Hull Plates T5

Reinforced plates that improve the defence roll without adding Hull HP.

Requirements

Requires Hull Defence level 30 to equip and to perform an ordinary rarity upgrade. This requirement is the same for all four rarities. Your combined combat level does not replace it.

You can recycle this item or advance it to the next tier without meeting its equip requirement. Equip one set of Hull Plates in its matching slot. Broken equipment must be restored before equipping.

Bonuses by rarity

Defence improves the opposed defence roll. It does not grant Hull HP or subtract a fixed amount from every incoming hit.

Broken equipment supplies none of the bonuses in this table.

Obtaining

New NPC equipment drops are Common. Upgrade their rarity with matching Artifact Scrolls at the Shipwright; already owned Rare, Epic and Legendary equipment keeps its rarity. Looted equipment is ready to use once its Hull Defence requirement is met. Equipment can also be obtained through player trading.

At the Shipwright, Legendary Hull Plates T4 plus one Common Artifact Scroll T5 and 5,000 Coins produces Common Hull Plates T5.

The table lists active NPC sources at base rates. Rows marked as independent rolls are separate from the main loot roll; they are not competing alternatives. Eligible loot effects can improve occurrence without changing the rolled rarity.

Advancing to the next tier

Legendary Hull Plates T5 + one Common Artifact Scroll T6 + 5,000 Coins becomes Common Hull Plates T6. No raw material or Boat Scrap is required.

If the item is equipped and you do not meet the new tier's requirement, the result moves to your hold. Leave an empty inventory slot. Premium does not change the tier-upgrade price.

Recycling

Recycling destroys the selected intact, unpacked item and returns Wood, Boat Scrap and the Coins below. Unequip it first. No skill level is required, even if you cannot wear this tier. Leave room for every returned physical material.

Premium increases the Coin component by 10%, rounded down. Material and Scrap yields are unchanged.

Broken equipment and restoration

Broken Hull Plates T5 is restored through the Ship Mechanic service. Restoration preserves its tier and rarity. You must be stopped, alive and outside the combat lock, with the broken item and Coins in your hold.

Restoration is currently unavailable for this tier. The service has no enabled price; a missing price does not mean a free repair.

Storage and trading

Each unpacked Hull Plates T5 occupies one of the 28 inventory slots. The bank groups matching rarity and condition, up to 250 physical items per displayed group.

The bank can withdraw matching items as a packed stack. Packed items cannot be equipped, consumed, sold to a service or used as crafting ingredients. Deposit the packed stack to recover its usable contents.

This item may be traded with another sailor. The Harbour Merchant does not buy it.
