Was your 110 retrieval during clear and calm seas still returning with "Poor Retrieval levels"?

Any one currently sending a C,SY,C,SY sub out on missions able to provide reports?

Just got my ship back with that build and got the poor rating, seems like the RNG weather heavily affected it. Sending it back out, same route.


New Item for Rimilala Shelf

6 Empty Clusters

"Undersea Spoils" and "Crystal Boule" found in the Stone Temple. Sub parts are CCSyC

Can't seem to get the embedded image to work.

In regard to what Favor does: I did a bunch of test runs and data gathering last spring, and with a variety of builds the main thing I discovered was this:

Favor of 90: Ships got two "rolls" (could bring back two items from each sector visited)
Favor below 90: Ships got one roll per sector

My conclusion was that a high favor gave more "bites of the apple", so to speak. I can't tell if it affects the odds that each roll will get you something very rare, but it does appear to determine how many rolls you get.

If you click the image on imgur to where it brings up all the links at the side, just copy the bbcode and paste that into your post where you want the image.

Since you can have zero and negative speeds with new parts, I just tried it out. They are treated as having a speed of 1.

3x and 2x Battlecraft Materia V found in the Rimilala Shelf (V). Shiptype CWWC.

Unrecorded items bolded for clarity.

Side-Note: It feels like the Favor speculation of it being the stat that determines whether a ship makes multiple attempts at a single destination may have something to it. at 105 Favor, my ships are making between 1 and 2 attempts at the Rimilala Shelf (V) and the Flickering Dip (Y). One of the ships took a couple bad-weather events, so I'm wondering if Favor is possibly used as a form of HP value?

So the last sector for airships had a mount exchange item. I'm wondering if one of the last sub sectors has a mount available that no one has seen yet. Can only wait and see I guess.

I doubt it. They only added 3 mounts with the latest patch and we already know where those mounts come from. With the vast amount of FC's and submarines being sent out someone would definitely have gotten one by now as well. They may still add something though since we will get like..3 or 4 smaller patches still? Either that or maybe they will add something in Shadowbringers.
