lately, it kinda feels like unzen gun is better on anchorage
doesnt live long enough to hit backline anymore
and she is hitting jintsuu
andrixt is haunting me man
literally won by one lightning bolt proc
the point of hinde gun wasn't to hit backline as much as pierce through the entire enemy vg and thus deal more raw dps than unzen or drake gun
makes sense
Yeah, you have 2 DDs.
and actually with jim, is black torp oxy that much more important than musashi radar black shell?
to wear beaver on backline instead
Musashi black what.
???
?
Why are you using that?
Beaver goes to backline due to their low eva stat.
Over more dmg?
black shell buffs their dmg
Like hell you can dodge these torps and shells with 40 eva stats
If you die, your big dmg goes nothing after all.
did they wear rudders before current meta?
i see
Also hit stats is important as eva stats.
Your big dmg can miss without some decent hit stats.
Black shell is just a terrible aux for pvp because there is no hit stat on it.
Speed, eva, hit. Three most important stats in pvp.
That's why your pve gears don't run well in pvp.
if jim's on asw torps, does she do double oxy fine
i could do goldburn if it matters
asw torp don't have as good magnetic as black torp aux
i dont have second blacktorp yet
They are less damage per torp and 1 less torp
double oxy IXs for now then
Mag wise is relatively weak too
the mag can't snipe backline as good as black torp aux
When you’re in doubt, Kashino is the best pvp ship
sandy?
washy
Even worse.
Not a problem

Sandy soon to be worst again
sandy is worse though
But I mean, mid ladder gaming ain't even related to how dead the server is.
Frick Sandy.
is amagi a strong server?

i know avrora lexi
Amagi 2nd most active

Sometimes having higher scores than Avrora now

just revive sandy pls
Ask Fbss.
Can't revive a braindead patient
Can you draw me a minor?

do u guys have +13 rainbow oxys
Nope.
I don't think I even have one oxytorp in the first place
I think people do +13 black torp
well that was cheap
Pvp brainrot.

full oathed = unbeatable
musa oath is for other things so it's fine 
P2w gamemode
f2p bullying

I started pvping with nothing.
Even sleep schedule.
That's how I reached R1 the second season I've played (also because Sandy is dead af).
hey pace leader was higher pace than lexi last reset 
by 1
alive server yes 
if Im not walled then it's good enough
my reset rates arent obnoxious too
- i meant that I actually have all the ships
well you dont need to be beaten to get walled 2-3 resets can bw enough
it wasn't before
last season i finished at 3s left 
because walled (had to retry 2 times)
gap is closing 
I'm sitting on one right now
damn
he just has to move early
ig it will stay

coming in clutch
no lmao, I got AndersonSM. Been waiting for 3h to see if I can reroll into a second bonus at 9/10
but I'd need to hit top 3
💀
cope Bonjet rushes
got 2 this season
more +9s than +11s
my rng is rigged trust
but you have oaths and gear
the mirror was worse
i have one 457 at +13
tf dont tell me you actually have a shit winrate
lolololol
i thought you were at 60-80%
now ofc the difference is a lot of those losses are due to instant rng shit I'd restart anyway
even in mirror
e.g. my NJ gets torp'd immediately
well yea
erm it could've still been a win 🤓
in that amount of time I could retry 3 times and get a steamroll 15-20s win
better use of time to just farm for torp rng
hm do people actually move very late nowadays
i feel like you can get walled really easily if you roll a wrong fleet at a wrong time
I'd never go below 5 in 5m
even on high end apparently
ig moving at 7-8 min isnt that early 
it is
yes
I hate being the pace leader.
I just want to be a sleeper.
I meant mirror match in my vanguard
both of us running anti torp
my only issue in the fleet rn is fortune is 7 levels behind everyone
A copium counter idea from CN of using Musashi NJ Amagi
To have Amagi's eva rate buff to backline cope that you dodge torps
Overall, not a viable idea due to consistency and disadvantage of not having Hiryuu
amagi too cope in 2023
would have to be "always hits" to make me even consider it 
oh, its about the buff
yeah thats even worse
for some reason i thought she debuffs enemy eva/eva rate
amagi just simply doesn't provide enough of a survivability boost
which is the whole reason to use her in the first place

real

amagi - nj - hiryuu
oh yeah, do you have a link to the video of their testing with Agir mid for countering Anti-Torp?
yeah to slow the enemy vg and have them get blown up by your vg and Musashi
would that be jintsuu agir fort?
at that point why not use HYMEN backline
honestly though, if we had a DD with decent survivability and a guaranteed freeze skill on torp hit or something
would actually shake up the meta
theyre permanently frozen when they blow up
btw wasnt agir not so successful in late testings because enemy vg was too fast to reliably hit slow?
and now vg is even faster
no it was actually because she's fat and eats torps
i mean it might make them run into it more but still
i think i remember ari saying agir has issues hitting shit because theyre too fast

yumi time 
getting alive to second strike 
Copium Overdose alert
There’s another vid with Fortune M instead of Sirius but I lost the vid
As in I don’t have it noted
🕵️ 📁 🔥

these feel too much like a hyperspecific comp which doesnt really take the current power of torpmeta
agir did literally nothing 
but muh cool dragon
the 2 times aquila hit were the 2 times the vanguard rammed the invisable wall
honestly if I wanted to cope on aquila why not just use kenny with sirius fortm jintsuu?
that agir did a grand total of nothing
agirs purpose is to slow with torpedos
she uses mag torps which are slow
fortm deletes torps
whats the point

why not just use hindenburg tbh
CA that time stops everytime she lands her shots (she has 100% geo accuracy)
bringing back that pvp time stop bug, which quite literally breaks pvp meta 
at least her feet are better than her in pvp 
CA gun with more than 5° of angle when?
What are some good ships to have for pvp?
Oh, thank you.



Back when I was maining Seydlitz + Agir I was never using Agir for the slow, it was barely even noticeable tbh. She was decent because her damage isn't that bad and if she didn't die to Shima she was actually quite surviviable. Now we have Felix and she is way better though
why not feather if off flag?
don't have feather/feather on kear
eva/avi, the logic checks out for me
kear has radar fuel/manjuu right
so with neither, then wnt off flag is optable for feather instead on hiryuu?
seems fine, but im new here so i'll wait for the others to chime in
wnt is good to have regardless of position
and maybe there is a case where i might need wnt active; cba swapping gears w/ sushi's beaver
haven't used kear yet to form a reliable opinion
Wnt on Hiryuu, Keasarge uses table/manjuu for annoying purpose.
Feather has eva stats and that's why some people use it.

Kear's damage aint that bad to be honest.
On PVE shes near or well around NJ damage
She really does have good base damage shes just held back by the fact shes slow and her damage tooks longer to ramp up compared to NJ whos immediate + auto 15s barrage
pogchampion

gaming

torp meta is just making people lose
we saw a similar level of score drops when Musashi first came out
Either people are losing too much or EN is as always sandbagging too hard
probably both
I think a lot of players started sandbagging once the guide came out
but this only caused them to overcap and thus drop scores even further
I take no responsibility


I bag until I overcap then I give up 
I won't eos (I have up early season)
They aren't following the Deathkt strat
That's why
What's deathkt strat
guess death waits faster ig
I sometimes rush 2 or 3 till aotn
Make a sandbagging guide they said, it'll be great they said
wake up
sandbag
sleep
forget to do tries
overcap
repeat
this is the way
Wake up
Sandbag
Sleep
Repeat 4x.
Sandy is in easy mode, you can sleep.
2 AM reset begs to differ 
2am 2nd set 
Wish I wasn‘t from eu in this case
Just play normally, Sandy aint't that hard.
B-but bagging…
Believing in good rolls 
Just go to sleep alr.
I don‘t need to sleep now
10 AM rn for me
I meant it like the 2 short resets happen at night for me
Then bag 1 rush 2.
Or just bag normal and wake up before the 2nd set of the night.


Sounds like sea timezone.
EU time
My 2nd reset is literally 2am lol
2pm, 2am, 8am here
But then I won‘t have an excuse for bad sleeping habits
Even worse lol
Time for server change
Cn/jp/tw?
kr 

Need ma booba
every server is casual when it comes to pvp
Bro wants to start it over because of pvp
Sandy is casual among casual
pvp rework when
Just joking
Gain experience

if you join the old server your experience wont help early on anyway 
ik ik
real pro tips for starters:
- keep a schedule
- don't overcap
don't ruin your lifesleep
I'm a noob so I'd say its a decent server.
youve already ruined it playing al
Have been gone for a while from pvp but trying it rn
so can skip that

Good food.
for
nah, meta will change before that happens
Most likely
or we'll get a stronger torp bullshit
Is PvP the thing you do after the hard content?
yes
when there's nothing else left to do, might as well pvp
because your other options are cat rerolling and Fleet Power grinding

Just do all 2
hello
@torpid shuttle
fcking KENNY.

You can do it right away.
It requires no skills at all trust me.
@stable dawn your Washington fellow...

you are taking a dark path
one that will bring only shame and dishonour to the Washington name
LET'S FCKING GOOOOOO

He isn't the first
unfortunately
Pvp lore.
Here and there
pics removed because mods are pussies and butts not allowed (ref to Le Malin's and Owari's skins)
got it bro
Also
le malin skin l2d is banned, png is fine iirc
iirc cropping butts and boobs banned too
@random anchor right?
oh i see then
wasnt owari skin fine? also for le malin only the l2d animation is banned
Rip Asanagi's skin
I didnt deny the cropping part, just the 2 skins you chose in your example

dont worry i would never
was i free
ill move rn if you haven't done it
but i can tho
not that bad
torps rng
i needa switch my shit ill get walled by most random shit someday
wym not that bad
Nice testing bro
Nnn.
i was probably half asleep and didn't notice the +9 
Long time ago.
I mean last season 
I had been throwing.
Very long time
i prob shouldnt complain about score drops when i have meta defense fleet but
i also want to flex my ships on defense
idk

What should I change
Musashi or Kearsarge replacing VV
Aquila is fine, Hiryuu is fine as well, heck u can use third BB. Can keep Aquila
Frontline is fine as is
can i see ur gears?
Kearsarge is dev23, no musashi
Cant get ss atm of equips, will do it later once I get the chance
FdG - NJ - Hiryuu then
and the vanguard is ok?
Its one of three correct choices that you have right now.
Probably want Hiryuu over Aquila tbh
and fdg over veneto due to no preload because of aquila being out i guess?
i thought aquila/vv would work better due to faster games
no vanguard either 
And your fleet power looks kinda low too, so it appears gear isn't maxed either
i got 76mm on shimakaze, rainbow torps, the hit aa gun, repair box and 550hp item, ur gun on harbin, gold torps, +fp aa, steering/toolbox, for jintsuu meta golden belgun, +13 gold quadmag torps, hit aa, toolbox+steering
i guess that's why
something on the lines of these, wondering if i should go oxy on jintsuu and harbin instead of toolbox
Don't use rainbow torps on your torp-focused ships in pvp.
Check the pin for proper gears.
Use this link
Trust
i use it on shimakaze because of the normal battles 
I don't trust these links.
The blue gun on shima is fine
can run this i guess
then again, it is sandy server. this'll do in a pinch
Guys is Constellation and San Jacinto good in pvp?
San Jacinto will have a preload and a barrage that crash the game
what's your gear setup
i used twin torp at first
but i died to preloads
so i didnt even bother with trying quad torp
fortm just lived longer
the other option was using ancho main tank with jintM mid and shima off tank
might be stronger tbh
ancho main tank was at least better than offtank ancho yea
but idk why ancho is a part of rock paper scissors

I'm not even using Musashi 
Smh Tamaki's biggest follower.
I shill with Tamaki 
I'm hungry.
why wyvern instead of ryuusei?
i assume it has bigger crash damage and intercept?
1 rank away from aotn rush 
more damage
Crash dmg
Converging used to be meta but it changed
ryuusei can whiff if they track vg
jintsuu meta on death torps are kinda like ryuseis 
tank jintsuu 
I OVERCAPPED
How come Tigercat isn't as recommended on Hiryuu Kai?
flapjack has more crash damage
And I'm assuming Sea Hornet also has more crash damage?
faster cooldown

faster speed
Ahhh.
Is WNT situational?
WNT is a good item for stats but its not recommended on flag on attack
id say it gets move value if you have better or equal gear than your opponent
if you have worse it will widen the gap, i would say
but you dont really get anything from slower fights in current meta
before you could stall for shinano but now you dont really have that
This should be a good setup right?
musashi flag
Musashi is the flag yes.
she would be in the middle then yes
purple gun 
and yea blue gun
true or not true @stable dawn
about wnt
im a noob so my words may be jumbled
also where manjuu
I never use wnt flag, but I'm biased because I play exclusively aggro
are you running anchorage
My Manjuu's on Anchorage but I don't use her anymore on PvP.
Tho I am respeccing my fleet atm.
Now on the vanguard.
well you'd prefer to use manjuu in pvp
Which ship would Manjuu be on? 
the only one that can use its effect i presume 
But I use JintM, Shima, and Harbin. 
i think you're using a uss ship in your mainfleet 
blue gun beaver sushi, manjuu kear off-flag, wnt hiryuu flag or off-flag
Trust
Take the red pill of Double Invul
Aight. 
Aight will also change that.
I think I need some advice on building a serious PVP squad. For now I've just been using my mob fleet of Nelson(Flag)/Howe/Unicorn Portland/Helena/Laffey but its time for me to get more serious. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
shimakaze. Nice. How's ur Jintsuu META progress? She'll be gone soon
are u near like 25k pts for mlb
shimakaze, enterprise and anchorage are good pvp ships i think
working on anchorage now, sadly don't have her yet
work on getting harbin, FdG, and Hiryuu
can use soemthing like hood/nelson/enty + jintm/shima/yuudachi in the meantime
Alrighty, my fleet points arent too high yet but will definitely work on them, been raising up hiryuu's skills in the background on the chance she's relevant, same with Juneau
juneau is somewhat relevant
maybe in previous meta 

she can probably carry you to aotn
will get her into the grinding squad then once Shima and Kazagumo are done, same with hiryuu
check the pin
check the pin
yeah tell the new player to use all the meta ships they don't have 
there is a section for new player.
I'll just steal them, no one will ever know!
how to kill discussion and community


You're saying that as if a community exists
Check the pin
Check the joke

How about I check both of you
@light crystal 
what is he running
Real
Well then, when's the seggs
Wtf VIRGIN comp
so how does double torp counter antitorp
Antitorp is a variant of double torp.
So you can mirror-match it.
Or run Anchorage to slightly counter it.
but how does anchorage even counter it
im asking about ingame
not the rock paper scissors
by winning vg fight so your backline has an advantage
anti-torp is squishy and if you can deal enough damage to ensure they sink to musashi barrage, ez win
in fortune mirrors, both vgs often get destroyed after musashi barrage leading to a backline vs backline fight
imo double torp is better on HYMEN to assist in reveal
but also in the weird off chance you find yourself in a hiryuu vs hiryuu duel, ancho usually will be unaffected by airstrike if she lives to reach backline
so that's pretty much a guaranteed win when final counter invuln wears off
like it's a very nuanced counter pick and for general climbing I just use anti-torp
it also might still be faster to just reset the fight until your fortune outlives theirs if you have a good phone lol
That is the reason why Anchorage can counter Kenny comp.
Because you don't have that kind of anti-vanguard ability to kill Anchorage with 2 457mm

also kear ghost gun is wacky
Not as wacky as you in bed

Funny enough, from my experience while using kenny, you can actually be walled by old stall comp if unlucky.

Anchorage and Juneau are just too many heal for no anti-vanguard fleet.
Because bdsm just kills all your vanguard.
Then these Anchorage and Juneau...

The real reason why I switched to MK Hero.
It does. All you have to do is not to be too unlucky.
I saw my white shell NJ and Keasarge killed Musashi in 4 shells.

my overcap is killing me
It gives you more time to sleep.
Take it or leave.

I am just getting into PvP after not doing it for uhh 3 years or so. How is my fleet? I can provide my other ships if you need them
Here are my top ships
Ah apologies, i will read
hmm it does appear just throwing UR ships into one fleet does not equal pvp meta
Is Jintsuu META still good if I did not get all her copies? I did not do OS very consistently
Should atleast 5*
Well

You fucked up current meta
oh
Congrats
She is meta changer.
and what if I got no copies?
Cope with old comps
Diff vanguard comp to be accurate.
You still use hymen or mk hero backline but with felix, shima, fortme vanguard ig
still hit aotn with six runs poofed
0 refreshes into set 3 this is fine
same lol
they avoid my lists
Set an oathed destroyer as your secretary and you'll get all of them trust
Wtf derick
We have a DeRickz on Sandy.

I've got something better
well cos if i bag, then ill be like rank 50 and not touch aotn
oh i was saying about myself sorry

o
i didnt need refreshes to avoid overcapping but
i wouldve had like 4-5 runs per reset
to wait for people to climb
2332 10/10 its fine
Wonder if challenging someone with the same exact score as you gives you a +0 or -1

Hi, do you still have any PvP attempts left? Lel
Yes
PpP
I think this is the channel for this.. now.
This is my current exercise fleet. I don't really know if I should show their equipment or not? This is basically the best that I have. Is it any good for what it is?
Read pinned doc

(NJ and Wales are probably the only ships there of any value)
Interesting, never knew about this
send dock so we can check what you need to build towards
Shall I just show all SRs/URs?
Here
quick question do you have jintsuu meta
or rather can get her to max limit break
just wondering because I don't see her there
Nope
What server are u in
Sandy
i see
U don't have that much ships actually leveled up
Yea I'm pretty off and on with this game, played since 2018
NJ - Vanguard - PoW or Hiryuu - Seattle - Shima - Juneau
Work on getting:
Anchorage - replaces Seattle
FdG - good option
Oh I am horrible with the PR ships
would also recommend getting Harbin and Kearsarge, but faction tech is horrible at face value
I only have Seattle cause I paid for the thingy
I've not gotten a single PR ship
I am going for Kearsarge
Combat Data Collection or whatever that XP things name is is so hard for me to do..
just put 3 ships from a faction, farm for a good while at oilcap stages and then call it a day
Maybe part of the reason is that I have gone from Monarch to Drake to Kearsarge lol
I've never done farming before
also wouldn't just recommend u jump thru pr ships for progress
Why tho, it's literally the way you get a lot of stuff done
I don't really have the time to I guess is the main reason
True
it surprises me when i see relative randos doing the meta well
so if i had 2559
how low is that
t15-35
idk much about washy eos, @stable dawn could answer that
wall without fortm 
prob around 30-50?
Thank the pvp spreadsheet
Thanks Chien for moving
47mins before reset, I hope I get to wall someone. get walled you cuck
That Grinch pfp is so accurate
Wooooo
Wooooo
really 1 point behind
I wasn't Yukana'd.
Without fortme it is not wall.
It is fence
step
sister

You guys could probably add shinobi attire alongside celestial body
shinobi is just celestial but instead of changing you to muse it makes you senran
the reason we added body is because it can be farmed from WA
Ah
really hoping they eventually make non-collab versions of Goldburn and Wirbel Luft
UR AA gun good now
isn't wirbel luft is identical to cosmic kicks?
no
wirbel is an hp speed item
wirbel is hp+spd; cosmic kicks is eva+spd
That fleet is wild dude
99% of the teams I fought before that were super easy so that was a rude awakening lol

Ether truly wished upon a star
no kearsarge 
does NJ kill vanguard more reliably to relevant degree?
Hymen is a more general comp than ones with kearsarge

not less general?
Uh can u elaborate im slow
isnt hiryuu kear musashi supposed to cover vs CV comps as well
Yeah
isnt that because people play against mkhero less
HYMEN is a good general comp but has problems when facing itself in a mirror matchup
because you just have to pray your torp rng is better than your opponent's
and that NJ will snipe the enemy Hiryuu before theirs snipes yours
most of the time my invuls proc after the opponent Hymen's invuls
"Most"
Yep there's sometimes a need to actually reset lol
MK Hero is just a better way to deal with Hymen.
You'll surely gain some form of advantage for your Hiryuu.
That's how Kenny can counter Hymen.

Your attack formation should be "if me attack...".
no, because of aux reasons.
tell Famine and Himmel to change theirs first, when they do I'll change mine.
You use Hiryuu mid?
yes
exactly what I just said, I won't change formation because Hiryuu is mid.
???
and that's what it looks like when you view the fleet having hiryuu mid, that's what the positioning on the screen
Hiryuu is fine in mid slot in def formation.
But I'm talking about the attack formation.
who said I'm attacking, I'm wall lord
so far never happened after the Himmel incident
You play al pvp you alr losing
as long I get to be a hindrance from people trying to EoS, I'm gucci. I can die happy :D
I'm doing gods work from preventing unwrorthy no life tryhards
well I was already walling since the day I retired, it was just a surprised that I lost doing so on my daily stuffs routine, that rarely ever happens

that means im old and outdated. Must Upgrade
imagine still using Aquila on offense and not having any Meta Jintsu and Fortune 🤮

You really eos'd.
I hadn't expected that.
Nice try on having reached R4.
Just run Kashino, very easy win on attack
How to get R1 fast?
rush on first set, screenshot your r1 and post the screenshot here
That's how you can reach r1.

sleepvp.
He's still tryharding
Ask everyone in your list to use their PvP attempts
Rinse and repeat until season ends
Ty ty
Did some mistakes along the way so could‘ve been a better score
Also congrats to R1

hmm... Interesting
There is nothing to be happy about as it's just a normal thing. 
when using Mk hero does sushi carry beaver and kear uses manjuu?
As always.
u can use manjuu kear, other options exist as well

going to adjust for that Lel
is ancho + shima + unzen viable
"viable" viable? yea
stronger than some things
viable? not really
ill stick to juneau over unzen then ig
when are you gonna try bagging @torpid shuttle 
idk i run yakuza or something like that
shinano is a massive pain
you can rush half the sets and still easily eos on washy
but i can respect the decision, this gamemode sucks
well at least you can do pve at any moment you want 
You can just don't care and still reach R1.

in the leaderboard of 'not caring', you're ranked low.....
I'm caring, carefree but not careless.

i sandbag one match a set
oh you overcapped last season
