[thorn tartan]

it looks like you were already directed to the newbie guide

[elfin hollow]

umm I need at least 1 team for SP4

[thorn tartan]

put in your best/highest level ships and best gear. IF it doesn't work, level up your ships in SP3 or the campaign

it doesn't look like you are missing out on anything if you can't finish this event.

[viscid horizon]

What's SP mean?

[thorn tartan]

you mean the 4 stages of this event?

[elfin hollow]

what lvl should my fleet be for 2 teams to complete SP4?

[thorn tartan]

I think SP means "special"

[dreamy blade]

at least lvl 80ish so you're not level penalized, higher makes it easier to brute force

for brest's faction reqs do the ships have to specifically be iris libre? so vichya ships don't count?

[ivory pawn]

Is your fleet 1 failing to clear, or are ships sinking?

[thorn tartan]

any reason why autoselect always picks FDG over Vanguard?

[elfin hollow]

fleet 1 failing

[ivory pawn]

Yep, specifically IL. Vichiya won't count.

[stark quiver]

whoever has most fleet power

[elfin hollow]

Fleet 1

[thorn tartan]

spend a day or two leveling your ships higher. maybe get some better gear in the gearlab

make sure you tank is in tank position. have you read the newbie guides?

[elfin hollow]

what is the tank position

[thorn tartan]

first spot in the vanguard should bee portland

[ivory pawn]

First spot being the leftmost spot.

[dreamy blade]

Left - middle - right
Tank - squishy - offtank

[sweet delta]

wha brest doesnt have iris ship requirements, it's gear

[dreamy blade]

i mean to unlock her

[elfin hollow]

who to put in 2nd and 3rd?

[ivory pawn]

At least you can use Vichiya ships to get the exp, even if they don't count towards the tech requirement.

[thorn tartan]

can i auto the EX stage somehow or do i need to joystick it? haven't tried ityet

[dreamy blade]

For you it would be laffey middle, Helena right

[storm heron]

yeah empty fleet req and -1 gear req. Oh I thought you just realized this now, turns out you were answering to 12 messages above

[elfin hollow]

what about enter qe perseus

[storm heron]

didn't we tell you to up enty to a certain level or something?

or have you not?
I lost in the sauce

[dreamy blade]

Backline is different, middle is flagship which would be your bb (queen eliz) left and right don't matter

[elfin hollow]

my enty is lvl 79

[storm heron]

can you go to your thrread and show what gear they aare using?

[thorn tartan]

oh darn, definite need joystick on EX

[storm heron]

enemy is about level 79-80, was wondering why you're failing

[elfin hollow]

lvled her to 82

[stark quiver]

this ex is easily autoable

[thorn tartan]

which ships

[storm heron]

so what gears are you using?

[stark quiver]

alsace,shinano,amagicv,laffey2,jda,eldridge

if u dont mind resetting, then can use eld,kaza,helena for one strike
~~ i do cuz skill issue~~

[thorn tartan]

I don't need AA for EX do I? Load up dive and torp?

[stark quiver]

dont need AA

[thorn tartan]

what's the armor

[stark quiver]

just run your standard heavy bossing setup with 460 on aksace

[thorn tartan]

okay

[storm heron]

do you +13 460?

ooc

[stark quiver]

thats sounds dum

[thorn tartan]

i'm looking at Alsace. Looks like I have the 457 +13. Let me see about it

[storm heron]

I mean who knows who knows

[thorn tartan]

the triple 460 works better on her?

[stark quiver]

yes
it does more damage

anyways, ive stopped tryharding ex, for i am a casual now

[storm heron]

yeah 460 has more alpha damage

[thorn tartan]

wouldn't have expected that

[storm heron]

cause alsace have preload

[thorn tartan]

yeah, i get it. but if the battle goes more than 30 sec......

maybe it doesn't

[thorn tartan]

cool, thank you. Is Shinano better than Haku?

[stark quiver]

she buffs amagi more
and shes a better pair with amagi

[thorn tartan]

gotcha

[robust jasper]

Got all the boats this event

[storm heron]

same but 2 years ago

[kind needle]

Is it normal to use Gold AA Radar for Shimanto?

[hollow gust]

no

[stark quiver]

heck no

[kind needle]

So, is it the usual Washing Machine and ASW?

Or smth like Washing Machine and Toolkit?

[wind hazel]

for what, w15?

[stark quiver]

washer
bulge
for w15

[kind needle]

Yea, gonna prepare her, still at W14 tho

[thorn tartan]

how does Shinano buff Amagi more than Haku? They are both Sakura....

[stark quiver]

read skill
also amagi buffs shinano too

[wind hazel]

rudder and bulge like what alpha said

[stark quiver]

and shinano more torp based than haku

[elfin hollow]

QE/Perseus/Enterprise/Helena Retro/Portland Retro/Laffey Help me gear

[thorn tartan]

Oh I see, Shinano buffs all Sakura CV if you have at least 3 Sakura in fleet....

[wind hazel]

do you have more techbox?

[elfin hollow]

no

[stark quiver]

yeh and amagi is better than haku, while also buffing shinanos torps, and ijn torps
which is good cuz
you run kazagumo and unzen in a heavy comp usually

[thorn tartan]

yeah. I was thinking that Amagi Haku was as good as Amagi Shinano. Shinano requires 3 sakura in fleet for her sakura CV buff. Your fleet didn't have 3 ijn and didn't have unzen or kaz. Deep dive. Something I don't usually try to do

[stark quiver]

you could run kaza in that fleet, but i chose not to, since she wouldnt make a difference

[elfin hollow]

so what gear

[wind hazel]

ye chill im making it

ok ask someone else to fill the gap 🏃🏼‍➡️ im not good with these

[stark quiver]

just put all the leftovers

[atomic abyss]

Idk how to feel abt avenger tbh

It's strong but like snail

[stark quiver]

laffey2 is a good tank for EX, cuz she doesnt die to burst damage that easily (look into her blue skill)
jda can be replaced by kaza, but she made no difference in two shotting, so i chose jda for more survivabality
eld does eld things

[atomic abyss]

Could just tenzan the enty and avenger the Percy
Not like Percy is loading a third strike in time

[elfin hollow]

like?

[stark quiver]

w/e u have left

[carmine heath]

Is it worth putting that one AA solar panel thing on sandy

[weak shell]

why is SP3 not recommended to farm when it's more efficient than SP4 should you go 1:1 0LB full clear on SP3 around 5-6 oil per fight for 40/46 per 120 points? Even if you 1:1 0LB SP4, you have to spend 30 on boss alone no?

[sweet delta]

when has sam ever recommended tryhard strats

[tight yarrow]

what is the command for w15 again?

[stark quiver]

/w15

[odd root]

Bridal Z23

This is a guide for world 15
https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/chapter-15

[tight yarrow]

tks

[storm heron]

not everyone want to do some complicted strats that require them to have some 1:1 0LB and some UR crossfleets and stuff

[wind hazel]

speaking of sp3 what's the strat, i can't clear on lethal 😭

[sweet delta]

just go 5 oil on lethal

[wind hazel]

1:2?

[carmine heath]

1:1 0lb sounds incredibly painful

[weak shell]

terror/erebus + mahans

[wind hazel]

terror in today's economy?

[weak shell]

it's not painful tho, you still full auto it even on lethal, I didn't even notice anything when I ran mine

[stark quiver]

my 1:2 died for some reason

[weak shell]

easier to differentiate which fleet goes where

[stark quiver]

on sp3 lethal auto

[weak shell]

crossfleets?

mine just the usual sashi soy als

[wind hazel]

i ran musashi alsace soyuz kron shima guam

[storm heron]

weirdly my original fleet worked for lethal, but not safe, until I changed to im new's fleet

[weak shell]

I run unzen instead of guam but shouldn't be too diff

[wind hazel]

my ranger 20% hp just after 2 fights

[weak shell]

I legit didn't pay attention even when I notice my SP4 is safe but SP3 is lethal

yea that's why I run BMs instead, CVs good but variance a bit high

[storm heron]

sounds pretty normal for this one yeah

[sweet delta]

my ranger was fine after 3 triangle air

[wind hazel]

maybe my ranger china made

[stark quiver]

is dailies and sp enough to get me 7225 event pt starting from tmo

bro got that temu ranger

[wind hazel]

yeah you get 19k+

[stark quiver]

not coutning first clear rewards

[storm heron]

I wanna make this joke until I realize azur lane is too

[weak shell]

wait how much is daily clears + missions + SP again?

[slow fox]

bullymod mentioned

[weak shell]

ugh, fine, guess I go open my sheet to cal

[viscid horizon]

I accidentally buying skin 😭😭😭

[storm heron]

"there are no accidents"

[weak shell]

just happy coincidence

[viscid horizon]

Is not my favorite ship😭

[viscid swift]

ok...

[keen sable]

#off-topic

[fickle hollow]

if i buy this can i face corrosion 6 boss node?

[weak shell]

c6 abyssal, yes

[fickle hollow]

should i get this?

[weak shell]

pinned but it's just a sidegrade

[fickle hollow]

should i save 135 gold plates to +13 my skyraider or should i +13 my 2nd Ju-87?

[keen sable]

that's a strange loadout...

[weak shell]

unless there's a META raid comp that you want to copy that utilize specifically +13 Skyraider, you are better off saving the plates

[elfin hollow]

does raid give you cubes

[fickle hollow]

i normally use aprocket-skyraider-ju87 on shinano just for asking i swapped it with another ju87

[frank pulsar]

+13 the skyraider imho
its too good to give up on light/med bosses

[viscid horizon]

What is the average gems we get in one month?

[weak shell]

funny I never used it before in my life in that specific circumstance

[storm heron]

imo don't +13 skyraider yet until you can use it to one shot META or in CM

[frank pulsar]

0
you get like ~4k gems from perma sources and thats it outside of lny
occasionally commissions give gem but thats rare and a only very little amount

[weak shell]

light, just Zwei hyperbuff it

[sweet delta]

what about a +13 skyraider that autos CM in sub 2 minutes

[frank pulsar]

skyraider good enough to let my albion compete with yorkii without one on light so

[stark quiver]

hi stig
was the fleet zwei,yk2,kear

[fickle hollow]

i am now more confused should i or should i not?

[stark quiver]

kear,yk2,fritz?

[storm heron]

I don't even know if they are using the skyraider

[keen sable]

sub2 sounds like anything will work making skyraider useless

[frank pulsar]

theres plenty of light/med bosses theyll definitely get use out of it

[weak shell]

I didn't even rmb anything from CM that isn't just me slam UR BB me shoot boss and get a sub 6

other than the enty one ig

[fickle hollow]

[weak shell]

save

[sweet delta]

you should, it's +12 already and it'll be used a lot

[storm heron]

sunk cost fal

[weak shell]

can always just get more, your choice, I personally haven't used my +13 Skyraiders in forever

shoulda just +13 more Ply guns or something with my selectors

[wind hazel]

[fickle hollow]

ok i will +13 the syraider then

[keen sable]

correct answer is yes you should +13 dps gear

[stark quiver]

so what was the fleet

[fickle hollow]

btw is this setup fine Against Medium armor boss

[wind hazel]

maybe

[frank pulsar]

if you dont have an la9 yes

[fickle hollow]

ok

[storm heron]

pretty sure if you're using amagi then saiun is better than bfg?

[keen sable]

zkk is medium

[frank pulsar]

i hope you have a slow/stop though

[stark quiver]

suchi gatekeeping

[frank pulsar]

just watch his yt vid

[weak shell]

or La-9 or Tenrai instead depending on timing but overall yes

[fickle hollow]

nope i am building ark royal rn

[stark quiver]

what yt vid
that was 2:05 and had zwei

ima just wait for next vid

[rustic harness]

Who is the best to pick in the UR exchange?

[stark quiver]

shinanno

[rustic harness]

Ok thanks

[blissful hamlet]

Unless you can guarantee that the boss won't move, I'd use parallel torps on 3rd slot

[weak shell]

AvP is coinable rite?

[wind hazel]

[stark quiver]

she should be

[weak shell]

question: how much currency is in the "bonus" daily on light reruns that requires you to clear one event stage?

it's not on the wiki rn afaik so I have to ask

[keen sable]

100 300

[weak shell]

isn't that the hard mode mission?

for major event I think it's like 300 but I'm not sure on small SP events like this

hard mode mission currency drop from 150 from major event to 100 on minor event like this

[left cedar]

Is blutcher good and should i get her?

[stark quiver]

shes free to yes

just grind event, and prob drop her from sp4

[keen sable]

mm wait yes it is 300

[weak shell]

ok, ty

[carmine heath]

Is sp1 worth doing at all with bonus

[weak shell]

on 5-6 oil maybe

[hoary relic]

Is sovetskaya a good bb to invest?

[weak shell]

bello or ross? Both are gold and not the high end ones imo

surely salvaged by UE, trust, copium

[jagged harness]

Where do you all farm when you want your ships to Lvl 100+?

[keen sable]

event

[weak shell]

12-4 still

[jagged harness]

Which one?

[keen sable]

sp4

[jagged harness]

Opinions for 12-1?

[weak shell]

any stage that they can live and have oil cap usually, D1-D3, SP4/5

[weak shell]

might as well go 11-1 if you just want exp then

[hoary relic]

I have no ur or sr bb else sovet belo rn so should i invest in her

[weak shell]

Hood is free no?

from starter mission selector

[hoary relic]

Got her already, but she is BC

[hoary relic]

Eh havent finished that yet cuz haven't reached lv 60 yet

[weak shell]

I mean sure, why not, options are there in Research PR ships but that will take a while for you regardless

[hoary relic]

Well cuz some hard stages need BB so idk should i spend on her

[cobalt gate]

i wonder at what cost is it not worth it to do min oil for s4? currently at 13 oil

[weak shell]

you can go 5-6 oil on 0LB mob for SP4 even

[keen sable]

3 not worth

[weak shell]

but it can't do boss so yk, might as well do SP3 for more efficiency

[cobalt gate]

does s3 even have clear rewards?

also sadly didn't raise a 0lb fleet

[weak shell]

for the BB lock? Even something lower rarity like Penny, Fusou/Yama or Hyuuga or Nelson/Rodney are all fine there, you don't have to force yourself to raise a gold ship

[weak shell]

no but the clear rewards don't improve the efficiency of the stage over well 12-4 for example, exp or gold wise

it's just a cost efficiency thing, you doing SP3 for 40 oil to get out of here asap so you can go back to 12-4, 14-4, 14-1 or w.e (like dump 10k on OpSi like a degenerate a.k.a me)

[cobalt gate]

ahh

[keen sable]

nyah rush isn't a terrible idea

[storm heron]

gosh 15% is so hard

[weak shell]

but if you are well not end game, doing oil cap SP4 for exp and for whatever ships you are having trailing behind is fine, the efficiency isn't that bad, bonus if you don't have blucher and drop her there

[cobalt gate]

mostly just for farming affinity, so wondering if i should just go to cap

[hoary relic]

Eh how should i spend oils for the event? Im still a noob cant beat ex yet

[keen sable]

do all the dailies then farm sp4 if you want more points.

[hoary relic]

Which is more efficiency, manually or automatically ?

[weak shell]

EX is the touhou stage, you should only care about the ESP stage at most

clearing EX is mainly for the 500 chips and just slam UR BB Helena Eldridge and pray RNG a bit

[lofty blaze]

which UR is to be added to the permanent pool next?

[weak shell]

Kronk iirc?

it was Ulric Winter 2021 then Kronk Feb 2022 no?

[wind hazel]

kron is already in

[lofty blaze]

kronk here na

[wind hazel]

next should be......... vanguard?

[weak shell]

then Vangie

[lofty blaze]

oh okayy, thank you!

[weak shell]

wait we are 1 away from Sashi already, time really flies

[nocturne glade]

I just finished the catchups i needed for PR4, which catchup should I do next? Looking at brest and plymouth atm

[wind hazel]

ply good

[nocturne glade]

great, ty!

[nimble knoll]

Should I +10?

[stark quiver]

Champy gun is a good investment yes

[rapid grail]

pr6 botes coinable? or has it not happened yet

[glossy granite]

How is fritz rumey best used btw

[elfin hollow]

hol up almost all missions on my commissions tab require lvl. 100

have I grinded the game too fast? I followed the guides

[hoary relic]

well mostly lv 50 commission req lv70-100 ships

[elfin hollow]

oh Understandable. I did hit the lvl. 70 requirement before this XD

would comms reset every day or not? I forgot about that part

[hoary relic]

it does

[vale spindle]

i don't think so

we are on pr7 now, and coinable starts 2 gens back iirc, so currently we are on pr5 and dr4 iirc

[hoary relic]

well retro portland first if u r a newbie

🤡

🤔 well retro helena for her debuff if u want i guess

[nocturne glade]

is the event gun just eugen gun with more damage? everything else looked the same

[stark quiver]

Helena retrofit is op as a debuffer

[rapid grail]

well helena retrofit just allows you to adjust the timing w/ sg radar to 16s -> 36s - >56s -> ... instead of the usual 20s -> 40s -> 60s -> ...
overall a bit lower on the prio for retrofitting but still good for bossing contents if you need the damage which newbies would appreciate

[outer cedar]

guys, whos better to invest in: saratoga or enterpise?

[hoary relic]

enty

[keen sable]

daily coms do as long as you logout during server reset. you really want chip coms though. don't rely only on 1 ship.

[vale spindle]

Helena retrofit is good and not needed unless you want to start running triple bb with hsfcr for late game content

[outer cedar]

thx

[slow fox]

samhat mentioned

[keen sable]

megpt how much more portlandy is helena rf than base

[elfin hollow]

not yet using or investing on F2 but I'm plopping down ships that may be useful.

I plan on adding Blucher here too.

am I on the right track?

[keen sable]

Expensive

[nocturne glade]

bulins moment

[sharp socket]

im gonna go with a not really

[keen sable]

Blucher much cheaper. Work harder for free bulins

[hoary relic]

🤔 as i heard from oldbies u dont really need F2 before w12

[dreamy blade]

gold rarity does not = useful

[elfin hollow]

yeh I'm not going F2 but I'm almost W9.

I'm 8-3 but the event landed in front of me like a flashbang

These mofos are eating up my space tho.

[hoary relic]

u dont LB max ur main fleet?

[keen sable]

And belo and gz will eat them all leaving eugen a useless paperweight

[elfin hollow]

all MLB-ed XD

[sharp socket]

also eugen will get replaced pretty quickly once you get anchorage

[elfin hollow]

a h

I'm aiming for ancho too so ditch Eugen for Bluch?

[sharp socket]

you can also dont run a tank for boss

[zenith heron]

bcs as a tank, Eugen has decent bulk, but the rest of her is sad as hell

[sharp socket]

for backline you can have enty and sara when you get indep for mob

or whoever UR comes along

[elfin hollow]

Yet to have saratog but will comply

so my entire F2 as of now is expensive and inefficient?

[sharp socket]

have you sent your dock in a thread before

[elfin hollow]

no but I will do ^^;

[keen sable]

I don't have an issue with teching agir and nyah

[sharp socket]

i can give a general recommendation but it may not be effective for you specifically

[zenith heron]

you can build a 2nd Fleet for some ships that you need to build up next, (not want)

~~it can be a basis also for hard mode due to ship choice limitations but this is not recommended ~~

[loud cedar]

Is the F7F Tiger cat worth crafting or should I save the mats for a 3rd flapjack?

[zenith heron]

would pick the Flapjack due to its slightly slow flight speed which makes it slightly ok to intercept other fighters better than the Tiger Cat and the Sea Hornet, also the Flapjack has better AA than the other 2

the good thing at least for the Tiger Cat is that it has a slightly faster cooldown

but both of their difference are small, do as you wish but I would prefer that Flapjack

[nimble knoll]

If you retire a ship, and you don't have any other copies of it, does the Tech from the ship not apply or does it still apply?

[dreamy blade]

once you acquire tech you have it permanently

[carmine heath]

Which cv should i get?

[hoary relic]

enty for newbies

[zenith heron]

the only hard part is that you need to take note of your ships
I am unsure if multiple copies of ships both mlb and 120 can give tech, but that is my assumption considering I haven't done that yet

[molten zinc]

Ryuhou if you don't have another healer, Shoukaku if you need an IJN early for Shinano

[molten zinc]

he already have Enty since the medal doesn't show "new"

[hoary relic]

oh ye my bad, i was blinded

[wind hazel]

maybe their enty isn't mlb

[zenith heron]

also I assume what I said at my 2nd sentence is false right?

[carmine heath]

enty is indeed ballin

[wind hazel]

tech only register once

[molten zinc]

tech only granted once so even if you have a dupe it won't count

if it's granted multiple time I'd just repeatedly grind Soryuu for infinite CV RLD

[zenith heron]

then I wonder the reason for multiple same copy mlb ones

I guess its for flex and commitment then

[nimble knoll]

Is it worth to 3* the event or nah?

[storm heron]

hey gph!
guess who!

• spent 4 hours trying to beat Juwumy
• trying to find damage breakpoints
• with a helena skill level 9

[storm heron]

yes it is worth, there are buling and oil

[dusk maple]

beat what?

[storm heron]

6994 or smth

[dusk maple]

Oh EX

[zenith heron]

its alr, to 3 star if you want, bcs its just a point farm for the event shop like the cogs, the gun, blucher if you want, DR prints if you don't have/plan to use it for small income protocore, and ofc the Coins and Oil (Tickets are higher prio if you don't have said ships despite the event's ships being mid)
~~
Purple plates if you lack, but its on the lower prio~~

[carmine heath]

wait are all of these available in war archive

[zenith heron]

this list are from the Medal Shop

[dreamy blade]

[storm heron]

I got 6935, I think tomorrow with level 10 radar scan I can replace shinano's beacon and aviation oil tank to a +0
bro I just realized I used a sg radar to a level 1 helena

also can jintM lb2 do anything?

[dusk maple]

No

[storm heron]

[hoary relic]

[nimble knoll]

Is it worth to get copies of blucher, Or nah?

[dusk maple]

not worth

[carmine heath]

if you have the spare points for whatever reason

[nimble knoll]

Is her Gun gud tho?

[carmine heath]

ive heard "3rd best CA gun" but thats from a friend

[zenith heron]

kinda but its subjective, @carmine heath

[fervent hazel]

any of the event ships worth a mlb?

[elfin hollow]

chat I realized I have both Esseggs and Shangri-La

do they make good Damage CV's? Zeppy replacement

[wind hazel]

shangrila is better

but maybe you don't need to invest in her yet

can get someone cheaper like saratoga

[light trail]

what's EX's gimmick?

my vanguard just melts in front of her

[dusk maple]

boss has 9999 HIT stat, so evasion doesn't work. use eldridge retrofit, laffey2

[light trail]

no laff2, yes eldridge

tyty

[dusk maple]

heavy armour boss, CVs are better. ijn rainbow ones especially, torpedoes also work. you'll have to dodge manually a bit.

[light trail]

gotcha. i'd need a freeze right? i have all of the IJN UR CVs so of the 3, which 2 are best for this? shinano amagi?

vanguard of eldridge and who else? kazagumo/helena/sirius/ariake/hamm2 + another tank like agir?

[dusk maple]

save your airstrikes for the 2nd round of reload(40s). it moves too much for the first airstrikes (20s into battle) to hit. eldridge, helena, tank like anchorage/napoli. nagato/shinano/amagi2 in back.

[light trail]

i dont have a usable nagato, she's probably at like level 1 or something

[dusk maple]

musashi? anything good for shinano's 3 ijn preference works

[light trail]

yes musashi

[zenith heron]

what is the suggested adaptability to have when facing harder contents like either Harbiter or Abyssal Bosses? All adaptabilities in 200 ? or 250?

[wind hazel]

203/203/156

[zenith heron]

so this is alr? overdid the tactical one but next time I guess

[wind hazel]

sure

[light trail]

yeah imma just take the L on this EX

[wind hazel]

just reset a few times. surely it isn't that bad

[zenith heron]

well some peeps shit on while others at least pull up so there's that

[light trail]

i just dont feel its worth my time is all, plus i have pleeeenty of cognitive chips so it's w/e to me, but thank u for the advice

[zenith heron]

tbf the cog chips are fine, but its mostly how far you've gone as a player, and how strong your comp is, especially the Backline (Main)

[light trail]

it's all the same to me for azur lane. i tryhard (to an extent) bc it's in my nature, but i really play the game for the sexy ladies so im not suffering over this

[wind hazel]

BB auto can win too

[light trail]

plus im more than satisfied being able to 2-shot arbiters on hard

[polar lion]

BB auto sushi, Vanny, Bizwei?

[wind hazel]

yeah that works

[elfin hollow]

What should I use specialized gear upgrade part on

[crimson glacier]

i think both of those are bad choices

[elfin hollow]

Rip I’ll save it then

[zenith heron]

you can try this /plus13,

but use it at #bot-spam

[eternal basalt]

MK7 is a bad choice???

[zenith heron]

just not prioritized I guess?

[crimson glacier]

insanely expensive while being niche

[worldly pewter]

so that means it is better than either of hindy unzen or drake gun

[worldly pewter]

how many main guns do u have +13 ?

[elfin hollow]

Only 1

[worldly pewter]

which one ?

[elfin hollow]

Uhhh I forgot Musashi gun I think

[worldly pewter]

the rainbow one ?

[dreamy blade]

[worldly pewter]

start with the SR AP guns then
2 champy and a daisen then u can see if u want to do mk7 or not

[elfin hollow]

Is it that bad 😭

[worldly pewter]

its only downside is the high rld which make it very niche for rare scenarios

[dreamy blade]

very low priority for how niche and expensive it is

[worldly pewter]

don't regret ur choices and always look forward

[gusty niche]

Is the event gun worth buying?

[eternal basalt]

I mean, for 2000... are you gonna skip it?

[gusty niche]

fair enough

[wet badge]

After getting the gun do i skip the event

[worldly pewter]

try to get a drop
if u get the chips and maybe prints and have 8k leftover without a drop get the ship too

[viscid horizon]

Did we can change our Gmail account?

[wet badge]

whats the drop

[worldly pewter]

blücher

[noble osprey]

Guys do i need a meowficer guide? I never optimizied them just leveled them and left em alone for the most part

[worldly pewter]

u kinda need to read the guide to know
which cats to prioritize
which cats that have the initial talents good compared to what u have or the best so u can reroll later
which talents to pick when u level them up

[eternal basalt]

Or skip em, just train 2 good ones for loot in OPS

[elfin hollow]

Until when would u farm the event ? I have all the ships already and bought the canon.

[worldly pewter]

i think most games allow linking and disbanding the link
just need to link the account to yostar just incase

[icy cave]

until i have bought everything i need from the shop and from milestone rewards

[pliant steppe]

Where can I get skin for Navi/Oceana? Err I forgot her name... The ai from project identity 2

[late flame]

navi swimsuit is gem purchase only (shop)

What's better, LB Sandy Or Getting Her First Retrofit?

[atomic abyss]

lb

[nimble knoll]

Is there something in these three that's worth +10? Cuz I have too many torp parts

[shell willow]

you shouldnt upgrade what u dont need just because you have upgrade parts, they pile up after a while

[forest palm]

you can't even properly retrofit Sandy without MLB

the Quint Magnet is also the only bad launcher there

[unkempt mortar]

does someone have a link to the lantern trivia answers pin

[forest palm]

its in the pins

[unkempt mortar]

i know its in the pins

its just a long way of scrolling to find it

[fallow sedge]

How good is twin 203 event gun

[atomic abyss]

very very good

pretty much only loses to the rainbows really

[fallow sedge]

I have 2.1k should I get it rn?

[fallow sedge]

Before that is improved better than the other 203

[atomic abyss]

just so you know, all but 4 CA guns are 203...

the improved is the 2nd best AP CA gun

[fallow sedge]

Uhhh the improved 203 event gun and its other self

[atomic abyss]

refer to the img

there's like 20 other 203 CA guns

[keen sable]

2nd best gold...best ap

And the best gold is sort of unobtanium these days gear lab or protocore only and rainbow exists

[elfin hollow]

Is 2-1 comms grind nerfed i randomly saw that on kimocheese thumbnail

[atomic abyss]

for years now, yes

[elfin hollow]

bro…I been doing it for months

[eternal basalt]

How many gems you got?

[elfin hollow]

30

[atomic abyss]

as i like to say

if you have the time to grind 2-1 a couple hundred times

[wind hazel]

lol you're better off doing c1 grind than 2-1

[atomic abyss]

you could go out, mow someone's lawn or clean someone's house
earn like pocket change
and buy the gems using that

[hollow gust]

[elfin hollow]

Is that how AL content creators stack cubes gems

[atomic abyss]

AL content creators are pretty much mostly whales

[hollow gust]

No one buys cubes though , they just play the game

[wind hazel]

people actually buy cubes

[hollow gust]

Rime has like 5k saved up without spending any gems on cubes

[elfin hollow]

With or without 100 %collections

[hollow gust]

He gets every single gatcha ship

You realize unless you stop playing the game , your cubes will slope upwards consistently

[novel solstice]

I have over 5400 cubes, and every ship in game except Houston2. It's not hard if you've been playing since the beginning, they give you significantly more cubes than you need to get everything from the gatcha over time.

[hollow gust]

I spend like 800 cubes every year on research and I'm still 4 digit cube count

[nimble knoll]

What's Better To +10 Seafang Or Corsair?

[novel solstice]

The key is to be patient. You'll get every ship in light build eventually from doing one build a day outside of events. You'll get every ship in heavy/special build eventually from events that use those as the event pools. That leaves plenty to go heavy into events where the RNG hates you.

[rigid onyx]

I wouldn't recommend cube researches until you have a stockpile of 300+, still, but once you catch up to reruns you have a major surplus

[atomic abyss]

oh

[stone sluice]

I had to, to reach 200 pulls and claim Unzen.
Never felt that scammed in my life after spending money for such few cubes

[wind hazel]

yes contrary to gph's popular belief, players actually buy cubes

[eternal basalt]

300? 1k+

[nimble knoll]

-# Literally Me Before I Joined The Discord Server, I Feel Like An Idiotka

[nimble knoll]

Wats better? (In terms of FR And Dmg?)

[eternal basalt]

You need 400 for guaranteed UR... 300 you're hurting yourself.

[eager mulch]

I’ve bought cubes before

[tame jungle]

cubing research at 300 cubes you're playing a dangerous game

[white agate]

is the purple gun bad because of the high spread? all the other values looks decent (25 vs 45 fp still)

[forest palm]

some even buy oil

[eager mulch]

I’ve bought shop refreshes with gems

[atomic abyss]

yep, shd be spread

[coral elk]

Whale

[forest palm]

I see no reason to use that Mk 23 all things considered

[atomic abyss]

it's the same reason we use it's predecessor for budget CL secondaries for BBs

and not as CL main gun

[nimble knoll]

[forest palm]

which Corsair?

[nimble knoll]

purple

[worldly pewter]

i think he meant the purple one

[wispy cosmos]

what predecessor

[atomic abyss]

was this not the upgrade of the triple 152 HE that's in UK boxes?

[forest palm]

purple Corsair is fine it's a mat for one of the better planes in Gear Lab iirc

[nimble knoll]

Also is a purple barracuda worth to upgrade pass +6?

[wispy cosmos]

youre probably thinking of this gun

[atomic abyss]

corsair used for flap

[wind hazel]

ehh i wouldnt, transitional purple +6 most of the time

[white agate]

so if i really wanted an estimation of the damage a gun does on a target i should likely compare it to a spread of around 15% since that is most likely the size of target therefore a spread of 45% loses 2/3 of the damage it should do on a target?

[molten zinc]

think of it like this pos but even worse since this thing spread only 18 degree while that purple gun is 45 degree

[nimble knoll]

Wat does this do?

[soft raft]

/detection

[wind hazel]

/cvdetection

[odd root]

Bridal Z23

Detection Level:
If the gauge hasn't been filled, your carriers gains "hidden buff", which is 10% flat AA resistance reduction to enemies (basically they deal more dmg) and they can't be chosen as a valid target (enemies BB won't attack your CV when hidden).
If the gauge has been filled, there will be an exclamation mark (!) displayed to the side of the gauge, and your carriers lose the "hidden buff". They will regain the buff when the gauge level falls below the red line.
The gauge will be slowly filled if spotted by the enemy (both planes and ships) if they crossed the detection line, when they are burning, and when launching an airstrike.

[viscid horizon]

Um, how to add friend?

[nimble knoll]

Should I give my Best Gear To Enty, Or Keep It On Yt2?

[sharp echo]

help

[eager mulch]

it’s not 100 cause im past that

[nimble knoll]

Should I replace it?

[elfin hollow]

whats the best way to farm gold bulins?

[atomic abyss]

...play the game really

you get 1 from weekly missions, you get some from medal shop, you get some from pvp shop

[soft raft]

Short answer: One does not simply Farm bullins
long answer: https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/common_resource#bulins

[atomic abyss]

to be clear it is time gated

[soft raft]

this is also why you dont go using them on any SR willy nilly without know how good they are

[eternal basalt]

The best way is to PvP really really hard

[coral elk]

Well you kind of do once you get a few good ships done

[nimble knoll]

Does upgrading pass +10 just make the gear do more Dmg in OpSi?

[hollow gust]

200 and it's pinned

[atomic abyss]

no, the dmg is improved

[eternal basalt]

And outside OPS

[hollow gust]

For planes and guns it's 18% damage increase at +13. For auxes it's stat increases

[atomic abyss]

all stats besides rld are improved iirc

[elfin hollow]

are doing war archives worth it?

[hollow gust]

Rld are increased too cause oxytorp stats do increase

[soft raft]

divergent chessboard for tech
and that's really it

[nimble knoll]

Is a (gold,and not Hvar) hellcat worth upgrading pass +10, Or should I just save to upgrade skyraider

[sharp echo]

does 5 luk even good?

oke

[eternal basalt]

Just damage

[soft raft]

not really
and as for Skyraider, depends, esp cuz UR gear takes like triple the plates to +13

[nimble knoll]

Yeah it needs like 100+ to just +11 it

Also is it worth putting my best gear on Enty instead of yt2? (Or is the lvl difference making it not worth, Cuz Enty Is 102 and Yt2 is 114)

[wind hazel]

what gear are you trying to split between them

[nimble knoll]

This is what my Enty and Yt2 gears rn

[wind hazel]

it's fine, keep it that way

maybe give york another barracuda if you have it

[obsidian ivy]

Uvh is supposed to flag right....that skill of hers gonna fuck her when she's out of ammo isn't it

[nimble knoll]

Aight

[wind hazel]

she flags when it's out of ammo, otherwise off

[eternal basalt]

Dont flag UvH

[nimble knoll]

What should the Barracuda switch with? Helldiver?

[wind hazel]

the helldiver yeah

[obsidian ivy]

[hollow gust]

Proceeds to turn into a common ship after 5 battles

[wind hazel]

tbh i think double db is fine too but it's really kinda weird loadout

[nimble knoll]

Don't have enough Parts to +10 it, So ig ima keep the HD For abit

[obsidian ivy]

Gonna be annoying to grind her in 13-4

[eternal basalt]

Is a common ship first 5 battles

[hollow gust]

Flag UVH is a only slightly weaker then fdg lmao

[forest palm]

people use Ulrich?

[hollow gust]

Either way don't use UVH in campaign is the easiest solution

[wind hazel]

option 1: you flag UVH when fleet is out of ammo
option 2: you put UVH on boss fleet so you never run into ooa situation

[obsidian ivy]

Grinding her to 120 for tech

[wind hazel]

ngl having uvh on mob team sucks because you have to see so many bb animation lol

[nimble knoll]

It's wat people suggested before so

[forest palm]

that's not using

[obsidian ivy]

[forest palm]

at that point just drag her

[wind hazel]

yeah it's fine really

[hollow gust]

Option 2: Process to get spotted first in w14 and nuked before the boss even spawns

[molten zinc]

I use her for Warspite CM

[wind hazel]

well i wouldnt bring uvh to w14

[eternal basalt]

If that was true off-flag UvH is the most powerful one in game

[wind hazel]

[hollow gust]

So she won't be used in w14 or w15 so where else to use her

[wind hazel]

up to 13

dude is just grinding exp for her tech anyway, it's irrelevant

[hollow gust]

She is still a UR when flag , she is mid as fuck but her flag is still pretty strong

[wind hazel]

just flag her if using on mob, save the trouble

or offlag. it doesn't matter. i think -45% still destroy the shit ships in w12

[nimble knoll]

Should I switch da +10 HD For A +6 Barracuda?

[forest palm]

Helldiver

[fervent hazel]

any of the event ships worth an mlb?

[elfin hollow]

Who should I get

[forest palm]

in terms of will you use them for any practical reason? no, most all ships this event are Tech Fodder

[atomic abyss]

shinano to mlb first

[wind hazel]

blucher pretty good

[turbid marsh]

uvh shinano mlb?

[forest palm]

event ships are running into the issue where accessible ships are just better more often than not, like you can just take Portland and Anchor, and be on your merry way

[elfin hollow]

just did shinano

[wind hazel]

well you dont know if that guy has access to anchorage yet or not

[elfin hollow]

but I kind of wanted to get New Jersey cause shes litteraly my wife

[wind hazel]

blucher is very good for 2nd fleet if they need a new tank

[worldly pewter]

and don't do that

[eternal basalt]

Then get her

[elfin hollow]

too late

gotta wait another 400 pulls

[eternal basalt]

cockblocked by gph

[turbid marsh]

then get her.. oh okay

[crimson glacier]

its just kinda annoying progress wise when NJ is kinda just all around worse than the limited UR BBs

[obsidian cliff]

Is bulcher better than prince enzgen?( building a boss fleet)

[elfin hollow]

she is?

[turbid marsh]

i feel like its not a big difference bewteen eugen and bulcher but maybe im too intoxicated in the top performers

[crimson glacier]

NJ is old and has no utility so time hasnt been kind to her

but she is still UR BB so she can do most stuff just fine

[turbid marsh]

need iowa*

[crimson glacier]

its just annoying since bulins are so limited

[elfin hollow]

very

[molten zinc]

she got that FP increase for USS BB/BC but the problem is there're no UR BB/BC that are USS

[turbid marsh]

need iowa with shinano level buff to boost NJ too

[molten zinc]

and we all know how SR BB compare to UR

[crimson glacier]

i dont think that would help NJ but who knows

[hollow gust]

New Jersey is a good 2nd option far easier to use then UVh

[forest palm]

unironically Ulrich is the worst gacha UR BB

[cobalt rapids]

how is Ulrich harder to use than NJ ...

[hollow gust]

She is worse as flag, and has stupid restrictions off flag.

[turbid marsh]

bismark saved her a little bit in anti light but thats it XD

[cobalt rapids]

ill take uvh over nj any day

[hollow gust]

Off flag BBs intercept way worse , and the standard these days is 1 BB as flag

[cobalt rapids]

uvh can better flag than nj unless its like w15

[forest palm]

NJ doesn't need flag is the thing though...

[elfin hollow]

ive just been using consti and Alsace as my flags

[obsidian cliff]

Thoughts on this boss fleet I’m making?(primce eugen, kiev, Helena retro, hood, taihou, hornet)(1month player , my mob fleet is 115 so I’m investing on boss fleet now.)

[hollow gust]

And that's not to mention single target bossing. NJ works better with other UR BBs , and she gets to work with the best damage amps in the game

[eternal basalt]

-Eugen

[soft raft]

What world are you at?

[forest palm]

will say it time, and again Ulrich is too unwieldy to get the desired results

[hollow gust]

FDG is more preferably then Ulrich for most players

[cobalt rapids]

except nj is cycled out way faster while uvh can still have a niche

[obsidian cliff]

Been farming chp10 so far

[wind hazel]

kiev a little sus, and eugen is also a little sus if you haven't invested bulin

[forest palm]

Ulrich hasn't been given a niche since the year she came out

[hollow gust]

What niche? Content that other ships clear way better

[soft raft]

I kinda wonder why Hood is on the boss fleet

[cobalt rapids]

alright

[soft raft]

Would be easier if you posted your dock in a thread so we can get a better idea of who you have

[cobalt rapids]

just apply ur argument to nj aswell then

[obsidian cliff]

Gotchu, and I’m not home unfortunately so I can’t rn lmaooo

[hollow gust]

Okay? NJ is just a basic bitch UR BB that does well enough in all content . Ulrich only advantage is a gimmick that have no applicable content. She is just worse then Nj

[obsidian cliff]

Gotchu

[crimson glacier]

uvh without gimmick isnt much worse

and its kinda just true and she still has that option while NJ has nothing

[hollow gust]

It's basically never applicable , might as well doesn't exist

If you don't want Nj that's perfectly fine , FdG is more useable then Ulrich

[turbid marsh]

general use i vote NJ too, uvh only has that anti light niche with bisz + fast hit the shields and summons tbh

which is like.. what, 1 boss content per like 3 months or something, and replaceable too

[forest palm]

even then you could probably get better results with Alsace

[turbid marsh]

(soy)

[crimson glacier]

alsace beats both so

[hollow gust]

Other UR brute forcing perform better then Ulrich gimmick

[crimson glacier]

and that applies to NJ too

[hollow gust]

[hollow gust]

.

[eternal basalt]

And the next. UR beats these old ones too...

[crimson glacier]

but i dont think she is worse than NJ

probably isnt better either

[turbid marsh]

i like NJ barrage cross fleet XD

[worldly pewter]

what is nj xfleet skill ?

[cobalt rapids]

bisko is on bad but synced gun in case it isnt obvious

[crimson glacier]

its similar to her barrage

was it around 10 sec or something

[worldly pewter]

i don't use nj so i don't know her barrage too

[cobalt rapids]

she buffs eagle cv fleets
but uvh xfleet is way better for keeping conceal in opsi if that is a point of argue

[crimson glacier]

well its similar to georgia barrage 🙂

doesnt NJ need uss flag for the cv buff

[cobalt rapids]

yea thats why i said eagle cv

[crimson glacier]

you can have eagle CV without eagle flag

[hollow gust]

What boss even is that

[cobalt rapids]

helmet

[worldly pewter]

nj kear yk2 against light ?

[crimson glacier]

how many helena procs

[hollow gust]

My helmet is long dead

[cobalt rapids]

2 or 3
vang finished it off so bisko and nj didnt shoot their last salvo and neither did uvh her last 2

[worldly pewter]

early game progression
we care about everything

especially the ur bulin investment

[hollow gust]

damn these numbers are depressing , this is 1 proc Helena

[cobalt rapids]

taihou ?

[hollow gust]

2-Proc and yes it taihou

[turbid marsh]

ew uvh vs heavy

[hollow gust]

My other metas are cleared out

[turbid marsh]

test this in newcastle

[hollow gust]

That's a terrible place to test shit

[worldly pewter]

u can't do any fight when u clear a dossier ?

[hollow gust]

That's super based against UVH

[cobalt rapids]

makes sense

[cobalt rapids]

if u reach 70k pts u cannot fight it anymore unless a guildmate/friend hosts it for you

[turbid marsh]

did jintsuu m drop yet?

[hollow gust]

460 UVH isnt that off

Also with the abundance of mk7s UVH doesn't feel that special against lights either

[stark quiver]

What about 100 alts

[hollow gust]

NJ suffers slight more from not being oathed but oh well

[tender girder]

I WANT ALSACE

[worldly pewter]

nj also doesn't suffer much when she has 170 hit stat

[tender girder]

BUT SHE NOT GONNA RETURN IN 1.5 YEARS

[soft raft]

Literally who asked

#al-general is that way if you want to cope, not here

[hollow gust]

Giving them attention is worse

[sharp echo]

if my common ship already mlb, can i retire them or should i 120 them?

[stark quiver]

Some commons give good tech

[turbid marsh]

i would recommend 120 before retiring

[sharp echo]

ooof

[turbid marsh]

but if you are not a fan of meta player, then i guess skipping some tech won't hurt you too much.

[fickle hollow]

does the %of slow increase on Ark royal with every lvl on her skill or does it remain the same from lvl 1 to lvl 10

[clever lance]

Is there is tier/priority list equivalent for characters to 120 ?

[stark quiver]

120 ships you’re gonna use
Then 120 tech ships

[stark quiver]

Starts from 30%

[fickle hollow]

ends at?

[clever lance]

Yeah. Looking for 120 tech priorities

[stark quiver]

Dd is fp
Cl/ca is fp,hit,Eva
Bb is rld hit fp
Cv is rld,hit , avi

Rld takes prio for backline

[storm heron]

hehe

[clever lance]

What follows rld?

[molten zinc]

RLD > HIT > FP/AVI

[stark quiver]

I mean, try to get high rld, and then just mix hit and fp/avi

[hollow gust]

Rld has been lower and lower prio, many of the timings use medium to low

[forest palm]

you will notice the RLD Tech less than the Hit Tech

[white agate]

RLD> +2 hit/avi/fp > hit > fp/avi imo

does sb know a good fleet comp for farming combat xp for Harbin?

[atomic abyss]

the DDG retros + yat sen retro

[hollow gust]

In half the new meta fights rld is set at <20

[white agate]

only if you have the right comp tho

[hollow gust]

And even when they aren't , 3 shot doesn't require extremly high rld

CVs aren't Helena reliant anymore , they can pull of a lot more timings

[worldly pewter]

it depends on the dock mostly
not everyone can max rld tech
not everyone can do helenaless comp

[glossy granite]

How is usually Fritz best paired with to get most out of her or what kind of fleet for her

are any of these gold items worth bringing to +10? or +13? ... (besides hedgehog)

[forest palm]

Hedgehog, and Seafang, the rest are very eh...

[tender girder]

+10 for seafang? ok.

[left cedar]

i would keep them all, cuz gearlab update ... but imo, only Hedge is something usable

what about baracuda? (not in here)

only hedge I'd +13

Is independence rlly worth 1.2k core data

[spring bolt]

yes

still worth if 12k

[hollow trout]

I swear it was 11 something

[jaunty vault]

2-1 gang

[storm heron]

12-4 gang

[keen sable]

Long com gang

[eager mulch]

[keen sable]

I think auto sortie 4 year anniversary is near? That's the mistake.

[echo nexus]

getting close to the 400 pulls needed for the ur exchange, but i already have everyone currently on it
what should i do 🥲

[stark quiver]

exchange for whoever u like

if someone isnt mlb them, get dupes

[echo nexus]

everyone is already mlb

[stark quiver]

then exchange whoever u like
you can keep a dupe in dock to flex or smth
or just retire for spec core

[echo nexus]

i see i see
may just retire them then when i get up to it 😔

[turbid marsh]

or get 5 star, 4 star and 3 star for fleet power XD

[forest palm]

[cobalt gate]

Best way to farm affinity?

[stark quiver]

sortie with 2x plan

[storm heron]

affinity just doubles right?

or is there a bonus affinity for using 2x

[stark quiver]

well, best way is to just go to a low oil cap map and farm farm farm

[wanton swallow]

when is the next ur event?

[turbid marsh]

20th

[viscid swift]

maybe

[boreal wagon]

20th is gear lab we dont know if that will be the next UR
nothing was really announced yet

[viscid swift]

probably a week later though

[turbid marsh]

oh another dead with in between pre and this event? nice. i can actually finish some frontlines

[left cedar]

i dont remeber a UR without a Stream ... so ... i doubt that will be 20th

[cobalt gate]

This event is like the lowest stamina lock cost right

[keen sable]

Current Event

[unreal star]

I know everything is situation and context-dependent, but that being said, is there a general list somewhere of which special augments are worth considering and which to avoid?

[cedar stirrup]

Worth it ?

[stark quiver]

yeh

shop prios are pinned

[worldly pewter]

the ship that u want to use has the higher priority

[keen sable]

Yes but I don't have link on hand

[undone plover]

https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/augment-modules
check the new SKK column if u are new

[unreal star]

ty

[chrome jackal]

how do the EX stages work?

[stark quiver]

you pass the stage to get 500 cogs

[crisp estuary]

Who next?

[stark quiver]

whoever has better 120 tech

[crisp estuary]

[dreamy blade]

would be QEM for bb hit tech

[stark quiver]

the only backline with good tech
and if u wnt algerie for ca fp

[crisp estuary]

Waste of dockspaces then

[dreamy blade]

meta ships dont take dock space

[crisp estuary]

New QoL

[stark quiver]

not new, been here for quite a while now

[crisp estuary]

[dreamy blade]

personally i just unlocked every meta ship first for the collection tech, then get to 9k points for the 5k coins

[storm heron]

just do everything to 1k points or 20% or 2 sorties

get like 6k gold everytime you do that

42k gold in 1 cycle

[dreamy blade]

also some cog chips

[sweet delta]

How does one get 7k EX

[dreamy blade]

https://youtu.be/LPysbZVXLis

[storm heron]

yea like in above

or something like this

[dreamy blade]

lv1 nagato and helena probably a bit more realistic than the lv1 amagicv

[sweet delta]

This doggo character just used Every in a pure CV fleet

[stark quiver]

that cat looks cursed

[storm heron]

I don't have anything better I assure you

or at least I believe so

like could this one be better?

[stark quiver]

yes

[sweet delta]

This one is way better than Every I assure you

[stark quiver]

this one is better than both every and the other cat you used

[storm heron]

how is like 45 avi be better than 36 avi + 3% damage though

or the bisha is 40 avi + 3%

[stark quiver]

that was flame?

that was infact flame

[sweet delta]

does +20 rld means you can use slower TBs

[storm heron]

let's see what lars calc says

[stark quiver]

yk what, this calls for ranger gaming

[storm heron]

so this is the one I used

[sweet delta]

Actually why CV

[stark quiver]

zStig
can bbs one strike

[sweet delta]

According to larsdb the boss has 600 AA, and BBs are cheaper too

[storm heron]

wait what

[stark quiver]

3 bb cannot one strike

its time to use plan C

[sharp socket]

what is this harby?

what is he cooking

[stark quiver]

this is ex cooking

[storm heron]

tbh you're right that I can use a slower tb

time to try

Last time I got it at 04:17 timer

[stark quiver]

can 5 oil fleet one fleet 10-4

[storm heron]

big d

Idk tbh, it hit 04:19 just right before the torp landed, but shinano's torp was too far back and only hit when it reaches 04:16. Maybe I can retry and launch earlier

[stark quiver]

wheres your oathed 125 ranger?

[storm heron]

same score idk , this time I landed just like before 04:17

[storm heron]

nope, don't have it, ranger reset is too brainless

[stark quiver]

it takes willpower

[storm heron]

if I get one I wouldn't be able to replicate it in like 7 minutes like I did

tbh this EX is not that hard, you don't even need 50 speed or something

[robust jasper]

[hushed sorrel]

is there some reward for ex? i never tried that

just one or twice auto fleet and then lost and that was my willpower xD

[storm heron]

I tried beacon +7 on amagi and got 7046

require some critfishing though, I finished it after like 4 attempts

[weary gust]

Usually 500 cog chips for a clear. (one time only)

[storm heron]

yeah if you wanna use auto fleet you have to use some invincibility like jeanne and eldridge and laffii

or else you can just manual and get away with some level 1 helena (there's an easy manual guide)

[hushed sorrel]

there is? i think i will give it a chance

500 cog isnt that much :U

[storm heron]

https://youtu.be/uPpSf9CbPvI?si=v4hoWZ6lRpRl90BO

[keen sable]

maybe fame and fortune will entice you then. well not fortune, maybe not even fame.

shame maybe

[hushed sorrel]

haha :D

[storm heron]

ofc go for something else stronger (more vanguards, 3 actual main fleets)

[blazing maple]

question, how good is that German bomber

[keen sable]

should be like the first thing you make in ops

[hushed sorrel]

i should be able to manage. thank you

[storm heron]

german torpedo bomber? they are good for single target boss fight when you know you can hit the enemy, not a priority, though you will make some of them eventually

[blazing maple]

I've made them for August and Graf Zeppelin (because she was the best German CV I had, currently leveling up both August and Rumey)

[storm heron]

well don't use that for campaign

[blazing maple]

I see.

[storm heron]

the point of those planes is that you can land all torps and deal massive damage

in campaign you either don't have the enemy to tank that massive damage (wasted damage) or you don't have a stopper to stop the enemies from moving (missed torpedoes)

[hollow gust]

Graf kinda needs them

[stark quiver]

i mean its hard to miss in w14

[keen sable]

great stuff on avp

[storm heron]

[blazing maple]

I see

and thanks

[nimble knoll]

Is the Type 0 Fighter even good?

[viscid swift]

no

[stark quiver]

0 = zero worth

[soft raft]

It's more like for converging torpedoes to not completely whiff, they need to be synced to a slow/freeze utility close enough for them to do so

Which is heavily not recommended in campaign

[nimble knoll]

Then should I disassemble?

[forest palm]

May as well

[storm heron]

wait graf and avp actively needs them it seems

[keen sable]

kind of curious what goes to tenrai actually

[storm heron]

like they are on the top of ectl recommendation

[keen sable]

i wouldn't...

[hushed sorrel]

maybe the bomber could also work in pvp. since killing a target could be better then losing some hp

[storm heron]

nah pvp you just use wyvern

[stark quiver]

mayb suisei?

[soft raft]

That's mainly due to one of their skills needing a German plane

[stark quiver]

ill be dammed if i gotta run a german fighter in campaign

[nimble knoll]

In W9, Could I Use Two Fleets, Or only When i Reach worlds higher?

[storm heron]

yeah I was probably contectually incorrect but then they didn't bite back saying their skills for some reason

[stark quiver]

if u have a decent 2nd fleet sure

[rapid grail]

no put them on an unused CV/L for the fleet power stat
honestly if you want, you could. just that it is recommended to NOT use it

[keen sable]

claiming avp will miss because she uses using converging torps is misinfo

@ xeno just remember don't farm 9 actually why are you even looking at 9? should be all in on event.

[storm heron]

well I technically didn't but yeah I guess

[nimble knoll]

-# talkin to me orr

[storm heron]

also serious question, did houshou got removed from world 15 or did she never drops in w15 in the first place

[nimble knoll]

I needed more xp

[keen sable]

9 is less xp...

[stark quiver]

15-3

[nimble knoll]

Damn

[keen sable]

i mined it myself

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/15-3

[white agate]

now mine me the % to get flaming

[storm heron]

ok ok so wiki had something wrong back then

[stark quiver]

how do you mine it

[stark quiver]

yes until i changed it

[keen sable]

....same way nagami does

[stark quiver]

which is?

i dont mine stuff so
i wouldnt know

[storm heron]

where though

are you actually ender?

[white agate]

i think they open the game file and read with search and find, hopefully it's ok to do

[storm heron]

[stark quiver]

i changed houshous page
15-3 says it drops

[storm heron]

oh I see I se

[keen sable]

sounds like a question for wiki-team

[keen sable]

you can wait for someone to show it but if you count the spaces backwards from tenn you'll see where houshou should be.

[white agate]

btw did you do 7k on the ex?

[stark quiver]

scroll up

[white agate]

bruh, i avoided the bullets i did not go behind them

[storm heron]

I don't think a level 1 would be able to avoid them that way

unless it's time to use that second laffii u kept under basement

[keen sable]

the chief drop tends to have sr drop rates. See houshou og, bunnies, sendai, jintsu, columbia, etc. i farmed the cdc for fdg AND odin and never got sendai

[storm heron]

and u can tank like 17 times?

[keen sable]

:laffeyhide:

i don't have laffy 2 or z5 2 or mogaduex

[white agate]

how

[sweet delta]

Laffii can tank 24 hits without healing, possibly even more depending on her max hp

[lavish scroll]

How good is Algérie? Is she good at mobbing or bossing, and does she require the same fraction to be good? I just saw her skill just burn

[viscid swift]

she is CA FP tech

[blissful hamlet]

which is better vs medium, +10 la9 or +13 converging torps? yes it's for flex slot

[rapid grail]

there are better options for her hull type and rarity
faction you mean? nah. i'd recommend Saint Louis at fs5 w/ aug myself though, that one is better in campaign at least

[viscid swift]

should be La-9

[blissful hamlet]

[inland shoal]

La9 against med is quite cracked, it should be better by about 25% already

[blissful hamlet]

I just did the math and +10 la9 is only microscopically better than +13 conv torps vs medium

[sweet delta]

Your math sucks then

[inland shoal]

Or you count 1260 as only microscopically greater than 1038

[blissful hamlet]

+10 la9 vs +13 vit2

[storm heron]

+10 la9

[viscid swift]

you do know that's about a 21% difference still right?

[blissful hamlet]

oh wait it is lmao

[inland shoal]

You should probably consider getting a better microscope

[eager mulch]

[forest palm]

I'd like it if people refute claims (Suchi), and actually back it up, and you know make this a more productive learning experience rather than the 5 y/o response

wait that may be too much for Suchi's ego
