At the beginning you want to get navigation points fast. You should take deliver letter missions and deliver them to the city named in the mission within the time mentioned. For every letter delivered within time you get extra navigation points, so your navigation skill will rise faster. It also has another advantage, for every 3 Navigation levels you can take an additional mission and get even more points. After the first couple of jobs you get the feeling of which jobs are doable. There is a good route in the start area of every nation. It’s important the to do the jobs as fast as possible which means a fast ship (sloops) and sail in a straight line without any detours, cannon fights or fencing. The faster you get the job done the more navigation points you get. After you have finished the job put the money in the bank. | At the beginning you want to get navigation points fast.

After a while you will have enough navigation to use more/bigger ships, but until navigation level 16 you should use the sloop, because those are the fastest ships in the game and in the beginning running away from trouble is the only way too stay ‘alive’. When you get navigation level 16 (with/or without Mate) you can sail a Barque. In the beginning it’s important to sail with more than one ship, because you can easily lose a ship. The reasons for this could be overnav (taking a ship that | After a while you will have enough navigation to use more/bigger ships, but until navigation level 16 you should use the sloop, because those are the fastest ships in the game and in the beginning running away from trouble is the only way too stay ‘alive’.

The reasons for this could be overnav (taking a ship that give you more total navigation that you are able to handle), overloading your fleet with goods, cannons/ammo, crew etc. and of course from NPCs or players. | ||
After collecting navigation points and maybe finding a better mate, the beginner should get more ships. To do this there are different possibilities: Buy/build at the shipyard, take a ghostship, ask in nation for someone to give you one or fence one yourself. You may prefer to fence one on your own, because the fence skill increases that way. You have to pay attention to which ships you fence. Go for the nation ships and avoid the pirates, because they are too strong at the beginning. Before you go into fence you should target the enemy ship (press {{kbd|T}}) and only fence when the right most number is -2 or -3, with -3 as the best (and you have veteran crew). Otherwise you have to shoot at them with shatter ammunition (press {{kbd|S}}) to reduce the crew of the enemy. | After collecting navigation points and maybe finding a better mate, the beginner should get more ships.
