Scurrying around the seas in search of resources is an important part of Skull and Bones, as players start with empty pockets and make their way to the top of the pirate big leagues. As such, players undertake many adventures in search of fruitful plunder, and Shellac is one such item they look out for.

Players can gather Shellac by following the instructions outlined below.

  • Go to the Strait of Harimau, located on the map's far east side, since it is the best spot to find Shellac by pillaging.
  • Look for villages governed by the Dominion of Rempah in the Strait since they are more likely to have Shellac. Approach your chosen village and select the "Pillage" option.
  • Prepare for battle, as you'll need to smash the town's watchtower and resist any hostile ships.
  • Once the pillaging is finished, gather your crewmates to claim the treasure, which may include Shellac.
