Ships

Crafting in the current stage of Naval Actions involves gathering resources to construct ships. Certain ships construction need unique components, with differing amounts of resources needed in each ships crafting recipe. Resources can be difficult to attain for each ships recipe, and can be time consuming to retain. Ships recipes randomly drop either when crafting ships, or when breaking up a ship (which can also give crafting resources).

ShipCraftingPath

Crafting Notes are typically made from acquiring gold and combining it with coal to create gold ingots. These ingots are then crafted into gold coins, which are used with coal to craft (or buy) Crafting Notes. Crafting Notes are also dropped randomly when breaking up a ship for parts.

The quality of the built-in upgrades of ships depends on how many crafting notes you include in the recipe. The resulting handling of ship also depends on whether the wood used is fir, teak, oak, or live oak (live oak being the slowest but strongest, with fir the fastest but weakest).

Ships also require certain crafting levels and the more Crafting Notes that are put into a ship, the higher the crafting level is needed to complete that ship. Crafting level is improved through the experience attained while crafting parts, modules, and ships.

To the right you can also see the Naval Action Crafting tree, the blue ones are default and the red ones are non default ones, so those you need to acquire the blue print for.

Modules

Crafting modules work similar to crafting ships. You need to first acquire resources to make the module, and then by applying crafting notes to the recipe you can improve their overall quality. The quality of the finished module you can make depends on the players crafting level. There are also modules within the game that cannot be crafted, instead only recovered from other ships after battle.
