[Batleth]

Sporting flames and scorching enemies with special firebrand broadsides, this Level 4 ship upgrade sizzles with speed.

Your choices make the difference as you move along the upgrade path toward any Level 4 upgrade like the Firestorm. Follow the Streamline upgrade path to achieve the Firestorm ship.
You may also get this heated hull by following the Cargo upgrade path, then choosing Firestorm as your Level 4 upgrade:

Seek fabric and wood materials for this upgrade, plundered by sinking Bounty Hunters and enemy Warships.
Bounty Hunters can carry regular materials such as pine, canvas, and iron. Warships can carry any material including the rare oak, silk, and steel materials.

You must sink Bounty Hunters that are specifically targeting your ship for the chance to plunder their materials.

NOTE: Ship upgrades cannot be combined as you move from one upgrade to the next.
When weighing yer upgrade options at the Shipwright, the attributes you stand to increase by choosing a particular upgrade are shown in green. The attributes that will decrease should you choose that upgrade are marked red.
Your ship’s current attributes will change if you choose to downgrade to a previous step in the upgrade path.
