Phoenix

"'A steam engine gives the Phoenix an advantage over the Badger.' - Shipwright's Summary"The Phoenix is a level nine semi-clad steamship with decent speed and cargo, great armament, high-ish hull strength, and upwind speed. She would serve as a versatile combat ship.

Very similar to her sister, the Badger, though the Phoenix has a steam engine.

A popular combat ship that is used for good overall stats and accessibility. It has a good broadside that packs serious power behind good health. However, the cannons can be damaged quite a lot. Due to its mediocre turning speed, it can be easily stern locked by experienced players or maneuverable ships.

This ship is generally best used as a heavy-duty combat ship in battles and against strong opponents rather than as a raiding or pirate ship. Fast ships such as the Stiletto can often encircle the Phoenix and sink it.

The Phoenix used to be a direct upgrade from the Badger due to it used to having having identical ship statistics. but a recent patch decreased the Phoenix's health by 2000.However, the most notable addition is the steam engine.

The Phoenix is a very popular ship for most players, as many consider this to be the best combat ship in the game, due to its high hull strength, good broadside, steam engine, and decent speed. A minority of players consider other options, which is a subject of much debate.

The Phoenix balances speed, armor and armament perfectly, which can be the reason why many love this ship. It is most commonly used as a daily combat ship, as well as a flagship, support ship, or raiding ship.

Requires a lot of time Mining, you need iron, coal, and copper to make this and making it functional.

Trivia Edit

 * Named after a mythological Greek bird of fire. Upon nearing death, the Phoenix burns itself to death and is reborn from the ashes as a chick. Appropriate for a combat-based steamship.
