what server you on?


I need my guns
I ran out of refreshes on a maxed namaryuu with 1:10 left, so took the furthest right & finished 10 seconds over reset
Missed all procs too

Never knew Juneau's defeat voice would be so heartbreaking.
ooooof
That's one weird team comp
shot a lot of planes probably
I just put all my favorite ships
ah, the noble soul
And when neither Hood nor Lucky E never procced

And I hate IJN btw
People have unlucky Hoods it seems 
My hood is getting old
no that's just hood having low base luck ;)
and low base hit
xD
sad that biscuit doesnt have like 80-90 base hit =/
what is with nevada having so much hit lol, one of her retro tiles adds some
She's almost literally McCree
except mcree can stun people into headshot
nevada uh
she can sometimes halve damage
xD
S H O U N E N doesn't need stuns.
I'll probs make it 3
This game is burning me out

Atleast i'm almost 100k on the event
Ye should be around 20k more
Even gods can bleed 
Maybe I can get r1 this season
Who am I kidding, not happening 


Well for Bis it's less of an effect than Nagato
is nepgun better than twin 127?
in overall trade of damage vs aa durability?

id need 2 more nepguns anyways
my 1 nepgun is on phoenix
I find it more fun to have both amagi and nagato to pelt the VG

Nepgun is easily better than 127 because added durability means fuckall if your BBs are killing the VG that is drawing away their shots
that all your oil? mail, shop, and exam rewards?
but if I can clear the VG sooner because my nagato doesn't like to big 7
the better
havent seen many sendais still
mostly jintsuu/aurora/ykk
not sara friendly
=/
i think there was 1 sendai with an 818 hiryuu but the levels werent there
12 more bps and dev 30 =D
i havent bought all the shop bps yet
so i might just not use them
xD
i think there's 9 left or so

=(
i need 38 more bps for maxed monarch
well, we got no bps on nagato event unfortunately
I used all my event bps and only got dev25 sanrui.
only seen the 0.5hr cube bp project once. and that's when I was about to sleep
the best one you mean?
would love to spam that because I got 1000+ cubes and doing nothing
iirc there are three of them, and the one that costs 8k gold and 3 cubes is the most profitable
the ship specific 8k 3 cube one
Auroras not that good for torp squad
More specifically shes good for foxes
I 110 200 affed my sendai 10 days after she was released
Turns out shes not even meta

Also, ws is outdamaging non maxed monarch constantly
ws does have the highest unboosted fp in the game lol
non retro ws isnt anymore accurate than most lo
she and nevada have +hit in their retro stats
oh and apparently hyuuga/ise have +hit in theirs too
why do the monitors have such high base hit
xD
83 on abercrombie, 81 on terror and erebus xD
all of that shelling stationary land targets really helps your aim i guess
_>
818s have overall worse stats around but the slow is 8s long
Thats pretty long slow
Makes vg shelling a bit more relevant
Also ill have to look at the timings since i forgot but the slow should line up with amagi 2nd shelling
The stats lost isnt that significant
well, since i dont use hiryuu it is because then i lose my vg xD
Oh, compared to the ryuusei its better stats
And i think cuda anyways is better than ryuusei on namaryuu
I did 2 week testing of ryuusei and 2 weeks of cuda
i mean that'll change when hiryuu kai shows up
cause then she gets her aoe damage fix
and bigger stats for ryuusei to use
hm, if you can sync centaur 818 with kgv, along with aur it should be a solid hms setup
just based on my own testings but
i feel with ryuusei, it's difficult to get a good targeted hit because of how resilient 120 YKKZ is
and even more when you're on defense
and idk how accurate ryuusei torps get when an enemy YKKZ is hugging your backline
i feel like it aims at enemy backline more but
idk
k
im only using 1 comet atm
without a heavy duty bomber she doesnt get clean kills on backline sometimes
also, bigger bombs have more base hit
to hit vanguard
xD
1 btd, 1 comet
vf pirate of course, free durability is free
RWG and Tank
xD
oh i dont have emu on my toaster laptop
guess i should fix that
saratoga does have torp bomber
lol no
her skill is aim torps
but she is fighter/dive/dive
2/3/3
like graf
xD
i mean, skill aim torps are whack
just like her gun aim
;)
the reason she is viable is because she has 2k hp over hiryuu
and a lot more dps
when she feels like aiming
the longer the fight the better her damage
cause those ticks add up
a lot
everyone has a lot of plane plates
xD
same
but yeah, RWG to ensure max odds of hitting pesky vanguard with the burning/flood
xD
and a bit of evade to help her huge hp
she's only 300 hp under graf zepp

she may be smol
but she thicc
7.1k ;)

i havent moved out of 8-1 hard mode lol
/also because it's on clearing mode and im lazy
i didnt have enough time before event 
but all these DD kai is making a dense in my DD bp lel
o.O
i have 1 t1 and 0 t2
t3 i got like 40+ lel
was just doing CL bp since before w8
so been lacking
you know what's funny?
DR sub
yes DR not even PR
or was it DC?
dk the name lel

lol, finally we get kagerou retro, after her skill been leaked since like autumn
it's just disturbance shooting
the skill with unknown effectiveness
due to the terrible activation rate
and it doesnt say how big the debuff is
lol
and it targets randomly
X_x
not that you use her for the debuff anyway
skill is of 0 importance
552 torp + chain torps + vg torp command
pretty sure if we can datamine that shit we would have it by now
she just got 4th useless skill
lol, her retro buffs asw
that's pretty bad for 25% rate lol
no1 really cares about those skills tbh
i mean, im sure someone did but they never bothered to update it cause the skill is trash
like if it was -100% reload
that'd be interesting
25% to freeze someone for 10 seconds
they should come out with some more debuff skill ships
wait what happens when you have -100% reload
oh it's 200 / 100
base realod increases lol
oh that's just 40% gun time
that's actually kinda sad
i guess with the damage debuff it would be ok
but 25% chance is still >_>
Have you considered using Firefly on Sara instead of Comet.
yeah it only gains duration
it reads in description
if i had double firefly
id do that
but i think 1 btd 1 comet is better
hmm i guess btd/firefly is only .5 seconds slower

double firefly would be nice though
which event was firefly again
xD
rip, it'll be a while for that to rerun
Firefly is +1 1k bombo over garbage bombs
with same avi bonus
Comet is probably not wrth over it if you run it mainly for gold stats
it's mostly just for speed since btd is slow xD
i could try like Me/btd/firefly

or me/btd/btd
yep all reload is now base equip times sqrt 2
too bad slow skills only stack multiplicatively
otherwise you'd actually be able to freeze ships
xD
seeing as you're only 5 points below me now. It's possible
oh time to check if anyone rushed on my list 
oh ya
2 working on a 3rd
How much do you guys play 
the drops are awful for me
working on 3rd as well
do any BB or BC use this good too?
it's a decent one for backlines that can't equip CL guns
i would still go for 127s tho i think
alright
Ok
submarines deal map-based sub dmg based on fleet power
so whatever gives more fleet power
AKA gold/rainbow equips
how many 138.6 everyone intend to farm?
oh right
so which pvp ships want the 138.6 ?
nice
USS BBs
tacao choukai maya atago
will there be a lvl 130 cap somewhere?
ofc there will be
lvl mogami and Jintsuu some more?
unless you like fighting w14 with 120 boat
He got no life
more like got that many SR ship
lol dude

130k
do you run out of gold though?
where do u guys spend ur chips
Broke wayy too many SRs
wtf
I've 11 lv120s
i have .... 7 i think
also I have like ~10 more 115+
still none here
oh right it's 12 now
highest for me is 117
but i always keep my ships capped unless i need them to be 120
wtf

and 4 more ships above lv 100
Tip: use secretary selection
allows for better sorting
mines pretty shit lo
i've recently started leveling sandy and ws
in prep for retro
that's a good idea
i might not even oath ws
probably oath sandytho
Ehh I just got mine done for Monarch
i spent like
$50 on AL and i feel like a whale already
the next purchase i make is like the 2x gems at $49.00
which is gonna jump my expenditures to 100

all the 2X packs, the monthly daily res, and half the event packs for me
I still feel like a dolphin
can't afford to spam skins like some people I know
maaaybe a Killer Whale 
Much better way to view ship list
For me it's PvP and some grinds
i'll probably only 120 future PVP ships
Monarch grind gave me 120 Dork and WS and Hood
And Wash is from ch11 grinding
since she's my next best ship for that after I finished Amagi
Also Aurora as flex Namayu-stall spot is surprisingly nice
Got wrecked once though by Jun and Aurora both instadying to torps
(and ofc also not-great barrage RNG afterwards)
biggest oath ragret is still sendai
it barely holds on though, I feel, on offense
i used her for a grand total of 1 week
until i realized she sucks
at least at 110 stage
110 vs 120s or 110 vs 110s, and in which team?
110s vs 110s

and whenever sendai came out
even in 120 she is still whatever
so amakaga meta
i still got shit ton of boat to oath
taihou all of essex class u 47 i 13
I used her in Hamayuu though
pfft
i was expecting groundbreaking
scrubs and their bel
because of the 25% eva stacking on aurora EVA
but even that combo didn't reliably wipe VGs
well idk it felt fine to me
and then juneau was still a better option
it works for JP tho
defensive VGs felt stronger than suicide squad
it worked for JP yea
that's why i was so sold on it lo
I ran Sendai/Jun/Ykkz for Hiryuu/Amagi/Hood for a while
YKKZ came out a bit later but yea
well that's cause Nakaga was uncontested in JP for a good while
she basically was the end of sendai lo
might have to do with amagi arrives early in EN?
one unlucky proc and u still do 1 dmg
since at that time JP was using nagato
Amagi is what made that team
just slap hood in there
this ofc is without Bunny Kais as well
should be fine
Erm, no
you needed to adjust her gearing to have her barrage land within sendai flare
Amagi defensive buffs is worth about as much as a Juneau heal
if not more
so... yeah
amagi defensive buffs is god tier yea
there is no ship as groundbreaking as amagi lol
in PVP meta
should have been 3 ships ;)
she's beyond T0
like
she's so good that
even if you take away any one of her skills
Amagi is not "broken" its the level of mathematical error
she's still a good t1 or even t0
someone just fucked up
Literally she'd still be run without her barrage
let that sink in
i mean she still reduces aviation damage taken
she'd be an option to swap out, but you'd still see her with no barrage
wonder if yamato is going to live up with the hype against a sick cancer fox
It's DDAP so 
yea amagi is worshippable
the AP isn't really the thing
kek
203 iirc
the ijn gud stuf
yea that's why i wasn't sold when amagi was first presented on paper
They "compensated" for nerfing her originally planned defensive skills, I think
i saw the skills and was like, ehh this is pretty good
then i saw her level 10 barrage
and was like
ahhhh okay
The defensive skills alone means Amagi for sure had a place somewhere
this is the most fucking broken ship in AL
someday tennessee's debuff will be reworked to be as good as amagi's
I didn't figure out Namayuu though
I just thought it'd be WaSDA
which for a while was the 2nd best team
Well only for EN
Ehh idk imo Hiryuu/Amagi/X+stuff was the sleeper team no one really figured out
it murdered everything as offense
I was running that team since right after CE

Built it as a fox-counter, but it turns out to be legit elsewhere too
yea but i mean
we were trying hiryuu way before
and she just sucked vs foxes
lol
this was back in like november or october
oh yeah i only used her at 110
?
my skill EXP for KGV just reset

like, on ship page, in the academy, or what?
is lvl 9
you need to put on sun glass my dude
the hall now forecasts the result
xD
lvl 9 + 1
means you get no more exp
NEW UI TECH
oh no
Okay, sirreq let us explain
1 pic you use t3 book
so ofc it going to be full
LOOK LOl
the hall now forecasts the result of using the selected book
5001 lel
oh
this is new
it shows you the result of using the selected book
xD
wonder wtf you been doing since the new UI
yep it was just patched in
my KGV was at 5750
it can PREDICT things
like i SWEAR
i could have sworn i was high?
i feel like i got cheated off 750 EXP
it was just patched in recently so dw
cus i think you was

and ofc the devs made no patchnote for it
which is 
I was all confused for a good minute too
i mean do the devs do patch notes
pretty sure i saw those exp increase way before hot fixes
or someone else
dk dc tbh
and how much do they communicate
lol
oh hey biscuit 118
soon ultimate AP power
will be mine

yes
if the torp hit
how confirmed is this
lol
everyone here is a filthy meta slave except for a saratoga lover
Yeah it's great if you have anything to follow up 818 with
I use HMS, excuse you
idk how u can love saratoga
Ehh I fulfilled my quota of non-meta by using Hiryuu and WaSDA when they weren't cool
her voice activation is aids
if the torp miss is just whatever
im not the most hipster here lol
well with 9 torps in the water you're likely to hit something
just need to hit one VG and it's worth imo
one vg hit is as good as all vg hits
idk who started wasda here but i think it was gurren, sumire and me
wasd was meta vs foxes
I used that at lv100
for around what 1 or 1.5 season?
after that is full on amagi
Daxam came way later
I was part of the discussion/testing on optimal WaSDA vanguards
i am a pretty OG pvp guy if i do say so myself
but that's only because the more OG guys left already
like
I miss izurich
Feb 2nd, tooting my own horn :P:
"
Overall, on EN, pretty much any of the top teams clearly wins on offense.
Amaka with torp-suicide-fl is the fastest of them all, so it's probably the "best" offense team right now
It works equally well with defensive frontline instead, but slower
WASDA/WASDE is as good as always better imo with torp/sui over defensive, but either works fine really
Have not tried WASDH yet, is next on list
Screw HMS until we get DoY
Recently, I've been trying out Amagi/Hiryuu/Enty as offense (Hood probably a fine sub for either Amagi or Ent), and with either suicide or stall frontline, to my surprise, it actually wins versus most anything (does especially well vs Akaga-type teams, which is what I originally designed it to target) with very high winrate, and a bonus of Hiryuu's 15 s immunity giving a much larger reset window in the rare case where things go really wrong"
then the psycho mods went to attack me
o.O
yea man i tried my best for all my PVP buddies
i also did the same thing for recluse but the mods just don't budge
feelsbadman
They still come here from time to time, when have nothing to do, making a fucking joke out of themselves
Literally who
Eyy I found my post predicting WaSDA
"
And her barrage is nothing to be scoffed at either.
Additionally, Amagi's main weakness is to planes, between her poor base AA and evasion not working on suicide damage. WASD covers for her on this."
Jan 18
lmao blue
I was looking for that but didn't find it recently
"I think just going all-in on suicide frontline is better for Amaka, and maybe even for WASDA
Will try it both ways this season for WASDA"
Jan 21
Are those guys still present on unofficial server?
hmm, I'm sure I predicted WaSDA before that even
why is discord search sometimes so buggy...
lmfao remember this blue
lol
none of the mods ever police ALEC since it is not official
#famouslastwords
can do whatever
And i still remember daxxam saying her buffs and debuffs are shit 
Oh right, that's before I figured out where she'd fit 
HAAHA
I correctly predicted Amakaga is just worse Nakaga though
ok there is noone to blame there cus that was before we even saw amagi barrage
Well I predicted WaSDA there
LOOL

I was shilling for wasd amagi before day1
Though,
"That's true, but given HMS and USS matches up against NAKaga and most people think Nagato > Amagi for AKaga, I doubt it'll be more than just bandwagoning"
didn't realize Amakaga was good enough in EN with limited selections 
omggg lol
donald trump is using 818 with 410 nagato
insta killing my vanguard
xD
sometimes
I remember this too
yeah foxes 410 nagato
what's the timing though
410 Nagato very legit
it's just under 20s
i had to swap biscuit out
But Bel should still just laugh at that
ohh i was thinking namaryuu not foxes
nakaga yeah
Timing for 818 in Namayuu is shite
i dont think belfast would help
can't you time 381 nagato with 818s anyways?
he's using sanrui/aurora/juneau
problem is that's not enough value really
that's interesting
interesting theorycrafting
i have no time to do that shit nowadays
I've been trying it past few days
na there's always room for me to slap nagato back in
and murder that team comp
ez
who cares if vanguard dies
just shoot em
818 in Namayuu has issue that by time you can use the slow, dure to timings, enemy VG is already mostly dead
after studying 8 years in accounting
usually it's just ykkz left and ykkz laughs at 818
amagi goes out of meta
That would be a dream come true
amagi goes out of meta
...
cause even more OP ships join
dude it's just database garbage over and over again man
=(
I have nothing against more op ships, if they are non ijn based and buff their faction only
Srsly
Fuck ijn
windows powershell
na
i'm about to lose my job lol
we need more crossfaction ships
to encourage more diverse lineups
it goes better with the theme of the game
which is bringing the factions together
to defeat sirens
crossfaction ships with a specific strategy niche instead
Like amagi could've been nice without barrage
maybe even buff her defensive skills
anyways they just really need to buff bismarck
Well, i feel the only diversity you will get is. 2 ijn buffers with 1 random 3rd slot
like
Which is already there
she would be a "if you try to run a shelling-heavy fleet, glhf vs me"
u cannot overbuff her in this KMS dry meta
she needs hit rate
and she needs a bit of base damage on her barrage
and she's fine
or like "critical hits automatically hit"
xD
she needs some kind of groundbreaking buff that validates KMS VG
otherwise the KMS VG are just gonna be forever trash
Like, here's a proposed Amagi setup:
Similar stats, maybe lower FP and raise Eva
No barrage
20% Evarate and fire dred
Same stat debuff, maybe even 15% there
Slows down match significantly, and really reduces Shelling/Torp/Bomb damage but is vulnerable vs plane suicide
she's too much of a solo ship atm though
Well, kms needs better ships for pvp, and good planes for graf. She shouldnโt alone bring kms back into the game
yea or create some kind of interesting synergy with tirpitz
KMS just doesn't have good enough other ships to use the buffs
she does have synergy with tirpitz
that'd be romantic and variety-breeding
lol...
Stuff like Jun, Ykkz, Bel/Sheff, you run already
Power creep police, stop right there
well, if tirpitz had good torpedos it'd be neat
cause it does boost the torpedos
fire a COMBINED BARRAGE at 20 s
that'd be fucking sick
a barrage unlike you've ver seen
it's like an infinite darkness + wash barrage
the torpwall from the boss version
118 biscuit crits for 2.2k on hiryuu with izumo gun
i dont understand why biscuit didnt get the black hole thing
from pve
instead of her weird barrage
ryuusei with blackhole
it probably broke the game 
and like it synergizes with her cl gun skill
pulling vanguard to a spot where she guns em
it's good design
GOOD DESIGN
WHY ISNT IT REAL
yeah, add in the black hole, even make it do no damage
because yostar doesn't give a shit about PVP KEK
honestly instead of her barrage
they should have given her a CL gun barrage
that triggers with her cl gun
like zeppy
to synergize with black hole
cut the damage but make it spammy
while her vanilla shells are for big deeps
cause crits
my 118 biscuit crits 120 hiryuu for 2.3k or so
wait
xD
how unclean is their code tho
with izumo gun
im actually curious
is there proper commentation
lol comments
stall is easiest fight for this:

why are u working in retail and not dev

top kek
i keep getting gold boxes from d2

and not bps
=///////////
oh, 2nd white purple shell though
=D
This is great, gensui rush day and nobody is moving 
Sandy every season

experience the peak of Gensui gameplay
where about 10 people rush in the entire first reset and second rest is the real shit
24 people in gensui scores in Avrora
which is fine with me. I sandbagged 5 bonus points this reset

I made up for the 2 dead resets yesterday 
But my fleet has always looked lik that 
Does sanrui punch hard at dev 25 and 30?
moreso at 30 I imagine.
i love your fleet gurren 
i see... i just afraid that nep dev 30 might be a total flop
She should be good
and sanrui might be better
But also not groundbreaking
Nep is just tanky stall
Mostly I've heard Nep>Sanrui unless vs Aurora
advantage of Neptune is higher AA
And Nep is top CL DpS iirc
Or close
they both take middle spot or yuki's placxe?
Yukikaze is more scared of Aurora
Either lead or mid
HMS AA not scared of any planes even without bel 
Nep is pretty heavily affected by Aurora too
At the standard CL evarates Aurora knocks off about 1/4-1/3 of eHP
Aurora is just scary
Ofc on DDs or vs smokes/etc. Aurora does even more, but even just vs a naked CL she already does a lot
at last Neptune has hp advantage compared to Yukikaze
which highlights the problem of DD's low hp
Well with her heal she has one of the highest vanguard HP pools, Nep
the main thing is the mle destroys the nepgun
130% coefficient lol
Well Nep DpS is very barrage-reliant











too
