Drift Sail Helm tool:
Q: How much faster do you need to go?
A: Yes.
- Available in all modes.
- Reduces drag in all horizontal directions similar to the Rushing Drift PVE ability.
- Reduces engine power to 50%, but accelerates your ship faster than its maximum speed due to reduced drag.
- Danger! Doubles all Impact damage taken from any source. This includes other ships, terrain, and guns. It also makes your ship incredibly hard to control.
- Activated when selected.
- Effects last three seconds after tool is unselected.
Best use is to activate after your ship has reached maximum velocity. The reduced engine force will slowly push your ship past its limits.
Please give feedback on this tool after combat testing it (and likely exploding a lot)

Edit: Buff currently makes reloads SLOWER instead of faster. We'll get this fixed ASAP and update here!
Edit 2: Buff is now fixed and makes reloads go faster as intended!
-
Gun buff reload has been corrected. It now reduces reload speed by 10%.
1 Mercantile Gold dye has been given to all players to replace the default yellow color that was removed from the Magnate when the sails were made paintable. Now you can have the giant banana back!
There is a known issue with the Embr theme texture that is being worked on.
-
Correction: Buff now reduces reload TIME by 10%, not speed.
