So i read in previous post someone mentioned to go with "CUSyC"

I made the syldra part as thats all i needed, my question is, will this sub help with getting any rare items and gets to check the sites twice?

I just sent it out on Deep Sea-Site 7 and Rimiala Trench for kamacite ore at the same time.

Im hoping to also send it out to get the colored rocks (forgot name sorry)

does anyone else have any other good subs?

Edit: what makes it where additional anomalies arent detected? i send my sub out to get otters and i sometimes get this message, what makes this happen? my favor is well over the good amount for 2 trips

higher favor is just an indicator of chance to get more than one hit at a sector. it's not guaranteed.

With high enough favor you'll get two chances, but the second chance can come up "CSCFIFFE" (Current sub condition found insufficient for further exploration). Unfortunately this result seems to be entirely random and can be different for different sectors, as far as I've been able to tell (and I've looked at a LOT of different variables trying to reduce those messages, to no effect.) For Deep Sea Sector 7, the chance of getting "CSCFIFFE" on the second attempt appears to be a flat 40% chance no matter what you do. No, sub condition doesn't affect it. No, the weather on the first attempt doesn't affect it. NOTHING I've found changes it. (And yes I'm very frustrated by that!)

The table in the first page is missing which sector unlocks sub #2.

I know this was already asked but I'll ask again .. Minimum surv/favor for Salvaged Coinage? I've been visiting Wreckage of the Headway alongside of Deep Sea Site 7 for months now and no luck with the coinage, but I've gotten about five otters so far. Got Undersea Spoils the other day tho:



Ship has 150 Surv 155 Favor iirc.

I've never farmed for this item, but the minimum Surveillance for the Crystal Boules appears to be 155, so try boosting that stat I would say.

I was actually mistaken. The sub had 155 Surv, 140 favor. Three of my subs have 155, one has 150 Surv. Guess I've just been really unlucky or the requirement for the Coinage is even higher. I wonder if it is, just based on the fact that I never ever even see the Coinage on sale on my server. Any idea on the surv required for Colossus Slab? Surely not over 155, but I wonder if it's under 155?

Here's my latest trip on 155 surv sub. Hit 2 nodes on all locations .. too bad the yields were lackluster aside from the Boule:

The Colossus Slab requirement can't be too high as Neolith Island is only a two star location and has been available since pretty early in Stormblood, when only a few ship parts were available. As for the coinage, I've heard that people aren't farming it because the item it makes, Bag of Booty, is pretty small and not very much in demand for housing, so it doesn't move even when it is available.
