ok got it,
Yes
Get to chapter 9 and then can raise a second fleet
how about fleet 2, what are ur recommendatios
Not to be confused with hms enterprise
When portland gets enough levels she goes in tank position
i see, got it thank you
is there any priortiy ships i need to upgrade?
or ships that are worth taking note of
And read this later when u can
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips
to refresh your knowledge
Unicorn retrofit
Then portland
Mlb hood and enty
If u mean shipyard ignore it for now
Select saint louis
i see, thank you very much
does anyone know the correct like ship dock settings so when u get one copy of the ship it locks it and scraps the rest
so u have one copy of every ship
ibuki is not part of the priority?
She is okay but you should ignore shipyard mostly till u reach chapter 12
And priority then is series 4
Especially anchorage
under settings, and adjust retire settings after that
ahhh ok , got it
my lord mori chan i thank you 

If u have enough tech for anchorage by all means start her
If not pick anyone since it doesnt matter atm
ok sure
Saint louis is a good option since u are using 2 USS ships to grind anyway
Does this have any uses
like besides on Huan Chang herself?
dunno
Does huan chang needs it
The stats are too bad for what it does imo
opsi fleet help
yeah, a White Shell is just better even on Huan Chang
How do I know if enemy is slowed by Mogador?
when she stabs them
If she lunges forward the enemy should be stopped afaik
If she doesnt it means her lunge failed the evasion check
If mog mogged the enemy and the enemy isn't moving
I want to get mogged
How long does the slow last? Like the whole time they're kissing?
that's the root part
What does the coin mean?
you get coins from clearing it
First time seeing it
same
because the 5000 oil thingy claims them all for you
Every reset there will be fixed amount of coins adapt etc that will be put randomly on all explorable zones
Logger will collect all of them
is it a must? I dont plan on buying it
no it’s a QoL item
also my shops did change, am i supposed to buy out all the port shops?(not including gibraltar=
buy what you need
gear lab prints and siren loggers
okay
What's the cruise ship revisitor shop for?
old cruise pass ship skins and gear skins
No meta chips?
why would it give meta chips
old METAs are in the META shop
nice virus
Wtf, I can't the ones I need never pop up

who do you need
But it gives meta chips
what’s a meta chip
To buy older cruise elite META, more will be added over time
To buy past cruise skins
My bad, the crystals in meta shop not cruise
Wait I'm dumb
Meta also in meta shop right?
yes
the cruise pass metas and their limit break materials sent to meta shop
I can't limit break break Vestal META, missing one more
called it
So only skins and gear skins
you'll need to wait for her to be added to the shop then who knows when
Welp wait until she gets added
Not EN when I don't even play the game
I scream lol, thanks appreciate the help yall
is it EN when youre stuck on 11-3 for years? or is it something else
I gonna assume it's either 1 per cruise or maybe they'll speed up to 2 per cruise for first few ones like gold meta
That's skill issue
hey I got timed out
best place for the first la-9?
is there any other way to get cog chips
Core shop, w12+
Stupid question, is it possible fleets could determine who drops from the map? Cause Choukai ain't dropping and ive been going at it for months 
no
no

Unfortunately, rng is a bitch
Then again, you'll probably be at 12-4 for a very long time regardless
It's a really good place to grind
just keep smashing your head against 12-4, rng giveth rng taketh away
Never going back after she drops, grinding for the missing drop ships after
which will not take you forever
Bros flexing...hurt mah feelings
you will return to 12-4 anyways since it's one of the most convient places to farm
W12 is the best place to grind exp and coins with shitty fleets so
you know if it scales or is doing 12-4 only fine?
feel free to have one of my 21 choukais
born to 2-1, forced to 12-4
The higher you go, the better the drops
all I can say is, if you've really been farming 12-4 for months then either your RNG is really bad or you haven't been that active in those few months
I think 13-4 is the best for chips to oil without being unreasonably tough?
Either that or 14-2 I guess
13-1 if you go very low cost, otherwise 15-1
13-1 is definitely better oil/ chip

me personally, I'll be in 12-1 for the forseeable future still
Maybe you're right but I won't admit it...
10pritns per day is okay for FdG or am i wasting too much gold
ok
Yes if you're grinding like w12 for coins
10 is about the sweet spot
in 72 days she will be dev 30
Uh wat
10 a day is less than 72 days for dev 30
i am doing 12-1 for now but shortly will return to 12-4
If it's 10 a day, you should be done in 52 for d30
i forgot fatesim
It's only if you want fs5 does it take 70 days ish yeah
7k coins per day should be okay if there's no ur event ?
Might be tougher when farming events since event maps have lower coin gain
But yes
You're limited by time really
im screwed if an ur event comes around tho
You spend less oil for event maps too, remember?
what if i dont get coins to pull pity?
true makes sense
Well, then it's a matter of planning
When there is an announcement for UR rerun, that's when you pause throwing excessive coins to FdG
i will keep an eye out for that
Operation Siren, spend 1400 coords on 7 meta ships, get 6k gold per ships, total 42k gold per 1400 coords
you're safe for about the next month at least
how do I spend coords on meta ships what?
Meta showdown, dossier
wow didnt know this existed
It's only one time though, so use it if you're in a pinch
ok I will keep it as my final trump card for pulling
Otherwise just become a broke college kid and spend as little gold as possible when event is close
or just farm W12 consistently
i keep some in mail just in case aswell but im scared FdG will eat upo my gold if im not smart about it
12-4 is my home now
cheeky is a professional 12-1 farmer, they even low cost event stages in B1 to save oil for 12-1 farming
28 hours till event ends right?
Yes
are therte benefits for farming 12-1 instead of 4? xp per oil is one i think
xp per oil is about it, slightly easier too
Much easier to solo fleet 12-1 than 12-4 too
is very easy yes i can clear it with very bad ships, 12-4 not so much sadly
12-1 is better if im doing the research missions then
It's also easier to use something like this on the boss
The window is so short
why would you use such a team on boss ? it gives extra xp or what?
to get XP on ships that need it vs using maxed ships that don't
boss also gains exp
oh nvm u level up ships on both fleets lmao
yeah i just put on my strongest ships on boss fleet cuz im scared it wont clear
need to look into that then
leveling ships for tech
or for cheeky get every1 to 120 (pretty sure)
that is the ultimate goal of course
Considering buying cogs now, can you even lvl120 everyone by buying cogs
for how long have you been doining it? when does tech comes in clutch? im yet to look into tech bonus
You do it once you levelled everyone you need
well I've always tried using non maxed ships for farming so around 4 years ish since I started
Like if you already maxed all your ur and what not what else to do
You start looking for new goal and tech is one of them
makes sense yeah, im still very far away from that level
must be pretty important
Depends on what type of tech
no but it certainly helps
Is this a good fleet for Nagato Meta?
you have played for 4 years, what +fp do you get from tech for example?
each bb that has fp gives like +1 or +2
The event milestone worth to reach 100k points to get tech box?
so like at least 100 extra fp considering he has 999999 ships
no
physically impossible atm
cheeky is almost done with backline tech but he hasn’t leveled his amagi chan yet
smh
Let me know when amagi chan gives tech
but still like 40 fp must be huge
amagi chan gives cuteness tech trust
So when to stop?
55k
Ah okay, i got it, already reach over 70k, i will stop at 55k next time, thanks again Elder
he prob has like 90~ fp tech for bbs
Elder Ender 👴
Where's the CV FP tech smh
77 avi 90fp..... 43rld ... wtf
so close to max tech
this is actually nuts you have like 1 extra gear slot with those extra stats
all relevant main fleet tech is maxed bascially, all that's missing is 2 BC FP tech and 1 CV reload from Hosho META
max tech is probably like a 20-30% bonus. maybe even 40% from tactics reload allows.
vanguard FP tech and CA hit is maxed, everything else is a WIP
which is why tech is important, its like having almost 2 extra auxes when maxed
cheeky how do you go on with leveling ships while pr grinding
lmao only 24 cv rld
your lvl95 ships outdamage my 120 ships with the same gear 
he lowered it, the number is grey
I try to level good tech ships that meet the requirements if possible but sometimes you have to bite the bullet and level a ship with bad tech
this is esepcially true for me with main fleet XP going forward
grey number means on purpose
ah i see, btw do you use the fleet tech tracker site to keep track of your ships
developing pr ships takes 30 days. and then it's over
you level ships to 120 cuz u need tech I level ships to 120 cuz i dont even have 2 full 120 fleets 
yeah but it's a bit unecessary for me
I use it mainly just to see how far off I am from max
i memorized all the rld ships for backline 
im missing a lot of ships that have relevent tech, along with vanguards, and bulins are a huge problem rn
I used to do that until I realized the favorite mark was basically just a custom filter
i use it for frontline yeah, way too annoying to remember the dds
wait thats genius
wait u guys dont use favorite to store all leveling ships 
i use favorites to track a certrain group of tech ships
like im working on bb/cv tech rn
honestly they should add multiple favorites so one can have different ship priorities they want to level
suggestions though, not gph
Can you only buy 4 gear skin per month?
I use favorite for my favorite ships
But favorite is for favorite
also search feature is the most helpful
What's al-general about it
It's to tag your ship as favorite
||What you want is pin/bookmark||
since I last updated my opsi fleet I've gotten admiral nakhimov, amagi (cv), and napoli as new rainbows. which of my fleets (4?) should be I be updating?
do you use external tools like organizers or something like that? or there's no need?
that's just the same as favorite
they even have the same heart symbol
But there's no pin/bookmark ingame, only favorite
That's why favorite have favorite icon
there's the fleet tech tracker
I will look into it, i wont need it for now but still
is cv and cvl rld shared
which one are they?
Elbe, Jade, and Weser
and they only affect kms cv/l reload?
btw does the faction tech like the levels give rld tech?
the tracker says i have 5, and in game has 13, im guessing its from that?
they only give CVLs reload tech
faction tech give rld too, yes
nice
eu and rn
so i almost have all the cv rld ships, js need levels now
also cheeky, do you level ships of same hull type like 3 cv or do you mix them
for main fleets I mix them
how do you change server name into im new?
cuz I can't, and it seems like most people here is some random custom names
you have nickname perms, you should be able to
of ur on pc
right click on ur name , there should be an option to edit server profile
pretty sure they've already figured it out
What are some low tech and low fleet/gear strategies for enterprise CM for new players?
new players do CM?
they do, whether they beat CM is a different story
btw
the old bp skins you can purchase after lvl 50,
do they cost gems or you have to top up on the spot
cost gems
880?
880
ty turtle
who’s turtle
If I oath an alternative version of a ship (for example, Bismarck Zwei) will I be able to use the oath skin of the original ?
yes
helena's little pogchamp
you know too much 
Which purple ships should I mlb
unicorn and helena and Saratoga maybe and your starter dd and maybe independence and Nelson but not necessarily in that order
All already mlb, anything else or I just retire my bulins for medals?
im sorry for picking ships you already have done but you didn’t give any fucking context now did you
anyone know where else this back button is used
just use purple bulins for tech fodder idc
Sorry mate, I’ve done all starters, unicorn, Sara, Helena and these
Yuubari exp skill also increase CB exp?
legit just tech fodder
Ok
Yes
ok thank you 
how new 
cuz i did with 3 seconds left 
I bought the data logger but didn't get anything 
Use it in depot
oh wait i forgor 
Hmm does it carry to next month
What is her name?
kazagumo
Looks like kaza
either im blind or its not there
Take a screenshot so we can find it for you 
storage not depot
whos the third one again, its the one with the lamp right? for cv fleet above

Bristol
Tks
Bristol
halp. I have no La-9 and Harbiter with its summons makes my CV fleet useless for 1 strike lmao
Then kill it with the other 3 strikes
https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/pvpguide
is this website a good guide to follow for PvP ??
I can't lol. it hits so hard and the 5% dmg every 10s griefs my vanguard's survivability.
The tierlist isn't even updated lol
whats the arbiter this month, light?
yea
welp another takoyaki grilling fleet
La9 is mid against light
Do the event end today or tomorrow?
You have about over 25 hrs before the event ends
is there an updated verison of it, or a better website ?
ECTL is about as good as you're gonna get for a tier list
Hello , I recently returned to the game and want to continue chapter 15 grind - is there anything that need adjustment here to make it better sicne this fleet can’t 100% auto this . (I had missed almost every event since Guam)
jimmy has a tier list though its more catered to endgame and opsi
wait there is a chapter 15 now?
has been for around a year
can u send it here please ?
No clue where that even is lol would love a link to that ngl
wow i just got back on seriously again im still trying to understand this whole TB secretary thing
probably some trolling as usual
there's not much to improve in terms of ships besides eldridge or dev30 shimanto, but you can check /w15 in #bot-spam for improving gear or strategy
its pretty useless to someone not in actual endgame
is haku or nano better at campaign bossing
should be in his discord or yt saw it 2 weeks ago
If you're looking for gear choices, you're better off looking at guides for that 
Is hiei meta worth getting crystals for?
Is hiei meta on the same level as odin?
better
is it safe?
whos ?
Yes
What even is defined as endgame? Everything 120+ and +13? Max tech? W15?
well its more like
i assume it's the boss fleet that dies, then at least replace ply with shimanto and possibly replace brest with jeanne (anchorage in front, jeanne middle, shimanto back)
from what I saw his tiers are what he finds useful from his criteria which I haven't bothered to listen to
theres no defined meaning of endgame
there are ships lower than a lot of people would put them because he dosn't find them as useful in say, harbiter or META one shots or because there's a better counterpart
Would try it - thank you
I do have her on dev 30 so is doable
Also help
To be fair that is mostly just cheesing and that is more sweaty than 90% of the player base (I think)
Equipment something like this right ?
his tier list is fine imo, but it depends if the person reads/watches his explanation for each ship
because theres a lot of weird placements if you were to look at it and comment
not sextuple for anchorage, and the stranger+fs4 shimanto is unfortunate but ok
bofors on ancho
I need jsut like 30 prints for fate 5
after fs5 then you can get rid of her triple 150mm gun for quad 152
If not sextuple on anchorage then rainbow aa ? and stranger ?
how did u mange that with level 125
Books
Still missing the final 10 then
"Couple days" 
should i first mlb and use I-19 or get 2 cannons for royal fortune? i like RF and think she's hot so i'll use her anyway but idk sub fleet relative strength so i wanna do the smarter thing first
only got base equips on her unfortunately
keep RF in until you get a better three-sub fleet
Is there no maintenance tonight?
it's tuesday
Yeah, I realized that right after posting.
and they're on holiday
okok. im still waiting on u-96 to drop in medal exchange but there's never any freaking SS in there
800 core for one gun, what a scam. I'd just keep using the blue guns
might just medal gacha for her xd
is there not that much of a difference or just really really not worth
gotcha
how are you guys getting good research projects ??? All my projects are either medium to large with huge amount resources needed
are you priortizing a season's research? also it's random
RNG
mhmm
well you just have bad luck so far
also the only small projects I keep on getting are the blue ones
... Those are the ones you want
huh ??? but they dont have the weap blue print thingy
they have
What are you trying to get, ship blueprints or gear?
every project type can be blue
blue research gear can drop rainbow bp
like this one... no gear blueprints ???
that is for ship bp
gear
if you want weapon go for G or Q or face all can drop gear
/research

of course I am trying to get 30 min ones
Only do the cube researches if you have well over 400 cubes in stock
you dont wanna do H (cube analysis) too often bc they take cubes as payment
it's all rng
I keep on getting long hours one... or smol ones with no gear
long hours doesnt mean bad
if you have all bad researches you do have one daily refresh
as long as its not the free researches its fine
if you're talking about basic research, never take that
To give you an idea, this is what I currently have for researches
btw all research types can take a long time, you gotta be a bit more descriptive
LOL thats kinda of me except there are like 3 of the 2nd to the left ones in a roll
this is mostly the same as mine, except i have some purple face researches and rigging analysis
Yeah, I got a little unlucky, but I'm not too far from finishing the non-rainbow ships
and tbh, i never get the ones that cost cubes, except if its the 30 mins ones
I have 1100+ cubes, so I take them when there's nothing better
Optimal backline build for the Nagato META OpSi fight?
depend on what setup yr running
iirc people like to run triple ijn cv backline synced to mog
I've been jumping around various triple BB ones. Trying Alsace/BisZwei/Vanguard atm.
Oh?
uh, triple bb shld be less consistent than cv
are you trying to one shot or two shot?
One shot.
I've dropped her down to maybe 9 once.
for an opsi BB boss fleet, is it better to use SG radar on helena and 18s BB guns with HSFCRs; or no SG radar and standard champy + black white shells?
champy with hsfcrs and sg radar
try musashi over alsace/vanny ig
but this month it's Mk6 or Mk7 instead of champy
even though radar scan will eventually desync more and more? also HSFCR with black or white shell is better?
radar scan is always 20s, only the first one is 16s if SG. Like 16, 36, 56, 76
zwei and musashi gets the afct, use triple 410 on musashi and champy on the other two
your vanguard should be smth like ply + unzen + helena/ibuki
ply tank and uses washing machine + fumo, the rest use full oxytorp
radar scan is 16, 36, 56, 76. champy is 20, 41, 62, 83. It barely sync enough
izumo gun with AFCT+autoloader if you have that +13 instead of the daisen gun
why mog, bb can still line up with her stun?
unironically
for dmg
lmao
I tried using champy gun setup and 460 on musashi
then wouldn't unzen be better for dmg
dmg was basically the same or better even when musashi barely caught radar scans
if i dont have daisen gun yet twin 410 kai is the best for musashi in the BB fleet?
actually for alsace buff because alsace goes last of the BBs
he said use izumo gun with autoloader if no daisen gun
probably alsace things
Izumo gun should be in gear lab
how do you showcase your fleet in this layout ???
Triple410 Musashi and Champagne yeah or?
oh sorry I can't read 
It's the triple 410 yes
triple 410 + autoloader 🤏< daisen gun
twin 410 kai is HE and not comparable, only use on mob or light boss
copy suchiguma setup instead
ah thx
how much damage is musashi gun compared to her barrage?
also why flandre on bis
like 60% gun and 40% barrage...? idr the numbers and idr my source
if i use agir instead of mogador here in this fleet should i put triple torp on her for syncing or quad torps for dps since the slow doesnt matter with bisko's black hole
Does that purchasable bed add any new animations or whatnot in the 3d dorm?
that's for Nagato META if you don't have good CVs. And only use aegir with triple torp if you don't have Unzen
How good is the Twin 406mm (16/56 mk4 Prototype) other than PVP and being an upgrade material for the 457 mark A?
good against Arbiter Strength and that's it
Will take note 
when do you think eldridge retro item is coming back
missed it while on vacation during august and didn't even realize until now
how's the history on sandy's and yuudachi's and warspite's
i'm not sure it's been years
1 year for rerun
About a year
Then perma into spec core
kinda bummed i missed out cuz she's broken
Only for certain content
i need the extra vanguard sustain
Live with Jeanne I suppose
yeah she's not that neccessary for damage check contents
jeanne not worth using with what i have
i can just use straight up tankier ships
and pvp is basically gonna be unplayable vs people with eldrige retro💀
not rly as long you have the laffey diff
It's unplayable already cos of Laff2
Cat Exp box or Meta crystals which is better? Got 4 crystals already
eldrige retro is the only ur im missing
Is the meta Currency for exp book good
wait how many currency do you have 
383 iirc
383k?
Oh this event 10k left
also does buying extra meta crystal give you something good
@storm heron you call elite cat boxes useless until you try and roll an elite cv cat with the 3% dmg boost
10 currency for meta shop
Who would have that much?
there's a reason I deleted my message
The no lifers on Amagi 
some people
Look at top 2 for Amagi
idk why they added the leaerboard or what they are trying to prove lmao
327k on washi
To catch the cheaters 
No blud said meta currency so I was scared as fuc
average amagi nolifer kekw
That’s why it exists that’s it
oh the cheating people like on little enty
258k is wild
Havent checked Wall of shame for a long time
UR event ban wave tradition
my Takao can solo everything
is this the last day?
Last day of the event maps and I hope not the server
Does the 1.5s initial cooldown apply to vanguard torp as it does to main fleet strikes?
But... but... Roma
Roma coming right up?
Stream said Roma rerun confirmed
Just wanted to ask about the new Private Quarters Area - Are you able to buy (With coins or gems) gifts? and where is the shop for it?
For this CM what's good load out because all my torps are missing
i have 4100 points and this is all thats left, what i get doesn't matter right
Believe so tho catboxes = gamba = goog
are any of the metas in the meta shop worth?
All 3 of them are super good for fleet tech
Beyond that nah
Purple metas are generally poo
Didn't say when though, but I expect it to be just like last year 
In the gift option you can buy the second one for coins
The META's don't take dockspace so no need to skip out of any
do meta ships need mlb to reach 120
no
They're like research ships
is Hiei META worth to buy from the event shop ?
yes
If you haven't dropped her, yes
Oh, I see now. I thought that icon was for Akashi's shop lol. Tyvm 
is it wise to upgrade houshou meta cause i have the meta stone thing
No reason not to, like research ships they use max oil from the get-go
ahh ok
do i have other fleet compositions thats better than what i have rn for w13
how reliable is ectl?
Very, assuming it's campaign up to w13
Anything else and you need to take it with a grain of salt
as reliable as their assumption goes
Mob fleet:
Swap ancho and chesh, replace UvH with Saratoga
You need more carriers otherwise you will not hit air superiority, weakening your fleets
Boss fleet: Swap Laffey and Sandy
Then it is better to replace frida with saratoga
Possible too
There are no suicide boats to intercept tho
And FdG can spam her barrage from planes hitting her
The key thing is you really want carriers
You can even run 3 carriers in w13 mob
But you don't have better so
Your truth
uhh what are the general guidelines with 14-3 and 14-4?
Same as 14-1 and 14-2
But you'll need asw on mob now
So throw an ASW plane on Uni, and a hedgehog on a DD/Sandy
No gold asw plane from event? Gearlab time
If you for whatever god forsaken reason scrapped your hedgehog?

I hope you have an eldridge kai then
alright I kept the hedgehog because I had a sneaking suspicion I'd need it
You can only get one of it so
So I will need to replace Perseus with uni?
ideally yes
Percy is worse than uni
Especially in drawn out battles
And battles will draw on a bit longer
FdG with 155 kai, good ASW, ideally have secondary healer too like Aquila or Volga on mob
or Musashi if you have it
I don't have musashi :( I do have Volga though
does anyone else sometimes crash when opening the 3d dorm? usually if you've had the game open for a long time
wanan know if im the problem or if its a bug that'll get fixed
happens to most players
I mean I often crash when I claimed comissions too fast, it is not an uncommon issue
Is hiei meta significantly better than odin?
Earlier someone told me she's better :/
Hiei META most certainly isn't
The only BC distinctly better than Odin is like
Tamaki from one of the collabs
Hiei META is better than Odin, Ruppy and Hood for bosses, I'll give you that
Speaking of collabs, do we know what collab is coming up?
To love ru darkness
Does that one have good units?
I ended up getting hiei's mats and everything. But I run alsace so... is she even worth?
she is not in the level of URs
Every gold BB/C dreams of being a UR
unless your URs are missing limit breaks
And while a select 2 or 3 come close
They're still behind FdG, who is the weakest of the true rainbow BBs
Yeah my DD UR is missing 1 lb
I'm excluding warkai
Oof I'm building her. Is there someone else I should focus?
You build FdG because she's still better than every other gold BB
Unless you already have most of the other UR BBs max limit broken
I would still get her
And for the matter, she's much easier to get in comparison
And she's still the best mobber for w14
Better than odin? Sorry odin is my mob team lol
^
weakest among ur bbs still means shes head and shoulder above gold ones
FdG, NJ and UvH are the weakest of the rainbow BBs (that are not named warspite)
But besides warspite, they are indeed, still way better than most gold BB/C
Only a select few come close but they don't beat them
I just got watarase. Is she good?
eh
Good, but not worth investing in unless you have literally nothing else
i dont think she is bad but i dont really see much use for her
not bad but not useful
Raise her for tech points
for light armor damage, is spearfish better than converging TB?
ye, rocket is better than torp on light
Well, yes ish
Is drake actually bad? Or she's good, but there's just better option
What she's good at? Damage? I think i heard somewhere that she can't tank but is that true?
i have my doubts about spearfish
The issue really boils down to is it worth the cost?
Also because your fighter slots are locked to rocket fighters and DB to skyraider, you're usually forced to use the TB slot to sync
I wouldn't bother with spearfishes as a result
Damage primarily - we use her dps as the bar for what makes a great DPS
She's slightly tankier than Portland iirc?
Is it actually worth +13ing pancakes for W15
not really you make it through just fine without throwing that many plates down the drain
Better to invest the gold plates in your DPS planes instead
bomb fighters are never worth +13
are the beehive round BB guns good?
no
Just like irl, they are garbage
understood
is it better at mob?
Spearfish is the best mobbing TB for DPS... In opsi where there are no planes
It plays second fiddle to the wyvern in campaign, since it has interception
Wyverns are thus more valuable and higher priority to craft
If I use a cv in a Helena buffed fleet should I use planes with timings around 10s or is it better to still use the best dps planes i have?
If they don't sync with Helena's window it's pointless
You can't just look at "10s timing"
It's not that simple
All the relevant dive bombers are at least 11s anyways
You have to look at the carrier after all their gear is on
And then account for skills, beacon etc
Yep I meant this timing
i shouldnt use x2 sortie in War archive right?
Well, what's stopping you?
The issue with syncing CVs with Helena is that you also have to include the plane travel time
Which is about an additional 1.5s (it varies)
And that obviously, airstrikes reloads are a bit slower than BB salvos
Ok let's assume an opsi battle where it's 80s yeah?
Helena debuff lasts 10s
So a god tier Helena (without sg ofc) has debuff active at
20-30, 40-50, 60-70
So I either respect these windows or i go 3 bb
When calculating you have to include the 1.5s plane/torpedo travel time
Thanks
Without high reload tech and beacons it's a royal pain
Another reason you don't see Helena often for CV is because there are so many CV buffers
It's not quite the same with BBs
CVs have Sirius, and ARA skill like Kazagumo, Stephen, Kearsage, or even stuff like Baltimore for US ones
The only dedicated BB buffer is Plymouth
I mean I guess you can make a case for Halford, but trying to sync with her float plane means 457s everywhere, and desyncing from Helena soooo
And ofc the nail in the coffin is that BBs have lower damage thresholds anyways
CVs are harder to get up to their potential, but they do better
world 14 problems are SS+suicideboat+BB shooter
what about world 15?
How do I farm T3 Ordance Testing Report? Or it's only buyable in OpSi shop?
iirc you can craft T3 with T2
Ok I farmed a bit mats to upgrade chappy, is this at least serviceable
double suicide boats, ramming dmg, ridiculous AA compared to w13
oh so no BB targeting mfs?
no
i mean—
NO WAY
Give her a gold rudder, Fargo drone is shit
Thank you very much
is that mob lol
What is this shade thrown at Fargo drone
14-4 boss
Yes there are those mfs, main fleet nodes have bbs that can fire salvos to your backline
at the end of the day i use my mob fleet to defeat the boss
don't remember the boss doing more than half the flagship
fucking hell all i had to do was having fast proc CVs
vanguard being there is already the issue lol
been using haku and yorktown II before this one, still get obliterated
the boss in 14-4 shreds everything in my fleet but the flag usually doesnt get hit that much, unless sudden death shell
You need to stagger the damage
Hey after the first UR event, how long does it take for them to rerun it, i.e when is Unzen getting a rerun since her first event was around this time last year
this is my mob fleet, that obliterated the boss, ironically
if u want just reset and pray more, its how i did my 14-4 anw 
Wtf musashi not flag?
she is
screenshot gesture mess with the position
Oh no wonder they survive the shelling i guess
i had to postpone pink girl early procs
What is that
drone

Ah yes manuals
I mean what is the rudder
High performance washing machine
bros act like people able to auto 14-4 when the threat level is still lethal
that's what most of us did....
I only have 2 for my tanks
you can auto it though??, thats how i cleared 14-4
I mean sure maybe you won't hit it up 100% reliably but you can definitely do it
Idk man manual or auto doesnt make much different if you stagger the damage
i did auto my 14-4 lethal mob and boss, except i also reset about 30 times on boss because random death shelling
I guess one could argue manual is better for clearing since you can stagger and aim damage manually
well i did auto it twice, mobs and the boss. but for some reason the last (90% progress) is so hard for no reason
just rng it until it works, 14-4 is rather shit in that sense
assuming you had the skills to determine the correct timing and aim BBs
fucking hell the rest of the fleet were intact while the flag ded
vast majority of players don't actually play better than auto does
Who says that?
him
Sorry I mean, could I see the data that back you up on that hypothesis?
Also between 13-4 and 14-4 is there a lot coin drop different? Assuming someone doing 14-4 just for gold ship drop if any
nubed
on the contrary what makes you think players know what they're doing with manual controls and timing
i feel like this is bit of a situation where 90%+ of players only ever auto, meaning if they ever try to manual they won't have any experience in how to play manual, so it leads to this conclusion
not all that many are even past ch13 and most people just copy comps and auto
most people barely live more but also deal less dmg because they keep dodging too far up or down
I mean I was mistaken to assume so when I saw this one
presumably the people who bother to manual stuff would have experience doing so and would perform well with it lol
I would love for you people to try manualing .2 sec BB and CV timings 

.2 sec?
flicking auto on to get the sync timings auto-sent before turning it back off is a thing you can do tbf
That ruins the whole point of manualing
wdym lol
ye i play manual for the boss at 90% progress that leaves the fleet but the flag intact
fucj those BB shooters
not really, if you're manualling to help the vanguard stay alive
the point of manualing is to make vanguard live or stagger not sync lmao
CVs maybe but then you lose your manual aim bonus for BBs, as well as predictive targeting on moving shit, for the first shot anyway
really would depend on the reason you are manualling
I mean didnt manual still need you too control the ships too? Not only their skill
manual is good at kiting bombs, getting your AA circle to hit planes and getting your ships near subs to bomb them
you need to know where and how to move to actually move out of the way of shit, not into it
reason to manual? flag keep dying when the rest still undamaged
what ship should i get or save for?
everyone
too vague we don't even know what you have
if you know how to hold airstrikes to clear enemy shots it might help your flag survive, it depends on what you're dying to
backread he posted his mob and boss
if you're dying to planes then it'll also mean you'll need to know how to manuever your AA circle and maybe time airstrikes for intercept
backread where, unless discord search is misleading me they last posted 2 days ago
might be a little late to pull for amagi cv but still do so nonetheless, event ends in under 24h
and if you need to do any of that chances are a) you're using the wrong shit b) your shit isn't good enough yet
after that save for possible musashi rerun next, and likely december UR
Should i give support fleet AA radar or catapult aux? Support fleet used to launch fighter for battle fleet, so should i give them AA radar to increase AA dps or catapult? How catapult work on support fleet?
mine dying to BB shooters
that's why i used mob fleet that has 2CVs
catapult
catapult
plane intercept scales on AVI
I see
support fleet is just fighter/fighter CVs
wake me up when zwei
i only have 14 cubes and 22k coins do you think i should save or pull
what's your flag?
musushi (mob fleet)
Btw, a better way to farm hms tech point is farming multiple elites to lv100 right?
just pull, you might get lucky and you have time to save for the next UR
that would actually explain why she's dying, I'd assume you're not using Aquila in that fleet
14 cubes is basically nothing anyway
It's kinda difficult to say whether one is unable to clear because fleet just not good enough or because of rng, sometimes people just manual to decrease losing chance by holding off airstrikes to intercept or kill next wave, or moving ships to clear planes
when will the next UR drop and what should i do to get the most cubes possible? i play daily so i wanna know
you get your cube income by simply playing daily and doing your daily missions
how many do i get from daily missions alone? also how many are there each day
next UR time is unknown, except that musashi is next in line to rerun and theres likely to be a UR event in december
168 guaranteed monthly
When’s the next ur event? December?
Musashi rerun should also give a number of tickets for free summons on her banner too
mob Musashi flag for ch14 kind of doesn't work if you don't bring a main fleet healer
You get a good chunk of cubes from commissions
is it even possible to get 400 cubes in 2 month just in time for the UR?
Didnt tech point only increase when ships is MLB and hit lvl 120 ? Cmiiw
Yes mostly
Easily
guarantee is ~168/month from missions and stuff
the usual you get each month is upwards of 200 including comms
ohh ok
Depends on comission rng but it should be on average, possible
I look at the tech page and it has a limit break thingy and 120
so I guess the former one is for 100?
200 each month is just getting 1 cube/day on average from comms
it's really not hard
also sometimes general shop has cubes for coins you can buy so check that often
coin and merit shop can have cubes
i just need to play daily and do all dailies and commisions right
You could reroll the game until you have Amagi 
Yeah but assuming you dont tempted with another banner like next collab
theres a collab?
Daily also is pretty vague, you can play daily just daily dailies pvp opsi dorm hard mode, or like you level regularly to spend all the oils or low costing
regular play is enough to guarantee every new UR, not right after you start of course but down the road yes
game does not give you cubes and coins upon starting so rerolling is shit
collab event will be in nov
Rerolling for afk game is depressing af
no, you only get tech points from aquiring firs time, mlb, and 120
if you want to reroll, reroll a collab since it doesn't come back 
Still? You have 1 one more day to get an extremely op ship that won't come again in 2-3 years
Oh…..
At least try
If you are new , this is the one case it's worth rerolling for
Yeah, to love ru collab
can someone explain the change in comps for oathed ships
To LoveRu should be coming in nov
amagi cv is that good?
Al does quite a number of collabs
nothing really changes, oathed ships just have slightly higher stat so you may or may not need to compensate for that sync wise
One of the best damage CV, tied first place
High end comps have extremely tight requirements so oathing has an impact. You can compensate for irregular oathing but that means you can't just copy someone
rolled a 470k on showdown just now 
at around what level of play does oathing become relevant, and does this mean vanguard ships are safer to oath?
iirc there's a new tempesta event right? So collab or tempesta first?
never if you dont whale for gameplay
Backline ships are safer to oath for the stats
For non-stat oriented oath, oath whoever you want
but also for pvp oathing for stats is common
oathing for PvP is common but actually the least relevant 
but you can probably get high up in pvp without doing so
you can AotN and rank top 10 without oathing
Yes I will show that, plus without musashi and JintM
Your timings get turbo fucked if one of your ships are oathed and the others are not . Oathing for stats on backline especially CVs really fucked things up
same with meta fights, just do a 2shot and it still works, or even better send out for assist and get an assisted 1shot
or just 1shot without oath
if you want to time main fleets easiest way is either oath everyone or oath no one
How much timing is 6% rld even contribute?
For CVs , a fuck ton
Is it really that much to the point you can't fix it by just switch saiun to junkers
sometimes it makes 3 strike into 4 strike
enough to drift on third strike, particularly if you have a gap with your stopper
you can still time shit with uneven oaths, just that it looks more scuffed 
it depends on the exact comp and gear in question and what boss you're doing
it's overall a headache to use uneven oath fleet
I guess oath slower ships kinda works?
it's possible to tweak timings back with gear and maybe adjust tech but it's a lot more finnicky
Back then when timing AVP with Haku and Shinano , uneven oaths means using really really weird gear , which naturally loses alot of damage
and you may not hit that oneshot
enought to desync everything starting from
2nd/3rd
just ask yourself, you're using +9 helldiver

There was a chinese sync calculator for that trio , utterly disgusting time trying to sync stuff that's not evenly oathed
it's not impossible to adjust sync with partial oath, it's just a lot easier if you oath everything or nothing at all
im actually using +8 helldiver on avp because oathed 100aff shinano 
Is there ever a case where slower ships carrying saiuns might make them going for ryuusei or vit instead and having much higher damage (since 6% avi, hit, and more alpha)
it is always try to sync, or not sync
still does less damage against metato than my bb fleet so its not that good anyway
Dang that's very nasty
That sentence is giving me an aneurysm
Sorry my english is like D
slower ship want to catchup with the faster ships, that's it.
How good was UR amagi not gonna make pity without spending gems 
and you don't wanna put shitass damage plane to do that
Instead of 4% beacon, go oath WARNING: permanent
you can also make stuff go super fast and then use manjuu to bring it back up
One of the best CVs ingame 
for your slow that is
whats the chance of getting a UR?
1.2%
1.2% so relatively high
is there a channel in this sever for "showing off" pulls or something
Trophy room
some people do that here
But there's a chance you won't get any responses, like there's this one time I got #5 on pvp
Caring about pvp is the first issue
Either way , gist is that irregular oath means you need to find more obscure or worse planes in order to satisfy timings . Which means you lose more then the 6% in damage
At least you will get some response from people who enforce the rules
Also number 5 means jack shit if it's not EOS
pvp means jack shit
Where can you prove one's EoS? Is there a leaderboard page?
Take a picture a second before reset 
Like I just take a screenshot of #5 and then post it at the end of the season would that count
pvp channel to flex on people
how do i increase a sihp's bond?
Use but don't abuse them
So photoshop works 
Use them or 1st slot in secretary ( doesn't go max though unless special event )
what
, PVP sweats document them all the time . Your photoshop 🚮
it doesnt because likely the real top 10 will bully you for doing so
dont let their morale drop until they become red face
can anyone help me update my opsi fleets?
Oh no wtf that's just so sweaty, well at least that's less sweaty than photoshopping
should i use the purple triple 406 mk6 over the yellow prototype triple 406 mk6
any thread?
theres only one triple 406 mk6
does secretary affinity increase when im not opening the game?
there is a gold one from pr6
wait nevermind why are there 2 of them named mk6
Gold mk6 has less dmg than mk7 and it's even slower, not worth using it
because kearsarge gun is a Mk6 prototype
keep purple mk6
should i level up my UR to use her in battle or use my current ones?
alr
i did not know this, uh use purple mk6
people say she good damage cv so i think i should?
late emote before i ninja edit

Huh so you did get her , either way you aren't using her yet. You need the bulins
he could also mean any of the perma UR
yeah i got her ||after 2 pulls||
how many bulins do i need?
4
nah i meant amagi cv actually
Until you grab 4 of the rainbow bulins, she's not preferred
i checked trophy its cvmagi he got beginner luck
opsi fleet help pls
They were recc to reroll for Amagi, it would be stupid to go standard 
Approved by fact checker
created 🫡
what about theseus? should i use her
||that message was proved legit by true gph fact checker||
so no?
if you have nobody better sure
people acknowledge the proto mk6 exists? wild 
Theseus will probably be your 3rd ship in the backline if you copy that comp, she would be in enterprise's place
You mean the flan gun?
that's the Triple 380 1935 
kearsarge gun has its uses
why that spot specifically?
I don't even remember the last time proto mk6 was actually used
Oh wait it's kearsoup's not flan's
Cause you should use the other two ships 
Does the unused pity carry over to anything or its just wasted if you don't finish it?
timing
Unless you have enterprise 
W a s t e d
can you name the ships in the picture i cant tell from their chibi form
for the record proto mk6 does more damage per salvo than mk7
What? How
My man, read the paragraph above
it's just slow but there have been awkward comps which uses the gun's timing
Big badda boom
coefficient
Does it matters that much?
it can go upto 150% at +13
mk7 cant even get ahead in coefficient even at +13 vs +10
I see
yeh but for the cost of +11 Mk7 you can already almost +13 Mk6 proto
so in the odd cases where the mk6 proto timing works and you don't actually lose salvos then it works fine
So proto mk6 isn't as bad as I thought it is
the gun is 6 seconds slower than mk7 and purple mk6 so its still weird to use
is the 18% from +13 additive to this?
its still bad because its horrendously slow
124 vs 148 at +13
that's why I'm so dismissive of the proto mk6, for all that it does, on a casual level you won't need to care about it 
it is, but there have been cases where the timing works out for a showdown
but yeh, don't worry about it
proto mk6 is just he version of 460
I've seen a friend of mine using two of those in comp with the 460mm. Used for this, it's "decent", but overall pretty ehh tbh
if you're syncing Helena then generally not worth bothering
thats just stupid
it's more often in non-Helena comps, and only if the timing matches a stop timing for the showdown or maybe a charge gauge you want the shot timing to break
nevermind it doesnt really sync with anything
460 even with helena sure if you know what ur doing but thats not even the same ammo type lol
why would you run 2 HE and 1 ap on a triple bb fleet
Reason why I said "pretty ehh"
He wanted to sync the 460 with other bbs buffs
many people have no idea what they're actually doing with the game 
460 the sashi gun?
yes Yamato gun
yes
Lmao that's skibidi
which basically means when they finally drop Yamato we're probably getting the same shitty gun again
the only ever use it with max tech gun
one of her 60 aa guns 
Ohio skibidi
So any1 +13 460?
of course
Does it deal 16k damage per shell?
16k isn't that much , either way you only max the 460 if you know what your are doing
What is the 460 coefficient?
Syncing a 460 with another BB gun is not one of them
At +13
460 and georgias
Is georgia 467
syncing isn't really the goal with it
it's to make musashi deal an absurd damage even when she's desync'd
honestly the only rainbow gear I regret enhancing to +13 is La-9
Do I have to make dmg per shell×coefficent?
La-9 mid damage?
2 salvos of that gun equals 3 salvos of the other BBs from my tests even when she only hit 1 helena scan
457
460mm is the highest caliber gun ever made so there wont be a 467

i guess you can put it on bzwei and it can sync with autoloader and some tech
Yeah so georgia and 460 electric socket syncs
Wait til people will have three of those
it's good on paper but Amagi basically made it irrelevant, for now
you might use 2-3 on an anti-med fleet
457 is a fast gun it doesnt sync at all
nothing syncs with 460 consistently
It's probably the same case as three 457s, gets beaten by helena until we have a better vanguard bb buffer in the future
the only fighter slot on anti-heavy is Implacable if you use slow/stop
What about ANya and Soyuz comps?
anti light HVAR is still better
so the only place where La-9 actually have a spot that matters is anti-medium
Ic
Or just ditch Helena. Problem (not really) solved
that's where Nakhimov/Soyuz comes in, but since you're using Soyuz you're still down 1 carrier for loading it
not a lot of people run helena nowadays anyway
some just run gunners and others manual with straight torps
For the past 3 metas before nagato , she was literally the best way to oneshot
