for new player bisko to start FdG farm is probably best but bisko can also be in medal shop if u are lucky so it depends i guess

#game-help who are those impostors?
atomic abyss
If you REALLY want to craft an accelerator, STAAGS or Hazemeyers
viscid swift
the issue with a lot of accelerators is that they don't actually reduce your AA reload time that much because remember reload is averages across the fleet and there's things like internal cooldowns to consider
gloomy mesa
Also is Juneaus AA good?
unreal bloom
Sorry that i pissed you all but i dont have the time and patience to do opsi fully each month for a fucking ur aa gun.
viscid swift
all this is to say using an AA gun which has a fast reload but does poor damage and/or has poor range doesn't actually do that much for your AA

True. But for me it is one of the most annoying things ever.

/wiki 70

But what i am curious about is why 5 sources have all conflictual opinions. Like the sub, the ectl, youtubers. I see it happening only in this game at such scale
still merlin
Disregard YouTubers pls
viscid swift
well one, youtubers have no idea what they're talking about and even if they did a lot of what they say is out of date anyway
and ECTL reccs are for general use and we tend to focus more on contextual issues and reccomendations
remote yarrow
With the exception of certain youtuber with a stephen potter pfp
viscid swift
third, AA theory in this game is quite frankly a bit of a mess and true optimization is not something we have a complete and comprehensive grasp on even at this point in time
atomic abyss
AA is easily the game's most complicated feature
remote yarrow
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Twin_37mm_AA_(SK_C/30)#Type_3-0 in any case this is the AA you were looking BPs for , you get them randomly from research

Ok. I dont want to seem ignorant or smth but why does the ectl have a different lineup of recommendations for most dds or poor aa heavy cruisers if the other guns are still better
cobalt rapids
because ectl assumes u have context
sweet delta
Partly because they still believe AA absolute cooldown is 0.5s
cobalt rapids
i would be surprised if they recommend triple gerat 58 on yuudachi shima jervis vang
unreal bloom
because ectl assumes u have context
All guns have almost the same description so it is not like they gear each variant towards a specific use
cobalt rapids
its because its using a template
viscid swift
Ok. I dont want to seem ignorant or smth but why does the ectl have a different ...
a combination of outdated theorycrafting and ECTL being relatively slow to update things these days especially
unreal bloom
It would be nice if someone competent would work on it. It woud make everything so much easier
gloomy mesa
Any suggestions? Or anything I should look for to craft?
Minor bump
cobalt rapids
aa is fleet dependant since all aa guns in ur fleet are averaged, besides the fact that it depends on content
you cannot have ship specific aa and be done with it and call it optimal
and if u wanna be done with it without thinking about it too much then gerat is one of the worst option to go throwing around
viscid swift

if u care about fleet tech
retire the ones that are easy to reaquire first
left cedar
alot of Rares and Commons have great tech for ships ...
viscid swift
my recommendation as always is to get more dock space
stark quiver
just go 0 tech gaming
low juniper
It just seems like a lot of time and energy for some minor stat buffs
Like I know they accumulate over time but sheesh
viscid swift
it's moreso after a certain point you have nothing to do but grind tech
there's only so many meta ships to level and a lot of content you're gonna be farming anyway is too easy to require using maxed ships so it's preferable to level ships while farming then and why not prioritize ships that have good tech to buff your meta ships
left cedar
defines minor buff
cuz into short fights maybe we are talking about 20% more DMG
cobalt rapids

depends on several factors, one of it is, full KMS clear isnt possible
low juniper
defines minor buff
cuz into short fights maybe we are talking about 20% more DMG
Well idk the total values and which give what, I just know there's a lot
viscid swift
well currently for BB FP I think in total we're actually over the amount a +13 black shell gives
yep just, 86 FP tech for BBs right now
DDs is 59 FP, CLs is 57, and CAs is 56

hp tech isn’t important

HP is irrelevant, there's not enough from ships for it matter meaningfully

stark quiver
hit + fp
viscid swift
for main fleets: FP, AVI, Hit, reload
for vanguards: cruiser evasion, FP, Hit, reload, torp
finite crag
Cvs have so much avi by default is avi tech actually worth it though?
I thought it was inconsequential
viscid swift
again, after a certain point there is nothing to do but grind tech
and 63 AVI is 63 AVI

it burns through morale and oil so fast for relatively little gains

More efficient for point/oil I mean
Not gold and xp
(Although I think it is even more efficient for gold in the long run)

though obviously if you aim to push harder content you'll want to get better gear
stoic tulip
I thought the important thing about tech points is that they help with minor stat buffs like +fp
Or MLB characters
viscid swift
there's 2 "techs" in this game
one is faction technology points mainly used for unlocking PR ships, the other is stat bonuses you get when you obtain most new ships and get them to level 120
stoic tulip
Good point. I have a lot of buffs to still unlock for my fleet.
Is there a way to get out of coin grind hell? Except for running 12-4? I'm sure that I have at least a million more gold to unlock things
viscid swift
you keep grinding W12 basically

Last dossier added was Arizona meta iirc. When was Arizona meta introduced back then?
viscid swift
before this METAs were on about roughly a 3 cycle period between run being added to the dossier
then for some reason QE META wasn't added to the dossier when Wichita META released
so who knows what their plan is going forward
whole crypt
Arizona META rewards are available from December 8th, 2022 to March 8th, 2023.*
and yeh for some reason the dossier's "on hold" right now
viscid swift
how many more days do we have on Wichita META again?
whole crypt
2 weeks
viscid swift
that's a bit odd
whole crypt
so one more week after this event ends
polar lion
Dang that was 1.5 years ago
whole crypt
no that was the original run time, the dossier was about a year after that
so we're just "behind" on dossiers for like 3 months now

I have a suspicion then she'll get extended by 2 weeks and then the new META drops with the JP Anni update

Do people build more than like 4 full sets of gear for a fleet? I used to have every character just have their own stuff but I'm thinking that's no longer necessary with load outs and presets

we'll find out soon enough I guess, because if they don't extend the next META will need to start with CTA

halcyon bear
Yeah i do those monthly of course
queen jackal
can i ask for fleet help here or do i make a thread?

atomic abyss
What are the thoughts about eldrige retro
Not a DPS, not a tank, not an AA carry
Support oriented, and functions as a tank support like JdA

You think she's worth raising?

Does UR exchange progress carry over to future event?
coarse heron
pretty much 95% of Gear Lab drops are from OpSi, if not 99%
cursive lark
Yes, permanent UR exchange progress is permanent
limited UR exchange progress is limited

limited UR exchange progress is limited
How can I tell if it’s limited or permanant

Does UR exchange progress carry over to future event?
event UR exchange resets after the event, permanent UR exchange doesn't reset

its the Triple 406mm good
jaunty vault
depends on which one
dull violet
the one from PR6
strong tartan
It's extremely slow but has good damage
dull violet
Triple 406mm MK6 prototype

You think she's worth raising?
Hold off first
strong tartan
Like extreme
jaunty vault
super duper slow
dull violet
The UR fire control table + vanguard buffs should make it better to use no?

Is she worth the merits?

does houston 2 drop from all 3 boss nodes?

It's still slow compared to other HE guns, just use mk7

extremely slow guns have a use, but it's generally niche.

yes

Is she worth the merits?
I'd still get her, unless I have something else more worth

im as healthy as a horse

sorry
dull violet
and I can craft the 406mm
jaunty vault
call it the mk6 prottotypr
coarse heron
horses are generally pretty sickly animals though
dull violet
gotchu
jaunty vault
cause there's like a dozen triple 406
dull violet
So the mk6 prototype isnt worth it then
strong tartan
call it the mk6 prottotypr
I think you messed up the spelling just a bit
jaunty vault
yeah my bad
dull violet
Champagne gun or Flande gun?
coarse heron
okay I looked up the fire rate on that PR6 406 and
jaunty vault
the fr is at 100 base RLD so on most BBs its faster than that
coarse heron
Genuinely makes the KGV gun look quick
strong tartan
Champagne gun or Flande gun?
Both are good but flandre gun is a little bit faster than champagne's with the cost of a bit of damage
Don't ask me how much a bit is
dull violet
mmm
jaunty vault
suffice it to say they're sidegrades

Maybe a stupid question. But does lvl 120 ship not limit broken getting exp counts towards the shipyard exp progress?
wind hazel
/prgrind
odd rootBOT
Does __ count for Shipyard Combat Data Collection EXP?
Yes
- Combat in Main Campaign, Events, Operation Siren
- Ships that are level capped for any reason, if the EXP otherwise would count. Even if you see +0.
- Muse (µ) ships and loli ships, if the faction matches.
- Use faction filters in Dock to double check.
No
- EXP from Exercise, Dorm, EXP Data Packs, Commissions.
- META ships. They are META faction, not the faction of their normal counterparts.
proven parrot
Oh my bad. Thank you
wind hazel
ideally you wanna grind with ship that you wanna level up, unless you plan to getting that 120 to 125
proven parrot
Yea, I’m doing that but just for one ship I’m not sure if it’s worth the cogs, because she is purple
wind hazel
which
grizzled sundial
Cheeky dev not make Agir able to use coin to enhance her , how to farm her BP which is RNG and the catch up mechanic can only provide much :/

Shinano chan. I’m using the recommended to me fleet for now

i wouldn't waste arrays on shinano-chan

getting her to 120 is already questionable, let alone 125

Don’t hate the player hate the game!

dont the little ships not give any tech?

I don’t need tech, I need exp. Or are they also related 🤔

theres no reason to level the little ships because they dont give tech

Well she is leveled already, and this is what I was told to utilize. So for now, this will do

I ignored his advice about anchorage(for now), because waifu gaming. But other than that I’m following the plan 👀

don't ignore anchorage

that is a little stupid because anchorage is usable way sooner than haku

As I said for now
tame jungle
then you're making a stupid decision for now

Yea idc

the more time you waste ignoring anchorage the more you will suffer

And im still gathering tech points for eagle union. I’m just unlocking haku as a ship, but the research I do for anchorage prints ofc. Doesn’t sound too stupid to me 🤷🏻♂️
tame jungle
that is kind of stupid since you can buy anchorage prints with coins
proven parrot
Wdym
half plover
ships up to pr4 (excluding pr4 dr) are coinable
so you can buy the blueprints daily with coin discount
hakuryuu and agir aren't coinable
proven parrot
Ahh. But do you really expect me to have 1 million gold or something for 343+(?) prints
proven parrot
Tf do I do my research for then
half plover
research grinding is a struggle, but just try to dorm and mlb easier ships and get some out of guild shop etc
proven parrot
Yea that’s what I’m doing for Eagle union tech points
half plover
yeah then u shouldn't have a problem, as soon as you unlock her development you can just switch dw
wind hazel
a day delay in anchorage is a day worth delay of blueprints, and that's usually 10bp per day
the sooner you can get a good tank up and running, the better your opsi experience will be
proven parrot
Yea what do I do, I can’t afford limit breaking I have no bullins
wind hazel
and thus the faster your progress will be
