[hoary relic]

not in gear lab, i have 25 pieces of it

[cobalt rapids]

wouldnt craft it at all like i said

[sharp socket]

the gold SAP gun is bad

[hoary relic]

[cobalt rapids]

its the fdg gun

[keen sable]

Considering you can get 2 free per year it's not. The problem is YOU want more per year in which case yes you need to pay for it.

[rapid grail]

no aegir fs5 yet?

[hoary relic]

why u use the gold one instead of raff's gun?

and SAP is only for med

[sharp socket]

so dont craft it

[hoary relic]

craft what?

[cobalt rapids]

again 406mm skc/34 is fdg gun not sap gun

[hoary relic]

bro im talking about the 406mm ck/34 which use HE

[keen sable]

Mid since you aren't on 14-3

[sharp socket]

next time add the number of barrels

[hoary relic]

[cobalt rapids]

theres only 1 406mm skc 34

[sharp socket]

that thing is twin 406, ive never heard it be called 406 skc34

twin 406 is ok gun for mobbing

[rapid grail]

fdg gun is aight but it is quite hard to justify its cost atm
when 410mm and 457 exist and are just as good, if not better

[keen sable]

There's no such thing either way

[hoary relic]

457mm is expensive as hell for newbies like me lol

[wind hazel]

just use free mk6

[keen sable]

Protocore harder

[cobalt rapids]

if u need HE use mk6
if u need AP use the 20s ap guns or raf gun on med
if u campaign early use mk6
if ure campaign lategame then u use either 457 or champy gun if poor
no use case for fdg gun

[keen sable]

Hood

[sharp socket]

the other twin 406 is call mk4 just for future reference

[hoary relic]

aint that fdg gun can be used for spamming barrage like hood or raff?

[white agate]

i use fdg gun for opsi mob and 12-1 12-4 tech farm

[sharp socket]

fdg gun, aka twin 406 is mobbing gun, minor upgrade over twin 410

[keen sable]

It's fine to craft and use.

[cobalt rapids]

just use a twin 410 if u wanna "spam" barrage

[polar lion]

me using FDG gun and twin 410 farming 12-1

[hoary relic]

[sharp socket]

if you have it available to craft from bps for whatever reason sure

[cobalt rapids]

you can use it
its just not worth its cost
you can also use the purple twin 410mm and get the same result

[keen sable]

There is no cost and you won't get the same result

[hoary relic]

fdg gun is slightly faster right?

[white agate]

i had like 4 sitting in my inventory from 2021

[cobalt rapids]

what is the different result

[hoary relic]

u sure put it in ur depot since u got 457mm

[white agate]

i got all the non ur bb gun in decent number

[wind hazel]

oh yeah? show me mk4

[cobalt rapids]

is the different result the 0.4s rld time ?

[polar lion]

What is the mk4 again?

[keen sable]

It's clearly better in every way for slightly more parts and coins which is essentially a joke. Hit 12-4 once and you've made up the difference.

[hoary relic]

fdg gun

[white agate]

i have it in craft, i think should be able to craft 3? they are the new musashi champaign guns right?

[polar lion]

Oh

[sharp socket]

mk4 is not fdg gun

[hoary relic]

so what is it then?

[sharp socket]

mk4 is the precursor to 457

[hoary relic]

[cobalt rapids]

this is some nice copium that u will notice any difference farming w12 on safe with fdg gun vs twin 410

[keen sable]

Everything is better. Quit being a biased asinine twit

[wind hazel]

[hoary relic]

[polar lion]

Oh dat

[hoary relic]

ah this, pretty worthless to craft........

[wind hazel]

does he know

[sharp socket]

also known as soyuz pvp gun

[white agate]

use in pvp

[hoary relic]

[sharp socket]

because fast af and has the gun damage buff

[hoary relic]

for pvp only right?

tbh i have never seen any fight that my BBs fire the 5th salvo to activate the debuff

[sharp socket]

fdg gun has 20fp over twin 410 kai and slightly faster rld

[cobalt rapids]

<@&472236072743600148> maybe some people should learn to control their feelings

[sharp socket]

its been established already that its a minor upgrade over twin 410 kai but not worth unless you have its bps for some reason

[forest palm]

the sap gun is the Triple Proto Mle 1940

[hoary relic]

btw sacrifice 20 AVI while using helldiver is worthy right?

[keen sable]

Sacrifice from what? Golddiver?

[timid beacon]

iirc, the XSB3C-1 is only an measurable upgrade at +13

[hoary relic]

SB2C helldiver, the purple dive bomber which has 20 AVI less than gold dive bombers

[cobalt rapids]

much like the fdg gun is an upgrade right off the bat

[forest palm]

something like that, it's a little more lengthy of an explanation, but that's the gist of it

[white agate]

that 20 avi is unimportant compared to helldiver being good

[keen sable]

95% of gold dive bombers suck or are extremely niche.

[viscid swift]

the Goldiver carries the same bombs as the helldiver with near enough as makes no difference the same reload time so yeah

[forest palm]

pretty sure the Helldiver is a little faster, not enough to matter though

[keen sable]

Nothing here implies they are asking about golddiver specifically.

[paper walrus]

Im guessing the ur bulin here has the highest priority?

[sullen birch]

Hi everyone

[cobalt rapids]

depends if u have URs to mlb
sandy retro item is also high prio

[sharp socket]

anyone good tech here

[sullen birch]

I made thread
If you guys could help

[keen sable]

Maybe but what will you do with it?

[viscid swift]

everyone bar Hipper, and the 2 eugens is FP tech

[sharp socket]

alr ty

[hoary relic]

uhh am i wrong that there is like no crafting recipe using t1 ordnance testing rp

[paper walrus]

I do have sandy retro but i dont remember having to buy some item for it. Idk if they added it later or i just dont remember

[cobalt rapids]

not wrong

[sullen birch]

I made thread about advice
Could you guys help me ?

[cobalt rapids]

u were probably there for her event

[paper walrus]

Oh yeah

[hoary relic]

if so why do we get them from OpSi

[paper walrus]

Nothing yet but i think its good to collect some

[hoary relic]

🤔

[sharp socket]

didnt u get answered already

[honest sequoia]

does anyone know how to do the math for homing beacon for airstrike

[sullen birch]

Can't I use the ships that i have ?

[sharp socket]

plug it into https://azurlane.mrlar.dev/calculator/

[cobalt rapids]

multiply rld with 0.96 or use a calc

[keen sable]

It's not. -1 dock space. You buy when you need it.

[still pond]

is prinz eugen worth to play ? i get it tomorrow with log in ^^

[sharp socket]

just follow what the guy in your thread said, its mostly ok advice

[sullen birch]

Ok

[paper walrus]

Yeah but if i pull for a ur ship later i wont be able to lb it no?

[cobalt rapids]

the stock is infinite so u can buy as many u want when u do

[paper walrus]

Oh i didnt notice that yeah 🙏

[keen sable]

Buy it when you need it unless you enjoy having less dock space...

[keen sable]

Sure you can but you asked for better.

[hoary relic]

what is the next montly boss?

[cobalt rapids]

temperance

[hoary relic]

[sullen birch]

Ok
Man
It's going to take long time

[honest sequoia]

where do i even see the airstrike CD

[hoary relic]

3 month cycle right?

[cobalt rapids]

on the gear and/or in sync view

[keen sable]

What are you trying to do?

[hoary relic]

is it worthy to use array chips for enty

[cobalt rapids]

its fine

[hoary relic]

so we will lose the plates we used whenever we upgrade any gear?

[cobalt rapids]

upgrading gear in gearlab refunds 100% of the plates and 25% of coin

[hoary relic]

🤔

[hoary relic]

not 100% the plates we used i suppose

[cobalt rapids]

i just said 100% of the plates

[hoary relic]

really?

[cobalt rapids]

yes really

[hoary relic]

nah man i just tested only like 50%

[spring basin]

wait on the gacha if you get a ur early does the pity reset ? i haven't had it happen to me yet.

[hoary relic]

🤔

[cobalt rapids]

spark counter doesnt reset unless u hit it and claim

[hoary relic]

wait i forgot the req plates is different for each tier

[clear harbor]

I’ve fully retrofitted Unie. Who should I work on next?

[cobalt rapids]

portland

[clear harbor]

Replace Jav?

[timid beacon]

with Massachusetts' new augment, who between her and Georgia is the better against a heavy armour boss? in say, OpSi?

[cobalt rapids]

massa

[sweet delta]

Oh yeah Georgia is so bad that even with/ full +10 gear her 15% siren killer wouldn't make up

[honest sequoia]

Guys is secured zone worth farming in OpSi when I already cleared the whole map and daily?

[honest sequoia]

Corrosion 6 right?

[inland shoal]

5

[honest sequoia]

Any difference?

[cobalt rapids]

corrosion 5 if want fast
corrosion 3 if ure fine with abit slower but theoretical more akashis

[honest sequoia]

Why 5 tho instead of 6

[inland shoal]

It's a little cheaper while having the same amount of cats (Which is the only thing that drops meaningful stuff)

[cobalt rapids]

ap dump returns come from cat spawns and c5 and c6 have the same nr of catspawns

[honest sequoia]

Ah alright

So c5 is same as c6 but just cheaper?

[cobalt rapids]

yea when it comes to farming

[honest sequoia]

Alr thx

Does secured zone drop plates tho

[cobalt rapids]

cat nodes do

[normal cedar]

will april probably have a new event apart from frostfall rerun? how often does the game get new events

[cobalt rapids]

usually 1 new event at each eom but it depends
theres also reruns mixed in there and idk
u can check wiki past events for a general idea

[viscid swift]

they announced frostfall's rerun?

[normal cedar]

no , i just assumed it

[stark quiver]

New UR event in may most likely
Anything else we don’t know

[sweet delta]

I know the next event

It should start in 2 days

[normal cedar]

Cn anniv seems to happen at end of may and start of june tho (May 21st, 2024 , May 25th, 2023 were past year's beginning)
So, maybe first part of may has some new event?

Non ur event I mean

[soft raft]

more likely to be a rerun or war archive
they rarely do two major events in the same month (which afaik has never happened)

But either way, speculation is basically useless for now

[eternal basalt]

New event (not April's Fool) end of april. After letters a rerun

Dunno what though.

[dusty geyser]

Hi guys
Where can I farm golden retrofit upgrade thingies?
I am trying to do 4-1 but I get nothing but blue versions.
Does it get better in 5-1, 6-1 etc?

[eager mulch]

hard mode

[dusty geyser]

Yeah, I do hard mode

[eager mulch]

I don’t

[eternal basalt]

No known droprates, so we can't tell you...

[paper walrus]

is there a reason auto repeat doesnt allow me to do more than 3 runs or is that how its supposed to be

[jaunty vault]

that is how it is supposed to be

[eternal basalt]

Do 15 in raid

[paper walrus]

🙏

[eager mulch]

secret tech to do 4 runs in a row

[soft raft]

X-1 for DD
X-2 for CL/CA
X-3 for BB/BC
X-4 for CV/CVL

Drop rates are unknown, but higher world = more core data per run with the current max being 30 at W13

[forest palm]

[zenith pebble]

There a guide for how to spend core data?

And if i already have the white and black bullet things, what else would i get from there?

[atomic abyss]

/coredata

[odd root]

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/images/equip_misc/Core_Data_Priority.jpeg

[atomic abyss]

you're meant to get 3 pairs at least
and independence

[zenith pebble]

Wait really? I mostly just use 2 bb

Opsi?

[stark quiver]

yes among other things

[zenith pebble]

Ah ok

And basically dont buy anything else because theres cheaper alternatives and gear lab?

[atomic abyss]

you will buy sub stuff eventually

beacons and manjuus when yyou need to tweak timing

it's more of, you'd buy them as you need them

[zenith pebble]

Ah

[stark quiver]

how much combat data packs does it take to finish a pr ship's cdc2

[zenith pebble]

Last night it told me 200 for pr2

100 for the first, 200 for the second exp

[stark quiver]

[zenith pebble]

I think 1 data pack is worth 10k exp if my math is mathing

[eager mulch]

0

[zenith pebble]

Zero?

[eager mulch]

0

[rain vine]

yes because why would you use them for that?

[zenith pebble]

I mean, it could be the last ship

[stark quiver]

i am lazy is the reason

[rain vine]

just grind the exp
no point in burning protocore

[zenith pebble]

Could you analyze them?

[stark quiver]

yes, and you always should

[zenith pebble]

Ahhh

Whats a more efficient way to get prototype cores

I wanna buy a tenrai

[stark quiver]

convert excess ship bps, convert data packs

[zenith pebble]

Should i get the triple 305 cb gun from gear lab or just pr 4

[stark quiver]

what pr are you in rn

[zenith pebble]

Ive been doing pr3 gear

[atomic abyss]

[stark quiver]

[atomic abyss]

you shd never do anything below series 4 so uh

[zenith pebble]

An didn’t know, which one should i move onto and when do i change

[atomic abyss]

series 4

so you can get stuff for anchorage, agir and hakuryuu

[zenith pebble]

Stick to pr4 until when?

[atomic abyss]

until you finish PR4 ships

[zenith pebble]

Like, all the ships in pr4 out there ones that i need?

[atomic abyss]

PR4 has a lot of good gear as well
primarily, anchorage, hakuryuu and agir
august might be good as well if you dont have implacable

[zenith pebble]

I think developing plymoth rn? Ive finished the three you just mentioned

[atomic abyss]

if you were developing ply, you shd have set it to series 5

[zenith pebble]

Oh i see

[atomic abyss]

anyways, the reason why i said 4 was because loads of good gear, like tenrai and the BF-109G

[zenith pebble]

And since i skipped over pr4, should i get them from gear lab?

Or do that after i get everything i want from pr5

[atomic abyss]

are those ships at fate sim 5 (or dev 30 for agir)

then you shd finish that first...

so use series 4

[zenith pebble]

Take advantage of the discount daily?

[atomic abyss]

that and, get some BPs for your gear

[zenith pebble]

I got you

Once theyre all fate sim 5, then move onto pr5?

Should i leave pr 3 and under for last?

[atomic abyss]

you will NEVER touch PR3 and below research

you'd only coin the ships

[zenith pebble]

What if hypothetically i finished everything above pr4

[atomic abyss]

then you'd do PR5 or PR7 for the gear

[zenith pebble]

And for the ships?

[atomic abyss]

you would have probably coined everything from PR4 and below by the time you were done anyways lol

not to mention, we will likely have PR8 in July

[zenith pebble]

We got content this year lets gooo

[atomic abyss]

we get PR every year

[zenith pebble]

Any ideas on what fleet,

[atomic abyss]

ofc not

all we know is that they are paper ships from wows

[zenith pebble]

I sort of want more italians

[atomic abyss]

anyways the point is
i wouldnt worry about the other research ships

[zenith pebble]

Just focus on or4 and above

[atomic abyss]

you will likely be able to unlock them, and coin them all to fs5, long before you were done with PR 4-7

which is at least a year's worth of work

[zenith pebble]

I feel like itll be around 2 years before i finish with the ships

After im done with Plymouth, should i move onto russian cat?

[atomic abyss]

you could, but you wouldnt have the BPs for her

better to get the stuff in series 5 first

since you're already there

after 5, jumping to 7 is a good idea tho yes

[zenith pebble]

Napoli instead?

[atomic abyss]

doesnt matter

you wouldnt have the BPs for her either

[zenith pebble]

I see

[atomic abyss]

I feel like you're misunderstanding something

[zenith pebble]

If i can read correctly, it doesnt matter what i choose for 7, i dont have materials to make them good

[atomic abyss]

Because your research is focused on to series 5
To get dev BPs for Plymouth
And to get the gear BPs for plygun and harbin gun

You will hardly get any BPs for Nakhimov or Napoli

[zenith pebble]

Neurons clicked

[atomic abyss]

You need 513 Plymouth BPs to max her

And rainbow BPs are already rarer

This applies to Brest, Kearsarge, Hindenburg, Nakhimov, Napoli etc

As with regular ships, they are weaker without their MLB

[zenith pebble]

Ohhh

[atomic abyss]

Their MLB = Dev 30

[forest palm]

I wouldn't say "rare" per se with the system in place

initially yes, but as you finish ships there's less ships in the focus pool

[atomic abyss]

I mean the idea is you'd take longer to gather them all

[zenith pebble]

With fate sim is how much?

[vale spindle]

/devbp

[odd root]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/460648604974055424/885529968455598170/unknown.png

[forest palm]

165/215

no need to read the sheet

[zenith pebble]

;;

[atomic abyss]

Plymouth doesn't have fate sim for the moment anyways

[forest palm]

Agir, DR5, DR6, and PR7(All) don't have it

[atomic abyss]

For ships like Nakhimov, they are missing over a third of their DPS at Dev 20-29

[zenith pebble]

Jesus

[atomic abyss]

It's essentially the same as a backline UR with only 2 limit breaks

Basically you kinda need to go all in

[forest palm]

Dev 30 is technically MLB

[atomic abyss]

And what's worse for Nakhimov in particular

[zenith pebble]

Is fate sim mandatory for a ship to be good?

[forest palm]

not necessarily no

[stark quiver]

some require fs

[atomic abyss]

Is that she doesn't get her flex slot until dev 30

[forest palm]

only one I can think of where FS is required is Azuma...

[atomic abyss]

It's a case of itdependicitis

[zenith pebble]

Oh, so first get your pr ships to d30 and then finish with fs

[atomic abyss]

FdG wants FS5 so she can run off flag

Azuma wants FS5 so she has more main gun flexibility

Haku gains about 20% damage from FS5

Anchorage... Barely gains anything
Just like, maybe 5% tankier?

[zenith pebble]

Damn, so put coins in haku, leave anchy how she is

[atomic abyss]

Both

The discount for golds and rainbows are independent

[zenith pebble]

I had a dream where you said that

[atomic abyss]

So what people would do was, they'd spend ~10k daily

For 10 Ancho BPs, 10 Haku BPs

2.7k and 7.2k

And 10k is very reasonable to grind when you've hit w12
Given you get at least 1k coins per run

[zenith pebble]

Oh thats not that much

[atomic abyss]

It can be rough during events admittedly

But it's very reasonable otherwise

[zenith pebble]

Ill stop doing free for them

[atomic abyss]

At least, for an active player

[zenith pebble]

And for coins, id wanna stick with 12-4?

[atomic abyss]

Yep

[zenith pebble]

And for pr exp do 12-1

[atomic abyss]

Do try to kill 2 birds with 1 stone regardless

[zenith pebble]

I see

[atomic abyss]

You can always do both at the same time

[zenith pebble]

If my sandy is maxed out and doesnt get an exp anymore, would that affect pr exp?

[atomic abyss]

Farm coins
Farm exp for PRs
Farm exp... To level ships for fleet tech
Affection grind

So many possibilities

I mean, it wouldn't affect
But I wouldn't advise it anyways

[zenith pebble]

Stick with 12-4 for everything, what about w13?

[atomic abyss]

Because then you're letting one of the birds go

[crisp geode]

The high efficiency thing does double xp too or its just 2x drops?

[atomic abyss]

Everything x2, exp coins, drops
Including negatives

Well, it's not double drops

More of double rolls for drops

[crisp geode]

By negatives you mean oil consumption?

[stone sluice]

What’s best secondary gun on Guam?

[atomic abyss]

Oil consumption, morale consumption yes

[zenith pebble]

So just higher chance of better gear and loot?

[crisp geode]

Oh ok, did not knew about morale

[atomic abyss]

Well presumably rainbow gun is unrealistic

So something like Harbin gun or gold twin 128

[zenith pebble]

Is there a guide for the nicknames for the guns?

[boreal wagon]

the 2x things are basically 2 runs in one so everything that entails is effectively doubled (with the exception of mission counters and data key consumption)

[atomic abyss]

It's not "higher chance"
You're just spending 2x oil to roll the dice twice for a drop twice

[zenith pebble]

More loot

[rigid onyx]

nakh gets her third plane at Dev 25

[atomic abyss]

More loot in less time yes

[zenith pebble]

[atomic abyss]

Still missing fleet tech anyways

While I must confess I did use a D25 Nakhi many times for testing purposes
It's horrendous to time

[rigid onyx]

dev 25 nakh and haku are mostly mid because of enty existing and being accessible and they're so slow

[stone sluice]

Why unrealistic?

[atomic abyss]

Because someone with that many rainbow guns to spare as a CB secondary gun probably wouldn't be asking the question

[zenith pebble]

Throwing rainbow around is just rolling dice. Its why i stopped german ur torp

[atomic abyss]

Because the good rainbow guns are obviously preferred to be used as main guns

[zenith pebble]

Some gold can be better than ur from what ive seen on here

[atomic abyss]

Nah the rainbow DD guns are just flat out better in 99% of cases

[rigid onyx]

for dd, cb, and cl guns aside from 76 and 113 on barrage focused dds the rainbows are basically always better

[zenith pebble]

Oh, so just ask and find out before locking in

[atomic abyss]

There are 2 exceptions

But I think very few have even used said exceptions to know what they are

[zenith pebble]

What are they?

[atomic abyss]

london retro and shropshire retro

[zenith pebble]

Hmmm

[stone sluice]

But between the Mogador gun and the twin 100mm kai (rainbow), which one is better for Guam?

[atomic abyss]

both are completely wasted on her

[zenith pebble]

I could try london retro but im not sure what id be looking for

[atomic abyss]

throw it on sandy at that point

or eldridge even

[sweet delta]

mog by far

[atomic abyss]

both of them would benefit far more

the answer would be mog gun anyways - flat out better

[atomic abyss]

it wouldnt
she's worse than shrop retro anyways

[zenith pebble]

Mog gun always?

[atomic abyss]

only kitakaze would want 100 kai over mog gun

[zenith pebble]

Mog gun is what she comes with when you pull her right? And is there a gold version of it

[atomic abyss]

no

[rigid onyx]

doesnt sandy want 100kai

[atomic abyss]

mog gun is the limited rainbow gun from her event shop

[atomic abyss]

because of her augment bug, mog gun better
if the bug wasnt there, 113 would be better

[rigid onyx]

oh I thought 100kai was slow enough for the bug

[atomic abyss]

VT needs to exceed 0.15s, 100 kai VT is exactly that

ofc the bug can be circumvented, but it's not something you can manipulate easily for a consistent improvement

you'd basically be trying to manually control sandy's aim on autofiring guns

good luck doing that

[atomic abyss]

mog gun is the limited rainbow gun from her event shop
no gold version

[zenith pebble]

Just looked it up on wiki and know what you talking about

[atomic abyss]

yeah the twin 138.6

[dusty geyser]

another newbie question 🥹
choosing from essex and ark royal (which is not retrofitted yet), who am i focusing on?

[atomic abyss]

without context, probably ark
but hard to give a definitive answer without knowing the fleet

[dusty geyser]

I am planning to form something like
Unicorn - Royak Ark - %missing spot%
Saint Louis - Scylla - Ayanami

[atomic abyss]

missing spot should be a battleship

they would be in the middle of the backline

what carriers and battleships do you have anyways?

[zenith pebble]

I thought Essex would good

[atomic abyss]

she is
but so is ark, at the cost of no gold bulins

[dusty geyser]

That is my gang

[atomic abyss]

you are not at the point of the game where you should be building a second fleet

[zenith pebble]

once youre at w9, then you should make a second fleet

[atomic abyss]

frankly, i dont even think the saint louis is usable

[dusty geyser]

Yeah, I was told to replace Peter Strsomething with Ark Royak and now I am curious if Essex do better

[atomic abyss]

saratoga would be the best, so you would use her instead

[dusty geyser]

instead of Essex and Ark Royal?

[atomic abyss]

yes

[dusty geyser]

weird world we live in, got it boss

[atomic abyss]

she becomes much better than them

she has a retrofit like ark royal, she also has an augment

[dusty geyser]

she is cute tho 🥹

[atomic abyss]

if the louis isnt max stars i wouldnt bother using her

[zenith pebble]

i kept sara and retro her and i used her through w12

[atomic abyss]

speaking of which, max limit break royal oak

[zenith pebble]

sweet, just got anchy to fs5

[dusty geyser]

so if i speak from the point that i need a so called “tank” who should i focus on?

[zenith pebble]

portland

[atomic abyss]

the default option for a new player, is portland

[subtle bluff]

I read Franklin’s kit but is she good compared to other Eagle Union carriers?

[zenith pebble]

youll probably have enough ships around w10?

[atomic abyss]

saint louis can be your tank, but is she max stars?
it takes a fair bit of work for her to be there

[atomic abyss]

comparable to the other better gold essexes (essex, SRL, hornet 2)
still not enterprise level

in other words, good gold carrier

[dreamy blade]

essex pro max

[subtle bluff]

Ah so better backline still Enti, NJ, Kearsarge

[atomic abyss]

if you dont have yorktown 2, pretty much

tho kears is kinda wasted there

[subtle bluff]

I missed that entire event, waiting for rerun

[atomic abyss]

...she just reran like in Jan

[subtle bluff]

Wasnt active then…my luck. Ugh

[atomic abyss]

so uh, see you in a year i suppose

[zenith pebble]

damn

[subtle bluff]

What is a good Kearsarge lineup since i just got her

[atomic abyss]

or hope we get another UR essex

any good kearsage comp uses yorktown 2

so you're shit out of luck there

enterprise is a considerable downgrade from yk2

[zenith pebble]

while you wait for yorktown 2, i guess start working on mlb?

[atomic abyss]

at that point you'd be better off using a different UR CV comp

[subtle bluff]

mlb?

[atomic abyss]

well, it depends on your other URs

[zenith pebble]

max limit break

oh yeah, what other pr ships you have?

[subtle bluff]

U cant attach photos here wow

[atomic abyss]

you can

[atomic abyss]

you have 0 business running kearsage then

[zenith pebble]

beautiful waifus

[subtle bluff]

Ive been playing for 5 years lol

[atomic abyss]

i mean shinano and amagi are already there
hakuryuu can be unlocked

and there you have 3 UR CVs

[zenith pebble]

why not musashi

[atomic abyss]

unfortunately it does seem you ALSO had the misfortune of missing both runs of implacable

[timid beacon]

you can run Kearsarge if you want to btw, just it's far from optimal without Yorktown II

there's much better options

[atomic abyss]

not a CV, not a CV buffer

[subtle bluff]

I pulled for Implacable 111 times

[subtle bluff]

Musashi is my main duh lol

[zenith pebble]

lucky

[subtle bluff]

My only downside in this game is understanding fleet comps

[timid beacon]

just gotta read the skills, and try to mix and match to maximize the options

[zenith pebble]

i cant read

[atomic abyss]

ah, that's unfortunate

then grab hakuryuu i suppose

[dusty geyser]

wait she is monster-smurfing

[subtle bluff]

Yeah. Im starting to build her.

[dusty geyser]

i didn't realize she was so good

[atomic abyss]

she isnt that good

you just have nothing better

and going without a battleship is far worse

[timid beacon]

look at this skill for Kearsarge as an example. break it down an it suggests 3 things to maximize the benefits:

1. have an Eagle or NP gun
2. have Eagle or NP planes
3. pair with another Eagle main fleet ship, preferrably a CV or CVL

[subtle bluff]

The problem is Royal Navy battleships lacking big bad. Royal Oak is solid compared to other BBs in their arsenal

[subtle bluff]

I read this and thought pair with Enterprise

[atomic abyss]

the thing is, royal oak is... not actually that good even amongst HMS BBs

[timid beacon]

that's a good option! like was said, it's not gonna be near as good as with Yorktown II, but early on you gotta work with what you have. just know that pairing might not get you far down the line

[zenith pebble]

i feel like the only mentionable bb in hms is hood

[subtle bluff]

i mean the best SS BB for them is Howe

[atomic abyss]

Howe, Hood, Nelson retro, Duke of York and even Monarch

[zenith pebble]

or would that be for beginners before w11

[atomic abyss]

nelson (retro) is just as viable as hood
and even more easily accessible

[subtle bluff]

Hood is mid. Howe is upper tier.

[dusty geyser]

Coudlve taken Hood for medals, but took Jean Bart 😭

[zenith pebble]

bart is good with her faction

[atomic abyss]

at that point you wouldnt even use her

[timid beacon]

Jean Bart is a solid performer, especially early

[atomic abyss]

she's the worst SR BB in her faction

[subtle bluff]

Which is why i am eternally stuck on world 13

[zenith pebble]

isnt howe added to perma?

[atomic abyss]

perma yes
and that's all
have to rng your way into her

[zenith pebble]

i feel like to cheese w13 is having good gear and max skill with mlb

[timid beacon]

ohh, yeah 13 is rough. CVs, CVLs, you have NJ who's really solid there

[atomic abyss]

cheese w13 is just 5 carriers
2 AA specialists

[dusty geyser]

Oh i remember another question that was bothering me for long
What banner should i pull? Preferably

[atomic abyss]

unfortunate, but lets minimise losses here
we focus on royal oak since she's already level 80

[subtle bluff]

Right now, none lol

[atomic abyss]

as a new player
1x light build a day outside UR events

next UR event is probably around CN anniversary
so late May

[timid beacon]

your light build is 'free' because you get a new cube from missions with that build, plus extras

[zenith pebble]

save cubes, ur ship help you

[timid beacon]

daily, that is

[subtle bluff]

Save cubes for UR events

[zenith pebble]

i think itll take 200 for hard pity?

or is it 400 pulls?

[atomic abyss]

400 cubes used

[timid beacon]

each build is 2 cubes, yeah

[atomic abyss]

light is 1 cube

[zenith pebble]

so realistically, have about 600 in storage with ur and without ur event

[dusty geyser]

Thank yall
I got too spoiled with amount of cubes, i guess.

[subtle bluff]

200 pulls hard pity. no soft pity in game. Light pullnis 1 free cube cus you get it back and also you can save quick finishers way faster that way

[timid beacon]

400 pulls is for the permanenty available UR pool, from any of light, heavy, or special builds

[atomic abyss]

it's not 400 pulls

it's 400 cubes used

very BIG difference

[subtle bluff]

It doesnt matter the UR, they are all excellent, but prioritize what u are missing first.

[zenith pebble]

when you get to 400 cubes used, id go for shinano

[timid beacon]

oh dayum, ok that is worded real poorly in the description then

[subtle bluff]

Are you developing PR or DR ships?

[zenith pebble]

i think homie is still before w9

[dusty geyser]

with all due respect i aint got a single clue what is DR or PR

i did read the guide but it's still a mystery for me

[subtle bluff]

lol. If you aint after world 9 it wont appear yet

[zenith pebble]

you unlock them when you hit level 30 and its going to be in lab then click shipyard

[dusty geyser]

i am commander level blocked 6-1

[timid beacon]

a ways to go then

[zenith pebble]

these ships are locked based on faction tech points

or whatever theyre called, cant remember the name

[atomic abyss]

he has saint louis

[subtle bluff]

Yeahhhhh damn i forgot you have your unlock that crap

[atomic abyss]

he has already done research

[subtle bluff]

Ohhhh i got confused with St. Louis lol big diff

[zenith pebble]

finished researching before w7

[subtle bluff]

This is what i mean @dusty geyser

[atomic abyss]

well it could be the other st. louis
but she is harder to get lol

[dusty geyser]

i am on my way to get her.

[zenith pebble]

i wouldnt worry or stress about shipyard until w9, but saint louis is a good head start

[atomic abyss]

i would change that to w12

[zenith pebble]

really?

whys that? i got quite a few pr ships just hard grinding w9

[subtle bluff]

Yep. And dont be like me and build worthless ships lol

[atomic abyss]

the keyword is hard grinding

[zenith pebble]

oh

yeah nvm, exp in w9 sucks and is slow as hell. i feel like even with a full fleet the percentage only goes up by 1

[atomic abyss]

with w12, it need not be hard grinding
exp is much higher in w12
coin gain to be used for research is also much higher

[dusty geyser]

w.i.p….

[atomic abyss]

there's a 20% jump in exp from 10-4 to 11-1

[zenith pebble]

keep it like that fn

[atomic abyss]

20 or 30%
cant rmb

[zenith pebble]

what about pr gear? would homie focus on pr 1 or go focus on pr4 gear

[atomic abyss]

as i told you earlier

there is no scenario that you would ever select PR 1 thru 3 as your focus

[zenith pebble]

dont touch anything under 4

[atomic abyss]

unless you were asking the question in 2020 i guess

[zenith pebble]

lemme time travel and start covid again

[dusty geyser]

I also do have this.
I can see it somehow is used in so-called gear lab to craft a better one.
Do I lvl it for now or keep it lvl0 for craft?

[atomic abyss]

you cannot craft the better one yet lol

you have not done operation siren

[subtle bluff]

This gun is the definition of standard mid

[zenith pebble]

not until you complete opsi

[atomic abyss]

well, actually why not give it to royal oak as is
upgrade to +6, use as her secondary gun

[zenith pebble]

homie has hedgehog. where put?

[atomic abyss]

nowhere

[zenith pebble]

not good or?

[subtle bluff]

Check out the tier list: https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/

[atomic abyss]

dont confuse him

[subtle bluff]

And follow the recommended guns

ah you think its confusing?

[atomic abyss]

the guide is pretty bad if you dont read the descriptions

[subtle bluff]

Maybe thats my problem hahahaha

[atomic abyss]

do you know what the hedgehog is for?

[subtle bluff]

I hate building in this game

[zenith pebble]

all i know is its aux. thats it

[atomic abyss]

it is an anti submarine gear, the best one there is
you use it when submarines are a threat
which is only at 14-3, 14-4, 15-3 and 15-4

[dusty geyser]

i seen that web-site, respectfully if i followed it 100% i would have end up in a situation where my ships are running in the middle of the ocean with their dawgs naked 😭

i was talking about this thing

[atomic abyss]

you do not have the means to craft it

[zenith pebble]

i followed the guide and belfast dude and i clearned w13 easily

[atomic abyss]

you have not unlock or done operation siren, you cannot craft the better version in gear lab

[zenith pebble]

opsi takes a while and you need i think 4 fleets. when you get more and better ships, we can talk about gear lab

[atomic abyss]

level it to +6, use it as the secondary gun for royal oak
best use for it at this point

[subtle bluff]

Omg worst aspect to the game. U wanna talk about hard grinding

[viscid swift]

no one asked and you're exagerating

[atomic abyss]

far from worst

[zenith pebble]

just send ships to w9 and forget

[atomic abyss]

opsi is only a pain for players who are not active

if you're not active, why even do it to begin with?

[zenith pebble]

you can clear the entire thing within what, 3 days?

[atomic abyss]

depends on your ships

[zenith pebble]

that too

[atomic abyss]

pretty sure you need 100+ ships at least to clear c4
dont think you need 120

[zenith pebble]

i cleared with this fleet

minus all the gear lab gear

and rainbow aux

i havent tried it out yet but this should be a good flet to auto w14 right?

[viscid swift]

it works but is a bit sloppy in the finer details

[atomic abyss]

shouldnt be an issue

[zenith pebble]

got it, ill keep trying to get better ur ships and gear

[atomic abyss]

well

you MAY want to change alsace's gun for one map

[zenith pebble]

which one, what map, and what gun?

[atomic abyss]

14-3 boss is light armour

[zenith pebble]

oh, change main gun?

[atomic abyss]

AP gun will do jack shit to it
give her a good HE gun

yes

[zenith pebble]

ap is better for med-heavy, and he is best for light?

[dusty geyser]

got it. +6 and roayl oak.

[zenith pebble]

should i have 2 gear sets for my boss fleet?

[atomic abyss]

for BB and CA guns yes

also, klaudia shdnt have the wyverns
give them to uni and shinano

the wyverns are extremely wasted on klaudia

[zenith pebble]

instead of the italian thing?

[atomic abyss]

give her the breguets that uni and shinano have instead
... those are french

[zenith pebble]

french torp bombs

[atomic abyss]

why is it a waste?

klaudia has 2x 130% wyverns for each slot

[zenith pebble]

oh ok, keep those on klaud instead of wyvern and if i do get more wyverns, still dont use them on her

[atomic abyss]

uni would have 3x 135% wyverns
shinano would have 4x 140% wyverns

there are other priorities beyond a 4th wyvern

457, 100 kai, double 76 etc

also, shinano shd be using fighters in slot 1

planes arent a threat, but they're not non existent either

conv torps are shit without a slower anyways

[zenith pebble]

so just put pancakes and wyverns on everbody if i become a slave for numbers

[atomic abyss]

well yes

far from necessary, but yes

[zenith pebble]

lmao

follow gear guide, read skills, and use brain basically

[atomic abyss]

easier said than done, but yes

[cobalt gate]

whats the maximum amount i can store here?

[zenith pebble]

at level 12, it should be 66

[cobalt gate]

thanks

[soft raft]

yup 66

[cobalt gate]

speaking of which how much purple bullin do you guys save up?

[zenith pebble]

should you grind coins on w13 or 12?

[tame jungle]

12 is much easier

[cobalt gate]

13-4 best if purly coins

even 13-1 is better than 12-4

[tame jungle]

so if you're not purely farming coins (such as when you still have tech to grind) you're probably better off doing 12-4

[zenith pebble]

ill try to safe 13 tomorrow or something, but w12 is killing multiple birds with one stone?

tech meaning shipyard?

[tame jungle]

something like that yeah
13-4 you'll probably want a couple of carries in your grinding fleet

tech not meaning shipyard, rather the extra stats

[zenith pebble]

which tech?

[cobalt gate]

12 is better exp wise, 13 is better coin and cog

[soft raft]

Fleet tech bonuses

The little stats you get when you obtain and lvl 120 a ship

[zenith pebble]

oh those fleet thing next to faction

[soft raft]

If you've seen us go like BB FP +1 or CV RLD +1 or etc every now and then, that's what fleet tech is

[zenith pebble]

ohhhh just read the wiki and kind of understand it better

[forest palm]

it's like cats without the headache

[zenith pebble]

so come to find out ive already safe w13-4

[cobalt gate]

speaking of that, is there a good cognitive income calculator?

[forest palm]

not really, you just farm 12+, if you are purely looking to farm cog chips you end up somewhere like 15-1

[cobalt gate]

i see, wanted to see how much i would get from events usually monthly

[forest palm]

sure someone has that kind of data around here, but I don't think they're around atm

[cobalt gate]

gotcha

[eternal basalt]

How many the next event needs on purple's. So currently... 4 for Miller

[weary gust]

Idk, I don't have any ships left to limit break except new ones, so bulins fill up in my dock until I trim down their numbers, usually to 6 or so of each?

[quasi cipher]

Does Series 4 DR/URs even have Fate simulation. Kept 61 saved up for Aegir, but nothing till today.

[forest palm]

Agir, DR5, DR6, PR7(All) do not have FS

[eternal basalt]

The other DR4 (Hakuryuu) does have fate sim

[quasi cipher]

Seriously?

[tame jungle]

yes seriously

[quasi cipher]

Mannnn. Shoulda saved up for someone else. But oh well

That makes it....2.2k proto cores to burn.

[tame jungle]

don't do that

actually refresh my memory, is agir coinable now?

[viscid swift]

yes

[quasi cipher]

She has to be. Hakuryuu does

[tame jungle]

oh in that case i retract my statement, it can be fine if you need the protocore

[quasi cipher]

But I have her maxed out now. Well 30/30 I mean

[quasi cipher]

Might need the cores for....whatever upgrades Bismarck Zwei, or my Carriers need.

[zenith pebble]

i dont think i ever got an answer but for my mob fleet im fine with one gear setup, but for my boss i would want ap and he right?

and depending on what armor the boss is, thats when i change?

and ap would be fine for both heavy and medium armor right?

[undone plover]

pretty much
mob also has more medium/heavy enemies late game
but it just so happens that the best mobbing gun is AP
mobbing gun is more about timing than ammo usually

[maiden flume]

whats the best way to get exp books?

[zenith pebble]

oh, my mob should be ap then

[zenith pebble]

lecture hall

[weary gust]

Upgrade your lecture hall, farm enough.

[undone plover]

it should be twin 457 if u have it
and twin410 for musashi

[zenith pebble]

yeah i put purple 410 kai on musashi

so to put it simplify, make both ap and he gear set for boss and just slap whatever matches skills in mob

[weary gust]

Are you talking about campaign or opsi?

[zenith pebble]

campaign

probably shouldve specified, mb

for opsi, i feel like rocking with what i currently have is good enough. why change something when it works

[crisp geode]

Since the event is only a boss fight, should i switch Unicorn with Implacable?

Main fleet would be Enty, Hood and Implacable

[weary gust]

Doesn't really matter since oilcap exists. If you're trying to optimize how long it takes then maybe implacable is a tiny bit faster.

And there are still mobs.

[forest palm]

the event itself is rather easy, the rewards are bad, so you can choose to do the minimum

[zenith pebble]

does anyone have an answer to my question?

[weary gust]

What question

[crisp geode]

Would this be good enough?

[zenith pebble]

i wanted to know if this was ideal or not

[weary gust]

I don't know what you mean by "just slap whatever matches skills in mob". Gear wise you should always use gear required for ship skills if you're using that ship.

[late flame]

i swear sometimes folks forget this isnt a spoonfeeding channel

[slow fox]

I approve of spoonfeeding

[zenith pebble]

i guess you just answered my question

[willow crag]

MLB Rafaello, Rumey, Mogador or Z52? I have 5 bullins and I can buy 5 more but I plan on saving for Biszwei and next new UR so I can only MLB one

[weary gust]

Z52 is the most useful of those four imo. Rumey is useful for Hornet META. If you don't have any UR BBs Rafaello is useful.
It all depends on what you currently have and what you are trying to do.

[soft raft]

what other URs do you have?

[dreamy blade]

rumey is far more useful than just for hornet meta

[timid beacon]

I'm hoping guessing that's just mentioning Rumey is useful for a current fight?

[viscid swift]

well she's practically one of the best for light and medium armor bosses

she's proven herself not only Hornet META fleets but for Jintsuu as well

[timid beacon]

she's definitely a strong one. can't see a reason not to prioritize her tbh

[dreamy blade]

top tier vs light/med bosses while also being one of the best campaign carriers

[timid beacon]

admittedly, having a UR DD is hella handy for when a hard mode or event requires a DD. but I'd still say Rumey first, then one of the DDs

[viscid swift]

I don't know why you'd need a UR DD for events

they're easy to the point where just about anything works

[dreamy blade]

z52 would help a lot with 13h i suppose

if you missed laffii

[timid beacon]

it's a nice to have, yeah. Rumey definitely takes priority

[willow crag]

Slr

Most URs

[soft raft]

That barely gives us any info

Like what specific URs do you have? How close are they to MLB? that kind of stuff

[timid beacon]

tbh Rumey is a good choice to mlb regardless

[willow crag]

Gimme a moment

The URs on the bottom are dupes and the un lbed ulrich is also a dupe

[timid beacon]

I mean, you're well into great ships and stuff already, so looking for quickest impact? I still say Rumey out of the options

[willow crag]

So yeah z52, rumey rafaello or mogador? All I know Mogador is bad

[willow crag]

Not really quickest impact but a specialized character thats good at her role

[timid beacon]

Mogador isn't bad, she got a bad rap early before being rebalanced. she's pretty solid at catching bosses in place of a slow, or grabbing suicide boats that try to sneak past

[willow crag]

Wait she was rebalanced?

[viscid swift]

more like patched

[timid beacon]

her timings and values for how much damage she could take while charging were changed

[viscid swift]

they did it before the end of the event

[timid beacon]

problem is, all the 'Mogador bad' reviews came out immediately

so she's fine now. she was on my mobber fleet through w14

[sinful escarp]

first impressions last, and honestly when i was using mog after the rebalance she was good

[willow crag]

Hmm I might do vanguards then, not sure if Id want z52 or mogador now

[late flame]

missed opportunity for first Tier N UR DD

[viscid swift]

Z52 pretty handily between the 2

but you have plenty to do as is

[timid beacon]

Z52 yeah, unless you're running a lot of Iris ships together and want Mog to slot in for the bonus

[willow crag]

Whats z52’s role then?

[viscid swift]

jack of all trades

she's a good mob tank, AA carry, small debuffer, pretty good damage

[willow crag]

Oh shes a TANK? I mean I guess I might as well

Off tank?

[viscid swift]

yeah

[willow crag]

Aight that works

[weary gust]

Recently redid my opsi fleets. Any comments/suggestions/any obvious ships I forgot to use?

[stark quiver]

is this preparing for next month harby

[weary gust]

No just in general.

[stark quiver]

fleet might want an ARA, can roll with guam for fleet 4 cuz detection
and you can honestly replace mog with aurora to use the fleet for anti light

[slow fox]

You can replace Unicorn with Brest

And have a REAL mainfleet ship in her stead

[viscid swift]

Hmmmm

[stark quiver]

i had a stroke reading that

[viscid swift]

Where's my virus.....

[weary gust]

Mog is the ship I was most uncertain about tbh. Might slot in Aurora.
Did you mean Fleet 3 might warrant an ARA? Cause Fleet 4 has Kazagumo already.

[viscid swift]

Why do you need 3 boss fleets

[stark quiver]

maybe not then
but i dont see fleet 4 being used next month either

[weary gust]

I do mob + anti-light/anti-med/anti-heavy usually, although atm it's med/med/heavy with their current gearing.

Not going to do a training fleet. I guess I could do a crossfleet only fleet.

[stark quiver]

the latter sounds good

[viscid swift]

yeah but surely any one of those fleets should be be able to one shot any abyssals even without ideal gearing

[sweet delta]

can confirm AP BB is enough to kill light abyssals

[viscid swift]

so can I

[weary gust]

Yes, the idea is to not have to mess with opsi comps and do everything still close to optimal always.

Was mainly updating my comps as I had not changed them in 2 years.

[forest palm]

shiny + AP should mow down 99% of Ops content

[viscid swift]

here's how I see it,
1 boss fleet should be enough all abyssals without changing gear plus chunking most of if not one shotting harbiter

then one mob fleet to deal with the usual farming

so the other 2 slots can basically be whatever

[slow fox]

-# I need 3 boss fleets to take out Harbiter

[viscid swift]

also, don't underestimate how much OpSi can supplement XP gain

[slow fox]

-# XP GUAM MENTIONED

[stark quiver]

i used two fleets this moth
a fleet consisting of
sash,soy,alsus,laff2,jim,eld
and a fleet of
implac,amagicv,shinano,z52,kaza,sirius
one for everything in ops other than arbys
one for arbiter

[eager mulch]

[weary gust]

I don't feel that I'm missing any of the good crossfleets though, except NJ's, but I don't have a York2/Kear fleet so only the barrage really.

[viscid swift]

UvH's

[sinful escarp]

for a yorkii/kear fleet in opsi who are the others recommended to be in it?

[viscid swift]

Fritz, Eldridge, Aurora, Z52/Sirius/Helena assuming you're going light armor

[sinful escarp]

any one else i can swap with helena? she is already in my bb fleet

[sinful escarp]

ah mb
cant read

[marsh plover]

Used these to three star 15-4, but can’t get to three staring 15-3 (it doesn’t have an ammo node for me to use) any advice? I don’t have mogador/alsace/Z52

It came down to the wire on one attempt with 17 HP left…

[stark quiver]

do you have like shimanto/brest/z52

[weary gust]

Agir in particular is not doing much for you.

[stark quiver]

/w15
also give this a read

💀

[zenith pebble]

/w15

[odd root]

Bridal Z23

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

[marsh plover]

I picked her bc a different google sheet said she was good for bossing 15

[marsh plover]

I have read it before…

[marsh plover]

I have shimanto, just don’t like her design so she’s not high lvl kek (that’s why I didn’t pull for the aforementioned frenchies either)

[weary gust]

Idk what sheet you read. Agir is not recommended at all for w15.

[marsh plover]

I suppose I can develop shimanto more then

[weary gust]

How many shimanto bp do you have/what dev is she?

[marsh plover]

FS 5, but at level 100, so gonna need to farm xp for her

[viscid swift]

I mean for future refference, don't skip out on good ships you don't like if you intend to tackle late game content

[marsh plover]

Nah just don’t make em flagrantly lewd and then I get what I want… I’m not even the most into this meta game thing anyways

[viscid swift]

but anyway, how were you tackling the fleets and where did it fail

[sweet delta]

why is it on the wire with 17 HP left? You mean the boss had 17 bars HP left? Which enemies are you using your boss fleet for?

[marsh plover]

Yeah boss had 17/100 health bars

[viscid swift]

so what died then

and were you using subs

[marsh plover]

Used the first fleet for pretty much everything except bosses, that was the second. Ye I have Wolfpack

I don’t really trust that 2nd fleet with clearing things on its own xD

[viscid swift]

and you called them in for the 2nd boss?

[marsh plover]

Yeah with ammo to use

[viscid swift]

well that boss fleet could be better

also what gear were you using

[marsh plover]

If I sub agir with shimanto I’m probably gonna be golden ngl

[viscid swift]

maybe, maybe not

[marsh plover]

That’s a problem for later me :3

[viscid swift]

I can't really say with the current info

did you get the map down to safe as well

[marsh plover]

At least I have it on safe danger eval

Yeah ofc spent the last few days doing that

[viscid swift]

well anyway, if you want more pointers
I don't Implac to use in your fleets proper for campaign, replace with like Amagi CV or Fritz for more damage

Eldridge retro would also make a good replacement to Agir

[sinful escarp]

you can put implac in the support fleet

[marsh plover]

Yeah see I don’t have any of them lol, but I don’t mind if I don’t get it done

Hate to say it but the new ship designs ain’t it. but that’s for another time.

[viscid swift]

yeah I frankly don't care

[marsh plover]

Cya.

[viscid swift]

victory is victory, no matter the means to achieve it

[marsh plover]

pretty shallow and soulless in my opinion but farewell

[viscid swift]

you could at least try and work with us if you want help

like, we don't know what you actually have to work with, nor the gear you're even using

there are tons of small mistakes you could be making that are costing you that you just don't realize

[eager mulch]

pulling out broadside thinking I can make the turn in time

[viscid swift]

that's not a small mistake lamo

[eager mulch]

i think they left gph

nvm they’re still here

[marsh plover]

that was to express I’m not gonna talk anymore

[eager mulch]

express? Like the train? cheeky likes trains

[zenith pebble]

is w14 meant to be a manual? im reading through the concealment thing and it just feels like it

[viscid swift]

no

we've been auto clearing W14 since day 1

and it's been powercrept in the years since it's release

[zenith pebble]

i see

[eager mulch]

w14 and w15 were autoable on release

[zenith pebble]

should i collect the flares too?

[viscid swift]

no

they mess with concealment status of ships and honestley makes it more of a detriment than a benefit

[zenith pebble]

👍

[mossy crystal]

Any advices?

I'm LF mostly for best fleet comp

[sinful escarp]

for campaign?

what world?

[eager mulch]

very unspecific

[mossy crystal]

I've been just doing event rn, using recommended load outs. I'm currently at w11

[viscid swift]

Mob: Vanguard, Unicorn, Volga, Saint Louis, Yuudachi, Z23
Boss: Soyuz, Enterprise, Independence, Roon, Helena, San Diego

stop spreading your focus around on so many different ships

focus on just these 2 fleets and maxing them

[mossy crystal]

Thanks

[viscid swift]

both in skills, gear, and levels

[mossy crystal]

Alright, I just like spam retrofits lol, should stop doing that

I think my warspite and San Diego both maxed in terms of gear

[viscid swift]

yeah time to strip warspite to gear Vanguard and Soyuz

[sinful escarp]

sadly warspite is very powercrept, but sandy is still good

[mossy crystal]

Alr

What about in terms of pvp?

[zenith pebble]

i think that would be asked in #pvp ?

[stark quiver]

no
not good anymore

[sinful escarp]

still powercrept there

[zenith pebble]

oh i read that wrong

[mossy crystal]

Alr

[mossy crystal]

My mistake, I worded it wrong. Thanks tho

Shinano no good? Or it's just missing a star?

Ah, if it gets a star, what does it replace

[viscid swift]

right now no one really

[sinful escarp]

imo just focus on the fleet that was suggested to clear atleast until 12-4

[mossy crystal]

Alright, also I'm close to getting ur pity. Which one should I get jersey, shimzake, von hutten or kron

Alr

[viscid swift]

another dupe of Shinano to limit break her

[sinful escarp]

worry about leveling the others after that because of the oil cap

[mossy crystal]

I see alright

[mossy crystal]

UR last limit break shouldn't take 2 URs imo

😭 also mb for replying

[viscid swift]

#game-feedback is that way

[sinful escarp]

nah its only fair

[viscid swift]

also, every ship require 2 dupes/bullins for their last limit break

[mossy crystal]

I know

[rocky tinsel]

Is there any reason to three star war archive maps?

[viscid swift]

no

[zenith pebble]

happiness and ocd

[sonic kayak]

Hey guys

I have a problem with the game XD

[viscid swift]

what problems exactly?

[zenith pebble]

glitch or fleet?

[sonic kayak]

For some reason the game doesn't load

I can't play pvp o other mission

[viscid swift]

have you tried fixing and reparing assets?

[sonic kayak]

Nop XD

[zenith pebble]

would that be tech support or known bugs?

[viscid swift]

otherwise it's probably an issue with your internet connection

[sonic kayak]

Hmm maybe

[normal cedar]

is there any pattern to medal shop rotations or is it random?
do the same class/ships appear in consecutive months ever

[viscid swift]

completely random

[sonic kayak]

Idk bc i have good connection to internet but that doesn't work

[viscid swift]

you can even roll the same line up twice in a row

[sinful escarp]

this happens a lot for me

[normal cedar]

sandy jan on wiki says medal shop had bb,bb does this mean there was only 1 class choice available or what

[stark quiver]

i like how avrora doesnt have their jan pool lol

[viscid swift]

it means both options were BBs

[mossy crystal]

Does sub fleet even matter?

[zenith pebble]

they do matter

[viscid swift]

in time yes

[normal cedar]

so they split the pool? or was it the same pool twice

[viscid swift]

though at your stage of the game not really

[mossy crystal]

Which subs I should focus on? Eventually.

[stark quiver]

albacore

[zenith pebble]

fish pack supreme?

[viscid swift]

well you'll probably get more subs by then but U-47, U-81, and U-96 from the medal shop from your current options

[zenith pebble]

ill switch out my wolf pack then

[sinful escarp]

, 🔦 , 🏹 🐟

[stark quiver]

actually, does anyone rememeber the medal shop options from jan for avrora

[mossy crystal]

Alright, royal fortune any good? She's lowk my waifu

[viscid swift]

well I presume since it wasn't recorded no

[mossy crystal]

She's only one on sub fleet that's maxed in terms of skills haha

[viscid swift]

no, she exists to cheese the daily sub raid and that's it

[mossy crystal]

Oh I didn't know that

[stark quiver]

thanks to kimocheese, im 99.9% sure that avrora jan pool was cv,cv

no thanks to him, it was not 💀

[zenith pebble]

are any of the fishes in a limited time pool

[sonic kayak]

Yep the problem was the assets thx for the advice guys XD

[zenith pebble]

howd you fix the issue?

[sonic kayak]

Whit the option "repair assets"

I don't see that before XD

[forest palm]

You mean USS subs? Flasher is limited

[mossy crystal]

Seems like I'm currently unlocking UR German battleship in lab, she's any good?

[zenith pebble]

hopefully her rerun is this year

[weary gust]

Fdg yes is good

[mossy crystal]

Alr

[nocturne glade]

is the AVI or the speed more useful for this cat?

[stark quiver]

wind aclarity is absolutely useless in 99.9% of situations
go with avi

[nocturne glade]

I see, ty!

[zenith pebble]

eldridge would be a long term investment right?

[boreal temple]

I'd invest if I have her retrofit item if not then I wouldn't yet

[cobalt gate]

the only thing you would want wind is if you want to play torpedo for a dd cat

[sinful escarp]

you can have her get levels rn to prepare her for when you get her retro item

but as for being used in fleets nope

[zenith pebble]

all the blueprints from prototype shop refreshes and from there i can get more right?

[forest palm]

the UR prints don't the rest does

[zenith pebble]

is it worth getting the gold prints?

[forest palm]

PR3 prints for the 406/50 is nice

[zenith pebble]

or should i just buy the ur prints and forget about gold unless i have that many resources?

[cobalt gate]

all i know is chapaigne gun from pr3 probably 2-3 and the sanrai from pr6?

oh it was from pr4 saiun kai

hmm i wonder if i should buy the pr7 rainbow prints

[stark quiver]

in medal? sure

[cobalt gate]

oh i mean proto shop

[stark quiver]

i mean up to you if you already hve all the gears

[cobalt gate]

i do, but i wonder when are we even going to get fate for pr7

[dreamy blade]

are face researches better than Gs for gear?

[viscid swift]

PRs probbaly in August

DRs who knows

[zenith pebble]

/research

[odd root]

[zenith pebble]

this what ive been doing

[cobalt gate]

i forgot, will we get the catch up bp immeditly after pr 8 releases?

[stark quiver]

theyre worse

[dreamy blade]

if 2.5hr G is worse than 1.5hr, what about 4hr G

[stark quiver]

4HG isnt bad

rigmaxxing

[dreamy blade]

huh i didnt know 2hr E was good for gear

[cobalt gate]

so gold B is better for gear than d and g?

[viscid swift]

no

[dreamy blade]

i assume only better than 2hr D and G

[stark quiver]

what

[cobalt gate]

i see, i think i should transition into pure gear now

i can finish everything with universal bp now

[timber narwhal]

Wasn't their someplace on here that had all the Event stuff that lets you read it, like the Mission Notes?

[sharp echo]

who worth to limit break?

[dreamy blade]

well you already started tashkent so just finish her

[forest palm]

finish one rather than working on multipel

[cobalt gate]

tashkent for vanguard, then probably franklin?

[stark quiver]

go for whoever gives good tech

[sharp echo]

have enough tech for fdg, researching right now
roon also done
only 2 ship i research so far

[timber narwhal]

@stark quiver Not there, what I as looking for

[sharp echo]

any recommendation who to research next so i can prepare the tech?

[storm heron]

you at w12?

[stark quiver]

tash does give soviet tech to unlock nakh

[sharp echo]

10-3, currently paused

[dreamy blade]

work towards anchorage

[sharp echo]

anchorage tech enough

[storm heron]

haku tech?

[sharp echo]

oh yes i lack japanese tech
288 tech rn

[dreamy blade]

all of pr4 except marco are worth getting, can skip avp if you have implac

[sharp echo]

maybe i should focus getting more jpn tech

[dreamy blade]

i am an ibuki shill if you wanted to research her while getting ijn tech

[sharp echo]

yeah sounds like a plan

[spare ledge]

is there anyway to fix this (error while playing Op Siren)

[viscid swift]

Log out and back in again

[polar raft]

Franklin any good?

[hollow gust]

good enough for newer players

[cobalt gate]

out of these ships which one strongest?

[slow fox]

Fusou mentioned
