[icy mountain]

will probably improve my dmg in BB fleet in opsi

[eternal moth]

She serves the same role as Vanguard, as she makes the other 2 ships do more damage

I don't know at this point if her damage is low enough that another ship would be better though

[shell willow]

how do i decide who to put as flag in cv fleet? or is it boss dependant

[stark quiver]

doesnt matter right?

[eternal moth]

Shinano should be flag for her barrage, but it's such a small increase it doesn't realistically matter

[shell willow]

okay

[eternal moth]

She's also the tankiest, so may as well put her flag

[icy mountain]

i mean rather than putting nelson, hood, and bis1

cuz thats all the other BBs i got atm

no buffs whatsoever

[eternal moth]

Alsace, FdG, DoY sounds like a pretty good fleet to me, and will easily outdamage Nelson/Hood/Bis1. Bis1 doesn't belong in that fleet at all BTW

[strange sphinx]

how does 13-4 give coin per oil?

[knotty dome]

#gameplay-help message
in the pins

[icy mountain]

I just put something rather than nothing cuz i badly need a BB fleet in my opsi

but ill be able to fix it thanks

[eternal moth]

If nothing else, she'd replace Bisco

[icy mountain]

i shouldve done it sooner, i didnt know that doy was perma

[strange sphinx]

ah, I overestimate myself, I can't tell the calculations

[icy mountain]

should be good for a bb fleet till i get vanguard?

[hollow gust]

are you running three shot?

[icy mountain]

three shot?

Whats that?

[hollow gust]

pretty sure that timing doesnt work

[eternal moth]

You'd need to look at timings, and FdG is a serious pain in the ass to calculate

[icy mountain]

sad

[eternal moth]

Every other shot is faster than the one before it due to one of her skills, so you have to do 2 different calculations for her

[undone plover]

Just radar all three in opsi
Much less headache than checking the boss buffs

[icy mountain]

are the even and odd salvos rng?

[viscid swift]

read her skills

[eternal moth]

But DoY might need a faster gun to stay ahead. They aren't RNG, you just need to read her skills

[hollow gust]

pretty sure the usual comp is hsfcr two ur bb and doy 457

[icy mountain]

sadly i dont have 457

guess ill go with 410 kai

[eternal moth]

You can craft 457 in gear lab now too, if you have the mats

https://traneptora.com/azur-lane/cooldown/battleship/ You can use this to calculate shot timings

[hollow gust]

not how that works

[low juniper]

What BB guns are good for med bosses

[hollow gust]

Same as heavy

[undone plover]

Champy gun (pr3 triple 406/50 MLE)
Soy gun (406 mk1)
Flandre gun (pr6 380mm 1935 MLE)

All these sync to helena and are more or less sidegrades of each other

Otherwise u can also use pr2 twin 457 gun but it is more expensive and better used on mob fleets

[stark quiver]

when syncing with helena, would i need to use sg radar

[eternal moth]

You don't have to, but it's recommended. If not using SG radar, you can't use HPFCR either

[undone plover]

To avoid 20 second timer (like opsi debuffs) and if it can help get an extra salvo (like in 80 sec META fights) u can use hpfcr on BBs, and at that point u will also run sg radar on helena to make sure she syncs to the offset from the hpfcr

U can also just run hpfcr for the extra hit but if I am being honest I dont know where the extra hit is more useful than FP (and crit rate). Probably when running a low ACC BB or high evasion boss

[loud rover]

Would it be better to just do Plymouth catchup? Mine’s a d14 or 15

[stark quiver]

yes

[uncut oar]

are there any other content apart from METAs where using HPFCRs (almost) universally gives you an extra salvo?

[eternal moth]

HArbiters

[uncut oar]

nod

[agile sky]

Is it possible to 0% to 3* a hard stage in 2 run? I need 4 of the t3 retrofit rewards like yesterday and was wondering if it was possible since i have 1 stage that needs 1 run still.

[viscid swift]

yes

[eternal moth]

Enter stage, kill all ships except boss, exit, restart stage

[hollow gust]

you can 3 star in 1 run, just kill all, and dont kill boss

[eternal moth]

You don't need to 100% the stage to get 3*

[agile sky]

...!
Was just about to ask that lol

Thnx...this really helps alot!

[undone plover]

Do you actually need radar for 4 salvo arby? The fight is 90 seconds

[grand helm]

At what level will ships have the maximum potential enhancement exp? Is it 100 or does it scale up to 125?

[shell willow]

100

[grand helm]

Appreciate it

[final flint]

Which site can I go to see BB/CV barrage damage and properties?

[hollow gust]

wiki

[inland shoal]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/User:Riceist/BarrageDatamine

[hollow gust]

Cn wiki should have a better version too

[final flint]

Thanks

[sage nebula]

who wins in light dmg between mogador and tai yuan?

[hollow gust]

mog should win, could be wrong tho

[spice phoenix]

is this event even worth grinding after you get the improved mag torps?

[viscid swift]

Yes, I reccomend up to 45k

[gloomy epoch]

Anyone wanna link me their ch15-1 boss fleet and gear for auto? I can consistently get to the boss node but cant auto (or manual for that matter) for my life

[strange sphinx]

wew 13-4 done, should I upgrade my dock hmmmm

[hollow gust]

you arent copying meta fleet, show ur fleet in a thread and someone prob cheeky will fix it

[stark quiver]

Have you tried /w15 in bot spam

[hot bobcat]

Perfect, j already pre-selected roon

[gloomy epoch]

Here's my current boss fleet I'm trying to auto 15-1 with

it's based on this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CzakYRqMoI&t=0s

[viscid swift]

okay...
so what gear did you use

[eager mulch]

ew al ytuber

[viscid swift]

also redditor as well

[eager mulch]

gross

[hollow gust]

No redeeming qualities

[gloomy epoch]

srry had to go put it in the github real quick

[viscid swift]

oh boy there's a number of error here

[eager mulch]

you’d def want a fighter in yt2 slot 3

[forest palm]

if you're using Windows you can screen grab with Win + Shift + S, and just paste to discord

[gloomy epoch]

oh also they are lvl125s

[eager mulch]

quint mags, azuma gun,

[viscid swift]

were you even running CVs in the support fleet though, there's quite a number of mistakes here but not bad enough for it to fail 15-1 I wouldn't think

[hollow gust]

My implacable is perma support fleet

[viscid swift]

but anyway, quint mags on San Diego, BTD Destroyer, and Azuma gun and Stagg on Agir go right off the bat

NJ's aux gun could also be better

[gloomy epoch]

ya im legit clueless on gear and I used to rely on the azur lane community tier list

but i think for ch 15 cant really brute force, actually need optimized gear

[hollow gust]

I don't see the quint gold mags in ectl

[eager mulch]

ECTL does not recommend the use of gold quint mags or btd destroyer

[viscid swift]

just start a thread and post your dock at this point

[hollow gust]

Oops , that was for another thing

[gloomy epoch]

I'm pretty sure I just plugged something in there cuz the rainbow gun for SD was taken by another ship

oh ya agir nabbed it but i'll switch it back

[worldly pewter]

is that enough AA ?

[hollow gust]

Should be fine

[gloomy epoch]

so shd I just follow the gear in ECTL still for ch15? I obv have a moshposh of things from chasing diff guides

[viscid swift]

no

like I said start a thread and post your dock, we'll get your sorted there
I rather you're ready to tackle W15 at this point in time though

[hollow gust]

If you followed the ectl correctly you should be fine but you aren't

Also I'm 99% sure suchiguma mentioned implacable is for support fleet

[gloomy epoch]

ch 15 / gear help :)

[tranquil saffron]

If your tank dies, which position takes the majority of the damage?
Is it the off tank or the middle

[stark quiver]

Middle I think

[eternal moth]

Middle, yeah

It takes the least damage as long as the tank is alive, though

[stark quiver]

Actually, if you’re on auto most of the time is middle, if manual, it’s kinda how you play

I mean if you are gonna keep pulling your fleet back, then obviously off tank gonna take the hits

[eternal moth]

It doesn't matter if you're manual or auto. If your tank dies, who's in front?

[hollow gust]

Is this the return of the coping that offtank tanks the most

[inland shoal]

I mean on manual you can certainly make offtank tank more, it's really awkward tho
Also this meta can randomly make your offtank tank more...though sometimes it nabs mid too

[hollow gust]

Nah it was a comment of when gph was on a weird phase that believed that main tank didn't take the most damage

[eternal moth]

It's possible there are times they don't just because they tend to have dodge skills, but yeah, they definitely should be

[glossy spear]

Hi I am new to the game and I was wondering which ship was the best one out of the three starter options?

[eternal moth]

Whoever you like the looks of most

[glossy spear]

i see

[eternal moth]

You can get all 3 as drops, so it doesn't really matter overall

[glossy spear]

oh ok thanks ill pick the one i like best

[viscid swift]

you might also wanna give that a read https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips

[glossy spear]

ok thanks

[quartz wyvern]

So 2x research next week?

And FS isn't released on previous seasons' ships when new seasons are launched?

[viscid swift]

PR7 drops this week not next week

[forest palm]

just realized Daisen is a horse

[viscid swift]

and no, PR6 PR fate sims should drop a month later during the EN Anni

[whole crypt]

got to ride that uma wave somehow

[whole crypt]

if that goes well this is the third year that's happening?

[viscid swift]

yes

[whole crypt]

so if that holds up then we basically have a fixed schedule then

[glossy spear]

wait so according to the guide i should buy unicorn, helena, portland, and pennsylavia from the guild shop right away?

[whole crypt]

Portland you get for free from clearing 2-1 so up to you whether you need to get that one

[glossy spear]

oh ok ill just get the other three then

[whole crypt]

you start with enough guild coins for all of them, but you'll probably want to join a guild ASAP to improve your guild coin income

the coins can be used to buy other good stuff from guild shop, and besides that you can also pick up dupes for LBing those ships, in case you don't have enough bulins

[vestal thistle]

How good is rupprecht

[glossy spear]

What is LBing?

[viscid swift]

okay, but being an SR BB she get's overshadowed completely by UR BBs

[hollow gust]

By the time you make her work, you should have better stuff already

[warm niche]

hey is there a way to get rid of characters that I dont need?

[vestal thistle]

Does anyone find a use for her

[stark quiver]

turn them to

or enhance

[forest palm]

Ruppretch is pretty generic, so no, she's a strong SSR BB with little substance in a hull type that is overcrowed

[warm niche]

how do i turn them into medals?

[stark quiver]

retire them

[whole crypt]

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

[glossy spear]

Oh limiting breaking thanks

[whole crypt]

if you absolutely cannot buy more space or you're just getting rid of dupes/fodder the retire menu is under build

[whole crypt]

if you consider BCs independent of BBs then the class isn't that overcrowded... it's just that in any situation where you're forced to use a BC you don't need Rupp either

[warm niche]

ok thank yall sm!

that's morale

What's the best load out for San Diego for AA

[keen sable]

sexy bofors

[summer sable]

Is that the quad bofors

[keen sable]

sextuple

[silk helm]

im just farming 12-4 when do i invest in san diego

[summer sable]

What about the 76 mk27

[whole crypt]

now is a good time to start, takes quite a bit though

[silk helm]

ik 😭 20 prints and retro item

[worldly pewter]

sandy is good with her augment
don't rush her retro

[whole crypt]

well 12 is a good place to be grinding so you can level and retrofit her along the way

and you can try pushing 13 when she's done

going to need a shit load of coins anyway

[viscid swift]

Have you got any UR main fleets still to limit break

[silk helm]

well only moga

[viscid swift]

If you're not even done with Alsace then hold off

[silk helm]

srry i mlb alsace. only moga and i have 4 ur bulins

[viscid swift]

How many specialized cores do you have right now

[silk helm]

like 1k currently and 2000 left to get this month

[sweet merlin]

should i give laff2 oxy torp?

[viscid swift]

I would reccomend holding off still

No great rush to retrofit her and you'll need some time to gather all the mats anyway

[sweet merlin]

wdym opposite colour exchange?

[silk helm]

[viscid swift]

Play it safe and just see what happens while your wait

[soft raft]

no one really needs that
at most it's a overkill aux as if you can get away with using it over losing HP, then you were probably already handily beating the content you're doing anyways

[soft raft]

the event shop for this event
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Divergent_Chessboard

[sweet merlin]

ah i thought there was an exchanged called "colour"

[still sage]

Could somebody help me creating at least 2 fleets without looking at lvl etc. Just information which ships are good to lvl up ?

[sweet merlin]

dump box

[soft raft]

Post your dock in a thread

[viscid swift]

It's better to just post your dock

Economics plays just as a big a role in early game fleet building as performance

[still sage]

Fleet

[whole crypt]

bottom line don't buy the retrofit item until you actually reach the modernization node

[sweet merlin]

what dos the command word mean

[jaunty vault]

means its a command ship

its just a bit bulkier and stronger mob

[soft raft]

it also buffs its fellow mobs

[whole crypt]

command ships are stronger than regular mobs and gives an offensive buff every errr 12s I think, and stacking

the carrier variety also dumps planes at you, which can be a problem even if you have good AA because they're not the only source of planes

[eternal moth]

When are CN patch notes normally posted?

[whole crypt]

if there's one thing AL is consistent with

[viscid swift]

we're still about 7 hours off assuming the patch notes aren't delayed for a day

[eternal moth]

ok, so I'll just look for the JP notes tomorrow then

[whole crypt]

well if you come back this time tomorrow we might have both sets to work with

might

[urban lynx]

Is this fighter good?

[soft raft]

extremely niche for anti-heavy but even for that purpose it's also niche depending on timings

I personally never really found the need for one outside of RodneyM showdown and even then i only crafted the one

[urban lynx]

Why anti heavy if it has worse mod than a 500lb bomb?

[eternal moth]

Fighters are typically a pretty low % of your total damage

[soft raft]

The main draw with this fighter is that it fires rockets which on paper have a higher hit rate than the usual parallel bombs

[hollow sail]

bombs have bad hitrate against single target, give or take 50% depending on the exact bombs

[viscid swift]

rockets have basically 100% hit rate if you have a slow and scale off of 100% aviation stat whereas bombs only scale off of 80% among other things

the result it is while it isn't by a huge margine the Fw-190 A5 just for damage does do slightly better than the 2 x 1000 Ibs fighters against heavy

[sweet delta]

bombs are parallel because of gravity and ignoring plane speed

[whole crypt]

bombs are just a matter of spread, not parallel, as well as AVI scaling

[viscid swift]

this is of course without accounting for the loss of intercept and thus concealment potentially

[sweet merlin]

what is mgm

[sweet merlin]

so ho many shots it shoots when the gun activates?

[eternal moth]

It depends on the gun

For a triple 406 mk6, for example, you'd shoot 3 bullets with mgm+0, or 9 if you have mgm+2

[whole crypt]

well basically how many times the gun you mounted will fire

[sweet merlin]

ah ok

[forest palm]

the gun you equip is what is designated to be assigned to the ship, the amount of MGM is how many the ship will have, and fire kind of simple

[sweet merlin]

how to know what mgm is a ship?

[forest palm]

how many mounts a ship has? wiki is the quickest way to know

[loud rover]

how many backflips is she gonna do now?

[eternal moth]

Or look at their limit break description. They all start out with 1

[sweet merlin]

should i switch this? my ship misses the enemy sometimes

[wind hazel]

yes, use quad mag

unless you play manual

[forest palm]

Quint 610 torpedo mount practically exclusively for manual play

[sweet delta]

When you need multiple pure Ironblood fleets simultaneously

[vestal thistle]

When is that

[vale spindle]

when you want to make the game hard on purpose

[sweet merlin]

which to put on laff2

[whole crypt]

if unsure just give her 2 tookits or a tookit + rudder

[jaunty vault]

manjuu+toolkit

[plain saffron]

*depends

[whole crypt]

eh, depends on where you're using her

[sweet delta]

if unsure just follow the picture because "general" content

[sweet merlin]

story w 14 mob, opsi cv fleet

[sweet delta]

Hedgehog for w14 mob

[sweet merlin]

ok

[sweet delta]

Opsi is easy so whatever, you could even keep the hedgehog even though it's useless

[sweet merlin]

currenly i have rep box and stearing gear on her, which to replace

[sweet merlin]

stongholds and lvl 6/ arbiters would like to have a word with you

[vale spindle]

na id win

but seriously if ur ships lvl 120+ with good gear should be fine even if 1 aux slot is useless

[sweet merlin]

why? too many subs in w14?

[vale spindle]

Yes

So many subs in w14 trust me

check nagamis site for more information on when and where

[jaunty vault]

hello where samvaluations
ty

[viscid swift]

given the state of your when we checked your fleets for W13, you weren't exactly doing yourselves any favours to be blunt

I also rather doubt you're in a position to tackle W14

[novel condor]

Hello where cooperevaluation ty

[jaunty vault]

might as well start making them

[kind needle]

HE good for light armor?

[silk helm]

is the prototype triple 406 (from proto shop) better than the purple triple 406 mk?

[stark quiver]

He is only good for light armor in fact

[kind needle]

The Champagne gun one? Yes, but in med to heavy armor ones.

[whole crypt]

they're all triple 406 which guns specifically are you talking about

SAP is also triple 406

[kind needle]

Oh, yea

[viscid swift]

They are good for different things

Mk7 for light and champagne gun for medium and heavy armor

[kind needle]

Pr 7 coming this week?

[viscid swift]

Yes

[silk helm]

oh wow, didn't know that.

so the top one and the bottom one are just based on the armor type im up against?

[whole crypt]

anyway depends on use case

[kind needle]

Yes, champy gun on the bottom, mostly used on Medium to Heavy armors.

[silk helm]

[whole crypt]

it's one of the best guns for medium/heavy boss comps

it's not straight up worse or better than Mk6 or Mk7

[kind needle]

Anyways, kear gun shit or not?

[stark quiver]

which one is kear gun

[whole crypt]

bad timing

[forest palm]

it's no better than an MK6, or MK7

[kind needle]

The PR6 406mm one

[whole crypt]

kearsarge gun is Mk6 prototype

[viscid swift]

It's an HE version of the Yamato gun practically speaking

[kind needle]

Could Ulrich use it to spam tho?

[viscid swift]

You'd still be better with an Mk6 or 7

[forest palm]

wouldn't bother even with Ulrich

[vale spindle]

#985929231328497745 message

[sharp socket]

how much of an improvement is SAP gun over champagne gun against medium

[viscid swift]

It's not if you can't reduce the spread of the gun

If you can It's a marginal improvement

[whole crypt]

4%

[loud rover]

even then its not worth investing into 3 SAP guns when you have 3 champy guns already +13ed

[vale spindle]

if ur champy gun +13 already not worth going past +10 on sap gun for very smol gain

[forest palm]

there's effectively only 1 SAP Gun in this game that's worth a damn

[kind needle]

150 armor mod vs champy gun that have around 145 ig. But SAP (MP Gun) has higher spread.

[vale spindle]

also now we have soyuz gun so just use that lul

[loud rover]

oooh do tell

[kind needle]

+13 champy still better imo

[viscid swift]

The twin 135mm

[forest palm]

Pomp Gun, not much place left for it since the 138.6, and 100 kai

[sharp socket]

oh soyuz gun is medium

[viscid swift]

That may or may not change in the next few days

[viscid swift]

Medium and heavy armor

[whole crypt]

Soyuz gun is AP, good for medium and heavy

[loud rover]

ah virtual tower event

[kind needle]

The italian dd gun one?

[stark quiver]

Oh yea virtual tower

[forest palm]

when SAP as an ammo type has been a failure, and the only w it has is basically taken away from it

[kind needle]

Izumo got better with her aug?

[forest palm]

it was a noticable improvement, yes

[loud rover]

wow her augment was already good with its stats but the effects are ridiculous

[kind needle]

Could I finish this in this week before Pr7 or no? (Still waiting for morale since my ships using for it are limited)

[forest palm]

could literally bang that out in 2 days

[viscid swift]

You could do it in a day if you really wanted to

[sweet merlin]

if you ignor morale

[kind needle]

I really wanted tho, but morale is

[viscid swift]

There are ways to do it without ignoring morale

[loud rover]

just run other ships that match the cdc condition

[stark quiver]

Dorm/touch grass

[sharp socket]

if u diligently swap them in dorm, and you have enough oil, you can sortie 3x4x6 times in one day on like 12-1

[earnest flare]

is dd or cl tech usually better to farm for?

[kind needle]

I farm 12-4

[whole crypt]

2.4M is a one-day business if you push it

[kind needle]

Can non mlb ships gain cdc exp? Even if it shows +0?

[worldly pewter]

c1 is basically free

[kind needle]

Oh yea, used some command on bot spam, it actually does

[viscid swift]

personal preference really

[forest palm]

as long as it isn't something like ASW, HP, AA, or DD EVA

[sharp socket]

is BB EVA worth anything

[forest palm]

there is no BB EVA, it's just BC EVA, and still not worthwhile

all of these are BCs, and the tech itself is exclusive to BCs

[eternal moth]

CA EVA is very important, though

[forest palm]

I've always questioned if the 4 EVA you get for CAs amounts to anything

more the better of course, but as a whole it is 4 points

[eternal moth]

Good point. That said, what would you say is the most important vanguard tech, DD FP? CA FP? Something else?

[forest palm]

I'm more keen on CA + CL FP Tech → DD FP → CA EVA + CL EVA → CA + CL + DD RLD/Hit → DD TRP → CL + CA TRP

[eternal moth]

Sounds good to me.

[forest palm]

keep in mind Battle Monitors share tech with CBs, and it's all RLD

[eternal moth]

Oh, CL FP is something I'm way behind on apparently. That'll give me a good number of ships to use.

[tiny gulch]

hi guys, any gimmick for the EX map or just lob URs

[whole crypt]

I'd take cruiser EVA first regardless

[forest palm]

it is only 8 ships, so fair

[tiny gulch]

oh wait it's a coalition fight

[forest palm]

though Brennus, Guichen, Natori, and Haguro are all limited still so it's half that

[eternal moth]

Hmm. Klaudia might actually be better than Uni for mobbing in OpSi, even at 120 I just finished stronghold at the highest HP yet. I'll have to do more testing to be sure though

[forest palm]

here I just settle for Percy + 2x UR BB + Hind + Unzen

[eternal moth]

I'm currently running Musashi/Klaudia/Indep/Kron/Hind/Unzen

[forest palm]

I got tired of switching for abyssals, and so on so I just made an all in one fleet

still have to switch for Arbiter though

that said Klaudia's healing should be rather nice

[eternal moth]

I typically run 2 fleets for harbiter, mob and bb

[viscid swift]

It's still behind Unicorn

Probably just a case of good enough healing and the damage increasing being the net positive

[forest palm]

sounds logical to me

[viscid swift]

Of course not all final bosses are equally as difficult

[forest palm]

I think at this point if you have a the whole toy box available you're not going to lose a ship, or that much HP for that matter

[eternal moth]

As I said, more testing is needed

[whole crypt]

I haven't done my abyssals this month but I could throw my mob fleet at it when I get around to try

won't be before tomorrow anyway, need to swap out Wichita META

[forest palm]

I just used my 4th fleet to level Meta Skills lol

[whole crypt]

4th fleet is crossfleet junk

can't level skills if it sees no action

[forest palm]

pump enough books...

[whole crypt]

I'm a hoarder so...

I think I used books to max the skills on one of the cruise METAs some months back, as it turns out wasted anyway since cruise METAs don't need to be used to be maxed, and I had to level her anyway

[fossil shard]

the option to turn them into protocore only happens when u actually completed the series right? So like if i wanna give up on a ship or two, i wont be able to turn the BP until they're mlb?

[zinc turret]

opsi

[hollow gust]

Ik that's opsi

[jaunty vault]

you can convert a PR BP into protocore when you have a ship from that PR season at dev30 for general prints and ship specific prints want you to have that specific ship at atleast dev30

[tulip zenith]

Is there gonna be a new ur anytime soon

[whole crypt]

next new UR should be September

[jaunty vault]

there's gonna be two new DRs next maintainenence

[tulip zenith]

So I’m good to pull for shinano?

[whole crypt]

no

[hollow gust]

No? Don't pull , you should be saving

[whole crypt]

don't pull perm pool, just let the pity do its thing

[tulip zenith]

Does it give pity for daily light pull

[viscid swift]

Yes

[whole crypt]

yes

[jaunty vault]

its one of the logger missions

[tulip zenith]

Oh ok thx

[whole crypt]

every cube spent is 1 point regardless of heavy, special or light

[hollow gust]

It's not like you will take advantage of shinano even if you do get her . Just use your enty

[whole crypt]

so light pool will be slower but it'll still count

[agile sky]

so im about to finish a ship tonight, but like all i got is izumo, fdg, gascog, chesire, anchor, and agir. After the next maint, should even be looking at the next PR series or should i just stay with the current stuff?

[sharp socket]

do i +13 bf109, saiun kai or flapjack first

[jaunty vault]

stay with the current stuff

[agile sky]

gotcha

[kind needle]

How many white shells shall I have minimum?

[jaunty vault]

PR7 wont be usable even if you get them early

[jaunty vault]

atleast 3 is recommended

[kind needle]

So, should I get something like this or some beacons? I heard that they intercept

[viscid swift]

Not the Flapjack that's for certain

[silver lintel]

If you dont have enough wyverns and trying to clear w15 sure

[whole crypt]

if you lack good TBs it's a decent plane
beacons is just for timing adjustment

[kind needle]

My tbs are 3 ryuseis, a bunch of saiuns, 2 D-4’s, a wyvern, and a skypirate. (And also some barracudas)

[whole crypt]

breguets are basically barracudas that can intercept

[kind needle]

I alr have indep, 2 black shells, 2 missiles, and no beacons, which should I get?

[whole crypt]

white shells

[kind needle]

Have 3 of em

[whole crypt]

save if you're not sure, shop will be there till end of month and it just restocks anyway

[kind needle]

Aight.

[sharp socket]

third black shell, and beacon/manjuu whenever you need timing adjust

[whole crypt]

there's no immediate hurry to buy from the shop since most of the things you'll only need so many copies

[sharp socket]

you can just hoard core data until you need to buy something from it

[whole crypt]

if you really want to buy something it'll be chips and arrays

since those are expendables that will keep getting used

[sharp socket]

snorkel + hull for subs too if you want

[sweet merlin]

does all dd/ddg use the same torps?

[eternal moth]

Using gold quad mags is fine for 99% of ships. Occassionally you'll want to use Iris torps, but nobody's going to fault you for quad mags

[jaunty vault]

DDGs don't use torps

[whole crypt]

DDGs can't fit torps anyway, that's not relevant

[wild fern]

Hello everyone, here's what I don't understand. Why do we need boxes with cats? And at what level can they be opened?

[jaunty vault]

pretty sure its lvl30

[whole crypt]

cattery is unlocked at like level30

[jaunty vault]

cats add stats to your ships and have their own skills

[wild fern]

I'm level 32 but it's not there

[wild fern]

Thank you

[jaunty vault]

oh it unlocks at lvl40

[sweet merlin]

i ean, when i check slaimud, all ships use the same very expensive torps

[eager mulch]

quad mags are expensive

[forest palm]

not really

[whole crypt]

quad mags are a dime a dozen when you're terminally 👴

[forest palm]

it saves your sanity from having to open boxes, and get ME-155As

[sweet merlin]

i man the quint torps

[whole crypt]

rainbow quint mags are only sidegrade to gold quads

most of the torp ships should list them in the same space

[sweet merlin]

... just noticed it

[whole crypt]

quint mags you can craft if you have spare torp prints I guess, no priority there by large

[sweet merlin]

is the damage per toprp ths same for both?

[viscid swift]

Yes

[whole crypt]

per base torp damage yes

quints technically get a bit more because higher TRP, but it also reloads slower

[sweet merlin]

ah ok

i were to grind this, should i grind opsi or the war archive stages

[zinc turret]

uh grind event first i guess since u will get better version of that torp for only like 2k oil if u do hard mode

[novel condor]

Opsi would be better tbh

[plain saffron]

Opsi

[forest palm]

would cope with boxes before farming War Achives for gear

[whole crypt]

grinding for prints is just painful and archive has shit returns

just wait for boxes until you can craft them easily in lab

[sharp socket]

gold quadmagtorp are the best accessible option right

[forest palm]

that or UR Quint

[eternal moth]

I've been playing for a little over 3 years and I still only have 1 set of rainbow mags. They really aren't needed.

[forest palm]

stat pading is about it

unless you're resource rich, and want to be opulent about the way your build looks

[plain saffron]

Imagine having them at all

[noble wyvern]

did i miss anything or? (since my azurlane just start working,before it didnt work)

[jaunty vault]

gotta give us a timeframe

[noble wyvern]

?

[jaunty vault]

how long was your game not working

[frank pulsar]

how are we supposed to know what you missed if you dont tell us when you stopped

[zinc turret]

u miss lots of thing

[noble wyvern]

how much? (my last was the event with the brennus charater in it)

[jaunty vault]

not much then

[novel condor]

not much indeed

[jaunty vault]

you could still catchup easily

just do current event, read pins

[whole crypt]

current event is pretty slack, most important is torps at 8k and if you care about collection then ship at 10k

[noble wyvern]

ok then, do you have suggestion to make gameplayer smoother or?

[whole crypt]

not much else, besides PR7 coming this week

[jaunty vault]

get a good gaming phone

[frank pulsar]

try run 30 fps instead of 60 if youre on low end device, nothing you can do beyond that afaik
if youre on emulator allocate more resources to it

[noble wyvern]

well im using a pc (allocate more resources to it? )

[stark quiver]

dont allocate too much into it or pc go boom

[whole crypt]

emulators usually have a setting for how much CPU and RAM it can use

[frank pulsar]

in emulator you can usually adjust how much resources like ram or cpu it uses

[noble wyvern]

im confuse- (no clue what is a allocate)

[stark quiver]

allocate is basically how much of the pc ram/cpu power you put into the program running the game

[shell willow]

what emulator do you use?

[noble wyvern]

blue stack

[silver lintel]

Try ldplayer, pretty lightweight

[noble wyvern]

ldplayer?

[shell willow]

https://youtu.be/AfRblFlIGOA

[inner delta]

[shell willow]

[forest palm]

[stark quiver]

easier to run than bluestacks?

[noble wyvern]

why is that icon of blue stack is diffrent?

[silver lintel]

In my experience its easier to run than bluestack

[stark quiver]

ill try it out, idk why but bluestacks suddenly lags my pc

[forest palm]

me using Samsung Dex

[blazing shale]

Because bluestacks is a piece of garbage that will BSOD

[stark quiver]

just use now.gg

[forest palm]

most things are garbage, and cause BSOD, it's just finding the right balance

[whole crypt]

bs works fine for me so
anyway this is probably more for #technology

[noble wyvern]

oh forgot

[plain saffron]

Works fine for me

Anyway fuck nox

[forest palm]

[pine crystal]

Z47 only from pulls?

[steady beacon]

Ye

[sweet merlin]

is z47 good?

[pine crystal]

I've spent over 600 cubes without getting her

[plain saffron]

[steady beacon]

She's fine
I'm not sure if I'd spend 600 cubes for her though

[plain saffron]

Already that deep might as well do more

[steady beacon]

Actually, I probably would, but for sentimental reasons and not for meta reasons

[pine crystal]

I need to for 100% collection, but I kinda wanted some cubes left over for research 7, also have started needing to use gold from my mail for the first time ever

[plain saffron]

I would gladly spend my 1600 cubes for her

[sweet delta]

whats the agir fleet with gear for wichitam and does it work with max tech and oaths

[steady beacon]

Which Agir fleet, even

[sweet delta]

the best

[cobalt rapids]

this one ?

[steady beacon]

I'd probably consider that 3-strike one the best, so let's go with that one
Bc too lazy to go find the others rn

Also too busy too look rn unless I want to overcap

[cobalt rapids]

i couldnt get this fleet to work

[steady beacon]

I thought you said you did
Was it not that fleet you got 2 SG kills with?

[cobalt rapids]

also idk what the point of offtank pearl ply is

[steady beacon]

Neither I, which is why I ditched it for RPG

[cobalt rapids]

no thats the one with mog

[hollow gust]

She dies so it works eventually

Also I hated that one 🚮, CVs better

[steady beacon]

Oh you use the Mog variant

[sweet delta]

whats the highest kill chance fleet with gear for wichitam and does it work with max tech and oaths

highest to your knowledge

[steady beacon]

Probably the CV 3-strike

[jaunty vault]

which one's that

[steady beacon]

Give me a minute to finish

[jaunty vault]

ion got the time for this pili

[steady beacon]

Sorry, but between PvP and cooper, PvP wins

Based on 36 trials, I ended with a perfect 18/36, for 50%
Which is at least in the same ballpark as CN concluded for a similar construct...
Instinctively, all other attempts strike me as having lower chance, but that is probably just a result of my worse BB equipment... CN's data shows all three main fleets in competition hovering in the 50% range
If anyone wants to contribute verifiable data for those fleets, please let me know

[sweet merlin]

what is AoA?

[sweet delta]

Does this easily overkill on 2 scans?

[cobalt rapids]

all out assault

[jaunty vault]

all out ass- nvm ren you got it

[sweet merlin]

what does it do?

[jaunty vault]

fires stuff

[eternal basalt]

Damage

[stark quiver]

it fires all guns right?

[calm rose]

Barrage after x amount of times main gun fired

[cobalt rapids]

barrage every x mg fired

[jaunty vault]

no it fires a barrage

AoA is a barrage

[calm rose]

My ply having skill issue, survivability issue for this team comp

[cobalt rapids]

oathed vang diff

[sweet delta]

😔 I don't have +13 rpg and manjuu and five +13 hvarcats and oathed Helena

[calm rose]

Mine is 200 aff

[sweet delta]

+11 Albion too

[steady beacon]

"Easily" overkill... most of the time, at least
If you have accidents like premature Ply death or bad damage rolls, it can come down to whether your vang survives long enough for Kear's last airstrike to kill
Supposedly the threshold is 3/5 +13 HVARcats... in lieu of that, I'd try something else
Esp if you have 2x +13 Mk 7s

Well, I use HMS vanguards all the time, 35 general plates is cheap enough

[steady beacon]

You using Beacon YorkII? Or Manjuu Implac?

[cobalt rapids]

10 hp

[sweet delta]

Is this max main fleet rld tech?

[calm rose]

Iirc it was manjuu implac

[steady beacon]

Yes
If you try another plane variant, CVs keep max RLD
Kear's RLD gets lowered to keep sync

[steady beacon]

Try Beacon YII, catapult Implac
At this point, I'm basically 100% convinced that Beacon YII/Cata Implac screenclear times are the miracle that keeps Ply alive more consistently
(this assuming 40 RLD, oath 200 times ofc)

[calm rose]

im gonna oath them 200 times it seems yes ill try that later. Thanks

[sweet merlin]

for w14, do i "park" my boss fleet at the light house?

[cobalt rapids]

u jsut have to activate it once and its a done deal no need for further actions

[sweet merlin]

ah ok

[cobalt rapids]

mine ply consistently dies before 3rd airstrike

[sweet merlin]

does clearing mode remove this gimmick?

[steady beacon]

Before 3rd airstrike is a coinflip for me
I don't expect her to survive past like... 00:21ish
I just don't want her to die at like 00:40 and leave Helena vulnerable

[sweet delta]

+13 goldburn or +10 pearl or +10 rpg for sirius?

[sweet merlin]

do i save the flares in w14 for the boss?

[cobalt rapids]

just dont use flares

[frank pulsar]

imho pearl

[steady beacon]

If you're off-tanking Sirius, not Pearl
Unless you can get her to die better than I can, at least

[sweet merlin]

then how do i make sure i land my hits on the boss

[cobalt rapids]

normally

[stark quiver]

I used them for boss or when my mob was dying

[cobalt rapids]

are u manualling ?

[sweet merlin]

what is this purple circle

[sweet delta]

have you tried reading the in game chapter 14 help menu

[strange sphinx]

AA range

[sweet merlin]

thats white

[inner delta]

that's like detection meter stuff

[stark quiver]

Is the the detection circle

[strange sphinx]

You mean the Sub

[inner delta]

no

it's just a detection

[calm rose]

I use rpg or smth, sirius very rarely dies before helena, most of the time pearl procs after helena manjuu procs. For offtank sirius ofc

[sweet merlin]

when evd tag is on my ship, it means its detected right?

[sweet delta]

my helena died at 0:25 and sirius died at 0:17

[sweet merlin]

what content?

[cobalt rapids]

meta showdown

[steady beacon]

Skill issue
Better question is when did Ply die

If she died early, then yes, everyone just dying is a potential hazard

[sweet delta]

is albion the best for ply agains wichitam?

[cobalt rapids]

i tried ice bomb, its about the same

[steady beacon]

I mean, if you want to experiment and get me some more data, I'd greatly appreciate it
But it's the best chance I personally found

[magic siren]

Is this a good place to ask for fleet build comps with my current dock?

[sweet delta]

i'll be taking notes
kear yorkii implac ply Helena Sirius
2 scan always enough damage if ply doesn't die early (four +13 hvarcat)
survival 20/21
win rate 11/21

bisz als kear ply Helena Harbin
2 scan often enough damage (two +13 mk7)
survival 15/16
win rate 8/16

[cobalt rapids]

do it in a thread

[steady beacon]

Good, and pls share
Ironically, the CV fleet is the one I have no data on except from myself, with my own specific oath/tech/equipment situations

[sweet merlin]

are the core data for all the stages x-[1-4] the same?

[plain saffron]

Yes

[noble wyvern]

also is the new gacha event is worth to pull or? (ok)

[magic siren]

Fleet building help! (Returning player)

[noble wyvern]

i guess only pull for collection,waifu?

[sweet delta]

baited 😔

[noble wyvern]

im kinda confused what does it mean

[sweet merlin]

have they annoinced the factions of the new pr ships?

[steady beacon]

Yes
1 Italian, 1 Russian, 1 American, 1 Japanese, 1 French

[stark quiver]

If the ships in the pool are better then your current ones

[sweet merlin]

which is dr/pr?

[noble wyvern]

well im only using the z23 retrofit Pennsylvania portland helena volga unicorn (soo is the new ship better then the one i have rn or?)

[tame jungle]

Go check #game-news it’s on the announcements

[thorn tartan]

I finally got to 400 on the UR counter. Shinano New Jersey. I've recently acquired a couple new bbs, Alsace and Soyuz (and some research bbs too). Maybe go with Shinano

[steady beacon]

DR CA Napoli (Italian)
DR CV Admiral Nakhimov (Russian)
PR DD Halford (American)
PR BB Daisen (Japanese)
PR CL Bayard (French)

[agile sky]

is there a vanguard ship that can heal main fleet?

Need to farm iron main fleet but i dont think the ships i got can survive all the mobs in 12-1 without heals beyond gears...ie cant maximize with 3 ships without unicorn...

[sweet delta]

you can use better AA instead of healing

[cobalt rapids]

u can also hpfaa ur backline and/or use circle formation

[agile sky]

...im sorry, i have no idea what that means.

[cobalt rapids]

just upgrade ur aa guns and then see if they survive first

[agile sky]

This is whay im running rn and those r my iron mains.

[cobalt rapids]

yea u can remove unicorn

[hollow gust]

You can switch this to circle

[agile sky]

do i go with bismarck since she's most lvl-ed?

[inland shoal]

If she's not 125 yet she's fine to use even though you're missing a limit break (I assumed you meant Biszwo)

[cobalt rapids]

any mlb ship or elite ship works, use one that gives good tech or that u plan to use

[agile sky]

nah i meant who to replace unicorn, was asking about the other bismark lol

[inland shoal]

Sure, Bisko has good tech

[agile sky]

i figured its either Bismark for less risk, or Seydlitz to lvl up for future use but idk if she'd be too under lvl-ed

[cobalt rapids]

if u use proper gear theres no risk for lvling in 12-1 for any ship unless ure using a full fleet of rly bad ships and by rly bad i mean bottom of the barrel and even then u just fix it by more lvls

[royal cloud]

can I restore my goldburn and rainbow event dd gun if I accidentaly sold it?

[crimson glacier]

no

[royal cloud]

alr thx

my friend accidentaly sold one of his so I wanted to ask

[crimson glacier]

time to pay the stupid tax

[wet prairie]

Still no info on PR7 gear?

[steady beacon]

Not yet

[balmy matrix]

Between alvitr and lutzow which should I use for 12-1 xp farm for fdg?

[steady beacon]

Well, Alvitr at least has good tech
Although I do like Lutzow more

[nova halo]

prob tomorrow

[plain saffron]

Does goldburn not have code confirmation

[fresh tangle]

I just got a second Reno and haven’t touched the first one, should I just get her to 10 and use it as a bulin? Haven’t exactly seen anyone say Reno is worth using any time soon

[jaunty vault]

limit break would be the sensible thing to do but you can do whatever you want

[agile sky]

Whoch skill controbutes the most to what makes fdg good? Like which one should i focus on lvl-ing up first?

[cobalt rapids]

u can do 6/6/6 > 10/10/10 if u wanna minmax it but it doesnt rly matter
usually its the % barrage that gets lvled first

[clever sun]

Should i limit break my submarine?

What submarine should i use and limit break them?

[frank pulsar]

imho none of them worth using

for subs since they take forever to level up it better to just wait until you have access to best subs

[wide marsh]

102+81+410 looks like good wolf stack. But im not a big pro at SS

[whole crypt]

81 is fine but you need full wolfpack

101 is okay but she's like the worst gold U-boat

[wide marsh]

Gold wolfloli is still gold wolfloli

[whole crypt]

but yeh without a 3rd gold wolf is like whatever
the question being whether he even needs to be raising subs now

[wide marsh]

Calling subs to steal some XP and do a bit of dmg is free as far as I know.

[whole crypt]

it's also extra oil spent

if you don't need the damage that is

[wide marsh]

Calling subs cost oil?

[whole crypt]

calling them into battles costs oil

[finite crag]

pressing the button to use them in a battle does

[frank pulsar]

they have 158 dock space, probably new player

[whole crypt]

they also don't gain XP very efficiently because you don't summon them every fight

it's more often recommended to just level them with XP packs or dorm up to MLB at least, then use them in the last 20ish levels to wrap up affinity as well

[thorny laurel]

My prinz rupprecht keeps dying too quickly to similar level enemies even with a unicorn and Graf zeppelin, she has heavy armour but I don’t get why it’s happening

[frank pulsar]

dying where

[thorny laurel]

10-3 she’s level 103

[frank pulsar]

did you give her a decent secondary gun

[plain saffron]

In 10/11 enemy target flagship more
Use fire extinguisher
and yeah gun

Plus the other 2 is cv so only ruppy visible to enemy

[frank pulsar]

also if youre grinding her levels its easier to do it in w12

[thorny laurel]

Oh ok thanks

[gilded shale]

Should I get the new shipgirls?

[plain saffron]

Not really

Only if waifu

[inland shoal]

Or you have a lot of cubes anyway

[reef flume]

How do I understand what bosses are light armor and what bosses are med/heavy armor?

[gilded shale]

900+?

[inland shoal]

Something like that

[gilded shale]

Pog

[inland shoal]

Also depends on if you need any of the UR reruns

[finite crag]

if its opsi you disable fleet lock and youll see the armor type

if not idk just ask here ig

[reef flume]

Thx. What about campaign?

[finite crag]

wiki

[reef flume]

Ok

[inland shoal]

If the enemy is a ship we also have it's usually the same armour as the playable ship

[vale lotus]

Does hitting oil cap increase xp gained or nah?

[plain saffron]

No

[vale lotus]

K thx

[plain saffron]

Clearing rewards however scale with oil used up to oil cap

[whole crypt]

hm CN still no patch notes...

[frank pulsar]

you can roughly guess based on hull type
dd, cl light
ca, cv medium
bb heavy
ofc, theres exceptions

[wary timber]

Question on some skills again.
Would Bismarck's Will of the iron Blood skill stack with Unicorn's Reload Command : Vanguard if I have a full IB vanguard. The reload part

[frigid linden]

Is the Gold Suisei good?

[frank pulsar]

yes, only same skill or otherwise specified dont stack
vanguard reload kinda pointless though imho

[frank pulsar]

im pretty sure its for timing purposes only

[wide marsh]

Should i take Gneisenau or Thuringen for off flag BB (farming for FdG rn)? I know they both bad, but still.

[whole crypt]

you just level anything for CDC

[tame jungle]

You make do

[strange sphinx]

Hmmmm should I stick with Ryusei instead of Junkers (Well the only CV in my boss fleet it implacable)

[frank pulsar]

if it fit your timing better then why not

[steady beacon]

Choice between the various converging TBs is fundamentally a matter of timing

[frank pulsar]

ryusei > junker > saiun in terms of dmg, but you pick whichever suits your timing best since the dmg difference is quite small

[wary timber]

Dosent those skills speed up the reload of my vanguard either way.

[frank pulsar]

youll prob launch your torps ~1-2s faster with rld buffs

[wary timber]

What about my guns lol

Or are those dependent on the reload time on their upgrade level

[frank pulsar]

idk that depend on your gun, but its gonna be a small difference as well
rld buffs have much smaller impact than loading time buffs

youd get much more out of fp or trp buffs for your vanguard

[lament bay]

is this one worth doing

[strange sphinx]

hmmm should I use Georgia gun for Musashi or the Purple BB gun is enough?

[whole crypt]

for?

[inland shoal]

It's not the worst ig

[frank pulsar]

depends, usually youd use the twin 410 for mobbing or light armour and you almost never use 457 on her

[wary timber]

If u need that BF109G for whatever reason then go ahead. Just remember that these don't shoot enemy planes down if that's what u need

[whole crypt]

but you don't need to do that research for BFGs and it doesn't drop any other PR3 prints

[strange sphinx]

hmmm I might Push W14

[whole crypt]

twin 410 is fine

[frank pulsar]

stick to twin 410 then

[whole crypt]

her lightning will finish what her gun doesn't

[inland shoal]

*PR4
Also it's only 2h, at least it's better than the other researches I see in the bg, dunno what the 5th one is ofc, but looks like a B

[strange sphinx]

The Kai version have more fast reload right?

what's Kai means anyway?

[frank pulsar]

it small improvement but cheap so why not

[whole crypt]

yeh 4 sorry
depends on what the other options are but I just don't like gear specific E because it doesn't drop other research gear at all

kai is just "change/modify" in Japanese

[worldly pewter]

kai means enhanced

[whole crypt]

so a modified/retrofited version of whatever it is

[frank pulsar]

uh, ppl use kai to refer to retrofit but its also part of some ijn equipments name

[inland shoal]

Yeah, but out of the bad options 2h E with good gear is still one of the best

[whole crypt]

it's why we also refer to retrofits as kai

[whole crypt]

it technically does mean a refitted version of said gear

[lament bay]

i had a 1:30 blue coin research

[whole crypt]

which series

[lament bay]

Q

[whole crypt]

no which PR series

[inland shoal]

Ah then I'd probably take that

[crisp estuary]

[strange sphinx]

oh well My fleet consist of NJ, Musashi and implacable as boss fleet

[lament bay]

im focusing 5 right now

[whole crypt]

well is that 1.5hr coin a PR5?

[inland shoal]

Has to

Since there's already 2 PR4 in the ss

[whole crypt]

then go for it I guess

[strange sphinx]

hmmmm Should I give beaver to Northampton II?

[wary timber]

Does she really need that tho. The tierlist says just slap a repair kit and the gold steering gear and you're good

[steady beacon]

Is she main tanking a boss fight?

[strange sphinx]

Mob

[steady beacon]

Rudder + toolkit then

[wary timber]

From what I see Northampton II is a dmg dealer and support

[steady beacon]

Toolkit heal over multiple mob fights will almost certainly win

[idle perch]

can someone send me the opsi link?

[cobalt rapids]

/wiki operation siren

[wary timber]

You're better off giving the Beaver squadron badge to your boss tanks

[strange sphinx]

hmmm what about Unzen, she is my tank in boss

[wary timber]

Unzen same. Repair kit and steering gear

[strange sphinx]

so Tool kit + Washing machine

[idle perch]

i want the google spreadsheet

[cobalt rapids]

google spreadsheet of what

[wary timber]

Don't get me wrong but isn't Agir better at tanking

[idle perch]

opsi

[plain saffron]

Opsi is big

[cobalt rapids]

i dont know any

[plain saffron]

The checklist for stars?

[dawn hamlet]

Hi Is there some kind of calculator to get the number of days I need for X upgrade every day until dev 30/FS5?

[strange sphinx]

you should If I have her

[plain saffron]

Just do amount for dev30/fs5 divide by bp per day
Usually people do 10/15 for pr

[strange sphinx]

[dawn hamlet]

perfect thank you
your last sentence tho, 10/15 means the number of days?

or upgrade

[strange sphinx]

Where do you guys get the templates for the Gear shower?

[frank pulsar]

he meant people usually get 10 or 15 blueprints per day

[plain saffron]

Bp per day, i assume you talking about coining older PRs

[frank pulsar]

it take arnd 2 month iirc to coin pr ship to dev30 if you do 10 everyday

[idle perch]

could someone send me the operation siren guide?

[uncut oar]

It's 343 so isn't it more like 1 month

[dawn hamlet]

ah understood, thank you guys

[uncut oar]

fs5 is closer to 2 months

[plain saffron]

343 / 10 = 35 days

[frank pulsar]

there isnt one, closest thing to it is wiki article

[idle perch]

pretty sure there is, i used it before, under nozzana?

its in a google spreadsheet

[plain saffron]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1N0tPxZVrJIiHzoDLrRGMK4DSALlouFJUPOIjlCw6MnM/edit#gid=766111570 this is the only opsi spreadsheet i know

[uncut oar]

Checking rq, does hinden absolutely need d30

[plain saffron]

and it's to keep track of stars, not a guide

[idle perch]

nope not this one

[uncut oar]

(iirc she does but I'm sleepy)

[plain saffron]

i think i know what you lookin g for

[frank pulsar]

her last gun mount is dev30 iirc

[uncut oar]

Yeah that's d30 then considering

Spend 30 months in sam's basement

[fast plaza]

hello i have a few question, since dock space is an issue, should i just use dupes to limit brake ships and then get rid of them or should i keep at least 1 copy of even the gray ships?
also i just use the dorm token to buy expansion license right?

[frank pulsar]

buying expansion license is worth yea
always use dupes for max limit break, there is no other use for dupes besides flexing
no need to keep ships that are bad and easily obtainable

also just get more dock space with gems

[fast plaza]

so i just get rid of the bad ships after max limit break? no need to level them up?

[strange sphinx]

how do you save your Pic? or it is just SS

[finite crag]

ss

[frank pulsar]

some bad ship have good lv120 bonuses, id keep those
but if they easily obtainable again just retire anyway

[fast plaza]

ok thank you

[strange sphinx]

I'm using mobile so kind of blurry, NJ have problem with her DD gun

[frank pulsar]

use twin 137 from gearlab, that gun is terrible for intercept

if you dont wanna make that use twin 128 from gearlab

also, use triple 155 kai on musashi not neptune gun
also i would use 457 on nj outside of 14-3

if you have survivability issues with your vanguard i suggest dropping shima or sandy for a tank

[strange sphinx]

well don't have enough mats to retrofit it

[frank pulsar]

ig its fine if you swap out nj's secondary
when musashi does get her triple 155 kai make implac flag btw

[inland shoal]

What is a gear shower?

And why was my chat stuck so far in the past?

[steady beacon]

Thorin a time traveller confirmed

[strange sphinx]

well, I have level 10 457, Stilk 14-1 though

[frank pulsar]

good enough, you dont need any +13 for w14

[strange sphinx]

do you have any alternatives for NJ secondary? I can't craft both guns, I have B-13 Twin 130 but I'm using for my laffey

[strange sphinx]

She is my main fleet flag while unzen is the lead in vanguard

[pale tulip]

I'm a bit lost here, somehow Ingraham is lasting longer in sorties than Shimakaze

[frank pulsar]

nj is flag in that screenshot
twin 120 mk xi is your next best option for nj secondary, if youre not able to make that too just use purple twin 120 main gun mount and make musashi flag

also unzen tank might not live depending on how fast you kill, hence my suggestion earlier to drop sandy/shima if she does die too much

[cobalt rapids]

as expected

[pale tulip]

what's the sauce? (no fr, what is that)

[inland shoal]

[frank pulsar]

ingraham is tankier than shimakaze yea
shes a dps after all, not a tank

[pale tulip]

ight thanks

[whole crypt]

rainbow not tankier must be bad

[pale tulip]

lmfao

[shell willow]

does this mean no pr7 this week?

[plain saffron]

just scroll down a little. literally

[shell willow]

lmao mb, i didnt notice its scrollable

[whole crypt]

notes out?

[plain saffron]

https://azurlane.jp/news-item.html?i=1373

[strange sphinx]

well I thought the top part is the Flag indicator, kind of using the AL logic

[plain saffron]

2 augment huh

that should be vanny event right

[whole crypt]

centaur and leip

[frank pulsar]

theres a small number in the corner of the slot, you can see that next to nj there is a small 1
the arrangement is different between vanguard and main fleet for the website

[strange sphinx]

hmmm I see, So in number 1 in vanguard should be the lead?

[whole crypt]

La-9 I'm guessing is a seaplane for Halford?

wait no there's a float bearcat

[frank pulsar]

number 1 is tank slot yea

[whole crypt]

let me see if CN has gear types and rarity

is La-9 a fighter?

[turbid glade]

La-9 is Nakhimov's rockets fighters

[whole crypt]

ah

modified VIT2s also for Nakhimov I guess

[turbid glade]

Torpedo bomber yes probably an improved the version of the Chkalov ones we have in AL

[whole crypt]

float Bearcat probably confirms Halford will have seaplane slot

it says mode change so I'm not sure if it's still TB, or different torp types

[inland shoal]

So Nakhimov brings 2 gears huh?
Also who was that joking about UR fighter here 2 days ago?

[wide marsh]

What is drop rate of any golden gear from T3 boxes?

[frank pulsar]

unknown

[inland shoal]

From T3 boxes? 0 no?

[whole crypt]

254 probably napoli's gun and 152 Bayard's gun

[atomic abyss]

t3 is 0

t4 well, approximately 10% iirc

[wide marsh]

Erhm... Sorry. From T4 boxes

[turbid glade]

the 152mm are Napoli's secondaries, Bayard's guns are Mle 1930 not Model 1936, Model is used by Italian guns

[pale tulip]

OPSI with Shima's a no go lmao

[atomic abyss]

9-10% is what anecdotal data suggested

[whole crypt]

twin 410 mod A is Daisen's gun then, let's see if it's just a shiny twin410 or if it'll get different ammo or some shit

[turbid glade]

Expect them to be SAP since that's what Napoli's CL secondaries are known for

[whole crypt]

so no Bayard gear in the lineup?

[turbid glade]

nope

[frank pulsar]

are you making her main tank or like not using survivability aux? she shouldn't have any big survivability issues

[whole crypt]

[frank pulsar]

I'm using her just fine in opsi

[inland shoal]

Where are you getting rockets from?

[turbid glade]

That's what Nakhimov's fighters have in WoWs, that's all (No bombs at all)

HE rockets to be more specific

[whole crypt]

ah well next step is datamine then

[plain saffron]

what about vit 3

[strange sphinx]

me

[turbid glade]

Torp bomber much like the Chkalov TB we already have, dunno how better the new one would be though

[plain saffron]

great now enty gonna get buffed again

[shell willow]

is this vanguard event? english name of her event is "pledge of the radiant court"

[strange sphinx]

hmmmm don't have enough resources to buy another snorkel

[turbid glade]

yes

[shell willow]

nice

[strange sphinx]

Should I keep using Pure oxy torp until I get Snorkel?

[cobalt rapids]

not much of a choice

[frank pulsar]

you dont have much of a choice
try to summon them a little later in battle ig to try to keep them alive

[whole crypt]

so VG rerun next week?

[plain saffron]

next maint yeah dunno if next week

[frank pulsar]

im cooked if its next week

[whole crypt]

considering when to ditch my rally account

[cobalt rapids]

soup is supposed to be cooked

[plain saffron]

i prefer them raw

[frank pulsar]

do we know which of the new gear is the ur equip?

[turbid glade]

the fighter

[inland shoal]

The fighter

[wide marsh]

What the difference between elite and UR rewards? Coins?

[keen sable]

Both bad

[whole crypt]

just don't do those researches

[wide marsh]

I know they are bad but at least affordable for me RN.

[whole crypt]

unless you're absolutely broke and can't afford other researches the yields on those researches are 🚮

[wide marsh]

That still dont answer my question

[whole crypt]

gold potentially more reward

more rather it should drop more, but I'm not sure anyone tracks drops for basic research, and longer research isusually worse reward/hr

[wide marsh]

What about "donation" research? UR want more money and gold but rewards seems equal.

[uncut oar]

What's the procedure regarding cubes if you're in an event rerun for whom you have all ships again

[whole crypt]

that's cognition

[uncut oar]

Oh wait. Build tickets. I'm sorry I stupid

[wide marsh]

Will UR drop more ship BPs?

[whole crypt]

neither of those you copied there are UR

[wide marsh]

Argh... SR. Im bad at acronyms

[whole crypt]

but higher rarity will have higher minimum guarantee

per unit time it might be less than the shorter ones so up to you

[frank pulsar]

just use the tickets and continue save cube

[uncut oar]

yeah, ik, I asked then remembered nnt telling me that last time because I stupid

[late flame]

😮
https://card.weibo.com/article/m/show/id/2309405054286265450708

[whole crypt]

scroll up

[late flame]

oh me snails

[whole crypt]

there's enough tickets to build 3 daily so you can get full rewards for missions without spending cube

[keen sable]

If I say they are about the same will you understand? The gold drops ~60% more stuff

[uncut oar]

yeah, I remembered that they're a thing. thank you nnt

[plain saffron]

any idea what mode adjustment supposed to mean in history or something context

[whole crypt]

someone said it's still a TB so wait for datamine I guess

[uncut oar]

I've looked at the original CN post and I still don't understand it, sorry, it actually just says mode adjustment and isn't a google translate thing

[plain saffron]

but datamine guy always late

[faint pecan]

Should I pick Shinano or New Jersey
These are my units

[frank pulsar]

shinano, and next time you post whole dock make thread

whyd you make a thread now

i alrdy answered the question

[cobalt rapids]

@inland shoal where is chen hai restricted from equipping model 21 in code ? nvm i found it

[inland shoal]

Ok

[forest palm]

oh, hey we're getting a modified Bearcat

[turbid glade]

a Seaplane Bearcat

[plain saffron]

i know i'm late but equip_limit

someone will prob search through this channel one day

[cobalt rapids]

not equip limit, but the fact that chenhai only alows type 12, while model 21 is type 9 ig ?

[plain saffron]

huh so both

[cobalt rapids]

coz equip limit is bbv or bbv/ssv for both which chenhai doesnt fit in either

[inland shoal]

Yeah Model 21 is just not a seaplane

[plain saffron]

if chen hai allow it it still can't be equipped bcs 21 also have restriction

[inland shoal]

Model 21 is a dive bomber or sth iirc

[plain saffron]

it's db yeah

[eternal basalt]

・ Limited-time sea area event "Sword of Seisen: Castle of Light" will be reprinted.
Vanguard?

[cobalt rapids]

zuiun have restrict but chenhai can equip it

[plain saffron]

part main and sub just visual

if it's in main it have M, if in sub not main it have V

[inland shoal]

Yea those are just for these displays

[plain saffron]

no that's my site that use equip_limit

ouh nvm i just got it

[inland shoal]

The only things that really matter are the equippable types defined in the slot and the equip_limit on the gear

[eternal basalt]

equip_limit is bad, wiki better

[plain saffron]

yeah sure wiki > than literally game code

[cobalt rapids]

equip limit only defines other equip id it cant be paired with, not hulls no ?

[faint pecan]

Which UR to LB

[plain saffron]

my bad, it's ship_type_forbidden

[cobalt rapids]

ship type forbidden is what i use

[plain saffron]

so yeah for a gear to be equipable,

1. the ship have the slot for that type of equip
2. the equip don't have the hulltype in ship_type_forbidden

like the DD BB gun
both DD and BB have the slot
but DD is in ship_type_forbidden, so only BB can equip it

i know some BB but you get the point

[cobalt rapids]

oh im idiot its in equip_data_template

[dense epoch]

what to pick here?

[blissful hamlet]

any prediction on how good the new research gear is?

[cobalt rapids]

no

[blissful hamlet]

[plain saffron]

my prediction says they will be at least craftable

[steady beacon]

[eternal basalt]

Talking about pure display, have they ever fixed Bidder damage

[plain saffron]

nope

[wet prairie]

Do we know the new gear?

[silk helm]

hot take

[plain saffron]

trust me bro my uncle work at yostar

[eternal basalt]

UR Prototype carrier-borne La-9
SR Prototype VIT-2 modified
SR Prototype triple 254mm main gun model 1939
SR Prototype triple 152mm main gun model 1936
SR Prototype F8F Bearcat seaplane
SR Prototype twin 410mm main gun Mod.A

[wet prairie]

Do we know which ones UR? Or guess

Oooh

[viscid swift]

the new UR gear is a rocket fighter

[finite crag]

is that for certain?

[plain saffron]

yes

[finite crag]

how so

[wet prairie]

So a 109 replacement bruh

[plain saffron]

it's in patch notes

[cobalt rapids]

jp and cn patch notes specify rarity

[blissful hamlet]

I'm ready

[finite crag]

cool

[viscid swift]

not necessarily, it will be HE after all

[blissful hamlet]

do you have any prediction on how good the UR fighter is?
