Low Harbor

**Stub**
This page is a stub. You can help by expanding it.

The **Low Harbor** is the port of Farhaven, where your character manages and conducts maintenance on their aether-fuelled ship. Although the location is accessible immediately, the player ship and its upgrades are only available after defeating the Fey Avatar and completing the first quest, **All Hands on Deck**.

## Ship Mechanics

After unlocking the Low Harbor, your player ship is immediately available and allows you to travel past the Mystic Grove, provided that its condition is above 0%.

While in any dungeon, you can tap on the ship icon in the top-right to access any of its functions. However, each function can only be used once and only three functions can be used in total before you are too fatigued.

The ship can also host up to three crew members, with each member giving different benefits and their effectiveness determined by their experience. The first crewmember, unlike the rest of the Low Harbor's functions, can be hired prior to completing **All Hands on Deck**.

If you exit a dungeon through the intended exit, your ship will degrade its condition by a small percentage, which can be repaired back by 25% for 25 gold.

### Naval Battles

Naval Battles can occur once you have unlocked your ship, with a random chance to happen after exiting a dungeon via the intended exit. In such battles, a random vessel belonging to a particular enemy group intercepts your ship as you sail back to Farhaven. The battle takes place in turns with your caravel going first, where you have four decisions to make:

* Fire a round shot that inflicts heavy damage, but has a chance to miss depending on the enemy's **maneuver chance**
* Fire a grapeshot that inflicts low damage, but decreases the enemy **maneuver chance** by 15% and guarantees a hit
* Board the vessel for better loot, only if the enemy is at 25% health or below.
* Flee like a coward.

If you choose to board the vessel, you are paired with a group of three enemies fitting the vessel's owners (i.e a Mua-Ta ship will have Mua-Ta enemies). These enemies are selected from the same tier that your character level is at and have slightly increased stats.

Should your ship fall to 0%, you will lose a hefty portion of gold, but does not delete your save file if on **Permadeath**.

## Services

The Low Harbor provides two services to the player: Hiring crew members, and performing ship upgrades. Crew Members function as passive effects that can either benefit you in dungeons, benefit you in Farhaven, or provide ship-exclusive benefits. You can have up to three crew members with you at any given time, and all of them have different uses and suit different strategies.

Ship Upgrades serve as permanent upgrades that come in three varieties: **Player Passives**, **Ship Passives**, and **Ship Actives**.

Player Passives are effects that passively and permanently benefit the player, such as increasing inventory space or boosting the chance of event tiles spawning in a dungeon floor.

Ship passives benefit the ships combat capabilities, such as reducing incoming damage from ships or increasing the odds that you'll successfully board the enemy vessel.

Ship actives provide special active abilities that can be used while inside of a dungeon, up to three in any single floor. These offer multitudes of benefits, such as restoring health, digging up treasure, or even revealing enemy positions!

## Crew Members

Crew Members are hirable helpers that assist you both inside Farhaven and in battle. Your ship holds up to three crew members at once, the first slot available immediately, the second at character level 12 and the third at character level 24. They can also be dismissed and replaced, although to replace a crew member a gold fee must be paid, as with hiring one fresh.

Novice crew members cost 250 gold to hire, experienced ones cost 350 and veterans cost 450.

## List of Enemy Vessels

Enemy Ships come in a variety of types with varying levels of health and maneuver chance. Additionally, epic versions of ships also appear once you have cleared the main quest, and particularly only strongly affect your experience if you choose to board the vessel.
