Hi, Scorin here with another video, and today I am going to cover shipping updates. We did get the buff there to the dust. Now, a lot of people are feeling like this is a nerf, myself included a little bit, so I will be playing a little bit around with the shipping updates. So, I feel like saving up is a little bit better now, and we can look at a video here from Ben in a second of him doing a 50 million shipment. So, if we look here, this is 8 hours ago, and you can see he has a very large shipment, a ton of bars, a ton of grain, and this is to Ribbon F, so that it doesn't have a lot of risk. Obviously, you can do the longer journeys, not 100% sure it was more worth it there, but a lot of people are sending to Ribbon Fell. There is a nice cheat sheet on Reddit made by Terra Om Make, which has some ideas of like obviously this been known for a while.

So by sending to ribbon fell, you're getting scarabs. So what a lot of people are doing right now is they're sending their small shipments very, very often to ribbon fell. I am currently sending a larger shipment to calar. I think it's just a 5 million one, but I've had decent success with 5 million ones. So let's look at Ben's 50 million shipment here. This is a very large one, um, two pages, two six, maybe some good rare gear. I don't know what a scam. Oh, that's good. That's so he does get two sacred orbs. Sacred orbs are really rare. Only gets one Mir Shard. Mir Shard is rare, but for 50 million, you'd probably be maybe he got unlucky. He actually might have um, and only six divines. Now I sent a 5 million shipment and I also got six divines. And obviously I could send the 5 million shipment 10 times, right? So I would have gotten with the same amount on average. We just don't know what is RNG and what isn't, but

Either way, that was definitely quite bad. There's none of the super rare scarabs here as well. But yeah, um, did want to look through that 'cause that did look quite disappointing. So what I've been sending, I actually took a screenshot. I'll show that here in a second. Um, but I'm doing some experimental shipments right now. And what I'm going to be doing is I'm going to be continuing sending small shipments to Ribbon Fell. Um, because in Ribbon Fell, you are getting um, the scarabs, but you're also getting the runes. Whereas uh, if you stand here, you're getting uh, tattoos. And I do like tattoos and I have a lot of good ones. But uh, I probably just want to focus more on power runes now. So I'm going to keep sending very regularly to Ribbon Fell um, to hope to get power runes and stuff like that. Um, this will be small shipments. I'm probably going to do 200 of each bar, a th000 of each um, plant. And I'm going to do 30,000 dust, let's say.

'Cause that's very easy to maintain. Maybe honestly, maybe even only 10,000, because then I can save up a lot of dust for these larger shipments. So, I did make a little image AAL ship science. So, this is what I've sent out. I've sent out a longer one to Kigin. I'm with my boat. My okay boat is to Ribbon Fall. This is going to be doing regular shipments. I will just be doing both of these with regular small ones. But I just wanted to do some science with 10,000 of each. And then here with C Valor, I'm doing a larger one. This is 5 million, roughly 1 million dust. Now, people are saying dust falls off after it's the equal value. So, if you're sending 5 million, you can send up to 5 million dust. Can't keep that up, right? Uh, so I will need to continuously harvest dust now. But here we are sending a lot of this. So, I don't have that one ready yet. I will um look at that later.

but here we have the ship, a successful return from ribbon fell. So, this is the sort of like medium but close one. It is pretty good value. I think it was 1 or 1.5 million. So, let's look at that now. I have zero Divine orbs, um, no Rune of power, and definitely not a very exciting shipment here. There's nothing like really crazy, but whatever. Um, none of the rares seem very good. Good. Got some random gems. It's very me. Nothing really exciting here, and to just whatever. So, we'll see. Hopefully, my larger shipment will be good, and then I'm going to spam those smaller shipments hoping for ruin of power RNG, because you can still get that on the smaller ones. I'm not a huge fan of the way it is now after the changes. Can we have changes for our changes? Um, but I'm going to now send, oops, my that, and then I'm going to send this. That is 100,000. I'm probably not going to send 100,000 dust. I'll send 10,000, and I'll do these.

as regular shipments and uh just fish for some power RS with RNG so especially if you can U maintain the dust it is worth sending obviously uh and I did start making a lot more gold during tier 17 so I will be probably doing my mappers as well now but either way that's where we're at so far obviously there is going to be a lot of signs coming out you know like wle zigy steel everybody is still playing around zigy uh sorry steel is still doing his normal strategy of sending like the 200 of each bar thousand of each uh grain and sending that to um ribbon F the closest one and uh just fishing for power RS or tattoos in um naku so that is definitely still working but um I didn't have much RNG with that after the Patch but it's also like very low sample size so hopefully it'll still be okay I definitely feel like I was getting more divines before the patch with those small shipments um we'll see maybe DDD

will make some other future updates, but either way, this is my update on what I'm doing with boats. Uh, and then I'll just be saving up for a 5 million one now, and again, that I'll send to Calgar while my other ships are doing fast short runs to Ribbon Fell. Hope this helps you. Let me know in the comments what you guys are doing, 'cause this is definitely not figured out yet, especially after the patch. So, thanks for watching. Sub if you like the video, but more importantly, try to die less than I do.
