I do that
1 fight adds about 1/16 affinity
leftmost secretary gains affinity passively up to 90
your fdg went from 50-90 because she is your main secretary
other secretary slots dont count
only first secretary
so if you're not using your ships they won't get any affinity
time to speedrun oathing Nagato META
no off topic stickers pls
ok mb
how long isit to patch?
lv17 Nagato META survived 12-1 I think I'm set 
ik lv1 backlines survive 14-1
I'm not out of chips yet for now and it's less oil per affinity 
11-1 
that one I'm not so sure if Nagato will survive 
yes, possible
if they can survive 14-1, 11-1 is easy
11-1 is super discount 14-1 after all
I'm fine with 12-1 thanks
as long as she's not flag ofc
anyone tried Daisen gun on Musashi?
does it practically perform better than Izumo gun?
unsyncs her with helena and other BBs
if you disregard other ships and test her solo, daisen gun only increases her damage from izumo gun on heavy, assuming izumo gun is using autoloaders to match the timing
Mt in 13 hours?
l'auda is strong i guess
so are essex and tico, but notparticularly high prio in the tech department
seyd and jervis are good.
I still need vanguard ships for opsi
jervis would be great in opsi
and none of them are particularly valuable for opsi
the better answer would just be to not LB any of them without more context what your current fleet situation is 
Give me 10 mins then
if you are going to post your whole dock it would be better to do that in a thread
was room used in original ops? i think so?
for a bit i tihnk
jp
What I have
Who to retro next?
laffey, for your beginner missions
what am i doing wrong?
as said in the red text
none of your fleets total level add up to at least 480
fleets with at least 480 total level >/= 1
ooh each fleet????
at least one needs to be
jesus oke
push your unicorn up
only got her yesterday XD
use the exp books
Hello, how many Prototype tenrai should i own?? And what PR number it is again?
2 tenrais at minimum, it's from PR4
your prio shd be getting another wyvern
Ohh. Isee, howmany should i get??
1 more
I see thanks! Bro!
also - don't upgrade gear over +10 willy nilly
for upgrading 1 rainbow gear to +13, you can upgrade 3 gold ones to +13
Ohhhh i see thankss
Are there Ur weapon should i get? Like the magnetic torp or Ur sub torp?
There are, but not those
after wyvern, should be another mk7 i guess
Ohh the iowa gun?? Okay!
or just wait for them to add new one 
if just weapon designs then ya MK7 works out, otherwise if Ords are included an extra 457 wouldn't hurt 
What the armor type of the OpSiren boss rn(hard)??
who is it this month
Light Armor Boss with a Medium Armor pet 
no way its light this month
if it is Jelly then that is in fact light
oh hermit
not jelly
then Heavy Armor which is just unga
So HE weaps right?
HE is straight ass in hermit
for some reason during an excersise my main fleet bbs decided not to fire for a pretty long time. is that a visual bug (saying they were reloaded when they weren't) or is there some skill that can do that from the other fleet
enemy cv concealment prob
They eventually fired though (and this was after both vanguards gone) does detection go up even without vanguards
When enemies launch an airstrike for example it does
ok thx
Whens the event coming out?
Also do non-mlb ships earn xp towards pr even if they're level capped because of being not mlb
tomorrow
As soon as time change or maintenance update
yes but really?
going for chkalov and only have 3 backline ships that work and don't care enough about litorrio to use my last gold bulins on her
maint update
Maint starts in 11 and a half hours
Maint itself should take 8 hours but it might be 10 depending on whatever happens over at Manjuu
for what is cat box?
cats
Damn looks like no retrofit helena till tmr
Meowfficers
and how i open it?
CL40 in the cattery

What does that have to do with maint?
Post your dock in a thread first
where?
if you post your dock in a thread, i or someone can take a look
if you've just started, bog standard would be Pennsylvania / Unicorn / Carrier (Saratoga if you have her) + Portland / Helena / Starter DD
is afct a serious damage boost
though, i think some of the other coin BBs are getting a retro, so they might stack up better than penn in the long run
I just finished the newcomer and got 30 DR bp for series 1-4 only, can I use it any of them or should I prioritize certain ones? I already maxed fDg and am working on hakyruu and agir
A
This thing
A
It's a straight upgrade over the HSFCR if that's what you mean
Same purpose, better stats
is this for me?
maryland is the first guaranteed bb with a retro. good point
No
I would've replied to you not the other guy if that was the case
Can help for a good fleet
lolol fsfs i was a bit confused
need protocore?
But to answer your question, generally you use the blanks only on the highest season they go up to
Oh ok, because im using it on NJ for faster proc but for damage im still using black and white shell
done ^^
i have tenrai and 2 champy guns already
plygun, 457, drake?
what gun is drake gun? also I save up for CL gun if its priority and I have a 457 mk7 already and I have the med/heavy gun that shoots 2 shells
triple 234
i was gonna build in gearlab eventually so CL gun prob cuz i cant craft?
yes
how does future protocore look? any cdp and catchup left?
cdp?
combat data packs. the exp stuff you get from beginner missions and cruise
Magneto start in dmg reduction or dmg buff?
Yeah im working on the last catchup and I did all cruise
and still short protocore. yeah i'd convert the dr
so just keep converting from newcomer and cruise for ply gun?
Where do i get this?
event only
Which one?
i think so. it's the primary way until you start overproducing bp from research
welcome to little academy
Ugg. How did i miss it
Oh i have it. Its in it the bottom of inventory. 
Is dynosaur aux good or should i change it with something?
I just changed her Gears cause I didnt know before that she can use CA gun on third slot
Are CVs Better at fighting the New Meta boss?
Rip gold plates but change it to fumo, and the torps are likely better used on someone with better torps
any nagaM one shot fleets?
yes, CVs are better since enemy is heavy
Im Using Musashi Bisko2 and the UR EU BBV forgot her name. Which CVs are good vs her?
whwt would they be?
kears is very questionable for heavy
she is also questionable for 3 BB comps
best comps in theory are musashi/haku/nano
lacking musashi, impla
I just put UR BB cause fire power 
kears is best for anti light CV comps 
Does the Perseus airstrike load debuff apply to aux asw planes?
I wonder if Amagi2 going to be good for that comp
would the usual hakunanoimplac work
Am I crazy or did manjuu confirm something about old cruise pass skins and stuff returning
if you have nakh, she is strong too
they confirmed it since May 2024
Oh okay. Ty
how would the gearing work?
With Helena many things can work
what do you mean how 
same as always
no sashi gun 💀
Do i need a Certain Timing on their attacks? and use heavy armor oriented weaps?
if you're using musashi, you need eldridge
otherwise your last airstrike hitting is complete rng
My eldridge still not maxxed 
0 backline buffs doesn't sound too good , normal heavy Cv fleet is already struggling
Does Eldridge stats matters? Can oath her and at lv 113 can use books to 120~5 and will have her red skill lv10 at 12 hrs.
as long as she stays alive
Thanks. Im gonna put her in the middle for now then
So its gonna be?
Implaca/Musashi or Haku? /Shinano
Anchorage/Kazagumo/Unzen
ideally it would be Soyuz, Nahkimov, Shinano, Plymouth, Kazagumo, Unzen
a bit pointless to conjecture for now though with Amagi CV dropping tomorrow
My Nahkimov is not dev 30 yet ill put plymouth then
im level 100 with no idea how to build ships/fleets are there any websites that explain how to do this stuff ?

Maybe they made Amagi Magato's biggest fear 
Me im 141 and i still have not much idea as well. I just put URs and stuff
who is the next addition to the dossier meta fight?
Algerie probably
ty
Newbie guide doesn't really explain fleetbuilding stuff outside of "you want a BB on flag" and "Tank on the left most position" btw, so link to the actual fleetbuilding guide next time 
And i thought Brest is a Mob Tank cause she can heal.
Well she works for both Mobbing and Bossing
I always have Anchorage for my boss tank cause she is tanky and dodgy
Well, all boss tanks can mob tank 
Is there a way to level up quickly as a beginner
OpPsi/General fleet help.
Nope, just grind with a full fleet, you can also buy a boost to Lv70 for 5$ if you prefer 
beginner pack is probably most worth for a starter acc
This doesnt explain anything
It just says what someone built for each world
We don’t normally recommend that guide
The person who suggested that link was wrong for doing it
Or perhaps, just not as helpful as they had wished
which one should i use on Kearsarge
These are the ones to use instead
Both are fine. The one to the left (pancake) has better interception but otherwise both are great and equivalent
Are there guns simply superior to others or do they all have a different purpose
also im building Queen Elizabeth META
what main gun should i use also why she need quick reload gun?
Some guns are just better, and some guns are virtually never used. Some guns are good for beginners while you’re building your gear stockpile
It’s important to understand the situation though, the key thing being for example is the armor class of the enemy
(Light/medium/heavy)
As well as some other stuff like caliber restrictions for cbs for example
If you want a quick guide to what gear to use when ectl tier list is a great guide to start checking what gearing is “best”
Just click on the gear icons to understand the use case
Otherwise use Sam’s excel to have a more in depth presentation of gear stuff
neither
Uh the one to the left is a fast HE gun, the one to the right is I think the Odin gun, both are fine mob guns
oh your building her, not fighting
id honestly go with left one
so this one is wrong? ;-;
Alpha here was exaggerating/wrong
uhh, id just stick to the left one, but guns are context dependant
It's not really worth getting that gun at the top if you don't already have it, and that gun is usually suboptimal anyways
Honestly just use a mkA or a 406mk6 or mk7 (3rd to sixth options from the top)
Same goes for the second from the top, which is even worse
It's basically just these 4 (and the ones hidden behind them) for almost all BBs almost always
If you don’t have the gear on the ectl tier list then check the samheart excel (ask for it and someone will link it) or ask here for substitutes
yea the purple one would suffice
I may be wrong but ectl basically has two gearing formats for bbs, shelling or barrage bbs
Those two guns at the top have fairly fast reload and are HE (considered the most “general use” ammo type (not rly especially for late worlds) so emphasize the barrages
Anyhow you can use the same guns for almost everyone, no need to build those two gold guns
Do you mean this? https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/home
is ibuki aug any good?
Not for someone who's hardstuck 11-3

She's basically a torp version of drake in terms of damage, but much less tankier
I did actually mean that by ectl yes
Sorry going over my notes - busy these days

Masters plus moving is really messing with my free time
Anyone know whats up with these paws?
/wiki Akashi quest
vit-2 better than ryusei?
timing sidegrade
With same amount of strikes slightly better iirc
I feel like the vit 2 also lags behind the other convergings on strike which could effect its geometric accuracy
Im curious is akashi even good for the fact you technically spend about a month doing this
Nope
She is good at wasting your time
, just think it as having extra reward for doing something , just don't think her as the real reward .
Real
She is indeed the scam cat not only for your money but your time
get her oath skin too
farm W12
what if im only on w10v
Or if you can't do 12, W9/10/11 are good.
Move to farming 12 once you have a fleet that can handle it, since you get a trickle of cog chips along with your coins.
This
then wait to farm D3 of the event tomorrow
War Archives D3 > 10-2
And the best part, it takes 5 battles to reach it, why do C1-D2 event exist anymore
How long until maint?
7 hrs 36 mins
Anyone got a good Plymouth build?
got it and which point does campaign become better?
Where u get dat box
only one build really 
it was from an event
replace it with a Toolbox or an HP aux
Ight thx for the help
10-3/10-4 or so but you won't see significant differences until 11-1. But it doesn't really matter. You only have 1 or 2 days left before event farming begins.
right
toolbox mentioned
MeGPT not mentioned
whats wtong with tool box
Who said there's something wrong with tool box
There's no gold version of it, probably. That's the worst offense.
i was told camo gear which is a blue is good tho
Yes - it is good. For most cruisers, they're going to want an HP gear and an EVA gear. Blue Camo provides EVA.
Not for most (or all?) CLs and DDs
mebot when is UR rudder 
March 2025, with Gear Lab VII.
and eHP4
ah so that's when we get auxes in the gear lab
New gear for opsi to farm 
I believe there are only like 10 DDs that prefer IPH to Toolkit. This leads me to believe that NO DD's prefer bluecamo over toolkit.
( I did the math for 550, but not for Toolkit )
All DD's require 2 toolkits or a replacement HP aux
.
.
But that was ehp2?
+13 gold is 1.07 max vs +11 purple 
what is iph
Im Proved Hydraulicrudder
Still good calc.
ignored
should i use my UR bulins on UvH, Kron, or wait for Amagi CV?
wait for Amagi CV
Wait for Amagi
Wait for Amagi CV
No one uses Uvh 
wait for amagi chan 
is 283 fastest BB gun?
according to the wiki yes
A +10 or higher BB purple 283 is indeed the fastest BB gun currently
There's the SuchiCannon that has a 12s cycle though
is longest range secondary 137 then?
I see Kawakaze in the merit shop , is she a good substitute for Shimakaze as a torp focus DD ?
why torp focused, just use good ship, but both are good
I don't have shimakaze , pulling her now is not good idea , plus SSR ship is easy to MLB .
if rich shouldn't you just get cc
What is CC
chang chun
is hakuryu still good?
yes
grind 12-4 a lot
it only saves time
2x reward multiplies everything by 2x
thanks!
use it if you want to play less
its basically just a timeskip, but takes the same amount of resources
Sometime you gotta practice the habit of saving and not spending a lot...that mean cut down some upgrades for awhile...
Only worth it if you lack time to play the game for long periods of time, if you are playing for quite awhile in a day it will not be worth it
also you get quite a lot of coins fron 12-4
okay thanks!
When is the datamine usually on maint day 
close to EN maintenance start
how abkut zuihou? is she any good? cuz i fsel like she can be on par withu nicorn
yes and no
oh, is she more like ryuuhou
Basically a better ryuuhou yea
I have a champy gun and a MK7, between Nj and B2 who should get which gun
whats the context
ayanami is so op for single target manual damn
You choose the gun based on the enemy armour type
is lutzow strong ;(
Meh, Seydlitz is better
Hood is even better
for pvp, what aux should i have on felix schultz?
i did but no answers 
where to check for stats/armors of bosses and enemies in campaign? or does the map give a clue?
Well , one of few IB ship that have wide area barrage , though not spectacularly strong
hell nahhh i upgraded wrong ship
ya but there is like 4 green auxes im just wondering which 2 are optimal? or can i just slap on any 2 greens and call it?
thx
mix and match
cyanide support towel and rpg interface good?
sure
Does using meta ships during a meta boss provide some sort of advantage?
which is best cv healer for mob. perseeus or zuihou or unicorn
Unicorn retro
Only for Queen Elizabeth's meta battle specifically
idk her damage kinda low
They dont need to do damage
Ah, I see
She is retrofit right?
In any case, none of the healers damage are particularly notable - unicorn has the highest to begin with
the other 2 do less so your point is?
also, perseus is the one with theoretically lowest damage of the 3... she quite litercally cant do much after you use up her preload
and you think perseus damage is high??
hmm
I only have one each tho
you put the best gun on biskii
I would say niche
Well, better than lutzow, around the same as Seydlitz, still worse than Hood and Strasbourg
nuh i don't have strong vichiya ships for Strasbourg
sy-1 missile good?
since its the only missile available rn thats not event locked, yes it is
missiles are only locked to DDGs
cuz it could be good for ayanami
If my airspace control value is in red , can i beat the stage using 3 BB and heavy AA vanguard ?
ayanami isnt a DDG
the only ddgs ingame are retrofits of the anshan class excluding fu shun
hey guys, i got a question about the UR amagi, do we already know about her skills?
no idea what "the stage" is
not yet
Wait for her datamine
alright
She can't use it
Only 3 ships can
The retrofit versions of Chang Chun, An Shan and Tai Yuan
Depends on the map
Pure oxygen torp is a bad gear by the way
W12 feasible , after 12-2 ?
what
sure if you have 3 BB UR
sure but like why
if ur planning to BB force w13 think again ur gonna die
the only info he gave about his situation is that he's in air parity and he has 3 BB boss

~~If you're planning to 6 BB/BC 14-3 you can consult my video for an example ~~
Will the UR amagi tommrow give at least 80 faction tech?
Still raising my other CVs to address the situation , i was able to pass 12 1 and 12 2 with 3 CV , starting from 12 3 it is a sharp rise in ACV , sure i can beat mob fleet but the boss caught me by surprise .
It's tough on lethal, but should be doable
At least push it to superiority
no point in 3 starring war archives right? just rush last mission?
Yes, no point
Correct. The three-stars are there only to satisfy your OCD urge to complete everything.

does someone has a tierlist for me?
Have you looked at the ectl one?
ectl? What that
Type azur lane ship tier list on google and it hopefully will show you his guide
read the guidelines and faq page beforehand
But some of the newest ships doesnt have his opinion yet
Note that most of the content of this game is very forgiving. You don't need top-tier ships for most things; feel free to use a ship you think is cute if you'll have more fun that way until you reach the very hardest stuff.
I would advise the opposite
Invest in meta-relevant ships so that you can hard carry your waifus thru the relevant content
like zuihou?
Yes, like Zuihou
can you give me an opinion about her?
I didnt use meta ship be4 w12 and still have time to raise a few meta one , i say play at your own pace
Do i need all sakura planes for hakuryuu to activate her skill or i just need 1?
just one
any slot?
yes
Thank yoyy
She's a better ryuuhou
Third best secondary healer in the game, but you don't need secondary healers till w14/15 (hardest content in the game)
Use unicorn (retrofit) for your healing purposes instead
since new Amagi is a CV the event banner will be special pool right? like Vittorio wont drop while i pull?
I would disagree, banner pool is almost always determined by the headlining ship
Simply put, there's no way to find out until we start building
if it's special pray for meta subs
All i see is Shounen or Hey Shikikan
Is there some other website to view fleet tech? The wiki won't load completely for me.
Fleet tech tracker for Azur Lane
I know people usually advise not to waste cube for research , but what about the Soul Forming one ? I rarely see it appear and now there is one in front of me.
is there a UL in the code?
are the UR datamines out?
no, not for a while
if it's a 30 min UL they're typically worth taking provided you're not hurting for cubes
can some1 give me a one shot fleet for nagato meta? or is there not one?
thanks. would you say amagi CV is worth it or no?
how would we know
Generally datamines arrive before the EN server goes on maint but that can vary from very early to just before maint starts 
How to get rid of xtra meowfficers if all my main meowfficers are max lvl?
Well i should reiterate. What are some primary Sakura ships that i need to potentially make Amagi UR work? cause I know theres some meta ships and etc
haven’t played game in a while how to get more coins again 💀
ik u wouldnt know what would make her work but the best ships for that chance to make her work happen
A) we dont know amagi cvs kit
we know nothing about the ship
B) how should we know
so we can't say at all what ships would be best or even good to pair with her
pick one "fodder" cat from the useless cat pile, and feed all the other cats to the fodder
bonus points if the fodder cat has either +exp gain and/or +exp when consumed traits
can some1 give me a good fleet composition for nagato meta?
shinano haku implac agir kaza unzen should be an easy 73 if not more
and bold of you to even assume her best partners will be Sakura Empire ships in the first place
Oh yeah. Haven't thought about that. Thanks
which ship is the flagship?
we can only assume if we dont know anything
Doesn't matter
also what ship is kaza again?
nagato copium 
Kazagumo
shinano but it shouldnt really matter too much
when will datamine come? 2 hrs?
anyway, just wait a few hours
https://i.imgur.com/Wi8qXoy.png this gear good for shinano?
both a yes and no
meta fight gear is different from normal gear
the gear on that site is for campaign iirc which is why its bad for bossing
You run converging torpedoe bombers in slots 1 and 3, then dive bomber is tenrai yes
shinano haku implac agir kaza unzen ok what gear should i have this comp then? i know nothing about gear i only blindly follow wiki
this is also fine for haku
assume augument for all cv is bow instead of staff?
1 scepter 2 bows
does it matter who has the scepter
not rly but usually shinano has it
the gold planes i wont have +13 but i assume thats probably fine
usually not fine
there is a pretty big difference to having all planes at +13 compared to 10
bro i spent all my gold plates on rainbow planes.... and all my rainbow planes still not at +13
if you are upgrading non tenrais why are you upgrading non tenrais before gold planes
even then you should upgrade the converging torps before tenrai
inb4 wyvern
idk i thought rainbow = bis = go apeshit on upgrading
wdym
best way to grind coins again
this is why you either +10 or +13 so you can still change ur mind before pressing upgrade like an ape
Don't +11,+11,+11, it's focus one gear to +13 or bust
well i did not know that... im lvl 131 and i literally dont know shit other than wiki guides lmfao
if you cant +13 dont spend plates
because you either spend plate on the wrong thing or change ur mind later
Wiki has guides? 
slaimuda github or w/e
There's riceist's cat guide and that's it 
ape brain follow good. ape brain dont think
personally, the best guide for me is to linger around here in gph and watch peoples convos
how long i got till maint
5 hours
Just under 5h
Grind the dailies and weeklies
tysm for answering me
i believe there’s also a world map to get coins too aka 12-4???
spam 12-4
u get good coins and can level up shitters
@stark quivercan i just use slaimuda github's gear rec for agir kazegumo and unzen?
what no

We could recommend stuff - but do you even have them?
the update is in abit right?
i guarantee you if you recommend the gear i probably have it. not at +13 most likely but definitley +10
if you think 4-5 hours is abit then yea
cool thx
For Nagato Meta most likely not, if you are looking for a "general" stuff probably something like this? 
oh there's stuff cooked for Nagato Meta? 
smh still using 76mm instead of 113mm 
saving this
got my money ready in time to pull
does he know
does he know there's a red name in chat
yeah that’s what i thought
ender my bff 
#al-general for such posts please
oh ok
tysn
how many helena proc we looking at? one?
You can afford to be more liberal with offensive auxes against Nagato
If one scan can kill then Helena shouldn't be in the fleet
is nagaM just a dps check

Mostly a DPS check yes
lovely
Unless lv15 makes her significantly deadlier
It's already touchy as is with Nahkimov
Best just to wait and see what Amagi CV brings to the table for now
This wasn't for NagatoM
just gave him something that he can use in "general", since he was blindly following ECTL
what would the 2nd best gun be if i dont have sashi gun
I highly doubt this is killing metato at lv15
izumo or pr7 one
People with dev 30 nakh don't have la9, and nakh without la9 is not impressive
is this bis against nagatometa?
Absolutely not lol
no
Mogador doesn't do good against heavy at all
ok ill go back to the one Sm00thie posted
But that's at 14 - not 15
Dont know about 12-4 'cause im still stuck in ch. 11. Dont skip on cruise missions as well. Although it takes a lot of time, but if you 100/100 it, you can rack in 24K coins. 13,500 coins in weekly, by the way.
that's one way to brick my nickame 
40%
and a ur bulin 
How many people are even going to have +13 sushi gun anyway
still better than ply lmao
Well it seems like you don't cuz you get way more than 13500 coins in less than an hour in 12-4 
well better as in within 1% better or worse than ply
an hour of 12-4 is closer to 60k ish
@remote yarrowty smoothie for building a comp for me i go bedge now and i wake up and use the shiny new comp to try and one shot nagato so i use less brainpower
Sorry to pop your bubble but it wont 
smo0tie do you think your comp is one shotting?
easily lol especially if 13-4 just full farm
Hell naw 
well even if it doesnt one shot if it comes close im happy. i cba always throwing random comp together to do 40% dmg and have to run the node 3 times
i think there was an egregious meta boss i could not break 25% at times and had to run it 4 times. that was so triggering
Helps to actually read the mechanics of the fight

Not this time
helps to not blindly follow ectl i constantly follow ectl general chat
gonna be honest with you. i played the game for 3 years and havent read a single story...
Oh shit. Haha. Man, I really need to advance the campaign story
aint got time to read outside of FGO cuz FGO's story slaps hard...
well seems like the perfect time to start
story != mechanics, i haven't read story in years either but i know game mechanics from reading
and from people here too
no time 
Dude it's just a couple of lines to know what the boss does
fgo has so many events i need to take my time reading just dont feel like reading other gacha game stuff

And yet you have time to come in here and ask stuff...
its a sentence or two
It's not even a paragraph
isnt a paragraph 3 sentences
Well it doesn't matter
It's a bit paradoxical, it's something that doesn't take a long time to do at all but will greatly improve your success
Would you rather read the homework questions or ask a friend for homework answers? 
well ok
i know nothing of gear mechanics/ship mechanics. So even if do know the fight mechanics, it's like i don't really know what to do right
Prior, I like learning 
I would rather at least attempt to do something and learn it
put in a small amt of time each day and just learn a bit
maybe start with armor types and what gears then else
so it's like i can read the homework to say french, but since i don't know a lick about french, reading it aint really gonna help..
all i know is HE is good against enemies with no armor/low armor and AP guns good vs. enemies with high armor lul
I have no idea what even constitutes as no armor in this game
I guess light?
its heavy medium and light armor
This isn't exactly WoWs where plating and belt armor thicknesses differ
light is still armor 
heavy, medium, light, and plot
There's 3 types of armor in AL and only 3, light, medium, and heavy
And there's no such thing as no armor in AL 

I brainfarted
So how do you know the gears/comp you gave me is good against meta enemies
even then ur still not penning the best shot and penetrating the worst shot on the same place
testing + knowing how gearing works + timing n stuff

I didn't I said that's "general" gear, not Nagato Meta gear
Ngl timing stuff is too complicated
just lurk on this channel. later tonight you will see bunch of
posting comps and shit

when that happens just copy them. if it doesn't work, copy another that work 
more like tmrw
Suchi comp waiting room 
What’s that
EN is a day late to comprehensive testing on 15 showdown except for cheaters
this guy, he's good at making comps I guess
is it 8hr maint
yes 8

What’s the event tomorrow is it a full shop event and w/e
Well nvm 
just watch me cook, bumper bulin time
Ok well I’m probably gonna slap some random ass comp together for the event for my pr7 ship since I got like two ships left to develop
Since event nodes are w/e I giga afk them anyways
So does everyone else
Is Napoli expected to be better than Anchorage?
strict upgrade
except when you need timed smoking
does anyone have a video of bulin ramming
How strong is the admiral whatsherface from pr7?
amagi indeed 8 planes
3x145/2x145/3x160 that's effectively 9 planes already
what about the guy who started opsi and got the 1 level for free
that's not called comprehensive
Theoretically the best carrier in the game
let me do some tweaking with that fleet
Is datamine out?
Just have a lot of new players
Wouldn't sushi do more 
Not for at least another hour
I saw a skill needing 12 stacks

should, was testing that comp posted earlier
i dont see it remotely near 60%
are cn posts now just random 1% kill fleets then tagged 60% as a clickbait


So what was this about being mobbing oriented I was saying earlier
when sortied with ijn flet increase avi by 15% 
50% reload for first strike when sortied with akaga
really? that's trash
akaga fleet is so back
aint no way
I mean I don't think you'd actually go for that
That'll probably never get used
ay they made a trash IJN ship
so sortie with akaga for 0 gains?
Akaga already naturally have the 50% anyways
id for anyone that want
It's probably just flavour text, I hope
whats her rld?
That we need to wait 
323
is repo updated?
What's 323
Her reload?
Nagami wat 
yes
her loadout
yeah suchi alr sent her loadout
So this
damn
Wtf in the shop
thats a versatile ass ship
Oh, patch notes said the shop had some special gear skins.
Is this a Chkalov situation
6 gear skin
Also can you check if new story is up in my site latias
holy shit
15% more damage for all IJN torps including tb
Nagami? We need you. Right now. We need portraits. Like STAT.
lol ok thats prob more than enough to kill nugget
bullshit lmao
No I'm doing datamine first
Also looks like they added gametips specifically to say kaga and amagi can't share skin
Ah.
Actually, if you go by this
Wouldn't she be pretty slow 
And 15% IJN sub torps
ijns have subs?
Don't get me wrong Goya is one of my favourite ships but uh
I don't remember the IJNs having strong subs
They have the weird sub carrier even, rice
The premium UI skin btw
yeah we already had that leaked a few days back
Why is there a bulin in the backline
it was revealed in stream wdym leaked
bulin ddg
what is the ehp of bulinddg
Probably also 20%
the stream shows diff one
Chkalov was 0/4/4
So Amagi can be either
3/2/3 or 0/5/3 or 0/3/5
That's pretty interesting 
ooo
would there ever be a need for 0/5/3 though
Not sure why you'd ever use 0/5/3 tho tbh
If there was, I'd imagine Hakuryuu would have been using it
Farmable ryuuseis (again?)
oh other question they never gave a date to when old cruise pass skins would be perma-added?
They never did
Ryuusei d3 yes
Lol
hi guys lets say i have an mgm+2 BB, would a volley be all 3 mgm shots together, and a salvo just be one of the 3 mgm shots?
My interpretation has the definitions swapped
idk
All I know is that AL has been EXTREMELY inconsistent about this
thats generally the terms the game uses (except when it doesnt)
cause imagine having consistent game terms
but iirc MOST of the time it uses those
good to know cause its relevant for hiei meta
And from what I remember from speaking with the TL team
AL does the opposite of this definition
You need to check what the skill itself does exactly
The same thing happened with og renown

i think dork has something with it too
yeah, dork says "first salvo does 50% more damage" when its supposed to be volley

Consistency is a lost art
they make it up in al censorship
AL has no censorship 
📣 ⁉️
Well, there were but those were long ago
It does, but moreso in CN than JP/EN
Oh, there's a new patch and soon to be a datamine?
Ship, amagi UR CV coming like, in a few hours 
I saw Sam's post and assume it's coming soon
So ofc there's going to be a new datamine soon
Mfkr, Amagi got a ur
She turned into a carrier
watarase barrage looks cracked based on numbers
mfw geohit = 0.04
How cracked is cracked
L'auda tier?
Geo hit?
theyre like ibuki aug torps
....wait who was the agano kaii class
Her or Ayase?
Geometrical hit - like actually bullet's hitbox touching the ship's hitbox.
So "geohit = 0.04" means the barrage does not hit the ship.
wait theyre aimed bullets that scale trp with 155 dmg, .9/1.1/1.3 and ignores shields
shes only 1mgm though
idk what the proc condition of s1 tho
They're not Akizukis
Ofc they're 1mgm
"when the flagship launches an airstrike / main gun" (similar to eldridge kai; 5s cooldown between activations)
sadge
do we know how amagi cv compares to everything else rn? or is that datamine not available yet
its coming soon tm
Speaking of Augments, how good is Tashkent's?
pretty good
Very good
Pushes her to Sandy Kai w/Aug tier damage
theyre prob like 5x stronger than ply barrage tho
is it just me or were the Bofor staggs taken off the craft lidt
lol her entire kit just ignores shields, aoa included
What?
is it only 5 ships this event?
royal navy +anti air
you don’t have any prints
Oh 
ive been doing series 4 all day so how bro 😭
3 gacha, store, and points
Rng
i dont know that there is one in this server
this is why I craft some of mine even if some people think it's a waste of precious gear lab mats lol
barrage numbers up in the usual place, ill double check everything when tl is out

was it mentioned that this event might have event gear?
damn
can you check if amagi cv's burn damage taken debuff (skill 3) stacks with itself, cause tl says max 2 stacks but its unclear if that increases the burn damage taken more or not
Only gear skin in shop
Where do I press?

on the 3rd skill?
Centre?
google translate seems ok
150460 Plan for a plan for eternity
During battle, your own aviation attribute increases by 15%; when in a team (surviving), the damage caused by surface torpedoes,
submarine torpedoes, and aviation torpedoes of the Sakura Empire characters in the team increases by 15%, and reduces the artillery,
torpedo, aviation, air defense, and evasion attributes of all enemies by 3%. For every layer of [Phoenix Flame] of the enemy unit, this effect will be superimposed on it
150470 Break one battle to break the whole situation
During the battle, the damage caused by the unit to the enemy unit will increase according to the distance, up to 18%;
when the unit launches air support, it will launch an additional round of aerial barrage Lv.10 (the power of the barrage depends on the aviation attribute and skill level);
when other formations in the level sea area enter the battle, if the unit survives, it will launch a round of support
barrage Lv.10 15 seconds after the battle begins (the power of the barrage depends on the aviation attribute and skill level)
150480 Phoenix and Phoenix
During the battle, there is a 100% chance to trigger a special barrage [Phoenix Flame] every 12 seconds.
Lv.10 (barrage power depends on aviation attributes and skill level). When the battle starts, for each other Sakura camp
character in the formation, the special barrage [Phoenix Flame] trigger interval is reduced by one second. Enemy units hit
by the special barrage enter the [Phoenix Flame] state, and the ignition damage received is increased by 15%. This effect
can be stacked up to once every 5 seconds, and up to two layers; when in the same fleet with Akagi or Kaga, the first round of air support loading time of the carrier-based aircraft is shortened by 50%
yeeeee
Center says tap for activation
Oh, huh, she retains the enemy debuffing of her BC version
got it
Tho it seems to be a less potent debuff?
Used to be 9% iirc
lmao sakura CVs are back again
yeah 6% after 12-24s
1 stack
i don't think anyone runs 6 sakura in pvp though
Well not anymore at least
OG who was with Nagato Amagi backline?
well people started simping nahk and soyuz
hiryuu
unless the s1 counter is else where
now use their meta and UR amagi lol
Kearsarge laffey II and Eldridge all wave hello
There are AA and speed debuff too. And somehow Manjuu usually give AA debuff only a low amount
If go with IJN, each ship -1 cd, so i can say at least 1-2 stack in 10-20s
Speed debuff by 3% per stack, not quite an Ark Royal level slow but it's something I guess
Anyone here the can give me a CV comp+load to use against Nagato Meta?

FAQ
Best Stage to Farm?
D3 is best due to ship drop & event currency, If you can't do D3, then the order is D3 > D1 > C2 > B3 > highest you can do.
Oil-Cap is on D1-D3, and is 35/47/16 on D3, just like other events.
Special Event Equipment?
No. There isn't. The closest you get equipment skins.
Special Limited-Time Battle UI?
- You get it through AKASHI shop.
- THIS COSTS MONEY; NOT WORTH FOR F2P PLAYERS!
- You can access it once unlocked in the same menu as where you see chat frames.
IS THERE MAINT AT THE END OF THE EVENT?
NO MAINTENANCE ON OCT 2ND! Stages will go away immediately on daily reset, and frame + it's points + event shop + etc. will stay for an additional week.
Should I pull for these ships?
Reasons you should pull for the ships, in no particular order:
- Waifu
- Collection
- Better than majority of permanent options at their hull type (only for gold ships)
There is 1 more UR events scheduled for 2024, plus a Collaboration Event (see #game-news for more information), so spend cubes accordingly
more information coming soon tm
i think mobility means eva rate actually
ok it looks like its always 3% + 3% if special burn on anyone
opposite of what amagi does
what tech do the new ships give
Ayase and Suzu are torp iirc
yes
Wait so no slow or stop lmao
thats skill 1 stacks
only 1 stack max
how does amagi look rn
Converging torps miss again if you go full Sakura CV 
that doesn't make sense 
And you wouldn't
replaces
maybe haku
Unless the enemy was stationary
her skill 1 applies a fleetwide debuff guranteed, which can stack based on the number of skill 3 stacks
her skill 3 increases enemy burn damage taken by 15%, and allegedly has 2 stacks
i am asking if the skill 3 effect stacks with itself, so you would get +30% burn damage taken
Man we really need more fleet formations both in OpSi and outside, if we want to accomodate the shiny new URs now without benching the old ones
2 of them arent backline 
do u use more than 1 opsi fleet?
They never left
you have 4 and truth is youll use more than 1
I have 3 cross fleet with like no gears and 1 farming team...
Mob fleet, AP BB, ConvTorp CV and Rocket CV fleets
idk the code only checks once, dunno if theres some internal function that would allow it to repeat the check, the additional -3% debuff has +2 stacks and the base aura itself has another -3%
and those 3 without gears still kick the abyssal bosses ass
~~Nahk Soyuz Nano > Haku Shinano Implacable ~~
thats not what im talking about
im talking about SKILL 3 BURN DAMAGE TAKEN
Those 3 are the big fuck yous of CVs in pvp
So amagi would have to do a lot in order to prove herself
ye the burn only stacks once
the percent is 15% right, for the burn damage taken
there's also the PVP only dmg reduction thing but I rarely use it
So no event equipment this time?
ye 15
No event gear
kk thanks 
Is datamine up now
yes
Is amagi op 
im back up to 100% collection rate until event tomorrow
Ok, #al-general please
Almost certainly, yes
wao Watarase seems to be AA ship
110% AA efficiency = AA ship yes
How tho 
oh wait it should stack to 30%
110% is absolutely not an AA ship
i was vindicated
At that rate, even Sirius would be an AA ship
unsure how the proc condtions work tho
oof she's gonna be having hard time farming w13
max range for her buff should be 110 range
Almost all the Sakura ships have shit AA
It shouldn't be a surprise
so I look at her and it's over 300 and got excited
is that what .0024 is?
Amagi only have 8 planes? But she's a UR
Doesn't matter, her plane efficiencies are way higher than her UR counterparts
keep reading
amagi kinda looking busted as a mobber
Kinda expected, just lie the original amagi
for watarase or amagi cv
This kinda sounds like bait imo "If this ship is sortied with Akagi or Kaga, -50% first airstrike loading time", would it be worth instead of just using a good ship?
Watarase*
yes i typoed
Chat why does my mains deal not much of dmg against NagatoM 
It's 100% bait
Flavour text
Amagi T0 mid confirmed /j
amagi
Stat debuffs like AA stack additionally or multiplicatively?
well for a start you're guranteeing Vanguard desyncs from Alsace and NJ
Not synced
You're not getting vanguard's buffs on the other 2 BBs
BBs are also not as strong against heavy armour
vanny is too fast
Your timings are wack
No new gear on this event?
No new gear
They are synced tho vanny always fire first
They are not synced at all
that's not what syncs means

Vanny fires a full 3s ahead
synced means Alsace and NJ fire while Vanguard's debuff is still active for all 4 salvos
Does the UR Exchange points go away on a new banner?
For event yes
Perma UR pity a event UR pity are independent
Event UR pities do not carry over to other events
When this ship finishes loading her Main Guns: 50% (100%) chance to fire a special barrage (damage scales with skill level). Additionally, all enemies on screen take 3.5% (8%) increased damage from your BBs and BCs for 6s.
I'm wondering, I know someone with no URs besides a 0LB Alsace, would Amagi be better as first MLB? 
this kind of syncs if you're using soyuz alsace vanny
Yes, but once the event's over you'll go back to whatever you had before the event for the permanent pool
I think Alsace takes like 1 second to fire after vanny that is not much delay?
By this token
With your current set up
By the 2nd round of shells, Syojr other 2 BBs are not being buffed
It's not, it's literally written there, 3 seconds difference in rof
I rather doubt that by the time you get to the 4th salvo
No need, cheeky
I never get to 4th salvo 
3rd salvo then
By salvo 2, the 2nd and 3rd volleys won't even receive the debuff
Just give vanguard the same gun as the rest 
who has amagi barrage vid? it was shown in the livestream
Problem solved instantly
so at a 90 engagement range she has a 13.2% DRB buff

and give NJ a fire control radar as well
how do I limit break kasumi meta she's so diff than the others
Vanguard's already one of the fastest BBs, why make her even faster?
Is it better to use Torps on Nagato M or Bombs? (Or maybe Rockets? Not sure)
get dupes of her from the cruise pass
you need more of her crystals from cruise pass
min range starts at 35 and +0.24% per unit
Torps
She's heavy armour
Rockets suck
either you use 3x 457 or no 457, things will not sync well with 1 or 2 457
Bombs not meant for ST usually
why she diff than others tho
She's a meta ship
Because that's how META ships work 
go to research and perform somatic activation
what that mean
META ships have their own system
cuz meta faction are all like that
Which CVs comp do you use on her? Haku, Shinano, Mush?
Do i get another champy gun

You're supposed to have 3 champys before your first 457
yes
Don't mind the 457 
Interesting
Cheeky posting trophy, ban 
Yes, that seems to be the best till people can max amagi CV
alr thamks
Btw Kasumi Meta isn't really great outside of being an stat stick for torp
is amagis barrage flag locked cause it covers a wide area
Doesn't seem to be
kasumis kinda decent for a purple meta
okay
stat stick wha? 💀
just to confirm alt akagi forms count for amagi cv's reload reduction right
