Sailing

Sailing in ArcheAge is not only fun and adventurous, but you can also find islands to claim, and even mobs to fight!

Unlike other games, there's no loading screen for the seas; however, first you'll need a ship. A clipper is recommended for beginners, unless you wish to rowboat all the way.

A clipper design (harpoon or not) is 50 Gilda Stars. You can easily get this amount after you finish the first main quest line (Falcorth Plains - Silent Forest). If you wish to aim higher, you'll need to put more effort into Gilda collecting.

Types of Ships
Please note: any faction can purchase these ships.

There are lots of ships in ArcheAge with pros and cons.
