Please, I have said it time and time again
This game has always been about of opportunity cost
So by going for a DDG retro you sacrifice the rainbow bulins
It can add up to get one? 
What would a new player have use for a good ship even
cute secretary
Over Indep retro tho?
Unable to 'buy' free pack cause I have too much oil. Good way to get rid of oil fast? Looks like I'm wayyyyyyyyyyy over cap....returning player from yeaaaaaars ago.
Sorties or dorm food
naval curry in dorm
Oh good, food, thanks!
you dont have to claim it rn, u got 5 days left
That also
anyone buys dorm food?
not over indep but after that. also i prefer 1000 spec core for a fully functional ship rn than waiting another 2-3 months
Yeah after Indep lol
If you are lazy to grind and have excess oil, yes ppl buy em 
Unique is suggesting missile before Indep lol
why would you need to wait 2-3 months for 1000 spec core
dorm food is kind of a waste of oil
Which is the most
ever
it's literally like a week
But what if u can't grind tho 
That's assuming people grind consistently
i mean waiting enough spec core to buy enough URin to MLB a UR
i got like 2k from my mail box when was clearing it. not sure if will ever buy it
id rather do oil comms then
That's ok. Save your oil n coins in the storage when u need em 
and? 1000 spec core does not delay that by a significant amount. no one is suggesting you spend 8000 on every retrofit item.
I have a lot of reading to do before I get to grinding and doing things...dunno how my ships are gonna hold up. I guess I can just go after top I see now and see how it goes.
Oh forgot those exist
I rarely use em so I can't say much
just keep grinding 
that's my point.....
3k is the stopping point if u are low on oil?
No he's just showing it for an example
fine let me rephrase
i prefer spending 1000 now and buy retro item and get a fully functional ship rn, than waiting 2-3 months to get enough UR bulins and MLB a UR to the a fully functional ships
1000 spec core delays bulin by 1 month since income is 1,5/month
Nagami
so chan chung before indep ?
The original argument was missile before Indep
Hold that thought for a bit 
That's my primary issue
yes i know i'm saying about the other argument
Not the stupid rainbow bulins
I was at 130 like yesterday if you want to know
that is most certainly not income
is 6k spec core per month not the income
this one
spec core yes. bulin no
its irelevant, if u take 1000 core after 2 months ull have 2 bulins instead of 3
Wait thought the original argument was indep vs ddg missile? 
i doubt people will buy items for ddg after only playing for 2 months anyway
this applies at any point ingame ?
Yes tosh
i'm lost too bro. can anyone explain in fortnite terms
That was the original argument
What's the priority to craft for gearlab as in the gold gear
i believe cruise missions give 1 ur bulin every 2 months too. why no one counts them in?
/gearlab
i specifically meant spec core bulins income, since cruise pass bulin income is unaffected by w.e u do with your spec cores aka using em on retro items
if some one already miss the spec core by 1 or more it already add to another month, so 1000 won't add another month in that situation
if you're not sure what to do with the cores you don't lose much not buying anything 
I'd personally prioritize UR bulins until you have enough to fill key spots in 2 fleets with URs
Aight so basically just get Indep from the shop. 
So I should aim for the cl and DD gun?
which you need more
u should aim for conv tbs and wyvern and skc dd gun is ok since it doesnt fight for mats
there's also the fighter for w15
Pancakes?
All of my BBs still using purple gear atm
I mean
nothing is wrong with that
Yes, the best available HE BB guns are... Purple so
Soon it will be rainbow 
until you get champy gun or UR gun you'll be using that purple mk6
and champy is expensive in gear lab
Realistically pilica, we need to see if the mats justify getting an MK7
Any changes should I do?
Cos sth tells me 457 will likely still be more valuable
...yes upgrade the gear to +10
Pls don't use UR ordnance mats 
No reason not to upgrade the 406mk6 to +10
what content is t his ?
You are almost certainly right
I wouldn't be surprised if the cost is eye-wateringly high, and far beyond beginners or even intermediate players
Merely jesting there 
Mk7 is a better Mk6
457 is somewhat unique
There is no such thing as general
Yeah that's my thought
Is it gonna be another gold diver situation?
We will find out soon I suppose
12 is easy enough for whatever but you need to enhance the gear
I just unga bunga using one fleet till world 12, so just don't know what I'm doing
Does the gear you want even conflict?
It's time to build a second fleet soon then...
Can someone do the math on the likelihood of NOT pulling Fleuret after 300 builds?
Cl and dd guns are basically free beer
goldiver is weird because Tenrai came out quite a bit later after it so there was a period of time where people actually maxed some of them
relateble
What's the pull rate for Fleuret even
What does that mean, I honestly don't know what to use
2.5%
Elite, so 2.5%
But as we all know, Elites are the real URs
5.0278777504992053384298794620147e-4
It shd be
0.975^300
So that's like
0.00005 ?
You need materials to craft anything like electronics for planes. Explosive for guns. They don't conflict
0.05%
Ok math fail on my end whoops
it's not zero 
Yeah it's improbable
I think I have enough for guns since I never used it, as for plane I already crafted Firecrest
It just happened, that's why I'm asking -.-
It do be like that
nice coping mechanism
somethingsomething 380+ pulls for Suzutsuki
I got 3 Eugen mu from gacha and no formu so...
Can't say I don't relate
That's just how probability works
Luck be like 
Where to farm on w12 again
hmm so do i pick san diego or illustrious for my new comer reward 
12 1 or 12 4
12-4 if you can manage it
anywhere you're comfortable, some prefer 12-1 some prefer 12-4
I barely defeat 12-4 with one fleet
... there's always the option of just waiting
Do you have Hood and Enty?
Oh right you're on 1 fleet
I'll do 12-1 then
Then ig it's time to make a 2nd fleer
Then that changes things
This is the time you stop and raise a second fleet in 12-1

As for what to raise
🧵 time
12-1 is a good place to start dragging ships along if you have it on safe
Thankies
if you're not sure about the ship you can pump up with XP packs first
yeah
alr have a few copies of san diego too if that changes anything
What do you have for options in the medal shop this month?
why New Wifey sounds so familiar to me? Is there any chance your Enterprise is called Wifey?
Then get Lusty
why do some research options have this on the top right?
okie 
It's to let you know you're going to get additional bps from your catchup selection I think
How does Foch meta fair?
Meh like the other purple metas
oh thank you 
it just means that's the season that you choose for focus
because the one you choose for focus is guaranteed at least 3 of 5
and VI and IV looks similar enough
Hey so I haven’t played the game in about 2 years, I know a lot has changed but is there a summary haha?
i just got back into it as well xD
w13hm
w15
new ships, new gear, perma urs, pr5 and 6
rotating cms
same old stuff otherwise
catchup is whatever you picked and it shows next to your focus below
pickup is the series you're focusing
lol I lost my account but shoutout to yostar customer service for getting it back for me
She's the reason I played this game in the first place
Ty!
Ouuu ty 
who can i equip this on?
for ap
Two questions: first is the only way to buy gems to use the Apple Store or Google store? Is there no site that you can direct buy from the publisher?
Can guam gun be better than azuma gun on light or no 
theres 3rd party sites, idr know em
how do you guys burn ap in opsi when you are done with everything
Not that we know of at least 
We just grind C5 zones
are c5 better than c6?
Yep
Yes
You can grind more C5 compared to more C6 iirc
oh I see
how do i filter for CB in dock cause i cant find any ships that can equip it
The cat spawn rate in C6 isn't high enough to justify grinding it over C5
theres no CB filter ingame unfortunetly
No way to
They're all under CA filter
what do you buy from cats tho
Not Akashi
We're talking about meowfficer nodes
ooh
Those can give gold upgrade mats
I am missing like 9 plane upgrade blueprints and 9 plane UR blueprints, no idea if I can grind it somehow lmao
Okay thanks! Second question: I received a ton of gear advice but still cannot clear SP with my lone fleet. Someone suggested splitting the fleet with a few slightly underleved ships so that I can preserve ammo to have full damage against boss?
Not for damage, at least
I do know against some light bosses, though, some people like to keep an AP gun on Agir just to keep her DMG RED for tanking purposes
in a proper wyvern rush you are guaranteed 9 generics by month 2
I am a bit lost what to get here
Depends on how well geared said ships are
i dont think i have any ships that can equip it
I mean, they're all rainbows so...
Typically the UR stuff first then you can clear out the shops assuming u grind opsi throughout the month
lol ok probs not then
You have more than enough tokens by the end of the month to clear out everything ngl 
are the ? mark blueprints for every type of gear?
those are generics/selectors yes
depot > item
where will i use independence?
I think the answer is rainbow research gear eg 457 and 234
oh ok these are specific gear stuff I see, ty
hey, i'm putting together fleets for w15, and All of the recommended fleets have Aquila in them I ended up missing her when she last was available. Who would be a good substitution? I was thinking Perseus since she's also got healing in her kit.
volga
She's in fleet 2
volga and cope on boss
then move volga from fleet 2
u can give boss indep or painleve on 15-4, mobbing is tougher
Anytime u need a CV mobber tbh, she's really good in w13 and above usually
Anyone know what the new gear cost to make?
@umbral ridge No off topic images in here please, thank you
wait for datamine 
Ok
Where can we obtain the exp pack for research ship?
Whats the preliminary thoughts on Alsace? I know mogador is kinda meh currently
Cruise missions and the starter missions(i forgot what they're actually called)
Oo thery are very rare noted
pretty standard powercreep BB, does better on shorter fights and is generally worse on long shit (basically just CM)
moga isn't meh
a few here we are using her and is pretty noice
was meh when was bugged and killed herself
Thats what i was referring to.
When do you usually use your exp pack for research ship?
you don't, always convert them to prototype cores
It's recommended that you don't use them for exp and analyze them to get protocore to buy yourself gear
Oo noted, where I convert them
depot
is the meta dock and separate dock space for meta ships thing out yet?
Yup
Came out the same time Alsace event dropped
what, i am definetly outdated
is Complier's armor = Medium or Heavy?
Do I need to purchase the PR6 ticket thingy on current event? eventho I already have enough for fatesim all of PR6 ships
heavy
Like what to do with the excess
turned into protocore to buy gears
just save enough for future fate simulation, once you have enough for that you can just convert to protocore
By future you mean pr7? We can use current ticket to convert into the next season ticket?
no
future fate simulation 
they meant current unreleased pr6 fate sims which u already have accounted for
that was just a case of EN from soup
i did say if you had enough just convert to protocore
👍
if you want some protocore then farm some
spec cores?
Do I want to exchange for the 2nd Morgaydor in shop?
if u care about a UR bulin
If you have enough currency to buy those Ur bulins, then why bother grinding event currency to buy mogador
But if not, definitely buy mog
to catch up on UR bulins for future URs is basically the only reason
but thats a p good reason honestly
even if you have the spec core to afford UR Bullins, saving on one is still very nice
Speaking of Mogador, if I exchange her in the event menu, it would be the same as buying her in the event shop right?
yes
Oh, I hab enuf currency to buy dozens of UR bulins straight from shop
Ok, thanks
Then grind the event currency for else
saving one bulin is never a bad idea really
I got over 40k for Ur bulin, but never bought one if there's no ur to LB
Yea good idea ig. Since we only got max 15 from monthly every year but now we prolly gonna get 2 URs every UR events moving forward
Gotta keep the dock empty
Hi everyone
Henlo
I rather doubt that, at best every other UR event
Is new jersey gun coming to gear lab?
Which ones better buying a dorm slot 800 or the 4th skill train slot
yes
Wow that's nice
not the 4th tactical classroom slot that's for certain
Nice, I've made a gud choice then, but why not the skill slot
Is it the best BB gun for general use
People use moar than 2?
because all it does is eat skill books faster in the long run
I definitely yes, I bought it years ago
Lol i guess
Idk my goal is max lv all the skills on all ships
it loses value fast
general use isn't really an applicable term given gear is always situatioal
I think my 2 slots are mostly vacant instead of occupied most of the time coz dunno who to lvl skill anymoar except when new UR release like right now
So what?
I have too many skill books, like thousand of those purple ones
brainless is more like it. general is probably safer ap
it's the best HE ~20 second BB gun
U can craft them to yellow ones
Does anyone know any fleet building guides? I'm not the best at building fleet combos and any help would be much appreciated
No need, I got hundreds of the gold ones lmao
So it is the the best for everything?
Thank you, I really appreciate the help
brainless means not best. if gear is too complicated then put it on and never take it off but definitely not best
So what is the best BB gun?
no such thing
gear is situational
case-by-case basis 
so there's no best in slot for really anything, this isn't an MMO
How is kazagumo? Just got her
I see
best ARA and IJN so she can help proc Shinano's buffs
it isn't?
She better than Tashkent?
she's more useful
Also when should I start worrying abt 3rd fleet
She is more torpedo based than tashkent imo
random question guys - Does anyone know what these hearts popping up mean?
It only does for Monarch as far as I can tell, and it doesn't matter if she's Flagship or not. She IS at 100 affinity but not Oathed.
Essex, Unzen and Agir are oathed. Unicorn and Ayanami are NOT oathed but are 100 Affinity...
Not sure why Monarch is getting the hearts.
when you start specializing more in OpSi
I see ty
something something received a lot of affinity probably maybe possibly i don't think anyone knows
xD fair enough - Maybe Monarch just REALLY loves me or something and I should just oath her like I should've done ages ago
Maybe she's the 1st secretary slot... I know Essex and Littorio are my other secretary slots but it migth be cause she's 1st sec. slot
Ah yes, that's probably why.
oh wait I did oath her last week that's right

Secretary bug AFAIK
hearts mean the ship got affinity, the others are capped
Is NJay gun wurf to craft moar?
thanks 🙂
mby wurf to have 3 njay guns
NJay gun is cracked af
But Bizwei/Nun + IJN CVs still BiS backline vs Light, no?
depends on light boss but for opsi its kear/york + implac/enty/bz
Oh yea forgor Seggstown exist
whats the fastest way to farm gear lab materials
the only way is to grind Operation Siren
anything specifically within opsi
everything really
grind everything or bust really
the ur design is always in the next cat or abyssal, some gatcha lover probably
should i grind for this rn?
yes
if you mean by grind for this rn you get the 3 ur design plans first so that you can buy this then yes
what about dis cause idk how to get da purple things for dem
Strongholds are your main source for those
how i find them
they're the big swirly red nodes
eliminate all funny symbols on the map
ok
~~walks into a stronghold with 0 adapt
~~
you want to try to buy out 4-5 items from every shop every reset period to guarantee best results. maybe 5-6 if you missed a cycle already
i advise you start with tunings 
or another way. those items WILL come back as long as you buy everything else(5 or 6 is enough. don't actually need to buy 8)
Hi guys, may I ask how long does it take for you to complete an event (Huge one, like Light of the Martyrium or Snowrealm Peregrination) to unlock all the stories? I'm too lazy to complete 12+ stages and each have to clear each twice
is hoods unique augment a big buff?
6 stages, 7 if you count sp
Dude shop cycles aren't a thing anymore
they are if ure in ur first opsi month
maybe 6 to 8 hours? me 🐌
like, how many hours... I come here from Blue Archive and Genshin.. and i swear it's longgg
you don't need to do normal which cuts it by 40% maybe
... yeah. Actually. That's the old layout.
so question... right now im using my alsace whos already 120 and she keeps getting MVP and gets the bonus. is it worth it to sub her out to reduce xp waste?
@raw swift that's like screen time for me. if i do anything distracting like watch hockey, arguehelp on discord it will take even longer. The bulk is D maps at maybe 60%. 30% for c, 10% for sp because it smushed your low cost fleet on first try
if you have other ships you need to level sure
Guess I should just watch people record stories on Youtube or read at wiki Memories 
alsace is still fine if shes below 125 threshhold since shes prob like ur highest 125 prio
Until I completed BA stories
thanks
rotate to boss
doesn't hurt to store 1m xp for 125
roger that boss
:).
Do you have like a question?


Since it seems the GitHub tier list hasn’t been updated, how do the new event ships place on it?
ask in their server
See #event-faq
event faq doesn't have tierlist
you need to actually go to their server for this info
ong
Ah I see, is there a link to their server?
Oo yep found it
Wrong channel mb
Hi, So I began to wonder if it is better to give her some luck or reload, I'm not an expert, so, what would be the best way to do it?
huh luck or reload ? wdym
Luck/reload in stats
how would u give her luck
just give her the typical Washing machine/steering and Toolbox
Also dont bother using Elite METAs
Is there no equipment that gives luck?
not any that are remotely worth considering on the regular
there's a few, but they're rare and not in significant enough quantity to matter
Oh i see ty
why don't use elite METAs 😭
because all of them are bad
Because 99% of the time they are complete dogshit outside of the times when they have good fleet tech
The only exception to this rule has been Fortune META in #pvp
I would like to try it anyway, if it doesn't work out it won't work out 
You're better off raising different ships than her
You cant even MLB Foch META yet
Give this a read too
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips
Right, I also don't have an eq at this point, but I wanted to ask how it looks with the build
standard CA loudout
yeet the blue steering for a toolbox
Well, i guess you use toolbox in most ships right?
i check this community tierlist, and toolbox is very common in the build
basically every vanguard wants one (With DDs wanting 2) a majority of the time
Wait, dd want 2?
yes
yes because they have alot higher EVA but low HP so the HP from toolboxes is more valueable than the EVA from Hydraulic steering
Who actually uses steering on a dd in the first place…
But there say "effect doesn't stack"
500 HP is still 500 HP
their skill effect doesnt but the 500 HP they give do
Oh, so hp is priority i see
if you have a 550 HP aux that's good that would be preferable but those are relatively few and far between
there is
There are a few dozen tool replacements
So thats all question what i have now sank you 
http://renhex.github.io/alft/81
https://renhex.github.io/alft/98
these are sample fleets in suchiguma's chap 15 tier list excel. i'm not sure i understand why first fleet, and second fleet vanguard, have same ships but equips differ?
one is more budget than the other, among other things
is musashi oath skin also gonna be static?
Budget with 12 flaps 
people like their flapjack too much
damn i thought it was gonna move cuz it moved in trailer 
foch meta should have very low hp. she's never going to be able to be a top tier tank. not even a mid. one of the least tanky ships around
I've said they're overrated since day 1, ppl really fell for the cn crap
but some things are just swapped around. like guam secondary is twin130 and sandy primary is 100kai, and the other guam secondary is 100kai and sandy primary is twin130
They are 500 gem skins, what do you expect?
i just asked cuz the thing in animation was moving thats all ¯_(ツ)_/¯
i mean i never went on the flapjack either, my support is fully fw190 and i still cleared, but w/e if people find more success then it fine
but 12 flapjack is not "budget"
one's a 3 star, the other's just normal clear
I found full flaps was much worse than mixed
I said "more budget", relative
stagger as usual
Tfw the flaps cost more than a set of rainbow gear
What’s a good team for Shinano+Hakuryuu?
for what content
I am NOT denying this at all, I realize that I may throw materials down the drain, but anyway I would like to make such a meta team and see how it will perform, if it goes very badly I will change and try something else, maybe some of you say that I am stupid, but I have fun experimenting with it, not playing with the designated setup you know equipment is another matter and about that I have zero idea, but that's the point of games, to have fun with it, right?
Heavily content dependent
OpSi
if i follow one of those sample fleets would i need a lot of tech?
I don't have an issue with her. I believe I was the first to say HP. I'm just pointing out why double eva isn't optimal for her
ngl if you're gonna experiment for the shits and giggles, do that after you actually have competent fleets built first so you're not wasting your time and most importantly wasting XP on ships you'll rarely use at all
tech will not play that big of a difference, just try and see what happens
read the additional text. tl;dr yes, maybe/no
And i thank you, and other members for helping me out with eq, cuz its hard for me choose what is the Best for this Type of ship 
is there perhaps a german player thats willing to help someone who hasnt played for 2 years+?
like as in faction fleet BS?
Or are you looking for actual german people?
hes looking for wows players
are there any consistent substitutes for jda?
In what context
well someone whos german (english is fine to but maybe in a discord call my german works better) its just i need someone to give me a bit time to look over my fleets and dock and help me with the steps to take next
campaign or pure tankiness?
in the w15, more specifically the sample fleets from above
#gameplay-help message
There's no ship that rly does the same as JdA afaik
there's prob a dedicated german server in #international-port idk
Otherwise if you're fine with english, post your dock in a thread here
Ancho cope
no, i don't think there's any consistent vanguard shielder as her
Kinda depends on the fleet, for 15 if It depends on jda it's likely to lack heals
JdA not really hard to get anyways, either grind Skybound or get her from the medal shop
Might just need to rebuild the fleet without her
Call 
Just share your fleets and dock in a thread and we will help you
no one here does voice calls for this type of stuff
yeah it's not terribly difficult to get jda just will take me a while so was wondering if i could switch it out. i guess i'll just grind it
thx ima try the international port and if not there i make a thread
what about video call?
Sorry I only take vrchatters
what about omegle
what should i get here? i already crafted a triple 406
2 more triple 406/50 MLE then the rainbow plane
where is this comes from? it just pop up on my mail
you gave Akashi enough headpats
its from akashi
It's gifts from Akashi cuz you started her questline by tapping her often enough
the difference between these two fleets like in the command is that the 2nd one is intended to support the first one and only fight 2nd boss therefore xfleets like percy and indep while first one is standard as in boss fights 1 + 3
and also means u would run the first one except on 15-4
should i? its always below the triple 406 mk6 tho?
what does that even mean
if you're referring to how they're ordered on ECTL, read the gear notes
ok now?
sorry could you put it a bit simpler?
for a start, higher doesn't automatically mean better on the ECTL
it means less likely to catastrophically fail in any given scenario
gear, especially for main fleets is situational, the gear you should use depends on the context and the Champaign gun is used a lot in the context of late-game bossing against medium and heavy armor
triple 406/50 mle is the best gun for anti medium/heavy armor bossing (especially when syncing your BB together and to helena's scan) u want 3 cuz for certain bosses and in OpSi u will run 3 BBs together
15-4 has 3 bosses and u need to rotate tactical analysis debuff
that means a fleet has to fight first and 3rd(final) boss and a fleet 2nd
the 2nd boss is easy
and theres an ammo nodes that means u can fight both bosses with mob and stack the broken combo sushi aql + guam laffey and then just let em fight everything and put crossfleets on the 2nd and make it good enough to clear 2nd boss
but this only works on -4 since ooa will hurt too much and the battles are tougher esp 15-2, so for 15-1 - 15-3 just use standard fleets aka alft 81
what about 15-2?
so should i stack sushi aql guam laffi on my boss fleet for 15-2?
not quite
the boss is a BB
15-2 it's better to just DPS race the boss
trying to heal through it doesn't really work out
alright guess imma craft 2 more
it's the closest an AL player will get to the feeling of being dev struck
gl with that. won't happen anytime soon
?
you can only buy 20 a month and you need 25
so for 15-2 boss what would that look like? bz with 2 boss CV?
use fleets from alft 81
@meager gyro best thing to do is to just get 20 series III BP for the champy gun (406/50 mle) and use the excess for the tenrai
so no need to wait till u get all 3 guns
with rookie missions and cruise pass and catchup conversion to protocore u will get enough
if u want to be safe keep 300 for next month
so 81 for 15-1, 15-2, 15-3, and 98 for 15-4?
btw arent all these protocore data things finite? since you only get them from the rookie mission?
not really
you can also get them from converting Blueprints for PR Ships after they're dev 30
rookie missions are not the only source
though they are generally the biggest source of them yes
they're very limited early on but not finite
i got 910 rn after buying 20 prints
read this https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/research#catch-up_min_max
if u dont waste your catchup u will have enough for everything important/relevant in that shop
imo dont use series 1-3 catchup and save it for protocore.
only get FdG catchup for herself and then move on to series 4 catchup
should i buy this? i already got 11 prints for this
not a high prio
that's only mainly used in OpSi CV boss comps
Yes
what type of armor does souryuu meta have?
Medium
u get enough when u research series 4. which u should have focus on
ty 👍
is NJ not good for w15?
she's good, but there's better options
she worked well for me 
thanks
She's fine as a poverty option
I dont have Musashi, Vanguard or YT2, so im having a hard time trying to find replacements
Just let subs carry you
i was running uni alsace aquila guam shimanto laffey 2 for mob, which works
does anyone know stats on the new DD main gun announced for JP?
just about any of the UR BBs can sub for Musashi and Vanguard,
Indpendence for Yorktown 2, etc
prob is my boss fleet just melts
tune back in like 11 hours when the datamine is out
speaking of which, Breguets might be coming to the core shop soon
~~I can finally recc them without hesitation ~~
oh hell yeah
also, Raid events will not get reruns probably
curious what they're adding to the core shop, it's left ambiguous, curious if the CN notes have anything 
could imagine it'd be the feather, breguet, or something else entirely 
have I been sleeping on breguets? I thought VIT-2's were better
breguets have passive intercept
Essentially Wyverns at home
Breguet is baby wyvern essentially
so vit-2's don't passive intercept?
well, i guess I'll go breguets instead of vit-2 for general use when I run out of wyverns then.
thankfully I haven't spent any gold plates on vit-2 yet
Planes are usually 800 Core Data 
are there any parallel tbs you’d spend gold plates on 
wyverns....
why tho
cause only the best for unicorn
Hi ,i GOT this wtf ,just wanted a New ship ,what Can i do now ?
same as any other ship
use for limit break, or retrire for medals, or keep for fleet power flexing and outfit displaying
use them to limit break the first copy of Alsace
ok ok , wtf this luck 2 in a row
I don’t see the benefit of using 360 gold plates on a wyvern cheeky when does wows trade in start 
I may have done it long time ago when there was a CV on my pvp team, and like... sweaty pvp is my thing
I don't remember
is wows trade in an Azur Lane cross over thing, or a separate game topic entirely?
what
if you discussing something that's not in al, it goes to off topic
because crossover in wows has nothing to do with al at all it just commander and ships
AL gets wows ships for PR and wows gets AL ships and commanders. That’s the extent of the collabs nothing more
I'm ready for the next collab event
im a bit of a turtle, but is mogador still a suicide ship?
no
no
they updated her
Do we think Mogador is "good" now, or is the jury still out?
gun focused shima
worst UR afaik
her damage is plymouth tier at minimum
Does her support make much of a difference?
and if you lack bis zwei, she is competitive with hinden
she IS tankier than shima admittedly
I wish she was a helena replacement, but she wasn't.
Yeah the gacha ones
absolutely not the worst
she wasn't "gacha" but she isn't a retrofit or research ship either.
you could make a similar case for Shimakaze
but ultimately, how do you define "worse"?
not when Shimakaze does worse on average on auto, and Kronshtadt being redundant af
Shima ALSO has the redundancy issue
Thanks to Unzen
Shima admittedly will get away with uses for Ari meta... but that's like 1 case
I didn't even particularly like Shima for Arizona META, compared to Laffey 2 anyway
what do you think is the most important fleet tech for vanguard and for which hull class first?
CA evasion first for sure
there are very few admittedly
otherwise hmmmmmm
CA torp for Unzen and DD FP for DDG/Mog/Laff? 
fp for all
is FP for CL for plymouth important?
FP
is fleet tech used in pvp?
fp always good
no
Who's a better plane swatter, Sandy or Shimanto? They seem to go toe-to-toe
Shimanto is better as a ship, sandy has better fleet AA contribution
And if Shiman has her gun? Or does she lose way too much damage to be worth it
what do i use the iron orthodoxy development pack for?
is "hit" for CL good fleet tech to target, or no?
The what
frontliners have WAY too much hit
Shimanto is assumed to have her gun if you're using her for AA in campaign
did u max fp already?
you mean the Iris tech box?
You uh
open it if you need french gear
Help me build 2(3) teams with these ships.
there is an argument to be made that she would prefer to end the battles faster so...
no
its lower prio, i would rld before hit either way
they are not in dire need of hit anyways....
the tech stats you grind when there's nothing else
ok got it thanks guys.
I'm guessing you wouldn't spend cogs on vanguard FP prior to finishing BB FP and CV AVI, right?
I wouldn't
I would have enough cogs
is CA torp worth working on?
I would say all tech is worth working on eventually
mby after fp,rld and hit
i mean for unzen, is it more import than fp?
are there any ships worth getting from the medal shop if I have enterprise and hood mlb already
Whats the best way to get more gear?
or do I just spend on bulins and blueprints
idk for unzen, prob depends on fight and armor shes fighting but i wouldnt center my tech farm around 1 ship
gear box i think for newbie u can get lots of purpol and gold gear pretty easily
and do event will be reallly goooood way to get OP gear , just buy the UR gun at event shop
My luck suck so i rarely get pupl, and even then its gonna be something stupid like airplanes
Hi, I've just come back to the game after a long, long hiatus, and I'd like to ask a few questions since I'm feeling out of the loop now:
- What's the best way to farm gold?
- Is there any updated site/guide for gear? I assume there's a lot of new gear and I'm not sure what things I should be aiming for.
- How long does it usually take for shipgirls to get a rerun? I've seen many awesome ones I've missed
hmm try get some point at event and buy the T4 gear box at the event shop
unzen benefits enourmously from more torp
- w12+ or event rn if u still need shop stuff or milestones
- sams guide in /guide
- around 2 years
its pretty cheap and T4 gear box guarantee give u atleast purpol gear
bruh don't buy boxes
Are breguets good?
I see, thank you very much! ^^
they're decent
doing research, starting operation siren
before that, you basically only have purple and whatever else boxes you get for free
me reading "around 2 years": 
From the crystal event rhing? One where u can buy mogador and that other woman?
yea
I already did, got like 3 gold, 2 of them AA one plane

its pretty good tho imo specially for newbie that dont even have purple gear
it isn't

new players can barely even grind the event early on
idk why but samheart lists tech boxes as higher priority
Which part of operation siren actually gives you the gear? I've been doing some and haven't gotten any
why would you waste what little event currency you have on tech boxes
It's good if you can spare the currency
is fdg, indep, uni fine for opsi mob fleet?
after you obtained all the meta crystals for a meta ship, and let's say you obtain her again (e.g. meta bearn), do you get any compensation or no?
yes
it doesn't
you get mats to craft gear in the gear lab
the getting material then turn in to gearlab gear part
META Shop currency
You get 10 meta shop currency for gold and 4 for elite presumably
opsi gives you the materials that you use in the gear lab to build gear.
Oh
Chapayev is worth investing into?
Well thats gonna take a while my flet suck
it depends
ah, thanks
it depends on how hard they grind lol
What you mean?
ya and i ugess this event is longer?
depends on what other ships you have
depends on your other options, where you are, and bullins
my goal is 100k event currency so i can buy the second moga (no SP btw)

with the exceptions of no lifers
most players do not even go above 60-70k...
correction, most players don't even go above 30k
Its 23 day event
the issue is more so, is it even worth it?
ender, what's your actual issue about tech box when they already got mogador and the gear

welll i kinda just figured that d3 is more efficient to farm and its my only oil capped stage so might as well farm it :c
You should get gear skin boxes 
if i was at like w12, id probably be farming that
it's literally just better than other option for new player
i didn't see it mentioned that he has even bought mog and the gun
oh
unless it was mentioned in a prior conversation 
if you don't need excessive xp and coin then event is great. free stuff good
Mog and weapon, but do they have Bearn?
hmm i think its not that hard tho ? so we have 8 day left huh
daily quest give u 750 per day
win normal stage once per day each that give x3 reward give (30+40+50+60+70+80) * 3 =990
so from daily alone u get (750+990) * 8 (since its 8 day left ) = 13920
from first time clear mission = 200+400+600+400+600+800 = 3000
from one time mission = 500+1500+3000= 5000
soo 13920+3000+5000 = 21920
i read back, and no ender is right. You don't go for tech box unless you already have event gear and bearn ig
after getting those then you can go get tech box
new players aren't clearing SP
heck, depending on how new they are they may not be able to do event stages at all
And cogs, and prints, and...
new players doesn't prio cogs
Well they should
having your ship geared up is better than waiting for 105
its just login once a day , do 7,5 battle per day , do daily mission
priority pls, like that's why sam wrote "new player"
I don't really agree 
so you are thinking having ship gearless is better than not having cogs for 105?
so if i have bearn meta, i don't need to buy the one in the shop for 8k right
Buying T4 is rather useless over just T3 you get everywhere
how do you plan on mlb?
for you as a already played the game for a long time yeah
uhh crystals? idk i need to look into how METAs work
META shop
i only have 909 and never bought anything. a newb will have 0?
or farm b3/d3 and hope u get lucky 
240 one time + 62 a month. so no bearn for 2 months if you don't buy oh geez how many are locked behind harbiter
bearn can be farmed in B3 ?
yea
2 months is better than UR 
shikanoko nokonoko koshitantan

But if you don't have the useless shop currency the crystals are 2k in store... NEVER buy the original if you got her
it doesnt hurt to skip bearn meta right? i want to buy the 2nd mogador
if you don't mind waiting for her return idk when then sure
Get one copy of bearn meta but you can skip duplicates and the crystals
im not sure if i will have enough event currency on the last day to buy the 2nd mogador and bearn meta
2nd mog isnt gonna do much
a ur bulin 😭
i need like 12 UR bulins lol
welcome to timegated content
Bearn meta can always spook you before the end of event so keep grinding and decide next week
what event points are you at right now?
this is better
can u do d3? sp?
yes
u will be fine then , just use x2 efficiency if u dont have much time to play and farm d3
well to quote unique: a snail in ur hand is better than two in the grass or something
oh right i forgor high eff tickets
i have 300 of those (now it's ships' morale battle ig
)
do get the equips first before dupe if you haven't gotten them yet
So maybe doing CA torp grind would pay dividends on Unzen?
evasion first tho
is agir with HE gun still good as a tank, or should I try my best to get normal/ap gun for the damage reduction from skill
evasion is done, only have Brennus to do
personally I would get bearn meta if low effort account 
Agir good
You can always grind more PR4 to make her gun if you really really need the AP
the dr from the ap gun is what sets her apart from the rest
you're going to switch to 234 most likely
fyi im at w15-1 i dont know if bearn meta would help at this point, is she that strong?
no but i don't see mogii helping either
but but... rainbow ship...
rainbow does not necessarily mean good
There is a site where i can see the drop table of event stage?
the wiki
in the case of mogador, she simply does not cater to the needs of w15
which is to counter planes
I see only champagne map not event...
Can I fix the time in the stand by screen? It’s not correct.
Light of the Martyrium is a major Iris Libre and Vichya Dominion-themed event featuring six new shipgirls, the second to include two Ultra Rare ships Alsace and Mogador, and the third event to feature an event gacha META shipgirl. A total of eight new Summer-themed skins have been added, and a new Iris Orthodoxy furniture set and new equipment ...
no
game uses server time
Oof
it's easy to forget
that EN is the only server with players in multiple timezones...
Easy fix, move to same time zone that game server is in...
wiki 🐌 known issue but again in datamine 📌
What‘s the difference with each server? Can I just switch between them?
region, no. server, maybe?
different servers = different account
actually server is basically not much different than region
So I would loose my content if I switch the server
yeah but u can back to ur old server
lose is excessive. you can have alts on multiple servers
hmm, so if I'm looking for anti light; I should probably switch to a different unit then
I‘m currently in Avrora. Do we have a European server
probably
all 6 servers in EN are in the same place
why is this one red???
there is no "european" or "american" server
we have CN, JP, TW, KR and Global/EN for everyone else
idk go ask the devs
agir isnt doing much damage regardless of what you give her
TIL kr has a server
like is it different from the others or nah cause im kinda new to game
shes mainly an ab bot that can tank
how about the server release date ? i see some RNG game make new server like ... once every some day to bait new player that want to take top rank 
new servers aren't dropped often and when they do they're announced in advance
they differ sure, but none of them are very new at this point
lil enty is how old at this point?
the last new server on EN was Little Enterprise last year
amagi was the one before lil enty
and amagi was like.... 4-5 years ago
danger will robinson, danger
we have gear, but not ships yet.
those are a different kind of coordinate logger that gives acess to abyssal zones
Also imo if you're still relatively fresh, dont focus on opsi right now, you have more higher priorities than that like pushing to W9
dayum
in world 10
one new server in 3-4 year 
been playing for mabe 4-6 weeks
Ah I see.
opsi and pushing campaign are mutually exclusive
The wiki say nothing about the ship drop’table... there is no place tu found this info?
my goal is to collect all ships on all servers 
datamine pin...
none, I could share my own screen shot
still a bit fresh
build up two good fleets with sufficent gear then you can start doing basic opsi
k
But it’s weird that they don’t use the time from the smartphone
wait nevermind ship drop. not in datamine hmm
nah al is still on old tech
and i hate the maintenance time
And?
the CN/JP devs didn't design the system with phone time in mind
yeah, for somereason wiki and datamine didn't include ships
That’s kind of sad
I think it's probably that no ship worth talking about is in C1-D2, and that D3 has baracuda and bearn meta crystals, so just farm D3
a lot of tech stopped supporting dls
why do the vanguard's equipped torps just phase through the boss???? is this actually intended? barrage and torp bombers still hit...
Did you actually aim well and hit the boss?
yes
ok no ship and for the gear where i fount the info pin talk only about event ship
skill issue
Sup guys any gear and position suggestions for brenn and moga? Gonna start using them soon
You're using line torps, I think it's likely that you're just missing. Try with normal spread torps
the only notable drops are bearn meta and nelson on B3/D3
the rest are, well none of us have them so
i am not missing. i tested with many different torps
Brennus uses standard CA gear
Mog uses standard DD gear, with preference for the shop rainbow DD gun
and brennus would be main tank while Mog would be in the middle
doesn’t mog have the gear req
one piece of French gear
yeah
hence why i said preference for the shop rainbow DD gun... which is French
In the Map D3 of this event, that a Code that can be decrypted to NOURISH YOURSELF THEBOOM, any gameplay relevance to that? THEBOOM: This could reference an event, an upgrade, a special in-game item, or a ship with a powerful attack.

Anyone know what BB gear skin this is
You decrypted it wrong
hm, it seems the hitbox is nonsensically low and small then....
oh :c?
Copy that thanks, does moga also want those new torps?
mog just wants one piece of French gear
meh
those are more manual oriented
no need for those specifically
That's why i said you were probably missing ...
Coo thanks
you COULD use it for Mog if you're gonna throw the rainbow twin 138 on someone else
The vanguard's auto guns also aim at the center of the hitbox so pay attention to guns to know where torps should be manualed to
D3 map description, decrypted: ||nourish yourselves then bloom||
SP map description, decrypted: ||the noise of approaching mimic entities creeping and slithering creeping and slithering creeping and slithering||
what is the good one? any item relevance?
but uhhhhhhh
Besides maybe the DDG retros and Harbin, does anyone else even want the twin 138 more than Mog herself?
So kinda dumb question...my boss fleet consists of Ulrich, Alsace, New Jersey, Yuudachi, and Khron...Who would be recommened as the 3rd Vanguard and I'm debating on switching out NJ for Shinano or Unicorn...what the best option here?
well for what content
unicorn definitely does not want to be in a boss fleet so uh
Main Story, I'm trying to wrap up chapter 10
you are knowledgeable ! that item ! do it have any gameplay buff or anything usefull?
it just plays a MP4 file
i fail to understand that item
it needs to be asked
are any of these URs max limit broken
it does exactly as it says
second question then are all those URs actually MLB
i play muted .... my bad
Ulrich, NJ, and Khron are all MLB working on Shinano rn
so you throw out alsace then
then drop Alsace and don't use Shinano either
what's the best way to level up ships from low level? noshironis lv 42 but i wanna use her as main tank to get combat exp easier
XP packs
if u strong enough to farm d1 do d1 event i think
vanguard doesnt have any position that gets more XP like backline does with flagship
Best ways to grind lvls are XP packs, farming maps that have oil cap, and dorm
Ok, I think I have a few other ships that are MLB but I don't know who the best option would be to take her place
start a thread and post your dock then
apart from xp packs, im very low on em. i can put her thru d1 probably tho, tyty
dorm
What are good low oil teams or ships that are good for farming?
cassin
unless you're grinding something that doesnt have acess to oil cap
like pre-W9 or non-D map event stages
how about the 2-1 strat ? 
dogshit
dead
2-1 strat died many years ago
i see kimochi at youtube do 2-1 strat to farm cube and gem
I wanted to grind out the currency for the event to get everythi g
well rip
the d maps in events have oilcap
My bad NJ isn't MLB and Neither is Khron I was thinking of my other account >.<
he's an idiot and a late game player with literally nothing else to do among other things
/oilcap
I'll thread my dock in a moment
the method doesn't even work anymore
Ahhhh ok i see
well luckily i havnt tried it yet cuz im pushing event now
you are unironically better off spending the time used on 2-1 to instead idk
go mow your neighbour's lawn for 10 bucks
and buying gems with that


Sound files in the game are certainly not MP4, it's whatever criware uses
next time don't make hasty desicions based on 1 singular opinion
it is better to ask here and there for more confirmations
aye aye sir
to elaborate
but tbh i do the low oil strat a bit for event the first 4 normal map once a day to get x3 point
Dock Thread - VeeVali
that's fine
the 2-1 strat worked because you used to be able to get oil from scrapping ships
so you could grind there infinitely
that is no longer the case though
Dock threaded
2-1 is just worse than 2-4 anyways
eggs plain
Alrite this is cool right?
that's fine
what the priority to clear opsi for new player ? clearing the campaign asap ?
you can try wiki now 
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Light_of_the_Martyrium#D3-1
Mmh kinda ig
is d1 the best exp for the power level or is there a campaign level like 9-1 or higher or something that's doable for a lv60-ish noshiro (had some exp packs) that gives more exp per run?
when i want to use a cat as a fodder and then it tells me that it is in use somewhere
is there a button that let me unequip it from all slots or i have to remember in which missions it is used ? 
aight thankyou
D maps are about as efficent as W10 when it comes to XP
and its easier than w10
wow nice. guess i'll just autorepeat that for a while until she's lv100 and then do 12-4
probably hardest thing is getting access to st. pete so you can start reducing it's shop. remember you can bypass funny symbols and change to explorable
for mog aux gear just hp gear right? some use eva aux does that works too?
mog have high eva already she need hp
D3
a lot less eHp
it is a bad move
oh she can easily handle d3, plus with perseus there's zero risk
told ya 
Mogador eva gear for the additional FP 🧠
now we’re minmaxing damage 

ah yes, I would very much feel the 9 extra FP from a rudder by doing that
6
Rudder gives 2 sec invuln = infinite potential eHP 
latter
on development mission you can get 400 combat data pack per PR right?
Except PR1
why though?
never bothered counting that
Cuz you get 800 for PR1

shut up turtle stop deleting your messages
I didn’t tho
(It's a bug made a feature basically)
thorin are you deleting turtles messages
so no one have any clue for akagi-chan?
it only works for Normal akagi
i answered your question
You were already answered by cooper, only base Akagi
so i need 1500 data pack to get a full print of UR gear from the shop
what UR gear
tenrai 
sorry im french still dont understand what that even mean ^^
ur gear need 50 bp
Just use a dictionary tbh
you can google stuff you dont understand
thats what i do
Just be bilingual
I don't because I understand everything 🤓
akagi only
the BB gun
what BB gun
I like tenrai more than twin 457 
I think he's talking about Protocore 457
Thx 👍
combat data packs arent the only source for protocore
10rai > 4ad > 2in gun obviously
in game right? 
im not dantes
post dev30 prints right?
d30/fs5
Yeah, but why would you scrap your fs5 prints
because sometimes guild shop sells me one pr 1 bp 
5 Protocore 
can’t forget about the 10 protocore from guild rewards 
because i got 215 FdG for free in exchange for about 6000 protocore 
so are there actually caps on daily moucher and sp moucher?
what's moucher
