Airship Guide

I have made 6 trips and no discovery, I wouldn't call it 50/50.

In an attempt to unlock diadem hard, we went to sector 21 and 22. Both sectors gave us cassia logs which were only from sectors 14-16 before the patch.

That's interesting! I think they were the only one of the airship-crafting mats that gained an additional use in the new recipes, although I might be mistaken.

Thanks for all the reports guys!

Has anyone seen a screenshot to confirm that diadem hard can also be unlocked from sector 21? We managed to unlock it after four trips to sector 22 (single sector trip).

I wish I had taken a screenshot at the time but yesterday one of my airships came back from a trip to Sectors 18 > 21 and both of the sectors gave the message saying Diadem (Hard) was unlocked. Have not yet seen any reports of someone getting it from 18. Tried to pull it up to screenshot but the unlock is no longer displaying when re-viewing it x.x

This is really interesting XD I wonder if it might just be the case that any sector above a certain rank has a chance to unlock it, that might explain why we are getting reports of it being unlocked from more than one sector.

Yeah, I would imagine those of us who didn't manage to unlock it our first trip should probably have it unlocked on the second trip out, so I'm really not worried about it.
My bugger concern is, why gate an area designated as free company content behind an RNG gate, regardless of the trivial nature of the rng. I'm not sure why it wasn't just am automatic unlock for FC's with high level airships.

It just seems rather silly.

3 airships returned from sector 22 and still no Diadem discovered, #%!& this RNG...

Edit: diadem unlocked, took 5 trips, unlocked with a single trip to sector 22.

RNG maybe but listen guys! Diadem HM is in between 21 and 22. I unlocked it from 21 and then my airship commenced to Sector 22 (22 did not unlock it! it was 21.) Looking at the end of the report does not show that. That end shows what all the sectors unlocked so looking in the report has the info. Save yourselves the trouble and do sectors 21 and 22. Have a decent Forecastle for discovery, Rig for speed and you should not need many trips! I have read a lot of ppl debating. Either your ship will discover it in route from Sector 21 to 22 or Leaving 22 and coming home.

Airship just got back from it's second attempt at unlock the Diadem HM and...no dice. We've been RNG'd again :/

I did both buddy, sent an airship to sector 22 and 21 and sent another airship to sector 22 alone, and both failed even with a forecastle of 100 and above so what can i say... fucking RNG

We unlocked diadem hard on day 1. Sector 21 pre-patch flight. When it came back less than a day after maint, diadem hard was available.

My FC has 4 airships, I sent them to sector 6 and 13 mostly to try get the Dravanian Mote to finish up the moogle house skin. So far no luck, it seems to be a rare item... Sector 21 gave 4 Wind Silk. Sadly that's all I have to report for now. I'm quite annoyed by the rng bottleneck of needing to get items and Diadem unlock. Good luck grinding and keep the reports coming guys!
