Like one is a teak with wo/wo planking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is the case I will build a load of cheap wood ships on Global before the transfer and then on redeeming make them what I want. They can make redeemables to match whatever you have. Not all redeemables give free choice of woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a lot of information being given out by people based on their interpretation of the Devs statements which is wrong and this really needs to be clarified, and I wish people would not fill in the blanks themselves.

Really no reason why you can’t get started on the new server already though. See that is the rub. I can start on the new server with nothing and grind up to a million or so or... I can grind with my existing character, existing trade routes and crafting goods and build for the merge. I don't see any value in playing an hour for a hundred thousand when I can earn millions in that same hour up to the actual merge. Just give me some heads up so I can get ready for it in time. It does me zero good to grind exp on the new server since I am max in rank and crafting. After the merge, I'll be in my best ships and ready to go. I have buds who are moving over (I hope) so we will clan up together. The new port battle scheme is not in place so doing hostility is useless. My plan is to land with a full port of solid ships, enough cash to build my crafting network quickly and if crafting goods move, I'll be set up in hours to make what I need. That's best done where I am already set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please pay attention to the important announcement regarding the pvp servers @admin can I suggest that, for threads like this, you update the opening post after clarifying any issue in the thread. This will keep all relevant up-to-date information in the first post. It will also avoid a lazy b@stard like me, trying to understand the latest position, not having to read 25 pages of : - repeat questions - disparaging dross / sycophantic licking - poor/wrong answers given by the unauthorised - 'see earlier' posts - irrelevant dross - off topic posts (like this one) Buster (#SanityPreservationSociety) Edited December 14, 2017 by Busterbloodvessel 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then there's the ship knowledge "planking". No, teak is the framing and it has two sets of planking. There are a rare few of those ships on both servers. I have collected several. They come from having an old style redeemable used in the new system. So if your redeemables were hoarded from earlier, you can get stacked planking.

Yngvarr Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I believe there was a time where you had ships with Wood + planking, and then a trim extra, like speed or turning or crew space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ink Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 You will have the option to choose the frame and planking wood by yourself. Thus current ships with 3 wood types on PVP Global (it happened to all head start after wipe ships that were redeemed after we implemented the option to choose wood types by players themselves) will be transformed to general ships with 2 wood types which you will be able to choose.

I'm kicking myself now cause I just gave away a bunch of L'Oceans I captured since wipe in Port Battles cause they weren't builds I would us. Now I wish I keep them for the mods on them and to redeem them the way I would us them...lol That is my luck like my curse of RNG that never drops anything other than Boatswain books when I loot them.
