Skull and Bones offer various pirate activities to enjoy while navigating the seas. Accessing the Supply Network marks a significant milestone in your journey, opening the door to the game’s endgame pursuits.
The Supply Network in Skull and Bones offers supply missions that can yield substantial rewards in Silver and Infamy. It’s advisable to prioritize completing the Taking the Helm mission as soon as it’s available, despite a potential bug that might complicate matters. However, we’ve compiled comprehensive instructions to aid you in completing the quest, including a workaround for any known issues.
How to complete the Taking the Helm mission in Skull and Bones
To initiate the Taking the Helm mission in Skull and Bones, you must first attain the required rank. Upon reaching the Brigand Infamy level, a quest will appear in your log instructing you to visit the Mailbox and open a letter. Subsequently, converse with the Manager at Le Pont Muet, located as depicted below.
Upon meeting Yanita Nara at Le Point Meut, follow these steps:
- Pay 2500 Silver to join the Helm Empire.
- Access the concealed chamber behind the tavern, recognizable by a large golden circle featuring a Kraken in the center.
- Engage with the Supply Network Map and select a mission.
- Travel to the designated Outpost and procure the goods from the NPC.
- Return to Saint-Anne and confer with Yanita Nara to finalize the mission.
If fast travel is unlocked at the Outpost you need to visit, you can swiftly navigate to that location. Otherwise, sailing there is required, followed by fast traveling back to Saint-Anne for a shorter return journey.
Upon completing the Taking the Helm mission, the Distillery in the Helm will unlock. Here, you can refine Sugar Cane into Rum and subsequently deliver it to receive substantial amounts of Silver and Infamy.
Should you encounter a bug during this mission, fret not, as there’s a workaround available.
How to fix the Taking the Helm mission bug in Skull and Bones
