gameplay-help

[storm heron]

hard to keep their stats updated (?) just like pyronado or planes launching when concealed but cv is unconcealed before landing torps/bombs

[clever lance]

What’s tex support?

[soft raft]

^
more leaning to T0 untagged

[soft raft]

TEX but on the condition that she's being used for her support capabilities

[viscid swift]

I agree with Suchi's ratings

[barren tapir]

shes tex when utilizing her support abilities to their fullest

[storm heron]

I'm kinda lucky since the only place I find eld inconsistent is when my eld get one shot by enemy's alsace

[eternal moth]

Tier level: tEx > t0; support means she needs to be using her skills to be that tier

[clever lance]

Oh I was reading it was tex. Was supposed to be Tier EX my bad

[forest palm]

[white agate]

why is she only d in ex tho, won't she help a bit with rng dodging or is it that the rating refers only to hard ex and score?

[storm heron]

ex means highest score

[stark quiver]

Her skills are useless in EX lol
Game features disabled them

[barren tapir]

rainbow is disa bled in hard EX

[stark quiver]

And normal ex is too easy to care

[white agate]

not in easy tho, right?

ok,yeah then d is accurate if hard ex

[barren tapir]

idk. but while shes prolly good in normal/easy EX no one but newbies care about that cos its brainless unless you're new

[storm heron]

can u get score?

[stark quiver]

In normal? No

[barren tapir]

also since its endgame tierlist so they only care about hard EX cos endgame steamrolls normal EX

even 3 month old player does

[storm heron]

imagine getting #3ed by renhex

[white agate]

i mean, ex stage for event like roma has no hard mode, but is much more difficult than normal ex imo; i had that kind of ex stage in mind

[barren tapir]

old event only have hard EX

[white agate]

oh, that's why, i was only able to bring her to 20%

[clever lance]

What’s optimal gear for Eldridge

[cobalt rapids]

standard dd gear

[stark quiver]

100 Kai, imp quad, ur AA toolbox , whatever defense gear

[storm heron]

eldridge is kinda sus with gearing

[white agate]

wdym?

[storm heron]

i mean hard to see what kinda gun works for ger, aux can be flexible

[forest palm]

Twin 100 Kai would be more than enough

[storm heron]

gotta look at the tl for the hierarchy

[stark quiver]

Can technically get first , but too much rng involved

[white agate]

oh, i thought the gun for her was fast reload, but great fp compromise so rainbow dd gear lab was best?

[storm heron]

Waiting 24s is pain

[dreamy blade]

we are getting 10 or 20 more UR vouchers from dailies?

[eager mulch]

[white agate]

tuesday and wednesday so 20

update is on thursday

[storm heron]

20

[dreamy blade]

ok so if i have 280 now i'll be good then

[white agate]

just keep points and spend them all after the update, less stressful solution

[dreamy blade]

well yes but just want to make sure so i can safely stop farming event and go back to my home 12-4

[storm heron]

ifk i would not do that

I remember a meta ship being unobtainable after event ends although the shop was open, it was patched wuickly but still fear

[forest palm]

just casually hit 100k points

[white agate]

i decided to do it the day of the update since before i did it after the event at random , but once forgot with 20k points unspent

[latent pelican]

Hey guys, my 2nd day playing...I'm doing the new event (i saw z52's kit and she seems SO strong), and am trying to grind the UR vouchers. I finally managed to barely clear b3 (the SP stage wont unlock...i'm assuming its because I have to clear all the stages with 3 stars?), would my best way to grind the UR vouchers just to auto spam a3 over and over again, to buy the UR vouchers from the shop? The B stages are still kind of rough for me to auto. I did the daily/challenges too as much as I can.

[stark quiver]

Between d3 and 12-4 which is better for affinity grinding

[barren tapir]

the cheaper one id assume

[stark quiver]

Idk if I get more affinity for higher stages so

[barren tapir]

no its fixed

[viscid swift]

to access SP you need to clear D3, hard mode of B3 which I presume you can't do

anyway, try getting B3 down to safe and grind there

[rigid onyx]

Make sure you do the minigame, which will leave you with 95 more tokens needed. I think you can do the daily missions for the next 2 days (15 total, including today)to leave you with 80 more required. You could loop b3 for a while to get the necessary tokens.

[rain vine]

only 2 more days on the event

[latent pelican]

Will look for the minigame! thanks so much

[rigid onyx]

its just under the events tab; i dont even do the minigame for the full time i quit out after a second and it counts as an attempt to get rewards

[latent pelican]

ahh gotcha! Ty ^^

[versed dagger]

fixed

[stark quiver]

Bruh I spent all my oil on 12-4

[soft raft]

you need to clear D3 not B3 to unlock SP

also in regards to how to get to D

[storm heron]

aren't they 2nd day players

[opaque karma]

is hipper meta good

[stark quiver]

She’s ok

[soft raft]

nothing too special

[jaunty glade]

anyone have a good z52 build they can share or know another ship that is similar that I can use as a reference?\

[atomic abyss]

Blue 76 if you lack the gold gun

[dreamy blade]

for bossing if i dont have an la-9 what plane do i use in amagi's 1st slot? helldiver? or flapjack

[cobalt rapids]

depends on boss

[storm heron]

if it's not heavy, you can try using bfg

[dreamy blade]

for heavy/maihou

[cobalt rapids]

use hvars vs light
bf vs med
tenrai vs heavy

[storm heron]

tenrai > helldiver then

[dreamy blade]

then double tb in the other 2 slots right

[atomic abyss]

Well ye, conv TB

[dreamy blade]

uhh does it matter to have them be the same e.g. can i use ryusei+saiun, it's just a timing issue?

[vital rune]

Hello fellow commanders. I wanted to start the game but I see I've missed ur laffey. Any chance of her returning?

[storm heron]

ideally you would want the third slot (the one with 3 x 160 planes) have a bigger tb than the second slot, but consider timing issue too

[stark quiver]

Yah, give it a year

[storm heron]

at least a year from now

[vital rune]

Anything for laffey

[dreamy blade]

so this would work with Helena right, but desyncs for the 3rd strike

[vital rune]

THANKS!! Imma go slave the game now

[storm heron]

hold on let's see

[soft raft]

She first ran last year
at earliest mid/late next year is my best guesstimate

[vital rune]

Enough time to save

[stark quiver]

Make it faster

[storm heron]

so second strike
1.5s (stage delay) + 2* 22.92s = 47.34
ryuusei's torp takes 3.5 s, so no sync unfortunately

[stark quiver]

First off, what is this for

[dreamy blade]

ok so if i dont have the timing aux i have to swap the ryusei for another saiun kai?

[dreamy blade]

heavy boss/maihou

[storm heron]

idk if that's gonna be enough

[stark quiver]

Try it out

[storm heron]

oh yea try looking at the numbers

tbh it's a minor optimization but oh well, not like it takes any gold plates

[dreamy blade]

yeah i'll just mess with the calculator first

how long do other torps take to land if ryusei is 3.5sec

[viscid swift]

You know she was free from her event right?

[vital rune]

I've yet to start & sm1 told me I missed her UR

[stark quiver]

She’s shop UR

[vital rune]

Oh

[rigid onyx]

There's enough time to save for every UR in the game

This game is only a gacha for those that dont do dailies

[sweet delta]

depends on the enemy's distance, but you can generalize it to Saiun 3.5, ryuusei 4, ju87d 4, vit2 4.5

[vital rune]

Last question, are builders required? Like do they heavily impact yr acc?

Guilds

[viscid swift]

uh what, what are "builders"

[storm heron]

omg what 4.5s

[vital rune]

Idk why it auto corrected to build

[viscid swift]

they're not required but they're free resources for minimal effort so I don't know why you'd ignore them

[dreamy blade]

oh are there no cats in meta showdown

[drifting light]

Hi, does this also give double the ships xp or is just for clear rewards?

[vital rune]

Ehhh sometimes I forget the game exist & know guilds don't like that

[dreamy blade]

doubles everything

you get everything (including morale loss) as if you did 2 runs, it just saves time

[drifting light]

Oh ok nice, i need to farm some ships exp for shipyard data collection

[storm heron]

yea guilds leader be not online for 1 year but when we inactive for 3 days we just get kicked

[white agate]

well, now may not be the time; hvar is more important

[storm heron]

how important do you guys says hvar for new player?

[queen jackal]

whats the coin soft cap limit?

[storm heron]

whatever's written there

[white agate]

i mean, he can farm hvar and exp pr for ships in 9 days

[storm heron]

true true, I was just asking if a new player you know... should like try lowcosting d3

[livid thunder]

Why is the purple SB2C helldiver better than all the yellow dive bombers?

[viscid swift]

it does more damage than all of them, pretty simple

[viscid swift]

depends on a, if they can, and b are they willing to commit to such a grind

[livid thunder]

Yeah but how does it do more damage is the question XD

[white agate]

it got better numbers

[dreamy blade]

you can call it developer oversight. they forgot to give the good bombs to the yellow ones

[viscid swift]

a combination of bomb damage and hit rate of said bombs

[livid thunder]

K… brb

[queen jackal]

oops i mean the hardcap

[storm heron]

600k

[dreamy blade]

similar to how the purple 406 mk6 outperforms a lot of the gold bb guns

[viscid swift]

it has just better numbers/stats, nothing terribly complicated about it

[storm heron]

or in other words, as other explanations in the game is, by math

[livid thunder]

So is this the best I can do?

[kind slate]

Can a fleet in opsi recover resolve for another fleet?

[viscid swift]

no

[storm heron]

give her z52 a faster gun, a better anti air,

[viscid swift]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Single_76mm_(3"/50_caliber_gun)#tabber-tabpanel-Type_3-0
use this gun on Z52

[stark quiver]

They’re ok, prolly not as useful

[livid thunder]

… not that one again Xd

[worldly pewter]

what is the range of that AA gun on z52 ?

[livid thunder]

This hurts my soul a little XD

[livid thunder]

Idk

[viscid swift]

poor

[storm heron]

give her these AA guns, the higher the better

[livid thunder]

30?

[viscid swift]

anyway, use this AA gun on Z52
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Twin_113mm_AA_(QF_Mark_I)#tabber-tabpanel-Type_3-0

[storm heron]

I don't think abdou is asking you in particular there, dw about it

[viscid swift]

and I meant no as a response to "So is this the best I can do?"

[dreamy blade]

so with this 2nd strike would be 46.26 with 3.5secs for saiuns to land, so should work?

[livid thunder]

Is that good now?

[viscid swift]

the blue version not the grey version

[livid thunder]

There is one?

[viscid swift]

yes

[storm heron]

it should be, there are a bit of leeway too

but then how's the other CV even gonna do, if the fastest CV use 2 saiuns

[dreamy blade]

[storm heron]

at that point might as well just stop trying to sync to helena and use something else no?

[storm heron]

do you have any better vanguard?

[worldly pewter]

for rumey u want to put on her the standard fighter for mobbing which is the golden hellcat or the purple f4u corsair
although the seafang can work too but me no like it so much because of the lower aa abilities

[storm heron]

cheeky have you dropped Mipper from the event? who farms D3 for 65k got like 4/4 crystal for some reason, but who farms B3 for 75k haven't got any Mipper. Or am I missing something?

[barren tapir]

ectl ranks gold 2x500lb over purple corsair

[worldly pewter]

seafang is better than corsair in AA ?

[viscid swift]

you were saying?

[barren tapir]

do ppl minmax fighter AA?

[viscid swift]

last 2 columns are AA DPS and burst

[viscid swift]

not really

at this level anyway

[barren tapir]

yeah i was thinking just use seafang for more avi stat tbh

they all get replaced by flapjack later on for both aa and bombs for campaign regardless

[viscid swift]

I haven't gotten a Hipper drop from B3 no

[barren tapir]

ig you can argue you can regain the corsair plates

[storm heron]

welp maybe there's a bug or the chance is jsut exponentially small for some reason

[dreamy blade]

and i can confirm i've gotten 6 mippers farming d3

[barren tapir]

but this assumes they have a corsair, theyre strangely rare from boxes

[atomic abyss]

As long as it's a 2x500lb fighter who cares

Use what you actually have lol

[viscid swift]

yep

[atomic abyss]

And let's be real

You are more likely to have purple corsairs than gold hellcats/seafangs anyways

[barren tapir]

[dreamy blade]

i have 6 corsairs/flapjacks, 4 seafangs, 0 hellcats

[random pebble]

are there anything like guide to what to do at what level and what to avoid

[barren tapir]

i have ummm more combined hellcat+seafang than i do purple corsair... even counting the flapjacks i made from them

[atomic abyss]

80% of gears from gold tech boxes are purple

[dreamy blade]

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

[barren tapir]

[atomic abyss]

So naturally, you get more corsairs

[barren tapir]

wdym no, i literally do its so weird but yeah

[worldly pewter]

yeah TBH i didn't find luck with corsaire too

[atomic abyss]

If you have more hellcats don't complain

[random pebble]

ty

[storm heron]

but there are many purple uss weapon and only a few gold uss weapon

[stark quiver]

Misclick

[barren tapir]

iirc i have 3 hellcat, 3 seafang, 3 flapjacks and 1 corsair

[atomic abyss]

If you have the liberty to be crafting flapjacks

Surely you have enough boxes lying around to open

[barren tapir]

honestly true, i stopped opening purples a while ago

[stark quiver]

What’s the drop chances

[storm heron]

also isn't it 15 85?

[barren tapir]

15 85 for gold box yea

[boreal wagon]

tech boxes tell u their chances now

[atomic abyss]

You have an 80% chance of getting a purple gear from opening gold boxes iirc

Fine 85%

[barren tapir]

25 75 for purple box

[atomic abyss]

So the maff already makes sense

[stark quiver]

I haven’t opened any tech boxes for actual gear since 2022

[glass hull]

Anybody know the stat requirements for the Businesswoman TB?

[atomic abyss]

The what

[willow crag]

whats Musashi's skill leveling priority?

[rigid onyx]

who is this

[worldly pewter]

but u are new though

[stark quiver]

Luna

[south sequoia]

Luna from the DoA collab

[viscid swift]

Luna from the DOA collab

[hallow mountain]

Should I build Baltimore?
I need another CL

[atomic abyss]

All ships you use shd have max skills
So it doesn't really matter what order you level them in
Barrage first tho ig

[atomic abyss]

Maybe
She's a CA not CL

[hallow mountain]

oh right ye

i need another ca for america farming

[storm heron]

[willow crag]

sure then Ill go do barrage first, any unique equipment preference? Or do I just chuck in the usual meta and the black and white shell?

[barren tapir]

equipped off

[atomic abyss]

If you read her skills she REALLY wants a japanese main gun
So purple twin 410
Rest the standard

[barren tapir]

my memory was right 6 to 4 ratio

[willow crag]

purple twin 410? Not the musashi gun?

[atomic abyss]

Musashi gun is ass lmao

[viscid swift]

no

[burnt bramble]

...dq fuq is that first one?

[atomic abyss]

Flapjack

[dreamy blade]

Yeah i wouldn't even know the gold hellcat exists if it wasn't for this chat

[worldly pewter]

pancake

[barren tapir]

whales

[atomic abyss]

Get to crafting tigercats then

[barren tapir]

i swear it looks like a whale to me lol

[worldly pewter]

the japanese nickname for it is pankeeki

[viscid swift]

Meh

[stark quiver]

What were the tigercat mats again

[atomic abyss]

Something something fox mine something something

[viscid swift]

not T2 Ordinance reports

[atomic abyss]

Glory glory electronics

[stark quiver]

Electronics

[barren tapir]

compare

trades t2 ords for more plane prints

but flapjack is marginally better

[worldly pewter]

where did ur electronics go

[barren tapir]

into my 2nd wyvern

[atomic abyss]

I mean you're the one with a billion hellcats that's why I suggested

[storm heron]

can confirm

[barren tapir]

ya no worries

i never actually compared the costs of them

[worldly pewter]

wait until u want to craft the french aa gun

[viscid swift]

meh, by that point you should be swimming in mats anyway

[worldly pewter]

when i did the w15 challenge i wasn't exactly swimming in them

[barren tapir]

then you did w15 too early

[worldly pewter]

that is the point of the challenge

[stark quiver]

I disagree, 2 UR aa and I’m only at 200 electronics

[storm heron]

bro manualed w15

[viscid swift]

I'm at 6 and over 1k still

[barren tapir]

make more, bling out all your ships

[forest palm]

I have 6 UR AA, and well over 1k electronics

[stark quiver]

On a side note, how long have you been doing ops for , cuz 6 is a lot

[worldly pewter]

who manualed w15 ? i head kimo did it and fail or something

[viscid swift]

should be over 2 years at this point

[barren tapir]

the CN player who cleared it in 55 days did

i watched the whole thing and

[storm heron]

dang auto

[forest palm]

like if you've been around long enough you're going to be resource rich if you aren't stupid about things

[barren tapir]

if your manual worse than auto game is screaming skill issue at you

[sharp socket]

UR AA is like 90 electronics per iirc?

[viscid swift]

60

[forest palm]

if you don't have the trash can

[viscid swift]

81 if you craft the trashcan as well

[worldly pewter]

although i was prepared to manual at the worst case
pilica the 🕹️ master taught me well for harbiter and against rodney but i didn't need it somehow it cleared and left it 18% because it was kinda of a miracle

[barren tapir]

so far away

[stark quiver]

For some reason , I’ve been doing it for about a year or less and only at 2, and no mats lol

[worldly pewter]

10 months here and i think it should be alright at this point

[barren tapir]

something something marathon not a sprint

[worldly pewter]

celerio me wait for ur w15 clear

[sharp socket]

mine will be in late jan if things don't go wrong

[barren tapir]

according to my google sheet i have a total of 339 electronics obtained (on hand + spent), tho its slightly skewed by me turning all my selectors into electronics.

ive played opsi for about 2.5 months so we can say maybe 120 electronics per month?

[stark quiver]

You guys make sheets for these things?

[barren tapir]

i am a nerd™️

[cobalt rapids]

according to the gearlab tool im at 107 electronics per month also skewed by selectors spent on em

[barren tapir]

there's a gearlab tool

[forest palm]

[cobalt rapids]

#gameplay-help message its a spreadsheet

[forest palm]

I tend to use 134s more

[barren tapir]

shit that is genius ty

[viscid swift]

smh not all +13

[forest palm]

the funnier part is I have the plates to do that

[viscid swift]

and this is why I actually don't consider myself old

[forest palm]

but ya this is basically what long play time gets you

[worldly pewter]

TBH i m not sure if i have enough purple plates to +10 that amount of oxy

[barren tapir]

now to fill this in this is much better than my hodgepodge tracker i only had the 6 mats not the prints and whatnot thanks for sharing

[storm heron]

oxymor-

[jaunty glen]

hey guys, I don't understand, what is this?

[sharp socket]

raise TB to be successful, gets you a secretary

[storm heron]

#ask-your-tb-problems-here

[sinful escarp]

daughter raising simulator that will give you tb as a secretary

[sharp socket]

has no other gameplay related rewards

[jaunty glen]

i don't be father 🐴

[jaunty glen]

so she is useless

[forest palm]

ya it's a mode you can forget about

[stark quiver]

I gave up on her

[forest palm]

I played with it on the first day then didn't bother with it
just like WA funny enough

[storm heron]

I bought milk

cmon how is that notfunny

[stark quiver]

I’ll prolly find myself going back after completing other game stuff

[sinful escarp]

i just got the ending with her in a ponytail and left it alone

[night pumice]

I haven't touched the game for a month or so now and just realized the ur event is almost over - are any of the ships worth pulling/grinding for in these last couple of days

[sinful escarp]

the 2 UR at the very least

z52 is thought to be a very good all rounder

[jaunty glen]

I still have questions, so I want to do a research on kearsarge but for this I need eagle Union tech points, and as I understand, I get these points by increasing the level of characters from the same fraction or by obtaining them, the question is how much should I pump them up, So I upgraded one ship and zero points, how much should I upgrade them?

[night pumice]

would I have time to grind out the ticket ur though in 2 days

[sinful escarp]

if you have the oil and ships i think its possible

[storm heron]

you only get those points on milestones, such as Obtaining, Max Limit Break, and Level 120

[forest palm]

it's either Max Limit Breaking a Ship of the Faction, or Attaining a Ship of the Faction

[soft raft]

/fleettech at least lvl 70 for MLB, lvl 120 takes quite a while

[odd root]

Bridal Z23

Q: How do I get more fleet technology points?
You get fleet tech points by:

1. Collecting the ship (~20%)
2. Max Limit Breaking it (~45%)
3. 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

[storm heron]

how?

[jaunty glen]

i want to cry... it's like being slave...

[stone forge]

Guys i need help

[soft raft]

if you're looking to get tech points asap, are you really gonna bother with 120

[soft raft]

go ahead and ask

[jaunty glen]

but i will do it...

[storm heron]

anyways I'm eepy, good morning gph

[jaunty glen]

by the way i got Fritz from 2 pulls, so she is good or not? and in what teama she will be good?

[stone forge]

I have an Azur Lane account, and I tried logging in through Yostar. When I did, I wanted to access the Amagi server, where my progress is, but it's not there.

[rigid onyx]

Fritz, like every other main fleet ship, is not good until mlb, but like all gacha URs is a cut above most ships

[stark quiver]

W15 support, good at medium/light

[worldly pewter]

if u were in gbf gph u would get insta muted because of salt

[jaunty glen]

thanks

[soft raft]

Have you already double checked that you're logged in properly? Have you tried other servers in case you remembered incorrectly?

If so and still no bueno, do you have your UID written down anywhere?

[rigid onyx]

liverolling seems more acceptable in AL because the gacha is so generous

[soft raft]

liverolling?

[rigid onyx]

just stating your pulls in chat (incl. on socials)

[soft raft]

bold of you to assume people really give much of a shit to in-game chat ngl

[stark quiver]

Idek where in game chat is anymore
Last time I clicked on it , there was a ton of racists

[soft raft]

and for this server, we have #trophy-room for pulls, especially when a event intially goes live

[stone forge]

It's strange because I logged in on October 31 without any issues. I recently came back to the game, logged in normally, but it's not on Amagi. Unfortunately, I don't remember my UID 😦
Only i rembember my nickname

[soft raft]

At that point you'll have to go email customer support ([e-mail]) , cant really help you any further here

If possible, any recipets of in-game purchases will help too

[hollow gust]

~~Why do people flex gatcha anyway , hard to flex when the rates are that high ~~

[jaunty glen]

also about that i read that of you will do research in research academy it will also gave you points but i am not sure if i understood it right

[stone forge]

Thanks

[blissful hamlet]

Any estimate when will tenrai be added on gear lab? Or just gear lab update in general?

[stark quiver]

Around a month from now

[blissful hamlet]

[livid thunder]

Is the breguet better or worse than the Aichi for single target ? I am using her against meta taihou

[hollow gust]

Breguet is a parallel mobbing tb, never going to match Ryuusei

[livid thunder]

Oh I thought it was aimed XD

So this is correct ?

[hollow gust]

Well you mix tbs for the best timing

And haku can equip tb for first slot

[livid thunder]

Tbs?

[hollow gust]

Torpedo bomber

[livid thunder]

Oh ok

[stray vigil]

I might be missing one? Do I need to do something obscure to get it?

[ivory pawn]

Just keep pulling on the gachapon.

Literally one more pull.

[barren tapir]

ingame tasks done?

[barren tapir]

then ig you started it too late to finish, my condolences

[stray vigil]

I guess I missed 1

[sweet delta]

A bit more than 1

[stark quiver]

Sushi did u do it on time

[quartz jungle]

Could have started on the 26th and still have gotten all

[stray vigil]

I'm truly flabbergasted at what I could've done wrong

[humble solar]

Anyone got link for core shop priorities?

[white agate]

i mean, by doing all tasks you could in 5 days so i guess they did

[quartz jungle]

You started too late on the 27th it seems

[stray vigil]

Im literrally missing 1

[viscid swift]

were you doing the web tasks daily because they do refresh

[eager mulch]

Protocore, spec core, or core data

[stray vigil]

I must have missclicked?

I did them as often as I could

Actually scammed

[viscid swift]

hardly

[humble solar]

Core data i think

[barren tapir]

you had 7 days and can finish it in 4 or 5 days iirc. again my condolences but you must've started too late or missed too many days

[vale spindle]

what tempesta gear is in core data or other permanent shops

[elfin hollow]

again not gamplay sorry but I keep seeing youtube vids with ships voice lines for special touching. What are special touches?

[barren tapir]

12 pounder, sail component, round shot

[vale spindle]

when you tap on a ship in a specific spot you get special voice lines

[viscid swift]

take a guess as to which spot

[vale spindle]

depending on the ship these can range from wholesome to very yabai

[elfin hollow]

oh wow I had no idea thats a thing. In the lobby or in the dock?

[stark quiver]

Head pats are usually normal but uhh there are some special ones

[vale spindle]

as secretary so in the lobby

[stark quiver]

Secretary screen

[elfin hollow]

ok thank you Ill try that out haha

[barren tapir]

be nice to your shipgirls

[eager mulch]

then /coredata in #bot-spam

[humble solar]

I already have everything there...

[vale spindle]

Then its up to how much do you hate swapping gear around

if you notice theres gear that you use on multiple ships buy more copies so you dont have to swap them around as much

[sharp mesa]

I have no pr/dr ships constructed except st lou and kita. Almost done with anchorage. I’m not sure who to prioritize next

[sinful escarp]

for me i always buy white and black shells and also firebrand(not sure about the name, but the plane to make wyvern)

[vale spindle]

One of the coinable DR ships, like friedrich

[weary gust]

If it makes you feel better I didn't even know that existed.

What's the rewards from the gachapon thing?

[sharp mesa]

So I should focus on below series 5?

[stray vigil]

1500 gems if you get lucky...

[viscid swift]

a few k coins, a few dorm tokens, 4 cubes and a random draw for some additional prizes

[vale spindle]

RESEARCH FOCUS is separate from who you are getting requirements for in shipyard

[weary gust]

Oh. So nothing.

[vale spindle]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/research read this for more info

[sharp mesa]

Alright thanks

[humble solar]

Is the F4U or TBM good?

[vale spindle]

not really

tbm torpedo bomber is not useful nowadays
f4u is timing adjustment only which you likely dont need

[sharp mesa]

Isn’t the community tier list outdated as hell rn?

[forest palm]

it's only been like what...4 or so months at this point, the information on the ship section is still relevant for what it is

[eager mulch]

they’re up to date with prelims in their server

[forest palm]

that would require join that place

[sharp mesa]

Seems like it…

[eager mulch]

TRUE i hate that place

[quartz island]

is there a reliable one-shot team for Taihou META that I can copy?

[weary gust]

There's reliable 95% damage comps.

[eager mulch]

i am ectl’s biggest hater

[weary gust]

100% is basically luck at this point, either Helena scan rng or crit/unzen torps hitting rng.

[sweet delta]

There are 95% reliable fleets that you may or may not be able to copy

[quartz island]

I suppose that's good enough for me; I probably have all the ships, gear, and fleet tech already

[sweet delta]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/460645783021289472/1321705876767113216/4619320B-8A32-4AF7-A24F-5E82AB164E70.png?ex=677424c5&is=6772d345&hm=ef98e3146438bc7e0069e334769fd0dfd1a39285249dad6670495477239d978d&

[weary gust]

I just threw in sirius instead of unzen.

[sweet delta]

One of the best without z52, it's like 85% with max tech

[weary gust]

Vanguard pressure is so stupidly low that helena is tanking just fine lol.

[viscid swift]

yet Mogador still manages to die somehow

[weary gust]

That happens when you go right up to the face of the enemy and get shotgunned. Repeatedly.

[forest palm]

almost as if throwing yourself at the enemy, and eating most of the bullets kills you

[sharp mesa]

What’s the first plane shinano has and where can I get it?

[soft raft]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Nakajima_C6N_Saiun_(Model_21_Prototype)

[forest palm]

Saiun Kai from PR4

[sharp mesa]

Alright thanks

[weary gust]

Why does Shinano have that elixer aux

[eager mulch]

for when she gets thirsty

[weary gust]

I guess it's basically the same thing as a steam catapult but seems weird to put in there for the example fleet ...

[viscid swift]

it's basically just a catapult with extra flavor for ryza ships

[obsidian ivy]

Is there a replacement for RPG interface

[eager mulch]

toolbox

or a damage aux probs better

[sweet delta]

It's my fleet, not an example fleet

[lament hare]

i just started playing again after 2 years are there any guides to refresh on stuff also is retarting perhaps better

[sinful escarp]

just continue your old account

[lament hare]

alright, also can i ask for fleets maybe I don't know anymore

[weary gust]

Fleets for what?

And don't say "in general". There is no in general.

[lament hare]

oh alright im just doing the event right now ill ask again when it gets hard

[sinful escarp]

it doesnt
your ships are more than enough to clear them

[weary gust]

With those ship levels you could put together pretty much any fleet and do d3 without thinking about it. Even SP would be mindlessly easy (probably)

[hollow gust]

SP is a bit iffy since level req

[weary gust]

Only 110, most of his leveled ships are 115+.

[grizzled sundial]

Did they increase the rate of gold gear drop in the final stage of new events ? I keep getting the FDG gun in this event way more than Izumo gun in Musashi event .

[hollow gust]

oh he posted his higher level in 2nd ss

[hollow gust]

RNG

Should've been saving the luck for hvar

[rigid onyx]

is it confirmed that the hvar drop rates a few years back were bugged or were they intended to be higher

[sinful escarp]

is the event ending next MT?

[full hinge]

very dumb question but what time is the global daily reset

[weary gust]

It was confirmed. They kept the bugged rates rather than revert them, so the question is whether the rerun will have the same rate as initial run.

[soft raft]

in like 4 hours

[full hinge]

tyty

[stark quiver]

how much purple books do i need to bring a ship from lvl 100 to 120

[rigid onyx]

How many prints is it per hvar? 25?

[weary gust]

Purple books are whale territory to have any large number of them anyways, question should be how many blue books.

[undone plover]

141 for non rainbow
169 for rainbow

[hollow gust]

Hvars were an accident, they decided to keep it to be nice

[stark quiver]

thx, so the lvl 70 pack covers for it, how abt 0-100?

[undone plover]

75 for non rainbow

[stark quiver]

cuz when i get jintM ima be too lazy to get her to high lvl from grinding

[undone plover]

doesnt have to be purple books

[stark quiver]

true

[hallow mountain]

Who's the best units for anti-air stuff

I finally got into Ch12 after 5 years

is it San Diego

[little tree]

Sandy

[stark quiver]

san diego retro, guam, laffey 2, shimanto, etc

[little tree]

Cheshire is okay

[soft raft]

Z52

[hallow mountain]

aight thanks

[little tree]

Z52 is an aa carry?

[hallow mountain]

wut she's good for AA?

also does anyone have a good updated tier list for Dec

i wanna see how Fritz and 52 rank

[stark quiver]

theyre both good

[full hinge]

is early game like... chapter 3ish supposed to make you actually grind, i was under the impression a single fleet could at least vibe till c9 farming

unless there's like a notable mechanic im missing

but im getting washed in c3

[hallow mountain]

nice thanks

[soft raft]

yes you are correct that you can one fleet until W9, but this is of course assuming you properly gear and raise your ships

[stark quiver]

overlevel

[hallow mountain]

and also ammo

[soft raft]

Out Of Ammo doesnt really matter that much until W14-15 if you properly gear and raise your fleet

[undone plover]

show your fleet
it might give us an idea what is wrong

[full hinge]

sure one sec

is probably a gear thing if i had to guess cuz i havent like enhanced any gear/opened a lot of gear crates?

was roughly following the guide in terms of like, which units to put on team

[undone plover]

sure having better gear would help
but also start limit breaking your ships
use the purple bulins
especially on portland and unicorn and z23

team looks fine
follow the guide for equipment as well and u will be fine
start limit breaking stuff and u will have no issue

[full hinge]

ye after this reply i noticed i completely missed the gear section of the guide oops

noted on LBs too

cant LB uni or z23 further rn but i can def lb portland more i think?

uni needs level 30 for next LB and z23 needs 70 i think?

[rotund creek]

you should make a thread so people will make it easier time to answer your questions

[undone plover]

yep those level requirements are normal
penny would be next if u still have bulins

[full hinge]

uhhh i think im good on questions for now but if i have more i’ll def make a thread for ease next time, ty for tip

[undone plover]

should start retrofitting unicorn as well
and do your hard mode maps for retrofit prints
do 1-4 or 2-4 or 3-4 for CV prints for unicorn

chat is slow rn so no worries but if u ever have a lot of questions and the chat is busy feel free to make a thread

[elder lily]

Twin 410mm Kai
Or
Triple 460 mm
For musashi

[atomic abyss]

410 kai
Almost never the 460

[full hinge]

ty btw

[elder lily]

Who uses the 460
I have 2

[atomic abyss]

No one

[stark quiver]

no one, unless a boss requires

[atomic abyss]

It's a niche use gun

[soft raft]

realistically no one
Maybe Alsace or UvH (Off-Flag only)

but it's hyper niche

[stark quiver]

can that gun even get 4 shots off in harby

[atomic abyss]

Soyuz for syncing with CVs can consider it too I guess

Alpha, you can barely get 4 shots off even with champy if you lack rld tech and used hpfcr

[elder lily]

F***
I saw a rainbow gun and raised it to +10
Back then

[stark quiver]

yea thats fine

[atomic abyss]

All that rainbows isnt necessarily good

[stark quiver]

bro what

[atomic abyss]

Ok well that's for meta to be fair

[soft raft]

as long as you didnt go past +10 that's fine

[little tree]

**looks at warspite retro **

[atomic abyss]

Looks at oxy torps

[stark quiver]

now dont worry i have 17 rld

[little tree]

The oxygen torpedo were born tired

[elder lily]

So I've procrastinated on opsi
Do I get better materials further in opsi?

[stark quiver]

after completing the ops story, you get the option to bvuy good rewards

[forest palm]

getting mats out of ops is more a matter of reptition than anything else, do nothing get nothing, actively participate and you'll start to gain

[soft raft]

basically go grind C5 zones

[elder lily]

Oohhh
How long is ops story
I just unlocked Liverpool

[little tree]

~~ i rember first arbiter kille gave me 5 ur plane plans ~~ not sure if that's first time kill thing

[stark quiver]

5 chapters

[elder lily]

Well looks like I know what I'm doing for new years day

[stark quiver]

[fiery swan]

Event ends tomorrow?

[uneven cave]

How does Eldridge do on the priority list for both new players and mid game players

[sweet delta]

new players dont have Wattage Amplifier

[stark quiver]

pretty useful for mid game ppl

[sweet delta]

for those who do, eldridge is near top priority

[uneven cave]

What if hypothetically it became available on spec core shop

I see

[sweet delta]

first merit thing they should buy

[rapid grail]

her utility top tier, must buy

[stark quiver]

Jan 1, 11pm pt

[uneven cave]

What even is her utility, which ones actually matter

[fleet berry]

||Starshine is argumentative, pedantic, and PITA. Got into arguments because he is adamant that W12 is too difficult and too demanding for newer players. Tbf, Spize can be as argumentative too, but it's usually him trolling Starshine. Not like I'm not a pedantic argumentative PITA too, but at least I realised that...||

[elder lily]

Well I have all day to grind tomorrow for the event

[stark quiver]

she has a slow, she is very good at keeping your vanguards alive, free +10 hedgehog

[uneven cave]

So she's perfectly fine to use in W14 without hedgehog?

[bold cove]

Tmr is last day of event, right?

[forest palm]

[pseudo hearth]

How long from now until the UR event ends?

Oh, wait, I realized it was just answered. Nevermind

[polar lion]

Rainbow mag quint or gold imp mag quad better for mobbing?

[atomic abyss]

Rainbow quint mag = Gold quad mag
Gold improved quad mag > both

[polar lion]

Y?

[elfin hollow]

What should i do now

[atomic abyss]

Just higher damage

[atomic abyss]

Finish up gathering exp for her?

[elfin hollow]

Nope

[atomic abyss]

I mean

That's what you should do

I'm not sure why you're asking that question

[elfin hollow]

Can i ask how to farm exp fast

[atomic abyss]

Use 3 US frontliners, use them in battle
If event is up, event
If event is not up, 12-1/4

That's how you do it "fast"

[elfin hollow]

Alr

[brave trail]

@atomic abyss yo, how much tenrai should i craft

[atomic abyss]

Get 1 from protocore shop, 1 from research
Though it's probably gonna get added to gear lab soon so

[brave trail]

wait rlly? dayum

[atomic abyss]

You're recommended to have 2 at least

Ideally 3
Tho the 3rd is lower priority than your first plygun and LA-9

[brave trail]

alright

[uneven cave]

I know I asked this like multiple times before but
anti-med CV includes Rumey with 2 la-9 and Nakhi with la-9 and 2 TB?

[atomic abyss]

Both have double LA-9 ideally

Rocket > TB for med if your name isn't amagi

[uneven cave]

aight

[final heart]

I just got saratoga from building but I already got fritz yesterday so is she going to be benched for now?

[brave trail]

can you get her retrofit?

[atomic abyss]

If you don't have the means to MLB fritz
Fritz would have been benched for an extended period of time to begin with

[tropic tusk]

UR not mlb = trash

[atomic abyss]

Anything not mlb is trash

[final heart]

I haven't finished retrofitting nelson yet

[glossy granite]

Yo ender i finally got unicorn retrofit lol, who do i retrofit first between laffey, portland and helena?

[atomic abyss]

Port

Helena is low priority

[tropic tusk]

portland is part of ur beginner mission

[glossy granite]

Bet

What would i have done without ender, i wouldnt be farming consistently for sure

[tropic tusk]

[atomic abyss]

This game is a marathon

[brave trail]

play how you like but retro saratoga > retro nelson imo

[atomic abyss]

Not a sprint

[wind hazel]

brother

[glossy granite]

I FORGOT 😭 IM SORRY

[tropic tusk]

isnt nelson then sara? since sara u wont be using it in the beginning

[final heart]

what if I was an absolute baller and got fritz MLB in a few days?

[brave trail]

then gg king

[plain saffron]

Then use both

[brave trail]

[tropic tusk]

would u have the money to do that tho

[final heart]

so saratoga in future fleet 2?

[tropic tusk]

1.5k per lb

last lb is like 3k? migth be wrong

[atomic abyss]

Sara and Nelson are both good

[final heart]

I don't know if I have enough but I have a bunch of beginner stuff I can probably use

[atomic abyss]

I'd argue nelson needs her retro more anyways

Bump up the barrage proc rate to 70%

Sara has her augment

[brave trail]

now that i think of it
sara needs her aug too

[tropic tusk]

also mail has money if u never checked mail storage

[plain saffron]

Fritz boss sara mob likely

Test

[final heart]

I took everything out and I wasted it on research like a dumbass

[tropic tusk]

research isnt that bad "if u did it correctly"

[brave trail]

please tell me use used the discounts

[final heart]

I only did the 1500 coins ones

[tropic tusk]

nice

[soft raft]

that's coining not the actual researches

[brave trail]

then great

[final heart]

and some occasionally free ones that didn't have any condition

[tropic tusk]

but on which pr

[soft raft]

yeesh those are dogshit
but tolerable if you lack enough coins

[brave trail]

oh yeah smh i was thinking abt the coining wtf

[final heart]

PR5 at first but someone told me to switch to PR4 a few weeks ago

[soft raft]

/research for reference

[tropic tusk]

yes thats good

[odd root]

credit: Newbie#1553 and Lunar#7777 https://i.imgur.com/wGQkqJk.jpg

[atomic abyss]

Just do 4 first till we get 4 fully coinable

Tho even then I'd still argue 4 is better gear wise...

[final heart]

I wanna save as much as possible these days cus building takes a lot of coins

[grizzled sundial]

Is Z52 skills which building up her Thunder heart stack and gain benefits justified enough to give her the fast peashooter gun instead of a real damaging DD gun ?

[brave trail]

i thought you already got fritz

[tropic tusk]

wait ur builing light daily right?

[final heart]

I've been building as much as possible on event banner but yeah, before event I was building 1x light

[tropic tusk]

if u got the banner UR u should just go back to light , unless u want all ship from banner

never chase pity if ur f2p

[brave trail]

^^^

[final heart]

I'm a greedy person and Iron Blood women made me weak

[tropic tusk]

just so u know next week theres another UR rerun

[brave trail]

i mean i could tell from your red hood anniversary pfp

[tropic tusk]

so good luck with ur german woman making u weak

[glossy granite]

Is there an update going on?

[brave trail]

[final heart]

what's one more bad decision, am I right?
(I'm so cooked)

[glossy granite]

My game doing weird stuff

Why is it ''Cheking for updates'' in the loading screen

[tropic tusk]

u need 400 cube for pity just letting u know

[atomic abyss]

Yes

Tho her gun damage isn't ass so

Best middle ground would be the rather expensive gold single 113

Otherwise the 100kai if you have one lying around

[soft raft]

they sometimes put out hotfixes every now and then

Also maybe your specific app missed one earlier or whatever so it's checking to make sure or something idk
Either way it shouldnt be too much of a issue unless you suddenly cant load into the main menu

[final heart]

I have 46 cubes and a dream

[glossy granite]

Now it works

[brave trail]

[polar lion]

100kai or single 113 better for Z52?

[forest palm]

113

[atomic abyss]

Single 113
Give the 100 Kai to something that really wants the DPS

[glossy granite]

Really noob question but what is exercise? Is it the pvp gamemode? I may have played one game but it was like 3-4 years ago 😅

[atomic abyss]

PvP

[glossy granite]

Is it a must do?

[polar lion]

Owh i thot dat 170% eff makes her one of those that wants the dps too

[atomic abyss]

No

[brave trail]

the pvp gamemode kinda dead

[hollow gust]

Z52 wants a fast firing gun

[atomic abyss]

In most cases, that would be true

The issue is z52's aoa + skill are even more cracked

[final heart]

speaking of MLB, if I can't MLB my Z52 then she's also benched too, right?

[atomic abyss]

Yes

[brave trail]

yes

[opaque gate]

what is the best torp for ancho?

[atomic abyss]

Another case of Itdependicitis

In this case, how often/when you want her smoke to come out

[polar lion]

Ooo

[forest palm]

if you're just leveling ships the LB doesn't necessarily matter for UR/DR/Meta, MLB really only matters so far as actual content

[atomic abyss]

If you just want as many smokes as possible, the blue twin torp (french I believe?)

If you want a specific timing you'll have to check

[opaque gate]

where to get it, is it from tech box?

[wind hazel]

research

[atomic abyss]

Kekw

[opaque gate]

it is not craftable iirc

[forest palm]

pretty sure you can grab them from french boxes...

[atomic abyss]

Yeah I think so too
I really cannot remember

[opaque gate]

okee tyy

[atomic abyss]

The purple triple one is in research

[opaque gate]

dev 30 later, what lvl is she feasible to use?

[wind hazel]

lol

[atomic abyss]

Ancho? 30

Fs5 is low prio

[opaque gate]

i mean what ship level

[atomic abyss]

I mean, it depends on where you're gonna use her or grind her?

[opaque gate]

can i use her if lvl 100? or is portland lvl 118 better at that point

[polar lion]

Y Fritz wants plygun instead of STAAG?

[forest palm]

So.....

[wind hazel]

wiki lying

[atomic abyss]

Stat stick for her ghost CA gun

[atomic abyss]

[polar lion]

Her ghost CA gun akshually useful? How useful?

[hollow gust]

Quite strong actually

[atomic abyss]

It's strong enough to ignore the CL gun entirely

[hollow gust]

As i said from the beginning , extremly strong campaign CV

[polar lion]

Wtfish

[atomic abyss]

Someone leave it in wiki feedback

I'll get to it in about 8h otherwise

[wind hazel]

gona yoink taz's screenshot

[polar lion]

So she wants flag or off?

[forest palm]

unless they decided to randomly shove new shit into French boxes, they do in fact drop

[atomic abyss]

Bb in flag if you're using Rumey in campaign so

Off

[opaque gate]

zMn where to get french boxes? i only have eagle royal sakura ib

[atomic abyss]

Medal shop, merit shop sometimes

[grizzled sundial]

Shop

[forest palm]

medal shop, at the bottom hidden away

[opaque gate]

ahh, thanm u

thanks*

[polar lion]

Her CA gun can still fire off cd everytime even on off?

[atomic abyss]

It's not meant to be for suicide boat interception

The range on it is extremely long
It's more like Odin's secondaries
To chip off production types from a long way out

[wind hazel]

go check whether you can craft it already or not. if you've been doing research regularly, chances are you have enough bp to craft it already. only requires 5

[polar lion]

Deym

[atomic abyss]

The CL gun slot itself is mostly a meme tho

Realistically, who tf would give Rumey a plygun

[tropic tusk]

wt will be the assum rerun UR after yk2?

[atomic abyss]

Even if you did have that many, you'd sooner give it to your BBs or yr Helena

[polar lion]

So which CL gun to put on her?

[opaque gate]

found it, thanks

[soft raft]

If Blucher rerun wasnt somewhere in the air as a possibility then yee Implac would be next

[grizzled sundial]

Shame she have no bonus if you give her AA with her skill and have to depend on the AA itself for bonus

[atomic abyss]

You put a STAAG

And get the hit bonus

[deep wing]

There is a lot to take in but now I assume I jsut push campaign rn?

[atomic abyss]

Yes

[storm heron]

what comand is this? /schedule?

[deep wing]

Till I hit a roadblock

[atomic abyss]

There is no command

[polar lion]

Owh

[atomic abyss]

It's @ blaster I guess

[deep wing]

Cause as a new player all of these stuff seem kind of overwhelming

[soft raft]

I have my own list in my own server
and I have a image of it that I can copy/paste at will if needed

[vale kite]

how do you normally farm these?
also is using them the preferred way of leveling ships?

[soft raft]

using lvl 100+ ships in combat

[storm heron]

[atomic abyss]

Simple
If event up, do event
If event not up, do campaign

If morale is low, do opsiren once you unlock it
Otherwise go touch grass

[tropic tusk]

nice nice thats good thx

[grizzled sundial]

Also daily raid , and weekly drop

[deep wing]

Good call thanks

[vale kite]

any combat?

[tropic tusk]

dont forget daily light or event pull

[soft raft]

mainly campaign since that's where you're doing the majority of your grind

[deep wing]

What is daily light or event pull?

[vale kite]

ok ok, tysm :3

[deep wing]

Like building of ships?

[soft raft]

event banner until you get the UR or whoever you want off of it when a event is active

1 light pull per day otherwise or you got everyone you wanted off of the banner

[keen sable]

Yes

[crisp wraith]

If you plan to use those ships if you'll want to have them farm exp the usual way to get affinity as well.

[deep wing]

I am always scarce of gold

[vale kite]

so u get back cubes for building.. u dont wanna miss out on that

[tropic tusk]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips give this a read

[deep wing]

I did read on that is just that there is too much stuff hahaha I read till about gears

Then I just saw so much stats I just didn't feel like reading after that

[tropic tusk]

cause u have a daily mission that says do a pull , so light pull cost u 1 cube and event cost u 2 cubes, daily u will earn 4 cube

[deep wing]

Ah I see

Is ok I alr did that then👍 I built 7 today cause I'm broke

[tropic tusk]

so is heavy n special they both cost 2 cube

[vale kite]

i wanted to make an informed decision on my anniversary invite thing and been forgetting about all this time

how do i judge which one to pick? are any of them much better than the others?

[deep wing]

Gonna grind azure lane rn I'll ask if I need help again thanks guys

[crisp wraith]

Check the pin

[vale kite]

ty

[soft raft]

is the anniv one even pinned anymore?

[rigid onyx]

Are there any cases of using afct & black pencil

[vale kite]

didn't find it

[crisp wraith]

Oh it’s the Anniversary one, my bad

[soft raft]

what's on the anniv invite again?
It's been quite a while since August lol

[crisp wraith]

Uh remind me the options yeah

[vale kite]

lemme type them out

[crisp wraith]

Ideally you'd avoid the permanently available ship

[soft raft]

maybe
tho AFCT + White is much more common, namely due to the White shell's additional HIT stat

[spring bolt]

here

[soft raft]

dawg they are all peramently avaliable

[soft raft]

that's no what he was looking for
he was looking for the EN Anniv one

[crisp wraith]

Sorry I meant available in non-gacha

[wind hazel]

what was it called, spring?

[crisp wraith]

inb4 that's also all of them

[vale kite]

Bremerton, Sirius, Shoukaku, Bismarck, Jeanne d'Arc, Pola..

[crisp wraith]

Aren't these all non gacha I was joking god damn

[soft raft]

Average, Good for CV Boss fleets, Average, meh, useful for W14-15 bossing if needed, and Meh respectively

nah pretty sure Bremerton and Pola are in the gacha pool

[vale kite]

how do i check if they are?

[soft raft]

Wiki

[crisp wraith]

Brem is available in war archive

Yeah it's just Pola as the ~~ non ~~ gacha

[soft raft]

[crisp wraith]

I need more sleep fr I meant to type the only gacha

that's 2 fuck ups in the span of like 10 minutes

I guess Pola it is then, but also like in terms of the ship themselves I'd rather have the other.

But you'll have em sooner or later.

I’ve done all PR IV. Finished Plymouth (farming BPs now). What’s next? I kind of want to go right to Napoli, but I have literally nothing leveled to do the CDC for SE or NParliament.

[kind slate]

is the 113mm dd gun worth making?

[wind hazel]

worth but probably not a priority especially if you're new to midgame player

[kind slate]

what counts as new -> midgame?

[spring bolt]

shimanto fs5 (but pr6 is bad) for ch 15 or nakh (but you will need NP ships to activate her skill) for strong cv
napoli now doesn't have a place in top fleets (as something only she can do and no replacement for her/other ships are downgrades to her)
or just pr7 for la9

[elfin hollow]

So I did a Hail Mary pull with all I got before January 1 (advanced happy new year y'all)

I got Theseus. Is she still good?

[wind hazel]

if you still need electronics to make planes or mainguns etc

[kind slate]

right. ill make it after getting 3rd wyvern then. do i need the UR 406 bb gun?

[spring bolt]

she is average since she was in the game iirc...

[wind hazel]

having 1 or 2 is nice

[soft raft]

Still roughly as average as she was when she came out

[wind hazel]

and takes priority over 113 imo

113 is really one of the very last gear you want to craft from lab

[kind slate]

kk thnx

[wind hazel]

use this as reference #gameplay-help message

[kind slate]

Sorry when it says “in depot” does it mean not used, as in spare? Or does it just mean in possession

[wind hazel]

in possession

[kind slate]

Thank

[kind slate]

Which recipe should I use to craft mk7

[wind hazel]

i think most use the one from mk6

i could be wrong actually

yea i could be highly wrong

[kind slate]

It’s just I don’t know which material is better to conserve lol

[wind hazel]

craft from the gold mk d

i ctrl+F this chat, should be accurate

[dusky narwhal]

what are the best fighters for Rumey that aren't event only?

[wind hazel]

depends on what you wanna do with her

flap if you want interception, bf109g/la9 for bossing

[soft raft]

There hasn't been a relevant event only fighter plane in years besides Hellcat HVAR

[kind slate]

Is this gear fine for z52? Should I make the aa that increases fp?

[wind hazel]

this is good enough

[soft raft]

That's fine for now until you can craft the British 113
Also no don't change her AA gun out for that

[dusky narwhal]

That was the main one I was thinking of

[kind slate]

K also what’s recommended augment?

[soft raft]

The double swords

[soft raft]

Like mori said earlier, depends on the content

Tigercat or Flapjack for campaign
Gold Hellcat if you can't make Tigercats or Flapjacks
BF-109G for Anti-med
LA-9 is BF-109G but more Pog
Hellcat HVAR for anti-light

Also do note that BF-109G, Hellcat HvAR, and LA-9 can't passive intercept

[vale kite]

I'm trying to figure out where Ganj-i-Sawai should be positioned in a fleet.. any help?

[soft raft]

The bench

[dusky narwhal]

okay thank you! and I think I can make Tigercats and Flapjacks just only have one of each cuz Im lazy but I will move onto PR7 soon ish I hope but I doubt it because I am no where near done with PR6

[vale kite]

but she pretty

[barren tapir]

flag of waifu fleet i guess

[vale kite]

i see

[soft raft]

She's kinda whatever in the grand scheme of things

And her fleet tech benefits only like three other ships

[barren tapir]

shes fine to use outside plane heavy content if you enjoy her but dont expect her to perform anywhere more than middling at best. also hope you have her gun...

[vale kite]

so if im going for clearing campaign and efficiency i should not priortize her

[atomic abyss]

Yes you shouldn't

[spring bolt]

just bench her

[vale kite]

ok ok

is this okay?

[atomic abyss]

No because your backliners are not MLB
Drop fritz for a lower rarity carrier like enterprise or Saratoga

[vale kite]

positions are a nightmare for me

[atomic abyss]

Focus your UR bulins on New Jersey instead, since you already partly invested in her

[kind slate]

what setup do i need for taihou meta? standard heavy CV fleet?

[vale kite]

you know what, I'll max her now lol

[glossy granite]

With portland i got all the prints i need except the blue ones, brutal......

[atomic abyss]

Yes

[spring bolt]

you will want slow/freeze btw

[storm heron]

does sirius prefer a peashooter dd gun or a high dps dd gun

[glossy granite]

Why does this always happen to me 😭 , I have like 70 purples, and enough golden ones but the blue ones always at 3 or 5

[barren tapir]

do you convert blues to purples

[atomic abyss]

Peashooter
Not 76 tho

[barren tapir]

cos this realistically never happens unless you retrofit a shit ton of commons + are new, or convert your prints

[atomic abyss]

Gold 100/114

Her gun damage is negligible

[storm heron]

Jimmy also said so, how though, isn't it 41% fp and something2? Or her barrage is just good

[atomic abyss]

No everything is shit

[glossy granite]

Nope, been like this since i came back few days ago. Before that i havent really farmed since 2021

[storm heron]

dang

[glossy granite]

Even back then i dont remember doing this

[barren tapir]

just a lack of hard mode clears then ig

[spring bolt]

you are looking at 50k damage and 52k damage difference, for sirius so i choose... not bother

[glossy granite]

I never cleared hard mode until few days ago 😅

[barren tapir]

well get onto it, and AL is marathon not sprint so have patience

[storm heron]

ah so it's the AoA

[glossy granite]

Yea i am and ik, few hours ago i finally got Unicorn retrofit

[sweet delta]

sirius is basically zero AoA

[kind slate]

is there any reason to save the shop points in opsi? i wanna get the UR skill books..

[storm heron]

where did she get 50k damage in the first place there

[spring bolt]

no i mean the rng will affect her damage more than main gun

[keen sable]

there's some massive copium being spread about sirius

[keen sable]

you know 50k isn't hard. 500dps over 80s is already 40k

[atomic abyss]

Her aoa is ok, her guns are ok

[sweet delta]

twin 138.6 is Sirius's best main gun

[keen sable]

not particularly

[atomic abyss]

No one in their right mind is giving her that tho

[kind slate]

k thnx

[storm heron]

is it like "gun damage negligible enough just give her whatever" case then?

[barren tapir]

idk about her aoa being ok, its barely there imo, but her gun is aight. decent selfbuffs and can use dd gun and decent efficiency/stat. nothing special but nothing awful

[atomic abyss]

There are so many other ships that would want it over her

[keen sable]

if you're using sirius you mean business so mean it?

[barren tapir]

even if sirius was my waifu i wouldnt give her moggun lol

way too little impact

[spring bolt]

it's more like she does very similar gun damage using the common ones compared to bis (which is twin 138) so don't need to worry about this

[storm heron]

how is her barrage compared to her sister scylla?

[barren tapir]

just give her a decent dps dd gun and call it a day

[atomic abyss]

Scylla is way better

[sweet delta]

.

[barren tapir]

effectively nonexistent

[atomic abyss]

Hers is comparable to Dido

And no it's not effectively non existent

[vale spindle]

Scylla and dido have poggers aoa

[barren tapir]

hers is comparable to dido without augment, dido with augment's aoa smokes sirius as well

[atomic abyss]

Dido with augment has poggers AoA

The default Dido class aoa is just decent

[vale spindle]

I thought dido even without augment had a better aoa

[atomic abyss]

No lmao

[vale spindle]

[barren tapir]

its not nothing, the base dmg is decent but from what ive seen, on auto the pattern is pretty shit and often misses. that's just been my experience though

[atomic abyss]

Dido was only considered better than Sirius back then pre opsi cos she had better skills

[barren tapir]

i'd consider dido without aug slightly better?

[atomic abyss]

Only Scylla has the actual pog

[barren tapir]

either way augged dido smokes both

and scylla smokes augged dido (but not nearly as much as she smokes dido/sirius)

[atomic abyss]

Also

[spring bolt]

who wants dido when dido muse is better

[atomic abyss]

If you call Sirius pattern shit

Wait till you realise they all have almost the same damn pattern

The difference is the damage multipliers

[vale kite]

what is this website?

[atomic abyss]

Even Scylla's pattern is just a fancier version of Sirius'

[barren tapir]

tbf i dont have dido so for comparison ive been going off numbers and assuming similar pattern didos is slightly better

i just always end up seeing sirius aoa miss whenever i peek the screen maybe im just unlucky?

[storm heron]

riceist:barrage

[barren tapir]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/User:Riceist/BarrageDatamine

[atomic abyss]

You haven't seen bad AoAs then lol

[vale kite]

ty both

[barren tapir]

i mean...ive seen z9s, i know worse aoas exist lol but i dont think sirius's aoa is particularly impactful that's all

[atomic abyss]

Your gifs became PNGs

[sweet delta]

he is trying to show that Sirius's AoA is literally nonexistent

[atomic abyss]

Bili wiki is a pain to copy gifs from

Trust me, I've tried

You need to like use a fucking inspect element or sth

[spring bolt]

alright that doesn't work... tried to steal from cn wiki

[atomic abyss]

Anyways they're all not worth throwing a good gun onto

Unless you somehow have multiple mog guns

[dusky narwhal]

should I buy the event torps? are they any good?

[atomic abyss]

Best in the game

[storm heron]

alright then, I would probably just not worry about sirius and just give her whatever, thx all

[barren tapir]

first thing you buy honestly imo

[atomic abyss]

Just give her whatever ye

[vale kite]

how good is z52?

[barren tapir]

amazing

[atomic abyss]

Extremely

Well, when you are able to MLB her then you use her

[dusky narwhal]

oh bet I had like 16k and just asking before I try to get a second Z52

[atomic abyss]

You don't use URs that are not MLB

[storm heron]

oh yea what about ply gun? nvm I think it would have got mentioned if it was good

[vale kite]

ok now the real question, is this currency time gated?

[forest palm]

more or less

[atomic abyss]

A notable portion is

[sonic canyon]

I think it's one of the best pioneers

[keen sable]

the event doesn't last forever?

[barren tapir]

yes except for some event missions and the exchangeable ones from event point

[atomic abyss]

Pioneer? Tf is this, Arknights?

[barren tapir]

i assume dd translates to pioneer from CN using bad machine translate

[sweet delta]

sirius, dido, dido augment

[vale kite]

what i mean is, if i miss a few days, am i screwed or is it grindable?

[sweet delta]

DD = expulsion
vanguard = pioneer

[stark quiver]

its grindable

[atomic abyss]

Grindable

[forest palm]

didn't even notice Dido got a UE lol

[barren tapir]

dido aug seems clearly improvement over the other two but the other two arent as bad as i remembered, neat

[vale kite]

do i get these to buy the UR vouchers?
what other way is there to grind if any?

[atomic abyss]

Complete the 1x missions

[keen sable]

if you can clear SP, it's basically free. dupe is...

[storm heron]

thx, damn dido deals so much barrage compared to sirius

[barren tapir]

do the manjuu curling minigame, clear sp, use every ship except z52 herself in b3/d3 boss node without them sinking

yeah anyone saying aug dido barrage comparable to sirius is its too bad dido herself is a meh ship

[warm cliff]

Ohhhh nice. Where do you find these gifs?

[stark quiver]

i thought u coded them sushi

[storm heron]

wouldn't be surprised if they were at this point

[tranquil ferry]

im new as well
how do i even go about playing this game

[sweet delta]

i found them on my computer

[tranquil ferry]

i have a favorite ship but i hear shes not that good

[stark quiver]

yea this mf used python to code it

[barren tapir]

aside from endgame content, waifu > meta dont let us metahogs get you down

[keen sable]

you can ask how to make the best of it

[tranquil ferry]

what works on taiho
