Hull Defence
Hull Defence helps incoming cannon attacks miss and unlocks stronger hull plates.
Training
Select Long range mode and deal actual damage to train Hull Defence. Taking damage alone does not award it.
Every point of damage credited to combat training awards 4 XP to the selected combat skill, plus 1.333 Health XP. A miss awards no damage XP. Overkill does not award experience for HP the target did not have.
Effect on combat
Long range adds 3 effective Hull Defence and 2 attack-range tiles. Hull Plates improve the defence roll; their bonus is not a second flat damage reduction.
Base defence roll = (Hull Defence + 8 + Long range bonus) × (64 + equipment Defence). Active defensive spell multipliers modify this roll.
Equipment and ships
Hull Plates require Hull Defence. Sails require Power instead. Fireships use Hull Defence requirements as well as Health.
Use the equipment guide and ship articles for exact tier requirements. Combat rating and your selected skill level are different values.
