Skull and Bones – How to Farm Silver

Here is a compilation of ways on how to farm Silver in Skull and Bones

Skull and Bones is Ubisoft’s long-awaited open-world action-adventure title to be released recently on February 14. The pirate-themed third-person shooter game has numerous features that involve collecting resources. One of the most important forms of resource in the game is Silver. It can be used to buy items like blueprints, ingredients and fast travel across the world. It also funds Manufactories.

So, let’s take a look at how we can farm Silver efficiently in Skull and Bones.

How to Farm Silver in Skull and Bones

Silver has a wide range of uses in the game. We already mentioned that it allows you to buy various kinds of blueprints from vendors. It is also needed to buy resources, various ingredients and fast travel all around the world. It also goes into funding your Manufactories, which help you to earn Pieces of Eight and buy raw materials for contraband.

There are a few ways you can get Silver and you can try all of them to gather large quantities at once.

Attack Other Ships

Attacking other ships and boarding them for extra amounts is a great way to earn some Silver. The more difficult your target is, the more Silver you can get. Considering that fact, going after World Events and Elite Captains with top-ranked ships will help. You can also check different trade routes to target merchant ships since they are easier to take out.

Hostile Takeovers also give out large amounts of Silver in the end game since you have to destroy a large number of ships. Look out for Chests of Silver as well which will increase your funds too.

Sell Items for High Amounts

Boarding and sinking other ships will give you many materials and commodities, most of which will have no other use to you other than being sold for Silver. Before heading to a vendor to sell those items, you can take a look at the World Map to see which of these commodities are high in demand.

You can sell those for higher prices as they have a higher demand. It is also wise not to sell commodities when they are low in demand, as they will sell for lower prices. You can understand the demand for a commodity based on the arrow next to them. A green arrow pointing upwards means high in demand and a red arrow pointing down means low in demand.

Finish Contracts

This one is quite obvious, but completing Contracts from the Contract Board gives out high amounts of Silver. You can find Contract Boards in Pirate Dens all over the world. They don’t help in earning Infamy, so it is wise to prioritize the ones provided by NPCs in settlements or vendors. They contain other rewards alongside Silver.
