Shack


 * If you are looking for the SHACk list, click here: Skellie Hunters Across Cobalt.

A shack is a type of house. Your first is free and located on your home island. Additional ones cost 1250 PoE, but if you return your only shack, you can get a new one for free. If you own multiple shacks and return one, the first one you return will not grant you any money back, even if it was not the first shack you received. Any additional shacks returned will grant you 625 PoE.

New pirates have a mission to "Get Loot for yer home!" which presents you with a free bedroll and slatted crate and the message: ''Here's some furniture to get you started. Check the text in the 'Ahoy' tab to learn how to arrange furniture. Also, new pirates recieve a rat with the message: A little rat has scurried into the house. You can pick it up and take it with ye or equip it to have it follow ye. Pets which are following ye will not show up in some scenes but will reappear when ye return to your house and other scenes which allow pets.''
