Best Black Market Items

Smuggled Wood, Fiber, and Metal

Wood, Fiber, and Metal resource packs are a great choice for those looking to stock up on crafting materials. These only cost 100 Pieces of Eight and contain 50 pieces of two kinds of materials of a particular region!

We don't recommend the Specialized Materials or Animal Skin packs since they offer a small amount compared to their price and, in the case of specialized materials, you'll earn more looting enemy ships that have these as their cargo.

Ship Weapons, Armor, or Furniture

The Helm Black Market offers an alternative way to purchase ship weapons, armor, and furniture that's already crafted and are bought with Pieces of Eight instead of silver.

If you're short on silver and are looking to upgrade your ship facilities, we recommend purchasing the crafted Weapons, Armor, and Furniture from the Helm Black Market if you don't want to spend time gathering materials and spending silver to craft them.

Get Exclusive Cosmetics

The Helm Black Market also offers captain and ship cosmetics that you can't purchase anywhere else and are often some of the first items you can purchase with Pieces of Eight.

If you can craft your own ship weapons and armor and don't really have anything else to spend your Pieces of Eight on, we recommend purchasing these exclusive cosmetics to further personalize your character and ship.

The Helm's Black Market Store

The Helm Black Market is a special store operated by The Helm that sells goods ranging from raw materials to ship weapons and armor.

The Black Market first becomes accessible after completing the Helm Questline in Sainte-Anne. Once open, speak to Yanita Nara in Sainte-Anne or Houma Nara in Telok Penjarah to access their wares.

Goods sold in the Black Market require Pieces of Eight to purchase, which are a special currency earned by completing Orders for the Helm's Smuggling Network and offers an alternative way to purchase items without spending silver.
