Merchant Schooner

The merchant vessel is a ship that which is near harmless but very useful. Being the only High capacity ship in game, it is a popular if expensive vessel to make. Construction requires, , , and. also now needs Merchant Schooner Materials to place the dry dock. The normal speed is roughly 10 meters a second.

This type of ship is common prey for any pirate who can either detect it or see it. Being a largely useless combat vessel, it is wise to travel in convoys to protect the precious cargo that may be on board. As to explain the cargo capacity, it can store up to 20 trade packs at any given time, but when/if sunk, pirates can loot the packs from the sunken ship to claim as their own.

This vessel is not recommended for any player that is not part of a large guild or often operates solo, as material costs are quite high and profits are... at best not that great, rarely exceeding the costs of obtaining the material in the first place. Again, pirates but sea creatures cause this to be a vessel that is very, very weak. Poor health does nothing to help this vessel whatsoever. It is advised to be either a very high level player or have higher level players you can trust help escort your ship to its intended destination.
