The cost of fast travel in Skull and Bones depends on the distance between your current location and the desired Outpost you want to travel to. Here’s a breakdown of how it works:
Factors Affecting Cost:
Distance: The farther the Outpost is from your current location, the higher the silver cost of fast travel.
Price Display:
The specific cost isn’t directly displayed on the map. However, you can see the cost before confirming your fast travel selection.
Two Ways to Check Cost:
From the Map:
Open the map (default key: "M").
Hover over the desired Outpost (marked with a house symbol).
If you’ve previously visited the Outpost, a fast travel icon (two arrows) will appear near its name.
Hover over the fast travel icon, and a tooltip will display the silver cost for traveling to that specific Outpost.
From the Ship Management Menu:
Approach any docked ship at an Outpost.
Interact with the ship (default key: "E").
Select the "Manage Ship" option.
Choose the "Fast Travel" option at the top of the menu.
Select your desired Outpost from the list.
Before confirming, you’ll see the silver cost displayed next to the Outpost name.
Important Notes:
Fast travel can be a convenient way to save time by quickly traversing long distances.
However, it’s important to manage your silver resources effectively, as frequent fast travel can quickly deplete your silver reserves.
Consider alternative travel options like sailing directly to your destination if you’re low on silver or enjoy the exploration aspect of the open world.
By understanding how fast travel costs work and checking the price before confirming your selection, you can make informed decisions about when and where to utilize this feature in Skull and Bones.
