BB is better for the early push and they gain shit faster and carry easier, CV is better on the long term investment
what is nano going to do in campaign that enterprise independence or sara cant?
yeah looking at the mid term investment
nj doesn't have a spot for ur bulins TBH
there is jp anni followed by musasi
exactly, musashi is just the nail in the coffin
musasi vanguard fdg can make a strong BB opsi bossing
URs should be long term investments, NOT early pushes
like w/e more important should count the player current fleet if have certain easier to push or not
and he has Vanguard and Mog
whats he gonna do with nano? Run taihou? 
The aa gun is ok now right
No Heze or STAAG ?
she prefers something with hit, like staag. You will also prefer a sword instead of crossbow especially against light
what's he gonna do with NJ, let her sit and look pretty once he gets Musashi?
please
if light bossesthem yeah, for sure u wanna a sword
look at her acc
Nj is better then fdg in opsi bossing? she doesnt require as much hit tech? NJ Musashi Vanguard?
do not underestimate how huge opportunity cost is for a new player
also - what tech
I have both which one better for fdg
FdG and her Barrage is craked in mobbing
tech is irrelevant for most players
CVs want those tech? BBs dont suffer as much from those tech?
Would it be fine to put Yorktown II instead of Nagato? I checked her skills and since it's all USS stuff I don't really know how good she can be in here
the STAAG one, under one
what is the fleet even for
yorky would honestly perform worst here
what are u using this fleet for
?
look at the bottom bar, thats opsi
uhh for opsi, it's the only CV fleet I have
Have you got Implacable or AvP
Well you'll want to work on fixing the latter then
just leave yorky2 in mob, also u will use helena much better in bb fleet
PITTSBURGH MEDIUM ARMOR MENTIONED
90.32 --> 97.44
Still mid

oh I don't even have her maxed, i wanted to see if it was worth to MLB her
haku is in pr4
avp aswell
or do u think the power spike from 2 UR bb and dork to 3 UR bb is higher than going from enty avp haku to nano avp haku ?
u should wait then, you can use yorktown with Enterprise for light but they prefer a slow like august
she is damage aa oriented ship
tanking is a side job for her
she's... supposed to be one rather
Newer players are gonna have significantly harder time to syncing UR CVs together, thats not mentioning the other drawbacks to low tech. CV fleets are essentially cleanup. Plus they have Vanguard already, duke is not gonna be good in that comp at all.
why would they have a significantly harder time and syncing cv between each other has nothing to do with rld tech
saiun is in pr4, junker is the first/second along with wyvern recommended gearlab craft, ryussei u get along the way and its 2nd-3rd recc
u alr got all the tools
tenzan exists in real poverty times, just like a certain mk6
yea
have u look at the stuff posted here
Tool like http colon slash slash renhex
speaking about avp, is it worth to speedrun her using combat data packs or should I keep them for the code things for the shop? I don't play a lot, so it might take a while for me to get the exp required (+ I'm doing agir rn)
/renhex
on the daily
whats easier to use, 3 guns or 9 planes
the same
not worth imo - PR kinda the long game
Just grind her out normally, XP should be quick anyway
most of the time it comes down to playing with the tb slots so ure rly playing with 3 planes not 9 and yk that
Yeah, the XP grind is the quickest part of PR ships. You're still going to spend months getting BP, depending on the series
lord
thats scary alright
Hello! I've recently came back to the game after a 3+ year hiatus and would like some help with fleet building for general purpose stuff as my knowledge is out the window and I'm orienting myself with the game again.
you want them to change gear for muliple different armor types, and bosses? Some perfering slowe or faster comps. BBs will always be easier to get close to minmax.
HE is an all-solution 👍
a re retrofits even worth it if you consider that?
yes i prefer em to change gear for both bb and cv fleets alike
well i think the biggest issue in this topic shouldn't be gearing
since even for the BBs it can be tricky and cost time to gather the important guns
the idea behind ditching nj in favour of nano imo because of the mid term bulin investment by the musasi rerun
where nj can be dropped easier than nano
ironically, since my gameplay loop is "log in, do daily, leave" my exp gain is in the negatives while bps are usually chill 😭 I'll try my best actually gaming 
Most ships, if they have a retrofit, you want
i see
Play enough and you'll end up with plenty of spare retro BP
well lets agree we disagree 
, just look at the depot of the next guy who wants opsi help
also, wanted to ask, is there a random skin selector?
Unfortunately no
create a thread please, and post all your ships there
There's a random secretary selector, but it can't change the skins ships have equipped
sadge
amongst all ships? or only favorites?
EIther
you can select which ships u want
How much cubes do you get from weekly challenges?
Is it worth pulling or do I save? I'm new to the game (lvl 19)
if u like the ships 3 daily, otherwise 1 in light/event
Missions is the dailies system where the player can be rewarded for accomplishing certain objectives. The Missions Menu can be acessed from the Main Menu, where the player can see all missions available to complete. Missions can be filtered by type on the buttons on the left of the screen.
The first button, with a map, will show only One-Time Mi...
The rally event on the newbie acc says call a commander back to active duty similar to the main acc
But the mission rewards are different
Is this just a UI typo?
Fleet help
forgot that was a feature. just did, thanks!
Who should I pull I already MLB shinano
work on mlb-ing NJ
what ships do u even have?
Almost every gacha UR
all mlb?
Uhh no 😭
if I raise the evasion stats will it automatically dodge enemy bullets and attacks more often?
Sadly
or is it more like a hitrate and a dodge%
ss your URs
more like this
the stats are used to calc the eva rate
So should I expect a ur rerun this month or next month
that's why eva rate buffs are so much better than raw evasion stat buffs
expect new UR next month
theres geometrical hitrate that is solely based on stuf physical hitting and theres calculated hitrate which happens only when smth hits a ship and thats the one based on ur stats like eva and enemy hit or the other way around among others
Any guesses who
probably a sakura one 
Musashi next month?
musashi isn't new lol
we dont do guesses
she is next in line for a rerun, however
we expect new UR next month, that's about it
UR reruns have not occur the same month as new UR events
there's some gap
there was 1 singular time when they happen at 1 week gap guam uvh incident 
luckily uvh got forgotten huh
so forgotten, sam thought she was perma already when typing the wishing well pin
Out of curiosity can we unoath ships ?
black shell then white, get a set or two, grab independece if you get enough
Yeah but the ships take 50% of your assets (no you can't divorce ships)
/coredata
do I put that in my bbs?
purple white and gold black, replace purple white with gold white shells
well swap that gun too, use the link
I checked the guns, I only have the purple HE, I put that on howe
do I put another HE on nj? I have one more
I dont have any of the golden aps
give the he to Nj yes
so double he? I have one more
although u really need to mlb NJ
Until later game, the triple 406 mk6 is the best BB gun you'll have
Wishing well, who get?
check the pins out
perferably nobody, but if you insist pin
Welp, new jersey
So between shangri-le and Ticonderoga which one is the best???
what are the smiley faces with numbers next to the characters
Is there any way to change this game's main menu bgm?
thats Morale
different skins
red = morale decreases
muting the game is also a change
sparkle = extra exp
wat does morale do and how do i keep it up
Such as?
dorm and/or waiting
things like yatsen skin have a different bgm when you put them as main secretary, otherwise not really
Ok, thanks
np
So between shangri-le and Ticonderoga which one is the best???
Shangri
does submarine attack mode eat oil? when they passively weaken a node
Their prestrikes dont eat oil
nice
Its only when you push the call sub button in battle
(Also when auto does it)
(Except in OpSi)
Is it worth using the Triple 460mm on Musashi or not?
technically yes
no, just stick to the Triple 410
sometimes in meta fights for specific timing reasons otherwise not really
Usually not
its too expensive though
even if it only gets 2/4 radar scans in meta it still outperforms izumo gun a bit
so very few rare cases where you'd use it on Musashi, and the only ones with a high use case of the 460 are Champaign, and Ulrich 
eh not really worth
Has anyone calculated how many cubes you get in a month from dailies, weeklies, login rewards?
Fate gives classic 3-5% eHPBoost 
168 guaranteed
Gotta save and not pull then
even if it's 168 guaranteed per month, I feel like you can casually make closer to like 200 per month 
cruise pass i counted
Commissions i mention but don't include in the count cause rng
Yeah but i have 75 rn and I don't think I'll make it to pity if the ur event is 1 month from now
I always say this but if you can hit 250 cubes before an event you're practically safe 
Time to save
I dont understand, does pity reset?
Yea I'll probably never even get anyone if I pull, judging my past 2 events luck 
Limited time UR pity resets
perm pity, and event pity are separate, event pity resets
on another UR? yes
The permanent UR pity doesn't reset
~~just 1 pull the ur ~~
is this like a solo musashi fleet and disregarding every other buffers like bismarck zwei ?
and they don't stack; what counts for permanent pity doesn't count for limited UR pity and vice versa
how do you get to the yearly summary pages ?
go to events and click the anniversary button
Wdym ban
Ban
I wish I have that many coins
Is kagaban just kagapeek but with ban

Too lewd screen...
No the ban is the yandere raging in the back
Is eldridge good btw
kagapeek normally doesn't have akagi in the back
There we go
TBD
Anchorage mentioned
I was at 500k 2 weeks ago , my poor coins
Where do I find the Crimson Kitsune Mask? It shows I collected it but it's not in my gear.
its a aux skin
Its an aux SKIN not gear
Ohhh. I thought it was like the Akagi special gear. Thanks.
a who gi?
These account summary pages should be up all the time, not just anniversaries, smh
Akagi already got a "unique" gear that buff her ... but Kaga they just ...
lets make a gear skin
The better girl always getting mistreated
the event might be in 1 month. the event ends in 7+ weeks
is new fleet tech in the datamine doc? I can't find it
lasts for 3 weeks
there is enough time
Pittsburg and Fargo are FP, Indiana is AA, the 2 elites don't have relevant tech
does Herring give HP only?
any reason to level up the elites?
not in so far as I can discern
lar said +1 hit and +1 trp
Aw, bell and herring are cute though, what a shame
That is very relevant
That is not very relevant
Also, I heard there is a "fargo situation"? What situation would that be?
i just read the context now

Is Drake the measuring stick for new event gold ships nowadays?
Should i use my UR bulin on shinano or new jersey
what if the investment will make him clear opsi bosses 
You can get 3 more bulins, 1 from specore, 1 from cruise, 1 from JP anniv event
1 from dupe 
then idk
So you're saying that I should go all in on the banner?
get 1 copy and dip
im not keen on mlbing perma UR right before limited URs
Aight I hope I get lucky once haha
True
What is the upd schedule for this game
i value being able to clear opsi since it is time gated
there isn't one
O
all 3 main servers are caught up so we have no foresight
Missing one month of opsi is fine
If your gear and ship levels are bad anyway a UR BB wont do much tbh
i value being able to clear opsi aswell but mlbing nano or nj will not make it go from 0 to 100
and afterwards ure in bulin deficit
But Shimakaze and joystick can
The only schedule u need to know is Feb, May, Sep and Dec are UR events
With UR reruns in between most likely
And the upcoming UR reruns are all great
Musashi Rerun 
Ok well i burned all my cubes so i better lock in
specially Impla and Bis2
And yorkii 
Is there any chance for limited Secrets will rerun on the future?
anchorage mentioned
does the drone actually deal dmg or just cosmetic?
till 20h ago its bugged, so 0 dmg
idk if they hotfix or they will leave as it
So it is supposed to do dmg?
is the drone aux a second drone over Fargo's skill?
What's the bug
isnt something about a 0 modifier or soemthing like that ?
The drone gear or Fargo drone?
Drone gear has a DD gun that shoots enemy ships, and has a AA gun too
Fargo skill drone iirc just has AA gun
the gear yes
who is willing to help me make faction specific teams just for pr exp farm lol
if for PR just make a decent one and head to 12-1 and be happy
why do you need faction fleets to grind XP exactly?
you'll only ever need main fleet or vanguard XP at any given point
but we are in a event rn, imo, use ur resourcers to reach D-3 and farm there till u got 60k event points
3 applicable ships that fit the critera + 3 other ships and go grind your ass off in a oil cap map
shrimple as that
cant farm both at teh same time?
no lol
oh lol
research ships that arent the CBs only use the backline or vanguard
And for the CBs, you cant do both vang and main XP at once since you have to complete CDC1 before you can start CDC 2
that sucks
kinda, anti-tryhard system, and i'm as a tryhard have to say that is fine/fair as it is
i feel like doing one side each is try hard since gotta spend more time to get the unit
if we can farm both at the same time that's just called efficient
AMX Chasseur de Char mentioned
more like anti time efficient system
doesn't really matter either way, we play with the hand we are dealt
wait til you find out how long it takes to get the blueprints
i already know lol
took me at least half a year to get enough for one ship
if i able to do both at same time i'm as a boomer and someone that lack a shit to do in game it will do extreme quickly as i already do.
i kinda agree that isnt time effectvle, but u already have enough time to do 1 PR in 6 days wut is the fastest as u can go anyway
Did PR7 change the pr research priority or am I fine to stay on pr6 (still need fs5/d30 of pr6)
well apparently try hards get a pr ship every 6 days last time i farmed for a pr ship took like 3 months and i played everyday
so nah it depends on teh person playing
it takes more than just playing every day, you need to be consistently grinding if you want to unlock PR ships in like 6 days
yea that's why i said try hards unlock in 6 days
so i tested 460 vs hiryuum and scharnm and 460 did win mostly by a small margin in a 4 strike comp (with bz/vg) helenaless
altho my sample size is smal and it had higher variance and it lost aswell in 1 run
but they had convenient stop timings
also 460 will not sync 2 times sg helena so that means saccing ur 2 other bbs 4 strike aswell or ure scanning at most 1 time
yeah ur supposed to leave the setup as it is and let mushi sunc whatever she can sync
meh, I don't see much value
460 does so much it can win by a bit even if it only catches 2 but its not worth the 360
because it's not just Helena scans you're losing out on, it's pretty much everything else including things like zwei's black hole and other similar debuffs
that was my assumption aswell, its why i tested with vanny and bz specifically
yeah accounting for that on end dmg screen she still basically does the same dmg more or less depending one rng, like I said, not really worth
Fast 460 when
the 2 highest dmg comps I tried were mushi alsace zwei and zwei soyuz alsace having the exact same clear time
What's the best way to get gold? I keep struggling with gold
farming W12+
but like i said hiryuum and scharnm were kinda slow and also had convenient stop timings
idk another med meta without gimmicks with diff move patterns 
only difference is while the soyuz alsace fired all 3/4 salvos jn the mushi variant she could only fire 2 salvos while als and zwei fired 3
im not that far in the game
technically speaking mushi version might peak more but ehhhhhhh too much +13s
I put 13 everything
well just keep pushing then and farming events as you go
not much you can do to improve your coin income drastically before then
I see
yeah thats the main drawback of not syncing
even if you make up for dmg on debuff without zwei blackhole on a average speed moving enemy its gonna miss a bit
so you’ll still lose on dmg
To anyone who's used fargo yet in battle: how many cargo boxes does she drop?
What's the izumo gear
yeah i used the same
only diff on the 460 setup was jnstead of loader you all in with white shell
Are the new characters in event pull any good?
good at d30
None are must haves
If u want to pull for collection or cuz u like them just make sure u dont spend all your cubes and save some for Sep anni and potentially musashi rerun after
i recently joined a random guild and have 5k guild tokens but i cant use any of it for the dock space upgrade
u prob have to raise ur activity
help the guild more by playing the game
Whats the rewards for rally? Do i just need to log into a different server with my main acc?
are the banner SSR's good?
u can tap on rewards to see, as for how to do it check pins
good but not best
so rolling on this banner is not worth?
consider theres a expected UR on jp anni in 1 month, up to u if worth
wait azur lane jp and en banners are linked?
They are the same, yes
oh i did not know that
We caught up years ago, stragling war archive got done this year
the 3 major clients (EN, CN, and JP) release the same content at the same time while the minor clients (TW, and KR) are still behind 
ahh i see
is fargo the first "android" style vanguard ship
Any good?
Kinda, have mlb shinano and 2lb nj
so she won't excell UR BBs probably, but she seems above hood level
so if u need a good BB definintely build her
Woah, im replacing hood?
is hakuyruu worth level 125
I mean I can't say if it is worth the gold bulin investment but personally I would do it
Where do i find vacation log ?
Ight, since you said youd do it , imma too
in the western event menu
what are rewards for manjuu wrangler
Btw, do i take fargo from shop?
It say insufficient of something
Farm then buy at last day
try to farm it from d3 before buying it
If you don't get her before last day
upgrade your town hall for these items
buy her from shop
D3? Like, hard mode ? I doubt id beat that stage
B3/D3 whatever works
Last time i barely beat a d1 stage
Wait wtf? Okay here goes
I think you'll be fine this event
does event map have subs?
Ahh btw, are subs even relevant?
in?
They can be ignored up until late game
I see
they require a lot of investment for good performance
anyways, they play a big part in high campaign
Mine never got above 200 damage yet XD
when should I start doing operation siren and how should i go about doing it?
asap would be good, finishing the main story is something that should be done as well, as far as making fleets you want to condense the ships you've raised rather than trying to make as many fleets
how many teams should I have for operation siren?
you can dabble at CL60 but you should have two fleets of L100 ships to make it not annoying
im currently pushing story right now
1 is enough for the main story but 2 are good
just use unicorn in your main fleet
i have 2 very solid teams built i think idk about the gear tho
like I said you wanna make as many solid fleets rather than spreading out your ships just to make say 4 fleets
you can always make more good fleets later on
so just push both simultaneously?
Use your current mob and boss fleet
OpSi doesn't use oil, so feel free to do as much as you want
wait also another question, does doing operation siren not make the ships lose mood
also doesnt lower morale
Is there a way to repeat E1-1, those story stages? There was someone that I didn't recognize but didn't catch her name
no but they do benefit from mood
oh perfect
You can check in memories
ty everyone ^^
If you using new ui, click the small rotate button then click memories
You should be able to find them in the archive
Tyty
is the new battle ui not part of this update? the ui still look the same
Does hinden have higher light dps than ddgs?
What new battle UI?
idk i saw on livestream, i watched it muted so idrk what happening with it
I did the opposite, I listened to it on my drive and couldn't watch it
It's under future content
basically RGB battle ui
Nah it split each vg torp
Also in that screenshot vg looks separated idk if they change that mechanics
looking back at it, yeaaaaah can't tell much just from a single pic, still subject to changes i guess
3 lusty with no airstrike button too, not sure lol
there is just so much going wrong in there the closer I look
if i have to guess it's the same as what we have now. sub, cv, trp, bb, and those are just placeholders in the pic
I just got West Virginia, and apparently she's tier 1 and wants to be in a 2 BB fleet. Is she worth leveling? and retrofitting
Where do you find their tiers?
what fleet are you using now?
My broke ah can never have enough coins to upgrade my shi. Can y’all help a brotha out with any tips on getting coins quick?
currently:
Nelson (previously Pennsylvania) / Saratoga / Unicorn / Portland / Helena / L'audac
nelson is better
just get her and retrofit her if u havent and still need BBs while waiting UR reruns 
grind
specifically grind chapter 12-4
Is the new UR Pikachu Retrofit good
when I reach W9 or W10 and need a 2nd fleet and I don't have better, I might just invest in West Virginia
Non-related to gameplay but I've seen ppl used something to showcase their statistics
keep that until you're building 2nd fleet, but i'm not sure about investing in WV
The only thing i like about that new ui is it shows all debuffs
Where is that?
Is Eldridge Retrofit released yet?
do you have Hood? i'd raise Hood instead
Events
Bottom left
Can someone explain retrofit?
I see it and it shows 5% growth on certain stat and at the end you learn a new skill
But does it really make a ship that stronger?
depends on the retrofit
Depends on retrofit
I don't, but if I get lucky, next month will have hood in medal shop
Helena and Portland
portland yes
helena not big prio
Helena’s retrofit is mostly just extra stats
are skins this event coming back for black friday?
What about hood? She's in my mid backline
Portland is extra stats also but she wants it more
Helena is a damage buffer (debuffer of enemy)
So her retrofit doesn’t rly help much unless you’re going to use radar
Portland's retrofit is very influential. She gets a lot of HP and EVA, which are multiplicative with each other for survival
Radar? Is that one of the equipments to the left?
Iirc nope, it's too late
Cut off is around after cn anni event usually
thanks
Are the themes that says HOT the limited ones?
is there a chart for which ships will be in medal shop based on month and server?
hood doesnt have a retrofit but she is one of the best ships to raise for a beginner. she is also a BC which helps in hard mission requirements 
No because it's rng
Past and current month prob in wiki somewhere. But we can't predict future one
Portland and helena , which ship you guys recommend for the last slot, got the first 2 .
when u open the them check if the items have "x days remaining". Those are limited
BC as in BattleCruiser? Because hard missions in end game require certain fleet comp? Like you need 1 BC or BB in fleet?
Depends on who already in the fleet
for completion sake what should be my wish ships?
Some hard mode lock to BC only instead of BB/BC
Sandy 
im thinking thesus and perseus are the least likely to come back around?
For completion sake i wouldn't do light pool
id go for aurora
i would value aurora over anyone else
but princeton and chiyoda are RLD tech
prince is in perma pool and im doing my daily build from hvy/spec for amagi chan or joffre/prince as it is so i can live without them for now
I’d grab Aurora honestly
they are all in perma pool...
What is the timer on Indiana? I got the other 2
Kirov is plus 2 cl fp also
just wait for an event to share with special pool
no need to do daily there
But hey, if you don’t have a lot of cubes don’t touch wishing well
fair
and do you even have the cubes to spare on WW in the first place
do u have kazagumo?
Section 2.1: Pulling on the Wishing Well
But there will almost certainly be a few ships that will evade you even after a few years of pulling. By this point, you will almost certainly have a good stockpile of cubes to be able to pull on Wishing Wells. Now to clarify for those who aren’t aware, Wishing Well is an event that usually comes around twice a year(if you’re on EN once during the CN Anniversary in May and once during the EN Anniversary in August) that allows you to pick 2 ships from one pool to be rated for the duration of the event. I want to stress that you should only pull on these for collection until you’re just missing a few ships for 100%. Doing it sooner usually means you have fewer cubes and thus less buffer room to deal with bad rng on events and a greater likelihood that the ships you choose you’ll randomly pull during an event later on effectively rendering the cubes spent on the Wishing Well wasted. And for all that risk you aren’t getting to 100% any faster so there are few benefits and many risks involved. I would recommend selecting 2 ships from the light pool and just doing your dailies on the Wishing Well if you aren’t pulling on the event(Wishing Well events usually run alongside a new event) until you’re in a position to comfortably be able to spend cubes on Wishing Well events.
Too long didn't read
Honestly paragraph breaks would make it look a lot better
Need to add subway surf gameplay at the side
im dumb pls forgive
But still, all the information there is correct…
I did just copy and paste this right out of my 100% guide
I'll probably trim it down for a WW copy pasta specifically
where's the tech guide so I can check who i have vs what i need to get the points
Ww is mostly for collectors only who have a lot of cubes
Ie, you’ve been trying for a while and only have a limited few to get to achieve completion
But he did say for collection
also why isn't joffre on the list
she was added after the cut off date, May 21st this time
In this day and age with so many UR events and reruns, if you’re not an old player then you can’t afford risking that many cubes on wishing well
https://retropaint.github.io/azur-lane-fleet-tech-tracker/ for easier sorting 👍🏼 or can use the wiki
Why do people even want Joffre her tech isn’t great
when did joffre go perma? i thought she did that way back
Play more so you have more cubes and can afford to become collector
i got her onsen skin on the lucky bag and it's been gathering dust ever since
about a month after the cut off date in June iirc
yep, June 13th
F
so basically degens looking for their favorite ship with skin
I mean if you have her skin, makes sense that you’d want the ship
Otherwise feels like kind of a waste
last ww i used it for graf and someone else, i forget who but, after burning $1k for bisko in hvy pool i re-evalutated my life choices
did i just see 1k usd
Wow a perma pool non rateup puller
getting literally every god damn sr in hvy con except bisko
Imagine how many skins you can buy with 1k
what did you expect when pulling perma banner?
bisko has been in medal shop for a while has she not?
no, only tirp
Why kasumi meta border weird?
You didn’t need to pull for her
She's META
this was last year
aha true it was after that she was added I think 
META have unique frame, like research ships
Meta as in like
They good?
no
no, its a type of ship
META faction
meta is just an alt theres no other meaning to it
META is short for metamorphisis
i see
name is misleading cuz theyre shit
the golds are mostly good
the purples are mostly bad
They have different enhancement system, skill lvling syatem
There’s many factions for META ships akshually
do people actively put resources into meta ships
Just call that's subfaction instead
well i know you sushi
tech is tech
no like buy out the opsi shops n stuff
i pump chips into them until I unlock them and then switch dossiers. its better that way.
And a a lot of the gold metas have great tech
for 0 gold bulin cost 
Yes i buy everything in opsi shop
well I do, what else are you gonna do with the resources anyway
5k pts and then swap so you can spend more time unlocking more ships and getting their skills up naturally
besides I try not to make the grind deliberately more difficult
i dumped everything into FortM just to find out i cant mlb her
Can anyone explain how pioneer affinity works? The game says that my pioneer ships have an increase to their affinity gain, but I've had them in the pioneer slots all day, and they haven't gained any additional affinity, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
It's just part of my daily I didn't feel anything
me and qem tbh
waiting 3 months for the next rotation
Qem is good though
yeah but i was on deployment for most of her boss cycle
and i completely missed jintsum
so my qem is 100 10/10/10 but mlb0
I didn't test anything yet buy i think it's affinity gained in battle?
I can test this weekend
Ouh probably like dorm instead
But instead of coins and heart it's ingot and heart
it's from sortie yeah
Oh, that would explain it then, thanks.

I should read the fine print more often.
how many, idk
A whopping 0.01 affinity gain per fight
anyone else think they should release dossiers for the cruise line metas since they actually have pvp relevance for the metagame
Any team req or smth
Making max affinity per fight 0.1 affinity
isn't it like fortune or hunter meta for pvp trp meta?
that's like a 100% increase 
dev have said about having them return, but no eta
they mentioned they are planning sth for it in the dev notes earlier this year
Remind me to test in 8 hours
Looks like this one not in files. So probably just server side only
12-4 drops an IJN BB? that's good free tech right 
I kinda regret that I only pushed 12-1 now
12-4 is Chokai which is a CA though I don't remember what else is in the node 
whats the techlist command for nimi
like fleet tech?
y
go on wiki
*/wiki fleet technology or something
yes that. didn't someone make an infographc for it?
yeah, no ijn tho
There’s a fleet tech tracker
if you're talking about 120 tech then there's this site
https://retropaint.github.io/azur-lane-fleet-tech-tracker/
Fleet tech tracker for Azur Lane
do i farm c3 or back to w12
yes that, thank you
go to d3
d3 isn't unlocked yet sadly
isn't open yet, either way just farm C2 with a low cost fleet
c2?
what is an example low cost fleet?
uni ddg or something use whatever
That's in no way cheap
youre doing it for a day
any two ships
looks worse for low oil
uni+ddg is 20 oil
I am farming 6-4 rn with laffey uni 1:1, it is 120 oil / run. is that considered low costing? I want to farm fusou and yamashiro for mlb
my cheap fleet is for anything that doesn't have oil cap
But does it perform better than uni ddg
Any 1:1 is low cost enough yeah
fdg azuma low cost fleet
Unless you use 2 ur i guess...
it clears faster
If it die on my run I'm coming to your house
my mlb0s are all maxd though so ymmv
Max limit break 0?
its ok to save my oil for when d3 comes out right
not particularly
how do you guys keep track or what ships you need to level for tech
i usally favorite those ships and level them one by one
you can only use so many ships at once
Honestly for some it’s just memory
I use that tech tracker, and the favorite system, it helps
You tech farm for a while and reread the list of relevant ships, and then you just remember it
I also do use the favorite system to filter for ships I’ve decided to raise, including tech ships yeah
I think I'm crazy the affinity is going down
i think youre crazy
What fleet do I need to beat level 95 ??
A fleet with a joystick
I just sat laffey 2 at the bottom of the screen and cheesed it
what fleets come with a joystick?
what's the priority for use of gems, dorm or tactics?
2 dorm sloot + 2nd floor
then all for dock
there's a guide fro that
the gamers ones, so LI and few others i think
guam/shima/unzen do crossfleet right?

Just kill the torpedo boats
its possible, yes, its easy ? nope
3 cv + a fast boat
isn't fp one easier cause you can cheese it with preloads better than cv preloads
i used uni volga indep and laffey1 with manjuu
have a strat about Helena and stack TRP DRs ... she gets someshitty like 90% reduction so u can just be there afk and its done
or just unikai indepkai and maybe formi?
Is there any Meta gameplay influence if I oath a shipgirl?
Anything is possible
Fleet Help
Potential for 6% more stats at 200 affection
Nothing worth really min maxing oathing for
nothing is impossible with ranger
Ok, I'm oathing Musashi for that oath skin then 
is there a guide for OpSi anywhere?
Anyone know off hand the character limit in guild names?
they’re the same difficulty regardless of which one you pick, only the rewards are different
opsi guide
ty^^
Can anyone fnd fargo's kit? cant find it online
how are the rewards different
That's because most online sources haven't even made the pages for this event yet
for now unless someone that got her tells you, it's prob in the datamine somewhere
check pins for datamine
Escort mission gives main gun/torp plates or plane/anti air plates depending on if you do (firepower) or (aviation)
different plates 🍽️
that explains why i have like 8k avi plates
only her augment shows
i just spam click the first one most of the time for dailies
same
WHOA WHAT WE GOT PR6 FS ALREADY?
A) that’s an aux gear
B) have you looked at the different pages in the datamine
tyty
my poor hindy still dv24

my Hindy is dev 42
what is dev 42?
Something I just made up right now
it doesnt exist
dev30 (development level 30) is the max, after that its fate simulation

eldridge, i have no idea
okok tysmmm
imho shes good pick for w15 but beyond that idk
i'll just get her thennn
Anyone else notice that Joffre isn't available in the Wishing Well selection? Shouldn't she be available since she's part of the standard build pool now?
the cut off date this time is a month before joffre was added to perma
Dammit 
should I use wishing well to get 1 cv rld or 2 dd fp?
Cv rld
Better save for jp anniversary...
princeton it is 
is indiana any good?
supposedly
kay, then i'm gonna save for the next UR
Wat mission or thing do I have to do to claim this
Daily donation and weekly mission
Do I have to do 3 daily donations a day
Yes
New Jersey or Vanguard?
Still won’t let me
Because you don't reach 100 yet
Huh
What's the context here
Ah
In the sense of who would be more useful in a BB main fleet composed of FDG and Musashi
Vanguard
Tbh i don't remember, might be Musashi because of her barrage
probably maybe
out of all shops
ships in the new event, which ones are good and which ones are bad?
none of them are anything special
what would you change from this gear that I have on my Vanguard and for what should I swap it for?
main gun depending on armor type
I swap it with the MK6
and for that ap gun champagne gun better
Which gun is that
swap AA gun to STAAG or Hazeatrfgauydguasdyer if don't have STAAG
^idk how to spell it, haze something yer
hazemeyer
sure that
ye, if you don't have staag this will do
also that yellow shell imo is just a bait
I do got the staag I think
but you already upgraded it so much so might aswell use it i guess
then use staag
better off spending gold plates on white shells cause other ships can use it too
this one right
yes
rlly?? how so
its just as good as white shell but only small amount of BBs can use it
I'm an old player but i took a 3y break n now theres so many things differently
there just isnt really any reason to invest in it over white shell
I see
shells have always been the same
I dont remember the yellow shell existing then
and the rainbow aux is better for basically any other UR BB if you have them
or I never saw it
and when the yellow shell came into existence nothing changed still
I got fdg n just waitin on Musashi but I was thinkin if I should try my luck w NJ
I guess yea
i dont really see a reason to invest in NJ
NJ is not good?
if you like her sure but she is pretty much the weakest gacha UR BB
ulrich...
Is it worth to farm weapon on D3?
uvh is only worse if you have no other UR BBs
if you have other UR BBs then she is more useful than NJ
rlly? I thought she was good cuz of her dmg
all UR BBs do dmg
any ur bb can do that and most can do it better
true
take it as a byproduct of farming D3 for event point
this is why Torva's words are misleading in a way
and NJs dmg is on the lower side now compared to newer stuff
NJ is still very strong, it's just with options there's obviously better
Ok, thanks
either way we have a new UR in like a month, so it's hard to say one should invest right now into a UR if they're low on Bulins
i dont think he even has NJ
this is the gear I have with fdg, any suggestions?
the way he said it makes me thinks he is trying to pull for NJ
I dont, thats why I was thinking of trying to
so yeah
use 45fp CL gun
that gear is good but the secondary gun could be a bit better
(assuming you don't have plygun)
most gold CL guns
I forget the DP MK17 has 30 FP 
oh shit I just saw that
I'm so blind gg
I'm better off saving cubes then for the Japanese anni or Musashi rerun than pullin for NJ yh?
musashi is much stronger than NJ
dont try to pull for perma ships in general
well we dont know when it will be
and we dont know what UR JP anni will have either
true
if its BB it will be better than NJ but it could be anything
ty guys
3 UR BB in a row 
Vh plate armor HP increases when enhanced past +10 enhance?
what does the event aux do
Can fighters from Halford intercept?

Any of the new banner shipgirls good?
I'm not sure about something, say do Kronks cross fleet slow apply only to fleets with BB as flagship or nah?
Halford equips seaplanes and seaplanes cannot passively intercept (they can active intercept aka intercept when launched) save for some exceptions ( Kawanishi N1K1 Kyoufuu, Nakajima A6M2-N, Prototype F8F Bearcat (Float); these can intercept)
no BB needed
launches a drone that shoots bullets 15s into the battle, check datamine for stats, #1273588352699858968 for how it(drone) looks
Didn't that plane have intercept
wiki says her plane doesn't and im not questioning it
i dont have the plnae
this?
Yes that means it intercept
my smooth brain says idk what im looking at
how do i raise mood
Wait for natural regen and add to dorm for faster regen
put them in dorm
So datamine isn't wrong
nagami you should update wiki smh
I thought i need to fix something 

Remind me 5 hours
ill just make a wiki feedback post
Cooper relegated to Alexa assistant
Cooper finally being a wiki mod 
Wdym wiki say, there's intercept cd on it's page
check wiki feedback
So just the notes, smh should've checked the page itself. Or trust the datamine
So all this time gph thought it doesn't intercept?
I was always under the assumption that Sea Planes intercept 
not all of them do 😭
i just never checked 😔
Smh you should go read all the totally 100% accurate datamine
was the datamine accurate about the Baltimore class being light
It was at the time of datamine. Jp hot patched to med before online. En idk

Cn hot patch sometime after en predl
En also
Yes ender i know you confirmed it's a bug
I'm just saying datamine is right 
Spaghetti gonna Spaghetti
Everything is half automated to 99% of the time it's right

is c3 worth farming in the meantime if i can 1-1 it
C2 is better if you want event points
C2 with Uni + DDG
does ddg make a big difference as opposed to anything else
worth is as always, subjective
c2 is insanely easy, no need for anything
yeah im just wondering why specifically the ddg rec
DDGs have really high damage and they cost less oil than your typical SR DDs since they're originally an elite
id just use whatever boats you want affinity for
oh i didnt know that (the oil part)
well retrofit never increases the cost
It's like 20 oil per fight 
Will they add another Ur in perma
They just added Shima to perma like last month
So the answer is "eventually, we don't know when"
So will they be adding more or nah
Yeah
All event ships are added permanently (except Collab ones)
It's just a matter of how long it takes
Yes, should be Ulrich
What are we thinking the next rerun UR is going to be… are we still expecting Musashi?
Can I ask who came up with this idea cause the motivation and happiness of getting a ur is gone
She's the next one due for a rerun at least
It's been that way for 6 years
(7 if you count by CN)
It's so that new players aren't punished excessively lol
So why it's new in like English severs
What do you mean new
Should I push event stages on weekends?
I kinda have IRL stuff to do.
XD
It's not
Then they should have done half not alll
It's been that way since EN began
When I started this feature wasn't there
I mean, ideally push as soon as possible, but if irl commitments don't let you do so, what can you do
No, it always has been there
Dude I literally played since the game began...
Do you mean the URs? Because they were always planned to be added, but they had to be rerun and then archived to be perma, same as any other ship
The UR into perma pool is somewhat recent, but SSR and Elite into perma has always been that way
Well they cant just keep rerunning events, sooner or later there will just be too many events to be reran
Yea was saying this that it's kinda recent
By the time a UR is added to perma pool there are likely to be newer URs that powercreep them
How many world's are there
Yea because events have to rerun twice before they become permanent and urs only got added into the game in 2020
Shinano's a special case because there aren't that many UR CVs, and even then we're starting to get to the point where she may not be the strongest
They rerun only once
Shinano was added in like, Sep 2020
NJ was added in May 2021
Shinano was perma added along side NJ
Twice including archive, semantics call it whatever you want
There are 9 UR BBs as an example, 8 if you take away Warspite
I don’t feel like them (NJ and Shin) being added was intended for players that are current though. They’re designed for newer players like me to get started.
All perma added ships are meant to cater to new players to catch up lol
Exactly, it's a catchup mechanic
So them being added doesn’t really matter in any case.
get started? that makes no sense
Should I just be putting oil into D3, or is there an amount of event currency where I should go back to farming 12-4?
they compete with new limited URs for same bulins
Farm d3 until you can get what you need from the shop
Also for ppl who missed those events
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Then just go back to 12-4 for good research XP?
Got it.
If you feel like you're done sure
It get permanent for the sake of completion. Especially in a game about collecting ships
??
What does that question mean
Looking like it help new players is just bonus PR points
15 chapters
Oh then 15
Will they increase it
No news so far
They increased it to 15 like, last year iirc?
Whats with the Special Limited buiild thingy? rate up?
Like close to the end of 2023
It's like every 2 years? No incentive either since main story is in events
So if the world's are like stay the same where is the power creep
You can make it easier to clear lol
Newer ships have better skills/stats
Not every chapter is as easy as 12 either fyi
See the pinned message regarding wishing well
META fights, OpSi harbiters, easier chapter 15 runs
Anyone knows if Emden's 2nd skills works on main ships?
Like w14 is kinda hard when it added then dev release musashi that can technically solo backline mob fleet
Yes
The IB buff? Yes
Me who is at 11.....
Do you guys buy the blueprints in event shop?
Tks
Same with META fights. And w15, there's more ships added that perform well in those situations
So ok since alsace is a new ship is she better then NJ?
You havent seen nothing yet then
Significantly better
Okay, thanks.
How do u use this
Yes by quite far
every UR BB except uvh is noticeably better
You can't use it yet, you'll be able to use it later in the cattery
at what level do i unlock cattery?
Cmdr level 40
Sad panda. I like NJ, but yeah Alsace is undeniably better.
So who should I focus on making MLB
York
Implacable
NJ
Alsace
id wait for JP anni
Depends on which other URs are MLB anyways
Are they all at the same amount of stars
Implacable would be my first choice
Not york
does anyone buy the blackburn firebrand in thew core data shop to make it easier to make wyvern?
Ok then and in like the vanguard
Who should I do first
Mogador
Or
Krons
i did
It’s still dependent on the URs that you already have MLBd. But Torva is right. You probably should wait to see what the JP anni ship will be.
Like what role do you need to have filled.
A lot of roles....
If you have that many gaps, just save the bulins until we know what the next new UR is since it will likely be better positioned for newer content.
And then fill in accordingly.
Rip me
As long as it's not related to gems you're not rip'ed yet
There's 6 type of tech for guild right?
Event d3 haven't unlocked yet?
No
Sadge
You can check in game if you go to the event stage 
Medals
Just buy a bunch of it this month and you should have enough
Farm 2-4
