Introduction and basic information

Cannons are used to deal damage to enemy ships. They are the most important piece of equipment as without any cannons, ships are not able to deal any damage to enemies (except with fire throwers and rams).

There are 4 types of cannons
 - Buckshot cannon - medium attack, medium range, high fire angle, medium loading time
 - Howitzer cannon - medium attack, high range, low fire angle, slow loading time
 - Dartling cannon - low attack, medium range, medium fire angle, fast loading time
 - Cannon - balanced, medium attack, medium range, medium fire angle, medium loading time


Cannons don't have durability, so it never decreases, no matter how many times they're used. Cannons can be destroyed, if the ship hull falls below 20%, and it still keeps being attacked. Even if the damage to hull is being shown as 0, there is still a chance for cannons to get destroyed.

Cannons have weight attribute. While stored in ships inventory, they will take up portion of the ships load. After equipping, they will become weightless, they will not take any of the ships load.


Every ship has two cannon slots. Left one often called port and right one often called starboard.

These cannons are available since Alpha version. They can be crafted using Foundry skill. Originally that was the only way a player could obtain them. In the later versions they were added as drops in instances and battlefields and eventually made available at Shipyard Bosses and Maltese Knightage Award Giver at Geona Port. For more details on how to craft these cannons, location of their drawings and list of materials, please refer to Cannon Crafting Guide.
