purchasable with Guild Marks, which makes gearing up even more accessible.

There's also the looming threat of the new boss Mudang, which many players already find frustrating and tanky. Make sure you're running top-tier siege weapons if you plan to go head-to-head with this threat.

Blueprint Bonanza-New Ships and Upgrades

If you're hoarding Guild Marks or Pieces of Eight, now is a great time to check out the blueprint rotation:

 New Ships: The Guda, Battle Junk, Brig, Bark, and even the Schooner are all available. Whether you're upgrading or experimenting with ship styles, there's a lot to test.

 Refined Crafting Plates: These are critical for certain builds, and while still slightly confusing to track down, they've been confirmed to be in the refined materials section.Yanara's Store: Anything New?

Yanara's shop has most of the usual offerings, but here's what's worth checking:

 Tuning Station 1-Ideal for torpedo builds. This bench gives some excellent control over loadouts and burst-damage configurations.

 Dardel Guns Blueprint-Available for 7,000 silver, a staple for mid-tier ship builds.

 Ascended Cache and Legacy Cache-If you've got Sovereigns or Pieces of Eight burning a hole in your pocket, use them here for a shot at high-tier rewards.

 Leper and Picare Blueprints-Helpful for completionists or those working toward full ship collections.

 Yanara's shop hasn't seen huge changes, but the utility items and blueprints available still make it worth a stop each reset.

Pro Tips and Final Thoughts

 Prioritize the Ammo Priming Bench-It's too good for both siege and repair scaling, especially in fort content or boss fights.

 Try the Roaring Mess-For players focused on demolition builds or PvE content, this weapon can delete structures and enemy ships alike.

 Check the Reset Weekly-Many upgrades rotate in and out, and it's easy to miss key items like the Machinist Table or unique weapons.

 Guild Marks = Power-Deep Iron and other high-tier mats are now easier to obtain, so be sure to run guild contracts regularly.
