gameplay-help

[whole crypt]

yes

[weak moat]

Oh I see then for UR u will have enough

[whole crypt]

once you're done with a banner you just go back to 1 light/day even if the event is still ongoing

[weak moat]

Gotcha so like during event I just max on the event pull

Once u get the unit go back to one per day

Then for UR event they will give just enough

[whole crypt]

even during the event you can "maximize" your pulls and not go straight for pity on day 1

build like 3 a day for the daily event mission and push for pity only when you need to, but you may also need to plan out time to grind coins for the builds

[weak moat]

Right ok

But during event there will be net loss of cubes right

If I’m on the event banner that is

[viscid swift]

most likely yes

[whole crypt]

if you build for the banner yes, which is why we also recommed not going in hard on non-UR events and possibly even rerun URs

[weak moat]

I see

So if I’m starter best is just once a day on event

Until I have like enough cubes then I can try getting the event ship

[whole crypt]

ideally for early game yes

[weak moat]

Then what’s a safe amount of cubes to have

[sweet delta]

All in on an event banner that has a new UR ship

[weak moat]

But will the current event ships will be in another pool after the event is over?

[ivory pawn]

Nope. Gone until rerun in like 2 years ish maybe.

[weak moat]

Oh

[whole crypt]

there's no safe number to get every ship but keeping over 400 to pity new URs will be good

[ivory pawn]

Then they'll be added to permanent in about a year after that.

[weak moat]

Gotcha ok

[sweet delta]

400 cubes guarantees a UR if you have the coins (which is easy). But what if you're unlucky and go 400 cubes per UR event several events in a row?

[weak moat]

Thx

[whole crypt]

game gives enough for new URs each year, the emphasis is new

[weak moat]

I see ok

If I want old URs I need to do the other banners right

[whole crypt]

so if you do get unlucky several new URs in a row it may take longer to stock

reruns you might get lucky with build tickets, after that you'll need to wait for archive and perm pity yes

[weak moat]

Ok

I think I got the gist of it thanks guys 🔥

[whole crypt]

the perm pity counts by cubes spent outside of UR banners so even just the daily light builds will get you there over time

[weak moat]

Ok

[sweet delta]

+non UR rerun tickets give free progress for perma pity

Tldr don't be baited by perma heavy/special for Kronshtadt

[forest palm]

[low juniper]

How good of a ship is Bayard?

[atomic abyss]

One of the best CLs really
Tanky, very good DPS
She's no Plymouth tho

And she's no sandy either

And there in lies the issue, she has no particular niche

Sure good DPS is always welcome, but there's no place where she's particularly wanted over someone else

[low juniper]

I see

Still wanna upgrade her though

Not like I'm lacking in strong ships atm anyway, and I really like her design

I have a couple hundred PR7 BPs I wanted to use on her for D30

[atomic abyss]

I mean, I didn't say you shouldn't

[low juniper]

I can just use the BPs right

[vale spindle]

yea sure

no harm in doing so

[vital meadow]

How often do we get classified file logger in op si?

[atomic abyss]

We don't
They're 1 time use

We haven't gotten any more since opsi was launched as far as I'm aware

I bought some from the shop a couple months ago

[sweet delta]

Check every year

[wind hazel]

logger x9 this year

[blissful hamlet]

Is datamine up now

[atomic abyss]

CN maint has just started

So no

[blissful hamlet]

[atomic abyss]

Come back in 2-3 hours

[little tree]

Sernity spotted in GPH

[ivory pawn]

There was one added like a month or two ago.

[little tree]

~~ mark the bingo sheet~~

[lean token]

Hey there. I've done 400 Event constructions, and I haven't pulled De Zeven yet. In fact, I've only pulled 6 event ships in total (5 Evertsen & 1 Kazan). Has this happened to anyone else?

[atomic abyss]

I'm sure it has, it's definitely not a bug

[ivory pawn]

It's very possible, if very unlucky.

[little tree]

My alt account is on 500 no DP7

[atomic abyss]

Well that's why you don't build on non UR events

[wind hazel]

that's a bit extreme

[lean token]

I've got enough cubes in reserve for the next UR. Just a shame I couldn't get her. Peak waifu material. ;-;

[zenith pebble]

ur event is how many weeks? 3?

[atomic abyss]

3 week if anniversary UR event

2 week like all other major events otherwise

[zenith pebble]

and it should be after cn anni or during?

[wind hazel]

wot

[atomic abyss]

All the major events in late May have coincided with CN anni update

[zenith pebble]

okie thx

[upper venture]

hello im a returning player and i wanna ask when eldridge retrofit item become obtainable?

[digital spade]

probably around august

[upper venture]

owh neat thanks

[digital spade]

august rerun then probably add perma to shop

[upper venture]

the proto shop right?

[digital spade]

yeah for specialized cores

[upper venture]

and anyone know what event we are having after this?

[stark quiver]

Chinese anni 3 weeks out

[blissful hamlet]

None

[viscid swift]

2 weeks alpha

[upper venture]

owh thanks

[viscid swift]

stream is on the 16th so event probably drops on the 22nd

[blissful hamlet]

What's alpha

[upper venture]

16th of this month?

[viscid swift]

yes

[upper venture]

owh oki

[tacit star]

Errr when the anniversary for global ?

[viscid swift]

out anniversery in August

[tacit star]

Oh demn not so far

[viscid swift]

but we all get the same events at the same time

EN Anni is usually a relatively small affair

because the JP Anni is the month after

[upper venture]

thank you again

[tacit star]

Alright thanks alots

[lilac kelp]

If my boss vanguard is getting deepfried in world 14, but consists of Portland, Unzen, and Azuma, what are the chances that I should increase my back line and overall DPS rather than find some way to get a beefier vanguard

[viscid swift]

to be blunt you might need to do both

really though Portland should never have really been on the table, you should have plenty of better options at your disposal at this point

[sharp socket]

a person

[pure tree]

Is Kazan or de zeven good

[viscid swift]

Kazan is a good SR BB, De Zeven is a solid option for W15 but pretty medicore in non plane heavy content

[sharp socket]

theyre decent for golds

[pure tree]

Alr thx

[lilac kelp]

I’m investing in anchorage, once she’s done would she replace Portland?

[viscid swift]

yes

just curious what are you using, gear and everything

[lilac kelp]

Gear is mid overall, I’ve yet to really get into OpSi but we’re starting to work on it

Will I get better raw DPS out of anchorage than Portland, and will it be significant

[viscid swift]

might wanna hold off a bit then on tackling W14

[viscid swift]

no, you're uograding to Anchorage because she's much tankier

[lilac kelp]

So it’s a loss? How much of a loss (in regards to DPS)

[atomic abyss]

No

The tanks aren't meant to be doing DPS to begin with

Even then I'm fairly sure Anchorage does more

Portland's is negligible

[viscid swift]

no, they're broadly the same in terms of damage

[lilac kelp]

Alright, so if I’m gonna get more DPS, would I want to just focus on my backline first?

[atomic abyss]

There's no point worrying about a tank's DPS if they aren't living to begin with after all

[viscid swift]

yeah I don't think you're quite thinking about this right

you're not looking so much for dps as wave clearing

[atomic abyss]

You want staggered damage sources

But yes your understanding is correct otherwise
Backline shd be doing the heavy lifting

Though you have unzen there so that also helps

[lilac kelp]

this is what we’re looking at, are there any intuitions you might have

[viscid swift]

having 3 high damage main fleets will do nothing if they all attack at the same time and 2 of them will have the majority of their damage hit water

[viscid swift]

if that's the best you can do I'd strongly reccomend revaluating whether or not you can actually clear W14

at a baseline everyone should be 120
and Portland and Illustrious shouldn't event be considerations for who to use ehre

[lilac kelp]

Could I consider replacing illustrious with Amagi CV?

[viscid swift]

that would be a substantial upgrade

[weary gust]

If AmagiCV is mlb

[viscid swift]

just start a thread and post your dock at this point

[lilac kelp]

I can get that to happen

[atomic abyss]

For clearing content like w14/15 it's in your best interest to bring well, your best

Waifu be damned

You can do your waifu clears after you've actually cleared it properly

[lilac kelp]

dw bro I’m playing for the love of the game (the game being naval combat not anime girls)

[atomic abyss]

And in your case, since your gear isnt as good, you have less leeway with ships

[eternal moth]

Do we have info on the new augments yet?

[viscid swift]

no

[lilac kelp]

I just saw the boss tag on illustrious in the github tier list and throught she would be fine

[viscid swift]

you need to read the tiering guidelines again

boss tag doesn't mean a ship is good at bossing

it means said ship must be used in a boss fleet and in Illustrious' case utilizing her shield ability to be performing at that tier

[lilac kelp]

Is enterprise and Bismarck Zwei bad then too?

Bismarck is mlb

[viscid swift]

^

[sweet delta]

Illustrious mobs worse than she bosses?

[viscid swift]

they're probably fine

[fallow sedge]

Who should I focus I have 3 unused ur carrier
Fritz amagi cv implacable

[lilac kelp]

will Amagi be fine at 110 or is that underleveled

[viscid swift]

as I said earlier, 120 should be your minimum for W14

as well as +10 gear

[lilac kelp]

What’s the benefit in upgrading gear past 10? How does the damage modifier work?

[sharp socket]

not needed for campaign, but its +18% damage for +13

[soft raft]

It's mainly for OpSi

[viscid swift]

for guns and torps your increasing the hidden damage coefficient

for aircraft you're increasing the damage of bombs, torps, rockets etc directtly

auxes you're increasing the stats they give

[lilac kelp]

Alright, once I get enough gold components from OpSi should I focus on backline gear first? If so should I be doing planes or guns first

[viscid swift]

I wouldn't particulaarly prioritize +13ing gear for campaign

[sharp socket]

+13 stuff when its needed or chasing something difficult

[stark quiver]

what can drop UR aa bp in ops

[wind hazel]

any lens homie

[atomic abyss]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

They didn't remove the gun restriction

[stark quiver]

peak

[wind hazel]

bruh 3.5%

[tidal meteor]

So the buff is not worth the cost of the Augment?

[atomic abyss]

It's just flat out not worth using gangut to begin with

[stark quiver]

the ships themselves arent worth to begin with

i can see balti being alright tho

[tidal meteor]

[atomic abyss]

Balti was never bad to begin with

[sharp socket]

gangut with gangut gun mobber?

[stark quiver]

i ignore 90% of all augments, you should too

[tidal meteor]

https://tenor.com/view/morgan-freeman-true-morgan-freeman-true-nodding-gif-13973817878387504960

[sharp socket]

balti BB buffer now?

[weary gust]

We don't have many BB buffers (in vanguard) so that alone gives her a new niche.

[atomic abyss]

What

Balti was literally the first ship to get armour break you know

[sharp socket]

i thought she buffed CVs

[atomic abyss]

US CV/Ls
In her other skill

She always had the armour break
But it didn't help her outside her own DPS

[sharp socket]

so she buffs both now?

[stark quiver]

idt 3.5% chance is any better

[atomic abyss]

No?

[opaque galleon]

It is guaranteed before your salvos

[lilac kelp]

Should I replace Saratoga with Perseus for my mob fleet

[atomic abyss]

No

Unicorn is already there and better

[lilac kelp]

👍

[wind hazel]

@slow fox baltimore new eHP please
Changes the main gun's ammunition type to special armor-piercing shells Lv.1 (Lv.10). The damage modifier of special armor-piercing shells against armor increases with skill level. Special armor-piercing shells have a 1.0% (3.5%) chance to inflict the Weakness Exposure debuff on hit. Increases incoming artillery damage by 8% for 8 seconds. 15 seconds after battle starts and every 20 seconds thereafter, enters a 3-second stealth state, evading all damage during this time. After stealth ends, fires a powerful special barrage Lv.1 (Lv.10) (power scales with skill level). Enemies hit by the barrage gain the Weakness Exposure debuff.

[sharp socket]

i read it like this too

[atomic abyss]

You know it's just

The usual armour break stuff

That she's always had right?

[sharp socket]

its not different from armor break?

[atomic abyss]

Weakness exposure is armour break as far as I'm aware

[sharp socket]

the TL doesn't have the highlighted red that shows what changes in the skill like the datamine does

[atomic abyss]

In any case it's not going to make her relevant

[atomic abyss]

My bet is Portland tier or less

[wind hazel]

basically now the augment improve it, either you hit with the 3.5% or every 18s and 23s, it will inflict them too

[atomic abyss]

I mean realistically

You might as well use Agir or Guam for the armour break at that point

At least they well, tank

What good is a CV buffer with standard armour break

[opaque galleon]

For kearsarge fleets

[wind hazel]

not everyone have Guam 🧠 and Agir is not 🦅 i can assure you 🦅 lovers love their Baltimore

[sharp socket]

so another aug that isnt that useful

[atomic abyss]

Most augs are inherently that

[sharp socket]

more augs would be useful if there weren't rainbows, unfortunately rainbow spam

[atomic abyss]

Uhuh
So who would you replace then

[stark quiver]

inb4 helena 💀

[atomic abyss]

Budget kears fleets maybe
But uh
Budget and kears do not belong in the same sentence

[stark quiver]

what even is budget kear

[atomic abyss]

And unless I'm misremembering

Balti in a CV comp is incredibly frail to begin with

[sharp socket]

has dev30 kear but no yorkii

so enty +1 and pray the rockets hit

[stark quiver]

id js run 3bb bruh

[viscid swift]

also lets be honest, if you're using a Kearsarge fleet you're most likely gonna be able to use Sirus' accuracy buff and Aurora evasion rate debuff

etc

[stark quiver]

and eld will be tank 🧠

[atomic abyss]

Even then there's other options like Laff2

[viscid swift]

Baltimore was never a consideration for the Kearsarge fleet in the top fleets, this aug doesn't remotely change that

[atomic abyss]

Doesn't Laff2 have the plane dmg increase debuff or sth

[sonic hemlock]

All they needed to do was change it from the gun itself to any NP BB gun...

[viscid swift]

she's got an AA stat debuff

[stark quiver]

also if you have no york2, then you probably wont have hvars, and using 109g in a kear fleet is hot azz, and using all la9 is also pretty bad

[atomic abyss]

Don't get me wrong it helps balti

[normal cedar]

Which one do I craft?
Both seem similar with tiger having slighly higher speed & surface dps & reload but flapjack having slightly better AA

or should I hold on to materials till anniversary, in case they add something new to gear lab?

[forest palm]

XF5U

[fallow sedge]

Which sr Torpedo launcher I should be using

[forest palm]

Quad Magnetic

[forest palm]

if you're worried about obsolescence you can do minimal crafting of the XF5U

Whens the next ur banner 😭😭 i was told to save but until when i need to fuel my gambling addiction

[slow fox]

No eHP stats. Got it.

[forest palm]

signs point to the 22nd

[ebon topaz]

:(

[slow fox]

What's the timing on the increased FP damage? 8s every what seconds?

[molten zinc]

Sure proc at 15s+3 and every 20s+3 after that ig

[blissful hamlet]

What changes for Baltimore

[wind hazel]

still worse than portland, it's joever

[molten zinc]

She got guaranteed AB barrage

[blissful hamlet]

Mid upgrade :god:

[hollow gust]

how does having more CV make her more frail?

[wind hazel]

no EU CV=15% eva

[whole crypt]

balt's looks fairly nice

probably can pick her a bit more for campaign stuff?

[hollow gust]

why use her when there are so many stronger SR ships though

[slow fox]

no EU CV=15% eva

[forest palm]

what's the TLDR of Balt's UE?

[hollow gust]

its just a dps and durability buff

which isnt why you run her

[forest palm]

durability buff?

[whole crypt]

that literally only leaves like sandy on the list of ships to bother using with aug

[slow fox]

-# Probably means eHP buff.

[whole crypt]

obviously the comment isn't saying she's a great choice now

[hollow gust]

All the PR CAs exist and they are more fun

[forest palm]

sounds subjective la

[wind hazel]

not the worst pickup tbh, and frankly probably the best from CA medal option

[forest palm]

this argument can be used with a lot of URs

[slow fox]

Is Eugen a medal CA

[wind hazel]

yeah lol

not many great picks, mainly just for tech

[whole crypt]

if you had full ship access and wanted a better ship then you practically don't even need to think of any of the unique augs besides sandy

[slow fox]

Euyen is obviously the best choice here.

[forest palm]

if I could, I'd make 2 Sandy

[wind hazel]

why stop at 2

make a nation of sandy

[forest palm]

anyway, if you only cherry picked the best ships you may as well make two of them for campaign

[whole crypt]

the point is how much more viable the ship gets with aug if access was limited, or if you wanted more use out of a waifu

[forest palm]

nah clearly you gotta use the best cause everyone has access to everything at once, right?

anyway Balt seems fine to use

[wary robin]

Eh, gangut module not removing gun restriction. Rip hopes and dreams

[forest palm]

expectations for Elite ships is low tbh

[whole crypt]

I don't think we've ever had an elite ship aug that was a significant improvement unless the ship also had a retrofit

[wary robin]

Yeh, but that could make her purple bb version of Luna. And that could be very fun to play

[sweet delta]

Fubuki, Sheffield, Yuubari got massive buffs. Shiranui got an immeasurable buff

[slow fox]

Suchimisinformation smh

[sweet delta]

Baltimore augment +20% to +25% DPS, BCCDDDDB* -> BBBCCDDB*, DPS 2/2/1/1 -> 2/3/2/2, Survival 1 -> 2
Gangut augment good buffs but no changes to tiers or ratings because she was already so low.

[slow fox]

Actually unreadable

[thorn tartan]

there is no ex stage right? i don't see one

[sweet delta]

BBBCCDDB*-1-2x232222xxx

[stark quiver]

no

[sweet delta]

oh wait she buffs kearsarge through armor break now

[thorn tartan]

sorry didn't read the update notes. is this tactical catch-up just 1 week ending today?

[whole crypt]

instabook going for 1 more week

[stable breach]

hi is magdeburg good? I recently got her from a 1 pull

[thorn tartan]

digging deep to find 10 ships to upgrade everyday

[twilit crow]

Have Sandy and hood augment, is Sara augment worth getting

[wind hazel]

not really, but good tech at lv120. that's about it

[wind hazel]

if you use her yes

[twilit crow]

I have like 100 augment modules lying around

[twilit crow]

Ah ok

[thorn tartan]

i finished all the research ships except a couple in the early coin seasons. not sure what to do with myself now

work on a second s7 ur plane?

also, rigging research is resulting in so many excess coins. i feel like i should just be spending coin on anything i can at this point

[stark quiver]

how much excess

[thorn tartan]

i'm up to about 160k coins, but i just finished research ships today.......

[stark quiver]

thats near broke
not even enough to pity UR

[thorn tartan]

i've been breaking the meta ships

[stark quiver]

anything under 600k is fine, dont worry about merchant coins

[thorn tartan]

cost like 15k each ship

maybe 18k not sure

[stark quiver]

just use the coins when ever u need to, no need to keep spending on random stuff
theres both cna UR and wishing well so look out for that

[thorn tartan]

what is cna?

[stark quiver]

cn anni UR

and wishing well is wishing well, choose 2 botes and they get rate up, very pog if youre missing specific perma ships cough aquila cough

[thorn tartan]

i got aquila last event.....

[stark quiver]

i mean me

[thorn tartan]

oh, good luck then!

[stark quiver]

and albion is a good pick too, +2 hit on obtain very pog

so yeh, just save coins, or dont spend on needless stuff, youll need them in time

[thorn tartan]

i just got her to 125. been meaning to see how she does in opsi clearing

[quasi willow]

What happened?

[stark quiver]

dock full?

[quasi willow]

Dock slots?

[tame jungle]

full?

[honest stirrup]

It seems weird though, when the dock is full it's supposed to get the option to retire/enhance/purchase, not that error message

[sweet delta]

dock full

[viscid swift]

could just be desync issue

also a tip, don't use maxed ships to farm easy content like the event

complete overkill and you're wasting XP

[vital estuary]

I was like one mission away from having enough trust for little anchorage before maintenance :p
Will she ever become available again? My poor collectors anxiety... 😔

[stark quiver]

she'll probably have a rerun of her little event

[zinc cave]

Eventually yes but will likely take a while

[vital estuary]

Eh that's ok. Thanks ^^

[hushed dawn]

What's the early verdict on Baltimore's augment? It seems pretty solid, no?

[blissful hamlet]

Is datamine up now

[cobalt rapids]

solid but not solid enough to metafy her

yes its up

[blissful hamlet]

Where datamine

[cobalt rapids]

post here sometime ago

[hushed dawn]

Hold on I can just post RB's translation.

Baltimore – Ace’s Deck (エースのデッキ)
• Base bonuses: Firepower +25–35, Reload +15–20
• Equipment effect (“Special AP Strike · Domain”): during battle, the lead ship of your vanguard fires a Special AP Strike.
• Skill – Final‑AP‑Ride: converts your main‑gun ammo to Special AP Shells (Piercing) Lv 1 (up to Lv 10), increasing damage by skill level.
• Skill Enhance – Final‑AP‑Ride+: all of the above, plus:
– Hits with Special AP Shells have a 1.0% (3.5%) chance to inflict Exposed Weakness (8 s, +8% artillery damage taken).
– At 15 s into battle and every 20 s thereafter, you enter Stealth for 3 s (evading all attacks), then unleash a powerful special barrage Lv 1 (10) that also inflicts Exposed Weakness.

[blissful hamlet]

Datamine is in fact not up

[cobalt rapids]

its in fact up

[stark quiver]

use this

[hushed dawn]

From the translation, it mentioned a buff to artillery shells. That should mean BB shells too right?

[cobalt rapids]

yes its AB

[blissful hamlet]

Nothing changed?

[hushed dawn]

Mmmm.

[atomic abyss]

The standard armour break that she's always had really
It just was never included in the game text

[hushed dawn]

Oh so it's not new but just, stealthed.

[atomic abyss]

Yeeeep

As I did say earlier

She is the first armour break ship in the game iirc

[atomic abyss]

Minneapolis for 1:1

[left cedar]

so balty is the first CA with real debuff and potentially usefull ...

and about gangut ?

[plain saffron]

Looks like new stuff is coming soon

[atomic abyss]

Nopeeeee.
She's always had that armour break and it was never really that good

You have to remember she's a US CV buffer more

Unless you really like her you wouldn't use her

[left cedar]

to be honest, nope, idr ... cuz is to many skills

also, its keep an AB ? ... i did ENed hard there, cuz i think has a new debuff

[cobalt rapids]

its AB still

[atomic abyss]

No you didn't EN hard there

It's just the game never mentioned she had AB before

But she has always had this

Why? I'm fucking boomer enough to remember it

[left cedar]

i see ... so my memori dosnt fail too hard here, just forgot something no mentioned ...

[atomic abyss]

And it was a pretty big thing at the time

[cobalt rapids]

her barrage now also applies it which gives her consistency at least

[atomic abyss]

Cos she was the first ship to have both this special AP shit

And armour break

[left cedar]

and gangut? wut change ... its one of my favorite SN girls

[atomic abyss]

I think it's just better numbers

[left cedar]

dosnt remove her gun lock req ?

its a joke right ? ....

[atomic abyss]

Somehow, they did not

[left cedar]

AL keeps making me dissapointed with game by years ...
ok i'm a dinossaur with bias to old waifus ...

[tame jungle]

what a joke

[plain saffron]

Wait event ended?

[left cedar]

for real Nagami ?

[plain saffron]

I didn't pull anyone yet

[atomic abyss]

Nagami...

[tame jungle]

see you in 2 years

[atomic abyss]

Well not that much was lost

[left cedar]

HAHAHAHA congratulations Nagami, wut a player

[plain saffron]

Rip collection

[atomic abyss]

Only the first actual healer BB

And the 2nd best AA DPS in the game

[plain saffron]

I'll just wait for next UR

[atomic abyss]

Also you know, tulipa tech for the inevitable future we get a tulipa research ship

[white agate]

same here

[left cedar]

cope time

[plain saffron]

I'm fucked if there's tulipa faction tech

[atomic abyss]

Well Kazan is Russia tech anyways

Only evertsen and d7p are tulipa

[left cedar]

to be honest, i do trully think Low Country will never have a tech ... cuz they navy size is ... minimal ... like, trully minimal lower than south americans like Brazil, Argentina and Urugai

[plain saffron]

Just combine them under others

[atomic abyss]

....you say that and yet the newer ships have iris, vichy, sardegna, NP tech

When they previously didn't

Also I need to double check
But I'm fairly sure the Dutch had a bigger surface fleet than the Russians...

[left cedar]

SN aside, others have potentially a gud navy size to have a tech and projects, look at Low Countrys in WW2 perspective even with projects they keep under South Americans

i dont think so, SN have a really large number of small size ships and fews medium size, with ganguts on it ...

[plain saffron]

They have tech, just not used for anything

[left cedar]

Dutchs have like less than 30 watships with projects ...
SN only Soyuz class are like 16 projetcs ...

[atomic abyss]

But none of the Soyuz classes were ever completed
Most of them were barely started even

Anyways

[normal cedar]

is there any budget option to yrktwn2 for EU bb/cv?

[left cedar]

just ganguts are 4 or 5 ships, and bigger Dutch are a CA ...

[atomic abyss]

I'm sure you realised at this point that irl history is just a suggestion to these devs

[crimson glacier]

calling uss eu should give you week ban

[atomic abyss]

Enty is by far the best non UR ship the US has to offer lol

[normal cedar]

I meant buffer for reload and avi/fp lol
enty is dps

[atomic abyss]

Uh frontline or backline buffer

[normal cedar]

anything is fine, not like I have many ships to begin with

[crimson glacier]

buffers are only good if they do good dmg themselves tho

[atomic abyss]

Why are you even asking for a comparison to yk2

We need to understand the goal here

Otherwise I would unironically throw out Baltimore as a recommendation lol

[left cedar]

why i'm thinking he gona ask for fac fleets

[strong tartan]

speaking of baltimore what's changed with her post augment

[normal cedar]

Im running enty franklin boss, maryland colorado mob
If I wanted to do 3 cv/ 3 bb I wanted to know the options..
for mob there is wv option but idk about cv/boss

Im not doing faction fleets its just a coincidence that my high level ships are all uss

[atomic abyss]

Her AB can now be reliably used for BB fleets... For some reason
More dmg
Slightly tankier

[crimson glacier]

3 bb is shit

mob should be 1 bb 2 cv usually

[atomic abyss]

I hope you are aware that 3BB is basically opsi only

[normal cedar]

oh didnt know that

[atomic abyss]

The further you go into this game

The more this thing called "airspace control value" matters

A high enough ACV buffs you

And the requirement for "high enough" increases over time
The opposite happens if you go below that

ACV is mostly made up from the "aviation" stat

So you're essentially rewarded for using more carriers

[strong tartan]

really I thought they'd play more into her cv buffing part

[normal cedar]

ohh I see
thanks I got it

[atomic abyss]

In any case

The best carrier buffer that sits in the frontline is this ship known as Kazagumo

Who is also in the DD medal shop now

The best BB buffer is Plymouth

[crimson glacier]

for enty tho isnt sirius better

[atomic abyss]

...the "budget" form for either is Helena

[strong tartan]

great

[atomic abyss]

I'm not sure if she is torva
But enty isn't the only CV anyways

[crimson glacier]

yeah but arent they using enty

[normal cedar]

I see, thx, im trying to unlock plymouth so ig im on the right path anyways

[atomic abyss]

Old: 85/120/85 with 3.5% chance of 8% armor break for 6s to heavy armor
New: 100/125/100 with 3.5% chance of 8% armor break for 8s

after 15s then every 20s, fire an unaimed laser for 5s with 30 dmg, 125/125/125 armor, 100% FP, 100% coefficient, 8% armor break for 8s

[crimson glacier]

Seems forgettable

[atomic abyss]

(It is)

[eternal basalt]

Not YOUR level, cat dorm level

[whole crypt]

like most unique augs anyway

11.9GBs assets after 1.1GB client update

[sinful escarp]

why is the update so big btw?

[whole crypt]

looks like it's not doing background download either

[stable breach]

is maint. not done yet?

[whole crypt]

it's basically never done this early for EN

[late flame]

ask again 4hours later

[whole crypt]

asset replacements supposedly app size should be going down

but also assets for "new content" which I'd assume is NJ's dorm stuff

[sinful escarp]

ahh i see

[whole crypt]

other misc bug fixes and yostar security stuff

but those should be small

[fleet berry]

Just to be sure, EN's mandatory update in the Play Store is not active yet, right?

[grand solar]

Not as of yet no.

[signal fog]

uuhh, so i need to download whole new client again ?

[grand solar]

Honestly I am seriously wondering if they will ever give us the abilty to retrofit Enty herself.

[whole crypt]

just update in store, the assets download is way bigger anyway

[whole crypt]

we don't know and it really doesn't matter

[signal fog]

it's "install" button in my store instead of "update" i'll check in my phone

[whole crypt]

if it's not update yet then chances the new client isn't live yet for EN

[signal fog]

ok then, will try later, thanks

[grand solar]

I was curious. Is Alabama any good as a BB?

[tame jungle]

she's decent but nothing special really

[fleet berry]

Cheers.

[grand solar]

I am going to take my time leveling Anchorage. Though the way she talks....is a bit off-putting.

[elfin hollow]

Im having an issue where the game keeps asking me for "manual update" but when I click okay, it takes me to the playstore and theres nothing there, any fix for this? its happening on all 3 of my devices

[whole crypt]

there's a client update with this maintenance but the new client is not live on the respective stores yet, check again later

the server's not up yet anyway

[elfin hollow]

do you know when it will be up?

AL hasa bug where if you cancel update download halfway, it will break and will have to reinstall the entire thing again x _ x

[whole crypt]

you don't always run into that bug but yes it can happen, anyway the maintenance is scheduled for 8 hours and there's no announcement of the new client going live yet

also aside of a 1-ish GB client update there's another 10-ish GB asset download so just wait for it

I'm not sure if it's something particularly flimsy with the EN client but I've honestly never had a problem with partial/interrupted downloads on JP

at worst it's an asset repair

[tight yarrow]

Is de zeven any good in campaign map?

[whole crypt]

generally decent CL with very good AA for ch13/15

[tight yarrow]

Hmm, prob a bit early to ask, but how she do in those map compare to like Seatle?

[fleet berry]

By the way, how much is the game size decrease in JP?

[marsh sparrow]

10 gb asset? does it count as 10gb storage

[fleet berry]

AA-wise, D7P should be a massive upgrade from Seattle; D7P is equivalent to Guam personal AA damage. Seattle is like half of hers.

[hollow gust]

Seattle and deZeven do different things , one of is a dps CL and one anti AA

[whole crypt]

no idea still downloading

[fleet berry]

Tankiness-wise, D7P is about Portland-tier and ~10% tankier than Seattle. I'm not sure about D7P damage, though.

[whole crypt]

it'll probably take up the space before the update is complete but this update is supposed to bring file size down

[hollow gust]

DeZeven is closer to shimanto then Seattle

[tight yarrow]

tks guy

[fleet berry]

The last massive update deletes the old files before downloading it, by the way.

[whole crypt]

it's a 11GB download and I just got back home where the connection's actually stable, emulator's actually going to wrap up before my phone does

[whole crypt]

I think it was around 21GBs last I checked

[oblique canyon]

Do I have to uninstall? It doesn't start downloading anything in the playstore

[honest sequoia]

is there a update button option for you?

[late flame]

just wait

[oblique canyon]

Nope just "play" and "uninstall"

[fleet berry]

Hmm, seems like the saving is not that significant.

[honest sequoia]

its avail rn on iOS but not on playstore ig

[whole crypt]

just wait, update probably not live yet on store

[oblique canyon]

Ahh, probably all IOS people then

[plain saffron]

It rewrite older version

[fleet berry]

Even if you got the APK update notification now, you still can't enter the game since the server is under maintenance.

[sand cypress]

But you could Preload the update usually this is possible afte about 4-6 hours into the Maintenance. For such a Big update this might beadvantageous

[whole crypt]

there's no real consistency on preDL

especially not with large patches

[boreal wagon]

especially given that the vendors (google/apple) also add delay to distribution to each individual person

[fleet berry]

As others have said.

[eager mulch]

is there a datamine? asking for a friend (Lars)

[tame jungle]

nice clan tag

[wind hazel]

that's my clan

[fleet berry]

@whole crypt Seems like the latest update introduced some bugs in JP.

[whole crypt]

yes probably from some of the replaced assets

nothing major

[atomic abyss]

I'm gonna get pinged a lot tonight for bugs aren't I

[grand solar]

My file size for AL is like 23gigs of space. Are they going to clean that up and if I change devices, do I need a yostar account or can I use my facebook/twitter account like before?

[normal cedar]

In what scenarios are these type of fighters used?
Given their lack of AA, I assume using AA bombers like Fairey Fulmar with them is a must to compensate?

[tame jungle]

in single target where AA is not an issue
fairey fulmar "AA bomber" is

[wind hazel]

usually in opsi bossing, challenge, meta showdown

[normal cedar]

Opsi bossing/ event bossing then I guess?
Is fairey not an AA bomber lol, all 3 variants have the highest AA values among dive bombers

[plain saffron]

Depends on how lazy the guy doing it is

[tame jungle]

you don't use dive bombers for AA

[normal cedar]

ah I see, so breguet/ wyverns are used then
thanks

[whole crypt]

are you on iOS or android, the new file size for android should be around 19.6G after the update
I'd personally recommend binding with yostar account because facebook is not really reliable and you never know when they'll drop twitter

[grand solar]

I am using an using a Samsung Galaxy Tab S Lite from,like 5 years ago.

[whole crypt]

then probably should be seeing a drop in file size after the update, how much less depends on how well the patch cleans up after itself

[woven star]

seems iOS issues already discussed this is what I came here for... then waiting

[storm marlin]

I'm trying to update the game, but it keeps sending me to the app store. Does anyone else have this issue?

[tame jungle]

mandatory update this time around, have to update the app itself

[plain saffron]

TIL google play have AI on app page

[storm marlin]

I didn’t see the update icon next to it. Might be an issue.

[plain saffron]

The update is not in store yet

[storm marlin]

Ok

[tame jungle]

restart app store maybe, could also be that update isn't pushed out to the store yet too

[whole crypt]

patience...

[forest palm]

was this a 6, or 8 maint?

so another 2 hours of bing chilling

[dreamy blade]

[fossil hull]

Has anyone updated thru the store yet

[tame jungle]

Just Wait

[arctic sail]

Its 8 hrs update

[robust onyx]

Roughly 2 more hours

[eager mulch]

what if I don’t wanna wait

[whole crypt]

it's not like you have a choice

[ebon topaz]

Whats the update abt

[wind hazel]

#game-news

[tame orchid]

Dead week

[celest shoal]

is there anything like a gem-spending priority? something I should use my gems in instead of something else (like more slots for the dorm, tactical classes...)

[polar lion]

/gems

[odd root]

Bridal Z23

Gem Spending 101

Gems in Azur Lane are fairly rare from an F2P perspective. However, the gacha in Azur lane does not require gems and their main usage is expansion of facilities like dorm, academy, docks and depot, as well as buying resources, resource packs, premium items (rings and name change), and skins.

As an F2P, you can get up to 4700 guaranteed gems (3750 for 3* clearing all 15 main campaign worlds, 800 for completing Bands collection and 150 for 8 days login campaign), not counting random gems from commissions or occasional bonuses from events or other sources.

Considering limited availability of gems for F2P players, even if spent exclusively on QoL upgrades, it is impossible to upgrade everything.

This is the recommended way to spend gems as an F2P:

• 3rd Dorm slot (300 gems)
• Dorm 2nd floor (500 gems)
• Dock space (remaining gems)

The main purpose of the dorm is for faster morale regen while grinding. Using ships with 0 morale will receive a 50% exp penalty and lose affinity.

The 2nd floor of the dorm will have the same number of slots as the 1st floor. While it lacks passive exp gain, it has faster morale regen. 3 dorm slots with the 2nd floor gives you a total of 6 slots, which is enough for your whole mob fleet.

Dock space is the biggest constraint for players. While this can help casual players collect all their waifus, there is also practical use in collecting ships - for later levelling to get their fleet tech on reaching lvl 120. These are important for players as they provide crucial additional stats that help players to tackle the hardest content (W14/15, H.Arbiters, CM).

Alternatively, players may consider getting the 3rd Academy slot for faster skill training or more dorm slots instead of just dock space (not recommended).

While players may opt to buy skins/rings with the F2P gems, this will come at the cost of QoL. It is recommended to only buy those with real money 💳.

[little tree]

Dead week means i van focus on exp for bird and dragon

[whole crypt]

I can finally let my oil rest after the final tech rush

[normal cedar]

I dont really understand the need for more dorm slots, I run out of oil before moral hits 0, and thats on oil capped stages like 12-1 even.

Not to mention, hypothetically, even if I dont run out of oil then I can just change fleets and continue...

Can someone please explain the reason behind multiple dorm slots?

[whole crypt]

to keep morale over 120 for XP bonus

you will indeed run out of oil faster than you burn out your morale eventually if you grind hard enough

[honest sequoia]

is JP server done?
how is there a JP AL youtuber streaming AL rn

[forest palm]

well you answered your own question

[whole crypt]

JP was done like 2-ish hours ago

[keen comet]

Guys, are these planes good to put in Essex and Shangri-la?

[forest palm]

no

[whole crypt]

not worth spending cores on

[normal cedar]

I see, thanks!

[honest sequoia]

that f4u is core data trap

[forest palm]

both the Corsair and Douglas are useless

[honest sequoia]

well a certain AL content creator convinced its audience to buy it

[keen comet]

Do you have any recommendations for other types of planes than this?

[whole crypt]

gold corsair is not bad but it's just no longer worth the cores and investment in this day and age

[forest palm]

Hellcat, Tigercat, XF5U

[little tree]

Pancake

[whole crypt]

purple corsairs are the best value nowadays until you can craft them into flapjacks

[keen comet]

pancake here is referred to flapjack

cuz it flat

you look at planes?

yes especially their butt

[forest palm]

I've been to the Dellas Texas museum

[crimson marsh]

i am still unable to update my game, is this normal or?

[wind hazel]

normal

[crimson marsh]

oke thank you

[unkempt granite]

hi, would like to know where to download the update, as it shows on my phone that, "Update inform", "a new update which must be manually downloaded has been detected", and i pressed confirm, it brought me to the play store, but there was nothing to update or to click, apppreciate for any help, thanks

[tame jungle]

just wait

[sinful escarp]

the game is still not up, MT is still roughly 1 more hour until completed

[unkempt granite]

ooh :0 i actually just downloaded it today and wanted to try out the game, didnt notice its in MT hh, thanks for answering!

[eternal basalt]

Wow, downloaded the whole game just to do it AGAIN later today

[blissful hamlet]

Kid named where's the update

[robust onyx]

In another hour

[eternal basalt]

No, then maint is over, unknown for appstore

[eager mulch]

gurt: yo

[blissful hamlet]

30 hours maint

[robust onyx]

It should be available in the app store after maintenance

[eternal basalt]

Maybe it will, maybe it wont

[blissful hamlet]

I hope it get extended so people will overcap

[hushed sorrel]

sometimes the maintence just need lots of hours

[sinful escarp]

if that happens i hope we get apologems

[robust onyx]

They are already giving us 200 gems so I doubt it

[whole crypt]

client updates usually come with 200 gems, even if they extent maint don't expect gems unless it's a very severe extension

[wispy geyser]

What????? I have too slow internet there aren chances that i download all within minutes

[slate blade]

They already announced that they'll give gems

[wispy geyser]

I need min one HOUR

[slate blade]

[sinful escarp]

yeah, but i want moar

[whole crypt]

don't worry, the 1G store update is the fast part

[wispy geyser]

And over 10 gb in game after if you dont know that

[whole crypt]

yes I do, which is why I said the store update is the fast part

[loud scarab]

the store page doesn't show the update is it still too soon?

[normal cedar]

too soon, try after half an hour

[weak moat]

HHAHAHA

[polar lion]

How beeg is the update?

[eternal basalt]

Apple or playstore? I hear 3 GB + 15GB ingame

[polar lion]

Playstore but y so beeg? It's not ded week?

[eternal basalt]

It's to prepare for CN anni

[green moss]

Good thing I have an SD card

[boreal wagon]

they also changed a bunch of formats in an attempt to reduce the final size, meaning the 15 GB isnt actually on top of what you already have but rather some of it replaces the old

[whole crypt]

damn game's PvP bugging up it just goes into load loop

ok a different opponent worked... probably another one of those specific asset fubar things

[eternal basalt]

How are you ingame?

[whole crypt]

JP

day change in 7 min

JP has this awkward issue of short turnaround between maint ending and day change

[blissful hamlet]

Good day everyone where is my update

[wind hazel]

EOS

[eternal basalt]

Not here.. #game-news

[tame jungle]

+1 hr

[blissful hamlet]

Kid named extended maint

When everyone overcap, I can eos

[whole crypt]

who knows maybe they're trying to sort out the buggy bits on CN/JP before they roll full patch on EN

[little tree]

You get distracted too much looking at skins to eos

[ebon topaz]

Having a bug after 8 hours 😭

[eternal basalt]

"a bug"

[little tree]

"A small bug"

[eternal basalt]

"like no executable, just tiny bug"

[tranquil dagger]

should i ever spend gems on dorm slots as a f2p

[tame jungle]

yes

ideally 3 slots, 2 floors (which means a total of 6 slots so a full fleet)

the rest goes into dockspace

[tranquil dagger]

Gotcha

How much is the 2nd floor?

[tame jungle]

not sure (it's been too long) but one thing to note is that it doesn't matter if you get 2nd floor or 3rd slot first

just looked it up, it should be 500 gems

3rd slot is 300

[gaunt cedar]

so yesterday i got to w8-1 on main story but i need commander level 60 and im only 51, should i grind 7-4 or level up second fleet

[whole crypt]

grind 7-4, don't bother with second fleet until ch9

[gaunt cedar]

okay got it

[whole crypt]

alternatively explore grinding up archives since we have basically 2 dead weeks now before event starts

[gaunt cedar]

which one should i do? ive heard chapayev is good

[whole crypt]

if you have enough levels to deal with polaris SP5 or perhaps D maps for chessboard the oil cap will make grinding ship and commander XP much more efficient than at ch7

usually the recommendations are polaris SP5 or chessboard for KMS drops

but hard mode maps have entry reqs which you may have trouble meeting at this point even if you can actually defeat the stages otherwise

[wind hazel]

playstore update is live

[whole crypt]

so it tends to go back to polaris

[gaunt cedar]

ok thanks

[tranquil dagger]

Ty

[honest stirrup]

I'm going to strangle that kid

[fiery swan]

Does anyone now know what Balty aug does

[wind hazel]

her armour break is more consistent now

she also get 3s invulnerability every now and then which is nice for her

[whole crypt]

if you want to use her it's a pretty nifty upgrade, but she's still far from the end

[fiery swan]

Can she tank now

[wind hazel]

no

[clear harbor]

How good are Hood and Richelieu? I was lucky enough to pull them a few days ago.

[honest stirrup]

Richelieu is quite usable

[stone sluice]

Why update being that big?

[honest stirrup]

Players have complained about the game being too large, so they deleted a lot of files to replace them with a lighter version

[boreal wagon]

because they reoptimized a bunch of assets in an attempt to reduce the final size (it is not 15 GB on top it replaces old stuff)

[eternal basalt]

Small size + CN anni preparations

[zenith heron]

both are solid ships

Hood is a usable mob ship due to her simple Attack with a Barrage Followup, but somewhat needs her Augment for amp up damage, especially against Light Enemies and 100% Barrage proc rather than 70% proc, which is without the Augment

[normal cedar]

should I begin saving gold bulins for cta? since the shop UR tokens may be locked behind missions as well involving cta ships...

[honest stirrup]

what's... cta?

[normal cedar]

call to arms

[eternal basalt]

3 weeks of event, no need

[normal cedar]

ok, thanks!

[honest stirrup]

I'm going to check something.

[normal cedar]

this was last years... so I asked

[honest stirrup]

Yeah ok forgot about that my bad

[whole crypt]

it actually just needs the ship in your boss fleet but doesn't need to be MLB and doesn't need to survive the fight

[normal cedar]

ohh I see, thats easier then

[wind hazel]

you should still save some bullins

good practice is to always have extra 4 bulins

[zenith heron]

Richelieu oth, also a Solid Ship

Has a preload to fire early, with the expense of firing only 1 extra Shell per cooldown on MLB due to being a French Ship (Excluding Alsace and Flandre), and also deals Burning Damage to enemies...

[weak dust]

my game has been updating for half an hour over wifi and is still not done... normal?
my wifi is decent too

[honest stirrup]

12GB is fairly huge, but yeah overall it's normal

I have like 5% of the update done after 20 mins

[boreal wagon]

also be aware that a lot of people are trying to download at once so that slows things down as well

[clear harbor]

yeah, 12 GB of files, yeeesh.

[wind hazel]

sorry i will turn off my chinese farm bots

[eternal basalt]

Event is 22nd, time enough for bulin

[clear harbor]

Hopefully this update will complete in time for me to do my dailys!

[sturdy badger]

Ayo, me can't update. It did not show them updato button

[clear harbor]

Ooof. So in order to cut size, we have to redownload a slimmer but still sizable package. Hopefully this makes things better overall.

[zenith heron]

if you are on Android, it might be late than the other platforms

[sturdy badger]

Wait2, what happened?

[eternal basalt]

Google playstore got the update

[zenith heron]

probably need to reload I guess

[eternal basalt]

Shit update speed though

[sturdy badger]

I checked mine. Nothing there. I even restart my phone just in case, still, no update

[weak dust]

bru it goes as slow as 7kb/s

[eternal moth]

MIne updated almost instantly

[sturdy badger]

oh

it's now there. FINALLY

[boreal wagon]

it can take a bit for you to also see it because of how google and apple distribute updates

[sturdy badger]

Doro can finally see them ship boooty

https://tenor.com/view/doro-dorothy-nikke-gif-17474162848336516519

[weak dust]

i finally see a singular pixel of blue bar at the bottom woohooooo

[eternal moth]

Are you on wifi?

[weak dust]

ya

[honest sequoia]

am i cooked

[jaunty vault]

thats not bad

[humble flicker]

After updating the game those 10gb of space are from your free space or the game will delete his assets and download again?

[whole crypt]

that's faster than my phone did when I was on the train

[eternal basalt]

No, it's kb/s I get

[cobalt rapids]

no but i am

[jaunty vault]

wtf

[honest sequoia]

[weary gust]

Just wait, yours will slow down once you reach the bottleneck everyone else is at.

[weak dust]

HA i got the smallest number

[inner delta]

[jaunty vault]

no way its yuki in the flesh

[eternal moth]

It's an optimization of the game, you should have more space after this is complete.

[jaunty vault]

hello yuki, how far is your download progressing

[robust jasper]

How do I speed up my download?

[inner delta]

you wait

[jaunty vault]

get better internet

[blissful hamlet]

Use boiler

[zenith heron]

jesus that's fast, way faster if its 2 digits on MB

[normal cedar]

is 600 kbps speed normal? my wifi is faster but the game seems to limit it...

[weak dust]

instructions unclear, pc shut off after pouring boiling water on it

[cobalt rapids]

the speed you see is normal for you

[eternal basalt]

Be at Yostar HQ

[jaunty vault]

too many people downloading might be overloading servers a bit

[whole crypt]

speed depends on a couple of things besides your own internet speed

[zenith heron]

just use a better storage, trust

[little tree]

When will they fix it reee

[cobalt rapids]

when every1 is done downloading

[whole crypt]

I did say store update is going to be the fast part

[little tree]

I still don't see the update on the play store does anyone

[robust jasper]

Lol

[normal cedar]

if I abort in between and come back tomorrow, will it continue or restart?

[cobalt rapids]

continue

[jaunty vault]

1.05 GB vs 15 GB

[normal cedar]

ok, thx!

[whole crypt]

it should keep any files that have been fully completed

[urban grail]

is it not up yet

[eternal basalt]

20 mb/s vs 200kb/s

[weak dust]

lets goooo its fast again

[jaunty vault]

no

[clear harbor]

I'm stuck at ~100 kb/s 😩

[cobalt rapids]

its more that the server dieded coop

[zenith heron]

its like saying that playing on a Computer shop and your CPU, RAM, GPU, and Internet is fine, only to know that your Computer Shop's Server Storage is limited by 10 MB to rather not crash the server itself if a lot of people are connected

[weak dust]

nvm its back at ~200kb/s

[clear harbor]

Flew too close to the sun.

[jaunty vault]

i know that

[weak dust]

bru its slower than before

[eternal moth]

I assume this will speed up once people actually finish the update, so if you're impatient, I'd recommend holding off on the update and just doing it later.

[inner delta]

you dont need to keep updating your download speed

[loud scarab]

i hope i can update in time for the next update

[weak dust]

lol ok

[cobalt gate]

is the update 12.4 gb?

how is this bigger than genshin

[eternal moth]

You're essentially re-downloading the whole game; this is an optimization update\

[cobalt gate]

ahh

[turbid marsh]

i think its re-downloading the game for optimization

[blissful hamlet]

Yo wtf is this 12gb update

Truly unhinged

[eternal moth]

Try reading what was just posted in this channel.

[jaunty vault]

serenity moment

[weak dust]

and its going slower bc everyone is downloading at the same time

[hollow gust]

wait we can fill his stupid serenity bingo

[soft raft]

#al-general is that way if you want to do that btw

[wary timber]

lmao my download speed is jumping all over the place. its actually funny

[jaunty vault]

ok game is up

[eternal basalt]

We ain't up

[jaunty vault]

skill issue

[blissful hamlet]

How do I make it download in background? I remember doing it before

[wary timber]

good luck with the download. its bound to take hours

[whole crypt]

it can't background download after this patch apparently

[normal cedar]

If I don't log in today, will I miss the monthly login?

[jaunty vault]

bg download didnt work most of the time anyways

[zenith heron]

depending on your timezone

[whole crypt]

it did for me for the past year or so

[jaunty vault]

yes

[wary timber]

54KB/S kek

[blissful hamlet]

They truly have no idea what they're doing

[jaunty vault]

but you got like 15 hours

[normal cedar]

well today as in before next daily reset, my question was does it get skipped or do I instead lag in the rewards by one day

[eternal basalt]

Background dl works for me, still Chinese though

[normal cedar]

oh damn, I see
I might miss it then

[clear harbor]

I played a game that overhauled their engine, requiring a big download, but they forgot to set the game to not go to sleep. So players had to poke their phones while updating.

[little tree]

[zenith heron]

lag, you never skip a day, you just lack a reward per month

[normal cedar]

ah, that's nice then Ill just miss out on 2k coins ig

[jaunty vault]

CN gaming

[wary timber]

ive been stuck at 1.4GB for the past 15 minutes

[jaunty vault]

favourite child treatment be like

[eternal basalt]

They said in #bug-reports that the message there depends on language of operating system, but I don't run a Chinese phone so...

[serene moth]

Mine is stuck at 100% for like 10 min

[arctic sail]

Wtf still not working

[little tree]

Do we have info on Baltimore new augment

[arctic sail]

Above 9 hrs

[jaunty vault]

oh lol

[jaunty vault]

we do

[little tree]

Link please

[cobalt rapids]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/一张王牌

[little tree]

Thanks

[little tree]

This looks decent

[hollow gust]

Its meh

[versed elk]

is anyone else experiencing very slow download speeds

[jaunty vault]

everyone

[versed elk]

mine is fast for the first few files and everything is super slow after like kb type of slow

[wind hazel]

normal

[jaunty vault]

it fluctuates

[whole crypt]

Baltimore's aug is good it's just she's is still nowhere near the top after it

[eternal basalt]

We're crashing Yostar''s servers, expect slow speed

[normal cedar]

does this happen everytime they update the main client lol

[cobalt rapids]

its decent improvement yea

[versed elk]

i guess i will miss my set of 5 exercises

[whole crypt]

credit where it's due it's far from a meh aug

[zenith heron]

May I know if we are still able to use Facebook as Login, or is it going to be full Yostar New Login for now?

[jaunty vault]

does it make her good

[whole crypt]

it does but for some people she's still not good enough

[jaunty vault]

im some people

[eternal basalt]

Usually google doesn't stick till end time and gets released 5h early

[humble flicker]

Someone already in?

[wary timber]

they done skill issued the server so our downloads are slow

[weak dust]

when i get my first wyvern soon who do i put it on first

[humble flicker]

How much space the game takes now?

[primal charm]

uhh so the patch notes looked rather small, why is it a 12GB update ??

[cobalt gate]

hmm google play store i'm still pending can't download for some reaswon

[whole crypt]

replacing assets

[zenith heron]

your Mob CV/CVL

[cobalt rapids]

the strongest tb slot in the fleet ure using in campaign

[whole crypt]

and probably some new dorm assets too

[weak dust]

uni, indep, or enty

[eternal basalt]

Small size + CN anni preparations
]

[glossy granite]

Assets for what 😭

[primal charm]

[glossy granite]

Now i understand why everyone just wants PC or plays on emulator instead of phone

[wind hazel]

for Hammann

[whole crypt]

I don't see how a PC client helps this

[glossy granite]

8mb per second am i cooked

[weak dust]

thats fast

[eternal basalt]

Like Bluestacks users don't got this too

[cobalt rapids]

just wait for the drop

[zenith heron]

i'd go for Uni if MLB, could also be used on Enty if you want

[glossy granite]

Storage cooked

[wary timber]

personally i put wyverns on any CV or CVL if u dont have AVP, Ark Royal or Implac in that fleet. if u do have either of them then use a converging torp bomber instead

[whole crypt]

this update literally makes the game smaller

not by much but it does

[glossy granite]

Then i am the idiot one

[whole crypt]

storage aside most of the things people keep asking for on a PC client likely won't happen even if the game did get a PC client

[glossy granite]

I am completely oblivious on this update so yea

[wary timber]

they already have Crosswave on PC

[whole crypt]

even past updates no matter how large the update was the end size was usually only a bit bigger

[wary timber]

different game but eh

[ebon topaz]

Azur lane aint updating 😭 its stuck at 75%

[cobalt rapids]

patience is a virtue

[wary timber]

oh i get that for some games. i jus exit and then restart it and iitll just keep going after

[glossy granite]

Ok now why tf is my game updating between 800kb and 9MB a sec warra internet connection

[ebon topaz]

:(

Whats a warra

[little tree]

At least we got our + 10 docks space for this headache

[whole crypt]

because connection/routing to game server not stable?

[eternal basalt]

A server side clog?

[whole crypt]

and yes everyone is updating now, servers probably overloaded

[cobalt rapids]

u prob caught up to the most request file from the server

[wary timber]

anyways its the game server thats being lagged now cuz EVERYONES updating lol

[glossy granite]

What a/an*

Yea now its stable 10Mb

[ebon topaz]

Bro wdym

[whole crypt]

also areas where it's a lot of small files tend to go slower

[glossy granite]

''What an internet connection'' Just broken english

[ebon topaz]

Buddy i literally said what’s ( what is ) not what

[glossy granite]

Im not ok at all

[wary timber]

16kb/s lmao

[glossy granite]

113Kb same here 😭

[wary timber]

then it drops to 5. and to 1 lmao

[ebon topaz]

My game aint even installing 😭

Nvm just did

[wary timber]

crash the server !

[sweet delta]

Gameplay help 😭

[little tree]

Sushi save us

[glossy granite]

Samheart shall save us 🙏

[little tree]

~~ I think mebot would before sam~~

[atomic abyss]

Yes it's already crashing who would have guessed

[eternal basalt]

Speed got fixed?

[gaunt cedar]

at least they might give gems

[stone sluice]

So the speed things it was not only me

[eternal basalt]

Keeps going between 7mb and 200 kb/s

[boreal wagon]

it will keep fluctuating there is basically 0 reason to keep updating this channel about it, this is just how congestion works

[verbal rose]

Baltimore module good?

[weak nova]

200 kb/s ?? best I can do is 10kb/s

[whole crypt]

yes

[atomic abyss]

Do consider EVERYONE is redownloading the game at the same time

[rose flicker]

i thought my wifi cooked when i saw 23kb/s

luckily its not a me only problem

[atomic abyss]

Good buff but does little to make her relevant

[verbal rose]

[atomic abyss]

15% more survivability is lol

[sweet delta]

She'll be relevant when new EU UR CV who works with Yorkii releases

[atomic abyss]

She won't

[sweet delta]

Will

[atomic abyss]

Aurora and Sirius getting replaced?

[sweet delta]

Her competition would be Sirius yes

[atomic abyss]

To be more specific, one that actually freezes

Which is a fat chance lol

[sweet delta]

or just has 0 TBs

in rocket eldridge we trust

[atomic abyss]

Uhuh
So if you put eld and aurora

And balti is there
Where's Z52 or Plymouth?

I do concede she'll be good if you lack better options but uh

In what world is a kears comp a budget option lol

[sweet delta]

balti would match or exceed ply if given 2 UR EU CVs vs Ply's kearsarge

[atomic abyss]

Adding all those conditions together makes it seem like a huge stretch

I'll believe it when it happens

[modest fractal]

what is this update? so big °_°

[normal cedar]

was anyone able to download the entire thing? does it speedup after a certain point?

[atomic abyss]

Because it's redownloading the entire game in order to make it smaller

[little tree]

What did they shrink ???

[honest sequoia]

My sister

[real laurel]

Fellas, is it bluestacks that's fucked or is it just that many people downloading the game currently. The download is extremely slow

[hushed sorrel]

both

[turbid marsh]

i think you should phrase it as FELLAS, PLEASE STOP DOWNLOADING THE GAME AND LET ME DOWNLOAD FIRST

[real laurel]

I'm sitting at around 200 KB/s average, Good Lord I might play in a few days

[atomic abyss]

If it's late, just go and sleep and try again in the morning

Everyone is trying to download it now

[real laurel]

😭

[compact helm]

dang 😭

[normal cedar]

where is the en server physically located? NA? SG?

[atomic abyss]

US

[hushed sorrel]

please change location to al-general. there are also only talking about that right now. there is no help for you guys and me xD

[atomic abyss]

A believe in San Fran

[normal cedar]

I see, thx

[atomic abyss]

It's definitely west coast

[nova hawk]

Chat why is my download so slow

20kb/s is sad

[boreal wagon]

because everyone is downloading at once

[turbid marsh]

look up in the conversation, should have some answers

[hushed sorrel]

just tell him its cause your phone is defect. lurker you need a new one (this is a joce)

[nova hawk]

Joce

[hushed sorrel]

yeah see you are also funny. of course its a joke

[atomic abyss]

Joke elsewhere pls

[ruby grotto]

is any1 experiencing download speed issue? Huge update (12GB) and i'm downloading at like 100kb/s for some reason

[cobalt rapids]

every1

[ruby grotto]

oh ok thanks

[cobalt gate]

i'm stuck on this what should i do

[gaunt cedar]

consider uninstalling

[forest palm]

[dark axle]

Anyone know what is the additional 13gb update?? My game size is only 7.49gb before update. it became 20.37 gb after update. How can I lower the game size??

[clear harbor]

I'm at 12.1 / 12.4 GB, but ~9 of that downloaded in the last hour after maybe 1-2 hours to get to 2-3 GB

[eternal basalt]

It was more than 21 before

[normal cedar]

hmm I see
thanks, ig ill do it later

[dark axle]

Don't download the 3d dorm and secret

It worked just reinstall

[eternal basalt]

What worked? Reinstall doesn't make it dl faster or the dl smaller
