I dont think it matters in this comp
oh yeah the revised comp does significantly better, didnt realize rumey was this good
Who is better to bulin lion or shinano?
went from doing about 35% of gneisenau's bar per salvo to about 44%
lion
shinano can wait for perma pity if u are low on UR bulins
Gotcha thanks š Iām about to get my 4th ur bulin from the medal exchange š
so in terms of gearing priority, should i just take an inventory of all my owned gears and then categorize my highest priority ships to gear first?
or rather, make synergistic fleets with a couple presets depending on armor type and then equip as necessary
non priority ships get whatever is left, like the 40 something hazemeyers i own
gear your ships that u are using
farming fleet
opsi fleet(s) if u use more than 1
pvp if u pvp
pvp is annoying because i use soyuz there so i have to swap back and forth but oh well
yeah that is why I used NJ until I finished my 25k on hornet
U can use loadouts to make it less painful
My PvP fleet is also good for pve
for bossing its implac/cvmagi/shinano and soyuz/nakhimov/and i think musashi for opsi
just gear these fleets first then
4th fleet is barrage and first fleet is mob fleet with triple preload cv and preload torp frontline for fast clears
in reality soyuz nakhimov fritz probably clears everything
Regear your fleet to one fleet harbiter
And then use your PvP fleet for everything else, mobbing, abyssal, strongholds, etc

no sustain in my pvp fleet altho opsi probably isnt hard enough at my level to threaten survivability outside of harbiter
gear swap so annoying, game should just give me 50 la9s and 50 skyraiders and 50 tenrai and call it a day 
If itās well built, you can make do with just those med kits
if your triple CV mob works fine I wouldnt change it tbh
u probably have enough planes to go around
3 la 9s isn't bad :0
my free trial skins expired sadge
cant spam click lion booba
ive been considering just straight up scrapping some of the useless gear on ships i know ill never use
I guess since we're talking about gear, after third LA9, is there any pr series I should revisit?
like all the +10 barracudas
Throw useless gear on random ships
Random ships acts as storage for gear
Pr7
Just pr7 š so 4 la9s
Or 5 if you feel like it
i could probably have 4 or 5 by now but i just spam the C projects because i cant be assed to care enough
What a waste of time
i probably should change that
i almost exclusively run this game in the background anyways
while i play other things like expd 33
only times i interact with the game are to click l2d booba skins and redo stage clears to farm

Understandable
why did that emote take so long to send holy shit
Discord spaghetti
not really especially with PR8 dropping in less than 2 months probably
Yeahhh hopefully it doesn't have gear focus so that I can just return to pr7
finally UR sub torp 
mk20 v2 better bidder when
gives trp rld and hit stat 
There is a ur sub torp
oh yeah type 95 kai i forgor
just continue to forget about it
could I be pointed in the direction of the equipment recommendation chart?
bc I'm 100 over my depot's maximum

thank you!
equip unused gear on unused ships
dismantle the gray ones
for other unused gear, do what sushi said because equipped gear dont take up storage
will do!
where is best place to farm gem comms
12-4
ive got 4700 prototype cores, what should i buy
alr have every ship max dev 30 and/or fs5
if you're settled on gear just sit on it
Go do a neighbor's chores for a quick buck in that time and use the money to whale

Much more efficient and reliable than 12-4 
or just get a job and when your parents ask you why you still have no money you can tell them you spent it all on busty anime girls
BBs are the best backliners for light armor bossing right?
or would it be mixed comp with HE guns and hvar hellcats
This
it sounds like triple cv and triple bb comps arent meta anymore?
triple bb especially
It's less that, and more that these BBs unlock the potential for CVs
Triple BBs have never been relevant for best AL players in a long time
At least, outside of specific niches
historically accurate 
air power > battleships
on the up end it doesn't really matter
How good is the event gun?
its ok yamato will make triple bb relevant again with a no conditions double FP stat buff and 200% crit damage buff 
very
bis against light armor
I.e
Kears is the ARA proc for Yk2, freeing up a frontline slot that would have otherwise been Kazagumo or Stephen
Soyuz is the proc for Nakhi's freeze
Sub meta when
How good is trafalgar
is taihou good or no
It would bring in the 2 BB 1 CV era 
where can i use tai yaun
Good but there's many better options, even amongst non URs
she's okay
looking pretty good
S tier waifu C tier meta pick
... everywhere tbh
Except w15 probably
Does anyone have a walkthrough for Project Identity?
Somewhere in #1204845559790440488
do we have optimal gearing get for trafalgar?
Same as z52
cool
idk if i want the lion or taihou skin
We don't know either
both
Maybe ask in #al-general when it comes to waifu picks
Can she replace Noshiro in my opsi mob fleet
Or skin recommendations
Really easily
trafalgar is gun focused right?
Not a direct replacement, but there's many replacement for nosh as a trp nuker
Barrage focused
im poor, i can only get one and my level is prob not enough to keep grinding for gems
ill just run fp stat aux with toolkit
actually intel report is fine, get it out of my inventory
what are the full costs to +13 a Ur gun
good lord
most of us don't bother with project identity
Yes, has general advice on what to do. Nothing that says "here is what to do on a week by week basis to complete the different endings"
Why does trafalgar have torp spread reduction 
it's just meeting the different stat requirements, not that difficult
also to be frank, such a guide would be really long considering the amount of endings and such
^
And thats why every discussion board which touches on Project Identity has people asking for a proper walkthoguh
Because it is a COLLOSAL pain to do and most people dont want to have to do it repeatedly cause they missed an ending by 1 point
too op if is half aoa
It turns out most AL players aren't galge players
Hence why people have made massive comprehensive guides to hundred hour games plike Persona 5
Her spam barrage is far weaker then z52 
Unfortunately nothing much we can do if no one makes a guide
yeah
All we have is what's pinned there
its mostly dummy proof anyway
find someone that cares enough about TB/navi and they will make a guide for it, that no one has done so is another thing of its own
TB is completely optional and in a game where good guides are already rather wanting and scarce
i would say its indicative that not many care about that mode but its too early for hot takes 
asking someone to write a long guide for a mode that is completely optional and I daressay a good chunk of the playerbase doesn't even touch....
is a bit much
I get that it's a bit of a pain but it's not that difficult either
cuz z52's rdps is lower?
Yes but everything else about z52 is kinda crazy
is there a level requirement for each world?
commander level yes
from World 8 it's every 5 CMD Lvs up to as of right now Lv 95 for the final world
as for ship lvl, generally at the same lvl as the enmies
and later in like W14+, 125 is required
Does lower Rdps matter when she can run as a tank and allow for another support ship
what are the best preload torp vanguards? im assuming it would be unzen/shima/and either ibuki or jintsuu meta
Ibuki has the best initial damage , unzen has most damage , jinstuu has one of the best amps
if don't then manjuu can just give her 15% or higher buff than 5% perturn, i mean, devs love ib so z52 has everything but to royal they decide do some balancing
Which ships should I focus on leveling for world 13+?
What's Rdps?
raw dps iirc
Ahhh. Thank you lol
"raid contributing DPS"
real damage per second
Ender got it right
rounded dps
this good?
It's essentially how much DPS your buffs provide
Very bad lol
Does lion burn count into her end screen damage?
Burn has never counted for endscreen damage
Cause I don't think it's treated like traditional burn
Based on your previous hornet meta one shots
We calculated like 100k unaccounted for
So that's about 100k in burns lol
No burn had absolute hit rate and guranteed hit 
I'm not even sure fire extinguisher works on that monstrosity
Can I use the Lion gun on Vanguard
what does shimanto do? seems to be an aa/sustain ship that can extinguish burn and inflict flooding
AA carry with quality of life features like decent damage and damage reduction
cuz for some reason i have a +13 plymouth gun on her and im thinking about swapping her off
is she relevant in w15?
She is meta
nvm im leaving plymouth gun on her
Why? Her thing isn't dps
Well it depends on who you're using to begin with
If Shimanto is the only thing there using CL guns
Are meta ships just upgraded forms of the originals ?
Lol no
no
Lore wise you can ask in #al-lore
gameplay wise, lol not always
Sometimes worse, sometimes better
every bit counts for clearing w15
What are they
sometimes a sidegrade
^
i just have 15-4 left, once im done im swapping it off
barely any of the META ships see any legit mainline usage outside of their tech (if it's good)
just think of them as unique ships
and be glad they no longer take up your valueable dockspace
no point really comparing them to the original
remembering the times when i used to run ark royal meta in a carrier bossing fleet
Alright so I donāt really need to worry about them
Which was never

why we bringing trash gifs in this channel...

na it was like peak 2021 cv fleets cause you would shinano mark ark but then haku came out the same year and invalidated it
Ark basically died with the release of August 
No cause before fate sim August was 75% which fucked you up when it didn't proc
agir fate sim when btw
probably this year if i had to guess

-# Samisinformation
probably next year at the earliest
they seem to release DR Fate Sims with the usual PR updates in late January early February these days
100k burns is insane
whats lions loadout? standard loadout im assuming
swap guns based on enemy armor, belfast gun as secondaries, cat ears/staag/hazemeyer aa, and table/hpfcr with white shell or rn shell or black shell mix and match?
How long of a gap do ya'll think we'll have until bis2 rerun? 2 week?
Anything worth to buy in here?
new player?
we dont know, can be before or after summer
burned enemies will receive more dmg right?
what's the final evaluation of trafalgar? is she z52 killer or is she mid?
N-no... I am already lv 80 and I bought enough shells
they just recieve passive damage
oh
then youre going to be looking at niche equips, or just save it
how many pairs of shells have you got
2 pairs of each shell
for both boss and mob fleets' BBs
could get yourself a Breguet then and save up for another White Shell next month
Although because I equipped Pennant for Nelson, the other shell goes for Arizona as for now
Breguet?
why are you using arizona when you have nelson and kazan
Arizona is just for hardmode BB-softlock requirement
but nelson is a BB?
yes? But some levels require 3 BBs
you could just leave that slot empty
I pulled these, just that I dont have the resources so I'm benching them, I'm still pulling for Lion
hm fair enough
Who would be next to MLB?
you got 4 UR Bullins? and how many HVARs
if you're lacking in CVs you can consider independence too, when retro shes very good for mobbing
I dont lack CVs sadly
In fact I have way too many CVs in port 
1 HVAR's (used by fritz), and was just curious no bulins yet
necessary to get 3rd black shell next month if already have 2 hpfcr?
well depends on when Zwei reruns then

I guess I will just save up for a third pair of shells just to make sure
And then I start getting other things in the core shop
Since, I donāt need any more white or black shells really, what should I be grabbing with cores? (I need to grab something from the monthly shop anyway for the new ābeginnerā missions)
Anyway how good is Breguet against Tenzan
Are the lucky bags good, or nah?
Trafalgar
when is unzen rerun
we don't know, probably not for a few months still
how many blueprint do i need to make her >
lie 343 or smthin
traf or laffey 2 better š¤
hmmm..I'm gonna change my Research pro. from Friedrich der GroĆe to her then...Friedrich needs too much Bluprint..
im not postive leme double check
/devbp
is taihou just eye candy or can she be utilized in opsi?
Yeesh all of those spread out bullins....
Prob Amagi CV > Lion == Alsace > Soyuz > Vanguard > Whichever Vanguard UR you need
you don't need any BPs to actually unlock her
/fleettech
Q: How do I get more fleet technology points?
You get fleet tech points by:
- Collecting the ship (~20%)
- Max Limit Breaking it (~45%)
- Achieving level 120 (~35%)
-Higher rarity ships gives more fleet tech pts .
-Heavier ship hulls also gives more fleet tech pts: CV=BB>CA>CL>DD
Side notes:
-PR ships give more fleet tech pts than normal but follow the above formula with development 30 replacing MLB.
-META ships are considered a separate META faction. They give same bonuses as their non-META versions.
-Collab ships, Muse and little versions of ships e.g. Li'l Sandy, Clevelad and Lena etc do not give any fleet tech pts.
-Iron Blood faction ships receive double the normal tech points compared to other nations.
For more information and exact amounts, consult the wiki
you will however need 850 EU tech points to start her development
I bit of a noob and I don't no much I just want to no what gear to give a ship
that's heavily context dependent
ow...from there ...but what are we collecting blueprints for then..?? i mean from the research...
that's to D30 them (#gameplay-help message)
Which is their equivalent of limit breaks and enhancements
to max her development level which is the equivilent of limit breaks for PRs and DRs
Here is what I got on agir
soo...if i collect all her blueprint i get all star on her..

Thank you
when is there a reason to use black shell over hsfcr? should i just switch it out for every BB to hsfcr?
Timing
What are the odds of pulling ur chars i just started lol
as you can see on the banner, 1.2% per build
Does anyone ever get lucky with 1 tap

Probabilities says someone is bound to be
Guys how do I complete the tech points?
Just obtain ships, MLB ships, and 120 ships. You'll get it passively sooner than you think, don't need to rush it.
So I just need to get a new ship?
More than just one new ship, but yes.
Thanks!
Is lion better vanguard or backline?
Lion
Lion physically cannot be placed into the Vanguard position in the first place
Vanguard is CA, CL, CB, DD, DDG
Backline is CV, CVL, BB, and BC (And DDG Backline mode but no one uses that)
Oh i literally started playing 30ish mins ago and now very little I simply got lucky and pulled on my first 10 pull
Give this a read then
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips
so,,,is there any photo or guuide on how to get Tech points for a Ship i want to unlock..(Like...where i can get those tech point to unlock the ship)
@soft raft thanks
Anyone got any good tech here?
It was already explained earlier, but for each ship, you get tech points when you:
- Obtain the ship for the first time
- Get them to MLB
- Get them to lvl 120
ignore sanfran dupe I already have her levelled
-# Imagine levelling for tech instead of eHP
im bored 
marseillaise CL eva
Greetings everyone, and especially to the expert players here. I'm trying to form a 2nd fleet for my formations but Im not really that good (Last time I played the game, was around half a year ago or so.) any help would be appreciated! Thanks! 
Reno op tech
@soft raft so in terms of char pulling only pull from event ones?
what chapter at the campaign are you at now? because if its below w9 its sorta not worth it to make a 2nd fleet yet
for starters, ditch indianapolis and switch her with portland
4-4 lol
CA FP, Roon, Algerie
DD FP: Z47, Le Trio, Pompeo, Nubian
CL FP: Dusburg, Santa-Fe, Marseillaise, Kirov META, Kubychev, Avrora
CA HIT: Chien Wu
CL EVA: Guichen
pull on the event banner to try and get lion
ow...ok..but...mm..Suppose i have 500 Eagle union Tech point and i Use it to unlock Anchoege and start her research..... will the Tech point go away...?
it wont go away
May you do me an analysis of this aux equipment on Juno
its not a currency thing, its more of a point system
oww..
Will Nagato ever get a retro or augment? 
Any recommendation on which of the URs I have should I MLB and add to my current fleet, any tips will be appreciated (Iām also working towards getting the āfreeā UR)
Amagi CV first
If possible
Lion
also lion
He doesnāt have lion tho
Save up for mlb Lion
Then he should keep on pulling the UR banner
he doesnt, but pulling for lion and mlb her is better
I agree
Regensburg is +2 CL FP, Neptune si _1
^^^^
I only have around 160 cubes, should I try ?
Make a hit for it
You miss all the shots you don't take
Should I roll Lion dupes since Im out of bulins? I have 1074 cubes left 
Either way I have enough for 2 UR, which would be the second priority and in case I get lion, with what should I switch ?
rookie mission and natrual gain should push you into pity
Just wait for bulins.
Alsace Vanguard Lion is basically top meta and will work on all ammo types , alsace will mob and lion boss
you got Bismarck Zwei?
Nah. I need to yoink her too. Then spend bulins on that
So Im very short on bulins for the upcoming few months
how far are you from pity again
Very far. I got her in 20 rolls
given the circumstances
what I'd do is do 3 dailies on the event and see how that goes for you
Yea I think so too
Amagi
do you want other ships?
I do have a lot of cubes tho
also does the train actually do anything in event stage, i can't see what it use to attack
Not a clue
is the sp stage just not available yet?
clear D3
clear D3, B3 hard
am i stupid, where is d3
B3 -> hard
I think it calls down lasers from the sky when it passes? Hard to tell and not like it does much either way.
oh hard mode is inside the stages now
/hardmode
thanks lol
how can you not notice the button after clearing all 6 stages
Is Cleopatra good by any chance? Like usable if I like her
Ah btw I noticed they pushed the medal shop purchase for specialized core limit to 2000. Is that permanent? Do we get that monthly now?
yes
Yes
Very nice
Usable, no more no less
For example Scylla from 2 years ago is better
being stupid + clicking go without looking at anything else
What abt trafalgar
Very good
Thought so, I might use her in OPSI just because she's cute
Whatās she good for comparing to other UR DD girls
Trafalgar here
Average German main (I'm sorry for the joke)
This is the preliminary review of Trafalgar and her tentative tier list placement.

-# Mebotmisinformation 
whats the best dive bomber in the game again?
besides the UR ones, the best budget option is the Helldiver
late game and harbiter
could have been more specific 
Skyraider vs Light/Med bosses, Tenrai vs Heavy boss or Mobbing.
Wyvern.
Spearfish is also good if you already have it, but might not be worth going after.
I'm gonna note this too, thanks
so for cv, id want wyvern, pancake, and tenrai for general use
Have something even better: #gameplay-help message
God damn. Thx
I need help figuring out with of these two are better for off fleet. Ps it's a full Iorn Blood fleet.
you have none
uncheck this
yea, that check mark keeps like a hundred or two blueprints for future fate sim, uncheck it and you can analyze your bps
Done thank help
Who should I build first? I can buy additional 2 proto bulins in the shop
i would say implac
i mean whod you use implac with
True, but I'll have to farm for a good torp plane, still don't have a good one
she could work with anyone right, shinano or rumey or BB(not sure)
or wait for zwei
Uhhh if she has buff effects with other royal girls I think Warspite?
lol no implac main role is stopper
not like implac is locked to work with nano and haku only
š„ āæ
Haven't used Warspite in a while though
actually, can you get lion
I'll try, I have like 156 in the pity atm
save for Lion

yea get lion and then do her
yeah its longer than standard 2 week event so higher chance of landing lion i suppose
very easy to get
Is it possible to get an additional 44 cubes by this time
of course, you can get a lot more than that

Wait witch one, the main and event pity are two different things
Main event
I pulled 156 cubes in and still no Lion
then you need 88 cubes to hit pity
Dam that's close, I'm only at 12, though I play more casually.
did you get the cubes from handbook?
I'd send 88 if I could, I have more than 1,000𤣠but ya your super close and do missions, you'll get more that way.
Still working on that
we still have more than 2 weeks so it's ample time to get from daily and commissions
how does warspite deal more than my shinano

she shoots more, maybe
or your shinano has weird loadout, or not mlb, could be many reasons
was gonna say bad gear, level difference, lack of LBs, the list goes on
it's very easy to skew the results you get in this game
Who to get
is shinano mlb?
No,
you have 3 weeks about and you get 168 cubes a month guranteed
then shinano until she's mlb
you have enough time
I got ur bulins, but im planning to them on lion
yes... so get shinano
to slowly mlb shinano so that you can use her wherever you want when she's mlb
ok
Can u help me with 2nd fleet?
did you get UR bulin from milestone from this event yet?
Not yet, been too busy
get it and mlb lion
lion saratoga x
lala kazagumo sakawa
ask someone else for the X šš¼āā”ļø
oh you already have sakawa there
Yes
Core data???? Oh shells, i think i got one
Unicorn
Unicorn
just raise anyone you want for now i guess, lion should carry regardless, idk what's best to fill in that last mainfleet slot for you
f2p=dockslot
p2w=whichever you like
You know what reddit says, whichever makes you harder



is Indomitable good
pretty meh by todays standards
no
alright ill stick with my formidable
That's even worse

Im putting her with my Shinano 
gotta love folks who cant read
Is shinano even mlb?
Yuudachi is at the vanguard
yea
She wants 2 other japanese teammates...
Im using converging torps she cant hit shit
formi and indom aint helping
Formi's freeze is so scuffed
She misses her own TBs cos of the weird timing
sir, D3 has oil cap
well shit nobody told me that
bro loves gimping himself
The game told you that

making some glorious choices here aren't we
šŖ
You should be using parallel torps to begin with
enter tumble weed noises
How many wishing well we get each year?
How many have we get this year now
EN anni hasn't happened yet so
Nice
dang ai
Janus for wishing well 
oh i was gonna ask is wishing well worth doing?
AI answering azur lane information 
i guess mebot switched platforms
It's over for gph
If you still have an absolute shit ton of cubes after rolling lion
Bearing in mind Bismarck 2 rerun is due soon
Possibly Ryza Collab rerun too
TL;DR : no
ahh i've got like 250ish after pulling
By absolute shit ton, I do mean several hundred
i prob want bismarck i think
Bismarck rerun? Ryza rerun?? Are you real or speculating?
though you may or may not want to do ww on light if you have all event ships already
dont even have bulins to mlb all of these urs
Bismarck 2 is the next UR due for a rerun
And Ryza rerun has been announced
There's no speculation here
ryza a must have?
you also dont waste cubes to pull dupes
Ofc Ryza isn't a must have
nothing is must have
I'm just pointing out things you may want to save cubes for
looking for advice on what to craft in gear lab, currently have this:
Another twin 76 AA if you're looking to challenge w15
If you only have 1 mk7 (and 1 lion gun), then maybe another mk7
thanks! that makes sense, ill roll with that
For none rainbow, flapjacks, converging TBs, single 113 for z52/traf
i have 3 flapjacks, what is a converging tb? will look to make some single 113s
/gearlab
laffey 2 or traf better
You can look at that chart for ideas
Completely different uses
o
thanks!
Laffey 2 is a very very good tank, that is an AA specialist
She shines most in end campaign maps (and pvp)
Trafalgar is also an AA specialist that has a very potent debuff when used with a BB flagship
She is expected to shine most with certain bossing comps for opsi, meta and CMs
thanks for the explanation man
why 113 and not just use 76, they are barely better
Not barely actually
At least in the case of z52
Cos z52 has a whopping 170% gun eff
well that's z52
Traf AoA isn't as good as z52's
But at the same time she doesn't have the gunnery z52 does
How do I access sp in event
ya like for the specific case of 52 then 113 but like for other ship just go with 76 it cost nothing
finish D3 @fallow sedge
might as well put a how to access event while youre at it
and how to use a toothpick
should I farm for both Trafalgar form the event shop
Is there any way to limit break of event chars without pulling more of them?
Bulins
also pulling for dupes is a waste of resources
So just getting one lion is all that matters?
yeh
but if you are whaling then dun mind me
@late flame yeah no im not whaling and never will got to many bills to pay lol
p.s. as a person who had whaled for cubes before, no its not worth it since the rates is shit
@late flame I got lucky first 10 pull ever on this game got me.lion lol
Do i stop at 70K point?
Is the T0 Twin 381mm Main Gun - Variant Design from the event stage any good
do you want a gold crane
No
Hmmm I think with max skill it's possible to get 2k burn ticks
ty
80 and 100k rewards drop 2 rainbow gear box that has a 0% chance of dropping UR gear, so you get stuck with a gold crane when you open it
id stop at 55k, or 70k works too ig
yeah, i mean is extra 15K points even worth it for 2 rainbow book
you can probably get a good amount just by doing dailies and sp, u can calc that
how good is the event gun? I'm gna pick it up anyways but was just wondering
What's the burn damage eq?
its great
best light damage gun by a little bit
great, ty!
Only lvl7, she is gonna leak much higher
U got Aquila from WW?
i got 3 yes
Ok dumb question but is there a reason to pick one char over another to be the gold flagship thing???
it's lion s1 right or i misread again
damn riceist doesn't have burn in barrage table
Where is his barrage table , he said it should be the same
which UR ship that should be keep for second copy ?
Some ships prefer the flagship position for their skills and/or barrage
The flagship position is also the best position to place a BB to defend the main fleeta against suicide boats
And lastly if your flagship is sunk you automatically lose the battle
How good is Lion dmg compared to biszwei
No black hole , but her damage is unmatched
is taihou any good with harbiter
no
what armor are arbiters for this month?
medium
Raffey has her own skill set 
Sheās kinda eh tho
should be decent against heavy armor arbiter
for medium... not as impactful tho
taihou is at most meh even as a gold cv
what's the new best 3bb setup against medium armor? lion alsace soyuz? where does biszwei fit in
probably replaces soyuz
@viscid swift would lion be good for flagship?
so is lion is the best hard hitting BB in terms of just shelling dmg only?
Can someone toss at me some CV bossing fleets examples? Iāve always been a BB enjoyer so id really use a cv setup
If she's MLB sure
for what boss?
Mostly interested against light armor setup
kearsarge,yorktown2,enty/fritz/nakhimov is a great setup
soyuz,rumey,nakhimov is also a great setup
run hvar hellcats
Anything else without the Russians?
Not particularly
kearsarge,yorktown2,enty/fritz probably works with eldridge in the vanguard

could laffey tank and add a DDG
I did miss a few units so Eldridge is not an option. Iāll give it a try using Sirius instead.
Any other generic setup I could run other than this with possibly implacable and shinano? Not necessarily light
For opsi?
Could just go Shinano, Amagi CV, Implacable, tank, Kazagumo, flex
is trafalgar gonna be meta changing?
Implacable 
even among the current UR pool?
I was cooking this for my fleets
wait for testing but probably yes
Alright thanks. This is definitely way more doable for my account. 
good to know, im asking cuz im taking inventory of all my owned ships and gear and redistributing
Not like opsi is particularly difficult with modern ships and gear
since i keep finding shit like +10 rainbow ijn dd gun on useless dds
Modern BBs are busted enough to punch through 30% HP , 1 damage debuff
Just out of curiosity, wouldnāt be better to use Vanguard over Alsace in a Bismarck+Lion scenario?
Not necessarily better
Sims shows vanguard would be a slight downgrade
But in honestly , any of the 3 paired with Lion would be perfectly fine
What main gun should I use for Sirius?
DD gun
Well yes but thereās a lot of DD guns
The usual
Fuuuggg
Rainbows if you can afford it
I donāt have enough prints for rainbows. Are there any good golds?
Well what do you use on your DDs and such
Russian 130
That works
Nice ty
Sirius damage is kind of pathetic anyway , doesn't need good guns
throw in the front with a rudder and pearl all ya need
How do guys unlock the ex stage?
make sirius tank and bring another buffer ong

What's the composition/gear for a 3 oil fleet?
0LB mahan + 0LB CVL below lv34
which UR should i mlb? i know its best to complete vanguard/shimakaze/shinano cuz theyre closest to being done but i dont think I will use them.
I need help. When trying to defeat the 3-4 boss after the first wave it wonāt send the boss in to battle
how many bulins can you afford
what do you mean
click on the role
How do you get bullins
depends on what bulins
but you should be 1 fleeting anyway, since you're just at 3-4
i have 8
Lion and Musashi I guess, spend your upcoming pities on Shinano
they most meta rn? did implacable get power crept?
Implacable is still the best stopper but doesn't look like you're forming a fleet with her anyway
can i make a good boss fleet with any of these + implacable?
implac/cvmagi/shinano
who should i get from the invitation?
see this is why you don't trucate your dock when asking, in that case Shinano/Implacable first
shi my fault š i didnt want to send my mlb URās already so i sorted it š
ship choices are based on comps not individual ships
fsfs havent played inna hot min just roll UR events so ive been out of the game for a lil
Check the pins
for shinano can i just wait for pity? and if so who shud i MLB after implacable? musashi or lion? ive noticed lion seems mob oriented but im not sure
Why do people keep saying Lion is mobbing oriented ffs
misinfo
She literally has the highest damage of any BB in the game across all armor types
damn i just came back to the game today and seen one of the event units have highest dmg :o
where does it say??? i dont wanna get misinformation no more
saw from yt
if you do Shinano now pity goes to VG
then Musashi is next in line since archive should be later this year
while that is correct youtube is one of the worst places for AL meta info
always buy the ur one if i can righ?
old shop buy everything
what do u mean with old
i was gonna wait for shinano for pity and just mlb implacable and lion rn is that not the right course of action rn?
@viscid swift taihou is not inside the pins
why should Taihou be in the pins
the invitation thingy
the shop has a different format once you get to monthly resets
They changed the format of the shop sometime back bur for whatever reason before your first Opsi reset it remains the old one
is the old one better?
worse
that's why you should clear story and get reset up ASAP
besides also getting daily missions
sooo does this mean i shud mlb implacable and shinano rn?
if its worse, why i need to buy out everything?
old shop refreshes every 3 days from a fixed pool
if you buy everything you get to rotate more shit in without seeing old shit again
new shop just has everything lined up, unlocked by clearing OS zones
Taiho is an OK CV that needs her unique augment, that's pretty much what you need to know
also you don't keep any of the currency after reset anyway so there's no point not buying shit
i see
i bought these out but that last one i dont have much recources for it. and the ur thing uses the same recource and cost 300
where is better?
any thoughts on Lion's barrage increasing her detection gauge a lot? I saw it in a youtube video, is it a bug or no?
that's why you clear everything up to get more currency, and keep repeating
Just grind a few more strongholds and such
Getting purple tokens ain't difficult, just grind
wait what ? so i start from 0 ?pls dont tell me i lose these too
after you clear story you also get missions for more currency and strongholds that are around 400-600 tokens a piece
You do
they do nothing above 203
Not that it's difficult to build them back up
............... so the maps will get hard again
you can save up to 999 adapt and it doesn't do squat
not if your fleets are good
again it's not like your fights are getting any easier after 203, in most cases they do nothing above 188
im aware of that, but i didnt swap any units out since yeas ago
treat it as a monthly roguelite reset
i dont even know how to switch units
you could have asked that too... but on a monthly reset you get to redo your fleets anyway
do we know all the balls in the minigame through datamine?
fr?

so you cant combine 2 saratoga?
Just build good fleets
also quick question, whats the max score in minigame and how many pts can i probably get in 72 hours of continous gaming
bcs i wanna do this?
wow all max lvl
because your fleets in general are kinda mid
his one is mid?
for a 6yo account yes, it's extremely mediocre
yes they are all several years old
im sure he can make way better fleets with what he has
wait do you get a sara if you get up to 2 kashinos to bump?
š then mine is even worse then
maybe
wtf I need to go back to the minigame now
yeah im sure i can. thats why im asking if there are any fleets everyone uses
pls elp
it's best to post your dock in a thread, copy paste only work if we assume you have identical ship and gear and tech and whatnot
'sara can't be bigger'
how should i do it
do i link it here then?
well the thread is created here, we can see it dont worry lol
is this counted as mid or even worse
just by level alone already worse
Opsi fleets help
oops wrong one
same answer
is this the place to ask what emulators al works on?
Just update your current emulator
darn, uninstalled bluestacks cause it didn't work, ty!
For bluestacks android 11 or android 13 both work
gotta switch to android 11 or 13 from pie64 using the instance manager
are any of these still in the tier 0 and above?
thanks
that pic makes me miss being a new player
how good is Cleopatra?
Not good
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips
Give that a read
any notable drops in D2 for a new acc 
oh D2 drops sara? guess I can grind this instead
B3 drops Glorius M right?
Yes
But same probab as D3?
Probably
No way to know for sure
Ah F
Frankly
Unless you're 4-5 costing B3 or are flat out unable to do D3
I would just farm D3
Makes eternal for a newbie just farming the event in B3
If she doesn't drop that's what the event shop is for
Yeah but 8k i farm that in 7 days
btw the UR weapon from event shop best option for Lion?
It's the best for any BB dealing with light armour
pretty sure you can do better than 8k and event is 3 weeks
I know but with just 8k i dont do anything at shop
I may wait Glorius to drop from B3
you don't have to buy it now and there's a bunch of bonus event points in missions as you grind more
you only buy the ship if you don't have it by end of event and you'll still need 8k for the crystals anyway
Does lion have cross fleet barrage? I cant tell them apart from the event in set lions 
Yeah thats what im saying no need to buy unless i really lack of SR bulins
you can't bulin META ships either you get enough dupes/crystals or you can't MLB
2nd skill bottom, only first 3 fights if I remember correctly
Yeah i meant for my actual bulins
Should i Mlb lion
What kind of gun should I give to Cleopatra?
just saying whether or not you buy Glorious META or not and whether you get dupes or not has zero bearing on your SR bulins
Are there any obvious adjustments I should make to my current fleet?
Hi what should i buy from core shop?
more black and white shells
more black*
do you get anything for defence in pvp? Should I just make a meme team?
just get both whenever you can
he already has 3 white, getting more is just for laziness but not good if you still need other stuff
My main team hit 120 - Nelson, Unicorn, z23, Kazan, DZP and Portland. Are any of them worth awakening to 125? As far as I see arrays are very scarce
so whats the EX stage for anyways?
keep them for now. you'll come back for unicorn eventually but not right now
unicorn is worth it, the rest not so much

500 cogs, and for ranking if you do hard EX
ah
Ive gotten everything from limited pool except lion, i have 87 cubes left, no coins, is it worth to keep drawing for her, i wont make 200 pity im at 107.
But then no cubes for next event
just pray for the 44 tickets miracle for bisZ
Im sorry i have no idea what that means im new
we still have 2 weeks+ left too, plenty of times to get more cubes
do 3 builds per day, and if you still dont have lion on the last day, pull all
wdym you won't make it, it's 2 more weeks no?
the next UR rerun is Bismarck Zwei, it comes with 44 free building tickets
Ah i see
you may get her for free with the 44 tickets if you're lucky enough
I dont have enough cubes for 200 pity i meant
I love gambling

I'm basically in the same situation as you and I was confident I'll get Lion by the end. Was I wrong?
Well everyone says gamble away who am i to say no
You should therefore also continue pulling one of us has to get lucky
Or im leaving this game for another half decade
I mean I expected to hit pity safely lmao
O
I dont know how to get 100 cubes in 2 weeks but im not checking enough so i may be wrong
yeah I might have overestimated my cube stock and income
Handbook has 148 cubes according to the pin
I just got Trafalgar and I don't know if I should replace my Retrofit Eldridge for Trafalgar, should I replace it or no?
If for map 15 Anti-Aircraft then no
Best aux for lion?
Double shell
Table/hsfcr
Is Trafalgar better for mobbing or bossing?
š
Trafalgar here
whos my curreent focus? i can mlb either implac lion or traf vanguard
That's all rainbows, no amagi or haku?
no amagi
You have 3 bulins?
is there like a website for fleet compositions?
i'll have 2 but third is soonish so planning
Lion
Fleet compositions vary a lot based on
- The game mode/boss
- Your available ships
As such there are various different guides on the internet (most of them bad or outdated)
What is priority on bulins for these
What URs do you have
Implacable
would this work ok for opsi bossing? i dont have alsace so i didnt know who to use other than vanguard
rainbow spam always works in opsi
Ah yeah. btw i got first copy from B3. So shes worth farming her as a newbie right? I heard shes good
What's good cv team(s)
With who I have
Lmao lvl 1
agir fate simulation coming?
is there a content creator application form or anything?
METAs are kind of messy ot raise as new players because of availability of materials
especially if you somehow miss the crystals needed to MLB but I guess you should be fine on that one
Ah, but ahave extra dmg for sirens
whick one is the correct description for HMS lion 2nd skill in game it said 10% dmg deal and in wiki 10% dmg taken?
Im still lvl51 didnt unlock siren yet
it's not that important and you basically run into 0 sirens for campaign
But for bossing not good?
Better the PR and DR?
maybe par with older PRs
they're generally not better than modern ships of the same rarity
mmn btw for my first PR should be Roon?
Roon is usually recommended for KMS tech because you want to unlock FdG/Agir soon-ish
but it's usually not the first ship you can work on
does baltimore's cv buff stack with ARA?
like is there a website for predetermined fleet that players can just copy the composition
it should off the top of my head but it only works on USS CVs
what if i do this with high efficiency logistic plan? how much will i get
should I just use the universal gold plates for whichever plate im running low on? (bb,torp mostly for now)
i see, thanks
ill use it for champy,flandre gun then, since i dont have la-9
also is there any pr ship from series 7 worth using the generic prints on? or should I use them wherever I like
How many spec cores do we get per month now
What should i change (my fdg is dev 29) and who should i awaken ?
bayard or daisen are ok, not halford
ok, thanks ill unlock bayard soon so ill use it on her then
save for lion
start raising your lion, mlb her
Does anyone have a screenshot of an incomplete fleet tech screen?
Instead of level 9 9 9 9 something like 2 5 6 3 ?

better make sure you're counting properly
