Staged supplies

The real punishment for dying in Windrose is often the recovery trip: getting back to gear, loot, or a ship position without the supplies you had the first time.

Reduce Recovery Pain

Build small coastal staging points, keep food and healing in storage, and do not sail with every valuable material you own. Short trips are easier to recover from than one overambitious voyage.

Co-op Recovery

In co-op, keep one player alive and away from danger during risky fights. A surviving teammate can stabilize the situation, rescue loot, or guide the next attempt.
