@stuck copper thing that kinda makes me delay levelling their skills is
they are already pretty dang strong
cosmic pier
so I just go level them weakling's skills 
stuck copper
You see them both having the same second skill
Meant that Lexy's won't trigger
If Sara is there
cosmic pier
mhh I dont mind that much
stuck copper
As her's just overwrites it
Which was why I delayed it
Since once it's max it would add an extra second or so
But anything before would just be overwrited

oh you mean the vanguard buff

Yeah

I usually just pop em in diff fleets

leaves me to be able to level other shit

2 are at like 180+

instead of increasing them's affections
getting to know new bitches > 3% extra stats

But r u gonna use them new bitches

till they get to 100
then I'll just find other ships to level
I'll take a long time before I 100 every shit I want then I can shuffle between ships Imma use

clyde was yelling at me
saying it was "explicit"
it's just because her hair is pink and she's the only rare ship i got

you'd be surprised
clyde would probably yell at me again anyways

i can't find the allure in Belfast tbh

I personally like her even if I'm not into large anti torp bulges

I prefer Belchan
toxic scroll
I like her art mainly
ornate mantle
Belfast is a top tier maid, has a great body, and now can accentuate that greatly. Her lines are what we expect of a head maid.
ornate mantle
There's plenty of things to love about Belfast.
zinc smelt
i just can't find anything worth noting in her aesthetics nor in her personality to like 
ornate mantle
Meh, everyone says the same shit when new skins come out. "It's sloppy"
toxic scroll
It is
ornate mantle
Or, "They messed up"
ornate mantle
Seems good to me.
ornate mantle
I like them all for the most part.
The only ones I'd say I'm apprehensive about buying are the lolis.
Since that's not my taste.
But they have excellent design.
toxic scroll
The only one(s) id say I truly dislike is probably Dutch and graf
The way the Dutch l2d moves is just
Unsettling to me
ornate mantle
I'm very pleased with Deutch and Graf L2D skins. Fits their personality and what you'd expect of their character type.
toxic scroll
It really just comes down to personal preference
zinc smelt
well that's basically the whole point of the game
it's not like that i blame any of you for not oathing both Kalk and Hobby
toxic scroll
I think for me it's just a lot of the position she's in
ornate mantle
I think personal preference does play a roll when choosing which girls to like, which skins to buy, etc. But, the designs objectively don't look bad at all. Sure, newer designs are gonna get better as the technique evolves, but by no means do these animations appear displeasing.
toxic scroll
I'd look at the Belfast one again
But
The video they posted for it
Was atrocious
ornate mantle
Which one?
zinc smelt
well for me personally the issue with L2d is not in any animation of any ship, but in general the concept of the girl moving constantly
i just can't stand it 
and ofc it's not limited to AL
the thing i love the most of the newest skins is when the expression changes with the quote
i find that lovely
zinc smelt
?
toxic scroll
With how they edited it
To show the animations
Just all the back and forth clips showing the same animations just with a different item in her hand
ornate mantle
That's a completely different argument than before, LOL. And, that's fine to prefer still images compared to L2D. No ones gonna say that's a shit opinion. But that's again using preference as an argument to say they have "problems" when they are phenomenal.
And yeah uru.
I like the Full animation more.
zinc smelt
well
toxic scroll
The video they posted for it
Was atrocious```
I was specifically talking about the video for thatpretty much every pc animation can be choppy or weird if stopped in mid animation
ornate mantle
Not you uru, lol.
Well, anyways. I've said what I wanted to say. I love all the animations for the most part. And that "for the most part" comes from the sheer fact that there are some girls I don't really care too much for getting the L2D. Mainly the Lolis.

I still need to get Lewdis so I can use her lewd one.

they were only russian ships for like
for two of them 2 years at max
looked at wrong time
9 years

much shorter than the amount of time they were china ships

Do the maids have a good base reload stat?

given how the rest of their stats are pretty mediocre I wouldnt say so
dont remember

Well Cleveland only has 164 so it seems good

Must be nice to enjoy 33% bonus dmg against most enemies

wonder if it'll get higher or lower if I change to atagogun

tranquil sequoia
best items for Enty??
cosmic pier
3 planes and 2 aux
stuck copper
Well there's nothing set in stone per say
It kind of varies
If you want faster deploy
Or higher damage
cosmic pier
who'd go faster deploy on enty when you can just go for damage just so you can fawn over E
stuck copper
Actually if you can beat them to Lucky E more often
It can be the difference between winning and losing
But yeah PvE wise it's not quite as needed
cosmic pier
dunno my enemy enties usually die long before they can launch
stuck copper
Mostly depends on the situation really
Like if you're against a full geared enty
And you're not full geared
You're gonna deploy slower
cosmic pier
i wouldn't personally go with speed
like, incase both sides lucky E, the slower enty has more chances of winning than the faster one
stuck copper
Which means the lucky E gets staggered
cosmic pier
like the one that went faster can get caught with the last planes of the other one and then go poof
stuck copper
Yeah
Timing is crucial against other Enty's
Anything else it doesn't matter too much
tranquil sequoia
then its damage over speed?
stuck copper
Generally
If you can explode them insta
It's much safer than speed
Speed is usually if you're trying to time with frontline skills and such
Like Helena
stuck copper
Well if they live long enough for you to use it more than once with them alive that is

the sucky part is that Ooshio's propably gonna end up being limited too
