enty cranes blobSweat

foggy token
#

just need a good carrrier such as centaur essex or enterprise for dmg

dull hollow
#

the good ole days

foggy token
dull hollow
#

when everything was viable

silver folio
#

yeah i dont care about my vg they're only for buffing my cranes

gritty cove
#

Servers up

#

bois

dull hollow
#

triple CV requires

#

that ur frontline survive

#

or u auto lose

silver folio
#

i go benson and random shit

dull hollow
#

EssexE centaur is the esports version

#

triple CV pretty fun

foggy token
#

which imo is too rng with sendai and aurora shit

dull hollow
#

eh

foggy token
#

either u one shot or u die

dull hollow
#

i guess

#

i havent played neptune yukikaze into sendai aurora yet

#

it's been a while since I used EssexE

foggy token
#

ur not gonna run 3 cas to avoid that shit

dull hollow
#

believe in louis

foggy token
#

still gonna be 1 ca 2 lights

silver folio
#

@foggy token so are CAs actually a good aurora counter in EN or are people being retarded as usual

dull hollow
#

CAs are bad

#

until

#

level 120

#

maybe sidegrade at 110

#

u cant run them at 100

#

evasion shits the bed

silver folio
#

thats what i thought...

#

lmao

dull hollow
#

EN ppl like parrot what they hear in JP/CN a lot without understanding the mechanics

#

thats why you have idiots running Akashi

#

in w10

#

and complainig they cant win

#

LULW

#

akashi only for w12 anyway

#

tbh if ur framing w10 before 110 uncap I question your motivations

#

so much wasted exp

hot creek
#

gotta get lulu and jintsuu m8

dull hollow
#

go level up some side ships in 7-2

foggy token
#

people are fast lel

#

already got their mayas

#

this is why i waited after 5 pois and 5 mayas

#

and then i go to w10

dull hollow
#

tho jintsuu actually useful for FW

#

cuz of suicide strat

#

so if u rush for jintsuu

#

u get the advantage

foggy token
#

wait for op ships

dull hollow
#

i find it really poetic that jintsuu saved FW for me on JP

foggy token
#

im actually trying out nagihoe in cn

#

works pretty well

dull hollow
#

Jintsuu is bad on attacker

fw was bad in general

put the two together

foggy token
#

frontline still louis sandy and juneau

dull hollow
#

they do quite well

foggy token
#

ur bad

#

kek

dull hollow
#

ppl on jp legit have no idea how CN codebase works

We watch the bili bili of FW and we're like "bro what"

#

FW got meme'd into the ground in a week

#

only because i'm jp's only pvp metamancer I managed to figure out the suicide strat

silver folio
#

is suicide hms good?

dull hollow
#

no

#

only fw can play it

#

because they can eat one CV strike with no frontline

#

and still survive

silver folio
#

hms cant do it with monarch?

dull hollow
#

FW abuses this strat because you survive w.e flies ur way

#

barring extreme damage like essexE

#

u get bombed by essexE all ur left with

#

is a 1HP sodak

#

LMAO

#

FW suicide style is just extremely strong vs nakaga

#

much more consistent than trying to run tanky fronts

silver folio
#

im assuming

#

'because foxes are weak ships

#

and die to salvos easily

dull hollow
#

no

because foxes airstrikes

#

come in at 30s

#

which is when sodak skill trigger

#

so ur team takes 50% less damage

silver folio
#

k

coral wren
#

server is up

dull hollow
#

then u blow them up

#

nagaka is

#

on the squishier

#

side of things tho

slow totem
#

Foxes are berry squishy with 0 defensive skills

hot creek
#

is amagi worth using on EN right now?

dull hollow
#

nakaga is being powercreeped by

#

Dragon pair

#

anyway

#

we expect it will

#

no one has gotten level 120 dragons yet

#

afaik

#

but there are videos of hiryuu soloing nakaga backline

slow totem
#

Hiryuu Kai is Natsu from fairy tail

#

Seriously

dull hollow
#

we also dont know how Nagami will play out

slow totem
#

Goes 1 HP -> Survives -> Powers Up -> Wins

foggy token
#

hiryuu and soryuu pair has less of synergy with sendai

dull hollow
#

i tried playing roachstyle nakaga

silver folio
#

whats the power up?

dull hollow
#

with neptune Junny

#

and Yukikaze

#

works fine too

#

means i dont need to run sendai and aurora

#

makes my life easier

#

i'd imagine it would work well with dragon pair but

#

cant say for sure

#

game does weird shit

silver folio
#

any good mikasa comps?

dull hollow
#

not for pvp

#

low HP low AA

#

get dumpstered

#

she might have good luck

slow totem
#

If we have to use Mikasa

dull hollow
#

but u cant evade plane damage

slow totem
#

What would be the best of the worse?

silver folio
#

i was thinking

#

amagi with mikasa

dull hollow
#

eh

#

maybe?

#

i would imagine

#

Hyuuga + Ise Kai

#

would be best

silver folio
#

then u can bbkaga and hopefully halfass some shit

dull hollow
#

shell harder than Jean Bart

#

I did Nagato + BBVs

#

was fun comp

#

not good comp

#

but fun

#

sometims u 1shot a fox

slow totem
#

So

#

Mikasa Hyuuga Ise Kai?

dull hollow
#

yah that would

#

do even mroe damage

#

cuz of mikasa skill

#

that's a 100% meme build tho

#

expect to get ass blasted

slow totem
#

Well sometimes

dull hollow
#

it's only because u wanna see 4k+ crits

#

against enemy backline

slow totem
#

Memes > Metaslaving, for refreshing

dull hollow
silver folio
#

so isekai and nto reg ise?

dull hollow
#

both ise and hyuuga are way better kai'd

silver folio
#

oh ok

dull hollow
#

180% fitting on gun is no joke

silver folio
#

then tehy wouldnt get the buff from mikasa

dull hollow
#

like ppl say u need CV to do w12

#

and im like

#

"my ryuusei on nakaga hits for 1.1k"

silver folio
#

why cv on w12

dull hollow
#

"my hyuuga crits for 11k on one bullet"

#

??

silver folio
#

why is cv needed on 12

dull hollow
#

cuz W12 has lots of planes

#

but u see dimitri

#

if u blow up enemy

#

they cant fire planes

silver folio
#

dont bb h ave AA guns tho

#

CV planes seem unreliable

dull hollow
#

yah but it's less damage than CV planes

#

supposdly

#

CV damage is low af anyway

silver folio
#

but CV planes fly out at weird times

dull hollow
#

just blow them up

#

with 180% crits

#

once u learn how to use centaur and 2 bb

slow totem
#

I love this

dull hollow
#

game changes 4ever

silver folio
#

wasd also has

#

A ranking AA stat

dull hollow
#

u dont even need WASD level AA

#

maybe for 12-3 with no danger gauge

silver folio
#

yeah why are CVs needed

#

im confused

dull hollow
#

cuz

#

ppl went in

#

and saw 99x planes

#

and lost their shit

#

then i go up in there

#

and crit Choukai for 11k

#

with hyuuga

#

and im like

#

i mean it's still

#

more plane damage

#

than most maps

#

but to say u need cv

#

is a bit much

#

I mean u can 1:1 w12 trash

#

with monarch lol

#

anyway back on topic

#

im pretty excited to see

#

what will happen to EN pvp meta

#

level 100 fw vs level 100 amagi

#

i place bets on FW

#

amagai still missing nagato

#

and amagi + foxes just sounds like shit lol

coral wren

O wait

grand sluice
#

Alright.

coral wren
#

y, i'm an en pleb

slow totem
#

Hiryuu Kai is the real problem, right?

grand sluice
#

Im pretty sure that backline is the new meta, and I'm fine with it. My Akaga still shits on it.

#

What I can't shit on is the god damn Yukikaze.

slow totem
#

Isn’t ykkz specifically designed to cuck CVs?

grand sluice
#

Yukikaze is like the glue that holds the entire backline comp together.

#

SHES DESIGNED TO TAKE 1 DAMAGE FROM ALMOST EVERY DAMAGE SOURCE BY PURE RNG

urban coral
#

oh wow

grand sluice
#

SHES LIKE IF ELDRIDGE DIDNT HAVE A FUCKING COOLDOWN ON HER SKILL

slow totem

Oh shiet

So... cuck everything?

how often does she proc?

grand sluice

TOO OFTEN

slow totem

1/4 of the time

But feels like 120%?

urban coral

oh wow

Torpedos - LOL NOPE 1 DAMAGE

eldridge: who are you
yukikaze: i'm you, but better

slow totem
#

BB shells? GWqlabsFeelsFunnyMan

urban coral
#

25% chance every hit?! that's nasty

grand sluice
#

It's not even that she has the stupid 1 damage skill

#

It's that her evasion is so high too

#

So whatever doesn't get reduced to 1 damage, MISS MISS MISS MISS MISS

slow totem
#

She also reinforces backline ala Fortune, and also heals them ala Vestal

coral wren
#

sounds like a complete bullshit

urban coral
#

oh wow that's messed up

slow totem
#

now you see why Itsfyh hates her

urban coral
#

I secretly want that here in en

coral wren
#

Hm, but ppl don't put her on the bottom line, eh?

YUKIKAZE-SAMA NANO DA

I wonder how tough would it be for cn hms to deal with that

slow totem
#

They have Monarch and Dork, right?

coral wren
#

Ye

grand sluice
#

Yukikaze was a mistake notLikeDuck

coral wren
#

Looks like nothing special

#

But it's actually pretty high up there

slow totem
#

Still bs skills tho

urban coral
#

what's that above T0

slow totem
#

“Win against anything” tier

coral wren
#

rimelight's nemesis

#

as you can see 😄

urban coral
#

wait is that the actual translation?!

slow totem
#

Remember that CN’s codebase is different than JP and EN

#

EN follows JP

coral wren
#

Actually, the best way o deal with all that invul on everything and everyone just to give some bb or cv invul negating skill

slow totem
#

How hit, evasion, damage, etc works differently

grand sluice
#

NOOOOOOOO

#

NOT YUKIKAZE

slow totem

Oh shit

He broke, send help

grand sluice
#

Nooooooo. No more Nanoda. Not the Nanoda.

urban coral
#

lmao

native mantle
#

so without washi i guess its akagami for backline atm?

slow totem
#

Just try out and see if you like how they perform.

native mantle
#

i just ask cause i wouldn't know what to put in my vanguard then

foggy token
#

imo, amagi replaces hood in akaga fleet.

#

amagi barrage has more tactical value than hood

slow totem
#

Only one way to really find out

#

The possibility of them both being viable is also there

foggy token
#

since with akaga, u will enjoy that 45% reload decrease

#

which give u an option to use mk6 in pvp

#

for amagi

slow totem
#

The accuracy of Amagi’s Level 10 barrage will determine if she’s a clear pick over Hood for Akaga or not. Excited to find out.

#

But leveling her skills is going to be a bietch

foggy token
#

the reason behind my statement of amagi barrage has higher tactical value is that amagi barrage consists of forward shooting shells. as flag ship, her barrage will roll thru frontline and hit backline

#

unlike hood barrage skips frontline, arcing shells to backline

#

giving u an edge in winning the frontline battle

#

while also doing damage to backline

slow totem
#

If the damage is tickle damage, that doesn’t bode well. People can truly practice in a week, I think, or less.

foggy token
#

ive tried in cn

#

the damage is decent on frontlines

#

backline is rather mediocre

slow totem
#

I prefer actual practice myself (so if someone asks, I can say based on personal practical experience, rather than “Because X says so”) but I’ll take your word for it as a basis for later.

foggy token
#

certainly

native mantle
#

@foggy token so what frontline would be recommended for akagami?

foggy token
#

you can always use the frontline you would use with hood akaga

#

imo, amagi works great with juneau. the damage reduction alleviates the problem where juneau taking too much damage during opening torp and dying too early.

modern tree
#

Belfast Jintsuu Aurora for maximum fox

#

Leverage the fact that Amagi barrage hits front fast and foxes exist

#

It's also a ridiculously efficient front for almost any EN lineup

modern tree
#

Also, while Amagi synergizes with Juneau, foxes specifically synergize with all out offense because your best and most reliable win condition is killing the front before second strike, at any cost

#

Healing is nice, but doesn't really help that

inland tiger
#

So bb kaga or cv kaga?

solemn gorge
#

cvcvcv

modern tree
#

PvP probably still CV. BB Kaga is good in PvE tho.

#

Coin flip barrage and weak AA will do worse in pvp than ridiculous air power

inland tiger
#

Ugh i still dont have cv kaga and im too lazy to farm when i know i can just get bb kaga when im done with the event

#

Dang it

modern tree
#

You can try it, it just won't be optimaltm

inland tiger
#

Also gold 406mm or 406mm mk6?

solemn gorge
#

mk6mk6

modern tree
#

Never gold bb guns until we get hood pr gun

inland tiger
#

Wats the difference between 45 fp and 25 anyways?

solemn gorge
#

not significant enough

inland tiger
#

Huh

#

Okay, noted

#

Tysm

solemn gorge
#

its the spread that matter iirc

#

nvm sorry

#

ammo

modern tree
#

Ammo type matters more than couple of percent damage increase 20 fp gives

#

HE is basically the only ammo you ever want to use on bbs period and pvp in general

#

Cases where you would use not HE guns for pvp are rather rare and mostly involve skill and barrage procs for Destroyers

native mantle
#

and if i dunno have a jintsuu?

inland tiger
#

Huh?

modern tree
#

You go farm her

native mantle
#

i can't just level 62

inland tiger
#

Oh

modern tree
#

Non ironic Leander?

inland tiger
#

Traditional hms fleet is pretty easy to get if u missed fw

modern tree
#

Juneau works too I guess

inland tiger
#

Wait u use bel gun on every cl for pvp right?

native mantle
#

i ahve juneau and belfast. but wouldn't i need a 4th IJN for amagi procc?

modern tree
#

But if you are 62, get Leander since Juneau is worthless in pve

#

Right

#

Jintsuu was the ijn

native mantle
#

so what IJN instead of jintsu?

modern tree
#

I sometimes forget Aurora is hms

native mantle
#

i haven't her either

modern tree
#

Truth is that IJN boats suck

inland tiger
#

Yudaichi? Ayanami?

#

Idk

native mantle
#

i haven't both but they are obtainable even with levle 62 IIRC

modern tree
#

Only good ones are the ones that are a pain in the ass to farm

#

And Ayanami that is pain in the ass to get for other reasons

native mantle
#

cause i need all 3 starter on MLB?

modern tree
#

Yep

inland tiger
#

And u need to kai her too

modern tree
#

Yeep

inland tiger
#

Yeet

#

So belfast is still usable..

native mantle
#

so belfast+juneau+aya should work if i can get her?

modern tree
#

12 bulins, 10 t3 dd bps go

#

Excuse me, add 5 more bulins to kai Ayaya

inland tiger
#

Hold on u need 4 ijn tho

#

Juneau is ijn?

modern tree
#

Amagi counts herself

inland tiger
#

Oh shiit

#

Wait thats op

modern tree
#

It's alright

native mantle
#

can i use something besides jin, aya and poi?

modern tree
#

Still need 2/3 of the fleet to be weaboo

inland tiger
#

Uh

#

Not really i think

#

The least is poi

#

Or y know, aya kain't

modern tree
#

You are probably hosed, Abukuma kai is like the only ijn I can think of that's not totally garbage

#

But I am not sure if I d run that in pvp

inland tiger
#

Isnt she a dd?

modern tree
#

She's a cl. Basically Weaboolander

inland tiger
#

Oh

#

Well amagi counting herself is pretty good tho

#

If i can somehow squeeze sodak in there

#

I enjoy using sodak

#

And wash

modern tree
#

Don't need the ijns for Amagi to work

#

It's ACTIVELY BAD to play for this passive with wasd

#

Just play normal wasd with Amagi

#

Like we are discussing, ijn ships are not very good

inland tiger
#

Why bad? 25% and that aux u get from fw is so fast

modern tree
#

Because wasd does not need it

#

Its a slugging stall comp

#

Compromising your stall to shoot faster once is just bad

pastel forge
#

frankly, no one knows for sure since its all brand new even on other server

modern tree
#

I know for sure

#

One fast shot won't make wasd as good as a frontline with Juneau

#

Not with what we have

inland tiger
#

Or maybe i could use hood n hiryu kai(is that coming soon?) N amagi?

coral wren
#

😮 why is the storyline amagi va kaga?

pastel forge
#

true, it's very unlikely that juneau-less comp will be better, but eh like all things it needs to be tested

inland tiger
#

Well the storyline also kinda tease a bc akagi

#

I think..

native mantle
#

i think its not a real battle more...trial?

coral wren
#

Oh

native mantle
#

its seems lesser about destruction more about rivals or something?

coral wren
#

Oh its a excerise

#

And a loli is holding the speech wtf

native mantle
#

aye i think nagato said that all ships need to fight to get the "strongest" ship in IJN?

#

it would make no sense that amagi fights against the IJN or her sisters with the goal to bring destruction^^

real notch
#

45 rolls after

#

:(

#

and nothing

#

:(

gritty cove
#

Roll more

real notch
#

i ran out of monies

#

:(

gritty cove
#

Did you exchange the event stuff for money

real notch
#

i got 3 SSRs

#

but they're all old shit nana_cry

modern tree
#

Beli Dura Despacito

coral wren
#

Damn, how lucky was it for me then...

modern tree
#

not as lucky as me

#

nobody was

gritty cove
#

Mine was at like 50~

modern tree
#

within 20, I saved up 80k coins to just do fuckall with them

#

She cute

coral wren
#

The question is, should i spend cubes to get dupes of her in order to save bullins..

modern tree
#

probably not, just do daily event construction on the banner

gritty cove
#

Nah the daily 3 construction is fine

modern tree
#

and burn cubes if you feel like it when the event is wrapping up

#

no point in doing it now

coral wren
#

Y, prob you are right. Damn, first event i get the key ssr on first roll..

#

I genuinely expected them to add research before event hits en

#

but if rumors are true and they are waiting for new ui to be implemented, then it sucks

modern tree
#

I didn't, but I also didnt expect this event to be on EN quite this soon

#

I am glad they are not holding the new content up on us, we still have to catch up, but new things are nice, things that arent played to death by other regions

coral wren
#

Why? Have they never tried to sync events with en up untill fw?

pastel forge
#

when did core data get added in jp anyway? before/after w11?

modern tree
#

I just thought they would keep trying to shove as much old stuff into en as possible to even things out faster

#

and core data was with w11 afaik

urban coral
#

nice, we're close

coral wren
#

Yeah, but anyway accelerating the pace on en would be amazing. When you look at other gachas and see how en region struggles there to catch up and you realize it won't ever happen because devs are assholes, you start thinking al is actually one of the best gachas atm if not the best for en

real notch
#

yea i think i used around 70-80k gold

#

now i'm living on poverty

#

to make things worse amagi is fukin roll exclusive so she has to get rolled

modern tree
#

I generally live in poverty because I kai everything to keep my collection percentage up because I make poor choices in things I feel competitive about

pastel forge
#

I had 25k gold at the start of event, got amagi, literally my luckiest event yet

devout shale
#

Hey guys, what should i use on my unicorn for this event?

#

recently moved her to lvl 100

slow totem
#

Typical Unicorn stuff.

#

Double Catapult, Reppuu/Seafang/Hellcat, Barracuda, and Bofors.

devout shale
#

alright, thank you

strange shuttle
#

did this event change the pvp meta setup?

slow totem
#

Amagi’s kinda nice.

modern tree
#

Amagi will probably make wasd even more popular because shes a shoein to a slugging fleet like that

#

aside for that, foxes will probably rise in popularity also because her barrage has torps and tags the front and fires hella fast all of which foxes like

#

proooobably not much else?

strange shuttle
#

so if we do her and 2 foxes dont we need 2 more frontline to match? the 10-4 ship is good regardleess, who would be the rest?

modern tree
#

she counts herself

#

you only need Jintsuu

#

frontline will most likely be Belfast Jintsuu Aurora

#

because nothing else makes much sense

strange shuttle
#

ok so if i try that, 2 foxes jintssuu , who for the last 2 slots?

#

ah

#

okay ill try that when i raise them4

#

i got the retro done, just need raise amagi and ability lvs

modern tree
#

Amagi has 3 abilities, it will take weeks to rise her laffeyDrink

strange shuttle
#

for 10-10-10 sure but you can start at atound 7 or so

#

to 5-7 dont take that long

modern tree
#

I mean, I am planning on doing 7-7-7 and then maxing them one by one

strange shuttle
#

i dont like moving gear around , so if i do a new pvp setup, like it perminant, though a new frontline wont stop me keeping elradge geared and such, i think i need to degear hod for her

#

speaking of

#

whats her main gun? same as hood?

modern tree
#

yea, has to be

slow totem
#

If you have 4 IJN bote, inc herself and gold FCR, I can see the merit of her using the 406mk6

#

Just a theory

modern tree
#

with 410 and her ability you can probably barrage twice before 2nd fox strike which should help slaying vanguard quite a bit

grave gale
#

Wouldn't Amagi, Akagi and Kaga be flat out better than Hood with the foxes?

modern tree
#

I mean

slow totem
#

I dunno, Hood’s barrage focuses on backline and she boosts reload of herself and the foxes.

modern tree
#

theoretically her barrage helps your win condition

#

by hitting the front

slow totem
#

Amagi has far less HP and shittier AA.

modern tree
#

which is better than pressuring the back

#

but she fragile af

#

and you will need to run her flagship to reap the benefits

Yeah. 1.2k HP difference from Hood.

#

That’s big, esp in PvP where the values are inflated

modern tree
#

so she might be better than hood in akaga, but it remains to be seen

slow totem
#

I can see her dropping dead or barely alive from a SoDak Focused Assault proc.

modern tree
#

she is defo better than hood or enterprise in wasd tho

slow totem
#

WASD without E lacks the ability to bamboozle wipe out a vanguard tho.

modern tree
#

doesnt need it

slow totem
#

Amagi’s barrage can’t replace Lucky E.

modern tree
#

2 flanking barrages and making your already ridiculously tanky backline even more ridiculously tanky is pretty good. Sodaks Aegis helps her poor defensive stats a bit. Wasd has really high AA to compensate for her poor AA.

slow totem
#

Aegis’ wonky timing works to her detriment it seems hmmm

#

Only one way to find out

#

But 3 skills omfg. GWqlabsFacepalm

#

Weeks.

modern tree
#

Enterprise is alright, but dude, 9% offensive stat reduction and 10% evasion rate for backline with a pretty fucking handy burn damage reduction

#

benefit multiplied further by Juneau heal and Pearl heal

#

70% to do a thing vs a static, pretty significant health increase on a fleet that is already durable beyond reason

#

"but where is the damage"

#

3 BBs will set the world on fire

grave gale
slow totem
#

HMS would be pretty legit against that, to snipe her out since her skills are specifically said to be active if she’s alive only.

modern tree
#

Foxes and HMS which are the only contestants outside of the mirror really cant deal with it

#

see

slow totem
#

Derp, jinx

modern tree
#

the problem with HMS sniping anything is the evasion rate, burn damage resistance and aegis parrying second salvo of HMS

slow totem
#

And HMS CLs (Belfast, LeanderXD, USS Juneau/Aurora for maximum Jesus) with multiple smokescreens buffed by QE would win the vanguard fight.

#

Well, lots of stuff to do

modern tree
#

she has thousand more health than enterprise with the same armour class, which is resistant to Warspite

slow totem
#

Wait... doesn’t AP do good against anything but light armor?

modern tree
#

BB AP is 30% damage vs light

slow totem
#

She has medium, which is weak to AP.

modern tree
#

wait, that is correct

#

she is

#

hmm

#

Well, Enterprise needs a magic touch to die, in one salvo

#

if Juneau dies between salvos, Amagi is not dying until a third because of the Aegis

#

thats a lot of damage pervented

slow totem
#

Gotta keep Juneau alive. sandyMeme

#

Or.

#

Kill her right out

#

With torp memes

#

And no E or Foxes, don’t have to worry too much about being wiped.

modern tree
#

oh, you do, actually

#

if you break the frontline fast, then your frontline dies to 127mm and then sodak can just solo you with one focused ASS

#

its really obnoxious

slow totem
#

thinkpitz better to just use HMS CLs then.

modern tree
#

but if you break the frontline slow then juneau wil get better heal

#

its just not favourable

slow totem
#

Ignore Juneau by gimping your frontline’s offensive power. I have done that before.

#

With frontlines still existing, WASD will also waste shots on them.

modern tree
#

just play Deutschland with her special gun and fire at the backline instead loool

slow totem
#

200IQ

modern tree
#

I will play this fleet until more people do and then I will try to find a way to beat it, but I am not optimistic

#

wasd anything with cancer frontline is already strong, but if they start taking 9% less damage from the game start, well... laffeyDrink

#

dont forget the new destroyer with another backline tank skill

#

except hers gives 10% reduc from CL and DD attacks

#

I was thinking of aurora cause he's using foxes

vague token
#

so she's a good pick

modern tree
#

I know Jintsuu exists but she is actually quite fragile when up front

#

and Aurora has no tank

#

so Aurora would go over helena prolly

odd schooner
#

Aurora can die after 10s

vague token
#

xD

bright raven
#

would like jintsuu but she wont drop for me xD

#

if i were to replace Helena would something be better than Enty?

modern tree
#

if you replaced helena with Aurora, nah

#

I mean, you can try Amagi

#

once shes high enough level

bright raven
#

....if she drops too xD but definitely looking forward to putting here in the fleet

silver folio
#

I wouldnt run Helena for just enty

#

Bette off replacing eldu and Helena with Juneau aurira

dull hollow
modern tree
#

yes, this is the new strongest fleet, welcome to the namagi meta

dull hollow
#

can it outgun HMS tho

that's the most important question

#

if it does that shifts both hms and nakaga 1 tier down

#

kinda doubt it tho

#

amagi target selection

#

is pretty bad

#

you need one frontline to be dead to get the full effect

#

and IJN cant abuse suicide tactics like FW can

#

I'll have to try it out

#

close to finishing my amagi

#

maybe centaur can leverage the frontline busting

modern tree
#

I mean, Hyuuga is there, but it could be Taiho, Hiryuu Kai, or other IJN ship because all you need is one to get Amagi to shoot fast

dull hollow
#

taihou is awful

modern tree
#

with Hiryuu Kai probably being the most ridiculous one

dull hollow
#

hiryuu kai is pretty funny

#

i think ill try centaur first tho

#

and see if amagi's FCR effect lets her catch centaur's debuff

#

also could go with monarch to abuse more barrages KMR

lone pendant
#

lol wat

modern tree
#

monarch qe hood probably has the best shot against this meme? it's probably still inconsistent considering how strong just plainly taking 9% less damage is

dull hollow
#

eh

#

hood is worse than centaur

modern tree
#

makes monarch shoot faster

dull hollow
#

doenst matter

monarch with FCR alrady shoots twice before 2nd fox launch

#

centaur gives team more utility and damage

#

hood needs a 2nd FCR to be on par with centaur

modern tree
#

you can do that with 410 and you probably have hoodgun so yeah I believe you

dull hollow
#

because then both ships can fire twice

#

before fox launch

#

important to note is that monarch's 2nd shelling catches centaur's buff

#

and if she got chunked

#

even her debuff

#

so ur 2nd volley is pretty gross

#

monarch actually pretty annoying to deal with on defense

you need yukikaze and junny or ur just stuck praying lmao

modern tree
#

I still think that pushing through Hyuuga is gonna be easier than through Hiryuu kai, someone thought that giving a ship that gets 15 seconds invulnerablity with extra strike Enterprise stats and efficencies is a good idea, thats before nagato buff

dull hollow
#

yeah it's definitely a comp to be on the lookout for that's for sure

#

lots of new things changing

#

all IJN

modern tree
#

wasd with amagi just for the protection is probably competitive against everything that isnt NAmagi + something

dull hollow
#

hmm

#

will have to see

#

FW lets u abuse suicide strat

#

which amagi is really happy about

modern tree
#

its probably gonna just end up being Nagato release, the great sequel, where people have to play it or just reset until they get lucky, oh well

dull hollow
#

amagi's target selection is vastly improved

#

as long as

#

one frontline is dead

#

i dont think amagi is nearly as onesided as nagato

#

and EN will never have to face nagato without a solution

#

since you guys got FW super early

#

FW is really strong into nagaka

#

as long as you play suicide strat

modern tree
#

what is the strat exactly?

dull hollow
#

put squishy ships as frontline

#

have them die asap

#

FW trades very poorly when both frontlines are a live

#

FW also only comp that can survive backline abuse uncut

#

so the best option is to get rid of your frontline

#

within reason

#

idealy u want them to die right after

#

the first nakaga strike

modern tree
#

right, so you just want to trade some blows, have your front die off and your BB aux wipe their front so you can shell the shit out of them, could have figured

dull hollow
#

yah

#

but if u try that strat vs HMS

#

FW's naturally low damage ends up getting exposed

#

FW is just super strong into nagaka

#

everything else...

#

not so much

modern tree
#

Amagi might help because flat 10% evasion rate and fire damage reduction on top of just 9% flat offensive stat reduction for every enemy ship

dull hollow
#

it would be super funny if amagi works best in FW lmao

#

i wouldnt even be mad

modern tree
#

I mean, this ship feels designed to fuck with pvp, so here we have it, its fucking with pvp

@foggy token theres suicide wasdwith amagi tho

that d oesnt scale with fp gear

gained flat 20% fper buff when sodak in fleet, reduce sodaks damage taken by 10%
