mumu12 rec
my pc is 8gb ram but made it work w/ 3 gb of ram

[wind hazel]

probably got to do with the 64bit vs android 13 thing

[silk sphinx]

i was using ldplayer before, but nowadays for some reason it frequently freezes on AL

specifically during combat, I'll try out mumu

[onyx flame]

i give mumu a try after i do up my other stuff

[silk sphinx]

Mori you had similar issues or no?

[rapid grail]

back when pvp exercises froze for me i immediately dumped ldplayer

[wind hazel]

yeah freezing issues

[sharp delta]

Day 7 reward

[wind hazel]

during loading screen, or during pvp

[bright glen]

Thanks.

[tropic tusk]

It freeze every here n there

[silk sphinx]

also I heard about some twitter campaign for gems, there one rn?

[manic spear]

amazing skins

[rapid grail]

10 more days

[tropic tusk]

Wasn't like this half a year ago

[undone zinc]

SHOULD I PULL FOR THIS EVENT BANNER?

[sharp delta]

Sounds like i will have to do testing on the mini game to find out myself

[wind hazel]

depends on cubes

[tropic tusk]

U can just go in n leave

[undone zinc]

300

[silk sphinx]

how many cubes you got, how new you are... because in a game in which there are now URs and UR reruns, a gold ship only banner isn't all that interesting fleet wise

[wind hazel]

can try 1 or 2 a day, that's about it

[undone zinc]

okay

[tropic tusk]

At least 1 per day for daily missions

[silk sphinx]

i mean that's just standard. anyways. basically fyi there'll be two more UR events this year, one soon too next month

plus UR reruns, guessing there'll be one/two idk

[onyx flame]

mah cubes

[sharp delta]

Good to know... but i am aiming for the leader board which i am already 1st on... just wanted to make sure its several minutes long.

[tropic tusk]

Wht 1st

[silk sphinx]

isn't the minigame basically a test of patience?

[sharp delta]

1st on the leader board

[silk sphinx]

you get one +1hp on success, -1hp on failure. 50% success rate means the game never ends

just mash one button and you'll stay alive the entire game and get infinite score basically

[ripe peak]

whats the likelihood of painleve rerunning soon? i wanna get her l2d skin

[tropic tusk]

Oh that one is like different for all people

[sharp delta]

Ye more or less what I did

[wind hazel]

very soonTM

[sharp delta]

At the end i packed the box and was wondering if that ended the game or there was a time limit

[obtuse island]

the leaderboard is based on your guild

[hushed sorrel]

like all minigames a completly can be played. if you die early or whatever the game doesnt force the player to actually play it

[sharp delta]

Oh...

[hollow viper]

I'm running very low on money. How do I earn more.

[ripe peak]

do you have a possible estimate? like soon as in the next 2 months or?

[tropic tusk]

Also alot of ppl won't care for highscore in mini game

[hushed sorrel]

maybe you got some in the storage if not 12-4 is the usual grind map for gold

[silk sphinx]

like always, you can quit with essentially zero score with all the benefits anyways

[hollow viper]

Oh I've only really started 4

[silk sphinx]

the difference is though some games have some challenge, the only thing scoring in this minigame relies on is patience

[wind hazel]

it's the next major event to rerun iirc, but can't predict dev. sometimes they switch event around, but it was 2023's anniversary, so it's already 2year since and it will rerun soon

[hushed sorrel]

in that case play the event. you gain event currency and co

[ripe peak]

thank you 🫂 hopefully its not before JP anni 😓

[sharp delta]

[wind hazel]

dont jinx it bud

[candid yarrow]

are all the w15 maps similar in clearing or vastly different? i might speedrun it before the anni event is over

[ripe peak]

im running incredibly low on cubes i unfortunately got massena at around 264 pulls lol

[muted crescent]

Uhh for Wishing Well do I just pull on it or do I not bother?

I’d go this cuz I want Perseus, Shinano I’ll get fast enough I think

[tropic tusk]

Truth is hard

[ripe peak]

perseus being upside down lol.

[candid yarrow]

theyre always permanently there so i wouldnt go for it, focus on the limiteds first

[wind hazel]

2 3 and 4 are pretty different.
2 has nuke boss, you wanna put evasion aux on your backline
3 has 2 bosses, 4 has 3 bosses, both have superCV node

you can read more on suchiguma's guide under /guide

[hollow viper]

is the x3 on event normal stages a limit or multiplier

[muted crescent]

Welp I’m gonna have to wait for guide on the ships but lowkey I want to save for URs

[hushed sorrel]

you gain 3x rewards. its one time per day/stage only
after that you gain normal rewards. so its a multiplier

[remote yarrow]

Do you have more than 400 cubes for the September UR and will you have enough after pulling? If not, don't bother with it and set it to light and do 1 daily build

[hollow viper]

thanks

[candid yarrow]

and theres multiple bosses as well huh

[hushed sorrel]

indeed and they came with a debuff which makes the stages a bit harder.
https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/chapter-15 is the complete wiki for chap 15

[eternal grove]

when will the next UR ship event drop?

[remote yarrow]

Supposedly somewhere around September

Based on past years

[vernal osprey]

Ok can anyone help me? My l2d are not loading in

[candid yarrow]

oh god i have to build more fleets

i dont want to think 💔

[eternal grove]

So better not overcommit too many cubes then urgh

[hushed sorrel]

https://discord.com/channels/456397991847395339/488684387932700672 you will most likely gain help there

[remote yarrow]

Is your Emulator 64 bits, did you give it enough RAM? Is it either BlueStacks or Mumu? (most stable) If yes and you still got problems #tech-support

[vernal osprey]

Everything yes, RAM 4(the most amount of RAM available), bluestacks

[wind oxide]

Ultra sex's good combination fleets?

[tropic tusk]

No one even owns it yet

[remote yarrow]

ppl can't even test her yet

[silk sphinx]

nobody owns her yet but according to suchi she's good for light

pure stats wise apparently she's top of the pack by 50 AVI and 7 rld or something

med/heavy other comps can still be better.

[wispy cosmos]

is there a skin guide for boys below yet

[viscid swift]

Belleau Wood?

[wind hazel]

found anchorage one in the wild, multiple post https://x.com/sola_w8/status/1955991594815119595

although i have to admit i dont know what boys below meant

[wind oxide]

boys below boys bottom who knows

[remote yarrow]

Guess it's a word play or something with Bois Belleau's name

[wind hazel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhWZ_s7mffQ this i guess

[tropic tusk]

Isn't it more fun the find those urself

[agile patrol]

hi i have 900 gems
do i dump them all into dock space? i have 4 dorm slots, 2nd floor, and 2 skill upgrade slots

[tropic tusk]

Dock space is always good imo

[agile patrol]

thanks!!

[wind hazel]

is the minigame endless?

[hollow gust]

skill upgrade slots are extremly useless

[agile patrol]

it seems to be
i got to around 70k score and exited early bec. the song started looping

It started looping at around 50k score?

[silk sphinx]

i passed six digits then ditched

[wind hazel]

same, 111k and ditched

[silk sphinx]

literally just mashing one button means you survive indefinitely

[agile patrol]

not me who played it like a serious rhythm game 💔

[fathom crag]

Confirmed sekai player

[agile patrol]

shhhh

[fathom crag]

Proseka

[little tree]

Im assuming the limited ships are pure collection only ?

[empty bloom]

Best place to grind coins? I need A LOT

[manic spear]

What’s the guild tech leveling criteria

[inner delta]

w12 above

[empty bloom]

Oof I can barely beat 10 right now

[tropic tusk]

Event

[hollow gust]

shoulve farmed coins beforehand

[manic spear]

Idk if this counts as a lot but I go to passionate polaris t5 stage and use the high efficiency plan which gives 1k a run

[wind hazel]

better farm at event

[silk sphinx]

if you need coins urgently do 13-4 or something, or 12-4 with nubuilt ships

depends on how much you can farm, since most of the time you can ditch the event relatively soon depending on how much time you have to play

[inner delta]

he barely can do 10

not alone 13

[silk sphinx]

nvm didnt read. bye

[jovial briar]

What to do with her?

[tame orchid]

should i pull for the ships rn or is there a ur coming soon? i have 300 cubes

[glossy granite]

This new shop is so weird for me 😭

[jovial briar]

Already got the skin cause she seggsy asf

[jovial briar]

I'm level 25😵‍💫😵‍💫

[remote yarrow]

https://azurlaneecgc.com/newbie_tips probably read this if you haven't yet

[glossy granite]

Should i pick Essex on wishing well even if she will come on invitation? I need Aquila anyways

[shy oracle]

Any of the event stages got oil cap?

[remote yarrow]

Check pins for Wishing Well picks but it also depends if you'll have enough cubes for the September UR

[glossy granite]

I got 507 or something atm

[wild sinew]

mecklenburg wing slash barrage does it also based on her FP stat as well?

[glossy granite]

I wont spend that much but the chance of getting Aquila

[rapid summit]

What to do with the planes and stuff coming at me in world 10?

[glossy granite]

Out of the 4 i have Volga and Peter Strasser

[wind hazel]

https://azurlane.mrlar.dev/db/barrages/id/19890

[hollow gust]

ignore planes, just use a good CL gun on your BB

[remote yarrow]

Most likely T6 and HT6

[clever valley]

do you have San Diego?

shes 80 medals in the cl shop if you dont

[remote yarrow]

Medal shop is server dependant, but hey as long as they aren't from Avrora or Amagi they should have it

[clever valley]

ah did not know that

[glossy granite]

Alr i will pick Aquila and Essex then

[candid yarrow]

what should i change for each w15 chapter? im aware theres a lot of converging but im not sure what to swap for since i only have 3 wyverns and thats also the only one ive heard good things about for campaign

[south sequoia]

Do we know essex barrage numbers?

[hollow gust]

read the guide, you will do better copying the comp then those compotitions

[hollow viper]

Are there any particular tips on how to spend gems. I've very tempted to buy the limited build supplies pack

[remote yarrow]

#bot-spam /gems

[rapid summit]

No

[hollow gust]

spending gems should only be 2nd floor and then all dock space
buying gems 2x gems is by far the best

[rapid summit]

I got this

[hollow gust]

thats a anti aircraft gun not light cruiser gun

[rapid summit]

…

[olive pagoda]

with the new shop layout, how do you find which skins you owned now

nvm, i saw it, i'm blind

[hollow viper]

does the 2x gems cost money?

[hollow gust]

well yeah? you are spending money for ingame currency

[errant fog]

If only it doesn't

[deft kettle]

who should i wish for?

[patent thunder]

pls

[hollow gust]

pinned, but def not those URs

[patent thunder]

honestly its not worth it, using the wishing well

[errant fog]

did they revamped wishing well? Cuz iirc it's not that well in wishing properly

[deft kettle]

oh

[wild sinew]

better off pull in event build, heck there even a chance u might get UR there as well

[patent thunder]

save your pulls on the banners not the wishing well

[deft kettle]

what should i focus on during this anniversary? cuz idk what i should focus on

[wild sinew]

do event, farm pts, buy stuff in event shop

[spark patio]

what does wishing well do?

[silk sphinx]

? Wishing well is just if you specifically want a perma ship, and tbh at this point it’s mostly for long time collectors who have missed out on specific perma ships

[errant fog]

getting women ingame

[wind hazel]

rate up on selected ships

[deft kettle]

aight

are the event ships only worth it as waifus

[hollow gust]

ibuki and 99% of frontline ships have AA guns..

[storm olive]

I think they are talking about the generic ghost secondary that like every ship that isn't a DD has

[deft kettle]

cuz if there is gonna be a new ur or smth special next month then im saving up

[remote yarrow]

Some are better than other Gold options but nothing that you must pull for, if you don't have much cubes it's better to save for the September UR

[inner delta]

you dont need to think about ghost gun, you cant change it

[deft kettle]

alright im saving up, i dont think its worth using 40 cubes while im in need of ultra rares, ill make sure that i get the new ur next month then

[hollow viper]

How good is warspite

[plain saffron]

prob bcs the dmg is irrelevant mostly

[wild sinew]

unless ur a collector

[remote yarrow]

Pre retro? Awful
Post retro + augment pretty good

[little tree]

Ww is useful only if you don't have volga ir aquila imo

[inner delta]

they dont

[wild sinew]

aa gun only shoot planes when enemy plane is near ur vg

[remote yarrow]

Anti Air Gun Shoot planes

-# Then why would they shoot at warships

[plain saffron]

bcs shoubakkaku are talking about the ghost 2ndary gun, but greyghost talks about AA gun
that's why shoubakkaku asked when do AA gun shoots warship

[forest palm]

410 T3S would like to have a word

[plain saffron]

idk why you deleted it, you're not in the wrong

[candid yarrow]

can you make more hedgehogs or are you stuck with only 1 until they add another way to get them>

[plain saffron]

people just misunderstood

[wind hazel]

ok then, keep your secrets

[remote yarrow]

Just one and that's it

[plain saffron]

why did they add more scrolling texts in shop

[robust nymph]

wait what am i missing?

[wild sinew]

the new shop layout is too bright ><

[hollow gust]

you need to beat hard mode

[inner delta]

you didnt click the hardmode on the stage itself

change it

[robust nymph]

oh its on the stage, weird

[hollow gust]

just click t6 and swap to hard

[robust nymph]

should i do also t1 to t5 hard

[hollow gust]

nah

[wind hazel]

no, just HT6

[wild sinew]

obviously

[plain saffron]

i don't think it'sthat obvious

[inner delta]

it is not obvious

[wild sinew]

i was too late to delete @@

[candid yarrow]

actually is spearfish even good at all? i remember some people mentioning it was a wyvern sidegrade but without intercept and rockets instead

[wind hazel]

obviously incorrect

[plain saffron]

obviously

[wild sinew]

since i alaways do everything in hard mode and completely ignore normal mode

[inner delta]

its can be useful in some cases

[robust nymph]

wait huh now im confused on who was sarcastic and who wasnt lol

[glossy granite]

Do you have to beat normal mode first?

[wind hazel]

do HT6

[remote yarrow]

Do HT6

[tame orchid]

should i wait for UR or pull rn? i have 300 cubes

[plain saffron]

T6 -> Hard mode

[plain saffron]

do you have anyone you want?

[wind hazel]

imo just do wishing well Light 1 daily, save for UR

you can gamba on banner if you want, it's still enough to guarantee 400 by sept UR

but not more than 1 or 2 a day

[forest palm]

unless you're a collector it's better to ignore this event banners, and I doubt you're in any position to be a tech hunter

[tame orchid]

eh, not really

[candid yarrow]

i rarely see anyone mention it or use it in meta comps

[silk helm]

i spent all my cubes on pr8 🤡

[tame orchid]

aight thanks

[hollow viper]

How good is Massena?

[inner delta]

its more for campaign so far

but its not needed at all

[forest palm]

Spearfish falls off in late campaign honestly because of the content preferring the Wyvern's secondary ability

[robust nymph]

is this enough for mobbing

[silk helm]

ur missing 3 ships

[robust nymph]

whoops need a dd

[wind hazel]

i'd just use unicorn

just need to fulfil 1 each

[remote yarrow]

It's pretty good but it's cost (T3 Ords) is higher when compared to Wyvern (UR Designs)

[robust nymph]

like this? im leveling eagle union vanguards

[hollow gust]

it sacrifices anti air for more damage and faster firing. the only problem with it is its ludicrously expensive

[hollow gust]

you dont need to fill every postion , only 1 from main, one from vanguard

[wind hazel]

first clear, just use uni+laffey

go as cheap as possible, oil cap afterwards, you can put whatever EU you want

[forest palm]

the Wyvern itself isn't cheap either, it's just there's a shortcut you can buy in the Core Shop for creating one

[robust nymph]

separate fleet for boss? or same

[wind hazel]

i guess? if your gear isn't strong enough

or ships

[robust nymph]

+10 gold stuff

[wild sinew]

after 1st clear bring full fleet to raise all 6 girl u want and leave it auto 3 x run

[wind hazel]

just make a solid boss fleet, just in case

[robust nymph]

wdym ships theyre enhanced to max lol and abilities too

okie

[hollow gust]

cause sandy isnt no plymouth z52

[robust nymph]

damn missing FP and eva

[wind hazel]

just stack on boss fleet

[glossy granite]

So best fleet for Essex is with Yorki2 and Kearsarge?

[wild sinew]

sandy is more a fly swatter

[small linden]

Alsace can be used in either mob or boss fleet correct? I've really only used her in boss, but I'm trying to finish unlocking Bayard. I was going to use a small french fleet for the event maps after i clear them since I'm only doing hard mode maps.

[wild sinew]

alsace can be in both boss or mob fleet

[small linden]

Thank you very much.

[wind hazel]

any ship that can boss, can mob. but not vice versa

[hollow gust]

ShitVH,common ship after 5 rounds

[toxic harness]

I'm not sure which UR to pick for my selection. New Jersey, Ulrich, or Vanguard. I already have the others and have read their skills but am unsure which would be better.

[wind hazel]

is shinano mlb?
no>get shinano
yes>get vanguard

[hollow gust]

max shinano then get vanguard

[clever valley]

what should be my skill lvl priority for duqu and massena?

[wild sinew]

um just raise all their skill
there no priority

[sweet delta]

Is Bayard the highest DPS CL?

[clever valley]

kk

[toxic harness]

Yeah shinano was my first MLB thanks.

[wind hazel]

what does the number look like against plymouth

[remote yarrow]

Idk about using Dunkerque META as a new player if that's what you mean by Duqu

[clever valley]

no the new dusky skinned warship her names a hassle to spell

[wind hazel]

duquesne

[obtuse island]

man where do you see all this memory stuff

[wind hazel]

press bottom left

[clever valley]

yah that one

[obtuse island]

oh thanks

also do any of you know if roon's oath skin is dynamic

[remote yarrow]

is she even good

[sweet delta]

New Purple ships are basically guaranteed to be not good, but if you want to use her, then level the skills in any order

[wind hazel]

i suggest just forgetting about duqu for now elite trash

[clever valley]

ah kk

[wild sinew]

not all purple ship are trash tho

some are ssr or ur tier

[wind hazel]

name one from recent years

[remote yarrow]

Amagi chan

[glossy granite]

The chinese have good retrofits

[manic spear]

Guys for the dorm mission in the handbook it says increase comfort to 50 when I have 100+ and it still doesn’t say the quest is completed

[hollow gust]

hamman was like our most recent good elite

and she dies from a stray fart

[remote yarrow]

And her original release was like 2.5 years ago

[wind hazel]

yes my mother's fart can be quite powerful

[toxic harness]

Yat Sen has been doing pretty well for me after Retrofit

[spark patio]

try clear all the furnitures and replace them

[wary skiff]

can u get essex from this event?

[hollow gust]

essex can be obtained in invitation

[wary skiff]

cool ty

[vale spindle]

Its in the pins btw too

[wind hazel]

"check pin" in the future

[sterile jolt]

"Discord issue"

Need more arrows

[vale spindle]

<@&472236072743600148> this didn't get pinned yet so can you unpin the event then pin this then pin the event back on top k thx

[vale spindle]

Wrong pin

This is the event pin

[vale spindle]

Thanks

[inner delta]

did you fukin change

[pastel owl]

Just woke up, sorry

[inner delta]

i swear 100% i already pinned everything

[vale spindle]

The 7th anniversary invitation one didn't get pinned

Idk what happened

There's now an extra pin go fix it

[cobalt gate]

welp i feel like new shop is a downgrade

[inner delta]

the fuk sam, sam pls

[vale spindle]

It's good now

maybe if i had mod powers without having to do mod things it would be easier

[agile patrol]

is D3 HT6?
like. T1->T3 = A
T4 -> T6 = B
HT1 -> HT3 = C
HT4 -> HT6 = D?

[vale spindle]

yes

[cobalt gate]

i wonder if i'm missing any medals

[agile patrol]

why am i so smart

[inner delta]

well go pass the exam

[pure python]

Anyone know where to get Essex's retrofit special item ?

[viscid swift]

mini game, day 7

[novel solstice]

Wait, how do you get the memories screen to sshow you the medals earned?

[wind hazel]

last page of your anni profile

[novel solstice]

Oh, I didn't realize there were multiple pages there. Neat.

[forest palm]

another case of just press buttons an figure it out

[novel solstice]

On this server we don't read, and we don't see buttons on the screen!

[eternal basalt]

Maybbe we need to replace buttonts with tits and people will notice

[wraith knoll]

any CA's that i should catch up on

[forest palm]

dare to dream

[spark patio]

[forest palm]

Goden, Anchor, and Napoli are the only worthwhile CAs off the top of my head

[wraith knoll]

how bout dem cb's

[wraith knoll]

oh shiet i meant from this wishin well

[forest palm]

even then you're looking at collection more than anythin else

[eternal basalt]

Which do you miss?

[wraith knoll]

i was thinkihnig about going for san fran

[wraith knoll]

do u think san fran is ok

[stable badger]

the heck happened to the munitions shop?

[wraith knoll]

it got minimized to the point you have to look for it under a microscope

[eternal basalt]

EN anniversary happened

[random sonnet]

Is prinz Heinrich good

[distant mulch]

Are the gold ships used to evolve stars easy to get?

[eternal basalt]

1 a week, and some event rewards... pvp merit reward

[distant mulch]

I wanna go for collection and try to get every ship but chasing dupes seem eh

[robust nymph]

enough for sp?

[eternal basalt]

Don't pull for dupes

Remember you need 400 cubes within a month

[viscid swift]

she's okay

[distant mulch]

Why do we need 400 a month?

[wraith knoll]

for pity

[distant mulch]

Oh

[viscid swift]

the JP Anni event is next month, it will almost certainly be a UR event and you need 400 cubes to gurantee pity

[eternal basalt]

UR next banner

[hushed sorrel]

thats the worst possible amount you could need for ur pity. its not 400 a month its less

we dont get so many urs

[robust nymph]

also in SP i dont have to kill all targets right? Should i go for the red knights or

[distant mulch]

So I shouldn’t go for collection until I have all ur?

[eternal basalt]

They are the elites

[hushed sorrel]

yes go for the boss as soon as possible. i dont know if the red knights give better mob rewards

[low juniper]

Where's that website where you can make fleets with gear setups

[eternal basalt]

They do

[wind hazel]

https://renhex.github.io/AzurLaneFleet/

[manic spear]

should I replace someone with sandy or nah

[low juniper]

I wanna show the fleets I have for 3*ing W14 and some of W15 if possible and I don't know if what I have is good

[hushed sorrel]

please do that in a thread

[wind hazel]

is your sandiego mlb and lv100?

[manic spear]

mlb not lv100 yet though

im trying to get lv100

[wind hazel]

if she has augment, you can put her in if you wanna level her, leave z23 for 2nd fleet or something

or you can also leave sandy for 2nd fleet, if you have one

[manic spear]

Oh ok

[brazen oracle]

Does the double resource plan also provide double the affinity when used?

[red hawk]

can you oath collab ships? does it have a skin for it like the others?

[eternal basalt]

Yes, no
Exlusion: IMAS

[red hawk]

do most non-collab ships have a separate oath skin or is that just a few ships

[viscid swift]

only a relatively small handful of ships have oath skins

[red hawk]

so I just happened to luck out that z23 was the first one I tried it on

[viscid swift]

something like that yes

[red hawk]

ok, for an actual gameplay question- how do I raise my torp score? Im locked out of the event hard mode past 3

[hushed sorrel]

just a few. i think you can filter them ingame. may remember that part wrong

[eternal basalt]

There are ZERO collab with oath skins

[hushed sorrel]

but the ships in question are non-collabs

[eternal basalt]

Yeah, you can use the "pledge outfit" to find the ones

[viscid swift]

using ship with higher torp stat, using auxes that give torp stat

also note that you can just do the map in easy node and attempt the next stage that does not need trp stat

[turbid patrol]

who should i choose

[viscid swift]

Shinano dupes if she's not MLB

[turbid patrol]

alr

[red hawk]

apparently 4+5 need 1200 torp I have 950, but 6 doesn't require a specific stat

[low juniper]

Yo Rascal

[red hawk]

is this event banner worth pulling on outside of the daily 3?

[eternal basalt]

How many cubes do you have?

[red hawk]

220

[eternal basalt]

No

[olive pagoda]

is there like a general guide on where l2d skin interactions are

[hushed sorrel]

this kind of question is always a bit akward. since there are different kinds of player and "worth" is always a personal opinion. since its not a collab the ships will always return later

[red hawk]

I guess I just meant are there any notable ships in it that have value for use

but I'll probably just save for the next event

[random sonnet]

Is cleopatra good for campaign? I rlly like her

[hollow viper]

So we shouldnt pull on the event banner?

Or maybe I'm missing a little context

[hushed sorrel]

as far as i have seen in hassats opinion is the next ur banner more important. as such he recommendts atleast 400 cubes for pity.

[turbid patrol]

who is the next UR

[winter condor]

waifu > meta / but u need strong ships for later tho so if u can save 400 cubes for UR better UR

[hushed sorrel]

our server is up to date. if azur lane didnt spoiler in social media we will not know

[turbid patrol]

alr

[viscid swift]

nope, they're all collection/tech

[random sonnet]

I pulled the event banner and ended up woth 970 cubes left am I cooked

[turbid patrol]

where do i get 7th Anniversary Invitation

[hollow viper]

Oh I kinda already pulled. I got massena and the other ship to the far right

[hushed sorrel]

7 days login reward

[turbid patrol]

alr ty

[hushed sorrel]

no but bragging isnt any help to this gameplay-help channel

[random sonnet]

How is that bragging

I spent a lot on a banner I shouldn’t of

[hushed sorrel]

i said 400 for the pity. more than that is extra

[random sonnet]

I’m an idiot

[viscid swift]

you'll be more than fine

[random sonnet]

The boobs were worth it

[hallow vale]

Who should I focus my wishes on? I plan on exchanging for Shinano, and while I understand getting more of her will be good for mlb, I just want more ships, so who I should I wish for?

[viscid swift]

check the pins

[manic spear]

How do I unlock SP stage

[hushed sorrel]

t6 in hard

[manic spear]

Bruh my torp stat isn’t even close

[red hawk]

you can do t6 without tor stat

[random sonnet]

Um the Ur Pity can you save that for limited URs or is it strictly just for the perms

[red hawk]

you can't do ht4 and ht5

[manic spear]

Oh yeah

[viscid swift]

just for perma URs

[nocturne horizon]

Is Unzen getting a rerun?

[cold flint]

How to get this thing

[random sonnet]

Who’s best to get?

[strong gust]

hi everyone on the new anchorage skin (and probably more) its listed as live 2d plus, anyone know what the plus means?

[viscid swift]

day 7 of the mini game

[hushed sorrel]

thats a minigame event reward

[cold flint]

Oh ok

[random sonnet]

I think you need to play mini game

[viscid swift]

Shinano

[manic spear]

Damn I can’t do the lv100 cap

[viscid swift]

you pay 80 more gems for a "special" interaction

[strong gust]

I see thank you

[viscid swift]

basically you're PoV is right up in her ass

[strong gust]

oh I see okay 😭

[red hawk]

idk who that's for but bless them for whaling to keep it free for poor schmucks like me

[random sonnet]

@viscid swift is cleopatra good

For just campaign

[glossy granite]

Why is it everytime i play on a brand new event i get kicked for ''Outdated game'' mid run 😭

[viscid swift]

she's meh

[sharp comet]

is there a way to opt for the old shop??

[red hawk]

how much should I be enhancing ships versus just retiring at the dock?

[viscid swift]

retire all dupe SRs, Elites, and rares you don't need

all commons go to ehancing until you run out of ships to enhance

[flat fractal]

is this wishing well construction worth it at all

[viscid swift]

check the pins

[glossy granite]

For me its great cuz im missing Essex and Aquila

[flat fractal]

oops mb see it in the pins

[viscid swift]

you know Essex is on the SR selector right

[red hawk]

could I be forgiven for dumping dupes of stuff like houston and vampire/terror that I have a bunch of since I wont be doing MLB on them for awhile?

[viscid swift]

yes

[glossy granite]

Ik

[turbid patrol]

i didn't know

rip

[viscid swift]

no one reads patch notes anymore apparently

[eternal basalt]

Or look at the icon featuring the ships

[glossy granite]

Its 2025 what do you expect 😭 As soon you see more than 2 sentences its too bothersome to read

[random sonnet]

I love you

[red hawk]

not on this game this time around but I generally tend to read patch notes, even if it's mostly mundane

[random sonnet]

Hrrm will the next UR be new or a rerun

[eternal basalt]

New, THEN rerun (early nov most likely)

Then Dec ANOTHER 2 NEW

[random sonnet]

Ok I’ll be saving

[red hawk]

so im assuming essex is what we'll want to use the selector on? I don't know any of the other ships on the list

[random sonnet]

So new UR next month?

[eternal basalt]

If you don't have her, yes

[hushed sorrel]

thats a lot more than usual :o

[eternal basalt]

Dec has always been 2 for 2 years now

[hushed sorrel]

well that means it happened 2 times.

[eternal basalt]

And in January Guam + Laffey II rerun

[obtuse island]

right now im almost finishing developing FDG, i had planned to develop anchorage next like yall recommend but wouldn't i be better off jumping straight to agir since i already have roon

anchorage is an upgrade but idk if it will be worth it considering the time i will have to spend

[eternal basalt]

Do you have a PR yet to pull prints?

Cause Agir is another DR, and you can pull free prints of PR+DR

[obtuse island]

huh wdym

[random sonnet]

Is the current banner limited

[obtuse island]

the event banner yeah

[steep vortex]

How long is operation siren chapter 1?

[eternal basalt]

PR and DR are seperate for coin up, so you can get ones from both rankings. If you go Agir you might not have a PR to benefit of this... hence... do tyou have an inprogress PR?

[eternal basalt]

Couple hours... if you read

[steep vortex]

How many stages required i mean

[obtuse island]

ohhh i see, i didn't knew this at all. I don't yet

[red hawk]

think its 6, I just did it. but there's some stuff in between the stages

[steep vortex]

Alright thanks I need to do a meta showdown for a quest

Hopefully I can do it within 2 days

[eternal basalt]

Get Anchorage then

[civic prairie]

is it alright to have fdg after avp?or should i go roon

[manic sable]

question but how does one get these? i never got into PR ships

[eternal basalt]

The META Showdown is end of chapter 1

[sleek flower]

/fleettech

[odd root]

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 mrlar

[manic sable]

oh

[steep vortex]

Ye I just need to know how much is required so I can do one real quick

[manic sable]

thanks

[civic prairie]

metawise,which perm ur are good?

vanguard?

[eternal basalt]

6 + SP

[steep vortex]

Does 1 fleet level 110 good enough?

Follow the red message boxes to move the story?

[arctic snow]

is there a way to make the shop ui go back to the original one? i'm so confused with it now

[empty bloom]

Has it been long enough to know if Essex retrofit is worth investing in yet?

[hushed sorrel]

i mean you probably must wait 6 days till the first player have her. nobody can retrofit her completly yet

[viscid swift]

and 6 more days to get her new skill leveled up

[modest spindle]

100 cubes and still not one of the new sr, i only have 100 left should i just stop and save for next ur

[deft kettle]

imo yeah

[grand radish]

The game says I cant enter SP stage because I need to clear “required stage” first. I have story and phase 1 and 2 done. What am I missing?

[hushed sorrel]

t6 in hard

[robust nymph]

so the event is pretty much sp once day and farm hard t6?

and ex for those who can

[hushed sorrel]

like always yes. ex for 500 cog chips if you want to use that much effort

[grand radish]

The hard mode not being a button anymore but a toggle before entering a stage totally messed up with me thanks

[civic prairie]

why some people say nj bad or irrelevant nowadays?is it low damage?

[fleet cosmos]

Should I make use of the Wishing Well for Pulling? and what are some decent ships to get as a newer player from the Wishing well ?

[arctic snow]

wait... thank god i was reading chat, i totally missed hard mode

[vale spindle]

check pins theres a wishbing wellsection there

[grand radish]

NJ is great. Its just that the powercreep is greater

[vale spindle]

i added a link showing where to find hard mode in event pin now

[arctic snow]

yeah i saw it now, still it kinda sucks not only being harder to find and also having to do it individually for all stages

[civic prairie]

aquila or perseus better picks?

[grand radish]

Yeah its so hidden nowadays. Before it was a one flashy button in a corner. Also some events dont have hard mode so I kinda just assumed it doesnt have one since I havent seen it

[arctic snow]

yeah, me too. i was farming normal mode until i saw your message, so thank you lol

[wary skiff]

is it worth trying to slot helena in this comp?

[little tree]

What is this fleet for ?

[wary skiff]

bossing

[little tree]

Opsi or chapter

[wary skiff]

ops

[little tree]

No Helena requires specific timing on cv and rld tech not worth the hassle unless you want rng to one strike or one fleet

Imo

[ionic kraken]

am i blind? or is emden not in the wishing well?

[viscid swift]

Too recent to be eligible

[ionic kraken]

sad about it. thanks for the info

[hollow gust]

its still mlb shinano and then mlb vanguard...

[wraith knoll]

Is this enough roon prints I cant remember

[hollow gust]

why are you not coining roon????

[rain vine]

how do you set up rally requests again?

[hollow gust]

and no thats still not enough for her fate sim, you need 508, which you couldve gotten way faster by just coining the ship

[eternal basalt]

[forest palm]

create an alt, get a code from main, give code to alt, do chores on alt so main gets paid out

something like that

[eternal basalt]

Use the UID of main on your alt

[obtuse island]

is it worth the grind tho

[forest palm]

I'd say its worth

[obtuse island]

well in that case ima give it a shot later, really not feeling like grinding that today

[eternal basalt]

I believe you NEED 14 days of support to get all stuff

[sullen viper]

Anyone know where the Essex retrofit part is ?

[viscid swift]

day 7 of the mini game

[forest palm]

someone didn't read

[sullen viper]

Thanks

Nothing in the pins btw

[forest palm]

it's right there

[misty tree]

Its in the most recent pin though

[eternal basalt]

Essex is in Special Construction (Wishing Well eligible!), or available from the 7th Anniversary Invitation (see the pin below this). 
Her retrofit item is available from daily missions that unlock throughout this event, similar to other login reward events in the past. There is a minigame involved but your score doesn't matter.```

[little tree]

Based name.

[vale spindle]

click on the message then it scrolls to it and u can see the entire message

[sullen viper]

Sorry for not searching then anyways thanks to the person Who tell me

[paper walrus]

have the anniversary rewards always been like this or is this somehow special?

[low juniper]

Rewards are the same other than 100 more gems than last year I'm pretty sure

Last year was 700, today was 800

[eternal basalt]

Same as JP and CN awards (except we get PR8, CN got PR7)

[dire kestrel]

What Limited Type and Ship names should I pick?

And is the event worth pulling on?

[eternal basalt]

How many cubes you got?

[dire kestrel]

465

[rain vine]

then save for the next UR banner

[eternal basalt]

*save 400

[dire kestrel]

Should I do the Limited banner?

[sharp comet]

is there no profile frame for this event?

[eternal basalt]

From the event Sylvan Retreat

[obtuse island]

nope the ships are collection/tech only saddly

[dire kestrel]

Ok thanks

[rain vine]

do 1 light pull per day

[dire kestrel]

So Light but what 2ships should I pick?

[eternal basalt]

I would pick 3 light per day; event currrency bonus

[fast skiff]

Hey guys I am nearing 700 pulls and I’m still missing the light carrier. I’m running out of oil and I don’t have any more coins left to spare. Is there any way to get coins besides grinding stages i’m very desperate

[obtuse island]

i thought you were talking about the limited ships banner, check pins for wishing well

[eternal basalt]

Checked your mail storage?

[dire kestrel]

Ok thanks

[rain vine]

theres another 13 days of the event, just farm 12-4 a few times

[fast skiff]

Empty

Today alone I’ve pulled like 650 times and I can’t get the carrier

[sharp comet]

u used 1300 cubes?

[midnight bluff]

Any1 else get stuck on the mainscreen after updating? Game won't let me in

[fast skiff]

Yes

I’m a 5 year veteran I have tons stocked but I’m actually starting to worry

[sharp comet]

💀 ☠️

[dire kestrel]

What type of ship and what 2 ships should I pick for the Wishing well? Don't have much and I don't know what's good

[wraith knoll]

shes still in production rn im working on the 2 mil exop

[rain vine]

wait for the 4000 weekly oil pack and just play the event
theres another 13 days left, theres no reason to rush it so much

[deep jolt]

Having those issues too

[midnight bluff]

Android?

[fast skiff]

I’m very pressed for time irl. Today is my only day I can really grind.

[deep jolt]

Yes

[fast skiff]

Until basically a whole week from now

[obtuse island]

if you have less than 400 cubes then save up for the next UR banner, if you do have more than 400 then check in the pinned messages the part talking about what ships are worth choosing

[little tree]

Didn't we get 2 oath rings last year on anny event or am I wrong?

[hollow gust]

, doesn't mean you should be researching pr1

[wraith knoll]

im nowhere near reseraching pr 2 tho

[fast skiff]

I had a game crash and I’m stuck here now anyone else having this issue

[wraith knoll]

but i feel like im too far in on researching roon rn

[wooden osprey]

i looked at pins, it didn't tell me whar stage i farm

[vale spindle]

need to click on the pin message to expand it

[hollow gust]

It doesn't matter , your research focus should be on seasons you can't coin

[eternal basalt]

#tech-support

[wooden osprey]

ah, technologia

[dire kestrel]

This is all I see for wishing well

[obtuse island]

click it to make it go to the full message

[hollow gust]

It's much much much better to coin for prints then research

[dire kestrel]

Ah ok thanks

[wraith knoll]

like in the shops or whatnot

[vale spindle]

i added a disclaimer to all 3 pins saying to click on the message to see all of it

[copper locust]

not that much related to gameplay but any predictions on when kearsarge's l2d will rerun?

[vale spindle]

latest probably november black friday

[rain vine]

https://azurlaneecgc.com/research/
give this a read

[hollow gust]

^ Cause you are wasting a huge amount of resource and time for something that's simple

[copper locust]

also when a unit reaches level 125, do the xp that they gain still contribute to the research?

[rain vine]

/prgrind

[odd root]

Does __ count for Shipyard Combat Data Collection EXP?

Yes

• Combat in Main Campaign, Events, Operation Siren
• Ships that are level capped for any reason, if the EXP otherwise would count. Even if you see +0.
• Muse (µ) ships and loli ships, if the faction matches.
• Use faction filters in Dock to double check.

No

• EXP from Exercise, Dorm, EXP Data Packs, Commissions.
• META ships. They are META faction, not the faction of their normal counterparts.

[wraith knoll]

damn i should get those ironblood tech points n rush fdg huh

[hollow gust]

Getting Roon isn't a problem , it's your research selection still being pr1 is

[steep vortex]

How close am I to the end of chapter 1 now?

Finished section 4

[eternal basalt]

Check your missionlog

[steep vortex]

Empty

Ive never seen it have anything

[eternal basalt]

Sure it doesn't contain "Secure <color=#92fc63>8</color> zones in the NA Ocean SW Sector (Unlocks Chapter 2-1)."?

[hollow gust]

Just follow that red symbol no?

[eternal basalt]

That red symbol is a puzzle

[hollow gust]

Either way clear the entire quadrant, going to have to anyway

[steep vortex]

I need to know because stuff starting to escalate in difficulty

[eternal basalt]

Anyways, Secure <color=#92fc63>8</color> zones in the NA Ocean SW Sector (Unlocks Chapter 2-1).

[steep vortex]

Id love to ask what this spaghetti code means

[eternal basalt]

Secure 8 zones in the NA Ocean SW Sector (Unlocks Chapter 2-1).

[steep vortex]

.....why wasn't that the first awnser lol

[eternal basalt]

It was

[steep vortex]

The heck is this then

[eternal basalt]

Never worked with color code. smh. Making my copy+paste wor harder. smh

[steep vortex]

[woeful sluice]

Thank you

[gentle copper]

I had the same exact bug

but it's working again

[obtuse island]

so basically to pull this off you coin the ship till dev30 and use the catchup to get combat data packs

right?

[hushed sorrel]

i will not look at the picture but that will work

[obtuse island]

i did saw the picture in a guide to minmax that but i didn't really understood it so i just ignored it until now

[hallow vale]

So, for the 7th anniversary, I got a promise ring and 800 gems… is that the same every year? I only started playing about a month ago

[ivory pawn]

Last year was a promise ring and 700 gems.

[hallow vale]

So we can assume next year will be a ring and 900 gems?

[ivory pawn]

I wouldn't go that far, but I think it's a safe bet there'll be a ring and some large amount of gems.

[steep vortex]

So how does OPS actually work when im participating in it?

[hallow vale]

Is 900 actually that much?

[ivory pawn]

I just don't wanna get your hopes up if they only give us 800 gems again next year.

[ornate narwhal]

What are the drops in each event stage?

[hallow vale]

I’m not worried about it. I’m just glad that I got free gems, and as a f2p I’m glad that I can buy a skin

[robust onyx]

Skin is I'll advised for f2p

[steep vortex]

+40 dock space is nice lol

[ivory pawn]

Opsi? It's mostly just clearing out the entire map bit by bit, then going after random points of interest that'll be highlighted by a yellow chest/red enemy symbol/big hurricane.

[hallow vale]

I know, but all the L2D skins are kind of only 400 gems now

[steep vortex]

What do all those mean

[obtuse island]

eventually you gonna have to collect a lot of ships, as a f2p player myself i'll use every drop of gems i get just to never get stuck for lack of dock space

[hallow vale]

Fair, but I’m okay with getting rid of some of my common ships

[robust onyx]

800 gems equal 40 spaces

[dusty wigeon]

So for wishing well would special be good to get.. forgets name.. the not unicorn healer carrier and then something else? (As picks no garentee getting)

[ivory pawn]

You've hit Overview and seen that big map, broken up into all those sections, yeah? It's clearing out all those sections for their rewards. You've probably seen some green/red icons pop up, those you want to chase and complete. Later on you'll see some yellow ones pop up, they're good to complete but you can put them off if you'd like.

[steep vortex]

I heard something about a story reset in Opsi wha that mean?

[ivory pawn]

The Opsi story will never reset, but after you clear a certain point the map progress will reset every month. And more importantly, so will all the rewards, allowing you to get them again.

[ivory pawn]

There's a laundry list in pins. Perseus isn't that high a priority, but Aquila and Volga are both solid options.

[steep vortex]

So like all the zones will go dark again and I'll have to redo the main map of each area?

[ivory pawn]

If that sounds tedious, you also get the option to unlock a way to strategic search the zones for the low, low cost of 5000 oil.

[steep vortex]

Will my buffs reset every month as well(the 3 ones you build up)

[obtuse island]

also after finishing the story (and if i remember, after your first reset after that) you'll access new port stores with more stuff

[steep vortex]

That's good

[ivory pawn]

And instead of having to check every port every couple days, you can just check any single port whenever you feel like.

[steep vortex]

This is devastating news to me

[obtuse island]

it's not hard, just clearing the areas again you gonna build up all 3

[ivory pawn]

You'll have options to quickboost your buffs a bit, from a new Voucher shop as well as the new Port shop.

[steep vortex]

How many in each section do you need realistically

Im going for 30 in each section rn

[obtuse island]

can't remember the caps but it depends on the content you wanna do, for the hardest stuff like strongholds, enforcers and arbiters you gonna need like 180 each if i remember

although i do want you to do your own research regarding the adaptive tunings

[eternal basalt]

188/188/144 pre-Harbiter

[ivory pawn]

The highest needed at all is something like 205/205/155.

[robust nymph]

just unlocked these two, which of the two is better and what kinda fleet do i want?

[hollow gust]

Whichever one you can beat, BBs against FP, CV against air

[ornate narwhal]

Out of all the heavy/special SR/Elites which are the best?

[robust nymph]

well which one is easier and why

[rain haven]

Ur pity - vanguard or kron?

[robust nymph]

also is the rewards the same

[hollow gust]

Max out shinano then max out vanguard

[rain haven]

I got everyone else maxed yes, so vanguard it us

[hollow gust]

Dependent on your fleet , try both ; the rewards are the same

[ivory pawn]

One rewards main gun related plates, the other rewards air related plates.

[eternal basalt]

FP gives BB parts, Air gives AVI parts... I find FP better

[robust nymph]

are level 120-125 ships with gold gear +10 enough?

not necessarily insanely meta ships like URs etc

[ivory pawn]

Depends on ships and gear. Just give it a try, you lose basically nothing if you fail.

[ornate narwhal]

Aquila volva or Perseus the best?

[steep vortex]

That's why im here

[obtuse island]

they already dropped the pre harbiter and harbiter adaptive tunings needed

[viral jetty]

This is my current team. Excluding Saint Louis, which Ill remove, what ships could I replace with simply better ones

[obtuse island]

make a thread and send your dock there

[high bluff]

are the l2d+ skins not working for anyone else here

[steep vortex]

What do these do?

[viral jetty]

I dont need to have them unlocked. Im talking more generally about the ships in game. Im sure some of the ones I use are replaceable

[obtuse island]

https://discord.com/channels/456397991847395339/488684387932700672

[high bluff]

ty

[ornate narwhal]

straser or Volga?

[ivory pawn]

Those are the yellow icons I was talking about. Tapping view will bring you to them. Clearing them usually gives better rewards than clearing a normal zone.

[steep vortex]

Like batteries, gear peices and more purple coins?

[eternal basalt]

And golden parts if lvl is high enough

[steep vortex]

Are there any drops i should be on the look out for

[obtuse island]

yeah but as you would know usually building your fleet well and sticking with that for a while is usually the most efficient option while you get the meta stuff

but incase you really want to see your cards then you can check out this https://azurlaneecgc.com/samvaluation

i do advice you to read it with the right mind though

[viral jetty]

alr, Ill make the thread now

[robust nymph]

79 oil.. praying

[viral jetty]

Ill save the link, tysm

[hollow gust]

if that is augmted warspite you already won

[steep vortex]

Cause there seems to be a large drop table between battles, the meofficer locations and puzzles

[robust nymph]

ok my vanguard exploded LOL

[sweet delta]

Bring unicorn and nothing else in the main fleet to save oil

[eternal basalt]

Meowfficer > Battles >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Puzzles

[robust nymph]

is my tirpitz drunk

[sweet delta]

Two other carriers for screen clear if you have joystick issues

Yeah maybe don't bring aegir

[eternal basalt]

Does she have her augment, cause if not, yes, yes she is

[steep vortex]

I ment what drops should I look out for that benefit me alot

[eternal basalt]

Everything, in large quantities

[robust nymph]

ok this could be it

[ornate narwhal]

Are there any good vanguard ships in heavy that I should get from the wishing well?

[sweet delta]

Again read what I wrote, BBs are useless

[ivory pawn]

Not like you have a lot of control over the drops, but if you see gold electronics, gold gear plates, or rainbow anything you're winning.

[steep vortex]

Alright

[sweet delta]

Unless you're that strong enough to wipe out the enemy boats

[robust nymph]

someone said earlier BBs are good here so idk i put unicorn, i can put enty as well

i can go 3 cvs as well

[steep vortex]

Last question for now i think, what's a reliable way to get the purple batteries for the stations and towers and chests that need batteries

[twilit wren]

hi everyone, any of the event ships i should lookout for?

[icy moth]

Been trying to get these two to work for literal years now, how do I get these stars?

[ornate narwhal]

Help pls…

[icy moth]

Maybe balti to pair with soon to be retroessex

[ivory pawn]

For the switch, put your ships on the two 2s if they show up after beating up an elite fleet.
For the ambush, just get lucky after beating an elite fleet.
Only happens the first time you explore each month, so good luck!

[robust nymph]

ok i did it unicorn was the play ty

[eternal basalt]

You get one shot per month... Be lucky

[twilit wren]

i have 325 cubes, seeing conflicting advice
some say the event ships arent allat
pinned comment says event is priority cuz limited

[ivory pawn]

Event is priority over Wishing Well if you want to pull.

[eternal basalt]

Have 400 next month, UR event

[icy moth]

One shot per month?

[ivory pawn]

If you only have 325, I'd only do daily event build, maybe up to 3 a day if you want.

[eternal basalt]

Don't waste batteries on them

[steep vortex]

What do I use em for then

[eternal basalt]

Farming to turn to vouchers

[steep vortex]

Wdym

[eternal basalt]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/List_of_Operation_Siren_Zones#Objectives

[twilit wren]

also saw that i could set wishing well to light ships and just do the one light daily

[steep vortex]

Farm for what, and what are vouchers?

[eternal basalt]

The batteries, and https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Operation_Siren#Reset

[icy moth]

Omg thanks I’ve been trying so much random stuff and nothing seems to work

[low juniper]

Will we get the 200 gems before Anchorage's skin goes out of the shop?

[ivory pawn]

That's also an option if you just want to maximize cube income with a higher shot at whichever ships you choose.

[hollow gust]

skins are for whales

[low juniper]

Wait so those 200 gems aren't gonna come in time???

[viral jetty]

@obtuse island should I do the thread in discord-feedback?

[obtuse island]

it's right here you gotta do it

[eternal basalt]

Pretty sure you had till the 28th to do it, so no

[low juniper]

Goddammit I need those gems or I can't get her skin

Is there no second half of skins?

[hollow gust]

you get skins by whaling

[viral jetty]

Zentlh' dock help

[steep vortex]

So i get vouchers if I just keep them. What do I purchase at the start of every month, or should I just save them indefinitely

[eternal basalt]

Every month you spend vouchers at the voucher shop, you need a lot to buy all 8 Classified Files Mission Logger

[steep vortex]

Lol yes I know that but on what in particular

[hollow gust]

2nd half of skins are next week, and gems are released after next next week where all skins are gone

[eternal basalt]

No, next patch is 28th... AFTER event, what 2nd half of skins?

[ivory pawn]

https://azurlaneecgc.com/shop_priority/#voucher

[hollow gust]

wait what?

[steep vortex]

Fir 800 vouchers each?

[low juniper]

Fuck

[woeful sluice]

Regaring the protocore income spreadsheet. Does PR1 +PR2+PR3+PR5 catchup inculde DR's or just the PR's?

[eternal basalt]

Only buy them if you got spares though, they don't go anywhere

[steep vortex]

What do they do in particular if I may ask

[eternal basalt]

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

[low juniper]

How does one get 613 gems in such a short timeframe aside from credit card

[turbid dawn]

Am I crazy, how to get to SP stage?

[hollow gust]

where does it say batch 2 is in 2 weeks

[eternal basalt]

What batch 2 ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

[eternal basalt]

/hardmode

[odd root]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/460648604974055424/1322138175426269215/image0.png

[turbid dawn]

Oh they changed it, ty

[grand radish]

I had the same problem earlier today. Each stage has a hard mode but its a toggle on the stage itself now

[steep vortex]

So if i don't think I can beat them just save them indefinitely?

How hard are they?

[eternal basalt]

You can buy 1 at a time so not much choice there

[hollow gust]

im going insane, i thought they split the skin batches in 2

[eternal basalt]

This isn't CN/JP anniversary

[steep vortex]

Im just asking as I learn information and skim over the links,I just need a plan of what to do

[ivory pawn]

The only maybe difficult portion is the final boss battle, but you'll hopefully have beaten up several of that very boss beforehand so you'll have a rough idea if you can do it.

[fallen verge]

is there any way to automatically retire 1* ships that i get from stages

[red hawk]

use them to enhance your fleet

[robust nymph]

i wish

[steep vortex]

I only need chapter one for meta showdown, I need to do one for a returners quest

[novel solstice]

You let them accumulate for a while, then do mass enhance and/or quick-retire. This is one of the reasons why people say you should spend the bulk of your gems on dock space; the more space you've got, the less frequently you need to take out the trash.

[steep vortex]

That's why I pushed story and luckily joined around the anniversary for +40 dock space^^

I have so much dock space idk what to do with^^

[weary gust]

It'll fill out. There's over 700 ships in the game.

[ornate narwhal]

What are good SR vanguard ships?

[hushed sorrel]

the amount of gems you will gain later in the game will be drastically reduced since most are one-time rewards

each dock space is important and not wasted

[frigid elbow]

Which skins are L2D+ again?
Didn't exactly followed the news, just heard about it

[steep vortex]

Still, joining at anniversary gives i nice boost while im saving pulls

[woeful sluice]

Portland (retrofit), laffey, helena (retrofit) is what i started out with and I didn'T have problems with them at all

[hushed sorrel]

i heard they cost 80 gems more than l2d skins. i would just say the most expensive ones

i dont know which skins are +

[obtuse island]

they have different angles

oh thought you said "why the skins are +" mb

[ornate narwhal]

Yea, I’m looking to build my 2nd fleet’s vanguard and want to cube them through the wishing well

[eternal basalt]

Bois and Anchorage

[frigid elbow]

Bois is l2d+?
Cause her price is lesser than ancorafe

[woeful sluice]

I think in the pins are recommendations for vanguard ships in the wishing well

[eternal basalt]

She's an elite, -80 gems. Nope, SR... huh, dunno then

[ornate narwhal]

I don’t think so, I have yat sen and she’s on my 1st fleet, and idk if aurora is good with Helena

[boreal wagon]

L2D skin prices have ranges while there is generally a consitent price they do occasionally release cheaper or more expensive ones, Bois is simply a base 1100 L2D and got the +80 for being ld2+

[woeful sluice]

if you put her in the bossing fleet I think there's nothing wrong with her

[hushed sorrel]

how do i access the ingame report? didnt see it

[covert arrow]

does anyone have the event tierlist or smth?

[opaque galleon]

What does the Essex retrofit barrages look like?

[boreal wagon]

no one can even have her retrofitted yet

[opaque galleon]

Aren’t there datamines for that?

[hushed sorrel]

if you want to see the datamine look in the pins

[boreal wagon]

those will generally tell you about the stats of it but not what it actually looks like

[sweet delta]

If you answer this for me then I can describe the barrage for you

if the BattleSkillFire is TargetNil and the planes' rockets are aimed, do they aim at an enemy?

~~But if you answer no, then i can't describe it ~~

[steep vortex]

Question if I missed something in a story stage in Opsi like a collectable can I get it later on?

When is that unlocked?

[eternal basalt]

There are no collectable in story stages btw

[steep vortex]

There are notes

153

Ive gotten 3 of them from story stages

But one of the story stages finished before I explored all the black spots

[eternal basalt]

You mean record files? Cause they don't come from story stages

[steep vortex]

Oh

Either way I missed a half of maps exploration

I just need to know if I can do chapter 1 story stages again later on

[steep vortex]

Or no

Heck I missed loot then

TwT

[chrome fiber]

Will there be no UR soon on the event banner? If so I'll try my luck and get the ships on this event banner.

[eternal basalt]

There will be an UR on the NEXT event banner actually

[steep vortex]

Worth anything?

Figured

[woeful sluice]

Why is Perseus not a good option for the wishing well? Just out of meta or are there better alternatives (except Unicorn)?

[eternal basalt]

Amazing skin though

[steep vortex]

What about Jarvis and Jeanne'de'ark(definitely not on my wishing well)

[gray sphinx]

I usually use unicorn and then if she’s out of morale I use Aquila

[steep vortex]

They any good?^^

[woeful sluice]

gotchu, then I'll just put Aquilla in the wishing well

[stark quiver]

Percy isn’t good
Unicorn is more than enough
Aquila is a good pick, Albion isn’t bad either because her obtain tech is good

[steep vortex]

Meh to much skin no clothing F tier

[chrome fiber]

[steep vortex]

Did I choose bad or good enough for a beginner(not newbie)

[chrome fiber]

What's the difference between l2d+ skin vs normal l2d

[stark quiver]

You get special scenes and interactions

[stark quiver]

Yea it was a bad pick

Meta wise at least

[steep vortex]

Yay im so good at this^^

[chrome fiber]

Hey. So there's a UR next banner? do we know if there's more UR after? So that i can plan my cube's

[woeful sluice]

December

[eternal basalt]

There's an UR rerun after it, probably nov. Then dec x2, and january x2. Good luck newbies.

[chrome fiber]

Ah not bad then

[stark quiver]

But September usually has a UR

[steep vortex]

Meh I got everything I need just looking for certain ships now that don't even get reruns

[chrome fiber]

How much cubes should i have to be secure enough to try and pull the current event banner.

[steep vortex]

From what I heard 400

[woeful sluice]

yeah he said UR banner next and what's after

[chrome fiber]

Great

[steep vortex]

If its 2x 800 maybe

Idk

[chrome fiber]

Isn't the 2x on December

[eternal basalt]

Still 400. The second is from the shop

[stark quiver]

nobody knows

[steep vortex]

I ment if its 2 cubes per pull

[chrome fiber]

Ahh alright im fine for now with 1636 cubes then

[stark quiver]

1600

[wooden osprey]

she has no pants here, but in-game has pants?

[eternal basalt]

It's 200 pulls = 400 cubes

[steep vortex]

Aaaahhhh make sense now thanki

[steep vortex]

Cencered version maybe

I saw on da wiki that some skins have a cencered and uncensored version

[wooden osprey]

but this is en

[steep vortex]

Idk im not the expert here but I saw it on the wiki and thought i share

[stark quiver]

where is essex retrofit mission

[boreal wagon]

its the last day of the minigame

[stark quiver]

oh thanks

[chrome fiber]

This event banner doesn't seem appetizing. Would it be fine to skip?

[stark quiver]

if you dont care abt collection % and tech sure

[storm olive]

literally every ship on the banner has good tech

[chrome fiber]

So recommended then

[steep vortex]

Am I right not appealing inthe slightest

[boreal wagon]

i wouldnt consider bc eva very important but yes

[storm olive]

i forgot the BC existed

[chrome fiber]

Do i still need to care about tech after getting all shipyard ship?

[stark quiver]

120 tech is what i mean

[boreal wagon]

different kind of tech
when this channel talk about tech we generally mean the stat bonuses for leveling to 120

[stark quiver]

i dont care abt faction tech because its easy to get

[boreal wagon]

the other thing we usually call faction points (or faction tech)

[chrome fiber]

ohh

[gray sphinx]

Tech bonuses actually are pretty important when climbing really difficult content so I’d pay attention to it if you start being able to do that

[chrome fiber]

I see is there a place where i can look more into it

[boreal wagon]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Fleet_Technology teaches you more about it and also has a list but the list also kind of exists in game

[steep vortex]

What faction do all these event ships belong in?

[boreal wagon]

there are also trackers for it (but they are very manual)

[stark quiver]

https://azurlane.mrlar.dev/db/tracker? some dude made a tracker for 120 tech

[viscid swift]

they're all French

[steep vortex]

Ahhh I see we don't like the French

[boreal wagon]

all iris libre to be more precise (since there is 2 french )

[viscid swift]

huh?

[stark quiver]

vichiya cheekman

[viscid swift]

I know that

[stark quiver]

unless you are responding to the dont like french

[steep vortex]

Apparently these French ships don't wear any clothes at all in the event, idk why

[stark quiver]

fan service makes money

[grizzled sundial]

Is Champy gun worth to craft ?

[steep vortex]

Seems uninspired a model but no detail but I see your reasoning, but a waste of desgin fir a character

[viscid swift]

that's just how the game roles these days

just gonna put that out there right now

[steep vortex]

Buuuuut thier are actually good designs in this game to so im conflicted

Tis the reason why I never want character without a decent default skin cause im not spending money to fix it

Its hard to be a f2p, wish thier was more Dimonds

Btw why don't they give Dimonds for version updates?

[eternal basalt]

Cause then they'd be broke, and the game EoS

[viscid swift]

why would they

[stark quiver]

or we get paywalled

[viscid swift]

the game makes its in game money from selling gems to be used for primarily skins

they're certainly not making anything from the gacha

[steep vortex]

Like 50 Dimonds per version that too much?

[viscid swift]

I mean given we get a patch every other week

[eternal basalt]

Do you know how many updates we get?

[steep vortex]

Version update though, the bigger updates, not patches or maintenance patches

[viscid swift]

what "version updates"

[steep vortex]

Like the updates that add a gig to my ever decreasing storage

Like how other gachas have

[boreal wagon]

thats almost every update these days

besides we do get gems whenever there is a mandatory update to the games app itself

[undone plover]

Cheaper from protocore

[boreal wagon]

and we also get gems for anniversaries

[viscid swift]

like once a year but better than nothing

[steep vortex]

How many

[viscid swift]

200

[steep vortex]

How often

[boreal wagon]

about once a year

[steep vortex]

Bleh

I figured once a month or two

[viscid swift]

this is the price of the generous gacha

[eternal basalt]

Andd CNY

[boreal wagon]

i dont think you understand how the game keeps itself alive

[steep vortex]

Idk if this is a generous gacha though I guess its subjective

[eternal basalt]

You want to dl 20 GB every 2 months?

[fleet cosmos]

Hi could someone knowledgeable help me out with making 2 Fleets to get me from Farming 9-1 to farming 12-4 (I struggle with everything past chapter 9)
I plan on Picking up Essex from the Invitation. I can also still get either Shinano or NJ from my Beginner Missions (I also have enough Bulins available to MLB one UR Ship)
these currently are my units, the last 2 pictures are my units that I have, that have an Retrofit.

[undone plover]

Cheeky up to what map is low cost possible?

[viscid swift]

I literally have 100% collection rate as a free to play and every ship max limit broken

I don't think you could do that in any other gacha game

[sleek leaf]

Definitely generous. It is practically impossible to not get every ship

[steep vortex]

Unless you missed collab ships

[viscid swift]

collab ships don't count towards collection rate

[steep vortex]

Then its not true 100%

[sleek leaf]

They get reruns

[boreal wagon]

there is also virtually no reason to ever spend gems on something like pulls unlike in other games where the premium currency is also your pull currency usually

[strong tartan]

only some most of them come only once

[steep vortex]

I doubt a Kasumi.AI or a hololive collab rerun is inthe cards for this game

[rain vine]

they cant really do anything about collabs in most cases, due to ip rights

[eternal basalt]

Neptunia. Neptunia. NEPTUNIA!

[viscid swift]

like 3/10 or something so far have

[stark quiver]

ask me in 1 hour

[sleek leaf]

3/10 is still better than 90% of other gachas who get 0/10

[clear harbor]

This is certainly one of the more F2P friendly games I've played, gacha or not.
