Oh misread
So WS skill not completely wasted on twins
Twins still hard miss a not-insignificant fraction of the time normally
what i want to know from data mining is "does drop rate exist in there?"
which let face it they are going to be server side 
Can't you just take impact area and flight duration?
But if you wanna write a simulator
What do you care about how it looks like
That's probably better even
Makes hit locs more visible

I wonder if that 10 start is salvageable now with enough sandbagging.
because a 2589 top ten is a pretty low min last season
also dreamed of lusty/eld stalling my again 
just run nepgun 
If the barrage reaches backline then it's probably worth spamming it, but 150 single is unlikely to push more than 1-2 in the entire pvp match and you dunk your entire gun damage for it. Nepgun is plenty fast
Also the fp bonus
Also whyyyy do people keep thinking single 150 fires more than twice as fast
It doesn't!
Time between shots on 120 dev30 Nep with single 150 is 1.57 s
Tbtsk is 2.96s
Nepgun is 2.74 s
Remember, time between shots = reload time (after reload stat adjustment) + gun CD (0.28s for CL guns) + volley time
yep but it still eats the 0.28 s
yep
but idk how that works fully
157 [150]
296 [300]
plus it's the same for every gun I say
Single fires twice as fast as tbsk 
well it's not "more than twice as fast"\
afaik yes
but idk fully how it works, cause:
bullet range + offset = targeting for most guns
but you can still clearly see ingame cases where guns target but don't hit on stationary targets from a stationary VG
velocity I might be able to help with
battle constants has a "shell speed scaling factor"
Shell velocity is squared from the ammo speed stat
idk how the full formula fits it all together though
basically all "movement velocity" stats are calculated from the square of the relevant speed stat
gimme a sec
lines 246-277 in battleformulas.lua
23,28,33 reference the loaded in "speed conversion constants"
loaded from
ys.Battle.BattleConfig
ys.Battle.BattleConfig.BulletSpeedConvertConst = 0.1
ys.Battle.BattleConfig.ShipSpeedConvertConst = 0.01
ys.Battle.BattleConfig.AircraftSpeedConvertConst = 0.01
lines 77-79 in battleconfig.lua
that file also has a lot of interesting variables
iirc I found another set of "scaling" constants that might affect these numbers
but I could never figure out how it all played in together
can't remember where though
I haven't tried actually making formulae and seeing if they match up with in-game testing
so can't really say much more
reading the code hurts my brain too much 
owo
im trying!
xD

reason why i always at least save around 2 to 3 of each gear
yeh got 2 of them and 6 quad
You can never be too prepared 
And there always enough idle boats to hoard them 
so no inventory taken
I save all my gold gear in case I need them
let cranes be used on everyone please so my 17 cranes are not useless
I would like to see more BBs with specialized ammo, like Mass
Inb4 Sanshikidan shells skill
Imagine kirishima barrage, but as shell skill 
Phoe dev 30 headnod 

you know, then it might actually hit the VGs 
i only fished for 1st rushers after 1st reset
those early 130s
after that it's ded
and i get matched with some low rank newbies half the time
half of them don't even pvp or get walled something
Exactly

time to break out my "immortal" def fleet again
losing a match, I'm okay with
being stalled out of gensui and hitting me on the next season too 
Is this weak enough or should i fuck with my vg more
buki is real monster
gonna delete some casual's VG 
she is really fierce
I fought her on def fleet few times
paired w/ Aurora she easily delete vg
I'd use aurora but she's only level 103ish and idc that much to level her
maybe eventually but I've been using bel/nanoda/buki
Jin Buki will work fine too
only Jin won't buff CA
yes true
the eva buff aurora gives is probably better than a torp meme boost anyways
Im still at 10/10 
Tfw im getting great bonuses but I'll be gone all next week so wont be able to finish
+31
Gotten a 29, 31, and now 32
im getting low levels peeps
i got 32 and 34 but i think that is all ill get xD
welp
Get wet
probably
rip
we have a pinned pvp tier list if you want to refer to that first
contains generally used comps and gear to use on each ship
Where can i find that pinned list?
in pins...
But from what I'm seeing in your dock, you don't have many of the event limited pvp ships
or ships in general 
Legit your only option is unlocking Monarch, maxing her and running her along HMS
probably another hms unfortunate fellow
He could run Hood/Sara/Enty + Jun/Helena/Bel if he really wants
kgv works too
Ye im new to game
I mean, can try running good stuff, should be enough to at least sort of farm merits?
If you are new to the game
welcome to pvp, you missed all the events that would make yor fleet capable of contesting better stuff
hood kgv qe maybe till unlock monarch
Great :D
so you should focus on rising ships you like and farm pvp with the highest level ships you have
PR grind can be a side thing to work on while you level your ships
I dont have any problems with pvp so its good i guess
not expecting dev30 anytime soon
lol
Pve*
so if you wanna think of farming pvp, the easiest route is levels > equipment > comp
Ok, thanks for now ill be back
rising pvp only ships is a luxury
"looks at Juneau" 

from your dock you should probably keep using barrage boats and maybe start investing a bit in Juneau if you like pvp
well hms backline is not pvp only
Juneau is a great investment. She will not be going anywhere soon
farming Junea in early game gonna be fine
Monarch is PR and its a pain in the ass, rising Warspite is a luxury, Hood is fine but she's "okay" at best if you have HFCR which he doesnt
If he wants to be able to play pvp, just having leveled good ships is fine
fighting for top 10 is another story
ye, again levels > equipment > comp
top 600 was possible with no sandbagging, but that's really early in the game
now we have a meta and 120
wash or sandy might be fine 
more than fine i'd say 
Sandy is pretty fucking serious at top 1k
If you guys stopped dropping 3+ games every season maybe you'd see decent fleets
I didn't drop 3+ games last season. I dropped 2 at the very end 
Go look at top 10 right now and count fleets that someone starting out can beat
please
those are rushers
this is what you will see most of the time
It's still the same point, there are real fleets and you insist they dont exist
This needs to be pinned tbh
who insist on what lol
there decent fleetsa top 10 or 10k
"decent fleets"
like it matters
lol
Sandy runs only bulins
you imply we don't fight decent fleets

cause we miss 3 tix per season

I think ppl don't understand concept of competitiveness. It's not to have server full of 120 meta fleets 
Ill call your maxed namaryuu fleet and raise you a maxed purin/sandy/bulin fleet


21/25 on nepgun but 9/25 on 2nd rudder
I like Bakas 
Fuck me i want nepguns 
2 sg? 

Not like I could do much with a third other than throw it on another BB that i wont use for pvp tho
Unless I wanna double SG dork but meh
Wait nvm i have RWG on amagi so thats what it'll replace
I mean, i use SG in pve too, those on pvp fleet will forever rot there 
and not like i will swap equips

gladly i got 6 or so of em
2 for pve rest for pvp
or whatever
Boss fleet ambushes 


perfect start to the season
10, 31, 31
on the bright side I can make 4 extra 138.6 guns now
Just need to find ships to put them on
yes, I didn't make it in time last season and finished my last match when next season started
double rip. I didn't get gensui and screwed me this season

i got 17 bps in 35k 
heh i win 16 bps in 35k
xD
60 at 58k 
wtf
it was suffering doing that grind
It is suffering, when you grind and get nothing
i love suffering 

3 more days still havent got 3rd dd gun
might as well do a fish sauce offering ritual 
oh that sounds good

blood for the blood gods
HERETIC!
on the flip side biscuit is 119 now
🔥
my meme roon is 118
I should really use my sanrui now
dev25 should do some damage
or at least be tanky
qe is my favorite chibi character in azur lane u know

look at that moving at tiles animation and the firing salvo ( so demn cute ) not to mention the eyes also
I will never use or ring QE
dev 25 sanrui doesnt do damage
dev 30 shot her damage up by like
double
boosted barrage and efficiency goes a long way
dev 25 sanrui is just bigger better portland
xD

well I ran out of event PR bps to convert
deus vult edition
basically we all need BP's
if the game would give me cube projects that would be great 
Or just cubes

lucky fish sauce for me i encounter rank 1
well my list got some rank 20-30 plebs so...
give me some of those. had 2 rank 2k people only

lol
I average a 145 start. 152 on a great start 
all bonus was early rusher
ended up with a 147
was hoping i got low level rushers but nope xD
3rd reset of the season a bust like usual 
7 played matches in total, 198 score so far. This is bad, right?
I think i managed to get 2 +33 on my last 2 attemps, but first 5 i had to rush and get nothing
still really early, if you can snag 3 bonus match each reset this week
you'll be in a good spot
if u think about it
it doesnt matter much if u lose early
in the end
if u sandbag it still scales
losing a round early might as well mean losing 10~8 points on last reset
cay lost 20 points so
u should only be losing 6~7 points
at season end
Getting more points at the start just means you dont need to catch up that much and you end up getting less bonuses later on
i agree with master vysaga , i remember having only 143 on 1st 5 matches last season and having 1 missed attack but still make it through top 8 with 2592 points
You can miss one match and still be close to 2600
Still need more sandbaggers to push for 2600
is it possible with 120 1st 5 match points to get 2600+ at the season end?
Depends really how many bonuses you get in the first week really
i guess i still participate this season
i travel jp in 28
so wont get hit this season

im at least sure
u can,reach 95 with an early loss
at season end
welp, missed 1 attack already 😂
overslept?
oof
was sorting through AX photos
Im even surprised I managed to barely get admiral of fleet last season
3 losses and minimal sandbagging on Avrora. Got kicked out of top 10 within minutes of course xD
Heh
Damn, i'm really curious how is kgv hms doing on jp/cn against azuma namagyu
Despite the initial bashing from some ppl here on her, i'm starting to think she might be indeed the strongest hms boat rn
They should give her a chance. I don't really know how crucial 15% from qe will be for ws kai, and how strong will hiryuu kai be to make any assumption If she should replace qe or monarch, but she might be the key if it comes down to sinking azuma.
Haloist in my lobby 
wut

Deadlist again

I was hoping for a bigger changes

dk about sub weeklies tho
only 2 tries per week
the reward better be worth it
w14 normal map req 6k+ sub fleet power to enter

np to me since i never touch special
@midnight heron
push all the way
in 1hr
aight
no one moved lul

ohboi, we get limited build right away after Iris ends...
gonna get walled by namaryuu

I’ll prolly ignore it. Milking is too fucking obvious

when u get lucky
3 sub limited
i done with my charges anyway

lmao


I'm still using my semi-meme-wall comp not to wall newbies too much 
i changed my def comp to not even include any skill lvl based barrage
so if newbies lose its their fault
i got 3 cv main 
I have my KMS comp without gears, the epitome of ♿
sadly i dont hav enuf cv 110 (without gear) to place there
I'll work on CVs when i get back to w11
w12 i mean
cause 1st it was namagi lvling, then event, then what else...
its just 138 mle nothing else
not like im much better lul
35k points 17 bps
wat
while some ppl get 3 guns
does dat include shop ones
not ofc
im at 41.5k pts & 77k oil and only got 15bp 😮
meanwhile my alt acc does the same and still only has 10
lazy af to farm anymore
Some ppl actually have worse luck than me
wudve been nice if they gave like 1 bp every 10 runs of none but 
Would be nice if they just put bps in shop, but like double the price after each 15 bought
So ppl just farm points
at like d3
😮
and buy shit
better idea lul
well, that's how event stuff works in some games
it's same brainded farming, but no rng
you only farm points and buy rewards at increasing price
rng
buy with pts

tho it wud raise another issue
of wat gold weapon to replace event weps in those maps
just put regular gears in event maps and all exclusive stuff is buy only
or just make it be drop + buy
more casual approach 
~~time to #game-feedback ~~
Bruh
is there any comp list atm that runs enterprise?
i guess flex spot in amagi nagato instead of hiryuu?
and some leftovers of wasde
is it still somewhat decent?
well, are there any meta fleets atm besides IJN?
so until essex we're doomed
essex doesn't bring anything
the airstrike defense i guess
reducing damage to 1
might be enough to get the wasd fleet alive
Ijn uses 1BC and 1 BB, tho
nah
i want to believe 
it has totally nothing atm
And hiryuu is actually just warspite bait from what i heared
Which is hilarious since WS kai isn't even a thing yet
I still use nagato/akaga
Well if you have oathed them, i'd do that, too
Well, rushers and lazy ppl still use and will use foxes on offense till the times of at least WS Kai, more like till PR2 really. Dragon Kai might make some ppl switch.
Hiryuu is more than just WS bait rn. Her 15s invuln is very valuable and Nagato gives her airstrikes respectable damage.
is it better to put amagi or nagano as flagship in fox comp?
I like Amagi, but Nagato is the more popular choice because of the CV buff
Amagi's 7s barrage is insane if you have one IJN ship for your frontline
soon when dev30 saint louis become more common
jun/yuki/sanrui will be pretty meta
I'm pretty far off tbh. dev26
just need a chain of sanrui cube projects please

I only have bel in my fleet to fuck with foxes
But now hiryuu is here and she's even worse
Altho tbh I've only had to reset once in the past 3 weeks
So i might have to wait till hiryuukai for another hard to beat fleet
Hiryuu's always been here, It's just been awkward to use her before Amagi and Nagato came out
she'll die the day fdg gets 120 and dev 25 for dat thicc hp
15 second invuln < 20k+ total hp
You can always run fdg ws ryuu 
you think 1 minute average is slow now
it will be 2 minutes soon 
or better, run down the timer because nobody will die
like every other pvp season my account somehow manages to tunnel in on certain users during lineup refreshes
and for some reason they’re all people i know
the other day i kept getting this zackfairx fellow

sandbaggers always get matched with sandbaggers

ive should have given him some native fish sauces as a farewell gift 
haha y u hate her? or it reminds u of something
yeah
no maint announcement yet so i guess uts nit this reset
dunno if i can,finish my last,gun

8/15
me too , ive used my LUCKY fish sauce ritual on pvp
10/15 for 3rd gun , 3k oil left
ic someone pinged me 
its op as sub gun
oh sry
what u mean by broken is bugged
not op
it feels like shit tbh
my phoenix has had a good time with the nep gun
maybe its just nep still being a baby 
Hey, hoo, have you leveled qe yet?
Oh no, not 5 +0 again..
nice
3 resets on a namaenty just cuz somehow their amagi gets to proc barrages AND shells targeted at hiryuu
next lvl stuff

nerf hiryuu from 15 to 5 secs 
actually keep it 15, but instead make it Evade
or once she launches FINAL COUNTER = she automatically sinks
and trigger at 33%
no shit
or trigger higher and just grant 50% damage reduction xD
invulnerable / perfect dodge should be nerfed imo
It works as intended in pve against ex bosses
damage reduction is bs
al is a pve game 
born to die 

Protecc Junie
still waiting for junie oath skin and cleveland swimsuit L2D...... hopefully
Waiting for that Alaska
waiting for Atlanta plus (Worcester)
Never enough CBs

double CB and juneau
who needs ykk
when you can just put more damage on the backline
xD
4 boilers? no big deal
give all ur fleets gold washing machines
If I have like 6 of each gold AA gun, which should I put on low AA ships? The Bofors?
Should I basically put UFOs on high AA and Bofors for ROF on crappy AA?
Or just Bofors on everyone
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BglmSOaD1ec8zc6bKwiItf2OcQueoRNxF3UGzlQnHBU/edit?usp=sharing
check the faq tab
blue did some calcs on that
but its p much staag on BB/BCs and then balancing bofors/ufo on everyone else
do you really want to put staag on VGs tho
well if only hiryuu is the relevant CV then yea sure i guess
14/15 on last gun

we can do this
14 bps dropped 1 - 1 on elites
no bps on bosses for like 30k points alrdy
4 bps drop in a span of what 1h?
what a luck sag

give me your luck then luck sag

need 8 bps for last gun but then knowing my luck i doubt i am going to finish it in time before maint

yeh trying lel
just going to full on rush mode till maint
im done too
only 3 pcs farmed tho
then 1 pc from event
4 pcs
i had no motivation when it started
cos no jb heh
i was planning to farm 6
I have ratio of 19 bps per 40k event points...
probably won't finish second gun
weird sub limited gnna last till Tuesday
better save up your gold for next build lel
RIP, back to free projects
funny shit is that i been getting free PR one after the other
most of the time are 8h and 12h free one

at 93k gold atm
hope i don't have to whale for more gold


wtf
Funny thing, how free 12 hr project can give you 2 ship bps, while 30 mins coins+cube comm gives 7 bps 
oh you counting kai bp?
owo
tfw biscuit lands all of her first 3 shells on vanguard and they evaporate because crit
And they miss 
na they all hit
xD
i moved my staag and put an sg radar
full deeps
i also swapped to the 381 triple
lot better with that
what were you using before that?
izumo gun
xD
if i could force her to shoot backline with the dang thing would be fine

You can salvage that by increased bonus point potential
rip
I started with a 10 point 1st match and I was 605 10/10
so not too bad of a recovery 
Well, i guess i could recover, but that should be alot of rushers each reset for me
or maybe i dk stop trying to get top 10 end of ss 
sadly i am in avrora
need to sand bag to get aotn
if only there was server transfer
i move to wash or sandy
i'd move to sandy
it'd be cool to see like the more competitive the server, the better the reward
using like a small gold cost to compete in the season
and then top 100 or so gets a payout
that way transferring to smaller/weaker servers gets less merits since it's less competitive
;)
YOu have no idea how much of an outrage would be from filthy casuals
Glorious IS a joke indeed 
When i was submitting a ticket about top10/100/500 exclusive rewards, someone hopped in right away to say how it's unfair to those who don't try
Ye. Casual logic

wait
Hey, i'm casual. WDYM
dear god

you know, as a gamer, i feel like we should be treated with respect in regards to game design
but that makes me like
And here i say pvp is unfair in other way, favoring casuals and not rewarding tryhards 
WE DESERVE NOTHING
Well, i mean not that. I mean ppl who like have full 120 200 aff meta fleet with BiS gear etc
5m if you're lucky, dont the true sandbaggers run the clock down to the last minute
xD

i mean 1st actually, (2nd counting store gun)
yeah
last day rush is real
that's a crime
how in the bulin you do that.

me sitting with 2
You rub RNGesus in places
I still didn't get one extra 
i dk why ppl use their luck in mobile game instead of just buy lottery lel
11-4 lethal? might die 
I lack all boss ships aside foxes 
i was so sad sos gave me an extra poi
placebo affect lel
someone else could have used that drop
that will prolly survive on safe then

idk but I have uni instead of vestal 
Awooooooooooooooooooooooo
just slap dildo
i feel like that team should be ok unless the level difference isnt enough
belchan has a good heal
I'm against loli slavery 
idk why ppl care so much about lethal cost
it's not that many battles
majority of most farms will end up being in safe anyways
What's the current ideal sakura fleet for global? This is mine currently
sakura fleet 
check pins
namagi/sanrui/juneau/ykk 
Or at least BB Kaga
she buffer
if you want all-IJN front I'd say probs Jint Sendai Ykkz, maybe

15% buff isn't worth that much
But I'd highly rec at least Jint/Aurora/Ykkz
oh dang I still have to farm Hiryuu I completely forgot about her

The great Dragon 
BBKaga is the easier one to get up if you're lazy
w13 is mostly an AA check tho
In PVE 
not like you going to know what hit and what not when you pumping 2 air strikes at the same time when AA and AR boat spawn

Isn't it only useful for bosses?
620 cubes 
not even close 

been using my stash of t1 book
ya'll even 3 slots 24/7 skill?
hence why so much t3
t1's is way too slow exp/hr
you can craft t1 into t2
wasted exp lel
saved time/exp
i do like t3 overnight, another t3, then two t2s
well lucky i am in summer break 
lol

useless piece of shit w/o * lvl

at least sanrui can level herself
You deserve to be skewered
not if i skewered her first with my torpedo

which i already did actually
How is bismark currently in pvp
she's fine for me
but that's because my vanguard pressure comes from sara debuffs
so im just praying biscuit just nukes backline with her crit
but sometimes she might clip a crit on the vanguard and it's hilarious
the reduced hit is a problem though without nagato buff
but oh well
I was wondering how good something like a bismark tiripitz type of fleet would go, I hear she's pretty busted on JP when paired with freidrich
It would be top PvP had it been half a year ago
nagato buff biscuit?
ok what?
for amagi and no self accuracy buff
oh
nagato having 20% hit buff is really good =/

From what I hear biscuit teams are around the powerlevel of Nakaga, for CN and JP
so... yeah
Sara 
Bis FdG GZ is the main one afaik
he gets it

fdg is MEATY
shouldn't you be using amagi instead?
zep is 15%
amagi > GZ 100%
if you want to meme sure
kms is meh
but i doubt it is affective
it's just fdg being the biggest EHP boat in existence
surprised graph zep takes the place of tiripitz there, the damage buff Bismarck gives to tiripitz is insane
well KMS in general is... well... yeah 
still no info on how hard she hits tho
Tirp has no barrage so poor in pvp
biscuit basically has no barrage
80% shells hit water or whatever
but her crit skill and reload are better and more comp friendly
yeah but biscuit/fdg/amagi is probably better than zep
they should make an aux that has a passive that force a ship to prioritize back line instead of VG
isn't it the same lel?
Ya'll need to chill 
since we already have the rainbow gun
xD
just need to actually get it

until backline ships can use oxytorp


god I cant wait
