One of my TC Merchants has the 'feeble' trait. I have 4 lifeboats; should I be worried? Are lifeboats consumed if they save someone?

AFIK lifeboats aren't consumed if they save someone.

Lifeboats are consumed when used. Afaik it was in the same update that changed randoms to one per day.

I've never had my lifeboats be used, even when it says "one of the crewmembers was found drifting in a lifeboat"

I had a crewmember saved a few days ago, and all my ships still have an active lifeboat, so i guess it's still permanent.

It is definitely still permanent. 100% sure of that. Also, they haven't fixed randoms to give a completely random reward. You have an extremely high chance of getting a reward if it's your only noncapped reward. I have gotten adv rerolls at an 80% clip since the pop II update(and no, those were not in any way changed then).

90% of the time I get Random Rewards that are already capped. I've been trying to save up 3 of each stat boosters, I am at 1 morale booster and 1 seafaring booster...

Never use any booster or any crew/captain rerolls. It's just stupid- they provide little to no advantage. Voyage and adventurer rerolls are the only ones that provide a tangible advantage. Just a shame that voyage rerolls are partially broken.

Well, for the trio finale they would be very handy. :s I'm at about 70% without boosters, I would like to maximise my chances.

It's not even smart to use them for that.

So the only smart way is to avoid them? :/

I dunno about that man. I've had several (3 or 4) randoms since I started bothering to do em after POP-2 that essentially gave me nothing and far more that only gave me one thing that wasn't capped. It's like, why do I even bother... -.-

That's the whole point- to get the one thing that isn't capped. Adv rerolls, voyage rerolls(and FotS) actually make a difference.

They're permanent wich is why they should be taken off the random drop table once you get four. So annoying to have one pop up as reward for a random.

More often than not I just get nothing though... Actually happened again tonight.  :(

Or leave them until later zones where you get better crews.

As i said, i've had an overall 70-80% of adv reroll, about 85% overall that i get something. All capped except for adv and voyage(and sometimes fots when i used it on story missions).

 

Passed. I would've raged hard if it failed. Superior cape & ring now, though.

WOW 50 

 

8 SPICE N FIVE OTHERS

I remember when I did mine I got 71% using the best pincer setup with a FOTS, JM and max boosters.

And i did mine at like 63%. Actually, i did both the other trio finales at similar percentages and didn't fail either of those. The fact of the matter is, you are giving away an excess of 1-2k cotta and chance to save you from poor rerolls for a 20% increase of successrate on one mission. Totally idiotic, but to each their own.

As much as I despise this... YOLO!

I think the reason people don't want to fail the trios is because they are fairly rare, and when you do them, you're going to plomp on a merchant and a fots... Which is reason enough to save up the boosters and good crew so you don't waste them

2 days in a row trio fails at 76% and 82% after boosts ... 50 anc bone trio ... got them 2 days in a row and both failed lol...
