[worldly pewter]

oh these games, yeah this one is different mentality

basically u get a ship max limit break then u have almost 95% of its power
the only p2w aspect is ringing her for more stats that is it

[drifting pecan]

if you like pain, you should play arknight

[cloud fractal]

I’m becoming a geriatric gamer. I my joints can’t handle the pain they used to.

[drifting pecan]

anyway, welcome~

[cloud fractal]

Thanks! Heard lots of good things about the AL community.

[drifting pecan]

welp.. feel free to ask, try to feel out the gameplay first°~°

[worldly pewter]

i m a relatively new player myself but i can guide new comers since i still have a fresh memory of it

boys what is the benefit of running sap type of ammo ? is it against med exclusively
and what sap refers to ?

[urban shard]

why i cannot auto select/recommend ships for my lv100 comission for my lv100+ ships? I have them removed from siren, exercises, fleets, and everything

[soft raft]

the only SAP gun worth running in general is the itallian DD gun

[worldly pewter]

the golden version of this ?

[worldly pewter]

usually i manually select a lvl 100 ship then press auto

[viscid swift]

if you get that message then they're still somwhere

[urban shard]

so this problem applys to everyone then, lv100 ships cannot be auto filled into comission

[viscid swift]

check stuff like old hard mode fleets

[urban shard]

ah, so if they were in any of the hard mode fleets (from ch1 to ch9?..), they may have problem..

[viscid swift]

yes

[still sage]

hello, can anybody help me set up a good deck? i dont know if my is good enough.

[pearl olive]

Are they good or in general worth upgrading?

[worldly pewter]

deck is usually for card games

[still sage]

im not good in english so frgive me

[worldly pewter]

if u have guam where is soyuz uvh and fdg ?

[inner delta]

depend on your ships

[sweet delta]

For what chapter or opsi or boss?

[still sage]

im on world 9.3

[sweet delta]

Get unicorn from guild shop and fully retrofit her quickly.
Campaign Mob fleet: NewJersey, Unicorn, Theseus, Carl, kawakaze (get unique augment), sandiego
Campaign Boss fleet: warspite Essex Enterprise yukikaze Sirius Belfast

But farm the event SP5 instead of campaign for now

Put unicorn and 5 other ships who are below level 120 in your mob fleet for SP5

[still sage]

okay ill try ty ❤️

[pliant acorn]

Hello. is this enough to defeat the boss in ops siren?

[graceful meteor]

should be, Ive done with 150 ish

[pliant acorn]

Thanks bro

[tacit sail]

Are subs as big of a problem in 14-4 as they are in 14-3

[sweet delta]

There's no benefit to going over 203, 203, 156

[sweet delta]

They're the same subs just two levels higher. But you have an ammo node for 3 ammo

[sleek spade]

Is formi u good or no?

[sweet delta]

Only niche to opsi mob fleet if you use akagi muse

[sleek spade]

Hmmm so not really. I got better carriers

I was hoping the slow is better than OG formi

[tacit sail]

K, so hedgehog still a necessity then?

[sweet delta]

Avp and Implac exist

[sleek spade]

While not needing the swordfish would improve her dmg

[sweet delta]

Technically you can clear it with zero ASW, but bringing hedgehog is indeed an amazing idea

[sleek spade]

I dont have implac tho but avp is good so was just wondering if formi u any better cus she can use double torp planes

[graceful meteor]

I think her slow is even worse compared to og

[sleek spade]

Ah that sucks

[rain vine]

youre not beating a guaranteed time stop (assuming fs5) on airstrike with an 80% chance when the ship sinks an enemy

[sleek spade]

Btw is this necessary for 14 or hedgehog would be fine?

[vale spindle]

why not use both if you need it

[rain vine]

throw it on uni

[sweet delta]

14 was powercrept far before this plane released

[sleek spade]

Ah ok I’ll put it on uni

But uni losing dmg makes me sad

[half plover]

do you guys know what the third item is already? or isnt it in shop at all

[sweet delta]

It's gear skin box

[sleek spade]

[half plover]

isnt this gear skin box?

[vale spindle]

huh

[sweet delta]

Trust me

[half plover]

10x 2k = 20k? how is there another?

[vale spindle]

i made a mistake

[still merlin]

Should I replace torp and oxy torp with something else. Laffey for mob chp 15

[graceful meteor]

gear skin box, best investment, trust

[vale spindle]

refresh the page i fixed it

[half plover]

oooh it is your page

thanks

[vale spindle]

yes i am on datamine team and sometimes i fuck up it happens

[half plover]

pro

as a new player would you guys say I should get everything high+mid prio including the augment cores since I dont have augments for all my ships that I use yet

or will I get them soon enough and dont need to play the event stages that long

or is it still good to go for these rewards since the overall rewards go up to 100k points?

[still merlin]

should i use the twin 113 or the proto twin 90 high angle on laffey?

[graceful meteor]

I would get all the rainbow and gold items, except the equipment box, t3 part bp, coin and oil
after that just go back to campaign @half plover

also 55k should be good point to stop

[viscid swift]

I disagree with the shop priority

[pliant acorn]

genuine question. Is this good build for shimekaze?

[viscid swift]

plates and coins are not that high priority whereas augment cores because of how time gated they are take more precedence, either way your goal is not to reach 100k event points

no

[sweet delta]

Besides the cursed +12 gear, gun is wrong for both manual and auto, and AA gun should be staag for manual and probably also staag for auto

/wiki 50 cal

[odd root]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Single_76mm_(3"/50_caliber_gun)

[half plover]

no coins and no oil?

or I should get coin and oil

[sweet delta]

oil from event shop is a great trade if you have time to spend the oil

[half plover]

oh ty

[pliant acorn]

Thanks!

[forest palm]

that's if you auto

[eager mulch]

what if you manual

[pliant acorn]

So the ur dd gun is only for Gun DDs like laffey or yudachi?

[sweet delta]

it's only for most DDs

[haughty pine]

Hi all can I get a quick yes or no answer on if muse formi or noshi are any good? Thx 🙂

[pliant acorn]

Ohh issee thankd

[viscid swift]

not particularly

[haughty pine]

Aw thanks 😔

[pliant acorn]

If ur f2p. Save ur dock for others better ships

I retire all my muse ships and the little ships to save docks XD

[haughty pine]

Just asking on behalf of guildmate idk if he spends

[still merlin]

Is it just me or is Volga’s heal inconsistent compared to like ryuuhou I felt like I got more better heals than Volga

[viscid swift]

well 2/3 are rng so

[still merlin]

Rn my chp 15 back fleet is ryuuhou jersey and uni

Also I had a wtf moment cause I did not realise I had aa radar on shimanto what do I replace it with for chp 15

[sweet delta]

rudder + torp bulge

and i highly recommend ryuuhoun't

[still merlin]

Volga better?

Is it just better dmg or her heal ?

[sweet delta]

far better dmg, better tankiness, and less but still enough heal

[pliant acorn]

Uhmm last question. Can i defeat the hard boss in ops siren using these fleets?

[still merlin]

What would her gear be

[sweet delta]

flapjack tenrai wyvern catapult catapult like most carriers with those slots

[still merlin]

Ah I do not have another tenrai yet farming for one

[pliant acorn]

I have a good amount of T3 ordinance. Which one should i craft first?

[inner delta]

hold first

[eager mulch]

still rocking the double mob fleet set up

[pliant acorn]

I defeated the hard boss using those crapy fleet compo XD

[inland shoal]

3 UR BBs
crappy

[graceful meteor]

no UR front, crappy indeed

[pliant acorn]

This is my crapy fleet XDD. Hey atleast it works

For Modney, is there any fleet more consistently killing than Nugget/Haku/Nanners?

considering that fleet barley kills most of the time not really

ok, I wasn't sure if something using Soyuz might have been found

[opaque yacht]

is the harmony ticket worth getting

[eager mulch]

worth what

[vale spindle]

its free...

you just have to spam both the left and right repeatedly until you get B rank on any song, then you can afk

[opaque yacht]

i played 3 minigames and it only gave me 1 thing

[rain vine]

its timegated

[vale spindle]

you can only get 1 per day up to the cap, which i believe is 4 so far

[opaque yacht]

yeah and i only have 1

[vale spindle]

i guess its 1 per day then

[eager mulch]

max 4 ye

[vale spindle]

Did you get b rank or higher

[eternal moth]

I just use a mouse to click when it's close and I've s-ranked every song so far

[vale spindle]

I could s rank every song but i just go to B rank and wait it out :)

[eager mulch]

I do the new one (blue) on 1x speed hard because i hate myself

[vale spindle]

I don't even play with audio on

[eternal moth]

I don't either

[eager mulch]

neither do I

also exiting too early won’t give it to you, I learned the hard way

[vale spindle]

even if you get b rank? rip

[summer sable]

Do you need to use a specific character for the EX stages

[vale spindle]

believe its just "good ship good"

[knotty garnet]

would this work?

trying to take advantage of event buffs

[rain vine]

pretty sure those buffs are only for event stages

[knotty garnet]

they arent

[elfin hollow]

who should I focus to retrofit Saratoga or Independence?

[digital venture]

do other research ships like uss anchorage counts towards the xp gain for other research

[vale spindle]

as long as the faction + hull type matches up yes!

for example i used odin for my fdg grind

[viscid swift]

Boss fleet, or at least Kazagumo is dead, also Laffey 2 main tanks the mob fleet at the very least

[knotty garnet]

I was thinking of replacing FDG with Zwei for mob fleet and giving her promise paper

[soft raft]

Imo i'd say you'd prob get more use out of Independence in the long run than Saratoga

[knotty garnet]

does this even work on Zwei?

[viscid swift]

Yes

[forest palm]

isn't that meh

[viscid swift]

If you're not 3 starring yes

[soft raft]

isnt that also only really for Lethal 3* comps

[forest palm]

who 3 stars on Lethal

[south sequoia]

Insane people

[forest palm]

impatient fools

[ember totem]

Me

[viscid swift]

Meh, I pretty much just save 3 starring -3 for a few months down the line to see the powercreep

[opaque yacht]

yes i got s rank all the time

why does it say i have too much specialized core if i just bought another bulin to lower the amount

[stark quiver]

5000 a month cap

[opaque yacht]

bruh so i bought a bulin for nothing

so i just have to accept the loss?

[stark quiver]

not really for nothing, save it for a UR

[haughty star]

they are pretty much only used for bulins anyway

[opaque yacht]

i mean i have to throw it the core away

[haughty star]

yah at least this week. resets on monday and new month is wednesday

[knotty garnet]

yes

[ivory linden]

If you care about maxing them you can wait to get your weekly rewards when the month changes, so that the cap will reset.

[grand solar]

What day is OpSi going to reset?

[knotty garnet]

wens

[frank pulsar]

first reset every month

[plain saffron]

0000 1st of every month utc-7

[cloud fractal]

Is not every ship able to be retro’d?

[forest palm]

that's correct, not every ship has a retrofit, you can in fact sort ships by if they do

[cloud fractal]

Okay. And I keep seeing Unicorn, but right now I haven’t had to think about her since I put in a bit of money for the level boost. It’s allowed me to brute force the levels and the event. But now I’m at 5 and obviously having a more difficult time.

So should I retro multiple Unicorns for my fleets, or just max one?

[viscid swift]

Just one, you never need dupes of any ship in AL

[forest palm]

there's no real getting ahead in AL without proper gear

[slow fox]

Liverpool: 77.18 +- 24.76
Devonshire: 78.23 +- 25.88

[knotty garnet]

How hard is 15-2 compared to 15-1

[rocky fjord]

the boss will probably need several resets
else not much dif

[eager mulch]

15-2 boss nuke

[cloud fractal]

Uhhh. Whoops. 🤣 anyway to reset ships and get items invested out of ships?

[viscid swift]

Nope

[cloud fractal]

I may have a dupe Boise and Noshiro u that I invested into because I liked them so much.

[slow fox]

Completely valid reason, mhm.

[cloud fractal]

Last question. Prinz Eugen u. Worth or pass?

[eager mulch]

worth what

[cloud fractal]

Investing in and building.

[viscid swift]

not particularly

[cloud fractal]

Would you be willing to look at what I have and guide me on what I should be focusing on? Seemed straightforward enough, but the more I’ve been watching this, the less it obviously is.

[novel condor]

Prob make a thread and post your docks in it

[viscid swift]

if you're new might want to start and give that a read https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips

[cloud fractal]

I did favorite and read it. I think my main concern is how the initial investments stack up against what I currently have, since I did put a bit of money in. I do have all of the units in there.

[viscid swift]

well post your dock in a thread then

[grand solar]

Ah thank you. Just wanted to know how much time Imhad left to squeeze as much out of AL before reset.

[cloud fractal]

Dock

[atomic abyss]

How long was this meta fight again? 80s effectively?

[soft raft]

yeah
basically 10s shorter than the usual nvm

[graceful meteor]

actual fight is like 75s I think

[icy mountain]

can my portland equip guns that have AP rounds instead of HE rounds?

[graceful meteor]

why not, as long as it's CA gun

[icy mountain]

okay then

[atomic abyss]

Uh
That aside

For rodM
More important for Haku or Nano to get the 4th strike off?

[karmic elm]

Any tips for extreme Aries (Yuki) challenge? Using ships with lots of bullets (Laff-II, Kron, Hindenburg) and HE ammo but it's not working

[rain vine]

you need to time your backline to kill the healers as they spawn

[frank kernel]

The Rodney fight has 10 extra seconds on the fight timer at the start so she can read her cringey poetry to you at the end, so it's still the same overall length

[frank pulsar]

smth like 20s soyuz + double cv + laffii + aurora + hindenburg should work

if not enough bullet count use faster guns

i think some ppl ran autoloader on their vanguard for fast kills

alternatively you can just run standard uss anti light and brute force

[fiery pelican]

Noshiro muse decent?

[frank pulsar]

supposed to be good for torp comp
but torp comp is

[graceful meteor]

sounds like 2019

[soft raft]

Realistically outside of the typical generic "SR Good, Elite meh", everyone on this event banner is basically collection tier in the long run

[ivory crown]

if i already have eugen mu should i even buy one from shop or just focus on other things

[rain vine]

focus on other things

[soft raft]

focus on other things
At that point, the ship copies in the shop are basically expensive Eugen Mu exclusve bullins

[frank pulsar]

is 120 brest or 125 ancho better for w15 boss

[jaunty vault]

why not both

[frank pulsar]

if i do that i have to drop jda

[jaunty vault]

brest ig

[frank pulsar]

soyuz or nj better for w15 boss? zwei kinda just dies but idk about soyuz

[sinful escarp]

where is a good place to farm gray plates?

[haughty cave]

Who should I work on

[frank pulsar]

none, just save your bulin for now and wait until cn anni ur drops

[haughty cave]

Alright bet thank you

[frank pulsar]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/common_resource

[sweet delta]

Soyuz is better but sounds like a fleet issue and if you have a fleet issue with Bisz dying then soyuz also may die

[sinful escarp]

oh, didnt know that exists, thanks

[sweet delta]

I don't think that guide provides any details

Iirc it just says something like "you won't need to worry about gray and blue plates"

[frank pulsar]

theres a section on it

[sinful escarp]

i have around 2k blue and purple plates, but only around 1k gray

[frank pulsar]

eh i better stick to nj then

[jaunty vault]

why would you do that

[sweet delta]

Because delulu has bad aa

[jaunty vault]

heh lulu

[vagrant otter]

I got a promise ring from a mission and I used it on the starter since it was only usable to her. Did I perhaps made a wrong decision?

[eternal moth]

Promise rings are entirely up to you.

[soft raft]

tatical oathing is only a thing if you whale, and that's only relevant in min-maxxing OpSi boss comps

Most of the time people just oath waifu with their free oath rings

[sweet delta]

It's relevant in any late-endgame activity...and opsi isn't endgame

[sinful escarp]

i only oath ships if i like their oath skin

[vagrant otter]

is there a way to see the oath skin in advance? although I quite like Z23 black bridal dress

[sweet delta]

/wiki affinity

[odd root]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Affinity

[viscid swift]

check the wiki, or skin section for each ship

[frank pulsar]

+13 dont increase stats like fp and avi on a weapon right

[viscid swift]

If it's not an aux nope

[frank pulsar]

does support cv contribute to acv

[plain saffron]

test it

[jaunty vault]

it shouldnt

[frank pulsar]

im missing one point of recon value

[jaunty vault]

does your recon turn green when you enter stage

[frank pulsar]

im getting ambushed so no

[plain saffron]

time to +13 eva/avi aux

[jaunty vault]

whats your fleet look like

[frank pulsar]

im just trying out to see if its possible or not, if it isnt ill just wait for better supports and then try again

[jaunty vault]

dont think that is gonna work

[frank pulsar]

regardless i still need to fix ambush issue

[plain saffron]

+13 rudder trust

keep in mind it only take value of 1 fleet, higher one

[frank pulsar]

im cooked then idk which one even have higher value

[jaunty vault]

guam where

[frank pulsar]

i could put rudder over pearl on laffii but feels sus

[frank pulsar]

no bulin, they went to nano

[jaunty vault]

[frank pulsar]

kronk and uvh are in the queue as well

[jaunty vault]

ugh whatever, just follow /w15
this is beyond me

[frank pulsar]

lmao

[viscid swift]

Why Independence over Yorktown 2 in the boss fleet

[frank pulsar]

i need the plane count but i could try swapping yea

[viscid swift]

No like I mean drop Independence and stick like Illustrious in the support fleet

[frank pulsar]

i fixed my recon with +13 rudder

okay

[plain saffron]

i know this is late but just choose 1 fleet then you can see value for each

[frank pulsar]

[terse sinew]

twin 381mm advanced main gun good on anyone?

[plain saffron]

[jaunty vault]

does throwing URs at EX work

what armour is it

[frank pulsar]

will laffii survive or should i swap in shimanto main tank

[cobalt rapids]

try it

mine would survive

also ur sushi gets that low on diamond

[blissful hamlet]

Langley

[jaunty vault]

serenity

[frank pulsar]

they pulled through
but now shimanto dying

[frank pulsar]

shes using hsfcr and aa radar

[blissful hamlet]

What's your plane and vanguard gear

[frank pulsar]

why hyperstare? aa radar is for dmg reduction

[blissful hamlet]

And support fleet planes

[cobalt rapids]

was hyperstaring coz it happens even through hpfaa

[frank pulsar]

im using mostly pancake and some tigercat, support fleet using skyrockets and fw

[blissful hamlet]

[frank pulsar]

[jaunty vault]

do stats from cats affect EX score

[frank pulsar]

cheeky lied to me
indep performs sm better

[jaunty vault]

sm?

[frank pulsar]

so much

[jaunty vault]

vs boss?

what are you using on york2

[cobalt rapids]

indep deals better with naka but if naka nukes ur vg then just reset

but mby xfleet for mob is also valuable

[frank pulsar]

im using tigercat + pancake + tenrai

[blissful hamlet]

Have you try pancake + tenrai + wyvern?

[frank pulsar]

indep is just better, not even close to dying this time

[cobalt rapids]

what was dying last time

[frank pulsar]

everything

i retried a few times and got same result of dying

[cobalt rapids]

makes sense

[jaunty vault]

why does it make sense

[cobalt rapids]

coz indep fast rld deals with naka so vg doesnt get nuked which prob takes 2 long to kill even with jda there to mitigate it early and better aa capabilities than poverty yk2 setup to compensate lulus aa is what i conclude

[jaunty vault]

whos naka

[cobalt rapids]

/wiki naka

the cl that spews the high dmg torps in the beginning

[jaunty vault]

you dare use my own tricks against me 😠

[forest palm]

[cobalt rapids]

your nj is on 457 or mk7?

[frank pulsar]

457, why would i use mk7

[cobalt rapids]

was ur vang even clearing first wave before nj shoots

[cobalt rapids]

because its a good gun ?

[frank pulsar]

but its straight up worse isnt it? i died anyway on third boss

zuikek evaded all my backline dmg

[soft raft]

Wdym worse
It's highly context dependent like with most gear

[sweet delta]

this was first boss?

[frank pulsar]

yes

yorkii couldnt even kill first boss

[cobalt rapids]

wth

are u using subs on bosses

[frank pulsar]

yes

[sweet delta]

sounds like you have a sub, tech, gear, and cat issue

[ornate scarab]

Wyvern or spearfish?

[frank pulsar]

wyvern

[jaunty vault]

for what

[frank pulsar]

so basically im the issue

[sweet delta]

consider doing mobs, boss1, and boss3 with musashi aquila uni laffii jeanne shimanto and stack all rainbow aa on that fleet

[frank pulsar]

ill run soyuz over nj this time then since its only one fight

[sweet delta]

something like soyuz indep persus

[cobalt rapids]

#gameplay-help message good luck

[frank pulsar]

percy > klaudia?

[cobalt rapids]

the point is to stack crossfleets

since boss barely does anything, boss 2 is easy

[sweet delta]

sounds like there's no open path for soup 🍜

[frank pulsar]

not happening anytime soon

[frank pulsar]

stigma is truly the wise
ty

[storm heron]

Sorry if this has been asked before, but how do I finish the last boss?

[cobalt rapids]

click on her

[crimson glacier]

press the boss when you are near the front of the stage

[frank pulsar]

the one in the center is the boss

[storm heron]

Ah I see, thx

[feral sorrel]

What does it mean by the full combo in here? I dont get it

[inner delta]

kill all enemy

[feral sorrel]

Really? That’s it?

Thank you then

[cobalt rapids]

and dont get a C rank or lower

[plain saffron]

obligatory read the ingame tips

now that i read it again the gametips is also useless

[cobalt rapids]

[normal crane]

Should I keep this?

[cobalt rapids]

turn to protocore, by click analyze

[normal crane]

What to buy with protocore?

[inland shoal]

/protocore

[odd root]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/images/equip_misc/Prototype_Core_Guide.jpeg

Funniest thing about the ingame tips is that you can still find information about the SOS system, like a full year (?) after it was nuked

[normal crane]

Thankies

[plain saffron]

is this shown ingame?

[inland shoal]

I think so, no clue where tho

[normal crane]

What does 208 rld mean?

[inland shoal]

You mean what effect that has on your reload time?

[normal crane]

From this

The pr3 gun

[inland shoal]

Oh that says 20s reload

[normal crane]

Ohh ma bad then

So it's good for vanguard and new jersey?

[sweet delta]

I haven't seen this wrecken in the past 4 years

[inland shoal]

Good for any BB tggtyou use to fight a med/heavy boss

[steady beacon]

Can confirm, it's still in the game

Hit help in ship screen and scroll

[inland shoal]

I knew I had read that wrecken before

[woven tendon]

is it worth 3 starring war archive stages?

[inland shoal]

No

[woven tendon]

so get to d3 asap do 60 stages and get out right?

[vale spindle]

yep

good rule of thumb is to only 3 star stages if you have a mission for it

[vagrant otter]

what's a good time to build second fleet? I'm getting bored waiting for morale to restore especially that I have Shinano chan on my one and only levelled fleet

[cobalt rapids]

when u have enough good ships for 2nd fleet and/or you reach w9

[midnight bluff]

For the manjuu karoake lounge minigame, am I supposed to get a certain amount of points for those little diamond markers to be filled?

how to start to get the UR gear at reserach? should i do siren?

or is it just me not getting luck or smt

[plain saffron]

choose correct research, and it's rng

[weak hamlet]

ah like this one?

[inland shoal]

Just that it's there doesn't mean the research is good for getting it tho

[left tiger]

Do i wait for dev lvl 30 for FdG or she is viable in lower dev lvl?

[inland shoal]

Wait

[left tiger]

Alright

[silk edge]

What should i do with this much oil, i dont think il ever run out at this rate its too much i cant claim the weekly pack

[eternal basalt]

Run SP5

[unkempt mortar]

should i take soyuz's gun from uvh and put it onto kearsage

[steady beacon]

In what context?

[unkempt mortar]

in context of the skill giving u buffs if u have northern or uss main gun

[plain saffron]

depends on enemy

[steady beacon]

Sure, then
But on top of being enemy-dependent, the Soyuz gun and Kearsarge's low RLD... don't mix well sometimes

[plain saffron]

but mk6 and 457mm both already USS anyway

[stable badger]

the karaoke lounge is in the minigames in Arcade?

[eternal basalt]

No, Arcade is old boring stuff

[steady beacon]

If you mean the Arcade in the Academy, no
You can access the Karaoke Lounge (among other ways) by the blue manjuu in the port screen, minigame on the left side

[tame orchid]

Is there any point to doing arcade other than gear skins

[unkempt mortar]

i dont think so

[jaunty vault]

ship skins

doing arcade for the sake of doing arcade

[unkempt mortar]

do arcade if bored

[tame orchid]

So dont

[jaunty vault]

[tame orchid]

Got it, thanks

[small fern]

Are anh of the new ships like , good?

[jaunty vault]

define good

[graceful meteor]

they're all good, trust

[steady beacon]

Depends on your resource situation, the kinds of roles you want your ships to perform, what other ships you have available, lots of things

[plain saffron]

that's a lot of word for "not UR = bad"

[steady beacon]

Don't go putting words in my mouth Nagami

[graceful meteor]

still cant deny no UR = bad

[stoic tendon]

Is there no method to skip this event's minigame?

[graceful meteor]

I dont think so

[stoic tendon]

and, if not: is the thing we get from it worth it?

[graceful meteor]

cant remember, it's in datamine I think

[stoic tendon]

Going to assume it's a BGM item

[steady beacon]

It's a microphone clone, changes BGM and grants AA and ACC
It's skippable in the sense that you can just get another mic from core data if you miss this one and want those precise stats for any reason

[steady beacon]

Well, as always, depends on what you're looking for...

[cobalt rapids]

looking for no UR = good

[sinful escarp]

i just get to B rating, the miss everything, i still get the note thingy

[slow fox]

Okay. I decided to calc Rudder vs 550 for every DD in the game. Here are the DD's who are better with Rudder.

Rudder+13 used for comparison.

AKA you're right

[graceful meteor]

as long as you get at least 1 note I think, you still get reward
thing is hard is really fun

[cobalt rapids]

rudder dd new meta

[slow fox]

Mullany now relevant again

Rudder Laffii

(You decrease her max HP by using a Rudder instead of a 550, meaning that the increase in DmgRed due to her Dmg threshold skill will, in effect, produce more eHP than if she used 550)

[jaunty vault]

i do not understand

[slow fox]

Rudder DD new Meta is what this means

[jaunty vault]

UR rudder when

[cobalt rapids]

never

[slow fox]

Bottom of the list. These are the most dodgey DD's, where Rudder sucks on them.

[jaunty vault]

would the numbers change if +10 rudder used

[slow fox]

The difference isn't as stark as I'd imagine, actually. If you had told me that 550 instead of Rudder doubled the eHP of some DD, I would believe you. Evidently, that is not true.

[slow fox]

You can't just have me change a calc like that.

Because I can.

[jaunty vault]

edited like a bot

[slow fox]

Ah the highlight went wrong

last question+13 rudder vs +13 550 HP(640 HP)

[whole jolt]

I just returned to the game and forgot everything... Dont really know what to do lol

[slow fox]

Who in their right mind +13 550 though

[steady beacon]

[jaunty vault]

[slow fox]

Why is this chat full of 550 +13'ers.

[jaunty vault]

/guide in bot spam is what you should do

[steady beacon]

OK, so the logic is not flipped in that forbidden game mode, that's what I care for...

[cobalt rapids]

ure right those could be plates going to offensive aux for edps

[slow fox]

I'd rather +13 the 550 than this

[steady beacon]

Ngl, I can't answer for everyone else in here who don't dabble in that place, but when 90 extra HP is subject to a 2.4x multiplier, we who dabble in that place certainly do care for it...
Also 3% Siren Killer

[slow fox]

smh, killing things

[slow fox]

You guys gotta +13 your Rudders

[steady beacon]

In my defence, I have more +13 Rudders than 640 HP auxes for now
Although not as many as 64 +13 Rudders

[slow fox]

640 HP aux

[loud scarab]

in this event for the minigame does the song have to end to get the daily item for the reward?

[steady beacon]

I think I saw above that you just need to get a B-rank and then you can quit to still receive the note?
Here: #gameplay-help message

[loud scarab]

just b rank isnt enough

[steady beacon]

[opal stream]

i have 3 +13 rudder and i only use 1 of them
technically 0 cuz its on helena

[jaunty vault]

B rank is enough but you need to let the song end

[steady beacon]

Oh you do need to let the song end , gdi
My bad

[loud scarab]

well i confirmed it has to end

[steady beacon]

Could I trouble you to calculate for me the following scenario:
Harbin, +13 Rudder vs 640 HP aux, in first case with another 640 HP in second auxiliary slot and second case with nothing in second auxiliary slot, both subject to the condition that HP is subject to a 2.4x multiplier

[opal stream]

why people minmaxing 1s of survive time now

[jaunty vault]

you got anything better for us to do

[slow fox]

Is the 2.4 multiplier coming from the uhh "e" part of the eHP?

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Damage_Calculations#Hit_Rate

This part?

[opal stream]

minmax dmg
which is better
fp trp or rld

[steady beacon]

Nope, the 2.4 is the PvP modifier, multiplier on her total HP, not on the e part

[slow fox]

HOOOOOOOOOOOLY SHITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT YOU'RE MAKING ME DO PvP eHP

What's the hit/lck we're expecting?

150/50 ?

[frank pulsar]

tally it and average it

sounds like a good guesstimate to me though

[opal stream]

make a sheet that crosscheck every ship to another

[slow fox]

n^2 for n = 500

[slow fox]

[steady beacon]

Yeah, 150/50 is fine
I didn't expect you to modify that assumption just for PvP 👀

[frank pulsar]

pilica, take responsibility for this

[opal stream]

me when i found out some random blue to be laf2 best counter

[slow fox]

That's a must. eHP is a very subtle battle between the LCK/EVA/HIT stats of the combatants, and those base assumptions must be clarified before calculations proceed.

[slow fox]

So:

Harbin with Rudder640,
Harbin with 640 640,
Harbin with Rudder
Harbin with 640 ?

[steady beacon]

Yep, that's it

[sharp token]

what should i put on kawakaze aux gear?

[steady beacon]

I really should go and check expected accuracy stats, now that you bring it up...
Since PvP equipment is generally rigid enough that I can probably get a single value for every single ship, or maybe two if we consider who carries the AFCT vs the HPFCR...

[slow fox]

Toolkit + 550HP Aux such as Seal.

[frank pulsar]

double toolkit is fine

[cobalt rapids]

oxytorp toolkit

[steady beacon]

Double oxytorp if real

[sharp token]

i have rainbow oxy torp should i put those and toolkit?

[frank pulsar]

no, oxytorp is meme pick

dead ship have no damage afterall

[steady beacon]

Hence why crossed out
Don't oxytorp in general/if you don't know why you're doing it

[frank pulsar]

just run no aux

[vale spindle]

na cause ram damage is painpeko

[vale spindle]

i list it as an option on my guide

[slow fox]

[vale spindle]

also did you count for 30% aux boost on relevant ships

[slow fox]

yessir

[vale spindle]

very poggers

anyways it is 3 am so i will go sleep gn

[slow fox]

omg also 3 for me

[round hare]

For shinano first slot for mob, should i use F6F hellcat or corsair (both purple)

[jaunty vault]

corsair

[vale spindle]

corsair

[round hare]

Alight

[steady beacon]

Purple Corsair > Purple Hellcat... unless I'm forgetting something

[jaunty vault]

if same rarity corsair better than hellcat

[slow fox]

Assumptions: 30 second battle

[south sequoia]

Would you guys recommend lil nano for a beginner?

[cobalt rapids]

mayhaps

[steady beacon]

Bless...
So that old remark about Rudder/640 being better than 640/640 is indeed true
But if only one is used, then 640 wins out by a tiny margin...

[slow fox]

never talk to me about PvP again

[steady beacon]

You have my sincerest apologies

[tame orchid]

Rip

[slow fox]

And send me your Laffii bullet distribution

[opal stream]

30s is quite long for a pvp

[slow fox]

I will shut your mouth and stitch a +13 Gamertable on it

[steady beacon]

Was the 30s assumption just for like
Counting the number of times Harbin gets her smokescreens
And the one proc interval of the Rudder?

[slow fox]

Yes and yes.

Both happen uhh once lmao

[round hare]

For hood would white shell or yelow shell better (aux)

[still gate]

are there any good tanks in early-mid game? i was told portland is good but she dies too quickly. may be with retrofit she doesnt?

[frank pulsar]

yellow is marginally better but just get white shell anyway so you can swap it around

[still gate]

she even dies from enemies whose level is 2 times lower than her

[frank pulsar]

portland needs retrofit and limit breaks to be good

[turbid dawn]

What is the best way to equip NP gear on Kron? I forgot to read her skills and noticed she had a skill for equipping one on her. But there seems to be basically 0 NP gear apart from a rare AA gun and a random CB gun that I've never touched

[rapid grail]

retrofit makes her better
since it is currently 3rd muse event i think eugen muse would be a good pick for you. have to consider bulin costs w/ that though

[opal stream]

the cb gun

[steady beacon]

Not four for smokescreens? Two for opening torp, two for second loaded torp?

[round hare]

I mean i have 3 sets of white and black, would it be a funny idea to get yellow

[turbid dawn]

Is it worht swapping out the UR CB gun for the NP CB gun to get that skill active?

[still gate]

to get eugen muse i need to push event campaign. but i cant because i dont have decent tank 😦

[round hare]

Also which shell should i 10+ first

[frank pulsar]

just grab it then if you want to

[opal stream]

yes

[slow fox]

ah let me

[rapid grail]

her own gun + choice

[frank pulsar]

+10 all the gear you use, purple plates are abundant

[steady beacon]

If you don't have any other way to fulfill the NP requirement, yes

[round hare]

I mean above 10 not to 10

[frank pulsar]

/plus13

[odd root]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/images/equip_misc/+13_Priority.jpeg

[round hare]

Aight thanks

[steady beacon]

I'd raise white shell first, over black shell
But ye, check the chart for other stuff you might want to +13 first

[steady beacon]

Ohh, if you account for screens, the math changes considerably 👀

[crisp estuary]

[frank pulsar]

just retrofit portland and limit break her if you havent and she should tank fine, also give her survivability auxiliary like camo paint, hydraulic steering and toolkit
im not sure why you think a ship would perform when you dont invest in them

[steady beacon]

How long do you assume Harbin sits in the smokescreen each time?

[slow fox]

1 second per smokescreen.
So 4 seconds for the entire engagement.

[opal stream]

technically you cant do ehp for pvp cuz backline fires at around 16s
so your smokescreen is actually useless since you die before you fire 2nd wave

[slow fox]

Man, I love pvp

[steady beacon]

Eh, don't worry about it
The assumptions you made were fine, in view of the (much older) scene I had in my mind when asking

I'm not thinking of the current meta, where everything is done and dusted by the 20th second

[steady beacon]

Otsukaresama~
It is greatly appreciated

[still gate]

which ships worth retrofit the most? i already started unicorn and starter ship

[slow fox]

[opal stream]

portland

[south sequoia]

Unicorn > Portland > Starter > Nelson > Indep > Sara > The rest

[round hare]

Do u guys think vanguard rerun first or new may (the regular one) ur first

[frank pulsar]

unicorn > portland > starter
if youre using nelson she has higher prio than starter

[steady beacon]

In all likelihood the latter
Vanguard event, based on the original chronology at least, is not supposed to be next in line after all (SMS event is ahead)

[round hare]

I see

[opal stream]

reruns are like what
2 years 2 months apart from initial run now?

[round hare]

I mean its not fixed, but vanguard has been roughly 2 years

Well 1year 11 months but u get what i mean

[plain saffron]

it's getting longer

[round hare]

Yeah, but lil cheshire has re-ran and they’re released at same time

Thats why im questioning

[plain saffron]

minievent like chesh and major event can be separated

[round hare]

True

[plain saffron]

those rerun whenever dev feel like it

[steady beacon]

More likely whenever dev remembers they exist

[still gate]

what about limit breaks? same as retrofit? my uni is mlb should i limit break portland?

[round hare]

Is NJ any good in camp, or mainly pvp

[plain saffron]

she's good everywhere

[round hare]

I see

[round hare]

Whats the pros and cons, they didnt really mention it in Ectl

Well not the cons

[steady beacon]

Main con is probably her DD-locked secondary gun

[south sequoia]

If she had cons it would've been mentioned in her ectl notes

But NJ has no real issue nor cons outside probably her barrage being too ST focused so not as great on mobs

Other than that, the only downside of using NJ is that she's just worse than more recently released UR bbs

[round hare]

I see, so shes mainly boss? But wasnt there other good ships to sub her out?

[steady beacon]

Also maybe the beyond ridiculous fact that the HE piece does not have priority targeting, but maybe that's getting ahead of myself in terms of complaints...

[round hare]

Yeah exactly what i mean

[south sequoia]

They just do what NJ does but better, that's about it

Oh they also have utility

[round hare]

So for full pitty should i just go for shinano copies

[south sequoia]

Whether or not you should go for shinano or nj depends on your dock

[lean sable]

just pulled NJ..
Should I wait for May UR or just MLB her? got 7 bullins atm

[round hare]

Considering i have max soyuz

[south sequoia]

Plus, if you already got shinano I don't see why you shouldn't go pick up NJ as well

[plain saffron]

yeah they're better than NJ so if you have them use them instead, but that doesn't make NJ worse, and you don't have the other ship(probably)

[round hare]

Well my shinano isnt mlb, im legit missing 1 copy

[plain saffron]

take shinano then

assuming you really just have 3 UR bulins rn. or 1

since NJ will be kinda useless without mlb anyway. better to make a ship usable instead of getting another non usable ship

[round hare]

Alright :)

[vagrant otter]

what should I do with extra copies of MLB?

[south sequoia]

Either trophy or retire

Dupes if the ship is already MLB aren't really useful or worth it

[round hare]

What does trophy mean

[south sequoia]

Just for display on your dock

Do whatever you want with them

[round hare]

Oh💀

[icy mountain]

wth

[still gate]

if i happen to have skin and not the ship can i still use it as secretary?

[whole crypt]

no

[round hare]

Why do u even need that many😭

[wispy totem]

how does RLD stat work ? is there a formula somewhere or ?

[frank pulsar]

wait imho

[harsh cargo]

Link to the RP shop priorities?

[frank pulsar]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Damage_Calculations
under 15. Weapon Reload @wispy totem

[atomic abyss]

honestly that is waaaaay more DDs than i expected
but then again, unless you're an old player, you're prob not gonna have the spare rudders to throw on DDs...

[void turret]

new player here, started playing a week ago, how important is correct investment early on?

[atomic abyss]

game is forgiving enough for wrong investments to not be an issue

it might be more painful in short term tho, if you make unwise decisions

[undone plover]

the game is easy enough and generous enough with most things but it is also easy not to mess up things if u just ask here or checkout Sam's guide https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips

[steady beacon]

Def can be painful in the short run, no matter at what point of your experience you make an incorrect investment (see me running out of gold plates )... but you can generally recoup any losses over time...

[void turret]

ty!

[bright tusk]

Is shinano chan rly good at battle because she has 9 planes?

[steady beacon]

9 planes is certainly neat, although "really good" is probably a little bit too much praise
She's fine enough, but there will be ships with fewer planes that will be better/more useful than her, to say nothing of comparison to a UR which also has 9 planes

[vale apex]

whats this

i only have 3.8k its not even maxed

[half plover]

If I got eugen muse from the sp5 stage I should skip the shop copy, right?

[inland shoal]

You alredy got 5k this month

[vale apex]

oh

[novel solstice]

It's a limit on how many you can get each month, not how many you can have. If you spent some, you can be below 5k total, but still have hit the limit on amount gained this month.,

[vernal osprey]

Help

[novel solstice]

Active players should hit the limit every month, it's designed to be fairly easy to hit.

[vernal osprey]

Holy crap

[inland shoal]

The answer to your question is like 3 seconds before your question

[vernal osprey]

Now there's a limit???

[inland shoal]

There has always been a limit, used to be 4k now it's 5k

[vernal osprey]

I know...when was the limit here

[vernal osprey]

Really???

...so I spent around 12k of the SC on Special Bullin for nothing? I thought it was the depot space 💀

Oh well, time to put it all on my still three star Soyuz...

[inland shoal]

I'm afraid so

[steady beacon]

Well, MLB'ing Soyuz is not "nothing" I would say...

[vernal osprey]

Is it per month?

[atomic abyss]

yes 5k limit is per mth

[whole crypt]

+extra if you can buy from medal

no one else really has any use with N/A and Apoc besides Patricia right?

[atomic abyss]

wat

[steady beacon]

Provided you have the standard gold BB auxes, no
Since you can only trigger the extra effects precisely if Patricia carries them
And the stat gains are worse otherwise

[whole crypt]

yeh that's fair, I'm just looking for places to equip all the trash aux

depot issues

[steady beacon]

Atelier collab auxes... uh, if I remember what you said before correctly, you were probably not here for that
Ironically, those two are the best debuff and damage items in the base game, but meh at best in AL

[pale tulip]

does upgrading skills increase research XP? [I forgot the term]

[plain saffron]

no

it says specifically combat experience

[pale tulip]

Ok, thank you

[crystal flame]

Is there a list or graph that shows all the game’s submarines’ hunting range? Trying to learn the positions of the submarines to better learn who to set as the flagship for their fleet.

[eager mulch]

coverage doesnt matter, you can move subs

[plain saffron]

/wiki submarine name

[odd root]

No wiki pages found.

[plain saffron]

it's just there for gimmick mostly

[steady beacon]

Tbf it's kinda useful for submarine levelling when you don't want to have to move them around every single time...
Like some have pattern that allows it to cover all boss spawn spots in an event... it's useful to know that...

[crystal flame]

Not if I want to do x3 auto-repeated auto-search without interruption

[steady beacon]

But ye, Idt there's a single graph/chart for every sub in the game, gotta check their patterns individually...

[plain saffron]

yeah but what happened after you max lvled them you not gonna use them even if they're perfect for that

[steady beacon]

Kore wa kore, sore wa sore

[plain saffron]

i don't speak nihongo

[inner delta]

[atomic abyss]

"That is one thing, this is another" would be the english approximation

[opal stream]

just take the L
turn on the auto-call and miss half the fights

[elfin hollow]

is formi muse the only preload with 2 torp slots?

[steady beacon]

For the original rendering Ender, it's the other way around
Although... the meaning remains unchanged

[plain saffron]

or farm map that's the best to lvl subs

i forgot which stage but most subs will cover it

[atomic abyss]

I think it's 12-1 or 11-1

[opal stream]

smaller maps you mean

[atomic abyss]

Probably 12-1
11-1 they might die to suicide boats

[steady beacon]

Yes, that's true too
But sometimes taking advantage of some patterns in events is neat

[atomic abyss]

As in 2 TB slots?

[elfin hollow]

yeah

[plain saffron]

or just exp pack then farm raid event

[elfin hollow]

her loadout is 2-6, right?

[crystal flame]

It’s just so if there is a boss node that the submarine girls are already on at the start of the map, I want to make sure their hunting range is already on the spot so they are able to enter battle. For example:

•Having a lvl 107 Albacore as flagship may not reach the boss node even though her hunting range is off by 1 tile while a lvl 125 Royal Fortune reaches the boss node upon starting the map because her hunting range to is wide enough to reach the boss nodes and any mini-bosses on the current event SP5 map of the μ-event.

[plain saffron]

100% coverage guaranteed

[atomic abyss]

Just like og Formi, yeah 2-0-6

[inland shoal]

Percy has 2 TB slots preloaded

[atomic abyss]

Technically the truth

[elfin hollow]

well, guess i'll level her with eugen muse and noshiro muse on 12-4, i guess she'll do quick work with 2 wyverns and a pancake

[steady beacon]

Ye, sounds like what happened with me during Light-Chasing Sea of Stars
Swapped my subs around... I want to say it was Archer who gave my best coverage among the USS subs I was levelling at that time...
But ye, all you can do is note the spawn point(s) and check the patterns (as found on the wiki) for the most optimal one for any given map

[elfin hollow]

what's the best equip for formi muse, i use alizarin towel and cata

[opal stream]

normal cv

[elfin hollow]

is the preload buff worth using or do i just use a 2nd cata

[steady beacon]

Double catapult
She's still a CV at the end of the day

The preload is triggered by muse presence though, not her auxes?

[elfin hollow]

i have 2 muses in the team

[crystal flame]

What tab is the page with submarine hunting ranges under?

[steady beacon]

She counts herself
And she is a muse 👀

[elfin hollow]

so i gave her the towel for the quick airstrike buff

i mean 2 without formi, i use her with eugen and noshiro

[steady beacon]

The Alizarin Towel, btw, does not confer muse status

[crystal flame]

Oh…

[elfin hollow]

i wonder what deals more damage, towel or cata, i use the towel on formi

[steady beacon]

Oh right you can check in-game too lmao
My bad, I completely forgot

[crystal flame]

I never realized that was even there… AND I’VE BEEN PLAYING THIS GAME FOR HOW LONG—!!!?

[crystal flame]

Thank you!

[steady beacon]

... Uhhhh... the buff is what... 3% right...
So you're asking, if you are only getting one airstrike in, if the 3% AVI buff is better than a steam catapult

[eager mulch]

towel gives nowhere near enough avi to use over steam cata

[elfin hollow]

yeah, that

ok, so 2 catas it is, thanks

[opal stream]

15s

[steady beacon]

Short answer, uh
Let's say her AVI is... 800
1% is 8, 3% is 24, and steam catapult is 100 AVI

[eager mulch]

3%

[elfin hollow]

also who do i use as tank, eugen muse or noshiro muse

i use perseus for heal anyway but still

[steady beacon]

If you're doing 12-4 on safe, it probably doesn't matter much
Idt you die

[vale pendant]

Who do I replace with Soyuz?
I was thinking of replacing Owari, and then replacing Nelson with Owari

[eager mulch]

in what context

[vale pendant]

My discord is going a bit wonky gimme a sec

[elfin hollow]

soyuz might be better for the bossing fleet so you can abuse the crossfleet barrage better

[steady beacon]

Guessing left is boss, right is mob
I mean, in principle those are fine changes

[vale pendant]

Ok fixed it, Owari fleet is Boss fleet, Nelson is Mob, this is just general performance

[eager mulch]

general doesnt exist

[steady beacon]

Since the basic question is: is Soyuz better than Nelson... I mean, probably...

[vale pendant]

Then I’m trying to push through W11/12.

[eager mulch]

that change will be fine then

[steady beacon]

Yep, that'll be fine

[vale pendant]

Cool, now I just need to get Soyuz up to lvl 70 for MLB then

[blissful hamlet]

which is the best fleet vs light armor

ignore the empty aug

[steady beacon]

Is this... Arbiter or CM or something else entirely

[blissful hamlet]

mainly opsi boss vs light

[steady beacon]

I'd take choice 1, from those three options (I think you overcap the EVA rate debuff but anyway...)
Also give your Sirius a DD gun 👀

[blissful hamlet]

there's eva rate cap?

[steady beacon]

Well, you get to a hit rate 1/enemy evasion rate 0 so everything hits
And you can't go higher than that

[blissful hamlet]

[steady beacon]

Oh, but to be clear, there IS also an EVA rate cap of 0.9 above/equivalent hit rate cap of 0.1 below

[unkempt mortar]

can you use coins to upgrade dev on dr ships

[steady beacon]

You can for FDG, Azuma, and Drake (at the present moment)

[craggy panther]

Sorry, i didnt check before posting

[eager mulch]

outdated command, bad mod

[plain saffron]

btw the cap is 5k now

[south sequoia]

ask yuki to update it not me

or ender

[eager mulch]

[craggy panther]

Now i feel dumb

[elfin hollow]

at what point should you buy more dock slots

i got 630/700 full, should i get more?

[worldly pewter]

u can not claim it and wait for the monthly reset i think
but it is whatever

[south sequoia]

Whenever you feel like you need more, you can do a lot with 70 space

It's up to how comfortable you feel with what you have, you don't really need to expand it but it's up to you if you want more.

[craggy panther]

It resets the first every month?

[plain saffron]

there

[eager mulch]

it resets every month but not claiming it until next month just makes it so that you cap out sooner so it doesnt matter

[plain saffron]

@inner delta cleo said to tell you

[worldly pewter]

matters if u are planning to slacc for that month right

[edgy iron]

This shi good?

[plain saffron]

imo nope

[unkempt mortar]

where do you even find this

[eager mulch]

by not playing for an extended period of time

[plain saffron]

comeback "event"

is it just me or wiki is slow

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Akashi's_Homecoming_Campaign

[wispy pendant]

If you need books and gold coins are easy for you, seems fine to buy.

[frank pulsar]

wiki is slow

[inland shoal]

Wki still fast as ever but I'm in eu si

[steady beacon]

No issues on my end either

[plain saffron]

smh region advantage

try searching for anything

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/w/index.php?title=Special:Search&search=akashi's+home

[frank pulsar]

takes a bit to load in stuff on my end

[steady beacon]

Loads fine and fast
Although I have experienced what I think you're describing in the past, just not at this present moment

[plain saffron]

is there ever a CM with more than 3 skill?

[inland shoal]

You mean in the desc or the code?

[plain saffron]

desc

[inland shoal]

Don't think so no
Also the search still takes <1s

[plain saffron]

i guess i have skill issue 😔

[haughty dust]

how do I get rid of this error message?

[inland shoal]

You tap Confirm duh

[eager mulch]

4

[haughty dust]

I did. I guess a better question should be why am I getting the error?

[eager mulch]

there is no error

[plain saffron]

refer

[south sequoia]

poked at yuki to get it updated

[inland shoal]

"new"

[plain saffron]

wtf so fast

[inland shoal]

Still annoyed they implemented this warning without any setting to not display it after some ppl were confused they weren't getting any cores

[haughty dust]

The other reason, I also say that is because this is how many I have I haven’t even reached 5K according to this at least not that I’m aware of.

[steady beacon]

The 5k cap is the monthly cap, not the cap on the number you can own at any one time

[eager mulch]

you can only earn 5k a month, doesnt mean youre gonna have 5k

[inland shoal]

That is the wrong place to look, you want to look on the sidebar where comms etc are
Unless they moved it

[steady beacon]

Yep "spec", it's still there

[haughty dust]

What are you referring to exactly? Can you send me a picture?

[inland shoal]

If you wait 7h or sth

[haughty dust]

ok ok gotcha. Let me check.

[steady beacon]

I mean, on account of you receiving that message, you have already hit the monthly cap

[eternal moth]

You probably bought a bulin earlier this month

[plain saffron]

turtle stop stealing my job

[eager mulch]

🐢

[south sequoia]

Okaay I think the circles and red arrows are not necessary

[plain saffron]

wait until they asked "what do i see here?"

[steady beacon]

Better to be painstakingly clear, than risk confusion at the alternative

[plain saffron]

huh wtf almost 100k spec core

[whole crypt]

sounds about right

[eternal moth]

AL issues a bugfix to fix issues of the game not updating... game refuses to take the update. Fun times.

[stark quiver]

300 spec core moment

[steady beacon]

More importantly, why did you randomly switch to orange for two strokes in this?

[plain saffron]

misclick

[loud scarab]

are these aux equips good for anything?

[eager mulch]

decent second toolbox alternatives

[inland shoal]

The towels are better 2nd toolboxes

The rpg thing I forgor

[cobalt rapids]

first one is second best hp aux, 2nd and 3rd are 2nd tk sidegrades

[inland shoal]

Ah right it's that rpg event aux, not the 3rd from this one

[plain saffron]

do you remember if CM boss ever used growth?

[inland shoal]

Growth?

[umbral briar]

guys iwanna ask , Do all of you use submarines?How influential is it in the game?I have seen the submarine tier list, but I'm still confused whether using all of those in T0 is enough to make them the best?

[inland shoal]

Oh you mean for stats? No idea sry

[plain saffron]

[inland shoal]

Subs are quite helpful in the later worlds, dunno how big their impact is exactly, but it's noticeable

[loud scarab]

the third aux gear is the ticket from the minigame right? that one doesn't seem useful

[frank pulsar]

helps a lot in w14+

[eager mulch]

how much you need subs depends on how strong your surface fleets are

[frank pulsar]

i never use subs elsewhere though

[eager mulch]

i never use subs

[haughty dust]

this may be an odd question. However, I’m wondering why some characters background color does not match the rarity of the actual character. Volga is one example.

[eager mulch]

art

[umbral briar]

Does the spread of torpedoes depend on the type of torpedo used or the type of submarine used? My torpedoes spread out like parallel

[opal stream]

background

[icy mountain]

r these things hard to get?

[haughty dust]

yeah, that makes sense. I guess. Just noticed it a little bit ago ago and I thought it was kind of odd.

[eager mulch]

she has a big background, you can see a tiny bit in the top right corner

[icy mountain]

the rainbow one??

[opal stream]

only place you can get them

[frank pulsar]

sub torp is different from regular torp
they fire one at a time continuously and without spread

[stark quiver]

just play opsi consistently and u can get all of them

[sharp socket]

what is a secret ticket

[opal stream]

asmr

[eager mulch]

voucher for asmr

[soft raft]

used to unlock what's essentially ASMR

[cobalt rapids]

memories > secrets

[inland shoal]

Get 3 to unlock ingame asmr

[sharp socket]

watdehell alr

[icy mountain]

also what settings for autofarm should be set to get the most mats for gear lab? in opsi?

[opal stream]

free asmr in this economy

[eager mulch]

i wont say no to free helena asmr

[stark quiver]

most people auto c5 or c4, ususally finish opsi within the first few days, then buy everything, and forget about opsi

[umbral briar]

i mean my torpedoes go straight instead of homing in on the target.

[cobalt rapids]

subs have barrages, its prob what ure seeing

[whole crypt]

auto repeat C5 is only after you clear everything else

[cobalt rapids]

or ure using non homing torps

[frank pulsar]

that depends on the type of torp equipped
the rainbow 95 kai for example doesnt home, but the bidders and g7e does

[whole crypt]

you can't buy everything in the first few days

[stark quiver]

well not buy, but clear eveything, then pick off everyhting else

[sharp socket]

oh it also costs gems nevermind then

[cobalt rapids]

u get 1 ticket free / month

[opal stream]

free every 3 minths if you login everyday

[stark quiver]

dont bother with secrets

[umbral briar]

i see now its same like plane torpedo bomber

[frank pulsar]

wot

[soft raft]

no that's a alternate purchasing option if you dont have enough tickets

[cobalt rapids]

plane torpedo bombers dont home

[frank pulsar]

the only thing thats similar between the two is that both are torp

[sharp socket]

oh alright

[eager mulch]

i have 7 secret tickets + 3 i used for helena secret without buying any

[stark quiver]

i have used 6 bc i was bored during a car ride

[sharp socket]

is it like a full asmr thing or just a short clip

[cobalt rapids]

short

[stark quiver]

it lasts for like 4 mins maybe?

[inland shoal]

Depends on what's short

[eager mulch]

helena secret is just over 5 minutes long

[umbral briar]

How can I know whether the torpedo is homing or not?

[cobalt rapids]

also not rly asmr imo but

[eager mulch]

helena one is def asmr

[whole crypt]

waiting for Natori ASMR

[frank pulsar]

acoustics and magnetic torps are homing torps, i cant think of any other types but there might be more

[whole crypt]

@inland shoal what's wrong with Natori

[ivory crown]

if i have a second floor do i just user decor tokens for, well, decor now? like theres no more dorm expansions right?

[whole crypt]

yes

[round hare]

How good is shinano chan considering shes a free Elite with 9 planes im terms of ECTL

[eager mulch]

shes p good

oh i hate ECTL

[round hare]

would she be around T1?

[round hare]

Bro is NOT resident

[steady beacon]

Don't get too worried about the tiers tbh...

[viscid swift]

she may have 9 planes but that's about all she has

[opal stream]

using ECTL as guide for ship power...

[round hare]

Idfk😭

Whats a reliable TL then

[cobalt rapids]

none

[round hare]

I see

[opal stream]

like none?

[round hare]

How can i tell if something is good or not then

[opal stream]

we just go off with what works for specific content
which mostly just spamming UR but there are exceptions

ngl i dont bother too much with ships power after a certain point
like who would care about a t2 t3 ship in ectl

[cobalt rapids]

i mean u can look at tierlist to get a general idea but dont expect everything to be right to the t
this game is mostly content based so you cant have ship tierlists without content tierlist

[whole crypt]

learn the game, tierlists fail to reflect contextual ship and gear use

[round hare]

I joined not long ago, ur bullin source is 🤏🏻

[cobalt rapids]

sirius is t2 afterall

[opal stream]

every ara ships not named kaza = t4

[round hare]

Like i dont have stacked amount of special cores and ive reach the cap everytime

[steady beacon]

Unfortunately nothing can solve that but time

[cobalt rapids]

or money

[opal stream]

tbh
best guides are just looking up fleets that clear the best

[eager mulch]

like on youtube?

[cobalt rapids]

surely on youtube
