[viscid swift]

I personally don't bother trying to morale above 120 all the time

[late flame]

i do but its a me thing lol

[ivory linden]

Seems pretty slow to me that's why I'm asking

[viscid swift]

that's partially why

[ivory linden]

Even on 12-4

[crisp estuary]

Slow what? Morale regen?

[ivory linden]

Exp gain

[silk sphinx]

I try to a bit, but it’s just a healthier habit to spend it all when you have the time

Later on you’ll have cognitive chip shortages so exp efficiency will be um rather unimportant if it’s oil capped at least too

And overall just as a human being it’s better to partition out times for AL and times out of it

Stay healthy kids

[late flame]

or just uninstall everything else and do AL only

[silk sphinx]

By this I mean, if you play a lot and use up your oil you’ll find that you can’t even cognitive awaken all your ships usually

So it’s pointless to increase exp efficiency given that they often can’t level up in the first place

[late flame]

yeah eventually one would either run low on oil / morale (despite fully maxxed +2F dorm) and/or chips

[viscid swift]

I would agree to a point

[silk sphinx]

I have 3k chips saved rn for UR, but yeah running like 4 capped ships rn

With a backlog of some three dozen capped ships

[ivory linden]

I'm not to that point yet. I have like 50k cogs and im just starting leveling up new ships

[silk sphinx]

Well yea early game is quite different

[viscid swift]

trust me, you will get there sooner than you think

[silk sphinx]

And sheesh 50k chips…

[ivory linden]

I'm not early. I stopped at world 13

[silk sphinx]

Admittedly some people don’t ever run out of chips

Just because they don’t farm nearly as much

[ivory linden]

Waiting to get some ships from pr to push 14 and ur bullins so I have nothing else to do besides opsi and events

[versed elk]

lixxy ur not bagging right?

[silk sphinx]

Whereas some others ever buy more oil ultimately the 20% exp boost us pretty grea

[silk sphinx]

Oh I can rush rn if you want

[late flame]

before joining discord i thought buying oil and chips was a thing kek

[versed elk]

nope, just asking i already missed 5 from the maint

[silk sphinx]

Oh nvm it’s 15 to reset hah

[versed elk]

just curious but are you 10/10 now? last set you were 2nd in amagi

[silk sphinx]

I’m at uh 9? I think

[versed elk]

9/10 2299?

[silk sphinx]

i ruined that run tbh, I rushed on saturday thinking it was sunday

oh nvm, 7/10

i did overcap by one i think

[versed elk]

dont worry you are pretty close

theres always next season

[silk sphinx]

thanks... brah

[versed elk]

[silk sphinx]

i always end up overcapping sadly

[sharp socket]

whats the fastest plane i can put on unicorn

is it a good idea to do that so she heals more

[soft raft]

No

It barely makes her faster while serverly gimping her damage enough that it's not worth it

[sharp socket]

my best plane is barracuda

[soft raft]

just give her good gear simple as that

[sharp socket]

this is the best i got

[viscid swift]

that's fine for transitional gear

[sharp socket]

also should i change my hood gun

[rain vine]

purple twin 410

[sharp socket]

its still the best?

[rain vine]

one of the better ones

[soft raft]

These are like the only good BB guns you have

[sharp socket]

this one looked pretty good, whats the reason for not using it

[soft raft]

That is not a BB gun, that's a CB gun

[sharp socket]

its listed under BB main gun

[sharp socket]

…

[soft raft]

That's because CB gun calibers are more closer to BB gun than CA guns

[sharp socket]

augh game confusing

[viscid swift]

you get used to it

[sharp socket]

whats a CB anyway

[rain vine]

large cruiser

[dawn whale]

Extra large cruiser

[sharp socket]

Cruiser Big ok

so CA is Cruiser Average and CL is Cruiser Light

[dawn whale]

Yes

[soft raft]

Their main thing is that they're pretty bulky compared to other vanguards and all of their dedicated main guns fire arcing shots, ignoring shields as a result

[viscid swift]

no

that's just the abbreviations the USN uses, what they actually stand for well know one knows

[sharp socket]

i will assume thats what theyre called because it makes sense to me

[viscid swift]

that's fine, just don't expect everyone else to be the same

[silk helm]

Hi on the ECTL guide it only shows the high level gear. Is there anywhere I can find what gear to put on my ships in the early game?

Here's my fleet for ref

[vale spindle]

if you find lower rarity versions of whats listed on ectl thats good for now

[silk helm]

Okay thanks! That makes sense. The names can get confusing at times

[vale spindle]

just make sure all slots are equipped with SOMETHING, even if its not good, since something > empty slot except with 1 specific aa gun but don't worry about that

[silk helm]

Is it a waste to level up like lower rarity guns?

[vale spindle]

na you can +3 away

[late flame]

i'd say up to +6 max for transitional stuff mayhaps

[vale spindle]

plates are common enough for the most part

so don't worry about "wasting" them

unless they are gold rarity plates but you won't get there for a while anyways

[silk sphinx]

Once you get to midgame or endgame you stop caring about plates

[late flame]

except well the purple general plates

[silk helm]

thank you 🙏🏻

[silk sphinx]

In a similar way you don’t care about the drills for speeding up ship builds - at some point you can use them anytime you want and you’ll find it hard to run out

[silk sphinx]

I still have thousands of that

[viscid swift]

10s of thousands for me, you just don't have that much stuff to enhance after a certain point

[late flame]

must be nice not be a new player

[silk helm]

hahah it is nice, lots to learn and research

[silk sphinx]

Tens of thousands wow…

That’s multiples of what I have anyhow, I’m surprised

[viscid swift]

Well just

[elfin hollow]

What are some good ara ships again?

[viscid swift]

Kazagumo, Bellona, among others

[silk sphinx]

Kazagumo and potter are the well commonly spoken of ones

[elfin hollow]

Where do you get bellona?

[viscid swift]

she's event limited

[silk sphinx]

Ariake is guild shop iirc, there’s also Bellina yea

[soft raft]

you wait until Vanguard (The ship) reruns

[silk sphinx]

Hammann II if you were there for the event too

[elfin hollow]

And kazagumo?

[soft raft]

Perament light pool
Same with Potter

[elfin hollow]

Ok

[silk sphinx]

Is hm. Yeah I think I had to wishing well her

But yeah ariake exists

Squishy but meh they’re kind of all squishy

[eager mulch]

Kearsarge too

[elfin hollow]

Pl i got ariake and ham what are good gear for both of them

[viscid swift]

usual DD gear

[silk sphinx]

Hammann II?

Use her then. She’s eu too so she can use the emergency repair auxiliary gear

Much better performance time

[stone sluice]

Let’s say there is a skill that grants a boost to IJN ships. One IJN ship uses the Cosmic kicks aux, and if that aux classifies it as a “muse” ship, it won’t receive the IJN boost?

[viscid swift]

no, it will

it's IJN and a Muse ship in that case

[silk sphinx]

The opposite also applies by the way. Muse ships still also count as part of their original faction

[viscid swift]

same with any other aux that adds factions

[stone sluice]

[elfin hollow]

Yes

[elfin hollow]

Which is?

[viscid swift]

any good DD Gun you have, quad mags, [insert AA gun here], toolbox and another HP aux

you learn very quickly that there isn't much variation in terms of vanguard equips lel

[silk sphinx]

Double hp auxes, dd gun, some aa gun (134mm or a working good aa gun if the enemy has planes)

[elfin hollow]

Anyone got a link to HMS ships for good tech points?>

[silk sphinx]

For hammanm II or potter they also want the manjuu aux

[viscid swift]

no such guide exists but I would reccomend seeing the wiki's page on fleet tech and doing some quick cost vs return analysis

[silk sphinx]

Aka emergency repair aux gear, strong improvement to performance time

[viscid swift]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Fleet_Technology#Royal_Navy-2

[elfin hollow]

Alright

[soft raft]

Can't check wiki right now, any good tech here?
Realized I gotta raise some of these for the imminent Italian CA DR in PR7

[silk sphinx]

Go to the page of fleet technology, and do ships that offer backline hit, rld, or 2x FP or AVI for main fleet ships

[viscid swift]

pretty much everything is FP tech, Pola and Trento are CA hit, Tartu does not give useful tech

[silk sphinx]

For vanguard tech then just pick anything with DD/CL/CA fp

Highest impact is on dds since they have lower fp normally, but you’ll maybe use cls and cas more than dds like I do

[viscid swift]

Dads lol

[eager mulch]

dads?

[silk sphinx]

The two Italian CLs in particular offer 2FP

[elfin hollow]

Im a visual learner can u show?

[viscid swift]

uhh

this is kinda your bog standard mid game DD build

[silk sphinx]

Trieste and galissonière are cheap FP for CL or CA

[hushed dawn]

What fleet tech stat is worth prioritizing first for DDs and CLs?

[soft raft]

FP

[viscid swift]

FP and Crusier EVA

[hushed dawn]

Alrighty. Thanks.

[vale apex]

what mob and boss fleet for 12-2

[viscid swift]

well uh what did you use to clear 12-1

[vale apex]

idr

just suggest boss fleet

[viscid swift]

Mob: Hood, Unicorn, Theseus, Portland, Kazagumo, Javelin
Boss: Nelson, Soyuz, Enterprise, Carl, Helena, Cleveland

[vale apex]

theseus? not indep?

[viscid swift]

Theseus has 8 levels on Independence

and Theseus is no slouch herself

[eternal moth]

Next maintenance is in just under 52 hours right?

[viscid swift]

yes

[vale apex]

if i get more levels on indep does she get better?

[viscid swift]

well of course

[violet oracle]

what's the best long range anti-air gun? I wanna make a fleet with North Carolina and her new augment

[steady beacon]

Should be the Twin 134

[violet oracle]

alright thank you

[topaz smelt]

its more likely ijn 127 is better

[waxen pollen]

is there a setting to remove this confirmation?

[steady beacon]

Oh, interesting
First I've heard another option on this

[viscid swift]

no

[waxen pollen]

ok thanks

[elfin hollow]

How u get theseus

[steady beacon]

She's in special pool

[viscid swift]

she's in the special pool

[versed elk]

what teams do yall use for the 14-1 farmers

[stark quiver]

This event will have double ur?

[versed elk]

im in tn hell so i think i can only level 2 vangs at once

[elfin hollow]

Wait isn’t persus better then thesus?

[steady beacon]

Upcoming event will have double UR
One (Alsace) in the build pool
The other (Mogador) obtained by some (as yet unknown) shop method, but should be similar to Laffey

[topaz smelt]

i used to do uni fdg + some tank + 3

[viscid swift]

Bismarck Zwei, Unicorn, and Aquila or Volga depending on my mood

[stark quiver]

Ah I was about to ask if it was similar to laff, but nice, right in finals week as well

[viscid swift]

different roles

[steady beacon]

They simply have vastly different roles
Perseus is a healer
Theseus is fundamentally a damage-dealer

[versed elk]

i assume u use like lvl 105-110 vangs? usually i keep them at 100 but i might habe to awaken them for these

[topaz smelt]

ik you can carry lv1 backline in 14-1

[viscid swift]

I try to get away with lvl 100s but sometimes that's not practical

[whole crypt]

if you're leveling in 14-1 you'll want 105+

[topaz smelt]

vg closer to 110ish

[versed elk]

yea i am leveling some tn people

kk i’ll try and get back

[whole crypt]

if shitty ships then yeh 110+

[topaz smelt]

the tankier ones 105

[stark quiver]

Will there probably be some special challenges/missions that I need certain ships to complete

[topaz smelt]

prob only meta fights

15 is kinda strict on viable units

[viscid swift]

there will probably be missions requiring you to use the event ships in B3/S3 for some vouchers to get Mogador

[steady beacon]

Ngl I can't even remember what you had to do for Laffey...
You probably should get some points for the minigame again...
Some missions involving event stages
And then you can probably redeem for points by using the "main" event points

[stark quiver]

Back in Guam event, was there option for 2 laffey?

[steady beacon]

Ye there were like... four or five sources

[viscid swift]

you had options, less so if you wanted both copies

[steady beacon]

And the patch notes were all wrong

[topaz smelt]

they give you enough for 1 copy and you had to farm for the 2nd iirc

[whole crypt]

if you wanted both copies there was very little headroom

[steady beacon]

Ye pre much

[viscid swift]

pretty much

[whole crypt]

playing regularly with all the daily missions should be able to get the ship by last day without additional farming/buying from shop

[topaz smelt]

iirc i had to hit 60k to get the 2nd copy and all the decent stuff in shop

[viscid swift]

yeah, the mini game gave over half the total needed for the first copy alone

[opaque yacht]

will stuff ever be removed from mail? i feel like i lost something

[stark quiver]

To get all the ships, in shop, n points , I would need to play about 2 hours a day? Cuz I got finals and I’m not trying to fail automotive class

[steady beacon]

If memory serves the shop exchange rate for the redemption points was some kinda ridiculous figure...

[whole crypt]

no second copy just costs more points

[viscid swift]

remember this is event lasts for over 3 weeks

[whole crypt]

for first copy alone if you wanted to farm you could get it fairly easily early on

[steady beacon]

Second copy costs more points
But the (main) points shop exchange rate for the vouchers was something stupid
I wanna say 150 points/voucher
But I can't remember precisely

[viscid swift]

it was

[steady beacon]

Then the 2nd Laffey copy cost 300 vouchers

[opaque yacht]

?

[viscid swift]

you needed 24k event points at minimum for the 2nd copy

[viscid swift]

no

[whole crypt]

for regular players just play normally and wait for minigame points or something

[viscid swift]

Moagdor might be cheaper if the missions stay the same because 23 day event vs 14 day event

[whole crypt]

I think I bought both copies but I definitely didn't buy out vouchers

[vale spindle]

you got vouchers from a lot of sources

[whole crypt]

yes you did

[viscid swift]

yeah no the total number of vouchers from other sources was 340 I think

[whole crypt]

you still had buy quite a lot of vouchers for second copy even if you got everything else

[vale spindle]

this event is longer than 14 days (i think) so thats even more vouchers

[elfin hollow]

Wait is that still available?

[viscid swift]

yeah 23 days

[vale spindle]

however there might not be a minigame

[steady beacon]

Laffey is not still available

[viscid swift]

so Mogador dupe minimum goes down to like 13.5k potentially

[vale spindle]

laffey ii is not available currently, that is just from an old pin when the event was active

[whole crypt]

you can be sure there is a minigame, it's CN anniv

it's just whether they'll put the UR exchange items into it

[steady beacon]

Mean there probably is a minigame ye, we just... don't know if it'll reward the vouchers or not

[viscid swift]

yep, a number of unknows to be seen to still, like URs in Wishing Wells

[whole crypt]

bunbun vouchers = bouchers
mogs vouchers = mouchers?

[vale spindle]

just wait for the patch notes

[steady beacon]

What a coincidence

[sullen creek]

Mogmog vouchers

[whole crypt]

for a minute I thought you meant it and wasn't a typo

[steady beacon]

In hindsight, maybe I should have just gone with it and pretended I meant it
But "b" and "v" are right next to each other, so... I didn't expect that was gonna fly

[whole crypt]

just go ahead and call them mouchers for mogs

[broken pivot]

🇧ouchers

[haughty cave]

Should I get this im about to get the last copy of the UR blue print

[viscid swift]

sure

[whole crypt]

you'll want 1-2 copies of that gun if you have the spare designs

I'd prioritize planes with that electronics count though

[haughty cave]

Sure I got 40 T3 custom gear

[whole crypt]

you have to make a gun before 457 too

you got enough gold gun designs?

[haughty cave]

Oh you right i only got enough to make the gold gun

but ive got 86 SR gear blueprint

[whole crypt]

you got these? then you're good

[haughty cave]

Yea those one i got 86

[elfin hollow]

How do i get it?

[viscid swift]

what

[unborn thunder]

Stuck at loading screen with this, anyone know what i should do

[plain saffron]

update in play store

[eternal moth]

[vast sparrow]

Is there an option to change storage to SD Card in AL? I heard there would be 3D assets in dorms and Holiday Island

[orchid zealot]

What are they best ships for a wolf pack

[eternal moth]

37/47/96 I think

Unless it's 47/81/96, I don't remember

[rain vine]

i think 37 and 47 are interchanged
81 and 96 are the ones you want

[solid quail]

Im struggling in hard mode 13-3. What setup/ships should I use. I have 5049 AA and my boss fleet gets crushed halfway

my fleet setup

[rain vine]

gear on boss fleet?

also is your backline dying or is your vanguard dying?

[orchid zealot]

Thanks

[solid quail]

both, depends on luck but mainly the backline due to plane bombardments

[late flame]

lack of intercept is concerning

[rain vine]

well, that would explain everything
your fighters do not intercept

hvars have no passive interception capabilities

[solid quail]

I see. Should I be using flapjack/tigers for intercepts instead?

[rain vine]

flapjacks

[solid quail]

NJ gears are fine correct?

does tigers do not have intercepts despite having the same stats as flapjack?

[rain vine]

i would swap to champy gun for medium armor
tigercats have intercept as well, but flapjacks are better

[sweet delta]

hvars also arent good against medium

well they're good, but considering that bf109g are better and more accessible

[late flame]

hvar mainly anti-light aye

[solid quail]

better in what way?

[rain vine]

better medium armor modifiers

[solid quail]

oh that eh.

[solid quail]

what is the deciding factor between both planes? Is it the plane's HP?

[rain vine]

flapjacks shoot more often and stay on the screen slightly longer

[velvet pumice]

whats is recommended vanguard for this meta?

[solid quail]

so its more of a performance based and not plane stat-based?

[sweet delta]

stat is performance

[late flame]

tigercats are good for timing

[solid quail]

also HVAR seems to also have cannons but why can't they intercept?

[sweet delta]

that's just how they're coded

rocket fighters are the exception from fighters like how Wyvern and breguet are exceptions from torpedo bombers

[rain vine]

when the enemy sends planes, hvars dont pop up to intercept them passively
they will intercept when your carrier sends an airstrike

[solid quail]

Gosh now that pops more questions. What determines the planes to intercept passively?

[rain vine]

game code

[solid quail]

I occassionally see flapjacks flying on the map even when I don't launch airstrike

[rain vine]

because theyre probably intercepting an enemy airstrike

[tame jungle]

Because flapjacks can intercept

[sweet delta]

Fighters can intercept, while other planes cannot, with the following exceptions:

The Messerschmitt Bf 109G (Carrier-based Prototype), Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A-6/R6 (Carrier-based Prototype) and Grumman F6F Hellcat (HVAR-Mounted) cannot intercept.
The Kawanishi N1K1 Kyoufuu, Nakajima A6M2-N, Westland Wyvern and Bréguet Br.810 can intercept.

damn 675k for haku nano nagato comp

[rain vine]

well, thats 2shot at least

you need to have rodney or rodney meta in the fleet to avoid that bit
not worth it

[little tree]

Yikes I hardly have anything above tier 1

[night pumice]

you can't lose tech points right? so if I mlb a few common units and then retire I won't lost anything

[rain vine]

nope, cant lose em

[atomic abyss]

Best to view tech points as a milestone system

[sharp vine]

So uhhhhh
I failed to kill the opsi boss with 3 fleets and I don't think my 4th fleet is gonna do it
What happens when all 4 fail

[plain saffron]

which opsi boss

[sharp vine]

The one in the center of the map

[plain saffron]

if normal you can go out and heal, or use reorder command
if hard, just leave

before you ask how to leave if boss not dead. there's a big EXIT button at bottom right

[sharp vine]

When I come back is it gonna have its health reset

[inner delta]

no

[plain saffron]

if normal nope, if hard yes

[sharp vine]

How do I know if it's normal or hard

[plain saffron]

top left, the name

[sharp vine]

OK one sec, fleet 4 is doing their best rn

Nvm fleet 4 is cooked

[plain saffron]

remember call subs if you have any

[sharp vine]

I don't

My 5th year playing this game and I don't have a single sub built lol

[wind hazel]

time to build one

[sharp vine]

Nah, I'd win

OK, do I get another UR print if I re challange the arbiter on hard mode

[tame jungle]

Check wiki for rewards

But to answer your question: no

[plain saffron]

once you reach a milestone on % of boss HP left you get a rewards. if you rechallenge you won't get it again unless you hit new milestone

[plucky garnet]

how many opsi daily mission i can stack now?

[tame jungle]

That’s also on the wiki

[plain saffron]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Operation_Siren#Daily_Missions
all cap is here

[tame jungle]

12 queued, 5 per day and 6 per day on weekends

[plain saffron]

12 is queue in place to accept btw, the one in your mission tab is 7

[normal hollow]

Can someone tell me if the equipment is good?
Been using the equipment guide sheet but I still have trouble understanding what I'm even doing.
Also does a higher percentage mean its better?

[crimson glacier]

the % doesnt care about the gear

[normal hollow]

Then what does it mean?

[crimson glacier]

dmg multiplier

zwei just has those multipliers on those slots no matter what

[jaunty vault]

its ship locked not gear locked

[normal hollow]

huh?

[jaunty vault]

what part of the above did you not understand

the gear is good, modifications can be made depending on content

[normal hollow]

oh

[atomic abyss]

the efficiency %-ages, simply put are damage modifiers unique to the ship in question

[frank pulsar]

no matter what equipment zwei has, the multipliers are the same
its an additional multiplier to whatever armament is equipped in the slot

[plain saffron]

it's just a multiplier, fixed per ship and only increase with Limit Break, or some skill

[atomic abyss]

a few ships have skills that can increase them with certain gear choices
bisk zwei isn't one of them

[normal hollow]

i see.. thank you

[frank pulsar]

and also that secondary gun you have equipped is not worth the +13

[plain saffron]

also there's 1 gear that have skill to increase it but only for DD

and nimi augment

was it nimi or someone else 🏃‍♂️

[gusty olive]

Whats a better set up for mob fleet? (HMS)

QE, Uni, Formi

or

Nelson, QE, Uni

[crimson glacier]

id use nelson uni and some good carrier

[tame jungle]

yeah i second this

i think independence would be a good fit

[gusty olive]

theres better option sure but Im asking about the two options

[atomic abyss]

use ark at that point

[gusty olive]

she's in boss fleet

this is opsi mob yes

[uneven cave]

Are you looking to optimise your opsi mob fleet, or are you just playing around with the ships you got

[gusty olive]

just fucking around in a faction fleet. My serious fleets are my CV and BB boss fleets

[wind hazel]

optimizing HMS fleet

[uneven cave]

2nd option

[round abyss]

whats a good fleet for level 95 hiryuu daily (suicide boats)

[crimson glacier]

battleships with CL gun secondaries

[winged mauve]

are the flares in w14 better used on boss or mob fleet?

[round abyss]

im dying even with level 125 bb/bc with low damage but good protection cl guns

[atomic abyss]

can we see what you're using?

i find it very hard to believe you're dying

[vale spindle]

try both and see what works for you

[atomic abyss]

those are definitely NOT good

[uneven cave]

[vale spindle]

you need to enhance the guns

[atomic abyss]

hood is horrible at suicide boat interception

[round abyss]

yeah but are they the right ones

[atomic abyss]

remove hood period

[round abyss]

twin 152?

[vale spindle]

yes, although ideally you upgrade the twin 128 purple -> twin 128 gold in gear lab

[atomic abyss]

twin 152 is fine if upgraded

but hood is horrible for suicide boat interception period

[round abyss]

yeah i can try other bb/bc, just dont have them at level 125

[vale spindle]

thats fine

[atomic abyss]

you can clear it with under level 100 BBs lol

[vale spindle]

you just need mlb lvl 90 with the correct aux gun

[uneven cave]

• enhanced

[round abyss]

which stat am i looking at? fp?

[atomic abyss]

no

[round abyss]

to choose a bb

[atomic abyss]

BBs with CL secondaries

So none of the US ones, not Hood

[vale spindle]

not the monitors if they show up under the filter

[uneven cave]

As long as you do those, stat is irrelevant cause every BB is gonna have enough to deal with suicide boats

[round abyss]

then my fusou with enhanced twin 152 should be good?

[uneven cave]

Should be decent enough though I'm giga out of touch with that daily challenge

[final saffron]

Yo, relatively still new to this game. Just finished this challenge. Who's the best to get? I already have Enterprise thanks yall 💜

[sweet delta]

depends on what BBs you have

[final saffron]

Not really much lol just casual playing

[sweet delta]

get Hood, but you probably also want to get some fleet help by starting a thread here

[final saffron]

I think I'll be okay with the fleet. Hood sounds good to me thanks 💜

[tiny cliff]

Its stuck like this after update. Can anyone have ideas?

[jaunty vault]

clear cache, force stop, restart

if it continues, #tech-support

[plain saffron]

change internet, or restart wifi, or enable then disable airplane mode if on mobile data
last resort use vpn

[jaunty vault]

give it some time to load after restart

[tiny cliff]

I will try,thanks guys

[trim otter]

Hi is there Anyway I can sell the extra box's? I just don't have enough space... thanks.

[steady beacon]

Can I buy them bc what I would give for 126 SR rolls

[novel condor]

same

[vast kettle]

Hi guys! I'm having issues logging in with Facebook (it's an old account that I am trying to get back into, but it was linked to my facebook). It gives me a "failed to verify third party parameter" error

Sorry I realize this is a tech support question I'll ask there my bad

[normal crane]

Is it important to do a fate simulation for anchorage?

[atomic abyss]

considering you can just coin her fate sim... yes?

i mean obviously if you're asking between dev 30-ing avp or fs5-ing ancho
avp to 30 first

[normal crane]

So should i wait for the discount ?

[atomic abyss]

you get the discount everyday tho

[normal crane]

She's already dev30 yah

[atomic abyss]

if you alr have avp unlocked and lack implacable, focus on coining avp to dev 30 first

otherwise, just continue with ancho

[sly raven]

are BBs better for bosses and CVs for mob in general?

[atomic abyss]

there isn't really a way to make syuch a generalisation

the best mob fleets are usually 1 BB and 2 CV (one of which is unicorn)

the best boss fleet depends on the boss in question

light armoured bosses are best countered by BBs
heavy armoured bosses are best countered by CVs

[sly raven]

i actually wanted a 3CV line up for bosses but i cant seem to make a good one

and my BB line up performs much better

[atomic abyss]

any triple CV set up for bosses demands a slower

[south sequoia]

Whether or not you want an all x hull backline or a combination depends on the content you are doing

In opsi you ideally actually want both a bb and cv boss fleet

[sly raven]

thats helpful .

[plain saffron]

who here was playing with 120 fps again, does it still does weird things when at 120 fps?

[sly raven]

oh

[gloomy mesa]

Are these 2 any good?

[south sequoia]

^^ slow supports are yumi from the senran collab, ark royal, august von parseval and implacable

[atomic abyss]

vauquelin no kuybyshev yes

[south sequoia]

kuyby good but not exactly something you pick up and raise as an early game player

save your bulins for when event drops this tuesday

[gloomy mesa]

Okay, guess another one on standby 😂

[crisp estuary]

Rockets need slows?

[gloomy mesa]

Why?

[south sequoia]

potentially better ships for you to use your bulins on

[sly raven]

guess i need help for opsi fleet comp

[crisp estuary]

Holy day shift

[south sequoia]

not as reliant as compared to TB's but it still helps

[frank pulsar]

depends on boss, some dont need it some need
slow always helps though even if the boss dont need it

[sly raven]

need some help here

[gloomy mesa]

Does that mean that I should ignore hood and enterprise untill Tuesday?

[tame jungle]

Probably

[gloomy mesa]

Okay, I'll just take them along and lvl them without MLBing them

[atomic abyss]

actually

[tame jungle]

Just slap then in the dorm or something?

[atomic abyss]

there weren't any backline SRs this upcoming event

[tame jungle]

Would Béarn meta use the meta leveling system?

[south sequoia]

It's safe to slap ssr bulins for your backline since the only ssrs in this event are a CA and the one not even requiring a bulin but a different form

[atomic abyss]

bearn would use meta system yes

so i would work on them

[tame jungle]

Right yeah then you could probably just use your bulins

[atomic abyss]

i'd say mlb your hood and enty

[tame jungle]

Hood/enty are still very usable ships so you will get a lot of value out of them anyway

[south sequoia]

And it's not like you'll end up using alsace instantly since you're still fairly new and the bulins needed for her take a long time to get

Though, if you grind enough and this event you could be able to have her completed within 2 months but it's a bit if you're able to gather 30k event points for the ur bulin

but it does last 3 weeks

a lot can happen in 3 weeks so try your best

[gloomy mesa]

Hmm okay

[gloomy mesa]

Takes too long 😭

[tame jungle]

If you’re leveling them by playing you wanna put them in the dorm anyway

[gloomy mesa]

6 more lvls on hood before I can MLB her, somehow can't wait

[gloomy mesa]

Already doing so

Only just got enterprise, so that's definitely going to take a while, might as well wait till Tuesday

[mystic acorn]

Need some help, is there a way to do the skip skill? My OCD tingles seeing this

OTL

[icy mountain]

thank you so much 🙏

[whole crypt]

what are the last talent options, there might be something more useful than forest

[mystic acorn]

DD evasion

And ASW DD

What do you think?

[vital inlet]

Hello I'm kinda new to this game and recently got back into it can someone help me build a team for most story content?

[tame jungle]

Show dock?

[south sequoia]

It sucks

[vital inlet]

Im out now prolly later

[south sequoia]

Actually, trying to build vanguard cats are really pointless outside memeing or absolute focus to vanguard dps instead of trying to go for backline dps

[novel condor]

Guess half my ssr card r useless then

[blazing shale]

Do new URs also have a UR bulin in the milestone rewards?

[south sequoia]

URs always have a bulin in their milestone, especially reruns

[worldly pewter]

that question is weird

[blazing shale]

And the shop UR will probably be a drop ship, right?

[atomic abyss]

nope

bearn meta is likely drop ship

[sharp token]

the incoming update in 21 is for new banner?

[atomic abyss]

yes

[worldly pewter]

are ur coins ready

[whole crypt]

bulin is 30k in milestone for new events, 15k in reruns
alsace will be build
mogs will be a currency separate of normal event points, which you will probably earn by just playing event and also buy more of using event points

[sharp token]

loaded up with 350,000 coins

[copper pine]

is the coin cap really made to be low? (im at 142 and coin is not even 100k cap)

[whole crypt]

considering we already have Epee listed for milestone yes Bearn META will probably be drop/shop

[strong tartan]

it's 500k iirc

[atomic abyss]

hard cap 600k

[copper pine]

500k is the hard cap

[whole crypt]

hardcap 600k

[strong tartan]

oh 600k

[atomic abyss]

and yes it is meant to be low

[copper pine]

still, the soft cap sucks ass

[whole crypt]

just ignore it if you're grinding coins

[copper pine]

feels like 4000 oil and 12k coins is... just there to hang around

[whole crypt]

definitely spend your oil

[copper pine]

i am, with 13-4 books and still 4k reserve from the canteen

[whole crypt]

what books?

[copper pine]

2x books

[whole crypt]

HELPs are whatever

[steady beacon]

Until we have to do another event grind
Then they're precious treasures

[whole crypt]

canteen cap is 3.6k so I have no idea how you have 4k
and if it's capping out you're wasting oil regen

[versed elk]

id rather have the hard cap gold so i can buy gear skin boxes

[worldly pewter]

is it only me or for 5 months now i barely have a chance to hit the soft cap ?

[versed elk]

i went below soft cap for like 3 days cuz i didnt sortie outside of event for like 2 weeks

[copper pine]

ahh 3,6k

[versed elk]

now im at like 450k

[jaunty vault]

its just you

[late flame]

b-but i wanna collect coins from merchant

[versed elk]

literally just play the game and the coins come

[whole crypt]

whether you hit cap is a matter of how much you spend vs how much you grind
but regardless capping on coin is fine, capping on oil is more wasteful

[south sequoia]

If you've been below soft cap a lot you just haven't been playing the game enough

[versed elk]

only time ur coins should drop is if u don’t sortie for a long time

[worldly pewter]

this never occurred to me will do so

[whole crypt]

you can be below softcap for coin if spend a shit tonne

[versed elk]

yea but thats like rolling cats and stuff

[jaunty vault]

or spending too much

[whole crypt]

spend this

[versed elk]

i mean i roll cats also but i just farm high gold efficiency stages

[copper pine]

im doing 2x runs on 13-4, that's like decent amount of oil at once

[whole crypt]

like you don't need to use all of it, but canteen store shouldn't ever cap

[worldly pewter]

if u are slow do 12-4

[copper pine]

bruh i did 15-4 by week 2, im not that weak

[versed elk]

al is the type of game where at no point should u be starved for resources since everything comes so quickly from just playing regularly

its just about playing regularly that bores people

[whole crypt]

I'm done with 15-4 and I run 13-1 all the time, I don't see the problem

[versed elk]

aside from coggies of course

[whole crypt]

it doesn't mean you're done with 15-4 you have to run higher stages

[worldly pewter]

there are things that can make someone overflow with oil
mainly trying to maintain 120 moral for exp effeciency

[whole crypt]

at the end of the day you're just XP grinding so it's wherever your ships can handle

[versed elk]

bruh thats stupid as fuck

just grind, coggies is alr limited

[whole crypt]

yes

[inland shoal]

Even cogs?

[versed elk]

and exp packs pile up like crazy

[novel condor]

Me for w14 smh

[versed elk]

bruh thorin…

[south sequoia]

oh by the way, 15-4 oil/coin ratio is crazy low right? like lower than 13-4 and 14-4

[inland shoal]

I'm EN for a reason

[late flame]

just go fox mines ez

[copper pine]

i still have that much left...

[versed elk]

idk but 15-4 isnt worth it simply cuz its way too long

[whole crypt]

that's why you're capped on canteen, go grind

[south sequoia]

true, 13-4 spam is still the way to go I guess

[copper pine]

i already got most to 120

[versed elk]

rather do 13-4 or something for time eff

[whole crypt]

last I checked lower than 14, not sure about 13

[versed elk]

nah i think 14-1 or 13-2 or something is better

[whole crypt]

if you're at that point coins shouldn't be a real issue, grind 13-1 or 14-1 for cogs or something

[versed elk]

u shouldnt be touching w12 after lvl 15+

unless u want to level indiscriminately and ignore the 1/10 hq exp

[whole crypt]

nothing wrong with grinding 12 even after finishing 15

[copper pine]

unless 2-3 ships is below level 80

[jaunty vault]

150

[versed elk]

i care about hq exp so im not touching 12-4 after im lvl 151

[whole crypt]

unless you mean commander XP

[versed elk]

i do mean commander exp, since im 149 rn

[wind hazel]

but why

[copper pine]

i mean commander XP does come naturally when you spam right?

[inland shoal]

Tbh idk why one would care about cmdr exp

[versed elk]

pretty close to the point i stop grinding w12 and move to 13/14 for vanguards

[jaunty vault]

why care about anything at all

[south sequoia]

Doesn't the commander exp lower by a lot at a certain level threshold?

[worldly pewter]

maybe a metric to measure the account progression in gear

[copper pine]

now if each commander above level 150 gives 200 gems per level, then i would care

[versed elk]

i mean i care about it cus its fun and i get to compete with my friends

[jaunty vault]

thats what brah is saying

[late flame]

maybe i'll care if scamcat sells lv150 commander pack in shop

[versed elk]

thats fleet power

[inland shoal]

Yes that's why w12 is very bad for it after like lvl 150

[whole crypt]

well I don't run 12 because it's worse cog/oil, it's just coincidence that it's also worse CXP for me

[south sequoia]

Oh

[copper pine]

just realized cleo?

[late flame]

lol

[versed elk]

i mean cog per oil is also a factor, as well as the fact i have not enough backlines to lvl..

[copper pine]

[south sequoia]

To be fair, I never really cared about cmdr exp and I didnt notice brahs comment

im also stupid

[worldly pewter]

when does someone run into a cog issue ?

[copper pine]

i have 8 level from 150, soooo.....

[versed elk]

when you awaken too much units

[south sequoia]

When they've got too many tech ships to level or ships to level in general

[whole crypt]

well I have to level Formidable Muse and Kongou Muse if I want to level any main fleet ship

[copper pine]

i mean, how much cogs needed to upgrade every single ship in AL to 120

[versed elk]

yeah same im leveling them rn tho

[copper pine]

like a million cogs?

[inland shoal]

Should be sth like a million

[versed elk]

actually i do have collabs but id rather level the muse ships

[south sequoia]

Once you're out of level and tech hell, the cogs just stack unless you're one of those people who endlessly grind to get every single ship to 120

[versed elk]

all those trash merchants like the kizuna ai ships gonna give me cancer

[late flame]

i'm feeling it ngl
then again i am levelling a fleet of muse ships for shit and giggles

[inland shoal]

Wym my precious DD rld tech

[whole crypt]

wiki being slow, how much was it for 100-120 for an elite ship and SR ship?

[versed elk]

sr is 2.2k

elite i forgot i think 1.8 or something

[jaunty vault]

UR is 3.3

[whole crypt]

I think the last time I did a fermi estimate for total cogs needed was around 1.5M

[south sequoia]

on the grind for dd eva I see

[copper pine]

if each commander level above level 150 gives 200 gems per level, at least i would try level them up

[wind hazel]

not even 1m wtf ez

[jaunty vault]

what is that number even for

[whole crypt]

where did that come from

[inland shoal]

That with non fleet techs?

[versed elk]

remaining in collection

[wind hazel]

yeah not including all the collab smol ships i guess

[inland shoal]

From here https://retropaint.github.io/azur-lane-fleet-tech-tracker/

[versed elk]

retropaint

[wind hazel]

wait actually lemme check lol

[copper pine]

lets say + 100 ships from collabs

that's like... extra 100k cogs?

[wind hazel]

yeah exclude. 1m+ is closer i guess

[inland shoal]

It has a switch to include collabs etc

So just flip it and check again

[versed elk]

some would argue that collab isnt worth awakening

[wind hazel]

🏃‍♂️ cant find it

[south sequoia]

depends on the person and where they are at in the game

I would say collabs are worth it depending on the ship

[versed elk]

but collab has some very strong ships like tamaki and klaudia

[inland shoal]

Then they can just use the number we already have

[south sequoia]

of all the collab ships, klaudia should be one of the ships with use in late game

klaudia stronk she can do work for w15

[inland shoal]

Btw all ships including collabs and child and muse is 1115400

[late flame]

me coping for klaudia rerun since i joined after ryzer collab ended

[whole crypt]

I give up, I can't use a list that sorts by alphabetical order

[inland shoal]

You can choose the sorting between alphabetical, level and rarity

[late flame]

site not loading for me sadge

[versed elk]

i mean doesnt really mayter just play and see what happens

[whole crypt]

it's still alphabetic at the base, it's a bitch to find ships if it's not in gallery order

[wind hazel]

yeah it's kinda pepega. doesn't load on my chrome, loads on firefox and edge

[copper pine]

if only we can pull data from our AL game and transfer it to that website so it syncs with everything we have

[versed elk]

im mostly past the cog crunch sincd i 90% have elites and below left

[whole crypt]

I just know I have about 1000 more faction tech points left

[inland shoal]

That's fair enough

[whole crypt]

roughly I should be done in about 160~180k chips

[plain saffron]

hi

[crisp estuary]

[lone vigil]

is it worth using promise ring on enterprise or unicorn for stats or saving for units i like

[blissful hamlet]

does the future 3d game mode will add another huge update or was the assets already added on previous update?

[atomic abyss]

just use for waifu unless you want to pvp try hard or something

[lone vigil]

k

[plain saffron]

idk about 1st part but answer to 2nd part is no

afaik only coding for 3d dorm are added

and some test assets

and the entire voicelines lmao

[blissful hamlet]

Another 20gb updates soon

Time to buy new phone

[midnight bluff]

For opsi, what do these map loggers do exactly? They give you a corresponding map with the stated corrosion level but what does that location drop?

[atomic abyss]

simply put, materials for gear lab

[midnight bluff]

So anytime you see a logger at the port, you want to buy all of them as it gives you more chances for gear lab stuff

[atomic abyss]

or at least, the higher rarity ones

[midnight bluff]

Like the rainbow report?

[atomic abyss]

yeah
rainbow ones unlock abyssals iirc

[plain saffron]

it just spawn a hidden/abyssal zone, then you go clear it

good source of gear lab mat, rainbow bp is RNG if abyssal

[midnight bluff]

Should i prioritze finishing the story quests first or spamming loggers since i have so many

[plain saffron]

finish story

[midnight bluff]

ok ty

[plain saffron]

it won't take long anyway

[midnight bluff]

Goes to chapter 5 right?

[tame jungle]

Correct

[smoky palm]

So like.. in OpSi is there no way to view my current daily quests and what their rewards are once ive accepted them?..

[plain saffron]

click the information button

[smoky palm]

like I have no clue which green exlamation gives what tho..

like my mission hub isnt showing ones ive accepted..

[plain saffron]

green are daily missions

are you sure it's not because the one you seeing are from yesterday

works fine

also you can click on them

[smoky palm]

I mean I clicked accept on one, and none of the ones in my mission hub match the rewards it listed..

[plain saffron]

not match as in only show 2 of them instead of entire reward?

[dawn hamlet]

I heard 9-1 is a good node to farm gold, how much do we get per run?

[plain saffron]

9-1 is lot better than all below 9-1

i don't really remember, like 800?

[smoky palm]

Ohhhh.. im dumb.. I didnt realize you had to click on it

[plain saffron]

[smoky palm]

I was looking for a specfic one but since I only saw 2 rewards I didnt realize

[plain saffron]

yeah a lot of stuff in this game is clickable

[dawn hamlet]

thanks!

[willow crag]

Hold up, am I reading this correctly or did Azur Lane just give us 2 ultra rares in 1 event

[uneven badger]

break guam or nj

[atomic abyss]

save because new URs are coming

[atomic abyss]

not the first time

[plain saffron]

yes but 1 is non gacha

[uneven badger]

is she that strong

[willow crag]

whens the first time huh

[warm flax]

Break

[atomic abyss]

we don't know, that's why we recommend to save

[late flame]

dec2023 guam/laff2

[willow crag]

wdym non gacha

[warm flax]

Buyable through point accumulation

[plain saffron]

you get Mogador from separate minievent/shop

[willow crag]

oh really? I didnt notice, I thought the first would be Shima + Yuudachi retrofit

[plain saffron]

alsace is gacha

[warm flax]

Do we consider perma URs

[plain saffron]

ouh nvm my bad

[late flame]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Light-Chasing_Sea_of_Stars

[plain saffron]

i read that as spark accumulation

ur retrofit don't really count

[warm flax]

Time to try this Harbiter after 10 months of playing, I wonder how it'll go

[dawn hamlet]

is there a good free CV ship I can get? Need one to do hard 6-4 and 7-4 to farm for unicorn retrofit

[plain saffron]

enterprise, sara, uni she's cvl my bad

[dawn hamlet]

enterprise is from the medal shop right? CV is not avaible at the moment, what about the rest?

[plain saffron]

sara is a map drop

also see if guild shop spawn retrofit bp

[dawn hamlet]

Saratoga?

alright I'll check thank you

wait I just checked enterprise is free from rookie reward apparently

but is she a good choice among ?

[wind hazel]

yes, it's mostly either enterprise or hood

[broken pivot]

Imo Enterprise would carry for longer

[dawn hamlet]

I see, I already have Odin and play Nelson a lot, I'm gonna take Enterprise then

thanks a bunch guys

[broken pivot]

Taking Enty is probably good as well considering most likely you'll have Alsace and Mogador as ur first URs if ur decently lucky

[dawn hamlet]

true, that's a good point, alright I'll do that then thanks
just need to get access to the rookie reward exam part

[broken pivot]

Also, Remember to get Unicorn retrofitted soon as well, she's useful af

[half plover]

I heard for one event quest it is important to mlb all new event ships right? that means saving bulins will be important?

[dawn hamlet]

yes, I wanted a CV to farm X-4 node for unicorn retrofit, just need 6 gold bp ...

[atomic abyss]

an event quest for a profile border

it's nothing major

[half plover]

ah okay ty, I will still try

[broken pivot]

if Mogador isn't going to be tanky for a DD I'll be disappointed

[forest palm]

[worldly pewter]

for a new player most likely the free UR will remain 3★ for a very very very long time

[forest palm]

it honestly depends on what Mog brings to the table, cause Laffii herself is a very valuable end game DD

[worldly pewter]

that is what is saddening me the most
i can't invest into laffei

that is why i m planning to go full 200 roll on this banner vanguard and jp anni banner

fishing for dupes

[forest palm]

not the most healthy thing to do

plus ya'll get 6k sp cores per month now meaning outside of events you can average MLB a UR in 3.5 months or less

[worldly pewter]

i thought about it from all angles TBH if i want to mlb laffei i have to do this at least and be decently lucky to get 1-2 early ones

before the spark i mean

[worldly pewter]

k now put this into this plan
getting the new URs vanguard rerun shinano and jp anni

[silver lintel]

Counting cruise pass means its 2months

[worldly pewter]

is this doable without fishing for dupes ?

i mean i want to not go this road by all means if there is any alternative

[forest palm]

3.5 months per Bulin, cruise pass every 2~ months, UR events give a Bulin itself, it's rough but you're still catching up

[half plover]

how to even get laffey 😭

[steady beacon]

Wait about two years, at this point

[half plover]

ooh nvm I mean laffey II

[forest palm]

[silk sphinx]

That is also what they meant

[worldly pewter]

k let me put this into a better accurate perspective
i have 12k cores 1 bulin from the pass
so that is an mlb for the new UR
now what is left is 4 for shinano 4 for laffei 4 for vanguard and 4 for the jp anni in september so i will calculate the income until september
4 months is 24k cores 2 passes and 3 milestones which is 13 bulin and i need 16
ignoring the walfares

[steady beacon]

The trick is to become like some players in my guild, who manage to get multiple copies of the UR while going past pity for that one miserable Elite 👀

[forest palm]

they accounted for that

[wind hazel]

just play long enough, and you'll catch up

[forest palm]

like I said it's rough, but you're still ctaching up

[cobalt rapids]

thinking ull only need 4 for jp annie

[forest palm]

they've been inconsistent, so who knows

[steady beacon]

The real prank is that'll be a triple UR event

[silk sphinx]

Well just don’t mlb every UR ig

[silver lintel]

Still regret sinking bulins into shima💀💀💀

[wind hazel]

seeing as they increased core limit from 4k to 5k, and adding another 1k from medal shop, you'd better assume 2 UR is gonna be somewhat more than once a year thing

[silk sphinx]

Some were definitely skippable, like shima and kron

And even nj is skippable to an extent given that she’s amongst the weaker UR bbs

[waxen flicker]

I have a question, are st. louis and saint louis which you can get from research two different ships?

[atomic abyss]

yes

[steady beacon]

They are indeed two different ships

[atomic abyss]

one is american, one is french

[waxen flicker]

Hm, thats interesting

[cobalt rapids]

same as enterprise and enterprise

[waxen flicker]

How can I can get that which jas blue hair? Because I really want to buy a new swimsuit skin for her

[atomic abyss]

10-2 drop only ship

[silk sphinx]

The skin one is the non research one

[atomic abyss]

or was it 10-3

[worldly pewter]

isn't this the same name ?

[steady beacon]

Out of curiosity, mate
You do know there are TWO URs this time right 👀
Or is one of Alsace or Mogador not factoring into your resource expenditure

[hard mesa]

10 2 was honolulu

[silk sphinx]

Yes they do have the same name

[undone plover]

there is an HMS enterprise

[waxen flicker]

Hm, so I have to clear 10-2 level to get her?

[worldly pewter]

i meant by "walfare" the free ones except laffei

[atomic abyss]

you have to clear AND farm 10-3
(not 10-2 sorry)

[silver lintel]

In b4 ur bb with preload lmao

[waxen flicker]

Oh, understood, thanks for the help!

[undone plover]

elites take some time to drop. u might have to farm it 20-30 times from experience. ofc it is all rng

[broken pivot]

ur BB with preload is crazy 💀

[waxen flicker]

Oh, thats a long time haha

[sleek spade]

Wait May 21st? I thought it’s 23rd…

[atomic abyss]

21st

tuesday

[broken pivot]

Don't question it, that's a good thing

[sleek spade]

Oh shet! Early update! Big hype!!!

[silk sphinx]

This time we don’t know why tbh

[worldly pewter]

just go with the flow

[silk sphinx]

But it’s a good thing, more time for vouchers and stuff

[broken pivot]

After Unzen we got this. . . .man

On edge fr fr

[worldly pewter]

unzen ?

[silk sphinx]

Why bring up unzen indeed…

[broken pivot]

Specifically the ammount of fabric covering the breasts is what I mean

[wind hazel]

[broken pivot]

(that's a bad thing in my book idk wdym(

[sullen creek]

Go be horny somewhere else

[sleek spade]

#al-general

[atomic abyss]

[jaunty vault]

and they call me a backseat mod

[half plover]

after I finish FdG missions, would AvP be alright to start next when I dont have enough tech for Anchorage yet or would you rather pick Prinz Rupprecht, Mainz, Odin, Feliz Schulz or PR1 Neptune/Ibuki

[jaunty vault]

avp is fine

[half plover]

I basically just got IB tech at this point or PR1

[blissful hamlet]

Avp is good

[half plover]

ty

[sullen creek]

Avp vs fine vs avp is good

[jaunty vault]

avp is a fine pick
avp is a good ship

[south sequoia]

The only thing that could replace avp is a ship that's not even available right now

[crisp estuary]

[round hare]

Which ports in Opsi have resupply shops?

[wind hazel]

blue ones

[undone plover]

the blue ones

[round hare]

Right

[hushed dawn]

Are any of the 4 barreled BB guns any good?

KGV, Richelieu, etc.

[south sequoia]

No

[undone plover]

JB gun for JB but no one uses JB

[round hare]

How many are there in total? 3?

[hushed dawn]

Guh, there goes my plan of giving Alsace 4 barreled BB guns.

[south sequoia]

I believe we still don't have any gear/shop previews for the event right?

[atomic abyss]

We do not yes

[forest palm]

not even JB wants that gun lol

[undone plover]

after opsi reset u can just go to any of them and swap between them from the top

[south sequoia]

Problem is if you were to not use jb gun on jb you might as well use any other ship in the game
her whole thing is tied to that gun, only people patient enough for rng is willing to use jb
aka simps

[forest palm]

people always look at the fact that 380 1935 buffs Bart, but there's so many negatives to using it over say a 406/50, or MK7

[south sequoia]

If we were to ever get a good 4 barrel that would be too good I fear

All the 4 barrels have been HE/Normal right?

[half plover]

I have a question about opsi, I unlocked 4 fleets and it says I need to deploy them but it costs 100 AP.. is this right?😭

[undone plover]

wait 24h cost goes down to 0

[half plover]

oh ty

[forest palm]

I can only think of the 365, and 380, which both of those are

[undone plover]

althought idk how it is when u unlock it for the first time. should have been free

[atomic abyss]

If you ask me

[plain saffron]

prob used it before

[half plover]

I just changed my fleet to level up other ships and then unlocked the mission right after. it cant get worse

[atomic abyss]

If you already have the 380 for JB, just use it
Otherwise not worth getting it from the shop lmao
But then why use JB lul

[plain saffron]

i reorganised my 2 fleet, then unlock 4 fleet immediately after

[half plover]

so no idea if 100AP will replenish in 24h or if I should just wait and ignore opsi for today at ap cap

[atomic abyss]

Fleet deployment has a 24h cooldown

[hard mesa]

it isnt about dmg, the quad 380mm gun salvo pattern isnt good

[undone plover]

if u dont want to wait u can pay the price. if u have been doing your daily missions and not wasting a lot of AP u should have a good amount of AP left even after clearing all the stuff that u can clear for the month

[half plover]

yeah I got some ap chests I never used

I will just bite the bullet and play opsi lmao

[undone plover]

if u have been overcapping on the 200 per day u might not have enough left for everything though. if u can wait better to wait

[atomic abyss]

The 380 isnt good but it isnt that bad

[wind hazel]

is your fleet totally unusable for opsi?

[atomic abyss]

I mean it boils down to why would you use JB anyways

[steady beacon]

So why did you use JB that one time against Temperance?

[atomic abyss]

Cos she's 125?

And so is my Richy

Level advantage is just too big to ignore

[steady beacon]

I jest, of course
And she did MVP or something didn't she

[forest palm]

when we call it JB gun, but it's just the Richie Class standard gun

[atomic abyss]

Like to be frank
If for some reason you wanted to use JB
It'll probably not be the best idea to invest the gold and plates into the q.380

That's the reason for not recommending the q.380 for JB

It's the goddamn opportunity cost again

[undone plover]

after a while it doesnt matter that much. u can keep a +13 JB gun to eventually convert to champy

[half plover]

yup totally unusable. I payed the 99ap bc I just need the final FdG exp to unlock it

[atomic abyss]

Not a bad shout tbh...

[steady beacon]

Wait, wait 👀
Were you talking about taking Rich gun to... +13?

[atomic abyss]

No no, I was talking about upgrading the gun to begin with

[steady beacon]

Oh OK, thank God
I had a heart attack there

[atomic abyss]

Don't you also have to get it from core shop to begin with...

[steady beacon]

My copy is from Skybound Oratorio's shop

[undone plover]

it is gear lab or coreshop

[steady beacon]

Also you can probably farm it from D3 of the upcoming event ngl...

[atomic abyss]

Nah pilica
French AA guns

For them rainbow 57s

[steady beacon]

[viscid swift]

But the starting AA gun is a rare...

[steady beacon]

It's both btw

[undone plover]

yeah that is what i meant

[atomic abyss]

I know

[steady beacon]

Oh smh
I read it as "is it" instead of "it is"
EN moment

[atomic abyss]

The alternative is you farm baguette guns

[steady beacon]

Lol
Checking Fool's Scales
D1 was Baguette
D2 was Algerie
D3 was Riche
Classic French event

[forest palm]

you can just craft the 138 at this point...

[steady beacon]

You can craft all three at this point

[forest palm]

almost like suggesting map gear farming is pointless

[atomic abyss]

I mean you say that but didn't the folks here farm hvarcats

[steady beacon]

Until PSI reruns

[viscid swift]

Well farming map gear is pointless 99% of the time

[steady beacon]

Actually
Was PSI before or after my harrowing Zara gun farm...
I can't even remember anymore...
Probably because I wanted to blot the latter out of my memory...

[undone plover]

if u are farming D3 anyway it is a nice bonus.

[hard mesa]

PSI?

[undone plover]

Yorkii event

[steady beacon]

Parallel Superimposition

[undone plover]

at this rate expecting HVARcats to be eventually in some shop is also not that wild no?

[hard mesa]

theres tashgun so...

[steady beacon]

Eventually, probably
After the event is permanent in like... 2027 or something

[viscid swift]

Well no but considering it hasn't even rerun yet

[forest palm]

Russian Twin 130 kind of pointless when they added Chinese Twin 130

[hard mesa]

i still prefer tashgun tho

[forest palm]

for all intents, and purposes they're literally the same gun

[sleek spade]

Real…

[steady beacon]

Instructions received. Put Harbin gun on Tashkent.

[forest palm]

people still use her?

[sleek spade]

But how come honey bunny’s gun is in lab… Im so sad I wont have enough UR top secrets to get many of those if they need those

How many UR top secrets can you get per month by default? 3?

[steady beacon]

4

[warm flax]

How

[steady beacon]

Three from shop, one from Arbiter
And then... any more per month are luck

[forest palm]

don't even know what mats the MK7'll need

[normal hollow]

Is it just me or is the fleetmaker tab in the ECTL not working?
Also asking if there's another one that I can use

[sullen creek]

Opinion rejected tashgun is slightly better

[sleek spade]

Ah ok

[steady beacon]

If you have any of the uh
What are they called
The one-time loggers
You can get one from each logger as well

[sleek spade]

I used all of those lol

[steady beacon]

https://renhex.github.io/AzurLaneFleet/

[hard mesa]

now whether mk7 will use electronics or not

[sleek spade]

Will use 100%. They will try to fuck us over!!

[warm flax]

Oh I think ur referring to design plans

[sleek spade]

Yea I mean the ordnance thingy

[steady beacon]

Oh my bad

Uhhh
One per month guaranteed in shop
And I guess six of the SRs that can build up to it
OK but jeez, that one is MUCH harder to get, on the whole

[sleek spade]

Yea that one’s rarity is fucked

[undone plover]

UR ordnance is 1 only.
u can convert t2 ordnance at 8:1
there is 6 t2 guarenteed per opsi cycle
~15 from rng is a decent estimate I would say
but also remember a lot of the good gold gear needs the T2 ordnance

[blissful hamlet]

You can get up to 15-20 gold ordnance if you do everything in opsi

[sleek spade]

Yea but it’s really rng too… and it’s not like u can convert everything because I need some to make flaps and the likes

[hard mesa]

well mk7 will use ur design plans because it isnt "prototype gear"

[sleek spade]

Ooooooo

That’s great then

[viscid swift]

Or you could just wait for D-Day and see

[sleek spade]

What is DDay

[steady beacon]

June 6th

[sleek spade]

Oh patch deploys on june 6th?

[steady beacon]

(By sheer coincidence, the date they plan to implement the GL update)

[sleek spade]

Nice

[viscid swift]

For the Mk7 yes

[steady beacon]

Sadly, no Mk 7s were involved on D-Day

[sleek spade]

Indeed

[plain saffron]

would be funny ngl

[sleek spade]

So now I can just slowly convert my 10 mk6 to mk7 over 10 months…

[plain saffron]

if it even use that

[warm flax]

Is mk7 that high of a priority over wyvern?

[viscid swift]

We don't even know of it'll branch off the Mk6

[sleek spade]

That sux

[viscid swift]

No

[sleek spade]

I hate teasers…

[exotic wren]

GL?

[plain saffron]

Gear Lab

[steady beacon]

Gear Lab, my bad

[sleek spade]

Electronics are limited. Second 457mm or 3rd wyvern?

[warm flax]

Gear lab

[steady beacon]

The extent of my laziness in typing knows no bounds

[exotic wren]

They gonna change something cept adding gears?

[plain saffron]

just add more gears

[warm flax]

I don't see a scenario where you use 3 wyverns

[sleek spade]

W13+

[plain saffron]

well i do

[steady beacon]

At least so far "Gear Lab update" has always just been adding new gears
