Hi VPN, I am your mother

[wintry sonnet]

Dont think people would go as far as to VPN just to troll a discord channel

[tough burrow]

Discord should ban by VPN afaik

[wintry sonnet]

you'd need to be really dedicated for that

[tough burrow]

He is for some reason

[stuck copper]

well humans are crazy, you know

[tough burrow]

Well, that guy

[stuck copper]

we humans can do the unthinkable

[wintry sonnet]

maybe he's actually tsun and wants to tell you he loves you rest

but doesnt know how to express it

[glacial snow]

Was he really trolling though or was he legit crying

[stuck copper]

tsundere in real life = trash

[wintry sonnet]

so he tries hard to make senpai notice him

[tough burrow]

That previous guy faked Canuck confirming Nagoot after WC. Got muted for it. And posted it on reddit like "oh yea, Nagoot confirmed"

[wintry sonnet]

Nagoot?

[stuck copper]

Nagato?

[wintry sonnet]

nani

[tough burrow]

Nagato

[wintry sonnet]

oh

[cosmic pier]

nagayto

[glacial snow]

Nagoot

[stuck copper]

Nagamon

[glacial snow]

[cosmic pier]

someone inspect elemented something GT said

[tough burrow]

It was Canuck, not GT, but yea

[glacial snow]

Nagato was confirmed long ago just we dont know when

[cosmic pier]

rite canuck

[wintry sonnet]

I mean, if the storyline in WC is to go by, sounds like Nagato event'd be next, but

[stuck copper]

we got Crimson Echoes far before Nagato, our timeline is fcked

[glacial snow]

Nah

[wintry sonnet]

since one of the last cutscenes the sirens mention travelling to the land of sakura trees

[glacial snow]

We still have more events to go through so dont compare JP/CN to global

[wintry sonnet]

but I doubt the devs thought it through that hard

I'm not comparing JP/CN

I'm comparing what's going on in story

[glacial snow]

All I'm asking is for the time for each event to prepare that's considered a leak

[toxic scroll]

CE is obviously a prequal to the ink-stained steel Sakura event

[wintry sonnet]

I mean, CE is technically a prequel to all the events no?

[tough burrow]

yea

[wintry sonnet]

since it technically takes place before "WW 2" timeline

[toxic scroll]

I mean technically yes

[wintry sonnet]

you know, that would be kinda cool

if we had an event showing us the origin of shipgirls

[glacial snow]

GO BACK TO THE BC ERA

Before crist

[wintry sonnet]

Inb4 Moses used shipgirls to save all the animals

Beyblade-style

or was it Noah

I dont remember bible stuff

[stuck copper]

dinosaur shipgirls

[glacial snow]

May the holy ship spirit be with thee

[wintry sonnet]

And then Moses said to the Siren "Let my shipgirls go"

[glacial snow]

I wanna see this game being played on the new foldable phones

[tough burrow]

GO BACK TO THE BC ERA I thought you meant "Battlecruiser era"

[toxic scroll]

We need wooden ships

Now

[wintry sonnet]

But we have Mikasa

[toxic scroll]

who?

[wintry sonnet]

oh sorry, I meant to say Misaka

[toxic scroll]

who?

[wintry sonnet]

plz

[glacial snow]

Isnt she a bull?

Would you pay 5k for any ship girl you want on your luxury bags?

[wintry sonnet]

gdi Taihou, stop stalking me

[glacial snow]

Shes everywhere like sandy doggo

Cant escape

[verbal obsidian]

oof i had to teach the new girl at work did i miss any degen chatting

[glacial snow]

Is she into azur lane?

If not fire her

[verbal obsidian]

this is a no weeb office

[glacial snow]

Every office is a weeb office

[verbal obsidian]

[glacial snow]

Lowkey

[stuck copper]

undercover

deep inside, they want to play AL

[verbal obsidian]

they caught me playing once

nvr again

[glacial snow]

Put an azur lane ship girls name on your car plates

[verbal obsidian]

[lone sinew]

QE + Uni + random carrier can give sirius up to 44% torp, reload & FP

well

44% reload

29% FP & Torp

[clear gate]

Her torp stat is pretty low though, so getting an extra 29% torp isn't that great

[cosmic pier]

gotta stack the % anyways

[verbal obsidian]

another retro announcement

i cant keep up

[cosmic pier]

just try harder

[verbal obsidian]

[stuck copper]

meh... just as i'm about to finish my last ones, we get another.

fine

[verbal obsidian]

ganbaro

[cosmic pier]

its ok they're bound to end sometime

then you

[stuck copper]

and of course it's DD. because why not.

[cosmic pier]

'll just look at your BPs

and be like

gimme sth to pop these on

kappa

[wintry sonnet]

oh come the fuck on

another DD?

I just got enough to get all the current DDs, now I have to go back to 6-1 again

where the hell did all the carrier retros go

[cosmic pier]

Im just chilling here waiting for Nicholas' retro

[wintry sonnet]

where's sara, where's rabbit division

[verbal obsidian]

yeah where are the bunnies!

hiryuu retro

[wintry sonnet]

heck where's Ise/Hyuuga

[verbal obsidian]

[stuck copper]

probably too good. gotta get rid of the ones nobody wants first lmao

[wintry sonnet]

it's not even a matter of wanting, I just want to get rid of the carrier/bb blueprints instead of constantly having to grind x-1s for dd stuff

[slow drum]

is matsukaze a log in reward or how to get her?

[verbal obsidian]

log in

[wintry sonnet]

yea, she was this month's log in

might be added permanently next month

not sure if it's a given that every login reward is auto-added next month

[slow drum]

I hope hatakaze will get no retro any time soon since I scrapped her

[wintry sonnet]

hatakaze was the CE destro no?

[slow drum]

yup

[wintry sonnet]

if there's 1 ship out of that event I'd expect a retrofit of it'd propably be naka

since her sisters both have retrofits

[slow drum]

same thing with hata

[wintry sonnet]

oh, right. Hatakaze is kamikaze class

[slow drum]

I guess I just have to wait for the rerun to get her again if she gets a kai

I have enough gold bps to do 6 of them

[cosmic pier]

like gold DDs are the problem here

[slow drum]

they are until you're done with starter retroes so...

I had bad luck with rng on the 6-1 hell so it took me some time to get done with them

now 6-2 hell is my home

[cosmic pier]

I had all starters retro'd the moment ayakai was out

almost got enough to retro a spare javelin for fuck knows why and also nicholas when she comes around

[slow drum]

when the starter kais came out I was like 1-2 week or so into the game

[verbal obsidian]

jealous

[slow drum]

when I get dork I will go back to 7-4 rip

and fiji

[cosmic pier]

woa rando

traitor

[slow drum]

I always need purins

used 4 today on my kaga bb

[cosmic pier]

my bb kaga ate 0 purins

[slow drum]

I have 2 purins left but idk who to mlb tirpitz or sodak?

[cosmic pier]

aint bothered with normal mode past 2 events

3*ing Ds gonna eat some resources tho

[slow drum]

there is also enty who needs 2 more purins but enty can burn in hell

[cosmic pier]

retire enty

[slow drum]

why even bother with 3* the d and c maps

[verbal obsidian]

[cosmic pier]

cuz I can

[slow drum]

I use her only for hard mode anyways and her skill is now max

[cosmic pier]

and A and B are boring

[verbal obsidian]

since we had to clear d2 and d3 5 times anyway for 100%

[slow drum]

yea but there is no need on getting 3* on them since danger lvl goes down regardless

[verbal obsidian]

a full clear was only like 2-3 ships more

ocd xd

[cosmic pier]

I already have a few of the ship kills done on D maps

on HM*

I dont on NM

and I'd have to bother put together some low cost shit

like miss me with that gay shit I'll just brute force the Ds

[slow drum]

I also did that ended up with 3k oil

[cosmic pier]

I dont mind dropping bit low on oil

all it needs to solve is just taking playing easy for a day

oil shoots back up

[slow drum]

I think I will try bb kaga out on 10-4 so I use her instead of the better kaga

[cosmic pier]

someone was trying to convince me bb kaga is better than cv kaga

cuz "its 10% more proc chance than big 7"

very convincing

[slow drum]

I will get my bb kaga to lvl 100 so I can use her as a filler ship for ex when I can't bring cv kaga

[cosmic pier]

lel

[slow drum]

that's the only use she has

[stuck copper]

Well seems I've come across a bug

[verbal obsidian]

[stuck copper]

Her sprite has frozen

[crisp palm]

reset app?

[stuck copper]

Well I can easily stop it doing it

But the fact it isn't a one time deal

And consistently happens

[crisp palm]

mine work fine

[stuck copper]

No I'm saying like

It doesn't always happen

But it happens often enough to warrant mentioning it

[crisp palm]

hmm

[stuck copper]

She even slides around without moving too

It also happens on the in game maps too

[crisp palm]

no comment since mine never fuck up

[stuck copper]

Well as you've probably noticed

[crisp palm]

go #bug-reports i suppose

[stuck copper]

I've been using her for like

2-4 days straight

So it's definitely occurred a few times

[crisp palm]

like i said no comment

[cosmic pier]

[lone sinew]

[stuck copper]

[dreamy turtle]

[verbal obsidian]

[toxic scroll]

am i a joke to you?

game?

[stuck copper]

Yes

Btw Phantom

[crisp palm]

lucky i don't need either of those

got enough gear from them

[stuck copper]

Replicated it in maps

That's some fabulous moonwalking

[crisp palm]

[stuck copper]

Just slide everywhere

[toxic scroll]

she just wants to slide into QEs DMs

[stuck copper]

Like if I go into a map then go into a fight with her

It resets?

Weirdly enough

Very strange indeed

[crisp palm]

i think you should just reinstall the game

might be corrupt file

[stuck copper]

Hmm

It only happens with that character though

And I haven't tried it on her normal skin

Did you have the skin when using her?

[toxic scroll]

i'm gonna see if i can replicate it

[stuck copper]

Thanks

Would be much appreciated

[crisp palm]

see no problem on my end

[stuck copper]

Well it doesn't happen like all the time

I'll play for like most of the day

Then like out of nowhere

It just happens

Then it's gone after a fight

[crisp palm]

ask jesus for more info zzz

[stuck copper]

I think over the past 3-4 days it's probably happened a handful of times

[crisp palm]

maybe it is a sign for you to ditch her and use someone else?

[stuck copper]

Yikes

[toxic scroll]

hmmmm

i've tried a handfull of things

to see if maybe doing something triggered it

[gilded mural]

who is march log in reward?

[toxic scroll]

maybe it's purely random

[stuck copper]

Well from my knowledge Uru

Seems to be random

Cause as mentioned I played for a good few days straight

Then out of nowhere it'll trigger

Do a fight

Then reset

[toxic scroll]

hmmmm

[stuck copper]

So I can't confirm too easily if it's just me losing my mind

[toxic scroll]

i'm looking in the trello

not seeing anything about it

[stuck copper]

Well event started

[toxic scroll]

well

[stuck copper]

22nd if I recall right?

[toxic scroll]

maybe i'm in the wrong one

[stuck copper]

21st hmm

[crisp palm]

first thing you need to do is to either find the cause or find a sure way to replicate the bug

[toxic scroll]

yeah i looked through all the trello and didn't see anything about that issue

[stuck copper]

That's the problem

[crisp palm]

if not then it is pretty much impossible to fix

[stuck copper]

It seems completely random when it occurs

[crisp palm]

you can't fix a problem if you can't replicate it

[stuck copper]

No I can replicate it

[crisp palm]

so no wonder we have nothing in #known-bugs

[stuck copper]

Just not on command

[crisp palm]

[stuck copper]

Hence my issue

Cause it's not the first time the bug has occurred

[crisp palm]

also it could just be an issue of your file might be corrupted

if you can replicate it on another person game

[stuck copper]

Hmm

[crisp palm]

then it might be a system problem

[stuck copper]

Would need someone who owns her though

And is willing to spend hours using her

[toxic scroll]

i'll do a lot of B3 runs with her in a while

[crisp palm]

<been using her from morning till now

0 problem

[toxic scroll]

to see if i can get anything

[stuck copper]

Hmm

[cosmic pier]

@tough burrow boi

Well using LDPlayer has stumped me lol

[stuck copper]

Hello there, I am totally not a suspicious degen, you can trust me!

[dense wing]

today I learned about discord cache and the first image I revealed

its azur lane related so I am unsure about the confusion

it is just funny to me because of the suspicion of what image is hiding in the file, and it was

[verbal obsidian]

its so cute

[oblique mantle]

We used to have that as an emote

[verbal obsidian]

we still do

[ornate mantle]

This can be the amazon point channel.

Also, I'm finally back up to 100k.

Coins.

[verbal obsidian]

[oblique mantle]

I stick to my usual emotes. Never found a use for pointer

[stuck copper]

Me looking at someone posting gacha shop status, lamenting/boasting their luck

Me: meh, I will grind the entire shops, I care not about luck

[ornate mantle]

I want all the shit in the shop.

I never really buy Weapon skins.

Might change when i have 400k + Gold Coins to throw down the drain though.

[verbal obsidian]

[stuck copper]

lmao

[stuck copper]

there are some untranslated Zui doujins

because she has... assets

[ornate mantle]

I have no doubt about that.

I know what I'm doing tonight.

[verbal obsidian]

[stuck copper]

even if KC Zuikaku has small assets, everything else about her should be fine. however, AL Zuikaku doesn't have such... defect

Btw, while Zuikaku has her own story, Enterprise does not

[verbal obsidian]

[ornate mantle]

I want Enty to have more love.

Like a L2D skin.

[stuck copper]

she will, eventually

[ornate mantle]

I know.

But I don't want eventually.

I want now.

[stuck copper]

as the poster girl of EN server, she definitely will

[ornate mantle]

I want now damn it.

[stuck copper]

well... spare the devs will ya

[ornate mantle]

I am holding it in great expectation.

[stuck copper]

they have been overworking a lot

unless... EN server is not to lewd Enterprise

[ornate mantle]

Oh? My lovely devs overworking.

Please let my wallet comfort you.

[stuck copper]

not all of those money will go to devs

[ornate mantle]

No. But some is.

[stuck copper]

they will be shared 70/30 between Manjuu/Yongshi

[ornate mantle]

Devs gotta get paid.

[stuck copper]

and Yongshi is responsible for developing game programming...

[ornate mantle]

I love you AL devs.

[stuck copper]

Well, nothing we can do except waiting

I know.

@tough burrow how long did you help with bug reports before you became a baby mod again

[tough burrow]

3 month I think

[toxic scroll]

that's a lot of time to hear some stupid not bug bug reports

and it still happens

like the hardmode danger level thing

[lone sinew]

[tough burrow]

Not like anyone forced me to do it

[toxic scroll]

ye

my favorite bug is probably still this

[lone sinew]

i regret getting the T5 royal box instead of hood gun from core shop

[toxic scroll]

crane?

[lone sinew]

i got the quad HE gun

[toxic scroll]

[lone sinew]

i have 3 of those already

i just want one more banana torp

[toxic scroll]

those are a myth

[lone sinew]

is the 381mm gun actually good? cus iirc ppl told me no guns were worth it atm

[toxic scroll]

even though the damage increase is basically minimal

in the big picture

just more useless overkill

[lone sinew]

is duke's skill bugged for other ppl

[stuck copper]

Did Essex miss the photoshoot? Where is my waifu

[lone sinew]

i'm thinking up to the 3, right, and up

the sub 70 still haunts me

69 is the best I've gotten

and i just got all 3 dorm items in the same roll

Hello there, I am totally not a suspicious degen, you can trust me!

[toxic scroll]

[stuck copper]

You should believe me bro

[toxic scroll]

so most ships looks kind of upset/confused/anger when you pick them up

not Victorious

happy as can be

[cosmic pier]

@stuck copper

[stuck copper]

@toxic scroll: Takao's default form look indiferent

Illustrious smiles at you, and so do Enty and Belfast

[cosmic pier]

i love how she's like

[toxic scroll]

very few ships look legitimately happy

when you pick them up

they usually look happy when you poke them

but there are still some who dont

[stuck copper]

not Lexington in her new skin

she will go full yandere and "ara ara, who dared use his dirty hand to touch me?"

[toxic scroll]

obviously because she wants you to wait for the "private show"

[stuck copper]

I wasn't able to oath her

next month with allowance, I will do it

I like how my urgents for today

Are literally all large scale oil

All 4 of them

[toxic scroll]

not mine

[stuck copper]

I only have two

and two in normal commissions

Like legit

[toxic scroll]

i wish

time to play some 2hu until reset

and get angry

and then forget about AL lmao

[cosmic pier]

I had 2 drills and 2 cubes

👏

[toxic scroll]

who's the

"drills are useless" guy

and why so many staff online rn

jeez

[stuck copper]

I run short of drills now

Will need time to replenish them.

[flat palm]

Time to save up for a 203 for my atago wife

And 1 more hewd gun for nagato

[stuck copper]

I went for Hood gun first

[flat palm]

I did too

[stuck copper]

and then the dildo

[flat palm]

Hood gun > 203 > hood gun > oxytorp

Is my plan

[cosmic pier]

I went for hood gun but I never use hood

just gonna use it on others

[flat palm]

Mine will be on amagi and nagato

[cosmic pier]

next Im prob gonna go grab some shells

then oxytorp or some shit

why cant monitors use shells

double oxytorp maymays lel

[flat palm]

It was because phase 4 shop was bugged

I couldn’t buy every reward

[cosmic pier]

same

ranny is a man of culture as well

[stuck copper]

After today, Hood gun will be mine

Unless Yostar wants me to fck up

[stuck copper]

I feel so weird...

[cosmic pier]

no Z23 sensei skin

what blasphemy

[stuck copper]

I mean... look at those two Kagas

One I married, one I didn't

Maybe I would marry BB Kaga to complete the cycle

[cosmic pier]

I thought of doing athat then I was like "I've already married kaga, why'd I marry her again"

specially the ver im never ever gonna use

[stuck copper]

it feels like time travelling

[wintry sonnet]

hello darkness my old friend

[cosmic pier]

except I got a 7 hour 'cept 6 hour

[wintry sonnet]

times are tuff

[cosmic pier]

this single eldridge fighting off my akaga and clevedad

fuck

cleve just ate 4 torps to the face but atleast now she stopped activating rainbow right before the airstrikes

[wintry sonnet]

I'm starting to wonder if Nuke is just a username or a suggestion

[cosmic pier]

lol

[wintry sonnet]

oh shit

[cosmic pier]

kaga had almost no hp left

nice cranes

[wintry sonnet]

This never happens

I never get anything more than 20% on quint box

and it's all purples

[cosmic pier]

expected more?

[wintry sonnet]

expected after 30 royal boxes now that I'll get something

even a bamboozle gold

oh, it's essex event on jp

[cosmic pier]

that means we must be getting essex event soon

[stuck copper]

Thoughts on Essex anyone?

Protect her

[cosmic pier]

I'd essex Essex

waitwat

no opinion for now

she looks nice, but I have no idea about her personality so I'll halt my judgement

time to see what failure my daily build shall be

25 min time eh

I still need more Purple Gun plates

[stuck copper]

yes, because 799 < 800

[wintry sonnet]

oh no, whole 1 day

however will I live with that fact

[cosmic pier]

you're so behind now

kappa

I've already used that gun to clear out w10!

I bet you cant beat that!

[wintry sonnet]

weird flex but ok

[cosmic pier]

see you couldnt

[wintry sonnet]

Because I'm so good I didnt even need the gun to clear it

[cosmic pier]

damn

it's fine if you need ez modo tho

nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[cosmic pier]

can I stop joking yet

[wintry sonnet]

no

[cosmic pier]

dam

[wintry sonnet]

you have to pay for your transgression

you'll have to keep joking for the rest of the day

[cosmic pier]

fuck

would I be finally able to beat 1-1 with that gun

[wintry sonnet]

gun alone won't be enough

you need the strongest plane

[cosmic pier]

sad

I dont have enough points for that yet

mfw 2 dorks like 2 days ago and no more since

should I grab the oxytorp too

maybe I can beat it with double oxytorp

rodney #6 in the past 24 hours

so many medals

maaaan

with dork levelling

the oil cost has increased from 38 to 41

its becoming a bit

[toxic scroll]

oil is even more dime a dozen than sandy

I can play for an hour or two straight with my oil burning fleets and i still won't run out

and it'll be back to where i started the next day

might be just me though

i see a lot of "I'm low/out of oil"

hmm

technically

Isn't Indianapolis the most dangerous ship

based purely on her CG

[flat palm]

Yeah that hideous face is enough to spook me

Indy confirmed op

[toxic scroll]

wow

that was a personal attack

I'm gonna have Indy drop her nuke on you

[flat palm]

Portland and indy

[toxic scroll]

also i just noticed we have the censored version of Indy's CG

the nuke symbol is switched

[flat palm]

They should censor her face next

[flat palm]

[toxic scroll]

I'll censor your face

[flat palm]

Do it u wont

[toxic scroll]

that emote

it's angryQueen

but she looks more

sad

[flat palm]

She looks like she just found shikikan spending more time with belfast than her

[toxic scroll]

or warspite

speaking of

I wonder when we'll get the Warspite retro

[flat palm]

Considering how op she is, i doubt until w12

Sandy prob comes with w11

[toxic scroll]

well

Spites skill is kinda unreliable if the target moves

[flat palm]

Warspite kinda ruined the pvp meta on jp and cn lmao

like, hard

[toxic scroll]

idk about the retro though

haven't looked at it

[flat palm]

She 1shots anything in enemy backline

like, legit just 1-2shot

[toxic scroll]

hmmmm

that's fine

i really like her retrofit art

[flat palm]

It's nice

but id much rather have sandy early on to make w11 and 12 not so miserable

[stuck copper]

You say about Spite ruining meta

But Amagi just made the IJN prominent meta worse

So if anything it's good that HMS has finally shattered it

IJN has been strongest for far too long

[toxic scroll]

i mean

to be fair

they were the only other navy that actually mattered

until we came in

but yeah

IJN ship skills are pretty busted

Amagi's skill is kinda weird though

it's a semi watered down QE skill by the fact it needs 4 or more IJN ships to work

but it's stronger in all aspects

(for her salvo CD cut at least)

[median vapor]

[toxic scroll]

does he not understand the reason for the skill

targeting the farthest ship

[wintry sonnet]

He's right you know

that skill is shit outside of PVP

[toxic scroll]

i'm fine if the shell speed is increased

[wintry sonnet]

making it at the very least prioritise shipgirls would make it so much better

[toxic scroll]

but leave the farthest ship part

eh

as long as it hits something

imagine an event where the "final" boss wasn't a ship girl

but a superweapon like mentioned in this one

[wintry sonnet]

your point?

it'd still make the skill more useful

fact of the matter is that unlike shelling it doesnt slow-mo the enemies so 99/100 times it always falls short

or worse, instead of hitting a target that actually matters, it just targets some suicide bote behind it

and misses anyway because of the former point

having a good skill for PVP is one thing, but making the skill work better for PVE is a non-issue

[toxic scroll]

warspite is considered a "PvP" ship

which is dumb imo

[wintry sonnet]

Gee, I wonder why

it's almost like that skill's only good against stationary target in a mode where you can change your placement to affect who gets hit

and even then you still can't make it target the middle target until the furthest one's dead

[toxic scroll]

aside that she's still not a bad BB even without the skill

[wintry sonnet]

not being bad doesnt mean being good

she could've been so much better in the meantime

[toxic scroll]

"oh, this skill doesn't work in *whatever*"

"bad ship"

[wintry sonnet]

sure, stat wise she's solid

and with QE she's even more than solid on that front

[toxic scroll]

that's not quoting anyone in specific, just some dumb argument i've heard

[wintry sonnet]

doesnt change the fact she has a skill that is effectively non-existant outside of a specific game mode

look at any other "PVP" ships

Eldridge is a pvp ship, she's still useful in PVE due to the 10 sec invul

SoDak's a pvp ship, she's still useful for her double damage, dmg absorbtion and synergy with wash

[toxic scroll]

i've never seen eld called a "pvp" ship

but i won't argue your point

since she is useful regardless

[wintry sonnet]

at least with her retrofit, you can ignore her yolo shot

in favor of the increased barrage dmg on first shot + target prioritization

[stuck copper]

SoDak isn't meant to be low on health on PvE

SoDak's offensive skill, although inconsistent, still be able to deal a lot of damage among all non-barrage ship, barring North Carolina

[toxic scroll]

you can't argue warspite having one of the highest (if not the highest) firepower (after retrofit i think)

because she's very high up there

[wintry sonnet]

hence why I said she's solid stat-wise

[stuck copper]

high as her fp is, it cannot be compared to NoCaro

with other BB's skill that increase their FP, Warspite will lag behind

like, Fusou?

[toxic scroll]

warspite is still higher

at level 100(or 120, idk)

[stuck copper]

There's only 1 bote

Has higher damage output in terms of raw power

And that's Massachusetts at max power firing at max range

Who can easily get over 1000+ FP worth of raw damage

maybe no one, as for now

NoCaro can get up to 600

Yeah NC atm

Is a strong pick

In terms of FP though

Sorry but PoW is actually higher

Has she can use gear to make it scale higher

By stacking more damage

[toxic scroll]

also remember that NoCal skill is only base stat and gear

[stuck copper]

Yeah

[toxic scroll]

people like to forget that

[stuck copper]

PoW scales

After

All your other stats

Since it triggers in combat

PoW capped at 522

387 at level 100 max 100 affection

in a fleet with 4 Union ship + QE, she will gain 35% extra FP, and that is 387 * 1.35 = 522

You're also miscalculating there

Gear

Gear gives FP

She scales harder the more FP based gear you give her

While if NC wanted to do that

She'd have to gimp her damage output

As she can't stack AA and FP together

Without gimping one

PoW can stack more and more FP

And gain even more as a result

NC capped at 495.4

Even more so when people get shells

at level 100 max affection 100

Which will make that gap even wider

(without gear)

Doing without gear

Is irrelevant

[flat palm]

pow is kinda weird, shes hms but gets buffed by eagle union

[stuck copper]

When you're comparing a bote

[flat palm]

how does that make sense

[stuck copper]

That SCALES from gear

well, maybe that's why PoW is tier 0 with QE and 4 Union ships

[wintry sonnet]

imma let you all finish, but stats alone does not a good ship make

[stuck copper]

While that is true

The reason NC does more damage than PoW

Is actually not gear

It's because PoW can't crit for shit

per your statement, is PoW's luck that low?

She has one of the lowest lucks

Among BB's

Meaning crit damage is rare

well, still consistent

but requires a specific fleet setup

That's the issue with just base stats

which I don't think people would go for it

One has to compare all variables

I mean Jean Bart

Is a monster

Why you may ask

Because of her skills

Her base chance to crit discounting skills

Is horrendous

if there is QE, it is better to field an entire HMS fleet

[flat palm]

Jean bart with shells

Rip sirens

[stuck copper]

Let me just find it

NC 81 luck

PoW

19

That's why

holy shiet

that's high

Yeah PoW is really low for a BB

Not only NC will evade things better, she is also more consistent in dealing damage

Like here

Jean Bart

19 luck

Yet T0

Because her skills

Make up for her lack of luck

Hence why raw stats don't necessarily mean better

I mean Massachusetts is considered about T2

And she has the highest FP worth of damage

For a main gun on a BB

Since she gains 15% more FP for her first skill

Then 30% damage increase if hit at max range

[flat palm]

I saw a video of jean bart 1hitting a siren consistently everytime it spawned

[cosmic pier]

[flat palm]

Shits busted

[stuck copper]

Jean Bart

Is stupid for two reasons

Manually aimed / first salvo

• Crit monster

• Shells

= GG no re

Not to mention

She loses only 1 shell compared to other BB's

Even though she only has 2 salvos

Due to quad gun

[flat palm]

She has her own gun iirc?

from the event

[stuck copper]

Yeah

[toxic scroll]

lets not forget the most important factor here though

which ship do you like to use more

[stuck copper]

yes, 380 quad

[flat palm]

It's nice, dont need to use up a good gun on her

[stuck copper]

Yeah it's the BiS for her

Just raw power

Crits like a machine

[flat palm]

Shes like Jintsuu for backline but on steroids

lmao

[stuck copper]

Pretty much

that event, there are three must-have ships: Massachusetts, Jean Bart and Dunkerque

maybe ready your cubes

Here we go

NC 81 / Wash 89 / Sodak 76

For luck

So you can see why all 3 are strong

[cosmic pier]

cant wait to laugh my butt off at people with 9 hood builds and 0 jan bert

[stuck copper]

Lol

[flat palm]

I dont like the other ssr in that event

at all

[cosmic pier]

stats 🚮

[flat palm]

hope i don't get her before jb

[stuck copper]

I mean I'll be honest

I have an idea for Massa

Because like Jean she too is unique for main gun

Albeit in a different way

[flat palm]

Which aux shell are you even supposed to use if your bb also needs sg radar

[stuck copper]

White normally

[flat palm]

I think design wise, my fav ships in the game are Shoukaku, Jean bart and Victorious

[stuck copper]

55 FP / 15 ACC

[flat palm]

So im hyped for jb

[stuck copper]

+25% more crit damage

Since generally

Most BB's like Wash and shit

Have high inherent chance to crit

Making them crit harder

And hit more accurately

[flat palm]

Wait, whats Hood's luck at

[stuck copper]

Is generally considered better

Give me a sec then

38

Hood doesn't need luck

all she needs is her barrage

Fyi

which, I think, doesn't depend on luck

[flat palm]

I guess its not too bad

[stuck copper]

Luck also determines whether you actually land shots

Luck + Accuracy together

[flat palm]

Barrages can crit can't they?

[stuck copper]

Think so

I don't know

Don't tend to pay much attention to them

I don't think barrage depends on luck

as much as it doesn't depends on FP, maybe

it has its own value

"Attacker Hit Rate = 0.1 + Attacker Acc. / (Attacker Acc + Defender Eva. +2) + (Attacker Luck - Defender Luck + level difference) *0.001 - extra eva rate"

This is how hitting an opponent is determined

Hence why high luck is good not just for crits

But ensuring you don't miss

[flat palm]

[cosmic pier]

luck is good for ensuring you roll the ship you want

[stuck copper]

That too lol

it is a different story lmao

at the beginning of this event, I thought my luck was F

but now I can boast that I had everything I need

I just need to keep farming to get Dork

[cosmic pier]

i dont believe in luck

[stuck copper]

Then I'm done really

[cosmic pier]

[stuck copper]

Almost 100 Vicky

96 Sirius

when it comes to randomization, it is purely luck, albeit in a rigged way

[flat palm]

lol

i finished every event shop and i only got 1 duke drop

so rip my mlb duke for 1-2 weeks

[stuck copper]

I had enough Bulin for that purpose

[flat palm]

40k pts and 1 duke lol

I used all my bulins on Atago sirius and vicky assuming id get better drops

but nope

[stuck copper]

Sirius and Vicky can wait

for me

so, only one question remained:

WHERE. THE. FUCK. ARE. YOU. AURORA?

[wintry sonnet]

in Sirius's secretary questline

[toxic scroll]

in light build

[stuck copper]

fckkkk

more than a thousand cubes and no Aurora

[flat palm]

FK

i was doing Hood oath and i accidentally scrolled up my iphone screen

cause of the stupid arrow

[stuck copper]

you can re-watch it

[flat palm]

IT'S NOT THE SAME

[stuck copper]

And thats how Belchan came alive

[toxic scroll]

hey lets don't

[flat palm]

But ya

I finally oathed all my favourite shipfus

Was so many lol

but i finally got them all to 100 affinity

[toxic scroll]

I'm gonna oath ALL of the Sakura Empire

[stuck copper]

I am currently traning Cleveland to reach 200 affinity

[flat palm]

I oathed uhh

[stuck copper]

it isn't over after oath

there is a road of 100 affinity ahead

[flat palm]

Jintsuu, amagi, akagi, kaga, aurora, sirius, atago, vicky, belfast, hood, lusty, prinz, ayanami, st louis and honolulu

All those double ring deals we got helped alot lol

[stuck copper]

I don't like St. Louis and Honolulu, due to the way the artist tried to emphasize their breasts

but... because St. Louis is Helena's sister, that would be an exception

[flat palm]

I love their personalities/voice lines alot personally

I'm a sucker for tsunderes

[stuck copper]

Did I hear Aurora?

[flat palm]

[stuck copper]

listening to St. Louis and Honolulu is like listening to a more lewd version of Rias Gremory, and a less tsundere version of Yusa Emi

[flat palm]

lol

Kind of?

[stuck copper]

fyi, Yoko Hikasa, who voiced St. Louis and Lulu also voices Rias Gremory and Yusa Emi

[flat palm]

Atago voice actor does my favourite anime character too

[stuck copper]

Honestly, my biggest annoyance is my determination to keep these 3 sandy dupes vs dock space

[stuck copper]

I have plenty of space in mine

use your wallet to expand your dockyard then

[flat palm]

I already bought x3 dock space for this event

[toxic scroll]

you realize sandy retro is like a year away

if not more

[stuck copper]

Actually

I doubt that

still have > 50 spare slots

[flat palm]

I dont think itd be that long

W11 is fast approaching i think

and sandy after

[stuck copper]

@stuck copper

Almost there

level isn't a big matter

the affection, however, is

[toxic scroll]

the sandy retro event was over a year after AL launched in JP/CN

[stuck copper]

You're kind of forgetting

[flat palm]

I don't think that has too much to say for en
