===== Section 64: Building Upgrades 1: Bars =====
The bar, located northwest of the entrance portal, is owned by Surula and is used to attract captains and adventurers.

On Thursdays, players can talk to Surula for a gossip voyage, resulting in the players' 3rd offered voyage to be replaced with 1 highly rewarding resource voyage. Players who exhaust all of their standard voyage rerolls before asking Surula will get 1 extra voyage reroll. The gossip voyage is influenced by region you are focused on, but it is not guaranteed.

This upgrade affects the Port Upgrades score in the Captain's Log, with +10 port score per upgrade.

I recommend Luxurious Bar in Bowl Region and Ostentatious Bar in Shield Region.

===== Section 65: Building Upgrades 2: Offices & Workshops =====
=== Offices ===
The office, located northeast of the entrance portal, houses Duncan and John Strum after the tutorial. Office upgrades unlock more ships (max of 4), which can be used to send out more voyages simultaneously.

This upgrade affects the Port Upgrades score in the Captain's Log, with +10 port score per upgrade.



=== Workshops ===
The workshop, located in the northeast corner of the port, is unlockable by reaching the Hook region of the Eastern Lands. Once built, the building consists of a workbench, anvil, bank box, scrimshaw crafter, and cooking station. The workbench and anvil can be found just outside the building.

This upgrade affects the Port Upgrades score in the Captain's Log, with +10 port score per upgrade.

XP boosts from upgrades are only applied when making trade good specific items such as bonus smithing experience for making Tetsu armor and bonus Fletching experience for creating scrimshaws. The boost does not apply to any regular skilling inside of the workshop. In addition, the anvil, workbench and cooking station do not allow one to create anything but the trade good rewards (ex. you cannot smith elder rune bars on the anvil).

The soup creation station at Fort Forinthry's kitchen (Tier 3 at Level 85 Construction), shares the Revamped workshop's 20% XP boost in addition to the 5% XP boost from Tier 3 kitchen.

You have access to a bank chest starting with the 1st upgrade: Refitted Workshop.

===== Section 66: Building Upgrades 3: Lodgings & Shipwrights =====
=== Lodgings ===
Lodgings are located in the southeast corner of the port and attract better quality crew members when upgraded.

This upgrade affects the Port Upgrades score in the Captain's Log, with +10 port score per upgrade.

I recommend Luxurious Lodgings in Pincers Region and Mariner Lodgings in Shield Region.






=== Shipwrights ===
The shipwright is located in the southwest corner of the port and improves the total adversity percentages of all the player's ships. The bonuses are applied to the ship's total stats (including those added by the crew and captain), not just the stats of the ship itself.

This upgrade affects the Port Upgrades score in the Captain's Log, with +10 port score per upgrade.

I recommend Luxurious Shipwright in Pincers Region and Maritime Shipwright in Shield Region.

===== Section 67: Building Upgrades 4: Warehouses =====
The warehouse, located in the northwest corner of the port, is the storage building for all of the player's goods. Upgraded warehouses give greater bonuses to voyage resource rewards. The warehouse is home to Felix the Black Marketeer, who allows players to spend gold coins on resource goods such as Chimes or Bamboo to Azure. He can also repair ships instantly for 20K gold coins each repair hour remaining (ex: 61 minutes would cost 40K gold to repair), negating the normal waiting period.

This upgrade affects the Port Upgrades score in the Captain's Log, with +10 port score per upgrade.

===== Section 68: Building Upgrades 5: Totems =====
There are 6 types of totems that can be built in any of the 4 hotspots. Each type of totem provides a unique bonus to the port. Players can build more than 1 of each type (with diminishing returns for each subsequent), and the effects do stack.

This upgrade does NOT affect the Port Upgrades score in the Captain's Log.

Totem hotspot 1 is located west of the portal.
Totem hotspot 2 is located south-east of the warehouse.
Totem hotspot 3 is located between the bar and office.
Totem hotspot 4 is located west of where Umi stands.

===== Section 69: Building Upgrades 6: Icons & Portals =====
=== Icons ===
The 3 icon hotspots, at the south ends of the 3 piers, increase the chance of attracting different adventurers to the port. Each icon costs 1,000 chimes to build. The player may build more than 1 of the same kind of icon, and the effects do stack.
See Section 33: Adventurer Icon Mechanics for details.


Note that to build a certain adventurer's icon, not only do you need the corresponding skill, but also to have successfully completed that adventurer's 1st story mission (Meet the ___).

This upgrade does NOT affect the Port Upgrades score in the Captain's Log.

Icon Hotspot 1 is located on the west pier.
Icon Hotspot 2 is located on the middle pier.
Icon Hotspot 3 is located on the east pier.

At endgame ports and having completed everything - If you are just aiming for gold (Scrimshaws via Ancient Bones), build 2 Biologist and 1 Missionary icons.







=== Portals ===
Portal upgrades change the look of the portal both inside the port and outside in Port Sarim. These changes are COSMETIC only and have no effect on the performance of the port. Buying a certain cosmetic style does NOT unlock it for unlimited use. For example, if you purchase the Ornate Portal for 250 Bamboo and then switch back to the Standard Portal design, it will cost you 250 Bamboo once again to switch back to the Ornate Portal design.

This upgrade does NOT affect the Port Upgrades score in the Captain's Log.
