Ship Rebuild Guide

Level 10 ships (one of each type; Trader, Adventure and Battleship) are now given to any newly created character....
If your character is below 120 in profession I suggest you just make a new character and level it as leveling to 120+ takes about 8 hours....
or
Just make a new character on a different account and trade the ship to the character that needs it.


DO NOT Rebuild your Caroelle Ship to any
Battleship lower than level 5 or 6 (the Caroelle is faster and stronger)
Merchant level 5 or lower (unless you really need the extra load, the speed loss and other losses are maddening)
Raider/Adventure ship level 5 or lower (unless you need to equip a telescope for discoveries; again the Caroelle is faster and stronger)
