The sensei skin just isn't enough
who was it that complained that Laffey had 11million (obviously an exaggeration) skins
they obviously never looked at ayanami
Not me. I thought she had an average amount with everyone else.
Cygnet is the devs' favorite ๐ค
Cygnet, a COMMON has more skins than 3/4s off the starters
I want a casual Nimi skin
Saratoga, the current AL poster ship (for CN/JP) only has 1 other skin and a retro
Like a plain skirt and Ironblood merch shirt and jacket
Make her look like a college student
I don't understand how devs would choose the skins though
don't look like they do it on a whim
We could ask Intern-kun
cygnet has more skins than 99% of ships lo
But would he tell us?
i still think that the artists choose the ship that gets a skin, and the devs just pay them
it literally makes the most sense
I mean, the order of which skins will be released first
are they planning this in advance or just randomly rolling a dice?
yep, Enty got more skins than most SSR
but Belfast, while equally popular, only have a skin aside from oath right now
lust has the same amount as ent
the ball skin isn't here on EN yet though
i don't see why that matters
the queen party I assume

think of it, I don't understand how devs will choose the skins to release before others
We could look at the EN only skins but it won't reflect our discussion about how the devs release these skins
we might tag Intern-kun here, but would he answer us?
:L
skins take a long time to make
it's not like the artist's can just
make them appear
they sorta do, but I believe it's the quality check and candidate process that would take longer
Whatever skin you release will be in the face of thousands of players and if it's got bad reviews then it'll reflect on the devs
devs pay artist, artist chooses ship and makes the skin, artist presents skin, devs give input, if accepted, it get's put into the game shortly after
you mean there are many artist to design a girl, but then only one will be choosen?
is what i believe is the process
no
each ship is tied to an artist
it's not a pool of artists for one ship
many ships to one artist
I'm saying they'd have to decide and discuss with the artists
also cus only 1 artist draws 1 ship iirc, you wouldn't want Oouso to make a skin for other ships other then concord

I worked with an artist before, and I gave her my set of requirement for the picture I need
but I don't know how it would be in company-scale
take maple for example
Art style for skins usually differ in most gacha games I've played

AL actually had the integrity to employ the same artists to maintain consistency
her?
or CEO-chan?
Oh yeah
looking around nervously to see if she is here in this Discord
Kaede has done enough shipgirl art that the devs even included Kaede army voice lines for all of them
"ใใใง" kaede
It's it the wiki
yep, it means Maple
which is why we use the english name here
we called them based on how they address themselves
saru is saru, but if "kaede" insists on calling her Maple or anything else, I will follow
may I ask whose line is it?
Laffey
could easily be a translation thing
there is no audio
so I can't hear to be sure
also, there is an unrecorded line for Enterprise whenever she is on the same fleet with Akagi/Kaga: "We all knew each other. Come on, let's go"
actually
Ashigara could use another skin
tbh
even if her new year skin is one of the cutest things ever
another Minneapolis skin would be nice too
i'll skip over Portland and Indy since we get their skins tomorrow
a Maya skin would be pretty nice
she's also neglected
obviously another ship
@dim crystal: on Hood
I need her to deal with pesky boss
Ashigara's story line seems... sweet
i even know someone that looks like ashigara
pretty good deal for me
maybe i'll do her storyline
I need level and affection
well, max un-oathed
I am now focusing on Sirius to get her story

a lot of botes got secretary quests
no u
I am OP? Your mom is OP
or you found another person with the mental capacity of a 5year old

both work
yooo
houshou finally
who's next on my list
9-2 it looks like
@stuck copper 
so, from what my rudimental Japanese and Google Translate, Ajax's story is like: she wants to learn cooking from Leander, she wears little clothes for combat efficiency, the Commander gets a cold so Ajax takes care of him and, for whatever reasons, she herself gets the cold, prompting the Commander to take care of her. She pulls him into her futon, telling that both of them will get cold together...
cassin and downes don't seem to be doing too bad in 9-2
but i might put phoenix in there as well
so when do we get tone
like pls
We have a 24h event coming in?
?
I saw some guys talking about it through the chat feed
the game auto switched the channels when I tried to look
and Tone doesn't even have stats
I bet Tone will be an elite benchwarmer but I'd still love to have her
Bunny Fleet pls
her art is quite dated though
it looks like a lot of the "original art" some ships have
you think they'll do to her what they did to Ryujou?
and what about ze cranes?
zui and shou respectively
much, much different
aw man, original Hiei had heterochromia
I doubt it is the same trouble with USN Big 7
maybe it wasn't well-received by fans so they opted for current version of shou-zui
Shoukaku looked like a granny
not that i know of
current Shou-Zui looks better
Much true
like a fairy or so
Speaking of Long Island
yes?
dm it
but she's a full package
i wanna see it
It's just her retro art
Isn't her kai art nice?
her retro art is nice
I mean she hid those behind her arms
except pit
i need to finish my Long island off as well
she's like level 8 7
that's degenerate
and no


It's all just a week of effort in the end
maybe once i start using her
Shouldn't be an issue. She's just a Ranger without the crit skill
don't compare her to ranger
i don't like ranger
saying that is gonna make me not like long island
I like Ranger, personally
Especially when she force restarts my phone

"15%" is apparently a big number
hmmm
if you have shouhou and long island
would shouhou buff long island who buffs shouhou who buffs long island again who buffs buffs shouhou?
Just don't launch both airstrikes at the same time
obviously non stacking
Oh
now that I think about it, that skill affects all other CV/L's except the skill user
Yeah, that should work
Helena or Aurora works a little better, but yeah those two are next in line
well helena works as a debuff on a timer
shouhou is any CV/L after her own airstrike
which should be all of them
given Shouhou's absurd reload
Shouhou
Shouhou
the gap won't be large thanks to the game's reload comp but it's big enough to work even if you just mash that airstrike button
it's enough
Hmm
Shouhou will launch airstrike before Enty
mashing it won't affect anything
does any other CV/L have the quick take-off skill apart from the two mentioned?
about 1-2 seconds
I want to see the extent of bombs and torps I can pelt in the screen
Langley has Quick Take-off?
whoops
my bad
Chaser
not langely
i was reading through and Langley is between Ranger and Bogue
and i mixed myself up
Looks like it's Bogue and her raspy voice then
I was hoping to avoid her...
Big bogue
It rings in my ears in an uncomfortable way
Like the VA is doing her job but I want to say she should look for a new job.
I-D-W da nya
that bad?
Yes. Bad enough that you have full rights to point and laugh as I raise her for this meme.
I'm doing it.
i mean, it's not terrible
i've heard worse
and man, her retro art would be nice if she wasn't so
lacking
It's terrible for me because it resonates badly in my ears
The only thing comparable for me right now is badly recorded voice lines
ooF
oof lmao
This is why i never care to go for 100% in AL
Having to level ships like bogue and shit
No thanks
Iโm kinda ready for event? Wish i had more coins still
ugh, why can't we be getting the Sims retrofit
everyone else seems to have at least 2k gems ready at all times
like I rarely see people here with less
I don't remember the last time I talked to a f2p player
I am having only 112 gem right now
and again, my salary was delayed once more
do i want to share?
Akashi must've bought a new mansion with the money everyone keeps giving her
along with a yacht
oof
those commissions ain't doing you any favors
@vital edge: my salary was supposed to be delivered on 5th this month, but due to financial issues, it was delayed until today (20th), however, the crisis haven't been averted, so I didn't know how can I hold out...
I got a 2 hour chip commission to pop, in 2 hours after another commission comes back
just gotta wait a buncha hours

I've been borrowing money from my relatives and my mother, but I don't think I can ask for more
It's hard to ask for favors like that
Did you think about moonlighting with part time work?
or does your sched not allow that?
I might ask to take some days off
Good luck, mate
Already been through that once and had to file a report to the local Labor Dept.
wouldn't be surprised 
there's a new elite in town
and elites always bamboozle me the hardest
I almost had 500 before Chaser appeared
then Chaser happened so I sunk to my last 4 cubes
Now I'm just over 100 cubes as of today
shira shira keeps coming up with them sweet food deals
cant resist

time to visit 7-2 with gold hunting intent for the first time ever i guess
on the + side since we're having a proper big event tomorrow, it means once you get out of construction, it's upwards of 2 weeks of not being bothered again

and VDIR point requirements are low as hecc too
True
none of that 40-50k nonsense
unless you really want them T3 bps
Which I already got too many of cause the game scammed me on purples 
i mean i ended wc building on day 1 anyways
3 weeks of no bothering

go for the 100k milestone 
wanna know what's funny
I had everyone but Grenville after 60 cubes
then it cost me 140 extra cubes just to get her
then from daily rolls, the only event ships I got
were 3 grenvilles
same but for sheffield

except I stopped doing event builds

cant agonize over dupes if you dont build em limiteds 
now imagine missing gren but waking up to seeing her in exchange for some randomass reason

I got everyone outside of matchless and musketeer mlbd now
still got KMS ships to deal with because CNY took all my time 
kms huh
and I wont get to affection farming them soon cause I still got chapter 11
I actually got all kms ships I wanna use mlb'd
but long way to 100 lul
oughta mind break the ones I already got at 100 too
good thing we're getting close to catching up to JP, we'll have plenty of time to affection farm then 

lel
maybe I can finally mlb all the ships I want
and stop needing bulins from every corner I see em at

all the PRAN ships still need bulins
lemme see
need 13 bulins for those
ez pz
hm
I got 2 8 hour commissions so can only see 2 daily comms lel
hmm wondering what ships to farm 7-2 with to stack some exp 
so far only one tac 2 for me
can't do anything for the next 5 hours tho while overnights work 
one taco?
share

lel
I guess the 150 daily chips aint that bad with all the rng chip commissions
with commissions you can potentially get up to 200
unlikely, but possible
you'd need to roll two tac 2s
so far best I got in a day was two tac 1s and one tac 2
3 and 1
yesterday the only one I had was tac 1 
with coins
couldn't even give me oil 

Same for me yesterday, also I screwed up on one of the daily. I forgot I removed some equipment on some BBs and did the shelling daily on auto. Only got 48 
I'm kinda surprised in a way
that there's not a single urgent
with a chance at chip
they could replace them with the launch ceremonies since they dont give you ship drops anyway 
Got the Max ๐ฉ
Weโll have the 2000 oil 120 gem deals in shop this event so im just gonna buy those and do 3 10hr comms today
All the coins


I missed the VDiR medal
so this is a good time for me to grab it
we have what
5 medals
nep medal doesn't count
4 medals without counting nep medal i think
sakura, eagles, ironblood, royal, sakura again (Crimson Echoes)
not in order
for the middle 3 at least
Was there a medal in CE?
yes
Oooooh, now i know why i couldn't remember it
That medal isn't a medal 
I have a corner with my "real medals" 
What is your IGN?
No, i don't have you 
Idk, some people changes their names when i add them
I am like "wtf is this guy?"
nah
my name always was
and will be
Urusai
I'm not letting anyone have it

It's mine
hisssssssssssssssss
not bad
i quite like my dorm
A lot of our decorations are the same lol
i just bought a few new items
time to spice things up
but seriously, i think i did pretty well with it

Oh god, i need to improve my dorm management skills
Even my IRL room looks terrible
I asked about the ykkz oath skin, i guess they want to launch it with a second oath skin
user ID pls
All i got told was "ittl come next time"
Well, i say that. But it is not that bad, it is just that i would like to have something more "clean" (better organized). 
No
She is the only one getting bullied

First we don't have the rerun version like all the other events had
Now they don't want to give us the oath skin
Nagato 
I am starting to think an EN dev hates Yukikaze ๐
Oh yea nagato has oath skin
we have to get the Ink-stained steel sakura event first
Oh, you were asking for characters we don't have yet too?
They already announced Kawakaze's oath skin too
(not officially, just in an IRL event)
And yes, next event will be Nagato
but we will have a lot of mini events in middle
so it will take almost 2 months 
This is all expeculation, but i haven't been wrong while expeculating yet ๐
aight
finished spicing my dorm up
ever so slightly
i might move my medals up to the second floor and add something there
idk though
I beat this nerd, i feel proud 
I equipped an AP gun in my Dork and she one-shotted Amagi 
So my last 3 days has been
2 chip comissions - 5 - 4
Not bad rates
If you think that guy is a nerd i dont want you to see my PvP fleet lol
I have uh
110 sirius, 110 Jintsuu, 105 Aurora, 110 amagi 105 kaga 105 akagi
All 200 affinity except for foxes
That's fine


Less of a nerd than you rei
I got two gold boxes only from daily raid today
But both of them had gold eq in it
Too bad it was my 11th 100mm and a triple 406
nice cranes
Pls donate red books...
Are they all married aki?
Well, at least you are not using Enty 
I bought 3 more rings for this event too for crane sisters and ykkz
Enty is shit imo in PvP
She dies before airstrike
Exactly
Im actually gonna make an attempt to use crane sisters a fair bit
Once their 100
I just hope 6 multis will be enough for ykkz and shoukaku
I dont have coins for more
I hate doing the whole grind coins into doing one multi only during events
I like getting it done day one
Its kinda fun to mass build so
Yap

And i get to level them up asap

Skills and xp
Loli rabbit boi is back

I was debating whaling coins if i get unlucky but
Its never worth it
The conversion rate is trash
GochiUsa collab when 
Winters crown memed me
I got 4 sirius first 5 multis
Then took another 130 cubes for vicky

Every build event
I've spent 60 or less cubes
I'm assuming this event will be the same
Especially since I already have the non rerun ships

Im usually rly lucky too
Got amagi on literally first build, graf first multi
I need everything from this event tho
I got like
10 of her like
10 Grenvilles
YAโLL LYIN
I might not do any AL today
I've already finished everything I need
Other than pop in to refresh comms
Dailies done
All daily missions other than collect coins and do tactical training 3 times
Is it
I'm thinking of comms then
But still, I'm waiting on the tactical training one
They're still running from the last books
Also nice dorm
Thanks, and oh it finally got through then
I only recently seen the red dot pop up
Yours reminds me of all those idle cafe games I played before
It was a compliment
You're like those high lvl players that make the place look like an expensive variety store
I was legit looking for popups to click when I first saw it
The place literally had everything, so I can see why

so
Undeserved love smh
just means her artist likes her
Devs could've paid a different artist for a skin for a ship that actually needs it

big tits, shy personality, eats and eats without getting fat
I personally think it looks really bad

HMS will eventually dumb down to Hot Maid Ships
Except QE
She isn't allowed to be a maid
Only the Maids boss
QE needs anothet skin
Her one is
Er
A skin
leander coulda used a maid skin more
inb4 QE maid skin anyway
like only HMS CL that aint a maid or sth
Even fortune
Could've used it more
a whole buncha ships I forgot
Those are Leander's non-maid friends



cant


just staying safe 
that smooth thinkpitz emote

If I'm needed, ping me, not gonna be paying attention to discord
@glacial snow I uninstalled wows, and am on a trip due to new years holidays n shit so dont got a single way of playing online games on my laptop anyways
maybe after I return and you're up to play like everyday


you're gonna have to teach me to do stuff tho cause I kept rushing in with battleships and then got torp'd to heck


most fun thing in the game was dodging aircraft torpedo bombers
@verbal obsidian oi dont ignore me

the strongest gun
in case you want to hit 4 different targets
gurl
dont go to class with a heckin flower in your mouth
i like that one
Kirishima is the otome sort of hot
the kind that would princess carry shikikan
and that's fine by me
@cosmic pier i was sleeping on the train 


already down to hoarding 
More like I have no idea who can do shit in w11
almost anyone at 105
I mean I want to auto
if you want the technically useful stuff idk go for amagi tirpitz chinamemes etc
I'm making slow tests
amagi + chinamemes cleared all of w11
on auto
but u should play for waifus
(unless those are your waifus)
all my waifus happen to be the same ships that are regarded as the best and are everyone and their grandma's waifus @verbal obsidian

time to do some AL chores during lunch
yeah im trying to not to do the same xd super busy today

no u
That's part of the Journey.

Like, I want to develop my Terror, Erebus, and Glowworm right now.
I lost my motivation to train my girls since level 110
I mean, getting everyone to 110 is a little much.
But I'll get them to level 100 since that's simple enough as it is.
Maybe I am getting too old already
ojiisan
Honestly, getting girls to 110 isn't too difficult either.
More costly than getting them to 100, but it shouldn't be impossible.
It's only like, 900k EXP.
hmmmmm
getting them to 110 is not really THAT hard
not even 120
just play the game
like really
๐ค
"just get exp"
I wouldnt think I would get like 80 level 100s

I only have around 50 level 100s atm.
Well some became Level 110 and 105.
So I guess less Level 100s now.

JUST PEPEGA
honestly tho, if it werent the fact that the girls are waifus
i know i wouldnt be playing this game

@verbal obsidian is that you, shirou?
i bet you also believe people die if they're killed

I mean sure, I don't think I'd play very many mobile games if it weren't for the waifus.
speaking of shirou
~~ i saw heavens feel part 2 in theatres the other day~~
choose your shipfu destiny
Fuck, I wanted to go to that, but it's OT.
I could have gone, but I hadn't watched part 1 yet, so I'm looking to see them before part 3 comes out and go to tht.
FREKIN HOOD BOOD

im on a trip for a while
cant be as active as i wish
lel no
