The seas of Skull and Bones are more dangerous than ever, especially with the arrival of the new boss, Vicrim Skull and Bones Items. If you’ve been struggling to break through his shield or survive the fight, this build will change everything.
In this guide, I’ll walk you through a Frigate-class loadout that melts Vicrim’s defenses, rips through his weak points, and keeps your ship in fighting shape. Even better-it works with both premium and alternative gear setups.
Why This Build Dominates Vicrim
Vicrim’s main threat isn’t just his raw firepower-it’s his bubble shield and regenerating barrier towers. Many players make the mistake of shooting the towers, which only restores his shield faster.
This build focuses entirely on piercing and explosive damage aimed directly at Vicrim’s weak points, ignoring the towers entirely. With the right gear synergy, you can drop him in under two minutes-assuming no one else on your server sabotages the fight.
Ship & Weapons Setup
Ship: Frigate
A fully leveled Frigate is the backbone of this build. It offers the durability to withstand Vicrim’s fire while packing enough weapon slots to maximize damage output.
Primary Weapons: Nashcar Cannons
The Nashcars are the heart of the build. These cannons are designed with both damage and survivability in mind.
Key Stats & Perks:
Base Damage: 4,177
Ghastly Mending: 5% of damage dealt restores hull health when hitting weak points. This repair amount is multiplied by 700%, making it incredible for sustain.
Piercing: Allows shots to bypass Vicrim’s bubble shield.
Elemental & Damage Modifiers:
Burning 2
Piercing 1
Combustion
Siege
Amplified Explosive
Why it works: Piercing bypasses Vicrim’s bubble, while Ghastly Mending keeps your ship alive during sustained fire. Siege and explosive bonuses ensure that each hit counts.
Secondary Weapon: Roaring Mag
A beastly weapon that obliterates structures-perfect for other activities, but still useful against Vicrim for raw damage.
Key Stats & Perks:
Base Damage: 19,572
Demolition: +300% explosive damage to structures.
Precision Blast & Piercing 1
Dire Explosive, Amplified Explosive, Siege
While this weapon is built for fort destruction, its piercing modifier means it still contributes to tearing down Vicrim’s defenses.
Armor & Defensive Gear
Armor: The Wormh
Exceptional structural defense and synergy with stationary combat.
Key Perks:
Half Sails Bonus: Receive 5% less damage from structures, plus +1% per 3,000 brace strength. At half sails or anchored, take 20% less damage.
Shell Shock: Increases Vicrim’s reload time by 20% for 10 seconds.
Explosive Damage Boosts:
+20% secondary explosive damage
+5% weapon damage for explosive weapons
Why it’s perfect: During the Vicrim fight, you’ll mostly be stationary at half sails. The Wormh’s bonuses keep you alive while maximizing your explosive weapon output.
Furniture & Ship Enhancements
To get the most out of this build, I’ve equipped furniture that boosts explosive, piercing, and burning damage, while reducing reload times.
Key Furniture Pieces:
Long Gun Works I
+19% secondary long gun damage
Ramrod Workshop
-7% broadside reload time
+7% broadside secondary damage
Devil’s Concoction
+12% burning weapon secondary damage
+8% burning weapon range
Ammo Priming Bench
+20% siege weapon structure damage
+18% repair weapon healing (when 160m+ away)
+4% siege weapon damage
+7% repair weapon healing
High Velocity Kicks
+12% piercing weapon secondary damage
+8% piercing weapon range
Combat Strategy for Vicrim
Step 1: Positioning
Approach Vicrim until you’re in optimal firing range for your piercing weapons.
Drop to half sails or anchor to trigger the Wormh’s damage reduction.
Step 2: Target Weak Points
Vicrim’s weak points glow bright red.
Ignore his towers completely. Shooting them regenerates his barrier.
Focus continuous fire on weak points for maximum DPS and Ghastly Mending healing.
Step 3: Avoid Chaos from Other Players
In open waters, you’re likely to encounter other players during Vicrim fights. Many will mistakenly attack towers-making the fight much longer.Step 4: Sustain & Finish
The Nashcar’s healing will keep you alive as long as you maintain pressure on weak points.
If using Roaring Mag, weave in shots when the weak points are exposed for huge burst damage.Alternate Gear Setup-Tooling Guidance Variant
If you don’t own the Wormh or certain high-tier furniture, you can still run a Tooling Guidance variant.
Key Changes:
Swap Wormh for Tooling Guidance armor.
Maintain Long Gun Works I, Ramrod Workshop, Devil’s Concoction, Ammo Priming Bench, and High Velocity Kicks.
This version is slightly less tanky but still highly effective against Vicrim.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
1.Shooting the Towers-The single biggest reason Vicrim fights drag on. Destroying a tower regenerates his shield.
2.Poor Positioning-Staying too far reduces Nashcar healing and DPS. Too close, and you may take excessive damage before healing kicks in.
3.Ignoring Piercing Weapons-Without piercing, you’ll waste shots on Vicrim’s bubble instead of damaging him directly.
My Fight Experience
During one fight, I could have destroyed Vicrim in under 2 minutes-but other players repeatedly destroyed the towers, resetting his shield.
Even with the chaos, the build proved itself. Sustained fire on weak points whittled Vicrim down, and my ship’s healing meant I never had to disengage.
When I ran the Tooling Guidance version, I still had no problem finishing him off, though it took slightly longer due to reduced defensive bonuses.
Why This Build Works So Well
Piercing Damage: Bypasses Vicrim’s bubble shield.
Sustained Healing: Nashcar’s Ghastly Mending keeps you in the fight without repairs.
Stationary Combat Bonuses: Wormh armor turns half sails into a defensive powerhouse.
Synergy Between Furniture & Weapons: Every enhancement feeds into explosive, burning, or piercing weapon performance.
Final Thoughts
If you’re tired of long, chaotic Vicrim fights, this Frigate + Nashcar build is your ticket to fast, efficient kills. Just remember the golden rule:
With proper aim and positioning, you can:
Sustain your health through damage
Shred his defenses with piercing fire
End the fight before other players can slow you down
Whether you run the Wormh armor for maximum defense or the Tooling Guidance variant for flexibility, this setup will make you a terror on the seas-and Vicrim’s worst nightmare Skull and Bones Silver.
Pro Tip: If you really want consistent runs without random players sabotaging the fight, try finding a coordinated group or running during off-peak hours. That way, you control the pace-and the loot.
