Whether you're a salty veteran or a fresh-faced buccaneer, there's nothing like upgrading your favorite ship and unleashing devastating chaos with a fine-tuned build. Today, we're diving into one of the most powerful and stylish setups currently ruling the Indian Ocean - the Moonnight build for the Garuda, optimized at Level 15 with an arsenal that will leave your enemies in smoldering wreckage.

So hoist your sails, load the cannons, and prepare for war. This is your full breakdown of the Moonnight ship build - materials, stats, weapons, rolls, and the gameplay firepower you'll need to dominate Skull and Bones' unforgiving waters.

Upgrading the Garuda to Level 15

Before we dive into the firepower, let's talk ship upgrades. The Garuda is already a formidable vessel at its base level, but at Level 15, it transforms into a floating fortress with impressive durability and combat efficiency.

Required Materials:

To upgrade your Garuda to Level 15, you'll need:

· 15,000 Pieces of Eight

· 50,000 Skull and Bones Silver

· A full set of crafting materials - including wood, iron, and advanced components specific to endgame progression.

· Once the upgrade is complete, the benefits are immediate and impactful:

· Increased Hull Health - tank more damage, engage more enemies.

· Enhanced Brace Strength - withstand incoming volleys longer.

· Faster Brace Recovery - bounce back quickly after soaking hits.

· This makes the Garuda not just a damage dealer, but a resilient brawler capable of staying in the fight longer than most ships in its class.

Weapon Loadout - Moonnight Build Breakdown

The key to the Moonnight build is overwhelming offense - particularly a combination of piercing, incendiary, and electrical devastation. Here's how the build looks in full:

Front Weapon - Bane of Ten Suns

The Bane of Ten Suns is an elite-tier weapon that fires drill bolts - and it's not just for show. Its primary perk, Unrelenting, allows it to pierce through multiple enemy ships, making it a nightmare in fleet battles and PvP skirmishes.

· Perk: Unrelenting - Drill bolts deal +50% damage to each additional target they hit.

· Custom Rolls:

· Incendiary - Adds burning damage over time.

· Siege - Enhanced damage to structures or large ships.

· Raider - Increases plunder effectiveness.

· This weapon is perfect for initiating combat, especially when enemies are clustered. It softens entire lines of ships with just a few well-aimed volleys.

Port and Starboard Weapons - Divine Thunder

On both sides of the ship, the Moonnight build features Divine Thunder - a weapon that summons literal lightning to strike your enemies when you hit weak points.

· Perk: Shock Surge - 35% chance to summon a lightning strike dealing 3,000 electric damage.

· Left Side Rolls:

· Pierce - Better penetration against armored hulls.

· Precise Patchwork - Increases accuracy and control.

· Tearing - Causes bleed effects or persistent hull damage.

· Right Side Rolls:

· Incendiary - Adds fire damage to attacks.

· Amplified Electric (x2) - Stacks lightning effect multipliers.

· Having Divine Thunder on both sides means you can rotate through broadside attacks with brutal consistency. It's also great for hitting multiple targets in chaotic engagements where positioning is constantly changing.

Rear Weapon - Weak Point Killer

The rear of the ship often gets ignored, but not in the Moonnight build. Here, the focus is maximum weak point damage, which is critical for finishing off high-value targets.

· Rolls:

· Combust - Triggers explosive damage on weak points.

· Lethal to Weak Points - Amplifies critical hits.

· Extra Lethal to Weak Points - Stacks even more crit damage.

· With a 66% boost to weak point damage, this rear weapon becomes your ace in the hole when enemies try to flee or circle around.

Auxiliary Gear - Eye of Heaven

No ship is complete without solid auxiliary support, and the Eye of Heaven lives up to its divine name. It enhances your explosive and AoE damage, helping you wipe enemy groups quickly.

· Rolls:

· Haste - Reduces cooldowns for faster ability cycling.

· Blast Range - Expands AoE radius of explosions.

· Amplified Explosive - Boosts the base damage of explosive attacks.

· This gear synergizes perfectly with Divine Thunder and incendiary rolls, helping you lock down control over the battlefield.Cosmetics and Style - Sailing with Swagger

Every pirate knows that looking good is half the battle. With the Moonnight build locked and loaded, it's time to deck out the Garuda in style. Whether it's dark sails with ember streaks or hull paint that gleams under the moonlight, match your cosmetics to your build theme.

This isn't just about aesthetics. A well-designed ship can intimidate enemies before the first cannon is fired. Make sure your look reflects the power you're bringing to the seas.

Gameplay Strategy - Fire and Fury

The Moonnight build thrives on aggression and pressure. Here's how to make the most of it in various scenarios:

PvE Fleet Battles:

Start engagements with the Bane of Ten Suns, aligning multiple ships to maximize piercing damage. Rotate into broadsides with Divine Thunder, alternating sides for constant electrical strikes. Use your rear weapon to finish off damaged ships.

PvP Encounters:

Against real players, prioritize disabling and confusion. The lightning and fire effects make it hard for opponents to brace properly or respond to status ailments. Target weak points aggressively - your rear weapon is a game-ender.

Boss Fights:

Use siege perks from the front weapon to shred through bosses' armor. Stay mobile and time your brace recovery - your upgraded stats give you breathing room others won't have.

Final Thoughts - Moonnight Dominance

The Moonnight build is not just powerful - it's poetic. Like a storm arriving at midnight, it strikes with flame, thunder, and fury. With the Garuda at Level 15 and a full complement of carefully rolled Skull and Bones Items gear, you'll be an unstoppable force on the seas of Skull and Bones.

This build is perfect for players who want a high-risk, high-reward playstyle that thrives in the chaos of large battles and PvP. It rewards precision, aggression, and smart resource management - while looking stylish all the while.

So get out there, point pirates. Load the cannons.
