guild boss is too easy to not matter, and general heavy armor is unknown
What're some good places to burn a bunch of coins?
and vanguard?
gonna pull her
as in grinding stages rn to buy out all shop tickets and then spam cubes for pity
ik it doesnt matter but which is better overall
i hate not having an optimal loadout there 
oh yeah I just checked and looks like it might be too slow 
kearsarge in heavy armor bleh
gib sushi 
just use 3 UR bbs
it is about variety tbh
guild fight gets boring everyone has BZ and NJ there 

although is kear actually bad vs heavy? 
so use
and alsace
do rocket fighters work well in heavy?
how does backline aa stat contribute to the fight? it also deals damage within vanguard aa circle like vanguard ships?
yes all aa guns are averaged
aa effect how much damage backline takes
hmm i see
yes
main fleet AA stat reduces the damage they take from crashing planes and their AA guns contribute in a similar way to the vanguard ones
i see, thx all
the new UR fighter is a lot better vs heavy than previous options though the best option's damage vs light and medium is significantly superior in comparison
bf109g is significantly inferior for medium
i think you misunderstood me
what i'm saying is that the effectiveness of HVAR vs light and La-9 vs medium is significantly superior than the effectiveness of La-9 vs heavy
so rocket fighters are not as excellent an option for heavy; doesn't change the fact that you would use La-9 for heavy regardless
wdym by not excellent are u comparing flex slots with tb ?
no; they just don't deal the same level of absolute damage, not comparing to anything else
consideirng they were talking in the context of kear, it matters
if talking abslute damage like armor mods, then the same applies to BB guns
ure saying that if given the choice u would avoid using fighter locked slots bias compared to other since even if the la-9 is significantly better than the other fighters on heavy it is still only relative ?
at the very least thats my interpretation idr know what u meant by absolute dmg
no... so the question that i was replying to was itself a reply to a question of whether kear was good against heavy or not
i hope i don't have to say more
say no more
grey was being sarcastic
i would say that's not my problem to 100% identify then
this is gph after all
damn u guys still on it
is there any believable calculation for halford dps?
so rn azurlane is 24 gb, is there any way to decrease it?
uncheck all the extra assets
does it delete extras automatically or do you have to redownload everything
i think u have to reinstall
so delete it then redownload without assets?
yea
recommend binding your account or just not deleting the whole thing
the royal navy hater on reddit says halford is better then ply
i said believable
or what if you assume all barrages, rockets, and main guns hit enemy, then how does Halford compare to Taiyuan?
From PR4 which ship i should start going for as 1?
Why not haku?
she needs 513+ blueprints to be good
coz the other ones will be ready to use faster
does anyone have the BB CD calculator?

whys it not in the bot command lmao
you can literally google bb cooldown calcualtor AL too
its non wiki page but u can find it on his main page
vg is + 20% rld right?
/wik van
yes
nimi doesnt like you today huh
clearly
twin 410 ap > triple 410 ap for sushi if not timing?
yeah wik is totally a command
the other way around
and then consider if u wanna +13 another sushi exclusive
ill consider it when mid september comes
dont gimme ideas, i gotta min max my beloved sushi
marrying someone give stats or is just for the skin?
yes they give stats but the stats arent important enough to oath them just for the stats
not every ship has an oath skin, they do get added sometimes tho
oath whoever you want
oh ok ty for the info 
hey, can anyone help me make 4 opsig fleets? have an ok amount of stuff built, just never got to really doing opsig before
open thread and post ur dock
So I’m rapidly approaching a point where I need to start grinding gear. That means OpSi. Is there a guide to starting that? One that’s up to date?
start asap, copy the same mob and boss fleet u got in campaign for starters
follow red exclamation marks first prio when not possible do the other shiny icons
Is fate simulation mandatory for shipyard ship?
depends
well it really helps some ships
no, but its nice to have
high value for some
not mandatory
what shell color should I use for the control table and control radar?
black
thx bro
What about for FDG? Well I haven't dev 30 her yet still need like 150 blueprints
There aren't any US BCs right
in game? shouldn't be
Wait
Is Stella BB or BC lol
could i get 9k event currency before event ends?
oh, wait ya she exists lol, yup
For you? At your stage of the game?
Would be difficult
You'd need to be fairly diligent
Not sure if your oil will hold up
my main problem is i don’t have enough oil, is there any way to quickly get lots of oil?
No
oh well i’m not getting the table then
weekly oil thing drops tomorrow
Just grab what you can from the new week's oil pack
collect the 4000 free oil in 8 hours
is it worth it to buy 2k oil for 120 gems?
also buy oil from event shop if your points per oil beats the price
Absolutely not
Would an oathed Plymouth replace anyone in these lineups for 15-3?
Not worth unless you whale
depends on your fleet
wait it changes?
note this Cost thing on your ships
on later stages the game has a hard cap on oil spent per fight, called the oil-cap
so then an "expensive" fleet will cost as much oil as a "cheaper" fleet
so you can focus on good ships instead of cost saving
for your daily clear of A maps, use fewer ships in your fleet
before those stages, i recommend just using fewer ships in the fleet if you want to save oil
at what point in the event is there a oil cap?
D maps
theres some 1:1 stuff with 0lb lv70 gray ships for 4 oil per battle
but for your case just use less ships cause you might need good gear to run that
(ignoring the fact that without UR Crossfleet spam, it'll be alot tougher to get away with this strat)
speaking of UR crossfleet does vanny have one
/crossfleet all gacha URs do
i didnt know vanguard URs had crossfleet, though theres not alot of them
why did people tell me to skip kron, she seems so useful 
how many cubes do you have?
Because overall she doesnt stand out much from the rest of the rainbow CBs, three of which are peramently avaliable and do her job just fine if not better
at the time i had like 450
i mean she isnt rly bad
and how many cubes now?
600
Because
- There are other rainbow CBs
- Some of those other rainbow CBs are from research and don't use rainbow bulins
- And the remaining one has more purposes than just tanking
The only CB you can argue is worse than Kron is like, Azuma?
i think they failed to consider that the other rainbow CBs in research take many months to get up to usability 
It was already Joewarida for Kron when she has a Zombie skill when that hasnt been relevant at all since like 2019
I think they considered the fact that your rainbow bulins might be better used on other ships
^
Like you know, the Alsace that dropped a month later...
Or the Soyuz that dropped just a month before Kron's rerun
you get to MLB 7 URs a year correct
Also, Agir doesn't need that much time to be usable anyways
(Though this is a slightly copium technicality)
At the end of the day Anchorage will fulfil the tanking needs better till at least D25 Agir?
it still took me about 4 months of research after the beginner stage of the game to get agir to at least d25
meanwhile brest will require d30
Ultimately Anchorage is just a better tank for the time being
gonna take me like 6 months of sitting in pr5 to get there
Oh, and not forgetting we had Friedrich Carl drop in the middle
im gonna pay more attention to the gacha from now on
So there were plenty of tanks that did not require as much investment at your disposal anyways
Hell, I don't think Kron would even take prio over Mog 
Need assistances choosing a BB from the medal shop. Bismark is also at the bottom. I only have Warspite. Worth pulling? I have 297 medals. Thanks in advance.
Hood
Hood
Stop using Warspite for serious use asap
At what Dlevel is hindenburg usable?
30
D30
Her AA mount cant equip CA guns before then and that's like 99% of her schtick
Thanks 😅
Thanks
Same for kearsage?
D30 is pratically a must for research backliners with no exception
Is there way to get more blueprints quickly?
can they live in w14 though
Anchorage? Yes
Carl? Yes
who the heck is carl
just gotta grind the right researches
and no real way to speed it up unless you can afford to spam cube researches (800-1k Mininum cube count reccomended)
/wiki Friedrich Carl
K
She dropped during Ansongate a mini event in the middle
was she in a event UR pool or standard event pool
She was standard event
um so i deleted the game bc it took up too much storage, and when i redownloaded it my account was gone…

i dont scrap my SRs so if i got her i wouldve known
what should i do?
If you do not bind your account to yostar/facebook
Your account goes poof if you reinstall
- Did you bind your account to YoStar?
- Are you sure you logged into the right server?
- Do you have your UID recorded anywhere?
Do you have your UID recorded anywhere
If you don't know what UID is well
oh the rpg event
Yeah you're fucked
i don’t know UID…T-T
i dont think i pulled for that one, and if i did i didnt get carl
ig imma restart T-T
Let this be a lesson
do you have any receipt of payment?
If you wanna delete the app for whatever reason
Ensure it's actually saved somewhere if you intend to continue
It's this part in your bio
i didn’t buy anything
i don’t have a pic of that…i didn’t expect to lose my account…
Why didn't you ask before uninstalling....
Big Phat F then
Well now you know
Oh you did tell them
i didn’t know to ask, i thought i linked it but i checked all the things and couldn’t find it…
Well then that's kinda on you then
There's no google play or appstore bind for this game
i thought i linked it to apple but apparently not
Such a option doesnt even exist in the first place
There isn't an apple bind
there is…
There is
There isn't one that works
i’m so confused…
The game doesn't support it at least

now i’m confused…i linked it to apple but it didn’t save…
You checked server already right?
you just sign in with apple?
Using an Apple device ? And then logging in with Apple in other device
Did you sign in in the correct place?
I.e, did you sign in before you uninstalled in the settings?
would like to ask updated help with opsi fleets #1251088141381533808 message
i def linked it to my apple id but when i redownloaded it it brought me back to the intro
did you log into your apple ID before loading into the game?
you need to sign in again
on this screen you gotta specifically click sign in with apple
then you click on change server -> and theres a button to find existing accounts
then click the server with your account and it should be all good
personally i don't like apple sync cause you can't use it on android phones if you cross platform it
i did i made sure to log in and make sure to go the right server
then unfortunately you didn't bind the original account then 😭

you can try emailing support asking if theres an account linked to the apple id you mentioned but yea
would be better if you emailed specifically from that apple id email
no harm in contacting cs and seeing if they can get it back
does it not send you an email when u bind it to confirm?
i checked and it’s at the intro
i didn’t get one
i thought the game auto saved data
i mean back then happened to me and i got my stuff back
welllllll looks like imma have to grind after work tomorrow…
i’m not gonna have enough time to do anything T-T
is it worth it to start new account now? or just wait till next event?
rhis is gonan be painful T-T
ik it’s not the games fault, it’s probably just me forgetting to link it
did you actually check all the servers?
yea made sure that i wasn’t just overlooking it
thats unfortunate, u could start new account then go on from there
ugh the beginning is so slow…T-T
It's a hail mary but it's worth a shot emailing support to see if they can salvage it on their end
If that fails, then yeah you'll have to live with starting all over again
not like emailing costs anything, better to do than not to do
do you remember your UID and/or bound it?
nope didn’t take pic of uid and apparently i forgot to bind it
let's try this a different way. did you login into lexington?
yea
as someone said earlier the game usually remembers your device id even if you uninstall. maybe you were just particularly thorough in erasing the game 
i’m not sure, i just deleted the game…
other than vanny, you didnt miss out on too much honestly
i want vanguard tho…she does so much dmg
and i doubt i’ll be able to get her in the little time the event is still up
Technically she’s one of the lowest damage UR BBs by self damage
im impressed someone wasted a super react on me
Her damage is on the lower end of UR BBs, it's her utility that makes her so valueable
Also she aint gonna be doing much at 0LB
i had her at 5*
i got 3 copies
u could look at it this way, you can get better stuff in the futire
try lexington
i mean i just wants her since she’s rare
He already did
account lost?
I am curious if restoring an older device backup helps 
if u have that option of course.
tbh I never do myself. just thought cuase some ppl have auto backup or sth that does it periodically
i haev no cloud storage 👍
me too!!!
ig i’ll restart when i have the time…so in liek a month or 2 lol
hopefully support can help. good luck 
tysm


i wouldn't bet on 3 vanguards in 8 pulls again 
imma just cope…and hopefully restart before next Ur banner…but idk tbh only time will tell
Hey guys. My PS5 is acting up. Just a few days ago download were swift and fast do matter what size. Lately it's been lagging and taking a few days to download a tiny game. What do think might be wrong?
what game? AL doesn’t have a ps5 port afaik
The PS5 has games? no way
Any game really. The Finals, Roblox call of duty etc.
Have you read the name of the server and/or this channel by any chance?

Yea
Ohh sry I have a hard time understanding things 😔

so is it worth using cubes to try to get Vanguard when i restart?(if i restart before banner ends)
u could go to #technology and ask there
what's Bayard's shtick? starting her once i finish Nakhimov
is this gun good?
mainly a timing sidegrade to Champy gun aka 406/50 or 46 MLE
should i upgrade this aux?
where there previous events were we can get a free UR ship in the shop? also does UR bulins also come out of the event shops or no?
Guam and Alsace event had Laffey II and Mogador (Plus a dupe) respectively in the shop
UR Bullins are in every UR event at 30k event points (15k on reruns) on the pt milestone ladder
oh that's cool
with the research focus is it two dr ships over a certain period or forever?
focus lasts until you change it...
i thought i read somewhere you can only use the research focus on up to two dr ships or something
what
that's inaccurate as hell
even if they meant catchup, that is also wildly inaccurate
oh nvm im just a dumbass, its a certain amount of bp per series
nope but catchup sort of works that way.
thats what i meant
For each season's catchup, all the PRs share a pool of 300 while each DR has their own 150 catchup
That's how it works
how long are seasons?
till the end of service
all aspects of research are perament until the game ends service
Catchup is a mechanic for newer players to "catch up" on older seasons by giving them a way to guarentee BPs
smh misleading players by saying “seasons”
best to read this. or a reputable source like wiki
I end up saying either season, or series, and I feel like both have been used by devs at one point
priority research [number]
is it worth it to reroll for vanguard? eventhough she isn’t that good i would still miss her…
Whoever told you that she isn't that good?
you missed the drama?
tl;dr people who assume 3 vanguards in 8 pulls doesn't happen
Probably
I don't backread
Here or almost anywhere 
they lost the account 
How did that lead to "Vanguard isn't that good", though?
someone assumed the lost vanguard was lb0

wait so she was only good bc i pulled multiple copies?
vanguard like any other ship needs mlb to be good
she's always good. she was superb because you pulled so many copies. it's not normal to start so well endowed
some ships just suck regardless but we dont talk about that
well i’ll bet u that i won’t have that kind of luck again
wait 3 vanguard in 8 pulls and its just lost??
my usual luck is kinda trash…
probably
yea

well now you know to bind your account properly next time
devs have recovered accounts with less info provided than that. email them.
wait i think ik why i lost it…
well good luck
will there be a new ur or ssr event only?
next event won’t contain a ur
Dont expect a new UR until Sept
so should i just restart now and just see what i get?
i wouldnt get my hopes up
should i continue to get vanguard i'm on 143 pity and have 311 cubes? i was trying to save cubes for next UR
you have two months to save for the next UR so sure if you dont get her within the remaining build tickets you can get
ugh i might not restart for a little while…the beginning takes so long…and i just did it like 30 hours ago
yea thats why rerolling isnt something people do for this game
just cut your losses and keep playing on your current account
didnt say you did
i’m confused…i wasn’t gonna reroll but idk what u mean bout keep playing on my current account
oh i thought you already have a current one youre playing on and wanted to make a new one

the sooner you email the devs, the faster they can get back to you and hlep. hopefully before the event ends. dont be stubborn. if you restart, then youll miss the 3 cubes on the day 4 monthly login. if you keep playing now while waiting for devs responce, youll get 3 more cubes to use before vanguard goes away.
i just don’t want to do the intro…this is procrastination at its worst
3 cube cope for vanguard is insane
help me…this is gonna be painful
We can't
Vanguard is really good. I just need one more bulin to max it out.
why

we cant do anything abt this
i meant mental help but ok
oh right forgot lol
🆗
( #al-general is that way for casual conversation)
Yep, there’s only mental hindrance here.
It was not, in fact, casual conversation. It was relevant to the discussion on getting his account back.
It was more focused on his account, not if Vanguard was good or not
And one could argue that the last part you added didnt contribute towards the convo at hand which was his account
Is there a usage for a second vanguard?
there is no pratical justification for raising dupes in general, Especially UR ones
Should I retire her then?
if your first Vanguard is already MLB, yes
Feels weird doing it but oh well
15-2 Boss comp review, my main fleet is getting deleted. Seems like a carrier comp for the concealment would be better.
Surely you have better options than Saratoga by the time you're at W15...
were you using rudders on the backline?
either way, you probably want to stack more heavy armor damage
oh god cheeky name
just trying things out, im open to suggestions.
depends on who you have
Hydro gears for evasion?
try the /w15 command in #bot-spam
otherwise post your dock in a thread
yes, it's either that or timing airstrikes to clear the BBV shells before they wipe out your main fleet
Gotcha, i'll have to try that then and get on the calculator
Thanks, i'll start a thread then.
15-2 Boss Comp Review
Does Napoli just have an infinite barrage? The skill says every second.
its a secondary gun
a ghost gun per se
Barrage that act like a pseudo gun
Really curious how the barrage looks.
help for w14 fleet?
Post your dock in a thread and someone will come help
You can try the ships by clicking the "Simulation" button
Lame. It's the purple beams?
I think you might be mixing that up with her CL gun which is SAP
I did the simulation and the only thing that looked to be firing every second was a double purple pew.
oh
guess that could be it but honestly not surprised it'd be like that
Is FDG more a barrage BB or shelling?
I did the simulation for Nakhimov or whatever and she moves around? Is that normal for CVs in simulations?
Or any main fleet ships for that matter?
what
i mean this is my w14 fleet right now,just need some adjustments
Both her simulator-equipped secondary (CL) gun and her skill gun are SAP
I just did it and I have no idea what you're talking about
Are you sure you didnt get gaslighted by the camera moving up and down along with Tashkent
When does oil stop being an issue?
drop kearsarge for a bb, otherwise looks fine
Swap laffii and Unzen, and swap kear and bisz
never
when you stop grinding
ok!
Oh, nevermind. I thought it was always a bulin. Threw me off.
ah Ig im screwed then. I really wanted to get some more stuff out of the event shop as a new player but I don't have enough oil to grind it out.
event is still here for another 3 days
15k is all you needed
10k for the rainbow gear and 15k for milestone bulin, independent of each other
weekly reset is also tomorrow, so you get 4k oil
skin with best visual effect for small caliber guns in this event so i am grinding like crazy
I got the rainbow gear, all of the tech boxes and even a copy of Jervin while farming. I wanted to get all of the summon tix and some cognitive chips
don't understand why people demanding to show full dock to help,last time i ask here building w13 fleet,nobody asked me to show my dock
well its to see what ships you have
does this apply to torpedo bombers as well
unless youd prefer it if people just asked you if you had each ship one by one
or to give you a fleet to replicate where you might not have half the ships or gear needed
Cog arrays are important too if you aren’t getting them. They’re hard to come by
Is it the peach?
The F2P struggle of running out of quick finishes and continues to pull nothing good from all the vouchers for the event....

Was gonna ask any good ways to get oil. Still new to the game. Just trying to grind for the equipment since I burned all the free vouchers and got nothing good
wait or get out the credit card
keep those oil commissions going and have your oil canteen at the max available level, clear weekly tasks and make sure not to forget to get the free weekly pack from the shop. also check your archive in case you have stored oil there
which equipment? the rainbow one in event shop?
Cool. Thx
Are there only 3 "seaplanes?" I filtered by miscellaneous and only 3 popped up.
there are more but you only have 3 of them
im at 95/200 for vanguard. (havent got her) and have like 350? cubes left.
ive used all the vouchers. should i still try for her?
if you really want and need her sure
yes
so should i go all the way until i get vanguard?
Don't go ham yet tho, just wait till the last day
i was slightly concerned abt reserves for upcoming new/rerun urs
105 pulls is likr 210 cubes
youll still have 140 cubes left and more than enough time to stock up for new URs /reruns
plus vanny is still META
and there's a good chance you'll get her before you hit spark
aight. ill do 3/day and go ham on last day if i still havent got her by then.
ye
But she's HMS
So I was grinding D3 with the efficiency book and Jervis dropped as a bonus one thanks to the book
So the 2nd dice roll works
obviously it works, it's 2 runs in 1, so it'll roll ships 2 individual times for each potential drop
For the event gear obtainble in the Core Shop (Ltd), suppose I have 2x of a gear and can't buy anymore - if I destroy one of the copies, would I be able to buy it "back" from the shop?
Also curious as to any general monthly core shop gear guides to suggest which gear is worth buying.
/coredata why would you scrap a copy of those gears
/coredata yes
I'm finally getting around to clearning out my gear depot and was looking to remove extra stuff like dupe gear I apparently obtained for no reason.
gear equipped on ships wont take up depot space
Sweet, thx!
ok so theres more gear that is worth buying but the website cache or something is not updated
Is NJ or Vanguard better?
Vanguard sees more use in late-endgame
I'm aware of that trick, just don't feel like having "repeat" gear for some odd reason (Also scrapping collab event dupe gear which is kind of unpog but not much else I can do wit hthem so).

well do what you want to just dont scrap good gear or gear that isnt currently obtainable if you even care
Yeah, my concern with the event gear was whether I can obtain another copy, hence my question ().Correction - I was considering scrapping the collab dupe gear but also don't want to for guessable reasons
scrapping goldburn
tossing them on a random ship and forgetting about them achieves the same thing, its better actually in case you want it in the future
I literally have 2 Goldburns and 1 Chise- actually, funky's got a point there.
Goldburns are literally some of the most useful collab exclusive gear you can get...
Yeah, I might actually just do what funky suggested instead, def not dumping them.
Should I change that Type 1 to a SHS or keep it for now
T1 is fine
Ok
Just reinstalled my laptop, i think ur rerun is on going rn? can't miss it
We're already halfway thru it yuh
3
Don’t forget to grind to buy the rainbow aux from the event shop
I will, thx
I'm trying to catch up with the game, currently farming the event but I was wondering if I should continue Odin once I get 12-1 to safe and get all of my gear to +10. I currently have Monarch, Roon, and Mainz as my PR ships
FdG > All of PR4 > Plymouth (And maybe Brest) > Everyone else in terms of priority
Odin is pretty good off flag
there's probably easier ways to get tech for fdg than to dev odin
also if you can do odin but not fdg then you can do avp and that's a far better investment
I can do FDG, but I can only slot in 5 Iron Blood Main Fleet ships, unfortunately. Do I just proceed with Odin then get FDG so I have an easier time?
These are the ones I currently have. I could level up Elbe or Zeppy for the 6th Iron Blood ship
I used to go for all 10 battles so I figured having 6 would make it easier to farm EXP
What 10 battles
If all I need is 3, I assume it's all 3 for mob fleet?
You should be rushing the boss as soon as it spawns
Uh, I use all battles per clear instead of 6 and for all battles to yield EXP
That's inefficient
On 9-2, theres a chance for 9 mobs: 8.79%
maybe that 9 mobs + 1 boss is what they mean 
definitely going to believe they use auto-search
Most of the loot you get is from fhe boss and clearing rewards
Only clear all the mobs if you're 3 starring
Yeah, 9 mobs + 1 boss is what I do. I used to clear 10-4. Currently trying to get to 12-1 as per recommendation last night
Not to mention if you beat all the mobs you can't use autosearch
So I just run 3 on mob fleet and run whatever on boss fleet?
Pretty much
Alright, thanks. Then I just grind out for AVP once I get 12-1 to safe?
Also less clearing rewards because more mob fight lowers the average oil used
what determines the chance of an airstrike/ambush?
How many UR BBs do you have right now?
just get enough recon and the chance becomes 0...
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Combat#Encounters
Atm I only have Vanguard and Musashi. My docks are pretty scuffed since I've been an irregular player since 2017
Do FDG first then
Got my ships and stuff here
Should I spend bulins on shima? I have almost enough protocore for 1 ur bulin
Or save for mog or someone else?
Just save and see what the JP anniversary brings
no vanguard?
not yet. i was gonna do 3 a day, and go ham on final day
oh youre the same guy
ye
yeah I'd save
then again it looks like you have enough URs and the content is easy enough that it shouldn't matter who you spend your bulins on
which fighters are best for w13
best is honestly flapjacks
okay i have those
idealy youd want like 4-6 of them for your cvs
yeah, i probably need more. also, should i bump them to level 13. i think mine are 10
F6F hellcats are more than adequate for w13
T4 plane plates are pretty scarce you dont wanna spend then on flappys before you're done with other more important ones
i used reppuu myself
would i be screwed if i spend dr6 prints on ply? nobody from dr5/dr6 is finished yet
which are more important?
The ones you'd use for single target bossing mainly
I.e. Converging torpedo bombers, Tenrais, etc
so id be fine?
you simply get plymouth a bit faster and get your dr6 ships a bit slower
and by get i mean getting maxxed
yea. i have just enough to finish her
If I buy the 2nd floor in dorm, will I get 6 slots to put ships in instantly after purchase?
same number as the floor below
If you already have 6 slots on the 1st floor
Okay, thanks
what do you recommend for w14?
doing /w15 in bot spam and reading that
changes from that would be using 155kai instead of 155 as BB secondary and there's not much AA required so you can be a bit more flexible
I got a 10+2 just now 
lyoko says 14
you can get 11 prints for one research node 
If they're D UL yes
/w14
#bot-spam
well didn't take it for Daisen but it turned out okay, came with a La-9 print

is there an evrent for the next event?
For Dossier Analysis, if I swap to a different meta ship, do the sync points just continue? If that's the case, does that mean I can automatically collect the next ship if I had already hit 5000 sync points on the previous target ship?
No, the sync points remain with that particular ship
So if let's say I do 5k on Helena meta
The 5k remains on her even if I swap to Souryuu meta, who will start with 0
Thanks for the clarification that helps a lot
What on earth is a ‘special type’ DD I’ve tried searching on the wiki and can’t find any mention about it and tbh it’s the only time I’ve ever seen it mentioned in game. I thought it’d be things like the DDGs but no
Special type refers to a specific class of DDs
So in your case, Uranami counted
This is on the wiki
Oh that’s weird, so it’s just a bunch of the old IJN trp DDs. Yeah I couldn’t find anything about it on the wiki and didn’t even realise it was a class of ship
I literally just searched special type 
But yeah it's not something you're expected to know
Idk it doesn’t come up for anything with me
funny but if you remove the s from "dds", you'd get the result you're looking for
Wtf, you’re right lol, idk why that completely changed the results but nice to know ig

what factors should I consider when giving rainbow table to a UR BB? I only have Zwei, NJ, Musashi, Vanguard, UvH
renhex spotted
the fuck is renhex
bruh 💀
based on who ure expecting to deal most dmg to benefit from the bigger stat increase
thanks
update with new event will probably be on the 25th right
ye on thursday
hell yeah
click this
oh sick thanks, didnt see that
no need for thanks give me bayard armpit skin
i'll ask my uncle who works at yostar to rush one


good lets not talk about armpits here or we'll get the hammer of BREAD
oh shit 🏃♂️
What a bad day to have eyes
“the fuck is renhex” damn bro
nyagamon spotted
Hi bot
vanguard 3* or new jersey 4*? only other UR BB I have is Alsace MLB
Realistically neither, but if u had to choose then nj
what are you asking
which one should I invest in
How much bulins do u have
well NJ is one of the weakest UR BBS
Oh to invest in? Then I’d say vanguard, but how much bulins do you have
then dont invest in either
im just kidding, i used his guides some time long ago lol
dont use bulins before you can use enough to get them to max stars in one go
ok
URs are too valuable to be left mid way
I see lol

Wait for September Ur(?)
ok
wanna ask, how much gold daily should i spend on pr research thats isnt too expensive?
10 prints costs about 3k coin, anything more than that is BAD (for poor people)
For coining I'd do 10/10 max for a total of 10k
Other than that depends on how much you make and need for other things
I misunderstood the question, forgive me
whats 10/10?
10 PR BPs, 10 DR BPs
3k for 10 PR ones, 7k for the 10 DR ones
oh ok,i dont have access on dr ships yet,not enough tech points
With researches most important is that you have a good season set as focus and don't take bad researches
For newbies an issue is that faces and grants cost coins and gear research costs plates
Ok another question, are there any ships I should start building? Cant do any PR2+ shipyard yet
kazagumo mainly
Can muse ships be used for exp farming in PR seasons?
yes
ok, out of curiosity, how much should i lvl the ship before moving onto the next one?
Usually you level ships to 120 before switching
at least 120 if it's a ship that will see use long-term
which kazagumo is pretty much
what is kazagumos use case?
Buffing carriers, she's the best at it
trp meme too 
There are better torp memers
such as ?
The obvious Unzen and Shima aside
Even Ibuki torp nukes better than Kaza
Then you just need 2 buffers
So JinM, NoshMu/Avrora
Quite a few DDs have the same level of torp memery as Kaza
so aside from unzen that is gated and shima that is kinda a long run to get
ibuki looks like the earlier side for memes
?
kazagumo's damage is very decent considering her main use is the carrier buff, she puts a lot of torps down due to them reloading so fast
Yes
That's the thing about her
Her damage is non negligible compared to other CV buffers like Sirius

i mean if you're going torp meme, you wouldn't use kaza
what do i do with this
retire
trying to get shinano and ended getting 3 nj
shinano is permanent idk why you would go out of your way to try and get her
pulling on heavy/special is... yeah, not great
just stop rolling on perma ma dude
this is EXACTLY one of the reasons why it's a bad idea
every event banner that doesn't have a UR will contribute towards pity anyway
im too late
hopefully not too many cubes down the drain
anyways, im not really new to the game but im still having a hard time making the best fleet
u guys have any recommendation?
fleet for what purpose
for story mode and operation siren
so boss? mob?
yes
first and foremost
do not partially limit break your URs
either you push them all the way or not use them at all
i see
if you focused on one, you'd have a mlb bismarck 2 or mlb yorktown 2 or implacable
also, which story map?
chp 12
any rainbow bulins to spare?
i do have one
one eh, so bis zwei, implacable and york2 are useless for now then
oh okay
once you get 2, the rainbow bulins go to implacable first
until then, you're not gonna be able to form a proper CV fleet in opsi
got it
Was cheshire good for ch15?
not the best, but if you miss guam/laff2, then it's your only strong AA carry for a 2nd fleet
I suppose of the perma options
It is basically sandy > cheshire right? For AA?
Question on sea hornets. Is their intercept better then the VF-17 Corsairs
Theres shimanto as well
wait fuck yeah forgot shimanto
so 3rd best
Oh yeah forgot shimanto 
yea, she was top pick before guam and laffii was released
their bombs are bigger
that's all that matters
so basically its sandy > shimanto > cheshire
anyways
w12 mob:
Fdg, unicorn, enterprise
sanrui, laffey, neptune
w12 boss
musashi, nj, ark kai (replace with implacable once mlb)
port kai, helena, sandy kai
you really need more non UR carriers...
since after impla, you'd work on bis zwei, then york2
grab independence from the coreshop
hello is jarvis and indomitable good ships?
@opaque sleet Also dont spread your UR bulins like this
U have both implacable and BZ at LB2 making them both kinda useless
When u could have had one of them at MLB otherwise
impla, bz AND yorkt2...
like he could have mlb impla and bz lol
they are yes, but if you are new, they may not be worth investing in
Big fan of horizontal investment 
im new and using them for now
then stop
a lot of gold rarity ships are poor investments for new players because they will not have the resources to limit break them
w8 i will end sortie and send my ships
Is long island ( retrofit ) is a good replace for war spite? 
both are honestly, well shit

long is worse even
i'd throw in a nelson or a pennsylvania, assuming you lack gold battleships
Not if she procs quick reload three times in a row 
frontline is good at least
thx
ranger exists 
True. And even if Ranger does not proc any of her rng, she has a superior plane load out 
Ranger is mega slow tho
|| My nelson didnt retrofit but she still strong right
||
better than warspite as is...
Thx
also, easier to limit break
Why in ectl, some subs' first recommended torp are bidder while the others' G7e?
something to do with oxygen and reload stats
it's a lot more complicated than it seems
just equip 1 bidder 1 g7e if you're too lazy to think
ectl equip recommends aren't the most contextualised
well... you were halfway right
Me lazy, me will do so.
check this for a better understanding of which sub torp you may want to equip on subs https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/User:Riceist/SubReload
swap nelson and indomitable position
unicorn stays
entire frontline gets replaced
use portland, laffey, helena
helena is in the guild shop, portland you're given for free
focus on that 1 fleet
and i dropped revenge now
Nelson is better than Alabama? Or is it just the lack of gold bulin?

depends on the ship oxy value and rld stats, lazy pick is just go double bidders
i'd say alabama is better if nelson is pre retro, but bulins
iirc you need cats to make g7e work on a lot of subs
and unfortunately, not very feasible to run nelson and alabama together, both are flag BBs (at least pre retro)
is vanguard prio over shinano or kron?
If you buy the second floor of the dorm can you then also put more ships in there than if you Just had 1 floor
depends on what other URs you have when vs shinano
definitely over kron tho
depends on what UR bb you alrdy have
kron is one of if not the lowest prio though
I have alsace and mogador mlb
do you have fdg?
ur dr just fdg
go vanny then
hmm
vanny yes
yes, dev30
you can make do with enterprise, ark, avp for CV
ty
Do luck stat really matters in practice?
kinda? but it not worth your attention since any means of getting more luck is inefficient compared to just piling on other stats (fate simulation aside)
^
Also affects crits I think
is the SR you get from the event good Bellona?
nope
iirc she decent cv buffer if you lack an ARA support
ARA support?
discount kazagumo in other words
air raid assistance
air raid assistance, it a buff that some ships have that increase cv dmg dealt by 15%
ah
doesnt stack though 😔
and what is the best thing to buy from event shop?
see the pinned message
table is the only must grab item
oh thx very much!
theres other stuff that good too but it not as important
check pins like what ender said
How come I can't use 3 bonus thingymajiggies?
the 3x or 5x bonus can't be doubled
Oh... So, just clear it once and I can do 3x?
aye
Im going to farm for table rn

hi there
what do you guys think bout bayard?
(just for my own curiosity)
seems gimmicky personally, i don't like her lower HP = more damage skill
looks to be on the higher end of CL DPS tho
how high, that remainds to be seen
Pretty high 
Although affected by environment due to pattern
might be a scylla case
Ye, that's the comparison I'd draw as well
hmm, so she is..
okay, thanks for your answering~
so its safe for me to think shes on same page as scylla, well i'll do other first then
Bayard's lack of utility, and being pure damage isn't all that appealing, at least Scylla can help with AA to a degree, and that Bayard's damage is conditional to the amount of missing HP is risky 
Halford might be fun for 14/15
Lmao
ah, i see
kinda disappointing
Daisen might've been fun if they didn't stick her heal on a recon plane that needs to die

what is best way to farm lvl 1 ship
you mean ship xp? shoving them in dorms, or dragging their corpse is simple enough 
don't recommend the latter, definitely the former 
what is dragging a corpse....
it's as it would imply you're literally dragging the character to gain xp regardless if it dies or not
whats the best ships to get for beginners
basically spending oil to repeat a stage that u don't die in
great thx
Well, the main part of it is, at least
Was NJ fully aimed?
Nah, she has the 20 (or so) light sword things that are centred from flagship but unaimed
Well, the main part of it is, at least
The SHS piece is prio target, the HE piece is random target

yeah im just thinking what i shd raise for tech while grinding for kears
actually, maybe grinding the CV reload tech is better
ender to raise my tech for fdg i need to mlb more iron bloods right? or do i need to level them up too
obtain or mlb
ah obtaining counts too ty
Uh
BB Hit, BB FP, BB Reload
which to prioritise?
for hit, definitely prio massa for US since she's +2 right?
huh? it's still way less than fp
im just saying it's just way less to getting over it is simpler
and ender is old player bound to have some already 120
ahahahahaha no
Ah, fair enough

warspite 120 surely
surely
yuki i never bothered with tech
smh
California, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Nevada, Oklahoma
This entire list is in their 70s
surely youd have like one or two ships with relevant tech at 120 by pure coincidence 
yeah i do have bataan at 120 for CV reload at least
casa is close to 120 herself
old player more like redacted boomer
well CV reload more important but i need to mix both anyways
might as well
could use this as an overview, and make it not as much of a headache to track 
https://retropaint.github.io/azur-lane-fleet-tech-tracker/
Fleet tech tracker for Azur Lane
Chat which dev level halford will be usable?
30
Thats gonna be a long way 
almost all PRs are only usable at dev 30
Also is bayard the 2.0 anchorage?
Idk i saw her has tanking skill? 
tanking skill doesn't mean they're tanks...

Have you used her
Increases this ship's FP and RLD by 5% (15%). The lower this ship's current HP is, the more DMG she deals (up to 15% more DMG). Once per battle, when this ship's HP falls below 50% as a result of DMG taken: for 5s, this ship evades all attacks; when this effect activates, decreases the ACC of all enemies present on the battlefield by 5% (15%) until the battle ends.
Consider her 2nd skill then
Yeah that one
She WANTS to be at low HP... to DPS more
Quiet a masochist 
like wichitaM
also - her tanking skill is this
Decreases this ship's torpedo DMG taken by 5% (15%). Every 10s, this ship gains the Exemplary Knight status: for 5s, increases this ship's SPD by 20%, EVA by 10% (20%), and Evasion Rate by 5% (15%), and fires a Lv.1 (Lv.10) special barrage (DMG is based on the skill's level).
but a tanking skill doesn't make her a tank
dime a dozen Gun Boat with no utility 
it just ensures she doesn't die
she is likely a worse scylla
barrage dps, but with none of the utility scylla has
That sound like worth enough for me since i lack dps from the van
but your vanguard shouldn't be DPS-ing that much
the only relevant vanguards for DPS are Hinden and Unzen

there are others with very high DPS sure, but that's by vanguard standards
unzen can beat backliners in the right case
...right i forgot mogador lol
Is there a van that buff bbs 
plymouth
Could probably argue Agir as well
Yeah i would get her after i done with bayard
if I can get enough blueprints to unlock the gold seat hornet plane, before the event ends is it any good to use on anyone?
plymouth at least has catch up
it's a worse flapjack/tigercat
if you have those, no use for sea hornets
otherwise, sure
OK, thanks
Sea Hornet is basically a PvP exclusive fighter these days
Imagine still using planes in PvP
Damn I forgot.. 
the "2.0 anchorage" is Napoli
CVs are like almost extinct in pvp nowadays
how fucked in percentage is my mogador dps if I don't have her weapon due to slacking
It depends
But uh... you do feel it, on average 
not very, assuming you have another french gear equipped somewhere
don't expect her to compete with hinden or even ply tho
I've coaxed better performances out of +10 Mog gun than +13 Aki Kai on occasion

Ender, the heck
Hindy, sure, but Ply?
plym damage isn't even that good imo
well 
she exceeds ply with mog gun
so wouldn't she fail to exceed ply without it
i was kind of slightly disappointed that it wasn't as high as some people made it sound like
rn she's doing 70k on hiryuum(my hindy is dropping 300k) but my yellow skill isn't maxed yet
Plym damage is high but she also has her edps to consider, while she isn't mega top
she is at the very least still in the top 10
Looked back at old tests, she was basically identical to ply on med with +13 moggun, like 37% worse than hinde

Rely on that cracked 18% debuff 
it pretty fair imho, mog gun is a pretty big jump from twin 100 kai
It will depend on the armour
sandy should be equal to ply on light
ah
don't get me wrong, not asking you to
just curious how she actually compares with ply
Anti-light, Aki Kai should still keep her ahead
Suffers medium and heavy, though, that's fair
Although Mog def craps hardest against heavy, for obvious reasons
assuming sandy kai is working properly*
and not bugged as she is now
ah, i was going to just go test
since now she can't utilise the 100 kai properly
unless it's been fixed already...?
gimme between 20 minutes and 8 hours
Pre sure peeps were complaining about it a few days ago, so I doubt it
Little Lusty is still bugged all these years later 
TIL folks use lil'lusty
at least yuki managed to get confirmation she is bugged
after 2 years
Is this good enough for sandy 
she needs her retro
+11 aa gun
good enough for what exactly
upg aa gun to+13 for LULS
Blasting planes in w14
@slow fox , two questions
- Did you get bullet data for the Wichita META boss fight?
- If you did, what auxiliary combination would you suggest to maximise Bayard's eHP against Wichita META? If not, what auxiliary combination would you suggest in general, just with the bullet data you currently have?
Sextuple is decent enough for +13 but dont use gold plates randomly
Check the plus13 command or ask here
w14 doesn't have much planes
anyways, no, the gearing is not appropriate for w14 anyways

Going into W14 with +8 Toolkit and blue Rudder 
14 also doesn’t have a lot of planes
U would use sandy for her asw and dmg there
and that is a horrible DD gun to use on sandy 
sandy has actually significant gun damage, why would you give her the single 113 which has no gun damage
I... use the ectl for every ship gears 
ectl is shit for gears lol
Can you check if u can craft this in depot
Now that you say that... I might as well want to check my whole fleet 
ectl is for newbies not for mid-late game players
what the fuck this is cursed beyond belief
I already got two +10 for helena and anchorage
It is not shit u just need to read the gear descriptions
No need to rush w14 and w15, you're not being forced to clear both worlds
also doesn't help that people don't read the gun description because it's all pop up tabs
okay that was worse than i was expecting 
whys there only barrage guns lmao
who the fuck added those to sandy
U will want one for every cruiser you use eventually so craft more if u can
