if there's a next shipfu Imma actually burn cubes for on normal build and not limited

it'll be abercrombs

not monty

but how many cubes will you kill for hatsu

[wintry sonnet]

joke's on you, I already wasted 90 cubes

when she was limited

[verbal obsidian]

same

[cosmic pier]

🍪

30 cubes

2 hatsus

[wintry sonnet]

got kamikaze after 30 during that

[cosmic pier]

1 kami

[wintry sonnet]

because that's how rate up works

[cosmic pier]

rateups are a lie

cant go above 50%

[wintry sonnet]

good thing I didnt do the weekly construct yet

will do last limited build tomorrow and then just do the remainder in light

[cosmic pier]

still gotta level quite a buncha shit to 100 from these

and oh right porkland was dropped at 99 time to 100 her

gotta take care of the tacos, yorketer, myoukou nachi etc

too many

[stuck copper]

Agano is a lie, i have lost my remaining sanity

[verbal obsidian]

tfw i dont have agano, columbia, or sendai

[stuck copper]

I can't wait, i have 36 hours 26 mins left

[wintry sonnet]

zzzz

fkin discord doesnt let me upload images

I'm dragging images over it and it gives me the error sign

[cosmic pier]

I wanna retro furrytaco and kako too but muh cruiser BPs

only abu got lucky on that department

[stuck copper]

They will add next month's login girl, then PR ships, then a millon ships in middle, so it would take me months to reach 100% again. This is my last "easy and fast" chance REEEE

[cosmic pier]

[wintry sonnet]

there, had to find the folder manually

[cosmic pier]

ewwww

deutsch l2d

gotta get em to 105

[wintry sonnet]

I keep forgetting to push Wichita into 100 affection

things have been rough on her since Minnie's release

you need US cruisers for who exactly, Saint Louis?

[cosmic pier]

CAs are quite nice when I feel bit tired of goin around fast with DDs and wanna take it a bit slower n stuff

but they still get the short end of the stick

[wintry sonnet]

it's actually the opposite

CAs were shit for us because of the lvl cap

they actually outclass CLs post lvl 100

[cosmic pier]

I mean I never cared for em being "shit" cause evasion n stats n blahblah

if I wanted to use em I did

[wintry sonnet]

doesn't change the fact they are stronger than ever

also, yea, that new armor breaking mechanic is eugh

works only with AP guns, doesnt count AP skills and only works against heavy armor

[cosmic pier]

doesnt change the fact that that changes exactly nothing on the scale of how much Imma use em

[wintry sonnet]

so basically you'll never use it

[cosmic pier]

lol

pass

[wintry sonnet]

I dont even get this logic

AP guns for battleships already get flak for being absolutely useless

why even buff them with something that will only slightly work 0.5% of the time

if even

I dont remember the last time we even fought a heavy armor opponent

[cosmic pier]

Nagato and Mutsu like every other node?

[wintry sonnet]

I'm talking boss

[cosmic pier]

phew just got roadblocked on both sides on d3 and only could open up 1 before boss spawn cause I goofed earlier

managed to pick the correct route

also idk its been DD/CL since w9

before that not even worth remembering

[wintry sonnet]

even chapter 12 is just medium and light armors

[cosmic pier]

1300 more ema till I can grab the oxytorp

[wintry sonnet]

actually chapter 8 didnt have any heavy armor bosses either

[cosmic pier]

I coulda had it if I didnt pick 410mm first

[wintry sonnet]

chapter 7, no heavies

O, found it

chapter 6-2 and 6-3

heavy armor

LEL j/k

it's Kongou class

they're mediums

seriously, what even is this supposed to be for

[ornate mantle]

I love a modestly dressed lusty.

[verbal obsidian]

lusty is just a classy gal

[wintry sonnet]

ok nvm

found it

the last heavy armor boss we had to fight in the story chapters

was

[ornate mantle]

A lot of these skins are must haves.

[wintry sonnet]

...

in tutorial

[cosmic pier]

biscuit

[ornate mantle]

[wintry sonnet]

there's not a single heavy armored boss for any map of any chapter

[ornate mantle]

That’s depressing.

No love for the BB squads.

[wintry sonnet]

so again, what's the point of having a skill that doesnt even work most of the time

for trash mobs?

[ornate mantle]

It might work in the future.

[wintry sonnet]

if you need a 2nd shelling to kill trash mobs you already doing it wrong

[ornate mantle]

Trash mobs can usually get taken out by a standard Phoenix BB set up.

[cosmic pier]

pvp

[wintry sonnet]

time to use medium armored backline then

oh wait everyone already does

cause amagi is medium

[ornate mantle]

What skill y’all talking about.

[wintry sonnet]

akagi kaga are medium

literally everyone in the metafleet for PVP is medium or lower

the new AP mechanic in patch notes azu

[cosmic pier]

its ok some people are gonna use nagato a year or three later

[ornate mantle]

Oh really, gonna check it out.

Didn’t know patch notes were out. So exciting.

[stuck copper]

too bad there's barely anything good in it

[wintry sonnet]

you know, I really tried

I did

I wanted to try and defend that AP mechanic on the basis that maybe it won't be that bad

I'll admit now that I was wrong

it was already dubious in the original tweet

and they're STILL using "subsequent shelling" when talking about it

so it further leads me to believe that it in fact doesnt increase airstike damage

[ornate mantle]

So basically, the argument is that Heavy Armoured ships are gonna also have a chance for extra damage in following barrages done to them, but there are no heavy armored units for it to really be relevant.

[wintry sonnet]

it also only works with AP guns but not AP skills

and only on battleships

[ornate mantle]

So only battle ships using AP guns can cause the Armour break.

[wintry sonnet]

and only against heavy armor enemies

and seemingly only shelling damage

[ornate mantle]

Quite restrictive... yeah, we just might not have the units then for it to be relevant yet.

[stuck copper]

the problem is

even if we get them

[wintry sonnet]

if you dont have any heavy enemies to use it against, it doesn't matter if any ship can utilize it anyway

[stuck copper]

AP is still going to be useless outside of those units

[wintry sonnet]

the only heavies you fight are in trash fleets

[ornate mantle]

I meant to add that we are lacking in both.

But I’m also in class lol, bear with me.

[wintry sonnet]

I mean, even if it was just AP guns and AP skills didnt count

it could still work

if it worked against all enemy types

and also amplified damage from all sources

but the way its worded and the way they're selling it?

yeah, it's not going to win any favors

although...

now I wonder

if it doesnt count AP from skills

does it mean it won't count for Massachusetts

[stuck copper]

armor break should just be standard for AP, like fire is standard for HE.

[wintry sonnet]

yeah

[stuck copper]

would allow for some nice synergy

[ornate mantle]

That’d be massive damage.

[wintry sonnet]

I'm starting to think the reason they changed it is, Ugh...

[ornate mantle]

DOT + extra damage.

[wintry sonnet]

historical accuracy

[stuck copper]

yeah, but you could design it in a way that only adds damage to non-AP bullets

[wintry sonnet]

like "It will overpenetrate medium and light armor so it wont do the same damage"

[stuck copper]

so people would have to mix things up

[ornate mantle]

C14 might have a BB final boss

[stuck copper]

make it a threshold as well. don't break on every single hit

[verbal obsidian]

[ornate mantle]

Maybe scaling damage up.

With every subsequent armour break +% of extra damage.

[stuck copper]

the way they're doing it now tells people to stack AP BBs, like that's a good idea.

[ornate mantle]

That could be why it is being promoted.

[wintry sonnet]

except there's not even any benefit to doing it

cause there's nothing to use it on

[stuck copper]

yeah

it's an odd decision for sure

[wintry sonnet]

if you have to use more than 1 battleship for trash mobs, you're kinda doign it wrong anyway

so the mechanic is literally a newbie trap

"Hey if you use 2 battleships with AP, you can kill those trash mobs"

Seems legit

[ornate mantle]

Unfortunately a lack luster addition to the game despite there being efforts to bring it up, lol.

I hope this is a preemptive move.

[wintry sonnet]

it's shame too

cause I could see this mechanic being good

if not for the overly restricting it

[ornate mantle]

Inb4 C14 only spawns 3^ BB nodes.

[wintry sonnet]

cause the german AP gun is the fastest of them all

by like 2 seconds

take HMS fleet for example

you could have Liz with the AP gun armor breaking enemies

and letting her servants do the rest

[ornate mantle]

Imagine Warspite doing that armour break.

[wintry sonnet]

I mean her skill would just go after suicide botes anyway It could work if it counted skills with AP

[ornate mantle]

My wallet is going to die.

[wintry sonnet]

only really interested in Yuugure and maybe Ayanami

wait

it's not even guaranteed?

SERIOUSLY????

Fuck me, why even stop there

why not make it only work on Midday of Thursday on the 20th day of the month during hour 15 minutes 5 and 7

[slow drum]

at least something

[cosmic pier]

wasnt gonna kill my plates upgrading an AP gun anyway

[ornate mantle]

Armour break had so much potential.

[slow drum]

my ap gun is +6 and I have 2 +0 rip

[wintry sonnet]

then feel free not to spend any more on it cause the new mechanic is literally pointless

[slow drum]

(the bb ap gun)

[cosmic pier]

Im stingy when it comes to using main gun plates

[wintry sonnet]

with the amount of restrictions they put on it

[cosmic pier]

except if its gold 410mms

[slow drum]

I used it as a filler

[ornate mantle]

Only Loli BB can use armour break.

[slow drum]

was missing one purple bb guns so had nothing else do use

[wintry sonnet]

I dont even understand what's the point of introducing a mechanic that's supposed to combat overuse of HE guns on BBs when you break both its legs, change its wheelchair to have square wheels made of cheese blocks and then heat up the floor so it melts instantly

You could just leave it as it is, why even bother at that point

[cosmic pier]

I swear I wasnt the person who proposed this mechanic

[vocal bay]

@tight flower that was poetic

[flat palm]

@ornate mantle same, i wasnt expecting the lusty skin

[ripe mantle]

Wtf

[cosmic pier]

huh

[ripe mantle]

Sizzle in #avrora-general

[cosmic pier]

he's appeared like 3 times this week

or sth like that

[ripe mantle]

The AP mechanic is weird

Like the only times itd be remotely useful is during 11-3+ on 3 chevron BB nofrs

Nodes*

And thats giving it alot of credit

[wintry sonnet]

even then it's kinda pointless

even at lvl 105 my Amagi could've occasionally oneshotted a BB

not to mention she also provides a thousand other benefits that having a weak 20% proc rate highly restrictive armor break could not possibly make up for

[ripe mantle]

And its a low %

Just use DoY

[wintry sonnet]

that's kinda the issue

[ripe mantle]

Same effect

[wintry sonnet]

it's not even a sidegrade mechanic

it's just a complete downgrade

[vocal bay]

synd pls

[ripe mantle]

If they made it work with skills then at least itd be a bonus

[wintry sonnet]

I think the bigger issue isnt the skills

but the fact it only applies to heavy armor

[ripe mantle]

Yea

That too

I mean with it working on skills

At least itd be useful in pvp

Sorta

[wintry sonnet]

you know what's funny synd

take a guess how many heavy armor bosses there are in story chapters

[ripe mantle]

Non-

[wintry sonnet]

1

Bismarck

in tutorial battle

[vocal bay]

wow synd. so misinformed

[ripe mantle]

[vocal bay]

step it up

[ripe mantle]

But it doesnt even count there

Wo

So*

[wintry sonnet]

yup

you cant even equip or pick a fleet for that one

[ripe mantle]

Cause you cant equip an AP

[wintry sonnet]

[ripe mantle]

also cheesey dieded?

[vocal bay]

he's gone from the universe

ok

[ripe mantle]

koff

[wintry sonnet]

he was used as the wheels for my wheelchair metaphor

[vocal bay]

I can probably do that pretty easily

[ripe mantle]

LOL

[cosmic pier]

synd doesnt know shit bout this game tho

that's a known fact

[ripe mantle]

Its not really

[cosmic pier]

I mean

I know it

so its a known fact

[ripe mantle]

I mean.

Things you say aren't credible anyways

[cosmic pier]

not like stuff you say are

Im just trash and you're garbage

[ripe mantle]

Farming for Sendai has a hidden benefit

I can get more borfors

[cosmic pier]

wao

[wintry sonnet]

haven't even touched chapter 11 yet since maint

[cosmic pier]

ignored my akagiheart again

[wintry sonnet]

haven't even finished the event maps for that matter

[cosmic pier]

time to slap synd

[wintry sonnet]

I'm just so burnt out

[ripe mantle]

I already got my oxy torp

Did it in two days for some reason

[wintry sonnet]

already missed out on 2 HM days

cba to do anything

[cosmic pier]

slap synd for calling your waifu yuugari

[wintry sonnet]

I dont even

that's not even a word

[cosmic pier]

we were like but synd yuubari aint even in EN

[wintry sonnet]

I think that's just Synd being IQ 200

and mistaking Yuubari for Yuugure

[cosmic pier]

I wish it was that lmao

http://prntscr.com/n3bbbq
http://prntscr.com/n3bbec

idk how he went from shigure to yuugari

[wintry sonnet]

. . .

[ripe mantle]

What's the difference

Trash gets easily mixed up

[cosmic pier]

yeah you get mixed up a lot

[ripe mantle]

I dont sort my trash

[cosmic pier]

how are you still at 7 runs for sendai

[ripe mantle]

VDIR

And it isnt still 7

Last counter was 4

I did 3 extra last night before i played something else

[wintry sonnet]

weren't you farming for her since chapter 11 was added

[ripe mantle]

Yes?

[wintry sonnet]

and you only did 7 runs total since then?

[ripe mantle]

Well it took awhile to get to 11-3

[cosmic pier]

he's a snail

[ripe mantle]

Then VDiR came out

[cosmic pier]

time to show him my retro'd sendai and get danned

[ripe mantle]

Grinded mogami oath

[cosmic pier]

getting a vestal every 2 d3 runs

classic VDIR

[ripe mantle]

Grinded oxy torp

Now we are here

[wintry sonnet]

how did it take you 7 days just to unlock 11-3

did you actually grind danger level on all previous maps to 0 first cause your IQ 200 strats led you to believe you need to do that to proceed further

[cosmic pier]

next you hear he's gonna do a 3-2 and a 3-4 run and then do a 11-3 run

inb4 he's been doing that and that's whats taking him so long

[wintry sonnet]

ok, that'd explain it

doing 3-4 and 3-2 every chapter 11 sortie

[ripe mantle]

No

I only 100%ed them

i feel like it was someone in here who told me that

Also that Rin yawn is cute

[wintry sonnet]

bleh

I guess I'll force myself to finish D1-3 tomorrow

I just can't motivate myself through all this right now

endless grinding all the time

[verbal obsidian]

o its synd

[ripe mantle]

I only can do a few manual runs a day for w11

[cosmic pier]

during his biweekly visit to avro gen and getting bullied

[wintry sonnet]

didnt you lvl cap amagi?

[cosmic pier]

he prob doesnt know he can auto it

[ripe mantle]

Hm i think I lv capped her after 11-3

[wintry sonnet]

cause I ran her lvl 105 on 11-4

and I could easily autobattle almost everything except large main fleets

even couple medium mains if I felt like my HP was at a good place

[ripe mantle]

Only my boss fleet is lv capped

[wintry sonnet]

oh, you threw her into boss

[ripe mantle]

Ofc i threw her into boss

[wintry sonnet]

yeah that would be a problem

I tried running Tirpitz in her place

[ripe mantle]

Fleet 1 is boss fleet always

[wintry sonnet]

but it didnt work well

that fire damage reduction is just too good to pass on

[ripe mantle]

And Amagi/Jintsuu are always fleet 1

Im sure I could auto the boss with it.

Or manual the boss with fleet 2

But if imma manual anyways why not do it all the way

Not like it takes anymore time

[wintry sonnet]

I mean you could auto everything

[ripe mantle]

not enough ammo

[wintry sonnet]

pls

you leave a recon/aviation fleet last, you can auto on 0 ammo np

as long as it's not large aviation fleet

cause that one spawns mutslug too

[ripe mantle]

But then id have to do the boss

[wintry sonnet]

you can auto the boss too

[ripe mantle]

And fleet 2 cannot auto that boss

[wintry sonnet]

[cosmic pier]

[ripe mantle]

[wintry sonnet]

then make a real boss fleet

[ripe mantle]

Why tho

Oh no. I cant play Closers or ULiL for 5mins

Whatever will I do

[cosmic pier]

"but mah ancestors and traditions say I shouldnt change muh fleet ships"

[wintry sonnet]

dunno, cause you seem to lack motivation to run your sendai farm at higher rate than 1 run per 2 days

[vocal bay]

SYND

WHY WONT YOU PLAY CLOSERS WITH ME

[ripe mantle]

I just got back into it

[cosmic pier]

cause he's busy manualling 1 11-3 run a day

[ripe mantle]

Wdym

[vocal bay]

dm me your info later so i can add you :C

[ripe mantle]

I just got my violet to her next jc

[cosmic pier]

nice now go to #off-topic

[vocal bay]

no need, the convo topic is done

[cosmic pier]

its like when the mods ask you to stop 10 minutes after everyone stopped talking

[toxic scroll]

Rei your the last person to tell people to go to #off-topic

[ripe mantle]

I mean it's a response to your comment Rei

[wintry sonnet]

do you even know how to go into off-top rei

[ripe mantle]

#Clubs were a mistake

Avrora is the only alive one

[cosmic pier]

last time I went there someone blocked me and cried cause I was a white name person sending a panel from a manga

[wintry sonnet]

blocked for being white

[ripe mantle]

[wintry sonnet]

yea I'm not even gonna go there

[cosmic pier]

they meant me not having any roles, not whatever you're thinking

[wintry sonnet]

whatever I was thinking seemed more logical in a way

but that's enough about twitter, let's go back to boats

BP weekly gave a bb t3

just what I needed

[wintry sonnet]

haven't seen a common so far that'd make me think "I must oath this one"

Foxhound's pretty close to meeting this goal

[vocal bay]

wait, are all the other club chats actually dead?

[toxic scroll]

[wintry sonnet]

wouldn't know, I kinda stopped venturing outside of av-gen

[toxic scroll]

I'm only in this one

[cosmic pier]

lex got 75k messages total
sandy got 9k, last message yesterday,
washington got like 27k, last message sent some buncha hours ago
pvp got about 107k, idk bout the rest

wash and sandy seem pretty ded

[wintry sonnet]

av-gen 156k messages

[toxic scroll]

I mean the actual server avrora also has the most people

As far as I know

So more people would technically be in the avrora gen club

[wintry sonnet]

~~ to be fair about 70k messages here are propably Rei~~

[cosmic pier]

half of that

[toxic scroll]

You can also probably chalk it up to the same 5-10 people

No rei, the entire 70k

You shitpost here more than anyone else

[wintry sonnet]

Rei's at 35k

[toxic scroll]

other than that "Yukikaze is gonna be trash guys, I'm right you're wrong" guy

[wintry sonnet]

huh, well I'll be

I'm at close to 20k server messages

17k of which are av-gen

goes to show how little I go into other channels nowadays

[toxic scroll]

I'm only around 16k server messages, probably all avrora gen

I've only sent 27 messages in places other than avrora gen

[cosmic pier]

history 15k, tech 13.5k, dorm 1.5k, al-lore another 6.7k

guess they do talk a bit bout history

stop being kuso shitkikan and use every ship

[cosmic pier]

but that's dumb

[frank ingot]

but whats the point in using a maxed ship

what are you hoping for

excess exp to use after they remove the level 100 ca-

wait a sec

[cosmic pier]

[frank ingot]

[cosmic pier]

I'd much rather use a capped exp ship I like than a not even 100 ship I dont like

its a game not a job

The day is upon us.

The day light construction fucks us up once more.

[stuck copper]

tell the events not to rush

it is giving me some incredibilis jab

[verbal obsidian]

no my brothers

be strong

prepare you cubes, your gold, your waifus and your mental fortitude

[stuck copper]

and prepare your own coffin

if the event proves too much for you, and you question the meaning of your life

[verbal obsidian]

[ornate mantle]

@stuck copper Light Construction will fuck you up, event or not.

[glacial snow]

[ornate mantle]

chill your chika

[dim crystal]

HP of level 110 prinz with 200 affection

[vital edge]

It's already 8k without the ring

Just add Fire Suppressor and any eva aux for minimum shits given :l

[stuck copper]

I really really hope the construction rate is using Pseudo Random Distribution algorithm

so that I might have a certain chance to get a specified ship

now, I wonder if Cleveland's bust is smaller than Nimi's

[vital edge]

Wouldn't that be bad if the trend wasn't in favor of the ship you want

I'd prefer something like Quasirandom where you're not gonna end up with a dozen copies of the same unit...

[stuck copper]

@vital edge: it will reset after you get a certain ship

that is the purpose of PRD

[dim crystal]

I actually dont really care

I'll just roll until I got them all

[stuck copper]

if you can whale

that is

[dim crystal]

yes

[vital edge]

Yeah, after spending 400 cubes and not getting one ship, I learned to care

[dim crystal]

I have like 6.5 k gems ready for a rainy day

[vital edge]

[dim crystal]

and yes my mullany took 400 cubes

and its single rolls

=> worse

[stuck copper]

or maybe we were all set up from the beginning

take 100 players as a sample, around 3-4 of them will be in the worst zone, 10-12 of them will be in the best zone

but this "chance" varies from event to event, from pool to pool

[dim crystal]

well tbh we are just greedy at this point

if this was fgo

99.5 players would be in the worst zone

i got 9 cubes from monthly yesterday

[wintry sonnet]

uh, what

what is that new tweet

[dim crystal]

new patch

[wintry sonnet]

oh

so it's literally the same thing but separate pages

gotcha

[stuck copper]

multi-page master race

the images got compressed and resized when uploading to FB and Twitter

even my Full HD screen won't look anything readable

btw guys, my question is still unanswered

how big is Cleveland's bust?

We're getting a free skin that isn't for a common ship?

@stuck copper not very big

that's not why she's popular anyway

[stuck copper]

she is aniki, she is popular

aniki doesn't need bust, but I look at her like a girl, so I would prefer something fit for my hand

[vital edge]

Plus I reckon it's an A+/B cup

[wintry sonnet]

I'd reckon about a B cup

[vital edge]

depending on the artist

[wintry sonnet]

she's not flat, but she's not overly big

just fine is what I'd call it

[stuck copper]

at least she should be at Leander's size (retrofit)

[vital edge]

"Hardly there but it's there" describes it perfectly

[dim crystal]

normal sized

[vital edge]

"normal"

[dim crystal]

unlike the bombshells battleships and carriers

[stuck copper]

speaking of Nagato and Mutsu

[vital edge]

Urakaze sized

[dim crystal]

[stuck copper]

Mullany the nipple

[dim crystal]

speaking about that

[stuck copper]

Z35 the boobies dd

[ornate mantle]

Urakaze is a smol stack.

[dim crystal]

still no wash and norcal skin

[stuck copper]

no cranes either

[dim crystal]

but we got another aya skin

[ornate mantle]

No cranes yet?

[stuck copper]

well I wouldn't mind though

[vital edge]

The cranes need skins

[ornate mantle]

Don't give up.

[stuck copper]

give one for Shoukaku could be fine

[dim crystal]

so who cares

[ornate mantle]

You can get the cranes damn it.

[vital edge]

Gimme summer cranes already

[ornate mantle]

Give me bikini Zui and Shou

[dim crystal]

but we havent got summer aya

[stuck copper]

swimsuit cranes

[dim crystal]

[stuck copper]

Zuikaku said her sister is bigger and softer

But I don't see Zuikaku is in any way inferior

[ornate mantle]

Zuikaku is stack without a doubt.

[dim crystal]

fans: giv us cranes
yostar: more ayaya skins? SAY NO MORE

[ornate mantle]

I don't mind more Aya skins.

They tend to be quality.

[stuck copper]

also fan: gib NoCaro and Washy
Yostar: we gave you Sara refit and free skin

[dim crystal]

well sara skin looks great

so theres that

[ornate mantle]

Be patient you fucks. Their skins will be great.

[dim crystal]

at least its not a cygnet skin

[ornate mantle]

I guarantee.

[dim crystal]

oh waaaaaai

[ornate mantle]

I want more Cygnet skins.

I need them all.

[stuck copper]

no more Cygnet

[ornate mantle]

Yes more cygnet.

[stuck copper]

too many boobies DDs

[ornate mantle]

Not enough.

Give Urakaze a bikini too.

[stuck copper]

we have Cygnet the Foxhound retro

[ornate mantle]

Give me I-13.

[stuck copper]

Your son called me mommy too

[vital edge]

Petition to have 10 free skins on Cygnet

[ornate mantle]

Nein.

They must come out naturally.

[stuck copper]

Give Leander oath skin.

[vital edge]

And make her the only ship allowed to have dupes of in fleets

[ornate mantle]

So that they are quality as usual.

[stuck copper]

She deserves it for her service record in our bases

[ornate mantle]

Leander is great too.

Wouldn't mind a skin for her.

[stuck copper]

Also Yostar: so many requests, let's give them another Cygnet

[dim crystal]

[torn sorrel]

I wouldn't mind being able to run a full fleet of just DDs

all six ships

just DDs

[stuck copper]

Child abuse

[torn sorrel]

shh

[stuck copper]

Video Game Cruelty Potential

there is so many tasks Yostar can do at once

and here is the thing

Akagi was present in the game long before cranes

yet her story is not in EN yet

[dim crystal]

btw, 35 core data for 100 mental chips

worth?

since after today I will have 2x 381 and 1x atagun

and a 3rd oxy torp is redundant

[stuck copper]

we can earn around 59 core data per day

so if you think you can afford then maybe that's good

[dim crystal]

60 on hardmode w8

[stuck copper]

not on EN yet

we'd better be with world 7 as for now

[dim crystal]

w7 is 54

[stuck copper]

+5 daily too

[dim crystal]

ye I think I'll buy the chips

until they release more core data items

[stuck copper]

well there is no reason to rush

[dim crystal]

what about the skyplane

[stuck copper]

I will just slowly mind break my girls

[dim crystal]

is it good

[warm bluff]

[stuck copper]

I don't know

I heard from our gurus it isn't worth

[dim crystal]

ye

but maybe

for science

[stuck copper]

Honolulu's quest is sweet af

@dim crystal: do your science after you acquire every essential items first

[dim crystal]

yea

2x 381

1x atagun

already got 2x oxytorp from event

[stuck copper]

me too

after today's server reset, I will be acquiring Atagun

[dim crystal]

and i wont be getting another one of that gun

coz there would be a better gun later

people said

[stuck copper]

and maybe I will get another Hood gun

and took another 14 days to restore my core data

[dim crystal]

is that 100 chips every day?

[stuck copper]

59

[dim crystal]

no, the core data shop

does it reset everyday

or per month

because 100 per month is like literally nothing

[stuck copper]

per month, I suppose

they are annoucing something regarding the core shop

[dim crystal]

thats less than what you get per day

lmao its really per month

the skyrocket is the fastest fighter in the game

at 9s cd

[stuck copper]

given that world 8 isn't here, we can get maximum 59 * 30 + 15 * 4 = 1830

[dim crystal]

15*30?

[stuck copper]

ffffff

15 * 4

[dim crystal]

hmm

after atagun I think we should save the core data

for shells

and planes

[stuck copper]

yep

with the new AP mechanics, getting a type 1 shell might be a good idea

and time to make Bismarck gun great again

[dim crystal]

does submarines cost oil?

[vital edge]

I bet they do

[stuck copper]

they do

none can work without oil

[ornate mantle]

Do you guys think submarines function off of the crews happiness?

[dim crystal]

yes

on thoughts and prayers

[ornate mantle]

Oh shit so did I.

[stuck copper]

the girls can fight for us, but we must feed them

[ornate mantle]

Gonna change my account name to I-13

[toxic scroll]

bet

[ornate mantle]

@toxic scroll : If it's available, i'd be down.

Or even possible.

I know AL doesn't have a problem with spaces.

But, dashes are a different thing.

[toxic scroll]

try a trash throwaway account first

just make sure your's is bound first

[ornate mantle]

Mine is bound, but I'd rather not be starting alt accounts just to test names, lmao.

Just based on what I can see, no account names with Dashes.

Special Characters shouldn't be a problem though.

Hm, idk if i'd even be able put 3 characters as my name.

[toxic scroll]

only one way to find out

[ornate mantle]

Bitching about it on general.

[toxic scroll]

i see a 4

[ornate mantle]

Right on it.

[toxic scroll]

i got a good few people with 4 letter names on my friends list

[ornate mantle]

Yeah, lowest i see is 4.

[toxic scroll]

so 3 letters/numbers + 1 space

[ornate mantle]

Wait.

yeah, a dash should count as a character.

Damn, no Dashes for usernames.

[stuck copper]

____UNIX____ is this name acceptable?

[ornate mantle]

With Underscores?

[stuck copper]

yep

[ornate mantle]

If dashes aren't acceptable, I don't imagine underscores being any better.

[stuck copper]

I don't know they accept it

I rarely use dash

I'd prefer -- instead

[ornate mantle]

Only reason why I wanted a Dash is for I-13

[stuck copper]

How about Object 13?

[ornate mantle]

LOL, heavy object reference?

[stuck copper]

no, Soviet tank project

[vital edge]

I wasn't a fan of the Object tanks but 262 had me mildly interested

[stuck copper]

262?

the project based on IS-7 chassis?

[vital edge]

SPG tank that looked rigid af

yeah

[stuck copper]

hmm, it is 261 iirc

[vital edge]

all of the spg's from the soviet tanks looked the same to me but it's really just the long ass barrel attached to a pancake with treads that had me

[stuck copper]

That gun must be taken from Soviet light cruiser Kirov

[lusty drift]

Nice pfp

Best girl.

[stuck copper]

https://imgur.com/gallery/dRwUm

I have an archive dedicated to her

[lusty drift]

Relatable~

[stuck copper]

you won't be able to find such a kind smile like my pfp

[lusty drift]

My smugness levels are unmatched

[stuck copper]

Kazuki doesn't need to do smug

[lusty drift]

She's just naturally smug.

[stuck copper]

her calculation and processing skill are just unmatched, can change the world at her whim

[lusty drift]

Not wrong.

[stuck copper]

I wish Akane Tomonaga would voice someone in AL cast

her voice with Kazuki is just downright awesome

[lusty drift]

Yeah, then make Commander's voice Takahiro's

[stuck copper]

if only he is featured in AL anime

personally, I'd prefer Yuuichi Nakamura

[lusty drift]

Hmmm.

Can't disagree with that preference.

[stuck copper]

seriously though, do you think a Commander will make appearance and have voice in AL anime?

although non-canon, what we could see from AL cast is that the Commander is male

even in KC, when the commander's gender is ambiguous, the subtitle uses "he" pronoun

[lusty drift]

I doubt the Commander will. He/She will probably just be mentioned from time to time.

[stuck copper]

without a commanding presence, it will not look like a military base at all

[vital edge]

It's hard to put a commander with a face in an anime that's supposed to center around its fighting force

[toxic scroll]

just a big old A

for a face

[vital edge]

at the same time, it really will look weird if there is no commander for such a large and diverse base

ships from every nation gather in one single dock

[dim crystal]

well they could display his silhouette

mysteriously

[vital edge]

that would mean he is an irrelevant presence

[dim crystal]

[vital edge]

and that's not wrong from the audience's view

[dim crystal]

well lets see

I'm all in for a canon commander

tbh

[vital edge]

A canonical commander would be nice

[dim crystal]

but we all know the commander is not gonna appear

[stuck copper]

Just hide the eyes

making an eyeless commander

[dim crystal]

with a black bar?

[stuck copper]

nope

not even close

make him like Oni Chichi's dad with his eyes sometimes hidden

[vital edge]

I've seen enough hentai to know why those eyes are hidden

[dim crystal]

or jotaro

[stuck copper]

If Unicorn is presented in the anime and she uses "onii-chan" to refer to Commander, a "he" is a must

Unless of course, Unicorn is completely out of scene of Ai Kakuma refused to voice her

[dim crystal]

well commander is a dude

this i'm most certain

one of the few things i love about the east

is that they take no bullshit from the west

and the vocal minorities

a.k.a SJW

[stuck copper]

I don't know about that

What is SJW anyway?

[dim crystal]

too political for this chat

google it

[stuck copper]

From Korean I assume?

[dim crystal]

what

[stuck copper]

Social Justice Warrior

......

[dim crystal]

no they are from the west

[toxic scroll]

Then why'd you bring it up in the first place

(that's gonna pop up twice because my internet shit out and I'm on my phones data rn)

[dim crystal]

the only thing i want from the anime is a real storyline

anyway

or a real storyline

in game

[toxic scroll]

There's gonna be SoL

And you're gonna accept jt

It

[lone sinew]

[toxic scroll]

[lone sinew]

oathed jav yesterday

and her oath skin is

[toxic scroll]

Nice

I personally think it's bleh

But

I also don't like jav

So there's a lot of bias in there

[dim crystal]

I agree, jav's oath is awesome

my first retro

in fact

shes more of a manual boat

but still... just as good as the other starters

[toxic scroll]

Evade bait

Imagine needing evasion to be good/relevant

[lone sinew]

[vital edge]

Jav is a manual bote?

Her timer barrage is a cone attack that can basically cover the whole right side of the screen, her basic barrage sweeps the right side of the screen, has self-eva boost, and her torp stat is average enough to warrant magtorps and just make her do auto

Does playing her on manual actually do anything?

[toxic scroll]

not like it makes her evade go up

ships just don't run into as many things

[vital edge]

Her eva is naturally high as a DD and the boost is so overkill that she could sweep an entire screen of bullets and not receive damage

But yeah, collision avoidance sort of applies to every vanguard ship

ignoring vanguards with Glowworm in it

[toxic scroll]

glowworm the strongest

[vital edge]

I lost count of how many times I made her exit to the right of the screen

[toxic scroll]

I still want to level my Glowworm

[vital edge]

And I still need to max the blue skill

Yuki and Dork are important rn though

[toxic scroll]

blue skills

jeez

so many blue skills

so little blue books

[vital edge]

"So many"

Bitch, I had 70 T3 blues before those two arrived

[toxic scroll]

i had like

[vital edge]

It was the reds that literally didn't exist since I began playing

[toxic scroll]

40-50 of each book

just last week

[vital edge]

A good thing the blues are being used

[toxic scroll]

only reason i got more blues

is because i'm using them solely on YKKZ rn

i'm using T2 reds

rn

for my ships

[vital edge]

Not once has my T3 reds ever hit 20

Never

My yellows can't be dented

The blues were the middle ground

[lone sinew]

trying to lvl a lv9 skill with purple books is so slow
