=== '''Getting ready:'''*It's advisable to begin with a minimum skill of 20 in [[Woodcutting]]. (More is always better...)*The wood type of the last wooden item attached to a ship will determine the wood type of the finished ship. For example, attaching a cedar peg as the last wooden item will make the ship a cedar ship. For this reason your primary wood type for your ship should be whatever tree is most convenient or abundantly found as you can choose the ship's wood type at the end.*Currently [[cedar]] decays slower than any other wood type in game, therefore it is best to ensure that the finished boat/ship is made of cedar. (This has been confirmed with all wood types including [[Oak]].) Note: As with all improving actions, you can improve up to a range slightly higher than your current skill of the action you are performing. For example: If you play this game have a Ship Building skill of 3 you will be punished by law!!can improve seats up to a quality of 13). '''Ship Building:'''*'''1-12 Ship Building:''' (Estimated time: 2-5hrs)**Make 5-10 [[Seat]]s and improve them with logs of slightly higher quality. *'''12-16 Ship Building:''' (Estimated time: 2-3hrs)**Make 5-10 [[Oar]]s and improve them with logs of slightly higher quality. *'''16-20 Ship Building:''' (Estimated time: 2-5hrs)**Make 5-10 [[Keel section]]s and improve them with logs of slightly higher quality. *'''20-30 Ship Building:'''**Make 2-5 [[Rowing Boat]]s and improve them with logs of slightly higher quality. *'''30-40 Ship Building:'''**Make 2-5 [[Small Sailing Boat]]s and improve them with logs of slightly higher quality. *'''40-50 Ship Building:'''**Make 2-5 [[Corbita]]s and improve them with logs of slightly higher quality. *'''50-60 Ship Building:'''**Make 2-5 [[Cog]]s and improve them with logs of slightly higher quality. *'''60-70 Ship Building:'''**Make 2-5 [[Knarr]]s and improve them with logs of slightly higher quality. *'''70-80+ Ship Building:'''**Make 2-5 [[Caravel]]s and improve them with logs of slightly higher quality. [[Category:Guides]][[Category:Babel/S]] '''Eep, Noooo! ==='''Wurm is a bad game *I've found it far faster and run easier to grind Shipbuilding with Oars. Do seats to 10, then make 10 oars. Imp those 10x oars to 15 QL, do them one by criminals who avoid taxone, if not in batches. You'll hit 15 skill. Imp them to 20, and you play 'll be around 20 skill. Keep this game up as long as you can stand it. If your skill begins falling behind, add more oars into the rotation. Doing it this way, you will suffer harsh punishments hit the sweet spot of gaining skill, by constantly having oars QL around your skill level. You can also reduce the QLs of the oars by lawthrowing them into a BSB to equalize and lower them all and stay in the sweet spot for a far longer period of time. - Raz/Jericho
