[viscid swift]

those are the exceptions and not the norm

just be patient

[atomic abyss]

not to mention, we just had a major update

and im sure there are more than a few people who did not bind their accounts and reinstalled

so they're probably extra busy

[lone vigil]

why am i seeing so many laffeys in pvp?

[sweet delta]

Ask #pvp

[viscid swift]

because Laffey is one of the starters and Laffey 2 is meta in PvP currently

[plush moon]

anyone got squad to auto 14 from 0 star ? I need some sample

[viscid swift]

depends on what you have

[plush moon]

well i pretty much got everything

[soft raft]

post your dock in a thread anyways

[plush moon]

it just they're uninvest

[viscid swift]

all the PRs maxed? all the gacha URs max limit broken?

[soft raft]

"I have everything" is more vauge than you'd think

[cobalt rapids]

u can copy /w15 comps and replace aux guns on bb with 155kai and replace sandy with ancho in boss

[plush moon]

oh wait PRs, some kinda under invest, if gacha UR then i got everything

[eager mulch]

he doesn’t have everything because his W14 is 0 stars

[topaz smelt]

just use NO to clear w14

[soft raft]

No New orleans smh my head

[viscid swift]

just use Houston 2 to clear W14

[viscid swift]

but anyway, if you can't do that then start a thread and post your dock

[plush moon]

alright i'll

[eager mulch]

what does Houston 2 even do

aside from evade riceist for all of eternity

[jaunty vault]

/wiki houston ii

[worldly pewter]

if u have everything just slam all the UR u have but u need some knowledge in gear

[soft raft]

"UR spam" doesnt exactly work as well as you think for W14 and 15

[plush moon]

Chap 14 full auto team help

this took longer than i thought

[kindred arrow]

Is the new mail UI included in tomorrow's UI update or will that be at a later date? Also do we know if the update means the old mail will disappear? is my precious oil safe

[viscid swift]

tomorrow

[jaunty vault]

your mail will be transferred to some sort of storage from where you can store and use it

[eager mulch]

what about my apologems still in mail

[jaunty vault]

[topaz smelt]

but what about my WA keys in mail

[viscid swift]

that's a thing?

[topaz smelt]

ye

[kindred arrow]

so it won't go kaboom right?

[jaunty vault]

SOS keys

[kindred arrow]

Did they confirm it in livestream

[jaunty vault]

hopefully not

[forest palm]

they're injecting a lot of new shit tomorrow, so pray it doesn't

[topaz smelt]

the game exploded after the last one

[jaunty vault]

i got 151k oil in there so ill be praying for 10 people

[forest palm]

worst we had it was Microlayer, so hope we don't get a repeat of that....

[topaz smelt]

i want a repeat for gems

[kindred arrow]

...I'm praying for my 100k+ oil then
And claiming my apologems today lmao

[still gate]

i think community will kill devs if they make content of mailbox disappear (i will myself)

[topaz smelt]

devs wil just mail 200 apologems

[kindred arrow]

Good ending: they fuck up but send everyone 300k oil

[still gate]

i have more 😦

[topaz smelt]

it should be a pretty simple change anyways, you would have to fuck up pretty hard to break it

[kindred arrow]

I pray

[jaunty vault]

nah you jinxed it

[worldly pewter]

guys are really fretting over an UI change

[inner delta]

[topaz smelt]

nice that means i can tax your apologems

[whole crypt]

besides the update being broken, the UI change is optional

[soft raft]

with the very recent cases of people being unable to login and the plethroa of bugs that spawned after the update last week, I dont blame them

[whole crypt]

and I have a feeling most of the problems were with the last maintenance because of the client update plus how much assets they moved/replaced, the next update should involve less such changes

[topaz smelt]

idk who decided to push a broken update a week before anniv without time to fix them

[worldly pewter]

i think if u are scared about the items in the mail u might aswell be scared about ur other items in the inventory and gear

[eternal basalt]

Must be new here

[inner delta]

move #al-general

[topaz smelt]

it shows

[blazing shale]

first half of the hard stages are not time gated for the event right?

[covert dust]

do we have a maintenance countdown?

[soft raft]

A and C are avaliable from day one
B and D are time gated

[eternal basalt]

Usual time

[soft raft]

There's none right now because ECTL didnt update, but it's 13 hours and 25 mins from now

[covert dust]

alright, thanks alot

[eternal basalt]

It's over 13h

[soft raft]

bleh yeah 13
dunno why I subtracted the 1 lol

[glacial heath]

is there anything i should look for in wishing well? i've been thinking of maybe aquila and avrora?

[atomic abyss]

aquila isn't even permanent so she won't be in wishing well

...and it's running alongside a UR banner
why would you even roll on wishing well

[glacial heath]

you never pull out

[jaunty vault]

Maintenance start <t:1716274800:R> at <t:1716274800:t> and scheduled to end <t:1716303600:R> on <t:1716303600:F>

[soft raft]

Aquila's event has not been archived, and even if it was, it wouldnt qualify for this WW

And I hope you mean Aurora not Avrora because Avrora is barely used for anything outside of collection

[cobalt rapids]

coz i swept the ur banner ofc

[eager mulch]

some people have cubes to spare

[glacial heath]

thx almost mesedup

[whole crypt]

I don't seriously recommend pulling WW unless you're down to a handful of ships you're trying to fish for collection

[worldly pewter]

according to u which are the top ships to select in this wishing well ?

[soft raft]

^
At most I'd go for WW Light pool after getting everyone you want off of the event banner and doing your daily pull there

[glacial heath]

event banner will come tomorrow as well?

[eager mulch]

WW light Kazagumo and Aurora

[glacial heath]

i already have kazagumo

[whole crypt]

the top ships to select for a WW are the last ships you're missing for collection, WW is simply not worth spending over saving for new banners if you're still missing a lot of ships

most of them will show up at some point in your future event builds

now if you really must pull for a waifu and have the cubes for it, go ham I guess?

[viscid swift]

Section 2.1: Pulling on the Wishing Well

But there will almost certainly be a few ships that will evade you even after a few years of pulling. By this point, you will almost certainly have a good stockpile of cubes to be able to pull on Wishing Wells. Now to clarify for those who aren’t aware, Wishing Well is an event that comes around usually twice a year(if you’re on EN once during the CN Anniversary in May and once during the EN Anniversary in August) that allows you to pick 2 ships from one pool to be rated for the duration of the event. I want to stress that you should only pull on these for collection until you’re just missing a few ships for 100%. Doing it sooner usually means you have fewer cubes and thus less buffer room to deal with bad rings on events and a greater likelihood that the ships you choose you’ll randomly pull during an event later on effectively rendering the cubes spent on the Wishing Well. And for all that risk you aren’t getting to 100% any faster so there are few benefits and many risks involved. I would recommend selecting 2 ships from the light pool and just doing your dailies on the Wishing Well if you aren’t pulling on the event(Wishing Well events usually run alongside a new event) until you’re in a position to comfortably be able to spend cubes on Wishing Well events.

meh

[eager mulch]

tldr where?

[cobalt rapids]

when does guide exit beta

[forest palm]

Wishing Well is bait

[eager mulch]

If wishing well is bait then I am a fish

[whole crypt]

cheeks took 7 lines to say what I did in a bit more than 2

[eternal basalt]

It's great to finally pull those last few elusive ships

[glacial heath]

ok, ill just pull for ships from special banner in ww

[forest palm]

let's be honest Wishing Well lands in the most inopportune time

[whole crypt]

finish event banner first, think about WW later

well they always come with the anniversaries so it's up to you to weigh your options

[eternal basalt]

EN WW doesn't

[strange vault]

hard/supply, then where else can we get T3 prints?

[forest palm]

still very much does cause you have a month before JP Anniversary

[whole crypt]

also it's still a major banner, just not an UR one

[forest palm]

those are the main sources

[strange vault]

damb

[viscid swift]

more importantly though, there isn't much worth going for in the first place

[whole crypt]

retrofit prints is just something you build over time, just keep doing your daily hards

[strange vault]

i need 3 of them gold cruiser prints to finish fully retrofitting sandy

[viscid swift]

Aquila whenever she does get added, Aurora, Kazagumo, subs if you need them, that's realistically it outside of what you need for collection

[eternal basalt]

Last year was the first time a major, but point

[whole crypt]

please tell me you actually need to use Sandy soon if you're doing that, because she's overpriced for more than half the game

generally won't recommend retrofitting San Diego until you're around ch12, by which point you shouldn't have too much trouble stocking retrofit prints, or should already have some lying around

[blazing shale]

any good sidegrades for Indomitable in w15?

[strange vault]

she's the only cruiser of mine that actually has retro

[viscid swift]

#bot-spam /w15, there's an entire section for support CVs

[whole crypt]

support fleet? Illustrious

[whole crypt]

you done with Portland?

[viscid swift]

Helena?

[strange vault]

oh i mean i have portland and helena but like

Friedrich is my best cruiser and she doesnt have a retro

[whole crypt]

not all ships have a retrofit

[strange vault]

so i went for sandy for the long term

[viscid swift]

you don't need to actively be doing retrofits

[whole crypt]

well the thing about retrofits is... you don't need to plan for long term

[eternal basalt]

FdG isn't a cruiser

[viscid swift]

and please tell me you're not short on UR Bullins for this upcoming event if you're retroing Sandy

[eager mulch]

Portland retro is required for rookie missions

[strange vault]

carl

[whole crypt]

I think he means Carl

[viscid swift]

Friedrich Carl is

[blazing shale]

oh I was blind, thanks lmao

[strange vault]

nah i still got some

[viscid swift]

7?

[strange vault]

like 5 i think

[eternal basalt]

Forgot she existed

[whole crypt]

the fact of the matter is you don't need to bother retrofitting San Diego until you actually need to use her

retrofits are an instant process as long as you have the resources

[viscid swift]

well you're a bit behind then seeing as we have 2 new URs dropping next event

[whole crypt]

so there's no need to "prepare" your Sandy if you're not there yet

[gloomy mesa]

New players are not supposed to aim for them, right? If yes, I'm screwed for this one I guess 😃

[whole crypt]

you can try

[viscid swift]

aim for what?

[eternal basalt]

They totally should aim for both

[gloomy mesa]

I always need to go for pity on each game

[whole crypt]

Mogador isn't gacha anyway and you still want to do what event builds you can manage

[gloomy mesa]

Kk

[whole crypt]

that's not how statistics works, and you can also get other useful ships even if you don't pull the UR

there'll be enough time to save for next new UR after this

[silk helm]

so i need 9 commander levels to unlock 7-1 😦 Is there a oil efficient strategy for this? should i just save oil and wait for double xp

[gloomy mesa]

So I shouldn't spend my cubes?

[viscid swift]

you should spend cubes on the event tomorrow

[whole crypt]

which part of "there'll be enough time to save for next new UR after this" sounds like "don't build for this event"

[whole crypt]

depends on your ship levels

[gloomy mesa]

Do The Polaris map in the sp section of war archives

[gloomy mesa]

Well I'd need 400 cubes for the next one, correct?

[whole crypt]

the cheapest would be Polaris archive but that needs some levels as well... or if you have higher level ships you can also try other archives

[strange vault]

I’ve put campaign on hold for a bit as I’ve been doing the archives

Should prolly get back to campaign tho lol

[whole crypt]

yes, and there will be enough time to save 400 from 0 after this event ends

[viscid swift]

where exactly are you in the main campaign?

[gloomy mesa]

Oh that's nice

[strange vault]

7-1

[viscid swift]

shouldn't have diverted attention to the WAs then unless it was for commander XP, push to 9-1 asap

[whole crypt]

we only recommend going to archives if you're level-locked from campaign progress

[strange vault]

Sandy is normally in 1st fleet instead of little spee I’m just behind on that event cause of archives lol

What’s 9-1 have

[whole crypt]

the next new UR will likely be in September, the minimum guarantee you get each month is ~168 from logins and missions, and usually 200+ after including commissions

[viscid swift]

those are some very questionable set ups

[silk helm]

okay really dumb question... how do i get data keys

[whole crypt]

go into the archive menu and there should be a claim button in the corner

[gloomy mesa]

When you run out of tickets for war archives you could run the highest story stage you can reasonably take down.

I'm saving some oil by only including 2 ships in my main and only 1 vanguard. When I can I'll use the free space to lvl potentiall ships for my second fleet

[viscid swift]

Tap collect, you get 4 a day

[silk helm]

okay nice. the more you know, thanks!

[gloomy mesa]

Looks like my g has some mad luck or a little money to spend, not too much though

[whole crypt]

note that using less ships give you less commander XP

[gloomy mesa]

THE FFFFFFFFFFFFF!?

[strange vault]

yeah i honest to god spent 0

[viscid swift]

why aren't you using Portland and Helena?

[silk helm]

yeah, so i might just stack my fleet with cheap oil ships

[whole crypt]

before level penalty, though I doubt that's something you need to worry about now

[strange vault]

portland i have in a 3rd fleet to carry some other ships im levelling, Helena i didnt realize was good ig

[gloomy mesa]

So by trying to save oil I technically wasted it all as well as time

[viscid swift]

can you start a thread and post your dock, I want to sort out your fleet issues now before you get too much further

[strange vault]

aight

[gloomy mesa]

Guess I'll fill the remaining spots with possible vanguards

[strange vault]

Dock

[steep merlin]

Is this thing worth doing? Havent touched it in a while

[viscid swift]

at some point yes to farm Divergent Chessboard for IB tech

otherwise not really outside collection and completion

[steep merlin]

Ah I see

[gloomy mesa]

Any worthy vanguards?

[viscid swift]

Kyubyshev is solid

[gloomy mesa]

Just put her in, lol she probably won't survive 7-4 thought

[covert dust]

yooo, thank much

[gloomy mesa]

Worth using bullins on her right now?

[viscid swift]

assuming you have no other ships conflicting with her for bullins right now yes

[atomic abyss]

i'd wait till tmr at least

[viscid swift]

well there's only one ship she's competeing for her and that's Brennus

[strange vault]

is kazagumo any good, i just got her from doing my daily build lmao

[viscid swift]

yes

one of the best pulls you could get from the light pool really

[strange vault]

nice

[gloomy mesa]

Don't know who Brennus is, so I probably don't have her

[viscid swift]

she's one of the event ships dropping tomorrow

[strange vault]

should i swap out Z46 for her or what

[viscid swift]

absolutely not, you have no Gold bUllins right now

[strange vault]

oh true

[gloomy mesa]

Oh okay 👍🏾, should I only focus an her and hood for now and leave enterprise for later?

[viscid swift]

Start with Enterprise and Hood

[keen sable]

Hood already mlb

[gloomy mesa]

Correct

Just asking because of bullins and exp books

[keen sable]

Kuyby doesn't do anything useful for you right now

[gloomy mesa]

Srew me I guess, just bumped her to lvl 30, lol

Should have gone for enti and replaced Shinano-chan with her

All wrong? Lol

[keen sable]

Who are they telling you to use? Kuyby + ? + ?

You need fleet 2. No one is being replaced

Well if you still want to give it a go spee should be 1

[gloomy mesa]

No it's because I'm lvl locked in campaign and my current fleet is just bulldozing the stage (7-4), to save some oil I Left out 2 spots in my vanguard

[keen sable]

Even easier to make fleet 2

[gloomy mesa]

But I could just as well use the space to lvl some ships for fleet 2

That's why I was asking about kuyby to begin with

[keen sable]

You need torps to be safe for event

[topaz smelt]

you dont really save oil leaving empty slots since cmdr exp scales with number of ships

[keen sable]

But w/e. Go like Hood, uni, laffey kuyby mob, penny, shinano, Port, Helena boss

No it doesn't

[gloomy mesa]

Don't have any good top ships

[keen sable]

Thanks for showing proof it doesn't scale

[gloomy mesa]

Fleet suggestions?

That would leave 2 Open spot for each fleet

[keen sable]

Yes, you said you are steamrolling 7-4 and cl capped. Use fewer ships then

[topaz smelt]

could always just save oil for the event

[gloomy mesa]

Okay

I'm caping on oil, not worth it

[topaz smelt]

youre not really capped until your canteen is full

[pulsar drum]

Seeing the news about the META ship dock change, does that mean we are basically getting back that dock space in the normal dock? Assuming anyone knows.

[viscid swift]

yes

[gloomy mesa]

Oh true

[pulsar drum]

Sweet

[keen sable]

Which will happen during maintenance

Imo you will just end up minning with no max if you try to wait. You need to prep for SP and D3 yesterday

[gloomy mesa]

Didn't know that

[keen sable]

Every sp run is worth over a 1000 oil in mouchers probably.

[topaz smelt]

most ppl arent gonna go for a 2nd copy

[gloomy mesa]

Should I add enterprise to my mob fleet?

Mob and boss fleet

[topaz smelt]

you could if you want to raise her

[gloomy mesa]

Okay, and for now just any random purple gear?

[keen sable]

Random gear is never good

[gloomy mesa]

Not like she's going to do any real damage at lvl 18

[keen sable]

If you're scared put hp on her

[gloomy mesa]

I'll just start a thread for enti and kuyby and show my unused gear

[keen sable]

It doesn't take long to put your best available gear versus terrible gear on her

[uneven oyster]

Is there a “best” map to farm spee trust ticket things?

[viscid swift]

your usual farming spot though if you're in a race against the clock the highest map you can do while carrying her in your boss fleet

[uneven oyster]

Cool, i should be able to get it done today carrying her in 12-4. I wasnt able to play much this last week

[jaunty vault]

12-1 should be better

[gloomy mesa]

Join me in my thread and spread your beautiful wisdom

[silk helm]

does the ECTL have info on which skills to level up first for each ship? I can't find it

[tame jungle]

irrelevant, ectl reviews ship based on their final form

[silk helm]

ahh so is there a resource for like early game? idk which skill to upgrade

[tame jungle]

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

[sweet delta]

Upgrade all skills except for Portland's, no big difference in order, ask here if you want to minmax that

[tame jungle]

as far as skills goes it really depends on the ship obviously, but i think flagship bb barrages and healing skills are the most valuable

depending on where you're at in the game, you can probably just abuse level advantage (up until W11-12 or so)

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/early_ship_recommendations there's also this to go over

[silk helm]

thanks, just started so only on w7 atm

[tame jungle]

have fun!

[silk helm]

haha i will, especially with the event coming

[gloomy mesa]

Should I max hoods skill first or enti?

[still merlin]

I think Hood

[viscid swift]

seeing as Hood is further along, Hood

[lament tree]

Wait, it's 200 gems for 10 dock slots? Idk but I thought it was 200 for 1 slot

[jaunty vault]

it is 200 gems for 10 dock slots

until you reach a certain point from whence it is 300 gems for 10

[still merlin]

the price does increase?

[viscid swift]

after 2k dock space yes

[still merlin]

but the current total ship is not even 1k...

[gloomy mesa]

Does spee need to survive the Boss fight before I get double points?

[viscid swift]

yes

[lament tree]

Wait how many ships are there

[viscid swift]

around 700 including collabs

[lament tree]

Woah

If I bought the biggest gem pack with double bonus, I'd get 500 slots

[gloomy mesa]

Well shit, no chance I can carry her

[lament tree]

I'd be at 670, and I'd never have to worry

At least for awhile

[gloomy mesa]

I'll probably buy the newbie pack when I finish w8, just for the bullins and exp books

[cobalt rapids]

what newbie pack

[topaz smelt]

i think the cmdr exp pack

thats the only one i rmbr giving bulins

[cobalt rapids]

might aswell buy it now then coz it sets the cmder lvl to 70 not gives 70 lvls worth of xp

[gloomy mesa]

5 bucks, kinda nice

[cobalt rapids]

yea its a good deal

[topaz smelt]

cruise pass is even nicer if you can spare the extra dollars

[eternal basalt]

Next 3 weeks x2 XP if under commander level 80 though

[cobalt rapids]

id buy it even only for resources to speedrun acc abit so its event farm rdy

[glacial heath]

will tomorrow maintenance also be a ui related?

[eternal basalt]

Yes

[cobalt rapids]

tomorrow we get new event and with it other stuff like new ui

[soft raft]

patchnotes are in #game-news

[lament tree]

Maintenance is usually 10 hours yeah?

[soft raft]

8-10

[cobalt rapids]

usually 8 but depends

[keen sable]

Absolute wrong move. If you're going to buy it yesterday is always better

[boreal temple]

Would a second rainbow aa gun be something helpful for w15 or not worth the circuits

[viscid swift]

helpful yes, worth it well it depends

[lament tree]

Got it, opened the rainbow crate, got gold. I want my money back for scam

[boreal temple]

Let's just say I'd have to use 6 blank prints for it am assuming it aint worth then?

[viscid swift]

like I said it depends, do you even need it for W15 in the first place

[cobalt rapids]

depends on ur prios
we also get mk7 soon and we dont know what itll use

[viscid swift]

that as well

drops June 6th

[boreal temple]

Oh damn didn't know mk7 was nearing

Guess I'd save my gearlab mats then

[boreal temple]

Tbh dunno, am just prepping for w15 clear randomly with no plan in mind

[cobalt rapids]

sounds like a plan

[forest palm]

Triple 381 is dead

[keen sable]

There's no rainbow gear in there anyway. Only gold cranes

[crystal flame]

How do I load the Azur Lane Fleet Tool with my shipgirls’ information from my account? A frick-ton of Copy-pasting or can I submit info in a faster way?

[viscid swift]

you can't, gotta do everything manually

you get used to it

[silk helm]

does the wiki have drop rates of ships from campaign? i just got a yuudachi from 6-4

[soft raft]

/droprate

[odd root]

Bridal Z23

Q: What are the drop rates for __?
A: Map drop rates are unknown and cannot be datamined, due to being server-side. The only one known is 0.75% for Akagi/Kaga (individually) on 3-4. Community data collection suggests the other gold ship drop rates are somewhat similar, however.

Q: Then where should I farm for __?
A: Farm the highest map you can for it. Higher stages give more EXP, upgrade parts, equipment, and shop currency. Community data collection suggests the drop rates are also probably higher on higher worlds.

[soft raft]

TLDR Nope, and we never will 100% know for sure

[silk helm]

oh cool, so safe to say its pretty rare then

[viscid swift]

knowing doesn't really change anything anyway

[silk helm]

true haha, but its a little more exciting to know that i got it from a .75% vs a 50%

[lament tree]

I got a rainbow crate, tech thing

[viscid swift]

yeah, T5 tech boxes only drop Gold Gear

UR gear can't drop from any tech boxes

[lament tree]

Man, I need to stop assuming

I just thought rainbow meant chance at ur

[trim bear]

when is the next banner

[fluid brook]

Tomorrow

[forest palm]

in like 20 hours

[fluid brook]

23hrs without counting maint time

[jaunty vault]

Maintenance start <t:1716274800:R> at <t:1716274800:t> and scheduled to end <t:1716303600:R> on <t:1716303600:F>

[fluid brook]

Ah right its pm

[hearty hound]

need the maintenance for the datamines

[forest palm]

CN maint starts in like 5 hours, so we'll get there

[lament tree]

What does naming the ship do?

[forest palm]

nothing in particular, it's just there for cosmetic reasons

[lament tree]

So it won't change my account name or something?

[forest palm]

it will not

[fluid brook]

It will just change the name of the ship to the name you put

[lean sable]

are the explorable ones "best" to farm in opsi or do the hidden ones?

[lament tree]

What ship tho? Like, I'm confused

[fluid brook]

The ship you selected to change name

[lament tree]

I didn't select a ship

[fluid brook]

Ah

Idk about the event so i cant tell you much

[lament tree]

Yeah Idk what it's for so I'm hesitant

[viscid swift]

it's part of the upcoming event, it's just a name, doesn't really matter

[soft raft]

flavour text

[gloomy mesa]

Os there like a penny 2, because I love her design and I'll be sad swapping her out

[viscid swift]

no

[gloomy mesa]

🥲

[eager mulch]

NJ

[strong veldt]

Is building the generic Augments worth it at all? Or should I just focus on character specific ones?

[viscid swift]

eventually yes, a buff is a buff

[night pumice]

how does opsi work? should I be starting it as soon as it unlocks? or should I wait until I have two fleets established

[eager mulch]

Most can be done with a simple mob fleet and boss fleet

[eternal basalt]

Yes, you shoud start as you reach lvl 60

[eager mulch]

eventually you’ll specialize with triple BB/CV boss fleets

[eternal basalt]

It's {{1}} in events, just like with TB (hopefully properly implemented this time)

[night pumice]

oh okay and is it fine if I'm still using the starter fleet?

[lean sable]

should I blast my cubes tomorrow for the new URs or wait 1,2 days and see if people see them as viable?

[fluid brook]

Generally Gacha Urs are good

But to be sure just do 3 pulls each day till you have info

[lean sable]

alright thanks 😄

[blazing shale]

idk why but jintsuu meta's not in the dock, does she unlock in the dossiers?

[viscid swift]

eventually yes

[hollow birch]

how come the update is tomorrow instead of Thursday as always

[silk helm]

Tin foil hat theory: cuz WuWa is releasing this week so they pushed it to be earlier

[vale spindle]

not true

[shell willow]

is bp for coin purchase enabled for pr5?

[viscid swift]

it's not a thing yet

[hollow birch]

new trendy gacha?

[viscid swift]

#off-topic

[wet prairie]

Maint is today right

[viscid swift]

in a little less than 9 hours

[hallow iron]

I just started this game, should I pull on any banner?

[keen sable]

Yes tomorrow event banner

Stick to like 5 to 10 a day to maximize rewards

[hallow iron]

Do u think I should start tomorrow instead to reroll? I don't see any rewards tho in mail so probably a pain to reroll

Maybe just progress story as far as I can today

[wet prairie]

Man missed out on apollogems

[hallow iron]

5 to 10 single pulls?

[hallow iron]

Oof

[wet prairie]

Tomorrows event is 2 cubes per pull

[viscid swift]

also might want to give that a read https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips

[wet prairie]

I would do the one daily LIGHT ship build today and then pull event tomorrow

[sinful elk]

Chat how do we get the T2 exp data pack

[keen sable]

No, rerolling isn't advised but you CAN change or play on multiple servers. Keep the best one after event

[viscid swift]

getting out the credit card, only way to get T2 XP packs is through paid packs

[sinful elk]

Oh

[sinful elk]

Not even in cruise?

[viscid swift]

free portion of the cruise pass is all T1

[wet prairie]

Paid has t2

[worldly pewter]

best way to do it is to play multiple accounts for until u roll the UR ship but it is tiresome

[hallow iron]

Oo I try my best, I m not a hardcore reroller though so probably give up if it takes too long

Btw is dupe needed in this game?

[hallow iron]

Ok thx

[viscid swift]

no, bullins are common enough to the point where they aren't worth pulling for, still useful though

[blazing shale]

Which stats does Fortune want?

[rich valve]

keep playing and you will max it out anyway

[viscid swift]

there's no wrong way to enhance META ships since th values are fixed, just go until they're maxed

[worldly pewter]

it is not a rerolling strat
since there isn't any burst gacha currency income and rather this game gives u a consistent income it is better to play through the entire event on multiple accounts and it should be around 60 rolls for 3 weeks per account which is somewhat a decent chance to get the UR

[inner idol]

Who's the ship in the baby sitting comic?

[viscid swift]

#al-general might have a better idea than we do

[modern sentinel]

Is there I way I can get ships from the events that I missed or are they completely limited?

[forest palm]

not till they rerun, or become perm

[fickle scarab]

How terrible is rodney meta?

[soft raft]

rerolling is not really a thing in this game
The game doesnt frontload you with enough resources at the very start and the tutorial is like 15 mins long

[modern sentinel]

Oh so they eventually come back? Is there any info on the wiki when they come or something like that?

[viscid swift]

no, as a rule of thumb yhough events take around 2+ years to rerun after the original run of their event

[modern sentinel]

Alright thanks

[void ivy]

Does the new stuff come out next reset

[viscid swift]

yes, maintenance is in 8 hours

[void ivy]

Standard update or big?

[viscid swift]

big, it is the CN Anni event after all

[modern sentinel]

There's another update?

I just downloaded one

[sweet delta]

The playable ship? About as terrible as the best gold mob BBs

[topaz smelt]

i wouldve t0ed her if her barrage was 100%

[blissful hamlet]

how long until datamine is up

[soft raft]

like roughly 4 hours or so

[blissful hamlet]

[hazy marten]

what does it mean by "deployed ships <=10"

[viscid swift]

exactly what it says, deploy 10 or less ships

not that getting stars matter for WAs

[hazy marten]

subs as well i guess?

im just doing it for ahievment hunting of sorts

[mint flint]

2 fleets = 6+6 = 12

[viscid swift]

if you're gonna do that you could at least do it cheaply

[hazy marten]

i had 6 and 2

its just cross fleet support

but 3 subs as well

[viscid swift]

I think you need to complete a run in order for it to register

[hazy marten]

i did it with 6 in fleet 1, 2 in fleet 2 and 3 subs, it didnt count

redoing without subs

yep, they messed me up before

[keen sable]

subs are ships too

[true kraken]

How many cube can be obtained per day?

[forest palm]

3 per day, 4 per day if there's a lite rerun for 7 days

[viscid swift]

at least 3

[true kraken]

That's all?

[forest palm]

that doesn't account for Commissions

[true kraken]

So like only 90 cubes a month and at least 4 months to gather 400cubes?

[viscid swift]

no, minimum is 168 cubes a month

that's with monthly login and weekly missions

if you're active that can easily go over 200, those who are really active should manage 250+

[true kraken]

What about returning players?

[viscid swift]

returning players get an additional almost 100 cubes in 2 weeks

[true kraken]

For real?

[viscid swift]

yes

[eager mulch]

I’m always returning to the game (everyday)

[hollow gust]

You get more for just playing the game consistently, considering how long it takes the returning to proc...

[true kraken]

And if I dont, how much is 400 cubes converted to USD?

[warm flax]

When will CN maint end

[viscid swift]

if you're asking for the data mine it's still a few hours off

[hollow gust]

Last time I checked it's like what 2-300$

[true kraken]

You know too much as a new player dont you?

[hollow gust]

It's 11k gems

[hollow gust]

No? I know basic math

[sinful elk]

Chat why i can't move my the fleets

[soft raft]

your game looks like it desynced, force close and relaunch it

[viscid swift]

desync, log back out and back in again

[sinful elk]

Okay

Btw i have a kind of big issue in w11-4, that is my main fleet stopped dying but now they target the vanguard through fire dmg, is there a way to fix it ( i let them auto )

[soft raft]

more lvls
and also give your DDs fire extingushers

[viscid swift]

throw fire extinguishers on your vanguards

[sinful elk]

I only have legit 1

And portland keep ramming suicide boats

[viscid swift]

see if you can craft any or open some tech boxes

[sinful elk]

Yeah but if i don't got the amount i needed should i do it manually until it reach low or safe threat

[viscid swift]

sure

[sinful elk]

[eager mulch]

why are we waiting for testing, URgud

[viscid swift]

yes, but how good

[eager mulch]

as good as a 0 cv 0 sub game

[viscid swift]

so at least halfway

[ionic edge]

who in pr6 do i dev first

[eager mulch]

unless you have the bps to dev 30 them the order doesn’t matter

[viscid swift]

doesn't really matter, I doubt you have many BPs for any of them

[ionic edge]

you are correct i don't 💀 ive not finished maxing pr 5, i guess i'll just go down the line

[blissful hamlet]

is the afk mode not on next maint?

[viscid swift]

nope

[blissful hamlet]

when is it

[soft raft]

was that even a thing that was announced?
I dont recall any mention of it at all

[inner delta]

yes, screensaver

[soft raft]

Ah

[atomic abyss]

There was the screensaver thing

[blissful hamlet]

so when is it?

[atomic abyss]

They never gave a date

If it's not in today's patch
Then it's another day's

[blissful hamlet]

[soft raft]

I know they did a slight roadmap of the next 3 weeks but afaik I didnt see screensaver mentioned when I ran it thru google translate

[frank pulsar]

pins mentions it

[blissful hamlet]

Doesn't mention when

[ripe urchin]

the calm before progressing to W10

[south sequoia]

I didn't check, is the new battle UI also being implemented this patch?

[viscid swift]

these were all the UI updates mentioned in JP

[plain saffron]

it should be this

[soft raft]

Ah

[blissful hamlet]

the afk mode is on main screen not during sortie?

why would someone spend more than 1 minute doing nothing on main screen lol

[stark quiver]

whats the picture book

[viscid swift]

I have no idea tbh

[stark quiver]

im guessing its the manga but idk

[sleek spade]

does binding Yostar account just involve entering an email and a code?

[viscid swift]

pretty much

[sleek spade]

I didn't remember making a Yostar acc and I have 2 emails now idk which one lmao

[elfin hollow]

how many hours from now on do we get the datamine

[viscid swift]

2-3 probably

[elfin hollow]

great, i'll be on my break at work by then

[blissful hamlet]

[sleek spade]

how long will Maint be?

[soft raft]

at least 8 hours

[sleek spade]

Im hoping it's not 10hrs

[stone sluice]

Ready for 12

[graceful meteor]

2 days

[novel condor]

Micromedley event flashbacks

[blissful hamlet]

maint will end when the event ends

[eternal moth]

From patch notes eariler today: Headquarters will carry out maintenance on 5/21, 12:00 A.M. (UTC-7) for approximately 8 hours.

[sacred silo]

Can I ask for fleet building help here

[eternal moth]

Sure. What are your current fleets?

[novel condor]

Sure just post your docks in a thread

[eternal moth]

And what content are you looking for help on

[sacred silo]

I'm pretty new I started a couple weeks ago and I'm looking for help on world 8 bc I can't clear it fast enough for S rank 😭

[viscid swift]

More levels, enhance your gear, etc

[novel condor]

Also proper fleets

[sacred silo]

Ships :)

[elfin hollow]

Is Nagato special barrage good/ Is she good in general

[eager mulch]

wide but low proc chance

Nagato is not good in general

[elfin hollow]

why? ;-;

[eager mulch]

low damage

[elfin hollow]

alr

[atomic abyss]

Year 0 kit basically
Great buffs little damage

[stark quiver]

whens update

[sleek spade]

soontm

4hrs from now

[stark quiver]

wait its on a tuesday for pst??

[eternal moth]

📣 ⁉️

[hard mesa]

[kindred quarry]

What pr ship should i focus getting?

[soft raft]

FdG -> All of PR4 -> At least Plymouth from PR5 -> Everyone else in terms of priority

[kindred quarry]

Ok thx

[knotty dome]

Will I be able to rename my cruise ship if I like a different name later?

[echo vector]

Is there any significant of naming the holiday cruise ? I named it Love Boat

[echo vector]

I think it's imposible to rename it

[eternal moth]

Not that I'm aware of

[knotty dome]

oh that's too bad

[atomic abyss]

I thought it's possible

[echo vector]

Cheshire is AA CA, worth some consideration especially with higher difficult map need tons of tanking and AA. Hakuryuu at max limit break is on par with shinano. Hindenburg got the tankiness and Dmg like Aegir. Seatle is also good at map 15.

[knotty dome]

I did find a name I was pretty happy with, turns out that you can rename it too so that's nice

[echo vector]

Oooh that's nice

So what do you name it ?

[sullen creek]

Hindenburg definitely does not have the tankiness like Agir

[atomic abyss]

^

[echo vector]

True

[atomic abyss]

No where close

[viscid swift]

Hindenburg and Agir do 2 different things

[atomic abyss]

FdG -> All of PR4 -> At least Plymouth from PR5 -> Everyone else in terms of priority

Elaborating on this
For PR4
Anchorage -> Agir -> AvP (if no Implacable) -> Hakuryuu -> Marco/AvP (if have Impla)

[echo vector]

Aren't they doing pretty similar thing ?

[atomic abyss]

No

[viscid swift]

Agir is one of the best tanks with decent damage and Hindenburg is one of the highest damage vanguard in the game who's not completely made of paper

[echo vector]

I need enlightment

[atomic abyss]

Agir is god tier tank
Hinden is god tier dps

[echo vector]

Oooh i see. Thanks for the enlightment

[verbal mulch]

CruisyMcCruiseface

[forest palm]

whatever you want to

[atomic abyss]

[forest palm]

it's literally cosmetic, and has little baring

[echo vector]

Lololol

Yea just checking

[plain saffron]

Costa Concordia

[sweet delta]

pound al general

[true kraken]

Since when u in here

[atomic abyss]

Since I started warning people for #off-topic like you

[eternal moth]

Datamine doko?

[vale spindle]

Whenever the gods bless me specifically

[eager mulch]

if I bless you is that enough?

[smoky palm]

Would y'all say buying this and grabbing Odin would be worth to quickly and more easily boost my Iron Blood Tech points?
Rn I'm at 400 tech points for IB and atm I don't really wanna grind up Elite Ships that I wont use much just for points..

Like here are my current IB ships and I know I can get a good bit of points from working on Bismark, Tirpitz, Prinz Eugen, Friedrich Carl and ofc Roon if I build her.. but I just wonder if buying the Series 3 voucher for Odin would be worth the boost..

[eager mulch]

spending real money for something easily obtainable is not it imo

[smoky palm]

like iron blood is def my weakest as far as tech points go..

[viscid swift]

also if you hate MLBing ships just for tech then uh good luck with grinding tech points for PR as a whole....

[smoky palm]

only started in late Jan tho..

[viscid swift]

because that is what you're gonna have to do if you want to get tech points in a reasonable amount of time

[eager mulch]

it’s not like getting Odin is gonna mystically change things for you

[viscid swift]

worth is subjective but I can think of many things I'd rather spend 10/16 bucks on over something that can easily be done for free

not to mention you're going to need ships to grind out that XP anyway

[smoky palm]

I mean in total Odin gives 216 tech points in total tho which would get me to the research threshold for other IB ships and then I can start rolling through points getting other ships like FDG, etc..

just thought buying it would give me a good kick start for my iron blood points

[eager mulch]

but like, shit isn’t gonna change things instantly

[plain saffron]

If you have spare money sure, i prefer spending it on gems though

[wind hazel]

you're pretty much buying early access

[atomic abyss]

Doesn't one of those packs give you 343 BPs

So in theory you could get D30 Odin one she hits 70

[plain saffron]

It gives you dev30 yes

[viscid swift]

even if you get Odin right now you still want to level up to more IB main fleets to grind XP for FDG with her

grinding with just Odin will take an eternity

[plain saffron]

It's a whale pack, for whale, if you're whale then just buy it

[night pumice]

how can I get more oil outside of canteen and commission

[eager mulch]

weekly pack/missions

[smoky palm]

I mean im good on gems for now.. my dorm has maxed out space and the 2nd floor, my tactical class has all slots unlocked and I still have a spare ring lying in my depot

[sweet delta]

It's a whale pack, for whale, if you're whale then just buy it

[plain saffron]

Thank you for funding the servers

[smoky palm]

I was just thinking of Odin as a potential kickstart for me to make getting even more IB tech points easier

[eager mulch]

just be like me and not spend money because I have no more money

[viscid swift]

you're gonna be grinding W12 and events, it's not difficult

[plain saffron]

It prob make things slightly easier

You just skipping times with that packs

[eager mulch]

it barely saves you anything in the long run tho

and AL is a marathon

[zinc prairie]

you have more dock space than me TvT i only have 170

[plain saffron]

I doubt anyone that spent that much money already care about that

[eager mulch]

tbh PR pack is one of my biggest regrets

[blissful hamlet]

is datamine up now?

[inner delta]

[eager mulch]

alongside +13 FdG guns

[smoky palm]

I mean I've fully cleared world 13, im commander level 100 and these are my top ships by level so far.. no sure if my progression is faster or slower than your avg player.. only started at the end of Jan tho

[plain saffron]

Cn predownload not up yet. Kinda late this time

[forest palm]

looks like you progressed too fast, and now you're walled

[blissful hamlet]

[viscid swift]

what turtle means everything in AL is a slow burn, things take months and years not days or weeks in the grand scheme of things

[eager mulch]

from the looks of it he’s whaled plenty already so it’s up to him if he wants to spend more money but I personally can’t wouldn’t

[frank kernel]

$16 to receive a fully built and FS Odin doesn't sound terrible tbh, but not something I'd do more than once. Just to see how it feels.

[smoky palm]

Funny part is I got bunker hill in my first day of doing 13-4.. like less than 20 sorties for sure.. heard that getting her was hell for some?..

[viscid swift]

yes. even if someone has the means I wouldn't reccomend spending money for no good reason

[smoky palm]

Havent even attempted world 14 yet tho

[forest palm]

I got Bunker literally on my 2nd lethal clear of 13-4, it's RNG...

nice to know whaling only gives you more issues than it does solve though

[plain saffron]

It only does if you don't have the knowledge

[eager mulch]

whaling left me with $0.47

[forest palm]

this is why I spend for the booba

[plain saffron]

You should whale everything on oils so you can rush w15

[grizzled creek]

Is the SR akagi good ? Got them in story

[eager mulch]

no

[grizzled creek]

Rip

[eager mulch]

expensive for low performance

[frank kernel]

You also still need Kaga don't you

[zinc prairie]

(random question) u guys spend money on gems?

[grizzled creek]

Yea maybe later I'll get someone helpful ?

[plain saffron]

Yes

[eager mulch]

used to

[viscid swift]

I'm F2P still

[grizzled creek]

Unless I need 400 cubes to pull

[plain saffron]

Need the dock spaces for collection

[eager mulch]

I’m F2P since I can no longer sustain whaling

[forest palm]

I spend money on gems to get outfits, I use F2P gems for dock space, it's kind of plain, and simple

[plain saffron]

And Saratoga's skins

[zinc prairie]

what to prio with gems?

[frank kernel]

I buy the cruise pass and the monthly license. Occasionally the 2x gem packs. Rarely the lucky boxes because for me they are unlucky boxes.

[viscid swift]

3rd dorm slot, 2nd floor, dock space a lot of it

[exotic wren]

The only ones somewhat useful around those maps are Hiryuu, Souryuu and Nelson

[zinc prairie]

aight

[grizzled creek]

I c

[exotic wren]

The first 2 are only usable if and only if you don't have better options for a boss fleet

[grizzled creek]

I did get Nelson but unfortunately I can't afford the retrofit yet

Still working on unicorns :/

[tidal meteor]

All in due time

[zinc prairie]

we only get gems from maintenance issue (compensations, and the red envelope thingy) TvT

[plain saffron]

mandatory update, anniversary, CNY, whenever devs feel like

[frank kernel]

I don't think there's anything wrong with spending responsibly on a hobby.

[eternal moth]

Again, this game is a marathon, not a sprint. Don't worry about finishing everything right away.

[grizzled creek]

The summon coming later today is the anniversary one ? Or is it a bait one

[smoky palm]

I mean I've only spent like $114 in total on the game. I bought the lvl 70 commander pack, 1 lucky bag, and the top 2 gem pack bundles.

Not the type to casually drop large amounts often and I never buy in game top-ups unless theres the first time bonuses. Usually im more of a BP / Monthly pass type gamer..

[zinc prairie]

ye : D, i played a year now and still doesnt have an tenrai xD

[atomic abyss]

CN anniversary and there's a bait one

[eternal moth]

Did you read the patch notes?

[atomic abyss]

There's 2 banners

[smoky palm]

and I dont really play many other gachas either

[exotic wren]

The wishing well is a bait yes, The UR banner is a must pull regardless of your cube count heck I'm ballin with 60 cubes

[grizzled creek]

I'm too new to know what it means so only a little

[grizzled creek]

Ok so the girl who looks like nier is who I'm going for

[atomic abyss]

Alsace is the UR so

[grizzled creek]

Ok

[eternal moth]

"The girl that looks like Nier"? You've never played Nier have you?

[grizzled creek]

No

[dry zenith]

lol

[eternal moth]

Nier isn't a person

[inner delta]

[grizzled creek]

Oh

I assume URs are usually powerful , but I wonder, are they mostly for collecting? Cause it seems like the Bluins r super scarce for those

[eternal moth]

No, they're generally the best units in the game

[grizzled creek]

Even at base level u think?

[dry zenith]

UR bullins come pretty frequently

[grizzled creek]

Oh

[dry zenith]

You get free ones constantly

[atomic abyss]

A UR that isn't MLB is shit

[grizzled creek]

How do I get the Bluins for those

[dry zenith]

well, they are all free, but gimmes in events lol

[viscid swift]

You get enough ur bullins if you play the game

[eager mulch]

Any ship that isn’t MLB is shit

[eternal moth]

1 from event, one from cruise pass, 1.5 from points per month. Another from the SPecialized Bulin catchup

[viscid swift]

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

[zinc prairie]

Help Make a w14 fleet TvT

[grizzled creek]

Dang so I need to spend money or find a way to farm the uh shop currency

[eternal moth]

Playing the game, there's no way to spend money to get more

[stark quiver]

what time in pst are the servers expected to be up at

[dry zenith]

8am most likely

[eternal moth]

8

[stark quiver]

bruh

[eternal moth]

Unless you mean CN server, 8AM what they've said

[sweet delta]

predl up

[wind hazel]

datamine where

[viscid swift]

Soon tm

[south sequoia]

Ping me for pinning pls

[tidal meteor]

Soon™️

Mog MGM+2

[eternal moth]

Is that confirmed or cope?

[dusk maple]

my game keeps getting bricked, anyone else having problems?

[tidal meteor]

Cope

Why would I put if it's confirmed lmao

[plain saffron]

predl up

[tidal meteor]

unless I'm a Capitani Romani fan I suppose

[plain saffron]

fine then i'm slow, no datamine

[eager mulch]

I’ll give you one rushia for datamine please

[plain saffron]

deal

[eager mulch]

[sweet delta]

a siren boss

[topaz smelt]

is your repo updated?

[steady beacon]

Wow, we actually get to fight Death 👀

[south sequoia]

Is that her default expression?

[sweet delta]

do you manual run and push your json?

[south sequoia]

Oh a pained expression

[topaz smelt]

lol holy mgm4

[eager mulch]

wtf mgm+3

[south sequoia]

Lmao mogador is mgm+3 dd?

... wait

[eager mulch]

Alsace

[south sequoia]

Whos the one with 4 funs

ALSACE?

[whole crypt]

excuse me what the fuck

[south sequoia]

I could see it from mogador but not alsace

[atomic abyss]

What the fuck

Did they separate the quad 380s

So it became twin 380 now

[topaz smelt]

mgm 4 + preload + 2 reload storage

[atomic abyss]

[viscid swift]

Are you shitting me

[atomic abyss]

Lord almighty that's beyond my wildest dreams

[topaz smelt]

oh wait thats just mgm +1, fucking mtl

[atomic abyss]

RICEEEEE

[south sequoia]

RICE

[atomic abyss]

You're being fried tonight

[topaz smelt]

wait does she have base mgm2?

[viscid swift]

Burn Riceist at the stake

[whole crypt]

[hard mesa]

[eager mulch]

mgm +2

[topaz smelt]

ye i see mgm+2 so wheres the 3rd

[whole crypt]

flands was already 3mount preload right?

[topaz smelt]

ye

[south sequoia]

Ye

[viscid swift]

Yes

[south sequoia]

The only preload bb with mgm+2

[atomic abyss]

3 gun mount + preload yeah

[soft raft]

[atomic abyss]

I'd at the very least assume Alsace to be the same but

[vale spindle]

hey guys the datamine is experiencing some minor technical difficulties but as always should be up and ready before en server goes to maint unless something really really really really really goes wrong

[south sequoia]

If she actually turns out to be mgm+3 with preload theres no way she has no drawback like UVH

[atomic abyss]

So if Sam's or Nagami's computer breaks again

Gotcha

[topaz smelt]

all i read was barrage and support buffs

[vale spindle]

more accurately its nagami's website(s)

[jaunty vault]

whats cooking

[eager mulch]

nagami isn’t upholding his end of the deal

[novel condor]

So anything good from the data mine?

[topaz smelt]

and something with 2ndaries that i cant translate from mtl

[south sequoia]

Nagamis website is probably slowing down a bit since he also is mining for the story

[atomic abyss]

The only thing cooking is rice

[novel condor]

U

[atomic abyss]

Literally and figuratively

[vale spindle]

no the story is done at the very end

[viscid swift]

Just look back a bit

[topaz smelt]

cant wait for ppl to fail w15 with this

[novel condor]

No mgm+3?

[eager mulch]

there’s no ship in the game with mgm+1 as base right?

[vale spindle]

its just the game data formatting changed so we are attempting to adapt but as always something goes wrong during production that wasn't caught during testing

[atomic abyss]

MGM+3 would have been wack but no

And I don't think MGM+3 would be that good anyways

Cos of the darn auto AI

[rapid grail]

good morning is theer datamine link up

[topaz smelt]

an mgm is as good as a full barrage

[atomic abyss]

I mean assuming it hits

[viscid swift]

Not done yet

[novel condor]

[topaz smelt]

usually about the same hit rate as barrages

[atomic abyss]

But well

[viscid swift]

Give it another hour or so at least

[topaz smelt]

and implac exists

[atomic abyss]

What I think would be better, is if she had higher efficiencies

[hard mesa]

what about gun eff?

[eager mulch]

145%

[topaz smelt]

145

[atomic abyss]

[novel condor]

That good?

[south sequoia]

What is her fp stat?

[jaunty vault]

always find it funny when people call riceist rice and he doesn't give a shit

[topaz smelt]

looks like she gets 15% fp as well

[atomic abyss]

Standard gacha UR MGM efficiency then

[topaz smelt]

455/481 oathed

[south sequoia]

Huh, this is weird, other people are claiming that she actually does have mgm+3

[novel condor]

Shame

[jaunty vault]

standard gacha UR is shimakaze

[topaz smelt]

i think its lb0 2mgm + 2mlb

[eager mulch]

she’s tied for the lowest gacha UR BB eff

[atomic abyss]

I mean doesn't FdG have the highest for URs at 160%?

[hard mesa]

standar is 155

[novel condor]

She has 160 wait wat

[jaunty vault]

probably peeked in gph and did not bother to come back to check if right or wrong

[south sequoia]

Nope

[topaz smelt]

isnt theres some 2mgm shitters at 180

[atomic abyss]

Doesn't Soyuz have 145% herself

[hard mesa]

150

[atomic abyss]

JB is 160%

[sinful elk]

Juneau is a worse san diego but shes cheap right

[viscid swift]

Richelieu yeah

[atomic abyss]

Georgia is 165%

[south sequoia]

Latias showed me this

[atomic abyss]

It's Latias

[south sequoia]

Im not sure how quite reliable tthey are, we're all jist waiting

[viscid swift]

Oh wait it was Ise and Hyuuga wasn't it post retro

[soft raft]

Hm same MGM efficiency as Vanguard

And 5% better than Kear

[south sequoia]

Woah fuck

[atomic abyss]

Yep

[novel condor]

180% when

[eager mulch]

bisz, musashi, uvh at 155%, NJ, soyuz at 150%, vang and Alsace at 145%

[hard mesa]

she has preload?

[atomic abyss]

The only french BB with no preload is gascan

Wait

[atomic abyss]

...2+2?

Not a gascan situation surely?

[topaz smelt]

thats what im reading

[eternal moth]

Make up your damn minds lol

[topaz smelt]

2 + 1 + 0 + 1 per lb

[eager mulch]

we are so back

[dry zenith]

Wow

[atomic abyss]

I think Yuki will rage if it's a gascogne situation

[hard mesa]

preload on lb1?

[dry zenith]

Is she just gonna be pure damage then?

[atomic abyss]

Well he'll also rage at us for this convo

Well hard to say, we haven't looked at the skills yet have we

[silk glen]

CN Datamine says she has 4 MGM + Preload

[wind hazel]

[topaz smelt]

shes got some +12% damage debuff, idk if its perma

[viscid swift]

how broken is Alsace

[atomic abyss]

I'm 99% sure this is a gascogne situation

[novel condor]

Manjuu: Yes

[topaz smelt]

potentially enough to kick every tex down

[eternal moth]

What are the numbers in parenthesis?

[south sequoia]

TA
Tier Alsace

[dry zenith]

Oath

[topaz smelt]

if her debuff is perma she might just solo bosses herself

[south sequoia]

Woah, her reload is pretty high too

187 rld

Well, 177

Thats enough to offset the slight delay for when she launches off preload

[wind hazel]

surely has some stupid gimmick like Musashi

[fair phoenix]

10secs if I'm reading it right

[viscid swift]

I mean

[whole crypt]

wait does she start mgm2, I only see +2

[atomic abyss]

"Use a french gun" maybe?

Which ... Isn't that bad of a gimmick honestly...?

[south sequoia]

What the fuck she even has a heal

[calm rose]

french he gun?

[south sequoia]

Debuffs, heals, self buff

[atomic abyss]

French AP is easy at least

[faint cloud]

something wrong

[atomic abyss]

So like og gascogne?

[south sequoia]

Not her own heal, but heals others

[atomic abyss]

Nani tf

NorCal back to T5 already

[fervent niche]

we having update sooner? or they give out maintenance thingy a day before now

[south sequoia]

Atleast thats what I interpret from the translation cheeky sent

[novel condor]

where was she b4

[atomic abyss]

Inb4 she too uses a fuze AA

[jaunty vault]

stop losing your shit over MTL

[wind hazel]

Perseus finally no longer tier ex

[soft raft]

[atomic abyss]

Update is at today's reset

[silk glen]

Mogador and the SSRs

[fervent niche]

not Wednesday?

[viscid swift]

any info on what tech they are?

[south sequoia]

Oh thats boring mogador only got mgm+1

[atomic abyss]

Nope, Tuesday

[fervent niche]

cool

[whole crypt]

so 3mounts not 4

[soft raft]

So much for that one guys theory lol

[atomic abyss]

Lmao what did he say again

[eager mulch]

that mogador would get mgm+1

[jaunty vault]

he literally said shes gonna get mgm+1

[zinc prairie]

should i use the flare on boss fight only?

[eager mulch]

never use the flare

[jaunty vault]

dont use flares

[soft raft]

Oh right
Thought he said MGM+2

[novel condor]

What does the flares even do, I just use the lighthouse

[eager mulch]

makes your fleet worse

[south sequoia]

Remind me again, why are flares bad? I remember back then people recommending me to use it and lighthouse for boss spawn

[atomic abyss]

Debuffs you and the enemy basically...?

[eager mulch]

smth smth fucks targeting

[novel condor]

Ah fair

[viscid swift]

they fuck with targetting for your BBs among other things

[whole crypt]

so alsace is mgm3 +pre +can store up to 2 loads

[south sequoia]

... ah

[zinc prairie]

ah oki

[south sequoia]

No wonder my w14 was hard.

[atomic abyss]

Store up to 2 loads is very suspicious though

[dry zenith]

Same lmao

[atomic abyss]

The only BB with 2 salvos stored is gascogne

[whole crypt]

doesn't do squat on auto

[viscid swift]

it does, and if it's true could be very inetersting

[zinc prairie]

then what do you guys recommend to do?

[blissful hamlet]

where is datamine

[eager mulch]

lighthouse only

[topaz smelt]

shes like gas where she shoots twice with mgm+1

[zinc prairie]

on boss?

[rapid grail]

huh, idk much about flares in w14

[blissful hamlet]

is datamine up

[whole crypt]

skills no mention of separate loading and gas is mgm1

[south sequoia]

Sam and co are working on it just be patient

[blissful hamlet]

[atomic abyss]

Yeah gas is MGM+1

Well the tldr is

[soft raft]

This is like the fourth time you've asked about it, just wait man

[atomic abyss]

Alsace is going to be very very very interesting

[eager mulch]

gas is mgm+1 but shoots both independently

[neon finch]

is Alsase flag or non-flag again?

[atomic abyss]

[blissful hamlet]

someone told me alsace is mega op is it true

[eager mulch]

we literally don’t fucking know

[south sequoia]

Unknown

[rapid grail]

is adalbert skin banned from being posted in server?

[viscid swift]

we don't know

[atomic abyss]

Maybe

[south sequoia]

Barrage patterns and skills are unknown for now

[viscid swift]

we though she had 4 main gun mounts at one point, it's just 3 as it turns out

[south sequoia]

Barrage patterns especially don't come with when datamine is released, you have to wait for others to create a recreation to simulate how it works or we wait for cn to finish maintenance and make videos

[blissful hamlet]

4 mgm

[atomic abyss]

Check #rules next time

[blissful hamlet]

does alsace has preload

[atomic abyss]

Yes

[rapid grail]

just asking in advance

[eternal moth]

I think they mean the new Adalbert skin, which they couldn't show on stream

[soft raft]

Can't believe it
It's so Joever

[whole crypt]

go check gascan's devs, the 2 mounts are skill based

[blissful hamlet]

alsace op

[atomic abyss]

If we haven't said the skin is banned

It's not banned

[dry zenith]

Anson base art lmao

[atomic abyss]

As far as I'm aware, none of the skins this patch are being banned

[eternal moth]

I don't think anyone even knows what it looks like yet

[south sequoia]

Nope, no nono loli skins so no ban

[atomic abyss]

None of the wow skins are lolis

Also, maybe this wasn't the best channel for those kinda questions

Oh well

[south sequoia]

Does someone have a rough translation for mogadors kit l?

[crude kelp]

Now we know.

[eager mulch]

mods can we kill this guy?

[atomic abyss]

The second skill

[viscid swift]

doesn't seem too noteworthy on first glance

[atomic abyss]

That 3rd skill makes it looks like she's built for w14

[soft raft]

[eager mulch]

oh wtf anti sub skill

[blissful hamlet]

I can't read the translation

[atomic abyss]

The first skill mentions something about barrage count being halved...?

[jaunty vault]

[plain saffron]

so the new torp is really 2 waves

[hard mesa]

conclusion for alsace main gun?

[dry zenith]

Mogador has novels for skills

[plain saffron]

with 0.2s(need to reconfirm) delay

[whole crypt]

looking at the cn skill text looks like alsace is flandre with frills, not gascan

[jaunty vault]

people cannot wait

[south sequoia]

Just wait

[wind hazel]

i can 🙂

[atomic abyss]

But at the same time
