Best ways to farm Silver in Skull and Bones

There are two easy ways to farm Silver in Skull and Bones. These are to destroy enemy ships along trade routes and sell the commodities. Let's break down why these are the best methods of gathering this currency in the game.

Destroy enemy ships for Silver

Trade ships often carry a few hundred Silver on them. While you can get hundreds of Silver by completing contracts, you won't get nearly as much as you will from destroying ships along trade routes. There are multiple trade routes around the map, target areas where there are a large number of them. This way, you can also gather materials and commodities.

When you attack trade routes, you will typically get hundreds of Silver per minute you are out there. The more of a ruckus you cause, the more ships will come looking for you. This will further increase the amount of the currency you will get. Just be sure to always have repair hits on you. We also suggest you avoid the open seas as this area can be more difficult to maneuver and attack other ships in.

Sell your commodities to the highest bidder

Sinking ships will get you plenty of currency but you will get more by selling off the commodities that you get from the ships you sink. Commodities are items that are worth a fair amount of coin and trade route ships are typically carrying a lot of them. Items like Uncut Diamonds, Uncut Garnets, Spices, Snuff, and Ivory are all considered high-value items.

Bring these items to the local commodities trader at Sainte-Anne or Telok Penjarah and you will be rolling in Silver. We typically get close to 10,000 Silver each time we make a run and sell off our goods.

Raid forts or plunder settlements

There are plenty of places out in the world of Skull and Bones and each one is ripe for plundering. Plundering these settlements and forts will get you a lot of Silver. The reason for this is that you will get materials and new items as rewards for plundering, but you will also get to destroy enemy ships, collecting commodities and Silver in the process.

That is everything you need to know about farming currency. Be sure to also check out where to find the manager at Pulka Buta in Skull and Bones. You can also check out our beginner's guide to Skull and Bones so you can be the best pirate out on the sea.
