Question on ship's top speed

Recommended Posts

Can anyone tell me how many sails it takes to reach top speed on a ship? Also, how many steam engines or how many ylandium engines? Thanks in advance!

Hi Sandy,

It depends on the type of hull you use. @spiritchaser28 and I did some testing, and these were the results:

The fastest ship in ylands: Steam Ship with 4 engines (either ylandium or steam engines)

 

Max speed is reached with:

4 Engines - for Steam Ship or Large Ship

3 Engines - for Catamaran Ship, Junk Ship, or Ship

4 Large Mast with Sail - for Steam Ship or Large Ship

3 Large Mast with Sail - for Catamaran Ship, Junk Ship, or Ship

5 of any other type of sail -  for Steam Ship or Large Ship

4 of any other type of sail -  for Catamaran Ship, Junk Ship, or Ship

 

So if you don't want to remember any of this, it is 4 engines, 4 big sails, or 5 little sails.

Yeah steam ship is definitely the fastest, Catamaran and large ship is the second fastest. I prefer the catamaran for turning (Plus one less engine gets the same speed as large ship with 4). Steam ship is great at going straight but turning it is a beast.
