How much “meta demanding” is azur lane? Would I be able to clear all content with fully upgraded ships that are reasonably good or would I need to use almost all top units?
idk how to tell if it's arching or not doe
How to do help me miss lala last part
Just curious if I might be able to invest in some of my favorite ships early on or not
No, the non "priority target" are not arching
And priority target is misleading, they're not aimed
Ask Miss Lala for help by tapping the title 5x.
im just saying what's in the barrage datamine
Wow i never knew
Wait nvm they are aimed? Hmm strange
you can clear most content reasonably with your favourite ships
its like to determine yami barrage type right
hood doesnt say arching or priority, for what it's worth
If we’re talking endgame content, then a meta fleet is definitely necessary however for most of the content you can run whatever
Is sovetsky soyuz still available I cant get her🥲
If it has spread and/or splash it is arching, if not it isn't
Nope wait for rerun
no she will rerun at some point

ah i see ok ye half of yami is splash half is not, all of hood is splash
Gotta wait years, good luck~
so her barrage is worse then but still WAY better stats behind it
Yeah ig barragePriority makes her aim weird
Non arching has advantages too, it can hit things that got closer to you
How comprehensive would the meta be? Is there a reasonable amount of units for each role? I’m not really into most of the UR ships I’ve seen so far
is T5 the highest level farming stage for this event?
Helena is a goddess. Just remember these words.
Endgame without URs is challenging
dats damage boost is craaaazy
endgame content in this context refers to hard arbiter, challenge mode, and w15 iirc
those need more optimized setups
w13-14 need some thought but are more lenient than w15 (esp w13) especially if you have a lot of account bonuses (cats, tech, gear etc)
For endgame, UR BB’s are so ahead of SR’s that not running them would be akin to shooting yourself in the foot
I’m really enjoying the game so far, is there a tier list for specific contents? I kinda want to see what will be my future options
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13YbPw3dM2eN6hr3YfVABIK9LVuCWnVZF0Zp2BGOZXc0/edit?gid=0#gid=0 if ur interested in endgame
https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/main/bb for general use (whatever that means idk lol)
Would sr’s with retrofit be included into the ur’s bucket?
the only UR retro bb is warspite who is low/mid end of gold bbs lol
There is only one retrofit UR BB and that is Warspite
Several gold BBs dunk on her
is warspite even still relevant in PVP?
No
Hardly
nope
Sorry, I was actually thinking about the units in general, not only bb
Sad :(
yep guessed. . .
i should add that, this channel almost exclusively focuses on auto play
our recommendations and advice is based on this
if you are willing to manual your ship selection for endgame content expands by a decent amount, so don't worry too much about it 
Sandy is very relevant, Eldridge too
Yuudachi less so
some, yes
Sandy for example
There are no other retrofits to UR
eldridge
i think it's more important to point out that most endgame meta stuff are entirely optional
like youd be struggling to auto w15 with gold bbs but if you manual it should be quite doable
do not pressure yourself into that side of the game when you're not even halfway there yet
Also keep in mind that gearing is one of the most important part of the game
besides x-4 ship drop and one time gem reward there is no major purpose in playing w13-15 anyway tbh 
I guess like most people i tend to overthink, so I guess knowing what awaits me is a very good way to get food for thought
Cog chips 
i can tell you that what awaits you is waiting for UR rerun 💀
I’m saving some cubes to pull some nice units
you can get cog chips (tho less) in w12, so it's not necessary is what im saying
i was talking about rewards exclusive to w13-15
I hope i don’t get shafted
What's after Musashi?
I'm waiting for Sumner Laffey rerun. . .
Yorktown II
basically once you get those exclusive rewards you do not ever have to play w13-15 again if you dont want to
the exclusive reward is the better cog rate itself
I mean sure, but then that applies to any stage / game mode
it's a small minority of players who farm above ch12
im not saying you should
ur missing my point, which is that endgame content is largely optional
aurora bro you're too lost in the sauce
Thank you guys, just one last question, as a rule of thumb, would the “second tier” in those tier lists still be highly functional in all contents or only the top tier units?
and thus one shouldnt be too worried about it
me farming at 14-4, cuz yes
dont be fooled by tierlist, a lot of second or third tier are ironically meta ships
second tier doesnt say much, it depends how much ur fleet and your account can carry
you are both sadist to ur ship and maso to urself
15-1 is best if you need cogs
tierlist is a guideline not a rule
but no one dies, and i can chose pretty much alot of my waifus to be tanker ...
i already did with Yorck doing that role btw ...
Well that kinda sucks, I guess I will have to make some horrendous mistakes before grasping it
and yes sure cog chip farming yes but again, that is much more optional than something like gems for dock space or exclusive ship drop for collection%...hence my point...
If you need help just dm me
. . . sadist indeed
Dw, the biggest mistake you can make in this game is spending gems on things that aren't too useful
Will do
or scrapping hedgehog
till now a vast number of waifus already did tanker role into my 14-4 farming
Yorck, Eugen, Golden, Hindy, Hein, Adal, Nachi ...
14-4 after safe and full tech its quite a joke ...
nah, im not regretting buying laffey l2d
sliding into dms smh
Yes, gems are only to get skins for my waifus, never spend resources into actual useful stuff that helps with progression
How did you have Golden Darkness tank?
Golden Hind
You are free to do the same 
I know 
i recommend checking /gems in #bot-spam
rizz
if musashi can tank for backline ship why not others
I Love Taiyaki!
~~luck of me i cant make other tank for my FdG ... ~~
then get Oklahoma tank
Damn dude, you are a life savior, I had absolutely no idea that bot spam was such a useful channel
lots of useful info in the bot commands yes
Thanks guys
Exclusively run out of Grey parts you mean
w12 >>>
ure welcome
i did a vast amount of test to get myself confortable with Gray plates ...
cog chip farming kinda cope tbh, the rate is so low
w13 was what like 2 cogs per run?
Just pray you never get houssii and problem solved. Or keep "accidentally" scrapping her
Cope is cope 
then again to be fair ill never judge anyone for their quirky farming habits considering how i live in c1
it adds up when ure spending thousands and thousands of oil
w13 i can understand tbh. w14/w15 tho can u even level ships 
Did I somehow convert you to c1 or did you find it yourself
that was lower than I'd expect
can levely 2 vanguards and 1 backline very comfy
someone mentioned it at some point and i gave it a go and had fun 
You can
Especially if you're (mostly) done with backline
oh nice 
Share the code
pretty sure u can 1 gud VG
tap on help me miss lala 5 times
tap logo multiple times
wait, we can do that? i guess it myself for a damn minute
Lvling main in W14 it should be ... a challenge, but if its a really gud main, should be doable
musashi unicorn eldridge can lvl any 3 fillers in 14/15
Surely you can just slap Musashi and not think about it
whatever, its done anyway
Level 100 fillers ?
yea
todays puzzle was fun tbh i wish ppl would give it a go instead of begging miss lala for help 
I gotta try that for 15-1
preferably they hit 110 for no random deaths
corpse dragging 
that's true
I always ran 4 and 2 fillers
the minigame though, will it be permanent?
no
sad
What's the main use of hele retro
radar
i'm already lvled everything that i care, so idk the minimun for 14-4 lvling 
eldridge is good at keeping vang alive and musashi backline and clear the stage
but sometimes eldr can goof and some1 gets deleted in 15
timing adjustment to align with bbs (?)
EN's gotta EN lol
And it's not even reading this time
Now share the lines 
shameplay-help
here doe
bruh the line is plain easy
Just triple tap the title on top left and it auto solves
i thought that's like obvious

its ok if i help while shaming 
oh is it?
Ty 🫶
Wuss
no its not
gonna hide from mod now
Me playing another game that has puzzles like that biweekly, but with way more parts and only 1 solution...no it's really not fun 
you should make youtube video for these
its fun bc its not super hard, im pretty bad at puzzles but these felt nice to me
said the purple name
i'm busy with other projects 
Title: Puzzles EN can't solve (they keep asking in gph)
don't you know as soon as you get purple name you stop playing
better they ask here than in #al-general where there is no rule against shaming
go create a video about doing those stupid game ads right
it would be satisfying
I play many JRPG im tired of puzzle solving thanks a lot 
Yes we got it now stop pls
manjuu could use the pink vg as one of those stupid game ads and it'd work pretty well given how mid they are without their augments 
is this pinkshaming
no i love pink
anyway what's the eval for new ships
i like them tier
Afaik golds all decent, Nana with pretty good dps, elites are elites
which are pink haired
All
the 3 princess sisters
all deviluks ?
the vanguards
gimme a min
momos plants are really interesting tbh, i think they have infinite range
see their bullets constantly go off screen to hit far spawning enemy lol
ah well maybe not, but it's quite long
if i cant see it, it is effectively limitless 
can new ship replaces my vgs
yeah theyd be way better 
we need option to sort by hair color
love the pink fleet i am going to make one when i get perseus
@ Lars new idea for your ship database thing?
also 
i actually think a fleet with ruppy sara percy lala nana momo would be a really decent opsi fleet like for stronghold and shit
well decent considering it's all golds only
i used ruppy, but BB in opsi mob is cringe
imagine wasting your precious time on BB time slow
momo and nana want barrage guns so ruppy and sara would help a lot with consistent dakka from the back

i run ruppy sara uni backline and it does fine enough
percy being bootleg unicorn would also be fine since ruppy and momo do some minor healing 
percy is fine for eveything past few years
percy is better than unicorn in opsi mobbing if ur fleet is very fast
Anywhere efficient to farm gold?
w12+
and by very fast i mean fights end before unicorns 2nd launch
nvm
i just noticed lars not in ecgc server
Sadly this a an SR fleet tho
Also I'd say it's debatable cuz in the fast fights I don't think it really makes much of a difference and the slow fights hurt you more
i just found out there's an ecgc server
the poison swamp in strongholds hurts me 
and percy recovers better
What I hate in OpSi are those that reduces your range. It forces your auto clear to disable smh


so not happening where matters, Stronghold

i will took my Klaudia and call it a day
well theres plenty of fights inbetween elites in strongholds
overall percy is better there aswell 
the only place shes worse is on abysalls but my fleets clears those anyway
here I just set it, and forget it

press the lala button 5 times
.
1st it's 3, then 4, now 5
One message removed from a suspended account.
One message removed from a suspended account.
how many times is it
Imagine hovering over the screen counting every second.
we should categorize it as "a bunch of"
i press it 5 times till it works
just read codes
it's 5
if uv0.cheatCount >= 5 then
uv0.cheatCount = 0
uv0.lockCheat = true
CHEATCOUNT
@ mods this person posted cheats
smh everyone cheating the puzzlegame
is Lala worth? or should I just wait til getting better CAs?
i'm selling AL cheats (for minigame), $5 per stage dm me
do you have bulins
I believe so 🤣
idk about that ... Haguro is EVA Tech ... hard be better than that
okay, but i meant for actual use
lala good and only replaceable by research or UR imo
well and fancy ig
if u need more pure tank
then u can swap her in but only if u reached oilcap like T5 or w9
otherwise stick to current fleet till then
would still keep portland till 120 ull need her when u branch 2nd fleet and for rookies anyway
should i summon my subs to bring them to 120 or just book them after getting 100aff
dorm/book is more oil efficient
yeah keep portland for 1st fleet when you begin 2nd fleet lala is gud for that
iirc rookie need port 100, no ?
currently theyre like 116 avg
get to 100 aff, and then book them is better for your sanity, and oil
yes
ok, yeah I've been advised to not work on a second fleet yet so I will keep what I have but at least I can "pin" units for a second fleet once I get there, thanks 🙇♂️
Auto-summon in opsi for 0 AP for very minor xp gains 
cuz we EN, we need to hard things
i do suppose research implies reading
What am I supposed to do with these map coordinate things?
use them
I'm not sure if this where I ask since it's about an event, but does anyone know how to complete day 7 of the puzzle?
even the lowest ones have a better chance to gold plates and other things than normal maps ... so Hiddens > normal maps
hiddens are good to give coins to do more c1 


Ooh, single yellow in the bottom left, that's fresh
There seems to be quite some ways to solve it
theres some variation on how to solve it, ive seen a couple other solutions. tho i think the green one is always there 
Nah, you can take the green to the top, shift the purple one to the left and put the orange 45° diagonal where the green was if I'm not mistaken
I insist if you're going to ask for the solution then just save the time moving the tiles and skip it
i see
Thank you!
i agree, but also they might just be curious as to see how it's actually done 
nay i ask what the rationale for anti air equipment is? like why does some need low firing rate gun while some need higher damage/low firing rate even if everything is averaged?
because not every ship has the same AA stat, AA gun slot efficiency and RLD
Hello I often lack storage for ships, do you have any advice?
so for high AA, better high dmg anti air gun?
The AA damage is the sum of each individual ship. The firing rate/range is what gets averaged. So better guns on better ships = better AA damage, and then you want to regulate fire rate/range to not be too slow or too small an area.
ty
so for low AA ships, might be better to use low dmg low fire rate gun?
The highest damage AA guns tend to be slow firing, so the negligible AA ships get the STAAG to increase their HIT/for the faster fire rate typically. Usually that is the mainfleet.
Low alpha dmg
Good range and high fire rate (lower cd)
whatcis staag?
In practice up to ch 12 and maybe 13 u can do full roomba on vanguard
And hazemeyer/staag on backline
ahh the twin40
i se, it has decent dmg yet better than most fire rste
More importantly it increases HIT.
thankss
maximizing AA is also not something you need to bother with until ch13 at earliest
Does ch 14 need more AA than 12? 
Not rly
Idgi what am I doing wrong here
for ch13, is sandy better for mob or boss fleet?
end here
You need to end where the arrow is pointing away from
Aka the very right
Probably boss
Since unicorn is in mob 
But she works in both
ok ty
ahh, thank u
U can also run 3 carrier in mob which makes their AA even better
is twin90 better than twin 113 AA gun for sandy?
roomba is 113 right?
Yes 
thanks
Not good
Change to purple helldiver
Changed already. Can i make something worthwhile of them?
Hmmmm not sure let me check
I doubt it tho
I havent seen the further Bombers out of it either in the guides
U can make it into skypirate torpedo bomber which is decent but not really worth
Actually what happened to your green piece? 
Is this good?
Just use barracuda till u get wyvern/breguet/the pr5 TB
So, i keep 2 and shred the rest
Pretty decent
Sure
U could upgrade in gear lab to get the plates back
But hardly necessary those plates are whatever anyway
Oh tysm
In case their Line gets something good in the lab
Yeah u can keep whatever gear u want
Just store them on ships u dont use so they dont take space in depot
it changes colour in the line phase, for some weird reason
i asked someone where's the green colour earlier and got told to shut up
Average AL code ig
it's just rgb electronics
small indie devs please understand
-# fucking schiemettabozo
is skypirate better than helldiver?
Skypirate is a TB, Helldiver a DB no?
both are just a waste of resources honestly
wait no its a TB
ya, but just get a Breguet at that point
yukikaze good tank?
No
Anyone know if Speedy Sprouty Botanist increases the size of enemy hitboxes?
afaik, no
Probably a good thing for balancing, but also a little sadge
only visually
tho tbh i doubt you could notice a miniscule 3% increase anyways on the average phone screen
How does the Nagato meta stuff work? I fight it enough and eventually unlock her?
what is momo good at? Can she deal dmg or how can I make her good?
and then you fight her more to get dupes to limit break her
which you get all dupes at 25k pts
I doubt a 3% hitbox increase would've been very noticeable tbh, so idk, guess it was just easier and less bugprone to only make it visual
very strong aoa-like barrage
2 plant summons with decent gunnery that also can tank/bodyblock shots and rammers
minor fleetwide offensive buffs and support, stacking over time with initial rng (1 ship gets buffed randomly every 10s, with fleetwide buff every 20s and additional boost to +2 ships each time) and minor healing as well
she would be a reasonable choice for a mob fleet vanguard ship up to ch14, and in opsi 
Surely a 3% hitbox increase would take mk7 from 98% to 100% on a 5.5x10 nonmoving boss 
w15 idk, her aa is very
but that can be filled with other ships i guess. i just dunno if she'd contribute sufficiently to be of value
is my current fleets fine or do i need to change it?
I see nagato and three not mlb URs, looks bad already
I see an Aquila not in use
also tentative ranking for endgame content i suppose 
gearwise if you don't have plygun imo single 150 is best for her
Did anyone here test Nana boss dmg against other similar dmg ships
What is the best VG tech nowadays?
eva for ca, fp for all i guess? 
mine's still only 105
then again so is my poikai but idk how to do good tests
any recommendations?
would suggest making a thread and also what content is this for
Yeah looking at max stats compared to what I have I seem to be like 2/3rds of the way there for most stats? EVA can only get 4 and FP can get 56 max so yeah Ill see if I can finish that
Fleet recommendation
the easiest way to think about tech is level everything 
wouldn't level everything indiscriminately 
btw anyone know which stats to prioritize for Musashi? She do damage from a skill, so what affect that skill dmg?
why not 
Everything
cog chips that's why
can still level everything, just takes longer 
does nana astar deviluke have a unique augment?
all the collab units do
If you mean adjusting stats with auxes and augs there actually aren't many choices. Shorten cooldown with radars/tables, shells, or autoloader and sword.
what does luck do?
used in evasion/hit check critical hits, but the talent is basically useless
i see
any suggestions on how a good meofficer build should be?
what are some reasonably easy accessible HMS ship for tech points
to unlock plymouth
Reload and rainbows
shiny trap is also true for cat talents 
not exactly RLD and Rainbowns, specially rainbow part
anyone know where to get charles ausburne drops
RLD works for SSs and CV
Rainbow except 1 and niched to other, all others are okaish to pure trash
sometimes event stages
like this one?
oh oki ty
not exactly, 1 really gud, 1 niched, other trash
that faction talent is just bad
KMS staff is meh but alpha wolf is good, that's something you can use for subs until you find something better 
Wolf is ideal for SSs, Faction works for KMS and only, so locked into it, wut isnt ideal, and ACC its bad
for SSs should be
Alpha/FLame/TRP+RLD/TRP
cat gacha is just money grubber huh
rerolling my antenna for 3y almost ...
u dont really need to worry about cat rerolling till later on
acc is arguably better than HP
ideal is alpha/flame/SS chief/RLD/whatever
very end game min/max 
at least for now my ss is only kms wolfpack
kinda build a cat and lock him into a faction its bad, cuz isnt easy to reroll them to near perfection, and if u do a "perfect" cat with a fac talent, it will be locked to it
even for wolfpack KMS staff is a bad talent
wut isnt ideal, cuz build another one, can take 3y or more depending into ur luck ...
but alpha wolf is something you can work with until you find a better cat
just don't bother rerolling the talents on this one
yea new UR is soon u wouldnt want to waste your coins
soon like 3 weeks ish away
honestly don't bother rerolling/overspamming cats until you're basically consistently in 6 digits
till new UR and me in 14-4 i should farm enough to reroll my cats dailly till event day
but yeah cats are post endgame 
at least perfect ones. 'good enough' cats can be done earlier and are alot easier technically than true 10/10 kitties
you can collect as much as you want up to 600k, just not from the merchant
Is this one okay to invest in?
that accuracy is pretty meh, but that's an ok base
its time to me flex my deep sea myth creatures
I have yet to roll a steel with flame, none of mine even start with alpha base so I have nothing to reroll with

you can fix cats as you level them tbh
One last cat question
you have basically 0 leeway for perfect cat 
its like this ur cats should look to ur SS fleet
Okay so is this also a good base cat
see, my deep sea myth creatures
I have edel like that, just not steel
bad for rerolling
Damn noted
i would still reroll her if nothing better tho
get ace and turn her into a 20 rld cat
what to use for CV cats nowadays anyway besides bisha
cruiser one, and eagle or other elite CV Focused
jiro/ark/eagle
takemaru ? is the cruiser one ? if is, them he works for a cmd slot
wut, never see this ?
shame on u, 🌊 
1 day of not rerolling is 1 day delay of getting 40 rld
I have a Takemaru with Heart, and Tireless on it 
would be nice if Flame was there, but eh 
well I want to prep 40CVRLD cats was just exploring my options 
is that possible
20 is max CV RLD on 1 cat with CV chief, RLD and ace
ah
my original plan its have a Takemaru focused into CV ... but he never came even to me start one ... also my Antenna keep hating me alot and refusing be perfect ...
When you reroll said cats, you're basically rerolling what they can get in their 3rd or 4th slot talents right?
Oh tf
4 and 5
Oh 4 and 5, my heart skipped a beat thinking I blew coins doing it wrong lol
You only roll 3 if edelweiss, elite, etc
Like the bish they showed which is bad
SR came with 4 points right
Makes me sad that bish is bad
3-4
just harder to be perfect
never seen 3
shit, chat goes down and i wrong answered
3 is if a talent with only 1 lvl eats 2 pts. Don't think it appears otherwise
Dw, first talent will be flame and then you're screwed because of fear of reroll loss
say that to my only antenna that start decently on all SR Cats i already oppened boxes
i never get a Antena with ideal start, since always ... i already lose account of how much rerolls on that antenna, and how many antennas i already scrap cuz always came with shit
Should I reroll and cope for ace,
Started with rookie officer and mech
theres no fear of reroll loss if u have a another 8pter cat on the bench
That’s the problem 
You should have rerolled long ago...
yes i would, but it rly depends on ur income and what other cats u got to reroll
if u have nothing better to reroll and ure >soft cap coin then go ahead
i got 4 cats focused into CA, 4 cats for BBs, 4 cats for CVs and 2 for SSs
so theres no problem with rerolls on imperfect ones
we dont need go deep into details and say that my CVs benched and all 4 BB cats arent perfect
I reroll every day, but never get ace
welcome to gambling
Just asking, how many runs of 12-4 or whatever coin farm do you run per day without going below oil production?
I've been doing at least 2 but I always seem to run out of oil for everything else before weekly reset
0 right now?
if u are a active player, u can expect something near 5k oil day, so make accounts, cuz i'm lazy
How does it matter?
Talking about CV cats
In your experience guys is getting ace/flame start reasonable 
🎲
I see it happen a lot more frequently for BB/SS cats
trust me, its reasonable
ideally you want to start with at least one of ace and flame but 🎲
you're far less likely to roll both on levelups
in my lifetime of purchasing 15 cat boxes /day i got 1 special talent bish start that was 3 pter
me and my Antennas
if I had to give one up I'd give up on flame as well, since usually the RLD matters more if you're pushing optimization
So it is not just me 
my sample size is me which = 1
so ur experience may vary
i never see acat that hate me more than Antennas, my "Ozen" one its about to drive me to madness
ozen 
How do you even have that much boxes to open
he buys them
surface cats = Made in Abyss
SSs = myth creatures
CVs = Skyrim dragons
Did I just hear made in abyss
you have to just keep buying more but at the end of the day it's RNG
I have 9 bish with initial flame/ace 
it's why I have a couple thousand purple cat boxes 
Not counting one's scrapped
I’m dead broke on everything
Coins
Oil
Cat box
True but there is rng and rng
Like SR rate is 2% and UR is 1.2%
Both of them are rng 
don't bother with cats until you run out of shit to spend on
if u are progressing or stat farming ... isnt a surprise u can barelly reset 1 cat /d
forest is meh
Copy thatt
only rainbow that matter is Flames
Mountain its niched into lategame
Destiny (its this one 10 stats and - lck?) its okaish in some situations
I'm just waiting to wrap up on collab so I can go back to leveling shit again and get coins 
Do people ever use the Drake or kidd cat?
i'm almost 55k points, maybe today at work i will finish and go back to my farming home 14-4 and keep rerolling my Ozen and new Bisha project with RLD instead ACC
the SR tempesta cats are good bases if you haven't gotten into the cat rerolling business and found something good
real
You're coping and not rerolling anyway. I would just take it or you won't even make 5 talents.
it doesn't take time, it takes patience
cats its all about coping.
but the thing is, its a minor buff that cost couple million to MAYBE u get a perfect one ...
it's less of how long it takes and more of not pulling your hair out when you keep getting bad cats and bad rerolls
so if u are progressing, or tech farming, or working into gear
i trully recommend to NOT focus into perfect cats
Fair enough 
I still have PR7 to complete and get my LA9s so I'll hold off on cats for now
And w14/15 to progress
Wtf there was a cat discussion and nobody invited me
Hey I feel like an idiot, but is somewhere here the solution for todays puzzle?
is there a specific app for azur lane shop?
tap help me miss lala 5 times
... thx
yes
im not joking..
i know I tried
when does campaign get hard after a month and a half of playing
or move the green 1 up and 1 to the right and start there
?
at ch14
whenver u decide to move out of w12 or maybe not 🔮
🫡 i havent been rushing campaign so im kind of behind on it
barely on ch10 cause farming other stuff
but opsi is much easier than endgame campaign
Later on sure
When u only have 2 fleets it is challenging
still easier than w14 and 15
yeah i havent really been grinding opsi, just do it for the daily
abyssals are actually difficult for new players
even tho vets curbstomp them
and w14 isnt? listen to what you are saying lol
Doing opsi for the daily is inefficient, either go hard to get real resources or just skip it to save time
is there a specific app for in game shops?
i cant do it inside the game cuz my device keep crashing
i already said
?
at ch14
I heard that 11-3 is very difficult
im just also mentioning what part of opsi is difficult early on
i see so its just misunderstanding then
If I'm at the point where I made friedrich and now need to use coins can I start development on another ship and still work on friedrich?
as in you've obtained fdg and she's in your dock?
Yes
yeah feel free to start another. enhancing her with coins is a separate thing entirely and you can do both
How good are the collab shipgirls..
gold = ok
purple = purple

I'm thinking of adding this to Laffey II for more undying, is that a good idea or nah
does anyone know how to do this ? been at it for nearly 4 days now:
tap the title twice
no HP and laff2 has better alternatives for invulnerability
would it be worth purchasing rings by one? or does the 2x1 offer come around often?
Like what? The washing machine equipment and what other equipment?
Wait for 2x
Wait till valentine's day
does valentine's have 2x1?
We should get our next 2x1 soon honestly
It think yes, i remembered buying 2 rings
Is the washing machine equipment another must equip on laffey II?
no, same issue with that one you showed, no HP
Hmmm
you give her HP boosting auxiliary
She doesn't use it , HP more valuable on her
so either a toolbox or one of the gold auxes that give 550 base HP
because hp lets her survive for 10 secs more
Oh i get it now
Because you usually want to live longer than 1.5s
But do you guys think this is good in PVP where the enemies have burst torps?
I mean for other ships other than laffey II in PVP
No? She benefits more from HP then EVA it's simple as that
If you want invulnerability the manjuu is still best
Not to mention Laffey can't be oneshotted, torps just chunk her
I mean jn other ships
tankiest laffii shud be toolkit + chef thing
the regen and 2 lck is probably worth more than +50 hp id assume
That still depends on ship, CAs CLs use washing machine, DDs stack Hp
wirbel luft and manjuu iykyk
well if the fight is at least 40s
2% hp is higher than 50 for laffii
manjuu gud too but
if she reach 0 hp surely that's a problem already?
what about felix
Eh
There are exceptions 
Ask pvp. Or don't and crush those clueless tryhards or die trying
So die trying 
Also as an unrelated note
I'd like to remind people here that you should not be snarky while answering questions
Ack
durability has assumptions
It's the admin?
including references to "player base skill issues"
Oh it is the admin i checked his bio 💀
yeah right no ad hominem
maybe, we have no way of knowing
Drake and Kidd are not back permanently yet, and Every should not be earlier than them
theyll most likely return in some fashion (such as next year tempesta), permanently is unknown 
The point was if you found some super secret advantagd to pvp informing them would negate your advantage
is the chippy medal crafter thing important
should i be rushing tech points to unlock fdg and agir this early on? still barely on ch10
depends on what you mean by rushing, but farm the event first
rushing the tech points to start unlocking them
yeah im still doing event, but i also spammed the war archives thing for iron blood
so the pvp doc might be a propaganda 
is bayard a good offtank for mobbing
i should be able to get to 700 tech points with 4 more mlb purple ships i believe
Farming D4 isn't terrible but using terrible ib ships can be.
yeah im only using some to get to just lvl 70 for the mlb
approximately like 510-520/700 rn
event trophy
yes
assuming she's at least D25 (tho ideally D30) sure
hello. sorry but idk if anyone knows but what is the highest rarety caracter u can get from battle drops?
SRs on select maps
but usually the highest rarity is Elite
how can i know what the highest drop is on a specific map?
i see
wiki
ok thx.
thx all for the help. going back to al-general chat. ( what is t5? )
the map u want
one of the event maps
thx again. bye all now
yo someone drop the solution for last help me miss lala stage
Yes wiki but on the formation screen it will look like this
my brain cant brain and i cant afford to lose precious time on stupid things like
nice pfp u got
thanks but not the solution im looking for
tap the "help me miss lala" logo 5x
If you tap help do you have the option to refuse the help?
i dont know what u need
Sorry forgot attachment
then perhaps dont say anything
ok wtf its that simple
Tap the title multiple times until it solves it for you
BTW which gun should I put on Napoli the best one for her primary / secondary
no worrys and thx
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNGz2sbgPDw also jimmy posted a video about it u could look at
am i not allowed to compliment someone?
that's not what ender replied to tho
you can compliment them in #al-general
When's the last time a sr dropped from preboss on 15?
will keep in mind. thx
ideally these
but you're almost certainly not gonna put your rainbow guns on a tank unless you have way too many of them
damn all good with Plymouth gun but I don't have any of the other
wouldn't the ca gun she came with work fine
it's fine for a gold
but i'd have to question if you have dev 30 napoli with zero rainbow CA guns
well the thing is she's not gonna get much DPS mileage from a rainbow CA/L gun anyways
if you had only like 1, you'd prio the DPS
right one is a BB gun
just refer to this and slap a gold one on her then
oh ok nvm I actually have the left one, then gg imma gonna put it rn thx
Have you tried switching it off and on again
Then I have no idea other than reinstalling or using a different emulator
ima check on phone
Am i able somehow to earn combat data pack to speed up reaserch? I'm using the right fleet etc, but even tho it's taking ages to finish lol
works properly
Who are you trying to grind? What fleet are you using? Where are you farming?
You shouldn't use combat data packs, they are much more worthwhile to analyse and use as protocore
be patient withh research ships. it's a waste to use data packs because exp is plentiful but protocore is not
I'm trying to finish monarch xd
there has almost never been a case where bp collection is faster than cdc
also monarch 0-342 bp is useless
What fleet are you using? Where are you grinding?
if you want to get pr ship done quickly, just spam c1 opsi in the background while you do other things, it will go by relatively quickly for 0 oil at all
Well the faster you're done the faster you can start coining
But I'll assume you're just new and at low level stages and that's why it's taking you long
the nice benefit of this is it works even for relatively new player...although try to finish ch4 opsi first so you get the reset benefits and whatnot
Newcomer research and cruise pass
Warspite, Duke of York, teseus, and I'm trying on 8-4
also, worth noting that the tradeoff of using cdc for coinable ships is you are late by several weeks on the rainbow weapons, which might have more use case then whatever you are coining
could have farmed exp faster in the event
8-4 is the last stage before w9 which is where oil cap starts to be a thing and helps your grind massively

farm t5
its the most oil exp efficient stage in the game that isnt operation siren
yes it is much much faster, it's an oilcap with the most oil to exp efficiency
and it's not even close, it's 20%+ superior to 11-1 which is the most efficient campaign stage
I'm not even there ;-;
bonus points for it being really easy and accessible to low level ships
I'm stuck at 9-3 xd
what happened to T5 being 11-1 level
t5 is like 15 levels below 9-3
;-;-;-;-;-;
imagine having 20k oil, you can spend on event T5 level 70 enemies, or spend on world 8 which has idk and not oilcap
that was ppls guesstimate without mathing it. the exact math (3 elite 3 medium fleet boss vs 6 medium fleet boss) is ~+20% more exp/oil
T5 is definitely not 11-1 level in terms of gold right?
Soo, t5 whatever that is, is easier then 9-3? 🤔
t5 is the final event map
Oh gosh
t5 is below 9-1 in gold so yeah its very polarized to exp
you want gold you go 12-4 like normal ppl 
How am I supposed to even get there lol
T5?
From main menu just tap the button above Battle?
It'll take you to the event stages
so t5 is 19% more efficient than 11-1
exp efficient!
Doesn't really get you xp fast though. Just cheap. Morale cost insane?
is it really not fast enough?
yes its specifically oil/exp efficient
if you have time issue go to w12
if you have oil issue go to c1
if you want a balance go t5
the parameter for time is confusing tbh, we have oil limitations, runtime limitations, morale limitations
doesn change that t5 is best bang for your oil when it comes to exp
and it's also very noob friendly and low level ship friendly
so always interjecting with "BUT MY TIME!" isnt very helpful imo 
hey it 's kinda helpful to counter low oiling arguments in coin optimization
Whatever your pr goals should still be doing event. Even moreso for limited playing time.

also I think you went to the wrong server
I thought people are exclusively answering here or ectl, I've seen an example on both now
what?
I am neither
does anyone have any nakh soyuz amagicv example fleets?
for med
0 BB
the most important thing is 0 BB rld
in this case im using 29 CV rld
how can an aux gun have more damage than nakh

229.7k auxgun
is that...normal?
its called assuming it shots every opportunity its gets
o
which it never actually will bc there is not going to be a target
damn i didnt know bb gun so much lower dps than cl gun thoo
i would ignore the calc
so bismarck aux gun actually does around (2/3)80% of that assuming they keep shooting?
dont take the numbers serious if u dont know what they mean and they probably arent properly configured in that screenshot anyway
confused how you got that number for 11-1
using the equivalent multipliers for your T5, and assuming 100% medium in 11-1, it's 26.02 exp/oil

?
((790 * 6) + 1051) / 267 = 21.69
that's for 11-1
yes
then the equivalent for T5 would be (638*3+507*3+696)/1.2=3442
you need to divide by another 1.2
but why
wiki lists the absolute basest values
as in?
without s clear bonus
taken straight from game expedition
why do i need to divide twice i dont get it?
S rank
btw those arent dps numbers (apart from the aa)
dmg per 90s or something along those lines, isnt it?
unless ender did actually turn the setting
in other news, did you know that AR repair crane doesn't heal if your whole fleet is above 99% HP?
total dmg dealt in a 90s fight but yes i should say dmg per fight
its total damage over n seconds where n is the configured time ender chose
Neither does the new aux if your ship it is equipped on
which aux 
the cooker
[...] 'target': 'TargetSelf', 'targetMaxHPRatio': 0.99 [...] I doubt it
well does it need to heal if you're over 99% hp
but ye sounds like an error then?
we'll see in battle
How important is Operation Siren? I usually ignore it.
Idk they specifically put the code there
No idea why though, heal is capped to max HP anyway
Kinda awfully important
very important but it's fine to go at your own pace
as important as getting good gear
my full HP Nana healed for 33 HP 20s into the battle
chat do i need 4 fleets for opsi?
no
if you're just casually playing then you dont necessarily have to bother, but it has all the best gears, +13 equip, and meta ships for collection%
Eventually
At some point yes for a mission, but they don't all need to be good
and some amount of cvrld
ah
technically you only need 1 fleet
more helps tho!!
targetMaxHPRatio only applies if the target is leasthpratio
(well real fleets...you need 1 backline 1 vg in each slot)
since cooker is target self, the 99% does not matter
wait rly? I thoughtt need 2 with >=120 levels
With Unicorn I never need more than 1 fleet
yes you will need more than 1
because you wont be able to clear tougher bosses with the 50% dmg penalty
i quite doubt u beat Harbiter with only Uni fleet
oh wait opsi
- you can't harby with uni
- you need more than unicorn for other content
you might be able to do harby with uni
I never claimed to have gone that deep into it. I just asked if it was even important! But so far I've just used her.
u literally claim u only need Uni...
you didnt really ask a question tho
I can't even beat a mini vault boss with my ganj uni fleet 
Well that is cursed
The question was there
ok fair i didnt consider harby. 2 fleets then
I've only said so far, a fleet with unicorn has handled everything.
Idk how you can disagree that what check target does being dependent on the type of target is cursed, but ok
Very. Like number 3 after event and hard mode
you need 2 fleets with >480 levels total iirc
idk what the numbers are but they won't let you go without it
i forgot exactly but ye doesnt mean you have to USE them tho
but they ask need 
could be 6 level80 common shitters for all the game (and you) care about
well i assumed its to do content not meet a requirement bc like i mentioned technically all fleets have to be filled with at least 1 vg and backliner
again, it is as important as getting good gears, which for most players, very important. Good gear can
- Push your ceiling to be able to beat higher content
- Push your floor to be able to farm w12 comfortably with lower level fleets
- QoL improve for 1 fleet OpSi clearing
- Low oiling
unicorn is enough to clear like, most of the easier content
gem farming 
That that's all I was trying to say, I've ignored it so much I'm probably still on the easy content.
One fleeting the game isn't very meta and so shouldn't even be a discussion on ops meta.
anything actually difficult you'd need at least a boss fleet
i mean it is actually very meta to do 95% of opsi with a single powerful fleet...only stuff you typically wont is abyssals, maybe stronghold bosses if new player, and harby/narby
since abyssals need tapping, and others are automatic nvm stronghold can be autoed
this trash one fleeted auto stronghold except the final boss so 
nep only die on final fight lol
that's wild
I know someone with soyuz uni saratoga portland shimakaze chang chun can't even half clear stronghold without someship dying
I'll try to do it more. It just adds so much more daily time playing the game.
Klaudia can do Stronghold, so Uni can do as well ...
Abyss C5 can be done by Klaudia as well, so pretty sure Uni do as well ... i dont doubt into C6 Uni with more powerful uni fleet than my waifu fleet
neptune is lowkey epic now
she kept trucking along until the invader killed her like 5s before it died rip 
Harby is the real thing i doubt that Uni fleet can do it solo
99% of ops is like true auto. It can run for hours on its own if that's what you need.
thats good
to be fair portland is honestly shit LOL
theres a reason portland is offtank there, she cant get thru half a stronghold without puttering out
I can't find any suchi videos showing that, so maybe they indeed can't
what hard mode stages drop what prints?
1 dd 2 cl 3 bb 4 cv
has suchi tried tho? he can do harby in 21 seconds, i feel like if anyone could make uni one fleet harby he can
why always sushi 
same but when I do laundry, studying, class, work, shower, eat, commute
do u guys fw kimocheese

more like kimoicheese
cuz he is one of the most reliable and one guy that is around GPH and do this kinda of stuff ?
does uni solo mean 1:3 fleet?
3:3 but with uni?
3:3:3?
also, my sucessor into KMS fleet
does sub count?
too easy, not even going to try
sub is allowed 
go post a video like Fanchen did
ok well that confirms uni can do harby lol 
on that i gona
u
time to change it to a C
guy thinks I can't one fleet harby with Unicorn and doubts me
also i am no longer considering fancy gud opsi tank, if you roll cv abyssal or stronghold boss she folds like paper due to such a high % of avi dmg 
consistency -5, cant be true tank if you only work 80% of the time
so in operation am I supposed to beeline to unlocking the last port so I can buy gear prints from it?
good thing since fancy tank believers went from 1 to 0
finish ch4 of the story
beeline to finishing chapter 4 of the opsi campaign so that you unlock monthly reset
beeline?
rush/speedrun
rush
good word
na tho some of it was lvl diff im sure but she folded alarmingly fast once those siren planes that stick around for a while came out, idk
never heard beeline in my life
and fancy survives narby just fine for me despite said lvl diff so. clearly it was avi dmg surely
from xuanxu, aka rks, he tried harby last month. with sub
average mob fleet
1 FLEET REAL
amagi cv carries
alright so you only need 1 fleet 
depends on the month
not all arbiters are made equal 
cope
isnt this month like the hardest one tho 
but all ARE one shottable depending on your criteria
wait im dumb, they did it last month
well dfg said last month 
well, you still need full crossfleet and sub so not really one fleeting, but anyway the point is amagi with meta gears and no need to change, so QoL doesn't drop 
for based players yea
is it one fleet with full crossfleet and sub
the real one fleet is just one fleet
no sub no xfleet
Medium shield is usually the hardest but harby are usually easy asf . Eagle and Sakura dominate harbys
we are not there yet. can't really one fleet kill all harby
also current one fleet setups are not as fast
rainbow preload carrier when
alsace cv conversion surely 
but u had to manual it this month 
easy 
"Medium shield is hardest but harby are usually easy asf " plus if I wanted to , pulling a Helena auto is easy , i wanted to test something

I was to stubborn on hvar and nahkimov 
I pulled a enty Yorky implacable last year for oneshot , too boring
what's this then 
is bb fleet one shot for this month harby possible 
Okay looks like I tried kearsarge , ragequitted , used Helena manual , then went for enty RNG 
Question cos I'm annoying
Do all shipyard ships have fate simulation cos I've had Plymouth for a while and after lvl 30 there's no option like others
what gear and ships
So it's cool if I just scrap the excess blueprints?
no, they'll get theirs eventually
if you want to sure,
but most people opt to keep extras
How many should I keep then
165 for pr, 215 for dr
if u keep the checkbox ticked the game wont let you scrap beyond what is needed for fate sim
Mainly just so I know what to aim for... Tyty
Is yuudachi worth retrofiting?
she's a good ship, the issue is you need to use spec core for her retro item
better to get one of the DDG retros though
tbh ddg retros need to spend core data which is also not really ideal. my take is pick your poison
and who you personally like more~
ddgs without missile are kinda
ask me how i know
Anyone know how to do this?
i would skip over yuudachi completely and only pick up ddg if u can spare the spec core and coredata cost
sandy takes prio for spec core over ddg tho so they prob end up on the backburner for a good while
How do u no
press help lala miss 5 times
Oh I didn’t know that was a feature
should i get this?
ive used chang chun without missile
and then benched her until i get a missile
hello, any tips for 14-4? I seemed to be having trouble killing enemy subs for my vanguard fleet. Any ways to improve it?
open a thread and post ur dock
Use Eldridge
+13 hedgehog
ah.. I don't have her and her retrofit item
who is better to max limit break first Shinano or new jersey?
shinana
I also don't have laffey II 
snn
Who are all of your URs?
aight
Limit break with bulins? Depends, maybe not even worth
Limit break with dupes? Likely Shinano
with the bulins
no dupes yet
