The Astray Ship is the best ship in Lost Ark, featuring the highest speed among all vessels of the same caliber, including decent resistance to all hazardous water types. As one would expect, acquiring such a prize vessel requires a mountain of effort, yet those who put in the time will find their endeavor worthwhile. Nevertheless, there are prerequisites in place before Lost Ark characters embark on their journey to get the best ship in the game.

First, adventurers need to acquire the ability to traverse the seas of Arkesia by completing the quest, "Set Sail!" a mission that marks the end of the East Luterra storyline. Next, Lost Ark fans must reach Level 50 to unlock a specific Daily Quest in Una's Tasks, "Pest Control," which requires players to fend off several pirates from the island of Blackfang's Den. Finally, "She Drifts, Sea Gifts" is another Daily Quest that must be unlocked to acquire one of the necessary parts to build Astray. This daily is accessed by completing "Ratik," a World Quest in Rothun.

For those who aren't aware, Rothun is the capital of Rohendel, a late-game region requiring players to attain an Item Level of 460 in Lost Ark to enter the continent. Moreover, two prerequisite quests, "A New Voyage" and "Wall of Procyon," must also be completed to upgrade the player's ship to Level 2, granting access to Rohendel. Queen Ealyn will present these two quests to adventurers likely after they have finished the entire questline of North Vern.
