That said, later in the game you can take control of manufactories and make them work for you. Under your control, manufactories will passively earn you pieces of eight, which are valuable currency in the game. So, how does one take control of manufactories?
How to Unlock Manufactories
As you seize control of the high seas, you’ll want to start taking control of manufactories. You can take control of manufactories by taking part in a hostile takeover or through a legendary heist.

Hostile Takeovers are PvPvE events where you attack an outpost with a manufactory. To unlock a manufactory, you have to take control of the outpost and destroy the towers while defending yourself.

Legendary Heists
