You can always sail against a current, but your speed will be reduced significantly.If only one ship is in the current, this may cause the ships to pull apart and end the boarding action early. When boarding while in a current, the current will continue to push both ships along.Being pulled to the middle of a Maelstrom is certain death, and will crush even the toughest ship. This pull gets stronger the closer you get to the center. Unlike regular currents, Maelstroms don't just push you along - they also suck your ship down toward the center of the Maelstrom.

Maelstroms are huge swirling circular currents. When powerful currents form in a particular area, they create a Maelstrom. Smart use of currents is essential to effectively moving around the map and can provide a big advantage in combat. Entering a current will speed your ship along in the direction of the current - or slow you down if you're sailing against it.

Currents appear as streaks of rough, white water moving in a certain direction. Maelstrom Currents & maelstroms: Maelstrom's ocean is constantly moving, and is home to many powerful currents. red area - the area dead waters will expand to next.gold star - boons (upgrades) which can be picked up.
