[wind hazel]

finish haku

[pseudo phoenix]

Does equipping Ibuki's exclusive argument gear improve the second red skill?

[quartz jungle]

Yes changes barrage to 100% proc on firing torps

[full musk]

do I 3 star and hard mode the other stages until 20

[wind hazel]

yeah sure

[whole crypt]

or you could just repeat the highest you can do

[forest palm]

there's an event

[whole crypt]

T1 is kind of shit though

[forest palm]

surely T3 is doable

probably not though

[whole crypt]

pretty sure he'll struggle with even T2

[little tree]

isnt t3 lvl 84 ships

[full musk]

You reckon I’ll get zuihou from the event before it’s over? Honestly I was thinking of pulling for her if that’s not the case

I messed up the guild stuff and didn’t get Pennsylvania lmfao

[whole crypt]

eh when did you start, guild shop should have just reset on Friday

it's possible to grab Zuihou still but I'm just not sure whether it'll be worth the effort pushing that hard

[dawn crater]

Is illustrious good? I dont really have issues with my cv fleet but extra hms tech points would be nice

[remote yarrow]

Get Enty

[whole crypt]

but bottom line don't try to pull her with cubes

[remote yarrow]

Illustrious is currently only used on W15 for support

[full musk]

This afternoon 💀

[whole crypt]

well Illustrious is not that bad with augment nowadays, but not really worth it still

[dawn crater]

This my current cv fleet, is enty a good replacement for sara

[remote yarrow]

Replace Perseus lol

And is this for Opsi or what?

[whole crypt]

I'd say just skip on zuihou then

[remote yarrow]

If for campaign I don't see any reason to use a triple CV backline

[dawn crater]

Uhhh general use? Im not at late game stuff yet so i use these everywhere

[whole crypt]

unless you buy the lv70 booster it's too much effort to try to push for her in your current state

[remote yarrow]

There's no thing as general use

What are you currently using it in?

[whole crypt]

general use just means shit is too easy to matter

[dawn crater]

I use cv fleet just to wipe out the map of incoming projectiles when its hard

[whole crypt]

I mean yes that's a carrier feature but we don't usually bother to do it by hand

[dawn crater]

Ex stages usually

[remote yarrow]

[whole crypt]

yeh but EX's are their own thing

[dawn crater]

My vanguard isnt tanky enough yet to auto those

Basically I use them for mobbing, on opsi i also use them for bossing if my BB fleet gets wrecked

[stark quiver]

yea thats like EX yk?
you gotta manual

[left cedar]

some old EX its possible to Auto, but generally new ones isnt possible

[dusk maple]

New ones are easily possible, just don't trigger their challenge mode

[remote yarrow]

Well if it works go ahead for the SR CV get Enterprise

[urban spruce]

Is there a point to having both Taihou's? I'm running low on space & wondering if I should scrap one

[whole crypt]

muse doesn't give tech so you can scrap that one if you want I guess
or just buy more space

[urban spruce]

Kay, thank u! I'll probs buy more space at some point but not soon

[dawn crater]

Muse dont give tech?

[zenith heron]

nice

[whole crypt]

nope

[remote yarrow]

Collab, Muse and Small ships don't give tech

[weak moat]

is there a beginners guide

[remote yarrow]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips Feel free to ask anything you don't understand about it

[weak moat]

ty

what is retrofit

[remote yarrow]

An upgrade that some ships have, they get an "uptier" in terms of rarity, an enhanced or new skill and stats

[weak moat]

ohh ok

is following this guide good? https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/newbguide

[signal pollen]

For my triple bb comp, what should I build? (Ignoring vanguard aux)

[whole crypt]

outdated, where are you in the game now

[weak moat]

no where i just downloaded the game lol

[whole crypt]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips

[weak moat]

Guess ill just follow this

[kindred finch]

Is helena worth 125? Or is there a better debuffer out there

[keen sable]

yes and no

[remote yarrow]

She is but I would say you should 125 your backline before, if you don't have many arrays ofc, if you have enough just go ahead she's worth it

[hollow gust]

40% debuff is by far the most busted thing in the game

[kindred finch]

Yeah thought so, that 40% looks like a typo the first time i read it

[hollow gust]

But if you don't sync her shes useless

[full musk]

will do then, btw is there any specific war archive I should start on

[kindred finch]

Does the debuff stack? I put both helena and helemeta and roon u in the same fleet

[full musk]

I remember tripitz being rlly good

[vale spindle]

tldr if the skill name isn't the same then it stacks (unless otherwise specified)

[whole crypt]

none of them

[remote yarrow]

Quite the opposite she's pretty bad

[dawn crater]

The one with the submarine seems worth it

[remote yarrow]

I don't know if she was back in 2020 ir w/e but by today's standard she's bad

[remote yarrow]

Please don't recommend stuff that "seems" worth it

The only War Archive that we recommend doing is Divergent Chessboard and they shouldn't worry about it till later

[full musk]

damn it

I 100% know I'm not clearing this I just need xp

[remote yarrow]

Pretty much

Small ships exist to be cute and use up dock space

[dawn crater]

Divergent chess board? Because of z46?

[remote yarrow]

Because of Iron Blood ships to get tech points to unlock FdG

[dawn crater]

Ahh tech points stuff

[atomic abyss]

Gneisenau and Scharnhorst give more tech than Z46 anyways

[remote yarrow]

Just forget about War Archives for now and try to push campaign with the starter fleet

[atomic abyss]

There's no way to "lose" tech points

It's like a milestone thing you achieve

Once you "achieve" it
You can't "unachieve" it

[warm flax]

how good is Wichita Meta

[remote yarrow]

Niche, she's a glass cannon, but she's really good on QE Meta

[atomic abyss]

Glass cannon is an understatement tbh

[frank pulsar]

hits really hard if you can work around her low hp mechanics
otherwise not worth using

[atomic abyss]

She is the 3rd highest frontline DPS in the game

...but she's also the 3rd frailest frontliner that's not a bulin

So by definition yes, a glass cannon
The most extreme kind

[remote yarrow]

She's like that one meme, but instead she's a coughing baby holding a hydrogen bomb

[warm flax]

so worse than pre fixed mogador

[atomic abyss]

No?
Mogador actively killed herself by face tanking shells and torps and barrages
Michita is just frail, and requires to be low HP to get her maximum buffs, that's all

[finite crag]

Whats a good fleet to fight qem if i dont have wichita

I remember using helmet back then

[atomic abyss]

Helmet is what people are using yeah

[plain saffron]

how mogador choose target to teleport to

[atomic abyss]

Doesn't she prioritise humanoid

[plain saffron]

what if in pvp, random?

[subtle grove]

how does the harmony boss in opsi heal?

[plain saffron]

it says in her skill description
usually, when below y%, heal x% every n seconds

disable fleet lock then go into her

[subtle grove]

where do you see its skill?

[plain saffron]

do this, it will be there

[whole crypt]

turn off fleet lock

[sweet delta]

scan on the map

[whole crypt]

or that

[plain saffron]

this also works

[subtle grove]

ohhhh

aight thanks

[frank pulsar]

helmet needs a +13 plygun to be reliable, use michita, souryum or hiryuum if you cant make helmet work

[whole crypt]

or you can use both Wichita and Helena

[civic crag]

How do I get abyssal coords after I clear shop

[atomic abyss]

You wait for the next month

[remote yarrow]

You can get some from daily missions too

And I'm not too sure about if you can get them in secure zones

[keen sable]

or clear some maps

[whole crypt]

you can also get them from dives

[worldly snow]

where i can get core data?

[sleek spade]

do we know when the new UR event is? maybe in the third week of this month?

[atomic abyss]

Campaign hard mode

[atomic abyss]

12th

We already have call to arms this week

[sleek spade]

ah nice! ty

[remote yarrow]

And the new UR is gonna get revealed in 3 hrs

[sleek spade]

UOOOOO

[plain saffron]

am i crazy or META fight always lasted 100 days before

[atomic abyss]

Isn't there a list on the wiki

/wiki meta_showdown

[odd root]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/META_Showdown

[plain saffron]

damn no duration, need to calc myself

[atomic abyss]

While you're at it, add it to the page

[plain saffron]

[('Hiryuu META', 86),
('Ark Royal META', 84),
('Helena META', 91),
('Souryuu META', 91),
('Gneisenau META', 91),
('Scharnhorst META', 91),
('Repulse META', 84),

('Algérie META', 84),
('Jintsuu META', 98),
('Kirov META', 98),
('Rodney META', 91),
('Wichita META', 84),
('Nagato META', 99)]

is this good enough?

[remote yarrow]

Wouldn't "were" be better than "are"?

[plain saffron]

but it also include current one

ouh you mean per line

[remote yarrow]

yeah

for the ones that already ran

[plain saffron]

tbh idk and i can't be bothered to

[remote yarrow]

welp

[crisp wadi]

iirc the livestreaming is 2 days right? Do the game news about the event revealed today or tomorrow?

[plain saffron]

in 2h 43m

for below, nope

[west lichen]

question, is it necessary to have cleveleand in the same fleet as independence to get the max out of her?

[late flame]

nope

[remote yarrow]

Nope

[atomic abyss]

asolutely not

[slow fox]

nope

[west lichen]

ok cool, i just retrofitted her and i just have her in a mixed eagle union royal fleet

[vale spindle]

ecgc is officially updated yay

[eternal basalt]

Tommorrow are merch and collabs

[opaque gate]

ah accidental ping, anyway, do i have to kill all mob fleets when farming campaign stage?

[atomic abyss]

no, just the minimum

[opaque gate]

like, i have an oil cap

[atomic abyss]

boss fights have better drops anyways

[opaque gate]

oh, does it give the same reward?

cuz i farm 9-4 to get to lvl 70

[remote yarrow]

Just auto, it goes automatically for the boss when it spawns

[atomic abyss]

boss fights give more exp

[whole crypt]

but boss fight is higher oil cost, mob fights are usually slightly better XP/oil
the main thing is just why would you look at the screen when you just AFK 20 minutes in sets of 3

[opaque gate]

does fleet oil cost matter when i auto?

cuz when i use few members on the fleet, it has the same total oil cost with a larger one

[atomic abyss]

on oil capped maps, no

[opaque gate]

ok thanks!

[atomic abyss]

so w9 and above, event D maps

[remote yarrow]

Just use 6 ships, that's the benefit of oilcap

[ionic bramble]

do I craft or buy champy gun?

[wind hazel]

buying through protocore is often easier

technically you still have to craft it either way

[vale gyro]

Opsi mob fleet that clears stronghold alone?

[whole crypt]

I'd say buy with proto core, too many steps and lab materials to craft

[grizzled sundial]

Are guns with 4 barrel always have terrible spread that can't hit anything ?

[whole crypt]

basically

[atomic abyss]

yes

[whole crypt]

for BBs that is

[remote yarrow]

I think you should ask that in #al-general , but I'm self taught since the age of 9 and I'm 23 , played games and watched stuff that were in english

[grizzled sundial]

Only if you have passion for it

[atomic abyss]

Unfortunately, this isn't #english-help

But flashcards can go a long way

Otherwise... finding a friend (or even parnter) that speaks that language

[foggy chasm]

its fine to use the gold one for the exp right?

[whole crypt]

just auto select

[worldly snow]

Sorry about that
And thanks

[foggy chasm]

is drake coinable

[finite crag]

Yes

[rose cosmos]

Do the jp anni stuffs come to global?

[rain bobcat]

wdym

the mail rewards no the event is for everyone

[whole crypt]

event yes
anniv specific handouts no

[rain bobcat]

40 mins til event details yes?

[rose cosmos]

[whole crypt]

you already got your 700 gems for EN anniv

[rose cosmos]

Not enough smh

[whole crypt]

waiting for reset so yeh

[quartz jungle]

Btw what was updated?

[remote yarrow]

Check ECGC's discord news

[exotic wren]

ecgc got a discord?

[vale spindle]

check the changelog for more info

[iron meteor]

wait is pr 2 drs the only dr i can coin?

[whole crypt]

23

[iron meteor]

oh 3

i analyze the combat packs tro trade for dr blueprints yes?

[whole crypt]

don't recommend rates for ship prints in proto shop pretty bad

[soft raft]

you convert them to protocore yes
Use them to buy DR/PR prints in the protocore shop? Hell No

the prints in the protocore shop cost 6 BPs worth of protocore to buy a single BP

absolute scam

[iron meteor]

what to buy there

[turbid latch]

are there any ships worth to pull right now with my current formation

[plain saffron]

/protocore

[odd root]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/images/equip_misc/Prototype_Core_Priority.jpeg

[atomic abyss]

no, save your pulls for UR events

[turbid latch]

is my team decent rn? I have shimakaze but someone said I shouldn't use her at early game

[plain saffron]

you won't be able to MLB her for a while so don't use her

[atomic abyss]

it's one of the best team possible for a new player

[iron meteor]

does any of you have a guide for like purple and blue gears to keep

[plain saffron]

[iron meteor]

tyyyy

[daring wadi]

What should I use gems on

[atomic abyss]

3rd dorm slot, dorm 2nd floor, then dock slots

[daring wadi]

Wdym by dock slots

[atomic abyss]

more storage for your dock

[daring wadi]

Aight

Where do I get dorm slots tho

[soft raft]

You gotta do that through the dorm itself

[frank pulsar]

to buy second floor youll need to finish expanding first floor first

[daring wadi]

OOOO I seee

I shouldn't have spent decor tokens on items then

[soft raft]

Eh no biggie
Just keep farming commissions

[fading plinth]

is medal shop bugged?

[atomic abyss]

what do you mean

[plain saffron]

elaborate

[fading plinth]

whenever i go inside

nothing pops up and its stuck in loading

[plain saffron]

try repair assets, also what server

[vagrant panther]

Question: Have just enough rainbow bulins for NJ, do I go ahead?
Mindful of possible upcoming URs and I already have FDG, Vanguard, Alsace, Soyuz and UvH etc

[atomic abyss]

save, UR event next week

[fading plinth]

amagi

[fading plinth]

oh wait really?

[crimson glacier]

yes UR carrier

[vagrant panther]

Does she bring anything special to the table over the others I've named though

[atomic abyss]

she's a carrier - all of yours are battleships

[crimson glacier]

we dont know how good tho

[atomic abyss]

so she'll be very valuable

[vagrant panther]

new URs generally pretty good

[crimson glacier]

but NJ should be really easy to beat so

[soft raft]

We have literally no info on her besides that she's a carrier and her name is Amagi (Carrier)

[fading plinth]

amagi is carrier?

[plain saffron]

new amagi is

[timid moon]

Which BB can output the most damage, straight up the highest damage number?

[atomic abyss]

the UR one is

Bis Zwei iirc

[fading plinth]

hope its gonna be good

[vagrant panther]

CV wise I have Haku and Shinano. (Include Sara Enty etc of course)

[vagrant panther]

Oh I meant NJ over the other UR BBs

[fading plinth]

if i max lb nj and i get a extra one what do i do w it

[plain saffron]

mine on amagi is fine so yeah try asset repair in setting

[soft raft]

Heavily powercrept

[fading plinth]

ok

[vagrant panther]

Yeah..... Hence was hesitating on spending the bulins

Ok thanks. Let's see what comes next week

[crimson glacier]

every UR BB except Uvh is basically better at everything compared to NJ

and uvh is better too on some things

[atomic abyss]

excluding warkai of course

[crimson glacier]

right i forgot that she exists and i dont count her anyway

[daring wadi]

Do I really need a second fleet?

[crimson glacier]

eventually you 100% need it

[plain saffron]

on later stage yes, early nope

[vagrant panther]

UvH is great for opsi as non flag for me

[plain saffron]

any UR works for opsi

[vagrant panther]

Fair

[soft raft]

OpSi mob is very easy as well

[plain saffron]

don't even need to be mob

[inner delta]

having extra bb mean your clearing time is slower cuz bb shot slowmo

[daring wadi]

When eventually

[plain saffron]

my opsi BB fleet still have uvh

[soft raft]

Like at earliest W9-10

[crimson glacier]

you need it when you need it

[daring wadi]

But yk how I only have 5 ammo what should I do when my main fleet is out of it

[plain saffron]

fight with 0 ammo

[daring wadi]

Is it possible?

[soft raft]

You can keep fighting at 0 ammo

[atomic abyss]

you can still fight with 0 ammo at 50% dmg penalty

[plain saffron]

you get -50% dmg debuff, but level advantage is enough to negate that usually

[daring wadi]

oooo

[soft raft]

There's technically a damage penalty but it means Jack shit most of the time with properly built fleets

You'll feel the pain a bit more in W14-15 but you're nowhere close to that right now

[fading plinth]

how do i build a fleet

[daring wadi]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tipse

[atomic abyss]

extra e

[plain saffron]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/fleetbuilding

[daring wadi]

Another question should I leave my fleet in auto combat?

[plain saffron]

everyone play auto yes

unless your fleet is underlevelled or shit auto will be fine

[daring wadi]

Man I lv this community always so helpful

[fading plinth]

page not found

[atomic abyss]

it is tho

[fading plinth]

nvm

[foggy chasm]

so when does the jap 7th anniv thing happen to us? next week?

[fading plinth]

my sandy does more damage than my yuudachi, is that normal

[atomic abyss]

12th yes

yes, if both are retro, and sandy has her augment

[plain saffron]

same as JP, 12th

[fading plinth]

oh

should i

replace laffy for suzutsuki

[crimson glacier]

laffey retrofit or laffey 2

[atomic abyss]

have you retro her yet, for the rookie missions?

[fading plinth]

laffey retrofited

[crimson glacier]

well suzu is better ship but idk if its good use of gold bulins

[fading plinth]

my suzu already 2nd lb

[daring wadi]

Where do I get exp packs fast

[plain saffron]

other than weekly packs and some event rewards, no fast way really

main way to lvl up is use them in fight

[fading plinth]

returnee event

it gives like alot alot

is royal fortune good

[daring wadi]

Where's returnee event again?

[fading plinth]

you go offline for a specific amount of days

[daring wadi]

oooo

[atomic abyss]

just grind

[soft raft]

That shit ain't worth deliberately leaving the game for a month lmaooo

[fading plinth]

eh worth it if you really needed to do something else and avoid AL for a while

[soft raft]

You really think that's worth skipping roughly 168 cubes for?

[fading plinth]

i mean like if you didnt have enough storage anymore and needed to buy a new phone but got no money and you saved up more than a month i guess yes

[plain saffron]

we still don't know the actual period needed

you could go for long time and not trigger it, wasting both returnee and 168 per month

[forest palm]

returners bonus seems to be uber inconsistent

[plain saffron]

wouldn't be suprised if it have some calculation instead

[forest palm]

though you'd think it'd be more...consistent if it were running such a computation

could just chalk it up to spaghetti code

[soft raft]

Smol indie studio pls understand

[plain saffron]

i mean like, maybe take in how much money spent or commander lvl

[forest palm]

CMD Lv I can understand, but money spent doesn't ring quite right to me

[plain saffron]

same

[fading plinth]

any ideal fleet? i still dont know how

[forest palm]

for what exactly?

[left cedar]

for ?
Campaign ? where?
Op.Si ?

[fading plinth]

general

[soft raft]

That doesn't help at all

[forest palm]

there is no such thing as general

[left cedar]

that dosnt exist in AL ... each type of content it will need something

[fading plinth]

op si and campaign

[soft raft]

Because W14-15 is vastly different than pre-W12

[soft raft]

That doesn't really help either
You have to be more specific than that, esp in regards to campaign

[fading plinth]

idk im underprogressed in both

[left cedar]

W13, W14 and W15 are different from each other
so it will be more specific

Op.Si its pretty much
Mob Fleet and 1 Boss Fleet, 2 others can be cross fleets or waifu fleets

[foggy chasm]

okay thanks

[soft raft]

Ok, then what campaign stage are you on right now?

[frosty badge]

is there anyway to settle the “failed to activate the stages” problem？already reinstall and repair and logout…

[fading plinth]

w9...

[plain saffron]

try removing all ships then put them on again

iirc that works before

[soft raft]

Your fleet setups could be better
Just go ahead post your dock in a thread

[left cedar]

W9 with that ships and lvls ... seens more gear problems than anything else, so this guy need a complete check up

[fading plinth]

ok hold on

[fading plinth]

no im not stuck on W9 im just lazy to complete

[soft raft]

Unicorn being with Enty is a bit sus since that either means Enty ain't living up to her max potential or you're using a healer in boss fleet for some reason

[frosty badge]

damm，really help
i found out the system somehow put same ship in two team when i reapply it，thank you

[crimson glacier]

enty is pretty good at mob

[left cedar]

yeah, Enty works on mob, just get better at boss but nothing make her bad at it

[soft raft]

yeah ik she;s not terrible in mob but at that point where he's using 2 fleets, she should be in the boss fleet

[slow sail]

Can i ask how to trigger cost reduction?

[vernal edge]

You already did, by clearing

[slow sail]

No i mean how. This one in the same event cost me normal

[crimson glacier]

coz only the last stage has the cost limit

[soft raft]

T2 and T1 simply do not have oil cap avaliable

[slow sail]

Ahhh i see

Thank you.
Btw does cost limit exist on main stages?

[soft raft]

W9 and above yes

[slow sail]

Thank you ~

[golden moth]

Is it right no ur rerun this yr..no sushi rerun

[viscid swift]

All we know is Roma will be next to rerun

As expected

[spring scarab]

Will the 3D dorms release in this upcoming anniversary event??

[remote yarrow]

I don't think they gave a date

[atomic abyss]

No date was given

[spring scarab]

Ohhh just looking at the 3D dorms at the live,this one is going to burn all the my phone's storage 🥲

[soft raft]

there has been no statement on wheter or not we'll get another UR rerun

Musashi rerun is more closer than you'd think, granted if they decide to rerun Brunhilde event first or not considering what's after Musashi

[quartz jungle]

3 UR reruns in a row is going to be taxing on my cubes yeah (well I have Musashi so just 2 but still)

[soft raft]

this is the part where the sidenote comes in because god knows if they are willing to really do 3 UR reruns back to back

[half plover]

my cubes are ready but I think they will adjust the order

[unique lantern]

i currently have very limited ur bullins and could get shimakaze any time i want, but at the same time i have a soon max level shinano who isnt limit broken, is there a clear winner who i should spend/save the bullins on or are they roughly equal? (i do have a lack of both dds and cvs)

[plain saffron]

shinano

[soft raft]

Regardless of pending proper testing for Amagi (CV), Shinano would easily outprio Shima

[unique lantern]

aight

[opaque gate]

how to get this one?

[soft raft]

you get them from OpSI
if you're wondering if there's any specific areas, no not really, just farm C5 zones

[opaque gate]

are they easy to farm?

[wary lake]

Umm how much is the cost for motion skin again?

[plain saffron]

you get 4 guaranteed general UR bp per month

and rng type, rng drop rate per each abyssal

[opaque gate]

thNanks, so not easy xd

[inner delta]

like 900+ ish prolly

[unique lantern]

so regarding the shinano, is there any easy upgrade to her gear i can make?

[atomic abyss]

Gear lab and research stuff really
Best you're getting without those

[unique lantern]

good

[plain saffron]

and prob change to converging tb for boss
depends on content

[atomic abyss]

^

[half plover]

is hakuryuu usable at dev25+ or does she really need dev30 to begin with

if she isn't I would probably switch from developing her to marco polo first

[wind hazel]

she wants dev30

[half plover]

lvl 50 - 115 would be just leveling ig but I could wait for dev30 for that

[wind hazel]

ye if you dont have enough bp i'd probably do MP first as well

get MP, coin her out, get haku's bp faster

[half plover]

I feel like at this point I get way more face researches from other seasons than from mp

not sure how it works but at least I still get hakuryuu sometimes

[rare shoal]

Soyuz or Implacable for Shinano/Haku?

[whole crypt]

Implacable

[daring acorn]

are the pr7 drs worth using even at dev 0 😭 i have nowhere newr enough bps for napoli or nakhimov to make them at full potential rn

[atomic abyss]

no DR/PR ships are worth at even dev 20

they'll be outperformed by some max limit broken blue rarity ships at that point

[alpine musk]

is there a way to batch archive mails

[atomic abyss]

Drake is a DPS, Anchorage is a tank
completely different uses, anchorage should be prioritised for newer players

[undone plover]

Ring your waifu
Some have skins (3 more announced today)

If f2p it is unlikely u can ring for meta

[atomic abyss]

use the ring on a ship you like

[undone plover]

Not that it matters much tbh to ring for meta

[alpine musk]

guess not, time to click 500 mails 1by1

[undone plover]

U can batch claim and delete
Not sure about batch archive

[wind hazel]

same thing except the %

[undone plover]

Need 200 affinity for 12%

[half plover]

the meta ship is probably the event map drop again, right?

looks too cool

[undone plover]

She is yeah

[turbid latch]

is it okay if I continue my acc on washington or restart on enty server? I think that the Washington server is old and doesn't have many active players

[late flame]

i wouldnt restart

[turbid latch]

I have shimakaze here so im currently thinking twice ab it

[half plover]

this account looks like you will catch up in 1-3 weeks of active playing

shimakaze is by far no prio so don't worry about her

but again no need to restart really (ig)

[turbid latch]

why's that

[wind hazel]

washington best server, lots of active player (me)

[undone plover]

There is hardly any benefit to switching.
Server activity only matters for pvp (even then it is )
And for raid events which I havent heard washy struggling with

And I suppose meta assists but who cares about those

[half plover]

I mean meta assists for new players is nice but u could just convince mori to do fights lmao

[wind hazel]

i do love my 75x3

[wide marsh]

What does "damage modifier 0->1" in gear lvl 11 mean?

[undone plover]

4% dmg increase

6% for +12
8% for +13
Total 10>13 18%

[half plover]

that is bigger than I expected

[undone plover]

Only certain gear is worth spending gold plates on

[half plover]

moga gun to +13 is fine, right

[undone plover]

Check /plus13 in #bot-spam

[wide marsh]

I wonder why they cant just say "increase damage by X%"

[undone plover]

Eventually sure
Not as a prio imo

[undone plover]

Iirc it does on other server not EN

[half plover]

I think I need some help with these samheart graphics

it says red is high prio which makes sense, but green says niche usage, so is it usually red outlines -> no outlines

[undone plover]

Usually just ask

[half plover]

if no green is really needed

[boreal wagon]

OPS damage bost is in OpSi only

[undone plover]

The dmg modifier counts everywhere
The ops dmg increase (which is 3%) only for sirens in opsi

For the gold plates
I would do 2(3) champy guns + soyuz gun.
Then torpedo bombers 2x junker 2x saiun 2x ryuusei was a good mix. Not sure if the vit-2 changes this in anyway

For aux plates do UR table
Then 3x white shell and 2 HPFCR

Torp plates go into quad mags

AA plates not sure but I did 2 sexy and plan on +13 the UR aa after that

selectors and guild shop plates only pick gun + plane plates

[half plover]

is there a reason why wyvern is no +13 recommendation

[undone plover]

Anything after this u need more specific advise and depends what u have already

+13 is a luxury and u only really NEED it for boss one shots imo
So why +13 an expensive gear like wyvern when a +10 wyvern does the job fine

[half plover]

oh I see

[undone plover]

Best advise is if u are not in a rush hold on to your plates to see where u will need them

[half plover]

if I don't have soyuz gun because I didn't play at that time yet I would want 3 champy guns?

[undone plover]

Yeah I would do 3 champy in that case

[half plover]

thanks

let me check what gear I already +13

[undone plover]

U could +13 flandre gun since it helps u in ordering your BB salvos but that is pretty complicated stuff tbh and u can just do 3 champy and ignore that

[half plover]

I got +13 Admiralty Fire Control Table, +13 mog gun, 2x +13 champy gun, 1x +13 improved quad mags and 2x +13 quad mags

[undone plover]

All great choices
Any planes?

[half plover]

no, I just crafted 2 BF109G so I might want to +13 them both?

[silk sphinx]

How’s nakhimov?

I imagine a number have her done now

[undone plover]

I wouldnt +13 bf109 any more
At least do converging TB before them

[undone plover]

There is some showcase in #media-content
No hard data yet afaik

[half plover]

so I want bf109g at +10 and wait for the new pr7 plane to +13

[silk sphinx]

I think the bf109 is mostly still fine to plus13 since it’s a gold and the other fighter costs triple

[undone plover]

She looks good with soyuz

[silk sphinx]

Just be aware there is something flat out better

[undone plover]

I wouldnt +13 non-BiS gear

[half plover]

I am currently building chang chun and don't have that event missile, will that rerun be soon or should I just +13 this one if it is worth it?

I don't know if we will get that other gear in the first place again

[undone plover]

I would wait tbh
New missile better
Maybe they add it january
Aux plates are also in high demand

[half plover]

alright

[undone plover]

If u think it will help u push a content that u cant without it u could do it

[half plover]

I just want to upgrade prio gear rn

[undone plover]

Prio somewhat depends on u tbh

[silk sphinx]

If you want to. Not high prio

[undone plover]

Like goergia gun and mk7 are both good prio for +13
I prefer mk7 myself but some ppl do georgia first

[half plover]

so I'd want to focus on getting 1x champy gun +13, 1, junker +13, 1x saiun, 1x ryusei and 3x white shells? also beaver squad tag +13?

[orchid tulip]

what's a junker?

[silk sphinx]

Looks sane sure

[undone plover]

I think rudder is higher prio than beaver but I could be wrong

For the torp bombers I did 2 of each before vit2

Imo wait till we see amagi loadout
If new best antiheavy is nano/haku/amagi u will want to +13 the torps they use to sync
I still think 2 of each is fine tho

[half plover]

ty I will wait then

[orchid tulip]

I call it the Ju, like, can't go shorter than that

[silk sphinx]

Amagi is a stopper?

[undone plover]

We dont know could be
Why rush

#wiki-feedback better for this

[orchid tulip]

ok sorry

[cursive saffron]

Will there be a akagi and kaga retrofit?

[late flame]

maybe yes maybe no

[cursive saffron]

Ig in my dreams huh

[warm flax]

Should I?

[finite crag]

if you already have enough for fs5 then yea

no other use

[supple verge]

What is nakhimov role? Is it specialized in boss/mobbing or just to be put in with the other NP ships

[undone plover]

Bossing oriented
Though her best fleet is not very clear yet

Ideally u want to proc her NP req skill. there are several options though not very clear which one is best
And probably depends on content as well (I.e where and who u are fighting)

[earnest flare]

has anything from the jp anni stream happened? like any new info?

[plain saffron]

Check pins in #jp-7th-anniversary-livestream-discussion

[finite crag]

whats the 3d farming thing about, is it actually gonna be something ingame?

[vernal edge]

TBA

[eternal basalt]

Yes

[late flame]

a sneak peak but no info yeah

[finite crag]

so they showed it and said absolutely nothing?

[late flame]

it was at the tail end of the stream yes

[finite crag]

cool thanks

[whole crypt]

was there even mention that the farm thing will be an in-game function

I'm pretty sure parallel port is just their little pet project for showing cute SD characters

CN has been using it to put out scam alerts

[finite crag]

cool that explains it

[crisp wadi]

So about oathskin, if i want to unlock Bismarck skin, do i need oath original? Alrd oathed biswei

[whole crypt]

you only need to oath bis zwei to use oath skin on bis zwei

note that it'll still be under shared skins

[half plover]

I think there is a wording error in this

[whole crypt]

well feel free to correct what you think is wrong

[half plover]

u only have to oath bismarck II to unlock bismarck II skin

u mean only have to oath bis II to unlock original skin?

[whole crypt]

there is only 1 oath skin shared to bis zwei from OG bis

to use it on bis zwei you need to oath bis zwei, but you don't need to oath OG bis

[half plover]

oh alr, that clarifies a lot

[crisp wadi]

Yeah alrd oathed biswei like 5 months ago

[golden moth]

Thanks for the explanation hooo

[golden moth]

Sir if i may ask out of the topic.no sushi rerun announced on the stream yea?for.this yr

[whole crypt]

nope, next rerun is Roma and no other reruns were announced, Musashi is also like 3rd in line for chronological order if ran in order

[crisp wadi]

Pretty sure there's no UR rerun right?

[atomic abyss]

None announced at least

[golden moth]

Haa ig ill see her next yr haaaa

[atomic abyss]

No announcement =/= not this year

It's just

[ivory linden]

A good guess would be november, based off of last year but they might change it up

[eternal basalt]

It showed ingame awards and leveling. Why would that be there if not ingame

[golden moth]

Thanks guys atleast i know no announcement and i didnt skip vital info from the stream

The new amagi is a cv?yea?

[whole crypt]

got a screenshot? I didn't notice anything about awards and leveling

[atomic abyss]

New Amagi is CV yes

[eternal basalt]

During CN stream

[whole crypt]

which stream? CN anniv?

[plain saffron]

idk if it's my memory that's messed up but i think they did show some kind of UI before, like click button etc, but that one just now feel like a short anime ngl

Cn anniv yes

[whole crypt]

CN uses parallel port fairly often let me see if I missed that bit

[plain saffron]

2nd row right

[whole crypt]

ah right forgot that exists

ah well probably using the same engine but the mode itself isn't here yet

[plain saffron]

they prob also use the ingame feature as an engine to make the animation

[finite crag]

oh so it might be an in game thing

[plain saffron]

did they give date for project identity 2 and 3d dorm in the stream

or another coming soon™️. sadge

[whole crypt]

nope

nothing from Roma rerun onwards had dates

[plain saffron]

prob a month or 2

[whole crypt]

including Maryland retrofit

[eternal basalt]

Week 3 release

[whole crypt]

did they say week 3?

[eternal basalt]

I though you said oath skins, likely with the event

[whole crypt]

oath I went back to check they slapped it on week 3 yeh
Maryland didn't have a date

[kindred arrow]

So, with the cruise pass metas being made permanent Soon™️, which were the ones with good tech?
I know Yamashiro/Fusou and Hiyou/Junyou were great, anyone else?

Also do we get 120 tech if the ships are not mlb?

[eternal basalt]

Look at original, META have same

[kindred arrow]

Oh
Well that's handy, thanks

[undone plover]

Meta can go up to 120 without MLB

[eternal basalt]

They can give the boost, but won't get the boost

[whole crypt]

unless the crystals are hard to get or you intend to just XP pack all of them to 120 the question isn't very relevant

[undone plover]

Princeton meta is also rld if u missed her

[kindred arrow]

I'm thinking they'll be in the meta shop, and while the currency isn't *hard* to get, it's certainly time constrained

[eternal basalt]

Even harder if you haven't unlocked OPSI, or cant beat Harbinger

[late flame]

*Harbiter

[eager mulch]

*Habanero

[leaden osprey]

Wrath of Monoceros Caeli intensifies

[quartz jungle]

Fatui

[little tree]

When will amagi cv come out ?

[atomic abyss]

12th

[cursive lark]

Is musashi rerun announced?

[rugged summit]

any good beginner ship to farm pr xp for monarch

[atomic abyss]

Hood/Nelson and Unicorn
Ideally though, you only farm PR XP in w12

[rugged summit]

so should i push till world 12 before farming pr xp?

[keen sable]

saint louis is free. who else you want?

[eternal basalt]

Push to 12 while farming xp

[keen sable]

unicorn also free. nelson somewhat free

[leaden osprey]

Repulse is free

[plain saffron]

You could farm exp while pushing, but not main goal
Like if you're using a lot of uss ships you can set your building to uss ship

[rugged summit]

i have like tons of hms ships

[plain saffron]

Though tbh i would just ignore and keep pushing w12

[keen sable]

then surely you must be two fleeting by now and one of them must be good

[sinful elk]

Chat are these good enough for her

[whole crypt]

depends™️

[atomic abyss]

They're good gear, but not for Vanguard

[rugged summit]

i have like vanguard but the other ships tend to deal more dmg than her everytime so i stopped using her for grinding exp

[atomic abyss]

You're not exactly mobbing with Vanguard to use a 457

[whole crypt]

Depends™️

[leaden osprey]

She's mainly support

She helps others deal more damage

[sinful elk]

I need that 457 to make her fire first though (arbiter and enforcers)

[atomic abyss]

If she fires too fast, then your other BBs won't get the buff

Unless you're telling me you have 3 457s

[sinful elk]

Nah i only have 1 and 2 champy gun

[whole crypt]

all I'm going to say is Depends™️ until there's more context of the use case

[atomic abyss]

If you're using Vanguard as a mobber, 457 is fine

[sinful elk]

I want to obliterate the heavy enforcers!!!

[whole crypt]

which I already do with mob fleets so you're going to have to give more than that

[atomic abyss]

Vanguard already naturally fires faster than other UR BBs anyways

Even with the same gun

[sharp socket]

vanguard has 178 + 20% rld from her skill so shes very fast

[atomic abyss]

Anyways as nntktt said, there's too little information

[whole crypt]

what is the rest of your fleet and why on earth would you want to fight an Exploration with a BB fleet

Exploration is literally the only heavy armour enforcer and it screws BB fleets if you're not absolutely owning it

[sinful elk]

[elfin hollow]

does nelson benefit from flagship and if so- why?

[sinful elk]

Let me log in to get my fleet

[sharp socket]

is this about abyssal? or stronghold end boss, or harbiter

[atomic abyss]

Yes, because her barrage is based on her position

If she's off at the sides, half her barrage doesn't spawn and deal damage

[elfin hollow]

thank you.

[sinful elk]

I want to beat up this thing in one turn and can my bb fleet do it ( do i have to post their gears too? )

[atomic abyss]

Isn't that arbiter?

[sinful elk]

Oh

[atomic abyss]

@whole crypt it was Arbiter lul

[sinful elk]

Mb i still got confused between arbiter and enforcer

[atomic abyss]

Anyways no

At where you are in the game, you probably need 2 fleets or more to clear arbiter

[whole crypt]

well this month's harb is kind of annoying with carriers because shield

[atomic abyss]

Well if this is normal arbiter, you can just leave the area, heal and come back

[gaunt dagger]

how do i sell cats?

[atomic abyss]

You can't, you enhance other cats with them

[sinful elk]

Alright so what do I need to oneshot these arbiters

[atomic abyss]

You get better gear, you increase your tech etc

This particular boss is very difficult to 1 shot, even by arbiter standards

Are your adapts even at the correct level?

[sinful elk]

Yes

[inner delta]

what's this month?

[sinful elk]

Actually the survival one is not (106%)

[inner delta]

oh 20s shield one? shit

[atomic abyss]

...what are your adapts now

[gaunt dagger]

do u i do that tho?

[atomic abyss]

You find a cat you want to level
Enhance them

[keen sable]

Is she mlb?

[atomic abyss]

That is no where close to enough for arbiters bruh
Well tactical is fine I guess

[keen sable]

You feed them to one another

[inner delta]

no ender, that's enough if you have the good gear and ship

[rugged summit]

ran out of ur bulins

[inner delta]

that's my adapt last month cuz i forgot to play opsi

less than that maybe

[atomic abyss]

Yuki, he's using a level 115 Vanny

[inner delta]

i said good gear and ship

[keen sable]

That explains a lot then. Never use non mlb ships

[atomic abyss]

What's the max again, 203/203/154?

[inner delta]

idk

[rugged summit]

i see

[rocky fjord]

156

[atomic abyss]

Firstly, at your stage of the game
You want to get your adapts to 203/203/156 if you want to tackle Arbiter properly

Secondly, why are you trying to 1 fleet it even

Just use 2 or more fleets?

[sinful elk]

Because my game keep crashing after 2 fights

[atomic abyss]

[jaunty glade]

can you uhh abandon a daily quest in opi sci?

[south sequoia]

The quest stays in your mission list until you complete it

[leaden osprey]

It saves your progress tho, doesn't it?

[south sequoia]

You can leave daily quests unclaimed and the port will have them queued up but after 2 days you have to do the quests otherwise new ones will not spawn.

[mortal cedar]

Hello, how will the team work for you for the first time, otherwise I’m a complete newbie

[jaunty glade]

a few of them takes me to corrosion 6 zones... i can try I guess

[eternal basalt]

Just do them, leave the rest

[sinful elk]

Sometime it does sometime it doesnt

[wind hazel]

buy pennsylvania and helena from guild shop, replace long island/repulse, phoenix

[mortal cedar]

thank you ☺️

[mortal cedar]

can you name the complete team that I need to assemble first?

[atomic abyss]

Could we see what you have in your dock

[mortal cedar]

there's nothing there I'm a newbie

[atomic abyss]

Could you just post it first

[atomic abyss]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips

Anyways Mori's recommendations are based on these

I'd say Pennsylvania, Unicorn, Ranger, Portland, Helena, Z23, assuming you have nothing else

[elfin hollow]

How many chapters are in operation siren? it says 5 on the wiki even though im on 7

[atomic abyss]

Operation siren has 5
Campaign has 15

You're likely on campaign and have yet to even start operation siren

[mortal cedar]

Thanks a lot

[elfin hollow]

nope. been doing opsi (on and off moreso off) for months now and it's been reset with the new shop and stuff.

[atomic abyss]

There's only 5 chapters in operation siren

[half plover]

maybe u mean corrosion level

[half plover]

corrosion is like a guideline for ship strength, it requirestunings to get more offensive tactial and survivability stats bc they will influence your % strength to the enemies

[atomic abyss]

Corrosion level is map "difficulty"

[half plover]

tunings

[atomic abyss]

It's not the chapter

[eternal basalt]

That's your recommended corrossion level

[atomic abyss]

You have completed chapter 4 if you're seeing that quest

[eternal basalt]

5

[elfin hollow]

ive completed opsi im pretty sure

I did it about a year ago

[atomic abyss]

Then you shouldn't have that red "!"

[half plover]

no it is your main mission

[eternal basalt]

(ps trial bosses still 180/180/180?)

[half plover]

you didn't complete it yet

[eternal basalt]

These are post-5 unlocks

[atomic abyss]

Because it means you haven't fought arbiter

[elfin hollow]

well which is it

[atomic abyss]

Main mission

[half plover]

opsi reset unlocks after chapter4 but you still have to unlock arbiter, just do the red "!" missions

[elfin hollow]

I haven't? I coulda sworn I did

[eternal basalt]

Please help me and check if the bosses of these trials are still bugged

[half plover]

maybe u fought abyssals, not arbiter

a red boss symbol on the map

[eternal basalt]

There are 3 trial bosses before the real thibg

[atomic abyss]

It's to unlock arbiter

[elfin hollow]

I've probably not got good enough gear for that. How long does it usually take to unlock arbiter?

[wind hazel]

this is it, no?

[eternal basalt]

These 3 battles

[half plover]

you can't fail these missions, neither can you fail arbiter normal

just fight - heal at port - continue

it should only be a few fights left until arbiter

if this is not the last mission before arbiter unlocks

[elfin hollow]

Okay well I'm just now fighting Enforcer IX: Exploration if that tells you anything

[eternal basalt]

They still have (or had) 180/180/180 like beta Harbiter before downgraded to 156/+56/156

[elfin hollow]

resolve is low? what does that mean-

[lapis socket]

Starting azur lane is there any guide to this game I tried looking up on YouTube and they were old

[atomic abyss]

Resolve is low means you lost in battle

[atomic abyss]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips
This will be good

[elfin hollow]

timeout but yeah

how fix

[eternal basalt]

Usecother fleeet

[atomic abyss]

Well yes, so they can no longer fight unless you change fleet and defeat the boss, return to a port to heal them, or use the repair command that costs 50 AP

[half plover]

you have to win one battle to resolve it for your whole fleet, I usually just start any random map with a quest or c1 to kill an enemy and attack again

[elfin hollow]

Ah gotcha.

[half plover]

but just cycle through all your fleets first

[elfin hollow]

Thanks. Managed to beat.

[lapis socket]

Thank you

[elfin hollow]

welp. I found arbiter.

thanks for the help guys.

[half plover]

fighting arbiter now might be painful so you could wait a few days - weeks before u try again

so you get better gear or better ships / levels in the meantime

[elfin hollow]

after I win, does this mean im done with the opsi campaign?

[half plover]

yeah

[lapis socket]

Is there a good ur banner going on right now to reroll or no

[half plover]

I think this game is too f2p friendly to be worth rerolling for

u will get everything if u actively play

[elfin hollow]

screw that. I want this pain to be over and done with. Ill provide a nice jumping on her.

[elfin hollow]

reroll? you can reroll?

[half plover]

tbh I would start right now in your case

next major event is in like 5days and you won't be able to even beat the event stages which give good rewards with a fresh account

[mortal cedar]

and who to take from the selector at the beginning?

[half plover]

u can reroll any game it is just a waste

[half plover]

do you have enterprise yet? if not take enterprise

[elfin hollow]

what do you mean?

[half plover]

just create new accounts and ditch the old ones for gacha

[lapis socket]

Wym like the game? It’s downloading right now

[half plover]

but like I said why would anyone do this in azur lane

[mortal cedar]

How is that?

[elfin hollow]

ahhh that rolling

[half plover]

yeah just start playing and enjoy the game haha

[half plover]

or which selector are you talking about?

[boreal wagon]

rerolling in AL also doesnt exactly work well since currency isnt front loaded

[lapis socket]

Gotcha should I read story or skip it or skip it for now then go back to it

[elfin hollow]

all your irl money goes to skins or rings or dock space anyway, not really any benefit for ships

[lapis socket]

Yea I just read that on the guide

[half plover]

how u want to play the game, but no need to rush

[jaunty glade]

In the UR event next week, is their a chance to get a random UR or is it specifically that new UR in the pool?

[boreal wagon]

if you get a UR u get that UR
the permanents arent in the pool

[dry tree]

Does the siren killer or damage reduction against sirens also work on Meta Showdown? Or... Are they different?

[elfin hollow]

if only

[jaunty glade]

gotcha, so realisticly next week I can get the new UR + whatever I hit for the 400 UR pool? - no chance at other URs?

[boreal wagon]

what?

[half plover]

ah, I think all starters are good so just take what u like the most, you will be able to get all three pretty easy anyway. if u want a recommendation -> laffey

[undone plover]

UR event builds dont count for the perma pity

[boreal wagon]

the pool itself can only drop the event UR but the 400 pity is also the event UR, event builds dont build perma pity if there is a UR

[elfin hollow]

if only they were is what I mean

Amagi is the next UR right?

[boreal wagon]

so you want to actively make getting the event UR harder?
why would you want that

[jaunty glade]

so is the strategy next week to blow all cubes, even if I manage to get the UR early on?

[lapis socket]

Who’s the ur next week

[undone plover]

Depends on the other event ships and if any are worth getting (for personal or meta reasons)

[boreal wagon]

if you get the UR you can either dip or pull until you get everyone depends on your preference (and how good the other units are) and how many cubes u have

[jaunty glade]

gotcha, ok makes sense - was just trying to figure out of it its worth it to go past that but one of each sounds good.

[stark quiver]

Nobody does that, it’s get the UR and dip

[dry tree]

a..

[boreal wagon]

it does not META is a different faction

[elfin hollow]

depends on if you want more floofs or not

[jaunty glade]

im more disappointed that it doesn't count against the 400 UR count 😦

[undone plover]

If u want to min/max cubes do 3 daily and go all in last day if u dont get the ships u want
But make sure u have enough coins left otherwise u might run out

[lapis socket]

Wait is the ur the fox phoenix lady?

[boreal wagon]

it doesnt because it has its's own pity

[sweet delta]

Does meta showdown count as opsi? If there is a siren boss in enemy showdown, would it work?

[undone plover]

Yes. Her name is amagi

[lapis socket]

Omg yes I want her then. She looks so good

Will I be able to get her as a newer player?

[boreal wagon]

is siren killer (the skill) even opsi dependent (i dont think it was)

[sweet delta]

No, but the gear enhance is

[elfin hollow]

so just to double check- these can be said goodbye to if you either attack some random thing or you heal in port?

[soft raft]

If you get lucky enough maybe

[half plover]

it is not guaranteed because you will lack cubes but if you start playing today and gather as many rewards as possible it will highly increase chances

later on you will with smart cube saving and actively playing

[undone plover]

The event is 3 weeks
U get a lot of cubes during that period
U have a good chance
If u have enough for pity (200 builds) u can guarentee her

[sweet delta]

Healing in port doesn't fix it

[undone plover]

How many cubes do u have atm?

[lapis socket]

Got it thank you. I’ll skip story for now then. And the game just finished downloading so zero lmao

[elfin hollow]

oh... well who tf do I booly? I already completed this months map

[boreal wagon]

just enter a zone u already secured

[undone plover]

For now until the event just do 1 build on light pool
Dont spend cubes

[sweet delta]

Just enter a random map like you're supposed to anyways for daily missions

[lapis socket]

I’ll do that then thank you. What are the ur rates btw?

[boreal wagon]

1.2% but if you get it u get the event unit (no 50/50 or anything like that)

[elfin hollow]

great it fixed. thanks

[undone plover]

U could also play 2 accounts and then keep the one that rolls amagi

Cant really advise u to do this though since it might burn you out but it is an option

[half plover]

is this the best barrage gun for arizona to proc her heal? I don't know how I feel about giving her her unique aug just for opsi mob fleet

[sweet delta]

I know how i feel about it

[lapis socket]

Damn 1.2% is crazy but. At least no 50/50 so I say that’s good

[cobalt rapids]

there also guaranteed exchange at 200 pulls

[lapis socket]

Nah I’ll def get burnt out lmao. But I will be grinding until she drops everyday

[lapis socket]

Mmmmm how is spending on this game?

[undone plover]

Good luck

[cobalt rapids]

very generous

[elfin hollow]

do we know what type the new amagi is yet?

[undone plover]

CV

[lapis socket]

How much pulls would $50 usd give me?

[cobalt rapids]

usually theres no need to whale for pulls so u can spend em on other stuff

[boreal wagon]

i wouldnt advice spending money on pulls
its hardly ever necessary, this game is very generous

[elfin hollow]

great. in with the new out with the old.

[sweet delta]

I would advise spending money on lewd skins, not pulls

[cobalt rapids]

about 90 pulls if only getting the cubes but yea as advised prio

banner whaling is only done by rly impatient whales or rly flexy whales

[lapis socket]

What do the skins look like? I am an enjoyer of both older & younger looking characters

[undone plover]

Try and finish your weekly missions for this week
There is 12 coobs in em
U have 2 days

[cobalt rapids]

u should take a look for urself in #jp-7th-anniversary-livestream-discussion pins

[undone plover]

Just play enough u should be able to finish em

[boreal wagon]

they go from to really there is something for everyone best to just look urself

[lapis socket]

I’ll def try

[elfin hollow]

okay so I managed to chip away 30 or so lifebars give or take a few each jumping with arbiter.

shouldnt take too long then.

[undone plover]

Did anyone link you the newbie guide?

[boreal wagon]

ender did

[lapis socket]

Wowzers that whole banner is stacked. I like the blue haired girl sr

[jaunty glade]

what are the odds of them announcing anything else new tomorrow in day 2 of the jp event?

[elfin hollow]

does the newbie guide tell you the fastest way to get gear / prints? I'm extremely broke on gear.

[lapis socket]

Yes I have it on my monitor I’m reading it right now. Seems like I gotta join a guild to get the healer ship

[undone plover]

There is a public guild shop

[cobalt rapids]

no just open guild shop u start with 4k currency

[boreal wagon]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/research is probably the closest

[lapis socket]

Oh she just costs 4k that’s insane nice

[cobalt rapids]

no u start with 4k she costs 800

[sweet delta]

Level 11 player

[lapis socket]

So I get all of them then lol

[cobalt rapids]

yea helena unicorn portland and penny

[sweet delta]

Is the requirement for guild shop, maybe? Idk

Or is it just do join a guild

[lapis socket]

And thats my whole team already until i do the event

[half plover]

guild - (which means guild shop too?)

[boreal wagon]

i dont recall there being a requirement for guild shop at all

[wind hazel]

there isn't

[half plover]

a friend had the same problem that he couldnt join

[cobalt rapids]

uhm yea + ranger or smth

[half plover]

because his level was too low

[half plover]

for joining a guild there is a requirement

[wind hazel]

but we're talking about guild shop aren't we

[half plover]

but I forgot if it was connected to guild shop

yeah but how would u get guild coins without joining a guild

[wind hazel]

you get 4k for starting the game

[elfin hollow]

thanks. I had a quick look. doesnt look like it concerns me at the moment.

[cobalt rapids]

u start with 4k

[half plover]

oh I see

[undone plover]

Minimum 168 per month

[cobalt rapids]

comms is around 2 avg/ day if ure semi active to active

[sweet delta]

Depends on how much you play and do commissions so it could be 200 to 300

[lapis socket]

Is there a monthly pass?

[cobalt rapids]

there is yea

cruise pass is better value tho

but well get both

[lapis socket]

Battle pass I assume?

[boreal wagon]

its also bi-monthly

[lapis socket]

I’ll do monthly now & get the bp when the event drops

[elfin hollow]

im gonna need some help with fleets again soon. is it okay if I just post a thread here somewhere eventually?

[lapis socket]

Also is there a way to interact with the ships to learn more about their character & personality similar to how blue archive has momotalks or like nikke?

[cobalt rapids]

we have juustagrams and theres secretary missions but only for some

but well justagrams are mostly jokes

[sweet delta]

Everyone has voice lines

[wind hazel]

set them as secretary, tap various places on them

touch head, touch boobies ( ), touch hand

[cobalt rapids]

wrong placement

[inner delta]

[wind hazel]

it's gameplay

[undone plover]

@lapis socket
The position of ships in your fleet matters as well
If u want to double check u can post a screenshot of your fleet here

[lapis socket]

Oh okay I’ll do that I didn’t know

[orchid ferry]

Mob & Boss fleet help for campaign

[elfin hollow]

Okay arbiter sucessfully jumped

[plain saffron]

they did tease something like momotalk in EN(or CN i forgot) anniversary. so it's coming soon™️ content

[willow peak]

when is the black friday event?

[atomic abyss]

Well, the same time as the actual Black Friday, so November

[undone plover]

Last year we had it on Nov 16

[willow peak]

I see thank you!

[eternal basalt]

EN anni, CN was just a mention, JP was entirely missing

[jaunty vault]

hello guys how is new ship amagi UR

[inner delta]

[cobalt rapids]

hello cooper, shes rainbow rarity and cv

[jaunty vault]

hi

[inner delta]

ask ender, im lazy

he can do it now

[jaunty vault]

bye

[atomic abyss]

I'll do it in a bit

[jaunty vault]

@atomic abyss free admin ping yay

bye for realsies

[atomic abyss]

Bish why did you ping me when I was already here

[elfin hollow]

help with mobbage + boss fleet. Just overall, not needing any specific world requirements.

[cobalt rapids]

better dmg uptime, great shelling

• stagger

dpses are fake news

[undone plover]

With mobbing champy sometimes is overkill
Better damage distribution is usually preferred

[cobalt rapids]

457 is as overkill as champy

[undone plover]

But it has better distribution

[cobalt rapids]

corporate recommends the use of 457 over champy in campaign

[atomic abyss]

There's a few reasons
1 - the 457 doesn't sync with Helena, who is one of the best BB team mates in metas and opsi
2 - higher rof guns are better in campaign maps because it allows you to spread out your damage, allowing you to kill enemies more efficiently

[elfin hollow]

alright. i done made a thread.

[sweet delta]

3 - gold plates

[atomic abyss]

Not in this case

Think of it this way
Light carriers will normally launch around 18s-19s at 125
Regular carriers at around 21s-22s

You want your battleship to hit a damage window that the rest don't

In other words rather you dumping all your high damage in the span of 2s
In campaign it's preferred that you have damage over a larger window

[sweet delta]

Yeah don't hit the water

[atomic abyss]

honestly, it would have been easier to draw a graph to explain that than typing it out

[sweet delta]

Maybe

[inner delta]

then you messed up somewhere else

[atomic abyss]

is the enemy light armour by any chance

[quiet pawn]

do augment passives stack?

[sweet delta]

Ure right, if your Helena meta is slow and your BBs are slow, then your BBs whiff both their second AND third salvos

So 457 is better for low reload BBs because they whiff only the third salvo

[sweet delta]

If you mean this then it says right there

[left cedar]

depending on how low they are they go beyond 3rd
Thurin keep synced till 4th with 457 and Helena, no HPFCR

[edgy lantern]

Do 120 ships gain proficiency for lecture hall ?

[sweet delta]

We're not talking about Helena, or I thought we weren't

[left cedar]

i just wake up rn, and ENed, sorry

[lament bay]

does retrofit do anything for tech points?

[eager mulch]

no

[atomic abyss]

/fleettech no it doesn't

[odd root]

Bridal Z23

Q: How do I get more fleet technology points?
You get fleet tech points by:

1. Collecting the ship (~20%)
2. Max Limit Breaking it (~45%)
3. Achieving level 120 (~35%)

-Higher rarity ships gives more fleet tech pts .
-Heavier ship hulls also gives more fleet tech pts: CV=BB>CA>CL>DD

Side notes:
-PR ships give more fleet tech pts than normal but follow the above formula with development 30 replacing MLB.
-META ships are considered a separate META faction. They give same bonuses as their non-META versions.
-Collab ships, Muse and little versions of ships e.g. Li'l Sandy, Clevelad and Lena etc do not give any fleet tech pts.
-Iron Blood faction ships receive double the normal tech points compared to other nations.

For more information and exact amounts, consult the wiki

[edgy lantern]

Even if their not awakened?

[foggy chasm]

is this guide considering the amount of cogn chips? 173k chips atm, is it still valuable?

[atomic abyss]

yes

[undone plover]

this guide is overall research prio
depending on what u want to do u might prio one type more than the others

[foggy chasm]

hmmm

is the guide valuing the chips alot?

[undone plover]

probably not since it is aimed at your average player

[warm latch]

short time

[undone plover]

cubing is to finish a season fast and if u are willing to and capable of spending cubes on research
the cog chips are a nice bonus

[foggy chasm]

cubing gives more prints i guess?

[undone plover]

best overall prints/hour

well UL is better but those also cost cubes

[foggy chasm]

UL is soul forming right

[undone plover]

there is D-UL, H-UL and Q-UL
first 2 cost cubes and give ship prints
Q-UL is for gear prints

[proud turret]

What will be the next UR rerun after UR Amagi concludes?

[undone plover]

Musashi is the next UR rerun

[warm latch]

musashi should be the next UR rerun, no estimates on when it could be

[proud turret]

Thank you!

[vague shale]

It asks me to register 3 new royal navy ships which I did (bought 3 new ones) but nothing changed. Any idea what's happening?

[crimson glacier]

have to be backline

[vague shale]

Ah f me

[crimson glacier]

main fleet means back and vanguard means front

[vague shale]

That explains it

Thank you, time to see what I can get

[undone plover]

@vague shale read this when u can, and in academy put focus on season 4

[boreal wagon]

a) you probably dont want your email shown here
b) did you actually log in for the first time yet? (binding is for "restoring" and account so to speak)

[forest palm]

delete this screenshot for your own safty

[lapis socket]

When I logged in there was an account already made but I don’t remember downloading azur lane before unless it was a long time ago

[sweet delta]

Do you recognize the player nickname?

[lapis socket]

No it was random

[sweet delta]

[lapis socket]

It’s a fresh account only lvl 15 and I have 30 cubes & I think it still has newcomer bonus

[sweet delta]

Maybe past you made an account with a random nickname

[boreal wagon]

judging by the fact that you joined this server in may and talked in this server before in june you probably forgot about making an account

[atomic abyss]

done

and you can have your ping back

[whole crypt]

T8 still wasn't hurting at all

bullets were quite dense though so depending on how hard it scales up

[sweet delta]

Dense bullet sounds like Eldridge job

[whole crypt]

possibly, but the first glimpse will probably be T12 so that's still 2 days away

didn't really see anything special besides the waning/waxing moon field

[lapis socket]

Yea I don’t remember so do I just stick with this account then

[boreal wagon]

up to u really but i dont see why not (only thing u might be missing are some tutorials ig)

[fickle scarab]

Doing a no helena qeta one-shot for fun, best meta options?

[lapis socket]

No worries I’ll stick to this account then I already have 30 cubes only 170 more to go lol

[fickle scarab]

Still suroyuu?

[atomic abyss]

wichita meta

[fickle scarab]

I skipped her
Oh well

[whole crypt]

do you mean no Helena or no Helena META

[fickle scarab]

Both

[boreal wagon]

well, for event UR pity its 370 more to go because events cost 2 cubes per pull but just play the game (u might just get lucky as well)

[frank pulsar]

sushi alsace vanguard/zwei michita unzen plymouth
sushi uses 460, the other two use 457 and all three use hsfcr/afct

[whole crypt]

Souryuu and Ark were the carrier choices I think, Bearn supposedly can get some good timings on the knight window

[fickle scarab]

I don't have mitchita I hated that fight

[atomic abyss]

bearn does get good timings yes

[frank pulsar]

use helmet then, needs +13 ply gun at the bare minimum to be consistent though, and idk if it kills fast enough for this setup
