Required for what
Would be nice if more Sandy players used proper def fleets, right now there are only a handful against who it's worth keeping an eye on the screen
its one of the last things you want +13 of imo. At least the DD ones, CL and CA guns are higher up a bit
meta too late to accommodate CA gun usage, so it's just Plyguns, the 2 UR DD guns and maybe the gold single 113mm in use atm
Omega good auxiliary
oh the +30% stuff is to some DDs
How important are +13 aux guns for BBs?
Lower prio than frontliner torps, backliner main guns and auxes for both sides

Ig I'll try climbing the ladder next season
Not having JintsuuM mlb sucks but at least I can optimize snowmen comp
Now I just need to collect more gold plane plates amd wait for Fritz Rumey's tests before investing in fox wall
Why did Felix drop off so hard from Snowmen? I dont have Jintsuu so I'm guessing Shima is my best option?
prowler basically counters her
the original idea is alsace would nuke eldy to super low health and felix would finish her off
that's basically a thing of the past now
Gotcha thank you. I was running Seyd+Felix but I guess I'll switch to Alsace+Shima now
ye laff2 shima eldy is a pretty good vg setup if you don't have jintm
Well I enjoyed Seyd's 15 minutes of fame for a while at least
I'm sure she'll be back again
Z52 is my only hope, she has a lot of interesting things
Though I'm trash at evaluating ships, and even less for PVP so probably won't work out

well, you can still enjoy her without any other KMS ship y'know
seyd + any frontline
though you can go forward with alsace, imo she's easier to gear up for
Alsace seems like a good bet I think, I'm doing terrible against the jintsu/alsace currently
I usually just reset till somehow I sink their backlines first before jintuu dies
guys I have a question for u 
what gear would be best for golden hind in pvp
dont ask why golden hind
a coffin
So i'm 36 points behind the number 1 in my server,i should still be able to get admiral,right ?
what server
Avroran huh...
How many exercises do you have left?
Do the serenity strats
Suffering from success, it seems that if I don’t mess up early it seems nigh impossible to get good scores without taking only 9s because you don’t get lower ranks
Too soon for the serenity strats
just dont rush 
2*12 pounders & sail+Oranges+prowler
What if prowler on eldridge?
Then whatever you've got ... Lol
I guess evasion aux?
I run a full Tempesta defense. I can see what I'm using I suppose
Thanks
Not saying that's best. Just gear I didn't mind wasting on defense
Yeah I see
Well I guess we can always experiment and see 
just make her the beaver and pearl holder
I kept to the theme. Plus good gear would be a waste on Tempesta
Who's your third backliner?
It is for my guild mate
He uses sushi alsace fritz

I guess beaver works
Pearl on alsace
And wnt on off flag sushi?
I wouldn't recommend hind for offense, but whatever works for him
Yeah I told him that much
The fleet was non-negotiable 
let a man play the game as he wishes
No I need to control every single decision he makes
Mind control powers activate


0 but i'm 36 points behind n°1
Should still good for admiral,no ?
Maybe
That gap's going to get bigger
And you're on Avrora too
you're going to face stiff competition later on
for now, try to get bonuses and not overcap your exercises
Admiral is comfy, getting anvy could be challenging
Anvy is admiral of the navy, right ?
Yea admiral of the anvy
5 challenges with +0 is 50 points so you could get that as long as you get your hits in early
Its not impossible but you can't fall much further behind
tldr challenge someone who has a lot more points than you
Do i need to save up my hits until going to bed ?
You want your leftmost opponent to have spent their attempts before attacking them essentially. If they spend early, you can spend early and repeat
Some opponents attack immediately, some wait until 15m before reset, its a mixed bag
Let people do thw serenity strats
well the good thing about AoTN, from like the 1k people who spend all their exercise with care:
- The rushers gonna spend all their attempts to get aotn first, and there's a good chance they stop doing exercise entirely after then
- The baggers (EoS/tryharders) gonna spend like 5 max until like the very last day, since lower position grants more chances to bonus out when the opponent moves
Judging from this, if at any point in time before AoTN day you can reach top 10 with all your attempts, keep 5 attempts and
chase AoTN with your 10 attempts about 2 or 3 reset after the AoTN reset and you'll almost be guaranteed AoTN
well idk though if you can't reach top 10 before aotn day with all atempts
This is also assuming pvp players can only be divided into AoTN rushers and EoS baggers, if there's enough people who rushed AoTN and still playing (trying to get as much points as possible) even though they know they can't reach EoS leaderboard, top 10 will be very difficult
you forgot the serenity strats user
:serenity:
hanz is special but you guys aren't ready to admit it yet
just like when I said falulu is cooking and you guys make fun of me and yet in the end I was right
I'm 26 points rn behind R10 so i think i'm gonna use my 5 hits when the next reset attempts happen then save up my 10 hits tomorrow until the reset at 7pm utc iirc
What day does AotN become available?
soonest is Day 12 2nd set of the season
so what's next, what should we add to mislead help pvpers now that you are right 100% of the time even with 0 testing?

Sounds like a great idea
I love irony
As far as PVP goes.. how does Napoli at Dev 30 compare to Anchorage at Fate Sim V? Just finished Napoli/PR 7 today 
Worse, she is heavy armour, doesn't have invul and the smokescreen has fixed timing rather than having a flexible timing (fixed to Anchorage's torps)
Thnx
the main issue isn't even the smokescreen as much as the lack of invuln
you can maybe cope with her using Prowler

who's this
Snipe him
The more I am here the more familiar names become
somebody who used to be with amagi scene
guild leader
eternal sleep 
RIP Deathkt
nntktt
definitely sad

He left on April Fool's, because he certainly made fools out of everyone
well I'll just refresh since I can't beat oathed mintsuu without reset
also bonus can be +2??
why nobody ever mentioned this
hopefully I can eos
surely you noticed early season when you were getting +6 bonus per 1 attack
I honestly didn't even notice it because I didn't remember the +s
I only know +10 at 1250 lol, early season I can get like +40s
or was it 50s or 60
it's 1050 btw
I also noticed there's just no way to see ur opponents score if they are not on the leaderboard
Maybe I should try dm-ing them to check their score
Yes you have to guess
Collusion lmao
wait is it even allowed?
pretty sure that violates ToS lol
really though? is it just not friends helping friends
p2w 
pls help me get onto leaderboard ahh
honestly it's whatever, I'm not kenny
My points aren't much but it's honest work
I tried my best by checking like 4 times an hour too
Your should be 1601 rn, so pace lead has +32 and T10 has +15/+13 on you, so just get as many +2 sets as possible, because most of us are getting +1 sets
Not really because as you climb you will also get less bonus
Makes sense, can't realy get bonus in the first place if you are the lead
and why need bonus if you're in the lead
Also pace lead is almost certainly hitting a limit on how many people he can bonus off from
Because everyone else is getting bonus, so to stay in the lead you need a bonus yourself
but you are not in the lead if you can bonus
That's based on other people movement
just guess on their points based off rank and the score of t100
that definitely helps to avoid false positive
the payment part, not the friends part.
That would constitute RMT

damn real collusion moment, unfortunate
try to play legit
give it a feel of what pvp feels like later on
lose your sanity later on
me except i lost my sanity in 2 pvp seasons and quit
nice i was looking for this info everywhere
btw anyone know how to find someone score ? under 100s cannot see the score
hence cannot see will get bonus or not
Check LB what is the score?
its only until 100 haha
for 101 so on no clue 🤣
Like what's the score for T100?
Top 100 score rn is 1631, so 200+ score certainly not bonus
i see so estimation thankss
for fighting same score will get no bonus +0
only fight less score will get minus -1/-n right?
yes
even if you are rank 100 and they are rank 101, as long as you both have the same score it'll be +0
i see thanks
i was thinking its based rank diff, until read the excel and got here
Got greedy and lost an exercise. Am I cooked for AotN? 32 points behind 1st now
you can make aotn with up to like 12ish total losses/overcaps
but you'll have to do it at the beginning of a set some time after 2200, like the following day's set 1 or 2
Do the serenity strats
This is just getting worse and worse with refreshes not giving lower ranks
Too soon for the serenity strats
Almost like going to 0 kills your total score
Apparently as a 1620, I can attack 1754 and gain +3 bonus
lol that’s huge, but yeah 108 diff is +3
does that mean 143 diff is +4
how do I turn notification to reaction
I think this person has a preference....
aurora be like
Sandy, actually

Nah, it's gph joke where aurora just use pink fleets all the time
exactly that too, only duke of york is not in her fleet 
Pinkerton?
aoste if he liked pink haired girls:
who's aurora
Still a better player than Serenity
who's aoste
me


who's
dr aoste, d1 guy who researches AI n shit and creates the sirens to compete with and complement shipgirls on the field of battle
and later, after og timeline's big disaster with the levithans they were ordered by aoste to carry out the 10k years of testing to find a way to kill and defeat the levithans
what type of meta fleet do the people at the top run lmao
what busted ass combo do that have

oh I thought you meant @light crystal

how's it going old man
What's with the ntr react lol
What
please move, I need the 1 bonus
you need to ping the person

got it

immortalized; merry xmas 
Who should I have in my vanguard for pvp? Fortune, Juneau and who?
Check the pins
Now that you guys put it there it's not as funny anymore
I will stop using that term
ah so that's what serenity strats mean
Don't do that strats
Consider getting better at pvp

ain't no way, it's literally named after you
i have strats too, play for 2 seasons and then quit forever
I convinced and fooled everyone into thinking that strats was named after me
It was just called rushing before then
Foxwall real?
depends on the server you're in but we have like atleast 10 people in Avrora built it. a couple of rushers and the rest were EoSers 
why is foxwall good for defense? because they wall off T0 fleets?
coz it destroys backline quite easily, it will purely depend on your vanguard if it will survive long enough.
I just don't get it why attacking with it is less win rate than defending with it
is the attacker advantage not applied in 3 CV?
it's about the length of the fight, not the winrate
I can see how that's useful against people who likes to attack last minute
it's because foxwall has the unique ability to lose a 3v1 against a single laffey II
imagine this, you're fighting a GoT fleet. You've already nuked their backline, killed their eldy, and killed their jintm
your 3CV backline is full HP.
The enemy laffey II kills your laffey II and wins the vanguard fight then reaches your CVs.
Your CVs cannot kill her.
2 full minutes pass.
Laffey II has killed all of your full health CVs by herself.
You lose.
Yea now I understand, the fleet is destined to lose only in 2 minutes+, so good for defender to avoid attacker who start doing their set 5 minutes before reset, but also useless for attacker as they will most likely always lose
It's also dogwater on attack against any decently geared GoT setup. You basically have to gamble the enemy fleet's eldy doesn't proc and dies early so you can kill their vg before their vg AND backline kills yours
The odds are stacked against you because the enemy BBs cannot target your stealthed CVs, so will aim at your vg by default
good luck dodging a soyuz barrage into a musashi lighting storm
and that's assuming alsace hasn't just burned you to death too
there is currently no vg setup that can stall hard enough to survive this consistently
you just have to get lucky with eldy
there's also the caveat that if such a vanguard fleet does exist, your opponent will more than likely also be running it. So the point is moot.
It is a quest of futility

Also due to eldy rng, 3CV is not a guaranteed wall on defense either. If your opponent gets lucky they will actually kill you faster than a GoT mirror matchup because CVs are inherently squishier than BBs.
TL;DR the entire meta is gambling
you don't even need a good fleet anymore. You just need to get lucky
sopranos 
there was a time long ago where we ran nagato amagi warkai
and warspite always aimed at the backliner opposite to herself so it was a pretty even and predictable matchup every fight
unthinkable in today's world
found a video. Not the exact comp we used but a pretty neat demonstration
Shes Ready to smite some IJNs!
5 years ago

I miss warspite meta
having to ocassionaly swap her position making it seems like pvp is a strategic game mode
unlike today pvp where I just hit the fight button and win
I thought you joined in 2021 wtf
warspite was out of the meta the moment CV stealth came out in 2020
I joined at the beginning 2022

well back then I don't have mafia so warspite is the best thing I have
back when manjuu NJ was still a meme
now NJ gets one shot at full health by soyuz
skill based gamemode
I remember you guys put it on the sheet after I pointed out that manjuu on nj is real meta
next you'll say bis2 has actually been good all along and it was a psyop to make her bad by the CIA

well there was time where zwei was actually good just not the best comp
you lost to a zwei fleet

her only real win condition on defense was black hole rng lol
skill based game mode
just get lucky
Damn. BBs used HE main guns back then?
how is namagiryuu even meta 
we should have a throwback event where everyone use old meta and pretend it's 2019 pvp
azur lane classic 6v6
I don't think there was anything better. PR2 and 457 weren't out yet
from an observer's perspective, IJN synergy was good. Nagato lasted about 2-3 years of relevance, give or take
though i generally won't comment about previous meta fleets that I wasn't able to experience
Stuff like twin 410? I didn't expect triples were used in that time according to that video
before PR2 there were no rainbow ships and most gear came from boxes or event drops.
It was so long ago HPFCR was locked to one event: Fallen Wings. It wasn't super easy to obtain like it is today and veteran players only had one.
There was no gear lab
There was no preload
There was also no 100% barrage chance. Highest was like 70
Jintsuu and Noshiro weren't even out yet
there was no torpmemes

Regarding the FoxWall... why not replace one of the CVs with Fritz, who CAN kill Laffey 2?
top 10 lies in anime history
Idk if fighter are that good to kill backlines, the 4 is locked to fighter
also, crash damage for la-9 is 156, while crash damage for wyvern is 450
may ironically be more paper than akagi or hiryuu in theory, also fritz doesn't benefit that much from the other 2 CV's buffs
no fast load nor invuln... not much high hopes for her viability
can she? 🧐
You had JB, but she was garbage and locked to her gun
Might be worth some experimentation. If both her guns can reach the backline, she may work
Fritz ghost CA gun can reach backline but can't fire and the Laffey II right in front of her, and a 1 Plymouth gun mount at 100% Eff is going to do next to nothing to a Laffey II, Nakhimov ghost gun is about as strong
@shell raft can you disarm please
You could try Hiryuu Meta which has a barrage and damage reduction ig?
why can't fire? not working on pvp?
Range is 120-200
So when enemy Laffey comes close to backline it can't actually fire
oh to the laffii, I thought to the backline
also does the range means fritz can fire ca gun at enemy musashi?
sounds pretty goofy
Can fire to opposite backline I believe

So, I am currently running Mafia (because I am missing a lot of meta ships, and its fairly consistant): NJ, Aquila, VV, Anchorage, Shima, Duca.
What I am wondering is if it is an upgrade to swap out VV for Musashi, and Duca for Z52? Or should I stick with Mafia until I get Eldys retro equipment?
I do not have Jinstuu META, OR laffey 2, or the upgrade for Eldy. Also missing Soyuz, Alsace, Vamguard, and Bis Zwei
Musashi, NJ, FDG
Ancho, Shima, Juneau Kai/Harbin
The above comp(MILF) could be an option; its on the Budget Fleets section -- Recent Event Fleets.
or Yakuza - pretty straight forward imo coming from Mafia, only 2 ships will be changed VV and Duca in exchange for Musashi and Harbin.
You could try Z52 as 3rd, she's fairly new 
Would have to, my Harbin is only dev 5. I do have Juneau kai maxed out
nice, there's your pearl user 
gearing because i felt like it. also merry christmas to you
assuming hindenburg gun, if not then drake gun is fine. aa loadout is intentionally on the cheap side, if you got 1-2 ur aa then use that on ancho, then juneau
musashi w/ beaver because you don't want wnt active, that just cripples you. wnt instead goes on fdg for the stats
ancho uses prowler, you want her to hold on as long as she can against jintm's torp punishment without manjuu on her
shima with double +trp auxes, now that the pearl is on juneau
if you want to see what other gear you can equip due to a lack of gear, then do consult the pvp sheet, workable alternatives are present there
+13s are nice, and it is rec'd to +13 the more impactful gear first. didn't bother putting the enhance lvls because i'm about to sleep
I have most of this +13 already
ah, aight you're going to be fine for now
while waiting for the current meta ships to rerun, do look out for future ships and gear, good chance they're going to be pvp meta or usable before you catch up
Ok, all ships are geared and oathed as you suggested. About to test now
Got 2 +1s in my set of 5. Seems to be working decently well
you'd unironically be better off running Independence (Retrofit) with HVAR + Spearfish and coping on the rockets not whiffing to kill her.
Fritz's gun meme is basically a slightly better Odin, and you can see how much use she has gotten in pvp history
there's also the serious issue of dropping the 3rd IJN member removing Shinano buffs + dropping Akagi/Kaga --> lose Amagi 50% load time reduction
as that is the core of why 3CV even works at all
you can't just put out 3 random carriers and assume it will wall someone unless it's serenity
it's the unique interaction between these 3 that makes the comp viable

I become afraid to leave set last minute because of foxwall
Kashino wall stall even better
do better next time
why aren't people moving 
LMFAOOOOOOOO
Offline for Christmas
this fleet so fuckin funny
how long does that took
The issue with this comp is that there’s nothing to kill Laffey
As long as Laffey is alive after the frontline fight, you would win
Which is why you may need to switch out Shinano for someone else

I have an idea.
Switch Shinano out to Musashi to keep the IJN synergy and because she's a big fox.
Switch Akagi out for Alsace. Anyway she launches early and often has a rocket plane to kill vg, why not just use Alsace's preload with an HE gun to smack the vanguard even harder?
And lastly, I say we replace Amagi with Soyuz because her nuke barrage is hitscan and is way faster than any plane. Plus it can still hit unrevealed CVs using splash damage.

instead of replacing ships in your fleet, get the other guy to replace his fleet


this is brilliant, this could even be a real fleet!
put it on the tier list!
Best idea to be honest
Why spend effort when others can spend effort to your advantage
is this Jimmy?
No, he's a qt
No Jimmy is playing in JP server
juwumy
god of ex
for amagi
is there people in amagi closest to 209 rank in exercise? what are your scroes
well that's not good
I grabbed bonus 6 times today but it seems like I can't get any anymore
Just wait, someone will move probably, maint set
Fr, let someone else think for you before you take an L and hurt yourself
foxwall be like
Real, can wipeout your backline
wait there's no inappropriate names there right?
why the laffey hands
Correct, read the name lol
after 12 resets, I finally got a bonus on Kirito265's fully-oathed-GoT-standard fleet
kaya isn't using a proper foxwall
doesn't get load reduction from akagi
using stall vg instead of standard or stallter
(also because Hiryuu is not a fox)
bnuuy
what does bunny skin nano count as?
Same as how you count Musashi
Not
His fleet only took me 1 try and 30 seconds to defeat him but also gave me a +2
I ran into someone using proper foxwall but they used Fortune Meta rather than stall fleet, so I used ARSE and rolled them over in 45 sec
immoral science
everything rolls over fortune META
there's a reason she's not in any of the recommended vanguards
anymore
See I’m still convinced that Amagi+ Akagi are enough to take out the backline (at least I know they are on attack) and swapping Nano for Alsace gives a way to kill the VG. I was also thinking isn’t straight up fox wall easily countered by one Aquilla?
True, IIRC it was LaffeyII/Eldridge/Fortune Meta
any CV-focused fleet gets countered by having decent enough AA
HOW, HOW do you lose to Shiburin's fleet, bro? Like, it's ACTUALLY the DOGWATER fleet, man. Legit ZERO comms, no shot, dude!
I mean most of the reason they’re good is because they stay unrevealed so BBs fire a lot of wasted shots into the VG right? So wouldn’t just one preloaded airstrike fix that issue?
Plus it’s not like Aquila doesn’t do dmg
And it almost guarantees that eld procs at start so ur BBs don’t shoot invuln
the 2 ways you fix the issue is either
- reveal the CVs, removing their ability to hide
- have enough AA to where they do no dmg
So yeah I feel like just switching out Alsace for Aquila would be a lot easier and make the fights quicker
I'd rather just swap 1 piece of gear than an entire ship
UR AA on the backliners, pog
soyuz gets so much HIT buff she could unironically run UR AA
But wouldn’t having one geared shop you can just swap better then swapping all the gear before+after fights
Too much effort
I'm talking about swapping 1 piece of gear 1 time and leaving it
instead of swapping out a ship for 1 fight and then haivng to swap it back out for the next
I mean I never reset against foxwall with non-oathed shimakaze standard, how can you guys with oath mintsuu have a problem
Tbh though with being in Sandy I haven’t run into a single Fox stall yet (I only know Nekosogi has it and my irl friend but haven’t rolled them this season) and my friend hasn’t rolled me to tell me how it is against it so kinda sucks
I didn't lost
Amagi has no proper Foxwall fleet
maybe they are not in T100
Yo
being walled is ACTUALLY a HARD L, lil bro
Like, no cap, you're just DONE, man
Closest is Juwumy, running Bayard
proper Foxwalls in general are hard to come by because you need to have both the proper ships and the proper gear
most people are using their Amagis and Shinanos in PvE
so the end result is I have encountered a fair number of Foxwall imitations that have converging torps

and i dont think many have +13 wyverns
yeah +13 wyvern itself is a niche thing used really only for w15
+13 wyvern bad 🗣️
hard campaign content lol
See that’s one of the issues I have with running fox wall is I don’t wanna change gear all the time and trying to one shot TaihouM with 3 BBs is difficult
Why are you talking like that
:ranchSexCalm:
Anyway there's no shame in struggling against a stronger opponent
What's shameful is hiding the fact if you do
That's why I always choose to be an honest and fair player
YO, CHAT, LOOK AT THIS GUY, DUDE. He’s out here tryna save face, acting like he’s clean, but bro LITERALLY just admitted to losing to Shiburin, man. Like, HELLO?! That’s ACTUAL contradiction vibes, dude. AND DON’T EVEN get me started on the time he was scheming with @plucky pawn, bro. FAIR? FAIR MY ASS, DUDE!


Bruh, let it be KNOWN, this right here? This is PEAK Serenity strats, no cap. Like, ACTUALLY built diff, bro. Straight L vibes, frfr
@brazen socket
what do we have here
Ong!
Holy shit its a christmas miracle
This just keeps getting harder and harder, I don’t think I’m even getting many extra points each day yet I keep getting closer to rank 1 with more refreshes
Guess I’m waking up early again
rushing 
@hybrid agate a disarm would be much appreciated 
Idk, I don’t feel like I’m rushing anything, just really high rank with a lot of exercises still
And always running out of resets
Why aren't you at 5/10, of course if you keep rushing you'll run out of score
Freaking wall on Sandy...
Hey yeah that guy and my irl friend and myself are the only ones I’ve seen with it and I really wanna test it, but not ran into either of the 2 sadly
Because I like to sleep
Ok, everyone come get your bonus off me
ohey it's me

Prayging this is a good sign for my first real AOTN attempt tomorrow
Nard is my alt
Idk how everyone doesn't manage to consistently fuck up while at work
alarm tech
ah, you can't do the first aotn rush to 2200
for now, conserve enough attempts to rush to 2230~ after that set
I want to thank Amagi bot in the meta server for finally getting a clean run
Ya i know, it should be the 6pm tomorrow right?
should be tomorrow, yes
Don't be a serenity
I guess you could say you’re… silent but deadly 
idk tbh I actually overcapped 7 exercises overall
don't worry cause you can get better than my personal eos score as a casual 
well why can't i talk about pvp 
I just think it's odd you give a lot of advice
(much of which may not necessarily be correct)
but i don't give advice 

giving incorrect advice mentioned 🗣️
what is fybredoggo saying 🗣️
not the sharpest tool in the shed 🗣️

don't tell me you need laevii to disarm too

oh you are nard

Would you be surprised?
oathed fleets scare serenity
NU fleets scare Serenity too
what's NU
can't wait to cockblock AOTN attempters tomorrow <3


time to raise my 6 wyverns to +13
how many rushers do we even have usually?
Quite a lot, can't really determine exact number though
How to beat foxwall
be better at the game

use any of the Tier 0/1 fleets, it would usually work, but your Vanguard needs to survive. The standard variant is usually what's recommended.
My backline is always the first to sink🙂
the shimakaze standard is also winnable
Like uhh laf2 eld smkz?
yeah if you don't have mintsuu ofc
I think brawl or felix is also good since you just need to win the vanguard battle
also how is mog doing against foxwall, can mog stab the CVs?
I haven't try that
Or maybe someone has?
I see mogador in pvp a lot but I don't know what she even does
Drag your Laffey and Eldridge to their early deaths
not that ideal during climb lol, just keep using substandard. i've tried both and they were not up to standard

this is normal when fighting foxwall, just get lucky with Eldridge proc they say.
or preload the enemy vanguard to death so you can push to the CV backline
So what's the strat for AOTN reset? I'm down a few points from top spot like 6 or 7, is it better for me to rush within the first second or wait a few minutes?
how much points and attempts you have left? also, are you just going for AotN?
I'm just going for AOTN. 3 attempts ledt for this reset at 2103 points, kinda low i think
I have no idea what the nuances of PVP are i just want the title and some extra merit lol
Guys would this make sense for pvp gear 
you can bag the next set (Set 2) or just use the 3 to avoid further minus, and rush the first seconds of the final set of the day(Set 3) til you get aotn
flap, wyvern, ply gun, expensive gears
Oh is ply gun actually better?
Is the spread not bad? 
And for the planes yeah this is just placeholder
Ofc wyv would be better 
Also is the aux fine? 
yes, slightly better range
not sure about aux, but ok if plane focused
Is there any point to get AotN this current set? I have more then enough exercises to reach over 2200
merit 
How does that give more merit?
bonus merit during aotn fights
obviously 2500 merit for reaching aotn + 100 merit for victory while being aotn
So it would be better to save them up and just farm AotN next set then?
probably
what's the best gear skin for z52 for pvp
Bombard me with snails, I finally made it
Thanks for the help guys I had no idea wtf I was doing
Thanks for the help everyone. First AotN

Now back to constantly overcapping at work
don't let your work negatively affect your pvp
Thanks for the help everyone, first time AoTN too

oh I was wondering who Viru was as I climbed last set
"never seen this guy before"

congrats
I've been noticed and feel blessed
is amagi especially hard to EOS
Somewhat hard yes, there are more than 10 baggers
would the normal bagging strats and not overcapping bring me at least top 20?
Yes it should
i feel overcaping is my biggest enemy
just make sure to 5/10 before every reset
make an alarm if you have to
Just keep in mind that spread is important the further the distance gets
overcapping is everyone's biggest enemy.
Tbh in a way pvp battles are very much like actual naval battles in that as deadly as the enemy fleet is, the common (and ultimately deadlier) enemy is actually the ocean itself.
that said, time to start prepping my fleets
rly wnna make eos this season
now that im on break id have more time
lmao
I overcapped like 10 this season, but luckily I bonus a lot
aotning while overcaped is honestly impressive
well tbh I have 100% bag uptime, I got bonus like +9 or +10 each day due to the overcap pushing me down
I overcapped because I turned off my noon alarm shortly after waking up
yea I get like 3 bonus each set because of bagging, sometimes +2
I think luck because I checked like every 15 minutes or so
and only attack when I get bonus, otherwise I wait
I spend the rest of my attacks like 5 minutes before reset
idk if I would ever be attempting EoS after this tbh
i have nothing to do so eos it is
yea same, but bonuses never come for some cursed reason
it is so difficult not overcapping with my strat since I literally leave my attacks last if nobody moved
do im stuck with +0s a lot of sets
i leave my atttacks at 10/10 for most of the sets
fybre 2600? 
Nah I think I'll quit, can't keep up with like checking every 15 minutes
I felt so pathetic
i dont rly check that much
just check as much as possible, you want to immediately get the bonus as soon as they move, otherwise everybody moved already
I also have the risk with my totality strategy, especially if my attack on last minute is against the oathed GoT standard, I have to reset multiple times cause I lose like 95% of the time
you use the substandard?
I don't have mintsuu 
i dont lose tho
idk why
idk how people are winning against oathed GoT standard truly
i do have a oatheed musashi with +13 everything
some use 3 CVs and still managed win
I never reset against 3 CV (maybe they are not fully equipped)
with totality checking every 10-11 minutes and moving your schedule for any other productive task to the bin, you can get the most possible bonus you can get that day without any reset or complicated probability calculation of whether somebody will move during a time frame.
The only reason you can fail your bonus if all 4 of the list do all of their exercise sets 5 minutes before reset
I am confident if I didn't overcap 3 each time noon comes, I could've 2800 or something
i dont think anyone made 2800
oh what was it again, 2600
yea
also just a theory but when one of the people in the bag queue overcap, everyone else's expected EoS result will get a bit lower
2800 
No no I mean 2600
maybe 2800 one day will be possible if everyone just do their sets optimally and not overcap
the problem is we have rusher who do all of their sets at once and not letting multiple people get bonus multiple times
whats the display order for these screens?
W I N?
gg no wonder you never lost
i was also blessed with good rng those fights lol
i had to reset the most for fox wall
Only need to check every 15 min first hour, the rest no need to be repetitive
that's early season
if you're decent pace late season you check twice.
Once when the set begins
once when the set ends and you have to move
if you're extra lazy you can turn that into a single check action
don't forget to screenshot the ranks, so when you log in you can check who moved
but my pace ass -35, so I have to keep rechecking
why are you spending so much effort just for aotn

if you can't make eos might as well just zero out early and get the etxra merit
just check twice a set 
how many times did you overcap
amagi if you overcap even one, it's over
2 if you're super high pace
like 2 once, and then 3, and then 2, and today 2
me thinking all the bonus I get can save me
apparently not
the frequency of bonuses don't increase at lower ranks
the magnitude does but a single lost exercise is basically -10
you're just with the other overcappers who missed the same amount of exercises as you
who have the same number of exercises left as everyone else
so if you've lost like 10+ that's over 100 points to make up
but it can increase if you keep checking
there are just over 2 days left in the season
and they don't play as seriously either
even if you get a ridiculous +20 per day,, your final finish will be in the low-mid 2570s
which for Amagi is like R20 or so
maybe even R30
usually around 17 or below these days
you can't make people move by checking
but you can grab it as soon as they move
also it's mathematically impossible for you to eos right now
yeah
yeah but your next list will most likely be people that moved and are already at 0
too many overcaps, you're right
that's just how low pace gaming is
really? the game choose those who already exhausted their set?
no, i'm saying there's a lot more players who already used or won't use their attempts
but like checking only twice means you can only get 2 bonus at max, and maybe some other from rerolling if you're lucky
you'll only get 2 at max at this moment
but if you really wanted to, you can just space them out a bit
maybe every hour or so
cause I legit thought that what I was doing was fine since I assumed everybody's doing the same thing
Did I just excessively check and fail
well hopefully nobody remembers this
yeah i don't think anyone does every 15 min
well yeah I am absolutely clown
to justify what I was doing, on this moment I never overcap and only check like twice a set, but for some reason I am still behind. That's why I decided to get as much bonus as possible by checking every 10 minutes
(or maybe something went wrong and I couldn't remember)
checking often is only somewhat viable before 1050 anyways
after that, you just survive
and my bonus went from at least 3/15 to almost 8/15 on average
Yeah should have done that earlier lol
is 2513 good score?
Depend on the server
magi
not t100
generally speaking, Amagi's t100 EoS score is 2520, give or take around 5 pts
avrora built different, they scores mimimum is around 2535 on a good season
built different like 15 diff 
but damn ok, not even gonna make it to top 100 lol, time to disarm
thx info
time to be sane
How big of a disadvantage am I at using this comp instead of jintsuuM variation
i mean, won't people in high rank keep retiring till they win anyway?
I mean I have no oath and it is winnable against the best oath standard, just need a lot reset. Maybe with yours you can have less reset
oaths is important, gotta show em
6% less rld might mean the enemy kills you before you do salvo
Grinding affinity 💀
imagine oathing for pvp 💀
imagine having no soyuz and laffey2
also ngl though little enty's pvp kinda hard, everybody in the top using the stall got
idk, i am amagi
feels like
>
> the rest ||cause I only have account on those||
Wait until you see Avrora 

Not that bad
We used to start at 2550+
They say that ignorance is bliss
^For your perusal
looks like Amagi's EoS, I noticed Juwumy, IzaKaya, and Borgar
what does this even mean, send top 100?
ok ok hold on
I don't think Izakaya is bagging this season
you probably could've just asked NArd or Ari lol

I am definitely not, I don't have level 1 max skill something something
Problem is I can’t do preload trip
Memes
Missing 460s and jintsuu
Torp
If you can dodge
Lvl 1 benson is a better kazagumo
And lvl 1 Helena is best
Also this doesn’t sound PvP 💀
Richelieu (Kear Gun), Alsace (Triple UR 406mm/Twin 406mm HE), Soyuz (Twin 406mm Mk 4) and Shimakaze are good enough for preload memes, basically ARSE comp + substandard
are those preload pvp comps actually work? like winnable with enough resets
laffey says no
It worked against everyone except those with maxed def fleet (aka correct full +13 gear and oathed)
you missed the best times to use shima against
nowadays you're going to gamble with jintm+shima against eldridge
there was a brief time where we ran JintM Shima Harbin with Yakuza
funnest meta tbh. A win was like 10-15s and I could do 5 in 2.5m on the regular

then people discovered Fortune META
fortune meta was horrible
goddamn it
i still remember my torps getting slashed by their fortm while mine didn't slash theirs
ah yes "scissors"
one inevitably tops the other
fortm's slash happened as fast as she fired her gun lol
once she dropped below 50% HP
her AoA barrage became the slash
augments only slash once or twice the entire fight

Given how fast Fortune Meta died against Alsace wonder why nobody did Richelieu + Aggro (especially when Laffey II came out), lower success rate but only 1 shell from Richelieu needs to hit vanguard and Fortune Meta goes kaboom
Probably cuz people don't bother testing non UR ship
nah it's because you still had to deal with Hiryuu
mgm+2 and frail
also soyuz didn't exist yet
almost gonna go a full year without a new meta changing ship
smh, eos soon. where my yamato at
we got soyuz and amagi this year
amagi is meta, wut
wdym eldy retro was pretty recent
august
yes
Bruh Alsace was this year too. 
alsus

alsace, soyuz, eldridge retrofit
is it ok if i post what i have and ask for the best team for pvp?
The Google Doc in the pins goes over the best fleets in the current meta.
For PvP
Where did all these foxwalls come from
Is this what kind of hell EOSers go through twice a month?
As they say, misery loves company
who's misery?
oh the misery, everybody wants to be my enemies.
-imagine dragons
what goes around comes around
Is Z52 good for PvP?
Compared to other DD?
I saw a lot of the likes of Shimakaze, Laffey II, Mogador, Eldridge Retro or Yukikaze but I wonder if Z52 is good for it too?
z52 has stiff competition
Why is that?
@lusty hill ty for bonuse 
is this the last EoS set?
last set before nube year

Well, ended at 2525, doing no bagging and only 1 overcap this season. not too awful bad for Sandy
I have 7 more, and I don't see any amagis got 2600+ yet, so there's still lots of bonus 
I’m on track for 2605
I'm on track for 2800
absolutely meta changing, we have laffii, soyuz, alsace, eldridge retro
Mafia 
high eos guys finish <5m before reset
how are things going on your end borgar

no point
how to see previous leaderboard again?
that's the fun part, you don't. Just cope some community members snapshot it
so if someone finish their set in the last 30s nobody's gonna record it 
currently the unknown eneity known as ANSON does it pretty consistently for us
nah, you don't understand how late some people snapshot lol
woah there's some snapshot tech
hes not in pvp server
unless im tripping
oh yea so, whats the anson pvp lore
anson died for our sins
interesting

2459 finish in lil enty with 15 overcaps 




I mean nard is also playing on amagi and lil enty
how good is 2536 finish?
23 bonus 
you're fuckin t50
You're a year late
Whoever said that rushing on the first set is a good strats must be trolling
Its your choice to do so lol
idk I just attack when I see bonus


that's only 28 different 
you almost got it, you wait for bonus before you move during this early rush
refresh if you don't get a mover and wait again
yeah don't rush immediately, but still finish early overall for like low 140s
damn I only got 136
unfortunate
dumbass lmao. get a mover or two
Shouldn't move from 1/10 to 0/10 on first day then
Damn this guy must be cheating 
:serenity:
Nobody got a screenshot of the season for Sandy? Wanna know where I ended
Nowhere of any significance
Cool, still wanna know though
We only look at top 10. If you're not there, you're nowhere of any significance
Again that’s cool and I’m really happy for you that’s the case, I’d still just like to see the top 100
Well, nobody took screenshots of EoS Top 100, if you haven't deduced that yet
I got told 2 seasons I go they did and been sent top 100 for that and last 1 so

AFAIK not for this season
They might do top 100 for good PvP servers. Not for us poor plebs on Sandy though
Do we win something if we reach Top 100 EOS? 
FYI that was 3 seasons ago, but you could wait a while for it to come out
Well then I’ve had 3 seasons where people have sent it then 
You should probably just screenshot it yourself, wait until the timer shows 10-15sec to reset then open the leaderboard and scroll to where you are placed if you want to look at the final rankings yourself
If only did top 10 then can I at least see that?
also do people intentionally pause battle so they finish at the last 10s
idk if it's pinned here but the link is somewhere in the sheet's credits section iirc















you
