How to get a Precision Drilling Bit in Skull and Bones
There are only a handful of surefire ways to obtain a Precision Drilling Bit in Skull and Bones. You can always attack random Dutch Merchant Company ships of higher levels and hope the loot includes one. Or you can put in a bit extra work to guarantee one.
Complete DMC Merchant Convoy events
You can attack DMC Merchant Convoys. These trigger as World Events, which rotate throughout a Skull and Bones season. You'll be informed when one appears on the map, and again when you get close to participate.
These are best handled in a group, but you can still sink some of the ships without actually completing the event. If you board them instead of straight sinking them, you up your chances for a Precision Drilling Bit.
Just make sure you have a ton of food to keep your stamina high. The DMC convoys have several ships guarding them, and it can get very overwhelming with mortar after mortar dropping on you. Keep eating to zoom past the hit zone and take the fight to these ships for the rare item.
