[tame jungle]

it's not new

[jaunty vault]

As long as they were in medal shop,yes

[carmine heath]

[whole crypt]

it was always outside of monthly limit, the recent change was adding even more cores

[carmine heath]

rip 6000 cores you will be missed

[jaunty vault]

How much did they add

[forest palm]

extra 1k iirc

should be 20/20 now

[jaunty vault]

[whole crypt]

2k

and the new cores are more expensive

[forest palm]

260 Medals is so bad

[split gazelle]

for 3k protocores

[forest palm]

so 2 Bulins per month is

[whole crypt]

if you're not very active the 2k is a bit rough

you don't have to buy all of it though

[wind hazel]

if you're not active in the game, you don't deserve to max UR

[little tree]

[forest palm]

realistically how many medals could you expect to get grinding the initial 5k Sp Cores is what I'm curious about

[worldly pewter]

30 maybe

[forest palm]

that is way too little, unless you just decided to live in Ops

[whole crypt]

you're definitely getting more than 30 for monthly 5k, the question is how much less or more than 260 and whether you have to give up buying other stuff

[forest palm]

it's something to test, and we are moving into a new month as well

[whole crypt]

good luck with that

[wind hazel]

depends on event or campaign. event tends to drop more rare elites from my experience

[whole crypt]

yeh but 12-4 has SR bumps

[wind hazel]

dont grind at 12-4

[forest palm]

why wouldn't you though?

[whole crypt]

current event also loses medals if you get SR

[wind hazel]

so that you can get a fairer average medal?

because choukai drop would be an outlier and skew your result if she drops

[whole crypt]

it's not an outlier if you're doing a couple thousand runs every month anyway

[split gazelle]

assuming you have medal issues at the ch12 grind i thought you guys were talking about new player not being able to afford them

[forest palm]

you're still relatively new by the time you get to 12 honestly

[wind hazel]

as long as you do couple of sortie everyday i dont think medal is an issue

[whole crypt]

once you're up to oil cap it's more activity than where you do it

also lower chapters take more clears to get the cores so you skew with more runs

[forest palm]

gotta remember I can't burn bulins

[opaque gate]

should i exchange for glorious meta? or is she droppable

[wind hazel]

can drop b3/d3/sp

[opaque gate]

ok thanks

[forest palm]

she can drop, wait post event to buy her from the shop

[compact helm]

should i 4lmb trafalgar or lion first?

[worldly pewter]

what does 4lmb mean ?

[compact helm]

limitbreak

[worldly pewter]

are u reserving trafalgar second copy for something ?

[compact helm]

nop ill use her 2nd copy for lmb as soon as i obtain it

[worldly pewter]

start with lion then mlb trafalgar when u get the second copy or wait until the next meta drop

[compact helm]

ok thx but another question

is lion considred ex tier?

thanks!

[worldly pewter]

although the ex tier doesn't make much sense TBH

[compact helm]

why?

[worldly pewter]

each ship has utilities different than the others so a general tier list doesn't show that

[honest sequoia]

or just dont trust ECTL at face value

[compact helm]

the last time i checked the end game tier page lion doesnt show up yet so im not very sure

nvm shes on there now

[next raft]

Is the private dorm worth pushing? It seems pretty tedious at first glance

[mellow cape]

Wdym private dorm?

[next raft]

Ah private quarters was the name

[wind hazel]

only if you're horny

[honest sequoia]

worth pushing if u wanna goon pro max tho

[next raft]

Thanks 🤙 seems like I'll skip it

[warped acorn]

possibility of lion with 800 fp?

[wind hazel]

with tech yeah

[woven star]

btw got today 10 Trafalgar points for dailies: 5 from pvp and 5 from SP. Seems 140 left and total 425 if nothing change

[forest palm]

inflating stats is the equivalent of putting lipstick on a pig

[normal cedar]

can you turn off the "let's pick up our loot" in opsi? Ive already turned reduce tb guidance off

[little tree]

[honest sequoia]

[undone plover]

Turn it on not off

[normal cedar]

ohh got it, I misread

[whole crypt]

I'm tempted to just let old mode OS roll over to next month on CN

[hollow gust]

Nah , still like 30 fp short

[stark quiver]

what abt with oath as well

[hollow gust]

That's with oath

[worldly pewter]

just wait for the ur shell

[carmine heath]

ur shell?

[boreal wagon]

489 (base 125/200) + 65 (lion gun) + 65 (ply gun) + 15 (134 aa) + 46 (afct) + 85 (black shell) + 92 (max tech) = 857
without 134 aa this makes 842
without 134 and without oath (base of 463) this makes 816
and thats just one way for her to get 800+ and doesnt even account for her 15% skill
not sure what u calced

[errant fog]

I just cleared opsi like couple of days ago till now and only have this amount of tickets. What else can I do to increase it even more if I were to use the map coor? OR just keep them anyway cuz almost reset. (I will do the boss fight after this)

[river junco]

boss fight will give you more tickets

i would use the siren coordinate loggers at the least since they can drop rainbow mats

map coordinate loggers will also give gear lab materials

[hollow gust]

Used total gear from stat screen, got fucked somewhere

[whole crypt]

isn't most UR BBs around the 800 mark after buffs

[eternal basalt]

Use them, use them ALL

[whole crypt]

spend the coords there's no point converting them to vouchers when you're spending vouchers to buy coords in the end

maybe skip the c2s I guess

[errant fog]

I never used my vouchers for coords.... I supposed to do that? lol

[boreal wagon]

after buffs they all sit around that yeah if not higher im too lazy to do the math (lion breaks into the upper 900s with her self buff)

if u consider the whole fleet they all sit pretty dang high and some even break 1k

[warped acorn]

trafalgar buff

[wind oxide]

Dang

[warped acorn]

maybe at this point it reach 2k+ burn dmg per 3 sec

[boreal wagon]

she needs like 1088 fp for that (and the lion has to hit otherwise its MUCH less dmg dealt)

[river junco]

if you have extra vouchers, you can get the siren loggers from exchange shop since clearing those have a chance to drop ordnance reports or design plans

[eternal basalt]

How voucher shop should look like

[carmine heath]

poor meta

[little tree]

You don't get the oil one?

[whole crypt]

waste of oil

it costs less oil to just recon every zone by hand even if you restored AP to do it on cooldown

[little tree]

I get it so I can doo al the zones while I sleep at night

[whole crypt]

too wasteful for me

recon needs an auto use button like sub summon

[forest palm]

cba to do this

[whole crypt]

and I can't be arsed to spend 5k oil just for free movement and recon

[stark quiver]

5k oil is a good number of 12-1 runs

[eternal basalt]

Just takes a week to manually clear all map

[polar lion]

Sayme opinion

Oil and cogs hav become the most precious commodity for me

[stark quiver]

I just wake up midnight to start another ops clear, you are casual

[forest palm]

swip for oil la

[mellow cape]

Is three days enough to get hornet meta? I started super late

Just completed all the zones last night and arbiters / strong holds today... I'm cooked

[eternal basalt]

A week minimum

[forest palm]

regardless there's not enough time to get Hornet

[eternal basalt]

Don't know if a week others at max will save you...

[sweet delta]

I found a similar but weaker table in #media-content

[stark quiver]

No
Gg

[mellow cape]

@-@

Oh well maybe one day

[stark quiver]

Also clearing ops doesn’t correlate to meta sd

[whole crypt]

the RLD is probably slightly off because I used wiki's 125

[mellow cape]

Yeah I know just sad about missing out on a ship because I was so busy this month

[eternal basalt]

Do whatever you can and when she comes to dossier less work

[vale flicker]

how can I increase oil/coin capacity? saw youtube vids with capcities 4-5k higher than mine...

[whole crypt]

more levels, guild tech

[mellow cape]

Guilds

[eternal basalt]

Guild Shop / commander level

[mellow cape]

I will say, unicorn, Alsace, and lion for mobbing makes it a joke for op si mobbing..

[whole crypt]

if you're already using Lion for mobbing Alsace is basically redundant

[sweet delta]

What's the first ship's EN name?

[kind slate]

Are the timings on the gear tab in dock the actual timings? Can i use that to sync?

[vale flicker]

thanks, what is guild tech? tried going into a guild im in and upgrading the capcities

[whole crypt]

zetto fifuteetoo

[mellow cape]

That's true loll my mobbing fleet also has ibuki so it's almost redundant

I don't know where I would fit lion tho

[eternal basalt]

Doesn't take a lot into account like skills

[kind slate]

right. Is there a better tool?

[whole crypt]

but yeh the realistic tech you'd expect people to have is 3 or 7, from USS faction tech

every single DD RLD tech is a complete fodder ship at 120

[polar lion]

Suchi, what is mark 35 torp good for again?

[little tree]

How good is lions mobbing in 15 compared to mushai

Or does her lack of aa make her heavy weight

[whole crypt]

musashi has worse AA than her

[patent pivot]

what level is tier 15 meta

[boreal wagon]

126

[honest stirrup]

Yes but in counterparts, musachi greatly improves the backline's survivability, while Lion only increases for herself

Personally when I played w15, Musachi was really the only one to ever go below 30%HP

[hollow gust]

However Lion Burn OP

[elfin nimbus]

lion barrage is bug atm, she can increase your flagship detection gauge

[whole crypt]

Lion stands to shorten fights which can reduce taken damage, and Musashi being the only one to go low is misleading because she is soaking damage while having low AA

the damage will be more uniform in the case of Lion

and as long as you kill fast enough and get patched when you need it you'll be fine

[hollow gust]

Lion's burn was spreading to the subs for some reason

[sweet delta]

The damage will appear to be "focused" on for non-Musashi fleets

[whole crypt]

top and bottom lane CVs both get hit, Unicorn just happens to usually be the softer target

I guess put Unicorn in whichever lane the BB is more likely to die first

[whole crypt]

burning underwater 🔥

[honest sequoia]

thats the best asian slang ive ever seen

[whole crypt]

to be fair oil is the one thing I refuse to swipe for but I'm also past the lowest point anyway

[boreal wagon]

i mean subs are in fact enemies and it does say nearest enemy

[elfin nimbus]

true

[whole crypt]

I know why it's happening it's just the idea is amusing

[hollow gust]

Most burn tick I have seen on my lion was 1.8k

[forest palm]

getting cooked in a tin can under water

[pseudo hearth]

insert Korone Fire in the Water clip

[white bronze]

I completed b3 how do i unlock sp in event

[forest palm]

have to do D3

[white bronze]

Thanks

[candid hound]

Does anyone have ship build guide

[jaunty vault]

as in timers? or as in what to build? I assume you mean guide

[candid hound]

I want a guide to build for Trafalgar(sorry for my programmar)

[jaunty vault]

so gearing her

[candid hound]

but idk what to use

[jaunty vault]

me neither, im sure someone here will help 😔

[candid hound]

dang 😦

[candid hound]

where can I get that yellow dragon

[wind hazel]

ssss collab

cant get it now if you missed it

[candid hound]

dang

[wind hazel]

any hp aux will do

[candid hound]

thanks

[jaunty vault]

[cobalt gate]

for getting cog using reasearch is rainbow > blue > gold > purple?

[viscid swift]

not sure about the last two but something like that yes

[rigid glacier]

Hello everyone
I am new in this game
Can someone give me some advices about the best team i can currently build from my ship and about gear?

[turbid marsh]

try to pull lion, right now, focus on portland janus z23 unicorn + get a nelson from main campaign.

[candid hound]

can I use Quintuple instead of Quaruple?

[wind hazel]

no

well you can, but the damage will not be good

[candid hound]

alright,btw how I can get Quaruple

[wind hazel]

ironblood gold techbox

[candid hound]

thanks

[viscid swift]

might wanna give that a read

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

[candid hound]

if I don't have gold Quanruple can I replace that with purple one?

[wind hazel]

as transitional sure

[paper walrus]

is 55k a good point to stop farming

[kind slate]

where can i get more catapuls. i need more

[ivory pawn]

Research. Gold tech boxes.

[candid hound]

which augment should i use?

[wind hazel]

hammer according to local youtuber

[candid hound]

[forest palm]

normally, yes, but also there's a lot of things to buy from the shop that can exceed the 55k milestone

[river junco]

Can I get some help making good fleets/equips to 3* clear 15-3 and 15-4? I'll post my current fleet and ships/gear in a thread

[wind hazel]

dw hammer is good. her gun sucks so it's better to boost her torp damage with hammer
-# or at least i think

[rigid glacier]

Is it worth to use quick finishers?

[white agate]

yes, they never end anyway

[candid hound]

ok thank for your help

[turbid marsh]

yes sir, might as well use them if you have. you ll end up with thousands anyways in a few years ofc

[cobalt gate]

does chapter 13 have any enemy subs?

[viscid swift]

no

[cobalt gate]

oh nice

[glacial widget]

anyone have a fleet for EX?

[sweet delta]

This is what I used to auto, the Trafalgar was level 110 or some

[cobalt rapids]

i used alsus haku amagi jintsu helena shima

[kind slate]

guys hows the gear looking for anti heavy. btw ive synced via first cooldown. is that the correct way?

[cobalt rapids]

shinano is abit far from implac

[sweet delta]

This is good for 3 strikes

But Sirius gun is not good. Give her a DD gun

You can also use fewer ryuuseis to avoid +13ing so many

[kind slate]

i used this one https://traneptora.com/azur-lane/cooldown/airstrike/

i got start times of 24.52 (amagi), 24.57 (implac), 24.71 (shinano) dunno why its different

[kind slate]

wait what do i use instead. ngl i dont have a lot of options rn

[sweet delta]

Why not use the calculator I gave you, it's automatic

[kind slate]

it looked so complicated... imma give it another go tho

[sweet delta]

This one is wrong on many more edge cases and isn't correct for long battles like CM

[kind slate]

i see. sorry what am i supposed to do regarding ur comment abt ryuuseis.

should i change them for something?

[stark quiver]

You can find a new sync that uses less ryuuseis
Just mix the planes up

[kind slate]

do i just put them in and see the times? or is there a general template i can take inspiration from

[cobalt rapids]

.here

[kind slate]

wow i do not have enough rainbows

can i just keep them at +10 for now?

or is +13 rlly recommended?

[signal fractal]

so I just started opening large amounts of gear boxes for the first time, and right after, the game prompts me to scrap everything I just got. Is there a way to disable this?

[cobalt rapids]

only +13 when needed

[sweet delta]

You can skip most of the settings and just plug in your reload tech, cats, ships, and gear

[kind slate]

btw what cats are good. or do they not matter that much

[stark quiver]

Pfp fits the message

[sweet delta]

Talents decide a cat. For the carrier fleet, look for cats with Flame, ACE, carrier officer, carrier Avi, or carrier reload

[candid hound]

Who is the best BB rn

[sweet delta]

They're best for different things

[candid hound]

Then who for the campaign

[sweet delta]

Musashi, Raffaello, or possibly Lion

[stark quiver]

Campaign mob is something like musashi and aquila

[candid hound]

Aight and when musashi rerun

[boreal wagon]

aquilla famously known for being a BB

[turbid marsh]

zwei is also a good campaign candidate XD

[lime owl]

Is this a good lion build?

[stark quiver]

She already reran

[jaunty vault]

its alright

[soft raft]

That secondary gun is meh and Yellow shell isnt really that much better than White shell

AA Gun could be better too but that's not the biggest problem there

[jaunty vault]

could be improved

[sweet delta]

What's the point of nitpicking on a yellow shell

[lime owl]

Isnt the yellow shell just a better version of white shell when on brit bbs?

[jaunty vault]

but it's alright

[soft raft]

She reran November 2024

[candid hound]

I mean the next one and did lion worth to pull or must have ship?

[soft raft]

The skill only works on British ships period

[sweet delta]

It is usually better, but only better by 1% perhaps. Use it if you have it, don't buy it if you don't have it

[lime owl]

For whatever reason i stocked up on them when i was newer so i have 2 laying around

[soft raft]

The next UR rerun in line is Bismarck Zwei
Tho regardless, always pull for the Gacha UR if possible

[lime owl]

What is the biggest problem? The gun?

[sweet delta]

The biggest problem is we don't know what enemy she's fighting

[soft raft]

The secondary gun
it's only value is being upgraded into a better version in gear lab

[signal fractal]

ok lemme rephrase: is there a way to stop the game from asking me if I want to scrap gear every time I open a gear box?

[sweet delta]

Lion is only a top 2 bossing BB, idk if you want that or not

[candid hound]

who is top 1

[sweet delta]

Bismarck zwei is the other top 2 usually

[candid hound]

[lime owl]

How do i tell if a sec gun is good?

[sweet delta]

Why wouldn't you try to get both of them though

[soft raft]

You ask here. A triple 155mm would do fine up through chapter 13

[lime owl]

Im at 14

[sweet delta]

For 14 you should get the triple 155mm kai

[candid hound]

my luck didn't enough

[lime owl]

Just upping a few ships for the final push

[atomic abyss]

uprade the triple 155 to triple 155 kai using the gear lab

[ivory pawn]

I have not seen a way to turn it off. Perhaps in a future update, especially if they get some feedback.

[lime owl]

Ok thx will do, should that work for most bbs?

[atomic abyss]

yes, unless you're running a US BB

[signal fractal]

oh that's awful then. unless I'm just unaware, is that something people actually want?

[sweet delta]

I don't care about it

~~In fact, I haven't opened tech boxes since the update ~~

[ornate narwhal]

Which should I do?

[atomic abyss]

given they literally only JUST updated the system to scrap more than 10 boxes at once, and for there to be an actual toggle for rarity to mass select...

[ivory pawn]

I like the new feature, it’s just a bit clunky. Too many clicks if you don’t want to scrap especially.

[atomic abyss]

press in progress to shortcut to those places

[sweet delta]

For dev missions, do all of them? For rookie and mechanics, consult https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VJ12iQu8IdKQ0ss29c_KZ5BGk5BXT0mtwZoOuZMAuaE/edit?usp=sharing

[ornate narwhal]

Yea I meant which season should I do first?

[atomic abyss]

it doesnt matter

[ornate narwhal]

Ok

[atomic abyss]

you will likely end up starting with 1 cos its the easiest to start with

[burnt spade]

For frontline dps auxiliaries do I just slap one dps aux & one survival aux?

[atomic abyss]

both survival by default

evasion + hp for CB/CA/CL

HP for DDs

[sweet delta]

Wdym when you ask about DPS auxiliaries and then propose 1 survival aux

[atomic abyss]

if you're not dying and not what you're doing, then you can consider dps

[kind slate]

can i use this against jellyfish looking boss (medium)

[ornate narwhal]

This is what’s recommended right?

[sweet delta]

I would not recommend using CVs against the abyssal Harmony

[burnt spade]

Damn seems like I wasted a lot of resources before I bothered looking more into gears lmao, tyty

[atomic abyss]

assuming you alr got lion, yes
but only 1x a day

[kind slate]

so bbbbbb better?

[sweet delta]

Good BBs is better than good CVs against Harmony specifically

[agile sky]

where is event shop UR 2nd copy in terms of priority? is it 2nd highest or below something else in the shop?

[sweet delta]

Below UR gun

And below oil, if you have time to spend that oil

[kind slate]

im assuming soyuz zwei and alsace is adequate? also ap right? not he

[atomic abyss]

yes

[soft raft]

yes and yes

[sweet delta]

If you like ship collection, also reserve but not immediately use 8000 for glorious in case she doesn't drop by the end of the event

[agile sky]

i c i c. Thnx!

[fiery finch]

She is good damage ?

[soft raft]

if you dont have Amagi CV yee

[fiery finch]

I has Amagi CV

[soft raft]

Amagi CV powercrept Haku in OpSi bossing but outside of that, Haku's still a good stonks damage CV

[kind slate]

whats the easiest way to farm coins in opsi

[cobalt rapids]

strongholds but u should do all ur stuff that has icons above

[ivory pawn]

The opsi tokens? Just clear all the icons on the map. I find Strongholds (swirly) give a lot.

[ornate narwhal]

When doing extra mobs for the stars is it worth beating the boss?

[cobalt rapids]

yes if it has clearing rewards
u can skip boss pre clear rewards and on hard modes to save attempts

[ivory pawn]

Usually, since the boss is the bulk of the stage rewards. Exception for if on Hard mode and trying to do it in a day.

[soft raft]

you only have to go out of your way to manually select all enemies for the "Kill all enemies" star

[kind slate]

whats the treasurebox icon in opsi

[stark quiver]

Hidden zones

[cobalt rapids]

hiddens

[ivory pawn]

If gold, a hidden zone. If red, an abyssal.

[eternal moth]

What's the best fleet for medium armor, Nakh/Fritz/Soyuz?

[atomic abyss]

yes

[eternal moth]

Next META is Kawakaze right?

[viscid swift]

yes

[sweet delta]

Grenville forgotten

[forest palm]

AFCT is more forgotten tbh

[ornate narwhal]

For daily pulls should I do 3 to get the event currency or just 1 to get the cube refund

[turbid marsh]

my, you actually remembered this detail

[hushed sorrel]

isnt making a screenshot more time consuming than copy-paste? or what tool are you using?

[ivory pawn]

With Snipping Tool, making a screenshot is practically a copy/paste.

[atomic abyss]

normal windows snipping tool

[ornate narwhal]

For research i put 5 on focus but do i also specifically focus one ship?

[hushed sorrel]

thanks. i try to find more information about that :)

OpSi debuffs for getting rekt
Sinking:

• If a ship sinks, they aren't removed from your fleet but instead go to 5% HP and get a red spinning wrench. This is called Toll of War, and it disables their skills in combat. Disabled skills also includes all-out-assault.
• You can clear the skill-seal by healing at a port, or using Regroup And Rest. Out-of-combat heal items do work on skill-sealed ships, but they won't remove the skill-seal debuff.
  Losing:
• If you lose a fight, the fleet that lost gains a Low Resolve debuff that decreases its stats. Losing more fights in a row increases the magnitude of the Low Resolve debuff (max III). Depending on how you lose, you can skip directly to Low Resolve III.
• Low Resolve gives major stat debuffs. Additionally, fleets with Low Resolve III will refuse to fight bosses. They can fight mobs but be warned - they are also likely to be skill-sealed too. They might die again, immediately.
• Low Resolve can be cleared for all fleets by winning any fight with any fleet in operation siren (win = B-rank clear or higher). It can also be cleared by using Regroup And Rest. Healing at a port will not cleanse Low Resolve.
  How do I handle debuffs?
• The usual strategy in a stronghold is to save your mob fleet and not attack bosses with it. After throwing everything else you have at a boss, take your mob fleet and attack one mob. Win, even if someone sinks. This clears Low Resolve. Then go to a port and heal everyone up, which also cleanses Toll of War. Return to the stronghold and continue to maul the boss. (Stronghold progress will be saved.)
• If this is an abyssal boss, then you can't heal at port, but you can still use heal items. You won't be able to clear Toll of War without Regroup And Rest from an abyssal boss, but there are some mobs if you go around to the side that you can bully with your mob fleet to clear Low Resolve.

[deep cypress]

One year playing and it's the first time I learn about this. Wtf. Thanks, guys. 🤦‍♂️

[eternal basalt]

Toll of War does alot more than just disable skills, but NOWHERE ingame does it state that

[deep cypress]

Classic OpSi.

[eternal moth]

What UR gear should I prioritize getting more of?

[eternal basalt]

Classic "Nah, Coefficient hidden is fine" Yongshi

[atomic abyss]

another wyvern

and some twin 76 AA guns

[steady mantle]

just a check, when peopl say get lions weapn, is that the Prototype triple 406mm mk2 main gun mount?

[atomic abyss]

yes

[hushed sorrel]

its the weapon in the event shop.

[steady mantle]

thank u

i should spam the special stages till i can buy out the whole shop right?

[eternal moth]

Of the two which one first? Probably the AA since I don’t have it

[stark quiver]

buy what you need,
do d3

[atomic abyss]

i would say the AA yes

[steady mantle]

yikes im only at a3

[stark quiver]

just get to the highest stage you can

[steady mantle]

just started. okok thank u. i only realised the shop existed after someone told me from the other channel

[kind slate]

Guys can I ask what gear I should build next in gearlab? Ik there’s the bot command but I wanna know general numbers for each

[atomic abyss]

there isnt really a "general" imo
ig 3 wyverns

[kind slate]

Kk how abt the other rainbows? Like mk7, aa

[atomic abyss]

"it depends"

mk7 i'd say at least 1

maybe 2 if you dont intend to wait for lion rerun

AA prolly 3
tho you may want more

No Mk7 until you +13 your mk.ii and have enough plates for another HE gun

The priority just depends on what endgame content you want to clear first

[kind slate]

I’m close to finishing ch14.

[kind slate]

What’s mark ii

[atomic abyss]

lion gun

[kind slate]

So I would go wyvern

Then aa?

[sweet delta]

I think 2 wyverns could be enough

Where are your gold plates though

[kind slate]

where? As in I haven’t used them?

[sweet delta]

Yeah, like on AFCT

[proven fable]

wait a sec, is raffaello's SAP gun better than lion's gun?

[atomic abyss]

for med armour yes
for light, not even close

[proven fable]

[surreal coral]

Hey guys, newbie here, so i got the early summer invitation, who should i choose ?

[hollow gust]

It's pinned

[surreal coral]

thanks, didnt think to check pinned msg

[ornate narwhal]

How long would it take me to get my first PR? Bc now I can’t even unlock any of them…

[hollow gust]

People who know what they are doing can get it done in less then 3 weeks but for most I'll give it month or 2

[ornate narwhal]

For a beginner?

[weary gust]

1 day to 1 week to cdc, 1 week to do all the development goals (hard timegated), can do both of the previous in a single week, then to get dev30 depends on whether or not it can be coined and how many blueprints you buy per day. Optimally ~1 month?, but for someone with limited resources or not a lot of level 100 ships/at w12 to grind, 2-3.

[ornate narwhal]

Wait but as a beginner I don’t have enough ships to unlock any of the PR1 ships so I can’t even get there…

[sweet delta]

You can't do Saint Louis?

[ornate narwhal]

I lit have pulled 3 times… I don’t have many ships

[hollow gust]

Thats easy , there are a fuck ton of them everywhere . Guild shop has half that much already

[ornate narwhal]

I already used my guild shop to get the beginner fleet

[sweet delta]

Weren't you level 60+?

[ornate narwhal]

Are u talking about my old account?

[stark quiver]

do you.. still have access to said old account

[ornate narwhal]

No…I forgot which email I linked it to

But what should I do?

[barren barn]

Hi how to change opsi fleets

[stark quiver]

https://tenor.com/view/azur-lane-gif-25770903

[barren barn]

Ty

Is this good?

[forest palm]

it's a lot better than most that's for sure

granted you're gonna need a proper tank for your mob fleet

[hollow gust]

Do you not even have FdG

[barren barn]

Ah i have her dev 29

I will replace owari when 30

[weary gust]

No put FdG in your mob fleet instead of Belo

[forest palm]

also swap Belarus and Unicorn positions

[hollow gust]

Or just put owari in mob and move FdG into boss

[barren barn]

I ll put fdg boss ye

[weary gust]

Is FdG better for boss than Owari? Iirc Owari is quite good for gold BB.

[hollow gust]

no SR BB can match a UR BB

[weary gust]

That's in large part due to their very strong barrage, but FdG's barrage is not focused while Owari's is, so.

Although at fs5 FdG does get some focused shots.

[hollow gust]

So? FDG raw stats crushes owari

[slow fox]

-# eHP chart updated

[weary gust]

Looking at stats yeah. FdG +20% higher mg eff and ~30 more fp.

[forest palm]

Owari swings pretty close to Fred

[weary gust]

I'd still put FdG in mob fleet however, simply because FdG is better at mobbing than bossing and for strongholds you'd want FdG in the mob.

[forest palm]

since Owari the standard for SSR BBs has gone somewhat up

[stark quiver]

[hollow gust]

Owari performs just as fine in mob, why are you advocating strengthening a mob fleet over the boss

[slow fox]

-# Mobbing is getting pretty hard in this economy

[weary gust]

Because with three boss fleets in opsi you can bruteforce pretty much any bosses, while you only have 1 mob fleet generally (unless you use a leveling fleet) and so you'd want the mob fleet able to do all mobbing things and be efficient/fast.

[weak dust]

I'm familiar with the fact that you want like 204 on the stats for opsi arbiters, do stats u gain after 204 still affect things?

[dreamy blade]

No

[stark quiver]

its not 204

[weary gust]

Adaptabilities max out at 70%/70%/100% of their respective debuffs/buffs.

Whatever value that is depends on the level of the enemy in opsi, higher level enemy = need more adapts.

[weak dust]

What's the numbers for hard arbiter

[stark quiver]

203/203/153 or 156 idk

[weak dust]

... I was one off -_-

[weary gust]

That third one isn't as relevant as the first two.

[hollow gust]

Do they look like they have higher end boss fleets? for the harder harbys they will need to eek out as much damage as they can.

[weary gust]

The only time that'd matter is if they encounter a defensive immortal one that they can't out dps the under 30% heal ability, and I doubt having FdG in their boss vs their mob fleet when it fights is going to make that difference.

[slow fox]

-# Defensive immortal mentioned

[proven fable]

isnt that the one out rn???

[weary gust]

This month's harby isn't a healing one iirc

[stark quiver]

this month is more of a make a shield and blow up your vanguard one

[proven fable]

yeah

the shield cooked me 😭
it ran the clock out

[weary gust]

@slow fox Can you calculate which harbiter variant has the most ehp? And which ability combo gives each one its most ehp?

[slow fox]

-# It's Tower because I love her

[proven fable]

lmao

[slow fox]

How many battles vs allied fleets do you want me to assume?

[weary gust]

Let's go with 3.

[hollow gust]

You wont need to bust through the shield if you two shot them

[weary gust]

Or for the under 30% heal ability, *one activation for in the three battles

[forest palm]

not everyone has that luxury

[slow fox]

I'm a casul player. I usually run my Arbiter battles until timeout. I usually require 2 or 3 fleets to kill them.

[weary gust]

If that heal activates more than once it means you're screwed anyways because that means you're not outdoing it to begin with.

[stark quiver]

i never noticed they had a shield until i read the skill disc

[slow fox]

Do we have the stats for Temperance Module?

[weary gust]

Worst case the heal activates twice I guess. Once at the end of 2nd battle, again early in 3rd battle.

So we can go with two activations.

[slow fox]

Also assuming Full adapt.

[weary gust]

Yeah full adapts.

Should also assume the jellyfish summon will need to be killed before more damage is done to the arby.

Not quite accurate because of splash but auto targets the jelly.

[slow fox]

Since I don't have stats for the summon, how long does the summon module usually last? I will consider the existence of the module as a 70% damage reduction.

[weary gust]

"Arbiter: Temperance XIV is assisted by a Combat Module during battle. As long as the Combat Module persists: Temperance deals 15.0% increased DMG and takes 10.0% less DMG; when the Combat Module is destroyed: Temperance takes 10.0% increased DMG until the battle ends."

It stays until killed

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Operation_Siren#tabber-tabpanel-Arbiter:_Temperance_XIV-8

[warm trail]

hours left from maintenance?

[weary gust]

7 hours, if we are having it

[slow fox]

Does Hermit's Pluripotency module affect her HP?

[weary gust]

No. It'd affect AA and EVA which would increase ehp though

+50% hp would be an insane buff

[ocean trout]

so for opsi journey thanks to yall help
i build the fleet
did the story
finished every map tile to clear at least once
did all dalies
did arbiter normal and hard
did all strongholds
did all the map coordinates.

is there anything else i need to do now?

[whole crypt]

not much just do daily missions until reset, then it's clearing all over again

[weary gust]

Make sure you've bought all useful stuff from shop

You also still have story to do to unlock the center node and arby/harby fights.

[ocean trout]

i still have lots of ap left. can i somehow get UR stuff for gear lab? in my journey i got quite a few gold mats but UR none

[ocean trout]

what do u mean? i did arbiter in normal and hard

[weary gust]

Pop the ap crates and run c5 node on repeat. Meowfficer nodes can drop UR prints.

[sweet delta]

28k vouchers what 3 years of opsi does

[weary gust]

Oh. The screenshot makes it look like center sector is still locked.

[stark quiver]

2k ap
wish i had that, also wtf 28k

[ocean trout]

here

[weary gust]

I normally get about 14k vouchers per month

[stark quiver]

i stuck with 11k idk why

but i got all my gold platez so

[ocean trout]

it also gives the option of c6 ( assuming im on the right window)

[weary gust]

Only at 10.3k this month, guess I got unlucky with akashi run ins and daily rewards.

[whole crypt]

the middle tab, and we usually repeat c5

[weary gust]

C5 and C6 have the same expected number of meowfficer nodes but c6 costs more.

[whole crypt]

start a c5 then set it to repeat same zone

[slow fox]

I'm having a little trouble reading the skills list. Is the Skills by Month tab IN ADDITION to the skill list in the tabs?

[ocean trout]

oh ok. which settings should i use?

[weary gust]

I think those skills in the tabs are examples, because everything except their special ability (the first one) is randomized each month.

[sweet delta]

See example month https://azurlane.mrlar.dev/db/

[whole crypt]

wiki just shows current month on top, list is the monthly cycle

[slow fox]

-# Kriegsmarine Ship

[ocean trout]

merchant on or off?

auomatically exchange items on or off

[weary gust]

Secured, repeat this zone, stop for merchant (or not if you don't want to buy ap from askashi if she shows up). Do not pause when encountering construct

Do not display META coord reminders. Automatically exchange items.

[whole crypt]

at this point I'd say turn everything off and just wrap up the AP you have now

exchange items is kind of whatever

[kind slate]

What’s a more solid mob fleet for opsi? Preferably something that can clear strongholds.
I’m using uni Volga uvh rn

[weary gust]

Musashi/Uni/Independence/tank/dps/offtank

[kind slate]

rip don’t have musashi

[weary gust]

I have Laf2/Hindenberg/z52 for my mob.

[ocean trout]

thanks.
now for the future.
how do reset works? do i have to reexplore all tiles? ( aka no autoplay)

[whole crypt]

Lion/Unicorn/4 other ships

[noble tulip]

Can you even reroll ace ?

[weary gust]

Map will be dark and blank. You'll buy the oil logger for 5k oil and another logger for 1k vouchers that'll make all maps visible. Then you just get ap and set to clear explorables/hidden.

[forest palm]

you can roll into ace

[weary gust]

You'll have to manually enter strongholds, abyssal zones, and do arby/harby again.

[noble tulip]

I’ve been rerolling her for 5 months daily never seen it

Weird

[ocean trout]

what were abyssal zones again?

[whole crypt]

I've been rerolling some of my cats for years

[weary gust]

The zones with the single siren boss that isn't an arbiter.

strongholds are the red whirlpools

[forest palm]

this is why I used to work with multiple of a particular cat

[ocean trout]

ah the ones with the red icon on the overview map?

[stark quiver]

i reroll cats only to get the adrenaline rush

[weary gust]

red chest = abyssal
yellow chest = hidden
green icon = daily
red whirlpool = stronghold

[ocean trout]

ok so its not the same grind that i had to ( endure) again? thank god

[weary gust]

No, it's easier, you don't have to reclear story either.

and shops will be updated (better) now that you've had a reset.

[kind slate]

Is fdg better than uvh for mobbing opsi

[weary gust]

They're kinda the same.

[whole crypt]

you kind of made it harder than it should have been for yourself

[ocean trout]

wont the maps be exponentially harder for me if the adaptibility resets?

[sweet delta]

She's certainly faster to clear battles in real life time

[weary gust]

The 5k oil logger will give you a base amount.

[ocean trout]

why is that?

[whole crypt]

not if you gain adapts again

and it'll be harder, but if you have good fleets it won't be a lot harder

[weary gust]

You won't want to do arby/harby again immediately (I usually do them 2 weeks into the month), and you'll wait a bit on strongholds too, but you'll be able to do all explorable zones w/o any issues.

[whole crypt]

you cleared a bunch of stuff in a few days that we usually do across a month, and you wasted a lot of time repeating stuff with low yield

if you buy logger you get fronted with 90 of every adapt that's usually attached to clearing zones

and you're guaranteed at least 1 adapt node in every secured zone

getting back to 203 isn't really a problem

[ocean trout]

what is the adapt cap ? 230?

ok u just answered 203.

[whole crypt]

203 for arb, 188 for stronghold, everything else is lower

[ocean trout]

well to be honest hard abiter was not so easy. it took me 3 fleets to get it at 5 bars. and my last garbage fleet i didnt change yet could barely do 5 bars LOL

[weary gust]

Once you update your fleets with what I gave you and gear them you'll be able to do harby without issue then.

As you get better gear and can specialize vs armor type harby becomes trivial.

[ocean trout]

i hope i never have to change gear bcs that is totally not my forte. i managed to beat this current arbiter with vs heavy/med?

so i hope i can maintain that affter i finish fleet 4

[weary gust]

I never change gears on my opsi fleets. I have a mob fleet that can do strongholds, an anti-light, anti-med, and anti-heavy boss fleet.

[sharp socket]

^ this is the lazy opsi endgame

[ocean trout]

yeah i did strongholds with my mob fleet too with no issues. i just did the boss with my t1 just in case

[paper nebula]

hi is there like a one all be all Excel/Spreadsheet/doc about which ships work with which or which gears for auto or like where to farm those gears

[weary gust]

There's various guides that have each of those things in parts.

[ocean trout]

so what i have to do is change my fleet 2 or 3 gear to combat the other armor types.. well i dont know what wpn is good for what in cv.
i just know there is ap and HE for bb'S LOL

[whole crypt]

we can change/fix fleets again later

[weary gust]

BBs are easiest to swap, you just change MG and give them all the same gun. CVs are a lot more complicated.

[paper nebula]

I see where do i find it? i checked pins it doesnt have it

[weary gust]

Uh, kind of all over.

[viscid swift]

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

this would be a good place to start

this would good to start if you'ew new to the game
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips

[ocean trout]

thats i think my current fleet layout, so who is this good against?

[sharp socket]

its not very simple but heres how it goes

1. make cv fleet with slow/stopper
2. open lars calculator/whatever other calculator and mess around with planes until you get your CVs to fire really close to each other
3. profit

[weary gust]

There's also https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/home and https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Equipment_List

[viscid swift]

light primarily but

[sharp socket]

as for what planes to use

[paper nebula]

thanks im playing for a long time now ( just collecting ships) hahaha

[viscid swift]

there's a reason we have flow charts for this sort of stuff

[atomic abyss]

why light mode

[ocean trout]

so im already good? , since my bb is heavy/med i think?

[weary gust]

Because he likes being

[viscid swift]

we've been over this ender

[atomic abyss]

it's weird
nano and haku are geared for light here
but impla is geared for heavy

[weary gust]

He's just using what gear he has really, they weren't built for any specific purpose.

[atomic abyss]

frankly i would rather you make your BBs focus on anti light or med

and leave your CVs to do heavy and med

[sharp socket]

you change it depending on what armor enemy you're fighting, BBs are more flexible because they can do every armor equally fine

[ocean trout]

im using the gear someone was so kind to help me with what i had. im sure im to stupid and i missed stuff he told me

[sharp socket]

CVs have specific CVs that are better than others in different armor types

[ocean trout]

bcs the full picture is this. i just choose one of them

[sharp socket]

however they hit harder when you use them with better gear

[warped acorn]

when dmg modifier lv increases dmg does it increases reload

[viscid swift]

no

[atomic abyss]

no

otherwise it'd be rld modifier

[warped acorn]

lmao

[atomic abyss]

as expected, strength is the worst

[sharp socket]

boss ehp?

[atomic abyss]

but aug strength has more eHP than Nov?

[sweet delta]

100% misinfo

[weary gust]

Can someone link me the monthly list that has the abilities?

[sharp socket]

still measured in portlands

[atomic abyss]

well i guess you cant really account for the nov gimmicks

[slow fox]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Operation_Siren#Arbiter

I tried to account for the gimmicks as much as I could.

[atomic abyss]

i know you did, it's just a bit harder to account for nov's

cos the difficulty comes from the timing

[stark quiver]

good job mebot, i love you

[sweet delta]

Make a version that assumes all main fleet ships attack every 20s, no afct

[slow fox]

Measured in Portlands

[sweet delta]

And in particular the change damage to 1 shield should have no effect

[viscid swift]

thats a lot of Portlands

[sharp socket]

oh the previous wasnt measured in portlands

[atomic abyss]

cel....

measured in portlands would be a %age value

not a raw numerical value

[weary gust]

All ships are portlands if you think about it hard enough

[sharp socket]

i thought they were so high up that the % stopped showing

[slow fox]

-# Be careful when you kill Strength. You're dishing out enough damage to kill 3 million Portlands.

[atomic abyss]

i think 8am is too early for you to math cel

[slow fox]

ok brb

[hollow gust]

have to consider between BB amd CV attacks too

[stark quiver]

wow.

[sharp socket]

oh well nevermind 25,000 portlands in november strength is still alot of portlands

[slow fox]

✅

[warm trail]

maintenance started?

[weary gust]

The weakest Strength is still more beefy than the beefiest of any other variant.

[slow fox]

This is ~256!! Portlands
100% is 1 port

[atomic abyss]

not for like, 7h

[weary gust]

Maybe if you're on CN?

[warm trail]

[atomic abyss]

CN maint is 1h 40min

[warm trail]

CaNada

[atomic abyss]

maint is at server reset

[warm trail]

[sharp socket]

oh

[atomic abyss]

i hope you didnt mean 256 factorial

[slow fox]

I don't use the Factorial.

I only use the Gamma function.

[weary gust]

That's like more mass of portland's worth than the entire universe if it was 256!

[slow fox]

When it's every 20s, shouldn't it have an effect?

[weary gust]

Vanguard bullets eat up that counter

[slow fox]

100% guaranteed? In my experience, that shield helps mitigate even some of the Main Fleet damage.

Perhaps something like 10%

[weary gust]

Not 100% but even during slowdowns from artillery they're still usually getting hit by several bullets from vg at the time

[slow fox]

Uhh sure I guess

[weak dust]

fleet 1 is mob, fleet 2 is boss, fleet 3 and 4 is things i made with leftovers when they werent mlb
could i get some help on reconstructing these teams?
also do i start a thread for this?

The only ones not mlb there are yk2 and agir(dev 29.5)

[viscid swift]

yes, yes

[weary gust]

Izumo is dead weight

[weak dust]

ya she was placeholder

[weary gust]

The Noshi's aren't great either.

[sharp socket]

replace haku with implac, switch agir and z52, eldridge and ply, eldridge main tank

and yes take out izumo for someone else

[sinful escarp]

if you have kearsage, you can put her in a fleet with yorkii

Reconstruction of opsi fleets

[slow fox]

-# This list is NOT to be compared with the previous list. Comparisons may only be made between entries of the same list, and Portland (Retrofit).

This also doesn't assume AVI damage. So only notAA damage

[sweet delta]

How did you do the shields under 30% hp for May

[slow fox]

The hitshield, or the 50% chance shield?

-# Suchi that was an "or" question

[proven fable]

oh god, hermit sounds like she has a shield skill 😭

[slow fox]

Well, the hitshield is assumed to reduce no damage at all, because mainfleet damage goes over the shield.

So same as allied vanguard hitshields.

[proven fable]

im cooked

[ornate narwhal]

Is it worth it to farm B1 if it’s the farthest I can go? Or should I just do story

[slow fox]

Will do calcs for AA. One moment.

[weary gust]

Farm highest event chapter you can do to get points to buy the UR gun/Trafalgar/META crystal and Glormious.

[proven fable]

D3 and SP

make sure to use 2x oil consumption to double ur point yield

it also works on SP

[slow fox]

Against Carriers

[warped acorn]

what how

that 2x works on sp

[weary gust]

HELPs do not work on SP. And he can barely do B1 he cannot do SP or D3.

[proven fable]

wait im slow

nvm yeah my memory's chalked

[stark quiver]

also heclps also double morale taken, u trade more pts in x time for needing more time to wait for regen

[weary gust]

That seems ... wrong. Or is that in portland AA's?

[humble tapir]

how do you know when a fleet is auto safe (like what makes it so)

[weary gust]

Cause it lives on auto.
Good comp and gear is how you know.

[slow fox]

Raw values

[weary gust]

I only understand units of portland.

[fast skiff]

Is Cleopatra good enough to consider investing into or not really

[weary gust]

Cleopatra is very meh. And that's generous.

[fast skiff]

Ouch. Hate that but it is what it is

Fleet tech only it is then

[weary gust]

Belfast unironically better than Cleo, and we don't recommend Belfast for any reason.

[atomic abyss]

her tech isnt even good either...

[slow fox]

I just calculated the AVI damage resistances

[atomic abyss]

+2 AA

[fast skiff]

..wow lol

Poor girl can’t catch a break

[atomic abyss]

+1 HP on obtain, +2 AA for 120

only one with good tech is like, gloM

[slow fox]

eHP tech is crazy!!!!!!

[fast skiff]

Disappointing, but saves me the time and chips

[cobalt gate]

So many obtain is just hp

[weary gust]

DD HP tech isn't awful. It's pretty useless for every other hull type. Especially BB lol.

[slow fox]

Maxing out CL HP gives you a whopping 1.5% eHP IMPROVEMENT!?!?!!!!

-# Maxing out CA HP gives you a 1.8% IMPROVEMENT!

[atomic abyss]

so how much do we get from

4? 5? CA eva?

w/e was max eva

[slow fox]

4 CA EVA gives you also 1.84% improvement. I believe the devs are keeping track to distribute eHP tech between HP and EVA evenly.

[atomic abyss]

wait

4 CA/B eva gives the same eHP? wtf

[weary gust]

I sincerely doubt they have that much intention behind anything fleet tech related.

[slow fox]

It MUST be that way! The eHP matrices are diagonal!!

[slow fox]

Same eHP as 128 HP, yes.

[atomic abyss]

that's insane
truly we need more CB/A eva

[weary gust]

So anyways what's DD HP tech ehp increase?

25%?

[slow fox]

-# Remember when I said that 1.5% was HUGE?

256 DD HP gives 6%!!!

[atomic abyss]

256

[weary gust]

Only? That's like 10+% of their base HP. I guess auxes give again as much so half of that works out.

[slow fox]

Yessir

[vale spindle]

[weary gust]

So does DD EVA tech add 6% more ehp?

[slow fox]

Yep. DD EVA as well adds 6%

[weary gust]

Wait really? How much DD EVA tech is there?

[slow fox]

36

[atomic abyss]

DD HP tech... is a scam?

[vale spindle]

What is the improvement on tashkent vs ayanami

[slow fox]

I only calculated averages mutsukicap

[proven fable]

guys is it even worth having a DD in the fleet?

[atomic abyss]

wrong way to look at it

[dreamy blade]

I can buy 6 bulins and have yk2 and traf at lb1 from dupes, either of them worth to mlb? I have every UR since amagi cv at mlb

[vale spindle]

Good ship is good

[atomic abyss]

you dont look at ships based on hull types
you look at them based on their roles

[vale spindle]

Bad ship is bad
Hull is irrelevant

[atomic abyss]

there are very good DDs, albeit only a few are relevant

[weary gust]

dont count on it

[forest palm]

seems they want to drop BRS on June 5th

[proven fable]

i havent played the game since unzen

[atomic abyss]

i believe they're both backliners

so uh, not going to be too useful

[proven fable]

i missed everything until Raf

[ornate narwhal]

Which of the proto blueprints should I get?

[whole crypt]

event shop? all of them

[blissful hamlet]

new event with no ship

[ornate narwhal]

In the proto shop

[atomic abyss]

2 ships, both are obtainable without gacha...

[blissful hamlet]

free ship :god:

[whole crypt]

usually PR3/4 gear prints, for champagne gun and BFG prints, we don't recommend getting ship prints at all

[ornate narwhal]

Huh? I thought I was supposed to use the proto cores to get the gear

[whole crypt]

yes?

PR3/4 gear prints first

if you have enough then Tenrai 457 q152

[ornate narwhal]

These ones?

[polar lion]

What is white vit2 good for again?

[whole crypt]

coping the lack of wyverns

[ornate narwhal]

I only have enough to get one

[forest palm]

weaker Wyvern

[ornate narwhal]

Also how do I get more besides destroying the combat data things

[forest palm]

burning excess ship prints

[whole crypt]

you catch up with PR research and analyze excess ship prints

[ornate narwhal]

Which should I prio?

[forest palm]

the left you want 3

[hollow gust]

What??

[elfin nimbus]

Both brs are reward.

[sweet delta]

Sounds like you've manipulated them

[hollow gust]

lion can store a gun salvo, bismarck prob got blocked

[vale flicker]

just curious, what do players who have unlocked all PR ships spend their oil on

[viscid swift]

grinding tech

[warped acorn]

at mlb?

[viscid swift]

though my eventual goal is to get every ship in the game to 120

[stark quiver]

i get max tech and then retire

[zenith venture]

How do I get a promise ring

[sweet delta]

Get a ship to 100 affinity for the first time

[zenith venture]

Oh so I should have one… how do you know if you have used one on a ship?

[stark quiver]

it says oath instead of a heart

[zenith venture]

Ohhh okay ty

[weary gust]

Also the border icon of the ship in dock is pink/shiny.

[warped acorn]

how much does traf help in killing suicide boats 🤔

[sweet delta]

Not as much as Momo

[south sequoia]

Does lions barrage fire in the center regardless of position?

[warped acorn]

no wonder its not a must to be flagship

[sweet delta]

Who was the last rainbow BB to prefer flag for barrage position?

Answer: ||raffaello||

[viscid swift]

Musashi is the only one

[sweet delta]

In her first day or week

[whole crypt]

good luck it took me 7.5 years

[dreamy blade]

Yk2 traf or raff worth to mlb? I can buy 6 bulins

[sweet delta]

Traf and bisz

[twilit crow]

I did 30 pulls in wishing well and got Aquila do I still need to pull for volga (450ish cubes rn)

[dreamy blade]

Just use it for your daily pull

If you also got all the event ships

[twilit crow]

I did I got all the banner alr

[dreamy blade]

Just 1 daily pull then, can decide if you want to pull more on the last day

[twilit crow]

So I do I special pull a day and net 2 cubes a day instead of 3

makes sense ig

[dreamy blade]

Yeah since you'll still have the cubes to pity next UR if you have to

[viscid swift]

frankly if you have Aquila, Volga is just tech

[twilit crow]

oh

[stark quiver]

volga is good tech

[twilit crow]

well Ill just do 1 pull a day then

[dreamy blade]

Is it rld

[viscid swift]

hit

[stark quiver]

cv hit

[warped acorn]

does nelson barrage fire in the center regardless of position?

[sweet delta]

Aquila Volga
Aquila zuihou

[twilit crow]

oh and who to MLB I alr got lion MLB, and I got Shinano from wishing well trying to get Aquila and I have 1 traffy I can buy 4 bulins and (310/400) for perma pity so far

I got all the sp core from medal ship asw

[sharp socket]

does zuihou replace aquila if i have eld sandy z52 as front

[stark quiver]

she'll be better at healing and keeping vg alive, but has less backline heal

[sharp socket]

so aquila heals the backline alot more and uni does both?

[stark quiver]

6% compared to 8% iirc
but zuihou can replace aquila

[sharp socket]

well my front is very livable so i guess ill stick with aquila

[echo vector]

Does hard map 12 and 13 gives the same amount of META ship upgrade material ?

[fierce lantern]

do these give ur prints

[stark quiver]

they can through cat nodes

[sinful escarp]

they also give lots of resources so its bettter to do them either way

[dreamy blade]

is the twin 381 that drops from d3 good for anything

[keen sable]

Sweep the daily bonus. If you can low cost B1 dew it. Of course if you can low cost B1 you can probably do B2 so... you really should just have a realistic expectation for what you can do. If you play 30 minutes a day then daily bonus it is. If you use every drop of oil + more then math probably says push xp as efficiently as you can for another day or two.

[stark quiver]

no

[ivory pawn]

Idk if we have exact numbers, but 13 gives 2-3 in my experience so it's probably pretty similar or only slightly worse.

[wind hazel]

it can give 1

[sinful escarp]

those drop in hard mode?? i never noticed. better to just do opsi

[wind hazel]

or you know, do both

[ivory pawn]

Is slightly worse then.

[sinful escarp]

yeah

[ivory pawn]

Only just got added to 12+ last week. You wanna do hard runs anyways so...

[sinful escarp]

yeah, i just meant that if you want those mats it better to rely on opsi
doing hard is always needed

[dreamy blade]

the ones from opsi are limited tho, you cant grind for them

[finite crag]

is there a ur event rn

[strong tartan]

yes, lion and trafalgar

[finite crag]

what was the last ur event

non rerun

[stark quiver]

rafaello

[finite crag]

whats special abt lion or trafalgar

[vale spindle]

No higher gives more

[stark quiver]

lion is a part of the top bb comps now because she is good

[finite crag]

replacing who

[echo vector]

Thanks

[echo vector]

I think barrage type BBs

She's very good

[vale spindle]

Na she replaces any of them she's the new number 1 period

[finite crag]

cool thanks

[echo vector]

I like how she got many similarities with Aisaka Taiga from Toradora and Siege from Arknights.

[finite crag]

yea theyre all women

[echo vector]

Yea they got 2 eyes and 2 legs as well

[stark quiver]

soyuz prob

[finite crag]

real question not trying to bait or anything

what keeps you guys playing this game

[sweet delta]

#al-general

[finite crag]

oh god i have made a huge sin

mmy deepest apologies

if i wanted answers from the creatures in general i wouldve asked there

[inner delta]

"creature" don't be such elitis

[slow fox]

-# I wake up hoping to do eHP calcs. New girls and new skills keep me praying for the game. One day we'll reach 300% eHP.

[vale spindle]

one day you will help someone in the help channel i believe

[hybrid pelican]

So what is the best plane for kearsarge?

[whole crypt]

depends

[urban grail]

anyone has any 15-4 auto comps i can refer to

[ivory pawn]

/campaign

[odd root]

Bridal Z23

Chapter 14 Guide - https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/chapter-14-brief/
Chapter 15 Guide - https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/chapter-15

[hybrid pelican]

For each armour class?

[ivory pawn]

Suchi has some comps at the very bottom of the guide.

[stark quiver]

la9 for medium
hvar for light
flap/la9 for heavy(?)

[hybrid pelican]

Second best against light? Missed hvar

[hybrid pelican]

Is flap the fighter with bombs from the gear lab?

[stark quiver]

a lot of fighers have bombs in gear lab

[hybrid pelican]

The one that looks like a waffle

[stark quiver]

the blue flat one yes

[hybrid pelican]

Okok ty ty

[dreamy blade]

isnt the white vit2 better than barracuda or is that too niche

[wind hazel]

it's better

but also skippable most of the time

[dreamy blade]

right since ppl usually just go from cuda/helldiver to wyvern/breguet/tenrai

just wondering since i have 3 craftable in depot but i already have 2 wyverns and 3 breguets

[wind hazel]

no reason to craft it then

[gloomy epoch]

sorry if it's been asked but what event stage is usually best to grind event tokens?

[dreamy blade]

d3

[gloomy epoch]

i see, oil cost be damned?

[dreamy blade]

d3 has oil cap

[warped acorn]

fractured sea just done the req collect those rewards and leave? or beat up those mobs too

[dreamy blade]

if auto finishes then you just leave

[warped acorn]

dont have auto finish option for me lmao in fractured sea

[dreamy blade]

oh, well if the exit spawns then you can leave

[warped acorn]

alr

[dreamy blade]

double check for any cat nodes you might have missed

[gloomy epoch]

dam how did i just find out about this, thanks

[zenith heron]

So I just trolled, are Tigercats alright to use considering I crafted 5 of them and the 6 of my Flaps are reserved for the Support fleet once I ready myself for World 15?

[stark quiver]

yes
i just want you to know that these are a bit better for support
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Prototype_Carrier-Based_FW-190_G-3/R1#Type_0-0

[river junco]

tiger and flap are sidegrades of each other, mostly timing and speed diff

[whole crypt]

problem being skill needs an USS plane

not sure if bfg ends up worse without skill

[hallow mountain]

I finally got the Ryusei, should I put it in Shinano's fighter or torp slot

[whole crypt]

depends

[hallow mountain]

Well atm I only have one Ryusei

The one I'm putting on the fighter slot is the Hellcat, and Barracuda for the torp

[whole crypt]

then it's not ready for bossing just use whatever

[heavy zealot]

Hmmm how do people even clear the event EX stage 😭

[stark quiver]

ex normal?

[heavy zealot]

Idk , the one against lv125 lion

[stark quiver]

uhh, make a good tanky fleet with anti heavy loadouts

[heavy zealot]

Ahh.. prolly impossible for me rn

I get nuked quick by the time she has 99x hp left

[wind hazel]

sounds like hard EX

[whole crypt]

that's probably the hard version but normal still isn't something to sneeze at

[heavy zealot]

Theres normal?

[wind hazel]

yes...

it default to normal

[whole crypt]

the same way you toggle A1 to D3

[stark quiver]

9999 hit

[sweet delta]

Does 2+zuihou laffii work?

[whole crypt]

we can try

[lavish sage]

Is trafalgar worth the build or no?

[sweet delta]

She's free

[eternal moth]

How's Trafalgar's damage?

Who does she compare to, if known yet?

[sweet delta]

70% z52

[eternal moth]

Ok, so she'll be more useful for utility than damage. Thanks.

[sweet delta]

69% z52 take it or leave it

[viscid swift]

Not very well I must admit

[lavish sage]

So not worth the build up

[eternal moth]

I was trying to decide if it was worth giving her a ring or not.

[stark quiver]

how many +13 la9 do u hab

[sweet delta]

[viscid swift]

3

[eternal moth]

That's not what I said.

[stark quiver]

[eternal moth]

Her utility is REALLY good, so she's easily worth building

[whole crypt]

it did go down to her shields when boss was around 15%

[eternal moth]

What fight is this?

[wind hazel]

ex

[whole crypt]

ex norm

[heavy zealot]

I also get clapped by normal, ahahah

[viscid swift]

well what shitty fleet are you using

[eternal moth]

I used Shinano/AmagiCV/Imp and they had no trouble

[whole crypt]

probably levels and gear

[heavy zealot]

Idk bro 😭 i just tapped advice then went with it

[viscid swift]

I used my Hornet fleet

[wind hazel]

[buoyant mauve]

Should I start working on Felix or what pry ships?

[stark quiver]

look at this ex tryhard

[viscid swift]

didn't even bother to swap Soyuz off the SAP gun

[heavy zealot]

All atleast lv110, prolly gear issues? But damm, gear is that much?

[eternal moth]

110 isn't getting it done

[stark quiver]

you dont have a tank

[heavy zealot]

Hmmm how much would i need ;-;

[sweet delta]

you don't have damage

[whole crypt]

at least 120

[sweet delta]

With that fleet and gear, maybe level 140

[eternal moth]

Can you beat SP?

[stark quiver]

they need to beat sp to get to ex

[heavy zealot]

Yep, ez(not really ez, takes about a minute)

[eternal moth]

Oh, I was thinking they opened at the same time.
