imo, collecting gear for every ship that i use so i don't have to gear swap
is minmaxing
and i despise minmaxing
It isn't that bad in AL tbh, purple gears are plenty
if I refused to swap gear akaga would be stuck with ijn planes
gl trying to unique banana on all CV CVL
unless it's a piece of gear that we only have a very small amount of (oxy torp)
it's not an issue
imagine using that many CVs
good luck with suicide boats
hint: you won't
when we get core data you going to wish that they add something else in the shop that is not oxy torp
LMFAO
bold of you to assume we get that anytime soon
the discussion was never about using them in PVE
Just get 20x sb2c 
if you're gearing a ship you're probably using them in PvE at least
so i mean
you have no right to call anything invalid lmao
Use purple bananas on CVs that aren't used that much until you get the ripe yellow ones
yellow ones are more rare than akashi giving you a discount
i can just put gold unique and still don't use them
like i put gold 127 on my CA
just to put gear skin on them
LMFAO
mfw you open a gold hms box and see banana but it's purple
gold helldiver when
that will be $5.99 + tax pls and ty
leaving them alone in dorm for 16h with+35% exp was a smart idea
my lasts 16h with 4 in dorm
i mean the exp bonus
it can if you let expand it
if you are in a rush to lvl them just lvl them in battle if you ask me
if I just boost them in dorm that's like sending them on 3 1200oil commissions
i only expanded my cap to 60000
how much you would have to expand it to or waste food for times that long
i'd rather not
expand food bar is only worth it if you travel like 24/7
or work
even then you can just log in for 5 min fill the bar up and continue
which i'm not on AL more often or not
you don't/shouldn't be on your phone at work
or driving
or in class
pretty sure a 1 min toilet break is all you need
ect...
10h of food for 40k
you've clearly never been truly busy
and
so you work 16h w/o a break?
all iam saying is that you can fill the bar in less then 1 min
you can be busy all you want my point is you can fill the bar in 1 min and i highly doubt you work 16h straight w/o a break

the last thing i think about is
"oh man i gotta feed my fake anime girls"
lmao that's pathetic
well the time taken to post in discord should be more than enough to hop onto AL to refill the food bar?
"oh man i gotta feed my fake anime girls"
i forget all the time
actually since i only use f1 for lving, it isnt even important for me to do so
am going to get a shit rank on the anniv

@sand robin considering that during the day, it's extremely likely that I'm not on my phone
I'm either doing other things at home, driving, in class, doing homework between classes/at home
AL among other things have taken a steep drop on my list of things to care about
I didn't know brooklyn, Phoenix & helena where sisters

I thought st.louis was her sister
even though Helena and St.Louis are St.Louis class 
But yes
They're all sisters regardless
hai-hallo
@toxic scroll : I know the feeling.
I was strongly considering buying food space yesterday.
But then I realized that’s less gems for skins and shelves the idea immediately.
increase dorm supplies to 23h with 5 girls

I'm at 16h with 4 atm
only 7h left until u check how much exp they got

Does anybody know the ammo type Yuudachi's barrage uses?
her barrage looks like it's HE

Not that much iirc
Maybe even none...?
No idea
(I have like 30 cubes, so I hope none
)

I dont know who I am
I dont know why Im here
all I know is lexington skin is killing my remaining gems tomorrow
I don't use Lexington, she is lvl 65 in my dock, but that skin is going to make me use her in my fleets now
lvl 65 due to commissions
lol
one of my favourites since the beginning
too bad she doesnt have a retro (yet)
hard to say if she'll even get one since she was sunk in the war

Just to point out
Retrofits are literally any time they were changed even armament wise
So most if not all ships come under this


I was talking about the patch notes above, Restart
not the patch notes in the tweet
the ones with rate ups 
iirc Yat Sen was added in perma
but had a rate up alongside the other 2 for the duration
either way, sucks
if those were EN rate ups, that'd mean Yat Sen'd be a likely mini event instead of constructible

what's more worrisome to me tho, is that out of the 11 ships we're getting tomorrow, 7 are limited construction on JP
at this rate it looks like the freebie ships will be Spee, Fu Shun and An Shan

oh my
glob

Noice Amagi 
omg...so many amazing skins. Good thing I ain't married, or else I would have to explain what I am doing with all my money
@ornate mantle The skins just keep coming, brother
@next onyx : We can only handle so much at once, brother
The notice is out though, so the skins might just cease for the moment.
I am greatly disappointed that the Belfast skin didn’t come to EN
Also huh?

What's this then
Welp, let's see how much money remains from paycheck after bills are paid
"Shikikan no Shinda, Kono hito de nashi"




That skin ain’t nothing special for belfast. It’ll come eventually
I’m looking to get my hands on Entys
so we have 7 ships to get out of limited build?... fuck

well i mainly want Yat Sen... but yeah thats going to be a pain in the dick to get





all the skins require you to go beyond
haha my birthday month so i should be able to get at least the belfast skin!
Damn.
I was getting excited for the prospect of enty finally getting a L2D skin.
Maybe when she gets an Alterprise skin it'll be like 2k gems.
id rather pay 5k gems for a skin on alter as an entirely different ship

I like the skin idea more.

Someone knock me out until the end of EN maintenance. The maint hasnt even started yet, and i cant wait anymore.

@rich gazelle : I know how you feel
I need these skins and rolls already.
Only got 160 subbed though, so kinda worried.
Technically got like 210 though.
Since mail.
hue, i dont really want to dip into the mail emergency fund myself. but if i have to 
8h maint
hey at least i am going to have a good sleep for once
I always have a good sleep
Im missing one of the kazes too but thats besides the point
I think ill skip all the LNY skins. Chang chun's skin though, 
also maint is coming and then they give me this shit
waste gold on food instead of pull
sigh
i wouldve made the honorable sacrifice, and skipped buying those 
btw, I didn't look up the next event
What are we expecting, if anyone can put it short?
limited rolls
lots of botes to 
hopefully this + 10k gold in merchant is enough
highly likely it will be more than enough
confirm not enough :x
which one?
Harem master
vanguard or main fleet waifu
I cant expect a vanguard waifu to be able to sortie main fleet ships properly eh?
also why the random inspection?

back line is graf while front would be roon
Amagi... epitome of a yamato nadeshiko
I mean not waifu ship
But my spirit ship is laffey because she wants to do nothing but sleep all day
And I feel that on a spiritual level
amagi and jintsuu
wait, wut
I'm so confused about the wording of that update notice
"The Crimson Echoes event will end immediately after HQ completes the 1/31 (PST) maintenance update. Please utilize the time that’s left to get your desired shipgirl or event items."
wdym event items 
is the event exchange going down as well?
yeah, both makinami and event shop are supposed to stay up till 6th
but now I'm not so sure anymore
Oof, crunch time boys.
If you're missing anything from CE that you want, act fast,'
zzzz
I still have bulins in the shop 
I dont want to lose 4 ship slots just before construction spree if I can help it
then use 4 bulins
win/win
i went through and LB a bunch of ships to reduce bulin count
I dont want to throw away coins either
and also makes them cost more oil when grinding affection 
long commissions sent out, pvp done, 55k points getto
all set for more farming after the maint 
and still got 5k oil in the event shop to rush spee
propably gonna take 4-6 hours as usual
they usually give a bigger number just in case something goes wrong
I'm surprised FGO didnt catch on to that
They should just announce 24h maintenances so they dont have to give anything for free in case delays 
we don't talk about that/them here
The upcoming maintenance is 8hrs?
Wow it will be 12am here when maintenance is over 
Should give akashi more catnip so maintenance will end faster
I mean, I can get adding so many ships to some extent, since they want to catch up to JP as soon as possible
all at the same time though
but I dont see it very smart to drop what, 14? 15 skins? all limited
it feels like throwing away money
sure, but most people won't spend that much in a single time period
they last 2 weeks
whole 2 weeks 
that's at least 1 paycheck
under normal circumstances I'd buy like 7-8 of those skins
but now, I might get 2, maybe 3 at most
not to mention WC's right around the corner
meaning even more skins
skins i know i'm buying
laffey
lmao idk after that
did ent get a skin
i think
idk
i've said it before
i'll keep saying it
we all know devs act like they don't exist
because it'd be better if they didn't
I'm getting Lexi for sure, after that I dunno
I'm still considering belfast
but I have to save up for the WC skins as well
eh, not sure how i like the l2d on it
the showcase on it was
bad
to say the least
yeah, that's why I'm still on the fence for it
I'll wait and see when it's fully out
the teaser made it look very uh...
like
the showcase was extremely cut up
bits and pieces were shown
of the same animation
with a different item
there was no smoothness to the body movements compared to some of the others
not sure if the teaser was just low framerate or what
if you look
they don't show the full animations
they literally cut from one to the next
cutting the animations wasn't that much of an issue for me
it was the animation in general
it feels oddly choppy
even before the cutting tho
the first animation feels out of synch
Again, could be just the teaser itself
I'll wait till it's out to decide
but as it stands, I'm 50-50 on it
who's the other l2d chinese boat, tai yuan?
when you compare the animations, hers feels nice and smooth
i never bought the eld one
oh well
i like her christmas skin anyways
not because the midriff obviously
i like the new laffey one
so now laffey has 2 l2d, jav has 2, z and aya still have 1
the new aya skin is pretty good
is there a list out there that isn't patch notes that has all the limited ships in it?
not that I know of one readily out there
also, ehh... no problems with aya skin's quality
it's just... another ayanami skin
if it didnt feel like she's getting a skin every month I'd propably feel much more hype for it
indeed
Actually Zee doesnt even have any skins outside of the teacher one doesn't she
yep
retro and sensei skin
like Laffey with bili and aya with nico
i'm calling we get Z with whoever
i really liked the bili laffey
it's shiny
like
idk how to describe it other than that
and i mean like, have you seen the hair
i just noticed how short they made her hair in the new l2d skin
jk
lmao
it goes under her arms
i thought it ended at her shoulder area
crisis averted
yeah I kinda like this hairstyle more than her usual
move over sandy 

atlanta good when
Laffey looks clean
I've been looking forward to this day for a long time
now that Lady Yat Sen's here and their retrofits are in, I can finally partake in the chinese meta
Because that's clearly the main meta 
Laffey gonna get a new year's skin for every new year out there
I just want to watch the IJN meta in PVP crash and burn 
mainte already started?
and the chinaboats are a good first step

tbh
it's 50-50
akaga is 100% easier to kill than wash/sodak
well, refreshing pvp into wadak enty turned into refreshing pvp into amagi +akaga/wadak 
Ping ning are already max on everything for me, so it's just a matter of maxing out Yat Sen and their retrofit skills
easier than if it was amagi + wash/sodak
yup, that's about half the fleets I usually end up fighting
copy-paste fleets with the only difference being the amount of oaths

this one took me 4 resets
side wife
implying there's a main wife
but main wife aint on fleet

do people still think sodak is a good main? it melts like hot butter.
on top of dealing pitiful damage
i mean what other ships can you name that shield main fleet ships
btw what trailer?
look in game news
I need to say two things.
- I thought Azur Lane was converting into a Frontwing VN
- Portland seems so out of place in a Chinese theme trailer
I can't check rn, so is it still up for purchase?
Because I think I missed it for some other set
i believe so yes
8h without AL 

that's one reason i like Saratoga over lexington
lexington is BORING AF compared to Saratoga
This is why Saratoga got a kai in the first place without Lex joining her
Thanks for the comm notifications al
Very useful
at least I still have OSRS while AL abandons us

really cute
so cool warspite
don't roll immediately when log in ... i always have bad luck with that ><
do events first :3
tai yuan is really cute
Little Yattys voice is great
and now I'm out of quick finishers so 
Yup
Now I need to figure out
Which skins I will throw as trash
And which I will buy
so many hermes
now comes the worst part
I need to know whose gonna be worth it right now
I can waste my time in light but. No thanks
and sitting through all the low timers that aren't going to be yat sen or chaser
Your looking for forty
wow SSR every 10rolls... so many belfaps and sandy
160 rolls. still missing chaser. got 12 sandys.
missing yat sen
You know the drill
got 2 chasers ... currently 90rolls
I got about 14 curacoas
and 5 curlews
1 of each of the rest, save for chaser and yat sen which are missing
gonna stop here. already went way over budget.
Tell me their skills aquan
curacoa has self-buff on fp and aa whenever she shoots down a plane
Curlew same deal
Odd
What are they trying to do here
nice trophy you got there boyo
I can’t have a sandy frontline
tanikaze somes home too XD
Mullany, evil, seems interesting
am trumatised :X
decreases burn dmg and duration, once per battle gives herself big evasion buff when she drops below 25% hp
I don’t see whats up with this aa focus
All of a sudden
Is this a hint of whats in store for later or what
could be
Chaser's skill is eh...
it's not good for EN 
1 skill gives you chance to proc another air strike, other one is whenever she uses airstrike, she reveals enemy subs and sends out asw planes
Sub warfare? No need for that when you can equip sonar and depth charge
If their going the way I think they are. Things might be challenging for me.
About time...
well since I can't do shit anyway because of the lack of finishers
might as well start working on some of those

sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy sandy
how much money do I have to pay never to have to touch light construction again 
Swear to god, it's always light construction that's giving me butt cancer
@smoky burrow any luck so far?
is yat sen build only?
seems so
yeh
light?
1.5%
light
everything's light
unless you want to pull graf
all limited elites are 1.5%, all limited rares are 3.5%
she's heavy
120 cubes

missing chaser and yat sen
i got everything with 85
meanwhile, 12+ san diegos and about 14 curacoas

This is why you should never have the same rate up on multiple ships 
3 ships with 3.5%, 14 curacoas, 5 curlews, 1 kimberly
my 150 dock is crying
I had to expand because of all the dupes
67 gems
starting to think it was pointless
I'm getting a fucking curacoa every 5 constructions at this point
Damn never lucky, got like 5 of not Chang Chun and Chaser TT
good luck

Sandy rate up 10%
cause that's what I'm at
nice roll aquan LOL
8 sandies and 3 belfasts
top
got a sandy
another 1:10.

what pisses me off the most right now is that I can't even do anything
cause I'm out of finishers
I have to sit here until they go 1 by 1, 2 at a time
😦

there is no justice
I'll put my house up for mortgage

so there's that 10 less medals for me
and give all the money to yostar
never again to do light construct
just fucking never again
I got a sandy from heavy
put me through the 2cube grind limited, whatever
just dont make me go into light anymore
I fucking hate light construction




@wintry sonnet tbh im not sure if i wanna try to get all or not
i got limited dock space anyway and feb end event coming up
honestly, I'm not even mad, I'm just annoyed
I want to roll everything away and be done with
but because of how fast light is on your finishers, I'm just stuck here now
yaaa
with 60 cubes left
did yet sen come with this update?
yes sharko
yep
owo
I have 95 cubes left.
Didn’t dip into my mail stash either.
So I feel like I won this morning.
well, I got oil cap
soon aurora will have her 2nd skill at lvl 10
so I might as well start working on spee

better than just sitting here looking at the timers
is luffy's l2d worth to get?


even tho i still prefer the non L2D new year one
new maids will be good in world12? XD
they're interesting, but... largely useless throughout chapters 7 to 9
since there's no planes there
time to get my flufbols to 100
laffey gonna get all of them new year skins
I can imagine devs looking at all possible calendars
Can't retrofit mine yet
and making a new year's skin for laffey
cause I'm stuck in construction

wait
yeah, no torp stat
my ping's 2 hrs away from 10/10 and ning's a couple more hours away from it
- they can equip DD guns
I intentionally didnt max my chinabotes so I could max em after I retro em for more pleasure
@brittle wind ikr same

FUCK YOU GAME
thought it was AA mount
wahhh megaaya?
inb4 lb gives them AA base +1
gonna bring her to 12 just like that
are you gonna go use 10+ radars
Spee's event is Ajax extravaganza
aw
changed to 100mm
rolled in heavy?
i mean where you get graf spee?
roll in heavy or do the quest
cuz she guaranteed
you need 60 clears of SP3, spread through 4 quests 10 10 20 20
not gonna do builds for a free ship
well thankfully she's not in light
she's in heavy
so you wont end up spooked by her 
Does it make a difference if she's in build or not?
There's like 11 ships to collect in this event
You're gonna end up doing that anyway
30 builds trying to get chang Chun and no luck
even SSRs get higher rate ups during events
well, she aint in the "right" build so doesnt matter
aquan do i save for port retro or do i try for more ships
mk
so if you want them, its a pretty straightforward choice
when i dont get ships and blow out all my cubes, i blame u
kakugo

cause the elite rate up is a scam
you did not just get all the remaining elites
I must resist buying Spee's skin...
dont resist
I got 1 st lewds, 1 yatsen, 2 taiwan and 1 ping hai dupes
Wallet: Have mercy on me, dude
im sorry for existing aquan ;-;
the only thing that keeps my sanity up
is that I've yet to get a dupe elite limited
which I'm sure is gonna happen eventually
why for the love of fk
are we limited to 2 construction timers going on at the same time

someone ran outta QFs
lemme buy extra construction slots, yostar
...
chaser and curacoa
the next q&a they do
I'm gonna send in a question
"Why is light construction literally hitler?"
it does?
they literally just added them in
@smoky burrow it does?
got chaser & yet sen in a 7 pull


I think during nep event someone did get told off for posting their neps
in general

well that doesnt count as trophy since its not the intro screen or construction screen
but if you keep posting the same thing trying to rub it in other people's face
I muted trophy room and now i can't find it
yeah i can count that as a trophy

sharko, below help in main chats
you prolly have the > arrow clicked next to "MAIN CHATS"
I might throw full 6 ship fleets into spee event
just to grind my oil down quicker
why not 81
actually
brb
i should've +10d a spare boiler
one of the event tasks is to literally throw your oil away

buy currys 
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand my game is apparently outdated
not sure if it counts buying food

might be just sortie spending

hmm, wiki says she was briefly refitted
