try dropping the shell for an autoloader

pseudo hearth
#

I’m guessing UR BBs existing is why no talks about Daisen right?

viscid swift
#

pretty much

soft raft
#

yeah
like it wasnt painfully obvious enough with how many UR BBs we have

topaz smelt
#

lionbad

viscid swift
#

truly

paper walrus
#

Im guessing here the plymouth one

viscid swift
pseudo hearth
#

Honestly sort of unfortunate they don’t make the PR BBs more unique, that way there’s reasons to use them over the URs

topaz smelt
#

depends if you want another plygun

#

im quite frankly satisfied with just 1

cobalt gate
#

always q

paper walrus
#

People told me to go for a second one before moving to pr7 so thats what im doing shrug

pseudo hearth
topaz smelt
#

typical gold standard bb

worldly pewter
cobalt gate
#

hmm what am i doing wrong then

pseudo hearth
topaz smelt
#

yes

topaz smelt
#

were way past the age of barrage/shelling bbs since every bb just has a barrage now

worldly pewter
topaz smelt
#

protocore is just +1 gun

paper walrus
#

Yeah i already bought the one from the shop

worldly pewter
#

yeah usually u want 1 from research and 1 from proto

topaz smelt
#

i typically find it a mistake to buy it tho

paper walrus
#

Lol why

topaz smelt
#

id rather get 457 and tenrai first

pseudo hearth
paper walrus
#

Im gonna get them all at some point and im not in a hurry so i dont see the issue

worldly pewter
#

that is not the issue here
so basically u are finishing the first ply gun here

paper walrus
#

Yes

cobalt gate
#

i heard some people using black salvo instead of white for this meta?

worldly pewter
# paper walrus Yes

usually if u do gear focus u will end up with more prints before finishing the 2 DRs

#

so this is up to u how u want to tackle it and based on how far are u in both dev

viscid swift
topaz smelt
#

i dont think it makes significant difference anyways

cobalt gate
#

hmm i wonder what im missing then

topaz smelt
#

prob fleet tech

cobalt gate
#

backrow has everything though

topaz smelt
#

whats the fleet

cobalt gate
#

fritz alasc lion, ply aurora eld

paper walrus
worldly pewter
#

u can wait for them to be coined to finish brest if u want but it will not be until 2026

topaz smelt
#

idk lack of oaths?

worldly pewter
#

as for the balance between the gun and ply prints u are in an imbalance now

viscid swift
paper walrus
#

Well catch up is a free 150 bps so

cobalt gate
#

i guess, none of them are oathed

#

well front row all oathed

worldly pewter
paper walrus
#

No its 114 with the catch up included

#

She is dev22

worldly pewter
#

114 is around 22% of the total needed so if u want to have a somewhat balance between the 2 u want to be at 39 ply gun prints

#

that if u want to finish both of them at around the same time

cobalt gate
viscid swift
#

who's Flagship
and is Eldridge and subsequently Aurora dying before Lion and Alsace get their last salvos off

#

also, Autoloader on Alsace instead of the shell

cobalt gate
#

alsc is flagship

viscid swift
#

should be Lion, or alternatively drop Plymouth for Z52

cobalt gate
#

ok putting lion as flag then and trying it 1st

viscid swift
#

and Autoloader on Alsace instead of a shell

#

your ships aren't oathed so Alsace has no chance of getting off her 5th salvo

cobalt gate
#

then shouldn't alsace be in flag?

viscid swift
#

why

cobalt gate
#

should fire more than lion?

viscid swift
#

Plymouth's debuff won't apply for her preload

cobalt gate
#

oh

viscid swift
#

it only procs 10 seconds in

cobalt gate
#

much better

topaz smelt
#

wheres liongun? and +12 hvars are a bit of a loss

cobalt gate
#

lion gun +10

viscid swift
#

yeah didn't notice the +12 HVARs

#

that's pretty tragic

topaz smelt
#

fumo ply is sus

cobalt gate
#

i changed it to golden and hydro but still dying like at 10 sec left mark

topaz smelt
#

eld rng

cobalt gate
#

anything better survivability wise then golden?

topaz smelt
#

prob albion

cobalt gate
#

hmm then not sure what to give aurora then

viscid swift
#

you can get 2 of them

topaz smelt
#

is it in core data yet?

viscid swift
#

yes

topaz smelt
#

i havent figured out the optimal setup yet but i feel it might be pearl

#

and cope for the eld proc to keep aurora alive

cobalt gate
#

btw +13 quad vs +10 improved quad

#

oh forgot about pearl

topaz smelt
#

should still be +13 quad

cobalt gate
#

ok

#

well should be able to test tommorow some more

#

welp could not find other aviation skills...

#

found the ace but then stopped getting purple skills.... ugh

deft kettle
#

is huan ch'ang decent?

cobalt gate
#

I also found destiny for this cat @topaz smelt but destiny isn’t too useful on sub right

viscid swift
deft kettle
#

id say vittorio veneto is better though, correct?

hoary valley
#

there is a any guide for META shop and shipgirls?

cobalt gate
#

btw how much increase is lion gun vs mk7? will it allow unoath lion to finish her shots?

viscid swift
viscid swift
soft raft
cobalt gate
#

oh wow... hmm i guess i should see how much decrease from +13 to +10 then if its worth to switch to

topaz smelt
#

iirc you want it on alseggs anyways

wheat ore
#

what is the best iron blood ship i can use for this? I currently don't have any of those leveled

topaz smelt
#

whatever you have

wheat ore
#

these are my options

cobalt gate
#

i guess giving it to alsec will make it not have to use reloader?

hoary valley
deft kettle
#

is st louis the most useful ship to research on pr1?

#

plus, how do i get iron blood tech points for friedrich

soft raft

Bridal Z23

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 can also use this Fleet Tech Tracker by retropaint

deft kettle
#

is it fine if i keep researching st louis? shes like 40% done

soft raft
#

she'll at least be a good source of french tech point so sure

split gazelle
#

why is ibuki the most useful ship in PR1?

soft raft
#

her unique augment turns her into a budget Unzen

topaz smelt
#

id consider roon for the kms tech tho, but ibukis good too

deft kettle
#

they are all decent ig

topaz smelt
#

altho if you need to ask i dont think theyre in a position to be spending on augs

jovial jackal

#

How good is Warspite's augment?

#

It seems like it gives her a second barrage, and might fix the targetting issues, but I'm not sure

topaz smelt
#

its not hard, its just not worth the coins until you get to w12

Oh I need to replace my whole back line tho (they’re maxed on exp)

do you really though?
I doubt you're in a position to replace your ships yet, just keep investing limit breaks on them

brisk dragon

topaz smelt
#

Since when have cats crossfleet

eternal basalt
#

Yeeeeeears ago

topaz smelt
#

They've never have in any of my testing during the time I wrote my guide and speedran cm

#

There was that 1 time apparently CN bugged to have it crossfleet and we never got that bug

Wouldnt be surprised if they broke it again

#

On the topic of new augments however, is Strasser now a reliable stop?

jovial fox
#

Any suggestions on some good tanks from Royal Navy, Iris, and Vichy factions?

slow fox
soft raft
#

I think he mean the Albion exercise report

weary gust
#

Albion report is 5% eva rate and 120 hp vs hydraulic steering which is 40 eva (or 49 at +13). Idk offhand how much eva rate +40-49 corresponds to but for CLs/CAs I'd expect more than 5%. You could use both, but again there's other EVA stuff like Beaver Badge, Kicks, Ice Bomb, etc that give close to as much. For DDs the albion report might be better since it gives some HP and a flat rate increase.

viscid swift
slow fox
#

I don't remember the result of the calc for DDs, but I'd assume it's better on DDs.

whole crypt
weary gust
slow fox
#

oh yes that's right it's Albion report

jovial fox
viscid swift
#

well usual disclaimer that faction fleets are self imposed handi caps

#

and even in a faction fleet I wouldn't use King George V

little tree
#

~~ faction fleets hardly make it past W13 if im correct~~

viscid swift
#

still also still don't know what you have access to

weary gust
# little tree ~~ faction fleets hardly make it past W13 if im correct~~

Any random collection of ships that are max level with good gear can stomp w13 so long as they're not tempestas or have basically no AA. W14 you could do with faction fleets pretty easily too. W15 would be a struggle. Regardless, faction fleets are severely limiting your potential fleet strength because you're not using all available ships in the game as options.

jovial fox
#

I know it's limiting/sub optimal. I just want to use these fleets to grind out better ships in the long run for sure. My collection is limited and I've invested a good amount into what im running with, im just struggling with my front line surviving at times

viscid swift

for example this is my current farming fleet in 12-1

What German ships are good? Like in terms of easy to get ones?

forest palm

I'm almost done leveling BRS and DM then it's back to no main fleet ShiWoke

weary gust
#

The PR/DR ones are all decent and permanently available. Wolfpack subs. Beyond that they're mostly locked behind events.

viscid swift
#

I think I'll bank 3 million XP on the DDGs if they don't steal MvP

weary gust

I've been out of mainfleets to level for so long I've started reusing them all until they have exp to go to 125

when all you have is shitters you'll think less of mvp control ShiSleep

Azur Lane Wiki

Fleet Technology is a system that allows you to gather permanent stat bonuses for Max Limit Break ships. In addition, it is used to unlock requirements for Shipyard ships.
There are 2 main systems within this menu:

Direct Stat Bonuses - These are bonuses from individual ship investment, that target individual hull types.

I remember some people saying it made her a better AvP on paper last night

topaz smelt

prob a sidegrade

hollow gust

the issue have always been the damage and the timing

Strasser'll be less of a pain in the ass to gear than August that's for sure

getting her tho

to get*

#

more of a pain in the ass to get her

forest palm
#

Ya but we're not talking about availability

topaz smelt
#

i feel like her aug was pretty predictable

wind hazel
#

why aren't we? then everyone would be looking only at Implacable

topaz smelt

there might be an issue of her being too fast tho

ye but thats usually at the cost of something else

prinz eugen is better than portland 10 out of 10 of the time based on performance, but which one do you recommend in the end? same logic

so you make an offhand comment, i reply back with another, you pedal back and say it's the viability discussion, yet you have yet to give an answer. so what now???

that for Kawa META?

Its a good fleet, but, uh, what if, like, say for example

topaz smelt

I dont have Eldridge's stuff to yk, make her UR

at this point just post your dock in a thread

then ripbozo just 2 shot

do you have raf?

ok ykw, can I just say I have basically every shipgirl in the game besides Eldridge

topaz smelt
#

tbh i think ply is better than z52

#

alternatively you can try your luck with helena

forest palm
#

52 is a nice option to have though

sweet delta
#

Then you just replace Eldridge with Napoli and pray. Left for max oaths and rld tech, otherwise right

napoli dies, wouldnt trust that shit

upper jay

I didn’t knew it existed cuz I didn’t even open the event

topaz smelt

napoli + laffii dies

upper jay

Ok? Use the better Eldridge

upper jay

again, I did not know which event I missed

  2. At end game should I make 6 fleets? Like 1 for each ammo type (heavy,normal, light) and boss/mob? and like make slight changes depended on the stage?

core data, research

#

you only need 2 for campaign and upto 4 for opsi

No, you just have a pool of commonly used ships and make 1 or 2 fleets for the specific content

among other things you can just whale that

Probably buying cog is better but I buy skin

whole crypt

cubing is only to see how fast you can push to finish new ships with new series, balanced/gear focus is more useful

faint cloud

it just took me 1k cubes to speedrun the pr7 gold ships, not even enough for drPortDoll

vital quest
#

just reached max storage of special gear in my depot, is there any way I can remove the blue grade ones?

ivory pawn
#

Yeah, go level a purple/gold one with them.

viscid swift

or stick them on ship you're not using

vital quest

aight bet, realistically though there should be a way to just get rid of them imo

twilit crow

How many prints does a 5 hr d give compared to 2.5 hr d

#

Like guaranteed

sweet delta
#

2 vs 1 of the ship's bp

so it's okay to take the 5 hr if you're not sure you can get another 2.5 hr to queue in a row

south sequoia

Anyone ran tests for avp vs peter now?

topaz smelt

imo theyre pretty similar

peters kinda awkward due to her speed tho

south sequoia
topaz smelt

too fast

forest palm
#

even with CV Manjuu?

south sequoia
#

Oh

topaz smelt
#

shes got like 40 rld over most cvs

#

its workable just awkward

#

theres also the case of whether vits hit for her stop

#

if they dont hit, it makes things even more awkward

forest palm
#

is the CC not on strike?

vale spindle
#

Stop is applied upon button press

#

and cause of 3s duration shes probably gonna have to be middle

topaz smelt
#

ye but the window for herself is shorter than the other stops

#

i tihnk she has to go last

vale spindle
#

if she goed last the first cv might miss and if she goes second the last cv might miss and if she goes first the last cv definitely misses xd

topaz smelt
#

if its tight i tihnk its fine since its an insta stop

vale spindle
#

hmmge

topaz smelt
#

but last idk if the flight time is fast enough to make the 2.x seconds

steady onyx

why is lion getting outdamaged by bismarck in meta fight isn't she the best HE dps

sweet delta

Idk maybe your lion has rld issues or any number of problems

cuz mvp screen is fake

Rigged fight

looking at end screen damage as an end-all without any context, buff standardization, variance minimization, etc is also stupid

sweet delta
paper ore

which shell should I remove on lion to get a 4th salvo off

rapid grail
# shell willow how is warspite aug?

pretty good; adds 2 barrages. however the 2nd barrage is contingent on the 1st barrage hitting because the 1st one can miss due to eva/eva rate (idk which)

now comparable to NJ and FdG in practice, damage-wise.

paper ore

the yellow one or the black one or remove both and run fire control radar with autoloader

does yk2 require d30 kearsarge to work

also is there a retire/exp usage guide for which ships are worth to keep

kinda not really

why not her over nano then

topaz smelt

you have avp shinano haku for the standard ijn fleet

fast steppe

ic

topaz smelt

non d30 kear is kinda weak and the fleet is kinda weak on heavy

the choice is prob gonna depend on what gear you have available and upgraded

not that consistent tho

pushing content? they suck

yeah for pushing content I guess. Just finished Daisen but only had enough to get her to Dev 20. Gonna be awhile then before she sees use

Keep in mind the dev system is the equivalent of limit breaks (and enhancements) and D10/20/30 is 1*/2*/MLB respectively

And non MLB ships are missing large chunks of their kit

yeah that's why I was checking in case it was dif for PR ships.

just use 76

no alsace or bis zwei either

#

im waiting 18 hours minimum before i can keep going

that's why we recommend 1 extra dorm slot + 2nd floor

wind hazel

yes early game you will have to make do with only minimal slots

stark quiver

early game just fucking sucks unfortunately, it gets better

buy the 3rd slot now, the rest will have to cover 20morale per hour, and up to 119 only

#

Okay, I took BisZ gear off and put onto Alsace but forgot to actually switch her out but yeah Aurora seems to work a lot better, so with an actual 3rd ship with gear this should be fine

Increased Fritz damage by almost 25%, is her hit that low or something?

Nope

I am using Eldridge... Just forgot how the heck this stage works....

#

It will take a long time for me to able to do chap9 because of level restriction

polar linden
#

Does chap9 really have restrictions?

atomic abyss
#

Commander level

polar linden
#

Never really heard of such restrictions

atomic abyss
#

They've always been there

#

Since 2018

#

Perhaps it's not an issue to individuals who stopped campaign to grind events

#

Thus increasing the cmdr level

polar linden
#

Ah yeah maybe that's why

elfin hollow
#

It was so easy to beat chap 7 but i cant even do chap 8 restrictions are making me sad

#

I feel like im wasting oil

# deft kettle is this banner worth it or should i save up for next event?

they are way to many different ships in the permanent pool. its name is "special" but it isnt special at all. it means the ship type is "special".
you shouldnt if you got a small amout of cubes. at the very least try to safe 400 before you do any fun pulls. you need 400 in the worst case in any event banner

#

If you don't have any war archive keys then foxmine is the answer

wind hazel
#

no

#

then you just grind at highest stage. foxmine is shit

fleet berry
polar linden
#

No Foxes?

atomic abyss
#

Considering

#

That commander level exp is related to the level of the map...

hoary valley
#

which ship is best in pr2?

deft kettle
tropic parcel
#

double hvars on fritz for the meta fight?

rapid grail
# deft kettle any ship to replace?

make thread, continue there
anyways, one change would be removing helena and using your starter DD instead. From the looks of it, your Laffey
another change is the frontliner's positions: Portland tank, starter DD/Helena mid, Scylla offtank

What ship should i replace?

fleet berry
south sequoia
#

Does Lion's DoT have its own unique tag?

wind oxide
#

Ye

atomic abyss
#

Yes

south sequoia
#

It is still under the dot umbrella though right

#

have we ever had any ships that directly reduced DoT damage?

hollow gust
#

her burn isnt affected by any burn damage reduction

south sequoia
#

nono I meant like ships who have reduced DoT as a whole

#

anything under the umbrella, flooding, burns, special burns

#

we haven't yet right?

storm olive
#

if its not affected by generic damage resistance then i doubt it would be affected by a dot specific one ShiWoke

atomic abyss
#

I have a feeling there was

#

But even if there was it most likely wouldn't block lion's in particular

hollow gust
#

you know practically no ship in the game can reduce her burn right? not even musashi

south sequoia
#

man lion just fucks the games rules

hollow gust
#

that pos burn is like true damage

storm olive
#

the only way to avoid it is invulnerability states
