The stamina system in Skull and Bones can be a pain the butt, but with these tips you can manage it more effectively.
After many years of development and countless delays, Skull and Bones has finally arrived. One somewhat odd thing you’ll quickly realize when playing the game is that your ship has a stamina bar that determines how long you’re able to sail at top speed and whether you can brace against incoming attacks. Stamina can honestly be a bit frustrating, but there are ways to manage it, so it doesn’t have to be a big issue. Scroll on down for everything you need to know about stamina…
Manage your sails
In Skull and Bones, once you’ve raised your sails your can further “trim” them, in order to provide yourself an extra speed boost. It’s trimming your sails that consumes stamina, so try to trim your sails somewhat sparingly so you don’t completely consume your stamina. One thing to pay attention to is the direction of the wind, indicated by which way your sail is blowing. Sailing with the wind won’t reduce your stamina consumption, but it will boost your speed, so if you go with the wind you don’t necessarily have to trim your sails, saving you some stamina.
