gameplay-help

[whole crypt]

unless they play it like Saint Louis and base it on a different faction's tech

it's possible, I just don't expect it to be the case

[dreamy blade]

kron was the first UR NP ship? which took 2(?) years after adding the faction

[whole crypt]

yeh roughly, overture was Feb 2020 and refrain was Feb 2022

[eternal basalt]

When they got added there were ZERO UR ships though

[whole crypt]

and actually that was roughly the longest original run to rerun gap of its time, overture rerun right before refrain

but we all know the gap only got worse since

[eternal basalt]

"We add lite reruns to rerun faster"

[dreamy blade]

and they havent added any factions since NP in 2020? or is sardegna newer

[whole crypt]

sardegna newer

wait no tragicomedy was earlier

the event stolen by the brits

[eternal basalt]

Tempesta

[whole crypt]

tempesta aside yeh NP was the last substantial faction to get added

[left cedar]

Yo Ho thiefs and beggars Pirate ships

[weak dust]

the tentacle faction?

[whole crypt]

as a faction they were namedropped a lot already though

the tentacle fetish faction

[weak dust]

nyoro nyoro

[normal cedar]

do you think they will add a tulip research ship in pr8 in july? idk how long it takes new factions to get research ships

[tame jungle]

🔮

[dreamy blade]

probably not but 🔮

[left cedar]

shit why the hell i did sing that music, now i need to listen 38907453187489 times

[eternal basalt]

Does WoW have Dutch ships?

[tame jungle]

yea

[left cedar]

as i and nnt mention above, not likely to have a PR8 of new faction probally 1y or 2y ahead of they being add
the other probability its a ship like Sanrui

wut makes me think, it will be a Tempest PR !?
cuz iirc have a HMS Wood ship in tempesta, right ?

[stoic forge]

Soyuz or nj?

[left cedar]

Soy no doubt ...
but in wut exactly u wanna know

[stoic forge]

Just which one is better overall

[left cedar]

i did answer right
Soy miles ahead

[stoic forge]

Ohhh

[normal cedar]

any particular place to farm t3 general part (purple aux upgrade material)

[weak dust]

why is flapjack fighter rated so high? should i just stick it on everyone?

[plain saffron]

Unless it's w15, other sidegrade of flapjacks works too

[left cedar]

pancake its cheaper than others similars
have a better AA cuz its slower and can fire more times to generate a better dmg overall
iirc its also tankier (wut dosnt matter much in general)

[eternal basalt]

Oh, and end 2020 they added the META faction

[weak dust]

which is higher priority pancake or wyvern

[left cedar]

Wyvern

[jaunty vault]

pancakes are cheaper so higher prio

tbh it also depends on what other 2x1000lb fighters you have, if any

[weak dust]

ill check in a bit

[left cedar]

i will prefer craft a Wyvern first cuz better use overall specially in mobbing campaign or Op.Si
pancake can be used, but others even "worse" can do the trick till W15

[weak dust]

i have zero gear lab things, just mats

so for first craft

[left cedar]

we all start with 0, and in several years we build up a really stocked arsenal ... so take ur time ...

first craft generally lower things like Twin 410 kai, or Twin 128 for DDs ... cheaper and general use should do the trick

but aim of course to Wyverns and others gud gears there

[weak dust]

k

cant afford wyvern so i go pancake

[left cedar]

they use Eletronics iirc, so if u are near to get enough things to Wyvern, i think u should hold up into pancake cuz Hellcat should work till W14 easily

[dreamy blade]

for electric components ull want 2-3 wyverns = 2 junkers > 2 ryuusei in depot if you didnt already get em > 1-3 flaps > 1-2 457 in depot ( 1 can be from protocores )
UR selectors should first be spent on 2-3 wyverns > 1-2 mk 7 > 1-2 100kais
UR test reports is 1-2 457 in depot > w.e
gold test reports is 1-3 flaps >= ~2 155kai > 1-2 457 in depot > rest
the other u can check pic from /gearlab top bottom prio coz mats are more abundant/not high prios and/or non conflicting

[jaunty vault]

chat are we getiing new faction

[left cedar]

Dutch mostly probally
windmill in banner, and tullipe mentioned

but Tulipes are from central asia, so Ottomans are also a option, cuz is the only Empire there that have some naval battles

[eternal basalt]

It's the Dutch

[left cedar]

but dutchs againts they will participate in WW1 and WW2
so more chance of be them

[eternal basalt]

They have been mentioned several times in story...

[left cedar]

i dont read story ...
its a mess and they killed Kaga ... i just hate AL lore

[jaunty vault]

no way they killed kaga

[left cedar]

something something revive amagi(CV) need someone likely her
Kaga kill herself in Akagi place

at least its this who read tell me, not 100% sure on it

[eternal basalt]

Kaga (BBV) UR sept I promise

[weak dust]

the what now?

[left cedar]

giant white fox with planes goes brrrrrrrr

[honest sequoia]

Just give Enty II smh

[sinful escarp]

enty retro

[late flame]

code g enty meta

[eternal basalt]

We have enty II (the british enty)

[jaunty vault]

taco meta when

[eternal basalt]

Once you convince the CCP to give us Ai back

[tame jungle]

kayano or kizuna

[whole crypt]

in more modern times netherlands is a major producer and exporter of flowers including tulips

[whole crypt]

I don't know what to say if you still believe it was the party's fault rather than the couple million or so reactionary netizens who ruin everything

[forest palm]

It's Dutch they're literally throwing it in your face with the Stream Title

[split gazelle]

tulips, windmill yeah.. dutch

[dreamy blade]

#al-lore has already been discussing the dutch/tulipa for weeks now think they were mentioned in raff's event?

[whole crypt]

fairly sure they were already named dropped before raff's event

don't quote me on this but it's probably going to be a handful of ships that you pull if you waifu and have zero impact on gameplay

[dreamy blade]

i figured as much which is why i asked about PR since pulling for faction tech was the only relevant thing i could think of

[whole crypt]

(like most non-research non-URs nowadays)

I find it unlikely that they will release make playing one event this year the requisit to be able to unlock and grind for a ship later this year

if they do add a Dutch ship to the research roster this year it'll likely have other requirements that players who missed this event can meet

[split gazelle]

tulipan shipgirls

[whole crypt]

anyway #al-lore #al-general

[weak dust]

i read this and think "flower girls"

whats the lowest corrosion lvl of hiddens i should do, or just do them all?

[whole crypt]

the only ones I'd not bother with are c2

[weak dust]

k

[eternal basalt]

There is an older mention, but I can't find it... even if updating their old to new name on the wiki

[naive mauve]

can we coin Agir now?

got it thanks

[whole crypt]

just need to rummage through the post D3 cutscenes from that past year's major events

[naive mauve]

is there a paid emulator? azur lane is not available on google play beta (PC)

[left cedar]

have free, and BS and Mumu and others are generally used

[naive mauve]

i dont trust free emulators : (

because of the adds before you install

[left cedar]

so i cant help

[naive mauve]

okay. thanks anyways

[whole crypt]

you don't have to trust them, they don't trust you either so it's safe

the worst thing the regularly picked emulators can do to you is annoy you with ads

[split gazelle]

mumu doesn't have ads

[naive mauve]

got it i'll try

[late flame]

using mumu, no ads yeah

[naive mauve]

ooohh, nice

[split gazelle]

on bluestacks you can disable them as option

[whole crypt]

I'm using mumu they don't have ads they annoy you with other shit... which you can just ignore

I think the one that got in my way the most with ads so far was ld

[naive mauve]

which google account should i use? the one that im using on my phone (my main account)?

[left cedar]

kinda, dosnt matter much, cuz ingame u have to login again

[whole crypt]

yeh it's fine, if you're worried you can also not login and just sideload the install

but yes you'll need to login to your yostar account somehow afterwards anyway

[naive mauve]

got it thank you guys

[fast frigate]

whats better Takemaru or Antenna for command cat

[weak dust]

prettye sure it depends on what skills they have

[left cedar]

isnt Take focused into Cruisers ?

[worldly pewter]

yeah take is very niche against antenna

[left cedar]

yeah, Take is focused into Cruisers

[whole crypt]

at the end of the day depends on what talents you rolled, the skills actually don't add much either way

[left cedar]

better prepare and invest into they own niche, than after waste giga tons of gold into right things

i'm trying to reroll cats for idk, 3ys ... and i'm still doing ... so better make it right

[whole crypt]

same 🙃

[worldly pewter]

[whole crypt]

BB fleet might be easier to just use the tempesta cats I need to check

[left cedar]

only perfect cats will beat Tempesta Cats ...

[whole crypt]

I just happened to have a bisha with ace and soulful for some reason which is in my soynak fleet

wait no, flame and soulful lmao

[left cedar]

so a perfect BB Talents to a wrong focused cat
wut a luck

[whole crypt]

my BB fleet uses a soulful lime with no flame

[weak dust]

soynak is soyuz and nahkimov right?

[left cedar]

wut a flame

[polar lion]

Antenna

[left cedar]

iirc Antenna works in both Cmmd and staff

yeah, Antenna is general slot cat

[fast frigate]

I havr bishmari on my staff

[polar lion]

So does it hav all the BB talents on the rest?

[whole crypt]

CV 🙃

[polar lion]

Oof

[whole crypt]

which is why it oddly fits for soynak

[polar lion]

Yes became mixed fleet kyat

[whole crypt]

for the record it doesn't work for Kear/Yorktown II because BBVs not listed for BB talents

[left cedar]

now go to a Antenna with Ace and Flame, i beleive in ur potential

[polar lion]

I'm on the opposite. Hav perfect Lime but still hunting for mixed fleet kyat

Never considered it b4 coz it can't be optimal for any of the hull involved but figures I might as well now

[whole crypt]

it's not something to be worrying about until you run out of coin sinks anyway

[forest palm]

someday they'll let us deposit excess coin into the bank

[left cedar]

wut a cope

[woven star]

yeah, players exchange for cats where coins will go to bank

[polar lion]

Which coin sinks are the most reliable u guys use? My retrofits are almost all done, augs bottlenecked by stones income, and kyats only limited to talents reroll and 15 kyat boxes purchase

[eternal basalt]

Spend 50k on roses by accident? That?

[late flame]

smh having coins to sink

[woven star]

cats is a major coin sink.... and wth why they made it once per day? give me opportunity to spend my coins

[polar lion]

Roses has limits?

[late flame]

yes (weekly)

[left cedar]

Cats > gear all ships in my dock > MLB ships idc about lvling cuz shit techstats

[forest palm]

all I have left is Cats, and Augments for coin dumping

[polar lion]

Sayme

[left cedar]

btw, "gear all ships in my dock" only work for top gears, i dont do with anything, have to be a really gud gun

[eternal basalt]

8 per week

[whole crypt]

buying cat boxes has a limit but rerolling high level cats drains much more

but you're never truly down to those sinks before you're done LBing and retrofitting

[polar lion]

Yea only reliable one I hav is rerolling kyats talents coz this is the only one most expensive for me so they actually drain the coins I want to go away so I can collect natgen

[left cedar]

my cats are around 14k to 21k per cat to reroll, and i'm with 3 to reroll

https://imgur.com/a/gears-n1YdRmo
this is my depot (gears) few days ago

[polar lion]

I reroll liek 7 daily

[left cedar]

i already have few perfect cats, so no need to reroll so many
i only have to reroll perfect BB cats ironically

w8, 1 Elite CV Focused cat and 2 BB Cats Antenna and Oscar

[woven star]

ideally reroll after 2 points. if you don't get perfect skill from 2 points than go again... but who want to wait a day cd. anyway coins,coins

[naive mauve]

playing on both pc and phone is not bannable right?

[polar lion]

Nope. Been doing that for years

[naive mauve]

got it thank you

[woven star]

hopefully luck goddess f*ck me two days in a row. after 2 BBs skill she ask me to get CL or AVI so I rolled it anyway

[left cedar]

ideally go till u invest enough points to get the perfect talaents, cuz u need 2 of main stats 1 flame and 1 unique talent, other points are generally HIT or RLD

[whole crypt]

I still have zero perfect or near perfect SR cats 🙃

[polar lion]

Wait I thot u hav perf Edel

[left cedar]

i have perfect SSs, CA/CL FP Focused cats Teams
Near Perfect CVs Teams
Trying to reroll a perfect antenna for 3ys

[golden moth]

Is the upcoming livestream will serves us info about a sp event..

[left cedar]

a new fac

[golden moth]

U can say it's a minor event?

[left cedar]

idk, w8 4 it

[eternal basalt]

It has no CtA

[golden moth]

Hai hai copy that

[left cedar]

can be a med event, 4 or 5 maps, with shop and point rewards
can be a major, 6 maps, shop and point rewards
can be a minor with only point rewards

not counting SP and EX

[whole crypt]

Indiana had a CTA, this is almost definitely something smaller like maybe VT and OpConv

[forest palm]

no CTA in patch notes, so ya

[eternal basalt]

Tempesta has no CtA, 5 ships... so...

[whole crypt]

I'm not referring to banner size

[left cedar]

5 ships for dutch gona be ... hard
iirc they only have 1 dreadnought ship in WW2
and pretty sure they just run with him from asia to somewhere in alied ports

so probally 1 Dread with 2-3 DDs mostly

[whole crypt]

[eternal basalt]

#al-general message

[normal cedar]

does cta have anything other than +20% exp for some ships?

[forest palm]

collectable

well...that's Part 2, but ya

[left cedar]

also a way to us know fac and guess if its a major with or without UR from amount of points

[normal cedar]

collect what? similar to stickers in hospital event?

[left cedar]

chat things

[eternal basalt]

The frame during event

[normal cedar]

ahh got it, thanks

[whole crypt]

chat frame
usually requires all event ships MLB, or obtain if UR/META
there are "spare" missions using CTA ships that can replace maybe 1-2 missing banner ships

[left cedar]

pretty sure ints only 1, no ?

[strange fable]

Opsi anti light
Kearsage / York2 / Rumey

Are there any alternatives if i dont have rumey?

[left cedar]

with CTA u can cover only 1 missing ship with points adquired with ships in maps

[tranquil dagger]

For the war archive levels, is there any point to 3 starring them? Also should I be clearing as many of the escorts as possible before I hit the flagship

No to both?

Thanks

[left cedar]

just rush to boss and reach the D3 where generally u farm it the thing uwanna

[tranquil dagger]

Someone said I ought to be farming UU at my level so I'm currently farming SP5 for that

[whole crypt]

maybe 2 elites, but definitely not 2 SRs/UR

[left cedar]

also, take a note farming into WA isnt much a thing, exceptions can be made to get KMS tech points or in a end game where u dosnt hae a shitty to do

[hollow gust]

Implacable and The cat are better anyway

[whole crypt]

third ship is basically always Implacable because consistency

[strange fable]

Implacable / york2 / nak ?

[whole crypt]

Kearsarge/Yorktown II/Implacable

[strange fable]

If I take away implac, who will sub in Shinano/Haku ?

[whole crypt]

if you have an anti heavy fleet using Implacable then maybe AvP cope, I dropped Kearsarge/Yorktown II for Soyuz/Nakhimov

[tranquil dagger]

Gotcha, I'll probably spam my keycards on SP5 just so I can take advantage of the oil limit

[whole crypt]

Kearsarge has no crossfleet and Soyuz/Nakhimov brings its own stop

[forest palm]

this is why I stick to one CV fleet with gear presets in ops, cause it's bothersome

[whole crypt]

in case you were wondering if it's enough against light it's enough for oneshotting this month's hard temp

[left cedar]

i do everything exceptions Arby, Harby and C5/C6 Abyss with mobbing, and if mobbin dosnt beat them up, my FdG fleet it will beat them
others are waifu fleets

[whole crypt]

C5 abyssals are probably fair game unless you use a leveling fleet

[strange fable]

Not really aiming for those stuffs, but room for improvement stays there. i just want to reupdate my fleet and be done with it

Kear/york2/nak
BisZ/Soyuz/Alsace
Implac/shina/haku

How are these comps?

[polar lion]

Gear preset hasn't been reliable for me coz most of the time there will always be slots unfilled coz the gears are occupied by other grills

[left cedar]

my mob its a bit of a waifu fleet ... so isnt much optimal ... so i do prefer go with FdG and see her beating the shit out of them

[whole crypt]

they'll work OS is too easy to matter

unless you completely mess up the gear

[polar lion]

U dun hav Implap?

[hollow gust]

If you want fleets that never change use your August and implacable

[strange fable]

Oh wait i sub in nak already, ty ty

[forest palm]

the bar for ops content isn't even that high

[hollow gust]

Or run the Soyuz nahk Fritz and be done with it

[whole crypt]

I usually just swap up fleets alongside swapping in/out new METAs if I bother to

[polar lion]

He dun hav Fritz

[whole crypt]

Soyuz/Nakhimov/Fritz just so much easier to use

[left cedar]

grey recommending a KMS ship ...

[whole crypt]

if no Fritz then just a third any good damage CV, even Hakuryuu can go here

[forest palm]

I have 2 Mob fleets 1 CV 1 BB, one of the mob fleets is just for leveling ships (mostly METAs)

[left cedar]

1 Mob, 1 FdG Fleet (boss) and 2 waifu fleets quite random

[polar lion]

Mamagi, Nano, Implap better

[strange fable]

This is for anti light right? How do you make use of soyuz?

[left cedar]

L and M

[whole crypt]

it's anti medium that will also murder light

[hollow gust]

[whole crypt]

OS is really not that hard, you can use an "anti-heavy" fleet and kill a light boss and vice versa, maybe with some gear tweaks, maybe just two shot it

[polar lion]

Anti light u can use Alsus, Bizwei, Vanguard instead

Yes, hakmaginano can 1 strike hard Tempy too

[left cedar]

if a fleet totally around FdG can do, alot of others can do it as well
btw, i already did strongholds and Arbys with mob fleet with quite begginers ships and not optimized gears and 1 waifu there (Desu)
i just have to make several repairs on it ...

from top of my head has something like
Hood/Uni/idr
Port/Helena/Desu

[strange fable]

Oh yeah, for mob fleet do yall prefer indepkai or aquila (offensive mode)

[polar lion]

Both

[left cedar]

i do diff cuz my fleets its around FdG, also i do prefer my waifus here and there, cuz i dont need to optimize totally to beat it

[whole crypt]

what's wrong with both

[hollow gust]

Where would you use both?

[whole crypt]

OS mobbing

[polar lion]

Opsi

[hollow gust]

Uni independence Aquila is just worse then other options

[whole crypt]

worse than what

[polar lion]

Worse than what?

[tropic tusk]

feel like opsi mobbing is awlys the right answer

[whole crypt]

the closest I can think of for good fast launch is probably Bearn META, unless you have Luna

unless you're complaining there's no BB, which the whole point is avoiding bullet time

[left cedar]

is there a answer to right Op.Si Mob ?
Cuz in my opinon, if they beat Stronghold, its a valid option

[forest palm]

Some people have an aneurism over this

[whole crypt]

they don't even need to beat strongholds but it's a good yardstick for a mob fleet that doesn't need your attention

[strange fable]

Im thinking of
Fdg / percy / aquila
Brest / ibuki / unzen

[polar lion]

Fastest clearing options that is also stonk enuf to carry everything except Arbiter is what I'm looking for

[forest palm]

that works

[left cedar]

seens a valid option to Op.Si Mob

[whole crypt]

it'll work but I'd personally pick something with more sustained DPS than Brest

[polar lion]

Liek z52

[strange fable]

I still dont know whether uni or percy and aquila or indep

[strange fable]

Interesting, swap out brest?

[left cedar]

my Op.Si mob

[forest palm]

Uni v Percy really doesn't matter in Ops

[whole crypt]

in most cases you won't really tell the difference between Unicorn and Perseus for OS mobbing

[polar lion]

Make them so they stagger nicely into all 3 waves to insta kill them all

[rapid grail]

my opsi mob is Aquila Indepkai Unikai - Brest Shima Unzen

[honest sequoia]

i wouldnt put a CV as flagship personally

[strange fable]

Surely z52 is not in front position right...?

[honest sequoia]

if u wanna run UvH then mix it with FDG

[left cedar]

UvH isnt gona be flag, since she it will be fucked up

[rapid grail]

use another tank lol

[polar lion]

My Z52 survives everything as main tank

[left cedar]

no, my FdG is my main dmg dealer

[rapid grail]

put z52 on another position

[honest sequoia]

Fdg flag Uvh Off flag and one more healer percy/uni

[rapid grail]

BB recs on the opsi mobbing fleet.

[honest sequoia]

atleast this backline has helped me thru every opsi content possible

[forest palm]

I never understood the need to fast clear

[left cedar]

my FdG fleets its the only Boss Fleet i need, others are waifu fleets i do put them randoly and change just cuz ... i wanna

[polar lion]

Saves time so I can go back to w12

[rapid grail]

Well, if it works, it works. Ultimately amounts to nothing at the end of the day

[strange fable]

Also kinda curious, what makes brest not having sustained dps again?

[keen sable]

There's a cb with dps?

[honest sequoia]

hinden

[forest palm]

Kron/Azuma

[tame jungle]

hinden not CB

[left cedar]

Guam for AA
Kron with FP

others are a bit less, but quite close to them

[forest palm]

that's really laughable btw, because if you really cared about getting back to xp grinding you'd also use a leveling fleet in ops to maximize your XP gain

[tame jungle]

looking for a fight today?

[polar lion]

I did

[whole crypt]

Z52 can mob tank

[left cedar]

why would u waste 52 in mob ?

[polar lion]

I only swap to stonk Opsi mob on the last few days of Opsi. Otherwise I'm running 5 fodders + Unikai most of the time

[whole crypt]

I didn't until I realized I'm weird and I watch my stronghold fights because I try to max cxp with subs

[forest palm]

me working while auto searching ops

[strange fable]

Where would she gives out the most in?

[left cedar]

52 buff whole fleet, dosnt matter wut they are, so she is a perfect choice for Boss

but that dosnt matter she is bad in mob, just a bit of a waste on it

[forest palm]

seriously in an AFK sim unless you are actually watching the screen like an Hour Glass you will not notice 1 BB in your mob fleet

[whole crypt]

that is true, I'm just weird

[left cedar]

in general we all are, explainto normies u play a game with womans that are a reincarneted warship, so that isnt much a argument

[whole crypt]

I don't play AL it's just there to fill my downtime from imas

[forest palm]

ya I think people get too up an arms over very infinitesimal fleet clear speed differences when they damn well know they're gonna multi task while the auto pilot is on

[eager mulch]

amagi-chan in the mob fleet for cuteness

[strange fable]

Sorry imma go back a bit

Im lockin soyuz/nak/y2k
Soyuz with her sig gun
Nak and y2k either hvar/skyraid or mix bf109

What about the frontlines?
Im guessing aurora in the middle?

[hollow gust]

Guam Kazagumo/ARA(Hamman2/Potter) Helena/Sirius

[whole crypt]

Yorktown II isn't so amazing without enough USS ships

[left cedar]

planes depends on armour u are fighthing

med and light have diff

[whole crypt]

Soyuz also change guns depending on what you fight

[strange fable]

Y2k needs minimum 3 USS, she is included right?

[strange fable]

So thats where guam and hamman come in ig?

[whole crypt]

Hammann/Potter are also ARA slots, Guam is actually a good one for CV fleets because she helps hold concealment besides tanking

but yes they also contribute to the USS slots needed

[strange fable]

Im starting to think its better to build a focused med and other for light, is that possible lmao

[left cedar]

u have 4 fleets, and generally are 3 boss fleets and 1 mob
so yeah, that means u will also need a heavy if u want to

but as we mention, isnt necessary, u can do other armors with focused fleets, maybe need 2 batle to it, but it will work

[strange fable]

Yeah got it, just wanna tweak more for some improvements thats all

Since soyuz is occupied, how will the 3BB be? BisZ/VG/Alsace im assuming? Or swap alsace to uvh for heavy?

[wind hazel]

BVA works

and i dont think uvh excel in heavy anyway 😭

[whole crypt]

you can tweak to one fleet per armour but some ships like Implac become an issue

[left cedar]

UvH does perform better in light cuz barrage, but isnt something u need to concern

[whole crypt]

again mode isn't hard enough to do that level of specialization but whatever works for you

[left cedar]

Musa generally does the trick for H

[strange fable]

Man, i always stick with musa/nj/vg until i realize nj is really outdated

[wind hazel]

opsi is outdated

[strange fable]

Just becase alsace got burn damage doesnt mean she excels in light right? She can run heavy too?

[wind hazel]

she's good everywhere

[forest palm]

I constantly say this 📣 Ops isn't a high bar

[strange fable]

I hear you loud and clear man, just wanna tweak a bit :D

[forest palm]

the only times you truly have to care about the ships you're using is Habiter or META fights

well Harbiter less so

[boreal wagon]

but harbiter is opsi

[eternal basalt]

Meta isn't?

[forest palm]

people tend to forget that part

[boreal wagon]

the only relationship meta has to opsi is that u collect coordinates there and that it is what has the button and unlocks it

its stops at that

[polar lion]

Bros prolly just want to optimize his fleets for each armor type ig

[strange fable]

I guess one last thing, what kind of fleet do i need to kill the guild boss compiler, for some reason i cant kill it

[left cedar]

just for the fun i guess, maybe the challenge to build up and see ur fleets and work going in the right direction ...

[polar lion]

Hak/impmaginano + Helena works

[strange fable]

Haku / impla / who?

[sharp socket]

implac amagi shinano

[peak crater]

Amagi, Shinano

[left cedar]

hak = hakuryuu
imp = implacable
magi = Amagi (CV)
nano = Shinano

[strange fable]

Oh sheesh

[tame jungle]

me when i have to type out the full name of a ship 💔

[sharp socket]

i read that as something else the first time

[left cedar]

i also dosnt like to write the full text ...

[strange fable]

How is the vanguard?
Ancho / kaza / helena ?

[polar lion]

Yep that works

[zenith heron]

Its alr, Since Anchor does give additional def buffs, hence the smokescreen

[zenith stag]

is 160k cog chips enough for fleet tech's sake? or do i need more

[viscid swift]

That's not even enough for 80 SRs so yes you need more

[strange fable]

Something must be wrong with my gear ig since i was running impla/shina/haku - ancho/kaza/unzen

No idea why i chose unzen back then

[solar canopy]

I want to ask about the Emulator problem for playing Azur Lane. I have tried Bluestack, MSI App Player, Nox, and Mumu Player. All of them were smooth at the beginning of playing but ended up in the same problem, after using it for several months, the Emulator often lags when playing Azur Lane. However, the most durable before the lag hit was Mumu Player.

Here are the general specifications of my computer:

• Processor: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-11400H @ 2.70GHz (12 CPUs), ~2.7GHz
• Memory: 16384MB RAM
• DirectX Version: DirectX 12
• GPU Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 with Max-Q Design
• GPU Dedicated Memory: 3938 MB
  (I use the cheapest version of MSI GF63 Thin)

Do I have to reinstall the emulator after several months of playing Azur Lane? Or is the problem with my computer system not being capable enough to use the emulators that I have used?

[peak crater]

What is your gear?

[left cedar]

isnt like gona burn instantly, so u will burn this in several yeras, but yeah, need considerable more for all tech

[steep sleet]

I have started playing azur lane few days ago, Currently this is my resources.Shall I start building some ships or save some more? Or what kind of ships I should build?light/special or heavy?

[left cedar]

desync and not optimized gears for each armor are the most probally thing

[ivory pawn]

One light build a day, save for UR events in the future.

[strange fable]

Uh whats the website to compile it to one image again

[polar lion]

Are they mlb?

[rustic osprey]

Also is haku fs5?

[steep sleet]

Alright,I should skip heavy or special ships building right?

[frozen solstice]

The question is because I'm already after chapter 9 and whether to change the composition in the second photo.

[turbid marsh]

should skip heavy or special the entire azurlane journey as they are not worth. wait for event pool or UR pool, 1 light a day.

[rustic osprey]

For now yes

Portland is an eyesore

[ivory pawn]

As far as you’re concerned, those two pools don’t exist. Tomorrow an event will start, but you’ll get free tickets to pull the Event banner with. Would not recommend using your actual cubes on it.

[strange fable]

Yeah everyone is either 120 or 125
One sec i guess imma just crop and collage

[viscid swift]

https://renhex.github.io/AzurLaneFleet/

[polar lion]

Prolly u can tinker with mumu settings to use moar ram? Tho I never had any problem with mumu to begin with

[steep sleet]

Alright, thank you.I will progress with light ships . Although I yet don't know what is event or UR pool .

[rustic osprey]

Polls in which ultra rarity ships appear

[turbid marsh]

event pool you can skip for now as well, basically those are new gold ships that takes the form of special pool, with higher rate. UR pool is ultra rare ship that is a part of event pool. UR = strong.

[viscid swift]

Pools you mean

[solar canopy]

I set it at 4GB RAM, is that not enough?

[polar lion]

Maybe u can try higher if 4gb isn't working nicely for u

[steep sleet]

I see,thanks for the info

[solar canopy]

hmm okay, Thank you for the advice.

[boreal wagon]

make sure u give mumu enough cores as well

[solar canopy]

i set it at 2 cores, is that enough? because i only have 6 cores

[jaunty vault]

i only have 2

[boreal wagon]

you have 12

(cuz of physical vs logical)

but i recommend doing 3+

[left cedar]

i have 4 total ...
and gues wut, my BS run with 2 and its doing okayish

does lag into hevier battles like META and Arby, W14/15

[jaunty vault]

my bs did not do okay

[boreal wagon]

yeah 2 works fine usually but it depends on a lot of other factors and 3 will usually be better on average

[solar canopy]

hoo okay, thanks for the information

[strange fable]

Pretend aegir is unzen with 533 quad, and ancho with her sig gun

[solar canopy]

I was smooth at first, but after a few months it became laggy

[left cedar]

gear isnt focused to boss, and isnt optimized to any armor

[boreal wagon]

yeah that will always happen but it slso goes away randomly again

[strange fable]

Im all ears

[boreal wagon]

emulators arent perfect emulations and AL is also not exactly know for optimization

[left cedar]

w8 a bit

[peak crater]

Imp might be a bit too fast compared to the other carriers. Also ypu should not use homing beacons on all the carriers

[honest stirrup]

wdym they shouldn't put homing beacons everywhere

His planes seems to sync, couldn't removing one of them unsync them?

[tame jungle]

23.34-23.96 is hardly synced

[honest stirrup]

oh
Well I'm cooked

[tame jungle]

medium-rare or well done?

[strange fable]

0.5 secs arent synced anymore? Damn i thought thats enough

[boreal wagon]

doesnt imp also get rld from having a dive bomber which renhex tool doesnt handle

[peak crater]

if you remove all of them they should stay synced

What they really aren’t

[tame jungle]

well you're closer to 0.6 than 0.5 in the first place
implac ideally goes in the middle as well to maximise the timestop window

[strange fable]

Middle as in flagship position?

[wind hazel]

do you have la9?

[tame jungle]

no middle as in launches inbetween both, sorry, can be confusing

[peak crater]

Middle in timing

[strange fable]

Oh

[wind hazel]

do you have la9 or not

[whole crypt]

you don't even need Helena for compiler

[strange fable]

What is this again?

[wind hazel]

PR7 rainbow plane

[peak crater]

The new anti heavy fighter

[polar lion]

Yea coz a lot of stuffs work

[normal cedar]

Just got tashkent today, should I raise and mlb her asap? Especially since rerun and new np event is coming up..? (will the event/s have any missions or advantage where you have to use NP ships?)

[tame jungle]

no

[left cedar]

yo, remeber me about something L-9 Still beat HBAR in L, right ?

[tame jungle]

it barely doesn't

actually it's quite a big difference

[left cedar]

so HVAR > La-9 ?

[strange fable]

Nope, its still 6/50
Im still trying to get hinden second gun 18/50

[whole crypt]

HVAR is still better for light

[tame jungle]

hvar > la9 > bf109 for L

[wind hazel]

no Vit2 either i assume

[polar lion]

Also I've been seeing La9 for anti heavy. Y is that?

[whole crypt]

because it's the best plane for it on slots that are stuck with fighters

[polar lion]

Oh yea

[strange fable]

VK107 or black Vit2?

[left cedar]

For main fleets the explanation is
up Heavy, mid Med, bot Light

for Vanguards, best option is top gears, "budget" is bottom on ...

[tame jungle]

the one that says "mode change"

[strange fable]

Cant see the description, but i assume is the darker one, 8/25

[left cedar]

wut, i did wrong ?

[wind hazel]

he doesnt have those planes

[left cedar]

so replace it ...

[wind hazel]

yes so your image is useless

[stark quiver]

hvar but no skyraider?

[left cedar]

i cant gues wut he have or not, if dont, say ...
i dont have this or that

[wind hazel]

that's why i was asking 😭

closest, but require 4 ju87 eye issue

[hollow gust]

why beaconing everything? that prevents you from slotting skyraider

[left cedar]

so wut u guys are doing nowadays, avoiding beacon in imp and using skyraider on Haky/Shin ?

[strange fable]

I only have 6 hvar and 2 skyraider, 1 ju87

[wind hazel]

this one is a bit nicer if you dont have that many ju

you get the point. just play with your plane

[forest palm]

you could just make Imp slower

[wind hazel]

i remember one of you guys posted ijn and eagle setup last time too, can probably dig them up

o i just notice haku is 23 not 22 LOL

this isnt syncing, eye problem

[rapid grail]

should i craft my first 457mm in gear lab? don't think i have enough protocores to get the 457mm prints; already used most of my protocores to get my first tenrai back then

(this is on the alt)

[storm heron]

lol just put the same setup on both, same rld

[strange fable]

Noted, thank you all

[hollow gust]

the last thing you want to nerf are your sakura carrier damage, nuke implacable if you need to

[forest palm]

fuckin send it

[wind hazel]

ok not wrong this time

[storm heron]

[wind hazel]

no vit2, balanced not more than 3 TBs

[left cedar]

eyes problem fixed

[forest palm]

giving Imp an LA9 would make a world of difference

[wind hazel]

yes

[slow barn]

Someone can tell me if w15-4 have subs?

[wind hazel]

yes

[left cedar]

14 and 15 follow same thing
3 and 4 have SSs

[slow barn]

[sullen birch]

Ok
So that's how to build that one
The second one

[wind hazel]

dont uh, dont look at this one

[wind hazel]

look at this one, this the correct one lol

[sullen birch]

Ok
Sooo
What the best one

[sullen birch]

Ok

[wind hazel]

can be further adjusted if you have other planes to play with, like la9 or vit2

[sullen birch]

It will take me time Intel to get the other stuff

[left cedar]

my pic is a rich resourcers for same fleet, but can be futher improved if skyraiders and rld tech i guess

[sullen birch]

@wind hazel so far I have two UR planes

Both of them are bombers

@wind hazel is their way (without sending photos) that you guys can see me ship loudout

[stark quiver]

no

[wind hazel]

no indeed, share what you have instead

just uh...

write down what you have i guess

[plain saffron]

Hi

[stark quiver]

meow

[plain saffron]

Nyaa

Anything new next patch?

[stark quiver]

just rerun & archive

[sullen birch]

@wind hazel well for planes
They are outdated tigercat fighter's bombers , the old and trusty purple bomber + the two UR bombers one is sakura empire and the other is skyrider

[stark quiver]

use your power of imagination mori

[sullen birch]

Torp bomber
Kinda mix , sakura/iron blood

[whole crypt]

tigercats are fine flapjacks don't do any better

[wind hazel]

😭 i ragret

what do you need to kill?

[sullen birch]

Really
Some one told me to make one more
I have one already

[tranquil dagger]

Just unlocked the gear lab, what should I prioritise if anything?

[wind hazel]

wyvern

[tranquil dagger]

Where's that under?

[stark quiver]

royal navy torpedo bomber

[tranquil dagger]

nvm found it

[sullen birch]

Oh yeah
I forgot I also have that one

[whole crypt]

flapjacks are conditionally cheaper than tigercats and have better AA which is useful mostly for ch15, but otherwise they both do the same surface damage and it doesn't really that much which you make

[wind hazel]

im out bye

[sullen birch]

Goodbye lad

[sullen birch]

Ok

Sooo
Not really what I need
I'm looking for the big daddy of planes XD

[whole crypt]

that depends on what you're using the plane for

[sullen birch]

Well
I have good mob cleaner
So mostly bosses

Especially in opsi

[whole crypt]

that still depends on what boss you're fighting

and which carriers you use them on

[bleak nymph]

This new event, do we know yet if pull or skip?

[whole crypt]

rerun, build with tickets, don't need to pull hard

[boreal wagon]

and the other actually new teased event we dont know anything about yet

[whole crypt]

if you're talking about the new event next week we have no idea

[viscid swift]

We don't get leaks of any kind in AL

[whole crypt]

chances are SRs going to be SR and nothing spectacular but we get oddballs, also depends on whether your current roster needs it,

[turbid marsh]

usually you ll know 12 hours before the event if you are en server XD because we have cn datamine

[left cedar]

i kinda doubt a new faction out of thin air gona change anything in meta like that ...

[turbid marsh]

then again, ships typically need testing with full skills as well, so that is like in a week into the event especially if you have complicated skills and calculations like z52, raff, and stuff

[viscid swift]

Something Something speed bumb to France

[sullen birch]

Is vanguard coming back
I need her

[stark quiver]

We have a new event?

[whole crypt]

archive, she'll be in perma pity

[eager marsh]

are pr ships need mlb to be useful?

[sullen birch]

I might pull on her
I have around 400 cubes

[whole crypt]

not this week

[whole crypt]

that is a horrible idea

[stark quiver]

Is gonna be ur?

[whole crypt]

is it going to be CN anniv?

[stark quiver]

Is it?

[boreal wagon]

unlikely given CN anniv is "right" after

[left cedar]

w8 4 it

[whole crypt]

no.

[stark quiver]

[left cedar]

we know same u know

[sullen birch]

Really?

[whole crypt]

yes

[tame jungle]

yes

[sullen birch]

I'm getting flashbacks from your profile photo

[left cedar]

she has my first waifu, and it will be till end

[boreal wagon]

it?

[sullen birch]

Intel she freezes you and kills both of you

[left cedar]

sorry sir, but i'm not EN native, so i will commit few erros here and there

[whole crypt]

I mean if your perma UR pity isn't empty and you can just MLB Vanguard right out of the gate maybe? but there's no particular reason to pull hard for her now

[boreal wagon]

especially with CN anniv upcoming

[sullen birch]

@left cedar I watched the anime
And I kinda regret it

[boreal wagon]

this isnt exactly a channel for chit chatting

[left cedar]

kinda here is not place to talk about that
but i'm inclined to anime final, cuz i do care about Esdeath only, so she ends happier in anime, so better 4 me

[sullen birch]

Well
I need another BB in my fleet
I have good ones
But they are already in other fleets

[polar lion]

Dmg dealer yea. Tanks liek Agir can make do as early as D15 + max skills

[whole crypt]

there's no context here
does Vanguard even fit that BB slot you want
why not move BBs from the other fleet

[sullen birch]

Sorry lads

[sullen birch]

Wait

[left cedar]

Vang is a buffer for BBs, she works but newer ships like Soy, Bis2 and others newrs taken her place due to higher dmg... Vang have a low dmg even if compared to fewer SR BBs... Owari does more than her for example

[sullen birch]

@whole crypt these what I have

[left cedar]

not ironically, my Thurin does quite close dmg to Vang... and she is a Elite ship with really low stats and worsen skills if compared to Vang

[hollow gust]

That's just copium

[left cedar]

and here we go

ok, u are right Gray

i give up, let me get back my state

[whole crypt]

I can see Vanguard making the third in a UR BB fleet but can you actually LB her out of the gate

[sullen birch]

Yeah
I kinda have alot of bulins
Not that much but decent number

[hollow gust]

You can rig a Hood to do similar damage to UVH

[sullen birch]

Well
Bismarck is in another fleet
I will get fridec in another time

[left cedar]

each Arby is this month ?

[whole crypt]

do you actually have an idea of the fleet setup after getting Vanguard or do you think just getting her for the sake of it will help

[sullen birch]

@whole crypt this is opsi fleets

[sullen birch]

Can you show me

[hollow gust]

You will prob benefit from Vanguard

[left cedar]

strange fleets, Bis2 without other BBs to get benefit from blackhole
BB Fleets witout buffers
Ibuki wihtout others to help her burst
VV without others RNs

[hollow gust]

Musashi Bismarck Vanguard

haku shinano implacable eventually

[left cedar]

emden buffing only Bis2

at this point imo put Musa/Bis2/Brun/Agir/Helena/Emden
Shin/Haky/Enty/Roon(cuz no other that i know)/Kaza/Sirius

[sullen birch]

The second fleet yes
The first one I'm not use
I was thinking vanguard, muscahi, Frederic

[left cedar]

mobbing maybe
Hood/Uni/VV?

[sullen birch]

No
Monarch, uni, independence

That's the future mob fleet
Oh wait
Retrofit independence

[soft raft]

huh why not Hood instead of Monarch

[left cedar]

i'm not gona dive into it ...

[sullen birch]

I like Monarch barrage and to be honest I also like her
Same for hood but I prefer her

[soft raft]

Hood has 100% barrage proc chance w/ unique aug tho
Meanwhile Monarch is stuck at 70% max

[hollow gust]

Question is wheres the FdG

[sullen birch]

Oh ok

[left cedar]

in my heart

[sullen birch]

Yeah
Well I left the game for long time
The last ship I was building (didn't finish it) was drake

[hollow gust]

Cause brunhilde is kinda useless outside of light , you might have to use monarch for heavy and med

[left cedar]

not useless, she does quite well for a BC ... one of the highest gold BCs dmg ... and not much far from top SR BBs

btw, better than Vang solo DMG with no doubt on it

[hollow gust]

That's just not true

[sullen birch]

I'm building UR CV now

[zenith heron]

I just see her as a buffer for Alvitr imo

[hollow gust]

People have such a habit of nerfing Vanguards's damage in order to support other BBs that suddenly she has poor damage

[left cedar]

several restains on me and as u can see it ... she does quite well in Heavy, and better than most BCs

[silk helm]

whens the next UR?

[left cedar]

so i'm using Vang wrong all this time, cuz she does get +13 gears like others in her fleet

[eternal basalt]

Next month

[whole crypt]

you don't need to intentionally nerf Vanguard's damage most of the time you just use the same gun, she'll do less self damage but people forget her buff margin

[sweet delta]

You know a BB or BC is quite sad in boss damage if she can't even beat Odin

[jaunty vault]

Odin appreciation in gph poggies

[sweet delta]

According to magic, VG does like 25% more than monarch and bruen on heavium

[sullen birch]

What does her buff do ?

[sweet delta]

Read her skill to find out

[sullen birch]

I don't have her lad
Let me check her on wiki

@sweet delta is it yellow one or red one ?

[sweet delta]

Read all of them because why not

[hollow gust]

Brunhilde is one of my favorite BCs and I have her 125, but hyping her outside of light is

[sullen birch]

Ok
Seems good
But the yellow and blue other buffs for royal navy ships

[normal cedar]

am I missing out on any important rewards other than guild coins by not being in a guild and using the public guild? no one's accepting my request I applied to like 30 till now

[jaunty vault]

T4 plates are pretty important

[hollow gust]

2x 18 gold plates every month

If you are in Avrora I can help you, otherwise use the discord forum

[river junco]

Lots of good stuff in guild shop (and guild tech)

[left cedar]

if Lexy i can help week days ...

[eternal basalt]

Guild ammends also cost less (and depending on guild, can go higher)

[normal cedar]

sandy is a dead server? not a single guild recruitment post in over 30 days in discord forum either

[sweet delta]

Apply to my server

2/3 of it is dead but we still do everything

[eternal basalt]

Posting there just leads to bans

[sweet delta]

I meant guild

[normal cedar]

um I cant find a link to your guild in the #1246721562741178410 ?

[sweet delta]

u rite just dm

[jaunty vault]

u can trust suchigummy

[polar lion]

Who are the top gold BBs again? DoriMe, Magato and who else?

[hollow gust]

For what

[sweet delta]

Owari daisen flandre

[hollow gust]

Stella best BC

[left cedar]

Owari da

[polar lion]

Oh yea I liek Stella too

[jaunty vault]

constellation

[left cedar]

Brun here

[jaunty vault]

wehraboo be like

[left cedar]

naah, if u restrain to certain things, best Gold BB and Gold CV gona be SN and IJN

[hollow gust]

Sakuras have extremly mediocre SRCVs

[polar lion]

Dun really see people talk much bout Daisen. Y is she good?

[hollow gust]

Like taihou is their best gold CV

[left cedar]

its about performance or like ?
cuz if performance i kinda agree, be like then ...

[hollow gust]

[atomic abyss]

daisen? simply put it's reliably good damage by gold BB standards

well, i say good
but i believe she ranks the top few amongst gold BB DPS

[hollow gust]

Very very good campaign BB

[atomic abyss]

we take 100% proc rate barrage BBs for granted

[left cedar]

Gold BBs are worse than UR BBs, and we got ALOT of them ... so not much pplaces to use them, so no much talk about them

[polar lion]

Oo

[left cedar]

C6 Abyss
CA One ...
lacking others Med or Heavy C6 right now ...
in light i cant sync Thurin correctly to FdG so...

[hollow gust]

Testing on Enforcers is yikes

[left cedar]

so w8 2 months and maybe i will remember and re done test ...

[hollow gust]

Barley any hp, which more often then not it's extremly baised to certain firing times

[left cedar]

next days are holidays here and i'm not gona be on my home ... so no PC and several hours of gameplay

Thurin is the First one in 2nd and fowards fires

Vang does fire first in 1st salvos

gears ...
and yeah, if i use 457 on all them not sync with Helena and thurin it will be slower asf

[polar lion]

Tfw the tank of choice nowadays are DDs. How times hav changed

[hollow gust]

[left cedar]

DDs are all around for quite time ... since ppl around world start to cry DDs are useless
look at several DDs close to Laff2 ... they are bulk, and avg to really gud AA dmg

close in time ... not tier

[eternal basalt]

All USS cause a single item... all it needs to change is another such item.

[left cedar]

u just wanna poke me with Vang doing close to FdG in low roll ?
try again, not enough

[hollow gust]

You lowrolles and rigged vanguard

Vanguard is closer to fdg then Thuringen is to vanguard

[whole crypt]

just take 10% of everyone's damage and add to VG

[polar lion]

Maybe u can test without Ply since she buffs flag?

[left cedar]

the thing is
Thurin x Vang
so FdG being buffed by Ply dosnt change much the point

[left cedar]

where ? she have a +13 mle
+13 auxs as well

[left cedar]

takeout 8% FdG and add to Thurin

w8, 12%
8% its EVA debuff

[hollow gust]

Run it against actual bosses like harby or meta and you will see how shit the damage will be

[left cedar]

kinda hard to againts Harby ... Harby Hermit it will delete her from existence b4 she fires last salvo
harby strenght just puff this VG

actuall META can work, cuz they can survive till end ...

[hollow gust]

Z52 shouldn't be dying to Hermit. Score last salvo

[left cedar]

Hermit delete Thurin
not 52

[hollow gust]

Your backline shouldn't be getting damaged heavily

[left cedar]

less tha 7k hp with really low eva

u really belive Thurin it will survive ?

[honest sequoia]

Does anyone How many tenrai should I have atleast

[whole crypt]

ideally 2-3

[left cedar]

1-3

[hollow gust]

Nothing should be dying against harby

[honest sequoia]

Should I research it or gear lab it
Cuz I bought one from protocore

[left cedar]

i did mention they can work

[whole crypt]

how done are you with PR4

[left cedar]

i did mention Thurin not gona last with Hermit, and Strenght it will kill VG b4 last salvo

[honest sequoia]

I’m already done it
Have both agir haku at dev30

Im on pr5 rn

[whole crypt]

shop all spent? any prints left in depot?

[honest sequoia]

Well protocore I can buy 21 more prints of tenrai

Cuz I have 0 prints rn for tenrai unless I gear lab it

[whole crypt]

you could consider doing a gear focus on PR4 until you finish Hakuryuu's FS, hopefully you can finish another copy with the 21 prints in shop

[hollow gust]

Idk what you are doing against hermit that she somehow kills your backline , that's honestly kinda impressive . Either way you can even run that comp at Hornet and your waifus aren't gonna beat Vanguard

[whole crypt]

because at this point that's just 21 prints wasted there

[cobalt rapids]

just dont buy the prints

[honest sequoia]

So what should I even do 😭

[whole crypt]

that works too, it's not like the Tenrai is that high priority

[cobalt rapids]

just gearlab another one and live with 2 for a good while

[left cedar]

Cuz Thurin its really fragile ... its hard to notice than a 20+25 EVA with less than 7k HP is shit ?

[honest sequoia]

I mainly want another tenrai cuz I can’t sync perfectly with my triple CV fleet with just one tenrai

[whole crypt]

29 prints is like maybe 1.5 to 2 months, it can be something you come back to when you're done with other series, but by then you could probably just craft in lab

[honest sequoia]

Sounds about right thanks

[whole crypt]

eh, timing's not that far off using a helldiver

[hollow gust]

You can run normal helldivers just fine

[cobalt rapids]

theres many timing tools to play around with like the 4 conv tb and the auxes

[honest sequoia]

https://mrlar.dev/s/9cccbc10aa20ba502a7b767a9f7dc061a46e426e
i did and this is my best

I have 2 junker 2 saiun 4 ryusei tons of helldiver and 1 Tenrai

this is the best sync between my cv strike i can do

[atomic abyss]

well

[whole crypt]

and that's good enough

[atomic abyss]

firstly haku always wants ternrai over shinano

[hollow gust]

That's not that bad , more the sufficient

[atomic abyss]

but yes sufficient

[hollow gust]

Although yeah haku gets tenrai, nano damage comes from the x4 torp slot

[whole crypt]

actually swapping the Tenrai and Helldiver might make timings better

[honest sequoia]

i dont have tiger cat and that black TB

[hollow gust]

Swap tenrai and helldiver for this and you got your comp

[honest sequoia]

well i have flapjack

[whole crypt]

yeh swapping tenrai into Hakuryuu and giving Shinano Helldiver is fine

[honest sequoia]

what ablout implac
i cant craft that 2 TB yet and i dont have tiger cat
but i have pancake

[hollow gust]

Use your comp

You did a good job on it , and you don't have those planes anyway

[cobalt rapids]

i wouldnt recommend 5 ryuuseis at +13

[honest sequoia]

oh none of my CV planes are +13 yet

[hollow gust]

Yeah maxing 3 should be your limit

[cobalt rapids]

this is good enough for 4 strike and it doesnt use more than 2 of each plane

[hollow gust]

I think that does worst damage lmao

[cobalt rapids]

not if the planes are +13 which is the point

[hollow gust]

The best slots are taken by saiuns

For now maxing 3 ryuuseis , and giving the non +13 planes on the weaker slots is good enough

Maxing all those planes are gonna take a while anyway

[cobalt rapids]

i wouldnt max 3 ryuuseis

[hollow gust]

You will have uses for them one way or another , I personally got 4

[cobalt rapids]

i personally got 2 and never needed more

[honest sequoia]

i mean i ahve like 800 CV plates which im hoarding cuz i wanna make sure i have a good CV airstrike sync

[cobalt rapids]

u shouldnt max planes according to 1 synced setup and thats enough to cover like 6 gold planes and abit

[honest sequoia]

so idk what plane to +13 yet

[eager mulch]

I maxed 6 ryuuseis

[cobalt rapids]

very nice turtle

[wind hazel]

the sixseis

[eager mulch]

then they released vit bloo 😔

[honest sequoia]

so like is there any priority planes for +13

[eager mulch]

id figure out timings before +13 planes

[cobalt rapids]

depends but as far as conv tb go ideally around 1-2 of each excluding the vit2s

[left cedar]

800 gold plates arent enough to 3 La-9, 2 skyriders and 5 Tenrais

[cobalt rapids]

luckily u shouldnt +13 that many rainbow planes either way

[honest sequoia]

so like 2 max ryusei and junker?

[left cedar]

120 per gold
360 per Rainbow

[sweet delta]

I +13'd ten rainbow planes

[cobalt rapids]

saiun/ju/ryuu

[sweet delta]

What about viti

[eager mulch]

i +13’d two TENrai

[left cedar]

gud to have at least 2 Vit2 +13

[cobalt rapids]

vitii is lower prio than the others imo because its more niche

[whole crypt]

I still regret +13ing the second skyraider

[left cedar]

i still need few tenrais to have all my waifus with Tenrais, in a extreme long run, all waifus gona have +13 BiS gears URs

[cobalt rapids]

same but i use a magic trick to achieve that

[eager mulch]

can’t regret +13 2nd skyraider if you never got second skyraider

[left cedar]

i wouldnt call Viti niche, since her can fit several trics to make the quicker slower and help u to sync ...

[minor kraken]

Is biscuit graf and parseval as main fleet good?

[eager mulch]

I wouldn’t use such a backline personally

[cobalt rapids]

its nicher because of its flight speed which kinda makes it not usable on the last cv

[left cedar]

nope
even if u are a KMS maniac and wanna for all the reasons use KMS ones, GZ shouldnt be there
and it will be
Bis/Rumy/AvP
with Bis2 buffing them

[eager marsh]

can you farm specific gear plate? my aux plate stock is really disproportionate to the other plates

[minor kraken]

What would you recommend?

[sweet delta]

Chapter 11 is bad for aux plates iirc

[eager mulch]

idk what you have or are trying to do

[minor kraken]

Only IB ships

[eager mulch]

disgusting

[left cedar]

its normal ... i got like 3x Guns and TRPs than i got Auxs

[eager mulch]

esdeath is the only cool KMS simp imo

[left cedar]

[boreal wagon]

[left cedar]

"but i dun have Rumy"
so Peter over GZ

[cobalt rapids]

also early on faster planes are generally better due to the lack of tech and better helena sync
and later on are on par because they still provide the option for 4 striking

[left cedar]

"but for all reasons i wanna use GZ"
so yeah, with this than u should use Bis/GZ/AvP

[minor kraken]

Ok and if i dont have peter?

Any other IB ship you recommend

[left cedar]

for wut exactly ?

Op.Si boss ?
campaign ?
mob?

[minor kraken]

Only IB ships Just for fun

[left cedar]

arigathanx

[left cedar]

still specify uses ... cuz the more specific better xp u will have

[eager mulch]

my kms faction fleet involves amagi-chan

[cobalt rapids]

esdeath can maybe help you to put up the best IB team in a thread

[left cedar]

i can, but i have to start to prepare to work in 1h and 47m

[eager mulch]

plenty of time

[viscid swift]

So best IB fleet for what

[cobalt rapids]

general content

[honest sequoia]

so technically here its safe to +13 saiun ju and ryusei here?

[left cedar]

i just hate that
cuz that dosnt exist ... specially for a faction without a healer and lacking for true specialized "buffers" like Helena, ARAs etc...

[sweet delta]

And graf zep is stronger than Peter unless maybe if peter allows an extra strike without griefing plans too hard

[eager mulch]

[cobalt rapids]

safe as far as conv tb go but maybe not the best as far as plane prio goes

[left cedar]

PS: i really like KMS being a fleet without a healer, please keep that way

[honest sequoia]

Also how do you know that setup you made is 4 strikes
Where can i see it

[left cedar]

idk about that in bosses, cuz Peter and AvP does quite well in my test times ago if compared to AvP/GZ or even worse GZ/Peter

[cobalt rapids]

its not
4 strikes refer usually to 4 airstrike launches within the usual hard boss battle timer which is meta showdown
all 4 strikes from showdown work on harbi because they have 10s longer but u have more leniency so u can 4 strike with harder planes there
for cvs its usually under 20s to 4 strike

and showdown timer is 77s + ~1.5s of rld

[honest sequoia]

so this setup is only 4 strike if its META showdown / hardbiter?

well i mean this CV fleet im only using it in OpSi

[sweet delta]

👴 graf zep has an augment

[left cedar]

one Aug that does help in giantic scale of AoE, but not focused so not converged into dmg as Peter naturally does

[cobalt rapids]

also for example in ur timing the cvs will be alr out and miss the helena scan by 2nd rotation
thats another reason why saiuns and jus reign

[honest sequoia]

im sry but im VERY bad at CV building 💔

yea thats why i use Kaza and sirius

[sweet delta]

Graf does a lot more focused damage than peter

[left cedar]

i'm not a tryhard as i'm years ago ... and i'm not gona start a debate with that scale cuz i dont have time neither will to do test

specially with the guy that does beat me on my on speciallity

[wind hazel]

just beat him back

[cobalt rapids]

you can get away by just following this most of the time :

1. look at the armor
2. consult the cheeky flowchart for planes based on armor
3. make the cvs within 0.2s of each other with the freezer in the middle while following the flowchart to the best of ur ability ( 0.2s is safe for most loadouts for 4 airstrikes to be synced, longer battles need tighter sync than 0.2 )
4. cvs need ~4s to drop all their ordnance if it involves tbs, less than that if no tb loadout so just keep that in mind when checking lars calc ( for example checking if last airstrike makes it or if they are within other windows like helena scan )
   thats it

[honest sequoia]

That make sense now thanks

[left cedar]

naah, i'm a old, and old guys have to give space to newer and better that are comming in
Suchi is a gud player and have will and patiente to does test and share with ur guys
and better than me he does alot less BIAS towards thing he like ... so i'm just retiring and accepting my place as a old guy

[minor kraken]

They are supposed to be the mob fleet

[left cedar]

so imo GZ is almost a obligational, cuz DRs, UvH does nice since she does fires alot if compared to others BBs helping with mob cleaning, but dosnt work to campaign cuz her own debuff on herself and with no ammo debuff its 0 DMG deal
so Op.Si and Campaign gona be diff, specially in W13 and W14 cuz gimmicks of this maps

Op.Si
Bis2 or FdG/GZ/UvH/Hein/Emden/Hindy should do the trick
but without a healer they arent enough to beat stronghold and u have to heal them manually with boxes or in port

Campaign gona change in 13 and 15, W14 also a challenge (well, not totally sure rn with newers DDs)

[minor kraken]

Thx a lot

[eager mulch]

gph fight?

[little plinth]

what's the strongest CV fleet for opsi now?

[left cedar]

campaign in general
FdG/GZ/Bis2/Z52/Emden/Hindy
W13/W15 u wanna AA output so
something like
Bis2/Rumy/GZ/Z52/Felix?/Otto?
W14 u wanna more dmg in surface, but u cant forgot about planes cuz hidden bar even for BBs
so something like
FdG/Rumy/GZ/Agir/Otto/52

btw, i have stopped in time after i got beaten in KMS Challenge, so not sure with this fleets, need tests to 100% accurate

[minor kraken]

I'll test some of them

[cobalt rapids]

depends on ur goal

[eager mulch]

to win

[cobalt rapids]

kear/yk2, soyuz/nahki, amagi, rumey, implac, nano are among the top options depending on the battle
idk what u want tho, the fastest ? ( depends on harbi ) one that does everything then just slap 3 rainbows and helena and they fall over

[little plinth]

uh I guess something that can consistently one shot harbiter ideally?

I'm able to kill the lvl 6 abyssal nodes without an issue, I have all the rainbow CVs just not sure what the best combo is

right now i have shinano/amagi/avp (just got implacable because little enty) but was thinking of changing it up

[cobalt rapids]

maybe soyuz nahkimov amagi for general content

[atomic abyss]

the issue is, the best fleet for arbiter depends on which arbiter it is

there are 3 different arbiters

each with different armour types

[little plinth]

ah that's true

[atomic abyss]

there isnt a 1 CV fleet fits all

[little plinth]

maybe an ideal fleet for each one then? so I can save it somewhere for later

[atomic abyss]

implacable amagi shinano for heavy

soyuz nakhimov rumey for med

kears yk2 implacable for light

soy nakh rum can also work for light btw

[viscid swift]

curious, do you not value Ruppchrect at all?

[left cedar]

i did state i have BIAS, and that works even inside KMS
as u can see i dont have much xp with DDs, that include KMS ones as well, i also dosnt like Rupp much ... but i know she does quite well, specially in W14 and W15 cuz her gimmick

[arctic sail]

Hello

I want the best team depending on my dock

[left cedar]

in AL dosnt exist "best fleet" without a "use"
Mob, Boss, and boss are generally separeted by armor type, so Light, Med and Heavy
also campaign have different gimmicks in W13, W14 and W14 so diff fleets are needed

also i'm short on time to help, need to start to prepare for work in few minutes

[arctic sail]

I want it for operation siren and campaign

[left cedar]

UR ships without MLB are worse than SR with MLB ... that said from a quick look u need a deep work into ur ships to work smoothly

[whole crypt]

best fleet depends not only on which of the three arbs, it also depends on the month because some mods screw over some comps specifically

[arctic sail]

New jersey 5 stars i need just one ur to mlb

[left cedar]

nice NN

[whole crypt]

but if SoyNak is innately an anti-med comp that can walk over temperance "best fleet" is pretty much moot

[left cedar]

yeah, but in general u shouldnt focus in NJ, focus into Shin cuz many uses

[whole crypt]

you probably still want proper anti-heavy for Hermit

[left cedar]

nntk please helpo this guy, i need to leave into few minuts, and i cant help him with time i got

[arctic sail]

Thank u esdeath

[whole crypt]

and I need to sleep it's half past 3 and I have work tomorrow

[arctic sail]

Lol

Thanks all guys no problem

[turbid marsh]

mob and boss right?

[arctic sail]

Yeah

[whole crypt]

campaign also which chapter but yeh I'mma

[arctic sail]

Im in ch8

[turbid marsh]

oh if thats all the things you have, i recommend you not touch opsi for now.... cause basing on your levels and ships, you are not ch9 yet

[left cedar]

gud night

idk about not touch into Op.Si ... its way to getter resourcers, even with weak fleets u can push to montly reset ...

[turbid marsh]

try to look into hard mode and full clear, i think there is a guide for that on how to 3 star a stage with 1 run. grab that unicorn retrofit and nelson retrofit. after that you can try to clear opsi

[left cedar]

u can not focusing too much cuz its a time needed, specially with weak fleets, but if u manage to have time do it

[arctic sail]

In general im stuck in the operation siren

Im facing enemeies at lvl90+

[viscid swift]

Alright then

[left cedar]

that isnt something that is probelmatic, i did beat the Op.Si with beggining ships and lvl 100 ships ... and budget gears ... but gud ones

[viscid swift]

First off, how many UR bullins can you get or have

[left cedar]

[viscid swift]

how many UR Bullins can you get if any?

[left cedar]

well, time to go, till other day guys
have a nice day/night

[eternal basalt]

It's close to CN anni enough to keep 4 or 8 bullins in reserve for that (or even 12 for BisII)

[bleak nymph]

BisII rerun after cn anni?

[normal cedar]

you reckon they might have 2 urs like last time? i hv 5 urbuli rn hope ill have 8 by then in that case...

[viscid swift]

who knows, it may be before

[viscid swift]

It's certainly a possibility
and not an unlikely one

[eternal basalt]

After, dunno exactly when.

Last year there was a month between CN and the UR rerun

2 years ago it was instantanious

Okay, 1 rest week, but still...

[rocky tinsel]

Between Vanguard, Bis Zwei, and Alscace, and with two admiralty fire control tables, who gets the fire control tables, and who should stick with black shell?

I think

[sweet delta]

Depends on the battle and sync and order you want . Also HSFCR is an option too

[rocky tinsel]

I have Alscace almost as a sure thing.

Sorry, am doing exercise comp

Forgot to mention.

[sweet delta]

For exercise you ask #pvp but likely all three get afct or HSFCR. With vanguard getting HSFCR because her damage is the least important

[rocky tinsel]

Oh perfect, sorry I didn't know about that channel

[bleak nymph]

How many vit-2 planes should I aim to have

[hollow gust]

4 prob

[jaunty vault]

pr5 or pr7 vit2?

[little plinth]

PR7 I think

[jaunty vault]

[frail haven]

hello, not sure if its the right place to post this but has anyone else experienced this? lately since a month ago, on LDPlayer, i get stuck on this screen after every single battle within a sortie and have to restart the app to get to the next battle, its really annoying

changing fleets sometimes makes it not freeze

[jaunty vault]

might be something to do with the battle ui
ldplayer works fine for me atleast

also ldplayer1

[frail haven]

hmm ill try to resolve it ty

[jaunty vault]

its just a guess

there could be multiple factors

[frail haven]

yeah makes sense, i will try to fiddle with the settings

ty

yeah strangely changing fleets fixes it so it seems related to a character in my fleet 1, ill make a post on bug reports i guess

[jaunty vault]

[frail haven]

[jaunty vault]

if you pinpoint the issue, its better to open a ticket

[frail haven]

ahh I see

[jaunty vault]

by doing !submit

[frail haven]

okay ty very much

[eternal basalt]

Use /logmode and post the resulting error in #tech-support

[frail haven]

hmm okay sounds good I will try to do that

[quick mason]

Why do this 😞🥀

[hollow gust]

??

[storm heron]

🤠 🥀

[tame jungle]

i can feel the pain in his fihh... 💔
hard mode is done for core data and retrofit blueprints, pretty important materials

[naive parcel]

Quick question, if nobody in the vanguard has a lower anti air than Scylla, does the skill activates?

[viscid swift]

well the conditions aren't met so no

[quick mason]

3 star yet 68%

[forest palm]

that's normal...

honestly don't know what more you want...

[hollow gust]

map clear is very different from completing stars

[viscid swift]

Yep

[quick mason]

Sheesh why :(

[hollow gust]

why are you complaing about something that benefits you?

[quick mason]

Can't sortie

[hollow gust]

[quick mason]

Wait what are the benefits?

[hollow gust]

you only need to 3 star for hardmode? its a benefit not needing to clear. of all the things to complain about

[quick mason]

But I can't sortie if it's not 100%

[stark quiver]

The benefits are being able to start auto clear

[quick mason]

You can sortie without 100%?

[stark quiver]

You really did it just for the bps

[viscid swift]

no, it was for the cog chips

[stark quiver]

Understandable

[quick mason]

Dawg

[stark quiver]

Woof

[quick mason]

Wan

[viscid swift]

so I could get the 3 star rewards in fewer days

I was really desperate for cogs

[quick mason]

What's cogs?

[viscid swift]

cognitive chips

[forest palm]

me ignoring HM star rewards like my problems

[quick mason]

cognitive ships? Dawg my bad im too dumb to know 🥀

[forest palm]

"155" damn...

[stark quiver]

Cheekys actually struggling holy

[quick mason]

Ohhh I read it wrong wtf is wrong with my brain 😞🥀

But still 155? Bro how many ships did you build just to drain your Cogs?

[forest palm]

[viscid swift]

over 410 at 120+

[stark quiver]

Peak

[viscid swift]

and another 70+ with XP banked to get to 120

[quick mason]

Peak

[stark quiver]

Do you also go to high enough meta fight pt to get the cogs

[viscid swift]

always

[quick mason]

I'm still focusing on my 2 fleets while my books are being drained by UR ships

[stark quiver]

Also is your hornet mlb

[viscid swift]

yes

[hollow gust]

should be dumping books into weaker ships. URs are feasy asf to level

[quick mason]

3 more to go oh my god

[stark quiver]

I’m at 12k pts lol

[quick mason]

I just finished vanguard

[weak dust]

I can't beat arbiter hard modeeeee aaaaa

Idk how to improve without getting gear lab stuff which i don't have the mats for

I already got the 203+ adaptability

I just really need a 3rd and 4th fleet, my builds are in 2nd thread down

[viscid swift]

at least you're doing better at PvP, I overcapped twice the past few days

[weak dust]

Got help from abdou

[viscid swift]

that's gonna dent my bullin income

[stark quiver]

I overcapped every single set since the weekend

[quick mason]

What are best RN main gun for vanguard?

[stark quiver]

Why rn specifically

[quick mason]

I only have one though

[viscid swift]

why do you need a royal navy gun

[quick mason]

For vanguard

[viscid swift]

yeah I'm saying I don't know why you'd need that for her
