could do either to be honest
Is there a way to turn these pieces?
👌 thx
do they know?
is it worth to use sr bulins to retrofit san diego?
im still new and dont have many bulins
depends on what point of the game you are
prolly not then
oh no then, she is better for late game campaign stages
i see
in case i had my SRs mlb i could go for it tho right?
oh and another question, is she any good without retrofit?
yes but only if you craft her augement
Is the character even that good? If she’s not like I get I’m missing a unit I may never get again, but if I can get blueprints and gear boxes then seems better imo
and between crafting hood's unique augment and san diego's which one should i go for?
probably Hood's since you're actively using her
i see, thanks
let me put it like this, the Blueprints you can get from the shop represent maybe a few days worth of research at best
You will miss an unit that you will never get again for sure
but again we are still 4 days in
How is Dido muse as an aa boat? Being a muse ship, does she have any particular shenanigans or is she a straightforward level,gear,skill and go type of gal?
her gear should be straighforward
as an AA platform I think she's at best maybe a bit above average for a CL but nothing really notable
oh yeah there's also Little Cheshire I guess for AA
Oh that's right, she exists.
isnt lil chesh cracked for AA as an elite
if i just got my first tenrai but i still have a few prints available in the shop, do i still buy them?
even if she's cracked for AA, the enemy may crack her first
i say yes, you want at least 2 and the extra bp accelerates aquisition.
i ended up using 3 on the regular
i doubt theyll have second tenrai before they finish pr4
I'm gonna need 5 at the current rate
in that case do i work towards the bf109g, twin457, or ply gun next
yeah i skipped 3 so i was able to stay at 4 while i was coining mainz and drake
5 tenrai 
Did we have a UR fighter before la-9?
2 are gonna be perma sitting on my level 70 ranger
no
i ended up only needing the 1 plygun the 2nd one just ended up as iced up bling yo for musashi
I'm really committed to low cost farming at this point
i wish i was good at the game
when you become god, you come back down to uplift the low rarities. Blessed be the cheeks 
only crush, doubt that this low cost has been long started
it's because they're at crush you know they've been used a lot
had a double take,
"the fuck? these aren't retrofit skins
THEY ARE NOT RETROFITTED"
😂
take a look at the limit break levels
oh yea btw, should i reroll a cv cat with rookie officer and rookie mech as a starting roll for ace
isn't that like the ultra oldschool way for farming pre oilcap?
yes
This one but imagine it’s the base levels
So I did 20 builds and manage to get all 5 Collab units plus 1 darkness and haruna dupe... So I don't need to pull anymore right?
uncapped a ton of ships
tech grind at its finest
im just tryna get ace to get 40 total cv rld from cats
you had one already right?
yes but if momo was the last holdout then you just wasted cubes
just the cheap dailies
i had one with just rld skills
ace, mech , chief
tryng to make this one the same
Anyone know if there's a reward for Limit Breaking the Collab characters?
no as in there's no reward for MLBing the characters outside of the obvious
Okay thanks
Cool, not gonna use the gold bulins on them then
What's weird about the coin count?
it's really low
Looks normal to me.
i mean they have 300k im sure eveyrone looks like theyre dead broke to them
pretty sure ty is not as veteran as in having all backline tech
just 21k coins, yeah no
~20-30k is what I keep around unless I'm saving up for the start of a new event, then I'll go to 100k.
my coin count is 17k 
the tech grind does things to my acc
i feel rich whenever i have more than 10k 
I don't know how you guys manage to stay below soft cap, I don't go below 150k unless I hit pity on a UR event
biggest coin sink is research
not even tech grind 
rerolling cats when I almost hit cap
I don't go above 150k unless I want all ships first day
i grind a lot, but also spend a lot
i’m staying at a consistent 40k coins
How many months do you guys average for a research rainbow equip
i havent even done any gear research
Cognitive or blueprint which is better really

that doesn't help since if I told you to reroll 2 of your cats, or construct a pr ship, you will stay at 20k consistent
let's see, after about 4 and a half months I'm on 65 La-9 prints
wait u can reroll cat stats?
I'm about to beat 9 4 how hard is chap 10
that's not with full gear focus the entire time though
1 ur print per day if not unlucky
Also I haven’t fucked with this much, but his important are these cats?
don't to that if you're new
no see talent no see good cat
im like mid game
you should be at least finish all important tech to start worrying rerolling cats
yea
reroll good/perfect cats
not just any cat
finishing important tech takes a lot of time
you could do cats on the side
ill show u guys what i think my best cats are and u tell me if they’re good
1 event spark and it's jover though
i have 10k coins and a dream
make a thread if u have lots of pics 
eh it's alright, doubt many will be familiar on how difficult it is, it is very dependent on a lot of things
more importantly u should farm event first then push ch10
guys, so, Nagato-meta, better alone with no other IJN or paired?
with no ijn
also cheeky, what stage are u farming with this
ill just send my takemaru for now
T4
alright thx
you just have it constantly farming for the whole day?
welp rip my pvp and meta showdown gears
ok as a general rule u should only only care about BB/CV/SS cats
not the whole day, morale can't keep up with that even if I don't use HELPs
at least the ones worth min/maxing or rerolling
well a majority of the day i guess?
not even a majority tbh, up time is like maybe a 3rd of the day being generous
i might start doing that
since im on break
so reset?
a 3rd of a day is 8 hours
I knows there like a gear guide, but it’s kinda slim. Is it better to just look up gear for specific characters?
how is it slim?
what gear guide are you looking at?
if it has flame/mountain its a decent base
The one on the GitHub thing I believe
do the same cats get different inherent bonuses?
flame/hull talent i would say
mountain is campaign talent
every cat has different base talents
Should I be buying specialize or general blueprints?
do you know how little it narrows down
like if i got another takemaru wll the inherent bonuses be diff
no, but the talents are different
also why not wyvern on ranger?
oh ok
Also I was looking at something difffernt. The gear guide is very in depth
the boss doesn't actually move that much and conveniently stops when ranger launches
plus speed really and the need for single target damage
do you have multiple copies of the lowcost fleet to bypass morale issues cheeky
not with this set up no
read the /cats guide
do it in #bot-spam
if u have questions open a thread otherwise this will get spammy 
for farming havrs in a week, is it better to use a low cost fleet?
the thing about T3 farming is thta I could just run Cassin or Downes and use a rnager/langley/hermes that's less than level 34 and toss them everytime morale get's low
with that set up I need to use an extra dorm slot and the uptime is basically halved
and I really don't wanna pour resources or free up dorm slots for another set to bypass that
wait what why lowcost for hvar
so uni and some 2 ships + one of 3 ddg
since i could now play the game on mac i got around 13 hours a day
no
oh shit the fleet reqs huh
Unicorn plus one vanguard preferably
60k saved oil is prolly enough?
D3 cost is 35
u can do it in 20 oil which is 43% less oil used 
maybe?
depends how many u plan to get
hold on let me do some maths
okay so with 60k oil and at 230 oil per run you're looking at 260 runs
realistically as much as i can get in 70~ hours of farming
problem is if u are planning to low cost with uni morale will also gate u
well this is where low costing has it's benefits
time to prep 2nd and 3rd unicorn
there's more than just Unicorn to use
yea thats my biggest problem rn,
so its time to employ the random ship + random ship 1:1 strat
get houshou (shouhou?)
not who I had in mind
perseus
also save HELP tickets @stark quiver
u want ~300 for that oil if u lowcost
volga and zuihou coming in clutch
ah perfect i have exactly 300 helps
what's a help ticket? 
high eff logistic plan
there was a 5th word but idk
combat 
oh ok ye
yo literally what is the point in having the fleet formation sometimes being premade only vs actively selecting it on the spot
HECLP actually, but we omit the C...
what other options are there cheeky 
for 1:1 D3
for HVAR low costing?
also I didn't know york2 was in a week?? really?
yes 
original run was 2 weeks
all reruns are lite = 1 week
Aquila, Zuiho, Volga, Ryuuhou, Honoka, etc
Basically anyone who can sustain
some of these may be a bit lacking on damage for the choice though
I mean, in a week, next week
all ~120 level right?
can you get exp in opsi for unlocking ships in the shipyard?
yeah, I have used Honoka at 100 for D3 clears but she's probably the exception here
i usually run the UR bb + tank
oh... it is not announced yet
it could be sometime in january
we dont know yet
just prepping cuz we are new and missed og event and want HVARs 
Do you have a source about Yorktown II rerun? Cuz next week is still this collab
wait what yk2 next week?
pretty sure he was asking.... cuz we were talking about it
manjuu nephew?
nono I was just confused because these fellows said "in a week", but they didn't mean it's coming in a week
yk2 probably not this year but you never know 
D3 low cost shouldnt be much slower right? cuz crossfleet should speed it up?
so if I have 100k mail oil how many hvars can I get
honestley not really, at least for the mobs
oh u do the boss as well with the low oil fleet? 
because unless you have preloads that need levels a mob fight usually lasts around 20 seconds
yuudachi UR with moga wep should be considerably quick
it's the elites that mainly take that long
yuudachi is expensive
and i guess for vanguard options it is basically the ddgs, laffeyII, maybe sandy?
10?
so 60k oil probably enough for 4-5 hvars
70~ hours of grinding also prolly enough
and 1:1 all the way
it is when u cycle, perma farm and use HELP tickets 
use Leander 🏃🏼♂️➡️
idek know how ill fit in the time
if it reruns during finals week im honestly dead
also for refference, full fleets will only net you 224 runs with the same amount
U could just not care
It rly doesnt matter much
i want my hvars
your face when hvar gets added to gear lab right after the rerun 
I mean hvars are for what, 30s challenge mode? the only use case is for meta showdown right
you know what's funnier? if they fixed the droprate bug
BiS anti-light fighters
so only light meta showdown
U would use them on temperance as well I would guess
i wanna do stuff so yea
And command module challenges 
command module?
The monthly challenges
but yea i wanna get faster cm clear times and better anti light clearing stuff
like I said, I highly doubt there will be another rerun before the end of the year, let alone Yorktown 2
yea, coping for jan
im wondering, how do we get data cores
do hard mode daily
Should I be buying specialize or general blueprints?
rainbow > gold
Also with this shit is it just dependent on what I need?
No its just dependant on what you use to clear the stage, they all give the same reward within the same tier
its probably late jan/early feb next year right
following typical trends
and then a UR around christmas as well
well that's less a source more an educated guess

any of these ships worth building?
carl maybe not just for tech
ok, thanks
Nub is dd fp
ah ok, i'll raise her too then, thanks
well if we wanna go there Royal Oak, Mikasa, Magdeburg, Kirov, Voroshilov, Le Terrible, Guichen, Marseilliase are all good tech
lol
Lv 120 Stat Bonus wise
- Voroshilov +1 CL EVA
- Guichen +1 CL EVA
- Mikasa +1 BB Hit/ACC
- Pola +1 CA Hit/ACC
CA hit is not higher priority than FP
Thanks, Mikasa too then
Eeeh, yeah I suppose
how do I get commemorative medal?
Can affinity be reduced by losing a sortie
You lose affinity when they sortie/attack when at 0 morale
Complete the Chippy Medal Crafter collection in the Collab menu
nice ty
does anyone know how to donwload Azur lane in pc
one i download it in Apk it says the game cant find
Use emulator like bluestack or ldplayer
well i did but the problem is it says the game cant find
wdym? what did you do with the apk
i downloaded the game with bluestack then after that the game cant find
Is the game visibly installed in the settings?
no
ask in #tech-support
ok
Find Blustacks in Bluestacks
Use Play Store if APK isn't working.
First UR Exchange coming up, which of the four should i pick? new jersey, shinano, shimakaze, ulrich von hutten
Shinano > NJ == UvH > Shima
lezzgoo tyvm
PR5
At least Plymouth and Brest to be specific
how far are you on PR5
Hinden or second la-9?
Is my chapter 15-1 fleet good?
hello everyone, im farming affinity for musashi but the front line always takes the mvp, is there some ship i can use so that it won't get the mvp and won't die either
what map are you farming?
Musashi on mob, consider using Aquila and move yk2 to boss
vanguard mvp is the goal 
event
I dont have aquilla? Is she that really needed on that map?
use a faster firing gun on her
You'll have to give Musashi a faster gun
If you lack Aquila use Volga
what gun then
Purple Twin 410
I was thinking even faster than that
If you lack either maybe Zuihou
If not come back later
Noted. Thanks!
And yes you will need her
is it available on somewhere or limited
don't worry this is my PvP loadout
Cheeky PvP farmer
bullins won't farm themselves
one of these maybe
Nah you right, I gotta farm too
i do seriously recommend letting the vanguard mvp. It's more efficient in the long run
Is that mikasa gun
?
no
no the 305 is the mikasa one
That’s the slower blue ijn
mikasa gun is the weird circle (power plug...?) looking gun that you can only get from obtaining mikasa
Mikasa gun is the other blue
Is this good now? And should i equipt all of my support fleet with blue pancakes??
Umm wat
thats worse
i smell smoke
You misunderstood
Swap Musashi and Soyuz from the original
There is an imposter
ideally full pancake yea, but using skyrockets or purple fw instead is perfectly fine on support fleet
This?
Wrong ss?

Wouldnt it be better to also swap sandy and unzen 
Yeah
Yeah boss needs more AA
is there a setting i can turn on to only fight the flagship in 12-4?
Someone shd swap with Unzen
Hard mode yes
Normal no
Who is shd bro
shd means should
Don't worry, you'll end up with a lot of choukais, more than you want
12-4 is literally one of the best places for a player to sit to gain exp and coins
And you will come back there time and time again
oh cool
cod
it's the latest ive gotten in campaign cause Im getting bodied by 13-1 💀
That's normal
That's why you park your ass in 12-4
To get levels, do research, do opsi
like when i tell you I physically can't break through to chapter 13
It's normal yes
it feels like im fighting sans bro
that's because W13 actually requires you to think about your fleet comp and gear

13 is just... I guess Flowey level?
im ngl i have never used gear lab and i dont understand it
14 would be Undyne the Undying level
Aka don't go there unless you know what your ass is doing
you don't need gear lab gear for W13 but your gearing still needs to be competent, everything should be +10 at a minimum and ships at 115 at least
13 can still be brute forced to a certain extent
But that's with good gear
Not best, good
im struggling and all the ships im bringing are already 125
Probably have massive gear issues
Or lack of AA
then your ships and/or gear choice is shit
wait, is it better?
Not for normal use
May i get the link where ican build table like this?
hmmmm
both of those blue gun are pvp only on sushi
ah ic
https://azurlane.mrlar.dev/calculator/
And the superior version
so the purple gun is for general?
how is it better
You can actually check sync windows
The calc automatically accounts for skills and fcr/beacons too
probably ngl
im kinda stalling until i get some more relevant ships leveled up
yeah that's nice but in terms of just sharing a fleet build it's rather a hassle
what minimized view
i just tried it and works fine, thanks a lot!
I can't find the setting for it
Blue variants have pretty bad raw damage
Ultra compact mode and turn off dmg calculations
But yeah renhex tool cool for sharing fleets and builds 
Lars tool gives multiple options per gear slot tho so u can do high end > poverty gear rec 
it sounds nice but my technology-illiterate rear can't figure out how to do half that stuff right now
who should i research next? Daisen or Shimanto
Shimanto
Shimanto much more useful
interesting
is there no way to lay this out so you can get one fleet in one screen shot
I think if u zoom out it makes it horizontal 
Oh what an interesting server maint
what
They've been got by the ghost of maintenance
Nvm I did get got by the ghost
i guess it's related to your monitor resolution
is it also only possible to work on one fleet at a time with this
yes thats a downside of lars calc
There is a minimalist view
it's too bulky, needs to be slimmed down
yeah my thoughts exactly
I have it on minimalist now
imo renhex tool best for having alot of fleets where you dont need too much thinking of individual synergy, while lars tool is best for calculations and things that need more precision
also the settings menu is really overwhelming to look at
yeah, for my purposes of what I need a fleet builder to do this is really overkill and clunky
clearly just teach chat gpt to calculate reload
🫃🏼 chatgpt thinks nakhimov is a vanguard fleet
Chat GPT think Nagato Muse and HMS subs exist
Clearly we need to enlighten chat gpt
I have had some success with sync calc'ing on CGPT 
Why use cgpt when we have our own megpt
For fun
wonder if megpt will actually make dps chart with baseline portland 
Nakimov is inherently underpowered
I’m stuck at 21 for this, it’s not farmable?
it's gone from my mission list, try doing t5 over and over again
should i be fucking with gear lab?
focus triple 406MM if possible for my BBs?
wait where do you get the other resouces?
where is this from
i just started OpSi today actually lol
chat GPT, you can tell because it just makes stuff up like this
Underpowered?
I thought she was top notch?
it's a joke to this thing chat gpt cooked
Ohhhh loll chatgpt tierlists
how should I build my Howe and warspite metas? asking for a friend
Go to Kepler 452b
any good Aquila alternatives for W15?
Volga might work
when does the day reset? like? which time zone? i googled but it is wrong
0000 utc-7
In an hr
thanks!
Warspite Meta
ChatGPT cooked with this one
+13 fresh la9 or +13 multiple hvars 
Depends
HVARs for sure
You get more mileage out of 3 +13 HVARs if you're using them
1 +13 LA9 isn't gonna make up for that
implacable usually
Cat won't be ready for 2+ months still 
so like... akashi keeps sending me random things in the mail, am i dense and completing missions im not aware of or do we just get sent random things at random intervals
ah
It’s the former btw.
its if u spend or pat her
my ranger keeps dying on t4, is it because I don't haave enough tech
what crossfleet do you use, I use the same except the +10 twin 100mm on cassin
my ranger is dying to planes sadly
Alsace NJ Soyuz ig
on air denial? I use alsace soyuz amagi
4oil work on T4?
I think I was dying cuz stage was on lethal + single line
I was double lining and safe
I use this setup
is it because of musashi's 35s crossfleet barrage?
Musashi, alsace, soyuz, Kronshtadt, Shimakaze l, unzen
Yes the cross fleets do matter
How good does the 5 oil fleet hold against t4 on lethal
Didn't try it
I have 600 oil and a dream, which is about to be crushed
There's about 10 days of TLR event left right
yes
Guess I'm done grinding then, daily SP will reach 55k 
Btw 5 oil fleet works for lethal t4
should i continue to do pr5 after finishing ply, brest and harbin if im at like 40/50 prints for it
I have 12k coins rn,
Should I farm 12-1 for coins so I can do researches
Or do low cost for event
has erebus been proven to just be worse than ranger in low oiling, or is there some tradeoff?
Ranger has more HP
more hp, more aa, asw
just farm t5 is my suggestion, should be able to keep up with researches with oil income unless you're spending on a bunch of other things
namely cats 
do you guys regularly buy 15 cat box every day? or less
spending coins not throwing it into the bin
Erebus just costs more lol
no, cat casino is coin scam
From that alone it'll never be more oil efficient
her barage no good?
It's excellent when it procs
problem is it's what, 60%?
The issue is again, if your priority is low cost, is Erebus really the best option
I never got more than the free cat, 5 years strong
Erebus is more likely to proc than ranger anyways
just use Zeppy if you want a barrage bote
But that said Erebus has some advantages
I never buy more than the free 1
For one, Erebus doesn't care for siren BB snipers
She's light armour
You could also give her evasion gear if the concern is HE BB snipers
I usually give Erebus a toolbox because of how flimsy she is
since I couldnt get ranger mahans to work, I am open to change either to:
- Uni cassin
- Ranger ddg
- MLB ranger mahans
- Erebus mahans
Evasion is better unless you're fighting planes
also about yk2 and hvar farming, is 1:1 D3 farming with every single ship in my dock a viable strategy or does it need more ships/crossfleet to sit below oilcap farming
In that case, give her an AA radar
Need a BB for hard mode 4-4. Should I use this an excuse to level Nelson?
or should i just rotate like 5 fleets and oilcap farm until i get my desired hvars
I have books and bulin to slam her levels up
I found the issue in t4 is the plane nodes
use a CV with the other fleet
so I tried equipping erebus with double HPAAR to stall
What's wrong with Howe?
just use Howe, man
just go 3/4oil T3 or something, that setup is worse than the alternative
I wasn’t using other fleet loool ty
I wasn't lying when I said the gear requirements were high
As you can tell, I have been using BMs way too much
And that cross fleets matter
the only reason I can't follow that is literally the musashi lol
just do T3...
is 6 oil T4 not worth it?
You can if you need to
I believe T3 is easier to low cost
it's worse pt per oil if you go 6 oil
what's the requirement for T3?
which defeat the entire purpose of low costing it
lvl 33 ranger, 2 mahans?
im just using ranger cassin or ranger downes, swap whenever mood low
Hello all. Are you guys farming event with low oil fleet?
Am I doing it wrong since I am doing a full fleet farm of t5 for 480oil per 3 runs...
do you have 6 URs?
Musashi and hutten only
I am, but it's not something a new player should do
then no low fleet
I see thanks!
which ur should i mlb first, guam, mogador, vanguard or amagi
You're doing fine, they just flexing for some reason.
Need to see all your URs first and know how many UR bulins you have
i don't think low oiling is flexing
It's not, just a sign you have played this game too long
low oil sounds dumb when the shop doesnt even have that much to clear out
idk how that has to do with points you need to clear out
and its not like its a 1 week long rerun event with a bunch of stuff to get
amagi
so whats your purpose of low costing then
Trust me when you farm w12 enough you start to Hate farming anything else because it feels so much worse
low oil is better for coins pretty sure
you're farming for coins for low costing? 
the oil difference that went to t5 can go to 12-4 instead
No you low cost to save oil for more w12 farming
low costing is for event points, to clear the event with less oil so that you have more oil to farm w12 with
idk about exp wise since they say t5 is close to 11-1 for exp rate, but I can't care about exp when my cogs and coins are held at gunpoint
if you just want coins then farm 12-4
Amagi for sure
pretty sure with the same oil, you can farm 12-4 and event low fleet till the same pts and it will yield more coins than farming t5
it depends what you're getting from the event then
I mean if there's no benefit why all vets do that right?
it doesnt, low costing is time ineff but oil eff
so if you have time its better to reinvest that oil into high campaign eff maps
They aren't
they know something that we don't
you should find the reason yourself instead of blindly following what a small amount of people do
u could farm 10k or 50k pts while low costing the event, what matters is that ure getting more used oil at w12+ eff
I mean at first I didn't believe low costing worth, but then I calculated it at the tempesta event and it was indeed worth, but I didn't have the mahans to do it
but it takes alot of time so its not for every1
yess I can do 46 oil T5 instead of 40 with ranger, and cleared every single mob node and still clears

show your calculations in coins per oil compared to 12-4, and include time while you're at it
why include time though
include time to prove that its time ineff as we said ?
not everyone have 24hr in their daily life
ofc it's time ineff
I have 25 
I didn't say anything about it being time efficient
if i only have 1 hour of time a day to farm AL, time efficiency is an important stat too
then low oil is not for you
I mean sure, but how can I calculate time?
⏱️
use a ruler or what ppl use to measure time
measure how long you take each sortie like 20 times, then take the average and calc it
i have about 5meter in my day
people with huge buffer and with low buffer dock, people having slower internet and delays
im sure you know how to collect data for coin/oil ratio
I love how yall being sarcastic and just didn't contribute to a healthy discussion
That’s why averages exist and also why you include everything
it's because umi has already explained the reasoning
so everything after what he said is bullshit whining
idk if this is true, but when I was in asia it took longer for the fight to register
and i am here to turn that into a cesspool of turd 💩
mori you're not part of this, go be toxic elsewhere
450k oil in mail... never was oilefficient 
how dare you kick away my favorite mori forest
umi has already told you the reason why we do low oil fleeting
yet you wanna double down on the time when he already told you it is time inefficient
anyway id like to see your oil efficiency and time (in)efficiency vs 12-4
now as I'm in America, I can tap comission and dorm food and move from one node to the other faster. Idk if this is just my feeling or what since I never calculate it
mainly the oil efficiency though since i can estimate time efficiency
low oil event T3 data for Celerio :poop:
you say you have calculated lowcosting is more worth, so where are your calculations
more worth the coins yes
do you have data or is it somewhere in your head
is san diego's tactical learning worth the investment?
yes, but not for a new player
TLDR
Imagine you need 55k pts
- you can spend your oil in T5
- you can spend your oil in T4, then 12-4 for the difference in oil
2 yield more gold than 1
retrofit sandiego when you're somewhere around w13
just to double check, T-5 is the farming stage for the collab rn?
look forward for the calculations, hold on
TLDR for entire low cost convo,
Low cost = more time, but can save oil for w12 grinding
Don’t low cost if not much time
Don’t need a million numbers to show that
on paper it seems good, but as for whether how much better it is or even if its better than T5 and 12-4 is a different story
Go check the thread celerio
Can anyone help me build a decent team rn I kinda just throw girls i like on a team but I can't beat the story any more I've read the guide but I don't understand it
Who to replace with Musashi for w14 ? Ulrich ?
what other BB you have
is 12-4 more oil efficient than 11-2/11-1
Agir in w14 is kinda poo
or are you asking, which BB do you want to replace because you have Musashi now?
This
Pushing her to 120 soon and I figure she would be of more use
yeah kick UVH, but probably put FdG on mob team, let Musashi take on boss
Thank
any1 know how to get tech points?
Ply likely replacing her when I hit dev30
speedy sprouty botanist good for converging torps?
Guys is sub fleet a big deal? Im using Dolphin, Amity, Mary Celeste Atm, are they good choices?
it will become a bigger deal at the endgame
no. its an fp aux

Q: How do I get more fleet technology points?
You get fleet tech points by:
- Collecting the ship (~20%)
- Max Limit Breaking it (~45%)
- Achieving level 120 (~35%)
-Higher rarity ships gives more fleet tech pts .
-Heavier ship hulls also gives more fleet tech pts: CV=BB>CA>CL>DD
Side notes:
-PR ships give more fleet tech pts than normal but follow the above formula with development 30 replacing MLB.
-META ships are considered a separate META faction. They give same bonuses as their non-META versions.
-Collab ships, Muse and little versions of ships e.g. Li'l Sandy, Clevelad and Lena etc do not give any fleet tech pts.
-Iron Blood faction ships receive double the normal tech points compared to other nations.
For more information and exact amounts, consult the wiki

Hmm smth tells me i upgraded too far for lvl 37 commander
Been burning oil like crazy wtf
Don't use non-MLB UR ships as a new player, for the most part. They cost their full oil amount.
what is MLB again?
max limit break
she isn't maxed out
yeah, but thats just because i ran out of xp
i mean in terms of level btw, i havent limit break at all
Lb1 Musashi is better than Pennsylvania, right?
now that i think abt it, if i MLB then the oil cost goes down?
No, but they'll be doing about 200% more damage.
i see, dang
that's what most believe
so i guess i bench musashi until i get higher in level i guess?
No, until you get UR bulins to limit break her
I think sushi gets her second MGM on LB1
like all non-French BBs, yeah
Which isn't so bad for the purposes of not too late stages
So the new collab auxillary item...do bigger enemy easy to hit ? :/
limit break 3 times?
the hitboxes stays the same, only the visual
she's usable as a new player at LB1, but ideally she should be MLB
Because she doesn't have Fate Sim yet.
plymouth doesnt have a fate sim?
oh ok guess that means i get to stop farming her bps, weird tho
consistent places to get those high efficiency combat plan thingies?
being patient
they only have 2 sources and they're time gated.
OpSi map clearing gives you one times if anything, but patience yeah
you "earn" them by not spending them immediately and then you'll have them when you need them
be patient to get the item meant to quell impatience
didn't they give you 3 for the black friday missions
Like OpSi stars, not just clearing
ty~
Does doing 2x oil consumption also give 2x exp?
And 2x rewards
Basically just saves you time, doubles all costs and rewards, 2 sorties in 1
Very cool though
it's the equivalent of doing 2 runs, reward, cost, morale cost also
hi! any mini event i should do?
sure just do any, they are just for skin
treat them as daily mission, no need to rush, it's permanent
Let's ignore the fact that Vanguard is ascending and their levels lmao. I know faction fleets tend to be undesirable but I like them better that way.
Does Vanguard work with Implacable? I feel like I don't fully understand these two no matter how much I read their skills... there's a few characters like that honestly.
I'll fill the other slots accordingly if they do work together, but if you have suggestions I'll gladly consider them!
sure they work, but their best potential is often not together
they are both considered support ship
Oh that makes sense
Okay so, I like Vanguard a lot more so I'd probably get rid of Implacable. I would want a full BB/BC Main with Vanguard right?
So to throw some names up, something like QE, Vang, Howe?
QE is bad
I know haha, I was just saying some names for example's sake
What’s the fleet for, opsi?
he wants faction fleet for funsies it seems
Bosses in general
Bosses in general doesn’t exist
Campaign bossing is fundamentally different to opsi bossing
so assume meta fight and harbiter
Anyways, the triple BB setup works fine in opsi, but you’ll be struggling with campaign bosses
youd need some more ships first
Of course it also depends on what you have available
Yeah I have more, I was at first just trying to figure out how Vanguard worked
Hope she get a retrofit soon and upgrade to SR with new skill
Copium to #al-general
british fleet might be okay at anti light
Vanguard is very good support used to buff your already powerful damage battleships
S1 gives a 6s buff to your BBs when she loads guns
S2 is a reload buff to self and another general damage buff that’s additive with the skill 1 buff* (and crossfleet effects)
S3 is personal buffs
Minor correction there
i got U-410 from it, is she useable? Its an easy to get SS if one lacks any
Thank you, that's what I was mostly trying to understand. I was misunderstanding how her skills worked the entire time.
(i currently have more and better ones, too. So she isnt seeing any use anymore, but still)
oh yeah, newer ships do tend to have a wall of text huh
(just wait until you see kearsarge)
Oh I know... I have Kearsarge... I've not wanted to even begin to undersand her. Anyway, thanks again 
how does Kearsage hold up against other UR-BBs?
She has her own niche that she's unsurpassed in as a CV buffer
Great in light
was thinking of going for her next after Hindenburg
the best one is actually the Science Rules one since it gives DR2 prints 
yes, she is a BBV, isnt she
Kears is less niche and more niche at the same time
She sees more use in top conps but Hinden can more easily be put into almost any fleet
Kearsarge is weird compared to regular BBVs though, since she doesn't use Seaplanes but regular Fighters
we had a priority-ship guide on, well, who gets prio. Where was that?
It's FdG + Anchorage, then all of PR4 (except Marco), Plymouth, Brest then PR7
but kearsarge is The BBV
poor Marco. Thanks, i will, well, finish getting Hindy and then go for Anchorage, i guess
You could complete Harbin as well while getting Plymouth, and grab Shimanto with catch up
Anchorage is what, the best non-CB tank? still?
okay, easy to obtain
portland
I mean anchorage can be a better tank in some cases due to manjuu
In some cases Laffii can also be a better tank 
me thinks i botched my priority-ship-research. But then, it takes long enough anyway.
worst you did was slow it down
which doesn't matter as it's long term anyway
new PR is once a year, and it gets easier to finish ships as they get older
im nearly finished with Hindy, but what im missing are the 2,4 mil exp on KMS-Vanguard, so i suppose i can put that behind given i wont lose my progress
yeah like for example what I'm doing is finishing 90% of CDC for a ship then switching to another PR ship since I don't have prints to Dev30 them anyway, so why spend coins and cubes on them before they're usable 
yeah, i finished a few older ones already. The ones i did are Roon, FdG, Champagne, Marco and AvP
I mean you can, but imo might as well finish Hindy first
In the end it doesn't rly matter until you have the necessary prints
well FdG is quite usable up until 15-3 so that's fine
she'll be your best mobbing BB until you get Musashi (if you don't have her already)
not for Hindy. So she would just waste dock-space until i have
and i do have Musashi, got her a few days after getting FdG
also Roon is one of the better choices for PR1 anyway since you need Iron Blood tech points for later Iron Blood PR ships
im reasonably fine on tech that is from the big 4 factions. On that front, i can start all current Prio-ships.
less so on some other ones. Need more french and russian tech before i can do more from them. Wich is why i got Champagne
the most "useful" one is for u-410 since it gives you a submarine which you wont have a lot of as a new player. also iron blood tech points
what is the name?
the bottom left one in your pic
already started the science but will do that next
oh yeah I forgot the 410 one actually gives her as a reward
too used to them all only giving skins
where can i change background music?
You can't
i did that one first, too. SInce i had exactly 2 Subs when i came back to the game ^^ And between these, any third one was helpful
Best you can do is turn it off and listen to Spotify
the lobby one?
yeah there's no way to change what music is playing in game
where is the jukebox?
You either turn it off or swap to a shipgirl that has a skin with bgm yeah
spotify it is :)
That would Potentially be pretty powerful?
no
damm so it's a total meme gear
what even is the point then 💀
FP for your CA alongside fumo when that is applicable i guess
copllab gear is usually meme collection tier
It just increases their sprite size by a whopping 3% 
Even if it did affect the hit box I don't think the difference would make a measurable difference
So true, like Goldburn, ice crystal bomb, Tractor ...
that's why I said usually and not always 
I mean non collab gear is also mostly bad 
yeah don't you love the D aux
compare ratio between collab gear and good ones vs normal gear and good ones
If i retire common and useless ships , will my collection percent drop?
Since you are here. Imma ask.
Is my chapter 15 fleet good?
fleet 2 is not living
Any tips?
swap soyuz and volga and have her flag
do subs make a big enough impact in battles for me to actually bother using them?
is agir even better than something like anchor here
You will need them in later chapters
subs make massive difference
oh ok
fight where you take 0 dmg with subs could be fight where you take 50%+ dmg on later stages
like its actually insane how much easier subs make your life
They're a bit fickle though cuz you wanna time their summon so they don't die
tqtq
yeah if subs run out of oxygen in a W15 stage and have to actually surface, there's a good chance 1 or more will just die
how do i get the skill?
you upgrade the augment to +10
Hello, does x2 drops affects weapon skins droprate in event map?
its the same as running 2 runs in 1 so yes
Not increase the rate from for example
0.05 to 0.1
It rolls 0.05 twice
didn't play in a long time, is this the current event?
yes it is
what to get from core shop other that shells?
do I need to 3 star all the event stages?
there are mission rewards for doing it so ideally yes
independence
got her aleaDYT
another set of shells
Can i keep farm event point even my fleet have low mood ?
yes but they wont be happy about it 
Stop farming for a bit and then come back when morale is recovered
Put ships in dorm
which unit is using the equips from the circit minighame?
any Avrora server guild I could join? I am lvl 76
Hello all. What should can I do to resolve this?
#1246721562741178410 posts usually note what servers they are
just press confirm
would it be a waste to use series 7 bps on agir/haku
can't use the same ships on bonus stages? i read it somewhere, is it true?
I will be throwing away 44 currency tho?
just dont claim it till 1st then
its 5k monthly limit, people who play the game get it maxed in about 2 week
it just means you're actually playing the game
Then we do not have any other way to farm ur bullin?
5000 a month and a ur bullin is 4000
well, you can buy another 1000 core from medal shop for 60 medals
So 1 and a half UR bullin a month?
yeah

plus 1 from cruise missions every 2 months
or just dont claim it till 1st, easy
that just means you're capping the next month faster.
if you play the game next month you are gonna max it anyway
he is worried about it, thats the solution for not losing them this week
Okay thank you all!
that's like cutting off the top foot of your blanket to sow it onto the bottom in order to make it longer
Is there a way to see how many days has it been since i played the game or something?
/corewarning
How much event points is good enough for this event? I don't feel the urgency to farm it, nothing really worth it tbh, feels like 12-4 is better

as usual, 55k/60k
what's the point of this?
Gear for gir

Also don’t +11 your gold gear randomly
from their other gears, I doubt that they have upgraded the other +13 priorities
I'm confused to main gun darkness
That one is garbage
I just use what I have
you definitely have better
Then what you have is garbage and you should follow the gear guide
Do /equip in #bot-spam and check 1st link
Ok
is there a guide to know which gear we need to put?
i dont understand at all 
I can’t make it simpler myself so maybe someone else is willing to take it over
https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/home The ECTL also has a bunch of equipment recommended for each of the ships listed there
Thank you 
ECTL gear recs become less applicable as you get into harder content, btw
i would not use them there at this point. there's a high chance agir and/or haku become coinable in the near future (think 2-3 months), so it's probably better to hold out until then for prints
undetermined. Just do 3 pulls a day until further notice 
no reason to do 3 if you arent trying to get the ships
Hey everyone,what augment should i use for helena,sword or crossbow
is hosuton 2 top tier
no
either is fine, sword is slightly more surv, bow is slightly more dmg
is it a bad thing to have only one fleet in a mission?
I want to use only one for xp farm
you won't really need a second fleet till world 10, so no not really a bad thing
i do event T5
that's fine as well
should I do the story mode of the event as well?
where are you in story mode?
just stick to T5
it's only a read through?
some has set teams but you cant lose
nice will do that as well
should I go for the boss when it appears directly? or clear the map? I have 3 stars already
always rush boss if you arent going for kill all star
kill boss if u already have the clear map star
Thanks!
more oil and time efficient to rush the boss for the clear/boss rewards, theyre better than anything the other things will give
and ur usually doing the level for the boss/clear rewards
can i auto battle the map? Is that still something?
once u reach 100% on the map, u can auto search yes
need to lower the threat level?
u can click on the right role, and then choose if u which fleet does what. can set so 1 fleet kills everything except boss, and then other fleet kills boss. or as u mentioned earlier u only want 1 fleet for xp, just set the other fleet to standby
unrelated to auto, threat level just makes ur ships take less damage
yk how when u do a map sometimes u dont unlock the next map immediately, and the map has a percentage icon over the top of it. once u finish it a few times and get to 100%, thats when u can auto them
is it worth using this on T5?
it's worth using when you lack time
where is this menu?
when u click start on the map, and u can choose ur fleets to bring into the map. on the right side of that box is a little button that says role
so u select the level, then should be on the right
it basically just makes you do a run twice in the time it takes to do one
should i put the subs on auto call?
if you're farming them for xp, but keep in mind they also cost oil every time you call them in
image stolen from wiki lol
I found it, thanks!
and that oil cost is not factored in when they say the oil cost when u select auto repeat iirc
yeah because enemy spawns are random so its impossible to actually know
and auto repeat starts the sortie again?
yeah
max 3?
yeah, barring some special events
nice, thanks!
war archives can do 4 but otherwise the standard is 3 
is it worth doing war archives 60 tiems for the ship like during dead weeks, or is that bad use of oil
not worth it outside collection
only time where you want to do war archive is divergent chessboard if you're missing ib tech for ship dev
And maybe Jeanne d’Arc/cosmic kicks
there's a couple ships that are also better to farm as drops eventually for collection vs spending core data for them
but not something a newbie shud do
do i retire unused ships or keep 1 copy of them?
Always keep at least 1 copy of a ship
its good practice to keep 1 copy of every rare and above ship
okay, how about violet bulin, can i retire them
why would you retire bulins, use them instead
i need medalsfor retro
You'll get medals by running maps normally.
retro items come from spec core shop not medal shop, unless you mean buying retrofit blueprints in which case
Dupe ships will drop.
those are horribly overpriced and not worth buying, just farm hard
but hrd only 3/day
all the limited stuff
arrays and cogs are always worth buying, limited stuff is always good for collection
ok
Should I be full clearing the hard stages for more chances at blue print or just rushing boss?
rush boss
Only boss drops print. As always, full clear only for 3*, which is good for getting gold blueprints.
what chapter do i need to have 2 teams
around 10ish onwards
okk
How do people opsi all night without macro
A bunch of AP and strategic search with all the interruptions turned off, I would say
Is there a guide for this
just have a good fleet and check back every couple of mins
checking back every couple of minutes overnight sounds like hell
dont need to check at all if you disable all interruption
it's not the most efficient but it is the most lazy/afk to do
but muh akashi
who is the best UR off flag sheller?
but yeah i wouldnt do opsi overnight
you still got nearly a week to get rid of your AP
to get more ap you mean 

Having both of those underlined turned on would disable all interruptions, I think, but like others said, you still got a week to burn ap
hello, i want ask to you how you to research to decide the best main gun to your ship?
ex: for CV, what's standard for the best TRP bomber or each type aircraft? damage output or armaments which pick-up?
Well I fought against meta nagato at this level last night, thanks for the advice, but I am dreading the moment where I have to fight against her level 90's - 100's. I hope the ship gurls I assigned will be capable of enough of handling her before acquiring her meta form shi[/
i think doing /equip in #bot-spam and checking the first link would get you 80% of the way there
in opsi, do the ap restore items get reset?
other factors to consider would be syncing (or spreading out) damage and knowing when to use which gun
If i were to assemble a fleet out of these ships to work on avp, who should i use?
from the opsi wiki
