I think most FCs will find teleport reduction not worthwhile. Some napkin math: if you teleport 20 times per day and each teleport costs 1000g, you'd only be saving 3k (I think it's 15%, does anyone know?) per person with those generous numbers. Compare that to saving 1 food (if you eat at least 3 end game food per day at 5k-20k each). Even if you don't raid and don't need end game food, just outright selling the deep green cluster may be worth more than the collective savings from teleport buff if clusters are selling on your MB. They're about 170k on my server, but even at 100k each, you'd need 900 people to make up for the cost of 9x clusters. There's also the opportunity cost of that action slot to consider.

I think for very large FCs full of leveling characters, the teleport buff may be worthwhile for gil savings (but leveling FCs should run xp up and stat up, even if they're only rank 2). But outside of that, you're likely to get a better return from selling the clusters.

If you get Recreation, do you get more MGP for selling cards and collecting Mini cactpot prizes?

it doesnt work for cards

[Phantasmage]

Yes on mini cactpot, no when selling cards (according to ServerCollaps' post). It also works with the Cactpot (consolation) prize

Is there any way to obtain more favourable ratings? Most of my airships ratings are B and C.

The Rating that shows is just the amount of bonus exp you get. And most of the time its just showing the rating on the last sector you visited. So don't worry too much about it ^^

Yea, the rating itself is not the important part as it's an arbitrarily assigned letter, but the bonus exp that you get can influence the rating (namely on the last sector visited I think is what people's voyages suggested?). If you were wondering how to increase your bonus exp, you want to increase your retrieval stat (and also maybe surveilance stat?), as your ship gets more exp for bringing back larger quantities of items.

Its not just the quantities but as well if you get dual items and what winds show up. But then you can get high winds optimal retrieval on both items and still get an Abysmal (Which rates as C and gives no bonus exp) in the end... so, meh rng is rng ^^

The letter grade shown is just based on the sector rating you received from the last sector you visited. Abysmal = C or B, Substandard = B or sometimes A, Satisfactory = A or rarely S, Decent = S or very rarely SS, Outstanding = SS. Only the last sector matters for the letter. But, as others have said, that letter means/does nothing.

But, if you do want to get higher letter grades for some reason, there are two things you can do. First, your per-sector rating goes up on average as your Favor stat goes up. Second, your per-sector rating goes down as you visit later sectors. Your best chance to get an SS rating would be to visit sector 01 last with a Tatanora Forecastle. Your worst chance would be to visit sector 16 with a Bronco Forecastle, or sector 22 with an Enterprise Forecastle (you need at least 90 surveillance to visit sectors 17-22). So either raise your Favor, or go to earlier sectors, or both.

Do I have to do anything specific to unlock Sector 13, 14 & 16? I have 11 & 12 unlocked and have been doing them with a Full Enterprise Build and I haven't unlocked anything beyond Sector 12.

Sectors 13 and 14 unlock from 11. Sector 16 unlocks from 12. Other than that, it's pure RNG.
