whatever that means.
regardless it's a good site, will bookmark it and remove slaimuda
it means it didnt have the time yet to have it all but will eventually 
for laffii, you can copy Eldridge and just make sure at least one piece of gear is Eagle Union if using her in campaign
Is Shizuku (PC) obtainable today?
.08% better on laffey II
i believe so
Is this the first event without tech boxes in the event shop? 

will NC’s skin go away until next time the collab comes?
It's not collab limited
but laffii should use manjuu, so what about on Shimakaze?
Clappiness has 3% HPBoost compared to Cyanidin's 2% HPBoost
And then +2 LCK
2 luck is more than 0.5% i see
this new banner is worth pulling for new players?
you can wait few days for final conclusion but seems these ships not worth except colections
Checked pins didn't see anything... Is the new event supposed to not have like 105mobs (Hard Mode) or is it a bug?
oh ok tysm i will look later on
Not all events are the same layout and this one just doesn't have hard mode
so i got all the ships except the new CV but i dont wanna spend any more cubes on the event. Is she worth it? What does she do?
SP4 topfarm stage. no hard
Ok thanks. I was holding out hoping for a bug. but I guess I'll start farming then. Oils almost capp'd.
tldr for event farm is use a 1/1 crew till oil cap right?
What waiting is there to be done? We have everything and the results are not favorable.
Even after oil cap, advanced try hard players may still be doing 1:1 with 0lb ships
most ships nowadays is just for collection
If I remember correct Kurumy got not best prediction at first few days too. But looking at these ships skills... yeah, not best desirable ships
i was hoping for another good sub since we need support sub for 16 now
Most ships pastadays were just for collection too
i wish we didn't get full gold. cost double the cogs
most skills from new ships which have random isn't best nowadays
I wish we got full rainbow
I'm curious what they (manjuu) expect from this kind ships like Kansas and Shizuki
its just the research ship quota to have one that is below average
man i wish the drink buff ship wasn't so rng
I mean as long as you don't shoot as much buff you get but this numbers just joke
imo interesting idea if this would worth...but
skip one shot and get double damage in second... but not when you buff near 10% FP for this skip
don't we have a ship that does something similar?
idk. Kansas and Shizuki as long main gun cd as more they get...😅
Do i exchange normal pr blueprints to monarch now? Or max thisnso i can analyze monarch blueprints
A ship only needs to dev 30 to anaylyze their BPs into prototype cores.
Okay
so event ships don't even give stat bonuses right ?
Colab don't have techs
thanks, skin only I guess
btw no rerun banner? or this will be later?
23th
At least I can keep saving up til 800 cubes for upcoming URs/reruns, and spend the spare on research
does pickup research keep giving BPs of focused season once you've got all of them maxed out ?
Pickup doesn't mean anything other than that the project is in the season you're focusing. The rewards of the project are also unaffected by which ships you've maxed. Thus, you can tap the rewards on the project to preview what you can get from it
I take it as a yes, because I'm trying to figure out if maxed out seasons still give analysis material
not that I'm close to it, but still wondering
Full light rerun btw, not just banner
~~We WILL get butt battle again

what's a good stopping point for the event?
What are the most important things for progression?
A progression guide for new and returning players, including how to farm ship levels, farm player levels, choose and enhance gear, and manage resources. Also covers fleet compositions by position and role for clearing Chapters 1 through 13.
55k as usual.
is there no hard mode for the event?
No.
is that just a new thing they are doing?
This is standard for collab events.
will the doax rerun have a 1 week event map plus its own shop and milestones?
Yes.
will a lot of people complain in #game-feedback ?
Most likely, honestley suprised they haven't already.
rip oil
whats max possible comfort level in dorm and whahts max without gem furniture?
im a little confuse is the rerun collab ships also in this patch? I only see the new ones
ohh ic tyy
i think its safe to say that all the new doa ships are mid
d||ead ||
o||n ||
a||rrival ||
I mean it's a simple SR event I was going to skip it anyways
Saving my cubes for the next UR event
i haven't played the game in like uhh 3 months are any of these newer ships needed for w16
yes atelier ptsd
Is Moskva fine on W15-16 and where is she preferred? Mob or Boss?
scroll up
thanks, I guess she is good on Boss and alright in Mob
because I was curious, sure Napoli is the generalist Tankiest VG ship in the game, but that Heavy Armor modification does make me worry about her survivability against Torps, which is why I had to compare her to Moskva for a moment 
It might be in the light format since it only lasts one week.
are there any mode to farm decor coin fast ?
it shows 4 new ships in the event build page. Do I get any of these through points or anything else?
tsukushi is also shop / map drop
the rest are gacha only
does elise not have a unique augment?
they all have. some are unlocked thru event/shop/milestones
Yeah i know that, guess I just must be missing where it is.
hello, do you know the timers of the banner?
is this a 2 week event?
Quick question are the gears In this event actually good, I had skimmed some descriptions and some look good but I'm not sure if i can get all of them
ty, I shoulda known to check the missions lol
the pin says Luna is collection only but I recall someone saying she is good for opsi quick clear.......
I like the look of Clover as an option for 2nd HP aux on a DD.
And the other two are from the point ladder, so as long as you play you'll get them.
she has 50% fast load for 2 strikes
so does boise, so she's not really unique by now
they seem like okay auxes. But we have so many 500 hp auxes.....
which will clear opsi faster, boise or luna (or both). I use independence too
Then I guess I'll grind and try to get most of them then
how many stages are there?
it's really not that much faster. you probably gonna save like few seconds at best
Just 4.
you afk for half a minute and it will be pointless in the end
yeah, i guess, right now they end at unicorns 20 second sortie mark usually
but could it be done quicker?
depends on what you wanna do
alsace / uni / sushi is what i field nowadays for opsi mob
like c1 speed clear? or c3 c5 speed clear?
what does sushi do?
this is the most anti speed clear
dragging down your speed
all the cvs that fast load already at 3mil exp lv125 so kek
c1 -c5 don't matter, by the time uni's second launch hits, it's over
she launches at 19 sec or so
if they don't matter to you, then the ship choice wouldn't matter as well
unless i can do it without waiting for uni
or maybe it's independence at 20 sec. that might be it actually
my usual mainstay was seyd / uni / <insert any fast load cv>
indep is around 14
the other preloads clear the first couple waves
look, the point of going for fast clear is so that you can save time for minmax farming in opsi. it's usually c1 farm. if it isn't c1 farming then your clearing time wouldn't matter in the grand scheme of thing
saving few seconds when you are not constantly 24/7 farming, is pointless
well sometimes i have 2 or 3 hours of opsi to do at the end of the month..... and then there are the dailies... it all ads up
i just rotate one opsi round in between every sortie during farming runs or event
then you should be doing something like this
what am i looking at here
Two example fleets
speed clearing c1/c5
thank you i'll study it
cbf to take lion out of bb fleet though heh
like i said it's pointless if you are not constantly farming in opsi
by constantly, you mean every month?
every day
yes i do it every day
tbh i'm only doing c5 to use up the ap boxes
you do c1 farm?
is that luna, top left? chelsie opposite top. Who is bottom right?
when i said everyday, i meant 8-10 hours of c1 loop farming. not doing opsi daily
percy
ibuki
arizona meta
chise gridman collab unit
i'm pretty sure i don't have percy
perseus lion chise
goudenleeuw watarase ibuki
perseus lion arizonameta
atago watarase ibuki
cope with unicorn lol
i lack the arrays to actually bring most of them to 125 anyway heh
how do i get perseus?
special build lol
or scam wishing well later on
unzen is worse than ibuki for speed
What is the SP4 team for farming if I don't care about exp gain and only care about oil effiency/event point ?
is there oil cap?
Oil cap is like 500 for x3 sortie
Should I full limited break comet ?
yes that's 120 comet with aug
ty
Suchi said it was doable with a 5 oil fleet.
tbh just full fleet, very close to oil cap already
for real ? 
I couldn't get it consistent enough so I stuck with SP3.
does sp3 have cap?
No.
4oil at sp3 has better point/oil than uni comet at sp4
oh, that's new !
does argus obtained by sortieing sp4?

The strategy is you make a team with low oil cost and 2nd team has cross-fleet barrage, right ?
yeah, the subs can help too
what did you have worse than me?
thank you, I regret to max LB cassie and retrofit her
just get another
I think Ranger should not have vit double tenrai, it's too slow to strike the boss twice
don't forget your cats!
oath barrage diff fr
thank you Mori, barrage Team strategy is awesome
we have netherlands banner rerun after collab then UR banner?
Possibly.
I couldn't be arsed to move my Mogador gun and Manjuu among other things.
manjuu is required yes
lb0 rnger + cassin/downes, right?

all the rerun ships are gacha only?
i guess cant get nyotengu 🙁
the rerun isn't here yet...
Tought it was the same thing...
old DOA rerun starts next week
6oil at sp4 has better point/oil and tsukushi/oil than 4oil at sp3
SP4 with RNGer and 2 Mahans?
that's 5 oil
2 Mahans and a Z then I guess?
5 oil works for me but requires locking in the best gear
or just any 3 common
Can those who knows explain how Exercises work? Every day was in 1-15 place range. But today am much further. I know that you get 9 points per win if you attack too early and 11+ if later and lower in the ladder.
Outside of that, 30-40 points difference that appeared in 1 day seem too much.
Didn't lose any battle, didn't skip exercises
is that the aotn rush
the difference in point per fight is based purely on how much more points above or below you are compared to the opponent, not in particular with how early or late you do it
there are always a lot of peopl hidden in the 50-150 rank range that are actually higher than you if they dump their exercises. Which most of them do at 2200.
and yeh if you rush for aotn some people just bump it when it's in range and don't wait for max score
give loadout
I'm just going to level the new ships and forget about low costing 
is shimakaze better than kronshtadt for xf in this case
that's 5oil. what's the 6 oil one? z20/21?
I'd assume any common will work but z with mog gun is probably best
nvm too lazy
then just any common
and
can i raw dog this on lethal
no
yes i can
6 oil?
ye
Does the special AA gun rule only apply to just the individual ship or the entire fleet as a whole?
What's the boss level in the SP stage in this collab?
lv80-ish?
That's SP4. I mean the SP stage that unlocks after you clear all the normal stages.
usually 100 ish
what lvl do i need on my ships to clear the event?
my highest lvl is 50, where can i find a purchase pririty list?
Hi i just returned from the game after a year, is there a good general fleet(s) i can use for most content? ty
how many UR bulins can you get now?
And no fam there's no such thing as one or two fleets that's good for everything. But for campaign up to chapter 12 and the current event, you can use
Hood Unicorn Indomitable Yukikaze Laffey Montpelier
Musashi Yorkii Enterprise Portland Helena Northii
Max the unique augment of Yukikaze first, ignore Laffey and Montpelier
wow... so Lion "burn" deals dmg through Lucky E proc 
and that matter because?
donno... found it impressive and sad, how much power creep rose. like i get collision dmg goes through, but "burn"( even though Lion's dot dmg doesn't count as burn)
A simple reference for what gear to equip in each slot for the most commonly encountered enemy types. Covers main fleet and vanguard weapons and auxiliaries.

Thanks
there is this too but don't ask me what it does i have no idea

whats the construction time for shandy?
#gameplay-help message
or check the wiki 
why do people even care about that
Not on the wiki yet
nvm sry i didnt think it was on the wiki yet
but thank u
<@&460646206851252224> weird scam looking thing
which cats should I bother keeping for when I'll care about trying to min max them (in a long time) ? I remember seeing 2 names here a few weeks ago but can't find them again.
i mean https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Shandy
its a tad incomplete but the timer is there 
thanks, I have that reference, I'm trying to recall which of the "-maru" (Katsu/Jiro/etc) is a keeper (without talents min maxing), can't find that one. I believe there was one more interesting than all the others.
takemaru maybe
i remeber using a data key to try doing a level in the war archives and failed, but now when i try again it asks for another one, do they not get consumed if i fail?do iget 1 try?
or bishamaru
only bishamaru 
you can get 4 a day and each stage costs 1
Allright, I'll compare them again and see for myself, not a priority anyway, it's just that cattery is cloging up with free pulls, and I'd hate to fodder a cat to another, only to find out later I shoulda kept it
EXTRA A Pro’s Guidance I failed at about x28 because my vanguards died. Portland survived ages though.
you can keep jiromaru for cv if you dont have teach 
thanks to both of you, I'll do that
move port to the front and laffey to the rear
i have 140/150 ships what should i do with them?
Got to x5 this time then died
i have 15 so 1 must have been used, was it wasted or can i try the lvl again?
Is there a different setup I could try?
You can enter archives levels as much as you want as long as you have 1 key to spend each time
that allows to farm them
so leaving after i lost wasted the key?
At this moment- nothing to change. You can try if have Eldridge retro, Kurumi... or when Laffy2 will be lvl 120+ and mlb if not
i seem to be getting a lot of uniersal bulin, how disposable are they? i want to use them for limit breaks
purple anyone you want you get a lot, gold is more scarce
^ can't stress this enough, save gold bulins for when you do need to lmb a ship to progress your account. You'll run out of them sooner than you know
i have like 80 golds sitting in dock at 0 lb bcs no gold bulin
i started lvling a gold and a purple from before i knew they were lb materials, do i just trash them? or is keeping one worth?
use it to lb someone
regal update with gear loadout 
what do i do with ship dupes i dont need?
retire for medals
if ships you haven't mlb at least one copy of you can also use them as lb fodder
talking about purple and above ships
ectl v2 
does clover of happines and toolkit stack
yes

in opsis, adaptation max against sirens is around 186 for all 3 stats right, and around 200 for arbiter ?
203 203 and 156
thanks
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Operation_Siren
ctrl f adaptive
but I'm lazy and I want to rely on you guys repeating the same information over and over and over again 🙂 jk, thanks Mori
I'll have 2 functional fleets to try against Hard arbit this month, maybe I can clear it this time (drum rolls)
do collab ships count to the collection percentage in your memento log?
nope
blessed, ty
Nor do they give you tech so it’s purely a waifu thing unless they somehow end up being anywhere near viable
I was kinda expecting ships on the level of Kurumi, but I guess she is a big exception among collab ships
Yeaaa I don’t think these batch of collab ships are touching kurumi’s level of viability but I could be wrong
Date a live collab was truly a newbies fever dream
Suchi just dropped a short review of them, after reading their skills, I wasn't impressed either, so I think I'm skipping this
can i get help w fleet building
i understand that at the end of the day i wanna do all of them but, better off upgrading gear or getting ships to 120 early on?
new player ?
is there some reason you can't do both at the same time
out of coins really
how out though, cog awakening and gear enhancement to +10 shouldn't take that much
returning
I've found myself lacking for coins because of ship leveling more than out of leveling gear, since once I'd gotten acceptable gear for each slot the waiting time to acquire better gear for each slot always allowed to save up coin to level said gear
but practically new i guess
if new read this https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/progression-guide
A progression guide for new and returning players, including how to farm ship levels, farm player levels, choose and enhance gear, and manage resources. Also covers fleet compositions by position and role for clearing Chapters 1 through 13.
if you already have a dock with SRs / URs make a thread with your usable dock and your goal and people will help there
How do I get argus
construction, event limited, check her wiki page, bottom of the page => https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Argus
Ok thanks
you can check every means of obtaining every ship the same way
Kurumi was better - however, there's a sub that lowers damage taken (10s but still) which can help with survivability because some people are dense...the big buff chance from shandi (even just crit rate is nice, but could roll evasion for main fleet girls which is ..pretty pointless).
Altho - the fox girl NPC..the half flagship (not a full flag/constant and full buffs) doesn't seem to be nation locked soo, that could be a nice big buff to other ships that don't use it, or, if you're new and wanna try meta girls...that count as their own nation, a nice little buff to them..
And a vanguard healer in yuki..and the one girl, who mimics/comes close to retrofit Ayanami..there's, a few good girls in this collab, not kurumi level obvious but, they can be useful...it's not a write off 🙂
juggling reasearch/acct prog is draining
I spent 30k a day to 15 coin up 1PR/1DR, if I wanna level ships to 120 at the same time I usualy end up coining less, or forgetting DR coin up for a day so I can pay for ship leveling. 12-4 is my go to, trying to 3-5 a day depending on oil
add research projects you have to pay for (but I adjust my spendings there), and looking at around 35k-50k coins needed a day, without gear upgrades
in my book, gear upgrades come last, or when I absolutely need them
I guess i'll just learn to manage things better since not 12-4 income yet, hopefully in a day or 2
you'll make you own priorities. I know mine are to give priority to that which takes the longest time (so shipyard), then research, where I juggle between plates and coin research, then all of the rest
ship levels breakthrough I usualy wait the longest time, provided they can clear 12-4 whilst staying level 100-105, since exp still stacks up
that is especialy visible during events, where stages tend to give much less gold than 12-4, I also adjust there and coin up DR between 5 and 10, so I can keep coining up PR 15 times, and maintain research rolling. But that's arbitrary since I'm just trading coin farming time for event points farming time
research is lower priority than enhancing gear and cog
just grind more stuff with oil cap
ok
I beg to differ, since gear upgrades stall at +10 until you have enough plates for +13, and gear updates take months, and rely a lot on research bp drops. Now if you don't have leveled gear at all, of course, it takes prio since it hinders progress you could be making now. And cogs only rely on farming maps, not coins ? Or am I missing something. Interested in your viewpoint @whole crypt
enhancing gear and cogging is much more directly tied to whether you can engage higher level content for better XP and coin grind which you can do without any research at all
i understand both perspectives ig, and i believe he's right, i've no use trying to get new ships/gear if i can't clear 12-4

you will catch up with research eventually but you need to get to a point where you can sustain it first
I see what you mean, it's just I haven't reached that point now so I'm more focused on keeping a reliable flow of not-the-worst research projects, and chasing faction points at the same time (sakura finaly at 900, and Royal navy past the 700 mark, Plymouth, I'm coming)
always interesting to understand there's a even longer term logic to this game's ressource management than the one before, that already seemed very much long term
So we're supposed to farm Normal?
what is this for
i mean there no hardmode cause its an sp event so just do sp4 and your sp stages
on the event page top right there a spa/hot spring button, that items increase the no of slots from 6 to 10 and the onsen gives you additional morale regen
right.
the one spot i never check.
I hadn't seen that either
do spa morale stacks with dorm btw
i didn't know it existed until 1h ago too lol
just so i can get the lewd grind go on much faster

whats this
menu button for newer L2d skins starting from last update that just literally shows everything
its not a skin specific guideline like for example bismarck or prinz eugen its literally a menu button
Hello everyone, is Eldridge worth getting? I read some stuffs about her, but I am not sure if I should get her from the Merit shop 👀
Non-retrofit Eldridge isn't worth using and you can't get her retrofit item currently
thou her retro item is going to be coming in aug 
Ohhh she is one of those ones, I see, I see
any reason to buy the collab aug in shop if i will scrap them all?
natta since you dont have the ships
figured so
who are the best 3 torp vanguards for a pvp burst team? (idc if its meta, just the most upfront dmg)
i was wondering what the cube income is like
168 guaranteed a month iirc but its a bit closer to 200 from comms and what have you
oki
Make sure to buy the AUX in shop though
It's more than enough to get everything as free to play over time
I would dare to say that paying for cubes is uhhh... a waste of money lol, it's not like Azur Lane will stop being a slow burn even if you pay up, you can't force all the banners you are missing to come back immediately anyway, eventually you will have more than enough time to grind up cubes enough for new releases to immediately get them
is there any of the collab ships that worth pulling yet?
basically never
If you have spare cubes and care to collect the collab ships (which may or may not ever rerun again)
Otherwise no
Is there a fast way to farm gold bullins?
no, it's extra slow
I mean there is a handful of ways to get it but you can’t exactly get them but you can get gold bullins from 3 staring maps
Which maps? @timid beacon
If all I can clear is the normal stage 3 of the event..
Is that the best place to farm for trust points and event currency for me? :/
And wondering should I rather do this (collect some event characters) or continue main story farming as it levels up my ships and commander lvl faster
do event highest you can
Youll get enough exp soon to level your girls to 80 and you can easily farm stage 4. It will be easy once your girls are at 80 since it will give a dmg boost
A useless shizuku and patty are better than no shizuku and patty then ig...
Aside from that ig Don't need to spend cubes this event and save for next
I always die at the boss. Have 2 90s. Some 60s. And no data packs 😢
Need to reach lvl 50
Shizuki is actually a great for farming since she has a very good health skill. If you can get Tsukushi they can basically 1:1 the escort fleets. Just stack up your boss fleet as much as possible
@tulip tinsel are you sure collab ships dont count towards dock?? My are? Or am I going crazy
Hmm...
But i wouldn't be able to get them to lvl 80 quick enough without exp packs then..
they take up space that's why i retired em all
What were the better collab ships?
Kurumi and Kotori?
The best collab ships were the Ryza and Umia ships
They were broken once you had their augments on and ran a fleet of only them.
Wait for a good future collab ig. (Chained soldier I beg)
DOAX is probably the 2nd best collab though
i view all collab units useless except kurumi and some other broken units that i don't have
Tamaki is going to come next week, I believe. Shes one of the best SSR BBs. Her support skill is incredible
<@&460646206851252224>
Grrr
Haven't seen that variant before
Check main quests and see if you have any that you can do
I'd summon her for the design alone...
only mission that grants gold bulins are the ones for 3 starring event maps
@timid beacon omg thank you! Ughhhh but its 3 star 15-4 LOL. Hey, it's better than nothing. I need it hhaha.
Is Vanguard (BB) still great to use for a boss fleet, especially when paired with Sovetsky and Warspite (Retrofit)?
if it's mlb and you don't have anyone better yea
wheres the hard stages for the event cant find the button
nonexistent
so SP4 is highest?
ye
okay
That's pretty much the only extra UR battleship I have, also thank you

What’s the best season for gear?
Might wanna give that a look https://suchiguma.github.io/miniguides/research-focus/
Makes a recommendation to new players for how to set their Research Focus. Lists the pros and cons of focusing on each research season.
thx
For the event, why does my second fleet not fight the boss when I auto? Anyone know how to fix that?
check in the "role" tab that the fleet you want to be fighting bosses with is set to "flagship"
Oh perfect ty
do we know the order of upcoming ur reruns?
Can I tuck in these 3 (except soyuz) to get this done faster?
3 faction ships gather exp faster than 2 or 1, yes
Soyuz counts, even if she's not MLB
Before Blaster shows up to tell me there's yet another update, here's the old schedule. Note that Tulipa is expected to be the next rerun, but not UR so you might not care.
every piece listed here https://suchiguma.github.io/miniguides/quick-gear-guide/
A simple reference for what gear to equip in each slot for the most commonly encountered enemy types. Covers main fleet and vanguard weapons and auxiliaries.
so alsace is predicted next?
Yes.
lets go perfect timing to come back to the game
you can also check which purple gear is a prerequisite to advised lab gear and keep those, there aren't so many to keep track of
gear lab is such pain in the ass
which event map is best token/time?
Is there a way to farm specifically for T2/3 Ordnance from OPSI?
no
only reliable way is shop, rest is pure rng through meowfficers mostly
tyty
depends on how fast you can clear each
but considering only oil cap SP4 is by far the best to farm
best way to farm trust points for shizuku
Now updated w/ Tulpia 
God damn it. 
No matter how much I farm opsi I haven't been able to craft a single piece of recommended gear so far 
Just keep farming
it's normal, I'm at 2 months of full OpSi clear and I have something like a quarter of 4 items
oh, aight
It takes minimum a month to get your first Wyvern. More commonly 2-3 months.
I mean
Here's what I got from Story clear + march + april until now
that gear list everyone keeps posting is showing your final gear target. What do I craft/equip before that?
what is listed before you have access to these items, in the same list
If you mean this, https://suchiguma.github.io/miniguides/quick-gear-guide/, then the purple/gold rarity stuff listed
btw, if I enhance a piece and then use it in a recipee, do I need to enhance again?
You get a full plate refund and partial coin refund
so it's worth it. Gotcha
now I just got to sort out which purple gear to keep and which to nuke
don't forget that there's an IG popup that tells you if the selected gear is usable in gear lab
enough for 1st wywern
helps a bunch
yup, but I'm hoarding until I actualy need something to progress, which I don't at the moment. But yeah
I wish HVAR could be farmed outside of archives though
guys what player should i use for pc azure lane ?
Checking every piece like that will take a while
just be lazy and post your depot here
mumu is the favored emulator
was ld player bad ?
that works too
ld player wasn't bad, but mumu is better for many people
mumu works perfectly
the main complaint about ldplayer i've read is the in-battle freezing
ld player had 32 storage and game is 32 lol and frezzing is crazy
wasn't there a safe to scrap guide somewhere
there is, but it doesn't cover most purples that are safe to scrap
ic
ima try mumu after i delete dl player thanks for the help
where was the site to see an example of what gear is good for a chosen ship?
have you binded your account
yeah yostar gmail
A simple reference for what gear to equip in each slot for the most commonly encountered enemy types. Covers main fleet and vanguard weapons and auxiliaries.
ldplayers biggest fault was messing up your dock, reporing random names...
and freezing during abttles lol
that brand new regal website is a gem, "dare I say" 🙂
those are showing general advice. I remember one where you open a ship's page and it shows you exact gear recommended
thats ectl and its dead
just use regal one which is ectl but premium
it was never exact gear, you still needed to use your discretion
Regal has that now btw.
it has most of the ship gear in it now so

why all cute ships are shit for end game content
what UR do I MLB next?
and she's voiced by noto mamiko... world is cruel
do we know if essex retro will rerun any time soon?
I’m leaning towards waiting to see the next UR. Also as a note you can save dock space by not buying the UR bulins until you’re gonna use them.
Most likely in August.
oh alright, thanks for the tip
thx
thx yall
What research is worth doing?I realized I have 6 slots
Btw. Is Lexington good?
the original? no
Yeah the original
normal no, lex2 very good
Ah. Yeah. Original maybe for tech
btw. what to do if you have too many copy of bulin?
I got around 23 gold bulins and around 25 normal bulins
i use it on ships with good tech(only if you have good ones already mlb)
I got some of this gold ship. Who should I retired?
none that would give you faction points and/or tech points you haven't gotten already ?
Also Argus. Can I used her until I got independency?
do you need to use her ?
Maybe for 2nd fleet?
do you need a second fleet ?
mumu was a horrible experience for me
i use ldplayer
kazagumo for sure , maybe vitterio but unsure if she's good anymore
I tried for a few days and it was stuck on a black screen, I gave up and used good old bluestacks
I have huge beef with LD and switch to Mumu
also tried that, didn't work
same with bluestack
i feel like no matter what emulator i use, the game tends to freeze up during sortieing every now and then
question for the future, who's the direct upgrade on hood?
bro same here
ive tried bluestacks, nox, and ldplayer and they all freeze at somepoint, nox just straight up didnt work
wdym
though i do feel ldplayer runs a bit smoother htan the rest of them
depends on what you cna get your hands on but in theory musashi from perma
there's no real "direct upgrade", but if you're looking for a better transitional bb then use alabama
any UR bb is better than hood
does island planner run well for you? mine's stuck on 10-20 fps
for the event. what map are best for farming?
Shizuku
i havent touched island planner since its release lol
sp4
some shipyard ships like georgia and more i can't remember
oh lol
Yeah. I see it drop 180
i havent really touched any of the collab units, is shizuku better than alabama?
do daily SP stage if you can for the 800, then farm SP4
Shizuku is cheaper and much better than Alabama, only downside is dorm morale while NPC or not playing enough to recruit.
any of the collab units kurumi level good?
nah
unfortunate
best item to get in the event shop?
cog chips/arrays and blueprints
I missed the kurumi event, sadge
oil for more farming too
event gear
event ship aux if you plan to keep them
make sure to get the aux(the clover) really good aux that stacks with toolbox
get this one too
do hot springs take prio over dorm ? looks like ships take ages to recover morale where dorm 2nd floor is kinda quick
So in this event Shizuki is the only one worth getting and lvl up right?
you stack both to get 60 morale regen
okay, thanks.
aight
if you're early in the game shizuku is good according to sushi, better than hood and alabama and much cheaper to raise since you get free copies
im not sure about the other ones though i havent really looked at them
only 1 gold bulin to mlb
Oh.
"free" augment
you said you're around w10? id proly say it'd be worth raising her
is this better to use as meck aux gun over donskoi gun?
you probably dont need a second fleet till like w11, i think i got to w12 with only 1 fleet
Book investment, short/mid time improvement (w13)
give her cl gun not dd
Yeah. I'm just building my 2nd fleet. Currently using this fleet as main
depends on where you wanna use her, can be better or worse
im not really sure which situations call for a dd gun or cl gun
its only better in w14 specifically
typically cl gun is perfered
it can better intercept suicide boats, that's about it. every other scenario you choose the higher FP gun for more damage
we need UR CL only ply is one
Is koln meta good?
no
i forgot about sandy
why can't we have several fleet templates with repeating ships 
why so many of them are this low 
cuz they're bad
old 
Tbh to be expected with Cruise Pass METAs when you're getting them for literally free
their only value is fleet tech if their tech is good
Are any of the new ships worth using? (Including their augments)
1st pin
does "all ships in fleet" mean just the vanguard or main (depending on the ship), or does it mean all 6 ships
all 6
😭 😭
if im not a hyper-sweat, should i be worrying about MLBing all the Elite ships or is getting them for collection enough
all elite ships that give faction / tech points are worth leveling and MLBing at some point, no rush though. You can check the wiki to see what ship gives what and make your own prio
you can see everything related to this here https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Fleet_Technology#tabber-Royal_Navy_2
Is there any equipment that can be completely discarded?
Thanks
Does Agïr's armor break apply to all armor types? I don't see any qualifiers in the wiki.
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Damage_Calculations#Armor_Break if its not mentioned in the notes section then it works on everyone
Thanks for clarifying.
I was saving the event mail oil for a while and when I claimed it... i didn't get any ._.
Should I report this in tech support or bug report. I want me oil 🙁
You should go check out Mail > Storage.
every oil and coin goes into mail storage
Which UR next? 
Implacable for limit breaks
how ya doing on coins this event? 60 pulls in and i'm running outta coins. event sucks for coins too... what should i do?
12-4
don't pull
Pull slower
spread it out over the event period
is there a hard mode this event?
no
it's hard enough getting resources from this event. that's the difficulty 
When Helena uses SG radar (it has Eva stat and +10% Eva), what are her eHPs with the other aux being rudder or manjuu? @slow fox
To exchange for 
they meant to get a dupe to limit break her with
Oh, why wouldnt it be better to get another UR that i dont already have? I almost have enough for 4 UR bulins for implacable rn 
because UR bulins are rare and all ships need their limit breaks. better to save the bulins for newer ships, so either save those for the may UR or use them on someone that isn't permanent yet
basically, picking a new UR only to leave them at 0lb isn't worth it anyways
Ohh, makes sense!
that said, if it wasn't about the limit breaks, yorktown II would be a good pick
Any of my current URs worth prioritising? Or should i just save for may
Thanks, i'll keep that in mind 
moskva, i'd say, since she's already at 1lb. otherwise guam. or save. your choice honestly. 
william is also good, but i'd say on her own not that important
wouldnt it be better to wait for zwei
actually nvm they already have lex2 and essex retro
they already have the exchange now, it'd be a waste not to exchange
I was looking at end game tierlist and lion seems to be pretty stronk, any ideas when she'd rerun?
Not better to waste who knows how much pity while waiting.
oh didnt see that
yeah, basically. if we knew biszwei was coming next week or something, sure, but she may be a few months away
probably 2027 lol
2 years after the initial run. Pretty sure that’ll be 2027, probably like March.
lion should rerun about may next year i think?
Oh, right, she was CN anni. Probably June-ish.
on the note of reruns, alsace/mogador is also probably rerunning within the next 2 months
Is Yorktown II pretty good? 😮
yes, but that suggestion was mostly about them already having lex2 and william, which pair well with her
I see I see. I got her from a pull but have her just sitting in the docks waiting for me to level up enough and earn UR bulins
Another question.
What to spend on in the event shop?
Augment modules and blueprints?
I ask this as Lvl 44 waiting for 7-1 to be unlocked 
Do you get the shipds? Thn get their augments. Otherwise... nope. Get the aux
the ship (if she doesn't drop by the end of the event and you want her), augments for the ships you did get, the other gear, and then whatever you need? oil, cog chips/arrays, augment stuff, bp. uss boxes are also good for gear since you're this new
There are no boxes in the shop
... i thought the shop looked weirdly empty this time around, that explains it 
I have a desmos account but I don't save eHP calcs on desmos
There are two explanations for this
1 - They are simple
2 - They are all in my head
Helena retro has 3928 HP at 125 love
What in the god damn
eHP delusion can ignore
Since manjuu is worth around 8/79 while toolkit is around 5/100, is manjuu better than toolkit for all eagle union ships?
Yes
When will the "Whence Flowers Bear no Fruit" (Zuihou) Event rerun?
Does shandys skin have some sort of interactions
@rain bobcat
thank you skins guide
It's Dynamic, so...
@wary saffron
At best you get an expression change for tapping the head or chest.
Or a random one for tapping elsewhere.
manjuu stealing some job
Biggest disappointment that Shandy skin isn't L2D
Does anyone have guide to 3 star world 15
Is Plymouth for mob or boss.. I can’t really tell since I’ve seen the ratings are high on both for w14 and above
She can do both just fine.
If rating is high for both then she's good for both
I mean world 16
Most of the time if the ship works for boss she will do fine for mob
Also

What can I use for meta boss currently I deal 300k-400 this is the ships I'm using
you're doing the best. just request for assistance
You need to use a ... wtf where are your BBs
i guess it's fine since you don't have torp either
or do you
CL torp tech. Surely someone's getting 2 stacks there
fleetception intensifies
Cl torp tech? What's that
_<
CL : light cruiser
Torpedo stat
Does CM for ship ranking corresopnd to campaign chapters 1 - 13 or something else?
CM means challenge mode
Oops. Sorry I missed the legend. 😓
I forgot what bb should I build coz idk which one is good
is the event stage 4 on par with 12-4 i wonder...
lol no
not once in the history of the game has an event stage been on par with 12-4 for coins and ship exp
SP4 is like 1/5 of what 12-4 is...
i lied, they probably were, pre oil cap and clearing rewards
damn, tho ig its still worth grinding sp4 over 12-4 for shop
that's how it is every event
and tbh oil/xp its actually somewhat fair compare to 12-4
since im hitting the same amount of 1 12-4 run with 2 sp4 runs
somehow I'm not killing boss fast enough 
after more observations, i have given ranger saiun tenrai tenrai beacon
and you absolutely need soyuz to hit the boss fully, also give soyuz max FP
so 134 + 2SHS?
how important is it to sweep stages? im not really a fan of letting my phone idle on a game for an hour
most of the game is going to be behind repetitive grinds
how often should i do research? it seems to eat quite a lot of money
consider doing cheaper/free researches before you have a stable income (which also means grinding), just know that they have worse yields
otherwise you pretty much should have researches running 24/7
also applies to unicorn?
yes you can use this instead, it's the same thing but easier https://azur-lane-regal.suchiguma.com/ship/142
Who should I exchange for?
musashi
Also can someone help me build a comp for world 10 please
Send a picture of your dock
Preferable in a thread 
Conp help
Check thread 
Dont we encourage breguet more cause fly speed? Also beacon to get extra heals off?
no
breguet is commonly used if you can't afford wyvern or you wanna desync with the other cv in your fleet
beacon is almost never recommended on unicorn
How is Fujinami?
16-4, by the time you reach there you won't need her anyway
map drop ships are mostly collection tier
Oh ty — I’m also confused how vanguard is A tier for mob in w16. Can someone explain
is there a fleet combination that increase movespeed absurdly that the map travel goes to 5 or more?
just use fast ships
not like it's seriously relevant since movement limit is gone once you go to clearing mode
What's the best fleet to one shot current Harbiter?
if you need to think about it then just two-shot it
which is the slowest ship in game? (according to their spd stat)
is there a way to increase the cap (3) on repeat sorties
wait then should i stop building shimakaze?
ye
when i exchange should i get musashi then
is portland still viable on stage 10 above
she's not gotten worse and the game hasn't gotten harder
so i can continue building her
works up to w12
if you don't have a better tank option
which are tanks
she has good AA, that's about it
better than portland or nah
better
if my boss fleet only contains dps, is that bad
depends
san diego z46 laffeyretro
what about my mob fleet
on boss fleet its uh izumo nj enterprise
better to show picture
you can move your sandiego to main tank your mob, let blucher main tank your boss
what happened to justagram? can't see anything in the corner
kk
background issue
im still building helena should i continue
how to get those kitsune masks
report to #bug-reports
i forgor (from an event)
how does craft work ?
for example i have 34 127mm main gun grey, but in craft i only have 3/5
if you have other CV to use like independence or something, you can kick off amagi, let izumo mob
damn i loved amagi
you have 3 out of 5 blueprints need to craft it
if you dont have gold bulin to spare it's fine to keep as it is
i have 5
my main problem really is just gold
soo the unused grey gear just disassemble then ?
and how to get the blueprint
since you're broke just save and get indep later lol
i dont got a clue who's independence
a CVL from core data shop
needs retrofit to be good, so start saving retroblueprints and gold etc
i can afford her
but you cannot afford her retrofit
ideally ch12, but now you should be grinding event
what stage on event
yea disassemble all grey gear
gear blueprints drop from various sources like maps or research but the map drops rates are atrocious so you typically get gear blueprints from research or protocore shop
4
elaborate on why farming the event is useful
you can buy resources from event shop with the special currency that can only be farmed from event map
event limited, good stuff, campaign stays there until eos and can be ignored while event is active
What armor is current Arbitor?
light ?
should i maybe still continue limit breaking shimakaze
no
yes
shipyard DRs don't need UR bulins, so the logic is more coin/BP-related than bulins related
i heard a good thing to buy from the core (mo.) shop was Independence, is this true
I'm kinda lost on any structured way to improve, is there a guide that people follow?

what type of gun in 3rd slot can hindy use again
a 2nd Main gun that matches the first one if you can 
oh definitely, time to get crafty crafty
@forest palm this should do right? (i only got her recently, dont mind)
not familiar with the gun, but ya that would work 
its napoli's gun
This my Hindenburg
currently using her in mobbing for leveling before attempting to get BPs for drake's
or hinden's since ill need to go back for keary anyways
the UR Proto 203 is going to be the better sets of guns on her 
thats her gun
ill need kear soon so
how's ur banner work ? is it just normal banner but ur ship have rate up or what
and how many cube spend per gacha
that but also you get the ur pity like the one we usually have just limited to the event pulls only and you will only get the event exclusive ur
its 2 cubes per pull and 200 pull for pity
pity does not carry over after the banner
the drop rate is so high that you usually dont need pity. only very rarely
are the banner contain ur ship like ur exchange or different
the banner come after collab ended right ?
not immediately its mostly likely during the end of may
think i pittied 2 times since UR were introduced. and pulled for all of them
nice, have some time to save some cube
thanks
so, how do I clear the SP event stages? I can't use my main ships cus they're too low lvled, and even if I switch to higher lvled ships to get past the lvl requirement, I lose to the boss
level up some more, reserve 1 ammo on main fleet, use fleet 2 to kill some mob
Should I put Plymouth in the middle or right position? (Laffey and Ägir are also There)
Peak?
no

whats shinanos ideal planes
depends on content
I just got my very first DDG which of the missiles should I be using on her
I think there's only two missiles...
So there's S1 and S1A
sy1a is the stronger missile
is ocean soul camo worth the cost?
I see the blue version listed in recommendation options for CAs, but never see the purple one
no
Is there an island planner chat ?
Is it possible to play island planner on one device and let the sortie play on another?
no
Rip. That's a huge miss on their part. Curious the % of people who play it
not enough
unfortunately island is not worth the while
-Too many bugs
-Too much shit to grind
-Just a testbed for promathia
Took a peek in the mode to see if I can buy any gold bullins in the shop lol. Took me so long to get access to the shop
you could have just asked
i havent really touched it, are there rewards/a shop for playing it?
only some affinity items and gems.
Too much effort for too little reward
thanks
My account is tied to facebook account for a long time, how do I unbind from facebook and make it solely binded to yostar account ? When I tried to bind to yostar account it said the yostar email has been binded to a different account. (It's actually the same account though).
Yes, you can also get one of the collab girl drop from that stage.
so there's another event starting next week ?
I had issues with bound email also, I wrote and in game support ticket, and a few days after they had changed the bound mail to the correct one. I suggest you contact support directly to ensure your chosen mail is your bound one
does it mean we'll have another set of rewards to farm 55k points for on top of the current one ? if known as of today
.... unfortunately most likely yes. They did that for the Ryza and Yumia collabs
Ok
right, thanks, better start digging for more oil right now then 🙂
Wish they could combine the currency but makes sense it is not possible
Yes. It wont hurt to maybe get the 7.99$ month supply since it gives 1k coin 200 oil a day and 500 gems. It was my first time buying in over 2 years
I buy with my Google survey rewards points LOL
same here
Although going by Ryzia''s they have an insane multiplier, like x3 on SP
ah, well we'll see then, would be nice though
Oh I didnt know that. Sweet
whats the series of pr bp on the next event shop rerun?
series 5 
Am I tripping or is haku not that good? It feels like she’s too slow for mob and doesn’t do enough damage for boss
depends on the haku and your fleet and your gear
How many DBs do you have on her
I was just comparing her to amagi cv in the same fleet with same gear and amagi did infinitely better in both mob and boss. I just realized my haku is lvl 101 vs lvl 125 amagi so maybe that’s why? Also all skills are maxed
Also is your Haku at least D30
is your Haku a dragon or a ho?
hakuryuu or hakuhou 
Hakuryuu, fs5, and i was using junkers tenrai and skyraider
Double DB
Yeah that would explain it
What should I use instead
well i think the 24 level difference is a better explanation
depends on the enemy and your fleet
Can you give me a decent rule of thumb or is it too dependent
if you're looking for "general use", that doesnt really exist in this game
What is this fleet currently doing?
I mean a rule of thumb for a few common scenarios or something
Is there a guide somewhere? Cuz I wanna be able to decide for myself instead of ask here every time I’m doing a different thing
Thx
Also for hakuryuu should you worry about using a fighter or not for the skill? Or should you just use whatever planes work best and then the skill just is what it is
here 
oof. I got stuck at chapter 10 tho. Who should I replace penny?
you should be farming SP4 instead of trying to clear chapter 10
and replacements depend on your dock
though it is extremely concerning to be stuck at chapter 10 with level 115 avg fleet
Who should I mlb next? Or should I wait for next ur event
Fritz Rumney
Vanguard should be fine without MLB since she's mainly just for support.
Z52 is also a very good DD
She's loud if you put her in your team.
first question is how many ur bulins you got 
CN anni is next month btw, requiring 8 purins in stock. they'll most likely release 2 brand new URs and rerun Alsace after that sometime
Saving up on purins is a wise choice imo. I feel pain looking at the MLB Kronshtadt and UvH... but you can def get by before the CN Anni
4
Bro chill I got them when they first came out 😭
Also thx for the advice
yea just save for the new ur 
Omg Alsace rerun and possibly 2 new UR's? 😭
I think I have enough cubes to get 2 guaranteed URs but my problem is going to be MLBing
I’ve just accepted I’m never gonna catch up to mlbing everyone 😭
we've had double UR events before, one of them will be shop
Oh that's great
I hope another good gear gets released, so far I have the Soyuz and Moskva gun on my depot
spending your timegated purins on perma urs is bad practice
but oh well, better late than never
back then, the rates was actually alright. guess the devs shoehorning multiple URs in various events hurt more
i'm not gonna complain when my alt's in a similar situation as yours. never getting that raffaelo of mine to mlb 🥲
stupid timegated system, only way up's going to somehow roll for multiple UR dupes in the same event. rip for those having to hit the required amount for spark
Well that made me feel old, late 2021/early 2022.
Man same here
when does the event end? for clarity, please provide # of days and hours left, thanks
a little confused due to the event starting friday and the event saying "may1" but idk if it's inclusive
It's not but that still gives ius the usual 2 week duration.
dates without times are (almost?) always inclusive
Just set some time aside for the rerun.
At least 14.
i guess i'll just plan as if it's 14
thanks
what if it is your only UR?
you just wait for the next new or rerun UR(s) which shouldn't take more than 3 months




what even is this fleet
