Usage Patterns

This specialist is ideal for exploration and scouting ships. The massive +100% discovery radius bonus makes it excellent for revealing new areas of the map quickly. The combination of movement speed (+15%) and improved favourable wind angle (+45) ensures your exploration vessel can navigate efficiently in various wind conditions. The hitpoints bonus (+25%) provides additional survivability when venturing into unknown or hostile waters.

Common Pitfalls

  • This specialist requires a boost unlock condition of less than 5,000 fleet strength, which may conflict with military fleet-building strategies. Plan your fleet composition accordingly.
  • The effects only apply to the ship the captain is assigned to, not to your entire fleet.
  • Since it's a Captain slot item, it competes with combat-oriented captains; consider dedicating a specific exploration vessel for this specialist rather than using it on combat ships.
