## Usage Patterns

This legendary seafaring specialist is ideal for ships that need to survive prolonged engagements or operate far from port. The combination of massively reduced upkeep costs (-60%), increased hitpoints (+90), doubled self-repair speed (+100), and greatly reduced damage slowdown (-80%) makes Keincaled an excellent choice for capital ships or long-range trading vessels that may encounter pirates.

## Common Pitfalls

- Requires 20,000 fleet strength to unlock the boost effect, so this specialist is not fully effective early game
- As a captain slot specialist, cannot be combined with other captain specialists on the same ship
- The self-repair bonus is most valuable on ships that take damage but survive; for glass cannon builds, other specialists may be more effective
