What does PR1-PR5 and DR mean?
The lab ships have "seasons" 1-5, and are either gold (PR) or rainbow (DR) rarity.
Imo yes but i can't make the decisions
When you do a research, it is labelled with what season it comes from, which tells you what ships are in the pool of blueprints it might give (and what gear, if it gives gear prints).
1-6*
Ok I may not have gotten that far because I have zero clue what research is
At the behest of someone who could concoct a viable scenario better, I can report that Laffey's disappearing act DOES work in PvP 
If you can figure out a way to make it work usefully, though, please let me know
you won't get to deal with it until I think commander level 30 or so, even then in early game you don't really have any much resources to work with it or to bother worrying about it
It's not recommended to worry about research until you reach 9-1
when the new PR series drop, will the shop drop the PR4 pack that lets u instantly MLB one PR4 ship?
i think so according to #game-news
Yes
newbie p2w anchorage
new players have it good š
back in my day there was no coining for pr4
being able to p2w Anchor
okay grandpa
Does that mean you can basically skip Portland?
well no
Ah yeah rookie missions. Forgot about those
Back in my day, there was no coining for PR2
rookie missions?
the red tab on the top left of the main UI
how long has pr4 been out?
You thought wrong, 9-2 followed by 9-1 are the worst for 2 fleets
9-3
Number of sorties: 50000
Avg mob battles per sortie: 5.697
Avg oil cost: 214.20

Fascinating
now refund my 10 million oil
July 2021 so coming on 3 years
Take that up with Nahkimov
How much reload does vanguard get thru enhancement? Like if you didn't enhance her reload at all and leveled her to 125, what would her reload be?
hopefully i can p2w pr7 in 2027 then 
48 possible reload. but it's silly not to enhance fp at all
is there a rainbow prints pity? I've gotten 1 ply gun prints after every 1 week of not getting any.
Never mentioned not enhancing fp
Not that I'm aware of
Hmmm 
Well you can't enhance just her FP though
doesn't matter whether you mentioned it or not. -48 reload from no enhance is only possible if you don't enhance firepower
Low RLD Vanguard attempt spotted 
Everything but CVs give FP and reload enhancement and CVs only give reload for enhancing Vanguard
Any guide for fleet tech?
Good to know
BB: HIT FP RLD
CV: RLD HIT AVI
Vanguard : FP HIT RLD TORP
Okay noted thx
does retrofitting a ship count towards collection
I think it does 
bruh
should i build chkalov after gascogne (building her for the +2 rld tech) to prep for nhakimov? i think my only NP main fleet is gangut 
No Soyuz? 
Wait until tomorrow to find out what the requirements are. They may be able to use a second faction you have more of
you are not going for pr7 either way lmaoo
i stopped playing a little bit after UvH rerun and came back to the game somewhere in the second half of may
says the new player
If you REALLY think he's new you need to pay better attention
actually no 3 months, not rushing this year
haha i know. i'm going to change my name to (veteran player)
He's the oldest new player
crap i probably wont get pr7 for a while. plymouth only d14 and i only have 1 ply gun. then i need kear or hinden from pr6 and a couple hinden guns. ughhhhh
To dev 30 fast does it require the Cube Reaserch to do it?
I'm trying to decide who to research first. I'm tempted to go š
Yes, and it's really costly
i got kearsarge done in 63 days, i was 600 cubes deep
My gacha luck is too bad recently to do that, unfortunately.
even with 600 cubes it took that long 
i was super slow compared to CN, i swear they have boosted rates
I'm down to 1k cubes, and want to make sure I don't get screwed on another event
63 days is way faster than more than 90 
how fast does cn do it
more like 100+
i saw a dev 30 kearsarge a weak before mine 

Coining Dev 30 wont take nearly as long correct?
You can't coin PR7 off the bat
depends on how much coin u spend daily
I need FDG so im going for her and Brest atm
If you mean for earlier seasons, then yes
fdg will take longer cuz dr is more expensive
did u skip 4?
Long story
i did lolll and now i can p2w it
no you cant?
If you coin FdG from scratch it should take you about 36 or 37 days if you do 10 per day and if you did her catchup, for Dev 30 ofc
the best ships in that season are literally the DRs
You know you can only get one ticket right for each season?
i can p2w anchorage
~~ i have 50 BP not sure if that counts~~
And you still need to get gear, and do the DRs
Guess you aren't getting enough for 2 Tenrais if you spend less time on PR4 
well agir will take a while right?
agir should only take around 2 months to dev 30 even without cubes
You might get 50bps if you do Haku's Fs5 I think
brest worth getting (already have guam, agir, and ancho) or should head to pr6 after getting d30 plymouth and a second ply gun?
If you don't maybe you will need to stay a little longer? Since you are buying Anchor
Yee she is
ah well i do intent on finishing pr4 i just dont have the tech for anchorage, mp, haku sooo 
You may as well finish her at that point
only got the ib tech for avp and agir
And at this rate it's likely you'll be off to PR7 not PR6 first
but i dont have any hinden guns
why rush PR7 ships when you'll end up being stuck farming La-9s 
The new UR gear is a rocket fighter
It is?
enty getting buffed again, such a based ship
Yes
Are these farmable in any way or just gotten thru events ?
until we get told its for light armor
so?
It is HE rockets so
Any stats? Or did they just said it was gonna be a Rocket
wait how is enty getting buffed
wait for datamine
not farmable
those are mainly freebies
Just said it was rockets and I say HE because that's what the rockets carried by the planes in WoWs are
it just cements eagle on light 
Enterprise's skill scales directly on better gear damage, every time there is gear that improves her damage it scales on her skill
It's a joke that everytime something new that Enterprise can use is good it's a buff for her 
Owarida intensifies

AP Skip bombers when
New gun for Musashi as well new TB and a new Rocket Sea Plane
Point is there's a lot of potential for this upcoming season
any idea if 410MkA will be AP or HE based on WoWs?
eww halford is gonna be a seaboat dd, why not just give her the fubuki treatment
Kind of a toss up, I'd bet on AP though
if it's AP it's just a better gun for 14/15 though
So it's basically her equivalent to Georgia gun
Potentially
then again unless we get an IJN triple HE that will never change
Had my hopes up that it'd be a viable HE gun that could sync with others for her but alas that was copium from the start since it's twin barrel
I'm more curious if floatbearcat will have any better use on Chen Hai if it's really a seaplane
datamine tmrw?
Yes
so 24+ hrs from now and not a couple hours from now right?
Yes
ok cool i have to work early tmrw morning nice that I donāt have to stay up for datamine tn 
Good night? 
gn I have to wake up in 7 hrs for a 7 hr shift

Centaur, and Leipzig are getting augments, right? 
i cant w8 to see "Tactical Command: Cruisers" buffed and get a shit barrage
all par for the course 
is san siego retrofit good
Really good, but also really expensive
better than plymouth?
I don't think so? I don't remember how good her dmg is with her Unique Augment 
But also do you mean better than Ply as a whole or what?
damage
What should I do with excess coins?
Sub Help
Plymouth should still be the top damage CL, as well as added damage support for flag BB, there's basically no competition
LB ships, retrofits
Also define excess coins
also upgrading canteen/merchant
Cuz like 20k over your cap isn't that much
you should still be rather new so the coin cap is very low, the coin disappears rather quickly once you spend
What stages give t1 blueprints?
All of them
hard mode, depends on type you need
Oh you have to do hard mode
Iām trying to get carrier ones right now
Wait what stage are you?
yes, it's just a harder version of the exact same map, with entry requirements
Not high 3-2
How do you have excess coins in 3-2 
x-1 drops DD, x-2 cruisers, x-3 BBs and x-4 CV, so pick the map based on what you need
What's your fleet btw? Have you tried limitbreaking them?
but you'll probably quickly run out of coins from enhancing gear and LBing ships
Right now Iām focusing on limiting breaking unicorn but hereās my fleet
if you're trying to get below your soft cap to claim from your HQ building, no real need to
Oh yeah thatās what I was trying to do
Yeah.... I wouldn't bother spending coins in other stuff that isn't your fleet rn
get some prints and start putting retrofits on Unicorn and Portland
Keep in mind only Hardmode Stage 3 and above drops Gold retrofit BPs
Yeah dont
the actual coin cap is 600k and your main source of gold income is from grinding maps anyways so the HQ building is pretty inconsequential in the long run where you'd want to generally have at least 100-200k coins saved in bank
also the coin cap isn't a hard cap so you can continue to store coins earned from commissions and sorties, you just can't collect merchant
particularly for low level merchant you don't really lose a lot of coins anyway
Thank you very much for all the help
When someone gets a chance, if they could look over my subs and tell me if thereās a certain combo that Iām supposed to be operating with, itād be appreciated⦠I posted a thread!
For now I would say don't worry about your coins,keep pushing campaign and limit breaking your ships, for portland you can get copies of her from guild shop if you want
Honestly, Iām still struggling with coins. I made it to Chapter 11 so itās not as terrible, but Iām still burning coins ridiculously quickly. I imagine once you have some fleets put together and fully leveled it slows down and you can accumulate.
I burn 30k+ coins a day 
if you just reached ch11 don't worry about subs 
I used 60k today awakening ships 
How important is 125 for Harbiter? I just noticed my AvP is the only 120 on my CV fleet 
and she only has 300k exp banked
I didnāt just reach it. Iāve been lazy about continuing, though I should have continued to 12 for the chips lol. I turned most of my focus to farming cdc for FdG who I finally completed and am leveling rapidly. Iāll probably push to 12 tonight.
If you don't even have FdG I wouldn't bother with Subs tbh
I do now. She just awakened past 100
Cuz you probably don't have many BBs for mobbing
Not the end of the world if you are not aiming to min-max
I mean... if I'm not wrong, Arbiter came before the 125 cap did it not? (edit: Nope, Arbiter came slightly after 125 cap, mb)
And FdG is one of the best ones for W14+ which is when you actually use Subs
you don't really need subs until 13 or 14
and they're shit to level in actual stages anyway so just be ready to XP pack them
For now just throw the ones we told you into your dorm
Iām actually okay on them. NJ, Alsace, Biscuit, Penn, Hood (thatās a BC though).
Yep, I did. Not really interested in doing much with them right now. Just slotting stuff for soon since most of my stuff is making the final push to either 120 or 125.
last 2 won't have much use in W14 I think and idk how good NJ is for mobbing 
Also I'm surprised you got over 700 ships but not many of them seem strong do you not retire or limit break at all or what 
if that's OG Bismarck that's š®
if it's BisZwei then alongside NJ and Alsace they're enough for pushing on, assuming MLB
She was leveled with Graf and Peter for FdG farm. Who has now created 100 as well.
Sheās been abandoned lol
doesn't mean she's worth using for 13+
Oh hell no. Sacrifice for FdG.
but if she's already 100 then awaken her for tech I guess
Sheās 113. Iāll probably finish her eventually, but imma let her go for now.
I donāt waste the coins. But yeah. Hypothetically, I have a crap ton of stuff that can be MLBd. But thereās only so many resources available in a day/sitting/oil.
Well that could've been fixed if you pushed to W12 instead of staying in W11 
Easily distracted. And that sticker was massive
Stickers are massive that's why we don't use them 
Is there another spike between 12 and 11? The guide only indicates that thereās a spike at 11 and that chips are the primary reason to be at 12. I have a butt ton of chips, so I figured I could sit at 11.
Difficulty spike? Not really, just paradigm shift to planes
if you're reading the ectl guide it's kind of old
Isn't W11 harder than W12?
But the coin returns and especially the cogs make 12 generally more attractive than 11 for all but pure exp/oil ratio
ch12 is a different threat than ch11, but general gameplay wise it's easier
You THINK you have a lot of chips. You don't.
idk about w11 but w10 yes , nagato scary when she angry
What gun should I use for CA that only can use dd gun? I mean the secondary
~~I wish they removed it from /guide but I'm too lazy to #1020044605053476994 ~~
most people don't realize they're short of chips until they actually level fodder
Rainbow
š
Can I use dd main gun guide?
for CA secondary guns just check tier list gear rec
I don't think you have enough guns to be prioritizing using the shiny ones
None rainbow
Itās the cog array chips that I donāt have a lot of. The regular ones I have lots of right now. But yeah. I havenāt leveled fodder, so I havenāt used them except for my priority ships so far.
out of curiosity how many cog chips?
we're talking about chips, not arrays
super lategame players have excess arrays after they're done with leveling the shit needed for meta
but we run out of chips for awakening fodder
25,000 still. I havenāt dipped below 20,000 at any point so far.
Honestly that's nothing considering you haven't started leveling fodder
yea
my highest point was 6 digits
coin is way more of a bottleneck for me than chips 
then oilcap happened
you want to stock up on as many chips as possible, when you actually need them youll be glad you stocked up
I am holding 16k now because waiting for PR7
during most of the year it's probably closer to 1k
and that's with buying chips
are you raising everything for tech?
at this point I'm raising everything for shits and giggles
Iām not doubting what yāall are saying. Itās all been great info, so thereās no argument from me. Iām just still catching up and because Iām chronically working on 2 or more ships at a time, Iām consistently bottlenecked by the coins. So itās really just me not prioritizing well, which is why I have all the excess chips and stuff. (And still not w12 lol @remote yarrow )
most of the useful tech is already done, I'm not prioritizing any particular tech anymore
at least not until they release mroe main fleet RLD/HIT
alot of these issues can be somewhat alleviated if you move onto w12
there is a lot to spend coins on, so its not necessarily you prioritizing badly
Well, Iām probably going to have to dodge out of the chat because one of you will likely punch me for fully retroāing Sandy so early š
Talk about a coin sink
your choice
we've seen worse
People really overestimate the difficulty of W12
With her augment it's far less bad a decision
Yeah I have it.
like at least San Diego's retrofit is good, even if it's expensive
though 80k before W12 kinda hurts
I'd say retrofitting Warspite is a far worse option at this point
I have her, and I want to real bad.
or just any fodder ship out there, even if cheaper they're practically useless
Well it was even before Sandy's augment
Don't bother she's a huge dissapointment
But someone pointed out that I spent 60k plus on Sandy and I was like oh. Whoops.
So now Iām leery to do it.
I used her quite a bit, but that was also before the advent of any rainbow BBs but NJ
Sandy retrofit isn't a oops if done at the appropriate time
Warspite retrofit is a oops no matter where your progression is while you're still pushing content
Some people (not naming names) like sushigummy used warspite so much that she has 4.09m exp stored
That was what everyone was saying. It wasnāt a bad choice just a questionable time. Because I retroād her at W6.
Only?
"only"
isn't the cap 3m tho 
Show me your warspite with 5 million stored
Am I missing a joke or something 
No, there's no joke
Wait what
No cap
Whut
Truly no cap
Even exp cap is a lie 
š“
I'm guessing they introduced the 3m exp cap after that 
actually š“
Also, ASW plane in aux slot 1, based 
I don't get it
Exp overhaul when 125 1st introduced
I mean asw plane cant go in aux slot 2
hm, so sandy uses low cd guns
She can use low cd guns, but mogador gun is her strongest gun currently
When 125 was added the xp needed to go from 100 to 120 was reduced
so should i do twin 100 kai or 457?
Not the other mog gun though (155 kai), she specifically wants DD guns
Is the bug still present?
Or is it just the way it is?
Small indie company
Do people really call Mogami gun "Mog gun" 
4.09M is just old 120cap moment
So if one dosent have the mogador gun.... what's the next best option? The 100mm kai ?
I don't see mogami gun being referred to as mogami gun very much, the gun existed before mogami was added to the game and you basically never use it on her
i thoght its belgun
There was testing done, and it was found that Sandy's aug is fine as long as she's fighting a single target. It MIGHT bug out if she kills something in the middle of a barrage and switches target
"Bel gun" is cursed
it's called belgun because back in the day belfast loved it for being the only semiusable HE CL gun
Find me a video of her barrage screwing up at any other time.
get Belfast to develop better tastes in guns tbh
technically her favourite gun now is guichen gun
Guichen gun?
Isn't the best option now the 152mm prototype that u can build in gear labs too
..unless u have that gold French gun that's only available in an event
does the bug make her worse or better?
/wiki 1930 h
Triple 152mm Mle 1930
Event CL HE gun from uh
What's it called
Fool's Scales
Soon to be known also as the "Bayard gun", probably
You're the one that posted it, you can't just give me the video?
I won't lie it's design looks very French to me
what you mean the research gun is the same as that gun?
No
It's not a PR7 gun
Just that Bayard's WoWs main gun is precisely that gun
:ranchSexCalm:
Iirc it's a different year model but it's essentially the same caliber and etc
The new 152 is Napoli's secondary gun
Ah
how you know?
Because I have her in WoWs among other things
If you were 8 BP away from a 5th ply gun, would you stay till it was finished or change to pr7?
I'm embarrassed for not knowing about Guichen gun because that was the first event I skipped out on during hiatus
Good ship
So as I said, her barrage is screwed up when switching targets
I thought the patchnotes mentioned the faction or something
<--- never got past t4 in wows
Until we know more about PR7 in detail, try to get those 8 BPs
I specifically said there was no issue on a single target
Her barrage is screwed up at all times not depending on the enemy
Isn't it screwed when shooting her second gun?
... We can extrapolate from knowing which guns belong to who
... I should have included that detail in the patch notes summary, actually
Not that you'd have read it anyway, serenity 
And my video shows that on the same target as well
... This is why we PvPers are outcasts tbh 
Hmm looking at the new PR Russian CV ... aren't we gonna get a new DP gun
I thought it was a reference to a certain song
Hinden is fair 
No
#trophy-room is that way
is it normal for alsace to do that low of damage
What's a DP gun
Dual purpose gun
Dual Purpose I'm guessing
Dual purpose gun
what's dual purpose gun
+10 geo gun ig
No quad 130mm for you
itd be suprising if we get the DD gun instead
Gun that can target ships or planes
Don't we already have that in game?
Its quad. Quad barrel 130mm nvm read wrongly
/wiki type 3 shell
as a matter of technicality all guns can target planes and ships, it's just a matter of whether you can hit it 
confeti gun good
It's dp usually dd gun
is there any way to increase the 3 a day limit for hard mode or is that it?
That's it, welcome to hard mode
Ah yes the most useless BB gun ever to try and deal 0 shelling damage
/wiki dual purpose

If wiki says so it doesn't exist
We know what guns we're getting. And Leipzig and Centaur augments
/wiki dp
No
just aim higher
Is there any diffreance between the 2 aux slots or they exactly the same?
Exactly the same
Quite a few
They're exactly the same except on specific ships like warspite
I never understood why they added that 410mm gun that exclusively fires type 3 shells
Bizarre historical quirk
And also cuz devs wanted to
There are actually quite a few strange things in the game that are explained by "bizarre historical quirk"
poorly implemented mechanic, like time-fuse AA
Just ... add a type 3 shell into the game like your type 91 APs ....
anyway #game-feedback that way
it's technically not even historically accurate because the type-3s were basically fireworks and barely scratched planes in practice
So... just like in-game then 
you can actually damage planes in-game, if you hit 

When does pr7 come out
"tomorrow"
soon ā¢ļø
After next maintenance which is in 25:30 hrs
Tomorrow
Epic
wait , today MT ?
Tomorrow
July 11
I literally said in 25 hrs 
You made it sounds like maint ends in 25h
Hmmmm I guess I did
Is there gonna be any new pr1 augments
Nope
Rip
Also with sovetsky soyuz would it be good to use chkalov and kron
Or is the faction buff insignificant
insignificant
Ok thx
you can pair her with chkalov and kron cause both are good ships not necessarily cause they are russian
Is samval for little academy dead?
it will come out after next maint
In any case here's the timer for maintenance start <t:1720681200:R> 
Here is alvitr boss DPS, all with +13 triple AP gun and +10 black white, considering that rupp gets some secondary guns and torps blocked and alvitr loses some boomerang spears and alvitr red skill is level 9
warspite good pogu
Doing less dmg than Warspite
Warspite good or Alvitr bad 
alvitr bad
Please refer to this Samvaluation for warspite
Samvaluation ā¢ļø ? 
Did we just coin a term for ship evals done by Sam?
All these years later, I'm still not sure if there's a pun in there I missed
warkai actually pulled ahead of ruppy
ig i overestimated ruppy
underestimated spoot
ive used spoot all the time back in the day and she was pretty disappointing
Justice for Warspoot
Yeah cause you are a newbie 
ive tried her out before with +13 stuff and she still disappointing
How do I re order my fleet so Helena stop tanking

go to a blue port(idk if that is one), order, fleet formation, then change as u like
oh thanks. I thought I reordered it but it turns out I didn't.
click on the fleet icon on the minimap
And then drag the ship as usual
or turn off the fleet lock, click on enemy, and reorder the formation
oh so that's what fleet lock did. Thank you
theres more features?
northampton 2 
Still gonna shit on your best fleet
huh I just realized you're doing faction fleet 
you should've used indomitable instead of ark royal
Oh God, serenity

Well, at least that wasn't as bad as putting Kear into a CV fleet with no other USS main...

ark royal in the same fleet as aurora and sirius is 
Don't stare at me Grey, stare at serenity and ruthlessly judge him
Wait who did that, waiiit I remember serenity doing it
Wha-
it was a mistake I forgot about kear skill 

"Forgot"
I'm putting my money on "just didn't know"
I forgot about new pr skills
I can't read
My man is still complaining about Yorky and Keary being weak
they're 7 days?
doesn't matter I still think indomitable is better than ark royal there 
they will be op after this update
Indomitable is better than Ark Royal

Apparently not OP enough for serenity yet 
Am I tripping or was hinden able to use 2 guns
Me when no Indomitable:
just depends on your use case 
hinden d30 can
hinden can use 2
her aa slot can equip a main gun at d30
Uh... yes lol
That's one of her most prominent features, even
indomitable will be op too after this update
She can use two CA guns , the other one replacing her AA gun
Oh wait itās d30 š
thats what i said
Anyways time to start pr6 grind
I heard new augments are coming
For centaur and lepizig yes
Centaur and Leipzig ye
Indomitable soon 
alsace augment when ?
Too lazy to log in, but I atleast have 200+ coobs for Vanguard
Soon as, somewhen next year 
patchnote said after the next next update
Indomitable is during Vanguard event rite?
Yep
She came with Vanny , so should be soon actually
Guess I'll just need to get lucky
Smootie, are you confusing Indomitable and Implacable again...
Yes


probably around this time next year, Implacable 
In a mainfleet of
Zwei, Soyuz, and FDG
Who should I replace for Alsace?
fdg
FDG easily
there's still musashi and york2 to be reruned
thus this time next year
what
What he means is somewhere around July next year
@steady beacon does adjusting Alsace into the mainfleet will affect the timing?
I'm already counting around 2.5 years after original run 

Hopefully earlier cuz I want her
idk why but for some reason i have like 43 T3 battleship retro fit and 20 T3 destroyer but then 0 of the others...i def didnt farm or buy or doing anything in particular so is there a reason why i got so many of these two specifically?
rng?
rng
unless you're telling me the next 12 months isn't enough to rerun Musashi and Yorktown II
It is what it is
i tought fdg is good but she replaced that easily ?
and that would be from where? like a stage or....?
it also probably comes from the daily hard mode stages what you have been farming daily
Maybe you didn't farm the stages the others drop from?
Or you just don't grind hard mode uneven you and use more of the other classes
she is good, but most UR BB are better
Did you too X-1 and X-3 or what?
-1 dd -2 cruiser -3 bb -4 cv
FDG is older then most of the accounts here , it's about time
i wouldnt say that replacing fdg is easy
which one better ? FDG /NJ ?
Uh
No, actually, I think FDG and Alsace have the slowest RLD in both cases...
You can try to still adjust the timing to get Alsace to go first but it's a bit cursed lol
If you're doing this month's Arbiter, just put Mk 7 or Mk 6 on all three and ignore the sync order
Trying to order them with HE is a waste of time
AP is a different story, ask me again next month
depends what you need
FdG is a better mobber than NJ
NJ for single target
FDG for mobbing
She's still a pretty decent Mobbing BB
id say fdg is more useful in general, but NJ is better in meta battle
full disclosure i have only farmed 12-1 and 1-1 hard.
1000% stoopid i know but back then i just wanted the quick clear for daily mission.
Pretty sure 1-1 hard doesnt drop ANY T3 retro lol

NJ is better for boss but also more easily replaced by newer rainbows for boss
FDG and Alsace has very different timings 
but like every rainbow BB we get just beats NJ in everything
Mk7 and Mk6? The dual aps?
It doesn't, only world 3 and above does
so i wouldnt use bulins on NJ if i didnt need to
Vanguard rerun tomorrow?
What, does your FDG fire before Soyuz or Bismarck?
She was my first. She got bulins, 125, a ring š
yeah so im hecka confused how i have so many...
At first i thought maybe we all naturally get this many but there's just more ships that used the other 2? Doesnt seem like it though...
Nah the HE guns
Read FDG skills , she should be closer to Nj timings , not Soyuz or Bismarck
NJ might be better than FdG in some stuff but FdG doesn't require you to use 4 UR Bulins that could be used on better BBs or CVs 
... So what the heck is your contention?
guyz help me how i can get bismacrk zwe?
you cant
You can't, not until a few years
Wait a really long time for her Rerun
wait for her event to get rerun

All I'm saying is that the firing order will be FDG last and Alsace last if either is in a fleet with Soyuz and Bismarck (assuming equal guns, naturally)
If you wish to contradict this, please present your evidence
what is rerun?
when an event gets ran again
8 days
nobody knows
given the current scheduling I'd say in around 1.5 year's time
Probably somewhere around 2025 or even 2026 if it gets delayed
okay, thank you guys ā¤ļø
is wichita meta good? or do i need to wait a couple more days to ask
glass cannon, I can test her but there's not much point to
Fdg should fire before Soyuz and Bismarck zwei if all use the the same equipment. She has rld buffing by skill
Wait you already got get MLB? 
...
FdG has timing problems because her reload thing goes on and off every other shot
Did I miss a day or something? Cuz I only got 22k points
Here's a suggestion... TRY that and tell me what happens...
Oh
Fdg still fire last
:ranchSexPopcorn:
You did.
Have you ever... even USED FDG in triple BB before...?
i see i guess i wont prioritize her then
and yeh 22k you're missing at least a day
Even with buff, her buff isnt permanent
I also don't get max points from helping iirc
if you get 73pt assists then 1 day later
but 22k you definitely missed more than just 75pt assists
I think I missed a whole day
Looks like you almost missed 2.
Yeah I'm definitely not wrong , FdG jumps nj , who is faster then ships like Bismarck
of actual fights, and 2 of supporting iirc
spreadsheet spotted
it's just for charting META ladder
I vaguely remember FdG going ahead then after NJ depending on cycle
Seriously, if you can prove that, feel free...
Looking over my recordings from May, FDG can jump Soyuz by second rotation
Maybe Bismarck by fourth? Too lazy to check that, but if you want to show it, please do
... Actually, you probably can even get Alsace in front of Soyuz by second rotation if you know what you're doing, but that's a whole other story...

Do I strictly need twin57 for w15, if so what's the minimum
I feel like I've told you thrice already, you don't NEED the best, but if you are missing too many bests, then you fail
i dont think its necessary, but it does help out a lot
it was the make or break for me cuz of how shit my stuff is lmao
anyone know if this main gun is good or bad? Just got it from a tech pack
terrible
use the purple mk6 if you need good gun
This was all you needed to point out
That's the gun you will use for most cases
Mb Bismarck is faster then nj , soyuz was the one slower then NJ .Either way my point was fdg odd salvo buff effects the order of BBs. My fdg jumped nj by 2nd salvo and stayed faster then her.
should I disassemble all the trash gold gear? or keep 1 for collection?
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/User:Thebombzen/Safe_To_Scrap_MK_II Maybe give this a read

kk
If you wanna save one go ahead but you won't give it much use
I feel like the intent of my original message got last somewhere in the muck of all those unrelated concerns tbh
It wasn't even about FDG fundamentally, it was that Alsace is a PITA to time
What I remember before that is me confusing Indom with Implac 
They're both pita to time
What's pita
pain in the arse
pain in the as
Well, fair, but I'm not losing a 12% debuff because I can't time FDG right
Oh never heard that before 

~~Added to the list of english slangs
~~
The solution I've discovered is use her with Kear and Musashi... no worries there

alsace is PITA to time ? , so far my alsace always shoot after my helena scan tho
Nah, time to Helena is sweet
It's getting her order right with her sister BBs
Who is in Alsace class?
Flandre
Musashi is still faster than kear right? I assume her rld buff is carrying a bulk of her timings
They don't look alike at all
... with other ur bbs
Probably not completely correct, but anyway
I'm using "sister" here not in the class sense, regardless
It isn't that hard to get it to have alsace go off with helena
Its just that alsace snails behind her peers
~~Just make all BBs have the same rld š§ ~~
one is vichy and the other is iris
alsace faster than musashi
If one wants to get technical
Flandre is Alsace variant 1, 3x triple 380mm guns
Alsace is Alsace variant 3, 3x quadruple 380mm guns
But this is gph so
Huh? Alsace is still faster than musashi? I could've sworn musashi can outspeed with her rld buff even for a little
Nah, Alsace is faster
200 aff 181.5 musa and 187 als
do i need agir d30 for w14
Dev 40 
Fs10
RLD isn't everything
And tech 
trip 410 is slower than champy aswell yea
Sucks that ijn 410 is slower than champ too
Solution: join the Georgia gun cult
Well it is what it is when you have exceptional damage hindered by a faction gun lock and slow ass reload

cannot im alr in musashi cult
Who said those are mutually exclusive?
We accept all BBs, including Musashi 
Musashi is still top heavy bb dps right?
Do support carriers need to be leveled for W15?
yes, lvl adv matters

assumming no gimmicks yea, the diff between bz + 2 other from the 3 is minimal tho
~~No I'm not trying W15 yet btw
~~
Why use bbs , CVs sre basically better at everything 
I don't have neither of the recommended BBs nor Aquila 
Do they have a replacement?
yes many
are there PR in pr5/6 that are good
Harbin is pretty decent
consult /w15 tierlist
currently i need a better frontline, and maybe CV
Chkalov was too iirc 
chkalov is really good
The suchi video? 
the bot command
chakalov bout to drop from the best NP CV real soon
word
There's only 2 NP CV so far 
Also most people probably use volga more than chkalov 
I can't seem to find the w15 tierlist
i feel like you took that about 400x times more seriously than what it was
oh nvm it's a doc 
its a full guide
I think I'm gonna wait for Sashi
why, you arent fcing anyway no?
I think I underestimate my capabilities ngl 
with my super protocore saving method ill be able to get all 4 UR gears in gearlab, but is it actually worth to grab all of them
dude not fcing just mean you can get away with alot of shit
like its so much easier than you imagine
tenrai is good, plygun is good, but the rest i have no idea
whats fcing
fullclear
full clear
Full clearing
fullclear
W15 no sashi no aquila, its easier than u think
drake gun is lowest prio
which one is drake gun
triple 234
But my cats also suck and I don't have much tech too
I might give it a try next month and see how it goes
easier than you think feat: 7 rainbow ships
and volga
Oh I gotta farm JdA 
would be ideal
No laffii is sus
Oh that too, my Laffii is 4/6 
is it maint now i havent checked
no
i fced without jda
smoothie if u want w15 planning open a thread and post ur dock yk the rules
Maint will be in 24 hours from now
Laffi is 4/6
what are we getting in the next patch anyway i didnt hear about an event aside from pr7
Oh
That's it
Pr7 patch
Augment modules for centaur and leipzig
which is better? using 2 different feelt or just 1 main fleet?
dead week? damn alright oil saving week
It's too early in the month to expect an event all of a sudden.
any event comin up soon tm?
What campaign stage are you at? Cuz one fleet is enough up until W9 or 10
Vanguard rerun next week
Wym oil saving, gotta farm cdc lol
nice
depends on where u are at, one fleeting is advised till u reach oilcap and u dont have resources/options for 2nd fleet
after u should expand to 2 fleets
10-3
Then you should have or work towards 2 fleets
By w10 you should be stable enough to be making a 2nd fleet
oh oki, thanks
wait vanny rerun is in 1 week?
true
seem so
but im poor, how i can get better guns?
We can help you with that if you drop your dock in a thread, sorted by level and leaving out commons and rares
ah shit coin saving time
tech boxes for now then gearlab and research
Finally, 2nd AFCT 
time to get my first and only AFCT 
idk any meta. i just playing when im free time in work
in a thread
oh sorry
Also read again what I said, all your dock sorted by level and filter out commons and rares 
We can help you with that if you drop
Sorry 
Between Kron and Vanguard, who to mlb first? I have all the other UR and DR
can we expect any UR bulin from rerun? or do they not do that
same in milestone, half points req
Ur events rerun always 30k for bulin?

first run 30k, rerun 15k
Who got the most aa between Guam, Laffey II and Shimanto
If this is for W15 you basically just slap the three of them together in mob fleet
Pretty sure Shimanto and Laffey II are pretty close to each other from what I remember
(Tho the W15 command also shows gears so that would technically answer your question as well)
Laffey is noticeably worse then Guam and shimato , with shimato being best
I think mebot has a AA sheet too 
Mebot mentioned

Isuzu 
sasuga sandy , namba wan
This is updated for augment. 
where is guam vh 
She throws her VH to the planes 
???????
Becareful it's laggy
Or atleast it lagged my PC when I was playing some game
You got a link?
Isn't it Nagami?
Yeah it's in Nagami's website
Isn't that ehp ?
source : trust me bro
slamheart guide link to it isnt updated 
Damn slamheart 
O I'll update RIGHT NOW
take ur time 
I didn't know u could find these from the meowfficer nodes in opsi. Is there a list of stuff that could be found out there ?
wiki
/wiki operation sirenn
you put in an extra N
In the wiki
Oho
/wiki operation sirennn
No wiki pages found.
There is new UR on 11? or Just PR7 release? Thank you
PR7 + Augments for Centaur and Leipzig
Thanks
No pre evaluation for new ships?
Sam said after next maint #gameplay-help message
18 Vanuard rerun
Once they actually release, wait 24h. Can only evaluate their hotness, cat wins.
The current event released like two weeks ago though
the fella said pre evaluation, prolly meant pr ships
Incase there is uncertainty about Sam's word, he mentions after next maint CN SIDE.
So basically, once they are actually released.
Ah
Well, we can't pre-evaluate anything but hotness as Hassat said
We literally know nothing about them apart from that (and their stat wheels; consult Thorin for more info)
Ah cuz of PRe evaluation, got it
Maybe I should add an evaluation to my predictor, it just looks at the generated stats and if they're below average it says collection only, otherwise good or if the stats are like top 20% or sth great 
Skill +20% stat 
I'll look into that lmfao
I meant the ironblood ones
Should I pull for these ships?
Reasons you should pull for the ships, in no particular order:
Waifu
Collection
Better than some permanent options at their hull type (only for gold ships, check the evaluations linked above for more information).
*Note: There are 2 more UR events scheduled for 2024, plus potential (unconfirmed) UR rerun events, spend cubes wisely.
hi, I need some advice, I have 3 bulins, should I upgrade one of these ships or wait for the next ur event?
oh not because of the pun
i just thought asking for "pre" evaluation of ships that have been out for like 2 weeks is less likely than ships releasing in ~2 days
should i do first mk7 or second wyvern?
by 3 I assume you have 2 more you can exchange
just go for Shinano, next is VG rerun and you kind of have enough UR BBs to cover for now
also don't slac on coining fdg 
need help for survivability aux
Personally, unless you're wanting to play the Wichita fight seriously (which probably isn't a good idea rn) I'd go for second Wyvern
its literally just double toolkit for shima
most dd use double toolkit, if you wanna minmax can use some other aux with 500+ hp with toolkit
Action Report
uh, iirc it buffs fp...? not useful for shima
just use goldburn or smth as second aux
alr
OK thank you
hmmm ic, I still have question about research, In Newcomer mission, there's always a mission where you need atleast research per season right, My question is should I bother to dev 30 them and fate sim or focus in PR4?
You can use coin on older season and do research for season 4
Ćgir and Anchorage are still amazing ships
Is flandre as good as fdg for mobbing?
no
Hi
I think I've read a guide giving some tips/direction on how to raise tech points for shipyard quickly but I can't find it, anyone got it?
iirc there was tips for each faction
ah it's this one yes, thank you a lot guys 
my concern is i dont have as good BB fleet on light compared to USS cv fleet and possibly new pr7 having a light figter upgrade
anyone tried mogador in w15? can she survive?
Wait, so do you have the USS CV fleet?
i have yk2 enterprise avp
Yes mog fine in w15 but need to do something with her lack AA
Oh then
If you have that for anti-light, you don't really need to worry too much about doubling up an anti-light BB fleet imo
Unless you want to use Kear alongside YII
The other question is whether you intend to go into W13+ in the near future, since that's arguably the area where having Wyverns is the most helpful... if you're not too concerned with progressing campaign right now, you can afford to put more Wyverns a little behind in priority
im doing 14-1 but yeah i guess at one point ill do it in the near future; need a bit more flapjacks and +13 gear
Ngl, ever since CVs died hard in PvP, my regard for the Wyvern has dropped off precipitously...
And I would value my Mk 7s more than my Wyverns 
Doesn't help that I only "really" used one in W15
Eh Mk7 is a small improvement, Wyvern isn't
Especially considering that you won't +13 Mk7 that soon if you're somewhat new
Ye, which is why I think I'm a bad source of advice for new players 
Can't wait to get yelled at when I finish the guide
The way each research gear seems to be rendered in EN
The lack of capital "M" in "mod.A" triggers my OCD ngl
I know R7 is coming tmrw but do we have any event? 
Hmm so bearcat float instead of flying?
free skin event only
where's my datamine
Augments for Centaur/Leipzig
Collab skin 7-day mini-event
Vanguard rerun is the week after
In my basement, follow me to see it
Can't mine data that we don't have yet lol
Give it uhhhh... about 18hrs-ish
datamine only up after cn predl
thank you a lot 
Vanguard, BB gang
Sorry, I'm in the CV gang 
there are candy down there? Oji san
Yes
~~Should I pulk for vanguard though ~~
there isnāt candy down here
u should use ur 44 free tickets and pull afterwards for vanguard if u dont have her yes
Ic
does spearfish win ryuusei if only rocket hits? assuming +13 for both planes and light armor 
so Bearcat float is not UR?
Should be SR
if only rockets? 
it needed 1.2 torps to beat saiun at same + iirc
i see, thanks 
These are the calcs I did trying to check for this against Wichi
+12 
Plane plate poor
Soon to be even poorer
Spearfish rocket=65*4=260= 1 ryuusei torp
Tbqh, on account of Wichi liking to hug the edges of the screen, I'd personally keep Ryuusei on Implac (timing is also a bit nicer)
If using Shangri or Enty in that cursed 4-strike setup, then I'd be more inclined to bet on Spear
u forgor the mods
+13 vs +13 vs +12 btw
Should I continue? PR7 is tomorrow butā¦
hellow guys, i would like to ask what are the recommended fleets and gears for w15
finish what you started, you don't need to go straight to PR7 when it starts
#bot-spam /w15
Could my oil survive? 
you don't look like you'll make much progress in PR7 even if you switched, just take your time
not like the ships are usable right away anyways
is it okay if i +13 roombas?
I would hold off until u think u need to +13 sth
U will probably only need +13 aa for 15 and 13h
And the 15 example fleet doesnt use roombas last time I checked
it's okay but not recommended 
is there a gold oil ratio graph for w15?
I canāt read 
me neither
how many BP is needed for DR fs 5?
/devbp
215 iirc
what do you mean so much protocore?
215 bps = 4300 protocore 
i mean yea thats alot of protocore, but one just do research normally and not use protocore right? 
is he buying ship BP using protocore?
i believe some do buy ship bps with protocore 
no i had 266 bps of agir
sold 51 to get 1k protocor
which rainbow weapon should I get
ah, then thats fine 
between those two get 457
Tenrai
If tenrai and quad 152 already finished pick 457
Thank you guys 
you're welcome š
you're cooper
i'm welcome?

youāre mfw enty buffed again

Who do I give 457
depends on content
all would want it except sushi in some places and non would want it in other places
Is OpSi good answer
not for me 
HE or AP ?
for opsi depends what ure facing but most often than not u would want to benefit from helena therefore running good 20s guns
I use 0 457 in opsi 

and u might want also for ur other 2 bbs to benefit from bz blackhole therefore having similar timing to her
i use 1 457 in opsi
Does it count as "using" 4 if one is padding cross-fleet? 
use is use
no gatekeeping
personally was using one on FDG before i changed my mob fleet BB to Musashi 
i have it mostly on either kear or uvh
These timers are just confusing, I just want good gun on my ships 
just do two BB mob fleet
BB FdG is my mob, I can put it on her?
yes
its a good gun u can use it for campaign or med/heavy bossing, but u just might have better options
And that's how the backline was armed with all Z-flags
Isn't it too early for a boss
how VG ended up with rainbow oxytorps
15-3 has 2 bosses
15-4 has 3
Crazy
so the La-9 is the UR Plane? 
What about your 6x ryuusei fleet 
i just realized that the update preview has images of the new gear
15-3? there's 2 bosses
What's the type of the new UR plane ?
Fighter
waht should i set for researh pri: the pr6 as i need bps for kesarg and hidenburg, or pr4/3 for bps of equpis i need?
Are you close to finishing 6?
At this point wait for tomorrow to decide
Let us see what pr7 brings
not 3, if u meant 4/5 then u can move onto the next season if u got it completed + a ur gear from research depending how close u are
focus 4 then..
go back to PR4
dont jump around seasons u just get a bunch of incomplete ships
who to mlb nest>
wait for Vanguard
what is it?
Vanguard rerun is in 1 week, one of the top bbs
ah ok
does shinano xfleet effect depend on her level or the stats of the attacking fleet?
her stats, buffs of the attack fleets flag
