If you are sailing around and spot a keg in your hold or on the deck, it helps to understand what it actually does and how it fits into your run.
What The Keg Does In Sailing
A keg gives you a burst of supplies when you interact with it. It refills your repair resources so you can patch your hull or fix light damage during sea travel. The refill is instant, so it is an easy way to stay safe without stopping at a port.
How The Keg Works During Trips
You can tap a keg whenever your repair stock gets low. It saves time because you do not need to gather materials while monsters or hazards are nearby. It is common to use a keg right after a rough fight or when you hit a rapid by mistake. The effect keeps you ready for the next stretch of water.
Many players keep one in storage when charting maps because it prevents long detours. A single refill can carry you through most routes if you already avoid unnecessary damage.
Smart Ways To Use A Keg
Use it when you drop below half repairs so you never risk sinking during a busy moment. Try to save it until you finish clearing obstacles or dealing with storms so the refill does not get wasted right away. Keeping a backup keg on board before long expeditions helps you avoid running dry in areas with few safe stops.
Final Blurb
A keg is one of the easiest safety tools in Sailing. It restores your repairs, keeps your hull ready for danger, and cuts down on wasted travel time. Bring one for long routes and it smooths out your entire trip.
