[wind hazel]

yes

[meager tiger]

also damn, 2 years gone and still no yamato

inb4 yamato banner before 2030

what abt gearing

meta for bbs still fire control radar and white shell? assuming admiralty table and other ur or niche equipment is being used or doesnt apply

[wind hazel]

same aux, just different guns

there are sidegrade to champy gun, and raf gun is BiS for medium bar none

[meager tiger]

mfw purple 406 was actually viable

[meager tiger]

what is rafgun

[wind hazel]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Triple_406mm_(Improved_Model_1940_Prototype)

[meager tiger]

semi ap im assuming

[wind hazel]

came with Raffaello

[woven star]

Kazagumo, Hood is most notable ships on screen. Franklin same as Enterprise value as what I heard. Depends what you have else. Nothing special else on what I've seen on this picture

[meager tiger]

i just need to get adequate opsi fleets going

[wind hazel]

well opsi hasn't changed, so what worked still work now

[meager tiger]

i forgot what worked

last thing i remember doing was running some crazy ass fleet with jeanne d arc and triple bb or sm

[wind hazel]

[muted acorn]

Thanks!

[honest sequoia]

Years ago she was t0 or t1 😔

Times has changed

[sinful escarp]

ikr, she was recommended back then because her shelling was strong

[honest sequoia]

Well technically that’s her whole dmg

She’s does little to nothing except for shelling dmg only

[sinful escarp]

yep, hency why she is powercrept

[honest sequoia]

Im still warspite enjoyer in 2025
(It’s bcuz I stopped AL for 3 years so I don’t have the good UR bbs)

[meager tiger]

warspite was irrelevant when her retrofit came out and it barely got her through the door then

[sweet delta]

Enterprise does nothing but equipped plane damage so she must be powercrept right?

[meager tiger]

unless im misremembering when they dropped her retrofit

once NJ came along it was joever

then uvh and musashi

[honest sequoia]

I mean, atleast she have Lucky E to proc 2x dmg

Give Lucky E skill to warspite then she’ll be No1 Tier EX

[drowsy sequoia]

should i build her

[meager tiger]

is there a way to condense my dockyard into an organized list or something, because i have over 600 ships and i dont wanna send like 50 screenshots

i just need fleets for opsi

and clearing w15

[honest sequoia]

theres a filter option

[wind hazel]

filter out elite and below

[tranquil dagger]

do opsi missions contribute to stored proficiency?

[warped acorn]

should i replace long island to sevastopol

[meager tiger]

still had to take 10 screenshots but this is all i have at 120 or above

[terse roost]

How much money do you need to reach dev level 30 from level 25

[light trail]

is HSFCR preferred over super heavy shell only for timing adjustment?

[worldly pewter]

usually BBs have low hit stats and the radar provides it

making the black shell used for timing and not the other way around

[light trail]

ahh, so HSFCR should be used more often?

bc currently i have my BB fleet with all white/black shells (except musashi who has white shell/rainbow table)

[dreamy blade]

if you aren't trying to sync to a specific timing/Helena then yeah can't go wrong with white shell + hsfcr

[light trail]

gotcha

[dreamy blade]

Except maybe on warspite? Lmao bc she has unusually high HIT stat

[late flame]

lol using warspite

[dreamy blade]

Not that warspite is relevant

[mild heath]

So i kind of figured out how to unlock skills for Meta ships (feel pretty dumb for not noticing it) but my question is if i should focus on one of those? cause i noticed the skills seem to level up pretty easily.

[late flame]

yellow meta ships for the most part are good
purple meta ships are collection / tech only

[dreamy blade]

I haven't started leveling any of the meta ships with good tech but I have their skills maxed for the most part bc yeah it's pretty easy

not sure if you meant focus on a ship to use or focus on a skill to level

[honest sequoia]

Hey that’s not nice (I’m coping)

[mild heath]

I unlocked some stuff on Yamashiro META btw. (i think i should check some wiki stuff)

[late flame]

i feel you.. because i have no idea when i bought this
(i joined AL late dec2022 so it could be one of my drunken purchase i dunno)

[mild heath]

The sword is for Warspite

[left cedar]

Mamashiro is only for RLD Tech ... can be used if waifu in easy content, but not ideal even so, cuz she is expenssivier than OG Yamas

[tropic tusk]

its her retrofit item

[woven star]

For some meta 80 sec fights it can be critical to make last 4th bbs shot. 15% can help with it

Near 20 sec bb gun cd plus 1.25 sec delay between bb.. and so on

[versed forum]

what dev lvl dr ships needed to be usable?

[tropic tusk]

some at 25 if im not wrong

[tired forum]

I can put a regular Bismarck and a Bismarck Zwei in one fleet?

[late flame]

dev 30 if you are talking about FdG , Hakuryuu , Admiral Nakhimov , Hindenburg
Edit : + Plymouth , Kearsarge

tanks like Napoli, Agir, Brest can probably get away with dev 25
we dont talk about drake

[versed forum]

how about ply?

[late flame]

i would want plymouth* at dev 30 as well to get the most of her,
although as BB buffer she can probably get away with dev 20 or so

[versed forum]

thanks im thinking where to spend prints is pr6 going to coinable soon?

[rapid grail]

Yes, but when is going to be 🔮

[late flame]

your guess is as good as mine

[versed forum]

then i should work on kear or breast first

[dreamy blade]

iirc cheeky said most likely around january is when dr5/pr6 will be coinable if they stay on schedule

[late flame]

if you have yorktown2 and looking to replace Enterprise for a more consistent anti-light cv team = Kearsarge
if you are looking for a mob tank that offers some heals = Brest
or do a coin toss

[worldly pewter]

in this case u want the BB buff to be relevant for the loss of ply damage in case u have better option in the vanguard line dps wise i think

[normal cedar]

should I craft this? if yes then who to put it on

[zenith peak]

does AvP need her fs5 to be good or is she usable at just dev30 ??

[undone plover]

usable but her stop is 75% not 100%

[zenith peak]

ah ok i'll just coin her

[honest stirrup]

iirc it's just a normal torp bomber, not specific to anything. Would only be worth as slightly better than Barracuda

[undone plover]

yeah her fs5 is a bit crucial tbh
def get it asap
did u miss implacable?

[weak dust]

what does fargo drone do

[zenith peak]

nah i have her, just not adequately equipped because poverty

[undone plover]

u mean the aux gear?
it is a decent offensive aux
especially for gun oriented DD who lack a lot of offensive options

but offensive vanguard aux gear is in itself pretty niche and shouldnt be used most of the time

[terse roost]

How much moni to level pr ship from 29 to 30

[undone plover]

I see
well if u lack bulins to MLB her, AvP can work for now but if implacable is MLB then almost 0 reason to use AvP tbh

[honest stirrup]

how many days are you willing to wait

[terse roost]

1 week

Anything for my hakuryuu

[zenith peak]

she's mlb'd, just lacking on the equipments, the only reason i grinded for avp in the first place was because i wanted to clear the pr4 research

[honest stirrup]

That was good to mention because DR and PR don't have the same rates

[undone plover]

AvP is good tech at 120
so worth getting to 120 but like I said for actual difficult content just use implacable

[zenith peak]

should probably do haku after i finish adm. nakh

[terse roost]

How bout moni cuz I'm only seeing 1 of those blueprints every research I do

[warped acorn]

this bad?

[undone plover]

she is decent
nothing special
depending on your progression u might have other priority for your gold bulins tho

[warped acorn]

oh just asking cuz this guy cant let me accidentally afk peacefully when chapayev could

[late flame]

you should also save your cubes instead of randomly pulling

[warped acorn]

well i saved some and got that

[undone plover]

possible difference in limit breaks, levels gear etc
chapayev should be better damage
but not as good of a tank as adalbert

[warped acorn]

noted

[terse roost]

Anyone know when and who the next ur ship is

[undone plover]

he means save your cubes for future events
this banner is not worth spending on if u are low on cubes (less than 400)
just use the free build tickets

[warped acorn]

oh i used those free build tickets, so those carriers are bad?

[undone plover]

next new UR ship should be in 1 month
we have no idea who she will be
next rerun should be bismarck zwei
1-2 month after the new ship so maybe in June-July

[undone plover]

wdym which carriers?

[terse roost]

Not even the nationality?

[warped acorn]

that 2 rate up super rare one

[undone plover]

nope
all major servers are in sync for azur lane so we dont have any insight to the future
they usually do a stream 1 week before the event

[honest stirrup]

I'm not sure how many blueprints exactly is needed between dev29 to dev30, but 180 is needed between 25 to 30, so I'd say it's between 49 to 63
So your total coins would be between 25 200 (7 bp/day = 49) to 42 000 (9 bp/day = 63)
As you can see, buying only 2 blueprints per day increases the price almost exponentially, so I advise 6 blueprints/day until FS5

[undone plover]

they is also a stream for the upcoming event (not the CN anni UR event) but they could hint at some future content
but I wouldnt hold my breath for it

[sharp socket]

60 bp for DR, 30 bp for PR iirc

[worldly pewter]

depends if u are running low on barracuda and breguet

[terse roost]

Dr grind is breaking my heart 🥀🥀🥀

[honest stirrup]

Gyatt damn I made a rough estimation based on the increase I was seeing in increments of 5 and got it fairly close

Anyways that would mean around 40 000 total coins across 7 days

[terse roost]

Wdym

[honest stirrup]

nothing, all you need to know is that if you want to coin between dev20 to dev30, you need to buy 9 or 8 blueprints a day for a week for a total of 39-40k

[terse roost]

Bro.

[normal cedar]

are you comparing to gold barracuda? since I only have purple ones...

[terse roost]

So you're saying

I wasted 160k going from 18 to 23

[worldly pewter]

yeah gold

[normal cedar]

I see, I think Ill craft it then, thansk!

[honest stirrup]

yes, gold barracuda. They become fairly common after a while because of research

[honest stirrup]

My man, it is almost an exponential function 😭

[terse roost]

4.3 million 🥀

[honest stirrup]

(if you didn't understand what I said or what the graph means, it means that for each blueprint you add daily, the total price goes through the roof)

[terse roost]

Yeah I understand it's just that instead of buying prints I used pure gold

[honest stirrup]

4.3M is only if you want to buy EVERY blueprint needed in a single day

So as you can see your best bet is below 10 blueprints per day

[terse roost]

Where you buy em?

[rapid grail]

i personally do 10 dr bps + 15 pr bps every day

12-4 ftw

[terse roost]

Yeah but where do you buy the blue prints

[honest stirrup]

in the dev screen...?

[terse roost]

WHAT

[honest stirrup]

the tab on the right part where it's written "free"

[terse roost]

Ahhh

[honest stirrup]

Note that not all ships have this option of buying blueprints

[terse roost]

Can you elaborate please? I'm relatively new to shipyard

[forest palm]

you can't use this coin function for DR5, PR6, or PR7, simple enough

you can see it in that screen shot the 3 middle ships have a coin icon while the outer two do not

[tawdry halo]

Hi, is Kursk a good tanker

[warped acorn]

what does fleet lock do (above the auto search)

[paper walrus]

Hmm im buying 15

[honest stirrup]

I'm not your financial adviser

[honest stirrup]

makes it so you don't have the fleet composition screen and instead immediately get to fight when your fleet reaches the enemy node

[warped acorn]

hmm so this event not worth bulding 🤔

[honest stirrup]

Just use 3x tickets per day when you can and dump all tickets last day or near it if you're not confident

[warped acorn]

oh noted

[late flame]

#gameplay-help message

[warped acorn]

what does the 'hit' stats on the fire control radar means

[late flame]

[wind hazel]

[wind hazel]

it's the accuracy stats

I cant go to that

Nvm my internet was acting

[warped acorn]

this good?

[wind hazel]

not bad but if you're new, then no

[warped acorn]

alr

[hollow gust]

Honestly voro is pretty good for anyone , decently tanky and dps

[wind hazel]

yes but putting gold bulin into backline is better

[desert trellis]

is this gud for shima?

[dreamy blade]

is shimantos gun used for anything if i already have her fs5

[north totem]

coalition or solo to farm event point?

[honest sequoia]

Coalition

[worldly pewter]

yes on manual but recently no one uses her so it is whatever

[warped acorn]

i wonder what if chapayev + voroshilov (burn+icebind) 🤔

[desert trellis]

dang alright

[rapid grail]

good for manuel gameplay. not just for shima, but torper frontliners in general

[desert trellis]

ahh ic thx

[normal cedar]

is gold vit-2 better than tenzan purple for enty/franklin?

series 5 one , not the 7 one

[worldly pewter]

they do different jobs

there are 2 types of torpedo bombers
parallel such as barracuda from tech boxes wyvern from gear lab breguet from core data and vit 2 from research
they are good in campaign stages
converging such as ryuusei junkar 87 vit 2 mode change and saiun kai who are meant most of the time to be used in boss fights because of the high single target damage

tenzan is a converging torpedo bomber

[normal cedar]

Oh! I see , I did not know that
I will use both appropriately then, and keep finding better alternatives to both

Thanks!

[honest stirrup]

Also, note that converging torpedoes are a bit risky to use. The fact that they converge means the enemy boss can simply dodge everything at once just by moving vertically so it would be best if you used a SPD debuff or even a freeze, optimally

[tawdry halo]

Where to get the most t3 main gun enhance parts?

[worldly pewter]

farming mid-high level campaign stages

ch6 onward as i checked now in the wiki

[sinful escarp]

the higher level the better, at least w12

[zenith heron]

if you want a boost for AA though, its alr, but if not then its not really needed

[inner idol]

What are some ships that nobody talks about that could be really strong? Just wanna have some fun

[sinful escarp]

the pink haired ship that keeps appearing in construction. iirc she is a glasscanon i forgot her name

[jaunty vault]

Saratoga?

[sinful escarp]

the other one, the maid one

[left cedar]

Kent ?
Hello shikakan

[sinful escarp]

suffolk

kent is silver haired

[inner idol]

Damn I maxed out sara but never used her cuz enty

Never used Suffolk either

I'll give them a fair shot

[sinful escarp]

london too actually, i used her until w12

she was one of my very first ships that i got to 120

[warped acorn]

i wonder what ship needs autoloader as their main priority

[inner idol]

Same for a while

[honest sequoia]

Idk z52?

[sinful escarp]

isuzu? she has very good AA but not much of anything else

[short vine]

Is there a way to get rid of augments? I can't craft unique augments because my augment storage is overflowing with garbage.

[eager mulch]

only feeding them into other augments

[wind hazel]

use them as material for gold augment

[short vine]

Shit, alright

[tawdry halo]

Thx, time to farm 9-4 like there's no tmr

( I'm not lv70 yet :( )

Also what's likely the next permanent ur?

Warspite

[stark quiver]

uhh depends who you have

[vocal sandal]

How long is the opsiren mainstory

[edgy sandal]

is this the channel to ask for my next choices on PR ships? I had just completed Ägir and I don't know what to do next.

I could do anchorage, I already have der Große

[stark quiver]

anchorage good choice yea

[honest sequoia]

get anchorage yes
and make sure ur pr5 focus

[honest sequoia]

Very

[vocal sandal]

I think im on 3-6

Still a long way to go?

[stark quiver]

musashi,unicorn,aquila/volga if you have them
agir,z52,hiden i guess

alsace,shinano,enty
guam,yuudachi,laffey2

[hoary relic]

any new news about the CN anni?

[normal cedar]

one month to go i think

[timid solar]

Do we know when the next ur banner going to be

[stark quiver]

probably in mid-late may

[hoary relic]

so bis2 rerun in CN anni?

[timid solar]

Thanks

[normal cedar]

nope, after

[hoary relic]

havent watched any stream

so idk eh

[timid solar]

Is it rerun or new UR BTW

[normal cedar]

new first then rerun later

[hoary relic]

so we have netherlands UR ship banner then bis2 rerun?

[normal cedar]

what are you talking about bro 💀
there is no netherlands ur

[hoary relic]

i havent watched any streams so idk bruh

[normal cedar]

netherlands more likely having a non ur event next week or 2 weeks later, we will know on monday jp stream
so the netherlands event is 100% before cn anniversary

[hoary relic]

thx god i dont 800 cubes for 2 ur in a row

[hushed delta]

can the mysterious merchant appear on a secured zone?

[hoary relic]

yes

[hushed delta]

oh ok, this cat is rare

[honest sequoia]

akashi appears both secured and explorable and even hidden zone

[cobalt gate]

so how much difference is a max cat compared to this cat at max

[stark quiver]

at best a 9 pointer i guess
thats if you dont upgrade cruiser skill at all

[forest palm]

are you asking how much it costs to reset a cat with all talents used?

[cobalt gate]

just wonder about what percentage difference compared to like fully max cat

[forest palm]

missing some context here

[stark quiver]

but yea at best a 9 pointer
not upgrading cruiser skill at all would be hard

[sweet delta]

https://azurlane.mrlar.dev/calculator/

[cobalt gate]

like best it would be max 2 fp skills the 2 rainbow skill and then 3 reload compared to 4 unless i get destiny i think

so was wondering how much difference would that be

compared to a 10 point cat

[forest palm]

Something like this

[inland shoal]

Dunno but you can put it in the calc above and see how much the dmg difference is

[stark quiver]

8 point cat

my game just crashed

[cobalt gate]

how does it compare to the bb cat they give?

[ivory pawn]

Yours can match Taz’s cat with enough rerolling.

[sweet delta]

Dunno but you can put it in the calc above and see how much the dmg difference is

[cobalt gate]

its like 3 reload or a destiny difference

[normal cedar]

what to do about lack of purple gear, I have two fleets but only a single set of gears that I have to keep switching between fleets
mostly lacking bb guns and planes
also how did my cv manage to launch planes with all gear slots empty??

[stark quiver]

tech boxes
and ghost planes (?)

[ivory pawn]

Could’ve been a skill barrage.

[normal cedar]

oh right I forgot about tech boxes since I hit the 300 gear limit, will try that

[stark quiver]

just put trash gear on random ships

[normal cedar]

oh, nice idea
thanks!

[cobalt gate]

btw how many la9 do we even need to be honst

i can only +13 1 so not sure how good it is +10 compared to like +13 pirate and hvar

[forest palm]

6 is pretty satisfying tbh, 3 to 2 is alright

[normal cedar]

can also I trash the golden crane, if its not used in higher worlds

[forest palm]

yes you can trash cranes

[woven star]

Get Akashi and put there

[forest palm]

Akashi comes with her own

[woven star]

Is they not golden?

[forest palm]

you know the cat paw aux the games gives you while doing the quest...

[woven star]

She has own aux. Not sure about cranes

[normal cedar]

type 0 fighter model 52 golden, can I also trash these?

[forest palm]

Type 0 is trash, yes

[stark quiver]

0 is for zero worth

[normal cedar]

what about hedgehog? I think I got it from some mission

[inland shoal]

Hedgehog is the best asw in the game and it's not even close

[stark quiver]

DO NOT scrap the hedgehog

[normal cedar]

alright, thanks! that was it, I have enough space now

[cobalt gate]

@forest palm whats the team that use 6?

[hoary relic]

the best aux against sub lol, it is really stupid to scrap it

[forest palm]

only team I know of uses 5, and it involves Fritz

[hoary relic]

any news about the new UR?

[stark quiver]

no

[hoary relic]

so basically every UR will go to perm pool 1y after her rerun?

[normal cedar]

I think its less than a year, vanguard event rerun was last july

[cobalt gate]

i mean we need to get news 1st about Netherlands ships

[hoary relic]

those netherlands ships banner before bis2 or after?

[forest palm]

BZ is probably after May

[stark quiver]

i thought we said that

[hoary relic]

oh ye i forgot, im dumb lmao

[cobalt gate]

Well no new rainbow ship so not much to worry about

[jaunty vault]

chat when is strim

[cobalt gate]

Man I need cog so badly

Should be tomorrow

[jaunty vault]

skill issue

[hoary relic]

i thought we all need array not cog

[jaunty vault]

ty

[stark quiver]

youll know when you are nearing end game

[boreal wagon]

its in ~41 hours

[jaunty vault]

so monday

[eager mulch]

cooper

[hoary relic]

how do u define end-game?

[eager mulch]

marvel movie

[jaunty vault]

minecraft movie watcher

[stark quiver]

whne you start leveling a lot of ships for 120 tech

[hoary relic]

for bonus stat?

[eager mulch]

end game is when there’s nothing new to do

[hoary relic]

i dont thing any endgame player need tech

[stark quiver]

does he know

[cobalt gate]

I mean we do for 1 hit

[hoary relic]

i thought we all unlocked DR/PR ship at midgame

or i was wrong

[stark quiver]

not that tech

[forest palm]

Array are nowhere near in demand as Chips are

[stark quiver]

array 📈
cog 📉

[hoary relic]

[forest palm]

maybe if they give us Lv 130

[hoary relic]

1 shot harb with 1 fleet is harder than 1 shot meta right?

[stark quiver]

no

[hoary relic]

[stark quiver]

wdym doubt
harb is easy af

[hoary relic]

[forest palm]

it's totally possible, and consistent to one shot a Harbiter. One shot-ing a meta is largely inconsistent with a larger margin for failure

[hoary relic]

we wont have lv130 cap right?

[forest palm]

so far the devs have said no, but that can change

[hoary relic]

isnt that would make meta easier abit if there aint any changes for meta

[boreal wagon]

well technically the only said they dont like raising the cap but same difference realistically

[normal cedar]

whats a good purple AA gun? the ectl doesn't give any purple AA gun substitute so all my AA are at +0..

[stark quiver]

twin 113, the roomba

[forest palm]

Arbiter is w/e tbh, with Meta they can always just raise the bar to compete with player ship level rising

[hoary relic]

do we even need to care about AA at w5-w10?

[normal cedar]

also AA is more effective when equipped by vanguard right?

[boreal wagon]

watch them just raise the enemy level

[forest palm]

that's the easier solution, to which I don't blame them

[cobalt gate]

Nah lvl difference power gain is way too big they could just increase enemy stats

[forest palm]

it's only 2% per level, not necessarily that big, unless they shift it by like 10 levels

[boreal wagon]

i mean, if they give us 130 and shift meta by also 5 levels nothing realistically changed
barring the accessibility for newer players but meta showdown isnt know for that anyway

[cobalt gate]

Nah even 5 lvl pretty big

Aren’t we kinda under assumption they won’t raise lvl cap

Otherwise the array they give is not a lot

[stark quiver]

for our ships

[hoary relic]

[mellow crown]

you can get the 3 starters from story mode campaign right? which stage is it

[boreal wagon]

we are somewhat under that assumption based on what the devs said, but we were talking about a what if scenario where they change their mind (which knowing AL isnt that unlikely)

[forest palm]

the thing is you can't be a new player if you're doing Meta unless you threw money at the game to skip the CMD grind

[stark quiver]

check wiki for each boat

i think lvl 70 is pretty new

[forest palm]

also rewards are fairly accessible for all players even with the most minimal of results, uping the cap only affects the top end

this is mostly because with meta the bulk of the points earn is from personal fights, which can be assisted

[stark quiver]

you can bet some tryhard will do yours for you lol

[forest palm]

if you have a guild to coordinate with you can get that shit done

[hollow hollow]

I think they won't raise the cap, maybe adjust how support fleets work if anything. Like giving another set of crossfleet slots.

[ivory pawn]

She can be depending on your options, but if you don't have many UR bulins available you might want to wait and see what the next UR is like. Expected next month.

[waxen valley]

What do I do with an extra copy of shinano if she alrdy MLB

[ivory pawn]

Practically? Retire. But it's only like 30 medals unless you're slacking, so you can keep her around to show off if you don't mind the space taken up.

[deep solstice]

Fleet building help

[waxen valley]

Might keep to have 2 shinano skins for secretary hahah

[meager tiger]

is 12-4 still the best coin farming stage?
or has that changed

[hollow hollow]

You could make arguments for 13-4 if you can justify the difficulty

it is technically more income

[meager tiger]

im a returning player after 2 years so its been a hot second

came back and my NJ had no aa, no secondaries, and no aux gear and i wondered why she was doing shitall for damage

[hollow hollow]

I’ve been doing it for grinding up musashi. Meanwhile z25 suffering on the struggle bus because no flag bonus for vanguard

[hollow gust]

its impressive if you manage to get z52 not to mvp

[tame jungle]

52 or 25

[hollow hollow]

52

[hollow hollow]

I mean when she’s competing with 2 other 125 URs and she’s not even 110…

[hollow gust]

why are you farming with 2 125 URs

[meager tiger]

need help fleet building, starting thread

[waxen valley]

How do you delete meow officers

Missing 1 bulin to mlb either implacable or z52, both of them go in my mobbing fleet, which one should i do first?

[hollow gust]

largely depends on what you need

so what URs you already mlb

[bleak nymph]

Fdg is about 5k coins away from 30

[little tree]

[hollow gust]

Ulrich mlb was rip, but honestly implacable , once you get your nano and co mlb she becomes even more useful

[little tree]

~~ the uvh will be looking good on the bench ~~

[bleak nymph]

Uvh was a long time before I started looking at viability lul

[forest palm]

can still make Ulrich work

[stark quiver]

Uvh is still ur level good
Just not the best

[silk helm]

i finished pr 7 ships, but 0 la 9s. do i stay for 2 then go pr6?

[weary gust]

How many bp are you at for the la9

[silk helm]

like 35

[weary gust]

And all your PR7 ships are Dev30?

[silk helm]

yh

i cubed the ships, just doing q research now

[weary gust]

I'd stay on PR7 focus and grab gear research when it comes up, if face research for other seasons appears and there's no gear research then grab the faces for other seasons.

Get at least 1 copy of the la9.

How many cubes do you have? If you're a new player then cubing PR/DR research is not recommended.

[silk helm]

uh idk how many, but im done cubing since all dev 30

[fast frigate]

anyone know what events next?

[wheat ore]

how much should i awake my beginner fleet?

[viscid swift]

some new event with a new faction, more will be revealed in a stream on monday

[deep solstice]

#1363247458846511304 can i get some advice on which urs to mlb and what fleets I can build with them? still don't have a real boss/mob fleet.

[viscid swift]

I mean for what content

[deep solstice]

just general campaign i guess.

currently on ch 12

[viscid swift]

you've cleared W1w or are you about to clear it

anyway, after W12 you need to start specilizing your fleets

[deep solstice]

no haven't started clearing it yet. nothing done on w12. full cleared w11

[late flame]

secret stage w1w

[ripe cosmos]

please explain this

[stark quiver]

are fleet 2 and 3 filled with at least one ship on vanguard and main

[ripe cosmos]

so no

[ripe cosmos]

you are my alpha ❤️

[terse roost]

How many blueprints do large projects give in comparison to small projects

[worldly pewter]

which ones ?

[eager mulch]

[late flame]

@hard pond
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Tirpitz
if you started the game only 2 days ago though it'll be awhile before you get enough medals
and do not do requistions

[split bramble]

Is the only way to get a mikasa gun is from mikasa?

[stark quiver]

yea

pray amagi has bb next month

[light trail]

wait, totally new faction? does this usually mean new tech/gear as well?

[split bramble]

fml, i scrapped that blue gun

[stark quiver]

same, i wated like a few months for bb pool

[viscid swift]

yes, most likely the dutch and who knows

[split bramble]

didn't realise it was bis for pvp

[vast sparrow]

Help I can't enter, last night it was working

I reinstalled it multiple times now

[woeful laurel]

best way to get more of these T1 parts? i seem to be running out of these compared to T2 and T3

[jaunty vault]

farm below w13 and buy from medal/coin shop

[woeful laurel]

hmm.. okay i guess i should stop farming 13-4 lol. Thanks!

[white skiff]

How can I do these missions? I tried not using any DD ships in hard but the missions isn't completed

[jaunty vault]

[carmine heath]

"1k parts"

[jaunty vault]

what ships are you using and what stage are you doing
screenshots please

[woeful laurel]

has to be coalition, the 3-fleet thing

[eager mulch]

cooper soliciting screenshots

[white skiff]

Ok

[viscid swift]

do low cost farming farming during events

100% serious there

tap the button that says "solo challenge"

[worldly pewter]

does it get a black screen after posting the manju ?

[white skiff]

Ah I see, it must be coalition

[eager mulch]

mfw the mission that says coalition battle requires coalition battle

[white skiff]

I have the 6th anni Invitaion, which ship should I invite

[woeful laurel]

aside from this event, since i'm done, the stages that give crap rewards and no cost limit? okay i'll try that next event.

for main story though, will 12-4 give me a lot or should i go lower? i'm fleet tech farming at the same time

[eager mulch]

im not sure 12-4 can drop T1 plates

[viscid swift]

yes, specifically B1 or B3 with a 3-5 oil fleet

as for campiagn, I'd recc 12-1 and no ower

[viscid swift]

I'm as sure as I know how cute Helena is

[viscid swift]

what were the other ships on that again, you posted the same picture twice

[white skiff]

sorry, let ma send again

[late flame]

10 seconds in google

[warped acorn]

whats the max lv of the 4 star weapon/auxiliary

[sharp socket]

sirius or jda, whichever you don't have

jda being jeanne de arc

[viscid swift]

none of them are good besides Sirius and Jeanne but they can be obtained via other means so on that basis Reno or Rossiya
aletrnatively just keep holding onto it until there's only one ship from that list you don't have becaus eit never expires

[woeful laurel]

i'm not sure i've made a 3-5 oil fleet before. who would be the ships here? and as i understand, no limit breaks right?

[stark quiver]

ranger and a mahan class

aka cassin/downes all at 0 limit break lvl and lvl 70

[viscid swift]

0 B Ranger + 0LB Cassin and/or Downes

[stark quiver]

or you can do l34 cvl and 3 oil

[white skiff]

ok thank you guys

[sharp socket]

i just do ranger + ddg because i don't want to take 25 mins for 3 sorties

[viscid swift]

that's what the cross fleets are for

[late flame]

i just unicorn + ddg because lazy

[viscid swift]

now do the same for every invitation

[woeful laurel]

max LB? how much oil does that take?

[stark quiver]

like 21 i think

[viscid swift]

20 oil per battle

[late flame]

i could but that'd be spam

[woeful laurel]

guessing they'd have to have max skills?

[viscid swift]

no

but it can help with consistency in more difficult stages

[stark quiver]

skill better than no skill

[white skiff]

Should I buy eldridge from the Merit shop

[stark quiver]

do u have her retro item

[viscid swift]

if(Eldridge retro item is present in depot)
{
buy Eldridge
}
else
{
wait until you get it and then buy her
}

[stark quiver]

compsci finally got to him

[white skiff]

what is Eldridge retro item

[late flame]

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

[white skiff]

ok thanks

[warped acorn]

whats the max lv of a 4 star weapon/auxiliary

[fiery swan]

These things any good?

[worldly pewter]

can u give an example

[warped acorn]

anti air?

[vast sparrow]

Yes

[worldly pewter]

if u mean purple then it is +11 and u should stop at +10 unless u know what u are doing

[warped acorn]

or should i just remain them lv 6 and try getting 5 star 🤔

[fiery swan]

^

[woeful laurel]

maybe i'll try this until i get enough motivation to do ranger + cassin lol

are there "breakpoints" for skills or it's really just "1 or 10"?

[worldly pewter]

this happened to me after i first installed the game after resetting the emulator disk because of repetitive bsod
most likely i wiped the data from the app setting because i didn't start dl the packs and assets

[vast sparrow]

Oh btw this is mobile and not an emulator

I tried Rhadnar method, still didn't work

[viscid swift]

if you're not gonna go full low cost then you may as well just not bother really and do the usual D3 farming

there are also no break points for skills, it's literally just the more the better

[viscid swift]

for Muashi only and no

[worldly pewter]

5 star or yellow doesn't always mean that it is good

[woeful laurel]

i see i see. if that's the case, fine i'll try it out

[viscid swift]

and just so you know, the other fleet is purely cross fleet support

[worldly pewter]

try to change the mobile device language to anything else between cn jp and kr and see again tbh i m out of ideas to help in this case especially when u said that it was working fine yesterday

[warped acorn]

interesting... im using them since im limited in stuff

[viscid swift]

might wanna start by giving an equipment guide a read
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/equipment

[worldly pewter]

the aux for this ship should be a tool kit and an eva blue aux as poverty such as naval camouflage or hydraulic steer

[warped acorn]

sadly i dont have them...

[woeful laurel]

what's the ideal cross fleet? currently using this

[viscid swift]

I'd drop NJ for Alsace

[worldly pewter]

xfleet where ?

[woeful laurel]

thank you!

[viscid swift]

low cost event farming

[worldly pewter]

how does it work ?

[viscid swift]

hmm?

[worldly pewter]

i thought it forces all the deployed fleets to fight

[viscid swift]

no

you can change the auto search setting so it just uses one fleet for everything

[worldly pewter]

and i went ahead to do 3 low cost fleets

[viscid swift]

"all enemies"

[worldly pewter]

this doesn't look like the event screen

[warped acorn]

why do submarines seems to be rarely used 🤔

[viscid swift]

well not this event

but your more traditional style events

[viscid swift]

because they're restricted from several places(METAs, PvP)
and they're simply put not needed for most content

[woeful laurel]

imo, they're usually just added oil cost when the ships don't really need them

[warped acorn]

interesting...

[dreamy blade]

theyre mostly just used for late campaign and opsi

[zenith heron]

1st one is fair considering how durable them enemies are in the later worlds

While 2nd is where you don't have enough optimized fleets to tackle OPSI easily until later ones where you don't use them at all

[forest palm]

Subs are free damage, which you can choose to ignore if you so choose

[warped acorn]

should i even use a aircraft carrier in my team 🤔

[forest palm]

yes

in campaign you want CVs in your fleet

[warped acorn]

hmm i wonder what are the good ones easy to get

[stark quiver]

enty

[midnight bluff]

Where can i farm more meta crystals?

[meager tiger]

is aurora's buff against enemy DDs and CLs enough to warrant using her over another solid UR like, say, hindenburg or plymouth?

[rain vine]

the shop currency?

[turbid gyro]

Help

[storm heron]

something-kaze

[rain vine]

hamakaze

[stark quiver]

yes

[sweet delta]

Making 5 other ships do 30% more damage is a good idea

[meager tiger]

just trying to cobble together some opsi fleets. im assuming for DD and CL arbiters, id wanna run triple BB backliners with sap or HE guns to maximize damage aginst light since carriers are better for medium and heavy, generally?

[stark quiver]

i think
soyuz,nakh,fritz
or
kear,yk2,enty/fritz might be better with equal investment

[midnight bluff]

Ya

[fickle hollow]

Why is there a live stream scheduled on JP azurlane acc? Are we getting a new UR?

[meager tiger]

makes sense actually, since dive bombers can still do decent damage to light armor

its just torp bombers that have shitty light armor multipliers

unless im wrong

[midnight bluff]

Dammn we get barely anny

[fickle hollow]

Will i be able to mlb Napoli (dev 15) and Nakhimov (dev 20) by the time the new PR season drops?

[wind hazel]

maybe

[stark quiver]

Dbs like ad1 are exceptionally better than hell divers and tenrais

[warped acorn]

what should i use to beat 4-4 (prevent those bomb ship and planes)

[meager tiger]

and for an anti light armor boss fleet, im assuming spamming hvar hellcats on CVs along with ad1s is going to be best

[forest palm]

getting 716 DR BPs is a rather tall order for 3(?) months

[polar lion]

U can also do Alsace, Bizwei, Vanny backline

[stark quiver]

Honesty yea

[meager tiger]

i just wish there was a universal bis for every ship

[forest palm]

when boiled down there kind of is

[meager tiger]

its just annoying having to figure out all these new ships and what their gearing and synergies are depending on which content youre facing

been away from the game for almost 2 years and im very quickly being humbled again

like, georgia is bad now

[forest palm]

GA was never good

[stark quiver]

At least she has both obtain and 120 tech that’s good

[forest palm]

literally in no time frame was GA a meta option because she always had to contend with some other BB, like Fred, or Monarch, even back then the 3rd slot of a BB fleet was dedicated to Dork who with her RDPS was better than running GA

[turbid gyro]

who dis

[meager tiger]

she was at least decent back then

especially for people who didnt have all the DRs unlocked and maxed

now shes not even decent, just flat out bad

[stark quiver]

Honestly
There’s only so much gear that’s actually top in the meta
Once you remember them, just gotta know the ships and their usual comps

[late flame]

i just lurk here and copy loadouts ggez

[forest palm]

as I said, if you boil it down there is such a thing as universal, it's just reaching that point takes time

[wind hazel]

[forest palm]

[chrome jackal]

So pretty much i sould LB implacable and alasce? (Totaly didnt forget to look here)

[wind hazel]

show your entire UR. not just non-mlb UR

[stark quiver]

Implacable frfr

[wind hazel]

how many UR bulin again

but yes implacable is first in line

[chrome jackal]

1 on me and 2 buyable and another one comming from cruise pass

[stark quiver]

Watch cna be implacable^2

[wind hazel]

honestly tough call lol

probably best to wait

[chrome jackal]

sad part is im missing musashi and zwei

[wind hazel]

zwei rerun soonTM

[chrome jackal]

ik xD

im probs gone skip an event to gurante her

[stark quiver]

I don’t think you should skip cna

[chrome jackal]

also is TC3 worth running with 1 fleet for exp or is 12-4 still better?

[wind hazel]

once again, grief advice

[chrome jackal]

its probs gone be one thats closer to zwei's rerun

[wind hazel]

ban this guy

[chrome jackal]

out of curiousity whys that grief advice?

[wind hazel]

he never take account on what you have, your BBs are fine, meanwhile Implacable would complete your CV setup

[late flame]

implac would have more.. impact since she is a cornerstone of your cv boss fleet

[chrome jackal]

ah i see

[wind hazel]

not the first time this guy gave questionable advice around here

previously he told someone to raise perseus 2nd fleet

[normal cedar]

me

[late flame]

tbh percy is effectively powercrept by unicorn

[turbid gyro]

who dis

[sinful escarp]

sendai

[stark quiver]

Not a sigma gpher

[viscid swift]

you do know that you can just reverse search the image on google images right?

[stark quiver]

I’m genuinely curious as to what you’re doing

[viscid swift]

also @cobalt gate care to explain

[whole crypt]

sup mogs

[versed forum]

what kind of debuff is this? Is there any way to remove this

[whole crypt]

don't see any debuff icons might be a bug, try restarting game

oh CN actually launching new server? lol

[warped acorn]

u can marry a shipgirl at once? 🤔

[sinful escarp]

if her affection is at 100 yes

[whole crypt]

you can oath as many ships as you want but additional rings will cost gems, outside of your first free ring and handouts which is usually just 1/year on anniv

[warped acorn]

ah dang

[fringe root]

Hi! new player, which server should i play on? (havent finished downloading the resources but it made me pick which server im playing on when i joined the discord server)

[whole crypt]

all severs are basically the same, older servers have more sweaty vets that may make PvP harder but gameplay and content is the same

PvP itself is also not really that relevant for a new player besides easy XP if you don't mind losing

[wind hazel]

maybe start on lexington or sandy, they both have CV medal this month, grab Enterprise

[fringe root]

thank you

[whole crypt]

going to be a bit rough to scrape 80 medals starting from zero today

[wind hazel]

should be doable, there are free tickets too

[whole crypt]

yeh but newer players are kind of locked out of a bunch of those tickets

[warped acorn]

how to get augment module core

[ivory pawn]

Completely weekly Augment daily challenge, or events.

[dreamy blade]

also event milestone rewards and cruise pass, normal arbiter

[olive geyser]

what's a good HE BB main gun?

[eternal moth]

406mk6/mk7

[sinful escarp]

and yes the mk6 is purple

[fringe root]

who should i choose as my starter? (KMS Z23, USS Laffey, or HMS Javelin)

[zenith pebble]

Laffey

[fringe root]

ty

[late flame]

actually you can choose anyone

[zenith pebble]

Eventually you’ll get all three but laffey would be a good start

[fringe root]

oh alr ty

[zenith pebble]

Isn’t jav kind of weak?

[late flame]

eventually you'll get everyone soon enough so it doesnt matter,
but if one was to argue actually z23 for a headstart to FdG

[zenith pebble]

Ooo that’s good

And to roon

[late flame]

still, it doesnt matter really which starter

[zenith pebble]

You right

[normal cedar]

till what world can I use her as tank? i could get her but would rather save those retro prints for anchorage if she falls off as a tank too soon

[zenith pebble]

Last time i used saint louis was way back when, anchorage prints would be better

[wind hazel]

ideally you dont use her as a tank. she's ok off tank but main tank not so much

[normal cedar]

ahh i see, i need a good main tank so i will keep those retros for anchorage then
i think ill get her before cn anniv so i can use her in world 12 then, at 650 tech rn

thanks a lot

[fringe root]

where should i use my shipbuilding support tickets and wisdom cubes?

[wind hazel]

the Build tab

[late flame]

tickets can only be used on current event though

[wind hazel]

dont use the cubes, just use the tickets

dont overspend the tickets either, just use 3 daily until event is over, use remaining on last day, if you can

[fringe root]

so basically only summon on events?
is the current even good or should i save the tickets? only got 3 rn

[late flame]

tickets expire at end of event

[wind hazel]

they are meant to be used during the event

[fringe root]

ah.

alr ty

[late flame]

ignore requisition, its a newbie trap

[fringe root]

[cobalt gate]

Feel like there is never a reason to use requisition

[normal cedar]

are medal shop blueprints worth buying monthly (special or general)? since pr7 doesnt have catchup..

[storm heron]

fairly active player can gain more than 1k medal per month

[normal cedar]

zamn, I only got around 200 this month till now
do higher worlds drop more sr ships?

[stark quiver]

no lol

[storm heron]

hmm

[cobalt gate]

You don’t need gold bulins?

[normal cedar]

I already bought them

[cobalt gate]

How is your white plate stack looking? Or bought that as well

[normal cedar]

I am running low on white plates than blue or purple

[cobalt gate]

It’s kinda because they don’t drop after chap 12 or 13. Well I suggest getting that as well if you doing q research

Wait you still at world 9 hmm probably not too much to worry about

[normal cedar]

sure, its just 30 plates though, how do you get more for research?
since I farm 9-1 I don't get much white plates from drops...

[cobalt gate]

300 since 10 plate per purchase

[normal cedar]

ahh ok I saw available=30 so miscalculated

[cobalt gate]

Well event generally becomes where white plate drop as you farm for pt

Also just disassembling unneed stuff from tech box and such

Probably not something to be super worried but I buy the white plate since it is cheap for me and I’m doing a ton of q for la9

[fringe root]

btw, where do i use the cubes if not use it for summoning?

[warped acorn]

i just unlocked research lab i wonder what pr ship should i go for

[storm heron]

cubes can also be used for 3-cube research to gain some cog chips (not recommended unless you know you can afford cubes)

[fringe root]

ty

[cobalt gate]

The only other thing is for h research for cog but I would say save like 1k cubes before going down that route

And I think P.R. ship unlock require small amount of cube as well

[stark quiver]

is this from experience ?

[storm heron]

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

[cobalt gate]

There are rainbow and gold short research that cost cube and I would say worth it

[storm heron]

yeah, is it not?

maybe "fairly" is a bit too light

[cobalt gate]

I would say at least 500+

Less if you have stuff to mlb

[storm heron]

I remember we had discussion and ender was saying that most players won't get that many

[stark quiver]

1k for fairly active is bs

[storm heron]

ah yeah I was wrong, 1k is like on the very high end

#gameplay-help message

[normal cedar]

what does this mean? like 9-1 is better for medals than 11-1 or 12-4?

[storm heron]

idk if people gather data to make such conclusion

[cobalt gate]

i guess they mean 9-1 is more efficient since the oil lock total is lower which means more runs?

[ivory pawn]

Low oil = running 1:1 fleets in lower worlds like, idk, 1-2.

[normal cedar]

ohh I see

[cobalt gate]

But you rather just farm higher stage for gold

[normal cedar]

but its faster to get 10 blues than 1 gold right..?

[meager tiger]

is the best aa gun still staag bofors/sexybofors for main/vanguard respectively

or are the ur aa guns better

[cobalt gate]

Medal shop is mostly supplement. Like I would say most important is gold bulins and if you want a missing ssr ship that can be exchanged

The ur aa gun cat ears are better than stag

[storm heron]

I got like over 1000 monthly

[meager tiger]

cat ears?

[ivory pawn]

UR better. Sexy bofors still highest alpha by a few points iirc, but the higher range on the Eagle Union UR and the HIT makes it nicer to go after.

[ivory pawn]

EU UR.

[meager tiger]

ah

i have these so i was just wondering

[sullen birch]

We got the plane lads

[ivory pawn]

Yeah no need to touch the gold AAs.

[cobalt gate]

I think I heard that the gold+13 are better than the rainbow +10 if you have any. The strat still is to +13 the ur ones though

[meager tiger]

bold of u to assume i have coins

[boreal wagon]

i dont think you should +13 most if not any gold AA guns

[cobalt gate]

Doesn’t sandiego and Chester I think still want six bofers?

I mean. I did before rainbow as came out and no real other place to use gold as plate

But not something recommended now

[meager tiger]

roomba aa is safe to scrap right? cuz i have 20 copies of staag and hazemeyer i can upgrade

[cobalt gate]

Which is also why I really want gear resets or something

Man I cannot rember names of aa guns

[meager tiger]

cuz for some reason a bunch of my CVs have the twin 113 roomba aa equipped and iirc its ass

[ivory pawn]

For you maybe, but it is a good AA gun. Basically a more easily accessible roomba.

[storm heron]

probably not, roomba is one of the better AA gun for vanguards. Just put them in the ship u dont use if you need space

[cobalt gate]

I mean it’s probably to increase aa circle of vanguard

[ivory pawn]

Don't know why it's on your CVs though.

[meager tiger]

me neither

[cobalt gate]

Since cv don’t need the extra hit that much

[meager tiger]

2023 duck had weird gearing ideas

[strong tartan]

what cv wouldn't want extra hit

[cobalt gate]

It’s a trade off

[strong tartan]

what are you trading off

[storm heron]

there's like probably only one place where thaat trade off matters

[strong tartan]

regular cvs can't equip aa guns anyways unless if you have like 50 copies of fritz

[cobalt gate]

Unicorn and other cvl mostly

I mean that’s why they said their cv had aa guns

[frank pulsar]

frog aa is all cvl bis aa gun, idk what yr trading off

[wind hazel]

what place is that

my dungeon?

[uneven cave]

Frog aa
Is that what we’re calling the rainbow aa

[strong tartan]

your dungeon is full

[storm heron]

probably ch15 with roomba > staag as people stated

[wind hazel]

is it though

[storm heron]

well probably

[wind hazel]

maybe... cheeky ran 6 76

wait no, the french

57? idk the number anymore

[atomic abyss]

People tend to underestimate how good the STAAG is at AA

It's no roomba, but it's far from bad

[strong tartan]

57 is baguette 76 is burger

[wind hazel]

i only speak American

[strong tartan]

57 is louisiana 76 is the rest of the country

[honest sequoia]

[meager tiger]

holy fuck dude my agir had no main gun equipped

[storm heron]

:cleveok:

[normal cedar]

are these stats good? I feel that the accuracy might be low?

[sullen birch]

@wind hazel I got the plane

[wind hazel]

cool

[sullen birch]

Who should have it@wind hazel ?

[wind hazel]

your CV that you use for bossing in meta/opsi

[storm heron]

it's fine, aux gun and aa gun could be better

[sullen birch]

I'm still working on the one that has the katana

[sullen birch]

Ok

[wind hazel]

and it's not plug and play either. use it only if timing is right

[sullen birch]

Also

[sullen birch]

Soo
When they are not moving right?

[storm heron]

this ur guy mori?

[wind hazel]

😭 sir this is not trophy room

[sullen birch]

@wind hazel is the gun any good ?

[normal cedar]

aux gun is only for intercepting suicide boats right?

[wind hazel]

not better than existing

[sullen birch]

Ok

Time to continue the grind oh yeah
What is this ?

TRP?

[honest sequoia]

ur fleet lacks torpedo vanguard

[sullen birch]

Is anchor good for Torp?

[honest sequoia]

replace helena with a vanguard that uses torp

[sullen birch]

Ok

[honest sequoia]

and use anchor instead of roon

[sullen birch]

I need to get her first

[honest sequoia]

Well who do u have?

[honest sequoia]

or just replace helena with a DD to fill the TRP

[woven star]

check maybe you have better gear... golden torps, etc.

[sullen birch]

Ok

[sullen birch]

I have
And they are equipped well

[woven star]

Imho I'll change Heinrich on better CA, or make him as a tank and swap Agir on some ship with better trp stats like dd
Yeah, as Agir CA, just swap Hein

[honest sequoia]

Him

[meager tiger]

i need to inventory all my gear because for some reason i found a plus 13 staag bofors on my alabama

[normal cedar]

what do you do with spare common ships if all your 2 fleets ships are max enhanced? retire?

[tawdry halo]

use them on other ships

[warped acorn]

what ship should i try getting for next the fleet looks weak

[tawdry halo]

no tanker?

[warped acorn]

my luck too bad to get them

[tawdry halo]

shouldnt you already have portland

[warped acorn]

uh huh portland is a tanker 🤔

[tawdry halo]

yea?

Portland is a pretty decent tanker for newbies

[normal cedar]

maybe a good battleship, try to see if medal shop has bb perhaps

[tawdry halo]

retrofitting her would enhance her tankiness a bit more

[warped acorn]

hmm who should i replace with

[tawdry halo]

yea I think Nevada could be replaced by another BB

[tawdry halo]

make a thread and show your port

This is retro Portland, as you can see her HP pool is decent enough to eat a bunch of attacks

[warped acorn]

damn...

sounds like all CL

[tawdry halo]

discussion for hah guy

[orchid reef]

how do i get 2 more T3 cruiser retrofit blueprints if i already did hard mode (like for today)

[tawdry halo]

check guild shop

[orchid reef]

well nothings there

[tawdry halo]

well, you gotta wait then, medal shop's t3 retro is pretty expensive

[orchid reef]

frickkkkk, i could complete ibuki todayyyyy

[tawdry halo]

[whole crypt]

do you have 343 of her prints

[orchid reef]

no why would i have now? i have saint louis already

[orchid reef]

just making another one because of the series 1 quests again

[whole crypt]

because if you don't have the prints for her it doesn't really matter if you finish her now or in 2 weeks

missions shouldn't need you to finish another ship, if it did vets who finish ships before missions get added will never finish them

[orchid reef]

what

[whole crypt]

research missions are a catch up mechanic, they get added later than the actual series, older players have all their ships finished before missions come

[dreamy blade]

not even a sextuple?

[boreal wagon]

i am by no means an expert so i dunno

[whole crypt]

if I had to pick I'd 13 a roomba

mainly just because there's not a lot of reason to craft a sextuple nowadays

depends on what you're engaging and what you have on hand I guess

[normal cedar]

do bismarck and zwei share skins?

[whole crypt]

yes

[normal cedar]

what about oath skin? does oathing zwei work or only bismarck

[meager tiger]

real gigachads use staag on all ships

[whole crypt]

oath skin can only be used on the oathed copy

[boreal wagon]

(aka if u oath zwei she can)

[normal cedar]

I see, thanks!

[whole crypt]

sorry to burst your bubble but the real gigachads now all use 76

[meager tiger]

mid, quad 28 chicago piano is where its at

[whole crypt]

welcome to gph

[tardy agate]

yo which ultra rare should i exchange for

[trim path]

which two out of yk2, kear, and enty usually pairs with a stopper for light boss?

[wind hazel]

kear yk2 avp/impla

[wind hazel]

what UR do you have

[tardy agate]

nj

[wind hazel]

shinano

[tardy agate]

ok

ooh a hottie

[deep cypress]

Is the Proto 240mm Gun from Frostfall any good?

[forest palm]

one of the better AP CA guns you can get that isn't UR

[zenith heron]

Basically a Sidegrade to most CA Guns, its just worse against Light, better against Heavy than some CA Guns but still not 100%, and decent as usual in medium like any other AP CA Gun

Its competitors at least are the Blucher Gun (Event only as of now), Baltimore Gun (Gear Lab), and The Roon Gun (PR1 AP CA Gun) if I am not wrong

[forest palm]

really just gibberish using Ship names, anyway the Improved 203 SKC is better than Mk 15 SHS and the Triple 203 SK C/34

the 240 is comparable to the Improved 203 SKC

[deep cypress]

Well. I'll be farming it, then. Thx.

[carmine heath]

is harby a one off kill or does it reset every week or something (aside from the monthly resets)

[forest palm]

the two Arbiter fights only give rewards once per month, after Harbiter is defeated once you can refight it if you so choose

[carmine heath]

whats the point of refighting

[forest palm]

nothing

[normal cedar]

any cv worth retrofitting apart from saratoga, unicorn, independence that's on the same level as these or better?

[undone plover]

not on the same level
but chen hai and hwah jah are good for ch15 support fleet
but that is very niche

[forest palm]

Hwah Jah I think for world 15 support fleet

[normal cedar]

I see, thanks

[forest palm]

Ark Royal exists, but so does Imp and August

[undone plover]

if your name is correct tho I would focus on shipyard which also needs retro blueprints
so I wouldnt retrofit them yet

[terse roost]

Which other carrier can I pair with shinano and hakuryuu?

[normal cedar]

the only cv I can think of there is kearsarge though?
is there any good pr cv there?

[forest palm]

Amagi(CV), there isn't really any other worth pairing her with

[terse roost]

When rerun

[forest palm]

far from now

[undone plover]

hakuryuu is great
and kearsarge is bbv not really cv but i get what u mean

[terse roost]

How far like a year or months?

[forest palm]

anyway this is why you use Kazagumo in the vanguard

[undone plover]

u could also farm other hard maps for non-CV retroprints which can help u develop (shipyard) and retro other stuff besides carriers

[normal cedar]

Yea, I'm doing mostly cruisers now since anchorage and agir will need it
parseval is good? is she an implac replacement?

[forest palm]

you have the order reversed

Implacable ~ Nakhimov > August > Ark Royal

[normal cedar]

I mean I know she isn't implac level, but her skills seem to be doing slow/freeze too so..
I didnt get implac during rerun and nakhimov will take time since no coin or catchup
Implac was considered to be goated status support so maybe august would be useful for me? (in future)

[forest palm]

yes, if you lack Imp and/or Nakhimov then August is the technical budget option

provided August is F5

[normal cedar]

does fdg also need to be f5 to be usable? Im doing her catchup so I can dev 30 her a bit faster..

[honest stirrup]

iirc FdG's F5 lets her be in any position, but shouldn't be too different from a dev30 at flagship position

[forest palm]

F5 just makes her not Flag dependent it is an improvement, but not a must for her viability

[normal cedar]

oh, that's nice then, hopefully I can unlock her before cn anniv
otherwise it'll be a waste if cn anniv ur is fdg replacement or something...

[forest palm]

it's not hard for a UR to replace FdG given her age, the difference is any UR you attain will take a bit to be viable because they need to be MLB

[normal cedar]

I have 6 ur bulins now so...
I dont think cn anniv ur will have mlb problem

[honest stirrup]

It also depends on how many UR BB you already have
3 or 4 UR BB are always nice to have for some contents such as Opsi and coalition cough

[forest palm]

if you lack Raph or Musashi, FdG is still the best available Mob BB

[normal cedar]

are electronics the rarest opsi gold components? I have a disproportionately low amount of them

compared to metals and elastomers atleast

[worldly pewter]

there is a little bit of fluctuation between them i think but overall very close

@cobalt rapids are the electronics lower than the other components ?

[sinful escarp]

its just that the planes need lot of electronics hence we have that the least

[normal cedar]

hmm I see I guess it will normalize over time

[warped acorn]

how do u get higher fleet power

[honest sequoia]

get better gears and atleast +10

[warped acorn]

interesting..

[worldly pewter]

fleet power isn't a good metric to know if the team is good or not too

[mellow crown]

are medals of honor used for anything side from that isolated gacha banner?

[normal cedar]

medal shop, dont use them on the banner

[warped acorn]

i mean.... counters exist... so yeah

[worldly pewter]

it is about using good ships with good gear for a certain content

if u use bad ships with bad gear in a hard content u will get the same fleet power but with a disastrous outcome

[warped acorn]

same fleet power.. hmm

[worldly pewter]

yes fleet power doesn't reflect 99% of the true power

it is basically a useless metric

[whole crypt]

I don't think we'll get coalition again, little academy and hospital basically tells you they realized the format was a problem

[honest stirrup]

what's the big deal with coalition though

[warped acorn]

this surely be most cooked research?

[honest sequoia]

no dont do this

[soft raft]

Hell fucking no with that cube count

People only really do the blue rarity version of everything else sucks or they have like at least 800-1,000 cubes

[warped acorn]

dang that cube amount is crazy

[normal cedar]

I think rainbow is the best research though?

If you can afford it ofc

[tawdry halo]

What did Mori tell you...

I cant

[forest palm]

Electronic Components are the highest in demand material, so they will fluctuate the most due to high usage in recipes.

[tawdry halo]

Mori literally told you real simple things back in the thread

Dont spend cubes on these researches

[warped acorn]

yea.... time to do last 4-4 for that lv 6 plane

[worldly pewter]

i want to know if it is the rarest component or are they all the same

[warped acorn]

that 2000lb bomb going be very interesting

[tawdry halo]

Cube-researches are probably the worst type

[worldly pewter]

renhex has a chart for them i think but he is still sleeping

[tawdry halo]

Lv6 what plane?

[forest palm]

they're the same effectively, you're just led by high demand into a placebo effect that it is scarcer than most other materials

[warped acorn]

forgot that name but it seems to have a 2000lb bomb

[tawdry halo]

What

Just ss the plane

[normal cedar]

Curtiss SB2C Helldiver?

[warped acorn]

this

12sec per airstrike with that armament should be crazy 🤔

[worldly pewter]

the reason why u can still use this plane in endgame content and still be very fine

not worth +11

[warped acorn]

didnt plan to since i cant even +10 anyways

[still pond]

which one do i pick from the training exam one hood,enterprise,san diego or illustious ? 😄 which is the best ^^

[tawdry halo]

Ok you are good to go

[warped acorn]

time to launch final blow and grab that plane away

[normal cedar]

who's your flagship bb now?

[still pond]

nelson retrofit ^^

[normal cedar]

hmm no need for hood then ig, illustrious is not that great
it's between sandy or enty

[tawdry halo]

Spend the 400 gems on dockspace

[normal cedar]

you have CL in your medal shop now right?

[tawdry halo]

I have both and even retro Nelson so I get Hood for future second fleet investment

[humble tapir]

is there any way to speed up getting main fleet xp? im grinding for kearsarge and this is taking forever since i havent unlocked pr6 from the beginner missions

[still pond]

yeah i have so i can buy sun diego ^^

[normal cedar]

ok then buy sandy there and go for enty as choice
both are great ships so invest in them

[still pond]

okay ^^

[hollow gust]

Grind 12-1 with 3 eagles is the best way

You shouldn't be spending those speed boost on ship though

[humble tapir]

what about 10-1 or 11-1?

[hollow gust]

So you are that new

Wait not that one

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/research @humble tapir read through the whole thing , thoroughly

[humble tapir]

alr thx thx

[normal cedar]

how do you unlock keil,brest and other ports in opsi? I secured their zones but they are still red and have no shop or anything inside

[hollow gust]

they are enemy ports , you dont get anything from them

[solar canopy]

which one is better for Mobbing?

[normal cedar]

so there are only 2 opsi shops: liverpool and NY right?

[forest palm]

UR 610 is only ever used if you manual, Improved Quad/Regular Quad Mags are the better option for auto play in general both in mob and boss

[solar canopy]

hoo okay thank you

[honest sequoia]

gilbratar & st peterburg

[zenith heron]

If you are within the Story mode of OPSI, yes

But there are at least 2 more once you clear some areas with blue ports on it

[normal cedar]

clearing story chap 5 is so hard, I keep losing to lvl 112 enemies even though my fleet is 115-120

[zenith heron]

Blue Ports are Azur Lane areas

Crimson Axis ones are red and have no port shops on it

[zenith heron]

You got a healer on your mob fleet?

[normal cedar]

retro unicorn 115

percy also there for crossfleet

[honest sequoia]

could be not enough tunings

[forest palm]

Percy's cross fleet is absolutely useless

[normal cedar]

im corrosion lv 6, can we go higher?

[honest sequoia]

I dont think you can go to 7 if ur still on story mode

[forest palm]

C7 is Strongholds and Arbiter, so no at least not yet

[normal cedar]

it's pretty much that my vanguard gets wiped always

[honest sequoia]

gearing issues maybe

[zenith heron]

Either Tunings low, gear issues, fleet issues, etc...

[forest palm]

skill issue

[normal cedar]

wait, ill make a thread and post everything there

Bagura Opsi Chapter 5 fleet

[warped acorn]

what are those ships name?

[forest palm]

those are outfit names, not ship names

[warped acorn]

yea but the ship that use those skin

[normal cedar]

rightmost one is kinu

[tawdry halo]

Juno festival outfit best outfit (absolutely biased opinion as a Juno fan)
