Even free players can train up C-grade mates to be stronger than natural S-grade mates. Once trained to SS-grade, mates can learn some very powerful effects. Promotion Every mate starts at rank 1 and can be trained up to rank 5. Each promotion increases his stats by perhaps 10% or so. Each promotion also allows having an additional mate skill active at a time, up to 4. Finally, each promotion makes it so that more skills are available to be used, as follows: Rank 2 (silver, two chevrons): unlocks two character effect mate skills if the mate is at least level 30 Rank 3 (gold, three chevrons): unlocks naval combat skill if the mate is at least level 50 Rank 4 (green, four chevrons): unlocks final two job effect skills if the mate is at least level 70 Rank 5 (red with yellow star): unlocks final two character effect skills if the mate is at least level 90. A relative handful of mates have a natural skill that the mate learns at level 99 replace one of the character effect skills that would normally be unlocked at either level 30 or level 90. You can promote mates from the promote tab of the mate screen. Promotion costs contracts, astrolabes, appointments, and ducats. The cost in ducats is generally pretty trivial, but the others are the real cost. For contracts, you need contracts for the particular mate, though you can substitute generic contracts of the same grade as the mate. Generic contracts are fairly rare, though, so you can't do this very often. You always need the same number and grade of astrolabes as appointments. Appointments are generally more common than astrolabes. However, there are separate appointments for adventuring, trade, and combat mates. Requiring appointments makes it more difficult to use your astrolabes to mostly focus on promoting one particular type of mate. The cost in materials of promotions depends on the grade of the mate, as follows: C-grade mates: rankcontractsastrolabesmat grade21020D32030C44040B58050A B-grade mates: rankcontractsastrolabesmat grade21030D32040C44060B58080A A-grade mates: rankcontractsastrolabesmat grade21040D32060C44090B580120A S-grade mates: rankcontractsastrolabesmat grade21050D32080C440120B580160A Training After a mate has reached rank 5, you can train him up to higher grades. That is, you can turn a natural C-grade mate into B-grade, then A, then S, and finally even SS. This takes additional contracts, astrolabes, and appointments. It also takes some training manuals. As before, appointments are more common than astrolabes. Training manuals are also plenty common enough to not really be much of a restriction. Each step of training costs 100 blue gems, but no ducats. When you train a mate, you increase his stats to be in line with that of the next higher grade, which commonly means roughly doubling his stats. The mate also gains some training points. Each training point increase one stat by 10. There are caps on how many training points can be allocated to a given stat for a given mate. Training a mate does not change his mate skills or naval combat skills. Higher natural grade mates tend to have stronger skills, and that does not change. Training does not increase a mate's language skills, either. Again, mates with a higher natural grade tend to have higher language skills, though there are exceptions. The cap on training points in a given stat per mate by mate grade are as follows: gradepointsC0B20A25S40SS70 The number of training points that a mate gains by increasing his grade are as follows: gradepointsC to B75B to A90A to S150S to SS260 Mates with a higher natural grade lose out on the training points that would have been obtained by training the mate from a lower grade up to his natural grade. Thus, for example, a natural C-grade mate trained up to A-grade has 75+90 = 165 training points available, while a natural B-grade mate trained up to A-grade only has 90. When training a mate up to a higher grade, you need two grades each of astrolabes and appointments. You need the same number of each of the four types of items, however. The number of each of these items matches the number of mate contracts that you will need, so it is the same number for each of five items. If you wish to substitute generic contracts for contracts specific to a particular mate, the generic contract grade must be that of the mate's current grade, not his natural grade. For example, if you wish to train a natural C-grade mate from A-grade to S-grade, you can use the mate's own C-grade contracts, but to substitute generic contracts, you would need A-grade. The grade of resources that you need in order to train mates to a higher grade depends on which grade transition you are making, not the base grade of the mate: grademat gradesC to BDCB to ACBA to SBAS to SSAS Meanwhile, the quantity of each resource that you need depends only on the base grade of the mate, and not which particular grade transition it is: gradequantityC50B65A85S110 Because mates with a lower base grade require more transitions to reach SS-grade, they require more resources in total to promote to SS-grade, in spite of each transition using fewer resources. However, the resources tend to be lower grades, and higher grade resources are far scarcer than lower grade ones. As such, it tends to on net be much cheaper to promote mates with a lower natural grade up to SS-grade, or even S-grade. Obtaining materials With gachas removed, the main source for most contracts is inns. Mates that can be hired in inns can subsequently be "rehired" in the same inn for five contracts. Admirals and mates obtained from their chronicles aren't directly hired from inns, but still have a list of ports where they can be obtained, typically ports that they visit during the admiral's chronicle. The other major source of contracts is combat dispatch. Named combat dispatches commonly give large numbers of contracts for the named mate. This allows you to get the 350 contracts that it takes to train a natural C-grade mate up to SS-grade very quickly. Some players have thousands of contracts for a given mate and sell the spares cheaply on the auction house, which makes it possible for newer players to buy bulk contracts for those particular mates cheaply. Mates with contracts that are readily available like this seem to all be natural C-grade mates. The mates in question are: Trade: Catherine Cornaro, Nicolas Flamel, Asarpay, Jan Joosten van Lodensteijn, Matsura Takanobu Combat: Victor Russell, Richard Huxley, William Clive, Ambrosius Ehinger, Hisakajima Yasuke Based on dispatch names, Georg von Speyer, Robert Wilde, and Jakob Roggeveen may also have contracts available from dispatch, but I haven't seen those contracts appear on the auction house in bulk. The Wilde and Roggeveen dispatches require such high level fleets that it is likely that no one does them yet. Astrolabes and appointments generally come from the same sources. There are two major sources of them and several minor sources. One major source is events, though the details vary considerably by event. The other major source is land training, which can be done up to 3 times per day, plus one extra if your country has a prime minister, and 7 more if you buy the Grace of Raphael effect. You get no reward from unsuccessful land training, and a somewhat random but partially predictable reward for successful training. Land training is like land exploration, except that the fourth and sixth slots are always gather (just like land exploration), while the rest of the slots are always explore and never combat. You generally get higher trade astrolabes and appointments for higher difficulty land training. A rough table looks like this: DifficultyMaterial grades5, 14, 30, 48Mostly C, some B65Mostly C, some B, occasional A89Mostly C, some B, some A108, 122Mostly B, some A136, 155aMostly B, some A, occasional S155b, 170, 175, 180Many B, occasional A, occasional S185, 200, 215Mostly A, occasional S220, 225, 235Many A, few S 155a is for 155 difficulty in zones that required company level 55 at launch, which are around Australia. 155b is for 155 difficulty in zones that required company level 60 at launch, which are predominantly in northeast Asia. The types of appointments vary by location, but the boundaries don't necessarily coincide with land exploration zone boundaries. For example, if land training in a given position gives trade appointments, then all appointments from training at that particular location will always be trade and never adventuring or combat. Some other location will always give combat and not trade or adventuring. The exception is that for difficulty 155b and higher, you get some of each type of appointment rather than only one. Until then, this allows you to select the particular type of appointment that you wish to farm. I am not yet able to check the zones that require 200 seaworthiness or more, however. Admirals' mates Some mates are associated with a particular admiral and cannot be obtained without the admiral. In some cases, you obtain the mate as part of the chronicle. In others, after you reach a certain point in the chronicle, the mate becomes available for hire in inns. Every admiral's chronicle has an associated S-grade mate who is unobtainable until you complete the chronicle. Mates associated with admirals are notable because they are easier to acquire contracts for in inns than other mates. Some mates are available in several ports and actually available in the port perhaps 1/3 or 1/2 of the time. Other mates are only available in a single port, but will always be available to hire in the inn in that port. Some S-grade mates not associated with admirals can also be hired in inns, but appear only rarely, which makes it difficult to acquire contracts to rank them up. Many mates that are associated with admirals appear in exactly the same set of ports as the admiral. As such, I list the associated mates in a table below. The first column is the admirals . The second column is the list of mates available in exactly the same ports as the admiral. The third column is mates available in only a single port. The fourth column is other mates that do something different. You must acquire the admiral before you can do the chronicle and acquire associated mates. The ports where an admiral appears are ports where you can acquire additional contracts after you have the admiral. You cannot hire an admiral directly in inns, but only acquire additional contracts.

They are each available in one extra port that the admiral is not, but that's not worth hunting down. Recommended ports for admirals' mates When you visit a port, you can readily try to recruit (or more commonly, acquire contracts for) all of the mates that are present in the inn in that port. You can try all at once. As such, it is much more efficient to visit one port where you can acquire contracts for several mates at once than to make a separate port visit for each mate. The optimal set of ports to visit obviously depends very heavily on which mates you are trying to acquire contracts for. Admirals and their associated mates are notable here because those are by far the easiest natural S-grade mates to acquire contracts for. I have assembled a list of recommended ports under the assumption that you are interested in all of the admirals and their associated mates. The first column is the name of the port. They are roughly arranged geographically. The second column is the admirals that can appear at that port. Mates that appear at the same ports as an associated admiral (as listed in the previous section) are not listed separately from the admiral. The third column is for mates that appear in only one port, but are guaranteed to appear in that port. The final column is for other mates associated with an admiral.

Unlike other effects, these do not have any level requirements. One skill costs 36.3 million ducats and 30 S-grade training manuals to unlock. The other skill costs 1000 red gems. As these are the ultimate effects, they tend to be more powerful than other effects. As with other effects, you can stack more than one of the same skill. Stacking is again not linear, but I'm not going to post the full tables here. This section lists which mates have which skills, but only the ones that weren't particularly expensive to obtain before the gachas were removed. That is, the only mates listed below are the natural B-grade or C-grade mates that were in the normal mate gacha. With contracts now available in inns, it's less relevant than it used to be, but still a list of mates that high level players tend to already have a lot of contracts for. 1000 gems for a single mate effect is very expensive, so I exclude the red gem skills here. The artillery, ramming, or melee skills are in the table below. Each of the three types of attacks has analogous skills, but different mates have different skills. Each skill uses training manuals of the corresponding type, such as melee manuals for a melee skill. skillartilleryrammingmeleeincrease additional (type) defense by 10%Andreas Paella, TzilacatzinKurushima Michifusa, Panfilo de Narvaez, Juan Sebastian Elcanoincrease additional (type) crit resistance by 55%Kristina Nilsdotter, Victor Russell, Alonso de Mendoza, Pieter Van FuykGonzalo Silveira, Anthony Johnson, Jonathan BarnettViolante Doria, Marcos de Niza, Shimazu Yoshihiro, Hans Staden, Alonso Alvarez de Pinedaincrease additional (type) crit damage resist by 7.5%William CliveMumtaz Mahal, Valpuri Innamaa, Antonio de Saldanha, Robert AmadasMatsura Takanobu, Asarpay25% chance to negate damage when hit by (type) attackFrancisco Serrao, Pero Da Covilha, Todar Mal, Johann HallerFernandez de Enciso, Amerigo Vespucci, Micheletto Corella, Guido de LavezarisMartin Luther, Henrique de Malacayour (type) attack has 50% chance to decrease enemy speed by 3Francisco Javier, Gonzalo de Quesada, Walid Kemal, Jorge AlvaresJan Joosten van Lodensteijn, Francis Le Clerc, Pedro Navarro, Tarabai, Edmund HarveyGaspar de Quesada, Georg von Speyer, Agnes Sorel, Hisakajima Yasuke, Charlotte Cordayyour (type) attack has 30% chance to inflict great confusion for 2 turnsSebastian Cabot, Rachel Wall, Ana Maria de Sotoyour (type) attack causes lethal poison for 3 turnsRichard Huxleyyour attack has 90% chance to decrease enemy additional (type) attack by 55%Joseph Eastman, Panfilo Orid, Juan Vazquez, Mirza Aziz Koka, Julian FelmerLopo Pereira, Jang Anshun, Trifon Korobeynikov, Samuel PallacheGiovanni Ramusio, Ludovico de Varthema, Jacques Broom, Henry Middletonyour attack has 90% chance to decrease enemy additional (type) defense by 35%Sidonia von Borcke, Kenau HasselaerConrad Most trade skills correspond to a particular type of trade goods and a particular type of manual.
