Cosmetics

There are currently two categories of cosmetics in Blazing Sails: ship cosmetics and pirate cosmetics. Cosmetics can be applied to any ship or pirate, and can be saved on multiple of the player's saved designs at the same time. Players start with some basic default cosmetic options and unlock many more through opening chests. On rare occasions cosmetics can be given as rewards by the developers for promotional reasons.

### Unlocking Cosmetics

Either through doing well in matches, or through levelling in the progression system, players will be rewarded with chests. Regular chests have a semi-random chance of opening to give a cosmetic with rarity between, or including, White to Blue. Gold chests will do the same but with rarities between, or including, Green to Gold.

Cosmetics have different rarity values in increasing rarity: White, Green, Blue, Purple, Gold, and Red. Red cosmetics are sometimes exclusive to certain promotions and may not be tradeable.

The game can reward you with copies of cosmetics you have already unlocked, however the game is designed to try and make this less likely by increasing likelihood of getting new cosmetics instead.

### Collecting Cosmetics

Unlocked cosmetics will also appear in your Steam Inventory. You can trade these items with Steam "friends" using Steam's inbuilt trading system. Through trading and playing the game you can try to collect all the cosmetics. Percentage collected from every section is shown at the bottom of the customisation screen.

It is worth noting that many items have been given out at seasonal times or have been received as part of past exclusive promotions. The rarity shown by the color border of the cosmetic may not represent how rare an item is amongst the player base's collections.

### Other Cosmetic Settings

Each pirate can be either male or female, with 3 skeleton/undead options possibly being publicly soon. Each pirate can also be Scrawny, Average, or Strong in physique. There are 18 different skin tones and 18 different tattoo colors. There are 2 Male voices and 2 Female voices to choose from, with a sliding scale for voice pitch. Any cosmetic or voice can be applied to any gender of pirate.

Each ship can have hull paint worn to sliding degree. Bow figures can also have their 3 colors (if available) set to any of the colors used in the Hull Colors. The possible positioning of a Secondary Flag can also be set.

Peglegs: Only players who bought the game at its initial early access price have the ability to equip peglegs on both legs at the same time.
