Sweet, thanks.
Mornin', guys, hope your draws go well
Sweet
got everyone but Valiant off 30 here
oh no...
took me 140 for all
I actually pulled a dupe hermoine.



Back to sleep

Luna did you get everyone.

Howe is so cute.
It only took half my mail.
To get her.

Incredible how in all those cubes.
I got 1 Eagle
i had 4 of one purple, 3 of the other purple, 1 atago, 1 pow, 2 hood, 2 of one SR, then i got 1 of the other SR.
shit banner. next.
Hahaha, it happens.
I went in without a care in the world.
I have Sea slug, so now I'm just... satisfied.
does this shit have oversized suicide boats?
pretty sure those big fuckers go straight for your backliners.

So Hipper is now a drop for the event
@ornate mantle I don’t think I got you on friends

Oof
day one or bust
I'm gonna pull some doctor pepper out of the market.
dr pepper is the best soda 

What about hot Dr Pepper?

didn't know that was a thing.
Honestly when I saw her name.
I was hoping she'd be a Lamia.
When they revealed an elf I was so disappointed.

@flat palm i blame u
in what 
ff14
rookie numbers but respectable
it is if u started in march
again not that much 
no
yeah its nice
that playtime is why i dont wanna ever play another mmo 
what server are people on again 
LIght 
i have no money 
i afk a lot in ff14
i leave it open behind my work stuff and check retainers / craft lol
and talk in FC chat
Why do these fleets hurt so much! 
what does that even mean "almost"
Chinese BOTW Autumn 

@icy plume You talking about HM right?
The amount of planes I imagine is part of it
i dont fight the planes. i assume the plate drops are shit.
Not even the plane ones Cal
In general there's a chunk of planes on the nodes
Most events generally don't have this many planes
is there? i thought it was stuff getting through or something. maybe i should stop watching anime.
Lol
dang. chonky planes.
Told ya
they're just fat though.
That would be fine
If there wasn't so many
that was a plane node. i'll keep an eye on the rest.
do they mix those in as well, or is it just random ground fleets?
They mix in both from what I can tell
because the only thing i noticed were those big boats going kamikaze on you.
The big kamikaze boats are killing me
i'm going without any dds, because those idiots would just ram them.
I'd argue it seems this event is a little overtuned
Especially if we compare it to previous events that is
Howe
baking cookies on juustagram
the big boats are just regular boats that happen to move towards you instead of standing in place.
but they're so thicc, they tend to get through all the time.
not all of them, but some.
Keep in mind that's C1 too
i'm on c3
That's what I mean
Do imagine when you get into D's
Seems rather overtuned for a standard run of the mill event no
not claiming it's overtuned, but i did ask if it was harder than usual some time ago. because i did notice that i had to take it somewhat seriously.
Yeah it's definitely harder than the norm
i dont mind bringing out the 120s. i'm done raising all the ships i want.
aside from the new ones
i dont think c3 has any subs. i'm using asw gear regardless. and yes, it heavily impacts dd survivability.
CLs can get away with it. dds just fucking melt, especially when they run into things all the time.
Tbf
When do DD's ever not melt
because eva doesnt do shit when rammed
Like I'd argue at this point
DD's actually need reworking to some extent
Because the parts where they're supposed to excel
CL's and CA's are just better outright
yeah, i only use one or two DDs. the rest are just eh.
Exactly
Like in most cases
yukikaze or naganami
Bringing a DD is more detrimental than it is helpful
Unless you're talking like a few couple of them
Just use Leipigz?
i can't use anything else otherwise they'd steal mvp from backline 
i need to farm odin though

Sad part is though Rand
It's actually not that overkill
Your shit gets melted in this event on HM
you can feel the increase in difficulty.
this is not normal.
Yeah
Not by any standard
those maps should be 2:1 easy. if not 1:1
Yet if you try it 1:1 with 120
You actually feel your units get literally melted
yeah, even your 120s can die
1:1 is too hard for casuals like me 
i go overkill because pr, and i have 24k oil to kill.
which somehow only seems to increase instead of decrease wtf?
Like the average level being 70
I mean honestly
If you went in at 70
You'd get fucking destroyed
don't get me wrong. i'm not complaining. i actually approve of things getting tougher, as long as it's somewhat reasonable. the levels seem inappropriate though.
Yeah definitely
Says average of 70
If you actually went in with 70
You'd die
No if's and's or but's
Like if 120's who have the 50% bonus damage / reduction can get melted
do note: i am not going for efficiency.
A level 70 won't stand a chance
maybe they decided to balance it with a 3:3 fleet of pr botes at lvl 70
Even PR botes wouldn't manage it at 70
Like being 120 means you reduce damage by 50% and do 50% more
And even those are getting hit extremely hard
Which is odd when the average level is as low as it is
i dont think they will ever balance around pr
Extremely misleading if I'm honest about it
exp is so bad 
So the exp is shit too?
i'm used to w12, so...
it's a given, i guess.
680 without bonus

yeah, they're just regular ones that go kinda fast
why can't there be an event with good exp 
you mean like kizuna ai?
C3 shits on planes
that would be something
CVs
oh it's been so long i dont remember kizuna's event 
it had decent exp and a lot of siren nodes
which have boss exp, right?
so that was kinda nice
they were pretty easy as well, except for the shoukaku ones
we were all chilling here and farming pr back then. was nice.
i remember kizuna event got me into her music
idk much about hololive music, just the random vocaloid covers they do
except, there is one vtuber, where the actuall woman is pretty hot
but kizuna makes some good originals and covers
i forgot who it was
yeah
by that i mean it's your regular streamer culture thing, except more weebish.
I broke Tosa out

The funny thing is
For this event
It'd probably be more oil efficient to run the lower maps
Unlike most of the other event
Due to the requirement of HM
Yea probably
if i had a non-ear-bleeding voice i'd wanna try being a vtuber
Which is definitely unusual to say the least
Luna would want Blue poison avatar
sure. if you want to waste your time farming your ass off every single day. i'll just pump out all that oil and get my points more quickly (hopefully).
I mean, you don't know your voice is ear-bleeding to others
no i wouldn't wanna get sued by yostar 
hey, man. i had to. the gacha was killing me.
Well thankfully for me
I grabbed Hermione from gacha
So that's 8k I don't need to waste it on


it's a matter of pride. i want my ship, i get my ship. fuck oil.
thats right Cal
i wish i had pulled her
Oh I get that
It's definitely odd though
at this point i'm just glad i'm done with it.
Usually like doing maps in HM were more oil efficient with the right maps
Now it seems like normal maps are actually more efficient in this event
getting hermione dupes ain't bad.
Which is definitely odd
Oh I don't need them
she does drop, right?
I have like
30-40 Bulins
And like 50-60 standard bulins
I think
Something like that
Hang on
Just checked
Yes she drops
remember when you had to farm a certain map for a ship that would only drop from there?
like deutschland
Oh god
fun times haha
Nothing quite as fun
For me I was quite lucky with her
Others though
I felt that pain
this game's gotten so soft

Well I'll say this Cal
I spent a lot of oil
On I think it was 7-2
Ah that drop
It took me longer to get that rare
Than it did to get Maya
And that's not even an understatement either
was that isuzu?
w7 could only be isuzu
No wait
8-2

Ikazuchi
So much oil poofed
oh, rem and ram
i think the blue one took a long time for me
Yup
Inazuma was super fast for me
Yeah Ikazuchi
Red came out for me back in that event, blue I had to farm for


dont most ppl who want to have them gender changing surgeries go have it in thailand
it's sort of a tradition or something in some asian countries, iirc.
those surgeries are super scary 
like, they've had these people for decades. they're normal there.
so it makes sense for some of them to know how to do it.
not sure about the standards though. it sounds like going to mexico for breast implants.
i should read up on that. last time i heard about it was in school.
they taught you that stuff in school? 
we have themed weeks where we learn about one specific topic. other countries and cultures can be part of that.
Thighland
people who get higher education are required to work on something like that as well. for example, my year had indian culture.

india has some sort of genderbend subculture as well.
i forgot what it's called though.
i'm too much of a coward to go through something so life changing 
ya i'll probably never do it, i'm too old already and i'm not guaranteed to be happier after the thing
no point in trading unhappiness for unhappiness.
maybe look for alternatives.
like the next best.
yeah, it is. i'd stop playing if it weren't for anime.
binging helps a lot.
oooh that artist draws a lot of nice non lewd art
Cheshire is gorgeous. I just wish she had long hair
not this friday 
@last kiln send Cheshire swimsuit
i wish i had long hair
Long hair sucks
I don’t want it for myself
But looking at cute girls with long hair.

ya it is a huge pain, my hair isn't even that long yet and it's already getting annoying lol
cute 3D 
3d is super cute!
i got a haircut yesterday
incase shit locks down again
i hated having short hair all my life so quarantine is a good excuse to grow it out
i like zero effort with my hair
You know I also hated short hair for my younger years
that reminds me i need to buy a hair dryer
And then I realized how much of a bitch it was to maintain long hair for a dude with no desire to put on that effort
pony tail all day
So now I cut my hair short
Always
Ive learned to cut my own hair thanks to quarantine
No more wasting $10 for a haircut
i keep it at medium length. i don't want to look like i got abducted by the military.
easy too. just get a trimmer for a couple bucks.
Yeah
i like long hair since it means i can hide behind it 
Cost efficient and comfortable. Sign me right up.
God I love the feeling of short hair in the shower. Feeling the water on my head is one of the highlights.
hide behind it so i dont have to look at myself in the mirror 
also free donut at dunkin tomorrow 
gotta stand in front of the sink when i brush my teeth
the mask helps too
got his fake tits ready for trapplay like that big graf zepp cosplayer
Haneru spotted
Guys
I just realized something
Remember that leak a long time ago with the iowa / yamato guns
I'm pretty sure it wasn't fake

That was a leak from over a year ago
And that torp is now currently in game
Same stats and everything
That ain't no coincidence for sure

Lol
now iowa/Yamato same event
or one of em is finally coming
remember to practice social distancing

been awhile for a Sakura or Eagle event
It has
Remember
We're only getting reruns
To catch up on what we missed
So they don't really count as actual events
We shouldn't have any more reruns now though
From what I recall

Only like return of the war god
But that's a small event to begin with
I burned a lot this event. More than 260 cubes and not even a single Perseus appeared... I am shaking, even though the money I get to buy gems to convert to coin are basically free...

sigh
really starting to get on my nerves
with how one event they do 2x points on hard mode
tfw you're not allowed to finish FS
then the next one they be like "nah fam, nobody likes that"
every event should have double point bonuses for every map, and an SP stage.
I got 320 cubes remaines. If the last 20 cubes didn't produce Perseus, I would deem her lost cause...
Down from 568 cubes
also I love how they've given up on submarine enemies
to the point they just resurface on their own after like 5-10 seconds
literally no point carrying asw gear 
the generic ones don't surface though.
Still a naval gun duel theme, things like submarines isn't that exciting
they'll fuck up your backliners.
not if you delete the enemy before enough get in
true
Good luck deleting them fast, considering the nature of our grinding
Well, I feel less shaken, time to off
tfw you care so little you throw a 40 oil fleet into normal modo
cuz might as well grind up some affection
Botes and Shitkikans
not gonna farm something that has even shittier exp.

chess is hard 
girls with a hard chest
Hard mode doesn't have any spectacular drops either

im pretty hard rn
are the drops the same this time?
More like
usually there's only shit in normie mode
"Black dildo"

Is hardly a good reason to farm
actually is the dildo any good
ah
Keep in mind

wait what
It's actually worse than rainbow
oh, i too thought it was a sub torp also
it's only for pvp though i think 
it's a cheap rainbow torp alternative for cruisers and destroyers.

thats why they cant equip them
Essentially what Cal said
I mean, you'd want your best torp on your main fleet anyway
i mean subs
so if you dont have neough rainbow torps to throw around, it means you got nothing for submarines
like, you don't need ten or twelve rainbow torps. just leave the ones you have on your subs and use the black one on your vanguard.
i have like 8 rainbow dildos, i think im good
And that's implying you use rainbow dildos
gae
but im sitting on 6k+ core data tho

Either way
It's usage is more if you ask me
i think i have 10. not sure,
For first torp memes
or for filling in stat requirements for event maps
Since the 5% damage only affects the first salvo
the damage too?
i thought it was just the homing effect
well that sucks
"Change first torpedo salvo to magnetic torpedo and increase the damage by 5%."
first salvo
The way it's worded would suggest it
it do be like dat sometimes
so, anyone could give me a tldr on the new botes in terms of usability
that good huh
She's the best healing bote to be added to date
As for the others
Howe is decent
Doesn't seem like broken status
But a solid BB all around
Hermione is ok but gets better with Dido class
Like all Dido class do
When the battle starts, 1 (2) airstrikes are available immediately. Airstrike cooldown time is increased by 90%. After launching an airstrike, heal the vanguard fleet for 1.5% (7.0%) of their max HP and the main fleet for 1.0% (3.5%) of their max HP.
i'm raising all the gacha ones. they seem alright. i need hms fleet tech anyway.
But Aqua
That's her nerfed skill
It used to be 60% instead of 90%
They nerfed it literally more or less just after she came out
that's still stupidly powerful
That's how busted she was considered
14% max hp heal at the start for your vanguards
she's still busted because she frontloads her healing
Keep in mind she heals the backline too
Unlike any other healing bote
so you get it even during shorter fights
The thing as well
A lot of dumb people didn't realize
Is they were all like
"Why 3 strikes instead of 2"
Simple
It means the 3rd strike is always charging
"Increase hangar size to 3. All ships in this fleet recover 1.0% of their max HP every 40 (20) seconds. When other fleets on the same map enter battle, after 20 seconds any surviving ships recover 1.0% (3.0%) of their max HP. "
Right from the start
not only does she have a busted heal for her own fleet, she also heals other fleet
But yeah a lot of people said dumb stuff like
"The first heals would get wasted"
But this is actually a fallacy
As you can stagger the usage
Due to the 3 hanger
because maps only have one fight lmao
Not just that
The reason for 3 hanger
Isn't to actually stack 3
preload doesnt mean auto-cast
It's so the 3rd hanger
Can recharge
With it's like 36-40 sec strike
Meaning if you drop one during any point then
You can still save the heals
Exactly
That's why most people didn't even read that part
They glossed over it entirely
For all
But generally
People did the numbers
It's like
70-80+ seconds
Before Uni and that
ok that makes it a bit more reasonable
Can actually throw out more strikes
Which to be fair
When does any fight last that long

in most fights, you dont even get 3 strikes anyway
Exactly
so whatever
Not to mention people always go
"Uni heals more"
But don't account for the fact she heals a full fleet
And heals the other fleet too
As well as passively heals
yeah, but uni also does little more than that
also, on top of her pre-charged heals
while perseus has 3 skills
we need unicorn retro to keep up with powercreep
she also heals 1% every 20 seconds

passively
She single handedly
Completely destroyed healer meta
nah-uh
akashi is good for ammo and extra AA
hot
double healer!
ryuuhou + perseus, let's go
Yes
cause of course she does lel
Oh right Aqua
Eagle
Is basically Bearn
But slightly different
So she's a solid unit as well
and what was bearn
eagle looks bettter anyways
CL gun / CV
awesome
another fucking aux gun carrier
with a firepower stat
let's shti on Houshou some more


The main difference
"When launching an airstrike, launch an additional special swordfish torpedo squadron Lv.1 (Lv.10)."
Is this is her second skill
and ofc she can switch between aux and dive bomb er
So what's deceiving about her the most
can we please get a fucking houshou retrofit, or at least retroactively give her the same utility
Is that because her second skill
Is basically more bombers
Using a CL gun
Is basically a normal CV
With CL guns
Maybe I should start being a metawhore
not sure she's meta, but it sounded cool, so in the study she went.
So I can actually make use of ships I get instead of leaving them to gather dust
Yeah she's not necessarily meta but
She'll be fun to say the least
I plan to use her
yeah
I want to see how she'll work
more tools to play with is always nice.
There are tons of notes that are considered great
The only 2 disappointments really in this event
And I don’t use them
instead of "do i pick this one with a gun, or this one with a gun?"
They’re literally level 70
Are Icarus and Valiant
And gather dust
Valiant is basically a BB Dunk with an extra skill
I love how people care so little about Icarus
That on the wiki
nice english there, wiki
She's the only one not translated


can someone tell me hermione's skillset
great
i just saw that too
wanted to know if she's any good
Oh hang on
Let me find it
I'm guessing 1st is a barrage
she's too pretty to suck
valiant is super cute but too bad she sucks 
Everything sucks
Give sec

Just finding the datamine again
So who did you want the skills for?
Hermione was it?
google translate helps
At the beginning of the battle, if you are not a vanguard leader, increase your artillery, lightning, air defense, and reload by 10.0% (20.0%). If your team contains other royal faction characters, increase your own damage by 3.5 % (8.0%)
i can make sense of it
" Every 15s after battle starts, fire a barrage, when this barrage triggers, if there is no enemy within 30 units, fire an extra special barrage."
Damage: 20x20 (Both)
Bullet #1 (20) | HE | 120%/80%/60% (Normal)
Bullet #1 (20) | HE | 120%/80%/60% (Special)"
"If not the vanguard lead ship, self FP/Torp/AA/Reload increased by 10-20%, if there are other HMS ships in fleet, self damage dealt increased by 3.5-8%."
Was Hermione's
Tldr
so just a straight up dps bote
She is really good with Dido class
As all Dido class are
das pretty close
"5s after battle starts, fire a barrage, 40-70% chance to trigger again every 30s after battle starts."
Bullet #1 (20x24) | HE | 100%/80%/60%
Bullet #1 (34x5) | None | 70%/90%/120%
"At the start of battle and every 20s after, reduce self torp damage taken by 6-20% and modify self torp firing patterns for 10s."
For Icarus
modify firing patterns?
que
like what, she shoots in straight line instead of spread?
i dont know. the rest sounds bad, so it probably doesnt matter anyway.
Yeah Icarus is lacking compared to most other botes in this event
"every fifteen years, does one small thing"

Like while Howe has an rng skill
It's literally a cannon shot with 50% burn chance lol
i wish the purple DDs were stronger, they're all so cute 
I wish DD's in general
Were buffed
if they were stronger, they'd be CLs 
Evasion sounds good on paper
I wish Desuland got her retrofit.
But the issue is that enemy hit values
Are so damn high
That their evasion means nothing
evasion is useful though, too bad DD high evasion goes into diminishing returns
I assume the one that jumps is
or the poo poo pee pee short range one
that looks like fucking manneken pis
that ain't hitting jackshit
it looks like she's using a garden hose
what is she trying to do? shoot down planes?
Lol
would be cool if she did lol
It'd actually make sense though
If a unit is in 30
Hermoine is cute.
so basically it's not an additional barrage in a sense
Basically its a basically.
cause one way or the other only half of it's gonna be on target

Well technically
If the second barrage doesn't trigger
It'd only be 1 barrage anyway
Yes
Since they both have the same number of shots
And same damage modifier
I assume it's meant to be there to help with close range shots
And then long range
If they're too far away
I'm assuming the short range one ignores shields
since it's being lobbed
or did they not think this through
That could be the case
will I tho
Yes.
It could literally do jackshit.
I haven't even changed my fleet to start farming exp on cheshire
I can't be assed lmao
And you'll use it.
bp cute
Sounds like a hella woke mobbing fleet to me
BP is cute don't get me wrong
But her one downside
Is the same reason PoW is a douche nozzle
I have no idea what Howe does.
bp best sniper
She's basically a huge buffer
she does cookies
But her skills are getting level 10'd.

I genuinely don't look at what ships do now.
I just level their skills to 10.
Like a mindless zombie.
" Every 35-15s, fire an aimed barrage at a random enemy, after this barrage triggers, all BB/BC/BBV in fleet gain 10-20% Reload and Accuracy for 8s
156x4 Damage"
Bullet #1 (4) | HE | 140%/110%/90%
50% chance to burn"
See I'm reading that.
"Self FP and Reload increased by 4.5-12%; if sortied with either KGV, PoW, DoY, Monarch, or more than 3 HMS ships, self FP and AA increased by 4.5-12%." "
Well the first one
My brain.
oh...
You know 406mm?
You know how you have 3 salvos
universal prints in shop are for PR 3
Imagine 1 shot firing
kek
I don't.
That's how it works
I don't even want to know.
guess PR2's gonna be another PR that I'll never finish
KEKW
Well burn is op
And fuck.
Her skin is great.
But yeah what makes her good
Is less the skill's damage
And the reload / acc buff

She has the highest potential FP
In the game
Period
Even over warspooder and FDG

I actually don't think I'll get her skin.
Get it
It's not that different to her base art.
I was gonna get bongo's skin
So she'll stay base.
but I can't find a reason to justify throwing more money
beyond the monthly commission
Oh right
Aqua
Don't forget
Get the plane from shop
It's the best fighter in the game
For damage
Has 1k bombs
You know with AK.
I def can't throw more money into AL.
Outside of monthly either.
There's only one problem currently anyway
The twitter showed we still have 2 parts of anni to come
or I-13
And if my guess is as good as it usually is
We're going to get anni skins
And more stuff
So
What a wild guess.
anni skins on an anniversary?

Well the last part shows what looks like Cheshire and Drake
In what I imagine are skins
the thing is, I found it easy to justify throwing money at skins

when I was actually playing actively
Har har very amusing
nowadays? I dont even bother finishing the dailies
I leave the win 10 battles quest at 9/10
cause that's where I'm at after doing hard mode and daily challenges

I only think that whaling in AK is more value.
Like QF's for example
So i focus there.
i can't afford to spend money in either 
Rather than in AL where all I get are skins and don't really play the game much.
You spend quite a penny on other shit.
So it's not like you're unable to do so.
You just don't like microtransactions.


I don't play traditional games.
And my only real hobby is Light Novels which are inexpensive.
I still wanna try Fall Guys.
I don't spend much in AL either nowadays
actually having tons of fun trying to create the most stupid 999 quality items
Skins are arguably cheaper too.
And even better
They only come out infrequently
So it's not like every other event your dropping your entire wallet
I just wish AK would start investing in L2D and animated shit already.
