[sinful elk]

Someone say shes a usable dps cl and i lack cl so yeah

[atomic abyss]

fair, she is one

[storm heron]

does changing musashi gun to mikasa gun just straight up doubles watarase's damage?

[atomic abyss]

what even is mikasa gun, 410 twin?

[trim path]

just got done with pr4 research, and i don't stay for third tenrai at 8 prints, right? is plymouth next? (as in pr5)

[storm heron]

the gun that comes with mikasa, has the fastest RoF

[atomic abyss]

yes

[atomic abyss]

then you're killing the BB's damage instead

[storm heron]

[wind hazel]

this is some pvp shit

[storm heron]

probably musashi the only relevant fast firing bb rn

[loud cedar]

Is there a preferred pick up for the UR exchange or is it a matter of what I have in my dock?

[atomic abyss]

shinano first until mlb

[loud cedar]

Alrighty, ty

[storm heron]

Is this fleet good enough?

[plain saffron]

For what content

[outer knot]

if I buy the PR2 pack which ship should I get?

[inner delta]

it's literally an impossible fleet

[sweet delta]

#gameplay-help message

[inner delta]

why with the 4 flags

[sharp token]

for light/medium

haku: 22.86
avp: 22.90
shin: 23.00
how about this?

[storm heron]

nah there's just some bugs, rest of it is pretty good though, I like how much things considered in, even the game delays

[sweet delta]

Depends on your dock

[storm heron]

is mr lar even here

[opaque gate]

shinano or UvH to mlb first?

[wind hazel]

nano

[outer knot]

gotcha, was wondering if some of them were generally considered more useful than others based on what other ships are easily accessible. I should just pick based on who would fill gaps in my roster?

[opaque gate]

thanks

[storm heron]

gascogne imo, but it is not worth buying the pr2 compared to pr1 and pr3

[late flame]

eh none of the packs are worth tbh - its essentially just a timeskip for newer players
at the cost of spending money
(as a person who bought everything except pr4 since i didnt need it by the time it came up for sale)

[wind hazel]

personally i only see value of buying PR4

[storm heron]

oh yea pr4 much better value

faster haku fate sim, free tank/root

[outer knot]

thanks all, yeah I'm a new player just looking at the PR packs because I like the guaranteed timeskip just to help me farm events better and fast-track campaign a little

[storm heron]

yea, no problem, always good to consult to know what useful resources are relatively scarcer

[bold cove]

Later he can catch up prints to buy gear in proto shop faster

[viral flicker]

I have 44 cubes left Sawai is the only left if get her will I be able to get musashi later

[winter drift]

When I collect mail rewards with my oil past the normal cap, I lose all the rewards, including gold. Is this normal?

I recently had my ingame inbox full and prompted to claim all, and when I did, I completely lost 200K oil and gold

[wind hazel]

they are collected into your storage

[wind hazel]

maybe yes maybe no, i'd just skip this banner entirely if i were you

[viral flicker]

I am a waifu lover musashi comes at December right

[winter drift]

Where can I find the storage?

[wind hazel]

maybe

[wind hazel]

under mail tab, there's mail, storage, and archive

[sharp token]

what is the ratings of UR cv now?

[winter drift]

ooooh okay, thanks a lot

[wind hazel]

implacable>the rest

[sharp token]

excluding implacable

[wind hazel]

what i said

[sharp token]

shin,haku,amagi(cv)

[storm heron]

is it fair to one shot harby with helena?

[spring bolt]

It will make more sense to rate comps instead of solo ship
Yorktown 2 kear comp for light and med
Russian comp for med and light
Ijn for heavy and med

[wind hazel]

why wouldn't it be

[storm heron]

cuz it's 🎲

[wind hazel]

so?

[sharp token]

well i was thinking about who's am putting in my cv fleet, got them three

[late flame]

it depends on what you are trying to do with said fleet

[storm heron]

is there a sidegrade to the purple he mk6?

[coarse heron]

Not really

[torn salmon]

Does biskos cerrtificate also works for u-556 meta?

[spring bolt]

Gold he 3x381

[storm heron]

dang yeah, it has more dps and about the same rld, can be +13 too

[wind hazel]

that is the intended use, yes

usually people ask whether it works on bis Zwei

[inner delta]

it need to be +13 to be worth it

even then its not worth

[spring bolt]

It's more like BB gun version of saiun

[inner delta]

ya but you do need it to be +13

[storm heron]

I see now. I don't need it anymore though, I can one fleet harby just fine with only 1 +13 mk8

the rest is +11 mk6

[torn salmon]

Thanks

[tropic tusk]

how many dis do i need? 6?

[storm heron]

I'm a boomer now

[coarse heron]

as many as you want

[tropic tusk]

how about this?

[spring bolt]

You meant mk7 right? Cuz mk8 is shitty purple gun

[tropic tusk]

ok thx

[strong tartan]

mk8 is alaska gun

[storm heron]

oh yea the rainbow one

huh feels like a deja vu

[spring bolt]

He was talking about BB gun tho

[strong tartan]

oh

[ocean herald]

Has anyone gotten at least 1 of these prints? I made 40 runs on T5 and didn't get a single one.

[torn salmon]

Rainbow tempesta and gun imagine

[spring bolt]

Anyway, in most cases you don't +11 mk6 nor +13 3x381, as mk7 is a direct upgrade and relatively easy to acquire.
Good news is gold plates in +11 mk6 is refundable

[storm heron]

not easy to acquire when event rng is bad

[storm heron]

[spring bolt]

I think I got a few, but didn't really pay attention to it. You won't really want to use tempesta ships so don't worry about it

[ocean herald]

I would like to know if anyone has ever had at least one of this prints?

[ocean herald]

Can you check, you have it or no?

[sharp socket]

it drops, but its rng so just farm more

[ocean herald]

It’s just that for such a number of visits on any other map I’ve already received at least 5 pieces

[opaque gate]

is PR4 the best PR series? and how strong is hakuryu

[ocean herald]

If it's drop, can you screenshot your prints?

[tropic tusk]

i have been running i think roughly 40-50 runs i only got like 5

[sharp socket]

its just rng, dont try to see patterns where there is none

[tropic tusk]

i am just not lucky i guess

[spring bolt]

I have 9

[ocean herald]

then I’m really shocked why I haven’t gotten a single one in 40 visits

[inner delta]

bad rng

[spring bolt]

It's normal

[storm heron]

my reload is 22.8, 23.02, 23.02 but like half the torp on third airstrike missed when fighting nuggets using the mog comp

[ocean herald]

in 6 years this has not happened in 1 event

[spring bolt]

It's rng, so it's normal

[wind hazel]

increase it until it sync with your mogador stab

as in increase RLD, think it's too slow on your timing

[storm heron]

huh I was using 20 rld, maybe because of the vits

[inner delta]

mine is 22.84 with 16

and it works

[dusk maple]

22.7-22.8 works

[storm heron]

does airstrike jam each other?

cuz if they do then we can assume that 23.02 + whatever the jam is the upper bound for mog

also I tried anti-EM commands on mog and it kinda works (?)

[spring bolt]

Yes, they will, so probably make one of the 23.02 slightly faster and see how it goes

[pure oak]

Is this event the only time you can get those pirate cats?

[thick venture]

how do i use strategic search in opsi?

[tropic tusk]

wt is this for? or its just useless unless i complet opsi

[inner delta]

yes

[tropic tusk]

or are they just points

[inner delta]

convert to ticket

[tropic tusk]

nice

[storm heron]

I can make it to 23.01 by changing xsb3c to sb2c

[inner delta]

do it

[storm heron]

[spring bolt]

What carriers are you using btw?

[storm heron]

amashiyuu

2 tenrais, 2 vits, 2 junkers, 2 ryuuseis, and 1 xsb3c or sb2c

0.2s + jam from ama to haku difference with my current sync

[plain saffron]

Converted to vouchers sp you can use in voucher shop

[late flame]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Operation_Siren#Reset

[plain saffron]

That's all, that's why you don't miss that much if you can't defeat hard arbiter

[tropic tusk]

oh its auto then its fine

[grizzled wraith]

What are secrets ticket and where do I use?

[unreal rover]

Are the pirate meowfficers unique or are they bugged?

I had Kidd and Bellamy from last year, and when I collected the milestone rewards this time I didn't find any in my cattery despite having free space.

[unreal rover]

They are "currency" to "purchase" asmr recordings

[spring bolt]

Unique

[unreal rover]

You either get 2 for free every month, or purchase them for cash in the shop afaik.

iirc, you need 3 to buy one ASMR record

[grizzled wraith]

Where do I use - I got a free one

Oh - so I can’t use

[unreal rover]

Memories > Secrets > tap on the lock and you'll be prompted either to use tickets or pay gems

[plain saffron]

you get 2k/1k cxoins instead

[storm heron]

goodbye gph, my mog did not survive twice when running solo nuggets even though she survived once in assist, even though the anti-EM commands suppose to procc the heal or the shield, so might have to dump mog for eldridge

[dusk maple]

i use them together cuz otherwise i lose 2 vanguards before the 3rd airstrikes

[torn salmon]

what does completed.7 mean

[unreal rover]

Thanks

[nimble leaf]

Is this ship good? (Why only a cannon 😔)

Okay

Is the Halloween event worth it to pull?

[tropic tusk]

not if ur new player

[nimble leaf]

So what should I pull?

[torn salmon]

every tempesta is worth pulling wth

best addition to the game

[tropic tusk]

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

[unreal rover]

Can you provide some additional context?

I don't see anywhere the label "completed" in the pictures I provided.

[nimble leaf]

I do have this

[torn salmon]

i tried to unlock Janus and got that reply

[tropic tusk]

u dont pull this banner

just wait for UR banners

[storm heron]

idk that's definitely not the definition of worth

[nimble leaf]

Ok

[tropic tusk]

but do daily pull in light

[unreal rover]

As a hoarder, I haven't unlocked any ASMR and I just keep piling up tickets.

I'd pass that question to someone else who has.

My understanding is that after unlocking, you go back to the previous screen and hit the play button

[torn salmon]

funny enough it doesnt unlock

maybe you need the ship at a certain level

[storm heron]

me watching as new players asking whether a ship is worth after spending their last stash of cubes (I can't interfere, it's a cannon event)

[unreal rover]

Nah, you certainly don't need the ship.
Maybe you need to download the voice.

[plain saffron]

can you show a screenshot or something

[storm heron]

you need 3 secret ticket or smth right

[torn salmon]

yes

clicked unlock 3 times

[plain saffron]

likely desync, restart game

[storm heron]

Unfortunate, try repair assets

[plain saffron]

you prob already bought it but game doesn't update properly

[storm heron]

since 7 is 10 - 3

[torn salmon]

hrmm so it bugged out and not unlock but in reality it did

[plain saffron]

just desync, happens all the time, relogin fixed it

[storm heron]

is the desync caused by memory leak?

[plain saffron]

no

[coarse heron]

No, it's caused by netcode

[plain saffron]

client think you don't have the secret
Send command to buy
Server said, wait you already have it
that happens

[barren tapir]

yes, im more than halfway to 1. but it is indeed annoyingly rare

[storm heron]

I got 1 in the first try

[wary timber]

the event is trolling me for sure. i still cant get any demi cannon parts

[storm heron]

second if you include clearing

[tropic tusk]

it has insane low drop rate ur not the only one

[plain saffron]

the drop rate for gold equip bp is very low

0.15 per roll or something i don't remember

[wary timber]

lower than T6 Amity drop?

[storm heron]

0.5% iirc for akagi and kaga

[plain saffron]

don't know the ship rate

[barren tapir]

at least it also drops repair kits will always need more of those

[storm heron]

so no it's not lower

[barren tapir]

werent akaga 0.75% each i remember reading it somewhere

[wary timber]

cuz the damn ship dropped on my 2nd clear along with 2 cannon parts..

[plain saffron]

#gameplay-help message
my bad, it's way higher

[barren tapir]

does this mean 0.15 blueprints per run, per siren/boss fleet, or 0.15% chance per

[plain saffron]

wait no that's lower isn't it

#gameplay-help message
#gameplay-help message

[storm heron]

sometimes that happens, sometimes you clear 55k and still have to buy hiei meta from the shop

[barren tapir]

oh yeah this averages to 0.15 prints per sortie then (3 elites 1 boss)

[plain saffron]

glad to know my memory is working for now

[barren tapir]

exact average of 0.1485 print per sortie in that sample size not counting the deviation listed

i suppose this mean you will on average need 100 sorties per complete gun, or 16000 oil each

[plain saffron]

one day i'll finish my image analyzer

[barren tapir]

the t6 gun will need 24500 oil each, on average. assuming full fleets/oil cap cost

[plain saffron]

didn't they made this full name instead of scrolling before or i'm hallucinating?

[barren tapir]

on that happy note, if the t6 ship drop is hypothetically 0.75% like akaga (i have no idea about this) youll get an amity copy every 32667 oil or 133 runs on average

133 runs also happens to be just about enough event currency to buy 3 amity copies

[torn salmon]

reminds me i still need to grind for akagi

[storm heron]

kaga, houshou, yuudachi

[wary timber]

gotta add Isuzu too

[torn salmon]

tfw you have this itewm to retrofit the cutre wolf girl but dont have the ship

[forest palm]

[quartz jungle]

You can farm for her in 15-1 now, Houshou you can get in 15-3 (a bit hard admittedly)

[quiet wraith]

Hello guys I got some URs and I don't know who to MLB next: Amagi, Ulrich, Kronshtadt or Mogador. What would you recommend?

[atomic abyss]

amagi without question

[forest palm]

definitely amagi

[quiet wraith]

Okay thank you guys 👍

[umbral wadi]

Guys I pulled my first UR!!

[plain saffron]

why are you pulling permanent banner

[umbral wadi]

I’m new

I need characters don’t I?

Is that not the right thing to do?

[atomic abyss]

it isnt

a UR will be almost useless for you for the foreseeable future

[umbral wadi]

How so?

They’re a high rarity

[atomic abyss]

all ships, UR or otherwise are extremely weak if they are not max limit broken

[umbral wadi]

Oh

[atomic abyss]

for URs, their duplicates and bulins are very very limited

even for players playing for about a year

[umbral wadi]

So why pull on only event? What’s the point in that?

[atomic abyss]

you only pull on UR events

[plain saffron]

because event is limited

[umbral wadi]

Aren’t events rare?

[plain saffron]

they only rerun in 2 years+

[atomic abyss]

events are ongoing 3/4 weeks a month

[umbral wadi]

Oh

[plain saffron]

at least 1 new major event per mont roughly

[umbral wadi]

So I should save my cubes till a ur event?

[atomic abyss]

and UR events are particularly rare
about 4x a year for new ones, excluding reruns of old ones

and it takes 400 cubes to guarantee a UR

[plain saffron]

if there's event, pull until you get all ship you want/need/good ones
if no event 1 light banner daily

[atomic abyss]

so it is better to save cubes for those

the best ships for a new player

are all mostly low rarity

[umbral wadi]

Right

[storm heron]

you will understand the feel and start to save cubes once you fail to pull a UR

[atomic abyss]

why? so you can max limit break them easily

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

example of a starter fleet from the guide

[torn salmon]

you get the ressources for free each week to limit broke them

[umbral wadi]

So I can’t use my first UR? 😦

[atomic abyss]

she will be worse than even a decent blue ship that is max limit broken

[umbral wadi]

Boo..

[plain saffron]

unless her name is musashi

[atomic abyss]

rarity is very misleading early game

[storm heron]

musashi 4 star probably better than mlb nj on heavy?

[atomic abyss]

and all the permanent URs arent particularly relevant outside shinano

[umbral wadi]

I got shimazake

[atomic abyss]

oh, you got the worst of the 4

[umbral wadi]

She’s so cute tho

[atomic abyss]

all the more to ignore her for the forseeable future

[plain saffron]

you found her purpose, secretary

[atomic abyss]

just use her as your secretary if you do find her cute

[storm heron]

[umbral wadi]

I’m using unicorn as my secretary..

[atomic abyss]

all URs are good/best, dont get me wrong

she just isnt high prio for limit breaking amongst the perma URs

[torn salmon]

poor girl needs a loadout

[storm heron]

not usable so

[plain saffron]

you can have more than 1

[torn salmon]

not useable how?

[storm heron]

I have 10 fleets which she does not fit in since I have better options

[plain saffron]

imagine not using her cross fleet

[storm heron]

cross fleet need items?

Dangit maybe that's why harby was a lil bit hard

[plain saffron]

tbh idr

[storm heron]

[torn salmon]

how do you have 10 fleets when theres only 6 1

[storm heron]

I was about to scrap her since I have no docs but then her skin re ran

[plain saffron]

why do you not have documentation

[torn salmon]

you gotta collect them

[storm heron]

as seen in my f2p gems I avoid buying dock space to save up

[torn salmon]

not scrap them

[sharp socket]

CF should take ship stats into consideration so maybe rainbow spam for CF?

[forest palm]

iirc the Cross Fleet barrage itself is dependent on the active fleet's Flagship

[storm heron]

Huh I only have 8 fleets after I think about it (1 mob opsi, 1 crossfleet, 1 pvp, 1 meta showdown, 2 farmer, 1 lowcost, 1 hard mode)

[white agate]

Are all little ships safely scrappable?

[atomic abyss]

well

[forest palm]

you can scrap children ship they offer nothing past collection %

[atomic abyss]

little chesh is a cope back up for an AA carry

[sharp socket]

i dont have a spare lv1 UR with crossfleet to test this so uhh

[torn salmon]

one does not scrap anything, unless double

[atomic abyss]

but they do not have fleet tech

[storm heron]

except amagi chan

[plain saffron]

120 them incase they somehow get fleet tech in the future

[atomic abyss]

[sharp socket]

well they might, but they might not also

[atomic abyss]

just WW if you need them again

[plain saffron]

help how do i choose 5 ships in WW

[storm heron]

in the future with better equips, maybe amashiyuu chan comp can one shot nuggets

[sharp socket]

basically just scrap them if you’re severely low on dockspace

[torn salmon]

you play hard mode with 1 fleet ?

[sharp socket]

for daily clearing yes

[forest palm]

Sandy, Illustrious, and Cheshire all have children ships that can be used in extreme cases, which is funny

[plain saffron]

always 2 but only 1 fight

[storm heron]

cuz the other one is whatevers

[sharp socket]

triple lusty is a meme for w15 support fleet but it works iirc

[storm heron]

supp fleet and AA

[atomic abyss]

it does work yes

[storm heron]

is there anything to do in this game?

[plain saffron]

reply your momotalk FleetChat commander

[storm heron]

idk, even if I chose the "bad" options sometimes they are still happy

like the dialogues are illusion of choice

[torn salmon]

you dont say

[plain saffron]

it's like story

can someone help me test something, 1st get a new tempesta ship
then finish the chat
then get her to 150 affinity then see if there's new chat
repeat on 200

[atomic abyss]

there is

iirc

according to mega whale rhadnar

[plain saffron]

so the reqs are right but somehow it's not shown ingame, why yostar

[torn salmon]

finish the chat what now, does that mean ?

[plain saffron]

to get more chat you need to oath them

[boreal wagon]

the requirements are unlock char, 100 aff, 150 aff

[torn salmon]

ahh

[plain saffron]

ouh 100 not 200

[boreal wagon]

technically there could be ones that unlock for just oath or 200 aff, just no chat uses that yet

[plain saffron]

there's also some timegate right

[boreal wagon]

all group chats are time gated yeah

[plain saffron]

how long until they catchup on all ships

[tropic tusk]

that oil that cost 800 will it come back?

[boreal wagon]

idk if we will ever get all ships in it

[plain saffron]

and how much writer did they hire

[boreal wagon]

it usually comes back every event

[torn salmon]

i will never get the console ships sadly

[tropic tusk]

so its only every event

[boreal wagon]

if im not mistaking it for some other shop item that is

[tropic tusk]

how about this is it a daily thing?

[late flame]

The $0.99 is daily

[plain saffron]

isn't the name Daily

[torn salmon]

generous 1 cube

[tropic tusk]

only 1.2k sadly

[storm heron]

isn't one dollar buys you 60 gems?

[tropic tusk]

how about this whts the limit on this?

[late flame]

cost increases each time you buy it

[storm heron]

per day rite?

[tropic tusk]

[boreal wagon]

i believe it resets daily yeah

[tropic tusk]

man i need more oil

[storm heron]

also don't spend gems for oil

[plain saffron]

where's my note

[tropic tusk]

i never did but i will on this event i want those cannon

[torn salmon]

400 gems for 875 oil thats ouch

[plain saffron]

higher if higher lvl

[boreal wagon]

the amount of oil u get scales with your commander level

[plain saffron]

500 + commander.level * 3

[tropic tusk]

im already 123ish level

[boreal wagon]

yeah i was commenting on the other persons message

[storm heron]

that's pretty high for a new player

I'm only 132

[tropic tusk]

well i almost play for a year see my join date

[plain saffron]

140 is when you get old

[boreal wagon]

200 is when u retire

[plain saffron]

they'll raise the cap to 500 by then

[tropic tusk]

i have been playing this game everyday non stop

[storm heron]

I like how I can have +13 mk6 with 0 damage

[boreal wagon]

i dont see the relevance but

[torn salmon]

114 and playing for 3 or 4 years lol

[tropic tusk]

looks like u been slacking

[torn salmon]

by any means what does increase lvl ?

[tropic tusk]

nothing behond 100 ? as i recall

[coarse heron]

the only thing commander level does beyond like, 95, afaik, is increase how much oil you can buy with 50 gems
literally useless

[dusk maple]

soft cap for coin and oil storage increases with levels

[tropic tusk]

dont oil cap increase on guild shop?

[torn salmon]

yes

guild can research it

[tropic tusk]

mine is still low

[dusk maple]

yes guild also gives extra cap

[tropic tusk]

level really increase?

[vocal sigil]

max oil cap is 21k if you're max level so it does

[dusk maple]

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

[storm heron]

huh that's higher than mine

you have good guild

[tropic tusk]

so ur telling me my oil can go even higher

[coarse heron]

no sense in buying oil softcap increase

[tropic tusk]

yea my guild is max research

[storm heron]

no sense in buying anything from guild

[coarse heron]

dock space increase

[storm heron]

i have pr ship mortgage to pay

[tropic tusk]

how many times can u buy oil increase , coin , dock from guild?

[storm heron]

I'm at 2250 guild coins or smth

[coarse heron]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Guild#Tech a lot

50 times each for oil and gold

[tropic tusk]

wow im missing alot of oil space

[coarse heron]

cat box is probably the most useless one cause who pays for cats

[dusk maple]

catmaxxers

[torn salmon]

Shinano is best, with Biso

[crisp tree]

whose better as first UR mlb, shinano or shimakaze?

[tropic tusk]

they should update canteen and merchant to go higher level tbh

[tropic tusk]

normally shinano

[torn salmon]

i have 23k guild cash and no means to spent it

[coarse heron]

in order to save 300 gold per cat, you have to invest 63,000 gold
So to pay for that investment, you'd need to buy at least 210 cats

[torn salmon]

for that you dont have the space

[dusk maple]

well, cats take millions of coins

[crisp tree]

alright. shinano it is then, unless i suddenly get another UR

[torn salmon]

cat fort should not give an attention ping when it is empty

[coarse heron]

put cats you plan to feed to later better cats in there

[uneven tiger]

is this a safe skip event?

[tropic tusk]

if ur new player yes

[coarse heron]

it's got full rewards so you should do it for points, but you can skip pulling ships

[storm heron]

skip pulling yes

[torn salmon]

all my top cats are lvl 30 already

[tropic tusk]

but still do light pull daily

[storm heron]

but not skip doing events though

[uneven tiger]

Gotcha, thanks, yeah i meant skip pulling the ships

[atomic abyss]

Shinano without question

None of the other perma URs take prio over her

[keen mural]

i've got a question about the last reward for new players, the choice between hood,sandiego ecc, is it an item that you can open at any time or you have to pick one as soon as you complete the last quest?
Because i want to see the new medal shop choices before choosing the reward.

[atomic abyss]

You can pick at any time you want

[torn salmon]

medal shop is the worst tbh

always the same it feels

[atomic abyss]

Let me guess, amagi server

[frank pulsar]

it rotates once a month wdym

[torn salmon]

i have all thoose ships

[atomic abyss]

Amagi server has had awful rotations recently

[torn salmon]

Sandy

[keen mural]

nice, thanks

[torn salmon]

takao, atago, eugen, mineeapolis duh

[storm heron]

duh amagi

[torn salmon]

i need her and yuudachi

[keen mural]

well medal shop rotation is fixed based on ship class

[atomic abyss]

Yuudachi isn't in medal shop

Lol

[torn salmon]

sadly

[atomic abyss]

Back to the poi mines

[tropic tusk]

isnt she in wararchrive?

[late flame]

6-4

[atomic abyss]

Lol no
6-4 only

[keen mural]

i got yuudachi in 20 runs of 6-4

[torn salmon]

huh

[storm heron]

ratio, I got all the ships in 1 run

[atomic abyss]

Well and 6-4H I guess

[torn salmon]

normal or hard ?

[keen mural]

both

[atomic abyss]

Both normal and hard drop her on the boss node

[late flame]

i didnt bother farming her since her retrofit item also has to be bought from shop

[storm heron]

if oil is scarce but core data is plenty, hm 6-4 looks fun

[atomic abyss]

Yuudachi was the best DD in the game for a while so

[torn salmon]

you could win it at some event

[late flame]

i'd rather do w13h

[storm heron]

wait yeah you're right

[late flame]

that event and its rerun is long gone

[storm heron]

I don't have new orleans yet too, maybe should start w13-4 soon

13-4 should be like a walk in a park compared to 15-4

[atomic abyss]

You mean bunker hill

[storm heron]

[bronze prawn]

I have 70k oil stored up

[atomic abyss]

NO is 14-4

[storm heron]

ender has 600k or smth

or who was it with almost full oil storage

[late flame]

whatever this aint the channel for it

[storm heron]

yeah I think I will sleep now

good morning gph

[zenith wyvern]

no way i pulled New Jersey again after I mlb'd her

do i just retire her?

[late flame]

yes

[atomic abyss]

Flexing belongs in #trophy-room

Do whatever you want

Retire for spec core or use as a trophy

[tropic tusk]

or just do this

[storm heron]

or you can keep one new jersey

[zenith wyvern]

didnt mean to flex, just wasn't sure what to do

[storm heron]

in case there's an EX stage

[zenith wyvern]

but wouldnt she be useless not limit broken?

[tropic tusk]

yes

[zenith wyvern]

so for max value just retire. rip

[storm heron]

maybe her skills would be useful? I know a lb0 ship that might deal heavy damage

[atomic abyss]

[zenith wyvern]

what ship might that be?

[storm heron]

though I'm not sure, gotta confirm if lb0 musashi is indeed that strong since she is just reliant on her barrage

[atomic abyss]

Look

[late flame]

just go sleep

[atomic abyss]

You don't need a 0lb ship unless you want to top leaderboards for EX mode

[torn salmon]

keep all 3 NJ

[atomic abyss]

It's just cope as fuck

[storm heron]

this

[zenith wyvern]

well it is done. very painful experience

[tropic tusk]

u will get used to it

[zenith wyvern]

fair enough. its just that i used all my early game bulins to mlb her

[torn salmon]

yuudachi is resisting my luck

[cobalt rapids]

L rizz

[torn salmon]

[lone knoll]

should we get another stronghold to spawn next week?

[vast sparrow]

I got 1.5K Cores...Royal Fortune or OxyTorp for my Shimakaze

[plain saffron]

yes

[vast sparrow]

Oxytorp ig?

Chats been dead lately df

[atomic abyss]

Neither

Shima will die in most cases with an oxy
It doesn't even buff her damage by much

Your 3 pairs of shells + indep first

[zenith heron]

Oxytorp on a shima seems too much... unless tea torp to mag torp auxi

[vast sparrow]

Indep got her and got two pair

[rapid grail]

oxytorp is pretty niche, pretty good in its niche
atm only relevant use for royal fortune is lvl 90 sub weekly cheese

realistically speaking, there should be other gears that you would want as a priority over these two in terms of progression

[opaque gate]

is there a way to choose what pics will appear on loading screen?

[forest palm]

no

[opaque gate]

zamn so i have to hide my cp every auto forever

[torn salmon]

royal fortune helps youn with thew daily sub raid lvl 100

[atomic abyss]

Honestly quite a waste of cores

Especially right now you can just use amity

Tho she does deal less

[tropic tusk]

wts that

[atomic abyss]

Or ya know
An actual sub fleet

[torn salmon]

she helped clear the lvl 100 though

[tropic tusk]

oh yea tempesta can use as sub

[elfin hollow]

Why do my ships glow red?

[inner delta]

on where

[wary timber]

the minigame can crash your game lmao

[torn salmon]

siren infected Kappa

[elfin hollow]

Just in a general sortie.

[wind hazel]

they are receiving offensive buff

glow blue defensive buff

[keen owl]

Is Every good cat?

[tropic tusk]

playing sirius room also crash game

[weary gust]

Personal dorm always crashes my game, and then on the reload from the crash works. Every time.

[undone plover]

decent cat
if u are new she will most likely be your best for a while

[vale kite]

I have no idea how it came back lol, context:
I have started playing around fubuki's run and got her then stopped playing uninstalled for a while, came back got the game no saved data so i started again and paired it with my BlueStacks client as well.. then realized I'm out of storage on phone so uninstalled again. Now i installed it again and my old account is here LMAO..
Guess double the grind for me hehe

Can anyone explain what might have happened there? Like how did the account come back?

[remote yarrow]

Does it really matter? You got your account back

[weary gust]

Don't forget to bind it.

[south sequoia]

fish fleet is archer flasher alba right

[soft raft]

could just be a skill effect, tho there's plenty of ships that might do that

[weary gust]

Could also be they're low hp.

[elfin hollow]

Oh thanks.

[glass basin]

is it worth it to spend materials to make seattle gun/triple 155mm kai? Or should I keep using belfast gun
don't think I have materials to make the rainbow 152 any time soon (and I need to make mk7)

[wind hazel]

if you're attempting w14 then 155kai is good to have on your BB

[glass basin]

I see
How about for general use as CL main gun, which one is better/more worth

for chapter 13 thru 15

I'm still using a bunch of belfast guns from back then but I assume they ain't cutting it nowadays

[hollow gust]

just 155

[glass basin]

belfast gun or the kai version

[undone plover]

for CL u want kai version
for BB aux u want normal 155 except in ch14 u want kai version

[tender lotus]

What type of armor enemy is suitable for Alsace to fight?

[tame jungle]

barrages most favorable vs light, with her having an edge over other URs in short fights mostly due to her preload

[dusk maple]

all armours, change the main gun accordingly

[tender lotus]

Ah i see

1 more what's the best bb gun for heavy type?

Is Georgia gun still the best option?

[tame jungle]

just use your champy gun

[dusk maple]

457mm and 460mm are niche use cases, just use champagne gun

[tame jungle]

esp if you're running helena just use champy gun lol...

[sharp token]

does the new ship l2d skin cost only 980?

[tender lotus]

Niche use like what?

[sharp token]

while the other is 1180?

[tender lotus]

The meta fight?

[tame jungle]

in cases where you're not using champy gun

[dusk maple]

end game helena-less fights, ex stages, too niche to recommend

[undone plover]

Those are dynamic skins not L2D
Only owari is L2D

[tender lotus]

Ah so that's it thx

[sharp token]

what's their difference? movements?

[tame jungle]

dynamic mainly lacks the interactivity that l2d has

[sharp token]

glad i've asked, i almost buyed

[tender lotus]

Honestly buy it if you can afford it otherwise (especially if you're f2p) don't

[undone plover]

Dynamic is essentially like a looping gif
U can rent some out and try them

Also dont buy with your f2p gems

[vale kite]

Sorry if it a dumb question but where should i spend them?

[undone plover]

Do /gems in #bot-spam

Tldr is 3rd dorm slot, dorm 2nd floor
Then dockspace

[white agate]

Is it bannable if I keep farming c1 for ap?

[tame jungle]

Why

[forest palm]

you'll get bored, and no where fast

[white agate]

Ap gain to do later c4 and get resources from 2 catnodes

[tame jungle]

Why would you get banned

[wind hazel]

it's only bannable if you are using macro to do it

[white agate]

If I keep getting ton of ap it seems weird?

[white agate]

Macro would not be able to do akashi shop tho

[wind hazel]

tru

[white agate]

So its safe?

[wind hazel]

yes...

[boreal wagon]

if the devs had any issue with it they simply would remove the ability for you to be able to do it

[forest palm]

C1 farming means a lot of micromanaging, which is rather boring

[white agate]

True

[wind hazel]

not sure if you wanna do C4 later though

i thought the idea is to do c3 or c5 not c4

[forest palm]

should be

[sharp token]

having problems on some of the ships audio, what should i do?

[keen mural]

harbiter of storyline don't reset if i leave to repair?

[wind hazel]

which ship

[sharp token]

hakuryuu

[wind hazel]

try repairing asset

[sharp token]

already did, didn't work

[torn salmon]

Owari skin is L2D though

[pure oak]

If i don't farm this event, will i still be able to gear my tempeste units?

[sweet delta]

Yes but why would you not farm

[torn salmon]

good exp

[pure oak]

I'm just curious since this is my first tempeste event

[sweet delta]

The cost of gearing them without farming the event is very high

[torn salmon]

you would need a lot of their canon guns

[pure oak]

Oh damn, is it because their weapon can only be bought from the core shop?

[torn salmon]

and bonus items

[pure oak]

Got it, thank you a lot guys

[glacial jasper]

Will I regret sacrificing my excess bulins for medals?

[torn salmon]

you get two or t´hree each week with missions

but why waste em

[split umbra]

How many copies of the cannon to farm for this event?

[atomic abyss]

only 2 tempestas need the gun from t5
but there arent any alternatives for that gun
so get at least one

[spring bolt]

0
tempesta ships are collection level
t6 weapon is worse than core data one, and you will probably get 1 or 2 during farm t5

[tropic tusk]

if i hit the pity but i dont press it does it goes behond 400

[atomic abyss]

no

[tropic tusk]

sad

[spring bolt]

iirc until you claim the pity, the number stays 400

[split umbra]

Ah okay I see, how do I know which ships require those cannons?

[atomic abyss]

check if they're main fleet, vanguard or sub frigates

only ganj and sao martinho are main fleet ones

so only they need the old demi cannon on t5

ofc - assuming you even use them

they are a fat load of dung

[spring bolt]

by the time you want to level them, you can just use proper ships to carry them and don't give a shit to their performance

[split umbra]

Oh okay just wondering what they are used for

So mainly cannons are only applicable for Sailing Frigates?

[boreal wagon]

only frigates can equip them yes

[split umbra]

Alright got it thanks!

[sweet delta]

only frigates can equip them, and frigates can only equip them

[torn salmon]

dont they all come with cannons already o0

[sweet delta]

Blue

[torn salmon]

meant the equipping

[atomic abyss]

they do not

[fleet urchin]

should i use dive bombers or torpedo bombers

[atomic abyss]

which ship are we even talking about here

[soft raft]

heavily context and ship dependent (since some ships can choose from different plane types in the slot)

[fleet urchin]

on graf zepplein

[atomic abyss]

torp bomber for the 3rd slot - specificially - ju-87 d-4

[soft raft]

TB since otherwise double DB is pretty slow

[sweet delta]

Ju87d is Ironblood only good DB or TB

So use it unless you have a spare wyvern or spearfish and choose to grief her fighter slot

[fleet urchin]

i have barracuda and aichi b7a

[fleet urchin]

aight

[ornate narwhal]

When can I use the coins and oil from my mailbox?

[sweet delta]

Any time

[dusk maple]

who's the 3rd backline for soyuz/nyakh team?

[hollow gust]

Depends , usually Amagi or Yorky 2 tho

Although for light I def prefer kearsarge instead of Soyuz

[agile flax]

I just realized that Royal Fortune is the only Tempesta ship that doesn't have her own unique augment gear (or any augment gear). Maybe she'll receive one in one in a future 'augments' update?

[cerulean musk]

how to get this?

[primal folio]

is there a list with recommended talents for meowfficers?

[hollow gust]

Type slash cats in botspam

[unique lantern]

need to farm exp for a dr, aside from shima i need 2 more, who should i pick? if it doesnt matter imma just take atago and takao

[tame jungle]

Just do whatever

[unique lantern]

none of those matter in any comps? aight then

[tame jungle]

Watarase is pretty ok

[hollow gust]

Pick 3 ships that aren't maxed level , then run them in the event stage

[unique lantern]

maybe i should cut back on those face researches, been getting 8+ daily in the past week

[kind needle]

In pr's 1-3, the ships I ain't owned are Izumo, Ibuki, Nep, Azuma, Cheshire, Drake and Odin. Did I miss any good ships?

[hollow gust]

It's just coins ,get more

[hollow gust]

Izumo , ibuki , azuma , Cheshire , drake

[kind needle]

ehh? Izumo and Ibuki got better?

[unique lantern]

ye, but ive had 200k around 10 days ago im bleeding coins from spamming face researches and coining avp

[hollow gust]

Ibuki is better then shima and izumo got bumped a tier

[kind needle]

ohh, it's bcoz of aug?

[hollow gust]

[kind needle]

but I'm alr at w14, is the ones you mentioned still needed?

[unique lantern]

oh nvm i tried to get da vinci with 100k or something of those (didnt get her )

[hollow gust]

Ibuki is still really strong, Cheshire is useful for w15

[ornate narwhal]

Could someone help me with aux for them pls

[stuck sand]

Is West Virginia, Colorado and Maryland worth retrofitting? I have an overload of materials for BB/BC retrofit items

[sweet delta]

for collection percentage

[unique lantern]

double on cvs

[ornate narwhal]

That’s what I did, but I only have 1 gold one

[torn salmon]

i always go for double catapult and white shell and fire control center on bb

[kind needle]

so, those 2 after I got napoli?
Since I'm working at pr 5 (brest, skipping ruppy), then shimanto, then napoli, and neither those 2?

[stuck sand]

Damn, I’d rather just save the items for a good retrofit then lol

[torn salmon]

gimme dat yuudachi

[ornate narwhal]

I don’t have white shell or fire control center and idk what catapult is

[torn salmon]

this

[ornate narwhal]

Oh I’m so stupid

So what should I do for uni?

[torn salmon]

pennsy does have the white shell though

[kind needle]

I don't plan to get Flandre, Felix, Hinden, since idk how they work and ain't secured to d30. could someone explain what they do?

[ornate narwhal]

Wait what

[ornate narwhal]

Oh didn’t know that’s what it was called

[unique lantern]

those but in gold ye

[ornate narwhal]

I don’t have enough core data

[unique lantern]

and yuumi gets double catapult as well once you got them

[sweet delta]

flandre: gold Alsace
felix: worse CB but with ASW
hinden: best vanguard DPS

[stuck sand]

Is yuudachi at least worth farming for🧐 I got alotta those resources too

[tame jungle]

Only for collection%

[ornate narwhal]

Don’t have any more

[torn salmon]

if you are bored, you could farm for greedy shop neko

[unique lantern]

i mean, yuudachi is nice if you dont have the good cls yet , she carried me to w12 where i started stalling for months and now i have a bunch of URs and dont need any dds except mogador anymore

[kind needle]

so... are those pr worth it? (Ik hinden good but she's prob around d20ish on me for a while)

[stuck sand]

Ig I’ll farm for her to waste a lil oil I have like 20k anyway

[tame jungle]

Farm event instead

[torn salmon]

is that meta to dump DD'S ?

[ornate narwhal]

Wait so what is unicorn supposed to use?

[kind needle]

crate luck ig

[unique lantern]

cls are just so much better, theres some use cases for shima and laffey II i guess

[torn salmon]

2 catapults prefered

[ornate narwhal]

I used them all already

[ornate narwhal]

I don’t have 4, only 2 which are on enti

[torn salmon]

save up on them

[unique lantern]

i guess not, but you could check your blueprints, maybe you have enough from research already

[grim siren]

Is this a good cat to lv up?

[sweet delta]

depends on the starting talents

[torn salmon]

its already lvl 22 lol

[elfin hollow]

Does anyone have a chart of ship type placements in fleets?

[ornate narwhal]

Does penn want double purple white shell?

[sweet delta]

it's a 9 pointer at best

hopefully it didnt start with the ironblood...

[grim siren]

Ahh... It did...

[sweet delta]

then it's an 8 pointer at best, so Drake and Every beat it

[opaque gate]

prince of wales good?

[torn salmon]

what is a nine or eight pointer

[cobalt rapids]

the number of points that the cat will have invested in good talents at lv30

[torn salmon]

she is fine how she is

[ornate narwhal]

I was just asking cause I just got another one so if it’s better I can give her 2

[sweet delta]

gold cats can start with 4 talent points, level up to get 6 more, so the max for gold cats is 10 points. And those points should be for good talents

Drake and Every are around the 8-pointer level

[ornate narwhal]

Also for uni does oil tank and torpedo bulge work?

[grim siren]

I'm kinda tempted to feed her to Every

[sweet delta]

bulge does nothing, only AVI auxes

[cobalt rapids]

that justice isnt good and vang cats are bad in general so feel free

[ornate narwhal]

2 oil tanks are the only stuff I have with AVI

[cobalt rapids]

use em

[ornate narwhal]

Ok

[ornate narwhal]

So do these builds look good now or do I still need to change stuff

[soft raft]

Extremely not worth it

[cobalt rapids]

except a few pieces here and there its fine

[ornate narwhal]

Like what

[cobalt rapids]

like entys fighter should be replaced with a hellcat or vought

[ornate narwhal]

This is all I got, no vought and only 1 hellcat on uni

[undone plover]

use the corsair

[sweet delta]

hindsight 🧵/🧵

[undone plover]

it is what neko meant

[ornate narwhal]

Ohhhhhhh I’m so stupid sometimes

[cobalt rapids]

and laffeys gun with this if u have

[ornate narwhal]

?

[cobalt rapids]

no its my bad i forgot vought is only on wiki

[ornate narwhal]

Ok so anything else?

[cobalt rapids]

uh

open a thread and we can continue there

[ornate narwhal]

How do I do that?

Help me build my team!

[keen sable]

Not if you can't enhance it

[dusky vale]

are all the event stages this time also single clear to finish the stage

[cobalt rapids]

yep

[keen sable]

So 3* on first try

[boreal wagon]

not just this time, assuming they dont backpaddle, itll be every new event going forward

[dusky vale]

oh ok

[knotty dome]

would something like this work for w15-4 safe autosearch?

[spice phoenix]

can i use brennus as budget hindenburg??

[hollow gust]

No?? Just use something else

[atomic abyss]

what goose said
DPS is far far far worse
brennus is about as tanky as double CA gun Hinden too
if you need DPS you need, you should consider looking to alternatives
if you need a tank well, neither would have fulfilled the role to begin with

[spice phoenix]

thanks

[sweet delta]

balance the fleets more, like swap guam and anchorage, and the boss breguets with mob wyverns

[ornate narwhal]

What should I buy?

[stark quiver]

gold plate
and
ap box

[ornate narwhal]

Ok not the development stuff?

[stark quiver]

blues i wouldnt take, and you get a lot of purples from playing opsi normally
i guess u can get the purple

[ornate narwhal]

Ok also how do I put out one of the ships if they’re on fire

[spring bolt]

you mean the fire in combat or this?

[ornate narwhal]

Fire in combat but idk wat that is either

[forest palm]

does Tolls of War even affect Portland who mostly lives off her stats

[spring bolt]

fire on your ship in combat has 5 ticks, one tick per 3 seconds, it's gone after that unless the ship was ignited again before it ended. fire extinguisher will decrease 1 tick, fire chance and fire damage
that thing means your ship needs a repair in a blue dock

[sweet delta]

most fires in combat expires after some time

[spring bolt]

your ship with low health will have a smoke visual effect but it's not fire and has no damage, just a reminder that your ship has low hp

[ornate narwhal]

Oh ok

[knotty dome]

so this should be fine?

[sweet delta]

AP for alsace and switch guam and laffey AA gun and then ok, and btw the Swap button can swap two ships along with their gear

[knotty dome]

ok thank you

[glass basin]

what's the best non rainbow five bomber for graf

[left cedar]

Tenrai

for her skill u can use Junker

or depending on wut u are using her, Bf109g

[glass basin]

I was asking about diver bomber non rainbow

[forest palm]

the best you can do is a Helldiver, most in between that and the Tenrai are shit

[left cedar]

Tenrai or Helldiver in lack of it, no secrets, everything aside Helldiver or its expenssive for nothing or just shit

[glass basin]

So just the purple one

[left cedar]

here we go again, why people like to understimate Purple in AL

[glass basin]

Well it's not that we underestimate purples, but for other plane types there are numerous gold options good for different things
So I thought it's the same for dives

[left cedar]

yeah, some purples are just to fucking good, and devs have to make a rainbow option to "win"
Mk7 and Tenrai are some of them

Toolbox still w8 for a upgrade
Hoaming beacon as well

[ornate narwhal]

Does comfort in the dorm make affinity increase faster? Or just give extra exp

[dim summit]

is Indiana boss, mob, or generalist?

[vale spindle]

Generalist

[slow fox]

Final Fancy consideration

[sweet delta]

What does it consider

[slow fox]

Uses invultime instead of HPboost to account for nondisjunct eHP buffs

[sweet delta]

How long per barrier?

[slow fox]

2s

[sweet delta]

#gameplay-help message close enough

Is it sailing components, toolkit, and what?beaver/550

[slow fox]

Toolkit and fruitkit

[sweet delta]

By stats alone (yes gear/augment) and no skills, what percent would she be?

[slow fox]

106%

[atomic abyss]

an actually tanky frigate?

impossible!

[slow fox]

Instant marry

[sweet delta]

So the 2s invincibility is like assuming Portland dies in 40s

[atomic abyss]

damn thing is tankier than brennus

[slow fox]

something something evarate etc etc

Brennus ; 0.9932850333649538 ; 0.28152259940763935

[ornate narwhal]

What do u get from doing operation siren?

[atomic abyss]

materials for gearlab, which is used to craft some of the best gear in the game

[sweet delta]

Which seems on the extreme end like wichitam/repum

[ornate narwhal]

Ah ok

[slow fox]

EVARate only: 115%
Barrier only: 123%

[sweet delta]

Essentially the only source of gearlab materials, the biggest source of gold plates, and the only way to get meta showdown ships

[left cedar]

dahell, 134% portland
woaw, on wut content ? bullethell ?

[slow fox]

OpSi General

[slow fox]

When equipped with special "Mebot Life Support Package" equipment: 2653.19%

[sweet delta]

There's no way an opsi boss can kill the barrier in 2s though, except if it matches Strength's slam

[left cedar]

Mebot coping for UR Toolbox with 700HP and 4% heal

[sweet delta]

I think 2.5s is more reasonable

Pending testing™️

[slow fox]

For 20s total barrier:

155% eHP

So depending on boss makeup

eHP anywhere from 135 to 145 perhaps

[sweet delta]

So like
Extremely high DPS boss (barrier is broken instantly): 115%
Very strong boss: 135%
Idk boss: 140+%

[ornate narwhal]

What should I grab from here?

[eternal basalt]

Everything

[sweet delta]

I see that instant/quick barrier break is where the HP boost model would be better

[cobalt rapids]

try to get everything but logger>t3 mats> tokens first

[eternal basalt]

Reset is close so you HAVE to reset that shop

[sweet delta]

try to unlock opsi reset

[ornate narwhal]

What is logger? And is the purple things tokens?

[ornate narwhal]

Huh what’s that

[slow fox]

Nah. Because then it pretends that the EVARate uptime also has to dig through the extra HPBoost.

[cobalt rapids]

1. t3 mats, 2. logger, 3. tokens

[slow fox]

Probably allows space for another EVARate proc if total barrier uptime is like 2s. ---> 118% eHP

[ornate narwhal]

What does the logger do?

[cobalt rapids]

allows you to search hidden zones which gives resources

[ornate narwhal]

Oh I haven’t been using them

[cobalt rapids]

but yea try to unlock opsi reset like sushi said
it will give u a better shop and access to voucher shop

[ornate narwhal]

So what should I buy from here?

[vocal sigil]

when opsi reset does AP reset too? wanna know if I should save the 200 or if I can just spend everything on the last day

[cobalt rapids]

which means follow red exclamation marks

ap is set to 200 on reset day

[vocal sigil]

thanks!

[ornate narwhal]

Also doesn’t all that stuff expire when it resets?

[eternal basalt]

Also everything

[ornate narwhal]

I don’t have enough purple stuff

[cobalt rapids]

ure on old opsi shops which means they have a 3 day rotation with a random assortment from a fixed pool
which means u have to clear the shop every 3 days to clear the pool ( and ur target good items)
but these worries will go aways after u clear chp4 from opsi because u unlock monthly reset which in turns unlocks the monthly port shops aka no more 3 days worries

[ornate narwhal]

Ah ok

[eternal basalt]

I generally keep ap bbehind for a full dailies run, then reset and get a new set of dailies

[ornate narwhal]

Ok I cleared the Ny shop…time to grind to clear the other ones

[keen mural]

is there a way to disable the message in Opsi?
i mean the useless ones like when you step on a plate or something like that

[cobalt rapids]

go to settings and disable TB guidance

[keen mural]

oh thank you so much i was going insane

[barren tapir]

so reading up...fancy is decent?

[sweet delta]

pending testing but that's what ive been saying since day 0

[barren tapir]

what is the condition for this?

[cobalt rapids]

clear chapter 4

[stark quiver]

finish story mode prolly

[sweet delta]

finish enough opsi campaign which is somewhere during or at the end of chapter 4

[icy mist]

Is the map t5 even dropping this cannon prints? done like 20 times a not a single drop

[cobalt rapids]

rng

[sweet delta]

only 20

[icy mist]

In t6 drops every run atleast 2 here not a single one

[barren tapir]

i already unlocked arbiter but the shops still look like what sharkbait posted - will they change on the next reset or?

[cobalt rapids]

yea u have to wait 1 reset

[barren tapir]

aight ty!

[sweet delta]

does T5 have 2 or 3 elites?

[barren tapir]

3

[sweet delta]

so we are all just suffering for an unknown reason

[foggy kettle]

Am I missing something or is going to gear Tempesta going to be a nightmare?

[keen mural]

i already dropped 15, but since i'm new im not gonna pull for ship, doing it mostly for the event shop

in t5

[glass basin]

is shouhou a decent secondary healer in chapter 13 (if no aquila perseus ryuuhou volga and such)

[sweet delta]

just don't use a secondary healer

[versed forum]

should I get iris gear box in medal shop? is it worth it

[sweet delta]

only if you need it to craft rainbow AA gun or champy406/50

[undone plover]

imo get it from coin shop if u need it

[sweet delta]

imo medals are aplenty

[glass basin]

just solo unicorn enough? for lethal

[forest palm]

[left cedar]

Semi Healers are a option, but Volga or Aquila for now ... but they just have a real use in W14 or 15

[forest palm]

do I run a full fleet, or just run Uni + DDG

[atomic abyss]

For?

It works for SP

[forest palm]

nah for T6

trying to figure out if it's worth the 400 oil extra oil to run a full fleet

[ornate narwhal]

What’s the most efficient way to clear operation siren, should I kill all the mobs or just boss and whatever I need to clear the stage

[stark quiver]

kill everything with a symbol on top

[sweet delta]

press autosearch

[ornate narwhal]

Huh what symbol

[atomic abyss]

both of what they said

enter maps with green/yellow/red symbols on top
autosearch them

[left cedar]

my SP are really waste of oil, but idc
FdG/Agir
Neko/Hindy

[sweet delta]

you haven't unlocked auto search yet so just go kill the yellow/orange ❗ on the minimap

ignore the other mob fleets

[ornate narwhal]

Ok

[left cedar]

i think u have to specify, cuz some dailly missions u have to kill blue ships
u can specifically jump/ignore blues in Hiddens

[ornate narwhal]

Should I kill the bosses?

[left cedar]

iirc Op.Si campaign or Clssified have blue ships as well

promoted Pawns ? yes u have to

[uneven girder]

Which ship should i pick in the ur exchange if i have none of them?

[atomic abyss]

shinano

[uneven girder]

Okk tyvm

[barren tapir]

id prioritize story as much as possible to unlock autosearch for everything because doing it manually sucks

[ornate narwhal]

I’m confused, there’s still a treasure chest in the area but I cleared everything

[undone plover]

multiple coords can spawn in the same map

[ornate narwhal]

But I only have 1 upgraded team, so would it still work?

[ornate narwhal]

Do what do I do?

[atomic abyss]

focus on story
follow the red "!"

[sweet delta]

ignore chests, do the story

[ornate narwhal]

Will auto work if I only have 1 upgraded team

[undone plover]

yeah u can auto but they might die to the bosses or "promoted mobs"
just do like sushi and ender suggested
clear story for now
can do the chests later

[ornate narwhal]

How much more story do u need to do? Also does it matter if the other teams die?

[atomic abyss]

clear chap 4 at least

[ornate narwhal]

I’m at the beginning of chapter 2💀💀💀

[undone plover]

if u have 1 strong fleet in campaign use the same fleet in OpSi and dont worry about the other fleets for now

[undone plover]

it is not that hard tbh
if your ships are levelled well u will manage it
for most of the maps even if they die u can leave, heal and come back to fight again

[dusky vale]

if im doing a hidden opsi node and the auto search ends while there are still enemies, does that mean the enemies remaining dont give any rewards

[atomic abyss]

yes

[barren tapir]

yes im still using only 1 fleet for everything in opsi, unicorn will keep you going dont worry

[ornate narwhal]

Wait I have auto…but it doesn’t work

[dusky vale]

you dont have vision on anything

[undone plover]

click this and use recon

[dusky vale]

yeah, it basically reveals the whole map permanently

[undone plover]

if u cant use it in a zone u will have to manual

[ornate narwhal]

Tysm

[barren tapir]

manual movement at least ^ i still do partial auto searches if recon is on cooldown (ap cost) cos it skips a bunch of button presses with end battle screen etc. move to a place with targets then auto, repeat as necessary if you want to save ap and recon isnt 0

[grizzled sundial]

How good is Felix ? Should i spend coin on her large research and ditch the small Agir research ?

[undone plover]

focus one season
if u are on season 4 do agir
and generally avoid large research for gold ships if u can
for the rainbows u can take it if no better options

[atomic abyss]

ignore felix

[undone plover]

felix is a good tanky DD, mainly sees use in ch14 i think esp if u dont have better options

[icy mist]

Like i said t5 have a bug or something not a single drop in 40 runs while t6 drops like crazy

[atomic abyss]

it's just rng

[tame jungle]

congratulations you just found out what rng is

[icy mist]

Rng 0.0000001%?

[tame jungle]

sample size

[undone plover]

are u sure u are actually running T5? also double check your depot u might have them and just didnt notice
if still 0 then yeah like the others said it is bad rng even if quite unlucky

[atomic abyss]

8 in 50 runs here

it is bad i wont deny

[tame jungle]

which cl gun was the one that had a bonus when used on DDs again? it was the german pr6 one right

[atomic abyss]

yes

[forest palm]

I have 41 must be a mix from the previous event

[atomic abyss]

wasnt it on t6 in the previous tempesta event

and in the shop too

[forest palm]

das what I'm saying

[icy mist]

I got one from the last event in shop now i need another for Ganji

[barren tapir]

low drop rate = extremely high variation on drops. i highly doubt it's bugged, likely you are just on a bad luck spree. hopefully not one that'll affect your pulls :p

[grizzled sundial]

I finished 60 tempesta missions , only have 8 bp . What is the drop rate for these gun

[forest palm]

we call that a placebo

[barren tapir]

that is actually the expected value, since the average is 15 per 100 runs

[hollow gust]

That's why people say farming for gear is a scam, what do yall expect

[barren tapir]

**assuming gold bp drop rate is same as previous events where the rate was tested in large sample sizes

[atomic abyss]

i mean goose

[barren tapir]

~1.5% per elite, ~6-6.5% per boss, boss has ~50% to drop 2 instead of 1

~0.15 bps per run

[atomic abyss]

there is literally no other way to get a main gun for the 2 IXm at the moment

[barren tapir]

to be fair it's not too bad as long as you arent on the extreme unlucky end of the bell curve

takes ~16000 oil per gun. since you only need 2 until at the earliest, next october, this feels reasonable enough.

granted, it ought to be added (hopefully will be?) to the core data shop once this event ends.

[atomic abyss]

12 pounder is in core shop
old heavy cannon in this event shop
the old demi cannon was in last year's event shop

[forest palm]

just ignore Frigates, simple

[atomic abyss]

which is, really fucking weird

im still amused at the fact that fancy outtanks port kai

[barren tapir]

i mean ye it is a bit weird, there should be a guaranteed one available somewhere. but the rate isnt too bad considering the number you need and the oilcap it has, imo

[soft raft]

they're both kinds of jank at the same time

[atomic abyss]

speaking of port

what was her fleet tech again?

[barren tapir]

AA

[soft raft]

HP and AA

[atomic abyss]

the americans strike again i suppose

thank fuck for houston having eva

[stark quiver]

more aa for guam

[grizzled sundial]

What is everyone favorite cross-fleet barrage .

[late flame]

#al-general exists

[grizzled sundial]

Yes , but i need input on the practical of cross-fleet barrage if you ever use one , as these barrage differ from each other .

[late flame]

i wouldnt bother too much with crossfleet

[grizzled sundial]

Which is why i ask if you ever use one , which one you would use , i tried to avoid the question of the best cross-fleet and more on what people think about specific barrage .

Hardly you can avoid using cross-fleet barrage when you have the like of Vanguard , Shinano and Amagi CV .

[coarse heron]

Best cross fleet is Percy heal

Actually if you don’t plan to sortie the cross fleet fleet, it probably is as long as the fights last 25 seconds

[grizzled sundial]

Well , i keep clearing T6 with only 1 fleet and the other fleet just sitting there doing nothing so may as well use some extra cross-fleet barrage .

[tender lotus]

IndepKai is one of my top pick crossfleet

[grizzled sundial]

Retrofitted independence ?

[coarse heron]

I’m using a 16 oil mob fleet for T6 so I’m pretty sure it can’t 0 ammo the boss

[barren tapir]

for a newer player would it be better to 1:1 t6 or full fleet it?

[late flame]

full fleet

[forest palm]

1:1 should most certainly be doable

[coarse heron]

Low cost fleets are for people who don’t need to level up ships

[tender lotus]

If you can't 1:1 just full fleet

[late flame]

build exp and fleet tech

or affinity if oathing everyone

[barren tapir]

i can definitely 1:1 just a question of exp vs less oil for the blueprints and event point
