Skull and Bones (Military Specialized Materials)-Cogwheel
Cogwheel is indeed a Military Specialized Material in Skull and Bones, important for crafting diverse equipment and upgrades. However, my previous information contained some inaccuracies. Let me provide you with the corrected and updated details:
Uses of Cogwheel:
Weapons: While not a primary component, Cogwheels are used in crafting specific mid-tier to high-tier weapons, such as:
Culverin III: This deck weapon delivers solid firepower.
Demi-cannon II: Equip your ship with these mid-tier cannons.
Kallinikos Flame I: Unleash fiery devastation with this unique bow weapon.
Ship Upgrades: Cogwheels play a crucial role in crafting various vital ship upgrades, including:
Advanced weapon mounts: Enhance your ship’s offensive potential with mounts for heavier cannons and mortars.
Mid-tier to high-tier armor plating: Increase your ship’s resistance to different damage types.
Balanced engine modifications: Boost your ship’s speed and agility for tactical maneuvering.
Signal Gong: This useful furniture piece enhances communication aboard your ship.
Scoping Station: Use this to improve your aiming capabilities and gain tactical advantages.
Acquisition of Cogwheel:
Trading: Certain merchants and outposts, particularly those specializing in military materials, might occasionally sell Cogwheels. However, expect limited stock and high prices.
Completing quests: Mid-tier to high-level quests and contracts, especially those focused on resource gathering or defeating powerful enemies, can reward you with Cogwheels.
Looting: Dismantling high-tier military equipment or weapons obtained from challenging enemies or completing difficult quests can yield Cogwheels.
Tips for Acquiring and Utilizing Cogwheel:
Prioritize completing quests and contracts that offer Cogwheels as rewards.
Explore specific regions where high-level enemies and challenging quests are found for potential Cogwheel drops.
Trade with merchants only if absolutely necessary and prepared for high prices.
Use Cogwheels strategically for crafting essential weapons and ship upgrades that suit your playstyle.
Remember, Cogwheels are valuable resources, so use them wisely!
Additional Notes:
The Screw Mechanism, although previously mentioned as a separate material, is actually a type of Cogwheel in the game. They serve the same purpose and can be acquired through the same methods.
There are no "Military Specialized Materials" called "Screw Mechanism" or "Apex Cogwheel" in Skull and Bones. It’s possible that you encountered them in unofficial sources or speculation.
