[weak shell]

11k is one time source + first clear

rerun gonna be easier tho cause 1 clear 100% map (already cleared for people who were there)

[stark quiver]

Total oil I got

[weak shell]

more than enough, dw about it

[stark quiver]

I feel like I did some numbers wrong

[weak shell]

typical CL, maybe off-tank potential, nothing special

I have 6 HVAR and one of them not even +10 cause I don't need it

[silk helm]

nothing special as in tier N or nothing special as in tier 1

[stark quiver]

Hopefully I’ll have enough

[stark quiver]

Decent, but better options exist and she probably won’t be used

[weak shell]

solidly tier 2 closing in on tier 1 ig?

I'd put her on par with Noshiro if she has a better red skill ngl

[night crow]

Are smokescreen skills supposed to be invisible ? Cause I never know when they activate in the middle of battle

[atomic abyss]

no, they appear as a white, mostly see through smoke on screen

just over a small, irregular shape

[soft raft]

Yorktown II rerun
Which wont be for a while

[night crow]

Oh, thanks, I've just never been able to see it then

[light flax]

So i want to run amagi 2 and nano but since im recently new idk who else i would need to run in main

[keen sable]

someone mlb

[light flax]

Wouldnt i need a sakura empire to maximize amagi 2 for her skill

[weary gust]

Never build a fleet around faction buff skills

[eager mulch]

non mlb + amagi 2 skill < mlb ship

[light flax]

ohh okay

[soft raft]

well first things first, how close are both Amagi CV and Shinano to being MLB?

Also (Insert obligatory "Faction fleet sucks" statment here)

[light flax]

Rn im working on amagi 2 running for dupes but nano should be mlb by end of this week or next week

[weary gust]

That's a very bad plan.

[soft raft]

stop pulling for dupes at once jfc

[topaz smelt]

im pretty sure we told him that last time

[tame jungle]

Berke pt2

[light flax]

man but event pity doesnt cross over no?

[soft raft]

it dont

[light flax]

Im like 100 cubes away

[weary gust]

It's not worth going to pity if you've already got all the ships. And 100 cubes is a lot

[topaz smelt]

sounds like a waste of 100 cubes

[soft raft]

that's way too far for it to be worth

[stuck stirrup]

you could get the next UR with 100 cubes in all likelihood

[light flax]

Well i think its 100 idk my pitys at 149

[weary gust]

102, same differnce. Either way, never pull for dupes for mlb. Especially URs which have low drop rate. You will want those cubes for other events. Use bullins to mlb.

And don't go for shinano/nj/other perma pool URs, you'll get them naturally over time.

[light flax]

Ur bullins are hard to get

[topaz smelt]

if youre ever below 400 cubes, youre in the im fucked bracket

[weary gust]

That's why you don't waste them on perma-pool URs or spread them out, you max out one at a time.

[light flax]

Haha not like i wasted 500 cubes on a standard

[weary gust]

Rules of cubes:

1. Never build outside events except 1x daily light build for the mission.
2. Stop building once you have all the ships of an event.
3. Don't buy cubes with gems. You shouldn't need to buy them if you're active.

[ember totem]

[light flax]

I buy cubes

[topaz smelt]

thx for funding the game

[light flax]

Ongggg

See im helping out not like i spent 100 in less then 8 hours

But ill have nano mlb so it should be fine

[undone plover]

u should buy cubes in coin and merit shop
not with gems tho

[light flax]

Ive been buying the level packs

I think i bought all of em to level 80

Idk how much that is

[weary gust]

Commander level 70 pack is arguably okay, not needed, but gets you started on opsi and stuff faster and has some other decent stuff.

[tame jungle]

Bad resource management still applies even if you whale lol

[light flax]

Yeah i have no exp books anymore

But when i get sr crates i ask what to use em on

[weary gust]

SR Crates? You mean the gold gear boxes? Or something else?

[light flax]

Yeahh gold boxes

[weary gust]

You just open gold boxes. Only reason to save any is 10 ijn ones for Akashi quest.

[tame jungle]

No not those, the whale boxes

[weary gust]

Oh. No idea what those are then.

[light flax]

The other boxes were you can pick em

[tame jungle]

The ones with research gear

[keen sable]

you need to think like a whale

[weary gust]

I am less than a krill

[light flax]

Yeah that one

So can i run mlb hood nano and amagi 2?

[keen sable]

should be indy boss, hood mob

[weary gust]

You can. Hood doesn't really go with either of them. Pretty much anything works for campaign until w13.

[light flax]

Okay then that should be fine rn i wanna work on getting more gear and coins

Rn for my main im running indiana, enty, unicorn, laffey, helena, portland

[weary gust]

Just stick with that fleet. Especially if they're leveled/mlb and your URs aren't.

[light flax]

True so should i just commission amagi till shes level 100?

[weary gust]

No. Put her in the dorm. Don't bother with the 10hr comms, unless it's the one that gives cubes, in which case you do it and never again because you'll get a different one next time.

[keen sable]

a whale needs gear

[stuck stirrup]

why can't you just stick amagi in a farm/mob fleet if your other characters are leveled

[keen sable]

why would you one fleet when you have two fleets of mlb ships

[light flax]

Tbh its because i dont have a second fleet

Ive been using 1 fleet up till w10-2

Trying to 3 star everything which is pain

[stuck stirrup]

if you're getting enough stuff to make a second fleet, maybe you ought to start thinking about making a second fleet

[wispy pendant]

he's gaming, let him cook

[light flax]

Idk what makes a good fleet

[keen sable]

...you don't run non mlb ships. that's beneath a whale. use these ships when you achieve it.

while obviously swapping hood for indy

[stuck stirrup]

a mob fleet for w10-w12 is pretty much Unicorn + whatever doesn't just die outright

[light flax]

Which one is indy

[stuck stirrup]

if you're running Indiana + Enterprise + some other backliner that can deal damage, you shouldn't need healing for just one boss battle

[keen sable]

indiana. your only bb

[light flax]

time to remake fleets

[topaz smelt]

non mlb ships are horrendously trash

[keen sable]

they're bad and get capped which is an utter waste of oil

[haughty dust]

hi, I’m already on the second half of the Chaklov xp farm. Minus the gear piece. Is this a good formation layout for that step?

[light flax]

Mines all maxed mlb

Levels are questionable

[haughty dust]

I was going to switch in Colorado retrofit with one of them, but she’s currently doing a commission.

[topaz smelt]

They're also missing like 50-90% of their stats

[light flax]

Bruh

[haughty dust]

Should I switch any of those characters around in the main formation?

or once Colorado is done with her commission should I swap one of those characters out since Colorado retrofit is only at level 100?

[topaz smelt]

Looks fine if you're farming 12

[spring bolt]

if you are going after fastest grind, make sure the flagship gets mvp
otherwise you are totally fine

[haughty dust]

By the way, this is my entire main fleet of EU ships

[topaz smelt]

Prob swap Sara out once she's maxed

[haughty dust]

so which ship is that in this case and just posted my full EU main

[weary gust]

You've got vanguard formation backwards. Brest should be in front, even at sub dev 20.

[keen sable]

so why aren't there two more eu ships in boss fleet

[wispy pendant]

might as well work on kears levels too

[haughty dust]

so then left, middle, or right?

[weary gust]

Though level advantage will make sirius probably just as "tanky" in this case.

[weary gust]

Left is front aka "tank" position, middle is sandwich, right is back.

[topaz smelt]

No one should die in 12 in any case

[haughty dust]

well she has not even been starred up so I was not sure if I should, but I briefly considered it.

[wispy pendant]

w12 on safe is easy, if she survives, she makes levels.

[spring bolt]

normally you just use ships that needs to be level, and do a few test runs to see who gets the mvp, we are not able to tell by just looking at your dock

[haughty dust]

hmm ok well then do you have a full mod fleet formation in mind then?

[wispy pendant]

@haughty dust I would focus on units that are either good or good fleet tech

[weary gust]

Don't worry about mvp control for research cdc. It's not worth the effort or time, and research cdc is the least time consuming part of PR/DR ships.

[wispy pendant]

AA for BBs is lower priority imo

[haughty dust]

huh? wdym?

[wispy pendant]

rld is very high priority

[haughty dust]

rld?

[wispy pendant]

reload fleet tech:

[weary gust]

The ship that gets "MVP" in a battle earns 50% more exp, and they earn MVP by doing the most damage that fight. But it's not worth trying to make sure the ship you want most to get more exp gets MVP for completing the Combat Data Collection (CDC) quests for ship research, because that's a lot of fine tuning for something that won't really change how fast you complete the quest.

[haughty dust]

If it helps, this is some, but not all of the gear I currently have

[wispy pendant]

the fastest way to clear combat data collection is use 3 ships from the right factions and clear oil cap levels quickly

[haughty dust]

ok. well based on what I shared any advice?

[wispy pendant]

just use gear guides per slot per ship until you get comfortable with the usual suspects

[keen sable]

~~they don't have any eubb that give rld ~~

[haughty dust]

I do my best with gear guides and trying to understand them. Just wondering if you have any ideas on a suggested formation for this step? Volga is the only NP ship that is mlb of the main fleet ships

[wispy pendant]

i saw nevada

[keen sable]

pure accidental enhancer. dock pruning at its finest

[haughty dust]

Until I get more slots Nevada is just enchanment fodder. I need more slots before I really start using the common or white characterse

[wispy pendant]

Nevada is not an accident, has one of the hottest skins in the game that was given for free, I had fun leveling her up for rld tech

[wispy pendant]

nevada is more important than north carolina or arizona

[haughty dust]

What about something like the following?

[wispy pendant]

bro, it works

[eager mulch]

where are her stars

[wispy pendant]

he doesn't have them yet

[keen sable]

i see no reason to use kearsarge

[topaz smelt]

neither do i

raising a ship to use in 3 months is kinda pointless

[wispy pendant]

🤦‍♂️

he's just combat data collecting. Any thing works.

[topaz smelt]

id much rather raise the indep in there

[wispy pendant]

That said, why not just finish Essex out for her fleet tech, she's already lvl 118. @haughty dust

independence is a strong choice

and ticon for that matter

don't think about it too much

[forest palm]

[crisp estuary]

[haughty dust]

by the way, were you trying to say that Brest should be in the middle?

[eager mulch]

im saying you shouldnt level a non dev30 brest

[forest palm]

I see no issue with leveling sub 30, using said ship for practical content on the other hand is a different matter

[weary gust]

Tank on left (Brest in this case), squishy low hp unit in middle (sirius would be this at equal levels to the enemy), offtank on right.

[versed swift]

Is this bad?

[eager mulch]

not yet

[forest palm]

not really

[stuck stirrup]

if you want the ship to get exp in the long run, it is a less than ideal condition

[versed swift]

So i can keep going with the missions?

[forest palm]

[versed swift]

Oh ok thanks ❤️

[forest palm]

the game stops you either way

[misty tree]

Just have more ships, EZ

[untold fjord]

Would the barrels make VIT-2 (and Ryusei) more reliable since the planes travel faster or is the speed negligible

[forest palm]

plane speed is negligible on TBs, only time plane speed matters is in PvP, and Fighters, and for fighters you want them to have a slow flight speed

[untold fjord]

Isn't the VIT-2's main issue that it's slightly slower making it so the torps take longer to come out?

[forest palm]

not really an issue

[undone plover]

it is mainly an issue if u use them on your third CV making it a possible miss
the vit-2 on implacable for example is fine afaik

[forest palm]

how long a plane takes to launch only factors into how you sync with other CVs

[haughty dust]

Well I would work on PR/DR 5, but struggling to get decent luck on Haku and Agir face cards in Research Academy. Haku is FS III and Agir is almost dev level 28. Every other PR/DR 4 characters is completely finished.

I have currently three Haku face cards researching atm. One has about 1 hr and 43 minutes left. The second is 8 hours long, and the third will take 2 hrs and 30 minutes

[undone plover]

if u have other vanguards to raise that will be useful to you for any content for example opsi or later worlds prioritize them over your non dev30 PR5
but if u have no one else to raise using brest and harbin is fine

[haughty dust]

give me a moment

[untold fjord]

That's what I was thinking cause I'm running a Musashi CV fleet, and I've noticed that Haku's airstrike occasionally misses by a hair

[haughty dust]

not sure how well you’ll be able to see all of that due to the annoying little bar on iPhone.

[undone plover]

u mean u use mog for the slow? who is stopping the enemy for u?

[undone plover]

seems fine tbh
did u have a question about this?

[forest palm]

that's what I'm wondering

[haughty dust]

Well you mentioned this even though i am not sure if you were referring to me or not so I figured I would show you my current progress if you had different advice.

[untold fjord]

Yea, I tried both Agir and Mog, probably just gonna switch to Soyuz

[undone plover]

oh i see
no i just meant at the moment u are using harbin and brest

both are fine to raise
who u should raise depends on what u are trying to achieve next but overall those 2 options are fine

[undone plover]

fair enough
ik the mog comp is rly tight so idk if u could make it work but i doubt vit-2 + fuel is the tactic to go for
u could just use another TB if the vit-2 whiffs

[haughty dust]

ok sounds good. yeah outside of unlocking right now trying to get Haku and Agir finished, but getting bad rng to get a full set of face cards of each per day. Then just coining Mainz. I think after I can get Haku and Agir finished I will move on to PR 5, unless you have different advice.

[undone plover]

sounds good
generally u want to get 2 tenrai before u move on from pr4 (1 from protoshop and 1 from research)
based on your research progress I feel like u should have that much already

[twin spoke]

There's an OpSi mission about "fighting a mock battle with an allied fleet" what do they mean by that?

[novel solstice]

Go to the port that has a green icon over it, fight the fleet there. It will be wimpy.

[undone plover]

click the view button
it will take u to the map
enter and auto it

[twin spoke]

Huh

[novel solstice]

All daily missions are doable by "go to map with green icon, hit auto", though sometimes the green icons will be invisible due to other icons.

[undone plover]

on the mission hub click the view button next to the mission and it will take u to the map

[novel solstice]

I guess not all dailies, some you do by going to info and hitting the exchange stuff for better stuff button.

[twin spoke]

Oh damn that's what the Axis ports are for

Aight thankies

[forest palm]

not really...

it's just a mission that occurs at any port

[haughty dust]

The UR versions?

[haughty dust]

Also, let me check and see

[maiden bloom]

I already have T2 twin 127mm cannon and what to do now?

[soft raft]

Have you uh

Equipped it to a ship yet?

[maiden bloom]

Already did

[eager mulch]

picture

[haughty dust]

I am getting close to being able to craft two of them but not yet since I used the shop to craft one Wyvern and I think maybe some other things.

33 of 50 to a second one.

[maiden bloom]

I equipped it to a ship and the mission didn't count

[eager mulch]

picture?

[maiden bloom]

picture of what?

[eager mulch]

show a picture of the gun equipped

because i dont believe you

[haughty dust]

@undone plover to answer your question here.

[maiden bloom]

@eager mulch There

[stuck stirrup]

T2

[eager mulch]

need the purple version

[undone plover]

can u buy any prints at the prototype shop?

[maiden bloom]

Oh

[haughty dust]

I was only able to buy two to put me at 33 of 50. I did not use that store properly at first due to some bad advice I was given and also not knowing what to do sadly.

[undone plover]

but can u buy more later?
it is fine if u dont have protocore right now

[dawn quarry]

Finally 150 pull got all of the character now. Should I continue pull? Or ? Save

[undone plover]

screenshot it it will be easier
the shop tenrai I mean

[stuck stirrup]

save unless you really really want one of the other banner ships

[undone plover]

stop pulling
do daily 1 light from now on
also no need to post the video

[hollow gust]

Isn't that still trophy lmao

[dawn quarry]

alrighty btw the ur save thingy does it save pity?? Or no..

[forest palm]

it's something to be posted in #trophy-room

[left cedar]

but the flex ...

[undone plover]

no pity does not carry over

[stuck stirrup]

the banner pity does not transfer to the next UR banner, no

[dawn quarry]

Q_Q

Well that sucks

[hollow gust]

Everyone has a Amagi tho , but does everyone have a 125 200 Amagi

[eager mulch]

i have a life

[haughty dust]

I try to save it up as much as possible. Need to get more protocore or bps for characters I have maxed to make it go faster if I am not mistaken

[cobalt rapids]

#gameplay-help message

[hollow gust]

[haughty dust]

wdym?

[left cedar]

AL its quite Friendly, for who knows how to manage their resources its quite alot, so in some time (around 2y~3y u will be with considerable amount of resources

and them imagine a veteran like some of us here with pittys going on ... it will extreme easy

[undone plover]

screenshot this page if u can

[haughty dust]

ok

give me a few in the middle of a battle

[haughty dust]

Doing a three sorties for second xp grind xp first

[undone plover]

just ping me if I dont respond it is all good

[haughty dust]

ok currently on sortie #2 of 3

[undone plover]

no need to post real time updates

[lyric flume]

who can i use instead of enterprise on the guide?

im using ranger right now

[stuck stirrup]

rnger is OP anyway

what ships do you have already

[haughty dust]

@undone plover

[undone plover]

ok nice u can buy 11 more
so yeah the previous plan is fine
once u max agir and haku u can move on to pr5

[crimson rock]

Is amagi worth or should i save for a waifu pull i plan for?

[haughty dust]

ok. What does it track how many bps you have bought over time in the store regardless of refreshes of the store?

[eager mulch]

you can only buy 50 of each rainbow gear bp, they do not refresh

[haughty dust]

I see. How do you get them after they run out? Research Academy RNG?

[light flax]

What are prototype blue prints weapon for?

[eager mulch]

research, gearlab eventually

[haughty dust]

How do you get them in gear lab? I do not see them there atm

[eager mulch]

they have to be added

[undone plover]

they get added over time
so far twin 457 and drake gun have been added

[eager mulch]

we only have the pr2 and 3 rainbow weapons so far

[haughty dust]

Are you saying they have not been added yet in game or do you have to get to a certain point in game for them to unlock?

sorry posted that before I went back up in chat and read a bit closer

[eager mulch]

they are available first in research, then they are added to protocore shop, then they get added to gear lab

[haughty dust]

I see. So they just have not been added to gear lab yet in game. Is that correct?

[undone plover]

they get added by the devs over time when they feel like it
pr3 got added to gearlab january this year
so we expect pr4 to be added to gear lab january next year

[haughty dust]

I see

[eager mulch]

cant wait to craft 0 tenrai

[light flax]

So should i buy the blueprints?

[lone knoll]

any tips on clearing this mission? it didnt even move 1% in 1 run

[stark quiver]

If you care about good ships then yea

[eager mulch]

use 3 iron blood main fleet ships somewhere like 12-1

[haughty dust]

I feel like after I finish PR4. I should probably finish getting some characters to level 120 or 125 and then hard core focus on PR5. Would that be a good idea?

[lone knoll]

I only have 2, dont i need unicorn?

[bleak mica]

2 are enough

[eager mulch]

dont need unicorn, id rather have a 3rd

[rain vine]

if you have 12-1 on safe, you can get away with quite a lot

[crimson rock]

So they're good?

[stark quiver]

Amagi cv ia really good

[lone knoll]

okay ill try w/o unicorn, these are my only main fleet iron blood ships

[crimson rock]

Moreso than shinano?

[stark quiver]

Potentially

[rain vine]

might want to bump up their levels to at least 90, if not 100

[haughty dust]

Why do you got three fleets?

[lone knoll]

Ignore that was just tracking who i needed to mlb for fleet tech

[haughty dust]

gotcha

[stark quiver]

Yes

[left cedar]

1% of 2,4m its 24k ...
that its quite alot for 1 run

[lone knoll]

im so jucked it will take like 3 months

[undone plover]

those 2 things are not related tbh
u should raise the ships u are using to level 120

if u need to uncap a ship to 125 for very hard content like chapters 14-15 and hard arbiter then u can do that
not everyone should be raised to 125 though only do it for the best ships

[stark quiver]

More like a few days of grinding

[lone knoll]

on 12-1?

[stark quiver]

Yea

[lone knoll]

im doing event tho, not very optimal xp gain here : (

[left cedar]

if u are a veteran with huge stockpile of oil ... them its possible with 6 days

[stark quiver]

Well event more important, and it’s fine? Since you’ll get her in due time

[lone knoll]

my acc is 1 and half month old

[left cedar]

well the grind can be done in 1-2 days

[lone knoll]

yeah ill get her eventually

she was my goal from the start

[left cedar]

its something like 55k~ of oil per DR iirc

[haughty dust]

Are Le Triomphant or Le Malin worth getting at some point in the future?

[light flax]

Which would be good for nano?

[left cedar]

none

[light flax]

..

[stark quiver]

Collection and tech
Both are dd fp +1

[light flax]

wish i had junkers

[left cedar]

Ryuusei its "equal"
if no Ryuuseis then Tenzan it is

of course for bosses, if u are grinding or using her for mob, them barracudas or others similar it is

[haughty dust]

FP +1? I just asked because I see them available in the medal store but have not unlocked either yet and probably not going to untill I can get more dock slots

[light flax]

Okay i see

[stark quiver]

No need to get them now
+1 destroyer firepower stat

[left cedar]

something says that he dosnt understood the concept of Tech stats

[light flax]

What can i use for aircrafts and dive bombers for nano

[stark quiver]

Context dependent

[eager mulch]

is nano mlb

[light flax]

Not yet

[eager mulch]

useless garbage

[light flax]

bruh

[stark quiver]

[left cedar]

Fighters u gona use if needed, mostly of time isnt ...
generally it be some rotation between Tenrais, Junkers/Ryuuseis/Vit2/Saiun

[light flax]

She’ll be mlb soon

[light flax]

Okay i see im trying to get to w12 content and farm around there

[stuck stirrup]

where is that spreadsheet of how generally tanky various ships are

[stark quiver]

Mebot moment?

[fluid brook]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HF6_hLEB8m_v0stp4DLGnIoDjgojvo7fjYz-cysjTMc/edit?gid=1231361331#gid=1231361331 This is Mebot eHp charts

[stuck stirrup]

ah, thanks

[keen sable]

because you're done farming event right?

[little tree]

Ex help

[light trail]

how many days minimum does amagi need to be skilled up to 10 for everything

[undone plover]

per skill

[hollow gust]

78*3/24

Although for Amagi you will see a majority of her damage at 10/10/

[light trail]

so minimum a week for 10/10/x assuming someone uses rainbow books and has perfect timing

[keen owl]

Which Mainfleet comp does Kearsarge should be with?

[eager mulch]

depends on content

[keen owl]

For Opsi Mobbing

[eager mulch]

it’s opsi mobbing, it’ll work

[keen owl]

Can Guam and Kron Tank?

[tame jungle]

for opsi mobs? sure

[keen owl]

No for Opsi Bosses

Yeah i think they can too. Thanks

Is Eldridge Kai Main or offtank?

[hollow gust]

It's such a waste to make keary mob

[eager mulch]

how come

its opsi

[crimson glacier]

fdg is just better at everything mobbing related

[eager mulch]

he can do whatever he wants

[keen owl]

My FDG is on Ironblood fleet

Whos Better At Flagship Position Bisko or Zwei?

[crimson glacier]

i dont think it matters if fdg has fate

[eager mulch]

fdg if shes not fs5, if fdg is fs5 then it doesnt matter

[hollow gust]

You toss the ships you done use in mob , keary and Yorktown is one of the best comps for light and med

[eager mulch]

his fleets are fine as is, why does he have to change them

[crimson glacier]

why are you so aganst it

[hollow gust]

Im not making him change the fleet ? It was just a comment on keary being wasted in mob

[eager mulch]

maybe because its how he wants to play the game

[crimson glacier]

acting real weird

[normal frost]

How long does it take for events/limited contstruction to rerun

[crimson glacier]

2+ years

[hollow gust]

Give or take 2 years for UR lol

[keen owl]

Tis good enough?

[hollow gust]

If it kills , it kills

[crimson glacier]

i mean normal bisko is like really bad but maybe it wont matter

[keen sable]

better than that azuma tanks

[keen owl]

Is azuma tank worse than hindy tanks?

[crimson glacier]

hindy sucks at tanking

[hollow gust]

Hindenburg can't tank ,her main thing is damage

[keen owl]

Is mogador fragile or she a bit ok on end game

[hollow gust]

Compared to CBs and Laffey shes fragile

[keen owl]

Cause if i use her on EX and do a suicidal jump she might die quick

[spring bolt]

just to stir the shit: i recommend 3 cv mobbing, 2 preload and 1 half preload, typically uni+aquila+muse akagi/impero/yumi, and strong vanguards like guam+harbin+hind

[hollow gust]

You can def make those fleets fleets better , but turtle insist on letting you play as you wish

[hollow gust]

I need my cross fleets , stuff mob fleet with them

[keen owl]

The opsi is not that tough anyways

[spring topaz]

where do these pasrts come from?

[hollow gust]

It's not, your fleets can clear basically anything

[keen sable]

OPS

[soft raft]

Operation Siren
Also dont craft the Mk7 from the Mk6 path

[spring bolt]

inreality, you only need this mob fleet + a cv fleet, the rest 2 fleet are both cross fleet

[spring topaz]

good call

[hollow gust]

[keen owl]

They eat less mats on other gear?

[spring topaz]

all the parts regardless of rarity only form from operation Siren?

[hollow gust]

Slightly less from the other path

[soft raft]

Operation Siren is the defacto source of gear lab materials

[keen owl]

That 64 circuit is kinda scary

[hollow gust]

Well play opsi enough , it's cheap

Most people have lot more then I do

[keen owl]

Thats a lot

[wispy pendant]

my 1900 military grade electronics don't know what to do with themselves

[hollow gust]

Craft more flajacks

[topaz smelt]

i have a bit

[forest palm]

not really that much

[keen owl]

I only have 496. Im a lazy casual AL player, more interested on cosmetics

[hollow gust]

Oh hey riceist, I managed to make your Amagi fleet work

[spring bolt]

let's just wait and see that how many electronics would a tenrai eat
but usually rainbow prints will run out first anyway

[topaz smelt]

was towel crucial?

[hollow gust]

Yeah

[topaz smelt]

sounds weird but if it works

[hollow gust]

I maxed it out , which helped a lot

A few more skill levels on Amagi and it'll be quite consistent

[topaz smelt]

ive been playing with potter a bit lately, feels a little lacking on damage but i assume itll be better when amagi is fixed

you want unzen mid slot btw, pushes more dmg

[keen owl]

Does the Faction buff gives lot of stats

[keen sable]

what faction buff?

[hollow gust]

Amagi? It is a pretty substantial buff to torp damage

Still not worth running a full sakura though

[keen owl]

When u level 120 or Max Lv or obtain ship

[hollow gust]

Oh tech, it is very significant

[keen sable]

all possible buffs does

[keen owl]

They gib extra stats to faction or is it all shipsz?

[hollow gust]

All

[keen owl]

Oh its all

The faction points is for PR reqs

[sage nebula]

I was just watching my fleet on auto in a stronghold - and my fleet was able to walk out of the smoke cloud instead of the auto-search stopping. was this a recent QOL change?

[keen owl]

They can get out of it now. Wow AI advancement is reals

[keen sable]

those would probably be called tech points

[keen owl]

Futurw of AI getting brighter

[sage nebula]

That's nice. Though tbh, they should just remove clouds altogether, idk what they add to the gameplay

[keen owl]

Yeah those

[eternal moth]

I tried out the Nagato comp I was given earlier (Nano/Haku/Alsace/Ply/Kaza/Mog), but it still isn't able to kill, even with everything at +13. Anything better?

[topaz smelt]

unzen

[hollow gust]

[eternal moth]

That's what I'm using, except it's PR7 TB and Ryusei on Nano, and double Ryu on Haku

Oh wait, no ply there?

[topaz smelt]

unzen op

[hollow gust]

Unzen does a lot of damage

[hollow gust]

My Unoathed one was doing 230k so yeah

[topaz smelt]

unironically i think lance on unzen might be better

[hollow gust]

What you cooking this time

[topaz smelt]

nah its just the crit rate from hit might outweight the trp stat

[eternal moth]

What is this madness, and why did that do so much more damage...

[topaz smelt]

unzen op

[wispy pendant]

i have 5, how many should i have? 8 total?

[hollow gust]

Honestly I feel like she consistently does more damage then hinden

[topaz smelt]

she def does like 100k+ more usually

[hollow gust]

You can use up to like 12 for w15

[topaz smelt]

esp with this mog setup

[wispy pendant]

12, wew, okay, i'll get to work

[topaz smelt]

just 1:1 unzen prob does a 30-50k more on average

[hollow gust]

6 for support fleet and 6 more scattered around

[forest palm]

time to farm CA TRP Tech

[topaz smelt]

you def dont need more than like 5

[hollow gust]

CN calcs suck balls

[topaz smelt]

this has been known for 4 years

[hollow gust]

Even with my max +13 guns , I haven't seen hinden do more

What a waste of plates

[wispy pendant]

hinden was a trap

[topaz smelt]

ive seen bz+hindy match a low roll unzen that missed 2 waves

[wispy pendant]

maybe we'll get another kms ship that want's faction fleet and makes hinden good again

[topaz smelt]

hindy needs a fs5 to be good

[normal frost]

What do special furnitures do?

[spring topaz]

is there a certain fleet I need for to push OPSI

[hollow gust]

Good ships push opsi

[spring topaz]

just the same ships I would use to farm D3

[keen sable]

same fleets you use to push campaign

maybe you can stack the mob more

[stuck stirrup]

If you have excess ships, do a general mobbing fleet, CV boss fleet and BB boss fleet with no healers in the bosses

[spring topaz]

I have 2 fleets, but not enough gear to do more than that really it seems like

[keen sable]

gear is irrelevant as long as you don't mind swapping

[shell willow]

gives good comfort but gem only purchase

[light flax]

Almost just tryna get the ur bullin

[keen sable]

there's still more after that

[inland shoal]

New ones also sometimes have a special animation with a specific character or skin

[hollow gust]

Soyuz skin and her helicopter

[bold salmon]

Moga, vanguard or amagi2 for mlb?

[hollow gust]

Depends

[light flax]

Ehh im not interested in the other stuff probably grind till i get the gold plates but that be it

[bold salmon]

For opsi most likely

[hollow gust]

Well what other ships you have

[inland shoal]

Depends on the ships you already have

[light flax]

I still got 49 and if i need more ill just buy from packs that come out

[inland shoal]

Well a single UR gear needs 360

[bold salmon]

Only missing musashi of the ur

[inland shoal]

And the others are all MLB?

[bold salmon]

Yes

[inland shoal]

What about Haku?

[bold salmon]

Fs5

Well Napoli and the cat only dev 25

[inland shoal]

Then imho Vanny > Amagi > Moga

[spring topaz]

what else am I supposed to do?

[bold salmon]

Ok thanks

[inland shoal]

Is anything telling you that you still have to do something there?

[light flax]

What is this btw

[inland shoal]

A mission

It's a furniture

[light flax]

Oh just furniture

[spring topaz]

I don't see anything

Gain control of the Bermuda Zone?

[keen sable]

tap scan to see any hidden objects

[brisk dragon]

is this 1 time clear 100% thing for event stages an exception for this event or this is how it's gonna be from now on?

[rapid grail]

if there is nothing else to do (aside from checking the hidden nodes), you can tap outside of the zone area to go to the OpSi map

[brisk dragon]

oh there was no talk about it ?

[rapid grail]

first time in history of AL, prob going to be the way event stages work soon™️. But we'll see soon if that is going to be true for new events and if that gets added to future reruns

[inland shoal]

The patch notes said from now on iirc

[brisk dragon]

cool. it was really pain to "farm" the 100% with how little time i have for AL recently

[brisk dragon]

is that so? guess i'll remove the EN player inside of me and go read the patch notes

[eager mulch]

or have other people read it then have them tell you what’s in it

[brisk dragon]

kekw. i always asj here or in general first. and often get told go read patch notes. so i ask in different server where i know ppl do read and get the answer from there

[eager mulch]

[brisk dragon]

hm. they changed how they post patch notes? it's no longer 3-4 text screenshots ?

[spring topaz]

Tap What? I'm doing the scan thing and nothing is showing

[keen sable]

it's safe to leave. if you didn't actually clear it then it will still be there

[spring topaz]

ok

[latent dagger]

So is it normal to get like 9k coin in mail but when u claim it doesn't get added to my total?

[forest palm]

there's a bank in the mail system if you check the other tabs

[latent dagger]

OMG I NEVER SAW THT TY

[forest palm]

👍

[inland juniper]

Are IJN subs worth using alongside Amagi CV or is it still generally better to run wolfpack?

[forest palm]

continue to use USS, or KMS subs

[inland juniper]

[elfin hollow]

How good is Amagi

[eager mulch]

ok but better options exist

[elfin hollow]

Like who?

[eager mulch]

fdg

[soft raft]

Which Amagi

[eager mulch]

any rainbow bb not named warspite really

[elfin hollow]

I have several URs so I'm working them up.

[eager mulch]

if its amagi-chan then theres no competition

[rapid grail]

amagi bc is alright for progression
amagi cv, best paired with IJN CV/s, torpers, and Kazagumo

[elfin hollow]

Hm.

[sharp socket]

does cvmagi change the hakunano comp

[elfin hollow]

Amagi cv is what I'm talking about

[eager mulch]

lets just say, its the amaginano comp now

[little tree]

haku looks cooler still

[eager mulch]

smh amagi-chan hater

[elfin hollow]

I'm wondering if I should grind to grab another one for ranking Amagi Cv up or if it's worth just waiting for the specialized Bulin

[spring topaz]

what percent off% do you end at after 10x DR print purchases with coin?

[soft raft]

Don't pull for dupes

[elfin hollow]

Okay, that's all I needed to know.

[soft raft]

Idk what the specific percentage was, but it's not really worth doing 15 BPs instead of 10 for the time save

[light flax]

Can i run bfg on amagi 2

[soft raft]

Depends on the content
And fleet composition

[light flax]

What are bfg good for?

[soft raft]

If you mean the PR4 fighter, Anti-light/anti-medium when AA IS NOT a concern

IE Operation Siren 99% of the time

[light flax]

Ohh i see can i use it for mob clear or is for bosses

[soft raft]

Mainly bosses

[light flax]

Okay okay im tryna use nano and amagi for mob

But ill level it up

[queen jackal]

which opsi fights are the ones that give xp i see that some dont

[inland juniper]

Im kinda dumb when it comes to PvP. I looked at the spreadsheet but I'm still a bit confused about gears. Assuming I have access to every gear in the game, what should I change? (I'll level everything up after)

[eager mulch]

ask #pvp

[stuck stirrup]

The "permanent" mobs that are there when standard stages begin give exp, so not scripted mobs in the main campaign and not units that are summoned via abnormal means (like the siren summoning beacon reinforcements)

[novel solstice]

You can also tell by the color. Red highlights - gives XP. Blue highlights - no xp.

[civic crag]

So is 10 a day the optimal

[mint flint]

in terms of coins, technically buying 2 a day would be optimal since the first two are free, but in practical terms yes

for pr ships

[civic crag]

Oh

[civic crag]

What about DR

[mint flint]

basically the same but it costs more and takes more time

[errant vector]

any way to farm cognitive awakening chips?
other than the small amounts from commissions and research academy

[mint flint]

w12+
daily missions

[stoic tulip]

Anyone have thoughts on a substitute until an implacable rerun?

[mint flint]

core data shop as well

[soft raft]

AvP
The German PR4 CV

[stoic tulip]

Would ark royal retrofit be the closest? Or better alternatives? Or just use Shimano and Hakuryuu

[stoic tulip]

AvP, eh? Maybe it's best to finally fate sim 5 her then

[hollow gust]

avp is best replacement, ark royal slow is meh asf

[stoic tulip]

I'm thinking Amagi CV, Shinano and then don't have a 3rd carrier

[soft raft]

I mean you should
esp since it bumps her proc chance to 100%

[hollow gust]

unless u plan to use nahkimov with a soviet slow

[stoic tulip]

Unless maybe it's better to use Nagato as the flagship

[soft raft]

[hollow gust]

[stoic tulip]

I just finished pr6, and am still researching pr5 prints

[soft raft]

Just do AvP
Amagi CV and Shinano are strong enough to not give a shit about Nagato

[sharp socket]

is vanny’s personal damage really low compared to other UR BBs

[hollow gust]

Nagato doesnt matter when everything whiffs

[soft raft]

It's more closer to SRs but her utility is her main selling point, not her amage

[sharp socket]

also does vanny, soyuz and alsace debuff all stack

[stoic tulip]

On that note, better to use blueprints from old pr seasons or just turn them to protocores?

[sharp socket]

i protocore series 4 and below prints because coin is cheaper than protocore to get, unless its DR4 in which case i save

[stoic tulip]

Because the blueprint catch-up mechanic just uses some gold but there's no way to convert to protocores

[sharp socket]

also while im here is this a good budget w15 support and sub fleets

ignore DD guns on subs im going to budget them more probably

[hollow gust]

Where is your bidder

[sharp socket]

i dont know how to gear subs

but i have the ability to craft 4 bidders

[hollow gust]

Just bidder two of them

[sharp socket]

any 2?

[hollow gust]

i honestly forgot which was the better two but it shouldnt be that noticable

[light trail]

alright just finished fs5 haku, is she (potentially) obsolete now with amagi cv (real question)

[eager mulch]

g7es and twin 128s, kms gear for kms subs huh

[hollow gust]

even if amagi powercreeps haku, that doesnt make her obsolete...

[true kraken]

Is this work with meta boss fleet?

[sharp socket]

also here are my surface fleets, with help from some people, will my boss live

[soft raft]

only one way to find out

[slow fox]

[hollow gust]

lmao BB comps

[true kraken]

I guess that's a no?

[hollow gust]

it should twoshot but i kinda doubt its a 75 pointer consistently, helena might pull a fast one and not proc

[stark quiver]

whats this for

[sharp socket]

since i dont have guam/laff2 ill have to make up for it with good gear for w15 i feel, also it feels weird to not use ply since she gets alot of love for being top CL

[sharp socket]

w15

[civic crag]

Does gear enhancement level for non fighters matter for w15 support

[stark quiver]

um pretty sure it wont make it past 15-3

[left cedar]

idk about Agir as Mobber ... she is Heavy and TRPs on W15 hurst ASF

[sharp socket]

i was recommended brest for that slot actually

[stark quiver]

agir is gonna die in mob

[civic crag]

Wait should Laffii be offtank or main tank in w15

[little tree]

Is agir okay for boss in W15?

[left cedar]

Medium armor it will suffer less since TRPs on them have a lil less dmg ...

[stark quiver]

works both ways

[civic crag]

Who Else should be tank slot in w15 mob

[finite crag]

Depends on who you have

[left cedar]

Nap, Ancho, Laf2, Guam ...

[civic crag]

Anchorage it is

[sharp socket]

well i cant have 2 anchorages

[left cedar]

try with Agir Boss and Ancho mob

[hollow gust]

Brest Anchor Guam Laffii2

[civic crag]

Don’t you have Laffii

[left cedar]

u just add the french
cuz i intentionally dint mention

[sharp socket]

i joined 1 month after laff2 event

[hollow gust]

Better then anything ironblood has

[civic crag]

And ur alr at w15? That’s fast

[left cedar]

its french so i trully

[sharp socket]

yesnt, what i have here is plan and i dont actually have all the stuff here yet

[hollow gust]

Wait wait wait , one of the better comp has no Ironblood , truly a minor faction moment

[sharp socket]

but its realistic for me to get them in like 2 months prob

not shimanto fs5 though, just d30

but the gear i have almost all i listed there

[sweet delta]

Why not just Eldridge tank or at least off tank, she's barely going to proc rainbow in middle

[civic crag]

Is bofors staag best aa gun for main fleet

[sweet delta]

Usually

[spring topaz]

I don't know what fleet I should be working/aspiring towards =(

[civic crag]

Eldridge retro isn’t in ectl, is there a review of Eldridge retro anywhere

[keen sable]

killing everything you've encountered would be a start

[stark quiver]

yea shes good
she kills jda

[spring topaz]

I do

I mean what ships I should be investing in/fleets I should be trying to make

[sharp socket]

if you dont know what to do gameplay wise, try beating meta fights in 2shot, opsi stuff, or w13+

[spring topaz]

I'm just farming the event stage

not sure if I'm on pace to buy out the shop or not, kinda casual

[sharp socket]

you need a goal before we can give advice so just pick something and we can guide you

[keen sable]

so farm SP

[spring topaz]

I'm just wanting to pick ships to throw into my vanguard to level up while I grind D3 I guess

[light trail]

so that's a "no, dw bout it"

any reason to ever max these two out?

[sharp socket]

collection/tech only iirc

[dusk maple]

fleet tech

[light trail]

or should i just change my catchup to someone i already have maxed for protocores

[spring topaz]

12 ships worth investing in to unlock SP mode in the event with avg level 110

[stark quiver]

i mean which do you have left

[soft raft]

Odin is +1 BB HIT Tech
Champagne is +2 BB HIT Tech

[soft raft]

may as well tbh
esp when PR1-4 save for the PR4 DRs is coinable

[eager mulch]

holy tech

[plain saffron]

Doing that for pr1-3 should already be enough

[light trail]

fully done with pr4 maxing, pr5 and pr1 catchups are complete, i have cheshire fs5 as well as mainz fs5, fdg fs5 as well as kitakaze

[sharp socket]

create thread with your dock

[plain saffron]

Ouh wait odin is pr3 or 4

[light trail]

3

[sharp socket]

3

[plain saffron]

Hmm they're coinable anyway, do you need more protocore

[light trail]

i could use more yeah

[plain saffron]

Protocore + daily coins then

[light trail]

still dont have the rainbow cl gun or the other two which i think are lower priority iirc

[eager mulch]

does alsace have good aa?

[sharp socket]

you flipped the priority, its tenrai > q152 (ply gun) > twin457 (georgia gun) > tri234 (drake gun)

[spring topaz]

Duo's 3 weeks later dock update

[light trail]

i figured buying out the tenrais first was a given bc i just finished pr4 (mostly, just need 2 more tenrais then i'll buy the rest)

[frank pulsar]

meh aa

[eager mulch]

meh aa?

[civic crag]

Should I farm 12-4 or 13-4

[viscid swift]

unless you want Bunker Hill, 12-4

[eager mulch]

i want more amagi-chans

where do i go for that

[viscid swift]

hmm

[civic crag]

So why clear 13-4

[eager mulch]

collection

[viscid swift]

the Japanese BB Tech tree

[stark quiver]

straight to the perma banner

[eager mulch]

lost me at BB

[stark quiver]

bb.....

[keen comet]

A question here:

If I put my Interprid in
A Fleet together with the Enterprise, would it make a good combination in Combat?

[cursive lark]

I don't think they even have any synergy

So not a good combination

Also not reccomended

[stark quiver]

itll work, but there isnt any sort of buff they gain
and intrepid isnt really good

[primal silo]

Can someone explain to me about the paid UI?
I don't understand at all

[sharp socket]

spend money for new UI, or spend more money for new UI and good value gems

[lone knoll]

assuming Ulrich will be next perma Ur, am i messing up my acc by going for her over shinano or new jersey?

[primal silo]

Has someone bought it?
What does it look like?

[sharp socket]

you can preview it in the shop

[primal silo]

Okay, thanks

[lone knoll]

will we even get a new UR in the permanent pool this year?

[primal silo]

I see.
Not for me, pretty sure.

[vale halo]

is mogador good in nagato meta?

[hollow gust]

well she is used in the current strat

[vale halo]

w8 i completely forgot she stops boss movement in stabs right? @hollow gust

[rain bobcat]

yes thats her use

[vale halo]

so implacable is not recommended atm right? if have mogador build

[gaunt dagger]

Is shinano worth maxing if I’m using amagi(cv)?

[hollow gust]

she is worth maxing with or without Amagi

[gaunt dagger]

But she ain’t even ex according to tier list

[stark quiver]

and the tier list doesnt matter

[eager mulch]

what tier list

[stark quiver]

ectl most likely

[eager mulch]

wait, this means that the ectl -worth command is actually applicable

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/759614141425385492/1047527025717555220/image.png?ex=66eaea91&is=66e99911&hm=29329512b7ba4b09eaf9e448f4d404fc4437db8bf4defeadade8494894d6078a&

[gaunt dagger]

I mean I can validly assume a ship from tier 4 is worse than t1 right

[stark quiver]

that would apply to lower tiers, but not higher tiers where its a lot of URs and other great ships
so what you will do is group tEX and t0 together

[eager mulch]

Would you use shinano/amagi cv in the same places where you would use any of the TEX carriers?

[slow fox]

I would not use Shinano where I would use Unicorn smh

[gaunt dagger]

Idk

[gaunt dagger]

So t0 Tex are the same

[stark quiver]

you shouldnt decide wether a ship is worth to build or not based on ectl

[gaunt dagger]

Well I don’t really have anything else to go off of

[eager mulch]

this guy used ectl but didn’t read the guidelines smh my head

[gaunt dagger]

Yep silly me 🤦‍♂️

[stark quiver]

they have guidelines
which i dont bother to read

[slow fox]

You should go off your heart <3

That makes you much happier than going off ectl.

[stark quiver]

so what im hearing is use amagi chan w15

[eager mulch]

yes

[frank pulsar]

thats arguably worse
tldr anything below t2 is prob not worth using at all
but ye read the guidelines and the descriptions where available, if you blindly follow the list youre just gonna end up with bricked fleets and gear

[civic crag]

Why can’t I trigger normal touch for agir maid skin

[eager mulch]

what dev level is she

[gaunt dagger]

Also is getting a third academy slot advisable

[eager mulch]

better yet go to ectl server itself if you have any questions

[civic crag]

28

[hollow gust]

you should still be able to fondle her no matter the dev level , either way its probaly cause you dont know how to touch her correctly

[stark quiver]

bro what

[civic crag]

Time to search on YouTube How to touch agir

[eager mulch]

HUH

[stark quiver]

[sharp socket]

[hollow gust]

oh god that sounds terrible, uhhh it should be a headpat that triggers normal

[civic crag]

Nah it triggers rub

This is peak Azur lane gameplay discussion

[frank pulsar]

touching places other than the aboba and head shld trigger normal touch no?

[civic crag]

No it triggers main screen

[frank pulsar]

ill give it a try rq

[zenith heron]

I think its random places that isn't the special touch and rub interaction, had it wrong from NJ's Bikini Skin (looks rng to me)

[frank pulsar]

yea seems that way to me as well

[civic crag]

Bruh what

Good to know

[frank pulsar]

just use the archive menu to interact
guaranteed whatever reaction you want from her

[civic crag]

Ye Fr

[rain bobcat]

skins have weird spots

normal touch on helena bikini is on her breast

[stark quiver]

[rain bobcat]

and the special touch is lower

[hollow gust]

well her gimmick is her tummy, thats not a surprise

[eager mulch]

helena swimsuit got me acting unwise

[still nest]

How to get more ships in this faction? 🗿

[eager mulch]

did you consult the wiki

[stark quiver]

just mlb the ones you have

[sly robin]

Can someone explain what do these classified files do?

[keen sable]

story plus UR design

[sly robin]

UR design?

Oh only story?

[finite crag]

ur design plans

[sly robin]

Its important then?

[finite crag]

its free ur plans so yea

one time use

[sly robin]

Okay noted. Ty

[rain bobcat]

[paper timber]

The new Aux gear skin from shop doesn’t seem to work, I tried on all of the ship. As matter of fact, most of the new aux gear skins, including the masks doesn’t apply when I put them on ship

[rain bobcat]

masks have been fixed since 2 weeks ago and the new aux gear is animated loop

it makes a ball of fire/phoenix appear periodically

[paper timber]

It said that no skin match the gear skin

[rain bobcat]

wat

[paper timber]

And I don't see them animated in fleet waiting screen

Which is where the Aux gear skins supposed to show up

[rain bobcat]

i can

[paper timber]

I try both in vanguard and backline and I can't see them

[rain bobcat]

did you use both together

[paper timber]

No

I try each one seperately

[rain bobcat]

use both

[plain saffron]

Huh did it says it needs both

[whole crypt]

both what?

[rain bobcat]

not that i remember but it only works with both

typical spag coding like with the masks bugging out

[whole crypt]

the mask cosmetics last few events?

[topaz smelt]

have they fixed amagi?

[whole crypt]

what was broken

[topaz smelt]

distance buff

[whole crypt]

how

[topaz smelt]

apparently it was based on the planes distance instead of ship

thats what i heard atleast, never checked myself

[whole crypt]

lmao

[rain bobcat]

yeah

it either broke itself or the other aux equipped with it

it was fixed a week after the first one dropped though

[whole crypt]

what's supposed to happen with it, do you get something equipping more than one of them

[civic crag]

It’s probably because he didn’t equip an aux

[blissful hamlet]

How tanky is eldrige retro as opsi boss tank

[hollow gust]

against stuff like med harby not very

[blissful hamlet]

Good enough for abyssal then

[hollow gust]

its abyssal, most things deal with it just fine

[light flax]

So guys i have 177 left of pity for amagi and i got another dupe should i keep going

[topaz smelt]

you do you

[stark quiver]

46 cubes up to you

[topaz smelt]

we told him 80 pulls ago to not pull for dupes

[light flax]

Im addicted to pulling

Its an addiction

[stark quiver]

cool then go ahead

[pseudo stream]

in arbiter (hard) fight if all fleets fail is there anything i can do (besides repeatedly try for rng) other than take the l and upgrade

[stark quiver]

call for subs

[pseudo stream]

did that in my 4 fights

[stark quiver]

203/203/153 adapts?

[pseudo stream]

no

195/200/186

[stark quiver]

then get the remaining adapts, if it fails then take the L
this month is heavy armour

[pseudo stream]

also unrelated, but what does doing map coordinates and siren coordinates do/give, and is it worth it to do them (or at least certain ones)

[topaz smelt]

better loot

[pseudo stream]

so i should be doing all of them

[topaz smelt]

if you can beat them yes

[civic crag]

Bro the 13-4 large carrier fleet launches like 60 planes at once am I supposed to shoot them all down

[topaz smelt]

most of them yes

[civic crag]

All at once? How tf

[topaz smelt]

better gear/ better ships/ better AA

[civic crag]

Bro I have a max sandykai and even she couldn’t do shit

[topaz smelt]

does she have a proper AA gun?

[civic crag]

Twin 120

[topaz smelt]

proper fleet built against planes

wtfs a twin 120?

[whole crypt]

I recommend getting the hell away from screen time if you can't stop pulling, what do you even do when you run out of currency

[light flax]

Buy more currency

[ebon verge]

is corrosion 4 zones and below worth doing? (hidden)

[civic crag]

Lololol nvm guys false alarm level diff issue again

[topaz smelt]

if you get the auto clear you dont have a choice

[civic crag]

I just need to nuke the carriers before they launch

[whole crypt]

well your money your choice then, if you can afford it
I'll just said as a matter of personal experience skipping meals to pay for gacha was not good for me

[ebon verge]

no i mean the hidden ones, with map coordinate 4 and below

[civic crag]

I cleared it easily with my boss fleet

[topaz smelt]

id do them all since they can still give gold mats

[rain bobcat]

this happened to it on release

[whole crypt]

lol?

[rain bobcat]

they fixed it after a week though. they might fix the new aux this update if they're supposed to work on their own and not only when together

[whole crypt]

I know they can somehow drop a gold plate but I've never seen one come from a c2 myself

[topaz smelt]

ye c2 i dont think ive seen one too

[civic crag]

Lucky meow proc

[light flax]

Yeah i completely understand that im just tryna get a good fleet thats all

[topaz smelt]

but idc about 20ap

[civic crag]

I got one gold aux mat

[light flax]

And i like ship girls

[whole crypt]

gachaing without thought doesn't really give you a good fleet, knowing how the game works does

[civic crag]

Bulins are free, you’ll need your cubes for the next UR banner

[stark quiver]

getting a good fleet doesnt require spending money, nor does it reqire pulling for dupes

[whole crypt]

the thing is C2s because of map structure very rarely spawns additional shit

[topaz smelt]

its pretty much just the 1 box

[whole crypt]

and you'll need to roll a good one to actually get something

[topaz smelt]

can it spawn akashi?

[whole crypt]

C2s are 10, but I'd rather spend on C5 repeat

[light flax]

Idk i just play azur lane as any other gacha game

[whole crypt]

maybe? I've never seen her there

[topaz smelt]

if it can it might be worth, since they do have higher spawn rates iirc

i dont rmbr either

[whole crypt]

which is usually a problem because AL has a lot of shiny traps that are 🚮

it's literally one of the most common problems we get asked when new players come and tell us they're stuck with something

[civic crag]

Yep

[light flax]

Yeah its hella different compared to like genshin and honkai

[civic crag]

Enterprise is probably the only beginner ship that’s good

[whole crypt]

Enterprise is not a beginner ship though

[stark quiver]

1 enty isnt a newbie ship
2 helena and unicorn exist

[whole crypt]

your starter is, alongside shit that gets handed out over the first 2 chpaters and guild shop

[civic crag]

Huh isn’t she pity for newcomers

Like when I started playing she’s the first cv I got cause u get her with like 40 pulls or smt

[inner delta]

theres no pity just at all

[whole crypt]

nope

[sweet delta]

That was an event

[whole crypt]

Enterprise is either medal or rookie missions
rookie missions you can't even clear till ch8

[civic crag]

Oh

[whole crypt]

it's why there are side recommendations for your third main fleet ship that are easier to get and will work until you get Enterprise or something else flashy

[civic crag]

I started playing because I heard of the commander support programme lmao

[whole crypt]

they have special new player campaigns like once in... a couple years, maybe

[pulsar hornet]

What loadout do you use on Amagi CV when doing a Haku, Shina, Amagi fleet? Double Dive Bombers? Rocket Fighter?

[stark quiver]

depends on the boss

[pulsar hornet]

Nugget Meta is my target right now so Heavy Armor

[whole crypt]

is that the same as what rice posted like 3 days ago

[pulsar hornet]

Wait, Mogador is preffered now?

[hollow gust]

Yeah it works well, got 2 one shots with Amagi already

[whole crypt]

you sound like she wasn't

[vale spindle]

jimmy posted a vid recently using that same vanguard but with alsace instead of amagicv

[pulsar hornet]

Oh huh... right, she has High DPS so long as she's alive. Just suprised no Helana?

[plain saffron]

It does when there's new server event

[sweet delta]

Only two?

[hollow gust]

Not for dps

[whole crypt]

probably copypasta from CN, I'm using that now

[vale spindle]

her stab causes a brief slow which you can barely sync with
timings are pretty tight and suspect to rng cause stab can miss

[hollow gust]

Only started today lol, my Amagi is only 7/10/6

[pulsar hornet]

Ohhh utility

[whole crypt]

no Helena is par for the course when you're looking for reliable oneshots

[civic crag]

Is there any reason to use converging other than with slow or b2 zoning support

[whole crypt]

Helena is literally the final option if there's no other way to squeeze enough damage

[pulsar hornet]

What's the time I'm looking for here?

[vale spindle]

the purple converging options are better than the purple parallel options

[whole crypt]

I'm fine waiting with purple baraccudas

[civic crag]

Is there any reason to use the b7a ryusei

[vale spindle]

not especially

[civic crag]

Other than with slow and b2 zoning support

[whole crypt]

purple ryuusei no
purple tenzan is better

[civic crag]

I’m using the gold one

[vale spindle]

the not especially should have come after your followup statement but thats my stance on it

[whole crypt]

well they're specifically for sniping bosses, you don't do very much with them for mobs

[civic crag]

Ok good

[pulsar hornet]

Is it every 20 sec like Helena?

[vital phoenix]

Is there a way to get enough tuning for harbiter without buying tuning sample?

[hollow gust]

Play more opsi

[opaque galleon]

Where do you get more crystal fragments?

[plain saffron]

Opsi voucher shop, weekly mission, getting more copy of META than you need to mlb

[vast sparrow]

what

[plain saffron]

There's a few of unreleased gear ingame

how did you found the site

[vale spindle]

its like every 12s ish cause the stab happens slightly after the proc, so if your CVs are slow ish (23ish sec) you can sync with it due to delay between button press -> torps launch

https://youtu.be/nuo4ZX2hOe8?si=fWYC-sdfDQxwBEOz jimmys vid on comp

[plain saffron]

Only need to sync 3rd airstrike right

[opaque galleon]

Is upgrading a third Tenrai to 13 higher priority than upgrading first la9 now?

[topaz smelt]

i was working with jimmy with that comp

[pulsar hornet]

Hmmm. So this is manual?

Wait nvm

[plain saffron]

No

[light trail]

i can make 2 flapjacks right now, do i make 2?

asking bc it shares mats with the rainbow NJ gun, but that one's probably a month or two away so i think it should be fine, but im not sure. consulting the gear lab command priority btw

[rare shoal]

what am I looking for in a meowficer

[crimson grove]

I cant believe I was working on getting USS exp while not starting Halford
No wonder I didnt get notifications for research count

wasted a week notlikethis

[analog swallow]

any way to retrofit eldridge if i missed her event

[strong tartan]

No

[finite crag]

yep just wait a year or two

[vivid dune]

Is there any gear I should be grinding the event stages for?

[plain saffron]

Nope

[light trail]

will i be handicapping myself because it shares electronics mats with NJ event gun, wyvern (next one is far away tho), and the rainbow AA (lower prio than other gear?) or is it fine

[silk sphinx]

What kind of content are you facing?

For HE, at +10 the difference between the nj gun and your standard purple 406 is just like 8% or something

[frank pulsar]

iirc mk7 isnt high prio, rainbow aa is definitely not a prio, theres time before next wyvern
i say go for it imho if you got nothing better to make

[silk sphinx]

Rainbow aa is nice but then aa is kind only needed for like w13/15, and you can definitely do them without rainbow

And w13 isn’t even hard at all these days

[frank pulsar]

nah only 15 prefers it
w13 is doable with just hellcat and roomba

[silk sphinx]

Yeah that’s the thing, you want aa but these days you can brute force it or just use worse options generally

Flapjacks are nice but also they’re superior over the competition only in interception

Which is basically extra aa

So like, they’re nice upgrades, but you can postpone any of them

[frank pulsar]

isnt it cheaper than stuff like tigercat? just make it if need 2x1000 fighters

[silk sphinx]

Idk It’s been a long while since I was gearlab poor so I don’t rly care about those costs

[light trail]

uhh i would say at this point im probably going to start tryna tackle w13 and w14, i'd like better setups for arbiters (abyssals are no problem) and meta showdowns + challenge modes

[frank pulsar]

im still poor on electronics i do opsi every 2 or 3 months

[silk sphinx]

Arbiters don’t rly care about aa so it’s rly w13 that wants it

But w13 is years old at this point and the meta has shifted a lot

[whole crypt]

but ch15

[silk sphinx]

Which means if you’ve been pulling newer ships and getting gear you’ll do fine

W13 hard is pretty hard though

[light trail]

i guess i can hold off on rainbow 406 until i have more wyverns, also yeah i started w13 and was able to clear 13-1 without the most trouble, i assume i'd be able to do much better now and with help for fleet comp. w14 sounds like it might be out of my reach currently due to missing really good URs like guam and laffey2 and unzen

[sage marlin]

Heya, i wanna build my sandy with proper aa focus for w13 and on, what would be a good choice for her main gun in that Case? That rainbow quadruple 152mm?

[light trail]

i'll go for the flapjacks now then

[silk sphinx]

W14 has lesser aa requirements and if you have a number of the newer URs I’m certain we could fix something up

[pseudo stream]

for classified files logger, does the xn (where n is a number 4-7) matter? Also if I have to choose between getting one of those or 3x r5 coordinate loggers what should i pick?

[light trail]

im unfortunately missing most of the recent really good URs

[silk sphinx]

Hah, you’ll do just fine

W14 is also years old by the way

[light trail]

yeah i got plenty for sure, just sad i dont have more pretty shiny ladies

[silk sphinx]

Anyways you could definitely do both w13 and w14 with your current roster

But have fun upgrading stuff

[light trail]

tyty for the advice

[silk sphinx]

Classified files loggers are one time only but also never expire. The coordinate loggers refresh every month

Idr anything about the numbers but each classified logger should lead to a UR blueprint iirc

The rewards for coordinate loggers are random

[pseudo stream]

ah, so get coord loggers and just get classified ones next month (if i can afford) since i don't desperatly need a ur print

[light trail]

now the question is, who gets them first? i really don't think uni needs them in what i've been using her for (basically everything in w12, events, opsi mobs) so i'd like to put them on a cv fleet ship (currently haku, shinano, avp, but amagi might replace haku here later? thoughts appreciated lol), tho i did say imma do w13 soon. hmmmm

[eternal basalt]

No diff, but pick the c5, they are permanent there

[topaz smelt]

Generally classified are the last thing you pick up as they're always readily available while everything else is on a monthly rotation

[crimson grove]

how come I copy the nugget comp and still miss 11 bars of hp

[whole crypt]

because the comps are not 100% oneshots

[crimson grove]

okay I'll take my 1.2m

[plain saffron]

There's nugget comp?

[crimson grove]

for nagato meta
copied the triple CV one but ofc I dont have 2 goldburns

[rain bobcat]

[topaz smelt]

Unzen diff

[drowsy hornet]

On Unzen's wiki page, what does it mean, precisely, when it says that torpedo charges reload simultaneously? What is the actual in-game effect of that?

[wispy pendant]

Double reload

Double preload

She always gets 2 shots.

[drowsy hornet]

I know she gets 2 preloads, she has 2 torp mounts. I mean how very specifically does that very last part function? Do they not reload until you fire both? Does it reload both regardless whether you fire them both or only 1?

[wispy pendant]

It reloads both

[boreal wagon]

whenever she would finish 1 torp reload she instead just gains 2

[wispy pendant]

I waited a hell of a long time watching you finish typing for you just to not listen to what I told you at first?

[drowsy hornet]

So she just reloads both of them regardless whether or not you fire both of her loaded torps. Got it.

[boreal wagon]

yes but if you havent fired one of them she gains 1 instead of 2, because she can only hold 2 (aka u cant make it say 3/2)

[craggy storm]

Can you help me build a fleet?

[drowsy hornet]

You said it in the simplest, most dumbed down way that gave me 0 technical information whatsoever

[wispy pendant]

I sleep

[quartz jungle]

Does the last Manjuu Cake game give you any rewards?

It justs gives me a perma notification

[formal crag]

I find project identity rly difficult any tips? I can hardly achieve the growth goals

[plain saffron]

Usually ship have 2 torps but it will only reload 1 at a time
Unzen can reload 2 at a time

[whole crypt]

if you need fleet help start a thread with your dock and what you need the fleet for

[uneven badger]

how to increase cv rld?

[inner delta]

you get beacon or increase tech
