slow totem
alpine finch
#

needs better skins

#

i don't rly like her oath skin

slow totem
#

Santaprise is coming~

#

If you don’t like that either then rip

alpine finch
#

i want the Eldridge one too

#

rip wallet

coral wren
#

fml thats like 1700 gems

alpine finch
#

pretty much lol

#

i bought the school one for eldridge during the bfriday sale

coral wren
#

I bought the eld one before I got eld lul

alpine finch
#

still need to ring NC FeelsLifeMan

odd schooner
#

Gotta go part time while it's December

alpine finch
#

yea luckily I got some work during December break

odd schooner
#

They give bonus

alpine finch
#

3 weeks off

#

my last exam next fri FeelsDabMan

odd schooner
#

A dollar per hour will guarantee you all December skins

alpine finch
slow totem
#

Skin-laifu is hard

wise summit
#

i got the eldridge skin out of my black friday bag

#

which was nice

#

also yeah my enty is wife portrait but normal skin because I don't like her weird dumb wedding skin face

zenith tundra
#

i play mostly on pc and enty wedding skin looks low quality af

hybrid tendon
#

i like elaborate dresses

#

so those wedding skins are pretty damn fine to me

#

🤔

coral wren
#

u can be a harem anime protagonist

slow totem
#

That’s one way to look at it

#

Hahahahahaha!!

zenith tundra
#

my 2nd floor is also full of wedding skins ships

slow totem
#

Now commit harem anime protagonist thing.

#

The thing? Being absolutely clueless to romantic affections ofc.

zenith tundra
#

i don't think i need that many, plus my aya ain't there since i use her retro skin

coral leaf
#

hey guys

#

someone have the top comps for pvp?

vestal crypt
coral leaf
#

wasde?

#

uh

#

need to level up my eldridge

#

i was using a hms comp

#

QE/Hood/Warspite belfast/fortune/juneau

#

but hms fleet isnt a thing anymore righ?

#

right?

elder crane
#

For fast climbing, Hood+AKaga is still good

#

Any WASD/AKaga/HMS team can work, given attacker advantage and the ability to counter enemy setups

slow totem
#

I use HMS as sniper fleet

#

They rekt backlines without touching the frontline too much

#

Bypassing eldridge and juneau

#

But I have various comps, never be a one-trick pony

#

I also have the Mighty Glacier fleet. WASDHood with fortune retro frontline and juneau.

#

And the “Fuck you Carriers” fleet with Hood NoCal Enterprise

alpine finch
#

HMS is pretty annoying to fight against but it's also rough to make

slow totem
#

Experimenting with build is fun

alpine finch
#

Need multiple belfap guns, gold 127mms, SG radars

#

rephrasing want from need

slow totem
#

Gold part isn’t absolutely necessary

alpine finch
#

I just find them lackluster without those

slow totem
#

Purple does the job as well, don’t stress too much about gold gears.

#

+10 Purple > +6 Gold

elder crane
#

Vs anything without Enty or Eld WASDE+Jun/Helena/(Eld or Belfast) reliably kills.
Well, you can skimp on secondaries for HMS fleet, and it barely matters.

alpine finch
#

ye

slow totem
#

Replace gold as you come across them, don’t cripple yourself.

alpine finch
#

speaking from defensive side as well but that's pretty niche for people to care

elder crane
#

Plus the CL secondary slot has many options for still-pretty-good equip

alpine finch
#

you get a 20% bonus dmg for offensive

slow totem
#

And attacking is what matters

#

Inf resets + attacker bonus makes defense fleet a place to meme or flex

#

Not actually causing your opponent to lose a match

alpine finch
#

Until a certain amount of gear

#

You can get hard blocked from winning

slow totem
#

Nah, I defeat 13k BiS fleet consistently with various comps.

#

Attacker bonus is real.

alpine finch
#

It's just getting to that point where you have access to various comps

elder crane
#

Well, teams that can surprise victory technically are good for high ranks.
And, you can lock people out for less competition.
And, Delaying teams technically help with Grand Admiral Rush

alpine finch
#

some people still run no retro laffey and unfortunately still their best option FeelsLifeMan

slow totem
#

It’s precisely why I never go the One-trick Pony route. You’ll get brickwalled sooner or later.

alpine finch
#

I'm one trick pony atm

slow totem
#

Yeaaa

#

I see your point

alpine finch
#

But Washington is so underdeveloped

slow totem
#

Get out of the phase asap

alpine finch
#

yea I wouldn't worry about max points at that time of ship stats

#

would just pick the easy fights until you feel confident in your comp

#

Otherwise you might find yourself on the 5th reset and wanting to kms

slow totem
#

True, and infinite resets provide ample opportunity to test out performance with various ships

alpine finch
#

I've used lusty up until now

zenith tundra
#

what do u use again hood wasd 13.6k with belfast juneau helena. can't seem to beat that

slow totem
#

Depends on my mood atm, but one way is to use my HMS to snipe Washington

#

Without touching Juneau

#

Washington dies first, no invul for SoDak

alpine finch
#

snipe backline is imo easiest way to go if u have BB options

slow totem
#

After that, it’s history

zenith tundra
#

so either hms or wasd?

slow totem
#

You can mirror match

#

Then it’s just about RNG, if mirror matching

alpine finch
#

flip a coin where u get 20% more dmg

#

id just run Helena over Juneau

#

on offense

slow totem
#

That’s one way, of many ways

zenith tundra
#

that frontline doesn't die tho. i can't seem to deal any damage on it

slow totem
#

Then it’s usually comes down to gear and skill levels

alpine finch
#

what's your stats and skill ranks

#

yea lol

slow totem
#

Assuming all your ships are lvl 100.

#

Oh yeah, if the enemy has no Eldridge, I sometime replace Warspite with Ark Royal for the memes.

zenith tundra
#

i think i really need juneau tbh

alpine finch
#

yea u always win positioning on offense

slow totem
#

One time, she outright YEETed both Wash and SoDak

alpine finch
#

you could try aya

#

And just reset until you face Torp

slow totem
#

Aya is becoming more and more legit

#

Esp when mag torps come

#

Oops, wrong screenshot

zenith tundra
#

i put aya on bench till kms but guess i can use her

alpine finch
#

I hit 7k on Aya with Helena buff

#

lol

#

it's actually so dumb how much aya can nuke someone

#

it's just rng problems

#

sometimes they'll dodge everything

#

sometimes they'll chase the torps

#

indirect homing EZ Clap

slow totem
#

Ayaya shakes up the competition. Good.

#

She can delete a fox too if she’s lucky

#

Therefore crippling the combo

alpine finch
#

aggressive usually wins in offense

#

I see people run triple DD on defense

#

One e and they're all gone

zenith tundra
#

i see a lot of defense comp of full cl with anti torp aux

slow totem
#

I run triple DD on defense.

alpine finch
#

That's me

#

My defense

slow totem
#

Ark Royal - Mutsuki Kisaragi Uzuki

#

Yeeeeeeet

alpine finch
#

Ears only fleet besides vestal

slow totem
#

Bestal fleet

zenith tundra
slow totem
#

Ha!

#

Or Oath Flex

#

Or Skin flex

alpine finch
#

I'm trying to diversify my fleets

#

I don't have too many options cuz no bulins

#

washy too new

zenith tundra
#

i don't like washy at all tbh

slow totem
#

You need to diversify your fleet, yes

#

But all in due time.

#

Hood - Washy - SoDak works amazing on attack too

#

I outright No Sell the foxes’ airstrikes and yeeted back with BB shells.

zenith tundra
#

i feel like washy barrage is much more useful for pve than pvp

slow totem
#

You just need the right gear

zenith tundra
#

hood can delete an opponent

slow totem
#

She can eat half of Enterprise’s HP

#

When Washy goes into rage mode (2nd skill), the barrage can even rival Hood’s.

#

Yea, no autoloader on her

#

Unlike Hood

zenith tundra
#

what kind of gear? im using 406 with twing 127 gold, sg

slow totem
#

I run Double SG Radar, I give the gold one to Hood, but exchangeable

#

Beaver enterprise cripples her damage a bit tho

#

But who cares

#

Experimentation >>> Static fleet

#

No experimentation, no progress

#

Try it, then share the results please

idle python
#

There are some cn people who put evasion on their back line though im not a believer of that meme

modern tree
#

its good on BBs for now because they dont have that many good options

vestal crypt
slow totem
#

I lost my shit.

zenith tundra
#

looking at that guide makes me salty because we miss so many amazing vanguard ships...

slow totem
#

They’ll all come in due time.

zenith tundra
#

i know but we just lost 1 month with neps...

slow totem
#

That counts as catching up

zenith tundra
#

i feel like i haven't even played al because of absolutely nothing to do. thank god we get kms next so i can start farming again

glossy jay
#

farming useless boats

slow totem
#

I don’t get it

zenith tundra
#

all i did in nep event was 6 hards, dailies, commissions and pvp. pretty much nothing

slow totem
#

O... kay? XD so you depend on events to have something to do, I take it.

#

And here I am, thinking there won’t be enough time to max out my new comps before the next event rolls around.

zenith tundra
#

i have to farm poi and maya but not into collection

slow totem
#

Then you won’t like this game much, at least won’t last in the long run. It’s fine tho.

zenith tundra
#

outside of scamcat and juneau i have nothing to lv that i can

slow totem
#

Damn, those are a lot of lvl 100 ships.

zenith tundra
#

i don't like to lv up ships i don't use at all

slow totem
#

Yea, you won’t last long. I’d wager a few more months at best.

zenith tundra
#

they'll get there eventually with commissions

slow totem
#

But who knows, people change.

modern tree
#

I love leveling up ships and never using them again, but having an option to do it if I feel like it

#

farming money for event and going through shiranui quest atm, pretty fun

slow totem
#

My thirst for Purple plates never end

zenith tundra
#

pvp is a good incentive for me since i can try all kind of stuff

#

i'd rather level up a ship that is useful for pvp than one i never use in pve

slow totem
#

Fair enough, everyone have their fun in their own way,

#

I’m a collector and like purple plates, I naturally always have something to do.

idle python
#

at least for me I like using different ships even if I know they're not good

zenith tundra
#

the thing i don't like about farming t3 plates is that they drop at random and there no way on focusing on one type

idle python
#

i.e. I'm using glorious in CN rn though most people in CN/JP would agree she is one of the worst CV/Ls

slow totem
#

Who cares. No experimentation means no progress.

#

Mad respecc, Yuyu

zenith tundra
#

also i spend a lot of time at work so i can't really use that much time on al if i want to do something else too

idle python
#

well my opinions of her are the same as the rest laffeyDrink she's just a t0.5 waifu

slow totem
#

That’s why Auto-Lane Best Lane

zenith tundra
#

i like to play games but hate when a game plays itself. it just doesn't give me any satisfaction

modern tree
#

I have max oath Vampire, what are tier lists?

slow totem
#

I have Akashi at lvl 100 and Love

#

AR ships useless? Ok.

zenith tundra
#

idk i find the extra heals and ammo useful

#

also unique to ar ships

slow totem
#

She also carries my low level ships since she can’t take MVP

zenith tundra
#

lol

slow totem
#

2k XP on flagship per battle is feelsgoodman

zenith tundra
#

i did yesterday daily and dealt no damage with both juneau and akashi. i didn't get an mvp lol

slow totem
#

Juneau should’ve taken mvp with torpedos tho

#

How peculiar

idle python
#

I'm one of those people who like akashi in w12, mainly because I can bring weak ships and still do fine with double healer

zenith tundra
#

i just stood in a corner and forgot

slow totem
#

Shoulda pressed one button

#

🤣

zenith tundra
#

i know

#

i don't think i'll quit al before nagato, jintsuu and yukikaze

#

also research looks great

modern tree
#

research will force you to use really weak/weird ships

slow totem
#

Wunderbar, bru

#

Glad to have you with us,

idle python
#

yeah that is one thing I did like about research

#

even if I'm never going to use karl kai again for example, I still got to have some experience using a unique-ish ship for roon

modern tree
#

I noticed something strange that I might need help testing

#

If you look at Sodak after Wash is dead, she seems to still be able to use her 5 sec invuln, but if shes offscreen, she just dies

#

nvm, there is no pattern, sometimes she just dies

#

I dont get it

idle python
#

some people are community discord are saying that it still lasts for a certain time, ike 5-10 seconds after washi dies she can still proc invuln

odd schooner
#

It's around 5

bright cloud
#

I think once Washington trigger her Blue skill, SoDak can survive death even after Wash die

#

I once lose PvP due to this shit

#

Hood vs SoDak

#

SoDak low HP

#

since wash no longer exist i thought thats a win already

#

for some reason sodak aint dies

#

and Hood dies in the next salvo

#

btw anyone know
Does PVP plane suicide dmg based on plane HP left or as long as plane survive it deal full dmg ?

modern tree
#

it s probably coded the same was it is in pve which is based on remaining plane HP with 30% minimum

#

but I dont really have any data on that

abstract cypress
#

wash need to trigger the blue skill 1st (when sodak at 30%) when shes still alive

#

then even after shes ded, sodak can trigger the lethal dmg invurnerability cuz wash already give that skill to her

#

the skill description on wash skill is clear as a day

odd schooner
#

Oh, ok got it

#

I'll inform the other guy

wind tide
#

Why do some people use bullins for their defense? Or rather useless fleet for their defense?

#

?

odd schooner
#

They don't give a thing for defenses

wind tide
#

Eh.. I see. Well, might as well give them thanks. XD

odd schooner
#

Def fleets are like

  1. Proper def fleets
  2. Def fleets bragging new ships
  3. Uniform fleets (eg. Full green/red/blue/loli/pink)
  4. Ark royal's harem ft. Vert (basically loli with Ark Royal and or with Vert on it)
  5. Shikikan harem fleet on their wedding dress
  6. The bulins
  7. The nuke codes fleet
wind tide
#

Lol #2 mostly is what I see :'D

#

I've seen a lvl 100 Bullin fleet once. :o

#

I don't lose merits if my defending team loses right?

odd schooner
#

Yes

#

They're just there

#

No loss or anything else

#

Ah wait i forgot the most important fleet

#

The 7th

wind tide
#

Alright, might as well do the uniform fleets :'D thanks for entertaining my questions :D

#

Oh yea Big 7!

#

Now that you mention it 8D

hot creek
#

p sure you can't limit break bullins so they only go to 70.

idle python
#

they're already max limit break from the start laffeyDrink

wind tide
#

I know what I saw emilesip

trail hollow
#

Im one of the few 1. Fleets

lone pendant
#

same laffeyHide

hybrid obsidian

I got preached about being a bother using 1. def, and no give free wins

99% ppl use full defense laffeyDrink

mental sierra
#

Season's done. I only missed one match this season, which is better than I've ever done, lol

#

I'm sure there're a few guys still sitting on matches refusing to take any 9 point matches until the very end

#

oh wait

#

there's still a day left lol

#

I forgot what day it is

#

oh well

hybrid tendon
#

points doesnt matters after you have gotten gensui

#

odd schooner

Test. Seems like I'm missing something

#

Weird. It's not uploaded

#

Or delay?

its unicorn, u cant mad at her emilesip

hybrid obsidian
#

lul

odd schooner
#

Not again

hybrid obsidian
#

not a bad team

#

this channel is quite helpful, I can identify most potatos to refresh upon sighting next season

odd schooner
#

The only time to refresh is when all 4 enemies would give +9 or lesser

hybrid obsidian
#

i refresh every 30 mins after lunch and night reset when folks dont move

#

all ppl i know whos going to hardcore turtling

#

especially my group mates who all keep 10 tix like all season, lol

vague token
#

lol

slow totem
#

Mr. sandbaaaaaag

odd schooner
#

@slow totem saw your fleet today on a local group

slow totem
#

The “I’m gonna get arrested” fleet!

hybrid obsidian
#

hmm, is vert like ark royal?

slow totem
#

Less screamy and drooling kind of Ark Royal, yes

hybrid obsidian
#

lol

vague token
#

i havent even noticed that in nep 1

#

but that's off topic xD

slow totem
#

Hahahahaha!

zenith tundra
#

for non belfast cl should i use belgun or tbtsk or something else?

abstract cypress
#

belgun

#

tbsk is 2nd choice

modern tree
#

Belgun unless they are Atlanta class or are Edinburgh. Extra fp and HE ammo profile really matter a lot

abstract cypress
#

oh yea atlanta use dd guns and edin AP

modern tree
#

suprisingly, there are 2 Atlanta class cruisers that are good in pvp, Sandy needs her retrofit first, tho

slow totem
#

Juneau and...?

odd schooner
#

Sandy

slow totem
pearl nimbus
#

And Portland as well

meager vessel
#

pls rate my low grade pvp fleet

#

Im new af @_@

#

yea they carry every game lol

#

Uhm I do have Illus, Belfast, Takao, all 3 starter DDs

zenith tundra
#

u should try to get hood too

meager vessel
#

Kaga and Akagi

#

I tried but no luck for "FREAKIN HOOOOOOOOOD"

#

still trying

zenith tundra
#

juneau is good for pvp and maybe get eldridge when u can

meager vessel
#

who should I replace for Belfast

#

yea planning to get Eldridge

#

9k away

#

Prinz holds really well tho that's why I put her there

#

I used to have Minneapolis but she dies so quick

zenith tundra
#

minne needs kills so not good for pvp

meager vessel
#

I see

#

but if I'm gonna put Belfast into the fleet, who should she replace

grave gale
#

Portland will be king of CAs come 120. In both pve and pvp

meager vessel
#

ah ok

#

but Laffey is mostly my front's dmg output XD

#

she has really good gear on her

zenith tundra
#

for pvp generally speaking u want to have washington/south dakota with hood or enterprise, akagi kaga and hood, warspite hood queen elisabeth. i'd try to get one of those formations

odd schooner
#

Def laffey is like I'm fighting 5 ships only

meager vessel
#

hmm interesting

#

ok I'll give it a shot

odd schooner
#

Juneau doko

meager vessel
#

for eva?

zenith tundra
#

tbh i can't stand juneau belfast helena more than that

odd schooner
#

Juneau Helena Eldridge is the hard counter for wasd E any vanguard

#

Juneau Belfast Fortune kai wasd hood for Akaga

#

Yeah, just focus countering 1 fleet

grave gale
#

you can't counter everything at once

#

pvp is rock, paper, scissors

#

I don't like juneau + eldridge together for that reason

odd schooner
#

There's a problem solver for that cya

grave gale
#

Eld keeps Jun alive too long

odd schooner
#

It's in your inventory

grave gale
#

her heal is worthless if your back dies before her

odd schooner
#

It's called boiler

slow totem
#

Just put double air radar on Juneau

#

Hehehe

grave gale
#

yup

odd schooner
#

I haven't experienced my Juneau dying so early yet

#

How did you guys built your juneau

slow totem
#

The usual

grave gale
#

go without the torp buldge on her and she can torped to death quite easily at the very start

zenith tundra
#

eldrdge can also be torpedo'd to death

slow totem
#

100mm, Quint torp, Roomba AA

grave gale
#

especially with all the ayanamis out there now

slow totem
#

Torp Bulge and Toolbox

zenith tundra
#

and she has no anti torp equi too

odd schooner
#

Using 100m for juneau huh fumizukiStare

slow totem
#

Torp Bulge

#

100mm on Juneau. Yessss

#

Fubuki?

grave gale
#

farming for her won't be fun

odd schooner
#

Just think of farming 610mm

#

She's consolation prize

grave gale
#

bet we won't have danger before 10

odd schooner
#

Are we even getting her retro

#

I'm ok with it

slow totem
#

Good, shake up the competition

odd schooner
#

I don't even know if portkai can go pvp at 100

#

Tfw the only time rng screwed me up with the same opponent i fight every reset was when i was streaming

potent lion
#

is ayanami good for pvp

odd schooner
#

She's good so long she doesn't get hit by bb shell

zenith tundra
#

she's good but dies quite fast

#

good if u want to burst stuff

potent lion
#

so which is better laffey kai vs aya kai in pvp

zenith tundra
#

i haven't used laffy for pvp but i'd still choose aya

odd schooner
#

Neither. Cause DD

But if you really want to pick one, ayaya

zenith tundra
#

both of them lack defense so better chose the one that can deal most damage

potent lion
#

so edinburgh, belfast and fortune a good vanguard?

zenith tundra
#

for hms fleet yes

potent lion
#

or should i replace fortune with jeaneu

odd schooner
#

You'd want a Juneau for hms

#

Replace edin

potent lion
#

with?

odd schooner
#

I had to bench my max affection edin at one point

#

Edinburgh

#

Juneau

#

Then Torp bulge + toolbox

sage thistle
#

how's the team...

odd schooner
#

Is good

#

Can you fend off akaga?

sage thistle
#

yea

odd schooner
#

Then it's good

sage thistle
#

👍

odd schooner
#

Those 2 has oil tankers?

potent lion
#

wait so jeaneu, belfast and who's the other one?

odd schooner
#

Fortune kai

#

I guess i won't suggest boilers till i complete mine

#

Need to test first

lime rivet
#

@sage thistle team's generally okay, but might struggle against meta lineups

odd schooner
#

It's the first meta fleet right

lime rivet
#

No.

odd schooner
#

Lusty hood enty

lime rivet
#

It's a meme fleet, not a meta one

odd schooner
#

Hms came first?

#

Oh

zenith tundra
#

it was legit before akga and wasd was a thing tho

odd schooner
#

I thought that was a thing since that's usually the fleet i kept seeing last September

lime rivet
#

No one seriously uses Lusty. But Lusty/Eldridge is a meme counter against enemy Enterprises

#

Akaga was always a thing.

#

Before akaga it was basically solo E/HMS

zenith tundra
#

i'd say not everyone had it

odd schooner
#

Well ye i did use solo E hms

#

Feels nice imo

lime rivet
#

No one really had it in the upper tiers

potent lion
#

hood + akaga / jeaneu + belfast + (i don't have fortune kai yet) ?

odd schooner
#

Rianda, Cleveland

potent lion
#

who do i substitute furture kai with

odd schooner
#

Uhhh who else

#

Ayakai

lime rivet
#

No leandee

odd schooner
potent lion
#

woow

lime rivet
#

Ayakai is of dubious use for now. Skip.

#

Cleve or Helena for placeholders

odd schooner
#

We're closing in to her torps

lime rivet
#

Or eldridge, if you have her

zenith tundra
#

aya is not bad for that since hood akaga is fast burst

potent lion
#

yah i wanna place top 1000 more or less

lime rivet
#

It's not the homing torps

odd schooner
#

120 stats?

potent lion
#

ok i'd go with helena then, thanks

lime rivet
#

Ayakai needs jintsuu and other ijn/torpedo boosts to really put homing torps to work

#

Otherwise she's really luck based

odd schooner
#

Seems like sendai jintsuu are too far away

lime rivet
#

Exactly

odd schooner
#

Jintsuu retro*

slow totem
#

Ayakai - Jintsuu - Fubuki?

odd schooner
#

Also aurora

#

Basically ijn front is still impossible at this point

slow totem
#

Impossible on a consistent basis

zenith tundra
#

yukikaze too

slow totem
#

On a meme dumb luck basis however...

#

Hehehehe

odd schooner
#

Ykkz is dyed in red rerun

slow totem
#

NANODIE

zenith tundra
#

ik but totally viable pvp

odd schooner
#

too far away

zenith tundra
#

not that nagato is that much closer tbh

odd schooner
#

I guess gunboats are going to be on a good condition for now

lime rivet
#

The current EN meta is basically akaga offensive, WASD defensive

zenith tundra
#

well if ur really unlucky might have to restart after 5 secs because of trop deleting vanguard even now

odd schooner
#

I'm noticing a bit of struggle of akaga when facing wasd Hood

#

Or maybe cause my foxes aren't max oath

@potent lion +10 cata +10 oil tanker

No reppu?

does purple work?

odd schooner

Gold Reppu baits AA

#

No

potent lion

no reppu

odd schooner
#

I guess you're stuck with those huh

zenith tundra
#

sakura torp are good against slow vanguards tho

slow totem
#

Bit more RNG tho

zenith tundra
#

like helena juneau belfast

slow totem
#

But Akaga is pure RNG-less ships anyway

#

So a lil rng is fine

odd schooner
#

Why do i feel like i had to suffer and face all kinds of big walls on pvp

slow totem
#

Cause... you are a one-trick pony, maybe?

#

Never be a one-trick pony

odd schooner
#

I have all 3 fleets

slow totem
#

Oh, should be no problem lol

potent lion
#

i have gold torpedo bomber and fighter though does that work?

slow totem
#

No worries

#

The only way you’ll face a wall in PvP is if your fleet is a one-trick pony.

Feels like harcourt aint even reading my chats since last week

Sorry bru

my auxilaries are purple, where to farm gold ones?

odd schooner

Just look at the maps

potent lion

oil tankers i mean

No gold oil tank

Can you open the wiki, Eliz?

zenith tundra
#

can't u get em from boxes?

slow totem
#

Most of your questions so far can be answered by just perusing the wiki.

odd schooner
#

Purple catapults are at 7-2

slow totem
#

Yea, but he said farm.

#

Not boxes

odd schooner
#

Nah it's ok we're here

slow totem
#

*boxes

zenith tundra
#

well farm boxes then

potent lion
#

we should delete the help channel if we can't ask for questions then?

odd schooner
#

7-2 has cuda

#

Wait let me check oil tanker

#

I forgot

potent lion
#

do you expect us to read the wiki everytime we encounter a problem?

slow totem
#

Help channel isn’t even answering questions a lot of times and if you ask a question

potent lion
#

that'd be like so much work etc..

slow totem
#

The answer is bot commands

#

Either tier guide or wiki.

potent lion
#

then what's the use of help?

#

🤔

slow totem
#

You tell me

#

Alternate General I guess

odd schooner

But to give them credit, those questions have their answers comprised nicely in those guides and wiki links.

Him asking you to check the wiki is perfectly fine - the information you're asking for is stuff most people don't have on hand and check the wiki to answer anyway. You reacting badly to that, calling him a dick and a child? Out of line.

potent lion
#

i believe i was offended by what the guy said. just saying

lime rivet
#

Your being offended does not give you leave to insult him.

potent lion
#

mate, we should just remove the help channel if we're not allowed to ask a question that's like saying read the damn wiki isntead of asking a question

#

that's how i interpreted what the guy said

lime rivet

You interpreted it wrong, then.

#

DMs Please

still grove
potent lion
#

if you backread a bit, by him saying: can't you read the wiki elizabeth is an insult is it not?

#

can't he just say it politely by for instance mentioning a suggestion remark or something?

slow totem
#

Yo, dude, some countries block the wiki.

lime rivet
#

On the flipside of your comment, why even have a wiki if we have discord help channels?

The two are meant to complement each other. Information on the wiki is pretty basic, but generic and easily applied. Help channels serve to create more tailored and personalised advice based on the foundations put on by the wiki. If you're asking about foundational knowledge (where X equip or Y ship drops), I'll tell you straight - most people do not have these information memorised.

I was present when he said that and it was in no way an insult.

slow totem
#

I was asking if you could access it, as who knows it might be blocked in your area.

#

Sorry if I sounded rude, i apologize.

modern tree
#

Has anyone here tried z1 with z23 kai? how did it go?

slow totem
#

Very solid for PvE.

#

Oops wrong channel lol

modern tree
#

This is why I asked. Running that with Juneau up front or some other tank can't possibly be THAT BAD for pvp, can it?

#

my Z1 is not high enough level to check atm

slow totem
#

I haven’t touched any of the Zs for PvP I’m afraid

zenith tundra
#

how does hms backline work: u put hood against the target u want to kill 1st, qe in the safest spot and ws in the remaining one?

odd schooner
#

@zenith tundra hood facing target backline while warspite is on the other end

#

Warpsite skill atks the farthest enemy hence it's top priority when warpsite is at the top would be enemy at the bottom and vice versa

zenith tundra
#

so what if enemy in the middle?

#

like kaga enty akagi

odd schooner
#

You won't hit it till you have killed the farthest

zenith tundra
#

ok so on washy sd hood u would use hood qe ws (top to bottom)

odd schooner
#

I'd target Washington first

zenith tundra
#

so isn't my formation correct?

#

hood barraging washy and ws opposite corner

#

also what 2nd weapon i should use for ws/queen?

slow totem
#

Belguns

odd schooner
#

belgun gold ofc

slow totem
#

Ez

odd schooner

That's why i flipped to USN first cause i had belgun problems

Also 610mm is nice on def

I don't think ill use mag torps anymore

zenith tundra

2nd best faftfffer belguns? till i get more

odd schooner
#

Shotgun 610mm GWmroIllyaUwaa

slow totem
#

Uhm...

#

Twin 127mm?

#

Since you use that for ships that can’t use the belgun

odd schooner
#

Laffey uses 127mm

slow totem
#

I mean BB aux guns

#

In context

odd schooner
#

Oh

modern tree
#

gold 127mm is good on qe/warspite for pvp

odd schooner
#

120 twin

#

Purple

zenith tundra
#

too many guns to get lol

odd schooner
#

searchal Warspite

modern tree
#

but if you are struggling for golds, purple belgun or triple 152mm is okay for pvp

slow totem
#

I love triple 152mm for its memey potential

#

It can literally one-shot vanguards if they ram the bb at the right time

#

It’s hilarious

zenith tundra
#

2/15 for both belgun and twin127 and i need at least 1 more for full wasd hood qe and warspite

modern tree
#

triple 152 is surprisingly good because of range and frontlines getting in your face if it comes to that

lime rivet
#

yeah

slow totem
#

But Belgun is arguably better for general cases

modern tree
#

belgun is better because 20 fp

slow totem
#

But in specific meme cases, the triple 152mm trumps out

modern tree
#

especially on hms where you have qe buff

zenith tundra
#

is 152 just a meme?

lime rivet
#

yeah, belguns melt vanguards

#

it's pretty memey at the end of the day. the spread is way too wide

slow totem
#

152mm is a good alternative

#

Having choices is fun

#

But if you want a black and white answer

#

Go for Belgun

modern tree
#

I used triple 152 for a long time on my hms, 60 range vs 50 is noticeable

zenith tundra
#

purple belgun vs 152

#

which one

slow totem
#

I believe it’s already answered

zenith tundra
#

belgun it is then

modern tree
#

the problem with 152 is that once you have the belguns, all plates used on it are wasted because it's a meme in pve as well

slow totem
#

Oooh in PvE, 152mm can triple one-shot fireboats in one burst

zenith tundra
#

i wouldn't +10 a purple one either way

modern tree
#

but if you are okay with using +6 gear in pvp, then trying it is not very costly

slow totem
#

So not that wasted

#

Pew pew shotgun blast

#

Fireboat wall gone

#

We getting good fireboat killer gun with OC

zenith tundra
#

i was playing around with the hit formula and are hit rating equip worth for vanguards? at best on cl they seems to give like 5% extra hit chance, is that worth considering?

near sparrow
#

My gut reaction is to say its worth it for the other things provided.

modern tree
#

I used to use Gyro's on all my ships when I could still afford to run Leander, but it's hard to judge it's impact

near sparrow
#

I use one +10 on Wichita to bring her to CL speeds

modern tree
#

when I was experimenting with CAs it was all about the double FCR because in the harsh pvp world its kill or be killed for a slow ship with no evasion

#

Suffolk with 2 FCRs, Leander and QE buffs hits hilariously hard... if she hits

elder crane
#

For offensive style equipment, 5% extra hit chance is probably the best we have (if your hit chance is about 50%, it's a 10% DpS buff!), minus the rainbow torpedo for some ships.
Only question is then, if you want offensive equipment on vanguard instead of defensive equipment.

modern tree
#

this is why I said when I could still afford to run leander, main fleets are too buff right now, front is just there to stall, but hey, this is about to change with the magtorps

zenith tundra
#

homing torp will be available for box drops since the beginning of kms?

slow totem
#

Akagi gets the best fighter cause she has flat efficiency

#

Kaga gets the best Torpedo Bomber cause she’s Torp-biased

#

That’s pretty much it

#

Yea, but the point still stands

#

That’d mean put your best fighter on Akagi

#

Kaga gets 2nd best

#

Yea, so, eh.

#

Pirate goes to Akagi I guess

#

Np

odd schooner
#

@balmy torrent sadly akaga can't use vf17 cause it will clog your planes. Reppu however, works ridiculously well and will bait AA fron enemy while having all of the other planes land with much higher hp

exotic merlin

Which front line work for an HMS fleet

slow totem
#

It’s actually the backline that’s important for HMS

exotic merlin
#

I got a QE and Hood

slow totem
#

QE - Hood - Warspite, and you adjust the frontline according to the enemies

exotic merlin
#

So HMS is basically for sniping enty

slow totem
#

Vs foxes? Belfast
Vs Enterprise? Eldridge

#

And Washingtons

#

Without touching Juneau

exotic merlin
#

Ohhhhhh

#

so it doesnt proc the heal i see

slow totem
#

So you cripple their backline while their vanguard is kept alive for the mental torture

#

🔥 GWqlabsFeelsEvilMan 🔥

wraith hollow
#

I also want to use full hms but i cqnt personally justify warspite over enty

#

Entys the mvp 80% of the time

slow totem
#

You need warspite and Hood together to delete enterprise in 15 seconds

exotic merlin
#

The thing is i dont have Warspite atm and Im stocking up on cubes :((

slow totem
#

Lemme grab a few screenshots

wraith hollow
#

Whos the highest priority target vs wasd enty?

slow totem
#

15 seconds, Enterprise gone

#

The highest priority is Enterprise ofc.

exotic merlin
#

Oh god

slow totem
#

A proper HMS will delete Enterprise before she can fire a single barrage or Aegis activates.

#

Making the fight 6 vs 5

exotic merlin
#

Which fronts does this have

slow totem
#

Since there was an Enterprise, I used Eldridge over Belfast as a failsafe.

#

Here’s another one where I put Warspite on flagship for giggles.

wraith hollow
#

If entys in the middle, how would you position tje back?

exotic merlin
#

Just position Hood wherever Enty is at i think?

#

So the volley hits? Correct me if im wrong

slow totem
#

If Enty is in the middle, I put Hood in the middle and subtitute Warspite for Ark Royal.

#

QE blocked her, damn it

wraith hollow
#

Yeah since warspite shoots the opposite corner i didnt know what to do w/ her if the target is in the middle and i cant put her there since hood

slow totem
#

You can also use Enty, but I’d replace QE with North Carolina too.

#

Straying outside of HMS, but well, never be a one-trick pony

#

And no comp is omnipotently viable.

exotic merlin
#

There are just too many ship and synergies taht i havent seen lol

slow totem
#

There are a few notable ones to narrow them down

exotic merlin
#

Yes pls

slow totem
#

Vanguard: Depends on what you are facing.

#

Backline:

#

-QE Hood WS/Ark Royal
-WASD Enty/Hood
-Foxes Hood
-Enty Hood Illustrious - with Eldridge
-Foxes Enty maximum plane spam

#

Hood MVP

wraith hollow
#

I never understood enty hoodnlustys synergy. I thought that was just the 3 good boats strat lol

slow totem
#

It is very newbie-friendly

#

And combos with Eldridge, but well, mostly newbie friendly

#

Since those 3 ships are easily obtainable, Technically can be done at level 1 Commander

#

If you whale ofc loool

hot creek
#

HMS does not kill Enty at the 15 seconds mark about 99% of the time so can you stop overhyping HMS lmao.

slow totem
#

I respect your opinion, but practice says otherwise.

#

Who knows, you can input in as well

#

Two heads are better than one. No arguments, no progress.

#

GWfroggyPepoThumb go ahead, bru.

wraith hollow
#

Why people put intentionally bad teams as defense tho

slow totem
#

I do too heh

wraith hollow
#

Like ark n loli

slow totem
#

The “I’m gonna get arrested” fleet

#

Cause with infinite resets and attacker boost, defense doesn’t matter.

fair rover
#

It's why I'm leveling Vert to join Ark on my pvp defense team

hot creek
#

I have a married and geared HMS backline. While it's possible that they can snipe Enty before she can launch a single airstrike it's incredibly unlikely because it requires Hood/Warspite's main guns to aim at Enty too.

#

You're making it sound like it happens often to everytime

#

which it doesnt

slow totem
#

Mine’s not married. For further info.

#

Well, in the end, it’s their decision.

#

Oh wait, got QE married, but that’s it

#

Not saying you are wrong, but I stand by my decision that HMS just cripples Enty.

Respect ya, bru.

as in what comps you should expect to see?

cosmic stratus

Pretty much the stuff mentioned

is front fine rn

idle python

for now since you don't have other pvp ships leveled up

minor slate

alright

ty

idle python
#

on serious defense fleets near the top you'll see a lot of the following: juneau, belfast, fortune, eldridge, helena

#

obv there are some others that can kind of work

#

but those are arguably the most common in the frontline

minor slate
#

what about aya

idle python
#

aya is unreliable

#

every now and then she can shotgun a frontliner

vague token

aya is better for backline snipes

#

like, if you see triple BB

minor slate
#

ahh

cosmic stratus
#

Wait a week lol...

vague token
#

you run aya

#

and gain a health lead

idle python
#

but most of the time she'll miss and die pretty early since she's frail

vague token
#

demon dance usually hits at least 1 torp

minor slate
#

ok ok

idle python
#

that assumes that your aya survives long enough to be able to torp the backline

vague token
#

not everyone uses triple 410s

minor slate
#

half the time she does

vague token
#

usually you make it to 20

#

it's not like a CL is going to add pressure

#

nor a CA

#

might as well go for it

#

only other option is helena

minor slate
#

i see i see

vague token
#

imo

#

not an expert ;)

minor slate
#

shes low rn so i'll level her up soon

idle python
#

but yeah aya is one of those above average ships but not something you'll see too commonly

#

mainly because she's inconsistent

vague token
#

aya isnt good for defense until mag torp

#

because of position and stuff

#

the defender position works really well with hitting your main fleet because the main fleet on attack is closer

#

to the vanguard

#

so they'll curve towards them

#

while demon dance (and terminator mode) have straight line torps

#

so they work better on attack

#

with that damage booooost

#

xD

idle python
#

even with mags she might be a bit more used but I doubt she'll be seen too much until we get jintsuu

minor slate
#

when mag torp coming out?

cosmic stratus

Use aya for comfort if you’d like. I get above 300 with her. Until you get better equipment i doubt it will impact you much, especially if you have to swap her for a less used ship
