I don't particularly understand the way the loot works with regards to the first thing you find and the second thing you find - if they're different tables or something. But I thought I'd share this result!

Well that's an extremely disappointing extraction yield!

Well, your Mammet filled out that log... Unfortunately for you, I think it's learned sarcasm.


As far as I know, the two drops are calculated independently of each other. My understanding is that the chance of getting a second drop is based only on your Surveillance score, and your chance of getting higher yields is based only on your Retrieval score, and all three checks (1 survey, 2 retrieval) are all independent dice rolls.

But, however it works, I'm fairly certain the cacluation is set up such that you can never get "poor" or "below average" yields from early sectors, and the later the sector, the more Retrieval you need to have the same effect.

Can you post your airship stats pls.

I'm trying to farm zu mounts for my FC and I'm wondering if a high surveillance build is a good idea or not.

Hey there! I've had 2 ships outfitted with Invincible - Tata - Tata - Bronco, and so far we're at 3 Iron Voyage Spoils and 3 Tier V Vitality Materia. I just refitted one of them to Bronco - Tata - Tata - Invincible because I determined the extra Range wasn't giving me access to any other sector I had interest in. The two most recent logs both have the note "extremely disappointing extraction yield" on both of the items they brought back - 27 HQ Dark Chestnut Branch + 1x Vitality V, and 1x Iron Voyage Spoil + 1x Vitality V.

Clearly, I need to meld this Vit to my Mammet so he can carry more back.

My naive presumption was that Favor could impact the likelihood of receiving the rarer items, hence my choice to build like that.

[Lilster]

At least 3 of our ships have brought back iron voyage spoils, surveillance 90, 100, and 136. Can't remember if the 4th has gotten any, so far we've got 6 zus!

I can compete with that!


So, it seems if someone is really lucky he can get 4 Iron voyage spoil at once (Two drops - 2 each.)
