Arr, listen up, ye landlubber! So ye wish to master the art of Surveying, do ye? A wise choice. 'Tis the skill that lets ye read the sea and sky, markin' every rock and shoal on yer chart. Many a fool has run aground for lack of it. But for a savvy captain like yerself, it's one of the easiest skills to train in all the seven seas.
What Be Required?
Ye need but one thing to start: the Surveying skill itself. Get it in yer head, and ye can begin.
Why Bother, Ye Ask?
Mark this well: a proper Surveyor is welcome in many a fine company. Master this, and doors swing open to grand careers as an Adventure Learner, Excavator, Treasure Hunter, or even a Folklorist chasin' legends. Aye, it's the foundation for a life of discovery and plunder!
The Captain's Truth on Grindin'
Here's the secret they don't tell ye in the taverns: ye don't need to be sailin'! The skill gains its strength simply by bein' active. Find a quiet spot outside a friendly port, with the skill turned on and a hold full of grub, and let the days roll by. 'Tis a perfect task for when yer hands are busy elsewhere.
- Fly the flag of one o' those recommended jobs to learn faster.
- Park in waters ye've already charted for a chance at blessin's from the sea itself.
- A clever captain sets his aides to Storekeeper and Surgeon to mind the lads and the supplies.
The trick is knowin' when to return. Watch yer vigour and don't let yer crew's fatigue grow too heavy. A hundred days at sea is a fair run before ye sail back to port for a proper rest.
So, there's the lay of the land, me heartie. The core of it is simple, but the devil—and the profit—be in the details. If ye hunger for the full chart, every last trick to make yer trainin' swift and sure, then make way to the complete guide below. I'll show ye how to seize this skill proper.
