How to Unlock Sailing & What is Sailing

As you progress through the game from the Artemis to the East luterra, you get access to sailing. The main storyline itself will give you a quest about it in which you have to do sailing so you don’t have to worry about unlocking it the other way.

You’ll get this quest when you’ll reach level 35/36 at the Wavestrand Port in East Luterra. After this quest, you’ll be able to sail into the newer continents as you level up. Sailing is a requirement for sailing because you cannot fast travel through different continents, you can only fast travel in this game within the same continent. So, you have to do sailing in order to get to other continents.

Sailors

Sailing in this game is not simple as it looks, the devs have created this system a bit more interesting so you could actually spend some time into it. The first thing when you access your harbor, you’ll see Manage Sailor. Over the course of the game, you can unlock different sailors that have different abilities.

The exploration of the ocean will become easier to navigate due to these upgrades. Your ship will take less damage, you’ll move quicker, etc.

Currency

The currency for the sailing is the Pirate Coins. The different quests in the ocean and tasks will reward you with Pirate Coins. These Pirate Coins can be used to upgrade the different aspects of your ship.
