This is why I don’t run E against E

Should i throw ayanami

#

make sure you're running 410s if that's wasd+e, using 410s rarely run into double e lategames

lunar veldt
#

aynami nuke for u?

#

aya on off

#

junny on def

slow totem
#

Yeah, it was months ago.

#

I’ve embraced the 410mm master race ever since

azure aurora
#

Yes sometimes aya torp cut 50% backrow hp

dull elm
#

yeah thats gg if it happens

azure aurora
#

And left Vanguard enemy intact

lunar veldt
#

u mean THATS RESET

dull elm
#

no its win

slow totem
#

Big if, but like Casino, it feels good if it happens.

#

Not good for long term stress tho

azure aurora
#

And juneau enemy survive

slow totem
dull elm
#

enemy backline ded is more important than vanguard ded

lunar veldt
#

ironic how junny survives when the rest of your frontline dies

azure aurora
slow totem
#

The more RNG you stack on top of your comp, the more additional stress stacked with each match.

Wow, someone already 100 bakaga

Normal kaga

lunar veldt
azure aurora
#

I swear qipao cv skin make her look like bb version

lunar veldt
#

Skill voices overlapping each other, which end with akagi's laughter, utter mess

#

Not complaining though the skill spam flooding the screen is kinda nice

azure aurora
#

Instead jintsuu im using Jesus

pastel forge
#

I was secretly hoping amagi would slap akagi before her laugh if used in same fleet, but alas

modern tree
#

need yatsen and ning, ping to cover the entire screen with text

azure aurora
#

Either jintsuu with aya or belfast with juneau, not creative pvp fleet

#

Mostly later

slow totem
#

Amagi and Kaga look disappointed at Akagi

lunar veldt

“There’s always this one...”

Damn, defeat your foe through sheer text

Still no yat sen on EN kisaaa

slow totem
#

She is a bit of a troll

modern tree
#

just give me Dork so I can max it and then get upset that Amagi makes HMS too weak without Monarch and PR guns

#

its about time for winters crown

lunar veldt
#

So QE retrofit when?

azure aurora
#

Neva

lunar veldt
#

At least give her a barrage like nagato

modern tree
#

they teased something on jp twitter

azure aurora
#

Idc at least raise her rarity

lunar veldt
#

It's either

modern tree
#

regarding qe and warspite

#

so

azure aurora
#

Legendary warspitesandyMeme

lunar veldt
#

QE, Warsprtie, London, Edinburgh

modern tree
#

UR Warspite, pls

lunar veldt
#

Cuz the others are QE's servant

azure aurora
#

Bela dura despacito

lunar veldt
#

Some guy ask for Belfast retrofit

azure aurora
#

Belfast already perfect

#

Unless they change her to mgm+1

modern tree
#

I am still kind of amazed how both Hood and QE manage to stay relevant in pvp despite the power creep we are experiencing, Amagi having 3 fucking skills and all of them broken in different way

azure aurora
#

But no mgm +1 HMS

lunar veldt
#

Or give her Neptune and Phoenix skill

#

Hms zombie

azure aurora
#

1 neptune is enough

#

[headnod]

lunar veldt
subtle whale

warpsite gets +1 mgm for future retro heh

odd schooner
#

I found current number 2 guy a good def to test on

#

Too good i had to actually pause to take pics

#

I'll do a lot after dinner

@balmy torrent do the baguette

modern tree
#

horryfying

crystal coral
#

Do you know any guides out there about fleet arrangements?

hybrid tendon
#

yes

modern tree
#

we have pandas guide that is a pretty good resource for what people are using to an effect in pvp I guess

modern tree
#

She probably is, Bucky is mostly a defensive buff

#

also Kagerou has like 500 torp stat base

#

Bucky has actually higher torp and efficency than Kagerou pre Kai, but chain torps

finite valve
#

overkill torp is only good if you manage to hit or nuke 1 front / back in the first volley

modern tree
#

overkill torps is really good if you have BBs in the back ready to take the game over once your frontline suicides in a nuclear blast

#

yeeep

finite valve
#

i run ayaya jintsuu and eldirge

modern tree
#

just blow the torps, die, bbs kill their front, you win the game because wasd amagi

finite valve
#

tfw you have 2 ayaya in 1 fleet

#

lol

#

sometime eldrige proc time with enemy CV strike

#

just gravy lol

#

full torp front is too meme for me tbh

#

either kill or be kill in first salvo

modern tree
#

It still shouldnt matter for wasd amagi

#

because both frontlines being dead means you win

#

torps being a meme is just a cherry on top

finite valve
#

still using enty for wasd

#

amagi don't have enough lvl in skill to do shit

#

and even then i still think that enty > amagi

#

if both front are death enty going to win 100% of the time if her skill proc

modern tree
#

the main draw of running Amagi instead is barrage that hits backliners pretty damn hard and she can push out like 2 of them before anyone else gets a chance to shoot. That is on top of trading blows favourably due to opponents offensive stats being lowered and 10% dodge rate flat on the backline. Proccing Enterprise on an empty field will win you the game, but also its slow and boring, and she might not even get a chance to do that

finite valve
#

that's a fair point but my enjoyment of this game is in pve and not pvp anyway

#

but if you like pvp i might see that using amagi is fun for you

modern tree
#

whats a point of taking a voice in discussion if you have no interest in it ayaya

finite valve
#

because at the end of the day the point of pvp is to win

#

effectively i might add

odd schooner
#

10 match test so far
On defense:
Deadrel: Wasd Hood Juneau Belfast Fortune
Fleet used: Akaga Amagi (lvl9 red slvl1 blue and yellow) Jintsuu Aurora Ayanami
Game 1 - Lose
Game 2 - Lose
Game 3 - Lose
Game 4 - Lose
Game 5 - Lose
Game 6 - Lose
Game 7 - Close but still lost
Game 8 - Win
Game 9 - Win
Game 10 - Lose

Enemy frontline gets shredded quickly but problem is when it gets to the backline, allied vanguard gets shreded by 3 BB/C while Allied Main fleet gets bombarded by 2 406mm purple and 1 410mm

#

Must be a good time to test akaga hood too

finite valve
#

so in that case enty > amagi is a better choice considering the discussion was about meme torp front

slow totem
#

If the Enemy has Enty too, I’d avoid using Enty for the sole reason of not dabbling in Red Dead Enteredemption 2.

finite valve
#

yes but the discussion was never about enty but rather amagi + torp front meme

odd schooner
#

Torp fleet without aurora eh thinkZed

finite valve
#

dk about you but aurora really does not pose a threat to my front

#

granted maybe they are un optimize

odd schooner
#

No i mean in offensive

finite valve
#

oh

#

well i don't have aurora

#

so there is that

#

lol

slow totem
#

Aurora on defense is actually meh if you have vape ships (Cygnet, Leander, etc).

lunar veldt
#

we dont have enough burst damage to bust down WASD backine

odd schooner
#

I haven't tried the swap positioning of amagi to wash but i guess I'll try it after I'm done with hood test

#

She hits 2 backline with a portion of the barrage

#

Ye we need 11 more days

#

Or 12

lunar veldt
#

no one tried Bkaga with akagi and amagi?

odd schooner
#

For full potential

lunar veldt
#

cuz Bkaga triggers akagi's skill

slow totem
#

Even in JP, IriyaBaker confirme that WASD E/Essex/Amagi busts down NaKaGa, hard.

odd schooner
#

B kaga proc is too low

slow totem
#

The comp is made to cuck fox users.

lunar veldt
#

but than agiain still not ebnough

#

yeah rng proc

odd schooner
#

It's the hard counter

lunar veldt
#

wait isnt essex skill rng?

odd schooner
#

No

lunar veldt
#

resets are generally not great

odd schooner
#

You would still fall to reset if you eat nagamon big7

#

Twice i think

slow totem
#

WASD is the best cucker defense fleet cause the sole purpose of denying fast wins.

And why do people run foxes? For fast wins, and if you deny them those fast wins, you’ve already ‘won’ regardless of match results.

#

And with the arrival of Hiryuu Kai, the cuck just got cuckier.

odd schooner
#

If you made the offensive team go past 40s, you win

finite valve
#

before amagi was a think ain't nagaka was the go to comp for everything anyway?

lunar veldt
#

everyone knows nakaga gives fast wins on off

odd schooner
#

That's about it

#

In EN at least

slow totem
#

Not really, with the arrival of WASD Essex/Hiryuu Kai, NaKaGa’s throne is challenged.

lunar veldt
#

oh yeah

#

hiryu kai

finite valve
#

challenged but not overthrown

lunar veldt
#

forgot bout her

odd schooner
#

Just hope you don't eat 2 big7

#

That skill hurts

finite valve
#

since ppl still use them regardless

#

be it off or def

slow totem
#

Overthrown. WASD Hiryuu Kai will not make you get those fast wins.

finite valve
#

that was after the bunnies kai

slow totem
#

No matter what, and if they force a reset, with Hiryuu Kai’s Enterprise-level power, even begter.

finite valve
#

i was talking about before bunnies kai and amagi

slow totem
#

If you win slow with NaKaGa, you’re already lost.

finite valve
#

i know that meta change after they got introduce

pastel forge
#

at least now I have a reason not to invest in akaga emileSip

finite valve
#

i was talking about before amagi and bunnies

lunar veldt
#

not really a huge change

slow totem
#

WASD Essex was the ultimate fox cucker before bunnies.

finite valve
#

since at that time ppl already got wasd

#

yet ppl still use nagaka anyway

lunar veldt
#

top pvp players on my server still use nakaga

#

not sure bout CN though

slow totem
#

Well yeah, cause not everyone has tryhard defense fleet specifically made to counter Foxes.

lunar veldt
#

ive seen top players with china fleet

slow totem
#

Like me, my ‘defense’ fleet is Kimono fleet, idgaf lol.

lunar veldt
#

then again

odd schooner
#

We could ask aris if he's awake

lunar veldt
#

everyone can get top 10 if u time your pvp

odd schooner
#

He's CN

slow totem
#

As long as you don’t miss/lose too much matches

#

You’re guaranteed a Gensui

#

Ez peezy lemon squeezy

lunar veldt
#

just try to fight the left side

odd schooner
#

The only time it becomes important is that if you miss a few

finite valve
#

tbh after i got fleet admiral

odd schooner
slow totem
#

Always win the leftmost side.

finite valve
#

i stop caring

#

nice bonus to have

#

not really a must anymore

slow totem
#

Yeah, if you miss 5 or more, gotta go very precise sniping at incredible hihg speed

finite valve
#

but it is nice to discuss about pvp meta lel

odd schooner
#

That's why you gotta have at least one trump card just in case bad things happen

finite valve
#

trump card = lvl all team comp

#

1 comp lose use other comp

#

lol

slow totem
#

#200IQ

#

Never be a one-trick pony

lunar veldt
#

so we esports now?

slow totem
#

We Dota 2 Now

odd schooner
#

EN will never be

lunar veldt
#

are we esports yet?

finite valve
#

@slow totem most professional player are 1 trick pony lol

lunar veldt
#

haha

#

one trick fleets

odd schooner
#

Heard other EN servers are having hard time going competitive

slow totem
#

@finite valve I beg to disagree for Dota 2 since I play and watch the pro scene.

finite valve
#

yeh dota is kindda diverse

slow totem
#

Most of the time, the championships are won by teams who can use unusual comps.

odd schooner
#

Cause def fleet is mostly hood enterprise lusty comp

finite valve
#

due to it flexible

#

lol however not really

slow totem
#

Since if you use meta comps, everyone and their mother knows how to counter said comp.

#

Can’t speak about LoL since I only read doujins and collect loods.

finite valve
#

i watch both but not really in depth

#

but yeh dota is too diverse for any specific comp

slow totem
#

And “meme” builds actually won pro matches.

#

E.g: Omniknight Mid Carry

finite valve
#

cus ppl have no idea on how to deal with it

slow totem
#

Precisely!

finite valve
#

since dota is about the early and mid game

slow totem
#

#Bamboozled

finite valve
#

if you can out farm the enemy team you are already won

slow totem
#

That’s LoL

#

Dota has incredibly punishing anti-snowball mechanics

#

LoL, you snowball, you win.

finite valve
#

imo that's pretty much the case in dota

odd schooner
#

@lunar veldt does jp always have those big wall def fleets on top 100

finite valve
#

but hey not like i follow much in either dota or lol

#

just free time to waste

slow totem
#

Snowballs exist in every MOBA, but Dota is quite punishing to snowball building. Which is good,

#

BIG DICC 15K DEFENSE FLEET

finite valve
#

i quit both

#

so yeh

odd schooner
#

No more like the stall fleets

slow totem
#

LoL has nice character designs tho... far better than dota

odd schooner
#

Or PR fleets

finite valve
#

@slow totem spotted the anime weeb

odd schooner
#

No actually i think we can deal with pr fleets but idk

slow totem
#

shuddup weeeeeeb!!

finite valve
lunar veldt
#

@odd schooner depends on what server you are on

odd schooner
#

I see

lunar veldt
#

some servers just use their waifus

odd schooner
#

So it's like EN

lunar veldt
#

on the def

finite valve
#

amagi monarch and maybe enty?

lunar veldt
#

ive seen weird fleets

#

ive seen amagi izumo and a freaking south dak

slow totem
#

I show off skins, parading as a fashion designer.

lunar veldt
#

like wtf

subtle whale
#

what about the op

finite valve
#

lol izumo in pvp

#

free win

lunar veldt
#

ikr

subtle whale
#

ark royal destroyer build

odd schooner
#

But there are more sandbaggers in jp right. Knowing they are punctual at all times

lunar veldt
#

but mostly nakagas are on the top 10s

slow totem
#

And then lose against meme fleets, and then you question the meaning of existence

subtle whale
#

izumo looks really bad with her blue skill

finite valve
#

lol

lunar veldt
#

well pvp is like rock paper scissors

#

WASD counters Nakaga, while Nakaga counters hms, while HMS shreds WASD

finite valve
#

that is talking about doy + monarch i assume

odd schooner
#

Centaur Monarch i think

finite valve
#

cus hms atm in EN anyway are shit

lunar veldt
#

i use monarch/QE/Centaur

odd schooner
#

See

lime rivet
#

Reminder: WASDHiryuu, Juneau/Eldridge/Belfast

#

ultimate cuck fleet

#

or sub eldridge for like, fortkai or something

lunar veldt
#

wait wont eldrifge get burst down on the other servers?

finite valve
#

wonder what went into the devs mind giving a ship 15s of immunity?

odd schooner
#

Ye sadly

pastel forge
#

I will max hiryuu after im done with amagi, troll intensifies

finite valve
#

even enty got a 70% chance

lunar veldt
#

theres a reason why u hardly see eldridge

#

on JP CN

odd schooner
#

Aurora

finite valve
#

hiryuu is basically immortal for 15s

odd schooner

Sendai

#

Those 2

#

finite valve

let alone give her a free air strike

#

gg

lime rivet
#

one of my most annoying games

#

was when my backline triggered hiryuu's immunity....before my frontline killed juneau

#

a pearled juneau

finite valve
#

sendai + aurora + jintsuu = dead eldridge lol

lunar veldt
#

yeah instead of eldridge

odd schooner

slow totem

i mean what unit isnt t0 cus of thier skills

finite valve
#

well being name the lucky ship does not help lol

pastel forge
#

also very high luck, makes her eva even more annoying

slow totem
#

She is the only ship of her class to survive until the end of the war. Make sense.

finite valve

@subtle whale ayaya being t0 due to her stat alone

i am only got 3

slow totem

but that is enough

#

since i don't use def fleet

slow totem
#

With Amagi, it will work.

finite valve
#

you need PR if you want full eva

#

the gold rudder

slow totem
#

The Clock thingy

finite valve
#

look more like a mini rudder to me

#

you can't "farm" PR bp

#

due to it being too RNG

#

also you need quest for that

#

not to mention the pool is big af

#

bp from normal pool + event pool + PR pool

#

gl trying to "farm" them

#

you get them by doing specific PR quest which will reward gear gold bp on complete but like i said the pool is big af so pray to your god lol

that jew cat look more like a devil then a god to me

those skill are ship specific skill not fleet wide

coral wren
#

what auxes to use on amagi? when using her with foxes ?

#

GOLD FCR + Beaver/SG cant decide

#

my vanguard is jintsuu ayaya and aurora and I dont think they want to use beaver

coral wren
#

Should i use

Amagi, Akagi, Kaga

or

Hood, Akagi, Kaga

??

please tell me what you think

#

I think Amagi, Akagi and Kaga

#

is this good

modern tree
#

Try it and tell us

lunar veldt
#

wah

#

yeah try it

coral wren
#

my enemy is only 11k fleet power

lunar veldt
#

just try and see how far u can goi

coral wren
#

enty washy warspite XD

lunar veldt
#

true test is the WASD comp at high 11k

coral wren
#

retard comp vs retard comp

lunar veldt
#

so just keep testing

coral wren
#

gonna refresh to find a wasd comp

lunar veldt
#

a good one*

coral wren
#

thats gonna be hard. ppl arent putting their real fleets untill its time for gensui

real notch
#

good wasd comps are 13k+

#

best twinfox combo so far is twinfox + enterprise

#

@coral wren probably swap hood for south dakota

coral wren
#

no I want full barrage team

#

I am still lvling my BBkaga to replace washy

real notch
#

@coral wren either amagi + foxes or enterprise + foxes

coral wren
#

3 main gun proc barrages innocentpepe

lunar veldt
#

enjoy filling up the screen with skills

real notch
#

that's not going to be very strong

coral wren
#

and torp memes vanguard

#

I am just playing around with the comps xd

real notch
#

xd

coral wren
#

my favorite comp so far is AMagi and foxes

#

@real notch why not

#

@balmy torrent do you think amagi + akagi + kaga would work better than hood + akagi + kaga?

real notch
#

why not ?

#

as in why not hood + foxes?

coral wren
#

Have you even tested out?

#

amagi + akagi + kaga is sure better than hood + akagi + kaga

#

And also you prob haven‘t tested it out.

lunar veldt
#

emileSip amakaga deals with front line way better than hood

#

and debuffs too

real notch
#

there's no need for testing

lunar veldt
#

generally she is better than hood in everyway

#

hur hur better reload

real notch
#

just look at the ships lol

#

amagi grants a 10%/9% firepower, torpedo, airstrike, fire dmg defensive buff and a +10% EVA

lunar veldt
#

hood and foxes are pretty outdated

#

hood itself is pretty outdated if u use her on anything besides HMS

coral wren
#

^

modern tree
#

HMS is dead

real notch
#

she fires 45% faster on first salvo with hood which is like something 9-13sec fire

#

hood just boosts reload

#

and has 1k more HP

#

the reload buff is almost neglible

#

there's no need to test whether amagi is better than hood in the context of foxes

#

amagi is objectively better than hood in every single matchup in that comp

lunar veldt
#

meta will still be WASD stall

real notch
#

yeah wasd is still more consistent

lunar veldt
#

like i have said many times we dont have the burst damage to bust down WASD

real notch
#

but, i feel like they might not be the strongest fleet

lunar veldt
#

even on CN WASD works very well against ijn

#

rock paper scissors

modern tree
#

heh

#

na

lunar veldt
#

WASD gets shredded by HMS comps

#

that are not of EN server

modern tree
#

CN has made another tier list which is less meme

real notch
#

hold on lemme post some data

lunar veldt
#

huh

real notch
#

gotta hit sub rank 100 first to take the screenshots

lunar veldt
#

oh hiryu kai

#

cmon we all know once her kai come out

modern tree
#

I read the post on bilibili, apparently teams that arent t0 have about 10% winrate against it at most

lunar veldt
#

she will change the meta a little

real notch
coral wren
#

so in results, you rather me to use hood with akagi+kaga

real notch
lunar veldt
#

@modern tree u got that list from CN wiki?

#

oh wait bili

@lunar veldt i played 13 games so i'm pretty sure his enterprise procced

lmao

lunar veldt

not bad

real notch

@coral wren dump prinz and laffey

lunar veldt

nice winrates

pastel forge
#

his vanguard isnt optimal for wasd def right? as in it can be better

real notch
#

no his vanguard was sitting at optimal BiS maxed

#

mine is 13005 and BiS maxed (affection + gear)

lunar veldt
#

no juneau no party

pastel forge
#

composition I mean, he use aya no juneau

real notch
#

his is 13075 with ayanami so

#

it's sitting at BiS maxed range

#

ohh

coral wren
#

Should i get ayanami + juneau + belfast instead of laffey + prinz + belfast?

lunar veldt
#

WASD excells with Juneau

coral wren
#

@real notch

real notch
#

no, ayanami is pretty valid

#

given my 13 tests there were a few times when ayanami did land torps

#

juneau is good too but usually just gets torped to death = overheal @pastel forge

coral wren
#

might you tell me a good vanguard fleet then?

real notch
#

just get my vanguard

#

i've already done the testing xd

coral wren
#

On your current fleet?

real notch
#

belfast, jintsuu, aurora

coral wren
#

oof i‘m only lvl.59 xD

modern tree
#

I think Jintsuu Aya Aurora is alright for wasd because you should be able to trade favourably when both vanguards are dead, so you either kill with torps or suicide and kill with Aux guns. It might not be "optimal" but its valid.

coral wren
#

I might get Aurora and retrofit jintsuu in future

real notch
#

uhh

#

good alternatives are like

pastel forge
#

I think for wasd e def, something like bel juneau jintsuu is the current optimal one

coral wren
#

I need a lvl.60 vanguard xD

real notch
#

cleveland, eldridge, fortune, juneau

#

all pretty decent ships @coral wren

sturdy zephyr

@lunar veldt Zwave

lunar veldt
coral wren
#

kk

lunar veldt
#

best way is to always nuke juneau first

#

to trigger the overheal

#

not sure about people who put her at mid or back though

native mantle
#

isn't she useless if she died to early?

lunar veldt
#

yes

coral wren
lunar veldt
#

ive seen some people hiding juneau \

real notch
#

juneau is useless in top or bottom slot

coral wren
#

Is retrofit Ayanami or retrofit Jintsuu better?

real notch
#

people still haven't really learned to put her mid yet

lunar veldt
#

yeah

real notch
#

taking people sooo long to realize

#

yea, looks pretty good @coral wren

#

i would swap enterprise out of mid slot

#

and move belfast to bottom

pastel forge
#

ye most still put Juneau front

coral wren

kk

slap fortune in middle

lunar veldt

belfast at the back now thats rare

And now i need to lvl up fortnute

Damn i mispelled with fortnut

I just realized its lvl1 fortune uniFlex

btw if anyone is in avrora someone plz fight me

#

i need more testing material

#

need to find out if i should use ryuusei on enterprise or banana

coral wren
real notch
#

uhh

#

considering your current fleet, this is what i would use:
twin 127mm
quad magtorp
bofors
toolkit
toolkit/boiler

#

I will be honest, with 2 DDs you are probably just going to get slain by first Aurora fleet you stumble on

real notch
#

what server are u in btw?

#

because even in avrora

#

aurora/jintsuu fleets are still so rare

damn lazy kids

coral wren

I‘m on sandy server

numbah one

real notch
#

oh

modern tree
#

watashiwa easy games

real notch
#

idk about sandy xd my guess is probably not many aurora/jintsuu fleets

#

daxam is right though, running too many DDs will make you weak to aurora

modern tree
#

Sandy is all Illustrous Hood, Enterprise meta, I wish I was joking

I fight like 3 fleets like this per reset

lunar veldt
#

where my washington server bois at?

real notch
#

daaamn illustrious hood enterprise sandyMeme

#

delicious fleets

modern tree
#

its either just sandbag fleets or someone fooled entire Sandy server

coral wren
#

Do I put jintsuu or aurora or ayaya at front?

#

They are like equally squishy

real notch
#

probably ayaya tbh

lunar veldt
#

might as well go all in with aya

modern tree
#

my current oponents are wash illu enty, hood illu enty, sandbag and wasde with poi and ayaya #Sandy

lunar veldt
#

cuz of nuke potential

real notch
#

ayaya is like a condom, you shoot your load and then she's useless

lunar veldt
#

well said

real notch
#

if you want ur 3 ships to survive you can use jintsuu Think

coral wren
#

She survives quite ok unless I ma up against foxes

real notch
#

she has 20% dmg reduction

lunar veldt
#

the selling point for her to be at the front

#

is the first torpedo

coral wren
#

Does torps shot out accordingxto their positions?

#

I mean the preloaded ones

lunar veldt
#

so once she blows she goes

coral wren
#

i‘ll use jintsuu when i finally reach stage 10

real notch
#

they shoot out in order of cooldown Waaaaaaaah

coral wren
#

I‘m only lvl 60 oof

#

Hmm so even with prelewded torps at beginning they shoot in order from how long their cd is?

#

I am using rainbow torp on ayaya so she might shoot slower than the gold quads

real notch
#

prelewded

#

xd

lunar veldt
#

doesnt matter if the ships collide at the start

real notch
#

you should be using rainbow on ayanam itho

coral wren
#

Yea thats why I worry ayayas torps will shoot out later

#

Since rainbow is quint with longer reload

#

But she has 30 more reload stat than other 2

lunar veldt
#

who cares most frontlines will be dead after the first airstrike

#

if your first torp salvo lends

real notch
#

yea well Shrug

coral wren
#

Usually kills one vanguard and dmges other 2 and then missed torps hits backline

lunar veldt
#

smol if

coral wren
#

Quite nice tbh xD

#

Is beaver a must use in pvp ?

real notch
#

pretty much yea

modern tree
#

preloaded torps shoot in the order of the ships, tank shoots first, then mid, then rear

lunar veldt
#

gotta go fast

#

miight as well meme

coral wren
#

Any idea who to use it on?

lunar veldt
#

and stack boilers

real notch
#

anyone with low EVA

coral wren
#

Amagi foxes. Jintsuu ayaya aurora

modern tree
#

you can easily test it by equiping any equipment skin on your middle ship

coral wren
#

Oh

real notch
#

just consider beaver badge is +35 EVA, the #1 EVA aux in thegame

#

the #2 best is +17 EVA

coral wren
#

Hmm so jintsuu i guess

#

Since she is tanking front

lunar veldt
#

thinkpitz its up to u

coral wren
#

I was using veaver on my amagi xd

lunar veldt
#

just keep testing till u are satisfied

#

we are not esports ready yet so warShrug

coral wren
#

Lol xD

real notch
#

yea if i'm running BBs i put beaver on them

#

the EVA is a big help

#

that's what i do AquaDerp

#

SG radar is definitely BiS

#

whoever has more SGs wins basically RELATABLE

#

atm in CN/JP the meta is huge capital ship dmg due to nagato + foxes (at least pre-doggo)

#

that's why sodak traditionally has the badge

#

but that doesn't make much sense for me in EN

#

there's not enough damage to overkill sodak, and keeping washington alive is more key than sodak

#

so with that reasoning i put badge on washington

#

xd it's not that bad, just use enterprise

#

saves u SG s

#

i'm c3 too GWahreeVampySmug

hot creek
#

C3 dropping bofors prints like crazy

#

I don't even need them

#

they're just extra at this point

lofty smelt

I'll take them. I haven't gotten any in 70 clears or so

real notch
#

Ye it is pretty satisfying

elder crane

Conversely, so frustrating when your BBs just ignore the backline, try to hit the vanguard, and miss every shot kisaaa

coral wren

not so good. taking way too long to kill a 13k wasd backline

hollow flame
#

Which gears are recommended to +10?

#

I have been stocking up on blueprints and havent used them for a long time

modern tree
#

It's probably best to level gear you are using sandyparty

hollow flame
#

Im using random yellow gears i got

#

Dont think its advised to max them as they might not be the best gears for my ships

coral wren
#

Look at Aripandas guide

#

I follow it for most stuffs and then mix abit

hollow flame
#

Aright thanks

modern tree
#

When it comes to pvp, best gear to have leveled is:

Twin 381mm Advanced (Core Data exchange), fastest gun with respectable damage and stat boost, welcome for any barrage boat
410mm Mounted Gun, jack of all trades, acceptable for barrages and damage
Triple 406mm MK6, hardest hitting

SG Radar, High Standard Fire Control Radar, Beaver Squad Tag, multiple SG radars to boost evasion are good

Auxiliary gun depends on the type, but take any of best CL or DD gun mentioned later```
```Carriers: 
Any gold fighter with 500lb bomb works

SB2C Helldiver, unmatched damage

Barracuda, fastest and fattest torp bomber
Aichi B7A Ryusei, hardest hitting converging torp bomber

Aviation Oil Tank, Steam Catapult, Beaver Badge, (Oil Tank increases damage by a lot, do not underestimate it)```
```Light Cruisers: 
Triple 155mm Mounted Gun, Quad 533mm Magnetic Torpedo, Repair Tools/Advanced Boiler, Torpedo Bulge, Take best DD gun as aux if applicable```
```Destroyers: 
Twin 127mm MK12, Quad 533mm Magnetic Torpedo, Repair Tools x2, 93 Pure Oxygen Torpedo

Barrage boats like Yuudaichi or Ayanami will prefer blue 76mm AA gun or gold twin 100mm AA gun```
```Anti Air: 
Twin 113mm = Quadruple 40mm Bofors > Twin 105mm SKC > Octuple 40mm Pom Pom```
```Pearl's Tears is not necesary to be maxed but it's still health of a toolbox and should replace it on one of your boats```
```If you are running no Destroyers in your fleet at all, you owe it to yourself to have at least some Boilers equipped, and idealy, replace every Toolbox with one. Speed is a very underused stat, with it your fleet will be much more agile and physically avoid small arms, Battleships shots and plane bombardment much easier.```

higher rarities are better

I guess I could have just said go look at the google doc laffeyDrink

does her kai airstrike use your torp planes?

specific type

its a special plane

most of the plane skills are their own planes

the selling point of her kit aint that

ivory vine

it can have 5 torp planes

topaz beacon

its all abt her blue skill sandyMeme

foggy token

7% chance

lunar veldt

its her aviation stat and that defiance ability

she also has pretty high aa stat

foggy token

on average hiryuu kai barrage throw out 2.04 planes

ivory vine

i think the highest of any cv

so once she takes critical damage

its effectively double airstrike

blazing knot

When does Gensui rush start?

real notch
#

@blazing knot depends on server

blazing knot
#

how many "days remaining" is the earliest possible time to achieve gensui?

#

is it 2 days 0 hrs?

lime rivet
#

3, i think

blazing knot
#

is it easier to wait till others have already gotten their 2500 points and switched to memefleets?

#

does that even happen?

spark oxide
#

what is gensui

blazing knot
#

the top pvp rank

#

just want to cross it off the bucket list

gilded atlas
#

Unlikely you can make it cuz you have to reach top 5

foggy token
#

10

gilded atlas
#

yeah

#

best bet is to try to quickly finish at reset to see if you can momentarily hit top 10 to get

lunar veldt
#

smth smth spreading out your attacks

gilded atlas
#

when you already have 2500 of course

#

spreading out won't help in this case cuz you're trying to finish up before the original top 10 finishes theirs

#

some possible lurkers below will catch up too

blazing knot
#

doesnt it only refresh every hour?

#

so if u are within range, u have 59min to blow your wad and get into top 10

#

its how its worked for me so far

gilded atlas
#

doesn't

#

as long you can hit top 10 for 1s it counts

#

pvp updates immediately the last time i tried

lime rivet
#

Correct. The leaderboards and ranks update immediately

#

Opponent rank updates every hour, so you want to rush

blazing knot
#

OK I see, so it is live

#

In that case it feels like if I want to bucket list Gensui, I should wait for after the initial rush

#

To sneak one through

lunar veldt
#

the question now for u to answer is, when is your server's initial rush

#

are people lurking around too

livid fractal
#

Rank rush starts at 2days 12 hours

#

Where people can pass the 2200 point rank

#

To get early admiral of the fleet

#

So pretty much at 3 days you should have 2150+ points to qualify

lime rivet
#

Yeah, that's what I remembered

blazing knot
#

Perfect, exactly what I was after @livid fractal

knotty parcel
#

so

#

amagi is a better hood ?

#

Since hood only has higher AA ?

lunar veldt
#

higher AA

#

just look at both ships

the other gives debuff/eva
