Chain Shot is a special cannon round made from two smaller cannonballs, joined by a length of chain. When fired, they act as a powerful bolo, which can damage and destroy a ship's masts and sails very quickly, but do very little damage on hulls. With Rank 5 Chain Shot, a pirate can take down most masts with 2 shots.

Chain Shot is the first special cannon round a pirate can obtain, available at Cannon Skill Level 2. Chain Shot can be purchased at any gunsmith.

To use Chain Shot, be stationed at a cannon and press 2 or click .

Once two rounds have been fired, it will take several seconds to reset. You can improve your reload speed by using the Passive Skill Rapid Reload.
