The Precision Drilling Bit in Skull and Bones is a rare and valuable resource used to craft some of the most powerful weapons and ship upgrades in the game. Here’s how to obtain them:
Methods to Acquire Precision Drilling Bits:
Raiding Dutch Ports and Ships:
The Dutch East India Company (DEIC) owns many Precision Drilling Bits in Skull and Bones. However, consider that:
DEIC forts and ships are present in high-level areas (Level 10+), making them challenging encounters for new players.
Consider calling for help from other players through Skull and Bones’ co-op system for tackling these challenges.
Defeating Maangodin (The Ghost Ship):
This Level 8 Elite enemy can spawn at night in specific locations.
Utilize online resources or rumors within the game to track Maangodin’s potential locations.
Defeating Maangodin can reward you with 5-8 Precision Drilling Bits.
Completing Specific Co-Op Contracts:
Participating in certain co-operative contracts with other players, such as the "Cargo Hunt" or "Helm Wager" contracts, might offer Precision Drilling Bits as rewards.
This method can be less risky compared to directly attacking Dutch holdings or the Ghost Ship.
Alternative Resource for Upgrades:
While not as powerful as items crafted with Precision Drilling Bits, consider utilizing resources obtained through other means to upgrade your ship and weapons. This allows you to progress without solely relying on acquiring this specific rare material.
Overall:
Precision Drilling Bits are valuable but challenging to acquire in Skull and Bones. Choose the method that best suits your playstyle and skill level, and consider alternative resources for upgrades while aiming for these rare materials.
