stop using discord copy smh
im sidetracked busy with other stuff rn
Iirc it's just a message
I think you can write a literal wish, but in the past I think just well-wishes have been accepted
so doesn't HAVE to be an actual photo or video?
Just an in-game screenshot will do iirc
sure you can look at the replies if you want an example
iirc its just a photo of AL and some text gets accepted, i usually take some random screenshot and some text about the mongolian navy and it works, last year was richard nixon
ok thank you
Whatever it takes for free gems
screenshot saratoga skin
wish for more skin
What armor type is the CV guild boss compiler
Heavy
No wonder Sara gets so many skins
It's all the result of Nagami's painstaking efforts
if you do test this pls ping, i have some old data from when Als first released comparing table BiZ to table Als comp but it was inconclusive and also was an old setup
Definitely 
So Alsace is second-highest BB DPS now?
no but technically it is possible
Or is it more because of her buff?
her preload gives her a lead in total damage which makes up for her lower per salvo damage
also the buff being rather fat and applying to everyone for a while (and already on a good sync schedule) is very nice
does bulin take up dock space?

I have 4 UR bulins now should I mlb Alsace or Vanguard? And in which fleet should I put them in?
So according to wht I have currently which UR should I level up first shimakazu or vanguard?
Ok thanks, how about vanguard? Where does she fit in?
Vanguard for sure, it's not even a competition
But isn't shimakazu also a really good one?
She is, but considerably less applicable and more difficult to use
Vanguard goes into almost all meta fleets, Shima's only meta for PvP
Assuming those are your campaign fleets, you'd remove Nelson, move Alsace there and then use Vanguard in the boss fleet with Soyuz
Also, is Shima meta in PvP right now? 
this my boss fleet someone said nagato is bad here who can replace her?
As with all gacha URs yes, but she will be significantly less impactful for a player than Vanguard, who is a current major component in BB comps
Shimakaze is currently sitting worse than Unzen
Oh, right. She got booted for JinM
Chat is it worth to grind for sea hornet in d2
Well, it's not quite that simple
But this is gph, not pvp, so no especial need to delve any deeper
What fleet is this, boss or mob?
I
Ahh I see. Well that’s going to take a while to get another 4 UR bullins….
but my BB already complet? maybe since i have NJ , FD amd UVH
boss
Do you have any 2x 1000lb fighters?
it was shinano howe doy before
Replace Nagato with enty then, move Musashi to flag
I got... 2 plapjacks and thats all 
And it's a very meh UR BB fleet lol
Like one of the worst possible ones
FdG and especially UvH both prefer to be on mob to begin with
oh i thought musashi needed not to be flag couse of her third skill
Vanguard is used on almost every strong BB comp
NJ, FdG and UvH are all super replaceable by comparison
i see
so which one should i swop with vanguard?
You can consider it
The Sea Hornet drop rate appears to be pretty good
But you need to consider that the point/oil (assuming cap) is lowest in D2, so you trade point efficiency
Also, you sacrifice the chance to roll for Jervis from D3
It's worth considering, but you should weigh the risks and benefits and decide for yourself if you want to
You'd replace UvH first
FdG IMO
Because UvH doesn't like to sync
What are the better BB’s out there? Soyuz? Alsace? Vanguard?
She syncs just fine, it's exactly double speed
Yes
And ofc Bis Zwei, who is the main one
ok thx
Hmmm yeah i guess but i assume jervis isn't that needed consider i always fight bosses that can bust nuts amount of dmg
sea hornet is almost the same to plapjack yes?
FdG is the one that's tough to sync, because she's slow but has a buff that makes every other shot a little faster.
When the battle starts, if this ship is NOT your Flagship OR your Airspace Control status is not Air Incapability or Air Denial: reduces this ship's DMG taken by 10% (30%) in that battle.
The latter condition is so easy to achieve, there's no reason to not use her as flag if she's the solo BB
Jervis is alright
Do you need her? Probably not
And you can always get her from points shop if you must
Both carry 2x 1000lb bombs (so same surface damage)
Flapjack has better interception capability, but the Sea Hornet has faster cooldown
Sea Hornet also takes A LOT of grinding to get enough BP for
Also a couple of other small differences, but none I imagine you care for at this stage of the game
Isnt it just 15
Ok yeah fair I suppose
It is indeed just 15
Yeah these are my campaign fleets. So is it better to put Alsace in mob to replace Nelson or put her in boss to replace Saratoga? Since I can’t mlb vanguard yet…
25 was a bit of misinformation from yesterday 
URs are more valuable in boss in general
Alright thanks!
Gotta grinds for those fighters since hellcat does almost zero dmg 
It may still take you to 30k points or more just to get enough BP for one
Alsace has the flexibility to work incredibly well in both
Vanguard doesn't work as well in mob
The damage difference is pretty minimal overall
Idk i'd rather to grind for it over grinding the eletronics in opsi
You say that, but grinding in events is far more painful than it looks
It's made worse by the fact that the event literally is only lasting a week
Just make sure you know what you're getting into, is what I would say
So if you don't get 15 it's bust
Gotta pray 
Gotta pray real life doesn't get in your way yes
You want 5+ flapjacks eventually so additional 2x1000 is quite useless but you do you.
Or Lady Luck abandons you at this crucial juncture
does it worth to get 2nd AFCR?
100%
I say this as someone who farmed 4 or 5 the last time this event ran, it's not worth it

Opinions may differ
As someone who did the same, I found it very worth it
the issue is they're all gonna get replaced by Flapjacks anyway
flajacks?
I wonder when that's gonna happen
Good day Commanders, I am in need of advice for clearing the late-game chapters
I'm still relatively new who should I focus my resources on so far I focused based on waifu, I don't understand really the ABC of tierlist and today with the free ticket pulled the new ur. Also for daily been pulling on new jersey is she any good. Been pulling based on waifu not on stats since I still don't know much.
sooner than you might think
you still have to contend with the attorcious drop rates though and there is really not much worth farming for in terms of event points considering this is a rerun so you'll be grinding out D2 almost exclusively for Sea Hornet BPs very quickly
NJ good. Pulling nj bad
why are you hiding your lower rarity ships?
I am referring to myself, who has yet to replace the Sea Hornet in the end
Six Flapjacks on the support fleet, and not a single one in the fleet itself sufficed just fine
As a new player, you will not use a lot of golds and rainbows at the beginning
ty homie i gotta get those bps 
can you just unfiltered it?
I don't even know I just though yellow ur good
its too expensive to upgrade too many of them at once
Anyway @sinful elk , again... just know what you're getting into
It's a risk, so make sure you understand it
And if you do, I wish you the best of luck 
not all of SR aren't good imo

early on, portland is one of the best tanks you can get, and unicorn (retrofit) is one of the best healers in the game
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/early_ship_recommendations
Read these 2 guides
Probably shouldn't have crafted 6 for the support fleet but all of them ended up getting replaced.


It's almost as if there are multiple ways to play the game
is she any good?
yes, also #trophy-room
support fleet can just use skyrocket and fws for 0 cost 
in my defense, I was rushing to clear W15 day 3
i wish i could get another flap
Assuming 0 limit break for both should I MLB Vanguard or Shinano first
in what should i spend my oil man i cant complete the easy beginner missions 
depends on ur other URs
sorties, event rn precisely
There's nothing worthwhile in beginner really
Yes, but why bother when I've got enough 1000lb bomb fighters to go around already 
Other URs are everyone after Yorktown 2 event including reruns except Unzen and Shimakaze
then shinano
do you have Haku at Dev 30
I do not have Haku at all
ty
Still grinding for her
the real value in Yorkii's event is the plane
I just seen the news about a new ship is there any new event coming soon ??
yes
should i keep going even with low morale?
do you have a good gear for haku?
Ye next week maint
Should I focus on Vanguard then to boost NJ, Bismarck Zwei, and Soyuz
nope, let em rest
do u not have alsace?
Oh I do have Alsace, forgot
vanny would bring little value if u got bz alsace and soyuz compared to shinano esp when u finish haku aswell
Opsi boss fleet with Alsace and Soyuz alr there. Should I put uvh in or vanguard in? Considering I have helena and ply in front
vanguard
Ogey ty!
how do you find out if Special burns stack?
also do they get refreshed by a regular burn (HE)
if they have different burn ids
if same burn id refresh if different stack
/wiki burn
do you guys farm to exchange the general pr bps (basically 150 protocores) from rerun?
me no
no
I have no use for more prototype cores at this point
Thanks for the link
holy
np
Out of what I own do I push sandy and shinao to 125 next?
sure
how many doodads do you get from SP each day?
Is a 2nd Vanguard worth it
800
ty 
does the bb/cv timing website automatically include the skill rld of bbs/cv or do i have to put it manually?
manually
okay then
how do i get more yellow gear
boxes early, research and gearlab and event shop are the sources for gear
ok thanks
Also not all gold gear is good
are these 2 teams going to be okay for doing the hard stages of the event? Fleet 2 for mobs
2nd fleet looks dead
Right fleet looks fine
Left fleet... could potentially struggle
Perseus has no buisness being in boss fleet
Quite apart from her not being MLB 
okay
Actually, hold a sec, I take that back...
Right fleet is 3 CAs 
first fleet also doesnt need that many CAs
the best i could do with the timing
You prob want something that can throw shit at subs
both look dead frankly
i dont have any rld tech yet sadly
Oh yeah and your Owari is currently not getting her buff and hard whiffing half of her barrage at that position
Owari should be flag ship?
levels aren't brilliant and there are some very questionable ship choices, not to mention there's probably gear issues which cuts you even less slack
Who is this fleet fighting against?
opsi
Yes
BBs should also be Flagship in the first place since they're more bulky
And if the flagship dies, the whole fleet goes down
Oh God that's cursed 
Do you only have a single radar?
i have 2
why aren't you using it then?
idk which ship i put the radars
All if at all possible
do i do double radar + admiralty?
no
You can't put both at once
i mean like radar on vanguard and fdg?
yes
Ye
wait lemme try the timing
White/yellow shell + AFCT/HPFCR
Eh
Why timing though
They fire in the optimal order just like that
just as a heads, you can't fine tune BB timings quite as much with CVs
who prioritizes the admiralty?
Alsace
yeah im having a hard time timing vanguard and fdg
how so
not yet, i plan on doing plymouth after i get the tech needed
OK, AFCT on Als then
FDG falling behind?
the 50% rld buff from fdg is too much for alsace
alsace gets to shoot last
Routine hazard of using FDG
instead of fdg
it's something you'll just have to live with
It's near-impossible to work around, just go with it
welp, i tried sadly it wouldnt work
Def not worth messing up your auxes for
Has always been the biggest PITA when working with FDG 
agreed 
Oh nevermind, I can't even use this team for hard stage, wants me to use battlecruiser, and I only have Repulse and Renown
guess ill just live with alsace shooting last
Unless can I get away with using Repulse and Renown in my fleet?
Question, have you actually looked at the hard node requirements for the dupe maps yet?
you'll just have to drag one of them for the sake of being able to use the 2nd fleet at all
you're definitely not one fleet clearing with what you have
This probably better then if I'm using them all limit broken
Actually it's not working cuz now I have no healers on the mob fleet
you dont need a healer in the boss fleet
#trophy-room is a few channels below
question does it matter if you 3 star war archive missions?
Were faction fleets ever good for anything?
no, there's no reason to do so
thanks!
outside of memes? no
how long is the operation siren thing? if i were to start rn how long would it take to finish it all? a week?
I mean, i dont know what to do , do i lv her up so i can lb her with dupes?
if you have the spare resources yes, if not just hold onto the dupes for now, there's a good chance you'll use them later on
Btw, about shinano.. do i use my 2 UR bullins for her? Or see if i can get anything from current banner
see if you get Vanguard, if you do she get's priority, if not by the time the event ends, Shinano get's them
Oke
Is indomitable good? where does she shine best?
she's decent, and she shines the best in W15 support fleets
How many supply drop vouchers from OpSi are you guys getting? I do the monthly normal fight, and daily missions and all the map coordinates fights and I get around 4k of vouchers... is there a way to get more?
Will i get more if i do the hard fight? I only do the normal one
yes
Should I be using my Hatakaze meta in my mob fleet? seems like she's going to help keep the others alive
no, cruise pass meta ship are all bad for pve

Would it be better to LB Vanguard or Shinano?
Assuming neither have been LB’d at all.
if you have enough ur bb imho nano, otherwise vanny
Not sure if this is “enough”
do you have Haku at Dev 30?
Yes
Shinano first then
Ok
Which BC is better. Seydlitz or Alvtir
What gun should I give the Alvtir then
I'm assuming mk6 for a middle ground-
mk6 for general content
Then what about for EVERYTHING. Mobs and bosses
~~Recommending general content, excommunicated from gph 🇫 ~~

thats everything where its not hard enough to bother about ur guns
turn him into a blue name
Ok that's all I need
Is there any #bot-spam for OpSi boss hard mode
/sirenstats has opsi bosses various stats and armor if thats what ure looking for
is there some kind of list or website that tells which characters are the best at each role?
no
Looking help for fleet
It's /thread and not in #bot-spam but in #gameplay-help
Okie ty ima do thread maybe tom
ull have to extrapolate from various tierlists and fleetbuilding guides and/or ur own experience and wiki for comparision
and then apply it to the content and then see whats the best for ur required roles
Do ships gain any passive mood regeneration or just dormed ships?
No wonder why I never notice my subs drop below 119. 
Can someone give me the tech points for dragon empry
You knew by day 3 flapjack gud?
and you have way more flapjack than I do
im using odin rn. whats another BC i should look into using?
Where's a good place to learn about fleet building?
let's not ask about that and consider other's feelings 
Was there another announcement stream thingy?
yes
Do we know when the new event will happen? End of month?
Any content creators that do recaps?
would it be troll to farm d2 in the event instead of d3 to get the sea hornet drops
When they gonna kai Maryland? 
🔮 .
Thursday
Oh right after this?

is there gonna be another UR ship in that new event or will we have a break for a while

no new UR ship
u can check this channel for the upcoming content
https://discord.com/channels/456397991847395339/1263774805291962368
Maybe I shouldn’t have went ham on vanny , cuz I’m down to like 450 cubes
Alright so 5 new ships and one is in milestone?
Isn't it 2 SRs and an elite?
lots of skins, looks like
My eyes are deceiving me
Are they all French?
yes
How do I initiate a meta showdown
Play operation siren
Are bomb shell visual explosions scaled based on the shell's actual splash or would CB guns have the same explosion size as BB guns?
Is there any SR worth upgrading after hood and enterprise? And which elite ships should I use my bulins on?
🦄
Jervis is solid up til w14 and indom good for w15 support
Is that all your ships? You don't have hood or enterprise?
He has nelson
Who's in the medal shop
Hood. I currently only have 61 medals. Can prob get her by end of the month. And enterprise from beginner rewards
replace long island with sara for now
javelin + jarvis
You can get Hood right now if you retire hiei-chan, clevelad, and some others
Maybe the two indianapolises
Jarvis isn't a ship in the game...
Jervis right
If I replace long island with hood. Who do I replace for enterprise?
Replace penn with hood and long island with enterprise
After hood is at least level 70 and mlb
Got it thank you!
It appears that Massachusetts SHS and 457mm have the same explosions both with and without gear skins
And CB guns too
Thank you too. I'll work on jervis after hood and enterprise
we got much better options than jervis
Better ask again after you finish hood and enterprise
Oh okay
w14 is far and w15 is farer
Is prinz eugen not worth upgrading?
not worth
And if you have extra purple bulins, they can go to tech points like German ships or collection bands like Yorktown/Hornet
Yeah I currently have 7-9 extra purple burlins
I should be farming D3 right.. or should I think about D2 for sea hornets too
farm d3 and ignore sea hornets
Was thinking of using them for javelin
What gear should I build for a mission
wdym specifically
Javelin is not a good play this early when you already have laffey. Unless you have z23 too and can get ayanami for TRP stat padding
Idk I gotta build one for a mission and I don’t wanna waste mats
Or I could just build a purple one actually
which mission are you referring to exactly?
can u ss the mission
Or should I use them to get eagle union tech points for anchorage?
Yorktown and Hornet will give you manjuu too
/gearlab
oh, well try to craft a good gear piece from /gearlab
or just a cheap free purple one for completeness sake pref a prereq to a good gear
Ok I'll work on them then. Thank you
Are ship blueprints from the guild shop worth it?
Ok thx
free protocore so may as well if you mean research BPs
I don’t know who these are
They say the name
season 3 research ships
i went to 200 pulls for vanguard and ended up only getting her once from pulling.. is it best to just give up getting more copies now? when do we think we'll get another UR, that might decide whether or not i have enough UR bulins
dont waste cubes to get more than 1 copy
1 copy is enough, if u also happen to hit the pity thing then thats ok
you should have stopped at the first copy to begin with unless you were really close to pity and short on UR Bullins
and to answer your 2nd question, next UR event should be the JP Anni event in September
im super short on UR bulins, have a new jersey sitting at 3 star still xd
You shouldn't be pulling for dupes in the first place regardless of if it's a UR or not
And you'll just have to sit tight and slowly get the UR Bullins, but at this rate I'd prob hold off on using them until the Sept UR comes out
what
UR bulin income = like 2 per month with battlepass?
4 per 2 months with cruise
better to be super short on UR bulins than to be super short on UR
- respective ur event milestones
have they updated the gearlab
its up to date
which should eventually settle at ~8 a year so 2.66 a month
100kai is best on kitakaze 
8 a year = 2.66 a month? im confused
8 ur from event milestones?
so you can expect 32 UR bulins in 1 year 😮 that's a lot more than i thought
Which is better? Vanguard or New Jersey?
for mlb prio vanguard
even with the new gear?
mk7 batch was the latest gearlab gear and its there
what new gear...
if its not there its not worth crafting
If you mean the stuff from last week, that's PR7 not gear lab
i mean the gearlab update
they added this very quick dd gun
from GB
It's in the picture
they also did 2 events now with 2 URs in them and jp is very highly expected to be the 3rd
it isn't as many as u think it is TBH
unless someone sac dupes on reruns or goes intentionally to pity on multiple banners ( UR priority ) they will have bunch ships lying around on the dock on hold for who knows how much time 
Very highly expected by who?
Is there anyway to quickly catch up on rainbow bullens? I'm like 8 behind rn
u can 💳 dupes on ur banners
out of rainbows what is recommended to prioritize +13ing?
tenrai and skyraider
what rainbows u got ? they dont all fight plates unless prototypes
Pretty much everyone expects JP anni to be a UR event
sushi meant the double ur thing
only got 8 rainbow upgrade parts rn (also i probably trolled with that +12 wyvern but it is what it is)
tenrai
+13 457s 🤢

+13 457 isn’t even the worst thing possible, the +12 wyvern tho
both are pretty bad choices
not rly
also for subs how do i decide when to use this over oxytorp for example?
You can just decide to always use this
u can oxytorp when target doesnt move out of range from ur torps
woaw
⏲️
can i join?
is vanguard worth it to build with all the new bb's coming out, I don't have mushi or bismark 2
what ur mlb bbs u got
only a few tbh
shes a UR bb, just cause there are some other UR bbs thats 1% better doesnt make her bad
CUrrently using FdG for mobbing fleet. Which BB replaces her?
depends on ur cube stock tbf if u wanna go all out
depends where, in w14 musashi can replace her or bz for 3*
in w15 alot of rainbow bbs can replace her
I got vanguard alr, got lucky enough to pull her within a few pulls
do u have any other non mlb-ed UR ?
no
Icic thanks
then u can raise her
she mainly for bossing?
considering ur options yes

Out of mogador vangaurd and kron who should I raise. I have all ur bbs other than sashi
how many bullins do you have?
neither then, just hold onto them and see what happens for the time being
Thinking of switching PR focus away from PR4 as I am done with Agir and I plan to coin Hakuyuu. Should PR focus should I do next? PR7?
hakuyuu cannot be coined unless u mean u wanna wait for haku coining for now
5 would be next
but u should finish haku or at least d30 her
Yeap. Though I read its better to focus on the highest PR first?
depends always, 7 would take prio however over 6
do you have 2 Tenrais?
Nope only 1
Is Foch meta worth building up or is she not worth it?
have you bought all the prints from the prototype shop yet?
How much trp does temperance do? main tank Heinrich dies in 50s but main tank Felix has 20% HP left after 80s
only left 5 prints
and how many prints short are you of a 2nd Tenrai right now?
if I buy the 5, i am short of 38
Been awhile since I looked at bb rankings. Who should be my mob flagship out of those? Soyuz? Or fdg still?
mob fleet flag for what?
Opsi
you're not leaving PR4 anytime soon then, finish up your 2nd Tenrai before leaving, switch to gear focus
Tenrai is that impt?
yes
and also why 2?
I have Musashi there myself
She's the only one I'm missing
because 2 is relatively easy and quick to obtain and you don't typically use more than 2
Tenrai OP
FDG on mob then between the 2
Then biz alsace and soyuz for boss? Or nj?
because 3 means you are farming and farming isn't progression
hein is lower ehp on all except norm3 temp columns on mebot tho
How much lower?
there's also -5% HP every 10s, if that's removed then Felix would have had 55% HP left after 80s and Heinrich had 25% left after 50s
like felix is on 1.32, 1.06 of hein on norm1 and 2 and much higher on torps
by many 
Haven't seen it
are there any ships worth pulling for besides vanguard?
well indomi is decent but not worth spending too much for
is the ur ship worth pulling for as a beginner? (started 2 days ago)
Is there a fleet for the EX?
You've got 11 free tickets so use them
yes, they will just disappear when the rerun ends if you don't use them
damn, generous free 10 pull
and yes, you should be trying to pull her
you can get 44 total even (check pins for event overview)
best to just do 3 pulls each day, then consider your options right before the event ends
.
should i spend cubes too? or just save up on more tickets?
anything that does damage, and dodge
I tried a few fleets myself and failed 
use your tickets and if you don't get her with them commit cubes
try hugging a corner
were you playing manual?
VG is safe to LB right? Or should I save bulins for next UR
Ah so manual is the trick
there are some bosses that just arent auto-able
What's the ideal backline though?
Surely this 2 year old EX is auto able 
anti heavy damage dealing backline
it's easier to just take manual control and hug a corner
with how much damage your vanguard takes, i doubt it
bet
eldridge 😎
depends on what you have and how many bullins
oh man
is it worth using a Triple 460mm Main Gun Mount on Alsace due to her pre-loaded barrage?
yall have skill issue, i just autoed the boss
what was your vanguard?
no
3 (4 if I finish this month) and VG is the only UR BB I don’t have
anchor helena ply
AvP is not a vanguard
406mm/50 along with a High Standard Fire-Control Radar better?
yes, for medium and heavy armor bossing
do you get double the gear drop chance if you use an efficiency plan?
no, you just get 2 chances at it
the actual drop chance isnt affected
it's like rolling a dice twice?
yes
This good?
thatsb fine gearing
Ignoring LB, as broke
so you can get 2 blueprints in 1 run?
No difficult rng at all
i pulled off a CV one first try lol
is fine gearing
if you get really lucky, yes
not much gear in this event you would really want to farm for though
you want vang to shoot before the rest of bbs
@rain vine thanks
id rather have my bis2 shoot before
Change ply to Jeanne for what should be near-100% success rate, still without cats
does tech matter in ex?
Yes, all of your asw and HP tech decreases your score
isn't that how vang's 1st skill work? you get bonus dmg when she finishes loading her guns
Yeah but you often don't want her first
reloading does not mean firing first necessarily
She'll go too fast and not buff your last BB after like 3 salvos
there is shell travel time, plus if your timing being closer is important
so say i have vanny,alsace,and bis2 going against a heavy armor boss, what gear should i run to time those 3? and what should the order look like
flan als, champ rest
Depends on the battle length and boss
how do they play a role? would i run faster guns?
If it's too easy, then neither the timing nor the order matters
champ als if boss is rather fast but unlikely for a heavy boss
If the battle is expected to be 9 minutes long, then you would try to sync the BBs for that long by making Alsace the only one with afct
if your running als then you arent doing a 9 minute fight
some syncs work for short battles while not for longer for xample if they only desync at 4th and ur battle only lasts 3
Not everyone has every ship in the game
i only have 1 afct 
hpfcr fills same role as far as timing is concerned
hpfcr = hsfcr?
gold radar yea
how to sync vanny soyuz and alsace 
Depends on the battle length and boss
now that i clear campaign, ill prolly start working on bb tech first then cv and whatever else
also uvh isnt used for much comps anymore right? I have her a 0lb still
opsi med/heavy harby
shes nice to have for when a fight rly favours her gimmick but not a high prio for ur bulins
If it's too easy, then neither the timing nor the order matters

You want vanguard last if the boss has the 20s 20% HP shield though. or just send it with 457s
stick to 4 or 5 per day. especially if bad at grinding
any advice with op siren hard mode boss ? cant get it lower than 50% >.<
Make a thread with your fleets and/or dock and/or gear and someone can help
1st step get adapts to 203/203/156 if u havent alr
2nd open thread and post ur dock
light armor
use multiple fleets
where to exactly ?
here
Any other ship besides Akashi and Unicorn that gives reload bonus to the vanguard?
Newcastle
Other Main fleet?
nagato for sakura, bismarck for iron blood
Why do you want a main fleet ship that buffs vanguard rld, just put autoloader+11
are r2 zone loggers worth doing or just keep for the vouchers
its for buffing the autoloader +11 on vanguards ofc
Farming Napoli needs reload for the vanguard
No it doesnt
explain yourself
are you trying to mvp manage?
- don't
- please
- just no
I use reload bonus on vanguard so they do more dps

lmao if your vanguard isnt doing damage already , those things are useless
see autoloaders suck. did no one ever tell you that?
what you want is dork with beehive
that's not how you would buff vanguard damage for one
not to mention MvP control is a waste of time and effort
getting more fights done faster is how you farm research exp fast, not trying to squeeze a little more damage out of your crappy vanguard
you can control Mvp on vanguard?
no you can't
- reload isnt doing shit for control
- you dont need to
Only a few vanguards gets mvp like Unzen and similar when i play
cool thats why you dont mvp control
But normal ships cant outdmg main
ok and?
unless main is bad, theyll probably always do more dmaage
Hi
I'm probably doing something wrong, I can't find my Indomi dupe when I try to limit break her, she's not locked so I dunno why I don't see her, what else should I check?
if Unicorn retro is in the fleet, sya goodbye to vanguard MVP
level
does the dupe have levels?
check to see if your filter is set to just show lvl 1 dupes/bullins
okay, let's start over
To farm the combat data for Napoli
Use northern parlament or sardegna ships in your vanguard
have them survive the battle
Get the battles over as fast as possible. Don't worry about vanguard getting more damage.
the dupe is level 1 and I can see a bullin SR lvl 1 as well
tap locked and lv>1
thats why i need reload so they do more dmg and end faster
no
no you dont need reload
use better mains not L1 conte di cavour
tried to,
are you 100% sure it's a Indomitable dupe and/or it's unlocked
are you sure that you clicked on the indom you want to lb and not the dupe?
yes the lvl 35 one
are you sure that is a ss of dommy #1?
I'm gonna record coz I really can't see what I'm doing wrong
try to lock and unlock the lvl 1 one, sometimes it visual bugs for me and doesnt show the lock on a locked ship
have you tried restarting the game?
could be a desync yeah
yeah
gonna try again
Dude with the smooth lofi in the background
you can still try the ui even if you don't do it
sounds frustrating lol
I just tried, both are unlocked, I can see neither on both end
it just doesn't seem like it was meant to be for you
Have you tried the Quick select button? 
quick select get my SR bullin
Maybe log in on another device
Repair assets
oh I can try that yes, I'll try the another device first
Or do what sushi suggested yeah if u have another device
is there anywhere you can put a ship that would block it from being used as fodder for limit break but wouldnt tell you where it is from the dock?
i tried hard mode and defense still shows
so I tried with my smartphone this time and I've the same issue, I guess I report to the tech support?
Repair assets first, then maybe ask or report in #tech-support 
The same assets broken on 2 different devices? 
i don't know how assets go bad but both devices?
it's weird to say the least
Repair server assets 🧠
Devs are screwing with his account
new feature to prevent partial limit breaks
maybe he should try oathing both ships first, that'll probably fix it.

How can I get the missing stuff from the empery chic dorm theme, I bought the pack but I'm missing like 3 things
I'm repairing assets, probably not gonna do anything but well it's fast so
and so, no exception found and yeah same issue
off to the tech-support I guess, I wanna play my indomi 
does the dupe indom show up in the retire menu
you need gems for the special stuff right?
Green I can buy with gems red didn't come with the pack and it's not in the shop
yes
can you sortie ur 2 indomies ( separately )?
lol, okay I'll try
ill look into it soon
That's weird, mine works and I haven't spent gems, did you press "Buy Set" or "Buy All"?
though I don't think that it matters
also can u level the second indom to 10 and see if u can limit break her with the 35 ?
on the same fleet no
not same fleet
ah but sortie okay I understood, will try
well nobody can, try in 2 separate fleets
I don't remember which one I pressed
you bought set
Is there a way I can buy the missing stuff?
like that?
uhh lemme see
yep sorry better #tech-support it 
i dont think u can buy it after
Oh ok I'm just missing the bath
@dawn hamlet did u do this ?
yeah one is 35 and the other 11
still the same issue ?
But still wtf, I didn't get my bath and there's no way for me to get it 
alright, and don't be sorry, thanks for the assistance
yes same issue abdou
I'm 90% sure I pressed buy all because that's what I normally do
oooh I think the bathtub is an special furniture
can u limit break other ships ?
Pretty sure I can, I limit break Bellona
maybe dock filters are interfering somehow
reset dock filters to the usual default then check again maybe
oh I tried first with default filter, just for the video I made filter to see both indomi next to each other
I've been scammed
It/was a login reward
How do you farm oil in prep of doing the 18000 XP commision and still have left over oil to do hard mission with high cost fleet ?
don't play a lot
Do META ships count towards PR ship combat data?
simply do not take those commissions
But , won't play a lot let you accumulate Event credit on time , espeically for the milestone reward ? :/
Wait nvm they don't,mb
if i run wichita META will it count towards Eagle union combat data
farming in oil capped maps is simply better
you'll get more coins and XP for the oil spent
Most ppl just don't take that commision
you can't have everything
All META Ships are part of their own sepreate faction
It's better to just spend that oil grinding
you arent meant to take that long commission
thanks
most ppl probably should and do take it. tryhards shouldn't
Care to elabroate?
1200 oil is like 4 or 5 runs of 12-4
You get far more than 18000 exp
Yeah,,,,as newcomer...
i don't have access to 12-4 , nor have enough high level ship to tackle it
better to spend the oil grinding to get there then
Then you should be grinding and leveling ships the better way
but if it is mid-level mission , won't i have to spend more oil to get 18k XP though ? :/
You're also going to end up with much more resources and equipment from just grinding 
you're gonna get more overall out of using that oil to push content than burning it on this goofy ahh comission
all cost limit maps are basically better than long com
18k exp per ship and 0 exp for the commander
i think i never got that comm before and was hardstuck for a very long time because of the commander level 
imo if it's cubes take it
dumb question but is there any way to force a siren stronghold to appear or is it just random? I can't find anything on google about it
They appear every monday
stronghold spawns once a week, and 2 appear first week
There is 2 at the start of the month
Then 1 every monday
U can see a max of 3 on the map
Clear them and more will appear 
Got it, thank you everyone! Wiki didn't say this unless I'm blind and didn't read it
Sometimes it bugs and u just need to reopen the game to see the other strongholds spawning
it's called Dsync
Do they ever disappear? or will they stay until cleared
stay until month resets or cleared
thank you 🙂

is there any good banner to spend cubes on?
yes, the current event banner
im 10 prints away from a hinden gun, should i go back to pr6 for a bit until i can craft gun?
imho no unless you need the ca gun
assuming youre already done with pr6, you can just use one hinden gun and one drek gun for hinden
they never said 2nd hinden gun 
What about the second link 
i did say assuming he was done with pr6
i dont believe he would start pr7 without finishing pr6
mb if i didnt specify, its my first hinden gun, and only shimanto is d30 lol
so about that
finish pr6 first 
thats some interesting gun print drop luck
Finish hinden/kear?
ehhh, I would prioritize 7 assuming 4 and 5 are done
at least get kearsarge
why?
cuz shes good? why else would you grind out a research ship
she's not exactly close to being done
I wonder, will it take me longer to finish PR7 if Chkalov and Rupprecht aren't Fs5? 
okay, why prioritize her over the ships and gear in 7 then
if you focus 7 no
Aight
cuz shes good and flexible, work in both bb and cv fleets
arent you guaranteed 3 focused researches? so it shouldnt matter
but why not go for Nahkimov and Napoli first, not to mention the La-9 in PR7
on the other hand we have no idea how nakhimov will perform, and we already have many tanks for all content so napoli isnt a high prio
i do agree the la9 is much better value than hinden gun though
Because he can finish pr6 in half the time it would take to finish 7
And shimanto fs soon™️ 
not particularly, they're only about 1/3 of the way through the BPs for the remaining ships besides Shimanto
Kear is 2/5 done, that's basically half considering shimanto won't appear
He could wait for catchup to make it easier 
i'm a new player[kinda] and i need to know that portrait? its centaur??
klaudia
is that klaudia
not like they're missing any thing in PR6
You won't be getting klaudia anytime soon if at all
im hearing a lot of things right now
Klaudia
She's a limited time character from the Ryza collab and I honestly doubt it'll ever rerun
there are other secondary healers you can use like volga
someone told me shes good for 15-4
she is yea
thanks i will do that
shes a great pick
isn't Kludia more of a main healer 
Do you have yorktown ii ?
sadly no
just impossible to get on lil enterprise, its a new server ^^
same for every1 who missed the event or didnt pull on it
Nope the healing isnt high enough i dont think 😔
No Ytown 2 is not possible too
Aquila's event should be added peramently soon-ish and she's a very good alternative, prob tied with Volga for the best secondary healer
well being on lil e doesnt rly change much if u started post her run
sadly extremly limited :x
I would do 7 then go back to 6 when catchup comes around
U should be able to finish it and get your hinden gun prints then
But up to you
Both is fine 
sadly she unavailable on my server too :x
We don't know what the new ships' skills are until they are live, right?
Klaudia have enough Heal to keep my fleet alive in Op.Si Mobbing AUto Strongholds ...
also i use her instead Uni cuz i dont like lolis ... she do the job, just not gud as Uni
its very doable on lil enty you shld be fine without yorkii
All servers share the same banners not only "your server" 
No lil enterprise is different lol
to an extent, the more good ship youre missing the more you have to compensate elsewhere like in gear
yorktown 2 dont exist there right now, and aquilla too
but they wont exist in ur dock either if u started after their runs so that doesnt change
Lil enterprise started after yorkii event so she wont be in that server yes
But that doesnt mean she wont rerun on lil-E
i started day 1
lil e is just a mark that says : hey i started after this date, thats all
until a server is live yes
since cn is live earlier than en we can just translate cn which is how datamines exist
there are still plenty of strong options for w15 available on lil enty since youve been playing from its opening until now
is there any point in diong the event stages if i did it last time
/wiki list of fighters
u can click on the rocket itself in the table and it expands for ur viewing pleasure
No wiki pages found.
yes but missing some key ship that would make combat easier
its kinda never used outside of hermit arbiter afaik
hvar is bis for light armour single target though
~~ EN is gonna start again ~~
You still have to grind currency to buy stuff like the AFCT and also UR Bullin at 15k pts on the milestone ladder
/wiki list of fighters
you guys have laffii and guam right? should be pretty comfortable
I read it, I’m too stupid to understand. It looks like less rockets, more splash, more damage. Maybe closer to AP rocket if I’m reading correctly?
D
a
m
a
g
e

worth grinding for again?
HVAR is anti-light
BF109 is anti-med
Fwocket is anti-heavy but people dont use this one as often as the other two
that's irrelevant to which server you're on, if you started after their events ran/reran you won't have them no matter which server you're on
tldr armor mods and reload time are the big difference between the rockets
There is literally no downside to owning a second AFCT
Great thank you
sure but its the backline that get destroy all the time, due to lack of key ship
That's not a ship availability issue
that just sound like aa issue
it's pretty much the best BB aux in the game so yes
Definitely gear issue
lil e players cleared w15 alr without those key ships
that true right?
you dont need the very best ship for w15, smth like alsace unicorn volga for boss 1 and 3 and soyuz + indep + perseus for boss 2 works
u dont need free win to win
I am basically done with research 4 just need 9 more to have another rainbow is research 7 worth moving to or should I do a different one instead?
You have sandy, laffii, Guam, shimanto, there are no better vanguard ships to deal with planes and submarines
hahaha, blame Suchi for this
execpt uni they are all unavailable
huh
but in all seriousness, you won't have it as easy but that's not to say it's impossible to clear comfortably without them
free win doesnt mean impossible without them 
Do at least Plymouth and maybe Brest from PR5 first

true
nvm misread
Okay thank you
i will follow the tips
the point is: those 5 aren't the only option tho
you're just looking for possibly the easiest way to go about it, not the only one
the most important ships if you want it as easy as possible are laffii, guam, sandy and shimanto
~~
technically nakhi is available ~~

you are right !! maybe i just wait a little bit
thank you again you are super nice to hhelp me 🙂
So I currently use this for BB opsi fleet, who gets the second AFCT? Or should I also swap or remove something like Vanguard's HSFCR? 
it better to do w15 prepared than try to rush it anyway
Alsace
alsace
Consider that Vanguard is the second lowest DPS rainbow BB in almost every situation
why was she on double shell anyway
why wouldnt you use zwei though
usually ppl run zwei + two of soy alsace vanny
This might surprise you, I don't have her


it not too bad without her i guess 
those 3 still shld be very strong

anyways back to this, i think id just do pr7 (nakhimov&napoli) first then finish up pr6 after
i dont run bz in my opsi fleets either 🤝
frankly, the La-9 is what pushes PR7 over the edge for me even if PR6 is already partially built
im zwei believer 
me too 
if it's rainbow you can basically run w/e you want outside of Meta/CM, it all kills the same in ops 
im just doing face and g researches right now and the occasional gold/ur 30 minute ones, how long usually does it take to get la9 that way
3+ months
plus a month at max I'd say after you finish the ships if your primary focus is ship BPs
Hindenburg >>>>> Kearsarge
But kears has more ehp
perchance
How many +13 Rudders is good enough?
Cuz I wanna +13 the gaming table but I only got this many plates
+13 gaming table over rudders anyway
0 honestly
You just had to ask this when mebot was here 
3 should cover most practical needs
what the actual
remind me again what the strat for rushing ships is?
face(DR prio) then D/G?
I jave 4 for some extra flexibility
+13 Rudder is so extra, and I don't think you'll notice the difference
Yeah, I think I managed to get like 5 more.
I have 5 +13 rudder, kinda helped with 15-4 clear lol
I'm Warchivemaxxing
I'm curious about the MeGPT Rudder lore
eHP good is the lore
ehp
if you're not cubing, personally
30 Minute > 8 H DR Face > 5 H DR Face > 2.5 H DR Face > PR Face > Qs and Gs for resets and when no faces appear
eHP
30m ur face stuff right? or the q ones?
yes
only gotten 1 
anyways thanks
Zwei didn't have event gear right? 
correct
"An even less fulfilled Promise"
The main thing of BZ event shop was U556 META and her crystals
Oh right 
what i heard is that la9 is... too slow... so slow that you either sacrifice the tb/db slot and use something low dps, or not bringing helena as it will desync, not to mention that it makes things harder to sync with slow/time stop skills without sacrificing something... good for ignoring those opsi 20 shield tho
the actual improvement it gives might be much smaller than you expected, and i am not counting on future new fast planes to fix that...
which is better +10 table or +13 radar ? 
table

Between nj and alsace who would need afct most 
The one who is expected to deal more damage, which is usually alsace
If they're in the same fleet
why vanguard isn't in the choices
?
Well shes not lb any 
I split them tho, nj for boss and alsace for mob
then the fleet that needs more oomph
What is oomph 
more power
a band
they meant the fleet that needs to be improved the most

Here what i got [Looking for tips], maybe I made crucial mistake but i can't clear all enemy on the map sadly maybe I need Bismarck 2 item that reduce out of ammo debuff? What you think i could have done wrong? 15-4 btw
trying to 3 star 15-4 on lethal?
Yes
maybe dont do it on lethal
all enemy
run the stage 10 times to get it to safe
whattt?? yo? i can do that
yea to get to safe
i never knew that was an option...
This mechanic should be known far before you reached chapter 15
no always clear all enemy on lethal :x
Seems like there's ppl who are in W15 that are still clueless about some mechanics 
totaly :c
I'm sure as you didn't know, many other EN players lacked the ability to read about this system as well 
well now i know why i was not able to pass all enemy now xDDD
i'm french, no french streamer, no french guide 😄
I'm spanish,no spanish streamer, no spanish guide 
must be hard :c
Nah, I just know english 
Very relatable, I couldn't find any guide written in American
I'm polyglot, and I find the lack of German material disgruntling
Chat is there a new upcoming UR or a rerun?
what upcoming UR
September maybe?
Expect a new UR in Sept
Expect the next UR Rerun besides this current one to be quite a while
well i'm acceptable in english but maybe 20% i don't understand then i go google translate xD
Extremely likely there will be new UR in September
Well depends on how far ahead you’re talking about. It’ll be in September yeah

that mecanic completly pass my head lol
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Combat#Threat_Level Here's the mechanic if you wanna give it a read
English is also the international language these days
and btw, is there any english translation of the upcoming SP event's name yet or nah
You should study the language as much as you can it’s used everywhere
thank you very very much 🙂
Self taught English by playing games is the way
yes self learn too :3
if a German speaker wants to chat with me I’d be very grateful
Erica 😄
there's dedicated servers for specific languages #international-port 
Thank you ! french side is hard to get any info :c you guys respond super quick here
Ok now i'm able to advance on 15-4 thank you guys !! i'm out of trouble now 🙂
looks like an EU centric rather than international 
I do speak French though anyways if you have a question I can probably answer just ping me
And this server is both the largest and probably most useful of the azur lane ones outside of cn and jp
jp doesn't have a server 
Nvm then just CN 
oh actually that u reminded me
there might be a section for azure lane in arknight server 
pretty sure theres jp servers just not official
when i started playing i was trying to look for one especially when i wanted to look for a guild
when i joined gamewith server and posted that i m looking for a guild
it seems like i broke one of the rules there 
even though the only place where people are sharing guild stuff for azure lane was in gamewith website 

What should I pair with the gaming table for Musashi?
Most of the time white shell
Give these two a read
