Does using all HQ mats guarantee a proc to use fewer mats on next phase, or does it only increase the chance of getting one?

How many sharksucker minions are people finding? I found two in like 3-4 missions that included the south trench, so I'm unsure if that's luck or if they're much more common than previous minions. I'll get a better idea as more missions come back, but I'm not terribly patient either.

I haven’t found any and been there at least 6 times with my four subs. I’ve always had poor luck though on finding minions. What build are you using?

Just the normal CUSyC.

Can someone else confirm if 160 favor is enough for the sharksucker minion?

I'm not the first one to report getting the minion with this build in this thread.

1x Sharksucker-class Insubmersible minion found in Southern Charnel Trench. CUSyC Rank 60, 160 Surveillance:

HQ mats have an increased chance of filling the Construction Quality rating (top right of the Material Delivery window). Getting near or meeting 100/100 increases the chance of proccing an Excellent or Outstanding Progress, but it's not guaranteed. My suggestion is to not worry about it because you'll spend more time and effort in achieving HQ mats than the amount of value you could have gotten back. If you do intend to try for it, then attempt to turn in HQ mats for phases prior to expensive turn-ins to save yourself on Darksteel Ingots, Kamacite, Cryptomeria Lumber, and Pure Titanium Plates.

160 Surveillance is enough for the Sharksucker-Class Insubmersible Minion.

I also brought an insubmersible minion back this weekend with a Cossack (CUSyC)

Everyone In your opinion Would it help if a petition thread on the Japanese forums to remove light party restrictions from the workshop was made?

[Chiami]

I would switch sides to Zodiark if it helps to remove the light parts restrictions from the workshop

There has been a thread here since 2015 and getting bumps every year to remember the devs of this issue ... http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...etting-tedious

... but so far we have been 100% ignored it seems. So I support ANYTHING to remind them of what truly makes the workshop so problematic and underused, and how pointless and punishing for smaller FCs the light party requirement is.
