Thanks
This is what I ended up giving her after I discovered she (Agir) didn't have any equipment 😅. Does this look OK? I don't have any UR gear for vanguard ships.
oh yea thats fine
if u can try to give her a cb gun
How do I determine if a gun is a cb gun?
do u have this
Guns that are 283mm and above 
in depot it's under BB guns
so far ingame only these
if you want to filter CB gun only ingame, click on CB main gun slot then filter by BB guns
sort by bb
Oh! I think I can make it? Is this it?
I assume I should be giving this to Agir and not Heinrich? She's my other tank.
agir gun also has a cb hull restriction
heinrich is not a CB
heinrich can only equip 283mm
heinrich can use the 283
that gun is 305 or something
It has been made and equipped! I ran out of purple enhancement manuals so I got stuck at +8 on the gun but oh well. Good enough for now.
Is dis gud?
its usable if u have no better
nothing
Dont pull a zoro on me i need context yes
should i spend all of my ur bp to dev30 my fdg? or wait for proto shop
You know you can scroll back up right?
Its gone
just coin her up and convert all DR2 prints to prototype cores
Fuckin neither of those
Only use blanks on the highest season it goes up to, and BPs in protocore are heavily overpriced (6 BPs worth of protocore per BP)
Just coin her
If you can coin any ship it isn't worth buying blueprints for anything other than coins
Except maybe guild tokens, although those aren't common
DR4/PR5.
should i be worried about completing the PR1 ships while im only commander lvl 50
im assuming theres a better way to farm exp down the road
or any of the PR ships for that matter
You're going to want to make at least 1 ship from each season eventually just for the free Protocore and BPs. Hell, in the long long run you'll probably make them all.
But yes, not yet. Worry about it when you reach oil cap worlds. Hell, maybe not even until w12.
start worrying about it when you have one stable fleet, and able to make 2nd fleet
at this point you normally have some exp data cores
but yeah I'd say don't do it until it's a quest
*Note that you always convert these into protocore, no exception
even for FdG ?
Yes
Because the XP grind is the easy part of research
Prepping for w13 push
Uhh is the ultra rares on heavy build permanent now ?
if it’s heavy it’s permanent
if it’s event it’s not
Dnagg I'm eating good
*loud incorrect buzzer*
cries hardly
does it make sense to grab pr7 rigging research when they pop up for la-9 prints (im on pr5 focus) or is that too cope
if the other research are shit, sure
wouldnt pass especially 0.5Q one
really depends on what you get though. if they are all 1hr Q then i wouldnt bother
the specific example that i have rn is 1hr pr7 Q vs 2.5hr pr5 G, i usually always take the 1hr pr5 Q or faces
i'd take the Q

If I get Sandy's Aug, should I replace Retro Laffey?
isn't Retro Laffey a DD ?
Unless u need asw ye
Sandy has one of the best ASW in the game anyways
use sandy on 2nd fleet, replace laffey only when she's 120
you barely have a working 2nd fleet... stop thinking about replacing anyone from your main fleet when nobody is maxed out
I think they strongly dislike the starter fleet
😭 but starter fleet good
especially the vanguard. helena and DD starter go to 120 easily
i wonder if I should use Portland in my 2nd fleet
I wish, when I started I had gph help
my Helena went to 125
oh yeah? mine went to 125 and oath
well mine went to 125 AND double oath
(jk, I oathed Yuudachi, and now I regret it...)
Which One Shud I Use to replace da Blue Hydraulic Steering On My Helena 
Nothing
you don't have Beaver Squad Medal ?
if anything, remove one toolkit from sandy, and give one to helena
give another steering to sandy
Mi?
Just for Extra Health 
They infact do not
And I’d recommend not throwing all your books into it
also doesn't Helena gets some buff with a Radar equipped ?
yeah don't throw your books but like if the beavs can do the commissions it's good i'd say
-# I've Just been doing random ahh ships to do the comms
Helena retro gets 16s first scan instead of 20
oh ok
Don't have her Retrofitted yet-
(Should I do that now?)
you have Unicorn retrofit yet ?
I do
u have Portland retro or starter retro ?
I have both
Does UR's need more cogs and coins to Awaken or something? Cuz she needs 15k and 1500 cogs to awaken to be able to get to 120-
Wait a sec, that’s the same for every Portland 💀
Should I Awaken Enty, Helena, Uni, And Laffey First, Or Do Yt2 and Uni?
york enty uni
so, uh, Y2 got an Essex class passive
I have a lot of them, worth putting em in a fleet, and if so, which ones ?
for what
for a 2nd fleet, or 3rd fleet, or even OPSI potential
she gets paired with enterprise most of the time if you're lacking the shinies
chat this just cost 500 coins to make
I have a feeling it's another "No" from y'all
okay thanks for the info! Might hopefully get to pull her on 400 pity soon
I mean that's late game opti stuff
nah she ain't on the pity + you choose at the pity
I got those funny guns from farming research missions
unfortunately for you, she isn't on permanent pool yet
btw can I level my UR all the way to 125 even at 3* ?
I got two proto guns that I can't use T_T
but I'm slowly making my way to hopefully pulling the one on the far end of the priority list in the charts
consider asking before wasting your coin
I'm kinda above the limit tho and it keeps on stacking XD
the soft cap prevents you from picking up coins from your academy
yeah might be good idea to save up
especially knowing that I might use up to 300k coins to pull a UR
dont slack on your research academy
true use the coin for research or for coining research development
just so I know, These two are supposed to be obtained late game, right? These two are the rewards I'm getting recently aside from the musashi gun
not saying I want them crafted asap, I just wanna know if these are worth grabbing the moment it hits 25
you're doing something wrong
what research focus are you on?
getting the rudder is very normal and you should craft them asap
but the bottom gun is very not normal. are you on pr1? or no focus at all
wtf. what's your time
2:20
oath diff gg, p2w game
What ships aren't oathed lol
i only have helena oathed 
Not bad if you are using the same comp as me
ye same comp
is PR5 good for gear research ?
for plygun yes
I guess I'm getting some Brest guns on the side
these bad ?
id say its bad
yes
which skill to focus for kerasage first?
does it matter when you max them all anyway
well since she is not MLB nor LV100 yet, i probably gonna slow dump resource into her
then it doesn't matter
id say do 2 in last
are you suppose to run double shell on her?
sure
well on the bright side of thing, my agir almost MLB
guys nakhimov UL or gear UL
i'd take gear
implacable crossfleet skill seems like it's for bossing content only?
like if you do a campaign stage, her passive won't even get to trigger during boss fight because it gets used up in the 3 initial mobs battle right?
Hi should i wait for New ur or full mlb unzen
Wait for the next UR ( which is coming in the end of Feb ) then decide
which CL guns are good on Rumey? I've just been running one I had at +6 for the time being, but wanted to know which ones are good
Unsure, would put a Ply gun, or if I am wrong, a Neptune Gun/Felix Gun should work 
My Shinano does more damage when she equips Skyraider instead of Helldiver 
my best against Taihou Meta
ok
just got hakuryuu should I place her in my mob fleet or boss fleet(pretend san Diego is there in the empty slot)?
Is the event gun BiS for anything where I'd want a second copy? I already got it from the first time.
not really
if you have the CAs that really need good guns they would have it already
Okie, tyty.
generally just use a staag, if interception is needed 155kai (w14)
i see, ty!
looking at the stats fritz rumey's cl gun have like 7% of that BBs secondary
but oh well I guess at least they penetrate shields 
is this for w14
?
if this is for w13,you can place her in the mob fleet, replacing taihou
if this is for w14, you can replace whatever, you're gonna fail the mob anyways
sorry late reply ^^:::
Anyways I am focusing on St. Louis (not yet getting her but I'm on my way)
is brunhilde the event ship worth levelling up?
they said she's kinda "Okay"
also is ticonderoga essex or intrepid the best for levelling up or are they all good
oh alr
Essex I can vouch for. Ticon or Intrep idk maybe the vets can vouvh for that
oki tq
you're looking at the wrong research
go to your Research Academy, bottom right, change the PR/DR focus to 5
make it like this
What is this for
/wiki akashi questline
just came back playing after 5~ or so months, wat should i do chat
should I develop agir hindy or felix?
just play the game really
i honestly dont know wat to prioritize atm
you can start coining agir i guess
u can coin agir now??
push campaign if you want, do opsi, do event, it's the same thing
daym, should i prio building amagi or nah?
wait for new UR then decide
ur fleets are already giga overkill for w13
it doesn't matter if u change a ship or not
Should I do the X5 daily or just the the hardest one is the best option?
x5 daily is free for sp1,2 nad 3; just use 3 oil fleet and crossfleet barrages
if u can lowcost sp1-sp3 then its worth doing it
sp4 can do 1 run with the team you are leveling

I mean you can also do sp1/2 with a 1:1 fleet
does an shan + uni count as low
no, that is like 20 oil iirc; low cost would be ranger 0lb at level 70 and cassin/downes or another manuan at level 70 olb
uni still costs oil, ranger would be optimal(still better using like 13 oil than 70)
ranger mlb or 0lb but lvl 70 ?
0lb level 70
for that to work i advise once ranger and cassin are level 70 olb to full enchance them and partially retrofit them
so cassin + ranger both lb0 lvl 70 best option?
ok ill start working on them then, if ranger skill not max does it still work?
yeah, but to be fair ranger skill and downes skill can be quite ueful, but for sp1,2 they should work with it at 1
for this event, ill start leveling up her skills later on
so downes is better then cassin
they should be the same, all manuhans really; i don't thing the hp/dps difference if there is any is relevant
What auxes do you run on Mogador? Besides toolkits.
a gold HP Aux
use the command of the same name in bot spam 
So, Goldburn, Cyanidin, Alizarin, RPG?
oh 3q
musashi,soyuz and alsace are the strongest crossfleets, i would advise using 2 of them plus amagi cv for avi requirements and since her crossfleet is at least mid
i put mushi alsace vangard , guam shimakaze
Hello all. I think I need to use a BC to get the torp requirements for hard maps. Above are the ssr BCs I have.. which of them can be used to tackle hard maps?
you've only got Hood and Brunhilde for BCs
And Brunhilde has more torp stat tho I'd prob just try and shift your vanguard around more and use Hood instead, mainly since your Brunhilde is currently barely raised at all
Oh? Hood is a bc? But she got like no torp stat tho...
how are BCs related to torps
That's not how it works
I am thinking of using BCs to get the torp requirements for hard modes...
So my choice is kinda between kii, suruga and brunhilde..
I am willing to invest 4 gold bullins to clear higher hard modes.
Currently, its kinda hard to get the trop stat requirement without punishing my vanguard with torp gears
sounds kinda weird to me, arent BC locks kinda rare
who do u use for your vanguards?
and why not just get vanguards with torps since they have a lot more torp
And this is me using torp auxes and they are still not enough
stcik kazagumo in there?
I do not have kazagumo...
well yeah you are using ships with really low torp stats
Sandy, helena and portland have even more low torp stat..
that doesnt make those ships any better
and even if you got torp you are still missing a lot of AA
Just forget this hard mode and do an earlier one
But I need the BB prints...
so do lower world
Do a lower chap
Also why are you even using Eldridge
I'm pretty sure you don't have her retrofit item
But a lower map than 12 do not even give cog chips...
how much cog chips do you think hard mode gives lol
My dude, hard mode cog chips income is negligible in comparison
Oh...?
Like 150 a day?
I guess scrap my idea to use a bc go get hard mode? Just raise ayanami and yuudachi?
You get 20-30 per run of W13
You can get the same 150 within ~6 runs
In the first place
Only end game players shd have cog chip shortages
Mid-late game players shd have cog array shortages
really? barely anything is worth using arrays
Because you will likely 125 a lot of ships in one go when you're at that point
After a certain point you won't have many ships to 125
Ah... But I can not confidently unlock 125 for avp because yk2 and z52 is in line..
But you'll be pushing ships to 120 for fleet tech
225 for URs to 125, i have only 500s of those...
Exactly what I mean
If your goal is BB retro BPs
Then prio that over your cog chip income
So AvP is stucked at 120.. with independence and others
i dont think avp is worth 125 anyway
It is if you don't got impla/nakhi
but is that true
Well impla rerun is soon but UR-in shortage is real
he has plenty of URs
at what point is brainless UR spam just stronger than avps support
My next bullins are for z52...
Heavy armour only basically
And even that requires eld retro
prioritizing the URs for the arrays is the easiest choice there 
Torva pls
Yo how do I beat lv 95 backline disruption
you can just... BB
CVs can't hit for fuck otherwise
Royal Fortune breaks the submarine weekly raid
musasi against light is kinda meh TBH
High level subs with level gear.
do like me , buy arrays from core data and event shop, now i have enough for 12 UR's
I am doing this tomorrow... I am still leveling my ix sub
If all my PRs are maxed, which Research Focus is the most valuable in terms of gear?
S rank:
- battle under 180 seconds,
- kill 3 cargo ships, and ignore everything else.
- kill 2 bosses.
Lvl 110+ subs are recommended, along with +10 purple gear.
oxy torps are helpful as they give extra ammo.
#azurlane
as a new player i started having an array releaf after 6 months of playing i think
5 or 7
prob 5 or 7
Mainly cuz Tenrai will be added to gear lab next week
It depends on what rainbow gear you want more really
yep, that was the point where i had started buying them from event and core data shop
(nevertless first level 120 or 125 idr missions helps too)
Is that northern parliament aux necessary
I am at 3months or so...
Which one?
And for who?
also the daily raid income is very huge
For the royal fortune vid
no everything can be made unnecessary if you just moar something else
the mission that tells u to make x number of ships to 125
?
should I finish Roon or start the FdG research?
I have 1.5 R7 planes & 2 R5 guns, so I guess 7 it is then. Thanks for the answer
too bad you have 220 bp 
whats bad about it
where did you get 220 fdg prints before even starting her tech
also I forgot,what are the research types that I should avoid
research
1.47 rainbows vaporized for fdg in 29 days instead of 51
do /research in #bot-spam or something
Who to pickup next for the 400 pity?
shinano mlb
is your shinano maxed
Decked out 125 MLB
then either nj or uvh id say
also I just came back from last playing in November,what's this bonus
Also is kronshtadt good? Few friends of mine are recommending it
id say she is the worst ur release in the game
Comission event, you can exchange them for cubes and stuff in the event shop
commission exchange plan. play game get stuff
I'm being trolled by my friends then
ah that's neat
like she is a fine tank but theres other better tanks, tho you might not have them
that's not who you're being trolled by
Lol
Hi ! i have difficulty to find a good source of all the cross fleet assist i can have? any could help me make a 6 member cross fleet viable for most faction?
kronk is the only UR who was already powercrept during her own release
#bot-spam /crossfleet there's only so many to pick from
My current tanks are: Z52, Roon w/Aug, Roon muse, Heinrich
for shinano/pity urs you're not meant to use bulins on them right?
Everyone is maxed out
well she is a lot better than any of those but if you get agir she is just better than kronk
Wait really? I bulined my nano
any cross fleet not lock to specific faction?
bulins are better saved for new URs
caveat you can if rich
this good backline lineup for FdG grind?(ignore Neptune she's just there to fill a slot)
I'll keep that in mind, I bulined nano so I can use her with magi
all ships are good enough for pr exp grind
yeah, that and faction fleet technology too starts to pack up quite a bit of cogn arrays
also,anything new from November 2024,cause that's the last time I've played
what are the major ones I should know of?
Musashi Rerun Nov 14th
To Love Ru collab Nov 21st
Fritz Rumey was the UR for the Dec slot on the 19th
Kronstadht got added to perma Jan 9th
Fu Shun got her DDG Retorfit Jan 16th
And the current rerun we have right now
most of them? most people generally ignore the faction part. especially like biskii's
highly likely to have a new UR later this month as well
I left right after the Musashi rerun
oh goodie,I have no cubes
pr5 coining. get your focus off 4. oceana, noshiro
you have any grap or list of them i try to find a list but information is 4 years old from kimoo :x
For meta rigging fortification do I basically just spam upgrade and I’m good
yes
he literally already gave you the bot command you can do
Ok thx
focus off 4? what focus do I do now then?
/crossfleet
@lusty dove tap #bot-spam in there type "/crossfleet"

OHHHHH =_= my bad
For u556 meta do fp and rld matter or just trp
whatever you need to finish/want from 5,6,7
well probably can ignore fp but 
Basically just focus on 5 6 or 7 since you can't coin them. Pr 4 and under you can coin for bps everyday 
anyone know the lantern fest answers?
got it
(You can coin the PR5 PRs as well)
And PR4's main remaining appeal after it was coinable was Tenrai but that's being added to gear lab next week
ohh thank you
Is NJ Good To Use With Enty And/Or Yt2? (Cause Of Her Skill)
use how?
15% More Avi
~~why are you asking about nj anyway
~~
Just Curious
Ah oop mb forgot bout that ye 
if you have a fleet to waste yes
15% More Avi Only Works If It's Crossfleet, And Not Like In The Same Fleet or Smth?
is it enough to make kears yorkii + enty competitive with placy? maybe? lower lows for sure.
i have difficulty comparing Kearsarge and indepedance skill they do the same thing? is kearsarge skill less powerfull?
Who's Placy?
they're not the same at all
implacable
oh, only independance affect all others team?
thank you
She's gonna have a rerun right? Or is it 🎲
she's one of the only one missing in little enty so i think she is next
kearsarge main feature is she frees up a useless vanguard ara slot for something good
soon™

Oh does PR7 not have fate simulation?
-# Shud I Get Sandy's Aug, Even Tho She's Not Retrofitted Yet, But MLB
sovesky need to be flagship to prok the avi bonus? i don't see the buff when she is not flagship? maybe only visual. ?
hile this ship is afloat , should be all position my bad
of course it's worth. cost limit good. more for less.
is it me or sp4 does not seem that bad per leveling compared to 12-1 only mob?
it's fine but very slow ie poor per morale metrics
more urgent commissions
which should i build first?
who do you have the retrofit item for?
which ever you like more 
if you already got the item
none i think
what item does they use? where to get?
fu shun item was for free in last event
important to know for sure. but if none then absolutely not fu shun
oh
i think i have the fushuin
then fu shun
okey
is fu shun not better antilight than an shan
iirc An Shan performs the best out of the DDG 
i always thought the best was tai yuan
afaik an shan is third
Anything wrong with my boss fleet? (Used both in camps and ops)
she's not better than ty for sure
fighter usually isn't used for opsi bossing, and idk what that 3rd gear is 
they're also using a 406 SKC with in AFCT, so Helena ain't doing shit for her
judging from its shiny background, that's a nope for opsi too
as far as this goes it's a bit of a mess with not a lot of cohesion
don't know where this is being used 
but yes it's a whole mess of anti synergy
could work for campaign, but in Ops bossing 🚮
I'm more worried Abt the gold plate usage
It's been a long time but what is synergy?
things that work better together.
for example your soyuz. she's using a HE gun, but you have a bowgun that reduces anti light damage for her. that's anti synergy
also using an AFCT with a barrage gun, so she will not benefit from Helena
That I forgot to give her the Soyuz gun
You see I quickly switched it
indeed i did not see that. which makes it anti synergy with NJ who is sporting a HE gun...
do you wanna fight light enemy or med/heavy enemy
depending on where this fleet is even used you'd drop Shinano altogether 
in opsi we tend to not mix cv and bb either, except very few exceptions
I think the compositional issue is that this is a boss fleet for both camps and ops which is a horrid idea
the vanguard auxes need some fixing too
I'm thinking of replacing NJ with Amagi or haku
boss fleets for campaign is usually 1bb+2cv with desync for damage uptime while bossing for opsi is usually focused on a singular armor type
again where the hell are you using this fleet?
Ah shit right...
Opsi is fairly easy for me now, I'm focusing getting to 14-4
Right now I'm at 14-3 50%
ok, world 14 fleet clears things up
My mob fleet is...not very optimal
just make a thread with your dock, honestly. The boss fleet is kind of a mess for w14
It's dead for weeks now
the aux and aa on the vanguards are very bad
also don't use helena in w14
STAAGs for all of them?
no just roomba for aa
also please look into using gold plates better. the spreading of +11 gear & +11 gears like 113 seem ill informed
do u have the beaver tag ?
what should i buy with meta crystals
Then make a new one
or dig up the old one and link it so people can find it
get the beaver tag and put it on agir
whatever you need
none of the ships there are urgent priority and the enhancment materials you can get in OpSi
rld tech
The trick to spending most limited resources in this game is that you can just save them until you are confident about resource usage
Do retrofits count towards the collection ratio?
yes
they have their own Dex Entries 
If I don't accept them will they be gone tmr?
no
But will new mission come?
No, if you filled 2 days
Rip so I need to clear it
Can someone help me understand the Arbiter in Op Si? I have all 125 level vangaurds but I've primairly gotten there through afk farming world stages
The arbiter on just normal is absolutely wiping my vanguard in around 15-30 seconds before I can really get a 2nd wave of CV strikes...
I have no idea how to prevent the damage
high adapts, good ships
Even Agir is getting wiped, surely she should be tanky enough yeah?
I noticed Shima was lasting longer
There’s a bunch of numbers and a roman numeral on the right side when you look at the big map. What’s the roman numeral?
IV
Something's wrong because even Sirius kaza helena should survive to two strikes, at least Helena should
bruh what
which one good to make for ss?
Might be lack of adapts then.
mk8
Your offense and survivability stats should be 203+
Even for normal? yeesh
Normal and Hard have the same values
ty
so I just need waaaaaay more here
These and their purple versions are the best for the submarine weekly raid. If you're going to craft transitional torps then might as well choose ones that are good for something
aiight thanks guys
yeah i need for the week raid
where can i find this web page btw?
i'm trying to make gear in the gear lab and i'm having trouble finding where to get the very first itme like this one: https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Single_76mm_(3"/50_caliber_gun)
it says "comes with ship drops"--is that just on ships i build?
just open some purple, or blue American Gear boxes
Open tech boxes or just craft it from the depot
If you tap the gear lab recipe's background, you don't even need to craft the material gun as an extra step
This blue gun doesn't lead to anything good in gear lab though
kk ty
that's for the common rarity version of the gun, the blue one is only from purple/blue american tech boxes
What are you even trying to do? Junkers d4 is a much better first craft. Also keeps you from scrapping blue gear prematurely.
Yeah so ops gave you some free stuff. Use that to craft something
What free stuff did opsi give other than a mk viii
need a third vanguard sakura ship to grind exp on, which here would be most useful to level?
they're all just tech so may as well use Watarase
Watarase ig
how often do th opsi shops reset now?
monthly
once a month
ok so the st petersburg shop has UR parts. I can only get 4 this month. Need to wait another month for 4 more?
err it has 2
realistically you can buy everything
HE-50B
sorry about the caps lock
Like this
The first 6 because 6 is better than 3
also i tend to use yuubari for cdc 
ty!
Do the skills of support CVs in W15 matter?
no skills functions in the support fleet, not for ship or gear
nope
Thanks.
is support fleet passive Intercept only ?
Greetings, could someone show me where this item is?
a dango plate?
idk, it tells in dining area so maybe try looking there in the 3 times of the day
on the table. if you have the purchased furniture set out, you might need to switch it to the default
does fritz have a stop/slow skill
Yes
but it's 30% max by default and you can buff it to 60% max with a whirpool debuff like BisZwei black hole
which basically translates to 
i have all the UR exchange ships but i'm at 400. What to do?
whatever u want
i could get an extra copy, i don't have them all LB
may as well
flexing my EX score
I made some better plane AA tests and the result is CN's choice by RLD performed among the worst of all setups I tested #media-content message
for a mob fleet in w14 who can tank better, kronshtadt or anchorage?
Kron would be better because of damage dealt, assuming equal investment
i see but theres not a better option than krons? at least for mob in w14
without count guam that i dont have her
laffey2
i dont have have her, sadly
well besides those two, we dont know who you have and what condition they're in so
Z52, laffii, Eldridge, Guam, Napoli, and some others
for tank?
i have z52 and eldridge to max, i dont have laffey 2 and neither guam, i have napoli but she is in dev 15
then just z52
or kron works well too
Z52, anyone, Eldridge
let me create a thread for show my dock xd
Also I discovered that Z52 can't tank w15 half tech wkthout zuihou
w14 help
what ab full tech
is this enough to be called half tech?
About in terms of offensive tech
Main Fleet tech so easy, why you so slow 
welp half tech is quite a high bar I see
not really a high bar 
low oiling and affinity grinding stuff took my exp probably
i have 24 bb fp and 8 cv hit
whale for oil la 
but then I would also have to whale for cog chips

Half tech means go to wiki, look at max tech stats, and literally have each number
So like only 14 BB HIT, 8 BB RLD, 129 DD HP
Why staags on main fleet for w15
this sounds familiar
accelerator (and hit)
I find it interesting that accelerators are already normalized to not go on the vanguard for w15 but alo still recommends staag spam for main fleet
idk, i think the other day someone said the round ones were better for main fleet in w15 due to randmge and aa gun abs cd being shit

gun in event shop worth or no
depends on what you have
whats ut good on
general CA gun
always worth grabbing limited gear
its a tad bit better
and basically free
okay
how good is the gold twin 380 SK C/34 main gun
Bad gun
Very bad
scrap it?
just throw it on a random ship
Imo I'd keep one to craft an FdG gun but even then idk how worth it is
not really worth
just use a IJN Twin 410 for roughly equal performance and for cheaper
i see
What should i buy in the event shop?
Which of the three would be best for me to go for?
is shinano mlb
She's 1 star off but I have enough UR bulins to mlb her and another UR ship
You can still pick Shinano to save that One Ur Bulin, she is the most priority after all than the rest
how many UR bulins do you have?
then get a dupe of shinano
kind of not worth spending UR Bulins on perm URs 
If it's not too much trouble, could you send me the image and the name of the item, I can't find it in sight, the stars don't appear to detect it.
we might have a new UR end of month, so you might as well save a bulin for her
rn I have 5
just get a shinano dupe
I don't even really use Shinano tho I don't know how to incorporate her into any fleet
do you have amagi cv?
use her everywhere or anywhere
Okay I don't have amagi cv
how ab hakuruyu?
She's really good and good anywhere but I hope you don't use shinano until now 
but like goose said, shes good anywhere, cuz shes a UR, anda very good one at that
Haven't built her yet
you should
I don't have enough Tech points yet to even start lol
I don't at all focus on Sakura Empire
but get the shinano dupe
so shes one star closer to mlb 
Well I guess I'll put her in my dorm to level she's only like 86 rn
WHERE DO I OBTAIN THIS
x-3 hardmode
Hard mode stages
specifically X-3 (12-3, 6-3, etc etc)
and shops
what is x
X = world #
like 12-3, 6-3, etc etc like I mentione earlier
oh ok
X-1 for DD, X-2 for CA/CL, and X-4 for CV/CVL as well

x-4 farmer i see
ive been doing 9-2 for the past 2 months like daily
Hmm any other way to get these T3 prints
Cuz to get them from hard mode is def rng lol
so is the gatcha but everyone has the ships
wiki might have some answers to your question
3* HM is guaranteed if that helps you
first run events are guaranteed but they stripped the rerun 

Guild shop sometimes has them, but still rng.
do 13-x they drop gold print the fastest imo
After a UR event reruns how long does it take for them to become Permament?
It roughly takes 1 year for a event to be perma after its rerun give or take
theres no actual data on it
UR events usually 2 years
my suggestion would be don't make fleets of 6 retroes or worse 12 retroes when starting like this
maryland, unicorn, indy, portland, Laffey, sandy
nelson, sara, ark, yat, helena, fu shun
That's for the rerun not archive
Events in general are ~2 years for rerun and ~1 for archive
Unless it's a raid event in which case their ships are directly archived the following year
Oh yea sorry me pepega EN
so I have 3 champy guns,what should I use my proto cores on now?
is soyuz gun just BiS for medium?
get all the ur weapons
Hi guys is Gulio Cesare META a bad ship? Thinking of max leveling her
Tenrai >>> 457 > Ply Gun >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CA Guns
+1 HIT is good but...
Basically all purple META ships are pretty bad
/protocore
Ahhh i see i was somehow lured in doing Yamashiro worst ship ever
Kills herself even if theres no enemies
Well vanguard dmg is usually lower than main fleet dmg anyway
No i mean it i put Volga for healing and she is still dying
can't trust ectl entirely because they don't believe in math but yammy meta is higher than penny so she's not terrible.
Is Magdeburg Gud?
nor gud, nor bad, just decent CL without something to being usefull or niched
T3 says no 
As the damage she takes is fixed probably is quite easy to heal late game but early on
small tip. never use non mlb ships.
you're not even saving any oil with a meta
What does Guild Tech Facilities do?
I'm trying to beat taihou on 13-4 hard with musashi shinano amagi cv, how many wyverns and flapjacks do I need to not die
0
maybe your vanguard lacks AA?
I tried with 2 beguet, 2 flapjacks, 1 tenrai and 1 sb3c on amagi and shinano, gave musashi the rainbow ijn gun and this AA
still dies lol
rn it's sandy agir cheshire with 3 AA radars across the board
and all +13 110mm
see as how you can kill taihou with 4 and probably even less ships these days the problem isn't wyverns or flapjacks
and that aa is awful on musashi
seeing as how cheshire can solo 13-4...
she can solo 13-4 hard?
ahh sorry my bad missed the hard
don't use the 460...
you probably need to smooth out your damage
Don’t use agir
don't use aa radars is more like it...
you can just make a thread
like this is my setup right now but she barely does damage to taihou
That’s….. probably as good as it can get
Unless you have a afct
actually maybe I swap to this
Why
nah wasn't playing at that time
Send rest of fleet
sec
What’s an afct?
Advanced fire control table
Aka rainbow fcr
maybe I can put a bit more AA on my mob fleet and sub out a few AA radar on boss fleet, but vangaurd survival isn't usually hard as long as decent rng
and can always manual
Oh this is mob?
that doesn't look like cheshire
@glass basin
I don't have concerns for it
Well for starters you don’t really need 3 AA radars, use some survivability
tbh vanguard has 0 survival issue for boss fleet
it's the backline getting obliterated by plane hell
And agir being heavy armor kinda meh in plane heavy content
that sandy is horrid too
Use sextuple for sandy
ok
hm anything else I need to fix
or do I need more wyverns and tenrais
sexy isn't even the problem
run another aa bote then
how about I run ply when she gets to +25
what's wrong with sandy
the main gun is garbage
Are there any planes i should make? Current cvs in use are rumie uni sara and avp with hvars on rumie
so how about the core data gun
make for what
for doing what ?
which gun is sap
twin 135
yeah don't have the event gun unfortunately
Bosses ig? More like a general use torp
wyverns
even T2 purple sap is better 
Is it?
than nepgun on sandy? yes
Against heavy armor
shooting taihou is irrelevant if you can't kill the aa boats so the carriers can do something
Well the command ship is also heavy armor
that's the main's job
honestly I might try again when I get second wyvern on boss fleet, and load up on flapjack and f4u
the van has one job. kill the aa boats so musashi doesn't have to
and maybe get rid of agir for plymouth or something
how many global server players are there in azur lane
right I should also swap sword for crossbow on musashi
probably irrelevant
That's the least of your concerns, give me one sec
musashi probably needs to kill the repair ship also in your setup
thanks fam
that's a lot of overload on musashi
maybe my frontline is short on dps?
should I put in that free UR DD from recent event
forgot her number
z something
z52 will help a lot yes
cheshire is better than helena. z52 also better than helena
btw did you tightly sync that?

z52 uses the blue main gun and 110mm right
yeah Airstrike reload was about 21s
113
^
yeah 113 not 110 mb
you said you were using cheshire so imagine the surprise at a synced helena setup
But how are you able to sortie with that
With helena (non retro) are you meant to try to get your air strikes as close to 20s as possible or is there some leeway
Depends on how long you wanna sync for
mob fleet is like no issue with double heal, beat every mob after empty ammo
boss flet I get destroyed by planes
your strike time + 1.5s for first strike, then add cv strike time for subsequent strikes
No I mean the fleet you showed can't work because of the hull type requirements in w13h
cb, cl, cl is not a valid 13 fleet for mob or boss...
maybe the sandy was cheshire I couldn't remember exactly what I used for frontline
but backline is exactly the same
I wouldn't be surprised if I used 1 or even 2 converging torps to guarantee command/repair ship kills. 13 doesn't have planes. command ships have planes...dying on 13 is almost always because you either didn't kill the aa boats, or stalled against nagato and got burned to a crisp, or stalled against the command ship and got overrun. taihou herself is relatively tame.
and yes in retrospect that amagii loadout is also kind of cursed
yeah there's a reason why I settled on this for my 13-4H fleet
in what way
using a Tenrai on her
amagii really does not like dive bombers
she supercharges her torpedo bombers
a TB will pretty much always be the superior choice
isn't tenrai insane vs heavy
i am just noticing nakhi has 3x140% on all slots
is this part of why shes so good
all 9 plane carriers are good yes
yeah but thats like ridiculously high efficiencies
It's good eff not super high
remember Amagi boosts her TB damage by 15%
hmm I see
alright I will give your suggested lineout a try
also what is bubbly boi
tenrai doesn't kill command ships when other ships exist. hitting taihou while repair ship is alive is also laughable.
also should I give shinano staff instead of bow
or is bow op
nothing is op
it's a minor improvement
cause I was like if shinano flies first she usually uses staff? I'm not sure tho
may as well stick to Scepter 
those are the ones behind her right with word command on it
the command ship is on bottom not behind?
repair ship is behind and above
yeah the 2 ships next to taihou
so basically
unless I kill those 2 ships with mamagi
taihou won't take much damage
maybe I also need more rainbow guns in front line or they won't do damage
for no helena procs thats some damage
2nd and 3rd strikes whiffed like half of the torps

0 timestop moment
3bb
ya that'd probably net the same results
all torps hit and with helena proc its like 33 bars 
BB fleet you should be able to stack Ply, Helena, and 52 
wait wrong
in bb fleet w/o helena
whats the comp look like
1 proc, some whiffs first strike
this is the fleet
man it really is Implacable waiting room 
do u have avp
I acknowledge that comp, but it has too much high highs, and low lows, and those lows really freakin hurt
use her then?
sigma comp
maybe unzen or something instead of harbin I guess
Unzen, or 52
man I want unzen
my bb fleet is so bad from lack of unzen, vanguard, alsacks and biszwei...and ofc dev20 ply doesn't help
hey taz, in maihou, my unzen did almost as much as soyuz, is it normal
das...goofy
i agree
with avp should i take out eld for someone else
yea
triple scepter?
wouldn't need Eld since August is consistency
even ply is better there
again Scepter is generally fine, and you'll barely notice Bow
tfw minmax 
is that 4 shot CV?
my options are: ply, sirius, sandy
sirius
no, 3 strike only
just another question
how good is modogar in bb fleet
typical damage dd
Beacon? how slow is that
Hey folks, could someone recommend a ship to start developing next? I have developed Izumo, Roon, Saint Louis, Seattle, Friedrich der grobe, Chesire, Anchorage, Hakuryuu, Agir, Plymouth, Shimantoi and Admiral Nakhimov
using avp
when was unzen last seen
during her event 🧠
2 scan but helena exploded
work on Fred, then PR4 
...yeah like when lol
2023 after summer
amagi stronk
fk ight have to wait a while
So craft the last two ships in PR4?
anyways is vanguard still worth picking up when she comes around soon?
wdym?
with all the busted bbs going around like biswei alsacks and whatnot
and soyuz
yea
cuz she has tech
lmao TRUE
I still use Vanny 
where is your ark royal
I was gonna pick her up but some people say with how busted alsakcs and soyuz are you might as well run another dps than a buffer
unacquired
nah Shinano
the going fast is to fit 3rd scan
tb way better
shouldnt need beacon to sync with helena though
you forget i have shit tech lol
low tech is always a pain 
Unzen was Sept 2023
Hello is there any guild that open for low lv casual player?
most people dont care about how strong enough, just be active
is gold type 0 mod 52 a scrap
yes type 0 is crap
is this the best w15 support setup
yea prolly
If you are lazy then flapjack 
recent calcs i saw say full hellcat is best but im still unsure about that
afaik that's just very min/max
sounds like some extremely wacky CN shenanagins
like you get better results out of Messer, and Hellcats
dfg did a run down you can probably look up, but fwiw just sticking to the usual is fine enough
suchicalcs, i might also be reading it wrong tho
putting this graph like we understand it
+13 hellcat looks good, it's like a loan with interest of electronics
man that graph is so...confusing
then again it's suchi, and good luck getting an explanation out of him
tbf i dont either but i read it as hellcat with wyverns is best
it looks like a 🚗 engine
crankshift lookin ass graph
is saint louis fs5 worth? It increase the eva buff for 10s
if you plan to use her, yes
great, ty!
question, how did they do 15k EX?
they dont, i made it up
oh lol I thought it's possible with ranger and helena or smth
impossible without cheating, use the formula to calculate all possibilities

do skill level increase ship power
good question
using a lvl 1 gearless helena + a fully geared +13 planes, oathed 100, ranger at 125 , double +10 cata, maxed sceptre, and 1 second of battletime, you can achieve 10484 score
no
total(ish) stats and gear lvl + rarity
what are b and w?
breguet and wyvern i think
or barracuda? this is support?
is augmented montpelier good enough for 13-4 hard mob
if I have no shimanto
No
Whats the roongun again? (And do you put it on roon)
Breguet and wyvern in main fleet
Whats the most efficient way to get purple and gold retrofit bps
you can try, she's decent but enough or not gonna depend on the rest of your fleet
grind hard mode daily
Am just guessing here, but box and whiskers show data average and spread. Ideally you want the average to be as high as possible (ie less plane leaking, represented by higher position of green dots) and basically narrow/zero width box.
You can see that on the left of Hellcat + Breguet (hell_b), we have quite a wide box, meaning Musashi's projected HP will varied quite widely (ie more RNG). OTOH, if you take Skyrocket + Wyvern (sky_w) the box is very narrow, meaning that we have less variance. Also, sky_w has longer top whiskers, meaning that even under RNG, there is a tendency for Musashi's HP to be higher than average.
iirc 3rd best gold AP CA Gun
It's called Roon Gun because it's what she's using in World of Warships
what is that reason-
If it were me, everything on the right of sky_w are good enough.
CN with Wyvern and Breguet have very wide variance, meaning you are really on the mercy of RNG.
Hellcat + Wyvern is also a good and cheap-ish combination if you don't want to craft that many Flapjacks. Looks like it has even less RNG vs Skyrockets + FW190, Flapjack + FW190, and Pure Skyrockets.
Also, Hellcat + Breguet seems to be good/cheap enough. Granted, you're really on the mercy of RNG but you can save the Wyverns.
Misread the chart.
It's this
w being wyvern doesn't matter, and b being breguet doesn't matter. They might as well be labeled as "surface fleet A" and "surface fleet B"
it's the standard issue gun for Roon
@sharp socket they're not calcs
I ended up putting the blucher event gun on her
well that's better, so doesn't much matter 

Whats the best level to grind xp?
12-1 is the go to for most because efficiency, cogs, and flexibility
Oki ty
Just rewatched your video again, so Hellcat, Flapjack, and Me are good options for support then? Me has a relatively low RNG for both Breguet and Wyvern?
Also FWIW running Skyrockets/FW190 will not hurt you badly anyway. It's more that CN claims is the most RNG compared to the others?
What CN claims is the best was among the worst
Right.
chat this gear good?
That's the plygun
Aka the best CL gun in the game
Ply seems easy to build gear wise rite?
outside of the UR Gun, ya 
standard cl build
As with almost all CLs, ye
I mean the other ones wants the dd gun too
will agir and plymouth ever get fate sim?
Toolbox or bulge. Exercise or Goldburn. crystal ice bomb or high heels. 
eventually, whenever the devs feel like it
what caused that difference
Chat are the gears good
AA gun could be better, but ya looks fine enough 
Where iris gear
Yeah, I think you cooking.
I can't afford the rainbow aa gun so uhh that gonna be for later
Use iris aux or sth
There is?
the French Gun req is for Gun Crit, and AA btw 
so you could ignore the French Gun bit
I'm sure there is
Tho frankly here I rather you'd give the 100 Kai to a DD or CL with DD main gun
And give her the single 138 if you have it
138 is on sandy though
100 Kai is extremely low priority for a CB secondary
give her ur AA 
just not use iris gear
exactly
Genius
why the boily though
Just don't use iris gear and give the 100 Kai to someone that wants it more (because someone absolutely wants it more)
It's cookin
I ignore the French Gun requirement because it's insignificant 
Uhh like who
...the DDGs?
San Diego among many others
dds
or literally anyone else who uses a dd gun
well Brest does have 110% efficinecy on that slot so there are far worse choices
to be fair I used moggun for brest
