[knotty jolt]

[rapid shard]

Yeah keep your mob fleet in 2nd floor dorm. when they at 150 do a x3 sortie and wait 30ish min for them to get back to 150 for the bonus xp

[sinful relic]

well not really aiming for the plane if im being honest, aiming to get the UR bulin. im like 1/4 of the way there.

[elfin bay]

Thank you

[sinful relic]

this week i can keep both teams in dorm

[onyx flame]

ehh you dont really need your boss team in the dorm at all

[sinful relic]

i uh- whaled

[rapid shard]

Once you have second floor, use the first to passivly level new ships. boss fleet doesnt need it

[onyx flame]

might as well use the 6 slots to lvl ships passively

[sinful relic]

ooh okay

[rapid shard]

1st floor gives xp/morale and 2nd floor has slightly higher morale recovery

[knotty jolt]

or if you're me, have 2 mob fleets in to swap around for extra farming

[lofty thistle]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[sinful relic]

yeah im just whaling everything interms of dock space, and dorm, and skins. thats all.

[sterile jolt]

Depends

[verbal plinth]

depends on your oil and how new are you

[knotty jolt]

ideally 5-6 but you don't need them particularly

[spark patio]

is Lex 2 good? i haven't got her

[sinful relic]

should i wait to get guam and laffey 2? im thinking of marrying the entire mob fleet for faster morale regen.

[lofty thistle]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[onyx flame]

that such a thing to do

[verbal plinth]

up too you imo they wont be usefull for months prob

[elfin bay]

which UR ships are helping with other fleets again?

[sterile jolt]

Just.... Patience...

[verbal plinth]

if ever if you have bb's

[rapid shard]

Oath for morale isnt worth it lmao it only saves like 5min

[onyx flame]

just doom scoll for 5 mins ez

[rapid shard]

@elfin bay For?

[sinful relic]

5mins?

once they reach 120 morale does it only take 5 mins to reach 150 again?

[verbal plinth]

40ish iirc

[wind hazel]

[zinc basalt]

+10 regen

[rapid shard]

Oathing recovery morale isnt that impactful at all

[elfin bay]

i have a weak fleet to farm PR xp during event, im thinking of using another fleet that helps like perseus, implac, etc.. I only know two of them

[zinc basalt]

/hour

[rapid shard]

/crossfleet

[odd root]

https://www.azurlaneecgc.com/images/equip_misc/Cross-fleet_Effects.jpeg

[elfin bay]

thank u

[spark patio]

hey mori, is Lex 2 good?

[wind hazel]

yes

[sinful relic]

honestly with how much i kinda no life azur lane the married looks worth it, but then again i dont think my oil would keep up. ill stick to marrying the girls i like or girls that have wedding skins

[zinc basalt]

just give ring to girls if you like it so much

[sinful relic]

amagi my beloved, make it pass a year already

[rapid shard]

Amagi BB is avaiable when you get BB selector in medal ship FYI

[sinful relic]

yeah but i picked alabama, so i gotta wait a bit.

[onyx flame]

~~inb4 5 months no bb ~~

[sinful relic]

inb4?

[olive pagoda]

I wish Lexington's support skill isn't class restrictive

[spark patio]

the grind method is still grinding last stage hard mode?

[onyx flame]

in before

[sinful relic]

works out for me when i found out legit most of my fleet is USS by complete accident

[sinful relic]

ahh, im kinda dumb dont mind me

[olive pagoda]

most of my fleet are sakura or KMS, only a small part are USS

[sinful relic]

i just realised, is gaum vanguard like laffey 2?

[rapid shard]

Yes

[zinc basalt]

ya

[sinful relic]

who the heck am i replacing then...?

[kind slate]

guys how is the ur looking? she look strong?

[olive pagoda]

it's only been a day

[viscid swift]

Tbd

And they're oriented towards light armor and we don't have any relevant light armor bosses to test against

[small quarry]

Can I complete these 2 missions only in the SP mode of the event, guys?

[viscid swift]

Yes

[zinc basalt]

yes

[small quarry]

damm 🤬

[zinc basalt]

hmmmmm

should i.....

[sinful relic]

honest question, if im replacing two units for vanguard, for gaum and laffey 2, who would i replace?

laffey makes sense, but im a little loss because all DAL girls are pretty strong and helena is strong in her own right aswell

[viscid swift]

Can you actually max limit break them for one thing

[sinful relic]

ill be able to limit break only one, but shortly after i can do the next one.

[zinc basalt]

ok let's go

[viscid swift]

You'd swap them in for AA heavy content

[sinful relic]

ohh so like interchange them depending on the content im doing?

[viscid swift]

Blogging goes to #al-general btw

[sinful relic]

so im assuming i wont need them for w12? but i may need them for w13?

[rapid shard]

W13 and W15 they will help the most

[viscid swift]

Yes

[sinful relic]

hmm got it, i dont need to worry about w13 for a while to say the least, but im soon to approach w12, which means i can finally get started on PR ships.

do you guys mostly grind gear on w12?

like upgrades and stuff?

[rain vine]

you grind for gear in opsi

[rapid shard]

You dont grind gear in campaign. Opsi is main source and event shops

[sinful relic]

i mean the upgrade thingies.

[rapid shard]

Plates?

[sinful relic]

im severely lacking these.

[viscid swift]

Plates, I guess in so much as they drop from w12 yes

[tulip tinsel]

drops from campaign for sure

[rapid shard]

Youll naturally build those up as you grind. just ignore them for a week or so and youll build up a bit of stock of them

[small quarry]

Someone passed the D3 event with all ships at level 100, both fleets... I tried, but since I only have a few above level 100, I was prevented from entering.

[tulip tinsel]

daily raid too if high enough level

[onyx flame]

did you meet the other stat reqs

[sinful relic]

ahh okay, most of my ships have them at 7-8+ while tohka and alabama have all their gear at 10+

is that fine for w12?

[small quarry]

It's impossible to fulfill everything they want; there's a huge lack of content at the moment in my team

[obtuse island]

what low cost ships yall use to grind?

[rapid shard]

Long as your not trying to put a new set of gear on every ship you level you wont have much issues after you get some core gear sets upgraded

[white agate]

cassin plus ranger level 70 0lb

all damage comes from crossfleet

[upbeat wagon]

This is not for d3 right

[obtuse island]

how does your ranger doesn't die tho

[white agate]

for D3 and SP stage i use a different comp

[onyx flame]

as long as you meet the bottom stats and have 1 fleet function it should let you in

[sinful relic]

im mostly swapping out gear when i need to swap the girlss out, for now i think ill focus on MLB aquila and lexi2, level them and push W12. though i think i need to actually change gear on tohka.

[obtuse island]

i'd guess your crossfleet is good enough to kill everything

[rapid shard]

D3 running Ranger Sandy and its clearing with no issue with Sashi Essex Shinano crossfleets. like 520 for x3

[white agate]

yes, unless you refer to D3 or SP stage crossfleet is pretty neat

[white agate]

you are using the crossfleet fleet for the boss?

well, regardeless i am leveling up ships on my D3 fleet so not an issue for me thinking about oil, i do all mobs and boss with it

[rapid shard]

ive had crossfleet fleet nuke boss havent tried full clear. with 1:1 give me like 2min and ill check

[onyx flame]

honestly uni + sandy can nuke everything esp since you got crossfleet

[viscid swift]

Can I just say that's impossible given your average ship level needs to be above level 100 for D3

[small quarry]

My tallest character is Kotori, level 114, and I had to put LB in York to do the event mission...maybe in the next event.

[onyx flame]

im running uni + og laff with no crossfleet and it clear no issues

[small quarry]

This time, I'm going to give up; maybe at the next event. Thanks for the help, everyone.

[viscid swift]

What

[obtuse island]

was tryna run cassi + unicorn for D3, everything goes well till the out of ammo battles

[viscid swift]

My dude, you have 3 weeks

[white agate]

you have literally 20 days to level up your ships

[obtuse island]

though my cassi isn't retrofitted or anything

[small quarry]

I'm doing the other missions, I'm calm. 😌

[viscid swift]

Just use a DDg or something similar at that point

[white agate]

well, ofc, cassin needs to be 0lb level 70 to use 1 oil

[stark quiver]

[obtuse island]

tbh im just gonna stick to unicorn + eldridgekai, both only use 11 oil iirc so something is something

[sharp socket]

uni + ddg = 20 oil

[white agate]

not enough spared to make me bat an eye

[obtuse island]

i tried to do that but cassi would loose half hp in one battle

[obtuse island]

now we're talking.

[sharp socket]

low cost requires crossfleet

also only for like B1

[onyx flame]

i run uni + og laff for D3 with like no crossfleet cept I404

[white agate]

whatcha using btw? i am using 2 bb and 1 cv, then z52,halford, another ship and then my eldkai plus uni, also on standby the new ur ss

[rapid shard]

Full clears everything for 450 for x3. Sandy didnt even drop below 1/2 and forgot to put gear on ranger

[white agate]

why are you using an oathed ship as example

[spark patio]

what is the best strategy to farm this event? spam D3 ? do i need to do daily bonus?

[upbeat wagon]

has crossfleet?

[sharp socket]

farm D3 yes

[white agate]

do all daily normal with low oil fleet, do sp with low oil fleet , spam D3 with low oil fleet

[rapid shard]

Oathed her a while back. even unoathed she will clear

[spark patio]

is 801 for 3 sorties good?

[viscid swift]

Unless you want to farm hvars

[white agate]

no, tho sandy oathed is an upgrade to normal sandykai

[white agate]

no, should bemuch less

[upbeat wagon]

What does kai after characters mean, essexkai means her retro?

[viscid swift]

Yes

It's a term we borrowed from Kancolle

[kind slate]

its also kai in jp as well isnt it?

[viscid swift]

I dunno

[white agate]

i thought retro in jp was called kai

[kind slate]

it is

[viscid swift]

Considering though at one point Kansen were called Kamansu before the devs remembered the latter had been copyrighted

[kind slate]

whats kamansu

[spark patio]

can i have sample poverty fleet to farm D3?

[viscid swift]

The term for ship girls in Kancolle

[sharp socket]

just run your best fleet cause its oilcap

or level ships in there

[spark patio]

ah, mb i misunderstood him

[ocean terrace]

SP has no oil cap?

[onyx flame]

nop

[ocean terrace]

did I just spend 500 oil on 1 sortie

[onyx flame]

yea but its once a day

[obtuse island]

that's sp for you

[onyx flame]

if you can cheap it out cheap out the mob fleet

[ocean terrace]

I clicked too quickly and saw a glimpse of 580 oil and I wasn't sure

[whole crypt]

SP can look something like this

[white agate]

for me it was about 220 i think? gotta check tomorrow

[white agate]

is that using the level 100 CN unfair exploit?

[rain vine]

what exploit?

[covert sierra]

We can get the gold event plane on D3 only? or any D stages?

[rapid shard]

D3 only

[white agate]

well, we can't use 0lb ships at level 100 unless the ships are UR,Dr, or meta, CN can tho

[rain vine]

thats not an exploit, that has always been there for CN

[covert sierra]

Not enough avi

[vagrant tusk]

hey guys i have a question about event stage, so i want to do the hard stage event D3, it had AVI requirment, how do i increas my AVI? i need quite much, my AVI only 1223 and i need at least 1700 or more

[rapid shard]

More CVs mainly

Gear as well

[white agate]

not for us

[onyx flame]

you need more cvs more than anything tbh

[white agate]

gotta say halford is amazing to pad 200 avi as to be able to use 2 BB crossfleet plus uni

[vagrant tusk]

CV like the type of ship? or what?

[rapid shard]

CV, Carrier ships. Like Enterprise Essex etc

[onyx flame]

more carrier basically

[white agate]

just sort your dock per AVI stat

[whole crypt]

it's just uni/FS

and I just dropped the cost a few more oil as it turns out you don't need the boss fleet to fight

[white agate]

yeah, i went uni eldkai for everything

rest was crossfleet

[whole crypt]

it only didn't work last time because I forgot Uni didn't have a fighter

boss fleet was just Musashi/Kronshtadt anyway

[kind slate]

um guys i dropped my phone on my face and this happened. how do i go back to normal

[white agate]

hide

[whole crypt]

top left, hide

[ocean terrace]

is that doable without crossfleet and meh gear

[kind slate]

oh thnx guys

[vagrant tusk]

ohhh okay guys, thank you everyone

[kind slate]

just curious, what did i do? how do i achieve this screen again?

[whole crypt]

cross fleet was Musashi/Kronshtadt, if you don't have any working URs should still be doable at worst with a 1:2 or 2:1

[onyx flame]

its a troubleshooting screen, something about pinching the top and bottom of your game

[kind slate]

i see. thank you

[tulip tinsel]

wait new skin not ägir?

[ocean terrace]

is there a way to turn off the notification for reaching max showdown loggers?

[ocean terrace]

its my beautiful queen prinz eugen, tho the artist is Agir's

[tulip tinsel]

thought for sure that's ägir

[ocean terrace]

yeah Agir artist plus usual AL inflation

@whole crypt could you let me know how to

[alpine ermine]

Does unknown in the guild shop mean that the elite ship is the first one is that unicorn?

[onyx flame]

you can pick what ship you want to get

[bleak junco]

She literally doesn’t have agirs horns and agir doesn’t have ponytails ever…..

Your guys’ observation skills SUCK

[whole crypt]

huh it's obviously eugen

[tulip tinsel]

ok, saw her in jp notes and I can't read jp

[bleak junco]

LITERALLY HOW DO THEY STILL CONFUSE THEM

[ocean terrace]

it's Agir artist though so Eugen's style is clearly different to usual

[whole crypt]

agir is just eugen+ though

[onyx flame]

eugen zwei

[alpine ermine]

OK, thank you sorry I’m using my voice to type. Also, I’m a very new player plus I’m old. Am I supposed to burn through my oil until I get to where I can use canteen oil? I have excess oil. Also, should I be doing the event or should I be trying to get to chapter 9? I’m on chapter 3.

[inland shoal]

It's understandable tbh, Ägir artist can only draw Ägir eyes and booba
At any rate skins do not yet count as gameplay

[bleak junco]

yes, still it’s not agir and it’s obvious it’s not agir if you pay attention to the physical attributes

[ocean terrace]

agreed, I never confused her with Agir but understandable if you do

they even forgot her signature mole

[tulip tinsel]

i just looked at her hair once and thought it looked like ägir

[bleak junco]

Maybe it’s hiding behind her arm << benefit of the doubt

[ocean terrace]

no they showed it where theres no mole
hopefully they fix it

[inland shoal]

Yes, capping on canteen oil is bad. If you're on ch 3 I'm afraid you won't get very far in the event, but still best to start it and at least do the x3 on normal mode

[verbal plinth]

fight about it in gen not here

[alpine ermine]

OK, thank you again sorry I’m using my voice. Should I be summoning a ship every day with the cubes?

[inland shoal]

Well outside of events you do a light pull every day. During the event you pull on the event pool. As you have very limited resources I'd recommend doing 3 pulls a day, saving up so you can maybe try to go for Lexii on the final day

[alpine ermine]

OK, thank you

[sinful relic]

does saratoga get a boost or something? lexi2 was complenting her in battle???

[inland shoal]

-# Also ngl surprised how well your voice recognition works

[inland shoal]

No it's just an extra line https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Lexington_II/Quotes

[white agate]

does the popularity pull uses CN,JP,Gl votes all togheter from all servers?

[verbal plinth]

each get there own

[whole crypt]

separate and they have their own separate podiums

[whole crypt]

it's somewhere in gameplay options to ping you when you reach 100/200/off coords

[ocean terrace]

found it ty

[eternal basalt]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Popularity_Poll

[onyx flame]

does the high eff plan help for farming hvars

[forest palm]

sorta? you double the rolls per run, so it may net you more per run, this doesn't mean it'll double the drop itself just give you 2 rolls per drop

[onyx flame]

timer saver good enuf i suppose

[fluid flower]

Is ultrich von still good ?

[stone sluice]

You gotta factor in how quick your morale drops

[eternal basalt]

Do note you can farm them ETERNALLY in WA now

[sinful relic]

uhh odd question, i know shes not exactly the best but i wouldnt be able to sneak in Amagi (SR) into my fleet would i? (im totally not coping)

[onyx flame]

i mean you can use her just not for hard content

[sinful relic]

hard content? like w12?

[forest palm]

14/15, Arbiter stuff like that

[eternal basalt]

14-15-16

[verbal plinth]

hasset leaked w16

[fluid flower]

Is she still good

[sinful relic]

ohh okay. i havent seen what w14+ looks like so uh

[viscid swift]

Hassat confirmed game dev

[sinful relic]

hassat gib enty retofit frfr

[forest palm]

Amagi BC is basically relevant for 95% of content

[fluid flower]

Dam thank god i only spent 4 cubes on her

[viscid swift]

considering we lumped W1-13 into just one guide and W14 and 15 have their own seperate sections that should give you some idea

[sinful relic]

BC? you mean CV?

[eternal basalt]

Okay, note dowm give code G retro

[forest palm]

no, BC is the SSR ver, UR ver is CV

[sinful relic]

OH

okay that makes me happy i can use amagi. thank you. hehehe timeto marry

[eternal basalt]

They said SR

[forest palm]

same shit

no need to be pedantic

[sinful relic]

ooh

knowing myself, i prob wont leave w12 anytime soon LOL

[analog tendon]

time to test if i can auto 1-1 the mobs in D3

btw how is D3 exp-wise compared to 12-1 and 12-4?

[eternal basalt]

Jusy use oilcap

[ocean terrace]

10-3 level of rewards iirc

regardless you want event points and HVAR prints too

[sinful relic]

oil cap? da heck

[analog tendon]

until now i'd been using a 2-2 mob fleet with Uni + 3 ships i want to level up, but i'm running low on oil (AS USUAL )

[ocean terrace]

full fleet since there's oil cap on D3

[sinful relic]

OH okay yeah ive been doing that

i was like so confused for asecond

[eternal basalt]

2-2 will hit oilcap, you only hurt yourself

[analog tendon]

ok i overestimated the D3 mobs, Uni + Laffey was more than enough
i probably got spooked by how hard EX trashed me XD

[alpine ermine]

I got Lexington II. I only have one copy of her and I’m free to play. I just got really lucky. Should I use her? I just started playing.

[ocean terrace]

you'd want to mlb her before using her

[eternal basalt]

UnLMB UR are thrash

[alpine ermine]

Taihou. I also got her. It says she is the gold one. I don’t know what it’s called. I’m very new. Should I use her?

[viscid swift]

https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/progression-guide/

[ocean terrace]

isn't newbie tips more suitable for brand new players

[viscid swift]

I mean

[ocean terrace]

ah

[fluid flower]

Am out of gold how to get mote gold

[viscid swift]

grind

[fluid flower]

I did but they keep dissapearing

[whole crypt]

watch your spending

[fluid flower]

Ok

[analog tendon]

buy coins with gems
don't ask me about this suggestion, i'm pretty sure you don't want to know the answer

[fluid flower]

All my gems went to skins and storage 🥀

[knotty jolt]

You only buy coins with gems if you truly don't give a rats ass about stuff

[ocean terrace]

or you're filthy rich

[whole crypt]

I don't give much of a rat's ass but I still just grind for coins

[obtuse island]

you gotta be bold to buy skins as a f2p

[upbeat wagon]

never spend gems on coin

[whole crypt]

what else are you going to do with oil

[fluid flower]

Yes

[ocean terrace]

I mean their name speaks for itself

[fluid flower]

To bad i dont even kow how to use gems for coins

[white agate]

there are also dorm items for gems

[fluid flower]

Noted

[ocean terrace]

is there a way to get purple retroprints? haven't got any from 2 days of hard mode

[knotty jolt]

you can consolidate blues to purples

[fluid flower]

Idk medal shop prob ?

[whole crypt]

you can craft blue to purple but I'd recommend just waiting unless you have a lot of blues

[white agate]

combine blues

[ocean terrace]

I have already but expensive as shit

6 to 1

[knotty jolt]

other then that, guild shop, medal exchange, and such are your other options

[ocean terrace]

damn medal shop is expensive but I just have enough, ty

[upbeat wagon]

Should I buy blueprints from medal shop?

[white agate]

no

[ocean terrace]

I only needed 3 more prints to fully retrofit Independence, only reason why I bought it

[upbeat wagon]

No the research blueprints

[ocean terrace]

grab SR bulins and spec cores, then you could I guess

default for CV augment is scepter right? should all my CVs have it or is it safe to have a hunting bow or 2

[true lichen]

The cost for doing the x3 runs is too much, like 450 oil for one stage. Am i not better off just doing d3 3 times, get the same amount of currency and save 100 oil

[proper violet]

If I havent gotten cleveland meta, should I just use event money, or pull for it

[fluid flower]

Event currency

[white agate]

there are still 20 days fr her to drop from sp and D3 map drops

[proper violet]

Should I wait till the end of the event or just get it now

[fluid flower]

Unless your still pulling for lexi then prob

[onyx flame]

just wait till the end of the event

[white agate]

end of the event, the shop lives like 1 week after the event anyway

[proper violet]

Awe ok, true

I struggle with opsi 6 bosses what is the trick

[white agate]

math ain't mathing

[viscid swift]

get more adapts for one if you aren't already at the effective cap

[fluid flower]

id just yolo and use all my fleet and repair box thing

[white agate]

playing manual if ur fleet is weak, also using regroup and rest

[proper violet]

Yeah that has worked so far, but cutting it close sometimes

[fluid flower]

Am to stupid to learn opsi so i just yolo

[ebon verge]

mlb-ing a ship doesnt give tech bonus right?

[white agate]

no, only faction tech points

[proper violet]

Same tho

[fluid flower]

Heheheh

Also whats is york towns meta armor again heavy or midium ?

[ocean terrace]

dw there's an up and coming soon opsi guide by an expert

[ocean terrace]

med

[fluid flower]

Aight

[white agate]

tbh opsi is pretty easy unless you refer to hard arbiter, i did it at the times when the best BB was howe(actually it was fdg, but lol i had not farmed her prints) and it was doable

[fluid flower]

I hate doing opsi puzzle

[white agate]

just farm the 3 main stats, do 1 boss fleet and 1 mob fleet and it should serve you for like 90% of opsi

[onyx flame]

arent puzzle on in campaign? once you finish it you never see it again plus tb give you a imma do it for you if you keep failing

[white agate]

anyhow the mole is there, video in news

[ocean terrace]

thankfully, people were complaining about it after JP stream

[fluid flower]

Takes like 10mins till she does that

[onyx flame]

agir skin stolen for eugen

[ocean terrace]

she already got a skin recently so they had to use Eugen this time

[verbal plinth]

might been as simple as the artist forgot

[tranquil vine]

whats the uhh build times of the event botes

[verbal plinth]

pins i think has times

[onyx flame]

4:25:00 is lexi2 is all i rmb

[ocean terrace]

same as all essex-class

[tranquil vine]

then what to heck did i make with 5:15

[cobalt robin]

formi

[onyx flame]

prob impero

or well the vv class

[gilded carbon]

do we have a verdict now if Lex2 is worth the Bulins?

past potential Waifu and new UR?

or did i miss that discussion today

[onyx flame]

still too earlier

[cobalt rapids]

all URs are worth their bulins
its just a matter what u prio

[fluid flower]

She looks decent enough for bulins

[verbal plinth]

wont have a boss worth testing for awhile

[fluid flower]

Is there a current tier list for diffrent ships ?

Oh alr thx

[bright tusk]

Wut best aux for i404? Also she better flag or off?

[bleak junco]

Okay, before I REALLY buy it, should I get the next skin pack (the one coming next week) or this? Yes, it’s the one with the UR bulin, and no, I don’t have any of the x2 gems left. Also, the outfit packs cost 40 dollars for me, while this costs 50. I wanna make sure I buy the most valuable thing lol

[cobalt rapids]

doesnt need flag

[bleak junco]

I think I can ask about this here but. I don’t know I just saw people do that in the past

[fluid flower]

Is NJ still usable

[white agate]

its all +13😭

[atomic abyss]

yes

[fluid flower]

Poggers

[atomic abyss]

usable is a low bar lol

low end ur bb, but still ur bb

[fluid flower]

shes ligit my first wife

[bleak junco]

Okay but seriously what do I get I can’t decide gruuuuujh I need more opinions

[ivory pawn]

If you get a skin you want the skin pack should be more gems/dollar.
if you don’t then the bulin pack is more gems/dollar.

[bleak junco]

I do want the skins, but I currently have 2700 gems, so I think I could buy them all if I just get more gems? And I’m a little scared to gamble and get a skin I don’t want 😭 that’s why I’m unsure

By all I mean the skins I want not literally all of them

[fluid flower]

Id say yolo and gamble

[bleak junco]

[ivory pawn]

If you’re unsure, I’d lean towards the bulin pack.

[bleak junco]

Okay I’m just gonna get the pack lol I’m not risking it

[fluid flower]

[cobalt robin]

how many prints for rocketcat?

[knotty jolt]

25

[cobalt robin]

35k and only 10 prints ffs

[bleak junco]

Okay I think i did something cuz it won’t let me buy it. It just says “invalid repeat response” or whatever

[cobalt robin]

restart

[knotty jolt]

have you tried the ol turn it off and on again?

[bleak junco]

Yeah, for some reason I still get the message

Lemme try again lol…….

[cobalt robin]

restart fixed that problem for me

[bleak junco]

Okay it worked once I restarted 2 times lol

[knotty jolt]

the turn it off and on again rarely fails

[fluid flower]

Third time the charm

[eager mulch]

[ivory sigil]

how to watch them again there isnt any button to rewatch ???

[tranquil vine]

where do i find these

[viscid swift]

memories

[ivory sigil]

cant find, does they appear after event ends?

[ivory pawn]

Memories > Memories to get to the above screen.

[ivory sigil]

[cobalt rapids]

#media-content message

[tranquil vine]

oh its a youtuber

i was gonna look up the one for wdp

[cobalt rapids]

yea and he didnt update the gear reccs in the vid
berry bad

[cobalt robin]

you mean it rarely works

[knotty jolt]

for azur lane it rarely fails

[whole crypt]

a lot of weird shit for AL happens to be desync issues that get fixed after a relog or client restart

[ivory sigil]

Man after played for 4 weeks in finally see my gold getting abundant

[vital meadow]

How good is the new shop plane

[cobalt rapids]

better dmg faster suisei 12a
good for when ur timing stuff

[tranquil vine]

what be the best rainbow torpedo to go for for WDP

[ivory sigil]

Eh accord to suchi she want fast torp

[warm latch]

rainbow torps arent the best torps anyway

[cobalt rapids]

she can take the twin blue ones

[clear harbor]

If you're like me, there will be a period of time where you'll have more coins than you know what to do with.

[cobalt rapids]

i hope ill get there 🙏

[clear harbor]

It was only like, 1 to 2 weeks though.

[tranquil vine]

i wanna bling out my wdp with a buncha rainbows tho

[clear harbor]

Maybe I wasn't spending on stuff I was supposed to be spending on. 😅

[warm latch]

shiny doesnt mean best

[viscid swift]

I mean you can but she'll perform better without it

she's another pea shooter and fast torps girl

[tranquil vine]

ok then whats the fastest firing rainbow torp

[warm latch]

you dont, theyre too slow

[tranquil vine]

thats not my question

[warm latch]

literally 10s slower than the blue torps

[viscid swift]

this is the "budget" and one of the best loadouts for her

[cobalt rapids]

shima torps are faster than rainbow quint mags

[ivory sigil]

Fast

Twin 550 (real fast)

Triple 550 (real fast)

Duo-Duo (fast+dmg)

[warm latch]

you just dont, the rainbow torps are just bad on ships built around fast torps

[viscid swift]

I'm not sure where she sits yet on the reload break point yet

[cobalt rapids]

let the man bling his ship

[tranquil vine]

i need max shiny on the goober daughter

[warm latch]

if you just want shiny then it being good doesnt matter

[wary skiff]

musashi or yt2 for perm banner ur pity?

[warm latch]

because its simply not going to be good

[cobalt rapids]

depends on the state of ur bbs and the state of ur cvs ( lexy mainly )

[whole crypt]

what's her RLD@125

[wary skiff]

lexington is maxed, state of bbs good

[viscid swift]

well and if they have HVARs in quantity

[cobalt rapids]

wdym they can farm hvars right now

[viscid swift]

do you have or plan to get 4-5 HVARs?

[cobalt rapids]

well idk if ur good is my good but then u can take yk2

[ivory sigil]

i might get roasted for giving shtty advice but since building her is already something D... i guess i can suggest

i think you need a wiki for Torp with statistic and pick the rainbow one with fastest speed u can choose

[wary skiff]

currently 0 but yes. i have like 40k oil to burn

[viscid swift]

that's what 2-3 max?

[tranquil vine]

thats what im thinking, go find the fastest rainbow torp and use that

[warm latch]

both of the rainbow torps are the 2 slowest torps

[wary skiff]

i dont play the game regularly enough so im fine with waiting for enough to get anouther 2-3 in the future'

[ivory sigil]

but gotta warn ya, there could be worse case scenario that none of them are faster than gold

[warm latch]

but the one thats good on manual is faster than the one thats good on auto

[viscid swift]

well your only other option would be to farm Yorktown 2's WA

which is gonna be very time gated

[wary skiff]

yea i was planning to do that post, i got 60 of the certs saved

[whole crypt]

assuming what I see is WDP's RLD@125 without oath she can use gold gun
you reach breakpoint even with no tech no oath with GB+oxy

double oxy can hit breakpoint with 22 or higher RLD tech

[cobalt rapids]

which breakpoint are u talking about

[whole crypt]

gold peashooter

[wary skiff]

is it essex / yt2 / lexi now?

[whole crypt]

(Kear/Lion)/YT2/LexII

[whole crypt]

yes that's roughly what it's based on

[cobalt rapids]

but she reaches the breakpoint even without GB or oxy or anything

[whole crypt]

what's her RLD, the translated not-datamine says 243

[cobalt rapids]

125 love is 243 yes

[whole crypt]

I'm looking at hitting the 290+

[tranquil vine]

where is that torp even from

[cobalt rapids]

thats why i asked which one

[rain vine]

season 8 research

[tranquil vine]

ah

...is it even decent in terms of personal damage

[whole crypt]

it's better damage than blue torps if you want a fast torp that's not a wet noodle

[cobalt rapids]

its worse than quad mags unless u get extra launches and the ship has barrages that proc on torps to compensate

[whole crypt]

in most cases unless the ship's torps are not relevant it's just much more painless to throw on a quad mag

[white agate]

ok, who was next in line after warkai as UR ship?

[viscid swift]

FDG and Azuma I think

[atomic abyss]

warkai came out after PR2

[viscid swift]

so Drake then

[atomic abyss]

so it shd have been drake i guess

i dont think poi kai was before drake

[white agate]

guess we won't see augm for nano, azuma and fdg then

[whole crypt]

poikai is shima age

[viscid swift]

also that's only if you look at EN

[weary edge]

so where is yorktown II on the perma exchange priority list?

[whole crypt]

depends

[atomic abyss]

[sweet delta]

new players still arent recommended to do pr6 for kear

[white agate]

above means: low prio,still get her

[stark quiver]

Did kear fs come out

[woven star]

WA little bit easier for framing HVARs than this event cuz no suicide ships. Lowest oil team which I found near 117 oil per run. While in this event this team died very fast

[viscid swift]

ok

[white agate]

ok, gl doing what? like 3 runs per day? 6 with the booster

[stark quiver]

Skill issue
Id rather farm and use now then spent maybe a year farming 4 runs a day

[white agate]

is it 4 tokens per day? thought it was 3

[woven star]

Idk if ppl find some lowest oil team for this D3 event. I know it work for B3 but no fighters drop

[forest palm]

just level ships, and buy oil :^)

[whole crypt]

not sure how low you want to go but Uni/FS or something of the like should work fine

[woven star]

Not sure buster have double drop gear parts. For sure no drop for sr ship. Idk about gears

[white agate]

can also just trow a 3:3 fleet to level your ships in the current event

[whole crypt]

the problem is you can run basically as much D3 as you want now as far as time and oil permits, but you can only do up to 4 doubles of archive a day

[white agate]

booster double ship drops too in theory, its just that it rolls the ship 2 times distinct

[undone plover]

is there a CN/JP or even EN gear skin tier list or chart especially a list of the ones that have sfx changes

[white agate]

anyhow, i think i may have 3 HVAR to assemble, maybe 4 if i had assembled one, so guess i should be fine

[cobalt rapids]

theres skins with sfx changes ?

[undone plover]

i meant the gear skins that have some oomph to them
arent there ones that do sth sth

[whole crypt]

I'm just running D3 because reasons
it's shit for leveling the new ships because slot reqs

[boreal wagon]

i believe sir von fearlein means vfx

[inland shoal]

sfx = sound effects, you probs mean vfx (on hit)

[cobalt rapids]

vfx
all cruise pass skins have vfx changes afaik

[undone plover]

yes

[whole crypt]

man hears his vision it's fine

[undone plover]

[undone plover]

list doko

[cobalt rapids]

does it matter if they are unattainable
afaik none of the ones in arcade have vfx

[tranquil vine]

im guessing its gonna take forever to get this?
also does it actually fire four torps

[whole crypt]

it fires 2+2 torps

[cobalt rapids]

it fires duo duos

[tranquil vine]

so its like the triple+double one

[white agate]

should be pretty fast, like around one month or a bit more

[whole crypt]

also you can finish a copy in like maybe 2 weeks

[undone plover]

community slacking smh

[inland shoal]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Equipment_Skins

Wow this was so difficult to find

[boreal wagon]

its also incomplete

[whole crypt]

that averages to uhhh 1.6 copies a month?

[undone plover]

wiki is still alive ?

[inland shoal]

Yeah I assumed so

[knotty jolt]

barely

[inland shoal]

But at least it's a list

[woven star]

And updated

[boreal wagon]

but i mean if all you need is a list of all gear skins in the game i do have tho

[undone plover]

so outside of cruise pass the other ones are all without any vfx?

[knotty jolt]

wiki on life support

[boreal wagon]

but if they have vfx youll have to check urself

[inland shoal]

Or even if they're cruise pass

[boreal wagon]

no there are a few with vfx

[boreal wagon]

i mean i also have all passes so not too hard to find them all

[cobalt rapids]

about that yea

[inland shoal]

All the important info (aka ships, augs and equips) is always up to date

[whole crypt]

is renhex also part of 3 gun gang?

[hollow gust]

wait arent you at your 3rd planee? my UR gun luck is so ass

[inland shoal]

Sure, but incredibly annoying to get an overview

[whole crypt]

third what plane

[undone plover]

maybe i should work on this
anyway thanks but if anyone knows sth from CN/JP pls share

[hollow gust]

sorry gun

[whole crypt]

I'm forced to work on my 4th one now because I don't want spare prints

[hollow gust]

but either way im at 195 torps, and only 90/100 -_-

[undone plover]

smh all these 0.8+ pacers

[cobalt rapids]

when the steak is too juicy and the lobster too buttery

[viscid swift]

I have 2 now

[inland shoal]

I'm at 190 torps and 80/100

[cobalt rapids]

wait do u guys count ur crafted torps prints ?

[viscid swift]

La-9 print number 250 is a bitch though

[hollow gust]

this is so bullshit

[woven star]

Meck guns

[sweet delta]

with 150 rainbow gun bps you should have about 300 of each gold bp, so that means ure lucky for rainbow

[inland shoal]

Bold of you to assume I crafted a gear in the past year

[tranquil vine]

my only real idea for how to mix wdp personal damage and support capability is trying to tune my fleet so that her torp launches just before everyone uses their nukes

[whole crypt]

if you add crafted then 199+25

[viscid swift]

I'm at like 200 torp prints for 100 Meck gun gun prints

[white agate]

what was meck gun? i mean the image

[onyx flame]

quad 305? iirc

[tranquil vine]

im really trying to keep wdp's personal damage decent

[scenic mesa]

How do you unlock the sp and ex nodes at the event?

[sweet delta]

clear D3

[white agate]

D3

[cobalt rapids]

this isnt the wdp decked in bling i heard about

[whole crypt]

I'm considering whether I should bother looking for La-9 print no.262

[white agate]

welp, i kinda slacked, i am half pace of the others

[hollow gust]

then get her better equipment

[tranquil vine]

i want to

i dont have the blingest of bling yet

[white agate]

how many did we want of these btw?

[viscid swift]

3

[tranquil vine]

ok but the generic "give her blue equips lol" completely tanks her personal damage

[viscid swift]

no it doesn't

[woven star]

Btw isn't WdP barrage scale from torp?

[stark quiver]

not like she had any to begin with

[cobalt rapids]

poor ppl should stick to poorly colored ( and better ) gear then

[viscid swift]

well it does for her torps a bit but not her guns

[hollow gust]

[tranquil vine]

what

what do you mean her barrage that triggers from gun scales on torp

[viscid swift]

the Single 76mm is roughly equivilent to the UR 100 kai for damage on her

[whole crypt]

we legally don't know what the barrage scales from 🙂

[whole crypt]

this is fairly common and there's no need to shout

[sweet delta]

leveling her skills would help with that

[tranquil vine]

sorry im just very surprised

[stark quiver]

are cuni torps good

[hollow gust]

that torp is actually good?

[tranquil vine]

i have given wdp a rainbow oxytorp

[sweet delta]

not if you want to sync with flagship

[white agate]

are there very good gold from pr8?

[whole crypt]

wait what am I missing besides 457 here

[viscid swift]

Plymouth gun

[polar venture]

Should I try to go for Lexington 2?

[whole crypt]

oh right

[errant jacinth]

at what point can I expect to actually beat able to clear opsi?

[sweet delta]

why wouldn't you go for a new UR

[errant jacinth]

rn I just mogged by anything above corruption 3

[white agate]

after like 1 month, maybe less now that game has beginner missions

[sweet delta]

level 120 fleet at least

[viscid swift]

get your adapts up for one

[whole crypt]

adapts
levels
gear

[viscid swift]

OpSi guide coming soon TM

[whole crypt]

™

[errant jacinth]

are these any good?

[viscid swift]

not in the slightest

[errant jacinth]

damn ok 😭

[warm latch]

not mlb = not good

[tranquil vine]

can i go for the rainbow bofors from the gear lab for wdp

[viscid swift]

AA guns

[tranquil vine]

...yes. im talking about the aa gun.

[errant jacinth]

aren't most of the golds MLB? besides the one that are too low lvl'd for it?

[whole crypt]

76mm is basically best AA gun in the game so go for it I guess?

[warm latch]

its your urs that arent good

[viscid swift]

https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/progression-guide/

might wanna reacquaint yourself with some of the basics

[undone plover]

if u are a new player check this first https://suchiguma.github.io/miniguides/gear-lab/

[tranquil vine]

i uhh mean this. its 57mm, not 76mm

[undone plover]

it is good but no longer relevant

[white agate]

nooo, the better ine s the round one

[undone plover]

powercreeped

[errant jacinth]

ohh I can't really MLB them, except maybe lexi 2 but I'm still missing 1 more bulin for her

[warm latch]

and ur aa guns are lower priority than guns and planes

so you just dont use them until they are mlb

[tranquil vine]

this one then?

[viscid swift]

yes

[tranquil vine]

i want a rainbow aa gun because bling lol

[tranquil vine]

will work towards this one

[undone plover]

but read the link I shared
some of the mats are shared with other higher prio gear

[warm latch]

dont nuke your progress in getting actual good gear just to have shiny things for one ship

[tranquil vine]

i have so many equips

[undone plover]

[tranquil vine]

(mostly just gear box and a few research stuff)
(oh and some event gear)

[viscid swift]

yeah but how many are actually decent

[tranquil vine]

zero idea!

[viscid swift]

https://suchiguma.github.io/miniguides/quick-gear-guide

[errant jacinth]

I've been following that rule, it's why most of my SRs are MLB

[polar venture]

Idk i thought maybe the new ur is only good if you have x character or something

[tranquil vine]

my plane selection is very scuffed

[whole crypt]

but do you have a reason to skip her

LexII is still fairly good by herself regardless

[sweet delta]

well lexii is only good if you have yorkii or kear or both but what are you saving for if not a new UR? Saving for a gold ship who's not good even if you have xyz characters?

[viscid swift]

then why are you leveling NJ and Lexington 2 when you have no bullins for them

[polar venture]

Oh ok thanks for the heads up

[whole crypt]

new URs are always just get first think later
eventually you have enough cubes to not care anyway

[errant jacinth]

for Lexi, I'm just missing 1 bulin for her and I'm close to buying it in the shop
NJ, I've just had for a while so I was originally gonna MLB her but probs won't now

[viscid swift]

and why are you using those underleveled ships for OpSi, particularly NJ when you have a level 123 Owari just sitting there

if nothing else

[sweet delta]

they're using Owari

[errant jacinth]

yeah that was my fleet two in that screenshot

[sweet delta]

you can see her as flagship in the blurred map

[errant jacinth]

it forced me to make 4 fleet so I just tossed whatever in

[viscid swift]

just keep grinding levels on your ships(not NJ)

[errant jacinth]

and MLB lexi right? NJ is kinda bad from what I've heard

[viscid swift]

yes

[white agate]

how many LA-9 did we need again? 3 or 4?

[tranquil vine]

what does automatic exchange do for opsi strategic search

[undone plover]

4 has been used in some meta fleets

[white agate]

excange the pink thing for adaptability stats

[tranquil vine]

so it doesnt replenish energy for searching

[viscid swift]

it doesn't work for mysterious merchant no

[errant jacinth]

this is already better right?

[viscid swift]

yes, much better

[tulip tinsel]

if i don't have yk2 can lex2 kear and essexkai work?

[errant jacinth]

also what should my fleet look like now? I assume I use lexi 2 since she's MLB now

[white agate]

and guess a gold gear at +13 is universally better than its own UR counterpart at +10 right?

[sweet delta]

a gold gear that has an exact UR counterpart cannot be enhanced beyond +10

so what gears specifically are you asking about?

[white agate]

smh like champy gun vs ur med/heavy gun for example

[hollow gust]

essex probablu better, needs some runs to make sure though

[sweet delta]

lion kear lexii

[sweet delta]

+13 champ is better assuming that the timing works

[undone plover]

is this actually a thing

[warm latch]

just get yk2 from next perma pity

[sweet delta]

I mean if rainbow is T3 and gold is T2. The T2 cannot be enhacnced past +10

[hollow gust]

wait i read that wrong

[undone plover]

ah i see what u mean

[errant jacinth]

is smth like this good?

[hollow gust]

whats hatsu doing

[viscid swift]

for now but you wanna get a 2nd fleet going sooner rather than later

[hollow gust]

also that vanguard is really underleveled

[errant jacinth]

I didn't know what else to put there 😭

[errant jacinth]

yeah my other vanguards aren't much better sadly

[hardy anchor]

Is the new plane in the event shop good or bad? Like if you have tenrais, is it just for collection?

[errant jacinth]

is this any better then? I’m working on retrofitting portland rn (really limited for second fleet tbh)

[hollow gust]

you eventually want to seperate Uni into the mob fleet

bring over origami

[errant jacinth]

oh so switch uni for origami?

[hollow gust]

when fleet 2 is lveled up correctly

[errant jacinth]

and there's not rlly a way to lvl besides just doing campain/event stages right? dorm is pretty slow

[hollow gust]

well there are also the exp packs

[errant jacinth]

ohh I get so little of them that I forget they exist 😭

[proper violet]

They add up over time

But always at 0 lmao

[timid fox]

Out of the three starter ships who's the best to pick

[white agate]

mainly if you have few over level 100 ships and academy level low you get few

[cobalt rampart]

hello, sorry for lot of pics and tezt dump. I just hit world 9, which i think is where people say to do 2 fleets. the first few pics are sorted by vanguard, and then main. i have a lot of gold and purple bullins, can have 2 UR ones, 3 soon, and about 500 xp packs. i also can get new jersey or shinano post 9-4. I feel like my biggest fleet hole is lack of bbs other than hood? would appreciate advice on comps to do with this. saint louis also only has about 15% combat data left before i can unlock her, but afaik she womt be very good until i get the prints for her

[proper violet]

The cutest

[cobalt rampart]

the guide said javelin but commuity favorite seems to be laffey

[tranquil vine]

the merchant is how i get rainbow blueprint things for the gear lab, right?

[proper violet]

And I went z

[undone plover]

laffey is better for EU tech
Z23 for KMS tech
I prefer EU tech for starters

[proper violet]

KMS is so painfull

Gotta get a leg on it

[errant jacinth]

yeah I only have 6 ships over lvl 100 but my lecture hall is maxed for my commander lvl

[viscid swift]

Mob: Hood, Unicorn, Cowpens, Yamai Sisters, Javelin, Glowworm
Boss: Maryland/nelson retro, Saratoga, Enterprise, Kurumi, Helena, San Diego

[proper violet]

Would owari be better for mob comp to hood?

[tranquil vine]

i uhh dunno how to get the materials for rainbow gear lab equips

[viscid swift]

yes

[upbeat wagon]

opsi

[proper violet]

Hot diggity dogs

[upbeat wagon]

iirc opsi is the only way

[proper violet]

Opsi rainbow bosses/stages

[tranquil vine]

oh, the boss stages

[proper violet]

Gotta be rainbow

[tranquil vine]

can the merchant have them

[viscid swift]

no

[tranquil vine]

darn

[viscid swift]

I've gotten rainbow BP drops from C3 before

[proper violet]

Not gotta be rainbow?

[viscid swift]

no, where did that notion come from

[proper violet]

Damn never seen that, rare af?

[viscid swift]

yes

[proper violet]

Yeah ok, but reliably gotten from rainbow stages

[viscid swift]

C6 abyssals you mean

I wouldn't even call that a reliable source

[proper violet]

Oh there is a more reliable way?

[viscid swift]

besides the shops and the arbiter drop not really

[proper violet]

Oh so it's the most reliable way to go for those?

[viscid swift]

sorry I meant arbiter

either way, you want to do everything anyway

[proper violet]

Frfr

[tulip tinsel]

the problem with c6 abyssal is that you might get one but get hit with torp or aa ur bp

[white agate]

the aa one is kinda decent, the sub one tho

[tulip tinsel]

which happened to me a few times, making me angry

[hybrid forge]

What is this, why I do have 28 of them, adn why do I get the "important gear" warning when I try to scrap some of them

[sweet delta]

they come with Empery CVLs and you get a warning because the devs said so

[robust onyx]

Scrap them anyway, they take up equipment space and are useless

[white agate]

1 dockspace=6 depot slot

[tranquil vine]

so do i just strategic sesrch everything then do the strongholds after?

[static harbor]

Good Light plane setup for Lex 2?

Using this atm

[rain bobcat]

hvar ad1 hvar

[static harbor]

Oh we are good then

Ah, I have no more HVAR for Kearsage, fuhg

[hollow gust]

just grind it, its in d3 rn

[static harbor]

This events D3?

Thank God, didnt want to do the York 2 event thing since it puts me all the way back

[eternal basalt]

And after it's over you can get more on York II's event

[hollow plank]

did i get it right, i convert all combat data pck series 1-4 so i get prototype cores

then for the blueprints of the PR ships , i also sell all of it or convert it rather so i just basically use coins to level the fate? did i get that right? thanks

[eternal basalt]

You need to do maps only once, 5 runs to be at D3

[static harbor]

Gotcha

So new event plane is still worse than heck diver, just faster?

[weary edge]

must be nice, ive done 100 pulls and i dont have any character but 4 cowpens

the character i wanted the least

[errant mauve]

How many copies of wyvern do you need

[white agate]

like 2 should be more than enough i think, unless i am confusing it with the tenrai

[errant mauve]

But also how many copies of tenrai

[errant jacinth]

tbf I used all my bulins for that cause I only got 1 dupe

[eternal basalt]

It's 3 weeks, you can pull 3 a day for eventpoints and a chance at ship

[fast frigate]

rip

[river junco]

1-2 tenrai, it’s only used if there is a forced db slot on ijn carriers like shinano (iirc, I think shinano has forced db slot)

[errant mauve]

Ok ty

[misty tree]

Are HVARCat rates up? Im already at 26 prints with 17k oil

[harsh cargo]

Is the event fighter for Lexington II?

[hollow gust]

its a bomber

[harsh cargo]

O

[hollow gust]

which is why its doodoo

[harsh cargo]

So not for her

[hollow gust]

its bad for everyone

[viscid swift]

it's good for 4 strike Yorktown 2 in META showdowns

[zenith heron]

someone said it best, its a faster Suisei

[hollow gust]

damn you have to neuter her DB slot? that sucks

[viscid swift]

yes but it's faster and does more damage than Suisei Kai

[sweet delta]

~~Just bench Yorkii ~~

[hollow gust]

fuuuck i have a +13 Suisei already

[white agate]

i lack gold plates

[verbal plinth]

There's a lot other planes have higher prio imo

[white agate]

yeah, i lack gp for those too

[elfin hollow]

guys still farming the event for the ur. as well farming for shimanto last exp count with Unzen mjintsu and shimakaze any other shipgirl for more exp?

[viscid swift]

Shimanto only needs vanguards XP

[sweet delta]

Meta ship doesn't count

[knotty jolt]

Might aswell swap in yuubari in place of meta jintsuu

[elfin hollow]

i know but if there was a ship like amazon to get more exp

[viscid swift]

Yuubari but she's what torp

[white agate]

not worth it

[viscid swift]

I'd prioritize better ships and tech before her

[knotty jolt]

that's yuubari

[valid forge]

is it worth getting 3x event points on event stages?

[white agate]

since you can farm HVAR may as well do just D3, else yes, with low oil fleets

[elfin hollow]

can i get her from shop or story farm for her? as well good to know

[valid forge]

ok i'll just d3

[knotty jolt]

light construction iirc only

[elfin hollow]

i see i see ,thanks

[cobalt gate]

so no news on chapter 16 right

[viscid swift]

nope

[peak fable]

is the second copy of the event shop UR worth farming for? no, right?

[viscid swift]

I'd say yes

[peak fable]

UR bulins worth that much oil?

I'm completely down for that, was just wondering

[viscid swift]

it's not that much oil you can earn something like 415 vouchers without exchanging any over the course of the event

[muted wind]

only not worth it if you have more than enough ur bulins to spare

[cobalt gate]

yes for players who still have non max ur ships

[peak fable]

oh, that part I didnt know

well, thanks, I'll leave keep some event currency on the side

[cobalt gate]

cowpen vs aqualia?

[viscid swift]

honestley she might be a better Zuiho

again might

[slow barn]

Can anyone recommend one of these so i can put mlb?

[viscid swift]

what are your other URs

[viscid swift]

toss up between Lexington 2 and Fritz Rumey

[slow barn]

The new DD isn't good?

[hollow gust]

she is decent but you jabe enough vanguards

[sweet delta]

Lexii is a prerequisite for her being significantly good, although she can also be good in any fleet that doesn't need z52 tankiness

[verbal plinth]

Fritz imo or if you like Raff for mob

[slow barn]

Ok, thanks guys.

[hollow gust]

they do not need raffey

[sweet delta]

They don't need any UR fr

[woven star]

Yeah. Think so Raff is not necessary. At least for now. Fritz good choice or Lex2

[errant jacinth]

the new DD is clarence right?

[cobalt robin]

and wdp

they were referring to willy d in that case

[hollow gust]

missus willy

[errant jacinth]

ngl that's a great name

[fluid brook]

Do someone got New Jersey Race Queen Interactions?

Remember someone dropping a few images for the instructions

[stark quiver]

@rain bobcat copy this guys nick lol

[quasi nymph]

how much oil does a hvar plane takes on average

cause i have burnt through like 8-10k today and only got 4 blueprints

only have 47k more in reserves

[hollow gust]

luck based

[quasi nymph]

nah brochado rng has it's limits

[eternal basalt]

You can spend the WHOLE of 2026 grinding it, so no worries

[hollow gust]

the rich really get richer

[quasi nymph]

at this pace i will only get 1 plane from the whole event

[hollow gust]

war archive is a thing, you are fine

[quasi nymph]

when did light plane got added in archives ?

[hollow gust]

when yorktown got added, so a few days ago

[quasi nymph]

lol

[eternal basalt]

When this event went live

[quasi nymph]

and btw are you really a new player ?

[hollow gust]

ya

[quasi nymph]

seems kinda old for someone who joined the server in 2019

but i could be wrong

[hollow gust]

im newbie, acc only lvl150

[eternal basalt]

Newb

[hollow gust]

yeah :(

[quasi nymph]

yeah makes sense

[white agate]

i am only lvl 130 i think😭

[quasi nymph]

this game really takes a long time to enter endgame if you are not trying to actually progress seriously

[silent bluff]

Are any of these good?

[hollow gust]

1. Trophy
2. Cowpen and Lexington are very solid ships

[quasi nymph]

kinda funny that these could be your first pulls on the banner

[quasi nymph]

now go ahead and get the planes for them 🤣

[silent bluff]

Yeah

Noted, thank you

[silent bluff]

It is and I'm new

[amber dawn]

[undone plover]

did META skill xp requirements get reduced or sth?
I feel like they reach level 10 much faster last few weeks

[true zenith]

I got every ship from lexii banner, are the 2 additional rolls/day worth the extra event points?

[undone plover]

never worth

[true zenith]

Thanks

[undone plover]

just roll 1x light banner like usual if u got everyone

[white agate]

can't datamine anymore

[ocean terrace]

you said the D word banned

[white agate]

world is not banned, all discussions/questiins pertinent to content derived from it tho are

[viscid swift]

how tf am I ahead of you for commander level

[hollow gust]

cause being a boomer doesnt mean i tryhard, im a casual gamer with alot of endgame gear

[viscid swift]

right....

[white agate]

you c1 :monster: 😭

[knotty jolt]

I'm a year one player and im only commander lv145

[steel hedge]

how do u get meta characters

[white agate]

shodown

[viscid swift]

events meta shop, cruise pass, meta showdown/dossier

[white agate]

or shop and crystals

[steel hedge]

how does that work? i tried it only to get destoryed bruh

[white agate]

you fight till you win

[steel hedge]

💀

[errant jacinth]

dw I get destroyed too but you still get the meta tokens

[deep rivet]

Aside from the AL Wiki, which site gives gear builds for ships, as well as list of ship's function like Baragge BB/BC and Healing BB/BC/CV

[viscid swift]

the wiki doesn't do that and no such site exists

[steel hedge]

what does it do?

[white agate]

@viscid swift lion worth oathing or messes up timing?

[viscid swift]

you'll need at least 2 for both

[white agate]

ectl

[knotty jolt]

you get the tokens to unlock the meta ship

[viscid swift]

https://suchiguma.github.io/miniguides/quick-gear-guide
https://azurlane.mrlar.dev/db/ships

[viscid swift]

if want to sure

[errant jacinth]

you need a lot of them tho 😭

[knotty jolt]

It's not that hard to do.

[stark quiver]

because you are a sweat through and through

[knotty jolt]

For awhile I stopped giving a shit and just sent SOS and let others do my fights for me till i reached 25k points for max limit break on the meta ship

[viscid swift]

I also still farm 12-1 so commander XP income is piss poor

[white agate]

don't we all farm it?

best exp to oil

[knotty jolt]

I sit in 12-4 cause i need the coins more

[viscid swift]

umi started even later than me and he's at 155 now from farming 15-1

[stark quiver]

i am new player only level 142

[true zenith]

whats a good source of northern parliament tech points?

[wary saffron]

How do I unlock SP

[white agate]

d3

[wary saffron]

Where???

[true zenith]

/hardmode

[wary saffron]

[white agate]

\hardmode

😭

[wary saffron]

Thank you thank you

[ocean terrace]

how much more exp does boss fleet give over mob fleets in general?

[white agate]

wiki chapter and then it shows the exp per node

[soft raft]

/ not \ lol

[white agate]

i know, issue is my kyboard

[cobalt robin]

[true zenith]

Is it possible to carry non-MLB level ~30 ships in 12-4?
(basically a bunch of commons im trying to get to lv70 toMLB)

it seems a bit of a stretch

[knotty jolt]

if you hyper manual that shit

[true zenith]

i c thanks!

[viscid swift]

I've run level 1s in 12-1 on auto before

[undone plover]

Boss node u mean?
Cause boss fleet fights only 1 fight so only gets 1x xp
Mob fights usually 6

Around 30% if u mean the node

But now with auto picking up ammo 12-4 is easy to full fight with mob

[ocean terrace]

so boss node is 130% xp of mob

[undone plover]

Sth like that yes

[ocean terrace]

was just wondering how much exp I'd lose for ships I want to level by not using them for boss node, tyyy

[undone plover]

Well that is only 1 node tho
If u want to know how much you are losing by not fighting the boss suchi has a nice chart
Divide the last column by the 3rd one from the right

So around 18% of total

I wonder if 12-4 full mob is easier these days than 12-1
So technically it could be better xp if we assume u fight 12-1 boss with fleet 2

[viscid swift]

well, you'd have to account for the fact the last 2-3 fights will be done below 120 morale

[undone plover]

Only for the last sortie right?

[viscid swift]

yes

[stark quiver]

does that rly matter

[white agate]

when doing 12-1 don't you always everything?

[undone plover]

Yeah would be interesting
If someone uses a max fleet for fleet 2 I am pretty sure 12-4 is better
But 6 xp hungry ships in fleet 2 at <120 morale it becomes closer

[undone plover]

I havent run it with weak ships so far tbh so cant rly say if it is easy

[viscid swift]

no

[undone plover]

And for newbies who lack x-fleet which is harder
12-1 no ammo?
Or 12-4 with ammo?

I have a feeling the 50% debuff is worse

[viscid swift]

not like 12-4 will be a walk in the park either even with cross fleets

[undone plover]

Even with the 7 level difference and 2 bosses

[ocean terrace]

speaking of x-fleet, does it only with mlb ships

[stark quiver]

no

[ocean terrace]

does WillyD's come with mlb, or can I shove her in and get it

[undone plover]

X-fleet dmg just scales of stats of the ship that has the x fleet
And the dmg modifiers of the flagship of the fleet receiving the x fleet

[soft raft]

Come with MLB?

[ocean terrace]

her x-fleet

[soft raft]

Crossfleets are all skills

[undone plover]

So if u have enty for example
And she owarida’s when x fleet happens she will double xfleet dmg

[ocean terrace]

same for Helena?

[rain bobcat]

no but skill level and overall scaling stat needed counts, so for example a BB without LB at all is missing 150+ FP which counts for crossfleet dmg too

[ocean terrace]

so a level 1 non-mlb WillyD x-fleet will be a tickle

[undone plover]

Actually helena is curious
I feel like it should buff xfleet since it debuffs enemy
I wanna say yes but not sure sry

[ivory sigil]

Morning guys
Morning husky

[undone plover]

[ivory sigil]

I was same at 801 with 3 sorties too

No matter how i change the rarity of mine i dont see it change the number? Does it only change number after we complete a whole sortie battle?

[stark quiver]

because theres oil cap and whatever you are changing is still over the cap

[ocean terrace]

I doubt you could do a low oil cost fleet anyway dw about it
gear is important there

[ivory sigil]

Me too 5 BPs, we farm it 2-3 days straight iirc

Perhaps by the 2nd-3rd week we shall able to reach 25 BPs

[undone plover]

When we farmed PSI rerun hvar drop rate was around 14%
So 25 prints need ~178 sorties

~47k oil

[stark quiver]

its just you who had high rates

[undone plover]

I think I had worse than 14% by the end
I just farmed a lot

[ocean terrace]

do you reckon it's worth using some oil from my storage or do we have plenty of time to farm it?

[white agate]

plenty of time

like in a week you can use easily 20k oil

and we have 3
