kid ships can be trashed because no tech

onyx flame
#

typically you exp them up via other ways like exp book/dorm until they reach a level that they can suvive the grind
thou at world 6 you should really only be leveling one fleet
typically a 2nd fleet is only built from w9+ onwards

how many dockspace do you have right now

wind hazel
#

join a guild with 30 dockspace, buy them. get whatever gem you can from campaign, buy more dockspace

#

wow that's gonna give him two dockspace! his problem is solved!!!

muted wind
#

that looks like you already have 3 slots. buy floor 2, that'll be enough

also hoping this was only elite or lower rarity ships

is there a logic for how many 1~2 hr comissions u get a day or pure rng?

RNG

muted wind
#

i feel like there is some pattern to it but i don't know if anyone has collected data on it

#

probably okay MurmWat

wind hazel
#

he also conveniently forgot to mention chen hai, anshan being good

muted wind
#

well, at least an shan is easy to get back if he needs her

whole crypt

chen hai is only good in a very limited capacity

wind hazel
#

same as hwah jah then

muted wind
#

you wouldn't be using them much honestly

wind hazel
#

dont worry they are useless for you for a very long time

#

but i'd rather have the ship when i need them than not in the future

muted wind
#

cup ramen, that's that ship's augment. also the augments for the other ships you got (first row). clover just because gear. besides that items for augment upgrades/crafting, research bp, cog chips/arrays, and oil.
-# i feel like i'm forgetting something

onyx flame
#

you buy her last

muted wind
#

just 1 is okay

#

just in case you get her as a drop, just save 8k points until the last day

#

... not a huge loss EssexWheeze

onyx flame
#

cause she might drop from sp4
buy the clover, coin/oil, chips/array as well as augments for ship your planning to keep

muted wind
#

only if you have the ships they're for. if you tap them, it will say what ship

#

yes

#

-# also the augments for elise and patty are from missions

Does __ count for Shipyard Combat Data Collection EXP?

Yes

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

No

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

Why would I even call it proto sextuple when bofors is shorter anyway my bad

there are multiple bofors AA guns

What are the best meta ships?

wraith pendant
whole crypt
#

for the record that's likely for EX scoring

#

if you just want to clear EX for chips it usually just throwing rainbows at the problem

stable badger
tulip zenith
#

I see

stable badger
#

she also was, i think the only Meta ship to be... META, for pvp for like a year~

whole crypt
#

Fortune META made it to PvP for a short while

stable badger
#

riiiight. had both of them for a while there

soft raft
whole crypt
#

cruise METAs seem to be a hit or miss but some of the newer vanguards may or may not be a better raise than say, starter DD if you're just looking at early options

#

being at least starter tier is not a high bar to clear and raising a META ship has some advantages in terms of skill leveling not taking up class slots and LB not using bulins

#

but these basically need to be referred to on an individual basis for which ship is available when a new player comes by

stable badger
#

welp. since it's on the subject. how does Dossier analysis work?

whole crypt
#

you earn dossier coords everytime you earn normal coords in OS up to 200 a day
you can stock up to 1400 coords
you spend 100 each time you start a dossier fight
dossier fights can only request support from guild/friends
dossier fights have an "auto repeat" function which you can turn on after the first fight, which automatically clears the fight after 15minutes with oil cost based number of fights it would take using the damage dealt in the first attempt (max 200 same as normal showdowns)
you cannot start a dossier fight when you have an active current showdown fight and vice versa

stable badger
#

oh. so now i'm 1300/1400 cuz i "started" a new fight. can i like use them all in a day? also, what's the point of auto fight every 15 minutes? even if i don't sink on 1st try, i can just repeat it? is this like for new players that only hit like 100k dmg, so they don't have to run 15 fights in a row, let it run it'll finish in half a day?

eternal basalt
#

"can i like use them all in a day?"
Yes

whole crypt
#

you can spend as many as you have in a day
auto fight you can just go off to do something else while the thing clears itself, but yes it's significantly more advantageous for players who can't really damage the boss since cost caps out at 200 and you clear it regardless after 15min

#

say a boss has 1mil HP and a player only does 100 damage, the game just "clears" 10000 runs in 15 minutes regardless

#

you can even abuse this by sending a bulin, doing 1 damage and dying and letting the auto "repeat" 1mil runs in 15 minutes

i feel like i should know this, but for DDs its considered better when they have the AoA limit break thing right? the other one seems so useless

That's not really what you should be looking at when determining the viability of a DD

I have no more dockspace Im out of gems I cant buy anymore from my guild it says ā€œBuilddable at 3300ā€ and idk what that means and I have been unable to play the game for basically two months I cant even sortie anymore really I cant retire any ships is there anything I can do

tulip zenith
#

buy gems, retire ships, limit break ships

#

whats stopping you from retiring

polar oak
#

Should I retire ships even if I only have one copy of them? That doesnt feel right is that what everyone does?

#

Like the locked ships in my dock?

tulip zenith
#

if theyre ass then ur good, technically it would be optimal to save them for tech bonus stuff but i feel like its not that deep and if its literally stopping you from playing the game then i reckon its fine

polar oak
#

Ill keep it a stack I love this game but the dock system actually pmo so much I think Ill have to swipe for gems I cant bring myself to retire locked ships

tulip zenith
#

ya i feel u i was in the same position at one point, then i just spent some gems on dock space and retired a bunch of ships id never use and now i dont need to worry about dock space

#

if u care about collecting ships then ya ur gonna need a ton of dock space

polar oak
#

What does the buildable at 3300 mean jn the guild tech facilities? Is that just the cap or can I do something to unlock more from there

tulip zenith
#

if u just care about fleet tech then you probably have a bunch of ships who dont give anything anyway that u can just retire (e.g. collab ships, chan ships, some more probably idk). also i hate that they basically force a new dog ass meta ship into ur dock every season that u cant even retire

I set a research focus and have been working towards specific DR blueprints for about a month now, but I did the math and it looks like it will take abt half a year if I use general blueprints and a year if I don’t.
Is that normal? Ik people said it takes a while, but that seems insane for one ship.

rapid shard
#

It only took me about 3.5ish month to D30 all of PR8 from starting at zero without using general prints on that season.

viscid swift
#

How did you arrive at these conclusions exactly?

slow charm
rapid shard
#

Are you picking research projects correctly?

viscid swift
#

Right. Ignoring the potential you're just not picking good researches.

#

Are you aware of what getting a ship to dev 30 does?

#

To the research selection.

slow charm
slow charm
viscid swift
#

When you get a ship to Dev 30, that's ship's face researches are knocked from the pool until every ship in the season is dev 30.

#

So your premise that your average per month will remain constant is wrong.

sweet delta
#

Screenshot the current state of your queue? Then we can see if you're likely doing the right projects or roast you

rapid shard

Yeah that basic is a horrible choice tbh

viscid swift
#

Well you can only blame yourself then for your shitty income.

rapid shard
#

My current que for example, bad luck on rotations and not spending cubes on it

slow charm
#

The basic was legit all I had. Ik it isnt recommended but the other choices were all cube costs

sweet delta
#

That 8 hour purple is a bottom tier project according to the guide you're using

viscid swift
#

I would have eaten the cube cost.

sweet delta
#

It would be the bottom of the bottom tier

viscid swift
#

Once in a while won't kill you.

sweet delta
#

Is there a project priority guide for ship focus for poor players? Like ship focus but with a cutoff below which gear focus or Q should be taken

slow charm
#

I don’t think so. I’ve mostly been ignoring gear cus I don’t rlly understand it.

rapid shard
#

Rigging projects help out a ton and you want the gear from season 7-8.

slow charm
rapid shard
#

1hr rigging only cost gray plates and help you quickly get to next project. They may not give prints but your able to get way more projects which means more prints in long run.

#

Also the gear from season 7 and 8 is pretty good. The rainbow gear they give is also the best for medium armor.

slow charm
agile temple
#

If we are judging queues does mine look fine?

slow charm
#

Nvm, for some inexplicable reason I forget different ships have different guns. Ignore my dumbass

agile temple
#

i dont remember if i paid cubes for the gold one or not

viscid swift
agile temple
#

also seeing something someone just mentioned, what are these ship prints even for? can i get the ship without having any prints for them?

#

like what happens when i finish getting the 3mil xp for roon

oh damn if i aint at chapter 12 yet i shouldnt be bothering with this stuff?

Rainbow gear are obtained in gear lab, PR prints, or events

wind hazel
#

mk6 is good enough. mk7 is only marginally better when both at +10. you want to +13 it to be worth the resources

#

and +13 a UR gun is expensive

atomic abyss
#

Yes

wind hazel
sweet delta
wind hazel
#

smelly animal

#

ngl but this is weird

sweet delta
#

Say more

wind hazel
#

i know the 'how to read' section says higher isn't better, but it's still tiered to a certain extent that higher is better. however for a BB loadout i think it's pointless to include 57mm in it, because 99% you want the hit from 76/staag on a BB anyway, and 57mm is better on vanguard than on a BB.

#

the 'debatable worth' should also be scrapped. players that can get those two items will have roomba or staag, so kinda pointless inclusion when their performance is already a debate

#

i'd put
76
staag
hazemeyer
roomba, rest of gold
purple

#

maybe can exclude haze

whole crypt
#

I’m a simple man, rainbow, staag or roomba ShiSleep

sweet delta
#

57 is certainly better than or equal to staag for 13 15 16, and I won't rule out rich players . Players should prioritize for slots

wind hazel
#

if you wont rule out rich players, then progression guide should include whale section that suggest buying pr vouchers

#

and qgg should include monarch gun or something, since rich players can +13 it to be better than mk6

sweet delta
#

By rich I mean boomers with multiples of the best

wind hazel
#

i still think it's a rather pointless inclusion

let's say player A has 3 76 and 3 57. ideal setup you'd still want to put the 76 on your BB

#

and to a new player 57 isn't recommended to craft, so it's also pointless

#

i just dont see a scenario where you want to put 57 on your bb

sweet delta
#

I will put debatable worth for 57 but leave it there for the many, many boomers and some newer players who already have it

hard ibex
#

how much do i need to get her?

whole crypt
#

boomers should just learn to not use gear recc

whole crypt
wind hazel
#

ask cheeky's opinion, he has like 6+ of it LOL i think his opinion has more weight on this case

hard ibex
#

ok

whole crypt
#

I have more 57s than cheeks and more +13'd than him too, tagging it debatable is probably good enough

wind hazel
#

BacheLaugh oh you're also one

sweet delta
#

And if it's 57 vs Roomba on one BB and one VG, then either way doesn't matter

whole crypt
#

even on carries 57 isn't significantly better than 76, if at all

wind hazel
sweet delta
#

Smart players can figure out staag on BB and 57 on vanguard in that case, non smart players don't lose much from not doing that

whole crypt
#

if it's at a point where the arrangement of those AA guns matter said player needs to come ask about AA circle and not just follow qgg/gear recc

#

overly detailing AA gun reccs isn't super helpful

tiny goblet
wind hazel
#

i mean my point is 57 is rather obsolete gear by this point. it's the same reason why qgg don't have monarch gun on it, because it isn't worth getting it. so why exclude one and then include in another

#

if you wanna say boomers have them, boomers have monarch guns too

whole crypt
#

it's the single easiest tweak to go for first if you're struggly with plane hells

#

in most other cases you should use double line

tiny goblet
#

i seee, ive only been using single line cause i havnt noticed a difference until recently, so i was curious

#

i suppose i shall try changing things and see if it helps, thank ye

whole crypt
#

the offensive stats on single line only affects your vanguard, also being the default formation you start with you tend to not notice early in the game that it's not that helpful

#

main fleet damage becomes more significant as you progress and single line simply becomes irrelevant, while the survivability double line adds becomes more valuable

#

or in the case of plane hell/AA, circular

tiny goblet
#

thats understandable, i actually didnt know that it only affected vangaurd, my thought process was if they die first then i survive

whole crypt
#

the recommendations are also not based on comparing the guns at +13

#

at least based on that recc chart I don't think any newbie's first reaction would be "ok I need to craft a 57 first"

sweet delta
viscid swift
wind hazel
#

i still can't think of any scenario where you want to put 57 on your bb, all things considered

whole crypt
#

when you don't have a 76 and have multiple 57s for a plane hell

sweet delta
#

that means you weren't rich enough to have gotten 8 +13 57s like Mr. NNTKTT here

Does anyone know what is the absolute cheapest fleet to auto clear 12-4 for the most gold to least oil used ratio?

#

yes which is why you should spend all of them each month

gusty yarrow

should you only use eagle union planes on independence

whole crypt

most of the best fighters are USS so that works out
USS TBs however tend to be shit so just follow usual TB recommendations

Avenger sucks, Hellcat is ok if you don't have gold 2x500lb planes

gusty yarrow

ok

sweet delta

but purple F4U Corsair is slightly better than purple Hellcat

gusty yarrow
#

what about barracuda

solar sapphire
#

Alright, thanks

gusty yarrow
sweet delta
#

Gold barracuda is probably better than +15% avenger

#

Independence's fighter slot is much stronger than Shinano's, so without further context you should move it

how does "something good is going to happen~!" occur? it says xp boost but idk how to replicate it

these ships aren't meta-defining or anything, skip them if you don't want them MurmWat

regal flax

actually 1 more question, did the timer on seeing what you got affect pulls?

muted wind
#

but shizuku, tsukushi, and patty are essentially free from grinding, so at least get their augments when you get them

muted wind
regal flax
#

i dont care about meta anyway

i mean most gachas dont have one, do you get enough skips that it dosent matter?

muted wind
#

i have... 6000 spare quick finishers. i'd say so. MurmWat

regal flax
#

i saw tsukushi in the shop, but how do you get hizuku and patty

muted wind
#

shizuku should be in your dock for npc trust missions. if you get 1000 points, she joins permanently (grind), use her in the boss fleet for double trust. patty is from the pt milestones at 10k points (event grind, essentially overlaps with trying to get tsukushi)

how to get baguette

brƩguet? core shop (not a priority) or gear lab (don't think that path is worth the cost) MurmWat

Question about shipgirls skill which increase stats by %

For example for QE 15% stat boost, does it apply :
-on the total ammount of stats, base + gear + tech points
-or only on the base stats of the shipgirl

muted wind
#

the former. basically what they enter combat with before any skills proc

rare forge
#

Thx, and do you know if multiple stats buffs are applied additively or multiplicatively ? For example two 15% buff

  • 15%+15% or 1.15*1.15
muted wind
#

they add an amount relative to the base value before skill buffs

so 15%+15%

there was a bonus i just dont rmb how much EssexWheeze

#

... the fact that this isn't in the patch notes for the doa collab rerun is a bit concerning though

wind hazel

it had cringe crafting stuff too

muted wind

-# yeah, which was also multiplied. but it did apply to event pts DunktsukiStare

ivory pawn
#

Short duration and ran at the same time as the new event too. I sincerely hope they just forgot to put it in patch notes.

muted wind
#

ryza rerun actually only started two days late, not a whole week. so you actually have less time for the doa rerun. and let's just hope there is a multiplier they forgot to mention in the patch notes.

wind hazel

jp notes


 1 Duration reduced to 2 weeks→1 week

 2 Cumulative Pt Number of Rewards Adjust the hurdles to obtaining various rewards downward (SR "Female Tengu" requires Pt 10,000 → 5,000), and add some rewards

 3. Adjustment of the product lineup at the event shop (Pt exchange) (addition of construction support tickets, etc.)

 4. Light Reprint Login Bonus Campaign

 If you log in to the game during the event, you can get the following rewards in the event banner

 Day 1 Construction Support Ticket Ɨ3

 Day 2 Event PtƗ1000

 Day 3 Construction Support Ticket Ɨ3

 5 Adds rewards for some limited missions

 6. Added the daily exclusive mission "Clear any event stage once" (Event Pt300, T3 textbook available)

 7. Add a first-time clearing bonus (5x) for each sea area every day

 8 Fuel consumption limits and clear rewards have been added to some event stages

 9. The progress of the event waters will be carried over from the progress of the first "Vacation Lane Reprint" event

 Up to 31 Construction Support Tickets available for 10 event rewards

 11 Adjust the difficulty of the extra stage downwards```

was it SP event as well?

5x for all stage seems ok

standard stuff i guess

oh, okay, nice. didn't remember if the first rerun had that since it did run for 2 weeks.

how many tickets do we get for SR events?

Up to 31 Construction Support Tickets available for 10 event rewards
this part?

ye, like UR we get 1 less from JP, 44 vs 45 or something

Is this true that weapon reload apply on the upper rounding ?
I didn't saw any source on the wiki

vanguard guns run at a 10hz interval, so yes. the part this is not directly pointing out that guns also have an additional fixed delay that actually leads to those numbers iirc MurmWat

Oh i see ManjuuNom

wait, actually, these numbers seem weird? i know it rounds up, but that... still feels slightly wrong.

not 0.51-0.6 -> 0.7

woven star

Absolute cd and etc maybe

yeah. i'm frankly not sure what's correct there. all i know is that volley time (0s for this gun) and some extra fixed delay (0.3s for DD guns) still apply. MurmWat

abscd, i know the wiki states a different value but there is various reasons why the wiki numbers are higher, 0.25 is vettted by suchi but its also an average

that's... interesting. i figured it was the auto_aftercast value (which matches the wiki), but i guess there's more weird stuff going on

-# as in i get that there is an absolute cooldown, i was wondering about the specific value

boreal wagon
#

u can ask suchi how exactly it all works i dont fully remember it all

but like abscd/vt are gonna be different per ship per skin

because of chibi animations

@undone plover I beat the first event stage. I remember you saying something about it.

Need to make Shizuku not an NPC and if you do so, then you should buy the Tempura in the event shop for 3000

weary edge

tempura snacks for 3000!?! inflation has caught up šŸ’”šŸ’”

how do i get shizuku?

inland shoal
#

Usual NPC stuff

thorn tartan
#

oh i have her.... nm

inland shoal
#

Yeah but make sure you got the 1000 pts too so she's permanent

thorn tartan

sorry i had a CV filter on when I searched for her

Just to confirm, after doa is kazan event right?

tho faction fleeting is not ideal for anything really

timid vortex
#

If nakhimov is so good with soyuz, who could be the third of these?

weary edge
#

which at tha tpoint you're better off using an mlb unit

#

im assuming you're early game, which at that point shizuku is a strong starter

viscid swift
timid vortex
weary edge
#

yes

#

still a lot cheaper than using 4 bulins

timid vortex
#

I have 0 gold bulins so no matter for me

weary edge
#

frankly the only noteable units you have there are aquila, unicorn, shizuku and the URs

Do we know the dates of the next UR and Alsace rerun? or do we know about when they'd publish those dates?

eternal basalt
#

No and no

#

In the CN livestream

onyx flame
#

new ur is most likely end may when cn anni NurnNom but thats the closest for estimation you get

clear harbor
#

I have travel coming up and I'm stressing over the rerun even though I probably shouldn't be. 😩 Alsace is the last of the "mostly useful" URs that I don't have. Although I already have Bisz, Lion, and Meck, so she's probably not a huge addition to my fleet overall.

undone plover
#

june-july for alsace rerun would be my guess

eternal basalt
#

I say immediately following CN anni but WarShrug

undone plover
#

yeah i am also more inclined to believe june cuz of that

timid beacon
#

I just hope it comes soon I want more ships.

Alsace and mogador specifically..

rotund birch
#

hello, i have a question when will be bismarck zwei added to the normal banner?

tulip tinsel
#

should be added to perma pool in a few months

undone plover
#

for now imo NJ unicorn enterprise takao sirius jean d'arc
farm event SP4 and the 1 time stage
1 fleet should work i believe

work on san diego, get indep from core data shop and retro her as well
imo save UR bulins for this next CN anni event unless u have a lot (how much spec core/UR bulin u have?)

#

others u can work for fleet 2 later is volga and yukikaze
also dont ignore shipyard

nocturne magnet
#

just unlocked OpSi any guides i can read for beginners?

#

does the u idol version of ships contribute towards their fleet tech? no right?

#

This is my current fleet, and i just finished the rookie missions so I can choose NJ or Shinano. Which one would be better for me? Or in general?

midnight salmon
viscid swift
# spice idol This is my current fleet, and i just finished the rookie missions so I can choos...

We could probably make a pin or a command out of it at this point. In short neither is a great pick.

NJ would be better in the short term in isolation, but she'll get powercrept more quickly because the devs release so many UR BBs.

Shinano will be relevant for longer but you also won't get that much value out of her in the short term because to shine she really needs to be paired with other IJN UR CVs.

Neither is high priority for UR Bullins.

spice idol
#

Thanks. And would NJ be basically useless in my fleet without MLB?

Whats the next UR on Perma?

Invest in shizuku for second fleet?

Any augment worth crafting for Aquila? Or should I just wait until I have a powerful ship with her own augment..

If you want to be optimal, wait until you drop a blue Scepter then upgrade it to purple.
But you'll want enough purple Scepters that it isn't a big deal crafting some.

Another ship's* augment cannot be used on a different ship. Can't even use Laffey's augment on Laffey 2.

#

Look at "The Fox Spirit's Retreat" under the left event portrait in the top right of the home screen.

#

And yeah probably. At least enough to get the useful stuff like cogs, gear, the shop ship, etc.

If you aren't at stage 9 yet but can complete SP4 cosplayer I think you can use that as an oil cap farming stage.

Also start akashis mission by pressing her 30 times in the shop. Just found out this was a thing xD

Still got 7 or 8 days. I got from being unable to do sp4 and barely sp3 a few days ago to being able to 1:1 sp4.
Just read some guide and build the right ships from your dock.

I'd have to use a lot of those EXP book things to level my fleet.

She's un-limit broken, though.

Should I?

agile temple

uhh

#

i think so still? someone else might have to chime in but i think the CV being on the side doesnt matter as much as the BB bc of how BBs aim or something i think?

#

i atleast dont think there is any downside to it even if there isnt much gain

slow oxide
#

I don't know terms.
What's a CV and a BB?

Carrier and Battleship.

I thought so, why is it double B though? That confused me.

You Shizuku is off flag, 0 limit break so she only has one aux gun mount, and I'd wager probably not using the best aux gun either.

ivory pawn
#

Why level her dupes? Just use them to limit break her.

#

You'll get them passively just by playing.

slow oxide
#

I meant my fleet. Apologies, it does sound like I was referring to her dupes.

Yes.

The game calls it an aux gun; in naval circles, they're called secondary guns.

Use at least one bulin on shizuku now, it'll help you clear SP2 earlier and safer

Getting to 4000 hearts might be hard for new player so you could even use a second bulin now

So you farm SP2 until you can beat SP3.

Then you farm SP3 until you can beat SP4.

I'm not used to Gachas where mission completion actually gives substantial EXP.

slow oxide
ivory pawn
#

I feel that, AL's a bit of an outlier in that regard.

#

Hell, I think every other gacha I've played is more like Limbus, giving a little bit of exp if at all for stage clear and relying primarily on tickets.

nocturne zenith
#

Guess my dumbass was lucky to pull an aquila.

slow oxide
# ivory pawn I feel that, AL's a bit of an outlier in that regard.

It's odd though because I swear it didn't used to be the case until all of a sudden a whole bunch of games took that away and replaced it with EXP items consumption. Maybe everything's blurring together in my mind, though.
I've been playing Gacha games for probably a decade at this point.

But I digress.

#

Is laffey 2 (3 Stars) better than laffey (Full LB)?

sweet delta
#

In some cases yes but for most content like event or opsi, no

#

A level 1 laffii paired with Cowpens and/or zuihou can tank a lot of things while sacrificing vanguard damage and AA

Vanguards end up dying with this lineup

Always rush boss unless you're trying to do the third star

And you should do the third star when your fleet is more capable
