how do i get to deep sea site 7? i went and used the CWSC build now, and sent to central rimilala trench since it says thats how its unlocked, is there any requirements to unlocking DSS7?or is just rng?

I just went like two weeks without discovering a zone only to discover Deep-Site 6 and The Wreckage of the Headway in the same run using CCWC and had the WUUW sub come back a few hours later having discovered the Rimilala Shelf and the Glittersand Basin. The same CCWC sub has discovered everything else except the remaining level 50 sites and Concealed Bay (which was being stubborn, so I moved on). Your CWSC build has more surveillance than either of mine, so there shouldn't be anything stopping you from discovering it.

For what it's worth, I discovered all of the last 6 zones using my sub with all shark parts. It didn't take more than 4 trips for any of them.

It's pure rng.

I sent my sub to get dss7 and got on first try XD now searching for otters

[EspeonCortez]

I dont see it anywhere but has anyone made a table for all rare items or whatever items for their requirements to be able get them? I want to get Otter,kamacite etc etc so was hoping to see some information based on what i need to build to get such items. this thread is so long so was hoping it might be somewhere XD

Not lazy i swear :sweat:

Any have a good build for getting the rarer items in the newest sectors? I'm working on updating the subs for my FC before ShadowBringers for something to do

In my opinion, the CUSyC submarine is the best general-purpose submarine for rare-item collecting. It has 155 surveillance (minimum required for finding those blue/green boules) and 140 favor (enough to get up to 2 attempts per sector for every sector). The speed is respectable at 75. The retrieval is kinda low, so it's not great at hauling back the kamacite ore, but if you're after the boules, plundered treasures, salvaged coin, undersea spoils, colossus slabs, marine wax esters, and abroader otters (though for otters only, you should be CUUC), the CUSyC is the sub for you.

In my opinion, the CUSyC submarine is the best general-purpose submarine for rare-item collecting.

I'm inclined to agree with this sentiment. Testing this fit out compared to the CCSyC fit yields results that are a bit more advantageous with regards to common farming routes. Considering the extra range that CUSyC gains and the inclusion of the extra Surveillance to acquire the two new Boules, I'll be refitting my own ships to this setup.

CCSyC
Route 1: Neolith Island (I) > Deep-Sea Site 3 (E) > Deep-Sea Site 7 (W) = 1 Day, 18 Hours, 47 Minutes
Route 2: Deep-Sea Site 7 (W) > The Rimilala Shelf (V) = 1 Day, 22 Hours, 53 Minutes
Route 3: Flickering Dip (Y) > The Rimilala Shelf (V) = 2 Days, 3 Hours, 39 Minutes

CUSyC
Route 1: Deep-Sea Site 7 (W) > Sunken Vault (AD) > Stone Temple (AC) = 3 Days, 1 Minute
Route 2: Neolith Island (I) > Deep-Sea Site 3 (E) > Deep-Sea Site 7 (W) = 1 Day, 20 Hours, 50 Minutes
Route 3: Deep-Sea Site 7 (W) > The Rimilala Shelf (V) > Flickering Dip (Y) = 2 Days, 21 Hours, 40 Minutes
Route 4: Deep-Sea Site 7 (W) > The Rimilala Shelf (V) > The Wreckage of the Headway (Z) = 2 Days, 20 Hours, 57 Minutes
Route 5: Deep-Sea Site 7 (W) > Sunken Vault (AD) > The Wreckage of the Headway (Z) = 2 Days, 23 Hours, 7 Minutes





Side Note: I'm heavily biased towards a ship fit that will give me voyages closer to a 24 hour interval.

Does anyone know what the minimum surveillance is for getting the Salvaged Coinage from the Wreck of the Headway site? I've been sending four subs with 150 surveillance and 105 Favor just to that one spot over and over for about a month now and not seen a single one. In the same amount of time I saw 2 Abroader Otters before I started focusing solely on getting that coin, which I need two of to even make the bag of booty! There were two coins on the MB before the world transfer BS wiped every coin off of every market on the datacenter, and now I couldn't buy the coins even if I wanted to pay 100mil for each one. Add to the fact that the TOTAL amount of coins ever sold on the entire data center was only 10, most of which came from balmung, and I am looking at never completing my alchemy crafting log.

So yeah, what's up with the Salvaged Coinage? Anyone got one at 150? I have one sub at 155 surveillance, and it has never brought one back either.

What kind of materia returns are people seeing from "Sector 28 (AB)The Rimilala Trench Bottom" in terms of stack size and amounts?

If it's only like 2 per mission, it's really not worth it.

[Janhyua]

Does anyone have exact detail on how to unlock all 4 submarines? can't seem to find any info

1st: no requirement
2nd: Unidentified derelict
