I think I should go back once the month is over and apply for officer
is rly active
last I check we have +400 days
just bought the battlepass on apple, transaction went through but its not showing as unlocked? tapping on the buy button shows invalid repeat operation :/
#tech-support or contact cs
ah thanks
had you tried turn the game on and off? /s
yeah restarting should be the basic gamer reflex 
just turn off smartphone and go to sleep 
Tek support
that was a fast response from cs
they're probably laughing in tech support about you
see rule 3
what are the best fleets for w15-3 and 15-4 auto?
Choukai is obtainable from 12-4? 
I know I can make a thread to ask help but I'm sure there's already best sollution for this
what are the chances
try checking /w15
unknown
no specified rate
/droprate
Q: What are the drop rates for __?
A: Map drop rates are unknown and cannot be datamined, due to being server-side. The only one known is 0.75% for Akagi/Kaga (individually) on 3-4. Community data collection suggests the other gold ship drop rates are somewhat similar, however.
Q: Then where should I farm for __?
A: Farm the highest map you can for it. Higher stages give more EXP, upgrade parts, equipment, and shop currency. Community data collection suggests the drop rates are also probably higher on higher worlds.
thanks
very high. i think choukai hates me by now
so 100% collection rate with full built eh? otherwise i think that w15 guide is the best way to construct a fleet thats doable for your dock...
w15 fully disclaims auto performance
erm yeah I have 100% collection rate and all SR and UR in docks
maybe musashi aquila boss is good? have you tried it not that combo but what your boss can do against 3 bosses?
just didn't bother finishing 15w when got trouble with it
otherwise use perseus in boss
because w15 auto need to be manage boss fleet?
your collection doesnt tell much
I feel like that is missing like 14 ships
you grind opsi right, so getting gears from gearlab shouldn't be a problem right?
it tells us, you have the ship
but is it prepared? do you have right gears? are they leveled/do30d?
(was going to just post a bilibili video but then i realize its in chinese)
I think so
you can
so if the gearing is right, just try musashi aquila unicorn, z52 sandy/shimanto eld, and crossfleet boss fleet with guam sandy/shimanto etc. should work, at least for me when i copied that on my friend's acc, (20kish fleet tech), rumey chinese x2 for support fleet, with new plane x 6
Will it better for heavy/med?
not better for heavy
I finally maxed out nak, fritz, and etc
but ur rainbow fleets should deal with anything in opsi alr so why change
ayo is that bristol
I've tried to do it with guam/laffy2/shimanto but It didn't go well, maybe I was doing something wrong
That's fair, I just want to use Nakhimov somewhere
feel free, theyll work just fine
quyet moment 🔦

Would be more helpful replacing the BB fleets 
use Laffey II instead of Guam for 100% Quyet
Laffey for certain fleets would outperform Guam

/w15
This is a guide for world 15
https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/chapter-15
Hwah Jah is almost maxed and I just need a couple more 12-4s. Any thing that sticks out to you?
it doesnt look dead, i think youll be fine
unless youre running azz gear
what fails there ?
Mmm my last failure a couple months back felt like a combination of gear and support fleet
what exactly failed ?
But this is updated I thinkk
I felt like my mobbing fleet just kept dying/taking too much dmg
I could never do the third boss
are you running double line
slide guam in there
Yeah double line :0
put guam in mob as well
fleet 2 is literally doing a single boss
Mm okay, do I replace Brest or Laffey?
replace brest with eldr make laffii tank and put percy in boss fleet
wat
sadly I don't have eld. Took a weird break and I didn't end up with Amagi/Eld as my only missing URs
brest ofc
and yea percy boss could help with some heal
Mmm okay :p I'll replace Shinano I'm guessing?
And I can put Guam on 1. And I can probably switch the Guam slot with brest on the second fleet
do you have a mlb-ed Z52?
soy nyah amagii is pretty meta right now
oh nm on amagii 
How good is Z52 AA?
how do i find the time of my bb's volleys and airstrikes
when will dr5 coining be available
Maybe like next year who knows
About a year from now
exact or general?
aight i see
exac
Look above
use a calculator
nvm now i know, thanks
i was wondering why it wouldn't update after adding the reload thingy
I will need you to elaborate more on that and I suck at math
the reload formula is a little bit complicated so using the calculator tool is better 
i was trying to sync my implacable airstrike with my bbs, cant seem to do it lol
do u have max rld tech ?
not sure what's that

You just need general time for that
this?
u are trying to do one of the hardest tasks while not knowing one of the most basic knowledge
this can't match very well 
yes and it looks like not maxed
try to max it
how
Just max your tech bro
great advice
lvl 7 on both union and royal
the rest is ships 120 beside aquila
sync something like a ~21 sec airstrike with ~20 sec salvo
shouldn't aitstrike come first?
Do you mind posting pics of your ship with gear
First, why do you want to sync Implac with BBs,
Second, use this calculator
I think we should fixing his fleet
maybe theyre cooking
if u use a slowish gun without a radar but u lose on hit stats
i don't know how u should do this TBH there are many variables here
for example something lioke this, i want implacable to slow so that my musashi can hit
+13 cata or +11 manjuu better dmg?
still use a calculator and basically never
do you have bismarck zwei
i dont think so
and syncing with implac honestly just sounds like a bad idea
Mushi with the twin 410mm and Fire control table
🤦♂️
Did you use the ectl gear recommendation?
idk 😭
oathed musasi too 
i followed the tier list's
Without actually reading what the gear do?
although yes in this case general would show you are so far off it's not even worth bothering to try.
Who are you even trying to kill with that line up?
even with 81 rld, shes not catching up to sashi
medium armor bosses ig lol at this point im confused
why are you using a twin 410 then
why you even sync CV with a 17s reload gun
THE SKYRAIDER
calculator doing it's job.
eh sorry i forgot to change to triple 410mm
I give up
Do you have two other rainbow BBs 6 stars?
these are all i got
try the yamato gun
?
just curious is this meta because where else is no cats?
what
what are you even trying to fight rn
i cant oneshot taihou meta
taihou meta is heavy armor
ya i changed my gears
Fucking called it


what's wrong with the skyraider
0 damage against heavy
It is for light armor enemies
only for light?
Still can use for medium armor enemies but there are better options for med
what are better db options for med?
come again after fs5 haku imo 
it doesnt even sync
ya that's why idk
the wiki says in the table tenrai then the pr5 one 
hm?
do you have this from pr7?
because their timers are not close
if u want stuff to sync use the calculator and bring the number near eacher
so for now i dont bother with syncing until i got my reload tech maxed out?
you can certainly sync without max reload tech
u will have a better fleet before being able to max the rld tech i think 
but you won't be getting 4 strike implacable in meta showdown
Skyraider is the premier DB for light and med 
skyraider is BIS for med/light in DB slots
u can ignore wiki table for plane bomb dmg
so idk what the other guy was saying abt better options 
So apparently best DB for med armor is Skyraider>Tenrai>Experimental Helldiver(it in gear lab I can't remember the name)?
+13 skyraider beats helldiver on heavy aswell, its just by a little and prob not worth the timing tradeoff
is it because guided rockets vs random bombs ?
and rockets just do more dps + high hitrate
because wiki table doesnt consider hitrates
also rockets arent guided
The X-Helldiver(gold) or the purple Helldiver?
Wait what? It beat heavy?
the purple
small margin
and its slow as shit
I can sleep well with that
and gold aswell if its only +10, but please dont enhance goldivers to +13
Skyraider is later by more than 1 second
so what can this poor soul do, 3 salvo musashi vanguard implac?
or we can bring in the sr bbs
actually, yea just run sashi vg,
and then implac does random time ez
What about triple CV against Taihou meta
wheres the triple cv
Add some random gold CV I guess
so the skyraider have unguided missiles
? i looked now in the wiki and it looks only the sidewinder have it with infra red system aim9 something
aint no way we have sidewinders in game
i wanna say just let implac do its thing and sync vanny and sushi if 4 salvo bb is possible
Sidewinder is AAM
i meant the wikipedia
rockets not missiles
@lapis linden
why add random gold cvs when u have vanny and musashi in ur arsenal
HVAR is just HVAR, you can mount it on anything that you think you can mount
also recommend not enhancing the triple 410 more especially if you already have this twin 410 mod A
is 305 fine on fdg?
terrible
If only there a calculator that took all your stuff and spit out the best thing
main fleet ships don't have all out assault. And fdg does not have a strong on-salvo barrage
srry wording problem and ok so normal gun on her no barrage gun thx
What's the deal with neptune gun in BB secondery
what
trapped
basically zero bbs want 305mm. Stick to champ/soyuz/flandre, mk7, or 457 in general
where
Yeah ectl
hovering and reading exists
too expensive
thats the opposite of what theyre asking 

i think nep gun is on ectl as one of if not the top bb aux guns reccs or so im told
top investment trap
best means better than ply gun, 137mm, gear lab twin 150, and 155 kai 
nep gun or Felix gun for ply (no ply gun)
wait, is nepgun actually the best interceptor 

I still use nep gun on my Helena
nvm I forgot the tl is accurate for <w14
I think it only accounted up to w13
\le w13 yeah
not expensive at all
ordnance 
4500 gold 
and the 72 stuff is also kinda expensive (?)
pr1 focus 
how good is 155kai for bb intercept outside of w14
I think my gears are outdated by 3-4 years,
ok
Yeah I think I just gonna still use the not Kai 155mm in w15 but still use the Kai 155mm in w14
as you shld yes
Ectl doesn't consider cost when making recommendations which is why plygun isn't listed. 
I guess plygun are much more expensive than nepgun to be reccomended in good faith
I gonna be honest, the first ply gun should go to your CL first instead of the BB
even if I don’t run CLs?
nepgun are much more expensive than other gear lab or tech box options and worse or equal to them
Yeah then I don't know what to do with that
Chien wants it
So blue research is better than gold research because is it cheaper or just faster or both?
Like what if I just want more prints for the resource I will spend but I don't care about the time
this is a really bad take
just few CLs can trully benefict from Ply Gun ...
if u run CLs like Sirius, Sandy and Helena, better use Ply Gun into UR BB for FP Boost
why
30 minutes gear researches are gold too
I read it from bot spam
if you only care about resource efficiency and not time efficiency, then wait a few years for the season to be catchupable/coinable/gearlabable/protocoreable
8h researches are generally bad unless you need a specific ur
4h kill enemy gold researches is not recommended too since there are better researches
I only pick those if I'm stuck with a 4h gold and all basic and it's too far from reset with no refresh available 
Which tbh happen more than not
thanks
for the UR AA guns in gear lab, which is more widely applicable?
i asked for help with w13+ yesterday and was recommended the new twin 76, but idk if that's purely for w13+
76
Running out of ships for fleet 3 vg for med bosses, any advice? Also I haven't switch order on third fleet vg yet
the -AA +hit makes that much of a difference?
+range
+alpha
-fire rate
+bis for 
+design beauty
i see
you can try hindenburg or unzen, tho prolly it's fine since Idk if Sirius going to be better or worse
How do i make a stage safe
keep fighting
😭 this is my mob
If you keep Plymouth, move Soyuz to flag to take advantage of Ply’s debuff.
I wish I had more vg options cause my goal is to never change fleets for opsi
not a 3 cv fan eh
Moveddd c: Plymouth buff for Soyuz. Nakhimov and Fritz catered for medium armor. Only thing I question is sirius
Would this work for w15?
probably not
might work on manual
mushashi practically necessitates an off healer on auto, so you cant run her + fritz
also underleveled
boss can be 3 CVs ?
this should be better
?
Is Hindenburg meant to be in a mob fleet or a boss fleet?
both works
Thanks
How far away is the next sardegna ur event?
next thursday,aka next maintenance
Can have one solo everything except Arbiter and Abyssals. Just need a fleet or two for those bosses.
no you can have a team that solos everything but Hard Arbiter
usually 1 team for heavy and 1 team for light
I use my mob fleet for just about everything except Hard Arbiter
and what is that team 😭
probably unicorn luna
i use my pvp fleet for ops mobbing
Ty but im missing so many of those 
I use a leveling fleet for ops mobbing
ya I'd figure so 
Any replacements for alsace and vanguards in the top team? 
NJ works for Alsace
soyuz and biskii
Sardegna UR?
Probably, we find out in like a day and a half.
maybe its a ss bonody knows
Twitter posts say Pasta event, livestream Sunday confirm actual ships.
trust in middii
Wait isn't call to arms mean ur anyways 
that's not what they asked
we know its an italian event from a post on azur lane twitter saying its an italian event
we know more information will come out on sunday cause thats when the jp stream is introducing the event
we knew from a Weibo posting on the CN boards first, then a vague tweet from EN Twitter, then JP patch notes basically confirmed it that's how this ride has been
I seeee ty. Sometimes I see people hint at events but I have no clue where the info comes from.
Thank you for the detailed answer
, no UR ss are a bad thing unless they widen their chances to be used
ss would be great. all those people saying don't use z52 because a ss is coming
sardignia empire having a UR sub when they were probably the nation with less subs
Is this any better
is this good enough 😭
that volga level 90
The grade is a little low
when is the stream?
You need to gain more experience at 124.
discord events section
35-36h iirc
when is discord events section?
ldv invented subs, probably
i said i see it now

Is this better for w15?
level 90
I feel like your fleet doesn't have enough AA With your vg options too
one way to find out
Timma suffer
Is this better ?
is guam laffii bad at aa?
Woops, killed my healers
that volga is still level 90
corporate says they're the same...
idk, but that shimimikaze is no good right?; idk about flandre
flandre?
oh, that is laffei ii ;then better than i thoght
idk if their fleet can do BMB
yes
How to fix?
time to level ships and to get better gears and to level those too
What sorta gear should I put on?
yes because you don't even gear fritz properly
How do I gear em properly?
/w15
This is a guide for world 15
https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/chapter-15
intercepting fighters on support
Also, you need some flapjacks
those or i think there were other options too, flapjack not really mandatory, but yeah need better interceptors
Both of em are on lusty now
they have a flapjack. it's just in the wrong place
:suchithread:
Any other improvements other than flapjacks?
What do I replace the wyvern with?
@robust jasper
Maybe haku
there's no subs on bosses...
Gave the hedgehogs to laffy
shinano would be most bang but least used wyvern. uni probably better than volga
Can i get the spreadsheet for the meta boss armor types
#bot-spam
It suvived 2 battles


told him that he needed time
How did you get past w14
Is Prototype Saiun Kai better than Aichi B7A Ryusei?
timing sidegrades
was this timing acceptable?
yes, but i think i would need different planes comporting loss of dps
like aren't 3 saiun dps loss? compared to the other 3 torp bombers?
6 vit-2 to +13
just mix and match ur +13s ig
btw what was the problem with manju? losing one steam catapult comports a big dmg loss?(53 avi loss didn't seem that big and its not like i use aux at +13 so that 2% difference would not exist for me
)
a slight loss
you could just reorder some planes and have no loss
also i think sushi said something about vit-2 mode change possibility to miss torps when used in the 3rd strike
(due to not optimal pattern or torpedo too slow iirc)
I think if there's one ship that shouldn't equip manju it's amagi cv
🐌
just make timings tight
these are what I use
they should be pretty tight if you run the builds through lars calc 
Stig has posted a looser but workable build you can probably find by searching around 
that's light
there's two



why don't just crop 
I did 
WhAts the best way to get gold circuit boards?
play opsi
best
only
actually there is also the raid 3/7 day thing
, but that is a bit little
do everything
Alr
Would it be worth it to run 2 Fairey Gannets on Perseus?
Where I can get more exp data pack
just keep running maps
its a slow process yes
upgrade lecture hall to make it faster
what is the best gold gun for hindenburg guys?
Depends on the enemy armor, but the Blucher gun that reran a few weeks ago is best against medium and close to best against heavy
that reran a few weeks ago
using L100 ships creates them
Twin 203mm with a yellow turret
the shop gun from the last event right?
asking this is a little too early but how about 2nd option for her 2nd gun
I would hope you have at least one UR CA gun with a dev 30 hindenburg
I hope
I have 16 blue print now and she's only dev 21
I guess I will have the rainbow gun when she's d30
🇷🇺
not a great ratio but maybe because you dumped a lot of generics into hindy
last month this sh*t was 17/50, almost a month PR4 focused and I got 2
feel like dedge
u should just lab one fr
Tenrai's in lab now, under Sakura gear.
so far away. was never going to happen
how can I get this thing
did you focus on gear tho?
Idk why I got 40 btw
scrap dr bp is the flashy way
ofc, I always priority the Q research
convert cdp is the turtle way
Excess blueprints, or analyze the CDC packs from Newcomer or Cruise Pass.
look like I will never get those then
turtle mentioned
research more efficiently
f*ck tenrai, I might focus on PR6 for Hindenburg shard + her rainbow gun then
is tenrai expensive or is it not?
I barely do PR6 and I got 16 print of Hindy gun somehow
Tenrai is about as expensive as 457
How about you go do pr7 instead
80 smh electronics iirc
I feel tenrai is less expensive than what I thought
why tho?
because s8 looms. R0 music intensifies
if you do pr7 now, you might be able to finish everyone there before pr8 comes
Why would you wanna do pr6 tho?
I like Hindy a little, and I want her gun as well

to be fair, I like Nakhimov as well, so either way is fine
nyah and nap are probably some of the easiest ships to start. next event solves the sardine problem. lucksack some np or work war archives a bit and done.
If you equip two asw planes on a cvl, does that mean you actually send out two planes at once?
Both planes intercept but not necessarily at the same time
a month ago this thing was like 600 points, now it double
Gannet has no guns so it doesn’t actually intercept right?
guys, about the catch up system, PR ships share the 300 while DR ships have their own 150 right?
if I focus on PR7 now, should I focus on gear or ship?
ship probably?
either way is fine, but probably ship will benefit you more, with bayard and nakhimov
gear is long term better but it feels bad when everyone got thtir nakh already
or you can just do mix and just take good researches
probably
just take good researches, youll get at least one la9 before pr8
not like i can use her at her best with no soyuz
but I think I will take gold research instead of 1h or 2h Q research
I will still take the 4h one tho
I mean she can be a better ark royal at minimum
Just bring Tashkent instead!
mixed research is just rainbow > UL > blue coin/plate research > purple coin/plate > gold coin
tldr take good researches and youll finish a season in like 4 months
purple plate better than coin blue

she's fine if you're rich. if you have at least one intercepting torpedo bomber there shouldn't be too many complaints about her on mob
did they remove us being able to pick our roles?
i promise im not dumb
is it possible to get taihou meta still? with only 20 days remaining?
get yes, max not unless you have her already
nope, just trying to get her, I'm new to operation siren, i did my 3 battles of her and collected enough blue chips to do a 4th and im trying to get my 5th so i can battle her one more time. how many days do you think it'd take? I need like 5000 right? maybe 10-15 days if I can do all 5 battles a day? are there any other methods im missing to get more sync pts?
nope. 975 is the max per day. probably closer to 925 for you.
oh wow 975 is a lot. I got like 71 on the first 3 and then 150 on the 4th one so i assume another 150 on the 5th so 510?? how do I get that 925? did I do something wrong?
ahh it starts from 150 and settles on 375 at level 15
oh interesting, I don't quite fully understand but it's okay I'll just keep battling and saving! you've been very kind, ty for sharing the information!
the first time you kill her is 150 points. The 15th and all future times is 375
OH!! that's really good!! I need to keep killing her then >:O tyty!! I think I can get her!!
good luck. don't get too discouraged when you can't kill her in one shot anymore. come back here for more help 
generally starting from scratch it takes about a month to MLB her, 20 days left would depend on your current score
same is true of all showdown METAs
it's not the end of the world if you can't finish her now, showdowns do come back in the dossier but it just means you can't really use her meanwhile
I'm fine with not being able to MLB, I also just tried out the dossier, it's pretty cool, got 500 sync pts, it seems much easier to get pts on the dossier than the regular ones??? but yea I just wanna obtain taihou meta, I can MLB later when she's on the dossier
not like shes exceptional anyways, u arent missing out on much
I mostly just play this game to collect so It's okay if she's bad
dossier is always 500/fight
just unlock her + get as far as u can, you can still grind her to 120 without mlb
What's a good team to get to ch 9 from my box also I can a voucher to get any pr series 4
Here's my box
max limit break unicorn and helena
also work on their retrofits, unicorn being higher priority
imo main fleet: unicorn, enterprise, arizona
vanguard: portland, z23, helena
how many tenrai T0 is good to have?
2 is a good amount
I have 2. Are there other good options for a carrier fleet?
?
I have 2 plus13 tenrais, don’t really ever use more
I usually have more than 2 slots for them in a carrier fleet
i used 3 for nagato meta
youre weird
then run a helldiver
it is the best dive bomber except skyraider beats it vs light/med bosses (but skyraider can cause timing issues)
Vs bosses tbh flex slots will prob run a conv tb
or implac
tenrai is also great for mobbing
yeah, the conv might be better
And mob fleets in campaign just use a helldiver
i got a third tenrai for flex
I have a couple tenrai copies I just randomly slot in for mobbing
is that Season 7 conv the best?
you're weird 
But they’re kind of a whim thing
highest alpha
Slowest but highest alpha
all the gold converging torps are basically sidegrades
i'm working on season 7 now.
It’s like you have four conv tb options all with slightly different dmg and timing
okay, i'll stick with my 2 upgraded ones then. ryusi something or rather
my 4 oil fleets need tenrais 
I use saiun most of the time though for meta bossing
The other stuff these days I randomly slot in stuff
i dont do meta
Taz spit out a list of Meta tech ships the other day in like 2 sec. How'd he do that
Obv copy paste
i tried to find the post but couldn't
If 2 secs is an exaggeration though many of us have the important tech ships memorized
mayb he has milisecond word per second
he had 2 photos
you just go over to retropaint or lars, and sort by the stats
I need to spend 30k coin
ok?
so i'm going to do the metas
or just
? My ibuki is done
coin some ships
Just use what jadeite recommended. Duca is a good ship but there are starter missions associated with z23/Portland so… plus entry wants gold bulins in priority
yeah, that's a good way to burn coin
Can do gear lab
i haven't read the changes yet. might get 1 more tenrai
new best UR aa, and tenrai
Pr4 got added, also great aa gun added
oh new best aa. I just got another UR aa a few weeks ago, to finish W15....
MLB them right away or wait til they're 70 lbs 80 lb etc and what about my pr4 ticket
doesnt make the old one bad
Not sure if it’s best aa since it’s slightly less Dps iirc
Gotcha
yeah, but used my UR vouncher things
15 hit and more range
Obv pretty expensive too
Should I use my pr4 voucher and get a BB or otherwise
I forget, you get 343 blueprints with it too?
Yes
Pr4 BB isn't good
Grab anchorage
If you want to pay then pick august or anchorage
i'm not sure what I need good AA for except for W15
It’s a better staag
oh, ok
15 hit. Everyone wants one
i need that then!
Who Would i sub anchor for
Bench Janus
But just use Portland for the missions rn
Just that Portland has missions
You’ll later want a second fleet
Comes in useful for that
Bet
Imo better to skip the missions until the second fleet rather than deal with an unretro Portland
Thanks, is there a pin or link that has gear recommendations for characters
The first two sets of missions don't give sandy
i use the tier list for gear recommendations
limit break them whenever possible
Welp
did you already buy the ticket?
I don't understand today's pin
Got it and yea i did
Is there anywhere taht talks about the new gear (besides the in-game update note)
tbh i am leaning more on August von Parseval
anchorage is a close 2nd but she is easy to get because she only needs eagle union vanguards which are easy to get
AVP is a little tricky because there is not much iron blood main ships accessible early on
Actually Anchorage tech is hard
it is?
But AvP really makes fdg rush a lot faster
Yep. IB ships might be fewer but each ship gives more points
For eu you have you to build/acquire significantly more
So Anchorage?
avp for me
I still prefer anchorage but oh well
inb4 new UR grants +100% FP to sardegna BBs
I feel like avp loses value considering implac reruns within <1.5 2 months
i prefer anchorage but avp is a good option too 
oh its that close?
is there a way to even get the blue/purple italian gear for gear lab crafting? like how there are the iris gear boxes
if so then yeah i would go for anchorage now
yeah medal shop
i just buy them in the normal shop when i see them
I'll go anchorage
We know this?
(we don't)
speculations
"according to me"
I never kept track of reruns, do they have regular Timeslots? Because I never felt like it
Maybe you don't
But I ||...also don't||
they don't
maybe theyre from the future, you never know 
generally they don't do 2 new events in a row thats like the only pattern and even then its not a guarantee
this is the most down time i've had playing the game for the last 16 months
Happens every year
We had lunar new year though plus an event technically
Lunar new year is gaming for 1 week and downtime for 2
Not that much downtime
there was 2-3 ships in the rerun. Took me a day or two to finish it. Not complaining. The pace is fine.
i was glad for the downtime
everything before it felt like RUSH RUSH RUSH ever since musashi
yeah, i've felt that way most of the time since i started
Kind of needed to save some money from buying gear skinboxes to spend on cats
especially since all the reruns are new to me. 1 week hurry
same
Aren’t you from 2021?
lmao
not like i played so
lets see
i had to grind out vanny event
and uh the legendary yk2 event
“Legendary”
dark times
okay, what website did you guys mention where i can get a list of meta tech ships?
https://retropaint.github.io/azur-lane-fleet-tech-tracker/
this is my personal fave
and b4 i get called out
https://azurlane.mrlar.dev/db/tracker
heres a more comprehensive one
what is a CSV import export?
The thing is it’s like one guy writing it I think
zero* 
Great tool for anyone using it but I remember finding a couple mistakes and dming the person on discord
like importing retropaint stats to lars
allows you to backup your data by downloading it, or transfer your data from retropaint to mrlar
which is not relevant if you've never used either
I just use the wiki, my memory does the rest
do these trackers let me upload my game data?
have fun
Have to go through each ship putting to 120 to get the tech tracked properly
idk why, but retropaint auto overrides my faction tech level , auto sets it and it pisses me off
to the point i almost destroyed my mouse
is there any website that uploads your game data for useful purposes
Which is kind of a pain if you’re a tech farmer and don’t regularly use the website
sounds like you have
issues
i do not 
game has no third party app that connects to it
has anyone written a summary of the new gearlab stuff yet?
suchi has a vid on it
i think stig has a video of it
video isn't written
stigma ⚾
why does the pin mention deleting dorm 3d?
transcribe
because its bulky and a waste of space to anyone who doesnt do it
my old phone won't even play it
twin 76mm mk37 = best AA except sometimes 134mm for vanguard damage or twin 57 as a sidegrade for AA
Gannet = possibly the best ASW plane
FW = best support fleet fighter by a little
my gold asw already getting powercrept smh
what do you need ASW planes for?
well
just use hedgehog + eldridge 
what if i dont have eld 
how many 12-4 sorties do i have to run per day just to use the daily oil amount?
what's the daily oil amount divided by 317
12-15
How much oil your fleet actually using
it's a cap....

well 30 one day and then 9-12 for the other 6 days is more like it
Sorry I play before there was oil cap, it doesn't register for me
yeah 12 seems about right for normal days.
hi guys
whats the averge pace for a la9
It’s been like over 2.5 years since oil cap…
Yes
starting in world 9, there are caps on all the stages once you clear the stage.
The oil cap is listed in-game
? Don’t have the ship or don’t have the retro item?
Cause she’s merit obtainable too
i do
but im asking what if a peep doesnt have eld item specifically 
Uh is there a CV or cvl with secondary gun ?
yeh
Uh fumey
fritz rumey, and other rld tech shitters
Sound like the first thing peep should do is getting eld then
50 prints every 2 months/2.5 months I reckon
The only other ones were trash tier cvls iirc
bearn
i mean houshou
Hey. It's been a while since I played, is there any way to reliably get gems?
Credit card
Like, stages and stuff?
sure
3* rewards
and then anni
cny
They give you a few hundred every year..... like happy new sorta year thing
Every anniversary and Chinese new year
Jesus. That sucks.
gacha game moment
I mean they give you enough to keep up with ship increase
Just not if you’re a newbie ig if you’re going for everyone
I've seen 200 for sale for a buck a couple times.......
there was a former f2p player i know who had 100% collection while being f2p
Yeah but they’re from 2021
Yeah, but like... skins... idk, most games don't lock skins behind a stupid rare currency like that.
They do
what
What games?
Most games lock 100% collection behind mountains of cash
In AL I haven’t spent a cent trying to pull any ships or get dupes
So I know what I prefer
or get lucky in gachapon at christmas = 1.5k gems 
Now that I think about it, I guess the only game I can think of that doesn't is Arknights.
I also don't play many games with skins, so... what does Hoyoverse do for their skins? Are they locked behind the paid currency?
dunno, but not a gph topic
It still eat into your pulls if you have bad luck also #al-general #off-topic
the game does give you free skins though once in a while

But #gameplay-help buying skins? With gems? Not gonna happen
Said person is comparing with arknights where you can indeed buy skins for the character you want with free currency (just has far lower overall gacha currency gain) but yeah sorry not gph topic
there are no broskins. don't ban me
Clevebro
Also our skins are kind of among the best in the market tbh
From what I seen, no other game have this much interactive l2d skins, their l2d skins would just be Dynamic in Azur lane
I'm a p2p player. I ain't got time for f2p. Time is money.
I'm going to go find that video on the new gear. what's his name
second to last video in #media-content
Watched the gear video. I just used my UR AA design plans to buy a twin 57. And now it's obsolete.......
its not obsolete
its still really good
the video explained how it is more expensive in mats than the new UR AA too
wat
true story. new gun takes less electronics and stuff
what ab crafting the predecesor
including precurssor costs
both cost 81
im pretty sure that's not what the video said
i just watched it.
it's 81 electronics
then again boomers like myself have a bunch of trash can prints so we can just skip that step
not a big deal, limiting factor is UR designs which are the same for the crappy twin 57 and the super new UR AA
Crappy???????
bro did not read what i said
sorry i mean obsolete
Obsolete ????
hating on my Ur aa
i'm just kidding, it's 2nd best now. cost about the same
I get you are sore about crafting it , but it suddenly doesn't turn from meta aa to non meta just cause of one aa gun
i still love my 57s
how many do you have?
It's almost guranteed to show up in endgame aa
2 57s one 76 because i crafted a wyvern 2 days prior
let me see if i plated my to 13
Also for 99% of the player base you won't notice a difference 
most of the playerbase dont even have Ur aas
If you are sucking ass at w15, a different AA gun is going to do nada
i finished it. but i didn't auto it that's for sure
Is kazagumo heal repeatable or once ?

Kazagumo's heal isn't gonna do much on the whole...
once per battle and it shouldn't matter
Ogey
Also it only healers at 4th torpedo wave , you can only fire a 4th time once
Are AmagiCV and Haku the only carriers that can put Tenrais in the figther slot?
they're flex slots, not fighter slots
flex
and the first slot isn't necessarily a fighter slot
Shinano
let me restate that question: which carriers don't have to have a fighter?
Shouhou and Ark royal are examples

so there's a bunch?
theres some
Hermes
impero
but UR are Amagi Haku Shinano

which carriers have preloads?
me
besides uni
perceus
aquila, chise, formidable muse, perseus
i don't think I have aquila and perseus..... they haven't rerun yet?
its agood time to uh check wiki
they have been permanenized
aquila: Available in Limited Construction during the Daedalian Hymn event
left, but possibly both
she is now on permanent special pool
Nah I was not high
perseus: Available in Limited Construction during the Aurora Noctis event
white mode says it all
aquila and perseus are both in perma pool
did that just happen?
no
When a ship banner done with rerun they go into perma pool
you can pick them up either during UR banners that share special pool or wishing well
oh, thank you for the help
how do you know if they are in a UR banner special pool?
i look at trophy room
They are already in perma
When a ship done rerun they go into perma pool, I just said that
so i can pull for it now?
chance
You can pull but high chance you won't get those two specific ships
Wait for UR banner
Very high chance you won't get
Actually
How much cubes you have right now
are they in all the UR banner event pools?
technically yes
Yes
The UR banner included the perma pool
ah....inconsistency
that doesnt matter, literally wait for WW or drop her in UR events
on Aquila it's "Special Ship Construction"
small indie dev studio 
momento > archives
I afraid that he doesn't have enough for UR banner
it doesn't list the ships when i click on special. does it list what's in the pool somewhere?
NEVER PULL perma unless its WW
im speaking from experience, you get literal nothing
that's leet 🤝
wiki
Literally what everyone is saying for the last 10 minutes
i'm just trying to find out what's in the pools. how else would i know about aquila and perseus and stuff like that
it doesnt say it in the wiki, where it tells you how to obtain the ship
they just told you...
ignorance is sometimes a blessing
There is also a ingame wiki
oh i see, if special is checked, then it's in the special pool (all the time?)
This thing
if u see anything wrong with wiki, just ping me and i might fix it
or pester the guys in green
green check means what it is currently, white dot means it was at one point in the past
why did i get doubted
makes sense now... i don't know why i thought special meant some some of special limited thingy
Ww??
wishing well
scam wishing well
Thankss
can being poor be considered a scam
Wishing well is definitely a scam if it running anywhere near a UR banner
Heck, any event banner at all
I've never even seen that build wiki page before. Learn something new every night with you guys
isn't WW only run during EN and CN anni for us?
yes
which mean it's always a scam 
a newbie trap yes but highly doubt it's a scam
its a scam because the rate up is a lie
you know what is a scam?
pulling on perma without any rateup
what's better in most general sense, having more wyv or tenrai?
Preferably both
yes having more is better in most general sense
You can't compare Dive bomb vs Torpedo bomber
just have a balanced amount
like 3-4 wyvs are good enough
2 tenrais are good enough for heavy bossing
also pulling in WW on Heavy/Special can still drop UR so might as well pull on it if you have cube to spare instead of going for perma
I have 2 tenrai and 2 wyv. i have enough designs for another
i would save
that's listed for literally every ship that was from an event, check the build pool tickboxes at the side instead
see heres the question
do you need it rn?
and im sure youre at a point where you can decide what you want/need
you could do a 3rd tenrai or x number of wyverns like me if you are too lazy to swap gears
I can put a tenrai on instead of a flapjack for 3 UR carriers.
gets tenrai, proceeds to just use fighter on aquila instead
is there even a situation where you would want a tenrai in a flex slot over converging torp?
incetpt is dead 
a flex slot that can't fit TBs 
oh that would be the mythical flex ur carrier for the 3 ur carriers
on Amagi, for example, I can put a dive bomber or fighter in slot 1 it seems.
Amagi slot 1 and Aquila
looks like it's that way for Haku and shinano too
Hakuryuu and Shinano flex slots can all fit TB
what is TB?
torp bomber
if you're using a Tenrai it's more likely for anti-heavy, and if it's anti-heavy you're better off using the converging torp bombers
well i'm running 4 cycle so it's pirate for me
Tenrai has very little actual use in boss comps
if not for campaign at least
on flex slots most of the time you'd be using a TB
on DB slots it's very potentially swapped for a fast plane depending on comp
especially if you're running 4-strike comps
I'm running 3 strike comps so I do have 1 on Hakuryuu and Shinano on the non-flex slots
but practically the tenrai that sees the most action is the one on my Aquila for OS preload mobbing 
i just use 4 amagis for that
Well unique
Not all of us are rich
what's a DB slot fast plane?
model 12a
fulmar, suisei, suisei 12A
The plane before tenrai in lab
How many converg can i put on Amagi
2
just put toolboxes
\
i'm going to have to try that
🤨
she heavily favors torpedo bombers
wait you have a tenrai too?
whatre we cooking here
what does toolboxes have to do with planes
for fleet power 
acting like i dont farm d3 for toolkits

thanks for the help, upping my carrier game
more yet less
I refuse to bother with fleetpower ranking because you're fighting other players' wallets for dock space and dupes
I only fight other players' wallets for imas
Avrora server leaderboard is insane
I was reading about Perseus. I need this ship.
