Caravan of the Sea?

From my understanding, there will be different classes of ships. One of these classes is a trade ship which will act as a caravan in the water.

So to answer your first question, yes.

Second question is we don't know the capacity or abilities yet. We assume each ship type will have some sort of specific specs that make it unique, we just don't know what.

Lastly, yes, from what we understand, "cargo" or trading ships are in the game.

Hope this helps!

Well I do really hope that ships will be able to be caravans! xD
I plan to play a Tulnar Bard Mercenary guard after all

I thought trade ships were already confirmed ?

All info on naval things right now.

"Trade ships (Naval caravans) are part of Ashes of Creation naval content. Trade ships allow the transportation of trading goods."
"Ships will scale in size:
Small ships for solo content.
Medium ships for group content.
Large ships for raid content.
Sailing will be pretty in-depth and it's going to be based on the size of the ship that you're using. So there will be components for seamanship that other players you will need to have on board if you want to operate a vessel to the best of it's abilities: Let's say in combat or traversing just the world."

"There will be nodes along the coast and on islands.

These nodes will have specific water oriented influences and abilities, services, questlines, that relate to the seas.
It may be possible to siege a coastal city by sea. So there will be components for seamanship that other players you will need to have on board if you want to operate a vessel to the best of it's abilities: Let's say in combat or traversing just the world."

Possibly, if we can raise a node on an island into a metropolis and then just abandon it and a giant seamonstervisits and destroyes the whole island ;D
