[slow fox]

who is the local opsi expert what how do we have one

[cobalt rapids]

suchihuman

[slow fox]

He's not just endgame gatekeeper

[lime thicket]

for kazan since i just want to proc her skill and heal a lot, do i just put reloader + fast proccing main gun on her?

[foggy phoenix]

Can someone tell me where I can find the stats for Geryon from Rumney?

[wind hazel]

no, just build her like every other typical bb. her heal isn't even tied to her main gun

[gaunt cedar]

hello as a new player is it a good idea to use my wisdom cubes to get good ships initially since i can farm them later from commissions or should i save them for something

[wind hazel]

just do a single Light daily until UR event

[wary hawk]

As a new player, gacha ships hold significantly less value as the powerful starter ships are all cheap lower rarity ships. You shouldn't worry about trying to pull starter ships to power up your fleet, just focus on the right units

[normal cedar]

do I continue with lv 65 disruption or go for lv 75 instead

[cobalt rapids]

rumney has a geryon

continue 65

[wind hazel]

maybe she stole from bismarck

the what

[hybrid pelican]

Oops, wrong dc

[wind hazel]

no no, this is Arknight discord

[normal cedar]

is this good, never done box research before

ok, thanks

[plain saffron]

Do i pull current banner

[wind hazel]

Yes
-# idk

[sharp socket]

do you have over 400 cubes and like the characters, if yes then sure

[wary hawk]

I dont think arknights has cubes

[sharp socket]

i don't know what that is but its AL here

[honest sequoia]

[sharp socket]

is gph meme time and i didn't catch it

[plain saffron]

See what i replied to

[lament spade]

bluestack or ldplayer 9?

[tawdry halo]

So I researched Saint Louis, should I switch my research focus entirely on her for now (I've been putting full focus on Anchorage while I didnt even start researching her yet (I dont have enough E. Union points)

[wind hazel]

research focus is different from catchup

regardless you shouldn't change to PR1/2/3

just coin st louis later on if you wanna develop her further

[tawdry halo]

oh well

I guess I will do that once my first formation is fully done

would she be able to replace Anchorage-chan in tanking though

[wind hazel]

no, she's barely a tank

she's more of an offtank dps

[cobalt rapids]

mumu

[marsh sparrow]

do I just skip FdG for now until BisZwei rerun?
I have no IB backliner other than non limit break UvH

[cobalt rapids]

u can get scharn and gnei from wa

[atomic abyss]

There's also the option of Tirpitz from BB medal shop

[normal cedar]

what is bayard supposed to be? a tank?

[wind hazel]

mob tank with good dps

[fickle fern]

Does removing a ship change fleet tech or collection%?

[wind hazel]

no

[fickle fern]

Hell yeah, thank you

Can finally have space lol

[wind hazel]

just be aware that in the future, if the ship has retro, you will have to reobtain the ship

[normal cedar]

pr 7 catchup hits june july right

[fickle fern]

Ok

[atomic abyss]

July based on past years
But as I've said before
I think it's too early for it to matter for you

[honest sequoia]

does daisen gun powercrept izumo gun for musashi

[atomic abyss]

Slightly yes
The recommendation is, if you already have a +13 izumo gun, you can probably skip out on +13 daisen

If you haven't, then use the daisen, +13 it and be on your way

[frozen solstice]

Can such equipment be? Let's take into account that I have nothing better

[grizzled sundial]

I don't get the question ? 🤔

[atomic abyss]

Yes it's fine by poverty standards
I would use the SB2C helldiver tho for slot 2
It's the 2nd best dive-bomber in the game

[wary hawk]

I mean if you have nothing better...

[atomic abyss]

That's what he said so I assume that's the case

[wind hazel]

no tenzan?

[frozen solstice]

However, I have one spare SB2C upgraded to 9

[frozen solstice]

Tenzan no

[wind hazel]

[frozen solstice]

Why him?

[wind hazel]

it's good on implacable

strong damage, converging torpedo. implacable will hit them 100%

[atomic abyss]

It's better than the avenger
And particularly good (poverty wise) for implacable

[normal cedar]

isnt tenzan kai superior to tenzan in all ways
or do they play different roles

[atomic abyss]

Ofc
But that assumes you have the gear lab mats

[frozen solstice]

However, for other aircraft carriers it is average, right?

[atomic abyss]

Still better than the avenger

And, no there are cases it is outright better

[wind hazel]

actually which one is better?

[frozen solstice]

I see, then I'm going to upgrade Tenzan. Why did I ignore it? Because of the damage stat

[dreamy blade]

knowing which planes are good is not very intuitive

[whole crypt]

for mobbing DB because faster rld and aoe

[wind hazel]

feels wrong using impla for mobbing

[forest palm]

[atomic abyss]

I mean in general it's better on campaign

[forest palm]

would be hard pressed to legitimately use Implacable in campaign

[normal cedar]

I wonder if the game has any stages which are neither mob nor boss?
Like semi boss esque mobs or a boss who is a mob (instead of 1 boss you have to defeat the entire fleet or something)

[forest palm]

Ops

[dreamy blade]

w15 bosses are basically a combination of waves of mobs + boss enemies

[whole crypt]

most of the campaign and events are waves of mobs then boss spawn

the mob fleet just refers to the fleet that usually engages nodes that have no bosses

[normal cedar]

I see, thanks
when was w14 and 15 released?

[marsh sparrow]

w14 on late 2021,w15 also around late 2023

[normal cedar]

hmm late as in december ur? or jp anniv

[marsh sparrow]

around jp anniv

[normal cedar]

also, a last question: cn anniv always has new oath skins?

[whole crypt]

yes

[normal cedar]

thanks a lot

[weak moat]

If I can’t clear the event shop what should I prioritise

[normal cedar]

Red is high priority, green is below red

is hiryuu's first skill good for campaign or it's just old pvp gimmick

[tame jungle]

pvp thing honestly

i would not rely on it to save my ass in campaign that's for sure

[forest palm]

old PVP gimmick no one uses these days

[rapid grail]

unrealistic to assuume it'll proc in campaign. really you kind of need to redo your fleetbuilding if you're procing it in the first place
uh yea it was and still is a pvp thing mostly... for now she's out of the meta. she'll return if some new ships can easily burst down some of the tankiest frontliners ever in this game

[wary hawk]

Hiryuu II

[rapid grail]

oh yea, kearsarge (via her bbv airstrikes) and laffey ii counter CVs in general so gg CVs

[atomic abyss]

Up to 2020, maybe 2021, effective PvP gimmick

[normal cedar]

I see, rip hiruu..
anyways, do blue books always mean healing skills? I've already maxed unicorn and percy and still have a lot of blue books left...

[atomic abyss]

No use in campaign because she shouldn't be dying

No
Blue books means defensive skills usually
So shields, def buffs and what not

Uni healing skill is yellow

I think Perseus too

That said, excess blue books is a common thing

[normal cedar]

I see, I just wanna find a decent blue skills ship to use my daily 10 class but I cant find any good ones
nvm found saint louis, thanks

[normal cedar]

any idea what this even was? I cant find any info on it anywhere...

[wind hazel]

this thing https://azurlane.mrlar.dev/db/equips/id/3980

from a 7day event

wait for rerun

[normal cedar]

damn, thanks mori

should I craft this for saint louis? I dont have the transitional purple gun recomended on ectl

[dreamy blade]

what guns do you have? that gun is good but it's not very high prio for gear lab mats

the purple twin 203 ca gun is from sakura boxes

[normal cedar]

I dont think any of the guns I have are good

[marsh sparrow]

you can exchange the 1931 straight from the proto shop,but its not recommend

[dreamy blade]

i would probably just use the triple 203 as a transitional gun

[marsh sparrow]

yup,eventually you will replace ur saint louis with a better ship

[honest sequoia]

hoard all ur OpSi mats for now
Cuz you’re gonna need a lot of them late game

There’s a gear lab priority on samheart en compendium

[normal cedar]

I see, sure then Ill use 203 triple, thanks
btw are the 533 quintuple or quadruple purple torpedo good? ectl only seems to reccomend the rainbow and gold versions

[dreamy blade]

theyre ok until you can get the gold, and they eventually can be upgraded into gold quad mags in gear lab

quad magnetic or quintuple non-magnetic

[normal cedar]

both magnetic

[dreamy blade]

quint magnetic is bad

unless it's the rainbow one

[normal cedar]

oh, so between 533 quad non mag vs 533 quad mag, which?

[whole crypt]

I doubt this one will rerun, might get the aux added to shop at some point

[dreamy blade]

both are fine, the non mag is better for mobbing

[normal cedar]

I see, I get it now! Thanks!
I didn't know magnetic ones are supposed to be homing

[dreamy blade]

oh ectl does list it

[normal cedar]

yea, but the gold and rainbow 533 magnetic is much higher up while 533 magnetic is not listed

[atomic abyss]

rainbow magnetic is a waste of resources sooo

also this is for louis right

why worry, her torps are shite

[normal cedar]

yes

[dreamy blade]

im guessing it's bc only the triple mag and quad non-mag can be upgraded into gold quad mags, but purple quad mag cannot and is purely for poverty gear

[atomic abyss]

just give her some spare torp

[normal cedar]

omg, thanks a lot! this helps with non lab gear

[dreamy blade]

yeah one of the best parts of the ectl update

[fiery swan]

How good are the new girls

[marsh sparrow]

pretty much decent at their own job

[atomic abyss]

kazan - good healer BB, but still an SR
D7P - top 3 AA DPS

[whole crypt]

can D7P 1:1 with Volga for 13-1 from say... around 105

[sterile jolt]

With 2 AA guns in slots?

[atomic abyss]

yes

[fiery swan]

Can someone help me make a boss fleet for 13-2

[marsh sparrow]

create a thread here,send your ships screenshot then people prob will join in and give advice

[whole crypt]

I mean it'll depend, since no one's got an answer I might have to test it myself when I get there

[fiery swan]

World 13 Help

[sterile jolt]

This game...

[vital quest]

officers sword or bowgun for kearsage?

[sterile jolt]

Sword

[atomic abyss]

sword

[vital quest]

officers sword or bowgun for NJ and FDG?

[sterile jolt]

Depends

[atomic abyss]

sword by default
bow on the rare occassion you fight heavy armour with bbs

[vital quest]

i've had bowgun equipped for both for a long time now for everyday operations, this is general scenario stuff. So for general scenario which augment is better?

[atomic abyss]

sword by default

[sterile jolt]

[vital quest]

bet. thanks

[boreal wagon]

bowgun actively sabotages you against light for instance

[sterile jolt]

"read passive moment"

[atomic abyss]

most relevant enemies are med
the others are mostly light

[boreal wagon]

he asked for a general augment so that statement doesnt really apply but you do you

[vital quest]

ah so for med enemies officers sword is ideal. On another note, the officers sword special ability states that the skill cannot stack, so if bothe NJ and FDG are in the same fleet with OS (officers sword), will that interfere?

[atomic abyss]

it does but it matters little

[honest sequoia]

No, just in general

[atomic abyss]

bow is just worse in most cases

[honest sequoia]

Just get sword for BBs
Don’t bother crafting bowgun
It’s always nice to have HIT stat

[zenith heron]

You rarely use the bowgun since its basically min-maxing certain dmg against a certain armor

[honest sequoia]

Well I use bowgun and 2 black shell for UvH

[sterile jolt]

Possible ig

[atomic abyss]

the bow gun was one thing but 2 black is

[cobalt rapids]

what does goldburn on volga do

[whole crypt]

lowcosting though so boss fleet is going to be uhhhh what was it, Independence/Shimanto?

[sterile jolt]

Just for more heal 😄 i mean, i remember her skills and that all

[whole crypt]

so no air superiority and no cross fleets

[sterile jolt]

Hmm, quite difficult to say for 105 d7

[whole crypt]

well by the looks of that a 110 might make it so I guess that still works

[cobalt rapids]

more heals
volga heals are time based not launch based and goldburn rld doesnt affect backline

[sterile jolt]

From her HP

[cobalt rapids]

ah i see stronger heals

[sterile jolt]

Just minmaxing heal a little, catapult maybe better

[whole crypt]

I'll try later my D7P still 86

[sterile jolt]

So tough, 15% hp both independence and shimanto

[last zenith]

hmmmmmm

[sterile jolt]

So yeah, low cost is possible, but why do you need to spend so much

[whole crypt]

it's just for leveling D7P while chip farming

[sterile jolt]

Xddddddddd

[rapid grail]

people still doing low cost 13-1 chip farming?

[whole crypt]

technically I don't really need to but I'm saving up for CN anniv

[last zenith]

hell ya we are

[rapid grail]

ah, fair enough ig

we? i been bulk leveling up botes in 12-2 instead

[whole crypt]

see that's the thing... some of us are running out of ships to bulk level in ch12

[rapid grail]

anyways ,how many points to farm this event and get the good stuff? Assuming I'm buying all the skin boxes

[whole crypt]

55k gold plates good

I'm doing 70k for books

[last zenith]

mhmmm

[sterile jolt]

[cobalt rapids]

why are u guys using shimanto over sandy?

[sterile jolt]

Love her more

[last zenith]

she good

[cobalt rapids]

good what ? she costs 1 extra oil and weaker than sandy

[last zenith]

she cuter

[cobalt rapids]

understandable

[solar canopy]

Between Musashi and FDG, which is better for mobbing?

[cobalt rapids]

musashi is the best

[solar canopy]

okay

[whole crypt]

good question probably old strat forgot sandy's aug

[last zenith]

sushi

[sterile jolt]

Fox sushi?....

[last zenith]

musashi=sushi

[sterile jolt]

Also, sushi is great for mobbing, but FdG still can be used in ch12 and ch14

[last zenith]

true enough

[forest palm]

I just call her Mu cause she may as well be a cow

[last zenith]

NO. THERES A COW FOR THAT

[wind hazel]

i dont call her. she calls me

[solar canopy]

hoo okay, for now i'm using them in OPSi

[last zenith]

respectable

[cobalt rapids]

rainbow bb in opsi mobbing are kind of a waste unless u have a rainbow dock

[solar canopy]

you mean rainbow dock to fight arbiter?

oh i already have Biscuit II, Alsace and Vanguard

[cobalt rapids]

well rainbow or not as long as u kill harby its fine

[last zenith]

use all of em:D

[sterile jolt]

Gold mobbing is a thing tho

[warped acorn]

finally i can beat ht1 event with uni yellow steam catapult sadly still not lv 50 to do 7-1

[solar canopy]

yeah it's fine, even though i have to use 2 fleets to beat her . sometimes 3 if i'm unlucky with helena's skill

[warped acorn]

shame to be me to see lv req

[solar canopy]

hoo okay, I also use Unicorn and Independence. But for the tank I use Blucher because I don't have Ibuki.

[marsh sparrow]

you dont use Ibuki as tank

[cobalt rapids]

why not

[marsh sparrow]

off tank is fine

[honest sequoia]

[cobalt rapids]

ibuki can tank opsi mobbing content fine but shes better off tank because of her barrage

[sterile jolt]

Ok, now we know. dont use ibuki as a tank.

And we also cant use noshiro as a tank in ch14 and below

Noted

[cobalt rapids]

[marsh sparrow]

um

[forest palm]

so we have two people digging holes I see

[sterile jolt]

Nah, not really

[marsh sparrow]

i guess just use anyone you prefer the most

[polar lion]

So DD tank

[cobalt rapids]

i used ibuki as my opsi mob tank ever since her aug

[wind hazel]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1201223529207709808.webp?size=56

[warped acorn]

how long does it take u to get a aug

[sterile jolt]

Everywhere, now DD is the most tankiest ships in the game. No joking

[wind hazel]

few weeks if start from zero

[warped acorn]

guess kazan first and then those chips?

[cobalt rapids]

poor napoli

[wind hazel]

nah, decide at the end of event

[sterile jolt]

Unlucky Napoli

[wind hazel]

kazan might drop tomorrow, or the day after, or on the last day, you might save some currency

[late flame]

save 8k for in case kazan didnt drop but yeah only get her at end of event

[warped acorn]

alr

gotta rob some augment stone

[last zenith]

ive been meaning to ask. Noshi is good wife but is she atually good

[wind hazel]

mediocre

[last zenith]

oh

so kawakaze it shall remain

[marsh sparrow]

wdym by that

[gaunt cedar]

do i just open t3 tech boxes is there another tier i should save up for

[wind hazel]

open purple and above

[last zenith]

kawakaze is good

she is enternal

[sterile jolt]

Yes, but shes just different

[last zenith]

she is superior

[sterile jolt]

How do you compare kawakaze and noshiro?

[wind hazel]

what are you two yapping about

[last zenith]

sakura empire dd

[marsh sparrow]

this is some high ah yapping

[last zenith]

both u can get from merit shop

[sterile jolt]

Idk

[wind hazel]

sir, this is gph 😭

[late flame]

#al-general exists you know

[last zenith]

OH I THOUGHT THIS WAS GENERAL

[sterile jolt]

[warped acorn]

damn

[cobalt rapids]

that explains it

[wind hazel]

but how do you explain Noshiro's feet??

ok jk im out

[rapid grail]

can this consistently clear strongholds? the entire map

[forest palm]

it has uni so sure

[sterile jolt]

Yeah

[last zenith]

hell ya it can

[rapid grail]

neat. gear? i been spamming rainbows for this

[silk helm]

is fritz rumey good for opsi mobbing? currently running pers/indep/fdg (but want to switch to a cv)

[sterile jolt]

You can change whatever you want

[cobalt rapids]

yes shes rainbow cv good

the better ones at that

[last zenith]

Ibuki is goodd

[silk helm]

ty

[sterile jolt]

2.2m exp in opsi... Wow just noticed

[last zenith]

mhmmm

[silk helm]

OPSI FLEET HELP!!!

[nova crane]

why cant i use bismarck in the event mode

[silk helm]

she's currently in battle

[nova crane]

but where???

[feral leaf]

Sirens maybe?

[nova crane]

like where in hard mode ohhhhh

[feral leaf]

Or if you didn't retreat out of a battle fully she could be stuck in there?

[sterile jolt]

In commisions

[feral leaf]

Could I get some help making up a team to fight this boss?

[nova crane]

hmmmm

[eager mulch]

[rapid grail]

I can run these then, will check out later when doing c3 runs and strongholds later. Got too lazy putting +13s on gear

[cobalt rapids]

did felix gun become the new meta while i was away ?

[sterile jolt]

Nope. I just prefer ap guns in mob fleets

[cobalt rapids]

[atomic abyss]

just so you know, CL gun ammo type can be ignored outside skills

what matters more is the gun numbers itself

[atomic abyss]

why? cos all of them have the same pattern of
"strong against light, decent against med, underwhelming vs heavy"

[warped acorn]

whats the diff of sub torp type between magnetic and normal?

[atomic abyss]

magnetic torps home

[cobalt rapids]

home vs homeless

[atomic abyss]

same logic applies to surface torpedoes too

[sterile jolt]

Thats not the reason why i used ap guns. I use for piercing stuff

[soft raft]

only problem is it's barely worth it to go out of your way to craft most AP CL guns

unless 1) It's Plymouth gun or 2) you're poor so you're just using whatever you can get

[sterile jolt]

Ive just testing these guns with Fritz and felix. That the reason why i have them. I just put ap guns and only. As i said, i just prefer this, cuz ita ap and i am alredy have them

[atomic abyss]

well you do you

[sterile jolt]

.

[warped acorn]

any of these good?

[atomic abyss]

no

[last zenith]

WAIT GUYS before I mess my friend up. Z23 is the best starter right

[cobalt rapids]

if its not mentioned as poverty in the guide its not good

[atomic abyss]

out of all the easily obtainable BB guns, the only relevant ones are these

any gold BB guns from boxes are worse than these

[warped acorn]

hmmm

[cobalt rapids]

they are about equal it doesnt rly matter
they all have faction tech to contribute to that is fine aswell

[atomic abyss]

best because of tech
not cos of how they play

[last zenith]

o.

[late flame]

also eventually you will get all starters

[last zenith]

then im good

[warped acorn]

ah that 406mm again

[last zenith]

hes starting brand new acc not getting stuff anytime soon

[cobalt rapids]

good thing they drop from like ch2

[last zenith]

oh ya....

[grave ivy]

Thoughts on Parseval? Im planning to develop her in shipyard

[whole crypt]

if you have Implacable you don't really need her
otherwise you if you can get her to FS5 she's one of the better stoppers

[honest sequoia]

isnt avp fs5 and implac the same

but implac has better debuff

[cedar hawk]

Guys, what equipment should I give New Jersey?

[atomic abyss]

far worse damage

[errant fog]

With no particular reason whatsoever, is there a good 2nd sub fleet I can build with the unuse girls here? The first 3 is obviously an old wolfpack i had.

And yeah sadge I didn't managed to get davinci on her event.. Ik shes stronk

[atomic abyss]

for what purpose
campaign?

[honest sequoia]

well yes i mean by their timestop skill

[cedar hawk]

What's that?

[atomic abyss]

flasher, HOMURA**, 556m

[atomic abyss]

as in, the story chapters, event, operation siren?
what are you going to use NJ for?

[cedar hawk]

Ahh
Those yes

[cobalt rapids]

implac slow is better because it slowly reverts unlike avps whose goes right away to normal

[atomic abyss]

so which?
not specific enough
gun choice would vary

[cedar hawk]

Story chapters and events

[atomic abyss]

this then

[normal cedar]

is the square a result of rodney meta's skill?

[cobalt rapids]

arimeta

[polar lion]

What's the strongest boss fleet vs Light?

[atomic abyss]

kear yk2 nakhi/impla
assuming full HVARs

otherwise just use a UR BB fleet of Alsace Bis 2 Soyuz

[cedar hawk]

Ahh I see
And what should I give Warspite?

[atomic abyss]

same

tho you probably shdnt use her

[polar lion]

Alsace Bizwei Soyuz beats Vanny variant?

[atomic abyss]

handily yes

outside CM

[cedar hawk]

I'm currently trying to build Nelson and Kazagumo
I don't remember why though

[polar lion]

Thanks

[atomic abyss]

nelson > warspite

kazagumo is a frontliner

[polar lion]

Nyak beats Fritz variant too for Kear comp?

[errant fog]

maggi is not good or no good sub girls to pair with her?

[atomic abyss]

homura stonks

[cedar hawk]

Here's my current fleet

[atomic abyss]

556m stonks

maggi is good, just 556m and homura are better

[atomic abyss]

yeah pretty bad
nelson still better with her retrofit

regardless, warspite shd be in the middle

[cedar hawk]

Ahh I see
Do I use both?

[atomic abyss]

no

[cedar hawk]

Just Nelson then?

[atomic abyss]

yes

[errant fog]

Thankies

[cedar hawk]

Okie doki
Where should I put Kazagumo?

[atomic abyss]

replace norfolk

or put her in the other fleet

[honest sequoia]

ur most welcomed

[cedar hawk]

Okie doki
Here's my other fleet

[atomic abyss]

eugen in first slot, helena in middle, kazagumo last
cleveland replaces norfolk

[wheat ore]

how should i get rid of these bullins

[cedar hawk]

Alright then
So I can use Kazagumo in any of the fleets?

[wheat ore]

I have too many and my fleet is fully limit broken

[atomic abyss]

use them to LB purples you're not using

[atomic abyss]

she is a carrier buffer so yes

[cedar hawk]

Gotcha

[wheat ore]

ah okay, should i level up the purples with my exp books?

[cedar hawk]

What equipment should I give Nelson?

[wheat ore]

cuz all of them are lvl 1

[atomic abyss]

to 30 at least

[wheat ore]

how about gold ships? And do you not recommend leveling past 30 with the books?

[atomic abyss]

not using dont level

point here is to use up the purple bulins

gold bulins run out quickly

so dont use them willy nilly

[wheat ore]

ah okay gottcha

[cedar hawk]

What should I give Kazagumo?

[teal cedar]

I wish I had your problem

[atomic abyss]

blue 76mm main gun
2 toolboxes
AA use a gold one

[cedar hawk]

So this gun right here?

[stark quiver]

Yes

[wheat ore]

is she worth using/ investing gold into?

[atomic abyss]

Yes

[atomic abyss]

If you already unlocked her
Might as well
Needs her augment tho

[cedar hawk]

Is anti air needed or?

[atomic abyss]

A gold one

Her AA isn't that good

[wheat ore]

wait what are augments? Is that the blueprint things

I have no idea how these pr ships work

[honest stirrup]

Melee weapon, the special gear thing

[wheat ore]

like these? I don't think Ive ever used them

[atomic abyss]

The last slot with the +

[wheat ore]

ohh, wait are you meant to try and get one for all the ships in your fleet?

[honest stirrup]

No

[atomic abyss]

No

Ships like Louis have UNIQUE augments

[honest stirrup]

(unique means gold)

[wheat ore]

do I have it?

[honest stirrup]

You need to craft it

Click on the last slot shown by Ender's screenshot (it should take you to the gear equipping page anyways iirc) and craft one from there

[wheat ore]

oh i see, so let's say for javelin, is it worth it to craft an augment for her?

[cedar hawk]

Is this right or

[wind hazel]

very wrong

[honest stirrup]

They're expensive in terms of material, so just focus on the ones you're sure to use a lot

[cedar hawk]

Man, I wish I knew this game inside and out like the rest of you guys TwT
What should I do?

[wheat ore]

but can you not transfer the augment to another ship or is it bound to one

[wind hazel]

give her mk6

[honest stirrup]

Gold? They're unique
Purple? You can change to any other ship of the same hull type (BB, CA, DD etc)

[wind hazel]

here you go

[warped acorn]

do i upgrade purple mk6 to lv 10

[foggy phoenix]

Can someone tell me where I can find the Stats for Bismarck Zwei her summon? It seems to have a secondary gun and fire at stuff. Where can I find the relevant stats?

[wheat ore]

oh i see so I should craft some purple ones in that case cuz i might as well?

[normal cedar]

Its not showing the ur bulin unique augument for me, is there some other way to get it

I cant craft it?

[wind hazel]

it's from event

[tame jungle]

pretty sure that was an event only thing

[wind hazel]

april fool if im not wrong

[normal cedar]

damn, f
no rerun then either

[wind hazel]

maybe not, who knows. either way it's useless

[honest stirrup]

It's useless anyways so....

[tame jungle]

collection player

[wind hazel]

already missed Kizuna Ai, why even live

[polar lion]

https://azurlane.mrlar.dev/db/barrages/id/16760

[crimson marsh]

do we know what the next rerun will be? or the next ur rerun?

im assuming the next ur one will be bismarck zwei

[honest sequoia]

potentially zwei**

[cedar hawk]

What if I don't have the triple 400?

[wind hazel]

impossible

[cedar hawk]

There's no possible replacement I see

[foggy phoenix]

Dual Jap 410 HE purple maybe?

[cedar hawk]

Will a blue one work?

[honest sequoia]

you should only be using either these 2

if u have the blue one just use it

[polar lion]

I want absolute powahh xfleet. What do I change?

[raw ravine]

I just started and got kurks, which skill should I max out first?

[cedar hawk]

I can use either of those?

[honest sequoia]

yes
but the left one is preferred

both are good in their own use
left good for bossing or just general
right good for mobbing or ships with skills that procs on firing

[dull zealot]

How many ships that has 2 anti air gun? Or is Zeven the first one?

[cedar hawk]

Ahh I see
I only have one of the right currently
But that's on New Jersey

[honest stirrup]

do you count the repair ships

[dull zealot]

Well, any ship in general

[honest stirrup]

Repair ships

[dull zealot]

only them?

[honest sequoia]

yes just use it
you can get them from gear box

[dull zealot]

Aight

[honest stirrup]

Seattle too, but that's all I have in mind

[cedar hawk]

What can I use for New Jersey then?

[tacit star]

is it worth to do the build 1 ship challenge?

[dull zealot]

Wait does she have? I remember she doesn't

[honest sequoia]

just use the twin 410mm for now if thats all you have

[honest stirrup]

If you ONLY do 1 light banner per day you don't lose any cube

[dull zealot]

Or maybe you're thinking of Chesire

[cedar hawk]

Alright then
I'll swap them out

[tacit star]

best banner for it is light right?

[honest stirrup]

First gear is main gun
Second gear is either main CL gun or AA
Third is AA

[tacit star]

or i can spend it on any banner that cost 1 cube

[dull zealot]

oh yeah, aight

[honest stirrup]

The light banner is the only one to cost 1 cube except very very very rare events

[honest sequoia]

just rmb these 2 gun is all you need for now
you can +10 these guns along the way
the triple 406 is the 2nd best HE gun

[stark quiver]

whats marco polo doing there, whats uvh doing there, whys fritz by herelf, the vanguards are horrible

[wind hazel]

they are all crossfleets

[stark quiver]

lwk thought they were actual fleets

uhmm throw in unzen

[wind hazel]

add unzen, i assume z52 is in actual fleet. and depends on what fleet you wanna use, indep might be useful

[stark quiver]

indep is useful yea

i used these

[warped acorn]

random 406mm spotted

[cedar hawk]

Okie doki then

[normal cedar]

do all equally, start with lone wolf first if you have more blue books

[raw ravine]

I see, thanks!

[cedar hawk]

What anti air weapon should I add for New Jersey?

[wind hazel]

UR 76>Staag>Hazemeyer>any gold>purple stuff

[honest sequoia]

hes new

yea any purple anti air you have

[wind hazel]

new player shouldnt have NJ

[polar lion]

Yea my mob fleet is Aquila, Indep, Unikai : Z52, Ibuki, Unzen

[honest sequoia]

then how is he even using a blue twin 410mm...

[polar lion]

Nano, Vanny, Implap xfleet not so useful tho

[wind hazel]

ask him, not me

[honest sequoia]

[wind hazel]

i've listed the best to worst AA gun anyway, not sure what you want to argue about

[cedar hawk]

I haven't played any game in months due to college and stress
And I also haven't been able to install it before due to storage issues

[stark quiver]

dam

[honest sequoia]

well how new or old is your acc?
based on your current campaign progression

relatable

[warped acorn]

upgrade voro def skill isnt bad idea right?

[cedar hawk]

I'm currently on chapter 8

[atomic abyss]

ships you use or intend to use shd have the skills raised yes

[honest sequoia]

and you dont have a purple main gun-?

[cedar hawk]

Oddly enough, I've pulled New Jersey three times which was strange

[warped acorn]

what how

[cedar hawk]

Nope

[atomic abyss]

then use the purple 410

which the game gives for free...

[honest sequoia]

was it free??
or maybe i forgotten while i started AL years ago

[wind hazel]

they are both free

[warped acorn]

i might going to find ways to get lv 50 quickly before dock explode due to no gem to expand

[honest sequoia]

then idk how does he not have either both of those

[atomic abyss]

retire them

[wind hazel]

actually 410 isnt free kek

[honest sequoia]

[wind hazel]

but it might as well be free, both come from techbox anyway

[atomic abyss]

game gives 410 for free from beginner missions not 406 mori

[wind hazel]

is wiki lying

[cedar hawk]

For NJ?

[atomic abyss]

yeah they both are the best guns you get early on

[stark quiver]

for what

[wind hazel]

in getting mk6 for free

[stark quiver]

im in a 3x cant check

[wind hazel]

stop being so good

[stark quiver]

ill come back in around 12 hours

[warped acorn]

possibility he scrapped it 🤔

[wind hazel]

maybe

[honest sequoia]

[warped acorn]

i remember getting it for free and no use until recommended to use pennsy

[stark quiver]

[honest sequoia]

AL is doomed atp 💔

[wind hazel]

[left cedar]

i also remeber about a fre mk6, not 410

but, how many ages i dint see that thing ?

[wind hazel]

at least 2

[left cedar]

my memory isnt something u trust like that ...

[paper walrus]

what is the difference between hidden and explorable in opsi

[left cedar]

explorable its once, have more targets, and u need a item or use a 30m cooldown action or explore in manuel
safe u can done infinite times and have 3 targets with XP and no fog

hiden is a special zone that u need a item, have more loots than conventional maps

[honest stirrup]

Hidden needs the coordinate box and is slightly harder but gives better rewards.
Explorable is the normal map parts and can be completed once before they turn into "secured". You can access any explorable at any order if you have the 4k oil thing

[paper walrus]

thanks 🙏

[hushed sorrel]

I want to replace a single fleet for operation siren. please recommend me a good one for the current "world" boss

[left cedar]

u mean Harby ?
also better for who gona help u that u make a thread and post ur ships there

[cobalt rapids]

kear yk2 fritz eldr aurora helena

[polar lion]

Y not brute force with a couple fleet?

[hushed sorrel]

i usually dont beat the epic boss, so no i dont really know

[hushed sorrel]

thank you i will try that one

[rapid grail]

a bb fleet and a cv fleet (alternatively a hybrid fleet) can beat arbiter and harbiter just fine

[left cedar]

alot of combinations can work to beat harby

iirc, i did this month with Thurin in fleet ... need Mob to finish it, but it work at end
this are more about sync correctly and gears than ships itself

[hushed sorrel]

i usually just take the same fleets for years, so i never beat the harbiter

regeneration helped with arbiter xD

[tall bane]

should i build Ulrich von Hutten or Vanguard cuz i have 4 ur bullin

[wind hazel]

wait for CN anniversary, then ask again

[left cedar]

none, w8 4 CN anny UR

[soft raft]

what other URs do you have?

[tall bane]

I am gonna send an img

[wind hazel]

same answer

[tall bane]

damn that took a while to load

[rapid grail]

get shinano dupes. Save these 4 purins for the upcoming UR/s (yes, plural) this coming May (because CN Anni)

[marsh sparrow]

atm thats an UR event coming very soon,you can wait for the UR ship review then decide who you should spent the bulins on

[tall bane]

i have 3 shinanos lol 1 max 2 based

[rapid grail]

wait CN anni only release 1 UR?

[wind hazel]

nobody knows

[tall bane]

ok

[rapid grail]

anyways ig get Vanguard dupes instead of Shinano's

[tall bane]

i have the dupes a while ago

[wind hazel]

😭 dupe is not what they are asking for...

[rapid grail]

[marsh sparrow]

they asking for which ship to use UR bulins on

[tall bane]

yes i was seeing which to prioritise Ulrich von Hutten or Vanguard lol

[wind hazel]

exactly

[rapid grail]

then neither, for now

[tall bane]

xd

[wind hazel]

finally we're on same page

[rapid grail]

mb, i usually shitpost somewhere else. this + forgetting to read

[tall bane]

hahahahaa

[hushed sorrel]

quick question, yk2 is yorktown2 and helena was meant to be the normal one (not the meta one)?

[cobalt rapids]

yes and yes

[hushed sorrel]

good, would be bad to get on reload time (redeployment time) after changing it wrongly :D

[tawdry halo]

Need secondary for Helena

[normal cedar]

is 127 better than 128? I thought 128 was better so I +6'd it and gave it to all my 12 ships...

[atomic abyss]

just use the +6 single 127

[atomic abyss]

yes
best poverty would be twin 120 tho

purple twin 128 is kinda bad

[tawdry halo]

Ight

Like this?

[atomic abyss]

also swap sandy main and portland's secondary

twin 100 better for sandy

[tawdry halo]

What.

[atomic abyss]

what do you mean what

[tawdry halo]

oh ok,,,

What about portland

[atomic abyss]

give portland the twin 120 instead so you can give sandy the gold twin 100

[tawdry halo]

Ahh

Does Helena need AA

[atomic abyss]

purple twin 127 is worse than the purple single 127

only the gold twin 127 beats the single 127

[forest palm]

you're one most likely at a point where AA isn't an issue and two Helena's damage is pitiful at any stage of the game

[tawdry halo]

Is this fine for Helena

[grave cove]

Is there a guide anywhere for Eagle Union tech points? Trying to get enough for Anchorage

[normal cedar]

There is none afaik, I'm also doing the same and used the wiki :
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Fleet_Technology#tabber-tabpanel-Eagle_Union-2

[atomic abyss]

nope
the assumption is you max limit break the numerous US ships you already have

[forest palm]

do you have either of these 2? as it would be more beneficial than a Torp Bulge

[tawdry halo]

I have spare ones I think

[forest palm]

either one works they're effectively the same thing

[tawdry halo]

[normal cedar]

is baltimore's EU aa skill worth anything in w13? 7% aa and 15%avi sounds nice on paper...

[forest palm]

not really

[atomic abyss]

her own AA isnt remarkable so no

it isnt bad, but it isnt AA carry material either

[tawdry halo]

Do I keep the repair kit

[atomic abyss]

repair kit + 1 of them yes

[normal cedar]

I see, thanks

[tawdry halo]

Need help on disassembling purple gears

I just need to know which one is worth keeping either for use or research in future and which is complete trash in usage and research

last guide

old but still applicable

[normal cedar]

I got 23k points in event, is this enough? for milestones and shop both
kinda wanna do 11-1 to level up ships since it's hard to do so on ht3

[whole crypt]

there's another week or so you can come back for more later

[tawdry halo]

I only found rare rarity

[normal cedar]

ok, thanks!

[tawdry halo]

[atomic abyss]

???

did you scroll down lol

[whole crypt]

these aren't gear you keep, they're gear you scrap

[tawdry halo]

Pain

[atomic abyss]

those are purple and gold yes

[raw ravine]

hey everyone, is there an easier way to train ships to level up quickly? dorm is abit too slow (but I still put) should I grind out in campaign or events?

[hushed sorrel]

i use 12-4 for exp and coin, in times where i got enough coin i do 12-1. this is the recommendation i got here. not my own knowlegde

[raw ravine]

so far I only got to 10-1, even putting on 9-4 (cleared and safe) they die quickly is there another way?

or are they supposed to die everytime hahaha, I'm talking about like a fresh ship I just pulled and want to put in fleet

[hushed sorrel]

sorry as i said "not my knowlegde" we gotta wait for someone with more

[tame jungle]

no they're not supposed to die every time

farming 12-1 or 4 pretty much always assumes you at least have some levels on them + they're max limit broken

[raw ravine]

I see, how bout to get them just about lvl 80 or 90 ish

[tame jungle]

that should be mostly fine

[raw ravine]

that makes sense

[ivory pawn]

Use the books you got from farming with 100+ ships to help get your ships to 80 or whatever.

[tame jungle]

for now, just go play the event. you'll need a lot of event points anyways and the xp and coins gained from that are not negligible

[hushed sorrel]

he want to rise his main fleet to 80/90

if i understood correctly

[raw ravine]

yeah its for fresh ships I just puled

from 80/90+ it makes sense to do 12

[tame jungle]

when there's an event, always do event

at least, until you hit the relevant milestone(s), which in this case is probably 55k event points

[hushed sorrel]

wait 55k? so many? for what exactly

[sterile jolt]

Gold plates

[raw ravine]

one question, to train new ships. should I go full fleet or just 1 main 1 vg is fine?

[tame jungle]

gold plates iirc (i haven't actually checked milestones this time around but it's usualy that)

[tame jungle]

most farmed maps have oil cap, which means that you can run 3:3

[sterile jolt]

You're right

[hushed sorrel]

thats a lot of points, maybe i try it.

[tame jungle]

and you'll use a set amount of oil, which drastically improves your oil efficiency

[gaunt cedar]

do i use money to buy tech boxes from shop mainly

[soft raft]

not really

[fiery swan]

Is it normal for a super underleveled "modern" fleet to clear 13-4 on lethal without even going below 3/4 HP

[inner delta]

what modern

but like 13-4 isn't that hard anymore with most of the new addition as long you got the right ship, with underlv its mostly fine

[stark quiver]

Well if modern means
Musashi,unicorn, zuihou/aquila
Laffey2,52,eld with max gear
Maybe

[fiery swan]

Like for example my Z52 is like 107/108 and she is not taking damage, and even Sandy Kai (aug) at 110 didn't go below 75% against boss

[stark quiver]

uhh yah because backline carry

[soft raft]

Z52 is also cracked in general in the AA Department
Esp when she was primarily made for W15 which has more planes than W13

[foggy minnow]

any recommandations for my second fleet which i should use ? Thinking about using De Zeven or Takao as third Vanguard but dk which could be used in Main.

[sinful socket]

should I max out the Tulipa ships in preparation to a Tulipa PR ?

[ivory pawn]

Nah. I highly, highly doubt they’ll make a PR that requires Tulipa ships anytime soon. And if I’m wrong, you can just raise them then.

Not like you’ll get the blueprints before you finish raising the ships anyways.

[silent viper]

is Kazan any good, or do I use my event currency elsewhere?

[soft raft]

You dont look ready for a 2nd fleet at all

early on it's better to focus your resources on 6 ships instead of spreading yourself thin among 12 ships, esp when it's likely most of your options are painfully average at best

[soft raft]

if they do, they'll prob subsitute another nation for the required points
they did this with Saint Louis back when the French were barely a thing

[ivory pawn]

Save 8k for her in case she doesn’t drop from farming, but you do want one copy.

[sinful socket]

no Unicorn ?

[foggy minnow]

unicorn is in mainfleet

[sinful socket]

oh ok

you can probably be ok with 1 fleet up to W12-13

I was ok

[zinc prairie]

When was PR7 released? And how much La-9 have anyone gotten since then? (Currently 49/50 for 1)

[soft raft]

better to do it at like W9-10
I solo'd up to W12 and it was annoying having to raise a boss fleet after I hit a wall at 12-3

[soft raft]

July 2024
And yes depending on how hard they focused on the gear researches

[foggy minnow]

atm i am at 9-1 so should i go maybe then for world 10 or 11 before second fleet?

[soft raft]

W9-10 like I said
tho your current problem is that your vanguard options look pretty underwhelming outside of the ships you've already raised

[sinful socket]

did you do the research/newbie quests ? Tried to get a PR1 Ship Roon/Saint Louis/Ibuki

[foggy minnow]

didnt tried pr1 yet. and the newbie/research halfways ignored/forgot them in the early

[sinful socket]

also good Vanguard option could be Sandy Retrofit, Yuudachi Retrofit

[sinful socket]

now is a good time to start, there are some of the best ships there

[foggy minnow]

so portland level up to 70 it is then for the quests. should i do the pr too then ?

[sinful socket]

Portland is also an amazing vanguard early on

Helena is also great

tbf my Vanguard was Helena, Sandy Retrofit, and Yuudachi Retrofit, and I had no problem clearing w12

[foggy minnow]

hmm do u have some ideas / Advices for Main ?

[foggy minnow]

guess i try something like that for the vanguard but think will use portland and helena and think about the last position in the vanguard

[onyx burrow]

anyone know if u gear labs an enhanced gear if it transfers over or just reset or it refunds u the books

[harsh kettle]

As someone who maxed Zeven out, if you do not have an off-tank invest. If you do, don't. From what I've read she acts more like a side grade/add-in for those who don't have the superior versions. Also if you don't have a good anti-air she's amazing. She can heal your team while also being a surprisingly decent mobbing fleet from what I've seen so far

(This is from my limited knowledge and toying around in World 5, 6, 7 without touching the gacha much so, a long standing vet could probably go into a more detailed analysis of her if they wanted to. I just like elves )

[turbid dawn]

Bit of a strange question but first month of OpSi where I haven’t been able to play much, I’ve cleared enough zones to unlock all tiers of the shop is it better to use the AP I have saved up on the hidden zones or the explorable ones for the most rewards?

[covert phoenix]

Welp, I accidentally burned 165 blueprints of Bayard because I accidentally unchecked the "save blueprints for fate simulation" button

Can someone tell me if AL tech support can help me recover this?

[eternal basalt]

It refunds your PARTS

[onyx burrow]

is it the full refund or a partial

[eternal basalt]

Full

[cobalt rapids]

close to 0

[covert phoenix]

[cobalt rapids]

u most likely will get enough by the time she gets fs5 again

[eternal basalt]

Nope

[eternal basalt]

Explorable I say, are you done with chapter 4 atleast?

[turbid dawn]

What is chapter 4?

[eternal basalt]

The OPS story

You need 14/14 for OPS to reset at the end of the month, if not done that do it soon

[turbid dawn]

Haha I’m 357/360 stars for OpSi so yeah, it was just a case of first month I haven’t played too much so haven’t fully cleared it so wondered what best use of AP is

I did the story when it first came out

[gaunt cedar]

i have lvl 2 bulin and cant use it to limitbreak?

[eternal basalt]

Select lvl > 1 at the top

[gaunt cedar]

aha thanks

got meta nevada are these meta ships worth it over normal ones?

[cobalt rapids]

a few golds are good , most golds are average but alot have good tech cruisepass included

and no u shouldnt use orignal nevada or nevada meta unless ure grinding tech

[gaunt cedar]

ok thanks

[eternal basalt]

META's don't take dockspace btw, so feel free to gather them all

[forest palm]

[thorn tartan]

we only have 2 ships to pull for in this 2 week event?

[ivory pawn]

Yes.

[thorn tartan]

well that is managable

[ivory pawn]

+2 from milestones/shop.

[thorn tartan]

just got the gold one. now just need the 26m one

[woven star]

Nevada and her meta have 1rld both tech points at lvl 120. So for some future end game it give you profit.

[eternal basalt]

+1 NPC

[sweet schooner]

Which CA and CL should I focus more on? As I struggle with gold bulletin

[cobalt rapids]

i mean the best option here is d7p but depends on ur dock and where ure at

[sweet schooner]

Uhh currently at 5 as I’m stubborn on getting kaga, but luck is not on my side as I’ve gotten 4 Akagi’s instead

[cobalt rapids]

the general advice is to push first get settled in oilcap and then comeback later to farm collection when u can lowcost it

they wont go anywhere

[sweet schooner]

Well it’s my second account so I’m just taking my sweet time, and these are units I never used on my main acc

[paper walrus]

I got anchorage agir and avp. Whos next?

[cobalt rapids]

fdg

[paper walrus]

I have her too

[cobalt rapids]

are u still coining DRs?

[paper walrus]

Yep

[cobalt rapids]

then get harbin or ply

[paper walrus]

Actually fdg is dev30 and im doing agir now. I dont care about fs for now

[paper walrus]

Is there a point in getting ply since i cant coin her?

[cobalt rapids]

yes ply becomes usable when paired with UR bbs depending on ur dock at d15+
get haku if aegir is ~d25

[paper walrus]

Ok thanks

[little tree]

~~ fs is very good in fdg

[worldly pewter]

i feel like the stress of catching up on the shipyard is very high after the pr4 coining

[little tree]

The stress of trying to catchup when you have 7 seasons and only pr 4 done

[paper walrus]

I know but getting agir to 25 has a higher priority to me for now

[worldly pewter]

no i meant from the perspective of a fresh start

[little tree]

~~ it still feels that way after playing for a year so many ships to level~~

[worldly pewter]

if it was only ships the matter would have been a lot simpler to solve but the issue is that somehow the mechanic involves both ships and gear which is making the stress even higher imo the reason now i only go with what faer established

[cobalt rapids]

theres no stress because older stuff becomes more irrelevant

[worldly pewter]

#gameplay-help message

[forest palm]

[gaunt cedar]

if you struggle with anti air is it worth building backside ships for higher health if most of them are only rare

[cobalt rapids]

uhm where do u struggle with anti air exactly?
u deal with enemy planes with good guns and your own planes and using ships strong aa guns

[gaunt cedar]

3-2 i dont have good aa guns

[cobalt rapids]

u wont need em

overpower the stage through lvls

[gaunt cedar]

so still should i build aviation ships if mine are currently low rarity

[little tree]

This any good

[gaunt cedar]

i guess i just farm these levels more for xp

[cobalt rapids]

you dont rly have access to good aa guns that early just try to use the best poverty gear
you should be using the newbie fleet to one fleet to oilcap

[cobalt rapids]

slow but good dmg, one of the better gold parallel tbs

[gaunt cedar]

what does newbie fleet mean? portland indianapolis and laffey?

[ivory pawn]

Unicorn - Pennsylvania - Long Island - Portland - Helena - Laffey
Long Island can be swapped if you have another good CV.

[cobalt rapids]

unicorn penny + 1 - portland helena starter

[gaunt cedar]

ok thanks

[worldly pewter]

buy breguet from the core data shop if u want a wyvern sidegrade

[little tree]

I have 2 wyvern and 4 burgers

[worldly pewter]

a fellow baguette enjoyer

[little tree]

I thought that vit was converging

[cobalt rapids]

thats mode change

[little tree]

Is it worth getting a second ply gun before la 9's

[cobalt rapids]

no

[native ravine]

what is the best stage to grind exp for the fleets?

[cobalt rapids]

w12+ after ure done farming event

[paper walrus]

What is the use of harbin?

[cobalt rapids]

dmg dealer

shes kinda of a filler till u get better ships

[paper walrus]

🙏

[forest palm]

crazy how fast Harbin fell off

[ionic kraken]

is it a good idea to get the extra kazan copies in the event? or just use bulins to lb?

[forest palm]

if you get Shop Ship as a Drop no reason to buy it, if you already bought one copy also no reason to purchase further copies

[cobalt rapids]

usually just 1 copy because grinding event stages extra is ineff for xp and coins

[ionic kraken]

i see thanks!

[white agate]

so, no jp patchnotes about it yet right?

this

don't expect any major reveals till May Stream tbh

[viscid swift]

We already got that announcement on EN though

Just says the rookie missions are being reworked and progress for everyone will be reset when that happens

[forest palm]

ya no that was in response to their question

[viscid swift]

No and given that's still a month off don't expect anything on that until then

[forest palm]

and thanks for reiterating what I just said

[viscid swift]

I mean I wouldn't even expect reveals in the May Stream necessarily

[harsh kettle]

So I am on the newer side of things, and while I have a general grasp of what is going I have a question regarding event grinding campaign pushing: Since I do not have tons of oils, is it just flat out better to 1 ship farm in event until it ends? (If I can even 1 ship farm? Pretty sure I can, but would have to test it out)

[worldly pewter]

1:1 tech is very sweaty and usually not recommended
usually it is done in the B stages in the A B C D format

personally i only did the low cost strat on the hvar farming in D3

[woven star]

T3 still doable with low cost 0lb fleet format but too long

34 oil for 80 event coins

and depends on your crossfleet UR fleet

and one more. I tried 1:1 H3 with Nevada 0lb and z52 - doable... 136 oil per 180 coins and it's not efficient. so no recommendation

[stark quiver]

Just full fleet it
You’re gonna end up dying and waste more oil than have you just passed the stage

[harsh kettle]

Noted

[stark quiver]

1:1 are for /event farming
And low stage campaign farming (<9)

[native ravine]

what if i dont have 12?

[stark quiver]

Push to w12

[worthy pike]

is it worth it using gems for this

also do skins give anything special or are those just pure cosmetics

i just used my gems twice throughout my entire playthrough since idk on what i should use them for

[worthy pike]

as you can see tho i spent 300 for 1 slot

also does the morale increase without having to use the food items?

[rain vine]

skins are purely cosmetic
if youre f2p, gems are best used to get enough dorm space to fit your mob fleet (including 2nd floor) and dock space to make farming more comfortable

[vale spindle]

yes

[vale spindle]

yes i recommend unlocking 1 more slot or the 2nd floor as well

[hushed sorrel]

i guess rather the 2nd floor is better than one more. its enough to give 6 ships moral reg

[paper walrus]

I have 5 on each floor unlocked. On one hand it would be nice to fit an entire fleet inside but on the other hand 1200 gems is so expensive i can get 60 dock space with that much

[hushed sorrel]

thats to much as f2p, your gems are counted. it may be a soft count but the gems that are earned decrease

[tiny reef]

what does the second floor do? That is new since the last time I played

[hushed sorrel]

the second floor gives all ships on that floor moral regeneration but no exp

[robust onyx]

Faster morale recovery

[topaz smelt]

has there been any info on newb mission reworks?

[tiny reef]

oh thats handy -- how many slots?

[viscid swift]

No

[steady rain]

on the /gems command it says to get 3 dorm slots, should i ignore it and get 4 slots instead?

[hushed sorrel]

the same number you unlocked in the first

[viscid swift]

Matches the same number of slots as the first floor at any given point

[topaz smelt]

k ill come back next month

[viscid swift]

Also pretty sure it's been in the game since day one

[tiny reef]

oh dang lol I never noticed

I just have the 5 slots from free gems

[hushed sorrel]

well alteast you gain exp

i dont think it would be wise to buy the second etage in your case except you use money. you need as many dock slots as possible

these are whats mostly needed

[tame jungle]

ideally you still want 6 slots so you can run a full 3:3 fleet so with 5 slots it's pretty awkward

[hushed sorrel]

typo i meant dock xD

the problem is the sixth slot is really expensive

[tame jungle]

then get 2nd floor boom

[hushed sorrel]

which would decrease his dock space he/she gains in the future. recycling ships really isnt funny

[tame jungle]

having to grind with 5 ships instead of 6 is also not funny in the long run

[hushed sorrel]

thats also true

[crisp geode]

I got both the white and black shell from core data this month, what else is good to get before reset? I did check the prio chart but i understood nothing and idk if i should save or get something - at 1,4k core data

[tame jungle]

how many black/white shells do you have? 3 each is a pretty decent investment

[crisp geode]

One of each

Sorry, one white and two black

[tame jungle]

right, i'd say get two more white shells and one more black shell and you'll be set

[crisp geode]

My flagship is hood, would it be good to get the blue shell?

[tame jungle]

the blue shell?? mario kart?

[crisp geode]

The royal navy one

[tame jungle]

accuracy stat is usually very valuable since battleships don't really get a lot of it as base

no, don't bother with the british shell, it isn't universal like white/black and i don't think it's even really much of an upgrade if at all over white shell on the british ships

[tiny reef]

Yeah it definitely gets odd sometimes, but I have enough leveled characters to swap with if moral gets low. I never really had an issue with dock space -- I have about a 100 extra slots right now which works for me. I think I will save up for the second floor if it comes to it

[crisp geode]

ok, ty

[hybrid portal]

Any recommendation for a fleet to use in operation siren

[hushed sorrel]

"umi no neko — gestern um 17:37 Uhr
kear yk2 fritz eldr aurora helena"
did had the same question. @hybrid portal

the time may vary depending on timezone

[stark quiver]

thats a hard arbiter fleet for this month

[hushed sorrel]

its also works better than a random fleet, i know from experience

[stark quiver]

idk if itll survive as a mob fleet

[hushed sorrel]

so many mobs ... the fleets all die sometime. you can almost always go outside and heal. just not in harbiter and most other bossfights (expept the normal arbiter)

dying against mobs really isnt a problem

[viscid swift]

or just use an actual mob fleet and save yourself the hassle

also who even knows if they have those ships, let alonge in a usable state

[hushed sorrel]

dunno dio never answered

and i couldnt really give another rec. since i am not the best fleetbuilder

[viscid swift]

then don't give one?

[hushed sorrel]

i gave the one i received, thats a safe call

[viscid swift]

ehh not really

biggest and most obvious is that Kearsarge and Yorktown 2 may not be Dev 30/MLB, eldridge may not be retroed etc

[hushed sorrel]

nobody told me these parts and i dont care. they still somewhat worked

[viscid swift]

and as has been demonstrated numerous times, many are not quite aware of how much of a difference LBs make

[hushed sorrel]

it was enough to make the difference vs my old fleet

lbs?

[viscid swift]

did you show your dock?

[hushed sorrel]

no i did not

i just generally asked like dio here, well except that i asked for a harbiter fleet.

[stark quiver]

hellow gph
whats the top opsi mob fleet?

[late flame]

unicorn + rainbows

[viscid swift]

well at least you knew enough to know we mean ships are assumed at MLB/Dev 30

and 120 among others, they do not

[hushed sorrel]

there were that even without any preparation so i never asked

[stark quiver]

any specifics?
i was thinking abt raising luna

[viscid swift]

yeah you did, they did not is my point

and correcting bad advice is a heck of a lot more work and a hassle

[late flame]

Basically opsi mob is just unicorn + any 5 good ships comp

Luna can work sure

[hushed sorrel]

so you mean i got a bad advice and its worse since i told other that stuff that i got?

[viscid swift]

no, I'm saying you gave advice without knowing the context of the player's dock or the state of their ships

[hushed sorrel]

well that was the same for me when i asked, absolutly the same situation.

[viscid swift]

the recc itself may be good or it may not be depending on the state of their ships

[late flame]

thing is no one has the same resources, hence what works for you would not always work for others

[viscid swift]

Rhenex more than likely vaguely remembered the state of your dock

so knew what you did and did not have from a previous time

[hushed sorrel]

how? i never uploaded any screenshots or any equip

[viscid swift]

same is not applicable to this situation

[viscid swift]

never, at all in this channel?

[hushed sorrel]

yes since its a hassle to make screenshots and send them to my pc. i never did

[viscid swift]

you can just take screen shots on your fine and send them via the discord app but that's besides the point

anyway, you're not exactly a stranger to this channel

and Rhenex, I trust his judgement and intution

[hushed sorrel]

that sounds nice

[viscid swift]

you're not new, you're asking about harbiter so you probably have an idea of what you're doing

[stark quiver]

ren ren

[viscid swift]

gave you a straight rec and if you couldn't put it together

[hushed sorrel]

i didnt even know its name, i was told its name today

[viscid swift]

then well you'd ask

[stark quiver]

cheeky do u trust my judgement and intuition

[hushed sorrel]

but fine i will not give my ship recs to other people

[viscid swift]

can you really say you know anything about the person who asked that question, where they were in the game

you just gave a recc blindly without knowing anything about their dock

and as I said, using such a fleet for mobbing is well

[hushed sorrel]

yeah better something than nothing. if it doesnt work he/she will be inteligent enough to see that a lv 1 ship wont do the job

[late flame]

Not if that something is misleading

[viscid swift]

no unconditionally but I trust you to make reccs independently

[viscid swift]

will they be competent enough to know a 5 star Kearsarge won't cut it though?

and if your answer is unconditionally yes
you have clearly not seen enough of what goes on here

[hushed sorrel]

of course nobody has that, if the information isnt given then we can only give common/bad advice. that should be clear to everyone

[viscid swift]

or, you could ask them for context before you give the advice

[hushed sorrel]

he/she will ask again for what the fleet is, you make it seem like the people just use whatever is being told

[viscid swift]

they do

and it's ended in diaster more than a few times

[hushed sorrel]

well atleast not because of me

maybe this time, i guess (we will see)

[stark quiver]

again, personal expereinces dont help in cases where one's situation is unknown

[viscid swift]

anyway to do this properly
what ships have you got to work with?

[hushed sorrel]

and his goal he want to fulfill with that fleet. if we want to add everything in a single question

[cobalt gate]

Which ones the most tanky

[stark quiver]

napoli probably

[viscid swift]

you're gonna have to conult mebot's ehp sheet for that

[stark quiver]

shes like d25 but, has most of her bulk there
just doesnt benefit from tech

[devout turret]

could i share my dock to get an idea of what to use for opsi fleets / what ships to raise?

[stark quiver]

same images

[stark quiver]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1HF6_hLEB8m_v0stp4DLGnIoDjgojvo7fjYz-cysjTMc/htmlview#
use this, napoli probably tankiest there, rest are idk

[viscid swift]

yes but in a thread

[stark quiver]

dio is awake

[hybrid portal]

Sharing a list of all ships isn't easy, its best if you pick whatever ships you think are great and i will come back and ask for alternatives on what im missing, how does that sound?

[viscid swift]

can you not just take some screen shots of your dock and post them here?

[eager mulch]

just put the screenshots in the chat lil bro

[whole crypt]

generally it's just filtering your dock to golds and rainbows then screenshotting it

[devout turret]

Opsi fleet elp

[viscid swift]

that's all your URs and SRs?

[hybrid portal]

yup

[viscid swift]

Mob: Owari, Unicorn, Theseus, Adalbart, Yuudachi, [flex]
Boss: Musashi, UvH, Enterprise, Saint Louis, Helena, San Diego

also don't use non M:B/dev 30 ships

[hybrid portal]

Thanks, will keep that try this out

[viscid swift]

oh and it goes without saying but level the non 120 ships to 120 asap

[hybrid portal]

any tip for fast leveling?

[viscid swift]

toss them into the mob fleet and farm 12-1 on repeat

[hybrid portal]

copy that

[viscid swift]

you might wanna give these 2 a read as well
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/equipment
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/research

[hybrid portal]

is this the correct layout

[viscid swift]

they're listed as flag, off flag, off flag, main tank, middle, off tank btw

[hollow gust]

UVH ew

[viscid swift]

grey, no

[slow fox]

Napoli

[whole crypt]

nocontexturshaming

[little tree]

~~ thats funny I don't see z52~~

[slow fox]

Good.

[grizzled sundial]

Which Eagle main ship to pair with York 2 ?

[whole crypt]

Kearsarge

[proud turret]

i think kaer is good

[hollow gust]

Best friends are enty and keary

[grizzled sundial]

Also , does her buff work for Hornet meta ?

[forest palm]

Hornet is a Meta not a USS ship

Meta are their own faction

[hollow gust]

shes technically still a yorktown class, but it shouldnt apply
