[atomic abyss]

slow debuffs last like, 4-5s tops

[sweet delta]

Alsace first and then Shinano only if you have enough for max

[sharp socket]

how long does helena debuff last

[vale spindle]

believe its 6 seconds

[atomic abyss]

10s actually

[true kraken]

I would go UvH and Alsace

[vale spindle]

wao better than i thought

[sharp socket]

oh 10s isnt that bad

[atomic abyss]

but you're missing the key thing

[zinc prairie]

why Alsace not nano?

[sweet delta]

Yes Helena is better than you thought

[eager mulch]

helena good

[sharp socket]

still tighter than any gacha timing than ive played but its alright i guess, so i assume this timing adjustment is for auto’s use

[zinc turret]

adjusting the timing to make ur ship to shoot after helena not before helena cast the debuff

[vale spindle]

yes

[atomic abyss]

ok let's see an example
assuming helena always procs (lol)

20s, 40s, 60s, 80s, 100s, 120s

my BB sends their salvos at say every 22s
22s, 44s, 66s, 88s, 110s (no debuff), 132s (no debuff)

[sharp socket]

because if its manual ill just press button when debuff applies

[eager mulch]

if you want to try seeing the effects of timing for yourself then try to make an aimed TB CV fleet without pre-calcing timings and see how much damage they do

[atomic abyss]

so if the timings were closer (say by changing a gun)

[sharp socket]

this sounds complicated but interesting tell me more

[atomic abyss]

then it could be like
20.5s, 41s, 61.5s, 82s, 102.5, 123s

[true kraken]

what if you lazy and just want auto

[atomic abyss]

and suddenly everything is affected

for slowers, the debuff window is less than 5s

so you need to be WAY closer

[zinc turret]

[atomic abyss]

the recommendation is usually no more than +-0.3s

[eager mulch]

for example, if you don’t adjust your CV timings to a stop/slow then this happens

[strong tartan]

Essex pro dodge op

[atomic abyss]

i feel like i recognise this gif...

[stark quiver]

i see it everyday dont worry

[atomic abyss]

wait fuck did the original clip come from me LOL

[sharp socket]

so this timing thing would only be needed on something exceptionally hard and something youd do often

[zinc turret]

somehow i like BB now cuz its can protect my main fleet instead using full carrier

[eager mulch]

kinda sorta

[atomic abyss]

aka, meta showdowns

since you need to repeat them daily

[sacred silo]

Does avi matter on unicorn? Don't know if I should put steam catapult or toolkit

[sharp socket]

cant u just run it once then auto sweep and wait 15mins

[atomic abyss]

catapult
her heals don't scale off her own HP

[strong tartan]

definitely not toolkit

[topaz smelt]

ik you were still around back then

[atomic abyss]

that's only for dossier lol

[sharp socket]

or like do it multiple times

[atomic abyss]

so why would you want to do it like 5 times when you can do it in 2 or even 1

[sharp socket]

i see

[eager mulch]

this meta showdown really wants you to mess with your timings actually

[atomic abyss]

and then we have exceptions like this

[eager mulch]

I wouldn’t know I ignore meta showdown

[sharp socket]

speaking of meta showdown i dont think ive touched that since i unlocked opsi like 3 months ago

[wind anvil]

The dd torp in event, is it worth buying?

[fleet cove]

are any of the META ships essential to have?

[atomic abyss]

nope

[strong tartan]

nop

[atomic abyss]

nice to have yes

[novel condor]

Nope

[strong tartan]

good on manual

[fleet cove]

aright good because I barely do op siren

[topaz smelt]

most of them give good tech

[wind anvil]

Ok thx

[atomic abyss]

you should do opsiren though
even if you skip the metas

[dull saddle]

What Aug is good for subs?

[inland shoal]

Roughly half of them give good tech

[topaz smelt]

opsi is where most of your gear comes from

[atomic abyss]

a lot of the best gear comes from op siren - not the campaign maps

[zinc turret]

[inland shoal]

Dagger, kunai is 🚮

[dull saddle]

Ty, Also is Albacore's special Aug good?

[fleet cove]

yeah true i should start doing op siren more but good to know that Meta ships are not that essential also how does the tech work that they give is it just used for pr/dr or does it give some other buffs

[glacial solstice]

Whats the new link for equipments infographs?

[true kraken]

sometime Opsi takes too much time, I rather do research

[topaz smelt]

its just perma stats for raising ships

[atomic abyss]

think of fleet tech as milestone rewards

[remote yarrow]

Like sam's gear guide? #bot-spam /equip

[sharp socket]

does fleet power do anything

[vale spindle]

nope

[atomic abyss]

no, pure flexing

[stark quiver]

flexing, which is cool

[topaz smelt]

i wish i can flex my wallet too

[true kraken]

it's just a number

[stark quiver]

same cant flex something that doesnt exist

[fleet cove]

also should I focus on Azuma or Ägir I got azuma already at dev 21 and ägir 4

[glacial solstice]

Whats the current best fleets for opsi?

[true kraken]

Agir

[atomic abyss]

it depends on what you have

[little chasm]

is bearn meta good?

[true kraken]

most are rainbow

[inland shoal]

Just coin Azuma, focus your research on Ägir

[fleet cove]

aright

[stark quiver]

did colorado get retro

[true kraken]

yes

[plain saffron]

Hi

[fleet cove]

how important is fate sim is it better to focus dev 30ing good ships rather than fate siming one

[topaz smelt]

fs makes them better

[crimson glacier]

it depends on the ship

[true kraken]

depend, you might want fs5 FdG

[crimson glacier]

some dont really care and some need it desperately

[topaz smelt]

ill take +15 luck anyday

[fleet cove]

only Dr I have dev30 is FDG so is it better to coin her fate first and after that azuma

[dull saddle]

Mk20 Bidder Torp + Improved Snorkel + Pressure Resistant Hull for Subs?

If im broke af can I replace Bidder with Gold G7e for now?

[remote yarrow]

Probably should do PR4 as a whole after FdG since PRs can be coined

You can do Azuma after you are done with Anchor and AvP

Since MP doesn't really matter that much compared to them sadly

[fleet cove]

I've been focusing my research to Anchorage past 2.5 weeks I got her at dev 22 now

[dull saddle]

Also is Brest Good?

[remote yarrow]

Gud

[dull saddle]

What about the G7e?

[remote yarrow]

Tho since she's coinable idk if using her catchup for Dev levels is recommended anymore

[stark quiver]

Also where can I get Colorado

[remote yarrow]

Guild Shop iirc

[jaunty vault]

yes

[dull saddle]

Ty

[stark quiver]

Oh yea thanks

[jaunty vault]

[glacial solstice]

Heres my dock atm
Any good comps for opsi fleets rn?

https://ibb.co/album/nBD81b

[fleet cove]

I got just 2 UR bulins and I've been thinking LBing shimakaze to max or should I wait to see how Mogador is buffed?

[remote yarrow]

I'm afraid to click that link never heard of it before

[remote yarrow]

If you already started Limit Breaking an UR finish it first, there's no point on having 2 partially MLBd URs at the same time

[sweet delta]

How about neither? What other URs do you have

[remote yarrow]

Well also true, Main ships have better prio than vanguards

[plain saffron]

Someone ping me when patch drop in en

[remote yarrow]

@plain saffron

[dull saddle]

What PR/DR should I do next?, I have Roon, Monarch, FDG, Agir, Anchorage, AvP, Hakuryuu, Plymouth, Harbin, doing Brest rn, Kearsarge, and Hindenburg
I should do a PR3 to finish the PR3 Missions right?

I need someone who is really good to use

[remote yarrow]

But are they done? Like Dev30 and Fs5 if possible?

Or do you just have them

[fleet cove]

Shimakaze is lb 2 and mogador is lb 0

[remote yarrow]

Uuuh you don't really have any options other than finishing Shima tbh, unless you wanna wait for Vanguard which is a better option

[sweet delta]

Probably save them until you have 4 UR bulins, and then either Vanguard or Mogador at that time

[novel condor]

Does D3 drop gear skins or only from boxes?

[steady beacon]

D3 does not drop gear skins, unfortunately
Usually stages dropping gear skins are collab or muse only

[dull saddle]

Everyone is Dev30 and Fs5(if available) except Plymouth(Dev28), Kearsarge(Dev10 iirc) and Hindenburg(Dev11)

[novel condor]

aight ty pil

[remote yarrow]

I would go get a PR3 just for the sake of the mission and then come back to finish Ply and Brest then PR6

Shouldn't take that long ig

[dull saddle]

I am almost done with Brest's Development(Doing CDC II), so should I finish it or do PR3 then come back?

[plain saffron]

there's no patch. time to block

[remote yarrow]

[remote yarrow]

I mean, you can get a PR3 at the same time you are doing Research for both Ply and Brest

[dull saddle]

Didn't Finish Making Brest

[remote yarrow]

Oh then finish getting her first lol

[normal sun]

hi whats the best way to level a ship before adding them to my main fleet

[graceful meteor]

book them to 70 for mlb at least

[normal sun]

huh

[graceful meteor]

I meant use exp book on them

[dull saddle]

Dorm 5th Slot or Extra Dock Space?(got around 350 Dock Space)

[wraith monolith]

Dorm, book, commission, straight up 12-4 🗣️

[strong tartan]

4 dorm slots is fine enough if you're F2P

[graceful meteor]

Dock
4 dorm is enough

[remote yarrow]

How much free space you got? I think having like 30~40 at all times is a comfy number

[strong tartan]

do you have the second floor? If no I'll probably get that

[terse grail]

Am I losing a lot of event points in the long run if I farm D2 instead of D3? I prefer the D2 drop item but the drop rate seems to be quite abysmal

[remote yarrow]

What drop item? French gun?

If that's what you are getting is probably not worth over D3

[steady beacon]

You are losing exactly 30 pts per run

[strong tartan]

it's the single ver of the 138

[terse grail]

Hmmm... I guess that's quite a bit over the rest of the event :\

I guess I'll give up on the gun

[atomic abyss]

the DD gun on d2 isn't worth it anymore

it was worth like 5 years ago, but not anymore

[terse grail]

But the D3 item is even more meh

[sweet delta]

only 10 minutes

[strong tartan]

I'd rather have a barracuda than an outclassed single DD gun

[topaz smelt]

if you need gear go do opsi

[atomic abyss]

aren't barracudas used for spearfish anyways

[strong tartan]

that gun is pretty old

[terse grail]

I have way more vanguards in need of guns than I have CVs that need planes

[dull saddle]

45

[hallow iron]

How much dock space do u have smoothie?

[strong tartan]

yep pretty much and even then they're still pretty solid

[remote yarrow]

That's the shortest 10 minutes of my life

[remote yarrow]

400, 47 free space

[hard mesa]

Opsi+research for gears

[atomic abyss]

then use the purple twin 120
why would you compromise your event drops for that...

single 138 does NOT make a good secondary gun anyways

unless your name is london kai i guess

[strong tartan]

eh i just shoved mine on Brest

[jaunty vault]

huh why does it work on london

[steady beacon]

It's not awful on Brest tbh

[topaz smelt]

its nice in w14 but thats about it

[terse grail]

It's still much better than most other random DD guns. Better to give them one decent gun over a completely trash DD gun, especially if it's free prints

[atomic abyss]

london has 165% efficiency secondary cooper

[strong tartan]

it's fine on Brest

[jaunty vault]

i know that

[steady beacon]

[strong tartan]

wtf London brawler master

[steady beacon]

Ender has now confused me and cooper

[atomic abyss]

london's DD secondary does more than her CA gun lol

[sweet delta]

me three

[remote yarrow]

Hmm idk 5th slot isn't that much of an upgrade imo it's either going for 6th if you are a whale or saving, so I would save it in case you need more dock in the future

[strong tartan]

me four

[topaz smelt]

ender these zoomers dont know who london is, they only know urs

[atomic abyss]

why is london even t4 anyways rice

what kind of crack were you on

[strong tartan]

I forgot what she did

[astral mesa]

I have been away for a while so idk about DD guns.
Which one should I be aiming for?

[jaunty vault]

i have used london more than half the bunch in here

[dull saddle]

Like whenever I grind all my ships have low morale so that is a problem

[topaz smelt]

have you seen the creep theyve given us

[atomic abyss]

sorry t3

[topaz smelt]

and also shrop is just abetter london

[jaunty vault]

[strong tartan]

mushroom

[remote yarrow]

But you can put 4 of them on 2nd floor + 2 on first tho

5th slot is just way too expensive for a f2p

[jaunty vault]

5th floor

[strong tartan]

5th floor

[remote yarrow]

But it's your gems at the end of the day so you have the final word

[atomic abyss]

i mean, feel free to compromise your event drops + bearn meta

[dull saddle]

Like I only do 3 battles and they have low morale alr, and I'm surprised, btw I also use the 1st floor to level up few ships

[remote yarrow]

Slot typo

[atomic abyss]

considering that you cannot limit break bearn with bulins

[dull saddle]

Damn ok ty

[keen sable]

10 slots isn't going to solve that. Are you one fleeting?

[dull saddle]

Not exactly, I have a fleet full of iris Libre ships and vichya dominion ships to grind for Brest and I have another fleet on standby for defeating boss if first fleet becomes very damaged

Kinda one fleet

[remote yarrow]

I mean, boss fleet won't run out of morale any time soon tbh

[dull saddle]

I thought more battles = more Exp so I do this

[remote yarrow]

You are only stopped by mob fleet which takes up 6/8 of your dorm slots but at different rates ofc

[keen sable]

So one fleeting. Only 12 slots will do anything. Anything less than 6 2nd floor is a least common dorm(lcd) regen micromanagement issue

[dull saddle]

Uh what? My single braincell can not understand what you are trying to convey

[graceful meteor]

I mean all you need to do is create another fleet and run

[dull saddle]

Oh that's all?

[graceful meteor]

If you don't have ship that can earn exp for cdc, oh well turn the game off

[wind hazel]

running into morale issue after just 3 battle is weird. that can only mean you didn't let them rest at all

[plain saffron]

Game doesn't update morale in resl time

You need to relog usually

[gusty olive]

Shrop is better than London?

[dull saddle]

btw I do 3x battles, idk if that is relevant information

[topaz smelt]

last i tested it updates every 5mins

[wind hazel]

3 set of sorties you mean?

[topaz smelt]

unless you desync

[plain saffron]

Hmm does it retrieve data from server every 5 mins

[dull saddle]

After doing the battles I rest for about 5 hrs

[dull saddle]

Yeah

[jaunty vault]

after retrofit, yes

[topaz smelt]

i think it updates server side and every time you try to run something itll query

[wind hazel]

ok that make more sense

[warm flax]

Who is this Alsace class?

[cobalt rapids]

alsace herself

[light trail]

there's no reason to get more UR vouchers if you already got 2 mogadors right? after that i can just ignore the rest and work towards other shop rewards?

[uneven cave]

Flandre

[remote yarrow]

but alsace is below that

[gusty olive]

huh... how? skills?

[cobalt rapids]

its a buggy bug

[jaunty vault]

stats

[plain saffron]

Yeah it always update server side, but game don't always retrieve it

Sometimes going to menu is enough

[topaz smelt]

i often just afk on the fight screen

[jaunty vault]

shrop has way higher FP that its just funny

[weary scroll]

what stage do i have to beat to fight sp event stage

[uneven cave]

D3

[plain saffron]

Mine always saying not enough morale

[atomic abyss]

D3

[gusty olive]

bruhhhhh

[topaz smelt]

shouldve waited 5mins

[weary scroll]

apparently my trp is too low

[dull saddle]

How long should I let them rest before their morale is full again?

[cobalt rapids]

no wait its flandre

[remote yarrow]

About 2 to 3 hours

[cobalt rapids]

why are flandre alsace class and alsace separated

[strong tartan]

Me

[plain saffron]

Not sure how cn does it but technically both are right class i think

[jaunty vault]

[dull saddle]

Ty

[willow dock]

Is damage modifier different from opsi+ dmg or?

[plain saffron]

Probably because different faction

[uneven cave]

Fleet tech screen separates Vichy and Free French

[remote yarrow]

Well nvm here you go I was way off

[jaunty vault]

yes it is different
it is also the main buff that +13 equips get

[torpid crystal]

im tryna reorganize my fleets, but I can't empty all my fleets

[plain saffron]

Fleet 1 can't be emptied

[uneven cave]

Cause it's fleet 1

[plain saffron]

Just swap in other ship

[atomic rock]

Should I buy out those augments from the shop

[jaunty vault]

only if you have spare event points

[tame jungle]

Check pins for priority

[torpid crystal]

it's annoying cause i'm tryna sort through my ships

[plain saffron]

Use select ship from secretary UI

When you select secretary

[torpid crystal]

wait that's actually genius holy

[plain saffron]

For some reason those ignore ship in fleet

[willow dock]

And would I be doing myself any favors if I made a full pr fleet? The intention here is to abuse the opsi+ flat damage increase via skills and from 13+ gears

Aw man.

[plain saffron]

Fleet synergy prob higher dmg than full pr

[dull saddle]

Who all are good ships? I'll make another fleet for cdc 2

[cobalt rapids]

some pr ships are good, forcing urself to pr only is just a handicap

[jaunty vault]

the opsi dmg boost is basically ignored when fleet building for opsi

[plain saffron]

Also pr ships will cap the ops dmg bonus

Cap is 20 they already have 15
So only 5 from equips really count

[willow dock]

I see

[jaunty vault]

a +13 weapon is basically 18% more damage when compared to +10 of its version

[glacial solstice]

Heres my roster atm
What fleets should i make for opsi

https://ibb.co/album/nBD81b

[cobalt rapids]

jda for late campaign + 2 other ships mlbed for tech like brennus and maile

[willow dock]

And this applies to all gears?

At least the ones you can 13+ anyways

[cobalt rapids]

on offensive gear yes
aux are just stats increases

[willow dock]

[silver lintel]

Can always pre lvl mogador

[dull saddle]

I have enough bulins to MLB 2-3 ships any good Sr that I should MLB?

[uneven cave]

If it's for PR grinding, honestly any ship that isn't Hwah Jah level doodoo tier with decent gear will do

[plain saffron]

Guns and torps it increase coefficient
Planes it increases guns/bombs dmg
Aux increase stats

[cobalt rapids]

even hwah jah doodoo tier will do

[silver lintel]

Hwah jah is 1rld tech

[uneven cave]

I used Chen Hai pre-retro in w12, she never survived

[glacial solstice]

Is that link not working? Ill try to send it all here then

[cobalt rapids]

do it in a thread

and please sort abit large docks, at least by main fleet first and vanguard second

[jaunty vault]

its not about link not working

its that no one's ever heard of that website and we dont click random links

[remote yarrow]

Also easier to just do it in a thread

[light trail]

oh yeah, i can just buy bearn meta crystals from the shop right? they'll be there forever?

[jaunty vault]

yes

[strong tartan]

at a later date ya

[remote yarrow]

I clicked the link if my pc gets hijacked you know who to blame

[jaunty vault]

but also

its better to get all bearn meta copies now

[light trail]

is it easier? also is she good

[jaunty vault]

yes its easier

and yes she is a good CV, that can stagger

[light trail]

i see, nice tyty

[inland shoal]

U mean drop from d3?

[cobalt rapids]

i think coop means the 2k crystals in shop

[jaunty vault]

i mean drop and event shop

[light trail]

wait her crystals drop?

[jaunty vault]

i mean both

[dull saddle]

This gun good?

[cobalt rapids]

after u get her first drop then subsequent convert to crystals

[light trail]

wait actually i was confused, i think i got one from SP unless i was mistaking it

[jaunty vault]

theres currently three sources you can get bearn meta from

map drops, build, and event shop

[cobalt rapids]

SP shares drop with D3

[inland shoal]

Oh they meant meta shop I kinda completely missed the point of their question
I would only buy the dupes after finishing farming tho

[jaunty vault]

yes that's what i recommend too

[light trail]

gotcha

[uneven cave]

Decent enough poverty gear
Other DD guns that beat it are all either PR or Gear Lab (and previous events)

Other than the twin 138.6 in the event shop rn

[light trail]

you need the same amount of crystals as dupes for any other sr right? 5?

[jaunty vault]

yes

[cobalt rapids]

original + 4 crystals

[inland shoal]

Well the first copy is not a crystal so 4 technically

[glacial solstice]

Fleets for OpSi

[light trail]

oh 4 right, tyty

[jaunty vault]

i mean

you want 4 dupes to mlb any other ship too

[light trail]

yeah i was remembering wrong

[jaunty vault]

[light trail]

in #event-faq , why are PR prints prioritized over DR prints?

[sullen gale]

did they give out free dock spaces?

[jaunty vault]

lol no

[remote yarrow]

No, they freed space by making META ships not take up space

[sullen gale]

ooooh thats why

i was starting to wonder lol

honestly nice qol change, ik some of you all complained bout this before

[inland shoal]

I mean if they were the other way round you'd ask the same question the other way round no? I think they're of pretty equal prio
And if you're done with PR and aren't desperate for protocores they're not that worthwhile anyway

[jaunty vault]

if i had to think of a reason, its probably cause you get more PR BPs for less amount of event currency

[light trail]

no, i ask because DR prints are (assumedly) more rare than PR prints, so my thought process was "more rare = higher priority"

[jaunty vault]

so you max out your PR ships faster and then you can focus on DR ships

then again, the shop priority is for people that do not know much about the game, so if you think something is higher priority for you, buy it

[atomic abyss]

Err
How many BP for DR FS again

[jaunty vault]

215

...wait am I seriously only halfway

[jaunty vault]

how do you fall for it, twice

[atomic abyss]

[sweet delta]

for personal use of bot commands

[atomic abyss]

No I did it intentionally you fools

[jaunty vault]

where are you

[atomic abyss]

Fs3 for Haku

[jaunty vault]

[atomic abyss]

I'm legitimately gonna FS5 Haku before Dev 30-ing Marco lol

[jaunty vault]

if youre at fs3 then youre less than halfway

[remote yarrow]

That's what I did

[atomic abyss]

Yeah shd be less than halfway...

Hmmmm

[inland shoal]

Well he could be at fs3 and 49 bps ig

[atomic abyss]

I'm at like 200 BPs with Marco

It's actually possible right

[jaunty vault]

[atomic abyss]

Anwyays
What do people use Harbin for actually
If they actually use her at all compared to the other non Plymouth CLs

[misty tree]

imagine having Plymouth

[uneven cave]

It's okay, I spent 4 months with a D30 Haku without even realising she had an FS5

[atomic abyss]

My ply is like D23

[jaunty vault]

i dont use harbin anymore

[inland shoal]

I mean I maxed my DRs before my PRs so that's entirely up to you

[jaunty vault]

but she's basically a better yuudachi

[atomic abyss]

I mean presumably the main CLs people use now are like

Ply, Helena, Aurora, Sirius, JinM, Harbin, Scylla, Shimanto?

And Sandy

[uneven cave]

I use her for 1:1 fleets in event SP
Dakadaka gunboat

Benched her cause Ply took her role, after Hindy took over the 1:1 bossing role

[remote yarrow]

Wait I just realized, there's no gacha UR CL

[atomic abyss]

Ok I forgot Rikka sorry

[uneven cave]

Where's my gacha UR AE

[topaz smelt]

rikkas deadge

altho my rikka toolbox for w14 was hilarious

[inland shoal]

If you count RodM Avrora, Noshiro mu
And if anything there's Ryza rather than Rikka ig

[topaz smelt]

i found noshi did worse than mint

[atomic abyss]

My understanding is that after ply, the DPS queens for CL are Scylla, Shimanto and Harbin

I know Shimanto, but what do the rest do in the "meta"

[remote yarrow]

Wait ppl use Noshiro muse? What for?

[atomic abyss]

Torp nukem memes

[inland shoal]

Yeah I meant mainly for ppl like me with a LB1 Jim

[remote yarrow]

oh

[atomic abyss]

Like I'm not sure what Scylla and Harbin do besides "le damage"

[inland shoal]

Scylla is barrage spam

[atomic abyss]

As in how do they perform in end game content

[topaz smelt]

more damage

[jaunty vault]

scylla doesn't do much

[atomic abyss]

Shimanto is one of the gods of w15 from what I hear

Ah, really now?

[uneven cave]

Hmm can Scylla carry an entire fleet's AA in W15

[topaz smelt]

ye shimantos cracked

[sullen creek]

Including scylla in top dps but not emden

[tacit jasper]

How to logout of new account?? (tutorial is blocking me)

[jaunty vault]

close the game

[tacit jasper]

it comes back after closing...

[jaunty vault]

clear data

[inland shoal]

Wasn't there also some Rikka boiler tech on was it Arizona meta?

[jaunty vault]

but then youll lose any not synced data

[atomic abyss]

Close the game, change to the correct server

[mental marlin]

who shall i take from special invitation? illustrious, tosa, sirius, chapayev, graf zeppelin?

[inland shoal]

How exactly? You close the game, then when you reenter tap your bind and make sure you selected the right server

[hard mesa]

Scylla, Barrage with avi dmg debuff, vanguard AA buff, cv dmg reduction

[dull saddle]

Purple mag torps good or bad

[tacit jasper]

it'sa new account im trying to login to my old account

& it's not allowing me to logout (same on all servers new account)

[atomic abyss]

Change server

[mental marlin]

can anyone tell me how to get to the pinned thread? lul

[atomic abyss]

Bad

You're tapping too many screens then

You're given the option to log in before choosing a server

[inland shoal]

I know
Do you maybe not know how to close the game properly? You have to actually kill the app so you land in the game loading screen again

[dull saddle]

What are good then?

[atomic abyss]

For purple rarity? Just the regular purple quad

[dull saddle]

And Gold?

[eternal moth]

Click one of these buttons

[atomic abyss]

Gold the best are the quad mags, if not the standard gold quint (not mag)

[silver lintel]

Does harbin have more dmg than the ddgs?

[jaunty vault]

1-2, alternatively 1-3-4

[atomic abyss]

#gameplay-help message

[tacit jasper]

im on that now cant use FB login some new rule they added you can login in FB without a phone number (on an emulator)

[topaz smelt]

needs more arrows

[eternal moth]

Then contact tech support

[inland shoal]

EN still has Twitter bind huh?

[eternal moth]

I don't understand why more people don't use Yostar accounts, but whatever

[tacit jasper]

yeah cant use it as well my old twitter was hacked

[inland shoal]

Vs heavy pretty sure yes, other armours dunno tbh

[jaunty vault]

basically, they dont know what it is

[inland shoal]

Probably they think they would have to make a yostar account for that

[dull saddle]

By standard to u mean the 533mm one?
Also what about the new torpedo in the event shop?

[jaunty vault]

the game does not do a good job of explaining shit like this

[atomic abyss]

It's a side grade for manual use

[atomic abyss]

The game doesn't do a good job at explaining anything tbh...

[inland shoal]

But yeah yostar bind is easily the best

[little chasm]

who should i get from the special invitation?

[topaz smelt]

selling your data to china or elon or zuck

[tacit jasper]

what is a yostar account btw?

[jaunty vault]

yostar account basically binds to your email, by sending you an OTP

[topaz smelt]

its not really much of an account, more of a pairing account to email

[sweet delta]

whats an OT🐴

[jaunty vault]

pee

OTP means one time pin/password

[atomic abyss]

Thank you cooper

[tacit jasper]

holy crud that worked... i forgot, already bound old account to YoStar....

[atomic abyss]

Could have done it without the piss joke but yes

[tacit jasper]

anyway.. thank you bye

[atomic abyss]

Sometimes, you just gotta believe in the you of a few years ago

[jaunty vault]

i just pronounced P for suchiguma

[steep merlin]

Does prinz heinrich give tech?

[atomic abyss]

Yes

[topaz smelt]

i hate that guy

[jaunty vault]

same

[atomic abyss]

She's not a little ship
Or a muse ship
Or a Collab ship

So yes she gives tech

[tacit jasper]

that was 5 years... ago.... 👴

[atomic rock]

If I'm getting Amagi from invitation, should I still grab hood from medals?

[silent stone]

after getting bearn meta, is it better to farm d2 for the dd gun

[steep merlin]

Oh I see, is she iron blood? I need that tech

[atomic abyss]

Hood is generally better than Amagi in today's era

[jaunty vault]

the DD gun from D2 is not worthwhile

[inland shoal]

Amagi is kinda bad compared to Hood

[atomic abyss]

I would just stick to D3 honestly...

[topaz smelt]

wait for her aug

[atomic rock]

Thanks!

[steep merlin]

Any cruiser better than Roon/eugen muse in the invitation?

[atomic abyss]

Eugen muse is not in any invitation wat

[topaz smelt]

ithink every thing in theres better than eugen u

pins also exist

[steep merlin]

No I mean if there are some ships that can replace my eugen muse/ roon

[dull saddle]

Nvm figured it out

[steep merlin]

I see

[dull saddle]

Also sometimes my screen goes white and text pops up with 3 buttons, what is that

[remote yarrow]

Never seen that actually

[tacit jasper]

soo.. Azur Lane's EN Community Tier List isnt updated too often now...

do we have an alternative or....

[topaz smelt]

dead site, still nothing better

[inland shoal]

Do you mean log mode..?

[atomic abyss]

What do you mean it isn't updated too often

[dull saddle]

Yeah ig

[atomic abyss]

I mean just ask here lol

[tacit jasper]

aw..... das sad....

[remote yarrow]

wdym it's up to date with Soyuz, you can't expect them to update it on release when it's basically community based

[jaunty vault]

azur lanes EN Community Tier List isn't updated because Azur Lane's EN wiki is dead

[inland shoal]

It's just for debugging basically

[tacit jasper]

i actually used to to know when an event is going to end... (to line up the limited free time)

[dull saddle]

Oh nice, I'll look more into it on my own
ty

[rapid grail]

good day, any renhex fleetbuilder links for cv builds?

[atomic abyss]

Airstrike calculator?

[fresh tangle]

Who should I get from this summer invite thing if I’m already getting illustrious from the newbie awards because I already have hood and enty?

[rapid grail]

if i remember there were some fleet links that had a lot of CV builds with gear and timing purposes

[remote yarrow]

You can also use the Banner to know when the event ends atleast that's what I do

[atomic abyss]

See piiiins

[gentle gale]

Do yall mind if i make a thread for w15 fleetbuilding? procrastinated a lil bit and wanna catch up for the gem clear rewards

[atomic abyss]

No worries just create it

[remote yarrow]

Not really but you can also check out #bot-spam /w15 before in case it helps

[rapid grail]

go ahead

[inland shoal]

Renhex has the site surely he knows

[eager abyss]

kearsarge or shinano

[topaz smelt]

remhex

[inland shoal]

But just try and check the collection of fleets?

[gentle gale]

Sum w15 fleet stuff

[inland shoal]

What?

[eager abyss]

which one does better

[atomic abyss]

^

Does better in what content
In what team

[light trail]

can someone explain this please? it doesnt make any sense to me, there's a lot of info being omitted and idk about wishing well specifics

[remote yarrow]

They are also pretty different ships

[eager abyss]

like damage or just in general

[atomic abyss]

Permanent UR ships have a "pity" that gives you a free permanent UR every 400 rolls regardless of wishing well

[light trail]

so i screwed myself over by picking NJ then?

[atomic abyss]

Yes

[remote yarrow]

In general, one's a CV and the other one's a BBV

[atomic abyss]

Can't be compared ^

They do completely different things

In completely different team comps

Which one you "choose" depends on what you have already

[inland shoal]

Not rly, ww is a scam anyway

[light trail]

but is it really a scam if i dont have NJ and i get her

[inland shoal]

[topaz smelt]

ye cuz you wont be able to use her

[light trail]

because no gun?

[topaz smelt]

not mlb

[inland shoal]

Yes cuz you used cubes to get her instead of getting her for free

[remote yarrow]

It's there if you wanna Cope with getting X ship if you have enough cubes to spare

[light trail]

how do you get her for free? do reruns have a trade system?

[inland shoal]

Idk how many cubes you have to spare anyway, with less than at least 400 I wouldn't even consider ww

Permanent pity

[remote yarrow]

Plus even if you don't select her you can get still her in WW

[light trail]

so should i just stop building any ships at all until the wishing well event is over

[topaz smelt]

ww is only good for daily pulls after event pulls

[remote yarrow]

Probably yes if you don't have over 400 cubes, just do daily pull

[light trail]

because that means the only other permanent UR (i know of) is shinano and i have her mlb

[inland shoal]

Just do one daily pull in ww or light

[fresh tangle]

Useful overview but now I’ve got analysis paralysis 😂

[inland shoal]

Sorry I'm not a doctor so I'm afraid I can't help you with that

[smoky palm]

do you need to kill the gold ships in supply line disruption to clear it? if so how many?..

[topaz smelt]

iirc it was 3 without any deaths

[inland shoal]

2 or 3 I forgor

[inland shoal]

If you don't have enough tech for FdG I'd probably go for GZ

[silver lintel]

Ww is good cos i got archerfish

[topaz smelt]

idk what a newbie is gonna do with af

[atomic abyss]

Newbies aren't gonna use much of subs

[wraith pike]

question, between Ägir, Anchorage and Laffey 2 who is the most versatile tank out of these three?

[fresh tangle]

Yeah I’m thinking tech choice as other factions seem easier

[crisp estuary]

Who is better for campaign? Alsace or Soyuz? For opsi?

[strong tartan]

Anchorage

[topaz smelt]

you kinda use all 3 in different scenarios

[fresh tangle]

Don’t think of of them are instant replacements for my current fleet 1 and fleet 2 I’m starting to build

[topaz smelt]

you play for the long term in this game

[wraith pike]

does these different scenarios are bosses, pvp and pve? if so, do you mind telling me more on the detail abt that

[topaz smelt]

agir is your main boss tank with bbs, anch is just another strong tank, laffii is a strong mob tank with AA

[steady beacon]

If PvP is involved, you only use the latter two out of the three to tank there
More info in first pin of #pvp

(Actually, I'm pre sure you also don't really tank with Laffey, but you do at least use her there normally, as opposed to Agir...)

[strong tartan]

Agir in pvp is a joke

[steady beacon]

Eh, I wouldn't go that far
She is weird, at least

[strong tartan]

she's quite the unit for it (not really)

[wraith pike]

many thanks for the answer all of them are very helpful, but i do have another silly question
does Hindenburg has the same capabilities as Unzen? for general use

[fresh tangle]

I totally agree but for a newb an instant upgrade is nice. Opinions?

[strong tartan]

general use is a pretty vague term

[steady beacon]

Both are high damage, albeit... kinda different types of damage

[topaz smelt]

leveling a new fleet before oil cap only slows you down

[fresh tangle]

I’m farming d1 and 9-1

[wraith pike]

for pve

[steady beacon]

PvE can mean a lot of things

[inland shoal]

That doesn't make it any less vague

[wraith pike]

also need help on how to clear this homecoming mission😅
i rarely play opsi so i don't really know how to clear this one

[steady beacon]

Your build for campaign mob vs campaign boss vs META vs Arbiter vs Challenge Mode will all look quite different, as a general rule

[inland shoal]

Unzen and Hinden can relatively often fill similar roles I'd say
In a specific fleet for specific content you'll still often find one better than the other

[hallow iron]

My max storage just shoot up to 50k gold suddenly

Is that from Joining a guild?

[crimson glacier]

player level gives you more storage

[hallow iron]

Ahh that explains it

[inland shoal]

If you bought the guild tech yes, otherwise no

[crimson glacier]

guild gives nothing until you buy the upgrade

[inland shoal]

Well you play OpSi until you get meta coords and then you analyse them aka start a fight against the meta

[hallow iron]

What's the max storage Ingame btw?

[inland shoal]

600k

[crimson glacier]

and 25k for oil

[hallow iron]

Wow ok wtf did not expect that
Also thanks

[inland shoal]

The soft cap becomes irrelevant after some point, idk what the max soft cap is that could theoretically be reached

[wraith pike]

when does this meta coords shows up? im still at operation level 3, is it still far away?

[inland shoal]

When you collect chests mainly
Explorables are a bit random in that regard

[strange sphinx]

isn't it when you fight Hiryuu META or no?

[solid sorrel]

Is event torpedo good

[frank pulsar]

you dont get meta coordinates from fights, you get them from exploring opsi to access the fights

[frank pulsar]

not rly unless you manual

[topaz smelt]

not really even if you manual

[steady beacon]

Still would use Mk IXs or Quint 610s even then tbh

[fresh tangle]

So I just pulled Alsace and think I’m going to replace Nelson(retrofit) when I get Alsace mlb’d… yes or no?

[topaz smelt]

prob kick penny out if you can mlb her

[atomic abyss]

And move hood to flag...

She's significantly worse without it

[fresh tangle]

Hood over enty for flag?

[jaunty vault]

yes

[atomic abyss]

Enty has 0 benefits from being in flag

[topaz smelt]

you normally wouldnt want a cv flag

[atomic abyss]

Hood's damage drops like a rock when she isn't in flag

[fresh tangle]

Is that because of salvo positioning?

[atomic abyss]

The barrage positioning yes

Hers is position dependent

[fresh tangle]

I only have one rainbow bulin anyways going to be a while before I can mlb Alsace

[strange sphinx]

Hmmm I thought you will just unlock the META fight after you fought Hiryuu META in opsi story

[sharp mason]

I just got back into this game after years, who should I pull/save for? This is my current fleet

[strange sphinx]

[sharp mason]

This is who I currently have but idk who I should use on my formation

[fresh tangle]

Correction I have two rainbow bulin. Forgot about Proto core shop 😂

[hazy marten]

if u low on coins/cubes, might as well save for next UR

[sharp mason]

I literally just started this account so I have all the things I can get from story and stuff

[solid sorrel]

Is souryuu retrofit good?

[hazy marten]

i usually save to make sure i can hit pity for UR ships, its like 400 cubes or smth and tons on coins

[solid sorrel]

How often UR ship get release

[hazy marten]

once a quarter maybe?

[sharp mason]

Last time I played, UR did not exist. Are they that powerful?

[hazy marten]

must've been a long time ago

usually they are a cut above else

[sharp mason]

It was a very long time ago

[solid sorrel]

How about this question

[sharp mason]

I still have my old account but I am so confused with all the new stuff that j just made a new one

[crimson glacier]

usually theres 4 UR events in a year

[hazy marten]

i can only suggest to look up tierlist

[solid sorrel]

Can i know where to look up

[crimson glacier]

this is the 2nd UR event of the year, next one should be in 4 months, and last one at the end of the year

[hazy marten]

just google it straight up

[strange sphinx]

[sharp mason]

Is there anyone else on the current Alsace banner worth pulling for?

[atomic abyss]

nope, just alsace herself

[atomic abyss]

https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/home

[sharp mason]

Do I need to pull for dupes of ur units?

[atomic abyss]

no

[hazy marten]

but itll take a while

[atomic abyss]

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

Refer to this

[strong tartan]

Feb > May > Sept > Dec

[fresh tangle]

For UR mlb is it just one rai MC or bulin per star or do you need two for that last rank?

[atomic abyss]

still need 2

so total 4

[fresh tangle]

Right. Time to proto farm

[fresh tangle]

So one pull a day outside of events to remain cube neutral then blow them in event for UR?

[solid sorrel]

Guess i am going to save up cube from now then

[kind slate]

Does anybody have a guess as to when we will get mog fix?

[sharp mason]

So if I am understanding this, I need to join a guild and get Unicorn. Outside of her, is there anyone I should add or remove from my current fleet?

[hazy marten]

sometimes it depends, but usually i try to pull non ur banners when i know i'll have 400 cubes rdy for UR

[steady beacon]

One (light) pull a day is still cube net positive due to guaranteed +4 gain from daily missions
But yes, that is the basic strategy
You can also pull other banners if you want to/can afford the cube expenditure

[fresh tangle]

Yeah I want to go into events let it rip and chill. You seem to get enough ships by reliable means you don’t have to outside of events

[hazy marten]

that guide from before has a link for fleetbuilding https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/fleetbuilding

[atomic abyss]

Go Hood, Alsace, unicorn
portland z23 helena

[sharp mason]

Is NJ not very good?

[light trail]

ok i think i understood a bit more about the permanent UR pity thing. i'm getting conflicting info from the newbie tips guide, though. Do event banner pulls count towards the perma UR pity? also, when you get that pity, you can choose which perma UR you want to get right?

[atomic abyss]

event banner pulls do not count to pity if there is a UR in the event pool
otherwise they do

yes you can choose

[light trail]

[atomic abyss]

URs are just very hard to limit break
and ships that are not limit broken are bad

alsace is the better of the 2

[sharp mason]

That sucks. Does that mean pulling for UR event ships is not super worth it for a new player? If UR ships are hard to limit break?

[atomic abyss]

no, UR ships are amazing and should always be pulled for if they are limited

[light trail]

they're hard to limit break because they're very rare drops, you need 4 copies of a ship to limit break

[atomic abyss]

you can just raise them over time

[light trail]

only alternatives to copies are UR bulins which you can farm over time but they take a long time to get (1-2 months of active play for one without an event going on that gives you one as a reward)

[topaz smelt]

a newbie can realistically mlb a ur in their 1st month of playing

[sharp mason]

Is Alsace one of the better UR characters to MLB? She isn't on that tier list and I only redownloaded the game for her honestly

[light trail]

is it easier to get UR bulins now?

[atomic abyss]

she's newly added so she's not on the tier list

[light trail]

she released like 3 days ago, so it's gonna be a while to get a placement

[atomic abyss]

she is better than NJ tho

[sharp mason]

And NJ is on the highest tier it seems. So I should be very happy I got her then

[runic bluff]

ummm I have a question:
is there any case where the shipgirls from point accumulation rewards ever get dropped in other maps?

[atomic abyss]

nope

not for major events like these at least

[runic bluff]

so only way to get them are by merit/core shop?

[atomic abyss]

for archived events, yes

[fresh tangle]

The general consensus seems to be that so far yes she is worth it

[sharp mason]

I'm assuming I shouldn't worry much about trying to get the retrofit materials yet since I am only on stage 1-4 of story? I saw that I need 100 more of the Voucher things from the event, how do I get them? Is it worth going for them?

[boreal wagon]

voucher count/sources is in the 2nd pin under FAQ

[atomic abyss]

push the story till you can do the event maps (so maybe around w3 w4?

you need the vouchers to get mogador, another UR

and yes worry about retrofits a little bit later

prioritise unicorn

[boreal wagon]

isnt hard-mode locked until w3 is done anyway

[gloomy mesa]

She any good?

[atomic abyss]

no

[sharp mason]

I don't think retrofits were in the game last I played either ;-;

[atomic abyss]

retrofits have been around since the game was released so...

[sharp mason]

Have they?

[atomic abyss]

they have

[sharp mason]

I don't remember them. Neat.

[runic bluff]

is the general rule of upgrading UR skills is like
red->yellow->blue?

[craggy hemlock]

what should i set my research focus to after i’ve finished all DR ships to 30 or FS5 if they have it

[crimson glacier]

just upgrade the skills in order and its usually fine

[atomic abyss]

there were 4 retrofits in the game when it released in Aug 2018

the tldr is look for the barrage skill

[light trail]

oh yeah, speaking of warspite, should i even bother retrofitting her anymore? i have an MLB one and 2 dupes bc she kept dropping, but i never even use her anyway. can i just retire the dupes or should i go for the shiny UR and then stop caring about her?

[crimson glacier]

barrage is practically always the first skill

[sharp mason]

I last played during December of 2018 I think

[boreal wagon]

unless you don't see yourself ever caring about collection% its basically never a good idea to scrap units that have a retro (as for collection% you have to do them eventually at least partially)

[light trail]

gotcha

[gloomy mesa]

I'm missing a good vanguard, anyone of them Worth it?

[atomic abyss]

what are your vanguard options even

[gloomy mesa]

For reference I'm a w10 beginner.

[atomic abyss]

and what are you using for your 2 frontlines?

[gloomy mesa]

Like hardly anything

[gloomy mesa]

One sec

[solid sorrel]

Should i farm for St Louis, i already purchase the skin, or wait until the wishing well event finish and yet i do not get her then i farm.

[gloomy mesa]

My 2 fleets and my vanguard options

[atomic abyss]

why shigure....

[gloomy mesa]

Shigure is in there for clearing the event stage requirements.

The trp one for D2

[gloomy mesa]

I'm farming D3 right now but to reach the min lvl requirements I have to keep her in there

[atomic abyss]

if i had to pick, maybe tashkent

tho chapayev is better

[gloomy mesa]

Already have her, last I asked about her usefulness I was told that she was more of a meme

[weary scroll]

who to retrofit after unicorn?

[gloomy mesa]

Your starter

[atomic abyss]

portland, then starter

[gloomy mesa]

Interesting

[atomic abyss]

cheaper and far more impactful

[weary scroll]

alr thx

[solid sorrel]

Can someone help me pls🥲

[atomic abyss]

chapayev then

[strong tartan]

don't actively farm for St Louis

[silver lintel]

Just farm if you wat her

[atomic abyss]

if you ask me

[strong tartan]

if you want the skin, get it now, then wait until she eventually drops at one point cause it's not like skins disappear if you don't have the ship

[inland shoal]

Do whichever you want, this is just waifu things in the end

But she's not exactly rare so

[strong tartan]

she's in the light pool so if you do your daily build she'll eventually come

[weary scroll]

what abt after that

[atomic abyss]

then we see what's there in the dock

[atomic abyss]

0.03% chance

[strong tartan]

it's a test of patience

[atomic abyss]

wait no my math failed

0.2%

[gloomy mesa]

But why is she a meme?

[atomic abyss]

tashkent? she isn't

she's no longer the best but she is still pretty good as far as non UR DDs go

[sharp mason]

Here is what my old account looks like. I'm assuming it is smarted to just stick with the new account though since I have 2 ur units. There is many more ships under these screenshots but I don't want to post too many photos

[atomic abyss]

i would have stuck with this honestly

[strong tartan]

so many docks

[atomic abyss]

hood and enty are still amazing ships
and at least you can farm the event

NJ aside, you still can get alsace
and easier time with mogador or the UR gun in the shop

[sharp mason]

im assuming the collab ships are just trophies at this point?

[atomic abyss]

the neps are at least

newer collab ships are actually strong

[weary scroll]

who to retrofit next

[strong tartan]

Saratoga

[atomic abyss]

saratoga

[sharp mason]

I also have the Kizuna AI collab ships. I mostly have no dock space at all

[weary scroll]

alr thx

[atomic abyss]

like

[strong tartan]

why is shimanto so zoomed in

[atomic abyss]

ask the devs

[strong tartan]

shimaaaaanto

[sharp mason]

how do I get more dock space on the old account? Im pretty sure that is the reason I stopped playing so long ago

[strong tartan]

buy

[weary scroll]

buy with gems

[sharp mason]

shame

[atomic abyss]

gems, but really it's an issue of better dock management

with the ships you have at least

[sharp mason]

Is there any way to get help with dock management? I can stream the stuff from my phone in a vc but idk if there is a chat to do that in

[atomic abyss]

create a thread

actually

Here is what my old account looks like.

[tardy sphinx]

is mogador still bugged

[boreal wagon]

on EN she is, but thatll be addressed this week likely

[spring scarab]

Graf Zeppelin is a good ship??

[atomic abyss]

no, she's meh now

[calm ledge]

Would it be possible for an account that only started last week to get mogador

[atomic abyss]

with enough dedication yes

[spiral ember]

Gearlab UR dd gun or new French dd gun which one is better on harbin?

[atomic abyss]

this new one is better

[strong tartan]

who said her dmg was comparable to ply with the 138.6

[inner delta]

what

whose the "her"

[atomic abyss]

harbin

[inner delta]

i mean like 138 is a pretty big improvement

[jaunty vault]

is it big enough to be conparable to ply

[strong tartan]

that's what I said

[inner delta]

idk

[jaunty vault]

no you asked who said it

[inner delta]

maybe with 100% torp hit but idk

[calm ledge]

Should i start on retrofitting javelin this early or save mats for someone else later

[atomic abyss]

focus on unicorn

[jaunty vault]

assuming 100% torp hit is kinda

[calm ledge]

uhh where/when do i get her

[jaunty vault]

then again thats what i expect some random CN magic numbers to assume

[atomic abyss]

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

[inner delta]

[calm ledge]

ooh ty

[jaunty vault]

and then cleo comes and loses her shit over impossibly assumed damage numbers

[inner delta]

i know yahoo said mog is equaling to ply but idk about harbin

[jaunty vault]

i would test mog gun harb vs ply gun ply

but imo current CM isnt the best testing place

cause 90% DR on takao which isnt always active

[mental marlin]

i wanna build an iron blood team, which units should i take in my formation´?

[jaunty vault]

why do you wanna do that

[mental marlin]

for fun

[strong tartan]

with 1 backliner? no

[jaunty vault]

do you consider muse ships as iron blood

[atomic abyss]

you can't even build one with the ships you have

[mental marlin]

i will fill the empty slots with other units....

[strong tartan]

just don't do it

[glacial solstice]

what PRs 4-6 are priority?

[atomic abyss]

almost all the pr4 are priority tbh

after fdg in pr2, players are advised to get anchorage in PR4 as their 2nd PR
then agir, then avp, then hakuryuu

[cobalt rapids]

what content

because for D3 or w12 exp grinding u can use anything u like

[atomic abyss]

fs5 avp asap
then fs5 haku
and only then move to plymouth

then brest then harbin

[glacial solstice]

should i use these?

[cobalt rapids]

dont use only in their respective seasons

V is fine to use on haku if u alr got 2 tenrais

[glacial solstice]

you mean those diving rainbows?

[jaunty vault]

prototype tenrai

[solid sorrel]

The event rainbow gun is good on what kind of ship

[whole crypt]

sup moggies

[atomic abyss]

destroyers
like your starters

[strong tartan]

firepower focused deedee

[whole crypt]

Ayanami absolutely doesn't want moggy gun

[glacial solstice]

so when a ship is now at fs5, you can convert those bps now?

[whole crypt]

you can convert starting from d30 but you need to turn off an option

[solid sorrel]

Ok

[solid sorrel]

Good

[velvet pumice]

is mogador gonna get fixed in next maint?

[atomic abyss]

we don't know

CN and JP have it fixed already

[velvet pumice]

w8 what? so en only has it?

[atomic abyss]

only en has unpatched mog yes

[glacial solstice]

so a ship reaches fs5, their excess bps have no use other than proto cores?

[atomic abyss]

yes

[velvet pumice]

welp guess we wait for their announcement whats the patched Mog? is it making her invulnerable when she does that skill?

[atomic abyss]

no

she has no form of invul

the tldr is that there is a limit to how much damage she can take from hits

while lunging

[boreal wagon]

#gameplay-help message is the long answer

[whole crypt]

she has invul if you take enough damage

[velvet pumice]

i see so she get small dmg

[whole crypt]

9.9 is quite a lot

[boreal wagon]

its just not certain death like before

[glacial solstice]

regarding the proto core shop, what are the priorities since they are very scarce

[atomic abyss]

/protocore

[odd root]

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

[velvet pumice]

still depends on what you need tbh but its better to buy bps of UR gears

since its basically 1 UR gear

[glacial solstice]

so far i only have 1 georgia gun, and 2 tenrais

so 1 drake gun and plymouth gun are the targets?

[velvet pumice]

i suggest get another tenrai

[whole crypt]

the fact is 3 champagne guns does more than one 457 or tenrai

[crisp estuary]

Alsace or Soyuz? For campaign? For opsi?

[whole crypt]

and you can buy six of them with the same proto cores

also BFGs

at the end of the day it depends on what you have or don't have

[whole crypt]

depends™️

[lament tree]

Who should i grab? This is who I currently have

[jaunty vault]

[lament tree]

That'd be useful if I knew what I was reading

[jaunty vault]

hm

[whole crypt]

the second pin "what should I get"

[jaunty vault]

i dont think i can help with that

[south sequoia]

Ask again later this week when alsace finally gets maxed

[whole crypt]

I don't expect a definitive answer for Alsace regardless

[lament tree]

I know where to look, I just don't fully understand it

[whole crypt]

then just hold on to the invite

it doesn't expire

[jaunty vault]

if you dont know what to do then just save the invite yea

[lament tree]

Or you could give a recommendation like I asked for

[whole crypt]

I doubt any of the ships will be immediately beneficial to you

or beneficial at all besides tech

[lament tree]

I see you guys talk about Sirius

[jaunty vault]

sirius is in medal shop

[whole crypt]

she's available from shop

[lament tree]

Ig it's between heinrich and chapy then since the others have 'easily accessible options'

[whole crypt]

those "recommendations" are out of ships that can only be built with cubes for now

[jaunty vault]

sirius is also useless for a new player

[lament tree]

Or illustrious

[jaunty vault]

lol

[whole crypt]

the thing is a lot of these ships are not necessarily bad ships, there's just no point for you to pick them up and work on them now

[glacial solstice]

is there a map guide for the richard files in opsi?

[whole crypt]

if you're up to BHR they should all be in classified loggers? no choice of zones there

[plain saffron]

yes

[jaunty vault]

anyways, CM run for ply plygun vs harbin moggun both had wuad mags and all equips on both were +10, i assume ply would only improve with +13 ply gun vs +!3 moggun
i hate this CM

[glacial solstice]

classified loggers? these things?

is there a specific logger to buy for the missing files?

[whole crypt]

just do all of them, free plates and designs

[jaunty vault]

all loggers have files

[cobalt rapids]

[jaunty vault]

it was you?

[cobalt rapids]

was me what

[whole crypt]

et tu, renhex?

[uneven badger]

is sirius not tanky as shimakaze or eugen

[unborn temple]

Umm just to make sure, special invitations don't expire, correct?

[atomic abyss]

eugen is very tanky, shima and sirius are frail

[jaunty vault]

sirius is not as tanky as eugen

[whole crypt]

Sirius is not really tanky at all but she can die and you'll be fine if it's not campaign

[cobalt rapids]

shimakaze is not as tanky as eugen either

[uneven badger]

idk my shimakaze is so tanky

[atomic abyss]

could be you're gearing them wrongly

[whole crypt]

that just means shit is easy

[jaunty vault]

yes, they dont
no, they dont

[uneven badger]

so sirius is just not tanky at all

[cobalt rapids]

neither is shima

[void turret]

who do I get for summer invitation

[uneven badger]

its prob bc my shima has high eva

[cobalt rapids]

its prob lvl difference and their locations in fleets

[whole crypt]

between her and Shimakaze if properly geared I'd say Sirius is slightly tougher

[glacial solstice]

CAs generally do the tanking

[atomic abyss]

see pins

[uneven badger]

shima is 122 while my sirius is 113

[whole crypt]

18%

[boreal wagon]

shima just has to be looked at wrong and shell drop dead lol

[atomic abyss]

as far as calcs as concrned, shima is slightly tankier

but yes the levels are the reason

[cobalt rapids]

[atomic abyss]

level difference accounts for your observations

in AL, difference in levels can affect the damage you deal and the damage you take

[glacial solstice]

oh yea whats the max level atm?

[reef flume]

Anyone here that knows how many blue books do I need to boost an UR ship from Lvl 1 to Lvl 100?

[cobalt rapids]

125

[uneven badger]

alright

[void turret]

so prinz heinrich

[glacial solstice]

still hasnt budged yet

[whole crypt]

depending on use case position is a bigger issue

[cobalt rapids]

why are u punchin me coop

[jaunty vault]

about 414

[void turret]

is graf zeppelin better than shinano-chan

[frank pulsar]

theres chart in wiki on that iirc

[jaunty vault]

should be when maxed out

[reef flume]

I didn't find it. Ig I'll look for it

[atomic abyss]

she is arguably better with augment

[reef flume]

Alright thanks

[jaunty vault]

i thought you were answering the exp book guy

[void turret]

is it worth the bulins though

[frank pulsar]

if you dont need the tech point imho no

[atomic abyss]

i personally don't think so unless you're lacking ironblood tech

[void turret]

i have like a bit less than 300 tech

[tame jungle]

does operation siren use the tile movement mechanic that's tied to fleet speed?

[south sequoia]

nope

[atomic abyss]

so you haven't worked on fdg or avp or agir yet right
then get gz

[tame jungle]

zamn...

[jaunty vault]

opsi tile movement limit is fixed

[south sequoia]

you can move where ever you want but you only move 3 tiles at a time

[void turret]

ok

[jaunty vault]

unless you get affected by map abnormalities

[void turret]

is bearn meta MLB worth spending the 8k over saving for the DD gun and torps?

[boreal wagon]

gear first esp. cuz u can drop bearn from b3 and d3

[atomic abyss]

no^

[digital vault]

B3 or D3 for most crystal fragments?

[atomic abyss]

d3

[digital vault]

this is weird, it says lethal on B3 but safe on D3

[atomic abyss]

that's not what those mean

[plain saffron]

because those are 2 separate stages

but they both drop bearn meta

[digital vault]

oh yea nvm. cuz of diff teams

[plain saffron]

threat lvl is per stage

[boreal wagon]

and also not based on ur teams

[fringe smelt]

Is there something that I should 100% recycle because it's just a waste of space? Take into consideration that I already beaten all of the game content

[stone epoch]

never noticed this before but is the D3 Stage description meant to be a random string of bolded letters?

[plain saffron]

caesar cipher

"encrypted" message

[stone epoch]

oh ok, i skipped the story so idk

[sweet merlin]

4 ur bulin: soyuz or the new ur bb?

[steady beacon]

Read it uh...
-7 mod 26

[strong tartan]

take those letters and go 5 letters back or something?

[steady beacon]

(What is that in positives... 19)

[late pike]

guys

[sweet merlin]

Try a rot 19 cipher. It was for spex

[plain saffron]

at least easier than what in CN

[steady beacon]

What is it in CN? 👀

[atomic abyss]

enigma

[late pike]

guys how to use the quick retire function, i =dk how to do it clicking each ship is pain

[atomic abyss]

[plain saffron]

they take the word and encode them using wrong encoding

[sweet merlin]

Auto retire exist

[atomic abyss]

they are asking HOW to use the auto retire...

[plain saffron]

but it make sense for them since they're CN and using diff than the rest

[late pike]

how

[kind slate]

would you mlb UR backline more than UR vanguard, regardless of what you already have? or dependent?

[sweet merlin]

Go the the menu and select n, r, e and set everything else to do not keep

[atomic abyss]

without context, backline

but usually dependent

[late pike]

ahh thanks
