[honest stirrup]

Does not matter if you're going for all clues or going for a specific ending
"start investigation" is a no brainer

Wdym a way to optimise
Yeah sure some quests can be done at once but most of them needs all 4 slots to be filled

[boreal wagon]

if you do page 5 before page 4 you have to do less sorties
stuff like that

[wind hazel]

so we going backwards... but actually going forwards

[deep cypress]

Too late for my sorry ass.

[forest palm]

with the way this event is structured, understandable

[eternal basalt]

I wonder about SP with bonus.... most go on the event without, but it might make a difference

We got 14 days anyway

[sweet delta]

endings? Is this skippable like project identity

[boreal wagon]

if you want all the stickers no

[sweet delta]

I want all the stickers

[boreal wagon]

also gives cubes for viewing them all

[deep cypress]

Then come and suffer with the rest of us, brother.

[honest stirrup]

I feel like it's just way simpler to prioritise every mission that asks for 4 slots since they can't be changed anyways, and then look into the others

[boreal wagon]

thats what im saying tho with it can be optimised further than my original statement of working from the top

you just really dont need to because you need 32-40k currency anyway if you want goldplates/coggies

[cobalt rapids]

how much currency after finishing all notes and clues

[worn quest]

should i be farming the esp medical center?

[boreal wagon]

i have 14k-ish

[eternal basalt]

Do what's required

[honest stirrup]

do clues first then see

[cobalt rapids]

i dont think slander is required

[honest stirrup]

yep ok sorry

[harsh gust]

that's just needlessly rude

[deep cypress]

It was funny, come on.

[elfin hollow]

Good?

[wind hazel]

use double line and it's good

[honest stirrup]

Quite good, even. You can try to retrofit anytime soon though because it's quite the whole point of some of them such as Portland and Unicorn

[deep cypress]

And Nelson.

[honest stirrup]

I'd say Unicorn and Portland are bigger priorities. Unicorn for obvious reasons and Portland because she's cheaper and a good tank is always nice in early game.

[deep cypress]

True.

I retrofitted Nelson, MLB her and got her to 125, tho... Maybe I'm a little bit biased. Don't mind me.

[honest stirrup]

I mean, she is good and retrofitting her is a good investement for anytime in the game, but DPS/damage rarely matter that much at the start

[deep cypress]

No, I'm with you. Unicorn should be the priority there. Then Portland. For sure.

I'm just a Nelson fanboy.

[eager marsh]

the guide never mentions the gold version of this? how is it?

[honest stirrup]

It's significantly worse

[eager mulch]

gold quints are bad

[sweet delta]

What is this guide

[atomic abyss]

gold quint worse than gold quad

[cobalt rapids]

best magnetic

[eager mulch]

out dated

[glossy granite]

Figuring out this event my brain collapsing

Where do i go for the stages 😭

[honest stirrup]

When you're on the screen where you get to choose a level, click on "Note" on bottom right corner
Then click on "Start investigation" of every hint of every page. Everytime you do this, do 3 battles

[worldly pewter]

press investigate

[glossy granite]

And i pick lvl 90 yes

[sweet delta]

Why is quad mag a side grade to improved quad mag when it's 14 to 23% worse

[glossy granite]

I can start directly at 90?

[honest stirrup]

it automatically picks level 90 afaik

At least it does for me so maybe do 1 battle in nightime and it will...?

[boreal wagon]

it picks whatever is needed to complete the task

[cobalt rapids]

maybe not updated yet

[honest stirrup]

he's talking about the time. Tasks don't care about time

[boreal wagon]

some of them do

[honest stirrup]

But that's beside the point

If he can do the tasks that don't require a specific time, then he should pick night (level 90)
That was his question

[sharp comet]

is there anyone who clears the event stages lvl 90 sub20 seconds?

[eternal basalt]

It always takes the night, regardless the task

[boreal wagon]

assuming the task doesnt require a time yes

[honest stirrup]

I found one task asking for day time and it picked day time

[eternal basalt]

Combine it with a 2 requirements mission

[sweet delta]

Not updated for a year

[honest stirrup]

My two cents is that improved quad is limited

[boreal wagon]

idk if that warrants calling it a side grade

[stark quiver]

For the story missions and secrets
Do I just click the investigate button and select how many runs to do

[boreal wagon]

investigate -> repeat 3

[honest stirrup]

pretty much yes (3 battles is all you need)

[stark quiver]

[deep cypress]

Are we farming the ESP stage?

[honest stirrup]

isn't that just pickering on vocabulary? Afaik normal quad mag is still the best quad outside of the improved, limited version

[boreal wagon]

yeah but the guide calls other event limited gear best

if anything it should be consistent and calling it a side grade can be misleading to people who do have it imo

but i dont particularly care that much anyway i just gave my 2 cents

[sweet delta]

Some CL guns with less than 10% difference are called 2nd best vs 3rd best

That's my 1 cent

[honest stirrup]

I clear them in 22 seconds or so. Not sure if sub 20 is actually possible since there's a limit on how fast enemies spawn. The second boss takes like 3 seconds by itself to even spawn

Edit: nvm it is, just done 18s

[clever jungle]

best thing for f2p player to spend gems on? i just started playing a few days ago and there r various answers online for what you should spend gems on

[honest stirrup]

dock space
Dorm slots and 2nd floor

[undone plover]

1 dorm slot
2nd floor
dock space
that is what we usually recommend

[cobalt rapids]

/gems in #bot-spam

[astral sleet]

Just want to ask if Houston 2 and Santa Fe Buff Independence ? Or Are they fake Cleveland class ships?

[sharp comet]

whats ur fleet

[honest stirrup]

Musachi (idk why), Perseus, Alsace
Unzen, Shimakaze, Plymouth

You can surely improve that fleet, because I just threw whatever sounded like "what deals a lot of damage quickly"

[eternal basalt]

Why use such a fleet, farm affection and xp Level 90s easy

[sharp comet]

cause ppl just wanna mindlessly rush things asap?

[eternal basalt]

Sante Fe is cleveland-class

[atomic abyss]

i think he's asking if they count for indep's skill

which they should

[eternal basalt]

Yeah, my bad.... Houston 2 is also tagged as cleveland-class

Why is Boise tagged with μ

[atomic abyss]

that said no one actually considers that skill

[sweet delta]

They should, but do they?

[honest stirrup]

Is this a copy-paste problem?

[eternal basalt]

#bug-reports Report it here though

[thorn tartan]

how do i play the intro video again.... i missed it

[quartz junco]

Once you get to the main screen there is a little button bottom right that changes the Battle and Formation change. Its under Memories iirc

[soft raft]

i think he meant the promo video for the event with animations and the skin showcase

[thorn tartan]

yeah, the promo for the event

[quartz junco]

Oh my bad

[thorn tartan]

if i click the screen, it goes away,

if i don't click the screen, my phone goes dark.... annoying

maybe volume up would work

[soft raft]

tap once then you can press the OP button on the left

[thorn tartan]

oh is it the little video button on the left?

[soft raft]

yuh

[eager marsh]

is this 100% plate refund?

[honest stirrup]

25% refund

[soft raft]

only gear lab gives 100% plate refund

[quartz junco]

Oh anyway the question i was going to ask was from PR1-4 which are the top ones to prioritize. Ive seen some Agir being top of 4 but there are a lot of ships in that list.

[soft raft]

PR1: Ibuki w/aug if you dont have Unzen
PR2: FdG
PR3: Cheshire
PR4: Basically everyone except Marco Polo

[quartz junco]

A concise list i love it ❤️

[thorn tartan]

where is cheshire useful?

[atomic abyss]

plane hells
so w13 and w15

[novel condor]

AA heavy worlds prob? Like w13 and 15

[thorn tartan]

I never used her. Had better options by the time I got to end of campaign. I went really slowly prob

Saw no good reason to rush it.

[sweet delta]

Same

[atomic abyss]

well, you had little alternatives for sandy kai back in the day

chesh was the only one close enough

now you have shimanto as well

[eager marsh]

Do these have any use? they're not in the guide

[atomic abyss]

let alone guam and laff 2

[honest stirrup]

I'd just rush to pr4 for Anchorage and Haku and Ägir

[atomic abyss]

she can

[soft raft]

she has been coinable since like Jan/Feb this year

[honest stirrup]

Ägir?

[atomic abyss]

agir and haku yes

[honest stirrup]

My bad then, I completed dev30 before the coin

[atomic abyss]

what agir lacks is fatesim not coining

[quartz junco]

Ya plus PR4 looks the best for waifus for me. Minus Marco lol

[worn quest]

what stage should i be farming in the event

[thorn tartan]

"ESP is only more oil efficient than Night stages on the first clear daily or if you can 1:1 everything? But the pin also says there are no clearning rewards...

[honest stirrup]

Do the quests then any lvl 90 stage if you really want the milestones rewards

[thorn tartan]

I logged in and went and did ESP straight away... I guess I need to read how this event works

[honest stirrup]

No clearing rewards as in no ships and no gear

There's the "hospital information" thing, used for milestone progression

[thorn tartan]

do i need to do all the stages?

[honest stirrup]

No, just do the quests by clicking on "Start investigation"

[soft raft]

(Tho you have to do all the night stages anyways over the course of the quests)

[sharp comet]

what does that mean

[thorn tartan]

where does it say "start investigation"

[plain saffron]

Bottom right, the notes

[thorn tartan]

gotcha

[honest stirrup]

check the thing right below

"Aera investigation"

[thorn tartan]

oil caps are on all the time in dark?

[soft raft]

yuh
even for intial clears

[leaden garden]

is Rafaello good for boss ships? or is she better at Mob Fleets

[soft raft]

Mob

[atomic abyss]

really good for mob
boss there are quite a few better

[leaden garden]

oh alr thanks

[eager mulch]

how good are the new ships

[onyx chasm]

Anyone got tips for the ESP stage on the event

[thorn tartan]

it's pretty easy. I think you can do with 4 or 5 level 100 ships no prob.

throw in your subs if you need to

[onyx chasm]

Well I just got hoed by the final bosses constant 100% map aoe attacks

[thorn tartan]

i cleared it first and and only used 4 ships because i thought it was the first stage......

[forest palm]

15 oil for subs is a steal

[thorn tartan]

yeah, maybe i should get them some exp, or work on some new ones. i don't have a dedicated IB sub fleet yet....

[honest stirrup]

what's your fleet and fleet avg level?

ESP is easy but bringing ships level 100 to a level 110 boss still isn't a good idea

[thorn tartan]

unless you also have 3 level 100 subs, then i think you got this

i need to start managing opsi more than this event. Only a few days left to clear all the exchange and port stuff

[onyx chasm]

Lemme check (also nice pfp)

[soft raft]

Damn that's certainly a frontline

[honest stirrup]

That doesn't seem too bad, although your frontline looks weird

[soft raft]

way too many tanks and not enough DPS

[onyx chasm]

Lemme see who i have rq

[honest stirrup]

Portland should straight up get to the front since she's almost pure tank

[zenith pebble]

14k in front sounds realistic

[onyx chasm]

I usually have the carriers and musashi do main damage

I'll show what I used last time

[soft raft]

Well 3 CA is slow af and thus has lower EVA
which means that would be more prone to getting nuked to death and thus failing the run

[honest stirrup]

Just like everyone, but having vanguard dps can clear the useless mobs that could otherwise waste main fleets' volleys

[zenith pebble]

yikes

what world you doing rn

[onyx chasm]

Yh that was my last run

[soft raft]

it's the ESP stage on event

[zenith pebble]

i see

[onyx chasm]

i got pretty far, I was like x10 away from killing the boss but the aoe it does is so damaging unicorn can barely do anything

[honest stirrup]

Start leveling up your Unicorn. She'll be useful everywhere and level 100 is underlevelled
Portland should always be in front when used
Not sure what Saratoga is for

[thorn tartan]

do you have power steering and stuff?

[onyx chasm]

I use saratoga to just spam planes which also gives me heals

[onyx chasm]

Idk what that is

[honest stirrup]

Not sure what vanguard you have available, but be aware that having 3 CA does not increase surviviability. Quite the contrary in fact

[onyx chasm]

I have these as potential vanguards

[zenith pebble]

sandy gonna carry you far

[onyx chasm]

Sandy?

[zenith pebble]

san diego

[onyx chasm]

Ah....

[honest stirrup]

Try to work on San Diego (not for ESP, but for gerneral purposes)
You can use Bremmy, but she won't be your main tank. Portland can serve as tank

[zenith pebble]

invest in her

i think fu shun is also decent? its what ive been told

[honest stirrup]

Not sure how did you manage to get SO MANY CA and so few everything else

[onyx chasm]

Should i retro sandy or nah, cuz I was planning on saving to retro helena

[atomic abyss]

both are relatively low prio retros
as good as sandy's is

for sandy, what's more important is her augment

[thorn tartan]

you can retro sandy too right?

[onyx chasm]

I'll try

[atomic abyss]

issue is sandy's retro mat costs spec cores

which a new player would much rather use for URs

[zenith pebble]

who are you working on with shipyard?

[forest palm]

is it worth grinding 40k points...kind of want to go back to 12-4

[onyx chasm]

I just finished louis and I'm farming points for anchorage and agir

[zenith pebble]

good

[onyx chasm]

Yh I've been pretty unlucky

[zenith pebble]

anchy and agir are a good start

[honest stirrup]

why 40k

[zenith pebble]

i hate grinding for those

[onyx chasm]

Yeah, does farming in higher chapters increase the chance?

[soft raft]

iirc for the Cognitive chips
or gold plates

I forget

[zenith pebble]

i believe so?

[soft raft]

unknown, but higher world = more core data per run at a max of 30 at W13

[honest stirrup]

10 gold and 200 chips
Imo, it's ridiculously low, when the previous reward is only at 28k and is 700 coredata

I have completed every quest and have done ESP 15 times with max bonus, still only at 14k

[thorn tartan]

how long is this event?

[zenith pebble]

2 weeks

[honest stirrup]

Finished the main story in about 1 hour

[thorn tartan]

oh good, i need to work on opsi.

[zenith pebble]

5 days

ok

[soft raft]

10 gold plates and 200 cog chips may seem low but to the average person grinding late-game, any source they can get is very much appreciated

[zenith pebble]

the higher the corruption number, the harder it is right? does that also apply to the siren alerts too?

[soft raft]

especially the chips if they're doing lvl 120 grind

[zenith pebble]

thanks

[onyx chasm]

Is friedrich carl considered a tank?

[soft raft]

Yes
she's a good bit better than Portland

[atomic abyss]

one of the best SR tanks not named anchorage

[onyx chasm]

I was told to replace balti with her

[atomic abyss]

i mean yeah

[zenith pebble]

anchy best girl

[soft raft]

assuming both of them are equally raised, yeah easily

[onyx chasm]

which do i wanna equip for sandy

[zenith pebble]

533

[glossy granite]

Watashi wa numba one

[zenith pebble]

personally id equpid 553 quad magnetic torp

[onyx chasm]

So do i want to bother retroing sandy

[rocky tinsel]

For someone who is new and needs gear which season is meta to focus research? 5?

[zenith pebble]

3 then 5, 3 has given me a lot of good aux

[soft raft]

Eventually yes but it's not a super high priority

Esp when her Unique Aug gives her a pretty substantial DPS buff by itself

[onyx chasm]

So with esp do I wanna wait till sandy is higher level or try smth else

[zenith pebble]

level her up first

idk who else you can retro but for me i retro her first. if you dont have her mic, focus on someone else

[glossy granite]

Do we know how many wedding skins we get a year? Or is it all just random

[onyx chasm]

I have helena and sara i can retro but idk. Also what mic

Do I want to use the event to farm her levels or nah

[zenith pebble]

you can level sandy any way you want. id go for campaign 12-4

[onyx chasm]

I'm not that far in so do I just focus on progging campaign or event

[zenith pebble]

helena is good start, idk about saratoga because i switched her out a long time ago

opsi if you havent complete it yet

[glossy granite]

Just thinking out loud, is W12 a better farm spot than W15?

[little tree]

yes

[zenith pebble]

w15 not a lot of people are on yet

but yes, the higher the level the more exp

[glossy granite]

Yea i am missing the right ships

[little tree]

Anyhting above 13 is not worth farming unless its a ship

[onyx chasm]

is opsi operation siren? What would I get from completing it?

[atomic abyss]

no one farms w15 for exp

the ships would already be lv 125

nothing TO level

[zenith pebble]

better gear than you can build

[atomic abyss]

also way worse coin to oil ratio

[onyx chasm]

Hm so I should first complete opsi then do campaign or event?

[glossy granite]

Why cant game give me Aquila man

[zenith pebble]

if you havent started,wait till next month and just finish the even first. then do campaign and when next month hits, get on opsi

belfast dude and other people can help you set up a fleet for opsi

[onyx chasm]

I have started opsi a bit but idk if im far in.

[onyx chasm]

Belfast?

[zenith pebble]

you can technically finish it in a few days. i started on it 2 days ago and cleared all the zones today

its what we call him, rn its en event or whatever his name is currently

[onyx chasm]

I need to get a decent team to farm the event cuz I wanna add sandy into the team to passively add her levels up but idk who to add apart from know portland stays ( i think)

[zenith pebble]

id replace brem

[soft raft]

Swap Bremerton and Karl around then yeet Bremerton for Sandy

[zenith pebble]

put port on the far right or just yeet her too

[onyx chasm]

Like this? Also I heard retro'd sara is pretty strong but idk

[zenith pebble]

now switch sandy and portland

youve got a good team then, and gear them up too

[carmine heath]

Is it just point accumulation awards?

[zenith pebble]

i cant find anything in the shop so i think so

[carmine heath]

im going to be doing a lot more 12-4 than dxpected i guess

[onyx chasm]

Isn't portland meant to be in the middle?

[zenith pebble]

no, far right is off tank. far left is full tank

[soft raft]

no
leftmost slot is main tank
Middle is where the squishest ship goes
right is off-tank

Currently Sandy is the weakest in the fleet so to the middle she goes

[zenith pebble]

middle is basically support

[carmine heath]

Most efficient stage is the middle building at night right?

[onyx chasm]

Good question

Also do I wanna add augments to the ships

[zenith pebble]

youre pretty low on materials so not yet

for sandy, add it. for other ships, later

[steady rain]

is "build 3 ships" daily event mission not worth it for most events?

[onyx chasm]

Which guns do I wanna equip for portland

[warm flax]

Don't if you're low on cubes

[zenith pebble]

are these the only ca main guns you have rn?

[soft raft]

that blue/black one

[onyx chasm]

Yh I'm pretty low on guns

[zenith pebble]

why that one?

[onyx chasm]

Dk how to make more apart from opsi but I haven't gotten enough to craft anything

[zenith pebble]

pr focus

focus on pr gear 3

[little tree]

pr 4

Till you max ships + 2 tenari

[zenith pebble]

wait 4 drops tenari?

[onyx chasm]

I've had it like this for the past week

[little tree]

Yes they Drop Tenari Prints

[zenith pebble]

ah didnt know that

[elfin hollow]

can i get a link to the site?

[zenith pebble]

https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/home

[little tree]

Tenari is way To pricy in gear labs and matts are better used on Wyverns

[onyx chasm]

https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/home

[zenith pebble]

i think i need 6 more before my first wyvern?

[onyx chasm]

Also what's the most efficient stage to farm for the event

[warm flax]

Is esp better than t4?

[little tree]

50 TenariPrints get you one plane

[zenith pebble]

not print, im getting it through gear lab

[little tree]

wut

[soft raft]

Wyvern isnt a research equip lol

[onyx chasm]

^

[little tree]

i ment Ttenari Brain stopped working

[zenith pebble]

once youre done with event id just go for campaign

[rapid grail]

how many weeks is this event

[rain vine]

check pins

[soft raft]

2 like usual

[zenith pebble]

2

[zenith pebble]

cant you get tenari from shop?

[rain vine]

you get 1

[sinful escarp]

but its just enough for 1 tenrai
it doesnt reset

[zenith pebble]

oh

[little tree]

enoughe for 1 i get my Tenaris' from shop and Pr4

[eternal basalt]

If you have OPSI materials you can craft as much Tenrai as you want

[zenith heron]

This is only viable if you just want to hoard tenrais as much as you want rather than the typical 2-3 pieces needed

Hell 1 is almost optimal, considering better to save resources unless you wanna min-max damage

[zenith pebble]

i want 5 wyverns

[fast frigate]

where do i spend the paper thingy from event

[whole crypt]

you don't

[fast frigate]

what is it for then

[soft raft]

Event pt milestone

[whole crypt]

milestones only

[eternal basalt]

Milestone rewards

[fast frigate]

ohhh ok

[rocky tinsel]

So am I reading comprehension challenged or something? The three difficulties of the event are 20 50 and 90, but the enemies on the first stage of twenty are level 110?

[clear harbor]

So when I auto-farm 5-4 on hard mode, only the boss node appears. When I do it manually, escort nodes appear and I have to clear some of those before the boss shows up, like I would expect. Is this normal? I have one fleet set to standby and the other to all enemies.

[soft raft]

Turn off clearing mode

[rocky tinsel]

For cleared hard mode, if you turn on auto farm, only the boss will appear

[clear harbor]

Oh. Thank you.

Is that better for oil efficiency?

[atomic abyss]

and speed in general

[upbeat wagon]

is there no event shop?

also will i lose much if i dont pull in banner?

[left cedar]

+AVI
+FP for CLs
so in general, no, nothing usefull for meta
in a Supertryhard play, yeah, thoose stats is something to consider

[onyx chasm]

Do I even bother?

[vast shuttle]

[upbeat wagon]

no

[left cedar]

low amount of cubes, not much far from may cn niver UR

[atomic abyss]

not till the next UR

[onyx chasm]

Yh that's the result of getting implacable

Do i wanna do this?

[upbeat wagon]

yes

[atomic abyss]

1x on light

so you get the cube back

[onyx chasm]

Ah i never knew that

[lavish dirge]

Is there a reason to do lv20 maps instead of 90 ones

[left cedar]

u cant do 90 and 50 ones ...

[deep cypress]

What are the best AA carries bsides Sandy, guys?

[weary gust]

Guam Laf2 Shimanto

[viscid swift]

Z52

[deep cypress]

Z52 is an AA carry?

[tame jungle]

yeah

[deep cypress]

Noice.

Thanks.

[onyx chasm]

Do i wanna replace sara with constellation?

[forest palm]

no

[atomic abyss]

1 BB 2 CV is the default comp really

[vital quest]

2 Super Heavy, 2 Type 1 AP, or 1 SH and 1 AP for musashi?

[glossy granite]

Wait there is no exchange shop after im done with the whole notes and finished all endings, what now?

[dreamy blade]

sushi oathed but not mlb

[vital quest]

Also hwat combo for hutten?

[dreamy blade]

You cant stack shells

Generally it will be black+white or white+hsfcr

[vital quest]

so always 1SH and 1AP for all BBs?

[glossy granite]

Musashi not MLB 😭

[polar lion]

Why does people hav Sara smh instead of Indep?

[carmine heath]

there are endings?

[dreamy blade]

Sara is accessible much earlier

Unless you skip shells in core data

[rapid matrix]

Sara is still pretty good too

[glossy granite]

In that story section thing ye, but seriously wtf do i do

This event is cool and all but the rewards 😅

[carmine heath]

yeah apparently its just point accumulation rewards this event

im just going to get my dr prints and get out

[dreamy blade]

Seems like the raid event so decent to farm sub xp/affinity if you need that

[viscid swift]

keep farming until you get all the milestone rewards you want

[glossy granite]

Wowww they giving us only 3 DR prints

[rapid matrix]

I'm just using it to get french girl XP to get Brest.

[whole crypt]

it's not that great for sub XP either

[glossy granite]

Yea so its better if i just stick to campaign unless i want the 2 DR prints at 40k?

[slim hinge]

How do I claim the character info? I don't see a button for it.

[polar lion]

Is the event xp/oil for subs better than 12-1?

[dreamy blade]

Bottom right

[forest palm]

that blue button with a dot couldn't be any louder

[dreamy blade]

[glossy granite]

Bro looking too much at the boobs

[slim hinge]

Thanks

[viscid swift]

settle down

[zenith heron]

[slow fox]

Cheeky I showed you my data

[dreamy blade]

doubt, it's just convenient since there's no rng involved with sub placement on the map for if they'll actually deploy

[viscid swift]

yeah I saw, thank you

here have a rudder

[rapid matrix]

I missed it numerous times myself. So you're not alone

[glossy granite]

Someone tell me why does FdG make this big difference when your a bit newer at the game 😭

You guys werent lying about FdG at all

[elfin hollow]

is it worth it george?

[viscid swift]

only for collection/tech

[weary gust]

Because she is the most easily accessible UR BB, who has not only strong shelling but a very good barrage for mobbing.

[glossy granite]

I also put in Raffaelo very recently and same thing, both are so broken for mobbing for me that its not even funny

[weary gust]

UR BBs are a significant step up from even the best SR ones.

[rapid matrix]

Personally a fan of her. Perfectly capable for 99% of everything you'll do.

[soft raft]

Tech fodder

[weary gust]

KGV is for collection only.

[glossy granite]

Especially when i went from Bismarck and Hood to Friedrich der Grosse and Raffaelo lmao

No more of those 2 garbage ships, tho they did serve me

[deep cypress]

Would Scylla be a good option? Mainly for W13.

[weary gust]

Scylla is okay for w13

[glossy granite]

Is Scylla a dps?

[weary gust]

Dps/anti air mix.

[deep cypress]

So, Scylla in the mob fleet and Sandy in the boss fleet should be enough, right?

[weary gust]

You'd want all the other ships in your vanguard to have at least decent AA too though.

[vale cradle]

is implacable worth mlb with bullins

[weary gust]

Depends on what you currently have*

[vale cradle]

Could you elaborate

[weary gust]

A UR BB at mlb is usually first priority for campaign progression.

Implacable is more specialized for boss fleets.

[sweet schooner]

Did 1 pull and got Franklin is she a new character and is she decent?

[vale cradle]

i have have musashi and rafaello at mlb

[weary gust]

Yeah then go ahead with implacable

[vale cradle]

alr then, thx

[glossy granite]

Why god did i had to miss musashi

[zenith pebble]

manjunn said no

[weary gust]

Is Musashi not in perma pool yet?

[zenith pebble]

no

[glossy granite]

Nope sadly

[rapid matrix]

What are you expecting her to do?
If you're just going through events and reruns she'll do everything she needs.
They aren't difficult usually.

[deep cypress]

My vanguard would be Anchorage + Eldridge + Sandy for the boss fleet and Roon Muse + Z52 + Scylla for the mob fleet, probably.

[glossy granite]

Vanguard is next i believe for perma and then Musashi

[weary gust]

That'll be more than enough.

[deep cypress]

Noice. Thank you, man. I'll try when I finish farming the event.

[blissful hamlet]

how does this event works? is this coalition event?

[atomic abyss]

needs more testing, but probably no more than ok

[blissful hamlet]

should I clear all stage or just the highest?

[zenith pebble]

admin plz hug me

[blissful hamlet]

kid named what

[timid oar]

Is there any other way of getting quick finishers besides daily and weekly?

[fleet shard]

What are the benefits to being in a guild with many active members

[hushed sorrel]

you can do 2 hard guild operations which gives you more guild coins

[sinful escarp]

faster guild ops

and with many players chances are they have maxed guild tech

[hushed sorrel]

but its hard limited at 2 guild ops per month . you may not benefit

[sinful escarp]

its a huge benefit tbh, compared to the rewards the other guild ops give

[weary gust]

The highest difficulty guild op gives 18 gold plates on completion.

[stone sluice]

If I have Nahkimov, Implacable and Indomitable (all oathed), are they better than Illustrious and illustrious muse for the support fleet so I can get rid of these?

[weary gust]

• a good amount of purple plates

[hushed sorrel]

i said that since i think that st4r already has a guild, so i dont know if a more active one is for that player even important (at the moment)

[weary gust]

Yes, they would be better than the lustys

[stark quiver]

Sup gph

[sinful escarp]

if that guild can complete the 2 hard guild ops with no problems its fine, if not then better look for another guild

[fleet shard]

I'm the only active player

[turbid marsh]

yes, then you gonna realize later on that the chinese +rumey are better than the three you mentioned for support fleet XD

[stark quiver]

Time to find a new guild

[zenith pebble]

make a guild and ill join

[sinful escarp]

guilds are server locked btw

[hushed sorrel]

there are a lot of guild searching. you will find a new one fast. joining a existing one is way better since you gain the guild coins faster then the guild can do the upgrades

[stone sluice]

Hwah Jah and Fritz? I have both

[dreamy blade]

Hwah/Chen hai

[tropic tusk]

The perma banner count won't exceed 400 right?

[hushed sorrel]

the ur pity counter wont exceed 400. but once you claim a ur you will start anew

[dreamy blade]

If you don't claim a ship you mean? No

[sinful escarp]

just claim the pity UR and then build up more pity

[dreamy blade]

Can't hold onto pity to insta mlb vanny when she gets permad

[turbid marsh]

yes, hawh jah + chenhai + fritz XD

[hushed sorrel]

please try to stay at gameplay questions

[turbid marsh]

i typically dont use nakh in support fleet because i use her quite often in meta boss.

[stone sluice]

Is chen hai good for support fleet?

[dreamy blade]

But needs retro

[turbid marsh]

very

[weary gust]

So for this event to complete all the notes ... are we expected to run like 300 different instances of special configurations of the bonuses on each map or do these things overlap because there's 9 pages of notes and that's a lot of permutations ...

[boreal wagon]

they overlap (in certain aspects) and you dont need to figureout permutations yourself just click on notes -> start investigation

[weary gust]

I know I don't need to figure them out but I'm not liking the idea of 9x~5x3 times of doing that manual starting of each run.

[boreal wagon]

#game-feedback

[forest palm]

I just did all the first tabs missions, it basically cleaned up everything else, and I had to do minimal clean up after the fact, this event type is incredibly tedious though

[viscid swift]

I only had about 11k in milstones by the time I finished all the missions and I wasn't really trying to opimize them

[forest palm]

yup same

[sinful escarp]

yeah and the auto sortie of subs is annoying, even though i turned them off they still auto-sortie

[weary gust]

Okay so there is significant overlap then.

[forest palm]

I just didn't include subs

[sinful escarp]

i put in the fleet i was leveling and the subs were supposed to be back up incase they couldnt handle it

[storm heron]

[eager mulch]

:larspat:

[turbid shell]

is there any daily quest to clear on event map for this event?

[weary gust]

Yes. Go to event area and in bottom right is "Missions" tab.

[candid meteor]

how long until implacable perm? around 9 months?

[viscid swift]

about a year give or take

[clear harbor]

I am patient

[last zenith]

Long time.

[cobalt gate]

so for the debuffs for doing medical center which combination is the best?

[upbeat wagon]

Is it wise to spend core data on a plum petal poetry for yat sen

[last zenith]

Augment? If u need her for a fleet absolutely

[abstract ore]

Is miller good, i obtain all banner ship except her, idk if she worth it or not

[viscid swift]

no

[last zenith]

Ehhh better options

[viscid swift]

if you haven't got anything else to spend it on sure I guess

[upbeat wagon]

I have 3 white shells and 2 black shells and indep, would i need anything else from that shop

[sweet delta]

I'd rather buy a tenth oxytorp

[viscid swift]

Independence, cog chips and arrays, etc

[red ingot]

iam a new player and i was asking my self whats the best option to farm a level in the main campaign clear the level or kill the boss fleet ?

[upbeat wagon]

At which chapter in campaign should I look forward to retrofitting a san diego?

[soft raft]

go to the boss asap
dont bother manually clearing the entire map every sortie

[red ingot]

thx :D

[sweet delta]

Not by chapter. Depends on your fleet(s)

[zenith pebble]

is the rare twin 550 on anchy useful?

[weary gust]

Faster reloading torps are better for Anchorage to proc her ability. Torp damage doesn't matter.

[zenith pebble]

whys that?

[weary gust]

Because her torp damage is low anyways and her defensive ability is the entire reason to use her.

[sharp igloo]

Should I collect Kronshtadt even if I have Guam?

[soft raft]

they kinda do different things
tho have you already got Shinano yet (And MLB her)

[sharp igloo]

Already have MLB Shinano

[soft raft]

then sure you can get her for collection if you want

[zenith pebble]

idk if any of the perma pool ur are as good as the others besides shinano

[sharp socket]

how does event work

[pale niche]

Is there a daily build 3 ships mission for this event?

[weary gust]

You click "Note" in the bottom right then "Start Investigation" manually 300 times after exiting out of individual battles and having to randomly reselect your fleet.

So "work" is a stretch.

[whole stump]

does pvp lower mood?

[weary gust]

No

[eager mulch]

lowers the player’s mood

[clear harbor]

What's the difference between War Archives and Permenent events?

[weary gust]

There are no permanent events, so that's one difference.

If you mean the mini events that you can put on those are just little mission completions.

War archives are the event stages and you can get most ship drops/map drop gear from them. There is no store to go along with them.

[clear harbor]

Ah, yeah, it's the mini events I was referring to.

Are there any War Archives worth farming for a new player? I have 60 data keys now.

I figure at this point it's use it or lose it.

[weary gust]

It is under the tab "Permanent Events" but they aren't really "Events" as we normally think of them and they are only "permanent" insofar as you can start them whenever ... but you can only run them once.
War Archives worth doing are limited to Divergent Chessboard for kms ships and the idol ones for cosmic kicks/gear skins.

[clear harbor]

Cool. Thanks

[weary gust]

Other than that it's just story unlocks if you care about those.

[thorn tartan]

what arbiter armor is this month?

[zenith pebble]

heavy?

its bb

[thorn tartan]

i know it rotates every month but i can't remember back a month

[stark quiver]

heavy
just remember
jan is light
feb is med
march is heavy
and it just repeats

[zenith pebble]

damn

[whole stump]

kinda confused w this new event do i just jump in and farm the highest stage i can? or

[sweet delta]

Do the Notes

[normal cedar]

is franklin mob oriented or boss?

[sinful escarp]

Notes> start sortie> do 3x> go back to notes

[astral oar]

guys whats the best place to farm in this event

[viscid swift]

any map from T1-T4 in Dark mode if you can

after you've completed all the notes

[honest sequoia]

What about esp??

[knotty dome]

i'm a little overwhelmed by the notes. is there an order i do this in?

[viscid swift]

no specific order needed, I just did them in the order they're listed

they basically all boil down to clear x map 3 times with these specific debuffs

[knotty dome]

so i just start with the first location info, all the way down, move to character info, etc?

[viscid swift]

that's what I did yeah

[knotty dome]

ok thank you

[astral oar]

do they behave as normal sorties? im a bit winded with this boss run setup

[viscid swift]

have you played in a raid event before?

[astral oar]

no

[viscid swift]

you basically just fight one boss battle over and over, HP is reset after each fight

[honest sequoia]

Should i farm Night stage esp for event currency?
or just T4 night stage

[viscid swift]

just T4, I may not bother with SP at all beyond the missions

[hallow mountain]

Is there a guide for the current event?

Got no idea how it goes

[rain vine]

just follow what the notes tell you to do, then check pins for the farm spots

[knotty dome]

pin says all night stages SS 16 oil cap but in game it says 15?

[viscid swift]

Do all of these missions(tap investigate and it'll take you to the map and set up the debuffs you need to run) and then farm t1-t4(doesn't matter which one) on dark mode until you get all the milestone rewards you want

[viscid swift]

there may or may not have been a lot of copy-pastaing with this FAQ

that or it was just a simple misclick

[zenith pebble]

itll take 3 months to get 1 wyvern

max

[near cargo]

How long is Santa Fe build time? I can't open the datamine docs right now

[viscid swift]

she's a cleveland so should be 1:25:00

[forest bison]

Hi is these 2 fleet ok for opsi?

[viscid swift]

not brilliant by any mertic truth be told

you have some good ships but some picks leave a lot to be desired

[forest bison]

So what would need replaced

[viscid swift]

Venetto and Joffre would be the 2 main ones

though I don't know what you have to work with

[forest bison]

To which?i have most of the ships

[stark quiver]

You don’t need to even set them up lol
Just click
Investigate and set 3x run

[viscid swift]

what is most exactly?

[forest bison]

Wait give me a min

[forest bison]

Some are not upgrade yet

[stark quiver]

also hi gph, what event lvl stage should i farm for pts

and how are the xp gain compared to 12-1

[forest bison]

12-4

13 and above give more exp but dmg shreading

[wind hazel]

💀

[stark quiver]

i meant event stage sry

[viscid swift]

BB Boss: Musashi, Vanguard, Soyuz, Agir, Helena, ????
CV Boss: Shinano, Hakuryu, Implacable, Eldridge, Kazagumo, ???
Mob: Independence, Unicorn, UvH, ????, ????, ????

[forest bison]

I mean what should i replace vv and joffre with?

[viscid swift]

I'm saying those should be your fleets

[forest bison]

Ah i see

[eager mulch]

what’s franklin build time

[viscid swift]

probably the same as Essex and the rest of her class

[eager mulch]

do any other ships have 4:25 build timer

[viscid swift]

plenty

[eager mulch]

like who

[viscid swift]

well a certain someone

[forest bison]

Btw eagle can i replace joffre with ark royal first?i dont have sny better

[eager mulch]

wow that’s a lot of ships with 4:25

[wind hazel]

even amagi

[eager mulch]

Essex class really has 4:25 as well?

[viscid swift]

just use Enterprise

[viscid swift]

apparently

[eager mulch]

insane, i didn’t know that

[timid beacon]

any Essex- or Yorktown-class pairs well with Yorktown II's skills. so those would be good replacements for Joffre

[stark quiver]

[forest bison]

My esseg did not upgrade at all rip

[timid beacon]

any Essex-class. Essex, Ticonderoga, Shangri-La, etc... new Franklin as well

[eager mulch]

yt2

[viscid swift]

there's a 125 Enterprise literally right there

[forest bison]

All of them did not upgrade,maybe next time ig

[viscid swift]

also what do you mean by "did not uprade", are you looking at fleet power

[forest bison]

Wait so just replace with enty?

[timid beacon]

Enterprise is a good option then, yeah. Yorktown II's skills benefit any Yorktown-class too, which Enty is

[forest bison]

My ship are either low lvl or no equipment or lvl 1 skill

[stark quiver]

time to upgrade skills

[forest bison]

F,guess i ganna wait untill skill class speed up

[eager mulch]

i knew amagi-chan was 4:25, so i had a hunch amagi was 4:25, but i didn’t know the essex class was also 4:25

[zenith pebble]

when will we get another level cap

[eager mulch]

:crystalball:

[forest palm]

when the devs feel like it

[zenith pebble]

my sandy is already maxed out

this event so weird

[storm heron]

no 5000 oil shop

is this meowficcer good enough

wrong server lol, this is azur lane

[half plover]

my bad

[viscid swift]

I would keep it

[storm heron]

it felt impossible to get all 3 destiny, soulful, and flame

[ivory pawn]

It might as well be. Don't let perfection be the enemy of really, really good.

[sweet delta]

Feel is not reality

[stark quiver]

uh yea

[narrow arch]

I'm at world 7 and I already have like, a good amount of progress into ST. Louis, about what world should I actually focus on PR ships

[stark quiver]

like 12 tbh
with a non full focus starting at world 9

[narrow arch]

I'm almost done with her first xp thing and I have all of the research things done for her

Because I'm using 3 eagle ships

[sinful escarp]

keep doing campaign then, push to w12

[narrow arch]

Oakly doke

[sinful escarp]

because of the oil cap after clearing

[stark quiver]

also uhh any ideas?

[sinful nymph]

Anyone knows what we do with these?

[stark quiver]

milestone rewards in the events tab

[grave ivy]

Thoughts on chapayev for a mob fleet?

[stone sluice]

What you get from completing the notes?

[carmine heath]

the notes are dorm decorations(?) and the character info is event currency

[foggy chasm]

is the event give good exp/oil thing

and is it farm until 40k or 30k ?

[stone sluice]

So I shouldn’t complete the notes if I reached 32k points (I just wanted the gold plates) and I do not care bout decorations?

[normal cedar]

is this a glitch? tried restarting the game but it still doesnt seem to show it as clear...

[eager marsh]

stop at red or blue?

[stone sluice]

I suggest blue.

[zenith pebble]

go all the way in

[hushed dawn]

What's the early consensus for Franklin? Good? Bad? Usable?

[stark quiver]

40k

[nova hawk]

Just returned to the game today, the event shop's event has expired right?

[robust jackal]

Yes, it was Implacables' re run event

[nova hawk]

Ah i see, thanks mate. A lot of UI has changed so I got confused

[strong tartan]

you can change to the old ui in the settings if you want to

[charred pollen]

Are the medical center stages all the same in any of the times of day?

[grizzled sundial]

How important is to have 3 strong subs ? Or i can live without it ?

[boreal temple]

I've yet to use my subs I'll probably need them at w15 but I cleared w14 just fine without em

[atomic abyss]

They significantly lower the bar needed in your main fleet when clearing difficult content like H.Arbiter, W14, W15

[twilit sage]

does soul forming give better drops? blueprint wise

[sinful escarp]

supposedly, but i never got any luck with that one

[twilit sage]

whats the difference between this and cube analysis

[polar lion]

This one is faster. Only 30m. The cube one is 1hr

[twilit sage]

so esscially i used 8000 gold for 30 mins of time

what a scam wtf LMAOOO

[polar lion]

Well coins is so ez to get so I dun mind at all. In fact I would take it everytime coz I want faster refresh to hunt for Qs

[wind hazel]

but this one sucks

[sinful escarp]

i go for rigging analysis if i dont get face researches
i dont touch cube researches

[wind hazel]

0.5h face rainbow very good
0.5h Q very good
0.5h soul sucks

[polar lion]

I dun even touch face unless absolutely no faster/good Qs or Es in selection. Coz we gonna end up with surplus bps anyway

[twilit sage]

me trying to find kera's face everytime but she doesnt show up for straight 4 days

[rapid matrix]

Won't that massively vary on context?
Everything is bad if it's level 1 with level 1 equipment on a map with level 100 enemies.
Everything is good at level 100 with level 10 equipment on a map with level 10 enemies.
And everything is usable because there's always levels to use them on.
So...

[atomic abyss]

Yes, but your argument is quite a silly one
Because it would mean all ships are good

Or no ships are good at all

Which is ultimately, pointless advice for someone who is asking that question

[rapid matrix]

But it's true...
It's all going to depend on context

[atomic abyss]

When people ask if something is good, they mean in relation to others

Yes I'm not saying it's dependent on context

But such an answer literally explains nothing

There are ships that are just good in all content

And there are ships that have niches in the hardest content

[rapid matrix]

Well the question is open ended.
It'd be better to ask "are they good at later levels on combination with XYZ" or something

[atomic abyss]

The general understanding here is

[honest sequoia]

Bro its not that deep 😭

[atomic abyss]

If they ask if something is good
It means, are they relevant in the meta in any way

[rapid matrix]

Exactly... That's my point

[atomic abyss]

You're the one making it deep tho

[wind hazel]

the irony 💀

[honest sequoia]

True

vro hes just asking if franklin is good or no
thats all
what can possibly be the hidden context behind it

[atomic abyss]

Idk why you're making a question that could be a simple yes or no into this

[honest sequoia]

it aint allat vro 😭
bros making it so deep

[rapid matrix]

Then yes. The answer is yes.

[honest sequoia]

Thats all we need to hear 😭

[atomic abyss]

Simply put, she's Essex but better
Amongst the better gold CVs, but nothing special

[cobalt rapids]

Prob as good as the avg enty

[honest sequoia]

Or pray theres a enty retrofit with 100% lucky E proc

[cobalt rapids]

Ill pray

[honest sequoia]

she has been the face of the game for so long
atleast give her a retrofit or an Enty II

[cobalt rapids]

We dont do

[hushed dawn]

"Better than Essex" is all I need to put her in my American OpSi fleet.

[wind hazel]

this guy faction fleet!!

[hollow gust]

Americain Faction fleets barley use enterprise, why would it want some mid gold CV

[rapid matrix]

At the very least I can guarantee she'll be good in this event because this event requires literally no fleet building skills whatsoever because it's crap with no unique mechanics lol.

[hollow gust]

[hushed dawn]

My faction fleets can one shot Arbiters.

[rapid matrix]

True though. Bad event is bad. It makes everything look good

[cobalt rapids]

What if i dont have a d30 kear

[hollow gust]

mid ships are mid, op ships are op. its not that hard. why compicate it

[atomic abyss]

I'm just going to say this upfront
But you may want to keep such advice to #al-general instead

Unless made clear before hand, if people here ask a question, the general assumption is, it's from purely a meta perspective

[rapid matrix]

K

[atomic abyss]

I'm not saying your viewpoint is wrong

But the goal here is to give best possible help

Not what's "good enough"

[worn quest]

which ur should i exchange?

[sharp socket]

shinano > uvh > NJ > rest

[inland shoal]

Depends a bit on what you aleady have as well

[worn quest]

i have implacable, fritz, z52, raff, yk2,

[sharp socket]

5 URs before perma, gj on self restraint
shinano still good to get here

[worn quest]

ok thx, who should i mlb first, i already have implacable and fritz mlb

[inland shoal]

Hmm depends on your goals, for campaign I think Raffaello, otherwise I'd probably do Shinano, not sure when I'd do Z52
Also keep in mind that technically you can MLB Shinano with dupes from perma but that's gonna take ages

[worn quest]

would i run raffaello and unicorn in the same fleet?

[boreal wagon]

<@&460646206851252224> either scam or spam ^

bernkasteel_#0 got banned.

[verbal thistle]

monka

[frank pulsar]

if you need to then do it
nothing wrong with running them tgt

[worn quest]

do they fulfill the same role?

or is later campaign too difficult that i need both?

[frank pulsar]

afaik raffaello is just a dps with defensive skills, she does not replace a dedicated healee

[worn quest]

oh ok ty

[frank pulsar]

she is a top pick for campaign yea

[vestal yoke]

how do I play this event? should I just farm the highest stage I can clear or?

[fickle parcel]

Haii~ this has probably been asked 40 times, but does T4 grind give more event points, or EX without the daily token?

[vale spindle]

check pins

[vale spindle]

check pins

[sinful escarp]

who are the best to use to 1:1 ESP?

[fickle parcel]

tyty Sam!

[vestal yoke]

this sucks I can't even clear ESP once

also should I buy one of these for medals:Takao,Atago,minneapolis,Baltimore,Zara,Pola

[atomic abyss]

Nope

None of the medal shop CAs are particularly useful

[eternal basalt]

Clear investigations first

[vestal yoke]

is murmansk good?

[atomic abyss]

Nope
She's pretty much only good as a meme

[carmine heath]

[elfin hollow]

Which of these can I send into retirement?

[eternal basalt]

None, you have 60 slots

[sinful escarp]

might as well use those implac dupes rn
1 more slot free

[hollow gust]

whats santa fe build timer

im 280 cubes in and still nads :(

[atomic abyss]

Shdnt she be 1:25 like the other Clevelands

I think it's 1:25 at least
Can't remember

[hollow gust]

fuuck forgot shes a CL

[atomic abyss]

Might be confusing Cleve timer with bel

[hollow gust]

yeah the clevelads are 1:25

[elfin hollow]

Is there anything worth buying here? Because I have no idea

[hollow gust]

coggies and arrays. and there is a good sub with other shipsgood tech

[still thorn]

Where is the new event shop?

[hollow gust]

I'm so dead inside , 300 cubes for Santa Fe lmao

[hollow gust]

No event shop , it's a all in milestone and notes

[twin isle]

Will we get a new UR in close time or nah ? I will decide to spend cubes on this event or skip this banner depends on how close we are to a new or rerun UR event

[hollow gust]

Give or take 2 months

[hollow gust]

None of these ships are super good , do your daily 3s and keep above 400 cubes and you will be fine

[twin isle]

Thanks

[hollow gust]

They are good tech but not worth missing a UR over

[eternal basalt]

May, UR x2 (1 shop, 1 build)

+BizII rerun after

[frank pulsar]

is it just me or are the event maps difficult this time? i couldnt clear with a regular farming fleet

[twin isle]

Ngl Shackled Light event cost dearly to me. I got Raffaello around 167 pity and it halved my resources.

[twin isle]

Yeah I have to be careful ig

[eternal basalt]

What are you trying to do... level 90 with oilcap seems easy to me, can even use Franklin lvl 1 since dying doesn't matter since one fight

[eternal basalt]

Note there will also be an April event (not the Aprils Fool)

[frank pulsar]

so its just me then
ill give better gear and see if it fixes it

[cobalt rapids]

I just pressed advice

[twin isle]

Hope I can farm enough

[eternal basalt]

Just do the event for 5 cubes and other stuff

[twin isle]

Game was generous a few months ago, sending us cubes, gems, now only gold and oil

[frank pulsar]

gold and oil is the standard

[hollow gust]

The event is easier this time around, only lvl90 and your fleet only has to fight boss

[eternal basalt]

Gems from event is ONLY CNY, wont happen again till next year

[twin isle]

Sad

[cobalt rapids]

I mean considering pull currency is not tied to gems

[sharp socket]

does any of the event stages have good xp

[whole crypt]

no

feels painful to run this up to 40k

[eternal basalt]

We got 14 days, atleast it's easy to get points

[whole crypt]

it's not like the event has daily bonuses I just want to be done with it and move on

[eternal basalt]

It has a daily 300 bonus points on ESP

[whole crypt]

guess that means I can stop at around 35k

tokens for bonus drops is just plates and prints like raid?

[plain grove]

event stage can grind affinity?

[ancient condor]

im all over the place idk what to do

[quartz junco]

Sorry i cant find the link in the pins. Does someone have the Newbie guide?

[quartz junco]

Oh that makes it so much easier. Much love

[eternal basalt]

Not sure what you refer to

[sharp socket]

only event milestones, its 32k for gold plates and 40k for chips

[whole crypt]

yes so I stop at 35k and do dailies to 40k

[whole crypt]

whatever this is

[vestal yoke]

what type of ammo should javelin have?

[tame jungle]

a good gun for the situation, afaik javelin does not have an ammo type requirement

[sinful escarp]

like with most ships

equipment are more for the content they are fighting

[whole crypt]

best DD guns are by and large ammo agnostic regardless of target

Javelin just wants a good DPS gun https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/equipment#dd_guns

[forest palm]

more lke she wants a good bench

[cerulean musk]

which is the easiest 4?

[forest palm]

it's not about "easiest" you can take which ever 4 you want, but you choose based on the note mission

[eager marsh]

first 4 are the easiest

[cerulean musk]

[woven star]

Seems new event ships not so well unless someone decide to make burning fleets with Franklin and J'Dark. Interesting how many self burning ships in the game?

[forest palm]

they're tech collection

well except Miller

[woven star]

I'm fully depleted from last pull event. 203 pulls and 0 Implacable. so skip it for now even for tech

[fleet urchin]

Is it possible to bypass the auto-repeat process directly?

in the event

[eternal basalt]

That's what gives you 300 points, that's it far I can tell

[eternal basalt]

What? You want to... bypass auto? Don't... turn it on?

[eager marsh]

maybe he meant to intercept the auto

[fleet urchin]

no i mean... there is a 3-4 second delay whihe auto repeating

I want to skip it directly while auto-repeating

[honest sequoia]

does anyone know how good rossiya is with her unique augment??

[eternal basalt]

No, you can't

[eager marsh]

does ning/ping hai combo need yat sen?

[atomic abyss]

an improvement, but you're not getting the 100% barrage proc realistically

[atomic abyss]

if they dont have yat, they're basically going to fall to a snowflake

[honest sequoia]

yea ik its not 100% proc but the crit buff tho

[atomic abyss]

yes, but are you using her with other russian ships tho

[honest sequoia]

Rossiya flag with Volga

[atomic abyss]

10% CR and 20%CD really isnt much

[honest sequoia]

does it stack with shell tho

[atomic abyss]

it's about a 15% increase in DPS

[pale niche]

Is this opsi anti-light fleet good?

[atomic abyss]

without impla, yeah i guess that's pretty decent yeah

[pale niche]

Impla is with Amagi/Haku

[undone plover]

Could replace AvP with enty and add a slow in vanguard like eldridge instead

[atomic abyss]

i wouldnt

at that point i would rather throw eld on the amagi team

[undone plover]

[atomic abyss]

light armour bosses move way more than heavy armour bosses

[undone plover]

But rockets also land easier I think

[atomic abyss]

they do

i personally wouldnt recommend swapping to enty unless the boss is absolutely not moving much

that or, we get another UR essex

[pale niche]

How tight is timing with AvP?

[atomic abyss]

+- 0.2s

so what you have for york2 is fine

kears though

[undone plover]

Should radar kear tho

U want her to hit shells before the CV planes

[nocturne glade]

Is the main important part about implac gear just syncing?

[atomic abyss]

syncing for the right boss

i.e 2 fighters for med/light
2 tb for heavy

so your remaining slot is what's used for syncing

[nocturne glade]

gotcha, ty!

[pale niche]

Even if I do plane still goes first because -30% load time on first airstrike

[north wharf]

Was C5 the most efficient to clear in OpSi or just go C6?

[atomic abyss]

c3 or c5
never c6

[north wharf]

Okay gotcha, thanks

[eternal basalt]

Remember to keep atleast 200AP for monday's one-day raid mission chance

[north wharf]

Not familiar with this, what is it?

[atomic abyss]

stronghold

[north wharf]

Strongholds spawn on a weekly basis? Noted

[undone plover]

2 on month start and 1 every monday after

[quasi delta]

Is there a limit on how many ships i can use the catch up feature or can i get all 5 of them?

[eager marsh]

just one?

[dreamy blade]

each DR has their own, the PRs share

[woven star]

PR 300 for all, DR 150 each

[quasi delta]

ok, so 150 each dr and 300 shared on the others

[normal cedar]

How do you get the remaining bps after 150/300 then? I don't think you can buy using coins for all generations yet? (gen 7)

[atomic abyss]

you do research

which is how you get research BPs normally

[normal cedar]

oh so basically non catch up research, which drops randomly

[cold flint]

Is there an ending for Washy? So that I won’t have to waste my time

In the event ofc

[sinful escarp]

check the notes
all endings are there

[cold flint]

What notes? In the pin?

[sinful escarp]

ingame

[cold flint]

Okay, event note?

[ivory pawn]

He’s referring to the below page.

[sinful elk]

Chat who should i put this on

[wind hazel]

BB or vanguard with strong AA

[sinful elk]

Hmm is it better on Alsace or Sandy

[atomic abyss]

well it depends

do you have other UR AA, are you clearing a plane hell?

[jaunty vault]

does twin76 give hit

[atomic abyss]

it does, more than STAAG actually

15 vs 10

[late flame]

[glossy granite]

How many fleets you build for siren? 3 or 4?

[atomic abyss]

3 first
1 mob, 1 BB, 1 CV

[jaunty vault]

[glossy granite]

Damn, looks like i am still going to put Siren on hold

[jaunty vault]

time to build 9 of them

[atomic abyss]

if you cant afford 3, then just do 1 mob 1 boss

[jaunty vault]

if you cannot do that, do 1

[glossy granite]

I can only do 2 but wont those be half assed runs lol

[atomic abyss]

better than no runs

[jaunty vault]

[humble tapir]

theres no event shop for this event right?

[atomic abyss]

yes there is no shop

[storm heron]

[glossy granite]

Do i just make a thread for a 2 fleet siren setup?

Cuz not touching this def hinders my progress

[humble tapir]

so the thingies obtained can only be used in milestone?

[plain saffron]

yes

[humble tapir]

aw oke

[glossy granite]

yo

[eternal basalt]

Yes, but monday is last day of the month, so tuesday its gone

[deep cypress]

Man, you need to level up your ships...

[glossy granite]

Dosent take that much time

And its not like im always looking for an immiediate setup that i can use instantly

Could be something to lvl up or work up to for a week or 2 maybe even longer

[normal cedar]

should I continue using Pennsylvania beyond lvl 100? Till what world can you use her

My main rn is enterprise, unicorn and her

[atomic abyss]

w12, even w13

the issue is always, do you have anything better

[normal cedar]

Idk if the elite and sr ships I have are better, my main concern was since she is only a rare

So I thought her stats might be low compared

[plain saffron]

also looks at the skills

[atomic abyss]

the issue is a lot of ships have ass skills

stats dont always correlate to rarity, neither do skills

[normal cedar]

Oh I see, thanks then!

[atomic abyss]

example

admittedly, mikasa is a rather extreme exception

[normal cedar]

What does the luck stat do? I never noticed it till now

[atomic abyss]

in short, it affects accuracy and evasion

[frank pulsar]

and crit
but lck isn't as important for us players compared to enemy lck

[normal cedar]

Is there any resource for explanation of these stat terms? I can't seem to find anywhere

[eternal basalt]

Ingame click any

[plain saffron]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Damage_Calculations

[frank pulsar]

damage calculations in wiki i guess

~~ig im 🐌 ~~

[normal cedar]

Perfect, thanks again

[hazy kiln]

There seems to be almost no guides/starter info in the pins. Is there something I'm not seeing?

[weary gust]

/guides I never remember bot commands

[ivory pawn]

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

[atomic abyss]

because the pins would be too clustered, so we tie them to commands

[hazy kiln]

I figured, was here a couple years ago and remember there being lots of info. Thank you!

[ivory pawn]

It’s the right command, it’s just buried behind the Guide Compendium link.

[wispy geyser]

i need new pc emulator

mumuplayer 12 just fucked up and i lost it pernamently (reinstal didn't worked)

[tropic tusk]

LD player

[wispy geyser]

emulators that are already disqualified (bluestacks-conflict with steelseries driver, memu-tragic performance and many crashes and ldplayer-payment are stealing money and not getting items)

[tropic tusk]

y not pay with ur phone

[fiery swan]

How good is this thing and what does it do

[worldly pewter]

currently it is only equipped on the most useless ship halford

[fiery swan]

It says "Prototype Bearcat F8F (Float)"

Oh it does look useless

[worldly pewter]

no the issue is with the ship

[atomic abyss]

it's a good gear on a bad ship

[fiery swan]

Aren't all PRs good-ish?

[wispy geyser]

any others working emulators left for me?

[turbid marsh]

i think usable is the right word

[ivory pawn]

She could be, if she wasn’t bugged such that her planes usually miss the enemy.

[atomic abyss]

halford is that one exception

[fiery swan]

Oh so it's actually a bug

[forest palm]

even without the bug Hal is just disappointing

middling kit is one thing, but she's forced to use a Sea Plane which really does fuck all

[fiery swan]

I'm currently grinding this checks notes uh Russian catgirl and I'm 39% through on the second exp grind (which will probably be accelerated since I'm affinity grinding Raff and Aquila) but I have like 27 prints because her face research is so rare even at prio, should I keep going?

[slender turtle]

I think one of the submarines can use it too no?

[forest palm]

Nyak is worthwhile investment

[ivory pawn]

Do you have a PR and DR ship to coin currently? Then sure, sounds like a good idea since you’re trying to grind ships that contribute anyways.

[forest palm]

ya I-13 can use it, but no one uses I-13

[ivory pawn]

Sure, she’ll just be sitting in your dock for a long while, but you’ll have her when you have the prints.

[fiery swan]

Currently not coining anyone because there is nobody left to coin

[ivory pawn]

That works too!

[fiery swan]

I skipped most of pr2 but I'm so tempted to go for Bocchi Kear after I finish Nakhimov

[worldly pewter]

i m also experiencing the lack of cat face research
