Because money and materials are scarce, it&#8217;s important to think carefully about which upgrade to unlock. However, you&#8217;ll need to <strong>progress in the story to upgrade some aspects of your ship<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Below, you&#8217;ll find the best upgrades to focus on as you progress in the game.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"armored-hull\">\n                        Armored Hull<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<p>Unlocking higher tiers of the Armored Hull upgrade should be your main goal when it comes to preparing the Jackdaw for battle.

It doesn&#8217;t shine because of its damage potential (the weapons with the highest damage are fire barrels and heavy shots), but because it allows you to <strong>fight from a safe distance<\/strong>. Using it is not an easy task since you must time your shots correctly, so the enemy can&#8217;t escape them all. However, if you master this weapon, you can deal enough damage to an enemy&#8217;s ship while avoiding being hit by their cannons. In addition, this is your main weapon against forts.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"broadside-cannons\">\n                        Broadside Cannons<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<p>These are the bread-and-butter guns of your ship. Most of the time, <strong>you want to make every shot count<\/strong> when firing your broadside cannons, so it&#8217;s always good to have more cannons. Every tier of this upgrade<strong> increases the number of cannons on the side of the ship<\/strong>, which affects the damage output with all the three types of shots you can use \u2014 round, heated, and heavy. Spending your reales and materials on this upgrade early on is a better option than doing so for each shot separately.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"heavy-shot-and-mortar-storage\">\n                        Heavy Shot and Mortar Storage<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<p>Once you have covered your bases with higher defenses and damage output, it&#8217;s time to invest in <strong>carrying more ammo for your cannons<\/strong>. Heavy shot and mortars are powerful weapons, but you&#8217;re punished by missing shots since you can carry limited ammunition for each. That&#8217;s why you want to grab the <strong>Heavy Shot Storage<\/strong> and the <strong>Mortar Storage upgrades<\/strong> to have as much ammo as possible. These are fairly cheap compared to others on this list and will definitely give you the upper hand in some battles.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"harpoon-and-harpoon-storage\">\n                        Harpoon and Harpoon Storage<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<p>Harpooning is an important secondary activity in <em>Assassin&#8217;s Creed Black Flag Resynced<\/em> since it allows you to collect crafting materials.
