until hood decides she wants to see bismark again not scuttle herself
that's gotta be the lowest i've gotten a ships morale to




How many resets? 
what reset
The Chaser skill that actually works 
uhhh wasnt looking
she got like a 40k which was like triple the amount the rest got tho
guess she got it in a few times

RNG was with her that battle
wanted to max the second skill for the memes but had to be considerate of mah red books
barely got 6 left
who
i know literally nothing about the new ships
because none of them had my interest
Chaser and Mullany are nice though. Also meidos 
damn
clyde got triggered at my spee and deutsch
3 t3 books left 
dem damages pretty much at same level lel
tfw I still don't have Spee 
i mean neither do i
i don't know how people rushed 60 sp3 runs in the first day or two
i'd have [server friendly words] myself if i did
it's so boring
all grinding is boring tho 
at least it's not
@tough burrow just do heavy builds 
yeah do 60 runs of this boring, slow, bad exp map that takes 5 trash kills before the boss to get a trash ship
even in the dorm
it's like 400-500 exp
with no MvP or flagship bonus
that's really bad exp
400-500 is pretty normal for low level map tho 
But dats pretty low
It's really low, I used it to level Yeet Sen from Lv 1
That's because event maps aren't used for leveling
They're used for events
Shocking I know
then was i doing it wrong

@tough burrow only? 
some other ships as well, but YS is a focus
i levelled chaser and yeetsen and new maidos together there 
lemme see what level were they when i was done with gettinf spee

dorm exp was included tho
i don't think i'll be using yeet sen in the trash yat sen
i don't like the china boats
No one said you have to though
"but muh PvE meta" is what i hear a lot
about the china boats
like bruh if you need a meta to do PvE, what's wrong with your fleet comps
I've seen people clear W12
mmmh i got chaser to 72 from level 4 in sp3 and maidos and yeetsen from 16 to like 67 @tough burrow
With 3 man comps
I'll probably trash Chaser anyway 
You said PvE meta
Well if people can clear with 3 man comps
Clearly you don't need them
So what difference does it make
The answer is it doesn't
i was talking about the people who say that they need it
that if they have fleets that bad
Who gives a fuck about what others say though

Instead of just using things they actually enjoy
i mean i wasn't arguing anything
yes no one here said anything about it
me bringing up the "china boat PvE meta" was me talking about some people who say they need that
not anyone in here
But again why would you even listen to the opinion of meta players
i don't
about the china boats
like bruh if you need a meta to do PvE, what's wrong with your fleet comps```
Most don't use meta btw to do PvE because of that btw
Most that use meta use it because it's meta
Being the strongest is one of the main reasons people use them
Same reason IJN is everywhere in PvP for example
people enjoy playing meta, because it's interesting for some to get the biggers numbers and theorycraft, not because they can't clear 

Look at it the other way - why would they use BAD ships? Not like gameplay is much different depending on your ships

The only reason most genuinely use bad ships is if A
They like them
Or B
Meme comps
Possibly C
well, excluding waifu reasons of course
To see what fun things they can come up with by testing
Sometimes things are sleeper op afterall
And just need the right comp to shine
isnt following meta using ships other people say? how do you happen to exactly theorycraft if you're using what some random joe told you to use and the fact that given others have already gone that path, the "bigger damage" pretty much just gonna come from manual shenanigans or crit rate 
I don't believe 90% of playerbase is capable of coming up with interesting meme strats 
I was being a snowflake back in visitors and using vampy on farming d3 when everyone was using phoenix 
I cant live without doing something not everyone else doing
gotta feed the snowflake
isnt following meta using ships other people say? not necessarily, people use same ships because they're the strongest and some respond to those more popular ships by their own counter strats, that what forms competitive meta. It's meta because it's good, not because it's popular 
Idea of meta in PvE is completely idiotic tho
but still
some like to minmax
Yeah meta is basically because it's the best of the best
Hence why people use them
I mean if the IJN 60% use rate for PvP
Hasn't proven it already
It's stupidly strong
PvP it's just a pain in the ass because of how random it can be so I prefer to just use whats best there.
Im just sick of seeing the same old shit on like 95% of defense fleets
like bitch pls Imma beat you anyways so atleast put some diversity there

aint seen that in ages
shitty paint but like
this is usually what I see
on 4 enemies every refresh
Im not even complaining bout them being difficult or something
I use PvP only to level ships while getting some renown, so I don't even touch fleets like these
I can't wait for Nagato to come out so more people thinks they should use Akaga on defense.
some already do thanks to amagi
So much faster than slogging through FW fleets
except I get those like every refresh
barely some easier ones lel
thing is, if it was one of em more 'serious' games, I wouldnt mind people just putting metaships some random joe told em to use that much, but I just see it as a waifu game, and have seen for myself that even 'bad' waifus can handle stuff pretty far, so its like, meh, whatever
when it comes down to it it doesnt concern me that much what people use anyways
when people call my ships trash just cuz they aint metaships, I gotta get back at em a bit 
I mean with HMS the only two meta ships I plan to use
Is QE and belfast
Belfast cause maido
QE because Queen power
I didn't plan on using ashigara this much
I just kinda went "eh, she's already in the fleet, might as well leave her"
Shud use chaser
Bogue
no that would be a 10k gold drain

jk it wouldnt cuz I'd need to get another and her to 70
taco sisters pretty much last ssrs to get their mlbs
I'm not a foot fetishist so I'd like to be rid of her 
theres always the yukata skin so we avoid it all together

Character quest, need level 100
Want to get it out of my log and collect those blueprints 
Dont those also need 100 affection
Which from getting to level 100 that's almost guaranteed but
Yeah, 100 affection, then mlb, then lvl 100
Lol It is quite miserable but she's my last one. Did all the others.
I haven't done a single one
Shiranui wasn't much fun either
ah rite the quest
Unless you count the long island one
cant be bothered to do quests for characters I dont wanna use rn 
and my ocd doesnt trigger on quest log
mmmh guess I should replace akashi with breastal so she can get some affection too 
Breastal 

I keep forgetting vestal is a uss
*pairs vestal with solo PoW *
Hah, that would mean I'd have to actually use PoW
Nevermind
I'm slowly lvling my nun cosplay portland
Vestal is just Portland alter
The Portland who isn't obsessed with indy
But everyone, especially Enterprise
Even more light construction.. I'm so happy..
Id rather she was tbh, then she would have rate up so I can get her quickly and be done with it.
Took me months to get Concord..
If it wasnt right b4 winters crown id agree with u
I mean
its not like the rateups matter much
you can have a bit of a rateup and still need to dish out em cubes
hmm, breastal and titpitz are the only level 100s I got without 100 affec
gottaget to em

Oof
Titpitz.. or Tirptitz?
tittitz?


I popped 2 purins on em week ago to kill some purins, but decided to mlb with dupes 
except gotta get her to 70 first ;-;
Rip all the effort
I mean, both are 10 in my book, so I'm not arguing 
I'm pretty sure my akashi and vestal both have their skills at 10
Akashi is at 10 for skill 1 and 8/3/4 for skill 2
Close enough
Its only close wen theyre all 10
gold repair?
oh i see 
if akashi didn't have her special aux item
i'd be able to use it
free aux plates
i guess
Free disappointment
eh
it gave me an aux plate
better than nothing
nothing can make me saltier in this game
than when i got a crane
from a T5 box

it's worth it :3

turns out 46 oil cost is pretty nice at burning oil 
maidos 95 affec
the lack of mvp makes em go at the same rate 
45/60 ... 1 day left to get 15 clears of SP3 ><
you have 7 hours left from now
not until 7 feb 23:59? :x
I have like 20-40 clears left?
Got pretty lazy this mini event
also bc AC7 came out lol
oh yeah tomorrow 
mb
it most likely will be over in like a buncha hours
my AL gaming time is cut short by another mobage
I have like, 45 runs left.
But I'm down to keep going.
Just finished my 17th run.
Only realistically need to do this like 43 more times which should be relatively simple.
So after doing the math.
I need to do 1 run every 6 minutes.
If I wanna finish in 4 hours.
Takes about 40 seconds per node.
So with my curren setup i have 3 min per full run.
Sorry, 4 min.
Slightly off.
Indeed.
Actually doing homework while I do it.
Yeah.
I did a ton of homework already though.
So I'm considering stopping for the day.
I did everything that'due tomorrow already.
Which is why I'm considering procrastinating for the Graf Spee.
Hmmmmmmmm.
Yeah.
I'll go for speed first, and then I'll switch to a more oil efficient set-up after the 50th run.
BY then it'll take around 50 seconds per run, but I'll be doing it shouldn't be too bad.
What,
It ends in 11 hours.
Sorry.
I can't fucking count.
around 6 hours.
the amount of people putting it off for last day is devastating
i mean if you aren't that concerned for getting ship
might as well spread it out throughout the duration
Oof the procrastination
there's no reason to rush for a ship you arent interested in
There is a reason to rush if u want that sweet 100%
tomorrow
Rip
imo, things like that is basically just spam
At least I wasn't talking about boobs
good
ahhhh 5 runs left with 30mins left?
It's 7:27 am for me

"2/7, 11:59 P.M. (PST)" @sand robin
Which would mean tomorrow
As it's the 7th where I am now
Correct
Let me just check
No wait
I think maint is another week
14th is the update from the posts



oof

angel ghost for owarida
@stuck copper imma do escort cargo with enty & laffey only and reset until i get 2 owarida where all 1600lb crit
I'm having such a "You win so hard you lose" moment
spamming 8-2 to get abukuma dupes
0 abukuma after 3k+ oil
1 ikazuchi 


changed back to default for a while
her special touch on default is pretty nicer than on the schoolgirl skin
which is just liek "oi bitch yer making me angeri"
zzzzz...
of all the possible lower-level commissions
the shitty blue plates one

I've seen it once, like when I was lv10 or something
I never expected anybody to see that any earlier than lv30
it's very rare for this to happen, but unfortunately possible
since your hq level doesn't lock away lower level commisions
๐ฆ
what sucks is that it had to be the plates of all things
Definitely
I wish I had that luck when I was farming 8-2
ikr
the cv aux that gives planes more hp
the second you go into a map and dont want to farm the specific rare, she becomes common
is it good?
meanwhile, an actual common I'm trying to get, nu pizdec
tempted to go into 8-4 and see if I'm gonna get spammed with mayas 
uh, you mean the fuel tank, sharko?
it's better than a purple steam cata statwise, other than that it's mostly for PVP

abukuma raining for me 
@lone sinew I mean, pvp you generally take a gold cata and a steam tank
pve 2 gold steam cats
F

@lone sinew 
good thing a t3 destroyer blueprint was in the exchange today
now I can get the skill for laffey


laffey was the only one missing

I had bad luck with 6-1 hard mode drops rip
should i switch aya for sandy instead?
when ayaya kai came out I didn't even have a lvl 100 ship yet

F
I started in the end of dyed in red
I got aya in my pvp fleet just so she can proc amagi's faster first barrage proc
my sandy and ayaya have the same guns (twin 100mm)

after indys and portland skills are max I will lvl laffey and poi skills
your mom
Lol
ey don't bully javelin
Once I get around to finishing off the current idea
I'll finish those two
Jav and Z23 are both lvl 54 atm
friend: >sends fu shun pic
I jokingly called him a lucksack cuz I aint done the beast adventure yet
he's like: oh you dont have her yet? so sad, shoulda been more active

then I asked him to explain me how his being active only got him lusty at level 102


and through exchange at that 
@lone sinew I wouldnt even need to reset to beat that

Actually
I have a friend who made it to the top 1 spot in PvP by lv90
He only got Lusty at lv93

I think Lusty is cursed for a select few
my lusty is lvl 92 too lazy to lvl her atm
I meant commander lvl xD
spee was just released she doesn't count 
I still don't have jintsuu, aurora an so on rip
at least I have ssrs except the cranes and avrora
got every drop ship cept jintsun
did like maybe 20 runs
then just went to levelling ships 
will return for her butt later
I did 20 for maya and got her 20 for poi and got her 
and 80ish for akaga and got 2 kagas and 1 akagi 
con...grats?
I'm bored rip
Gooood morning gamers let's get this Graf
I know some slackers still haven't finished their 60 yet
i didnt finish 60 today

trying to adjust their exp since deutsch was left behind

What am I looking at
ChaseRNG
@dreamy turtle random screens sent in the chat dedtime

maidos need like 2.5 more affection for 100
chaser 9 more
cuz she was out for the a good while when they were kinda low level for 8-4 and thus were getting carried by lusty's skill 
still pretty good cuz her airstrikes can bag her mvp rather often
just wanna point out that the fact I spent 8k in 8-2 and 8-4 and couldn't get a single abukuma, a common rarity ship, is complete bullfuckery

Sounds like azurlane to me..
if I get that abukuma dupe, I'm using a bulin for the rest, fuck this
I wanted to save up 4 for yat sen, but I'm not touching world 8 ever again
this is garbage
york york exeter exeter keep coming
I got 2 ikazuchis, buncha elites and rares

i thought it was a settled fact that commons were rarest
problem is, I got every single common up the ass
R's are bullshit
heck I got a bunch of richmonds on 8-4
but no abukumas
leading me to believe they purposely made her drop rate on world 8 lower than others
I got 10000000 abukumas in D3 last event I just was like "fuck it if she's so persistent I'll just retro her"

it doesnt add up to spend 8k oil and not get a single specific common-rarity ship
I was just getting sick of seeing her face
the % just doesnt add up
Fuck Akitsuki, fuck Inazuma, and fuck Ikazuchi.
fuck every drop ship 
Also special fuck you to Concord.
I know I'd fuck all of em

oh well I guess I used one of the 2 yorks to limit break her
gotta put her on the shelf for the far far away retro
quietly hides lvl 100 York
you say that like I care

you can keep her
proceeds to steal maki's york from the hideout
Gimmie that Terror
Who else is getting a Valentine's skin?
only erebus far as I know
unless if they add more
devs be like:
dev 1: hmmm shall we give ere an oath skin?
dev 2: nah lets make a valents skin so we can charge poor @cosmic pier twice
dev 3: neato idea

Im busy thinking if I wanna take a chocolate from ere or terror 
The answer is always Takao
no its not


Lol
prob gonna grab another later and mlb just for the sake of having her there
and have her collect dust
but I needed dock space so she had to go 
OH, I just realised
I haven't LB any of the Nep SSR
oh
they finally fixed it so moving between ships on formation screen is set to vanguard -> backline order
since I said taco sisters are the only ssrs I dont have mlbd
and not the order in which they were added in
Good quality of life fix cause that was a minor pain.
oh that
Had to restart many runs cause my leveling girl decided she wanted to be in the tank spot
That damage 
That emote 
just cropped her face 
weee another exeter



Feels bad when you forget to put a ship you're leveling in the dorm
F
wait does bluestacks support controller?
cus it said gamepad connected when i started it
Yes they can


Only 10 more runs for Spee
ez
indeed


I guess I have to go back to 6-1 hell soon
chapter 7 hard mode when?
I prefer 5-1 tbh. Not really seen great evidence higher world increases the drop rate much. Getting some gold 127mm every now and then is nice.
I have enough of them I need sg radars

don't have it either
I have 0 ^^
oh
I just retro'd chinalolis and still got 24 croozer bp
nice
then again I still got their skills to get
I have 28 or something like that
mmh lemme check again how many should I pop
guess I'll be dropping to 20
after their skills
still gotta get jintsun and retro her cuz pseudo ssr tho 
I need 32 so I can retro china lolis and jintsuu
I know people who would be ready to fight you over those rates 
maybe i shouldnt have popped 2 purins on her idk
i know i dont care bout those people

I have this thing were I dont care bout people getting salty over my pulls nor I get salty over what people pull that I dont have and they try rubbinit in my face 
Whatโs the limit of GBP?
Limit?
I mean the only term I know


hmm maybe I should take maya out on some sorties so she can hit 70
so I can get rid of the dupes 
instead of just waiting on dorm



her kai just doesn't look like her base art at all
york has the same problem but not has much as her younger sister

Naturally. More cleavage = Better art.
I have to agree
Just like the character
That deutsch Live2d isn't that great
oi maki
Also why do people even hate Deut
Trash skin with a trash character

It's fitting
I have my reasons to not like dutch
Her personality is one

"Mary Sues are generally presumed to be idealized self-inserts rather than true characters"
She's not even a mary sue
At all
I like bitchy tsunderes like Nelson and Honolulu but Deutschland is too far on the bitch side. Also I don't like her design at all.
Too much bitch not enough cute
Which I don't like either
"A character may be judged Mary Sue if she is competent in too many areas, is physically attractive, and/or is viewed as admirable by other sympathetic characters."
Admirable
Your using the literal Mary sue
But she's not even meant to be admirable
Not everything is cut and clean like that
Competent in too many areas <
I mean if we're gonna get a mary sue
If any character is one
It's Belfast
Nothing to do with it
It's literally confirmed in her own data that she never fails anything
That's a literal mary sue
Perfect to the nth degree
She is literally a stereotypical maid
Which is literally that
What you just described
Except none of the other maids are mary sues
Which counter points what you just said
Excuse me for not putting the word stereotypical on the first part
Poor Edinburgh...
Point here is a mary sue is basically a perfect character without flaw like gary stu
And Dutch is a Mary Sue sadist
Perfect at being a sadist
I like deutschland rip not as much as spee but I like her
But she's not though
but dc said no after 200 tires
Perfect sadists are way better at it
i want zuikaku to sit on me with her plump thighs




deutsch was a ship I've wanted to get since the moment I started playing the game 
one look at her art and I was sold

I like her art mostly the skin from the event shop
mhm that one
I usually switch between skins from ships so it doesnt get too stale
but aint changed hers ever 
I've changed akaga's a shitton between oath and default
my reason was an atago fanart + belfap
Yes!!!
Not enough love for sweet Essex
mine is yuudachi and akaga and yama
^
but I only got hyuuga from dyed in red before the event ended since I started in the last 3 days of that event
I got none because I wasn't there for said event
Im dead inside so "come let onee san hug you with her huge tiddies" stuff like atago dont pull me in that much


We don't hate Neptune yet
I wouldn't hate her anyway
deutsch and spee are like the perfect pair of sisters for me
Two ends of the spectrum
deutsch is wild and kinda an asshole
spee is cute and calming and all that shit

they cover a huge area
Theres no middle point though
this is like the only form of atago I can handle
cuz her bigass tiddies aint in my face
When we get her

Also
well the kimono thingie kinda does do a good job of showing em off
Just a curious question but
I just dont like it when they're that big 
Rip
non maid skins on maids are non acceptable anyways 
she sure as fuck doesnt act like one from those 2 or three lines I read
Yeah that's why I was confused when people said it
Cause those sound like maid lines
Oh don't worry
if I could buy that ring pack I'd oath deutsch and sp33
maybe I'll go on an impulse and somehow end up buying it lel
who knows
but prob not
gotta stick to skins over oath portraits

I'm pretty sure
They wouldn't directly mention 3rd
Without giving us the 2nd at some point
I mean, thats cuz spee is the third irl too rite
wonder why three is there before 2 tho
Maybe they didn't know how to design Scheer
I mean I imagine it's kind of like the reason Hibiki isn't in yet
Albeit slightly different
just do an "i have an apple I have a pen" shit with spee and deutsch to get scheer 
who the fuck names their ship verniy
Russians
mfw I cant even type it out
Lol

You can get them both to max soon
