Submersible Information Thread

[Odd]

I tried searching for this info but couldn’t find anything from after 5.0. What are the best parts for subs these days?

[DrWho2010]

depends on what you are going for in what sectors. there is no one true "BIS" submarine build.

do you want to bring back a lot of items from sectors? have high retrieval.
do you want to bring back rare items from sectors? have high surveillance.
do you want your subs to come back faster? have higher speed.
do you want to visit a lot of zones in one trip? have higher range.
do you want the chance of hitting up a zone twice in one go? have high favor.

each zone has specific breakpoints for each rating. do the research and then use the sub builder tool to figure out the build that works for what you want to accomplish.

Going to crosspost some info here for submariners that only frequent the Official Forum:

Current Max Surveillance Needed: 195
Current Max Favor Needed: 185

    #Hull  #Stern  #Bow  #Bridge   Surv.  Retr.  Speed  Range  Favor    Cost

1. [  C+     U+     Y+     Y+   ]   195    90     70     178    185    80 / 80
2. [  C+     U+     Y+     C+   ]   195    90     110    138    180    80 / 80

1. Slow Double Dipper - C+U+Y(+)Y+

The only fit that can double dip current end-tier sectors. Packs enough Surveillance to find any item in current maps. Fire and forget for 4 day trips.
Y Bow upgrade is optional but recommended for 5 more speed.
Items Specialized
Plum Paper Parasol, Hard to Miss Orchestrion Roll, Gemseeker's Pack
Sea of Jade Route

H > G > F > D  | 3d 20h 6m
H > G > F      | 3d 8h 32m

2. Generalist - C+U+Y(+)C+

Double dips all except the last three end-tier sectors. Packs enough Surveillance to find any item in current maps. Has a bit more speed for faster returns and the use of Diskz's Calculator is recommended for your own routes.
Y Bow upgrade is optional but recommended for 5 more speed.
Items Specialized
Silver Dasher, Meerkat, Aurelia Polyp, Colossus Slab, Abroader Otter
Sea of Jade Route

H > G > F      | 2d 4h 30
G > F          | 1d 17h 8m
A > D > E      | 2d 1h 16m
C > E > D      | 2d 1h 11m
E > D          | 1d 15h 49m

3. No Modified - CUCC

You're not going to be double dipping, but at least you'll be able to find any item in current maps on the cheap. Low on range but hits two sectors in roughly two days. Use Diskz's Calculator for your own routes.
Upgrading to one of the above fits is recommended.
Sea of Jade Route

G > F          | 1d 20h 3m
D > F          | 1d 17h 23m
G > H          | 1d 16h 56m

For more info on what the destinations mean, please see the current map for the letter markings as posted in the OP of this thread:

You know, we really need a little lore mammet or something for these things. I'd love to know just who or what Rogo-tumu-here is.

I've been curious enough to look it up and Rogo-Tumu-Here and Tangaroa are mythical creatures in Polynesia.

I also want to thank everyone for all this sub info. I would be imposible for me otherwise...

Silver Dasher available from Rogo-Tumu-Here's Haunt and Aurelia Polyp from Sea of Jade 1

Maybe I'm missing something blatantly obvious here but what does the "Y" stand for in your submersible builds? C is coelacanth, U is unkiu, but Y? I'm at a total loss.

Y stands for Syldra. S already taken by Shark.

[Shadygrove]

New destinations and sub levels coming soon!

Time for a bump.

[Espritduo]

Presumably the new Syldra-class sub minion is from one of the new spots, so get subbin!
