After obtaining the Astray, it is very important to upgrade it to improve speed and hazard resistance.
Although Astray’s base Hazard Resistances may seem lackluster when compared with the Estoque, the Astray has some incredibly talented crew members that can make up for it.
Its base hazard resistances at level 1 are +9, gaining +1 in every resistance at each upgrade.
As seen in the upgrade chart below, the Astray’s obvious strength is its fast sailing speeds.

Astray Stats by Level
Each level of upgrade adds +1 to all Hazard Sea Resistances for Kelp, Sandstorm, Siren, Cold Snap, Tempest, and Dead Seas.

Astray & Estoque Stats Comparison
Astray seems weaker in Hazard Resistance than the Estoque. But, Astray has excellent sailors to make up the difference.

Upgrading the Astray
After acquiring the materials for an upgrade, simply dock (Press Z key) your ship at any major city harbor. Push the Upgrade button at the top right of the screen, confirm you have all the materials necessary, then push the OK button. The ship will be instantly upgraded.
Upgrading the Astray takes 3-4 different materials at each Level. Use the tables below to calculate cost in sailing coins, materials, and gold.
Astray Upgrade Materials
The tables below show the material costs for upgrading the Astray. The first chart goes by individual level, showing the parts and costs of each separate upgrade from 1 – 11. Unless you’re swimming in excess sailing coins, I do not recommend upgrading the Astray after level 10 because the costs of upgrading to level 11 far outweigh the benefits (+1 to each Hazard).
The second chart is a breakdown of the costs in coin, gold, and materials to level the Astray from 1 – 10.
The third table shows the upgrade process broken into more doable chunks, grouped by similar materials. For example, upgrades 1 – 5 all require the same materials.

Astray Special Material 4
Special Material 4 can be purchased for 25 sailing coins each at the Plumpcrab Fishing and Spearfish Hunting Guild Vessel traveling merchant ships, which arrive and leave at regular intervals from the city harbor, docking for 15 minutes at a time before disappearing and returning with a ‘fresh supply’. If you happen to arrive when neither of these ships is there, just wait a short minute and one will arrive. The table below shows the merchant ship location and coin cost for each material.
Material 4 can also be purchased at certain Stronghold (SH) merchants with SH seals. The table below shows which Stronghold merchants sells each material 4, the type of seals they accept, and the number of seals each material costs.
