(meaning broke/bankrupt)

[ornate mantle]

wait i can just

save these for amagi

[cosmic pier]

There's one goddess u can pray to

hello

who is ready to buy 20$ worth of gems to get some hot boat girls

[cosmic pier]

why'd I spend 20$

[vale gull]

how much should I spend?

@cosmic pier

[cosmic pier]

0

[vale gull]

LOL

what a guy

[crisp palm]

if you planning on whaling

buy all the x2 pack once

cus we going to have x2 pack reset in the future

most likely at anniversary

[vale gull]

I already did

;-;

minus the most expensive one

bc I ant doing that xD

[cosmic pier]

yawn

I need so many bulins

[vale gull]

ikr

[cosmic pier]

3(or sth like 5 cuz 2 from exchange) per week just doesnt cut it

[vale gull]

I am running low on Mk.II

[cosmic pier]

I dont mind lack of purins that much

but got so many rares/elites I wanna mlb lul

[vale gull]

yup

[cosmic pier]

purin income is technically fine considering the amount of SSRs there are

[vale gull]

I am going to run into that problem soon

[oblique mantle]

Alright. Cleveland has been named

An easy choice

[cosmic pier]

did you name her clevedad

[oblique mantle]

Kayla

[cosmic pier]

I need like 24 bulins just to mlb the units I can think of and that on its own takes 8 weeks with just 3 weeklu bulins lul

Kayla eh

[wintry sonnet]

sounds pretty accurate, except for the annoying part

[cosmic pier]

lusty is offering me a soft landing

[oblique mantle]

A fine name for such a cute girl

I’m ready for bisko

[ornate mantle]

What.

Has Bismarck been confirmed to be a farmable.

[severe kestrel]

??

bismarck isnt even in collection

[limpid kite]

[dreamy turtle]

so much oil generation wasted

[stuck copper]

is there anyone else here

who has a defense fleet the same as their attacking fleet

am i the only one that does this

[dreamy turtle]

I'd imagine it's pretty common

I use the same pvp fleet for attacking and defending

not that it really matters what you use on defense

since everyone just resets til they win

[cosmic pier]

I dont always reset

I do reset before I get the top 1k rank for the sweet 1.5k merits

but after that I dont mind losing that much

[stuck copper]

I only reset when it’s obvious I could’ve won but Enty didn’t proc her skill

[cosmic pier]

also no, I dont have an "attacking fleet" since Im always levelling ships n stuff

and just make fleets on the go, even for new content

"do I wanna take this ship? sure leggo"

my defense lel

might just grab nagato and replace her with wash when she comes

for le barrage memes

[cosmic pier]

wash's barrage doesnt visually function like infinite darkness does

[stuck copper]

Here’s mine, I think I went for straight power over any sort of synergy

[cosmic pier]

caring bout your defense fleet

[stuck copper]

Gonna replace Laffey with Jintsuu though once she is retrofitted, built up, and oathed

B-but this is my attacking fleet too

[cosmic pier]

this is my pvp attack fleet

[stuck copper]

[cosmic pier]

such a cutie

[tough burrow]

who has a defense fleet the same as their attacking fleet I set defense fleet like 3 month ago and haven't touched since

But it was the same as attack fleet at that time

[cosmic pier]

defense fleet is only good for showing off your meme renames

[stuck copper]

i have one of those ark royal meme fleets. because why not.

[next onyx]

dangit.. was planning to splurge on upcoming skins but this morning my graphics card died. Running off Intel integrated graphics for now. So, I need to buy a new card but now I am thinking I might as well upgrade everything. I am still running off an i5 3570k OC

Oof..maybe I should go AMD this time around. They have some good chips for cheap

[stuck copper]

it's a trap

replacing old stuff feels like a waste of money, so you go better. but then you think "might as well invest a bit more and get something proper" and then you're at 4 digits.

but if you have the money, go ham, i guess.

[next onyx]

thing is the newer cards will be bottlenecked by my cpu unless I run it overclocked.

damn intel always changing socket types

[stuck copper]

yeah

i have a gtx 1060, but my system is bottlenecked by my i5-4670K

every modern game i play sits at 100% cpu, and maybe 60% gpu

but as long as i can play AL and SNES, i'm fine

[wintry sonnet]

fk, I can't dry out my oil fast enough

[cosmic pier]

farming 6-4 while levelling squad

[wintry sonnet]

7-2's not rough enough on the oil

[cosmic pier]

my oil dropped from 9k to 2k

farming 9-4

still no niizuki

[next onyx]

^ me too

[wintry sonnet]

yeah I think I'll go back to 9-4

[cosmic pier]

like

[wintry sonnet]

I need to go undercap to pick up the canteen stuff

[cosmic pier]

I beg rng for niizuki and it doesnt give me
I retreat to 6-4 to use less oil while levelling ships and taking a break from 9-4

7th run, I get third yuudachi this week

rng pls

gimme that niizuki already

[stuck copper]

i try to hover around 7k in preparation for CE

[next onyx]

yeah farming for elites on boss only nodes is more troublesome than SRs unless you get lucky

[cosmic pier]

1 more poi dupe and I have her MLB'd without a single purin use

[oblique mantle]

Whew.. I for once have nothing to do in al right now. Mission accomplished

[cosmic pier]

thankfully I got nichol ass in like 15 runs, she didnt turn into much a pain in the butt like niizuki is being lel

[oblique mantle]

Nice rng streak rei

[next onyx]

I am reminded of my Inazuma farm everytime I run 9-4. Plz don't turn into another Inazuma farm..

[cosmic pier]

thanks

rng is a weird thing

[oblique mantle]

I’ll keep count with the same sentence each time till you get it

[cosmic pier]

lol

evil is my personal counter now

[oblique mantle]

Till there is something to do In AL. Might as well goof around

[stuck copper]

6 ship drops to go...

[cosmic pier]

PoW skill hitting 10 in the morn, about just in time to grab her skill for her
then I prob gonna level bunnies' division skill or something

[wintry sonnet]

if you want stuff to goof with, there's plenty to go about

[cosmic pier]

[wintry sonnet]

do danger level for each map, unlock all the drops on every map, stuff like that

[oblique mantle]

Yes Usually goofing with oj

See thats boring aquan.

None of the drop girls interest me

Also most of our worlds have had ijn girls as drops for gold.

Can I attack kms in the next world please?

[wintry sonnet]

I know what you mean

it's getting kinda boring to fight IJN over and over

[cosmic pier]

oj eh

aint played that in a while

[oblique mantle]

I’m not all about it mate. They gave me french girls. I want jean to be perfected and fight her again

[wintry sonnet]

dont even know why that is, I thought KMS and IJN were supposed to be allied

[oblique mantle]

I wanna slam Richelieu already

[wintry sonnet]

so why are we fighting only IJN for 12 chapters

[oblique mantle]

Exactly

[wintry sonnet]

I mean heck, we get to fight hornet in 1-3

[oblique mantle]

Training exercise

I would like to fight the vichiya if they get more ships

[wintry sonnet]

hm

I might stream some 9-4 to drain my oil down a bit

[oblique mantle]

Have fun with that man.

[wintry sonnet]

7-2's just too slow to do it

and I keep gaining oil cause of commissions

[oblique mantle]

150 or so oil

One day I’ll get those not 45 comissions

[cosmic pier]

one day I'll get all the drop ships

then be in a pinch cuz lack of dock space

[oblique mantle]

Just hit it to 270

[wintry sonnet]

I'm sitting at 220 now and still got some space left with like 10 bulins/purins

with only 3 ships missing

[cosmic pier]

think Im at 280 now

so reluctantly bought dock spaces

[oblique mantle]

Slowly trying to move mine down due these girls I need to level and dupes for mlb capping

[cosmic pier]

popping the christmas gift gems I got on dock space feels weird at best

[oblique mantle]

But mow that Imm safe from another major event. Been speed running five ladies to 120

[cosmic pier]

I will get to a point where I'll have to scrap ships I dont really plan on using

[wintry sonnet]

welp, time to fight my pc trying to get it to recognise my phone as a mic

[oblique mantle]

No headset?

[wintry sonnet]

either my motherboard's messed up and doesnt recognise the sound card properly

or my OS's corrupted

I'm gonna go on monday and buy some cheap external sound card for headphone/mic

should buy me some time while working out some extra funds on a motherboard

[oblique mantle]

A fine plan to me

[wintry sonnet]

my pc's been in a constant state of disrepair for a while now

sound card not recognized, hdmi audio randomly crackling and driving framerate down, monitor going black from time to time

not exactly surprising since it is a 7 year old pc

[oblique mantle]

Oh. No doubt its on a steady decline then

[wintry sonnet]

yeah, well

as long as my harddrive doesnt die

[oblique mantle]

It can last even longer

[wintry sonnet]

I can live with anything else needing a replacement but I'll be damned if I lose all the drive stuff

[oblique mantle]

Well heres to hoping it stays stable for another 4 more years at most

[wintry sonnet]

doubt it, but hopefully this year I can go for a completely brand new pc

[oblique mantle]

Or that

[wintry sonnet]

ok, mic finally got picked up

[oblique mantle]

[cosmic pier]

I think I'll chill down playing and just do dailies for a while till I get back to soft cap then back to farming

need a slight break also

been farming too much cuz classes ended cuz a week or two before exams

[wintry sonnet]

I think I'll be good once I bring my oil down to 4k

[cosmic pier]

mmm

give me your oil

[wintry sonnet]

by the time CE comes up, I' should easily get up to cap

[cosmic pier]

oh I just remembered something

I guess I do have some oil

[wintry sonnet]

this is coming up to a great start

[stuck copper]

aint used her yet

her damage will be 0

so

now i'm almost done with 10-1

[ornate mantle]

Oh nice.

I’m still doing 10-4, but I haven’t done it in about 2 days.

[wintry sonnet]

I still got like 2-3k oil left to spend I planned on spendin today

so I guess I'll switch to 9-3

the second I went in

3 large main fleets

always a good sign

[cosmic pier]

a good sign to give up on the 10 oil

[wintry sonnet]

well, I'm ok with that cause I need main gun plates anyway

and I'm running Akashi anyway for affection

[cosmic pier]

got 2 100mm bp and 1 royal box

thanks rng

I really needed those

well

the box gave me my second UFO

cant really complain now

[stuck copper]

Wish I actually had that gun lol

[cosmic pier]

only got 2 myself, with that one

know a guy who farmed a ton in 7-2

[past kiln]

I'm almost done farming my second from 7-2
Got 0 from boxes
But the 105 is mostly comparable, and I have 10+ of those, so w/e

[tough burrow]

I couldn't be bothered to farm for those. Opened some boxes few days ago. Got 2

[toxic scroll]

[toxic scroll]

i got isuzu purely because i use 7-3 as my ship leveling map

[solar fjord]

thought you were talking about st.louis

[cosmic pier]

[toxic scroll]

better expand your dock more

[cosmic pier]

I spend any more gems and I'll be ruining my skin buying schedule

gotta live with scrapping ships I dont like soon

wasn't it always in slow mode?

No

[wintry sonnet]

or do you meanlockdown

[oblique mantle]

It wasn’t

[wintry sonnet]

[oblique mantle]

I should know since yesterday I was able to put in art one after the other with no problem.

[wintry sonnet]

huh, well shit

to be fair if memes was on slowmode, then it makes sense for al art to be on slowmode too

[oblique mantle]

Memes is one terrible terrible animal.

[wintry sonnet]

it did kinda take a life of its own

[oblique mantle]

Never again.

[solar fjord]

has memes gone even more degen

[tough burrow]

It's always degen

[oblique mantle]

Exactly

[wintry sonnet]

It went from being a "post al-related memes" to just post whatever memes

in otherwords, it became a shitshow

[solar fjord]

was always post whatever meme

[oblique mantle]

Actually.. we had it in descriptions

Al memes

Or did

[wintry sonnet]

yeah, I vaguely recall that description

either in the channel topic, or in the channel descriptions

[dim crystal]

al memes only should be the rule

really

if i want to see normal memes I could have found them everywhere else\

[oblique mantle]

That is very true

[tough burrow]

It was AL memes at first but was changed iirc

[solar fjord]

[wintry sonnet]

gotta love that floor 2 regen

5 hours of farming before orange face

[sand robin]

wow i just saw the new UI for AL

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kG3a5tLomYg

[ornate mantle]

Alrighty, just retroed Leander

[solar fjord]

nice

still using her more than belfast

[gloomy temple]

That new UI looks nice

[bleak condor]

[dim crystal]

new UI in EN when

[ornate mantle]

Next update please.

[tough burrow]

[ornate mantle]

Damn.

That build UI looks absolutely phenomenal.

But I'm gonna miss the current UI because of how sleep and simple it is.

[tough burrow]

current is pretty meh tbf

[ornate mantle]

It is simple.

[oblique mantle]

Simple isn’t always better

[gloomy temple]

But simple is gud enough

[stuck copper]

first and foremost, it needs to be clear and functional, considering you're supposed to play this on a phone. the new one fails to do that in some places. for example, the claim buttons on those commissions are blue, which is similar to the background. they should have kept them yellow. i could go on, but i think you get my point.

moving the menu bar above the banner over to the right is a good move though.

[oblique mantle]

Till I test it in jp I have no intentions of saying anything. It’s not out so it all is subject to change

[ornate mantle]

@oblique mantle : True, but I think the simple that AL has is very nice. I've played a lot of games that have some crazy looking UI that really make the game seem overly complicated.

I'm definitely looking forward to the UI, but I'll definitely miss the fresh breathe of air that the current UI has.

[dim crystal]

hmmm

checking out some of the unreleased ships

i hope they tone down the designs of some loli ships

I meant.... for example, albacore

why

[oblique mantle]

No one knows

I’m not exactly excited for that one either

[dim crystal]

I know they are supposed to cater to every single fetish

[oblique mantle]

I got her in jp, I knew not to ever ever ever. Have that as my secretary

[idle tree]

Albacore is probably the most extreme case, but all Subs are in swimwear so

[oblique mantle]

Looked like some creep put a swimsuit too big for her

Yeah, funny every sub looks like they dressed to fit

Compared to albacore

Some examples

[idle tree]

All I need is U-47

Albacore’s outfit looks better on Taihou anyways

[oblique mantle]

All dressed to fit

[idle tree]

Yeah but you see how they aren’t tiny

Hard to find a bikini that fits

These are war times

[oblique mantle]

Albacore is the same size as those two girls up top

Even that sub has one that fits. Same

Size too

[idle tree]

I have Albacore, she definitely looks smaller imo, not height but her frame

Also she has a a bunch of stuff hanging on her swim suit anyways

That adds to the lewdness of it

Daijoubu they are older than we are

[oblique mantle]

Doesn’t help the age from their date deployed is not the exact age for them in game either.

A few confirm that in game

[dim crystal]

4 cubes

lul

[ripe mantle]

i mean: the ship != the Kansen

so it makes sense

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[cosmic pier]

@ripe mantle i got a second ufo

be jelly

[ripe mantle]

im not even farming roomba

[cosmic pier]

same

9-4 boss dropped royal box

instead of niizuki

me too.... been trying to hold off farming ><

[stuck copper]

This may sound a bit stupid, but how do people have extra ammo on their fleets?

[slow drum]

akashi/vestal

I think the 2nd or 3rd lb gives you extra ammo to your fleet

[stuck copper]

OH thanks

[south seal]

let the farming commence

[slow drum]

so hms gets destroyed by 10-1 strong battleship fleets rip

at least my hms does ;-:

[cosmic pier]

your hms probs sucks

[stuck copper]

@slow drum what are you using for your HMS?

[sand robin]

need good gear + upgraded skills for HMS

[slow drum]

queen (skill lvl 8), hood (skill is lvl 8), unicorn(skill is lvl 5), belfast (max skills), javelin kai (max skills), ajax kai (skills are low lvl)

I gave them fire supressors cleared 2 of them but noe they are too low for the 3rd that just spawned

[rustic blaze]

Yeah, probably just the skills that's causing you to lose.. (And slightly maybe ajax but I'm not really sure)

[sand robin]

ajax has low health iirc

my HMS frontline are leander Kai, Edin and belfap

[slow drum]

my leander is lvl 70ish and edin too

[sand robin]

play on manual?

[slow drum]

I am

[dreamy turtle]

Do you have Akashi or Vestal?

[slow drum]

I'll just try again I hope I won't get 3 of these strong battleship fleets and only the normal ones

[rustic blaze]

If your backline is dying to BB barrages, try canceling out the backline shelling with Unicorn's Air Strikes or any airstrikes for that matter.

[slow drum]

I'll try

I'll just farm on 5-1 and other maps while lvling leander, edin and helena

*and vestal

[past kiln]

If they aren't immediately dying, with HMS, swap Hood out of flagship spot for QE on easier nodes to spread out the damage

But yeah, even with maxed danger level, nothing can consistently tank flagship spot in ch 10 without any support, even if you avoid 3* BB nodes

[slow drum]

yea but I have to do them to get the 3 stars
and without clearing the whole map I don't get any danger lvls at all anyways

[past kiln]

And yes, it's perfectly viable to just reset the map until no 3* BB nodes spawn
That's what I did when going for full clear. If any spawned, I'd just clear normally, avoiding it, and restart; it's much less stressful that way.

[slow drum]

I can beat it when 2 spawn if more spawn rip me

[severe kestrel]

i dont think you have to full clear for danger levels

actually nvm, im not sure

[slow drum]

trying to find it on the wiki

ok found it
"That is, the danger level mechanic only kicks after you reach 100% for the map and starts increasing the next time you clear said map"

[stuck copper]

memorize BB spawn patterns and save your activated abilities so you can burn them down the moment they spawn.

they are super sturdy and will wear you down if you let them live

[cosmic pier]

I dont need to memorize em

got my trusty infinite darkness to get rid of em

[sand robin]

BB backline attacks are fixed

they will fire at escort ships for 2-3 salvos first then the last 2 salvos fire at your backline... keep the air strikes for that time

[cosmic pier]

specially important when fighting 10-3 boss

[past kiln]

Yeah, 10-3 boss before danger levels really nukes your backline
CV almost mandatory for that one, without cancels even tankier BBs can die

@wintry sonnet your feet are almost here

[wintry sonnet]

where's the feet tho

[cosmic pier]

hiding

guess I shoulda said legs

[tough burrow]

If we're getting Atago - we're getting Cleve as well

[stuck copper]

When is Essex getting a skin

[oblique mantle]

Whenever they decide to care it seems

Took a while for helen

[cosmic pier]

good thin I already got best cleve skin

just had to delay a fight as much as possible cuz my backlane had got kinda rekt and I had to let akashi heal lel

[tough burrow]

akashi

[cosmic pier]

smh

cant even use a healer without getting judged

[wintry sonnet]

still no st louis tweet

they're saving the best for last I guess

[cosmic pier]

they already announced pow skin tho

so that cant be the case

[tough burrow]

[past oasis]

[oblique mantle]

Gotta catch em all

[tough burrow]

[cosmic pier]

meanie

show off

[oblique mantle]

Who me? Not all the time.

[cosmic pier]

last time you were showing off your gun

[oblique mantle]

Which one?

Rifle, pistol, shotgun?

[oblique mantle]

Ahahhaa

My ksg

Ah she’s indeed a lethal beauty

[cosmic pier]

[oblique mantle]

People always asked what kinda ship class I would be.

Light cruiser for all the up close and personal damage baby

[wintry sonnet]

so basically

Evil'd be Sheffield

[oblique mantle]

Whats with you people and maids

[wintry sonnet]

Because my preferred pronoun is goshujin-sama

[oblique mantle]

You just want her to look at you with disgust is all right?

[wintry sonnet]

I mean

there's something intrinsically appealing in an idea of a symbol of servitude, a maid, showing dominance towards you

[oblique mantle]

This is not what I was expecting to hear.

But thats okay.

I’ll give you points for honesty.

[tough burrow]

But how many points you'll remove for being degenerate?

[wintry sonnet]

Dont see how deducting points for degeneracy on this discord would make sense

when it's the default settings

[cosmic pier]

idk whats with me and maids but I know I like em
I prob wont be winning any points

guess you could say its the attire

but then again I wouldnt be fine with just a random cosplay

[tough burrow]

how they act is part of maid fetish, so cosplay won't cover that really

[cosmic pier]

[wintry sonnet]

it's gotta be wholesome

[cosmic pier]

Im kinda stuck between belfast type and sheffield type tho

[wintry sonnet]

I welcome meidos of any kind, but ones with strong personality I hold in particular high regard

[cosmic pier]

not having preferences n all those stuff makes answering these kinda stuffs hard lel

aquan gimme niizuki

17/15 100mm

[past oasis]

I like maids because I just want someone to care about me

[wintry sonnet]

Lemme see what the bot thinks about it

[oblique mantle]

Idk man.

[celest sinew]

D e g e n e r a t e s?

[wintry sonnet]

Not your day Rei

[cosmic pier]

F

[celest sinew]

🇫

[oblique mantle]

Their alright to me. I just see em in anime and I’m like. Either they’ll be cool. They’ll be some onee san type, or they’ll be a battle maid

Always that category for maids, and this game makes no exception

Forgot the ones that call you scum too.

[wintry sonnet]

yeah I was about to say

you forgot the sadistic ones

[oblique mantle]

And deductions? I’ll let you decide action

[cosmic pier]

I also just like the general idea of maids, sometimes just get lost in thought thinking how'd stuff go if I had a maid or was a maid myself, not in a strict environment, like the type of maid that gets friendly ish with their master a bit and all that, and sure bit of anime influence

like how aquan wants a sibling cuz anime

[oblique mantle]

Shoot, if I thought about it that way.

I’ll take maid role 3. Battle maid

[cosmic pier]

lol

[oblique mantle]

With a hint of calling people scum so it fits

[cosmic pier]

[oblique mantle]

Yeah, basically lupus regina

[cosmic pier]

phew got a gold box from a commission

time to get a purple something

[tough burrow]

I mean, you have guns and call people scum as is. All you need is maid attire

[cosmic pier]

im trying to imagine that

[wintry sonnet]

Evil meido cosplay when

[cosmic pier]

I'd pay for that

[wintry sonnet]

That sounds surprisingly what Evil would say

are we certain Evil's not actually Sheffield

[dreamy turtle]

this is what I like seeing

[cosmic pier]

nice

hmmm

Evil got hit by truck-kun and got reincarnated as sheffield? @wintry sonnet

[wintry sonnet]

We'll need to go deeper

[wintry sonnet]

Sheffield has some amazing research books I mean what

[oblique mantle]

You said the same with honolulu when you discovered we have the same array of sarcasm

[cosmic pier]

@wintry sonnet

[wintry sonnet]

I admit to my mistake

[solar fjord]

Didn't mean to post a pic

[cosmic pier]

I actually got into sheffield (wait that sounds lewd) through research

[wintry sonnet]

You're definitely more of a Sheffield Evil

[solar fjord]

Sig

[wintry sonnet]

lulu's actually cute

[cosmic pier]

she got great footwork on the sea

[oblique mantle]

Sup link

Yes Sheffield is one of the better maids

[cosmic pier]

shef is my #1 maid, second's either belchan or suffolk (evil will prob look at me with disgust cuz of the belchan part) and third I guess edin

I like her clumsiness

[wintry sonnet]

I'll hold back on tiering the meidos until I get more familiarized with Newcastle

[solar fjord]

[oblique mantle]

Just look up her lines

She also has a retrofit

[cosmic pier]

looking lines up in wiki doesnt feel right to for getting a feel of the character

[stuck copper]

Enka has made two skins for PoW

But none for the crane sisters

[cosmic pier]

I rather have em ingame, hear their voice and all that as I read their lines etc

[wintry sonnet]

Lines alone are k but I rather get both the voice and the lines

[oblique mantle]

Hmm? The voices also are in the wiki with the lines usually?

[wintry sonnet]

oh

they are, lel

I never clicked the japanese lines

[cosmic pier]

slow clap

[wintry sonnet]

I like where this is going

[oblique mantle]

That is..an interesting line.

Regular touch?

[wintry sonnet]

yup

her special touch is "... ... do you like soft things that much? If I give you a warm and soft hug, could you then stop this?"

[oblique mantle]

Good

[wintry sonnet]

fuck, this discord is getting to me

[oblique mantle]

My favorite line to hear is douchlands

[cosmic pier]

I quite like her special touch already

[wintry sonnet]

I read her line starting with "The tides" as "the tiddies"

[oblique mantle]

With her princess carry

[wintry sonnet]

[oblique mantle]

Yowch aquan

[cosmic pier]

quite wholesome for your typical oppai grab reply

[oblique mantle]

But yeah. Douchland affection line is golden.

So demanding to be carried like a princess. Then she really demands it

[wintry sonnet]

uh, what

"... It really is strange that you are able to make such unassuming normal days become unforgivable. Once one has tasted such happiness that it seems like one's heart will burst, how am I expected to remain collected like this?"

unforgivable

[oblique mantle]

What is that?

[wintry sonnet]

shouldn't that be unforgettable

[tough burrow]

[cosmic pier]

smh

[oblique mantle]

That needs to change

[cosmic pier]

typos even on wiki

[wintry sonnet]

newcastle's pledge

[oblique mantle]

Like right now

[tough burrow]

#wiki-feedback

[cosmic pier]

[wintry sonnet]

I mean, I dunno if her voice line actually says unforgivable

since they're not uploaded to wiki

but it does seem like an odd thing for her to say

[cosmic pier]

unforgivable makes 0 sense

[wintry sonnet]

that'd be a very out of character thing for her to say going by her other lines

[oblique mantle]

Wiki feedback and where for typo lines in game

I swear en has the most typo lines

[cosmic pier]

um

sure

[wintry sonnet]

yodo

[cosmic pier]

lol

I mean

even through my non existent feelings I'd die if it was her asking

[oblique mantle]

Concern

[cosmic pier]

lol

dont bother

another run another no niizuki

[wintry sonnet]

now that I get a good look

Newscastle's retrofit is a bit, uh

lacking

[cosmic pier]

the cg?

[wintry sonnet]

yeah

most retrofits you see some kind of outfit/body change

hers is just a second hull with gun turrets

[cosmic pier]

mhm, it more looks like just a pose change lol

slight one at that

[oblique mantle]

Shame really

[tough burrow]

The only change in costume is she lost her sleeves

[wintry sonnet]

didnt even notice that

that's how little of an impact it was to me

[oblique mantle]

Hopefully we don’t start resorting to that for future retros

I never really paid attention to her. But that’s a dam shame its so plain

[wintry sonnet]

yeah, it looks really spartan in comparison with something like starter retrofits

[cosmic pier]

tfw mutsu spawns

but eats a full infinite darkness and some torps

and wishes she never spawned

[stuck copper]

When Nagato and Mutsu drop I’m gonna get PTSD after grinding W10 before danger level

[oblique mantle]

Huh? Nagato?

You okay?

[cosmic pier]

hm?

Imma have to ask you that very question, evil

[oblique mantle]

Yeah. nagato isn’t a drop

[cosmic pier]

guy basically means when he gets her

"when she drops from build"

sth like that

[oblique mantle]

With how things are going out of order. That could be a long time from now.

[wintry sonnet]

It's not that I wouldn't want nagato event soon

but... we're just getting a 2nd IJN event already

let other nations get something first

[cosmic pier]

no

let ijn bias win

kappa

[wintry sonnet]

boi

[oblique mantle]

So many major events I would like

Sick of ijn taking them all anyways

[cosmic pier]

even with that idk if I want winter's crown next or not lel

cant afford missing sheffield

[tough burrow]

It doesn't matter what we want

[wintry sonnet]

But I'm a paying customer

[cosmic pier]

never does

[solar fjord]

Need more German engineering

[stuck copper]

right, my bad

Drop as in “come to EN”

[solar fjord]

Did they say how long the AL store in akihabara will be there

[cosmic pier]

[toxic scroll]

oh yeah

[ornate mantle]

That's hot.

[toxic scroll]

PoW's original art

[ornate mantle]

[toxic scroll]

she was almost a loli

kinda looked like QW but taller and not flat

[ornate mantle]

Woah, I kinda like the Original Art more.

[frozen sphinx]

Lewd. I like it.

[toxic scroll]

it's so

different

i'm sad the hat is gone though

[frozen sphinx]

Much more different. I prefer current, but this look, quite good.

[toxic scroll]

i actually like the OG art more

[upbeat herald]

lol, they reused the rigging.

[toxic scroll]

rigging was minimally altered

color maybe lmao

[frozen sphinx]

It's normal, that they use original rig, it's her rigging after all.

[toxic scroll]

i mean like

it's literally the same

not different at all

[cosmic pier]

I like her as she is now

prob cuz of the hairstyle

well, maybe if she was still a loli I'd get a loli jotaro

hm

[ornate mantle]

I like the OG art hairtsyle more.

Have a bias towards drill hair.

[toxic scroll]

^

like QE

but QE is slightly less drill

[cosmic pier]

I do like that on the OG tho

opposed to the plain white on the current art

[toxic scroll]

cutegirl boots

and leggings
