Hiya guys, so it's been a long time since I made a new post, and there will be more to come.
I decided to make ESF bundle to give away to help players enjoy ESF as well as gain rewards, click the thumbnail below on details but I will talk about here what went into the bundles (it was an 'epic' project, pun intended).
So the project included:
40 Gunboats, 20 Rearguard Bombardas for light ships.
12 Battle Heavy Caravel, 9 Commander Sambuk, 15 Commander Corvette, 26 Commander Heavy Cavarel for standard ship.
All ship are iron paneled, most did not need an iron panel as they could have been produced in iron as base. Also all ships are modded 3 or 4 times, all have 2 optional skills and 1 original skill, and all ships are graded to G3, so it was quite an endeavour.
Luckily I am a rare item plunderer, so the Famous Admiral's staffs needed for Commander Hulls and Heavily Armoured Sterncastles were acquirable for me in bulk. I did intend on plundering Scatterguns, but after around 10 plundered I realised they were time costly and the rare fleet was unreliable as it would de-spawn.
For ship parts, I had to produce 780 Set of Repair Tools, 600 for Grand Cannons and 180 for the Ganador platings. Luckily I saved Broken Cannon/Broken Armour dropped from Ganador which was needed to produce it all. The Heavily Armoured Sterncastles came from plundering and the Garuda were easy to produce.
Again thanks to rare plundering I was able to plunder Mode Design v7 and produce Captain Equipment in bulk.
I started out wanting to do this project alone, I didn't want to burden anyone with their time producing items they would get nothing from their time, HOWEVER, the company I am in is FUBB, took it upon themselves to help, and they helped massively. I didn't ask them for help, but they did anyway :D
Without their help I would still been producing FS parts, buying SSIPs etc for weeks longer. They donated SSIPs, ESBRs, FS parts etc on a massive scale, as well as mod some ships themselves, so I can't thank them enough.
The Bundles are 100% free designed to help players experience ESF that would normally not have the funds or the means to produce their ships, cannons etc, and are not intended for players to sell.
If you feel like the ships no longer serve you, or you manage to produce/buy better ships, then please give the ships away for free to company members or other ESF newcomers.
Many thanks, hope you have fun in ESF!
