#

ok buddy

junior trench
#

Both Sovetsky Soyuz and Masashi evaded me when I summoned on their banners, and I wasnt’t able to get Jintsuu Meta in time. I don’t know why you’re so aggressive right now. Some people just don’t always get the event ships.

#

Also, I only have Formi out of the new event ships, so I can’t test it myself.

steel coral
#

damn if only these UR banners had some sort of pity system to guarantee you get the ships

#

and it's a shame the game only gives you 3 months to obtain a meta ship that only actually takes 1 month to complete

junior trench
#

Regardless, why is this suddenly turning into passive aggressively ganging up on me? I just asked about the new ships, and I seem to have somehow triggered everyone.

trail temple
#

I'm not seeing anyone being passive aggressive towards you

finite fog

#

how long have you played

junior trench
stable dawn
#

damn

#

longer than me

junior trench
#

I took a break after that first year though, because my old tablet didn’t have enough space to keep the game downloaded.

#

So I was sporadic for a while until I got a new tablet, and I’ve been quite active ever since.

stable dawn
#

have you reached w13 yet

#

13-4 is like my goto spot for coin grinding

brazen socket
#

I think you should develop a habit of limiting how much cubes you spend on an event if you know the ships aren't worth pulling for

stable dawn
#

14-4 and 15-4 give more but take waaaay longer to do

#

one 15-4 run takes almost like 15m looool

#

a 13-4 run is like 6m

brazen socket
junior trench
stable dawn
#

trick is once on safe, use 3CV mob fleet for animation time reduction lol

#

since BBs freeze the game to fire

#

I've pretty much never ran out of gold for UR pulls ever since

#

usually I run out of oil first

#

also in general from what I've seen, high level pvpers are just people who have already done everything else in the game

#

there's basically nothing left to do except cat grind, fleet power, or pvp

junior trench
stable dawn
#

you don't grind pre-event?

junior trench
trail temple
stable dawn
#

not at all

#

I mean before a major event there's usually a dead week or 2

#

where nothing is happening

#

so my oil just piles up

#

instead of letting it hit 25k and overcap, I just burn it on 13-4 for free gold

#

and pretty much always have enough to pity next UR

junior trench
stable dawn
#

the game literally plays itself, you can set it to auto run 3x and ignore it while you do other things

#

check back once every 30m or hour even, if you're doing longer runs like 15-4

#

(or opsi)

junior trench

personally I just let the game auto while I reading books or even grind at work

keen silo
#

Thank you Serenity!

junior trench
lusty hill
#

understandable, it's hard to grind if I have to play other game too

#

that is why I only play azur lane because I'm addicted I love azur lane

zinc phoenix
#

I don’t see why yall have to drag this out

lusty hill
#

and yeah the long hours of grinding is something that probably stays forever in azur lane you'll just have to get used to it for max efficiency ShiSleep

zinc phoenix
#

As for people not having the time to grind is very common, don’t get too frustrated about that

#

Matter of fact, it’s probably the more healthy approach

lusty hill

that make me the unhealthiest then :KMShima:

next UR Tirpitz Zwei will buff BisZwei damage by 20% and the buff increase to 40% on pvp and the black hole will spawn right on the enemy and on pvp will spawn on both the vanguard and backline and will give Biszwei a preload too

narrow aspen
#

... Not technically relevant, but if I understand the mechanics of the black hole right, even if you were to spawn it on the backline, it wouldn't work

#

Have you ever seen the black hole against e.g. Hermit in her first forty seconds, when she's stationary?

This is blacker hole, it does work on the backline

:mootsooki:

who would you even put in a kms vanguard other than felix

trail temple
#

Leip does have an invul and a decent torp stat that's also buffed

#

But Felix's torp damage is much to be desired iirc

#

would still probably be below 5% win rate vs meta comps

lusty hill
#

do you guys unironically want to suggest a good kms fleet

brazen socket
#

If a person won't take no for an answer why not just give them what they are looking for

#

Better to cut now then let it grow later and make it a hassle for everyone

grim solar
#

Put Hindenburg and Mainz. Slap tea torps, pray, and hope for the best. coolshrug

#

(This is a terrible suggestion.)

lusty hill
#

i mean you can make it a cool kms fleet but there's no reason to make it good in pvp

#

like agir, emden, hindenburg

well, serenity, it's good to think sometimes

even if it doesn't amount to anything

Thinking is fun

trail temple
#

Here's something rough

#

Assumes no event only gear

#

Can swap nelson out for something else but it will ensure she barrages instantly

stable dawn
#

ah, Agir mid. Just like the pioneers did back in 2022

gloomy sand
#

why KMS of all fleets

#

💀

trail temple
#

Why did he want kms only? Only he knows

gloomy sand
#

guy got BisZwei in his (probably) first event and it shows JeanDead

trail temple
#

But like I mentioned earlier, on Washy, you can get away with anything

trail temple
gloomy sand
#

also Nelson's flag

#

Never got to the times where I could see its usage and recommendation ShimaThink

stable dawn
#

we can certainly make it more efficient

trail temple
#

Some things things to mention:

  1. I am assuming he has no event gear (there's better options otherwise)
  2. I did explicitly mention you can swap it out for something. At the very least, it has okay stats
  3. This is the most frivolous of reasons but it does ensure the barrage for fdg goes off (although proximity alone should do it anyway)
stable dawn
#

assuming you have the recent event items, could make something like this

#

seyd has pseudo preload so might as well slap a slow high damage gun on her and some dps equips

#

ideally she'd have 460mm

#

but this loadout assumes you missed Musashi

#

felix will pretty much never die early so I've moved pearl to Leipzig

#

and since the fleet's on the slow side, WNT flag is probably a superior pick here

lusty hill
#

no black torps for felix?

stable dawn
#

her torp damage is bad

lusty hill
#

kear gun seyd MutsukiHyperStare

stable dawn
#

might as well go full tank

#

something like +1600 HP with those 2 equips

#

since she has +30% aux stats

nocturne temple

hey guys
just a quick Q
is the min. diff in the pinned chart seasonal score or rank?
and how much is the min diff for +2 or +3?
and is +3 the max "bonus" u can get?

nocturne temple
#

u mean seasonal score?

trail temple
#

That's your rank score

nocturne temple
#

ok so in this scenario my rank is 978
my leftmost opponent is 876 does that mean I should get bonus?

trail temple
#

In this case, no

#

Probably not

nocturne temple
#

how come?

trail temple
#

Given the rank difference, the score between you and rank 876 most likely won't be enough to give you even a +1

nocturne temple
#

ok so it IS based on this score right? but u cant see opponent so u have to infer from rank?

trail temple
#

Correct

nocturne temple
#

i was confused which score u meant ChampyXD.
thanks

trail temple
#

Np

nocturne temple
#

so is there another chart for maximum possible bonus per rank? or do we only know the minimum?

narrow aspen
#

Ngl, the maximum can probably get can increase depending on how many times you overcap...
But assuming you don't, I'd wager the maximum (in the early season) is something like... +15? Definitely in the 10-20s range

#

The calculations of potential bonuses (unless your target is in the T100 on the leaderboard, because then you can actually check their current seasonal score) is intuitive, and you can pick up some cues with experience... although it does ultimately come down to raw luck (or, maybe, skill) at the end of the day

nocturne temple
#

oh i see. I thought there might be some hardcoded upper limit. makes sense that it depends on the difference. cheers
I guess I will pick it up with time

stable dawn
#

iirc there is a maximum per rank

#

something like double base score subtract 1 or something

#

but you will pretty much never see that except at the beginning of a season

#

(and also only if you overcap)

narrow aspen
#

Ooh, didn't know that
but yes, I try not to overcap PortDoll

keen silo
#

u will never see it unless u overcap a lot lol

nocturne temple
#

so how can I gauge how well I am doing in a season? is getting ~ +3 later in the season decent?

keen silo
#

it really depends on what “doing well” means

nocturne temple
#

good enough for AoTN BuckyPrideZoom

keen silo
#

anything above 2520 +0 is enough

finite fog
#

keep going after aotn to help your fellow eos players essexGigaChad

keen silo
#

means u can overcap like 15 exercises and hit aotn

narrow aspen
# nocturne temple good enough for AoTN <:BuckyPrideZoom:911042553221107714>

Very rough estimate based on your score in the screenshot above but, assuming you haven't been bagging... I'm thinking AotN should be possible, but you will probably need to do a rush on the reset you can first get past 2200, as I once did before I succumbed to what the PvP sheet calls "deranged madness"

nocturne temple
#

Oh interesting to hear. Tbh I overcapped a bit this season. So kinda using it as a test run to learn more pvp mechanics. I still also dont have laff2 MLB and missing a lot of pvp gear so struggle alot vs laff2 comps.

#

Short answer, you can definitely get over non-serious fleets
Against a meta fleet, you are going to die horribly

#

The basic issue I'd identify is that uh... you are largely gearing with a PvE environment in mind

#

PvP is, to put it mildly, an extremely different environment, and it is honestly difficult to encapsulate the difference in just a few words

lusty hill
#

check the pin for good pvp fleet

narrow aspen
#

But what would help as a first step would be to familiarise yourself with the format by reading the wiki page https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Exercise for the mechanics
And then, as serenity said, read the pinned PvP guide to get a better picture of the whole thing

#

Disclaimer: just reading and following the guide is not, by itself going to make you good at PvP PortDoll

Esp because if you face a fleet with enemy Fortune METAs she's just gonna vaporise your torps
Shimakaze is a torp nuker just by her very existence, mind you, but the other two are probably not going to be torp nukers in any sense of the word

Ngl, setting aside the quality of the take
I am actually kinda interested to hear your reasoning

In a fleet of musashi, zwei, vanguard. Musashi will 100% get mvp

boreal comet

There are so many factors to take into consideration

Ngl, I am 100% certain if I make just one small tweak I can guarantee Zwei steals MVP from Musashi 100% of the time PortDoll

soft echo

when was frostfall

#

yeah 2023, i started around frostfall, just missing amagi-chan

#

still sitting here with these 21 useless bps for a tashkent gun

#

frostfall was such a scam

narrow aspen
#

Indeed
The BP drop rate was the worst I have ever seen in an event

soft echo
#

i was only able to do solo hard and i got 1 bp

#

out of like 10k oil

#

rather than progressing my account

#

i wish they'd give us wildcard BPs

narrow aspen
#

Wdym by wildcard BPs
Like, wildcard for what exactly

soft echo
#

like, event bps that aren't accessible

#

if you have them that can't be used

narrow aspen
#

Ah, fair

soft echo
#

like, a way to buy 4 tashkent gun bps so i can actually fucking make this thing

narrow aspen
#

Ye, it's definitely rough when it's something hard locked like that
Only good thing is that there is precious few equipment locked in such a manner

like i just can't get drops of it

keen silo
#

no 457 is crazy

soft echo
#

i could make one if i had the UR bp

#

but im short 4 i think

#

i have some wildcards but obv not going to waste those

#

until i can actually craft something

gloomy sand
#

i'm racking my head on whether or not should i rec these gimped guns for a while or opt for using at least one triple barrel gun on any of them

soft echo
#

also i have 3 champy guns i just realized

#

its not showing in the screenshot

narrow aspen
# soft echo i could make one if i had the UR bp

457 in gear lab doesn't use UR BPs though
Although it does use the UR ordnance reports (which are themselves rare, and the SR ordnance reports which can be used to craft them aren't very common either)

soft echo
#

yeah those

gloomy sand
#

there's this one meme (?) gun on soyuz that's kinda viable but it sacrifices too much shelling dmg to fire her barrage earlier; thus i didn't elect to rec it

narrow aspen
#

Oof, unfort PortDoll

zwei*/scharn/fdg

#

yeah but she gives you two barrage shots

gloomy sand
#

german backline again

soft echo
#

flag also fires the same barrage

#

100% crit ap shot barrage

#

honestly it took a lot for me to stop using zwei because of just how good she is

gloomy sand
#

from stats alone, scharn will be folded... hard

soft echo
#

she can probably get off 2 barrages

gloomy sand
#

zwei is alright but her performance on offense is lackluster. Plus she very squishy, relatively speaking

#

fdg has the bulk to survive and deal dmg; just needs to patch up lacking stats w/ the one free aux slot

soft echo
#

also my soyuz is only level 99

gloomy sand
#

NJ can equip Manjuu, that's already a good safety net. Plus her 10s barrage can hit for good dmg, probably way more than coping on Scharn's new aux barrages

#

Well, start raising her then. Her stats, shelling and barrages are pretty great

soft echo
#

orignally i was using prince of wales, wargi, and hood, with hood being loaded up for super fast shots to ride her reload bonus and wales yeeting NJ gun at the very start of the battle

#

which was sometimes good

#

but more often it just whiffed against the vanguard

what do you mean with point 2?
also if i wait till refresh doesnt that mean i forfeit the 4 other tries as well?
basically if my list hasnt moved in 2 hours isnt it better to refresh to give the new list a chance to move?

I got weird question about PVP that I noticed... Whenever FDG does her Salvo it doesn't reach main ships of enemy... Is it my mistake or just FDG problem?

nocturne temple
#

no i mean let us say i am on 10/10 and my list hasnt moved in a while
if i wait till refresh i will have to do 5 tries quickly (meaning i cant sandbag) or overcap

or am i supposed to recognize ppl and their daily schedule MutsukiHyperStare

boreal comet

Like beth said you either refresh if you are not sure or just wait some time before the next reset to bag

bright mauve
#

I think youre supposed to link each opponent to their discords, join every server they are in and monitor their daily activity

narrow aspen
#

Earlier in the season, it's more of a toss, but the advice given in the PvP sheet of ditching your list after some time if there's no movement has so far worked reasonably well for me, on average

#

But, as Apoc correctly points out, at the end of the day, it is a "skill"-based game mode
And for that reason, it is better, as I always say, to be lucky than good PortDoll

But she IS an Alsace, like Flan (I mean she IS the nameship)

lusty hill

I told you she has preload

narrow aspen
#

Oh and uh

#

Lyon

#

I always forget about her

lusty hill

Alsace preload will have guarantee critical hit and her salvo will have debuff like vanguard and soyuz and will also disable opponent skill. Her salvo will also disarm enemy making them unable to attack similar to abyssal blackout, during this disarm allied fleet will get 10% hp shield

Wish granted, but will also cause Serenitatis to instantly lose the exercise and cannot gain any merit for 2 weeks

I still think we could use a puzzle mode. Like the monthly challenge mode, except there's a predetermined set of ships and equipment ("randomize" button would juggle from the pool) which players have to re-assemble into a winning team against the stage's boss rush.
This would have manual, a leaderboard (though there's a possibility for 0 distinctions between the top 100), be accessible to most players from the get-go, but require some familiarity with the game.
