Summary[]
"The reinforced bow allows her to be armed with a long-range mortar." - Shipwright Summary
The Kestrel is a level 5 ship with good health, cargo, armament and speed. She serves well as a general multipurpose ship, and has moderate cannonball storage for naval battles.
Ship Characteristics[]
Although only carrying a mediocre max armament, when used correctly she can output significant damage on an enemy. The Kestrel has high sides and a level 10 sail speed which make her hard to board from the water. Her middle well deck has room for 4 medium sized cannons, 2 per broadside. Her reinforced bow allows her to sport a forward facing medium sized mortar.
The Kestrel is a good early game combat ship. Her high sides and respectable armament make her particularly useful in a support role to a larger combat ship such as a Sigil, Alliance, or Camel.
The Kestrel was remodeled to these characteristics in the April 2022 update.
Trivia[]
- Named after the small old-world falcon of Europe.
