at least it meets the gear req on brest
Imagine not using 57 on brest
you dont need to keep repeating "i need refund"
tbf its not like you need that extra hit or anyt, twin 57 is alrdy sufficient for w15
someone give me a tldr on the new equip
new best aa gun, new best asw plane, new best support fleet plane
best AA
best ASW plane?
best support fleet fighter?
Wait, are these things up yet, I can’t find them in the lab
Royal Navy gear lab, check Torp/Dive Bomber tab
Only those? What about tenrai?
Tenrai is in gear lab too and new UR AA

What the name of the fighter again?
Fw109 G-3/R1
Also what is a support fighter btw, the ones that use on chapter 15?
So you want 6 of those
Sure it is the best support fighter?
so what im hearing is more W15 powercreep
I’m so broke on circuits 
Anywhere I can cope-grind them on OpSi outside shop?
no, grind more
Wait fuck , the new aa gun is op right? I may have crafted 3 without asking
Oh nvm, it was because I didn’t update my game
just saying, Pancake have 4x 20mm auto cannon, F6F have 4x 12.7mm machine gun and 2x 20mm auto cannon, the new fighter have 6x 20mm auto cannon 
The new lab is updated now
doesn't the game still kick you out and say your game is outdated?
yes
hacker
Or it would just freeze if it doesn’t kick you out
190 
Is VV better than Hood?
it’s rainbow how can it not be op
Z-flag
50/50 chance
Something something Musashi gun.
Musashi gun is good
Who's better for healing, Uni retro or Perseus?
No, I legitimately didn’t have the new lab for an hour
Until I quitted a bit to play aether gazer and reopened
It was for another person, don't even have Perseus
The 109 exist in boxes?
uni wins out in longer fights but fights where they're tied or Percy wins (very short fights) the difference doesn't matter functionally as the fight isn't that difficult, so people say uni is better
Also I just copped two of that dd because fuck it why not, my dds guns are piss poor lol
Why are the top dd guns in this game so hard to get
dds can be the cheapest to equip if they're barrage focused
There are like 5 barrages in this game
On top of that folks like harbin wants those dd guns too
a lot of the best dds are barrage focused. Z52, shima, kawa, kita
Yeah, those and scylla are 5 lol
Eldridge not even need a gun tbh
if you only care about t0+ ships with non zero damage there's like 8 dd gun focused ships
I’m still using harbin gun on her lol
Research dropping harbin gun prints like crazy
PR5 ot gearlab next year so you can craft ton of them if you want 
Wait, tenrai is technically haku’s planes rite?
Opened somewhere around 100 boxes
No purple 109
is tenrai better than TB for flex slot
for what?
wait so DE and NP gearlab unlock next year too!?
Yes
for what ship and what context?
I swear that this plane can be get from boxes why I getting none
go to #al-general to complain about RNG
Sure
Btw, dumb question but if I specifically want to build Ply, but doing research a lot of the time it have brest researches along with the 1.5h projects, should I just choose brest instead of the 1.5h ones?
Say the brest projects are either the medium or the small ones
Just take what you can get tbh
Scylla is cheapest royal maid. All blue
coin the PR5s to FS5 as well to get their face projects out of the research pool
Which is better for BB, +5% fp or +15 hit?
how do you get Trento Meta? It's not listed on the wikipage
APRIL
I get that but my priority is ply, but brest researches are supposedly great projects too
cruise pass
You'll have to wait for her to hit the META Shop now tho
oh ok thanks
new UR AA seems like an upgraded Sextuple jamed together with a STAAG 
META shop in April
Considering I have all URs except Bis2 and Implacable, what are the possible changes? For w15
só, wut about new gears, bad ?
/w15
This is a guide for world 15
https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/chapter-15
depends on enemy, but safe pick is hit imho

all are new bis for their role
new aa is overall best aa, new asw plane is overall best asw plane and new fighter is best for support fleet
I think it's a bit early to call the support fighter
it has no bombs or rockets
and superior intercept to pancake
it's 50 48 speed
wasnt it 48? regardless stat diff is big enough
48 but yes
Where is the asw planet
royal torp bombers
just 15 HIT stats ... this is ... sad
no hope for AA gun with 25 FP stats ...

I'm fairly sure it's about as good on paper than the old fuck wolf
hit stat is better then fire power like 80% of the time
its still an upgrade to staag for backline ig 
i alrdy have 2 twin 57 at +13/close to +13 so im not going to make any
Especially for your outdated ironblood ships
my CAs still wanna more FP than hit
new ship is gud?
Hindy doesn't need aa guns 
Theres no new ships , its new gear , and yes they are good
New ship???
new ship where
it's an upgrade to the 57 as well
it would be bis without the hit on most vanguards already
for aa
oh new gear
iirc i still have like 14 others CA Oaths that cant equip 2nd CA Gun
CA dps though
6 20mm on one fighter
guam tanking
boot out chesire
use another tank for the boss
use a better BB instead of nj and if u want to do mob boss mob percy will have a massive value instead of haku
is the only way to get the twin gold 76 trough gear lab?
Uhh yes
-45 electronics for that :)
81*
plus the 36 for the Ur yea
time to burn my stock and do for my BB Oathes and CV/CVLs Oaths that can equip AA
so, no core shop 
they just wanted to make the cost the same as 57mm
i think
aside, Tenrais for all my Obligational DB Slots CV/CVLs
not like anyone's going to make a 57 ever again
bruh
, that one costs only 60 electronics tho
if you craft it from the gold AA
yes, but the gold aa is quite easy to get via protocore, i especially have 4 craftable from pr 2 i think
yeah as a total craft
i used 81 for it
If you actually play opsi sufficiently you have more then enough electronics 
It depends on how long you've stopped crafting t2 ord gear ig
leveling up skills, should i do z52 or eldridge first?
why not both? you have 2 academy slots
lvel both?
i have 4 but 3 of them are being used for other ships right now
how do you have 4 academy slots but have a backlog on rainbow ship skills
are you in a hurry to use them?
yes>stop leveling 1 of the 3 ship later on
no>just level them casually
I mean the question is something that only you can answer. Nobody here knows if your fleets will use z52 or eld within the next 2 weeks
i’ve been doing a lot of gold ships cause some of them i need for chapter 14 specifically
not in a hurry but if theres one that would be good to replace out with what im using, i’d rather do her first
z52 and eld are probably in the top 5 vanguard ships for w14
just raise them casually, w14 isn't gonna run away
Why wouldn’t anyone use z52 though
would it be worth swapping out any of them two for these ones on my current fleets?
yes kitakaze sucks
Kita and yuudachi
And azuma
man what is that boss vanguard
Way too many tanks
compared to eldridge and z52 
you could technically cut kron and tank with poikai apparently for w14
14-3 and 14-4, yeah
Yeah mori got me to stack 3 tanks together for w14 and they worked great

i got help with them from this server a while back but then i took a break and then got elridge and z52 (and some more too but those are the main ones)
Eldridge is kinda overrated if your fleet doesn't have survivability issues
If im missing Kersaint, can i still get the limited portrait?
yes
U only need the banner ships for portraits, the missions are for pity in case u miss
only have survivability issues when i’m doing auto
what's the build for Subs if you have 40 RLD from cats?
no, but only because they aren’t surviving
Just manually select fleets till they are on safe 
They shouldnt have problems on clear but eldr will fix that anyway
With those ships it's more likely sub optimal gear? Eldridge can't fix that
yeahh it probably would be that since i’m lacking a lot of gear lab stuff
and i missed some event gears too
Those fleets can do it without but it helps
I've retrofitted portland, who do I do next? Laffey, unicorn or helena?
Unicorn should have been first
Hi is it normal that my bismark 2 is doing more damage than my musashi against the guild raid boss?
People here told me to do portland first since unicorn would have been costly. So I'll do her now then?
What boss are you even fighting
Yea do unicorn
Cause if it's the correct guild boss Musashi shouldn't be losing
i don’t think unicorn retrofit is costly
Alright thanks
Well right now none but in general musashi seems to do less than Bismarck in the same amount of shots
isn't all the Siren guild boss have heavy armor?
That’s what I thought too
I'm not sure, some people here told me so, earlier
mk7 with bow 
who
She needs gold bps which is pretty costly for a total newbie
Then again, it's guaranteed on what 3-4H above? As 3 star reward
the first 1 is light, second med the other 2 heavy
Time for witchhunt
What?
holy crap the new UR aa gun has hit
stat

Unicorn should always be priority imo
Mk7 - used for light
Bow - nerfs light
She's a free healer, and probably/arguably the best at it
Nothing to argue
Oh right xD though i though the buff from the other one not stack
There's no argument there, unless a new healer popped up recently
it honestly surprising how your taste is almost always the same as mine
i would take my Klaudia over both
Last question for me today is the best BB lineup still musashi Bismarck and vanguard (royal navy UR BB no sure of the name)?
Wait, wasn't active for a while, last new UR was the IB one right?
Fritz Rumey and Z52
Ones
IB?
the IB two
Iron blood
yes, blood does contain iron
And the next one should be right around the corner?
yes
1 week
there's a live stream on the 23rd
cheeky name
u know the name "Iron Blood" came from Otto Von Bismarck speach into Prussian expansion and unification of Germany, right?
Anyone has idea for the rerun of iris UR BB ? Or is she from vichia dominion….
Wat, oh horse gurl
Alsus is not in the near future
Around the second quarter of 2026 I guess.
would this team work fine for 14-4?
also turns out i was wrong before because i ended up clearing it fine with the auto-battles just now
Oh k damm I’m gonna need to be patient
Wait uh cheeky senpai, you still got that major events flowchart(?) or something?
that’s blasters
Very cheeky of him
What's AA gold plate enhance priority
discord has a search function or so im told
Just quickly before I go could someone please help ?
Smh
Wht about all-in on rainbow staag
Bismarck Soyuz/Vanguard Alsace works for every armor type
Nvm found it mb
Oh ok … got unlucky these two (Soyuz and Alsace) I didn’t get
Yea but I was not sure whose chart it was 
Well have a good day
Idk about removing cheap golds to fill the vanguard, but twin 57 defiNitely certainly absolutely should be very low
I have too many
Isn't bf109g super cheap
kinda, the Ordinance reports do add up though
Except t2 ords
I shouldn't have maxed 3 of them 
Isn't twin 90 super expensive
Def looks expensive
Twin90 aa?
Pr4 from gear lab
Bf109g - affordable but competes with 457, tenrai
Saiun - ultra expensive, low priority, use protocore instead
Twin 90 - super expensive, not recommended
Aegir gun- super expensive
🤡 gun - does anyone care? edit: ultra expensive
So maybe pr4 should be gear focused by new players for one of each gold gear. Get an Aegir gun, use gear lab for more bfg, and use protocore for more saiuns
What was the avg time spent for 1 gold gear ?
So mby 3-4 then
FwG is so cheap though gonna recommend 6 in /w15
T1 ords and no elec for a SR plane 
W15 welfare
and only 2 SR plan like how can it be that cheap
You could get gold plates back from ryuusei if you enhanced too many 
Soo.. this the current UR gear I have, and my available UR gear resources. Any suggestions for what to craft now that the gear lab was updated?
So I blow 9×6 T1 ord report on the purple planes
Which leave me with no t1 ord left to actually craft the gold plane
Which is 4×6 t1 ord for 6 plane
ok
#gameplay-help message
Asks loaded question and decides to misinterpret answers
So this gun existed only for US BB because they can't equip CL guns?
pretty much yes
Pretty much
They put it in DD gun tab make me think I can put it on DDs, until I scroll down
That's really cheap for a top-tier interceptor.
You wouldn't want to put it on a DD anyway; they usually want high firing rate guns
Yea
it's not even known to be be better than purple fw
Its an extremely minor thing but I like the gold 137 more than a random UR dd gun (if you can afford that) on the EU BBS since the range and shell velocity is better
What about the fact that the UR gun is a UR which is more expensive and currently only 1 IJN UR dd gun existed in the gear lab
Hello, new to the game here. I am trying to 3 star hard mode maps but escort fleet aren't spawning for me, only the boss is. How do I get the escort fleets to spawn?
disable clearing mode
I have it off, still only the boss spawns.
It's not off so try showing the screen with it off
the twin 100mm only have 20 FP compare to 35 FP of the twin 137mm, the only option that have higher FP than 35 of gold DD gun is Mogador gun which we only have 1 in the entire game
What’s the name of the new support fighter in gear lab?
twin 137 is close to ply gun in terms of bb defence iirc for reference, twin 100 is kinda eh imho since first of all its kinda wasted on a backline and like bread said twin 137 is just better than twin 100 anyway for bb
its german fw 190 smth idr the full name
How do you replay the entrance animation for live2d skins?
New ASW TB beats Guam event plane right
Where in the archive section?
On the ship's stat page
yeah since it drop 2 depth charge
flapjack level?
who get to use the shiny new AA gun? 😄
me
how many gems can a f2p player get?
So Soyuz barrage, the iceberg is guaranteed to hit right? It can't miss?
cheaper
Iceberg is like 5 invis bombs , you will hit 2-4 usually
All it do is AA, no bombs, no rocket
Do we have a new bis support fleet fighter
Supposedly
The new aa gun is a buff for Fritz 
Damn I thought we got a new Divine Marksman+
Those two are nothing alike???
Well I assumed that the iceberg can't be miss
Divine marksmen is weak as fuck barrage fired from backline , and it can definitely miss
Do /gems in bot spam
I don't know what Soyuz barrage can do but I like it because occasionally the enemy will just be dead before she even fire her gun
(almost) everything can fail the eva check
soyuz iceberg does dmg as soon as she starts to shoot
and it basically cant miss, unlike divene marksman that misses all the time
It start when she finished loading
Pretty sure for Soyuz barrage , the overlapping portion of it is quite small, so she can still miss
Congrats. I want her


I think you posted it in wrong channel and forgot about it
He was replying to someone's question with that
wasnt goose showing the l2d archive

Oh it's 7 bombs not 5
What's that for?
Soyuz barrage hit box probably
I asked before, and I genuinely forgot the answer I was given. I'm approaching the UR exchange number. Should I grab UvH or Shima?
I have all the other URs from that list
Usability though?
both dont fit into current meta
Shimakaze can be used in some EXs, but jintsuu meta is better, so Shimakaze will only be used together with jintsuu meta when you need more damage than jintsuu meta provides alone
if youre funny you can use uvh for 5 second rld memes
Ulrich can be used against Newcastle CM, but there are other ways to win
I guess impecable rerun is this year then?
most likely
I’m checking old events right now, she is def next lol since they rerun every 2022 events already
Yop
Only question is when but it's pro gonna be relatively soon
Would be hilarious if it's right after this new UR ends
Which did happen with BisZwei and NJ
Impla, bis, guam and unzen back to back
Implacc rerun expected after Pizza UR
No
There's a few SR events in between them
unzen is BEFORE guam too
ya, but then look how backed up Op Convergence was
Did the datamine specified the new itali girl?
no
How can we datamine someone released NEXT WEEK?
the ship usually used in the CTA banner is attainable
As drop ship/shop ship/0.5... but she's SSR
an Italian ship no less
I mean, for an ITA event? They used Hipper last time... for a German event
glad you arrived at the station 
anyway, I believe there was some list that was datamined with a bunch of ship names 
So why is azuma considered bad btw
shes not
Worst non-collab CB, that's all
she's just old, and that's kind of it, her kit didn't age well
opportunity cost if anything
She also directly competes with Agir in coining priority now
Anchor also exists
Heh, they use Yorktown II event as placholders for this event, damn... 
And Guam, Kronk, Breast
But like, with agir and acho, it’s 3 relatively easy to build tanks already
Placeholders for what? Stage names or something?
The 2800 event points, they use Yorktown II event ships
Also scylla is mainly for mob rite
After getting 2 wyvern what should i use my UR blueprints on? 406mm gun?
2 wyverns is fine enough, however you're gonna have to specify when you use, "406" cause there's a lot of those
there is only one that is ur tho
Unsure due to the phrasing of the question 
i thought the french 406 was better
make a meta boss change between light and heavy armor during the battle
the dream of getting al timings right

What about next CM? Any suggestions
Comprehensive strategies and example fleets for how to beat Newcastle, the February Incarnation of Aquarius extreme challenge mode boss.
next CM is a pinata
hungry
So I guess staag is getting phased out now that the new cat aa gun is a thing then
the new aa is expensive
and like 5 more hit
5 more HIT is indeed more pog but STAAG still cheaper
I sure wouldn't recommend +13ing staag
I wouldn't either
-# Rare suchi agree with mebot
Well I mean what else do you use the gold AA prints then
Ik what i am asking for is absurd but is there like a Dorm theme list for like really exclusive ones and best looking ones lol
subjective lists dont exist
Fair point ig
Subjective list exists if you make it yourself
All lists are subjective
but none of them are "exclusive"
best looking is up to you I'm keeping my 765pro office
well in terms of how you like it lists
Shouldnt have asked
gimme a month
If you really want to just list the limited ones, no need for ''Top 50 best DORM THEMES''
or some shit like that
you can run out if you do something like this
(yes there's a 4th row)
lol
Is that a threat 
CN/JP recovers by throwing $1000 at it
I didn't get the memo you can buy plates
You can buy oil > AP
not going to bother
the latter
probably black friday, JP didn't have it
BF offered for coins even I think
I'm just waiting to see if we get some for spring sale
thanks pookie
JP gets BF with christmas
Is saratoga retrofit good lol
I'm pretty sure we didn't get the item sales
the skins maybe can't remember
but off the top of my head we didn't have much special going on for Christmas
we had gacha pon
which JP did not get either
I meant the UR 406mm
Mk7 is just a shiny Mk6 if you don't have 360 gold plates lying around
My mk6 are all at +10 so I was wondering if I should craft mk7
I have 21 ur blueprints. Don't really know what to do with them after wwyverns
save for urudder
Mk7 is only very marginally better than Mk6 before you enhance past +11
are those 21 rainbow print selectors or 21 gun prints
How is the new US 76 AA gun?
if they're selectors I'd lean towards making AA to be more impactful for ch15, or probably even the DD gun depending on the DD you're using
It has slightly less DPS than the existing UR AA gun, though.

~95% AA DPS, despite having more Alpha.
the thing about Mk7 is outside of gearing BBs for light bosses, you barely ever touch it if you know what you're doing with BB guns in lategame
Doubt they EVER come to gear lab, no aux gear so far
But it gets a range of 32
we can make that speculation after they add a UR rudder at all
technically asw planes are aux but i digress
Never doubt only hope
URudder coming May 2025
the monkey paw curls, it has same EVA stats and some other random shit
they only added aux in the core shop so i really doubt it will be in the lab

thats why i said i digress
there a guide to shipyards?
what u need help with
#al-general is that way mebot
who to build next
who have you built
let the man dream 
havent startd on any of the pr5+
Can I get a source for that
is that just plain old RLD fallacy
i think plymouth can be a good start
else you can go straight to pr7
Yeah, accounting for the rld time per aa gun
who i start on 7?
anyway I don't have enough AA plates now so I'm probably not crafting the new AA gun for a while
anyone
just pick a season 4-7 and wrap up the whole series
you'll probably have enough pasta points after the coming event
so 200 techs?
like just pick any ship you can work on and work on it first
next event is pasta UR so chances are they'll help top you up a fair lot
breast?
any
it's not like the ship you pick really matters unless you have prints waiting
incomplete research ships will just be benchwarmers for most part
Done FdG and PR4 besides Marco?
yep
Then just choose a random coinable ship to throw free bps at if you need one. PR5 options are nice to pull them out of the pool to make getting Ply researches easier. Or you can go back to PR1-3, especially if you haven’t finished their catchup yet to do the protocore trick.
👍
PR4 is still good to do especially ifyou haven't finished agir and hakuryuu
but otherwise just pick something from 4 or newer that you can work on
w13 ijn fleet
I honestly barely use hakuryuu nowadays now that amagi is a thing lol
not everyone has Amagi
All 21 are selectors
I don't have Jintsuu META anyway
I'm still farming ch 12 for opsi team. Don't think I'll hit ch 15 anytime soon though. Is AA still recommended?
you can get away with roombas + 90mms
If I'm using a ship like Nakh as W15 support, what do I place in the TB slot, or does it not even matter if it's empty?
a extra wyvern for stat padding
if not, any plane
So do I craft mk7 first till I get to chpt 15 then craft UR AA?
do you need it rn?
Not really
When you auto campaign, does it auto change to your second fleet once your ammo runs out?
Any rainbow > gold plane, but prioritize rainbows for the two surface fleets
I just dk if it's a waste to hoard the 21 selectors
You can set the Roles, which can only swap for boss, not for out of ammo mob
How do i set the roles again
you click role
First time im doing double fleet so idk lol
on the right
Oh
i mean, you could just hold onto it
your selectors and the gear arent going anywhere
Also holy this Fu shun retrofit is amazing
Just wish my gears werent this absolutely shocking
I have the missile for fu shun but rest sucks lol
just run a decent dd gun and sot4g
Wait so you do Flagship for the boss fleet and Escort for the mob fleet?

so any of the new gear other than the rainbow aa and plane important?
The rainbow and gold gears have things they specialize at. Most people don't need them until later in the game
they're basically world 15 power creep 
wow the aa gun is like 80 electronics
81
the stupid pre requisite needs so much lol
at least, the tenrai is only 60; i think the gold pre print was from pr4 tho?
i mean its 80 as well with needing suisei model
just have the suisei beforehand 
i have suisei but no suisei 12a
is the gannet better than the tbm avenger?
i need someone to look over my gear i guess
Fairey has 4sec per wave,is that correct?
make a thread and post all ur gear there 
assuming you mean gannet its about 3s/launch at +10, but it needs a valid target to launch
btw what is the average aquisition rate of secret UR prints(T3 ordinances) per month usually?
i feel like 5-7?
Oh, conditional plane
Ur print: 4 (+random from red zones) T3 ordinance: 1
what gear to lvl up and create.
- how many tenrais do i want (i have 2)
- should i prioritize the other ur AA gun over the new EU AA gun?
- what new gear is worth making?
2, mayb not, w/e u need
- 2
- No
- Twin 76 for everything or up to 6 fwg for chapter 15 support
bro also said yes 
I was looking for a good sakura empire AA gun
wow, new planes are that good?
They obviously meant Sardegna Empire smh.
i meant iris orthodoxy. for some reason my brain turns that AA gun into sakura empire
They're just anti-air, so they're pretty whatever outside of the w15 support fleet. But makes them really good for said support fleet, plus they're dirt cheap too.
maybe i should finally try to progress past ch 12.... im sure i have more than good enough roster and equips for that
w13 fleet help
Does this mean 291 left to get it 291 already gotten
Gotten
1 T3 ordnance from shop
6 T2 ordnances from shop but I usually get around 15-25 T2 ordnances total from shop + farming OPS so it’s 2 or 3 more if you compose them (8 T2= 1 T3)
So it’s like 3 or 4 T3 ordnances monthly.
you must’ve used catchup on someone else
w8 what
its not per ship?
not for the golds, they have 300 shared per season
yes
Yes, not having those PR5/7 prints for PR5/7 ships. Can't coin PR7, can coin her.
Why would you use prints on a ship that can be coined
just use unzen
thanks

Jinstuu meta also works
i need both jintM and her
ima coin her up then
How much gold plate do we even get? Feels like less than 50 per month for specific?
Mainly need plane and guns
How is atago now with her augment?
shes better, but still meh
Has there ever been an agument that made a ship meta again? San Diego feels more because of world 15
ibukis aug made her preload almost as gud as shima
We haven't gotten a bad PR augment
Better 
Oh true
agree with not bad augments, but not enough to make something worth it aswell, aside Ibuki ...
Roon got really good beats Drake more often then not , Saint and Izumo are back on top
"top"
top for me are UR ...
and all them are far from being competitive with them
aside Ibuki in a niche with her TRPs
they are out of a huge limbo, back to usable, but not needed or in a niche, far from being recommended and decent to use in progress since slow development/time for a begginer, and far from being usefull for a end game player
for who like his waifus, ok, its a upgrade and its viable if u wanna, but not recommended
If top is UR then you can remove ships like fdg and ulrich considering they lose to a SR in campaign
whats the point of reccomending gold fw when it's not even known if it's better than purple atm
Best augment was Eugen augment 20 EVA 
FdG still top for W14 and viable for anything b4 it ... just not ideal for W15
what SR beats fdg and ulrich in campaign ?
NorCar. :mutsuki:
UvH, i have to agree with it, in campaign she are quite bad in general

dont give much attention to Gray, he its a complete hate of KMS ships, spcially when i'm around
wait fdg loses to gold bbs now in campaign? 
better
equal
cuz in my meths 15+5 its 20
I called Roon top , you are the one that disagreed 
Holy you're right - it also gives HPBARRIER
outmebotted
neptune more ehp than eugen 
cuz she is not top ...
Roon still in limbo when its about CAs, and even worse when u look to competition ...
tbh i think roon is pretty darn good for what she is
idk about top but shes at least arguable in the realm of gold accessible ships
a begginer can have a use for Roon, but the time and cost he will have to rise, dev and gear her, others CAs it will have a better use than Roon
for end game ... Roon dosnt even exist
roon provides kms tech so its not exactly bad to invest in her per se
in mid game once u reach in farm lands ... but just for KMS tech, nothing more
For CA damage Roon only really loses to ships like hinden and unzen now
in mid game she is a strong ship she only falls off in end game as you said
(if thats even accurate, idk anymore)
by such large margin that makes her dosnt even exist
and u are forgetting Ibuki
roon provides both strong ship and tech making her a solid investment to me
also, iirc, Michita and a French one ...

so just by that already 5 gold CAs better than roon
and the top 3 makes her looks like useless
unzen is event locked, hinden takes much much longer than roon and requires focusing pr6 currently to some degree which is ill advised
for a newer player roon is a very good option as a result, is she not?
your counting is wrong also, mitchita, french, ibuki = 3 better than roon (allegedy), hinden and unzen aren't gold lmao
idk which french either besides saint louis on light
idk if u gona have space for her
she isnt gona make a change for W13, in W14 u can argue about her that, but Why? she isnt ASW capable, not tank enough to compete with Ancho, not flexible as others ships can be with buffs and others mechanics, and also why a CA in SSs map if she cant tank decent enough?
idr French ships, cuz ... they are french ... but is one that have a bug that match Hindy dmg time ago
i mean roon is just generally a good filler ship you can slot into most places
campaign also isnt the only content?
if u mean brennus then she was bugged 
i dont think you generally would use ibuki in campaign either so bringing that up feels a little moot. same goes for hinden, tho i think unzen is used maybe?
yeah, i mentioned that ... iirc she still does quite a dmg for CAs
i wouldnt arbitrarly restrict myself to CAs either 
and michita...absolutely does not vibe in campaign lmao
not that much
her swords are quite a big part of her dmg and they just go poof most of the time
also roon is perfectly capable of offtanking 
but why would u use CA off tank in campaign specially W14 and W15
but, in Op.Si is arguable a thing, but why not ibuki for fast clean ?
but if u talking gold ca then stuff like lala and fc exist and also chien recently
if you have sufficient bulk and asw or anything else you need then she's a good filler slot with solid bulk and high generalist damage like i said earlier.
also are you using ibuki, michita (lol), brennus, whoever else you listed in that slot anyway?
cant really argue roon being meh in campaign is a strong negative to her if the others you compare favorably against her also deal with that, no?
i wont use ibuki and michita as my tank over roon ( maybe )
and yeah lala exists unless you missed her event, in terms of permanent options roon is pretty good
i disagree (tentatively) with the whole 'top' thing but shes certainly no slouch
certainly average new event gold standard
i still feels like she is a limbo
can be used, but not recommended (for me)
and a CL or DD can do her job but better specially in campaign
and a permanent, reasonably easy to acquire ship that lives up to the standard of modern event ships can hardly be called bad 
also, 100% againts call her top
i dont think any1 called her bad tho
Roon is bad

right, got confused a bit. but imo she is a good option for mid game
i dont even like her
i just dont agree with her being top, and againts her being recommended or usable over other options in campaign or Op.Si
pls switch to 4o
i dont agree w her being top per se either 
i like her alot ...
but not enough to put my hands on fire for her, like i would do for FdG in anytime
what other options though, in terms of permanently available ships that fill her role and are similarly easy/difficult to obtain and build?
Roon is literally one of the first ships you get , she has UR output. 
(im sure theres some but im drawing a bit of a blank atm, brain slow)
-# Chinawall
yatsen comes from lny or random light pool iirc
Is monarch from PR1 even decent anymore
no. she may be if/when she gets her augment but not currently
i mean shes usable but theres a bunch of better options afaik
Idk i just had her for a while and i did her for the sake of it lol
maybe when she will get her aug 
How many days left to max out FdG man, im at 17/30 with her
tank ? Ancho, Port(cheaper and easier), distant option not much recommend as well Eugen
Offtank ... ok her cames alot of situations, like wut is ur main? wut is the objective Campaign? Op.Si farm ?
shes much more expensive than i thought
neptune is much less dmg
anchorage is big tank but much less dmg
agir is a contender sure but you need tech points for her, so you might as well do roon to assist in that anyway
coin more
, tho keep enough for your needs
portland dmg is lol
they all tank better
i wasnt considering the tank role though, much more the offtank ca dps role 
why locked into CA ?
like i said, roon falls in a role i consider 'filler with decent bulk and good dmg when u dont need smth more specific'
why would i not run helena/sandy/ibuki/sanrui or something else there then?
Hindenburg
Sirius as well
because theres not a whole lot of cl and dd with 100% ehp. i guess sandy and plymouth exist though
hinden is much slower to obtain which was a point i made earlier, a mid gamer is not realistically having a dev30 double gun hinden
Seems like a bit of a weird qualifier
You guys say Drake is the base line for dps carry and when roon + Saint has more then her , suddenly they are only good dps
theres like very little content where u need that amout of beefiness in offtank and sandwich
but also this discussion is derailing i feel like
all im saying is roon is good, not top but good and fills her role well for a perma ship thats easily obtained
havent rlly heard anything to convince me otherwise...
i never agree with Drake being gud... she dosnt even ever looks gud to me
i dont think any1 disagree
okay what is the argument then
im wondering the same

i do approve of suggesting
over
though from a waifu perspective
Roon vs Drake looks like
just me and gray once more, aguing with KMS ships, but strangely, this time is Gray upscalling a KMS ship and i'm downgradding
Gph civil war be like
dont forget gray calling fdg worse than gold bb in campaign, i still wanna hear more about that
are you saying roon has more dmg than drake ?
Still not sure what said SR is
what are the teams
sounds like easy test
at least insomuch as is that ch15 specific and which gold bb(s)?
new aa and new fighter are best aa gun and best support fighter respectively right
about this one, i know more than anyone here, i'm 1000% BIASed, but i dont even gona start that
Allegedly
When was Roon augment? I did a test that day
i personally found gold bbs so bad i used triple cv mob (which i could bc manual)
i really think fdg wouldve been better than any of my available bb choices
so i find it difficult to believe that, but maybe the highest end gold bbs? idk
Okay FdG may be a bit of a stretch but UVH isn't 
uvh i believe. it was fdg i questioned
How do you learn to build fleets yourself? Or is it just something you naturally learn overtime after years of playing?
as a FdG lover, it hurts say that FdG in W15 its quite a bad option ... but in UR class
once its about all BBs, i dont even have a doubt she does perform better than all Gold BBs
Hi, what’s the fleet power of a level 1 amagi cv compared to a lvl 125 version
Both ungeared
that would be my initial impression too yea
december 4
I haven't touched w15 yet, is there not a lot of heavy armored enemies? I ask because I use FDG with Georgia gun
with my personal trys, FdG biggest problems arent the enemies ships ,specifically the main prolem its her "HIT" % over smookes and her fragility once its about AA and Planes
ch15 has a mix of all iirc...command boat is heavy, hiyou/junyou is medium, aa boat is medium, repair ship is light...15-1 and 15-2 boss is heavy, 15-3 is medium, 15-4 is medium, light, medium+light right?
but georgia gun is good in general iirc
her AA drags down ur AA general, also, she is quite fragille once Planes goes over ur screen ... hurts her ALOT
I see
Lars spotted
technically its 571 if u dont enhance her at all
Hm 125 amagi cv and 125 vanny prob wont help with my ex scores
I need to wait for reruns and arch
Hi guys did you know that level 1 amagiCV doesn't buff jintsuu meta torpedos?
why would she buff jintsmeta
drake is 120, ill runit more tomorrow to check variance
I know that
Because jintm is meta faction
??
RoonGood
so amagi cv, w/ the sakura empire buffs, does buff her because jintsuu meta is in meta faction..?
Roon decent
a option for KMS Tech and CA FP, but that is it
not a thing for progression and Campaign/Op.Si since better options exist
BUT if u will, she can be used through anyplaces
tbh meta ships should belong to both the faction of the non-meta counterpart and meta imo
Yeah ik already, I did like a dozen runs with her when it first came out
Drake Aug when 
if only there was some kind of tool that let you mass run tests 😔
Why did you think I wasn't agreeing with Drake being the dps carry baselin
I mean theoretically can’t someone make a 1:1 Azuzu copy
iirc, Drake dosnt do much more than Roon B4 her Aug, and she dosnt tank much more than Roon B4 as well, she does marginally better than roon in everything, but with huge more investment to workout
Oh tos
that makes me see Drake a really bad investment since ever
After researching FdG, what should i research. I dont have enough tech points for any other faction other than Iron Blood
Does Agir have coin up?
quite strange ...
and yes, she does have a coinup
why is it?
if u already complete FdG that means u are playing for at least 70~ish days, how u did manage to dosnt have enough USS or HMS techs for Ply or Ancho
I dont know
You could work on Agir, but try to unlock a PR ship to coin up in parallel. Maybe work towards USS tech for ancho
What could that pr ship be
wut W u are ? u already can farm in W12 ?
or should i research pr1 ships
W11, but i probably can clear W12
honestly more that their code is a fuckin nightmare
imo advance to W12, and start to farm in 12-1, work towards Ancho and Ply MLBing HMS and USS ships, workout on AvP and coin FdG and AvP simultaneously and work on USS and HMS Tech
I'd recommend either ancho or one of the PR1 ships for PR coining to start (as they have great augments)
with implac on the horizon if you are confident you can roll her avp loses some value
this should be quite a time of work...
monarch becoming the worst PR ship from the best 
Cant research anchorage yet but ill mlb some stuff
what is a recommended vanguard comp for w14?
this why i did mention to work on AvP
depends on what you have
you can either send you fleet or just look online
dds are uniquely good for w14 mobbing
Is the new focke wulf the best support fighter or should i still mix the fighters with fast fighters for low rld CV?
i have LaffII, eld, anch, guam, ägir, plymouth, unzen, shima, jda, too many
paper calcs place the new focke wolf below purple fw but paper calcs for intercept are kinda bad,
you never mixed fighters with fast fighters for support
this is the part where you go post your dock in a thread or do /w15 in #bot-spam (You can reverse engineer those fleets for W14)
Laffey2 Sandy Eld
Anchor Unzen Guam
overkill 
Just wait for people to waste their oil on empirically testing the gold fw to see if they're actually better than flaps/purple fw
you wont see the difference 
idk why everyone says they're bis when on paper its worse than purple fw
High Alpha is nice , flap/purple fw have a habit of leaving really low health planes
How much should i coin up FdG every day?
10 BPs per day
this goes for both DR and PR Coining
Also should my research focus be FdG?
no
If you mean setting it to PR2 focus, Hell no
focus pr7 (some say pr5), id do the fdg catchup even though you lose protocore
Catchup*
sure if you want
alright
u mean get BPs ?
i'm more about use that after u finish her to get protocores and speed up ur Champys Guns, and Tenrai
It saves you ~15 days of coining although in the long run you could've used the catchup prints to convert to protocore. It's short term vs long term benefits
Also should I have used protocores on tenrai or champy gun
3 champy guns first
that sucks, im almost there to a tenrai
i mean if you're almost there
3 Champys > Tenrai >
Here u have 2 options
2-3 BFs
OR
457 > Ply gun
can i see these calcs? im curious
arent bfs cheap now
not for a begginer that have some things to do after start to flex materials to build BFs
from riceist
thx
Whats the entire name of the champy gun
Tri 406mm/50 MLE
apparently the intercept speed is 50 while the launch plane speed is 48
which is super weird
I got the xp for FdG by using Brünhilde instead of Musashi, my Fritz probably doesnt have enough xp until cap to grind the entirety
It was actually Brun who farmed all the XP for FDG , Musashi not counted since she is of different faction .
jesus you farmed 3.6 Mil XP with only a single ship?
Why are people like this man
i mean i've done that before
3
Why not use all 3 ?
l100-l125 is 4.2m
Needed unicorn
i don’t remember the last time i needed unicorn
Valid , but when IB ship is at high level , they can shrug off most damage to last to boss node .
And i only have 2 iron blood main fleet ships unironicly
You don't need full HP to complete a stage , it is only an insurance .
getting campaign to stages to safe gives artificial de-levels of the fleet and general damage reduction as well making uni bad to take when farming w11/12 in general
I've never really failed w12-1 farming with l95+ ships, although I have failed 12-4 when i tried 3 bb farming (b/c im bad)
Hmm alright
I don't remember the last time I didn't just use uni anyway
Who is the new UR AA BiS on? I see it has a hit stat, so BBs?
it's the best everywhere
So i gotta make a bunch of em? 🫠
Can you tho?
you can wait for proper testing but the stats are insane
I just got my 3rd old UR AA to +13
where aa matters i'd posit that you replace sexybofors w/ it first though, before putting it on backline
Better wait , some are not pleased with the slower reload and less AA bonus .
Yea that’s fine
It’s not a huge upgrade
I can prob make like 4, dont need other gear weps anyway.
i just craft 3 new UR AA today .. i did stop cuz lacking coins, and i need Tenrais for Waifus and New UR AA for Oaht BBs ... so quite a bunch of them
whats the new UR AA
its a option go to WA and Farm Schar and Gnei , hope for Tirp appear on Medal exchange
with this 3 u can do AvP and Agir easily
gearlab update, 76 Mk37 iirc
i did remeber correctly

whats the show in the bl
Top Gear
i hear the new UR is bis for Amagi-chan
yes
nice
now 3/5 BB gears are all URs, this is what I call progress
4/5, can’t forget gamer table
can be 4 if Light
can be 5 if bisz
oh yeah, Mk7 exists
mk7/twin 457, quad 152, 76mm, AFT
3/5?
76mm, Plymouth Gun, and Fire Control Table
shinning
hopping for 5/5
crossbow nj gun 
m7 with crossbow
isn’t that bowgun
i notice after SS ... my bad
i thought crossbow was a cl aug 
crossbow bowgun same thing
i think bowguns dont fire thru tension w/ a bowstring or smth but are also not really a real life thing
what's the Sub loadout with 40 RLD Cats 
can larscalc calc?
Rainbow shells when
Kinda late but how’s the new gear looking other than the better staag
the golds are good or so im told
as good as an ASW plane and fighter with no offensive capabilities can be
better staag kinda undersells 76, at least on paper
aa is fucked though maybe it's somehow worse
tenrai in lab as well
heavy, amagi cv, shinano
How do i cope with missing out on Musashi
Use another ur
Just use bis2 soyuz Alsace instead
As if i have any of them 😂
Wait for their service and reruns
Does anyone have a good anti-med loadout for soy/nakh/haku? tryna use 2 la-9 on the cvs and sync it to soy's slow, and I put the tenrais and wyverns to my anti-heavy fleet
What does happen to UR's who already got their reruns, do they eventually get into the perma pool?
Yes
you might just have to wait a while
Just mess around with timings
All the current perma pool URs were event only URs at first
Next is vanguard I think
After that musashi
dont think after is mushi
Which was the latest UR to the pool, Kronstadt?

oh it is mushi
Not Vanguard?
Well they are talking about the ship after vanguard. That is not gonna be vanguard 
nice im jsut 3 UR ships away from getting all of them
While i only got 5 UR's 💀
its fine we all gota start somewhere
Its a struggle but yea i am barely holding it up
I started with 0 URs
i started with 0 UR also
There was no UR when i started aswell but i took a big break 😅
by the time guam came in i was already ch9
I was there when Shinano and New jersey first came out
how do you start with a UR
is there the hidden option of laffey, jave, z23, & also shima somewhere
as in when u start playing theres a UR event
Get one from tutorial builds (I have no idea what pool those were from)
What about when you started and UR's didnt exist
i mean atp content wasnt built around rainbow
Shud I?
sure, although she isn't a premier option in campaign she's great elsewhere
why would you bother doing 2LB if you didn't want to MLB...
if im not wrong this guy keeps asking for help and advice yet never listen
My first UR is warspite
my first was fdg if that counts

that's common if you're from 2019, that or Azuma/Drake
no im from 2023
corgi retro was a thing then too 
i didnt retro her till after i got guam
If it makes you feel better
I got shinano months after UR pity got added

I got Shinano when she came out but ofc she was useless, good luck MLB back then 💀
was it even harder to mlb UR before?
Shinano was the first UR
no weird demonic voices telling you to not MLB a UR
Guys please help!
Just ask man
I think I lost all progress!!! I can’t access on my iPad for some reason

did you use a new device?
do u at least have ur UID or sth
I bound it to a Twitter account. But accidentally clicked on a wrong server. Originally server was Washington
Then log out and then log into old server
- did you link your account
- did you happen to switch servers
- if you've spent money on the game send a support ticket they can recover the account off of that
Make sure you in the right server, once i thought mine was wiped but turns out the server was changed so i changed it back to Amagi
- I did to Twitter then a YoStar. 2. On accident. 3. yes, I have in the past
so nothing to worry about, switch back to washington, and see if your credentials are there
https://account.yo-star.com/ u can always check which server u were on here

I am back to Washington... hopefully no tutorial...
not really, its more like they triple check with gph for every single decision they do 
oh no!!! Tutorial!
Try different servers
and it looks sometimes like they dont listen but usually its bc different ppl gave them different advice at different times lmao, kinda funny. they need to get more confidence to make decisions themselves imo
naa he asked the same question like 5 times within an hour last time

Tho they made pretty good progress lol and i do that too sometimes
gave him link he said he dont want to read n stuff
don't use yorkii was my favorite
Okay, What should I do? Please step by step.
followed very closely by don't use aquila
some ppl need more active guidance, they learn differently. i really dont think its an issue since this channel is to ask questions anyway.
Back to Tutorial.
What if I don’t learn
tho it is kinda funny seeing they asked about vv vs hood today when that got answered like a month ago iirc
Most people are very casual on games and researching is an unknown concept to them
different people asking the same quesiton is fine
but also tbf you can forget things over a month
but same person asking the same question is not fine , unless they ask the same quesiton form a month apart i guess thats fine
I think you have the wrong person... I havent been in this server in a long time...
not you
they either forgot they asked or they didnt see a reply bc it came late. many reasons why this would happen.
🇷🇺
Alright, so follow these steps
But tbf i did get really confused once especially with the Fu shun retrofit which i ended asking like 4 times and got diff answers, but i ended up retrofiting her thanks to that Invade france guy for my 2nd fleet lol
then take it to customer support, along with any account credentials you can think of including any receipts if you've spent money
I ask the same questions everyday
when will you ask about ur aa again?
Yah
gph is cool and helpful but one issue you might encounter is the regulars might have very different opinions on some things, which can lead to conflicting advice and confusion xD
Quit the game. Is all progress lost to recover my account on my own?
~~ is the new AA good guys
~~
Try all servers if you havent
we can't help you anymore you need to talk to actual people in customer support
the amt of back and forth i remember with xeno, yk2, and aquila...
and even before that, vv and hood and ppl arguing leading them to 1lb both of them 
Okay heres the thing. I also logged into my ipad... could that have caused the error?
if you do this you don't need to waste time
just go here https://account.yo-star.com/ login with ur twitter or wtever u login with before and see which server ur account is

i actually wasnt here for the talks about the new equips
is it good then? id assume so cos 15 hit but it's also pretty expensive
Yes, via Tiwtter
