Airship Guide

[jameseoakes]

If I remember correctly, Yoshi said there wouldn't be any more updates to airships. There "may" be something else along the lines of submarines coming. Since it wasn't at launch I don't think it will be before 4.1. But who knows...

That's rather sad, I guess they might add some more when they do the housing update maybe

I was just wondering the last time this was fully updated? It's still my go to guide because it's so complete, was just wondering what I'm missing cause I wasn't in charge of these until recently

[Dycloide]

I think nothing changed ..

Did some missions since SB and no new items.

I think the first few posts are about 95% up to date. It doesn't have the last sectors added to it or some of the drops from the last two patches of HW but there's been no large scale updates really. There's a post a couple pages back with the added sectors if you need them. I also remember someone talking about hosting a google doc with updated info as well but I don't know how up to date that is.

But I think you're correct in that the OP isn't updating this anymore.

Neither of us are, really. I am back, sort of, but if I have the time to update a guide, it'll be my desynth guide. Though, if someone else wants to post updated information for the graphics in the OP, I have edit access to them. I just don't have the time to do the research necessary to update them myself.

so how does Wind effect your airship returns? None/High/Turbulent

what exactly does Surveillance/Favor provide for end game retrievals?

[Alien_Gamer]

That information is in the first two posts. Wind effects are a modifier for your success rate. Surveillance gates access and "in theory" increases your chances of finding things. Favor is rumored to increase chances of HQ and/or more items. I don't think there's been any rigorous testing to determine how the stats perform though.

You will want to basically use the Frugel Frighter design from page 1 of this thread.

I personally use these two designs:

1. 1. Enterprise-type Hull
   2. Bronco-type Sail
   3. Tatanora-type Forecastle
   4. Odyssey-type Aftcastle
2. 1. Invincible-type Hull
   2. Bronco-type Sail
   3. Tatanora-type Forecastle
   4. Tatanora-type Aftcastle

The first design is faster but returns the same amount of booty as the second one. RNG of mission success is a bigger factor than the ship design.
