[strange sphinx]

well... her skill will be still level 1

[stray crane]

do mogador's skills fire both gun mounts when they trigger or only 1?

[strange sphinx]

technically speaking, my Warspite is retro

[vale spindle]

1

however remember during all of these skill activated shots she is firing her own gun shots normally

so effectively its as if she has 0.5 additional main guns from each of the skills

[stray crane]

counts for AoA as well?

[inland shoal]

No I don't think so

[vale spindle]

AoA checks specifically for slot 1 weapon i believe

[eager mulch]

does it do the same for hindenburg

[stray crane]

hinden counts all 3 iirc

[inland shoal]

For Hindenburg it checks slot1 and slot3

[vale spindle]

what about yat sen dont both of their slots count

[topaz smelt]

nope iirc

[cobalt rapids]

seattle and yat dont

[inland shoal]

Also technically Mogador is firing her slot1 weapon as far as I understand, it's just a special way of firing

[vale spindle]

huh

[eager mulch]

hindenburg good

[vale spindle]

dr privilege

[prime kraken]

alsace or nj on boss fights, who would be the better pick

[inland shoal]

Assuming they're at same LB skill and ship level, Alsace

[tired condor]

the high efficiency oil thing doesnt give double exp right

[inland shoal]

It does

[steady beacon]

It does

[boreal wagon]

it doubles everything including the negatives (except mission counts)

[inland shoal]

Would be kinda ass otherwise tbh

[prime kraken]

alsace off or on flag? in place of bis2

[inland shoal]

Alsace doesn't care

[sweet delta]

Bisz doesn't care

[prime kraken]

so nj to mob fleet then?

[cobalt rapids]

is fleet 4 full ?

[prime kraken]

kind of
unicorn and indep, fdg as mobber

[cobalt rapids]

replace fdg

[meager gyro]

worth crafting?

[strange sphinx]

.... yeah I'm gonna use Warspite for now Until nelson or kearsarge reach their peak

also last question

Nelson need to flag or no? same goes for Bocchi the Ship?

[cobalt rapids]

nelson wants flag on multitargets, can offlag on single target
kear doesnt care

[strange sphinx]

hmmm ic, I contemplating about off flagging Yorktown II becausw of I have Northampton II in that fleet

[dawn crest]

Which is the better option to choose between Tashkent or Prinz Heinrich in the invite event?

[grand pier]

does the exp bonus you get from the food only apply to the exp you get in the dorm or also from farming maps?

[viscid swift]

the former

[steady beacon]

Only dorm

[grand pier]

I see thx

[strange sphinx]

tell, for farming mobs or collection?

[dawn crest]

farm

[sweet delta]

They're both collection

[tired condor]

the wishing well doesnt have pity?

[eager mulch]

it counts towards permanent pity

[vale apex]

i have alsace and soyuz mlb what to mlb next kron shinano NJ or mogador?

[cobalt rapids]

shinano

[vale apex]

mogador not good?

[cobalt rapids]

shinano gooder

[vale apex]

damn i thought limited urs are always better

[crisp wadi]

Spec core in weekly mission counted toward monthly limit?

[vale apex]

yep

[cobalt rapids]

yes, the only one that doesnt is medal shop

and beginner missions one time ig

[crisp wadi]

need to wait next month to claim then

[vale apex]

is mogador 2nd copy a priority

[cobalt rapids]

after first copy limited equips and 8k reserved for bearn in case u dont drop her yes

[vale apex]

yea i got the weapons of mog and first copy and bearn from sortie

so save for 2nd copy right? even before the blueprints?

[cobalt rapids]

blue prints are low value, get em after cogs

[vale apex]

aight

[plucky jackal]

GUYS, I got this invite letter from the event, who should I Pick?

[vale apex]

so if i alreaddy have bearn and i buy the bearn with 8k does it drop the meta crystal

[vale apex]

check pins

[cobalt rapids]

yes so dont, just get her crystals with 2k at the end

[boreal wagon]

you can also just buy the crystals directly for 2k ea which is cheaper

[vale apex]

ye i was just wondering what would happen

[plucky jackal]

I can choose Illustrious, Tosa, Amagi, Graf Zeppelin, Prinz Heinrich, Sirius, Chapaev, Taschkent.

Only one of them

[atomic abyss]

the pins tell you why each one is good, and what might fit your needs

[vale apex]

@plucky jackal

oh also brenus good? and bearn?

[cobalt rapids]

average

[plucky jackal]

Aight, Thank you

[cobalt rapids]

ok if ure a new player at ur first/second fleet

[plucky jackal]

Aight, I looked through and im stuck between Heinrich and Chapaev

[crisp wadi]

Does it better using vicha/iris Vanguard for Alsace 2nd skill? Or she's fine by herself?

[vale apex]

any elites i need to lvl up?

[cobalt rapids]

the ones that are elites from there

indep sara ark aurora

fdg fine to lvl if shes close to d30

[vale apex]

would you say 26 good enough

[cobalt rapids]

yes, are u at w12 yet? u should start working on ur pr4 ships

[vale apex]

im at w13

[cobalt rapids]

get ancho and aegir and avp and haku out then

[vale apex]

are all 4 good

[cobalt rapids]

very much so

[crisp wadi]

How much tenrai needed until i can move on to pr5?

[vale apex]

im researching chesire so i can finish the beginner mission thing for pr3

[cobalt rapids]

2 in depot pref

do that first then its fine

[vale apex]

any pr3 good ?

[cobalt rapids]

chesh good choice

[vale apex]

ye she was the only hot one

[crisp wadi]

buy her next skin then

[vale apex]

im f2p :')

[vale apex]

any ships i should 125 btw?

[cobalt rapids]

the urs

[jaunty vault]

lots tbh

[vale apex]

besides urs

[vale apex]

which first i mean

any of the 120s?

[cobalt rapids]

ancho and avp and enty and volga
and kazagumo

[viscid swift]

at the moment no, quite a few that you shouldn't have to be blunt

[vale apex]

aight ty

[calm panther]

how is Alsace compare to the other UR BBs?

[cobalt rapids]

well see, shes prob on the upper floor with the big 4

[vale apex]

is soyuz a big4

[cobalt rapids]

yea

[jaunty vault]

good dmg+support+preload+can store one BB load

[cobalt rapids]

bz sushi soyuz vanny

[calm panther]

bz and sushi are both flags right?

[jaunty vault]

only sushi

[cobalt rapids]

bz doesnt care, sushi just prefers it

[vale apex]

is mogador as good as laffey 2

[jaunty vault]

although any BB wants flag with plymouth

[undone plover]

why sushi prefers flag?

[cobalt rapids]

her slash from the barrage is centered on her not aimed

[jaunty vault]

not really, they do different things

[cobalt rapids]

but thats only 1/7 from her barrage

[jaunty vault]

but you also dont wanna whiff that

[cobalt rapids]

depends as always

if for example a ply boosted flag gains more dmg vs ply buff lost + 1/7 sushi barrage then she goes off flag

[jaunty vault]

you wanna get complicated with me huh

[undone plover]

i suppose in heavy armor u would flag her anyway cuz she will do the most dmg?

[weary scroll]

whats trp?

[eager mulch]

torpedo

[cobalt rapids]

its her best compared to the other ur bbs yea

[urban grail]

Does changing to the random secretary option still let the initial one get affinity?

Ty

[jaunty vault]

the one you had set in first secretary slot gets affinity not the random secretaries

[charred schooner]

a ship with 100 affinity can still lose it?

[jaunty vault]

yes

[cobalt rapids]

even a ship with 200

[charred schooner]

[gloomy crypt]

Does anyone know how to get more of these tier 3 augment module cores to craft for ships ?

[cobalt rapids]

timegated mostly

[warm flax]

LB0 Alsace should be usable for cdc right?

[viscid swift]

just about anything is usable in W12 on safe

[cobalt rapids]

anything is but lb0 sounds like 2 early prelvling

[cobalt rapids]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/common_resource#augmentation this guide lists their many sources

[peak mulch]

Does anyone know when the re run swimsuit skins for Shinano and NJ will happen

[cobalt rapids]

its usually either with even rerun or blackfriday or when devs feel like it

[peak mulch]

Does blackfriday happen like when the actual black Friday happens or is it different for AL

[cobalt rapids]

actual i think, sometime in november

[peak mulch]

Also I've seen that a few skins and ships saying that they will be in the dock soon Does that mean that when the update happens on the 30th that they will be here?

[soft raft]

Yes we are getting a second round of skins this week
No new ships, you were prob reading old announcements from last last week

[cobalt rapids]

u mean #game-news ? yes we still have skins batches to be added as announced in cn stream

[inland shoal]

No they just say that

Well they will be obtainable soon

But unless you invest they won't be in your dock

[peak mulch]

Is it just skins for this upcoming update or is there something else too

[inland shoal]

Dunno when FdL is coming

[peak mulch]

Whats FDL

[inland shoal]

Lil FdG

[cobalt rapids]

friedrich der little

[stark quiver]

so i already have bearn meta, and one copy of mogador, + alll the weapons from shop, should i go for BP or 2nd copt mogador

[viscid swift]

next patch

[cobalt rapids]

2nd mog copy

[inland shoal]

Or Friedrich der Lütte if you wanna keep the name German

[inland shoal]

Well there ya have it, not just skins

[peak mulch]

I love the little ships I got Shinano and akagi

[quaint marlin]

how do you get the bearn meta shard thingies

[inland shoal]

Drop her again

Buy them from event shop

[quaint marlin]

is that legit the only way

[inland shoal]

Buy them from meta shop

[quaint marlin]

oh tf theres a meta shop

[inland shoal]

Yes. I think they'll only be added there after the event is over tho

[quaint marlin]

nevermind im blind the things are in the vent shop

[inland shoal]

Yes as I have been saying too

[jaunty vault]

saucerking27 moment

[stark quiver]

is proto vit 2 parallel?

[soft raft]

Yes

[lyric pelican]

am i supposed to create a thread for help with team building?

[wild whale]

not seeing this in pins so maybe someone knows it, other than number of ur vouchers do we know how many points dailies give for events? trying to figure out how many more runs I need to do since my bearn is maxed and I just want my 2nd mog

[viscid swift]

it's in the pins, second one, scroll down a bit

[wild whale]

that's vouichers I want points

[undone plover]

750 missions 800 SP
-300 if u dont do 3x build

990 3x stages if u care about those

[wild whale]

1500 ish hmm lots more farming then

[undone plover]

16 days left though. take that into account

[wild whale]

oh, that's quite a lot so 10 vouchers a day 160 potential 'free' vouchers [with sp clear]

[lyric pelican]

Hard mode D1 setup

[undone plover]

there is a cap on the SP and daily vouchers

[wild whale]

hmm? I was counting turning the 750+800 into vouchers

[undone plover]

oh i see yeah sure

[wild whale]

so I'll more than finish with just the 9k points I'm sitting on + the remaining dailies

maybe by then she won't suck 🙂 thanks

[silk helm]

is z23 retro recommended before yuudahci?

[viscid swift]

if you haven't retroed one of the starters yes

[silk helm]

can i ask why?

[viscid swift]

not like Yuudachi retro is a high priority these days if you don't have her retro item

[atomic abyss]

retrofitting one of the starters is required for the rookie mission

[viscid swift]

you need to retro one of them for the rookie missions

[gloomy crypt]

thanks,this helped me a lot

[silk helm]

okie, gotcha ty

f/up question, why is completing rookie missions priority?

[viscid swift]

because at the end you get a selector and you can get among others Enterprise or Hood from it

[silk helm]

mm okay, i alr have enterprise/hood

[viscid swift]

less urgent then but you should still finish it

also that

[next spoke]

Is there a way to buy ur vouchers with gems

[atomic abyss]

no

[wild whale]

gmes-> oil-> get to farming

[eager mulch]

gems to oil to use on event stages

[gloomy mesa]

Alabama any good for beginners?

[next spoke]

How else can I get ur vouchers

[atomic abyss]

play the game

[viscid swift]

read the pins

[atomic abyss]

there is simply no way to run away from that really

[next spoke]

What events tho

[vale spindle]

read the pins

[wild whale]

[next spoke]

Like what’s fastest for a new player

[vale spindle]

theres vouchers from the minigame, from event stage clears

[wild whale]

everything. you have to do everything you don't get to picka fastest

[viscid swift]

there's only one way really and none of them are particularly fast

[next spoke]

Ok I am to weak to best any. Event stage

[vale spindle]

fastest would be minigame then the daily missions then spamming event stages and buying the vouchers in event shop

[viscid swift]

half of them you can't even do because you're so new

[gloomy mesa]

Okay not good for beginners, she good in general?

[vale spindle]

minigame + daily missions give you 170 ish and you need 200 for the ship

[next spoke]

Ok

[vale spindle]

so thats just 30 to buy from the event shop, which should be managable ish

[atomic abyss]

alabama has been outclassed by any ships, hood and nelson retro included

[gloomy mesa]

Lol, okay

[wild whale]

of which you easily earn that many pure event points even w/o sp

[vale spindle]

well if they are spamming a1 cause thats the only stage they can do its not that easy

[next spoke]

How to clear sp

[wild whale]

ain't it just pull 3, do some hard nodes do your other normal dailies

[vale spindle]

go to hard difficulty -> beat stage d3 -> then sp stage unlocks which is harder than d3

the level requirement is average ship level within fleet should be 110

[next spoke]

I did not even unlock dorms yet

[vale spindle]

yea so you can't do SP then

[alpine ether]

am i dumb i completed 7-1 and i just didnt got a prompt to choose one of these 4

[atomic abyss]

the guy is likely a few dats in

[next spoke]

What can I possibly do to get it voicjddd

[vale spindle]

ignore SP

[wild whale]

its in the missions you have to complete the others too

[next spoke]

I have 105 from mini games

[vale spindle]

your best bet is to do event stages (highest one you can clear the better), as well as waiting for the daily missions

[alpine ether]

as in the entirety of chapter 7?

[viscid swift]

one, stop following that guide, it's out of date
two, the final mission to unlock you need to clear the rookie missions and the final mission is beat 8-4 not 7-1

[next spoke]

Okay Ty

[wild whale]

as in the entirety of the exam missions

[alpine ether]

is there an up to date guide

[viscid swift]

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

[alpine ether]

thank you

[wild whale]

yeah its called your new player missions

[cinder bloom]

Has anyone calc'd the amount of specialized cores/UR bulins we get in total per week/month vs. the total required to MLB all UR ships? (Assuming all possible free UR bulins are grinded out?)

I know this is not an issue for vet players atm, because we got way more specialized cores than we ever needed, but now I can't tell

[viscid swift]

at current rates you get 24 a year plus the number of UR events that year

[eager mulch]

enough to mlb 6 ships

[viscid swift]

pretty safe to say you can expect at least 28 UR Bullins a year which is enough to MLB 7 URs a year

[cinder bloom]

Interesting, I wonder if we'll continue to get 2 URs per event then

[viscid swift]

who knows how often it will be

[wild whale]

there are currently 17 ultra rares assume what 4-6 new ones a year?

[soft raft]

6k max spec core per month
that x12 = 72k per year
Which is enough for 18 UR Bullins

And the total is more when you count Cruise pass and UR event/rerun pt milestones

[wild whale]

assuming you can max out 9 ships a year and 4-6 are added per year it takes a bout 5 years to max everything starting from 0

[eager mulch]

what

[silk helm]

so its 4 UR bulins to MLB?

nice. only 1 away from my first MLB UR

[wild whale]

june starts in 3 days 🙂

[viscid swift]

why do people assume that you indeed or want to MLB every UR

[wild whale]

I solved the math question I didn't assume anything

[worldly pewter]

may is 31 days month

[undone plover]

Reruns/perma and the occasional dupe will help u MLB every UR if u actually wanted to. U just need to be patient. Veteran players didnt get 100k spec core overnight

[wild whale]

I thought it was june you're right

[viscid swift]

there also wasn't a lot to spend them on at one point

[silk helm]

cuz shiny

[worldly pewter]

cuz u start the game without any UR

[wild whale]

I know vets with so many ur bulins they max out second copies of ships, people absolutely want to max everything lol

[undone plover]

That can be you in 2 years

[viscid swift]

yes, but that doesn't need to happen over night, nor will it anyway

[wild whale]

probably 3-4 depending on dupe luck in pulls

[viscid swift]

I'm barely maybe 1/3 of the way leveling every ship to 120 at this point

stuff like that just takes a while, there's nothing you can do practically to speed up the process

[wild whale]

tbh I'll worry more about unlocking every research first, that's a more achievable goal

[worldly pewter]

imo it is about making the comps that u want to use

which in the end might or might not involve having all the UR ships depending on the player preference

[vale apex]

whats special abt BZ

[zinc herald]

would nj be better in this fleet instead of kearsarge? (light armor scenario)

[eager mulch]

good damage good skills

[vale apex]

i saw a reddit post saying no other BB does what she does , why is that

[eager mulch]

no other bb has her skills

[vale apex]

i mean thats true for every bb...

[eager mulch]

that’s not true

[sweet delta]

Nevada and Oklahoma have the exact same skills 🤓

[forest palm]

they're also near identical in stats, and slot eff

[sweet delta]

no

[dusky narwhal]

How good is the yamato gun on alsace? Or what gun should I have her on for general use?

[sweet delta]

what is general use?

[dusky narwhal]

I'ma mainly use her for mobbing and prob in W15 mobbing too

[sweet delta]

460 is indeed more valuable on a preloaded BB, but if it means she's desynced from your other two boss fleet ships, that's not good

for campaign you want faster guns for killing weaker enemies more frequently

twin 457 or triple 406 /50 are the options

[dusky narwhal]

So geo gun? I have one only and it's on Bisko but I'm close to getting a second

[sweet delta]

457 better

you only need 1

a 457 for the mob BB, and the boss BB can use 457 or 406/50

[onyx frigate]

I'm having trouble clearing world 11 since i never really cared about grinding gear or other stuff, anything i should look into?

[dusky narwhal]

Alright will do! And I'll look at my guns because I'm bad with names

Other than having just one BB on each team in W15 the other two should be CVs right?

[cobalt rapids]

meeting acv reqs is good

[sweet delta]

3 bb 3 cv(l) is workable but meeting air supremacy is good

[dusky narwhal]

Indep uni Alsace and for boss what should be the boss back like? I don't have implac, York II only shinano

[grand sigil]

How i am to understand this datasheet? (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KUGpvLg9Q-BU8yGe-REeuZCydiK8Ffxh/edit)

[cobalt rapids]

use wiki instead

[grand sigil]

okay

[hushed cliff]

Is Eugen Muse worth using? Her skills look really fun

[cobalt rapids]

fun is a valid reason to raise but shes not competing with the top

[dusky narwhal]

W15

[inland juniper]

Whats the best way to get UR equipment from research?

I do Qs but I feel like I get no blueprints compared to people who somehow already have like 10 of each UR gun or plane. How do they get so many? Is it literally just that?

[hushed cliff]

Analyze blueprints and just buy them

[soft raft]

You're prob comparing yourself to veterans who've been playing for a lot longer than you, and frankly having more than three of any UR weapon is mostly just flex value

[hushed cliff]

wait nvm my brain omitted the UR part

[eager mulch]

it’s literally just rng

[hushed cliff]

also how good is Mog really compared to other DDs

[eager mulch]

good damage if she isn’t killing herself

[alpine ether]

when upgrading a meta ship does which one i upgrade matter or is it all lumped into a sum fortification rate?

[eager mulch]

same as enhancing, they all have their own caps

[novel solstice]

There is a fixed number of times you can do each one, so just do them until you can't do any more. Order doesn't matter.

[alpine ether]

i see. thank you for the help

[crisp wadi]

Did Mog skill already fixed? Or is just her kit to just jump to the enemy?

[eager mulch]

mog is fixed

[zinc herald]

hows mogador for opsi currently

[eager mulch]

good damage if she isn’t killing herself

[zinc herald]

how frequent can we expect that to happen

[eager mulch]

depends™️

[zinc herald]

on what

[inland juniper]

I guess but I've been playing for like 5 years now and have also had every PR ship maxxed out for a while but I still only have like 2 of each research UR. If its RNG then its RNG i guess, but was just curious if there were other better things to research aside from Q that I didnt know about since some people have so many.

[crisp wadi]

For Ops with AvP yorkii and enty setup, which ship usually used in frontline?

[forest palm]

tank, Aurora, filler

[tranquil saffron]

Just use double healer

[eager mulch]

[zinc herald]

was planning to use mogador instead of helena so i can free helena for cv fleet, if she can survive that is

[uncut oar]

remind me rq what does one do for adapts

(apart from the very obvious adapts in shop)

[novel solstice]

Running around random maps you will periodically find things that give you +adapts. So go around clearing the easy zones, it'll raise your adapts and then you can clear the harder ones...

[uncut oar]

hmm, I'm already almost done with my explorables

so ig I'll just do this month without full adapts, hiatus things

[worldly pewter]

do the hidden zones and buy from akasi

[soft raft]

no why would you
ignoring the fact that she's still janky af, her skillset is barely simillar to Helena's

[zinc herald]

for using helena in cv fleet

[light trail]

1. why is mogador janky
2. which ships, as examples, would i want to use this gun on

[topaz smelt]

shitty skill design
no one

[light trail]

damn

i felt that was the case considering it's on no one in the tier list but that makes me sad lol

[soft raft]

what 30s reload time does to a mf

[light trail]

well I'll still use mogador for shiny ur waifu reasons but ty for the straight up answer

[lime raptor]

I used to use that on UvH off flag tbh

[silk helm]

Do we know what's included in the 5/30 update?

[eternal plinth]

could imagine it being usable on champagne with the reload skill lmao

[viscid swift]

not yet

[inland shoal]

FdL, dress skins, new cruise pass, dunno about anything else

[viscid swift]

even on ships like Champiagn and UvH the 457 is better

[tired condor]

is repair toolkit good

[cobalt rapids]

Yea its good

[eager mulch]

how good

[tired condor]

its 1 percent hp every 15 seconds tho, thats not a lot of repairing

[inland shoal]

You underestimate 1% every 15s

[viscid swift]

consider that over the course of 5-7 battles

[sinful elk]

Now that ive mlb nj which i will be going after next, kron or alsace

[cobalt rapids]

Its also +500hp

Alsace

[strong tartan]

Alsace

[sinful elk]

[eternal moth]

You only need 2 more bulins for Kron, so I'd finish her first

Guys, Kron isn't that bad, especially for someone that still hasn't finished Akashi's quest

[cobalt rapids]

Id rather have a top bb than 15% more dmg on my aegir sidegrade

[eternal moth]

And how long is it going to take to finish any of those top tanks?

[cobalt rapids]

They can use kron at lb2

Alsace gains much more

[viscid swift]

not that long and let me counter by saying when will you need a top tank

not that soon if they're early still

[eager mulch]

[sinful elk]

Is it necesary to put french ships to go along with Alsace

[eager mulch]

I’d consider putting someone in the vanguard if you want her buff to be perma

but that means I’d have to use Alsace

[sinful elk]

Yeah i dont have much french ships other than the current event ones

[frosty slate]

Triple 305mm M1907 Main Gun Mount throws me a warning before disassemble, I have 9 of those, should I keep 1?

[eager mulch]

keep 1 ig, it says that cause there’s no other way to get it permanently

[rain vine]

you keep 1 for gangut

[frosty slate]

Is the best gun for her?

[rain vine]

its basically the only gun you can use on her because her skill requires it

[eager mulch]

but it’s still gangut

she’s just tech so it’s just a matter if you want the tech grind to be slightly less bad

[frosty slate]

Aight, I'll keep one for her then

[rain vine]

granted, her skill is quite a big buff on her

[tired condor]

disassemble?

[rain vine]

yes

[tired condor]

when does a bb fire its secondary guns

the main gun is fired when u press the skill right

[eager mulch]

when there’s things in range

which isn’t too often

[tired condor]

so their secondary is only useful when the vanguard dies

[eager mulch]

no

[tired condor]

or exploding bost

[eager mulch]

you can see BB secondaries firing on suicide boats or W14 rammers or when things slip past your vanguard

if your vanguard dies you just lose

[undone plover]

does HELP double affinity gain?

[soft raft]

Yes
think of the 2x plans as doing 2 runs at once

[undone plover]

i know the basic premise but wanted some confirmation

[forest palm]

conversely sinking side affect will also be 2x

[abstract latch]

Is the kaga any good?

[rain vine]

no

[abstract latch]

Ah

[abstract latch]

Is it better than hiryuu atleast?

[rain vine]

theyre kinda on the same level

[abstract latch]

Ok, I shouldn't bother using kaga then?

[rain vine]

arguably hiryuu would be better because shes easier to get, but you wouldnt use her in progression either

[rain vine]

nope, not worth it

[abstract latch]

Aite thx man

[split flicker]

am so pepega, how do i do "Recover 1 record file(s)" and "Activate 2 switch mechanism(s)" in OS? Can it spawn in already cleared location?

[viscid swift]

Files are basically lore dumps consisting of 6 files each and they have to be collected in order

and the Activate Switch Mechanism can only be completed in Explorable node iirc

so you're limited to one attempt each month

[sacred silo]

Who's the best ship from invitation event. Also can I just keep the invitation or does it expire

[viscid swift]

Check the pins and it does not expire

[split flicker]

oh i see, i guess i can drop it then. The only time i wanted to clear all OS failed

[stone sluice]

When using the radar VI or that thing to locate a siren through the OPS map (costs 100 points to access), if you beat the siren with only one fleet, is it guaranteed to get the rainbow gun blueprint (for the gear lab) or is it just rng?

[viscid swift]

You mean Abyssals

You're not guaranteed to get any UR prints from them

[stone sluice]

[split flicker]

and what about "Use the siren scanning facility 6 time(s)? Same limited?

[graceful meteor]

that one can spawn on explored area

[pseudo hearth]

Do we have a general idea when Agir gets a Fate Sim? Since Haku got here a couple months ago, I can't remember if there was a specific timetable for this.

[rain vine]

who knows

[soft raft]

There is no timetable

[viscid swift]

There isn't my hunch though is that a DR will get a FS every January now

Which DR is still a bit of a coin toss though

[pseudo hearth]

Tbh though, I'd argue it doesn't work well considering we get 2 new DRs every year.

[graceful meteor]

2? I thought it's 4+ and rerun as well

[rain vine]

research rainbow

[graceful meteor]

Oh dr mb

[viscid swift]

It doesn't but that's never been a priority for DR fate Sims anyway

[graceful meteor]

Tbh, I think they should just scrap the ship research system
It was fun, but with the way UR being released, ewww

[dusk sparrow]

for pvp, is laffey 2 a good replacement for Shimakaze, since I don't have her

[rain vine]

#pvp would be able to answer that better

[dusk sparrow]

ty

[undone plover]

I am missing 2 strongholds. checked under all the other icons and cant find em. do I have to actually clear the other stuff before they show up?

[sweet delta]

Only up to 3 strongholds can be visible at once

[undone plover]

yeah I cleared 4 strongholds and cant see more

[sweet delta]

Maybe you forgot earlier in the month

[undone plover]

i sincerely doubt it. but I will check after clearing abyssals and restarting game

[gleaming bay]

any of these a like must have or are really good

[soft raft]

Enterprise

[gleaming bay]

also who should i pick from this early summon

[knotty jasper]

Enterprise is a good air support.

[soft raft]

Early summon?
Wdym by that

[gleaming bay]

did water puzzle got a invite letter has a bunch of shipgirls i get to pick

[soft raft]

oh the invitation letter
you can read the pins for details on all the ships featured in that

[grizzled creek]

I got the same question about who to pick, not rlly sure who I want or may need

Unless they are all meh

Or box dependent

This is who I all got tho I believe if it helps any , I wanna be as optimal as I can

[viscid swift]

Frankly everyone in the invitation is just tech realistically

I'd just hold onto it personally until I'm missing just one ship from it

[topaz smelt]

kms tech is kms tech

[eager mulch]

who would be the most redundant to pick out from the invitation

[viscid swift]

Everyone who's in the medal shop or WAs

[eager mulch]

it’s amagi time

[viscid swift]

Which means all but 3 Tashkent, Henrich, and GZ

[undone plover]

restarting game solved it. now the strongholds show up

[cunning bison]

trying to grind french backline exp, i have alsace and jean bart what shld be my last one? and setup for french frontline exp?

[vale apex]

aurora better than avrora?

[soft raft]

just take three applicable ships and go grind

[viscid swift]

They do different things

[soft raft]

She definetly sees more use than Avrora for sure

[cunning bison]

searching for the best and most efficient, also where shld i grind then lol

[viscid swift]

Best and most efficient is 3 ships that meet the xp requirements and need levels

[soft raft]

W12

[vale apex]

i just mlbed avrora thinking he typoed T_T

[viscid swift]

W12 is easy and it would be a waste to use xp capped sholips for i5

[cunning bison]

ty u 2

[sweet delta]

avrora isn't elite

[vale apex]

ye well i thought since sara and indep werent elite either in my dock maybe he meant avrora

also didnt know aurora existed

soooo is avrora any good

[sweet delta]

only good when the other 2 vanguard ships have high dps

so no for you

[vale apex]

checked my dock?

aight thanks ;-;

should i mlb chapayev

[drowsy gust]

best vanguard line up for op siren mobbing?

[hollow gust]

for what fleet?

[soft raft]

ig closest to that is CB/Unzen/Hindenburg

Tho granted OpSi mobbing is piss easy and almost anything works for it as long as you arent trying to solo harder OpSi content with your mob fleet

[vale apex]

she is in tier 0 so should be good right @sweet delta

[drowsy gust]

oh so hindenburg is not a boss fleet focus ship?

[sweet delta]

good does not equal useful

[frank pulsar]

nah hinden is just a generic strong dps

[vale apex]

not useful for me?

[torn phoenix]

is Alsace gone after this event?

[drowsy gust]

great thanks

[vale apex]

until next rerun

[soft raft]

until she returns in 2ish years yes

[torn phoenix]

ah alright, thank you

[stark quiver]

what will june cm be?

[sweet delta]

can be useful but do you have gold bulins

[fathom sable]

Should i raise a ship that i will eventually not using for tech points? like raising them to 70 then retire it or going all out to raise them to 120?
Also, is Ägir still good?

[soft raft]

Yes for MLB, for lvl 120, depends on what fleet tech they give
Agir is still good yes, but she kinda fell out of favor in W15 from what I've seen

[misty tree]

By the time i can tackle W15 Agir’s replacement will have been replaced

[stark quiver]

could i have just auto deployed my fleets in meta showdown instead of clicking 20 times

[fathom sable]

I planned to build a second fleet and put her there
Anyone's opinion is utmost welcome

[soft raft]

better to post your dock in a thread and specify what content you're doing if you want fleet help

[viscid swift]

For dossiers yes

[golden moth]

Guys whats your opinion on mogador after her buff/s..and fix?

[viscid swift]

No clue because the fixes haven't dropped on EN yet

Nor do I have her maxed anyway

[golden moth]

Hmm i see..noted

[worldly pewter]

i know the abyssal getting covered by the stronghold if they are in the same zone not the opposite

[undone plover]

yeah i am aware of that. I double checked everything anyway but they were not there ig the game just needed a restart

[vale apex]

can mlb 1

[glacial heath]

when will mk7 be added?

[sinful elk]

Chat should i go for bearnM mlb or 2nd mogador

[steady beacon]

Should be June 6th maint

[viscid swift]

I would go for the latter first if you are short on UR Bullins

[sinful elk]

Yeah kinda lacks bulins rn

[golden moth]

Ohh really..it will be added on gear lab?

[steady beacon]

Yep

[worldly pewter]

what is the best way to get ryuusei bps ?

[sweet delta]

you don't need ryuusei bps, just gear lab them

[atomic abyss]

Don't you get them from research regardless anyways

But yeah just upgrade tenzan kais

[sonic hull]

I just started today and pulled Alsace what should I be using my cubes on now?

[viscid swift]

Start saving

Go back the usual one light build a day

Since there's a wishing well event going on though, pick 2 ships from the light pool and do dailies on that until it ends

Refer to the pins for more details on who to choose

[sonic hull]

Alright thanks

[cerulean tide]

How should I increase my fleet tech? Mine is abysmal. Should I level ships to 70 then scrap them?

[viscid swift]

Yes and you should MLB them but I wouldn't scrap them

Some of them will be needed to actually grind xp among other things

[cerulean tide]

Alright, thanks, and now the problem will be dock space

[viscid swift]

Just get more dock space

[elder parcel]

is there any link or page with updated opsi fleets (with their gears possibly)? been out of the blue for some time, using the same stuff for months and now i wanna improve them

[viscid swift]

well that depends on what you have

[elder parcel]

i got everything

[viscid swift]

well what are you using currently then

[elder parcel]

mob fleet been a semi waifu fleet for a long time, ive got sussy recently and will replace ariake soon
i havent payed much attention to the new URs and even less so to SRs lately so yea

i still clear everything just fine and even with lower adapts, just wanna update it to make it better

[sweet delta]

kear replaces enty, pick 3 of alsace bisz vanguard soyuz musashi for BB, kron goes somewhere to buff the flag BB crossfleet

change fdg to a crossfleeter or a preload aquila for faster clears

[viscid swift]

Kazagumo instead of Ariake, and Guam to one of the CV fleets

[sweet delta]

and submarines could be fixed unless theyre your waifus

[elder parcel]

RF is there for +1 ammo for more cmd XP, dont really need to use subs

and okie, noted everything, gonna do the changes
ty!

[viscid swift]

also drop potter for Laffey 2 since you're gonna be using Kearsarge

[sweet delta]

Guam should not be in the yorkii fleet unless she's needed to be the third eagle union ship

[little tree]

What is th3 invite used for ?

[viscid swift]

read the pins

[elder parcel]

btw does it matter which combination of BBs i use nowadays?

[sweet delta]

different if you want to minmax for specific arbiters

[elder parcel]

nah i just ball it, max i do is swap guns

[little tree]

Okay what one should I get with my current. Dock

The carriers or bb

[viscid swift]

I would personally hold onto it you're missing just one ship from the ticket

[frosty slate]

I have one Prototype Triple 305mm SK C/39 Main Gun, for CB. worth keeping? to whom should I equip it?

[sweet delta]

for not changing BBs, bisz is best to be included, then probably alsace plus one of (soyuz or vanguard)

[viscid swift]

it's the 3rd best CB gun so yes, use it on any CB

[frosty slate]

and i have like 15 FBA 19 blue planes, are they useful or I can get rid of them?

I'm doing cleanup of gear, and setting good equipment on the right girls... These are all my CB guns, I also have all the CB girls, into whom I should put each one?
Considering they are all max level and things like that

[topaz smelt]

you move the 1st one around

[torn raft]

how good is alsace compared to other UR bbs?

[frosty slate]

I also have this one, I forgor

[soft raft]

That gun doesnt meet the caliber requierments for the DR CBs
It's a CA gun so lower priority for CBs in general even without the caliber requirement due to the advantages of CB guns

[frosty slate]

Alright, thanks! I'll put that one on a CA then

[frosty slate]

And what about these ones?

[fathom sable]

Is there something about "what ships should i develop from the shipyard"?

[viscid swift]

yes
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/research

[fresh tangle]

Do you continue doing 3 pulls a day after you get Alsace and brennus?

[main latch]

is this any good

[viscid swift]

if you have the spare cubes and want the elite DD for collection sure

Otherwise go back to saving

[soft raft]

Yes its good
Always buy event gear too, better to have it now and not need it later than to not have it and need it later, even if some event gear is shit

[fresh tangle]

I’ve got three of the elite DD so was just thinking for the even currency but I might just do one a day now and start accumulating

[eager mulch]

currency can just be grinded

[fresh tangle]

Do they ever buff old event gear?

[main latch]

Who could i use it on

[viscid swift]

they have buffed gear precisely once in my time of playing the game

[eager mulch]

(which is a long time)

[soft raft]

Any gunboat DD

[fresh tangle]

Yeah I mean D1 is easy for me now but d2 is still awkwardly slow I’m struggling to push

[viscid swift]

even still 5 cubes for practically nothing is not worth 300 event points

even 2 is too much

[alpine ether]

which of these boxes are the best to buy

[viscid swift]

none of them are worth the asking coins

[fresh tangle]

So back to one build a day in your opinion

[alpine ether]

is there anything more important i should be spending my money on cause my collector has been capped for like 2 days

[viscid swift]

limit breaks, gear enhancement, event pulls if you haven't gotten alsace, upgrading the canteen/lecture hall/merchant, research projects, etc

[alpine ether]

kk ty

[craggy dragon]

is there a place I can see all the skins I own?

[tame fog]

just finished FDR dev 5

who should I go for next? Azuma or drake?

[viscid swift]

FS5 you mean? Take your pick between Azuma and Drake really, both are in the same boat.

[tame fog]

yeah my bad

meant fate sim 5

[grizzled creek]

Do u think I could hold it long enough to pickup that many SRs? I'm missing most of them on there

[viscid swift]

well it doesn't expire

[tiny scaffold]

planning to buy gems for more dock spaces - around how many is optimal?

[eager mulch]

cheeky when did they put Franklin d. Roosevelt into AL?

[viscid swift]

I'd say you want to least 300-400, if you're gonna be a collector around 700

[viscid swift]

soon TM

[eager mulch]

dock space you want enough room to farm without getting interrupted often that your dock is full got focused by cv in ranked today

[wispy cosmos]

u can get away with about 680 for now with the new meta dock

[grizzled creek]

Oh ok then , I'm chillin then like it says in pins, just wait til I'm missing one or choose a waifu

[ionic mango]

Hello. Did they finished fixing Mogador's Red skill?

[viscid swift]

nope

[rigid spire]

For the Early summer invite, who would be the best unit? Day 3 of playing here...

[steady beacon]

Pins have got a summary of each available ship
Although probably none of them can be utilised effectively right away if you're new

[south sequoia]

I'd keep the invitation for now and use it for when the time is right

Alot of the ships in the invitation are nothing special, some are easily accessible
And plus they are ssrs

They won't do much for a day 3 player unless they are super powerful that it transcends even limit breaks.

[rigid spire]

That's fair, thanks~

[sweet delta]

invite tech points for fdg

[sharp socket]

i did a little math and ill need ~800 purple aux plates to +10 all the remaining auxes i have, how do i get so many

[viscid swift]

Farming

[sharp socket]

is there a faster way

[stone sluice]

Good aux gear for Tai yuan retro?

[sharp socket]

i have 1.5k torp plates and over 1k for plane and main gun

but almost zero aux plates and im not even done +10’ing all of them

[soft raft]

Seal of 4 gods and a Toolbox

[placid cipher]

I'm very new. If the rate up ends, does the pity carry over to the next banner?

so... 200 or nothing

[sharp socket]

yes

but chance is 1.2% for UR

[remote yarrow]

Well yeah, but you could get her before 200 pulls

[placid cipher]

99% of gamblers quit before making it big

but, alright. I see. thanks

[remote yarrow]

Btw welcome to the game, you might wanna give this a read as a new player
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips

[placid cipher]

eh... so that's why they gave me a free portland. ok, I will give it a read. thanks for the heads up

[viscid swift]

No but consider that you looking at upgrading 2 auxes for each ship

[sharp socket]

i guess the repair kits can stay +8

[crisp estuary]

[wintry quartz]

[blissful hamlet]

any news when mogador patch coming to EN?

[viscid swift]

Nope

[wintry quartz]

One day 👍

[blissful hamlet]

[dim remnant]

What's about mogador?

[verbal thistle]

Are AA guns worth bringing to +13?

[blissful hamlet]

she's suicidal

[forest palm]

Mog S1 commits yeetus deletus

[eager mulch]

what else will you do with gold AA gun plates

[blissful hamlet]

depend on the AA gun

[forest palm]

Twin 57, Sextuple, and Twin 113 are the only ones I can think of

[verbal thistle]

What about Twin 134?

[forest palm]

lol, no

[blissful hamlet]

[verbal thistle]

Huh, okay.

[forest palm]

as a practical AA Gun Twin 134 is bad, it exists solely to be a stat stick

[inner delta]

134 is only for fp stat pad the aa isnt great

[blissful hamlet]

unless you're clearing w15 I don't think +13 AA gun is high priority

[grizzled creek]

Actually I know I asked a little earlier but not much , so would any of those early summer invitations replace Laffey/portland ? Since I don't got em Retrofit or at least Laff

[verbal thistle]

So I should focus on the Twin 57, Sextuple, and Twin 113.

[inner delta]

For aa yes

[verbal thistle]

[grizzled creek]

I ask just in case , just to make life easier

[forest palm]

I believe there's a Rookie Mission to retrofit Portland, or at least get her to Lv 100, Laffy is also in a similar situation

[grizzled creek]

O

[grizzled creek]

It's just very expensive , and I don't see myself doing the retrofits for them anytime soon since I'm still farming for Unicorns

I know helena will probably take a while to get a better option

[uneven cave]

If you have enough gold bulins, you could consider Tashkent for Laffey and Heinrich for Portland
But stick with your starter/Portland since they're a lot easier to get and cheaper to max out (remember the invitations don't expire)

[forest palm]

I'd honestly pick Heinrich if only for the German Tech to pursue FdG faster

[fleet cove]

I can buy enough of one of these guns blueprints to make it which one is worth more?

[forest palm]

neither are worth it

[uneven cave]

Have you already bought the other 2 UR gear

[fleet cove]

nop

[grizzled creek]

Yea I have enough SR bulins to MLB another SR , ik they're cheaper it's just I kno they won't get best usage before Retrofit which will take months, I'm just tryna get strong enough to try n farm D1 on this event at least

[forest palm]

take Heinrich honestly

[uneven cave]

Get the Tenrai and quad 152 first

[grizzled creek]

Ok & she can be used over Portland ? At least since she ain't retrofit

[forest palm]

yes

[grizzled creek]

I'd still use Portland when I get a 2nd squad anyway unless I alrdy have other tanks

[forest palm]

you'll have to deal with Portland eventually for the Rookie Mission

[grizzled creek]

Are those important to finish off

[forest palm]

the Beginner Missions give a lot of worthwhile resources, so it adds up

you can look over all the missions here
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Beginner_Rewards#Easy-0

[fathom sundial]

What does the MGM+2 mean in the pre evaluations?

[forest palm]

the amount of Gun Mounts a ship has

[eager mulch]

additional gun mounts

[forest palm]

MGM + 0 is 1 Gun Mount, MGM+2 is 3 Gun Mounts

[fathom sundial]

Oooh, got it

[grizzled creek]

Also that ship isn't on there I don't think

Nvm

That's the last name I'm blind

[eager mulch]

because prinz could be several ships

[forest palm]

too many Princes

[uneven cave]

Prinzmetal

[grizzled creek]

Ngl they're a gud looking waifu too I'm taking em

What do I do with the letter I got after choosing ?

Or is it just gonna sit there

[south sequoia]

It just sits there

Consider it a trophy

[grizzled creek]

O ok thx for tha info . & she can replace Portland as soon as MLB & same level ?

[eager mulch]

a trophy to remind me that i picked tai yuan for lny 2024

[remote yarrow]

What's with ppl wanting to replace Portland asap even when they don't even have a second fleet

[eager mulch]

because low rarity does not activate monkey brain

[south sequoia]

Guess they really don't like the whole sistercon thing

[forest palm]

who wouldn't want to replace a ship with all the personality of a card board box

[south sequoia]

But thats not something for this channel to discuss.

[forest palm]

realistically it's not all that hard to replace Portland on a technical level

[south sequoia]

It is, I'd even consider using eugen over her
Thing is, you're kind of forced to use her.

Not in a literal sense, but who could resist passing up all those juicy rewards and prototype cores

[hallow iron]

The beginner mission where we need to promise a ship means to oath them right?

[south sequoia]

Yes

[hallow iron]

I notice the promise ring is availble in the shop for 600 gems, do we have any other way to obtain that ring? Maybe rewards from event

[south sequoia]

You get a free ring from missions if you reach 100 affinity with a ship though

Aka "Love"

[lethal tangle]

is the new DD ur gun good for laff 2?

[zinc turret]

monogami for poor polygami for whale

[sleek spade]

is Alsace worth oathing? I only have 3 rings left and I wanna use it wisely

[eager mulch]

oath waifu not stats

[sleek spade]

but stats important too

[eager mulch]

meta slave

[sleek spade]

boner slave

[grizzled creek]

When u farm "hard" mode on the event does it skip to the boss like campaign ? After u clear it fully

[zinc turret]

no

[grizzled creek]

Hm I guess I'm farming C2 then ... cause this C3 is hard XD

[sleek spade]

bruh

[grizzled creek]

Wanna be able to auto farm it : /

So I watch TV n farm

[forest palm]

C2 is the more optimal node either way

[grizzled creek]

Yea whoever said I could reach n clear D3 lied

[forest palm]

oh, it's totally doable

[grizzled creek]

Cause my team is level 97-99 MLB n I struggle with C3

[median galleon]

just came back to the game, do I keep the action point refills even after OpSi resets?

[forest palm]

nope boss

[median galleon]

So I gotta blast it all before it resets?

[forest palm]

might be a gear issue, but with about 14-ish days left you have a lot of time to push

[grizzled creek]

Probably so, but I can't rlly get better stuff yet since I'm a newer player

[forest palm]

even with some proper purple gear, it can do wonders

[grizzled creek]

Yea I looked at some infographic & what not but didn't rlly help my gears out much since I don't own most of it

[forest palm]

have you looked at Sam's guides?

[grizzled creek]

I believe it's what I looked at not too sure , had pictures with the names of gear

[tired condor]

theres nothing u can do with purple tech boxes except open them right

[grizzled creek]

I'd probably need actual help to properly set these ships up

[forest palm]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/equipment#priority_guides

this is what I'm talking about

[grizzled creek]

Oh yea that's the one I looked at , it's definitely too much for what I own rn

I don't have 90% of all that

[forest palm]

throw me your fleet then, and I'll give you a gear box friendly setup

[karmic pebble]

Mogador or alcase who do I level first

[grizzled creek]

Ok thx , send it here or Private ?

[forest palm]

Alcase

[karmic pebble]

I got 4 ur bulins and I want the best value

[forest palm]

just post it here

[karmic pebble]

Is the DPS good?

[karmic pebble]

Bet

[golden moth]

Guys question the new dd gun from the current event..how good it is..and also in the dd/ddg we have which of them will benefit the most..by using it..

[forest palm]

most all DD benefit from it, it's quite strong

[grizzled creek]

I can almost buy the weapon myself

[forest palm]

granted those that use the Blue Gun like Ayanami, and Shimakaze they do not want it

[zinc turret]

imma stuck at 9-1 campaign

my boss killing fleet's vanguard always die

[golden moth]

Got it..so only those blue gun users i could say dont want the UR dd gun..hmm

[soft raft]

Welp what does that fleet look like?

[golden moth]

Is mogador a blue gun user or nope?

[forest palm]

she's not

[golden moth]

Got it so she can ig benefit using it..by benefit means can increase and or maximize their dmg and proc their skills ig a ok..

[uneven cave]

MGM+1 blue gun

[grizzled creek]

That's the priority in the shop right ? That Ur gun ? Or do I buy the packs for Mogador first

Unless I don't buy those at all

[eager mulch]

buy both

[grizzled creek]

Well I can't

[eager mulch]

still 2 weeks left

[grizzled creek]

I mean yea , but not guaranteed I'll be capable yet by then

I don't see it at least, I'd just hope so

I do wanna farm 30k crystals tho total minimum

[eager mulch]

34k for mog gun and mog dupe

[grizzled creek]

Well I don't own her yet , so idk if I prioritize buying the Tickets for my first copy or the fun first

Unless the gun will help me be able to farm ez

[zinc turret]

i use my 2nd fleet to hit the boss

[eager mulch]

you can get the first copy pretty easily without buying ur vouchers

Taz those fleets look sus to me

[grizzled creek]

That's what I mean , do I just get the weapon then? First ? In case I don't get the vouchers

[forest palm]

there we go this all can be found in gear boxes you can use this
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Equipment#Equipment_box_contents
the left is pretty basic, while the right is slight upgrades over the left

[hallow iron]

Can i still get mog dupe + weapons with 34k points if I can't do the daily sp mission?

I think The first time reward for sp is 50 of those tickets, not sure how much the daily give

[eager mulch]

sure

[grizzled creek]

Good lord & thx

[eager mulch]

you’d need to buy more if you don’t do SP

[grizzled creek]

I dont have any of those special equipment on my characters yet

[hallow iron]

My brain has rotted due to brennus-chan

Do u know the math for people who can't do sp lol

[golden moth]

Guys just curious as the current META stands...the helena.met and such

Which of those meta ships see u can say useful?

[forest palm]

at least give your ships those specific Auxiliary, and it'll improve your gameplay a lot

[eager mulch]

+17,250 more currency

[frosty slate]

Is the Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A-6/R6 (Carrier-based Prototype) any good?

[eager mulch]

niche

[hallow iron]

Pheww sp stages gives a lot huh damn

Thanks btw

[forest palm]

oh, right forgot to mention the the Shells on Hood in the right image, are from Core Data @grizzled creek

[soft raft]

Hoo boy that's pretty scuffed

• No suicide boat interception in the first fleet
• Having a DD main tank is mega sus
• Perseus sucks in boss fights because she's a complete deadweight after her preloads are spent
• Centaur is shit
• Why are you using non MLB ships

For now, get Helena and merge the two fleets to make Hood/Unicorn/Essex Portland/Jav/Helena, get W9 to safe first, and then you can focus on raising ships for a 2nd fleet

[grizzled creek]

Ok, and I wanna buy that right? When i can ? The shells ?

[forest palm]

yes

[eager mulch]

shells are good

[frosty slate]

So i'm alright with crafting just 1?

[eager mulch]

you’re all right crafting none

[frosty slate]

Good, time to keep up cleaning then

[zinc turret]

well im new here i dont know what to do and i juust slap everything i have

[hallow iron]

Repair toolkit don't stack right? Is it just for the hp stats? (I'm a newbie)

[eager mulch]

skills don’t stack but the hp does

and hp is good

[hallow iron]

Icic

Off tank Need those extra hp I assume

[eager mulch]

kinda sorta

[zinc turret]

its have lethal threat

[eager mulch]

dds want more hp cause they already have high eva

[hallow iron]

Ahh make sense

[forest palm]

ya, it's essentially bread, and butter

like how this is a bread, and butter combo for Cruisers

[eager mulch]

I’m always stacking bread 💸

[soft raft]

No wonder why that 2nd fleet was struggling

Anyways here's this https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips , it'll help

[eager mulch]

admin is here gn gph

[frosty slate]

Is this one good?

[atomic abyss]

It's good but not worth crafting in gear lab

So if for some reason you have it from researching series 2...

[soft raft]

Just make a IJN Twin 410 Kai instead for essentially the same performance for much cheaper

[zinc turret]

aight thankyou , i guess i need helena huh

[atomic abyss]

Sure I guess
But why are you even researching PR2?

[wind hazel]

👴

[grizzled creek]

Does the Event UR gun replace any of those

I could afford it rn barely tho

[forest palm]

Laffey's gun

[atomic abyss]

It replaces Laffey's main gun

[grizzled creek]

& it'll make a difference u think?

[gloomy ivy]

Quick question yall anyone know if theres any reimbursement for extra meta crystals obtained from farming the event stages?

[stark quiver]

Spam event stage, nothing else you can do

[grizzled creek]

I guess I gotta buy it either way tho

[soft raft]

Iirc those get converted into META shop currency

[stark quiver]

Pretty sure it turn into fragment

[grizzled creek]

I'm trying

[zinc turret]

hmm i can clear c2 with 3 3 fleet and i can clear b3 with 1 1 fleet , which stage is better to farm ?

[gloomy ivy]

Copy that thanks yall

[grizzled creek]

Well I gotta farm 30k shards so I'll buy the gun I guess then work on other stufff

[stark quiver]

You can’t do D stage?

[remote yarrow]

You should probably try to push to D1 or D3 since oilcap

[zinc turret]

no i think im too weak , i even struggle at c3

[grizzled creek]

I just beat c3 u can do it for sure

[zinc turret]

that 2 miniboss is really strong

[grizzled creek]

Ur a lot stronger then me

[zinc turret]

should i avoid the miniboss ?

[remote yarrow]

You can run from them and kill other stuff till boss spawns if you wanna

[grizzled creek]

I fought it ^ I just manual played the bosses n saved the abilites til the end to nuke them

[zinc turret]

i see , i always do auto battle cuz im not really good at controlling so many thing at once

[grizzled creek]

Yea I usually auto too, I wish we could auto it so can farm but it'll be hard for us this early I think I can't be convinced otherwise

So ima probably just auto c2 myself n farm my points

[tame orchid]

Is west virgina or colorado better

[sweet delta]

they're good but there are better for easier

[craggy panther]

Is there any website where they actually show what weapons to use on What ship? Im terrible at the weapon setups.

[stark quiver]

Wait are the siren looking things in event stage mini bosses?

[zinc turret]

yeah i guess they strong af for me lol

[remote yarrow]

check out /equip over at #bot-spam or you can check out ECTL, but make sure to read gear notes by hovering over since gear is content dependent
https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/home

[zinc turret]

and its can chase my fleet

[tame orchid]

Hmm like who? I have hood

[atomic abyss]

Equal, just use Nelson who's better than both

Nelson retrofit is about as good as hood is

[tame orchid]

Oh damn

[zinc turret]

atleast its not ordinary escort fleet

[craggy panther]

Thanks

[tame orchid]

Who do yall rec for the special invitation btw

[craggy panther]

And Im also woundering about ”tank ships” , is the tank vanguard ships the ones with medium armor? Like bremerton for example?

[atomic abyss]

Not necessarily
Some heavy cruisers are frail

[atomic abyss]

See the pins for our recommendations

[sweet delta]

tank is a combination of HP, EVA, luck, armor type, and skills

[craggy panther]

Allright, ive been playing for 2 months and i still can not get a correct setup.

[tame orchid]

Is nelson better than amagi

[zinc turret]

did guild important in this game ? i havnt joined any guild yet

[soft raft]

After retrofit yes

[atomic abyss]

With retro yes
Without no

[strange sphinx]

What skill should I level up first for Nelson retro? the Big 7 or the second one?

[tame orchid]

Hmmm i might go for heinrich, seems like a good tanky CA

[strange sphinx]

also does she need that auxiliary?

[grizzled creek]

@forest palm how do u show that screen that shows what they all have equipped?

[strange sphinx]

.... where Can I get that auxiliary though

[forest palm]

it's a fleet builder
https://renhex.github.io/AzurLaneFleet/

[tame orchid]

Wait is heinrich better than portland retrofit

[forest palm]

yes

[tame orchid]

Huh

[forest palm]

Portland retro is a base standard, not a high bar

[atomic abyss]

The yard stick basically

[remote yarrow]

Would say so, since guild operations give equipment plates and you can also buy dock space with coins+guild coins look for an active one over at #friend-and-guild-id

[grizzled creek]

I see, I can't fully copy the builds u sent just a little of it , so do I use that to show what I got ?

[atomic abyss]

Just like with hood
You craft it

[remote yarrow]

He's talking about the Aux not Augment

[atomic abyss]

Ah

[remote yarrow]

You get the Aux through mementos

[grizzled creek]

Unless I just screenshot them in game to show the gear I have

[remote yarrow]

You get that Aux through mementos, by getting both Nelson and Rodney MLB

[strange sphinx]

oh... Rodney

[forest palm]

you could use the fleet build, otherwise screenshotting all the gear is certainly an option

[strange sphinx]

[grizzled creek]

That website is slow for my cause no Wi-Fi where I'm at so screenshot I guess XD one sec

[remote yarrow]

Smh renhex make your tool work for bad internet

[tame orchid]

Graf better than Saratoga retro?

[zinc turret]

what ship good at killing suicide boat ? battleship ?

[grizzled creek]

Also sorry the pictures that's about to load

[strange sphinx]

[forest palm]

I'd honestly use Sara over Zep

[remote yarrow]

Nope, the other way around

[grizzled creek]

That's the literal best/closest I can get

[atomic abyss]

Sara with retro alone is already stronger

With her unique augment she completely outclassed Zep with her unique augment

[grizzled creek]

Best I can copy at all

Everything else is gear that was said to be poo or blue gear

[forest palm]

time to open gear boxes

[grizzled creek]

Out of those too

[remote yarrow]

T3 and T4 specifically Compose T1 and T2 over to T3 if you haven't done so

[forest palm]

Helena, and Heinrich ain't gonna last long without a Rudder

[grizzled creek]

Dang I'm getting roasted already

[remote yarrow]

How far off are you from Uni retro btw?

[grizzled creek]

I need like 3-4 gold pieces

[zinc turret]

i need 1 gold piece

[remote yarrow]

Have you been checking out guild shop? There's Gold bps in there sometimes

[grizzled creek]

Drop rates r so bad , and yea unlucky tho ^

[strange sphinx]

second worst option for Gold.... Medal shop

WORST OPTION BTW

not recommended

[zinc turret]

yeah the price islike .. sacrificing 100 blue ship

[lament hazel]

Rate this Alsace Gear, too unsafe for Discord

[grizzled creek]

Dang man ... so c2 it is

[forest palm]

could be better

[atomic abyss]

Uhhhhhh good if you're tackling med armour I guess

[lament hazel]

Name me the ways

[remote yarrow]

AA could be better

[lament hazel]

What AA is better?

[lament hazel]

Ok noted

[remote yarrow]

STAAG

[fathom sable]

How do i check the rewards for data again? i kinda lost after the new UI update

[lament hazel]

noted

[remote yarrow]

What rewards for data? Mementos?

[strange sphinx]

I mean you can Change the UI back

[remote yarrow]

If that's what you mean click the small button on the bottom left and there's it is

If not idk what you mean by data rewards

[grizzled creek]

Anywhooo . Farming C2 I can probably get the UR bulin right ?

And also , Is it worth prematurely feeding Alsace my current ones , or should I hold n wait

[forest palm]

wait till you can MLB

[lament hazel]

How about this one?

Too NSFW to be shown on her screen and currently MLB'd 121 with 1/1/9 skill iirc(I have too many blue books that I raise Blue skill first)

[grizzled creek]

Ok

[remote yarrow]

That's better, btw why the emphasis on "NSFW"?

[uneven cave]

If it's not one of these, you don't need to worry about posting their official sprites

[remote yarrow]

You mean the skin/sprite? You can show your loadout with it in here with no problem whatsoever

[forest palm]

Clyde is stupid

[karmic pebble]

Bet

[wind hazel]

1/1/9 skill is funny 💀

[lament hazel]

The string

[wet prairie]

Wait why is anson banned

Ahhh

[lament hazel]

Uh... I usually use...
