Yeah, only it was few days ago
120
It was totally normal pvp fleet, just 120 rodney as flag
Sandy's equivalent of Trump 
I bet next week someone is gonna come in here and ask why isnt his sandy kai winning

heh
post a disclaimer that wis tier list is for pve only
so like
i just noticed on essex's plane defense skill
it says Torpedo and Dive Bombers only
do fighter bombs not get nullified?

pretty sure i missed 5 attacks somehow 
what are you at?
Hello lads
Be me
Be Level 61
Get Rear Admiral

@vague token I didn’t know you were on this discord what a small world

Sara is great
I need to stop putting Alabama in my pvp fleets
Yeah she’s great in pve but pvp ehhh
Cheese is good
i mean yes cheese is delicious but helena doesnt sync with foxes xD
keep seeing these faction loading screens and wondering if they'll be added as skins =(
1071 with 8/10
probably
1122 9/10 ??
heh
I did have an awful week of bonus matches
1 or 2 bonuses per reset early is quite bad
Do any of the new ships change PvP at all?
I wanna try Enty/Essex/Ranger, Sirius/Helena/Benson .
too lazy to level anything up right now. I'm super burnt out.
Wouldn't Aurora be better than Benson?
probably. but benson for the memes
wheres baltimore 
Well technically Essex did make it in, in a pre-amagi meta
WaSDE and other WaSD variants was one of the top teams, contending w Nakaga and HMS variants
Also I can very much confirm subs don't recharge oxy immediately upon surface, and it seems it might be nonlinear (or has delay)
Switch on option cooldown from sub1 to sub2 and back leaves sub1 having barely recharged any oxy at all, only about amount for the switch option to come off CD
Only a short bit of waiting though was a full recharge
the reason i dont like benson
is that it's a damage boost and not an aviation boost
which means it doesnt work on essex's barrage
=/
it says airstrike only
(nor sara barrage nor sara guns)
Hmm, interesting
Probably doesn't then
oh yeah for sure
it's just id rather stack sirius with baltimore
on eagle barrage cvs
for me
xD
For sure
And Balti isn't made of wet cardboard and doesn't just lob spitballs either

Both buffs are perma, right?
Sirius is perma, isn't affected by her sinking during match
ok, no idea
in game says when sortied
i assume that means it procs at start
cause sortie is like the start
it doesnt say While Alive
If it doesn't say "while afloat" it's perma, so far
Idk what's the wording either 
also apparently baltimore ammo can inflict armor break
for
reasons
according to WIKI
not in game
Yep on heavy only with very low %
3.5% iirc
Yeah game is pretty derpy on descriptions 
I was looking up WSkai targeting earlier
And game ofc doesn't mention if targeting wears off, I assume it does when applied elsewhere?

Also apparently no memes with targeting
Boss still prioritized over elite, then over mob
Regardless of targeting proc
i feel like for pve that makes sense
cause otherwise you'd be telling everyone to shell some random production
xD
Assuming the production survived WS barrage ofc
WS points at faraway mob rather than the siren boss in her face
An entire line of BBs blast mob ship to cinders

Siren surrenders/retreats
Hey make it more meme, have siren dodge WS pointing
Revive the old animation cooldown meme

Raises sword, sends a prayer, then commands to shoot
Siren steps to the side/ducks while she says prayer
hmm, baltimore 106, not bad
once i get roon ill swap essex/baltimore for farming probably
Mob ship behind siren gets blasted to smoke
Lol Alabama skill AP is 50/120/115
Normal BBAP is 45/130/110, for comparison
Wash, standard BBNormal, is 70,/100/90 for comparison
I guess nowadays AL devs follow the trend, #whatsconsistency
What are you mentioning about?
Ammo armor type modifiers
Barrage?
Pve is filled with tons of light and medium
u can kill them with regular shelling
Actually ammo type wise, HE>Normal for BBs, period
Ofc each barrage has different base dmg, and most don't use standard ammo so it's all out the window
Better to compare casebycase
Normal shell is almost trash in most gun type
Also most arcing barrages don't target VG
Ehh normal ammo is shite on DD guns too
The guns that are still good just have really good base stats
Erm DDHE has 60 mod on heavy
yeah but what destroyers are gonna be killing a nagato in ch 9+ with 127
That's literally better mod than DD normal on medium
that's basically only z23 and london
Literally DD ammo is equally shit for Medium armor
more like dd ap is 100% trash
I wish Nimi could have Laffey's reload buff
She struggles against heavy armor, and her torp is abysmal
_>
honestly nimi might be more amusing as a cl gunner now that london is here
probably the highest efficiency cl gun in the game
But yeah normal ammo is always shit
It's just that DD guns, unlike others, have a few w good enough base stats to make up for it
I would like very much to put Belgun on Nimi
ehh, more like nepgun
Nepgun is really only better for vs medium though
Tbf it's pretty common armor type in upper chapters
CL mods on heavy are... well... 
so it's fine
Yeah but base stats are so much worse than 138.6 or even 127/120
Well, I hate to break it to you, but...
What kind of creature is London Kai?
160% efficiency DD gun
She is like a weird mix between dd and ca
I am training Baltimore now, so London would have to wait 
you lose only a little bit of effective FP
but you gain double the durability
xD
and more aa for those later chapters
since nimi has 85% aa gun
Btw, is it viable to field both Sirius and Baltimore in a full USS CV backline in pvp?
while london has 115
xD
ill be running amagi/sara/essex with juneau/sirius/baltimore
once they're trained
in pvp

MORE CV BARRAGES
My formation is Enterprise, Essex and Ranger
/dies to big seven
Hopefully Ranger can activate her skills 99 times
well, pure strikers dont use aviation as much as say strike damage from like benson
so i dont advise baltimore for air strike focused cvs
imo
sirius is fine cause hit rate boost though
Also I finally actually bothered to do calcs
PR2 457 does basically the same amt of total damage per salvo as PR1 410AP, on a 4s shorter load time 
No wonder why the CN guys say that WSret with 457 is a completely different beast
460 mm hotel gun when? 
I'll try out NamaWSret anyways with 410AP on WS
i should try double izumo gun
See if without 457 Amagi/WSret double tap is good enough
it's just a pain cause im using biscuit in pve for carrying kms cruisers
and izumo gun does no damage in 8-2
xD
a rating reee
Well if you can't alpha, BBHE guns are still better on everything due to fires
I'd say 410 mm triple is quite good, especially when you are bloodthirsty for some backline ships
i mean im using biscuit, im already praying to nuke backline with guns
if only she didnt have as much CL gun dps as a gun focused cl in pvp
because of penalty stacking
AP w WSret, besides targeting, is cause her teams focus hard enough/alpha fast enough that fires don't matter
cause then it would ACTUALLY make sense for biscuit to prioritize backline
that would have been a fun skill mod
"biscuit's main guns prioritize the furthest humanoid enemy" or w/e
Increase her gun's min targeting range 
Allow Bisko to fire her aa gun as a secondary gun
But AA gun base dmg is super high
true
But only if she is equipped with high caliber aa gun, aka 100 mm or above
and super short rld
i was thinking like seattle
but that would be hilarious
using aa gun stats as a weapon
xD
or they could just negate the 35% penalty in pvp
that would be a quick easy fix
Bisko in wows can be built to hunt DD, so we should have a skill for Bisko to deal extra damage against DD 
100 mm AA gun probs best stats for that, if we assume smaller cannons don't count
What's the dmg on 100mm actual gun?
On 8H only too
Less on 4H/2H
I assume aff boost is only like +20% or so anyways 
i mean when you arent actively using a ship that's pretty nice
i mean i cycle secretary so that saves a day probably over time
IF it was permanent
;)
means you save oil
less fights
;)
I think that's about where it is
I got <4 aff over a day w it up, iirc
Inb4 it's also like +5% 
Actually isn't it like about 8H per pt? Reduces that by 15 mins 
the main thing is that since secretary affection is generated per minute you dont have to check in at the right time to cash in
the academy one COULD save you time long run
but only if you can precisely cash the savings in
secretary works constantly
so that means you just save oil
technically
i guess
Also it applies instantly
So you can switch to it, do books, then switch back out
Or at least switch to a diff one during an 7H45 book session, w no loss
true
Since you get 2 shrine visits a day, and only one blessing is active anyways
what would be funny
is if the tactical shrine buff applied to defense in pvp
xD
also what the heck is the War Archives map
Applied to enemy defense but not your team
Just like old fleet tech bug 
is that the name of the theoretical old event viewer mode
I think so

tfw incomplete feature is included in description
xD
also does that mean it doesnt work on events
cause it says Campaign, Hard Mode, and War Archives

I suppose it doesn't matter since no nonarchive event maps are open while summer festival is active
I assume you can't save/use charges past end of festival (inb4 carries over to next year)
Kiro I never knew you were the type of degenerate who plays Azur Lane
I wonder what other deep, dark secrets you hold...

WASD with Centaur or Essex? Which one's better?
centaur needs beacon to sync easily with guns
but you can buff some of the shells
also note that centaur is a cvl so she does more damage than cvs
assuming no skills like owari da
or nagato buff etc
Hmmm... where was the plane reload calc again?
specifically centaur has the same stat spread as most cvs
but in pvp cvls only have a 10% damage penalty
all other backliners have a 20% damage penalty
so based on pure strike damage centaur will do more than others
skills obviously adjust that
since her barrage is 100% activation and she self buffs aviation she should have good damage output
compared to some of the rng of other cvs
anyone know where the plane launch reload calculator was again?
I recall there was a link to that
dunno if we had a calculator
lemme check all the guides here lmao

Kiro
Now that I’ve found you here, can I become your disciple?
I wish to learn all there is to know about this degenerate game from a true master who has mastered the craft.
i mean there are people who know more than me here so


another day another zoo fight

y do we event hav zoo irl anyway we got AL 

🌈
all im getting are plane skins 
does it even look good
dont even hav coin to buy dat many
only bought 2 box so far lul
bunny does no dmg vs akagaprise 
bunny ryussei?
ya
she launches into lucky e 
unlucky b
so what u expect
lucky e dont proc 
Lucky E is so annoying
And hearing Owari Da over and over again is slowly sapping away my sanity
minnaa... help me which is good for pvp
https://imgur.com/a/WZ28XD6 (click da link for more pics 😅 )
😅
too few ships to work with lul
u either go hms
Hood enty lusty can do for main
inb4 rest of his box is bulin
or discount foxes with ent route
click the link 😅
vg is sad....
start farming monarch now
😂
ohboi
then build alot of lights until u can get belfast
if you want to go ijn cheapo mode
grind 2 foxes
then use enty main ship with 2 foxes
i can only come up with unorthodox solutions for dis
Belfast drops from any build tho
its not workable in current state
not light exclusive
will get her from events builds
long term
every pvp person needs aurora
for whatever meme meta may happen in the future
I mean telling newcomers go spend cubes in light hell 
no
sendai is not priority
world 10 is nerfed now anyways
just raise juneau and roll for aurora, belfast
U need Juneau and belfast for now
those are easy to get
Juneau farmable from maps, Belfast drops in every pool

anyway picking only ships u hav, 1 suggesion is:
cleveland juneau helena + enty sara taihou
and pray helena+cleve proc and u 1 shot enemy with 1 airstrike 
oya that exists
i have junneu
well, i'd rather get PoW or Atago from ticket
😂
well pow/atago are just trophy ships so depends on him
Juneau, Belfast, Aurora?
no
atago and PoW was in invitation
takao probably got u confused
ex-event ships was never made into event base pools
what will you use trophy ships for
Juneau, Belfast, Aurora? these three?
its pointless to try 100% completion if u aint here from the beginning
😅
It's about 100%
but well
depends if you reaaaaally like pow/atago
And get 0 cubes for next limtied 
either way just collect ships first and then care about fleet comp later
Like i had for 2 events now
pvp > limited builds
i already gave u a temp fleet above
we can talk theory all day but if u dont get the ships it wont be practical

You use yr Hood Enty Lusty for now
i gave u full fleet comp lul
i dont like giving temporary fleets
its a waste of time
u need to 120 fleet it be usable
gotta work with wat u hav tho
then u dump it as soon as you get a better one
ohhh
just belfast juneau + w/e tank
Lusty = Illustrious?
hms is still the most reasonable early investment to a permanent team
amagi is probably 6 months away
nagato 10 months

we dont even know if fw will have rerun
so theyll just dump her to the pool

develop herr?
finish it until dev 30

with your current bp count
😂
for new player
its gonna take like 3 months
3months?
i'd say half year xD
more than dat lul
yea.. ill just have to wait for it 🙂
what if u stuck in fox farm for 3months for useless shitter
new players won't even be able to farm exp fast

wut
uhh.. so if i get dat.. Monarch, Hood, Enty... is dat good ?
i farmed all my prs in 7-2
still requires hardcore farm
and that's real hardcore
im filthy casual 
6 of my prs are from 7-2
btw i forgot an impt question
i probably dont even get 1 hour of gametime lol
i get like 30 mins
im not sure how that's related lol

is @regal jacinth doing pvp for casual or "hardcore"
how 120 is related?
wut
it is actually
cuz if its casual then just use ur pve ships
wdym
vice admiral
u need a good fleet for that
thats over captain
casuals can only aim for captain
not sure if u can even get dat rank without properly optimised fleet
oh so.. its hardcore
not really
hard to help in such scenario
you just need a decent fleet
pvp in this game is casual
which means u gotta get those ships first 

after u build a fleet its all a breeze
so prioritize building a permanent fleet
long term > short term
its hard sht.. like at the start of battle ... like two seconds my vanguard is wrekced
😂
if u feel hms isnt for u due to monarch farm then just go farm foxes (while farming monarch exp)
so you didnt grind your vg
i prioritised pvp fleet first
i dont got 120 pve ships
same
lmao
I even did ch12 bosses w/ sub 110 vgs
just take ur time and farm it while farming foxes
i didnt evne touch w12
But i don't use maxed 200 aff ships in pve, cause waste

i got 2 essexes so im still
Send me coobs
untouched
I was 3 coobs yesterday hunting temeraire
also i cant touch w12 till i get the damn w11 ships
got all 11 ships
my thinknig is
if i "lend" my account to someone
at least they have something to farm
ohboi

those requirements r investments u gotta make
thats like 8 months far tho
dump qe 

monarch temp?
if u dump kgv the kgb will find u
qe is temp
or hood
from what i see in jp before dr came
qe monarch wskai is a thing
how can u advice monarch for temp team in this case
or monarch wskai cent
who said i told him to field dev 0 monarch
thats crap

prs are useless without dev30
that's the point
there are like 98723982173 combinations for HMS so 
he might as well start now
it is
yea super value ship
just will take time
And if u get Cent can do temp non event non pr hms
till u get monarch or kgv or some new op HMS
imagine getting cent without rateup
that's far away

hms still good
imagine getting Aurora
b-but I got 3 aurora from light
amagi is like 2 years away from perma pool

nanoda and nagato permas are at least eyar away
wishing made the trick
cleve
i only build 1 light anyways
ships im missing from perma builds is ugh
lil cleve and cute
thingy from heavy
Abercrombie
only need aim for light then
im only missing ssrs subs rn 

well, those ye
I miss i168
subs i don't even count
ill tell the one i will "lend" my account to aim for it tho

and now shes gone

168
yeah. i sue double SR slow torp subs
the pink hair one?

oni one


nevada + phoenix for 3-4
just keep on doing it
good? 😅
dont farm 3-4
phoenix is pve god
If u can get a BM
keep your sanity
that would be better
somebody suggested me this fleet

why nevada tho
😂
dont give him wrong ideas hey
well, nevada kai is ok
everyone needed foxes at one point
bleh
just farm dont ask
mine is stuck in 110 4ever
it will take u about 3-7 days


lmao
Hey
3-7 days
3-7 dsays

took me 4 months np
took me 1 hr
im on like one month still no akagi and kaga 😂 and ima runnin on like 58 oil

😅
i mean
kek
but hey
well
i even made 6 oil comp for 3-4 and still took me that long kek
lets do hms
3-4 per run is like

its less soul crushing than foxes
and what u gonna run foxes with anyway, hood or Enty?
is per map
erebus , terror and phoenix will do?
not by node
yeah
you can probably budget fox+owari da
make a seperate boss fleet and mob fleet
but why not just use your main ships
im still unconvinced on how hard to farm part in this game is
if u keep on farming it
this game is generoud
it will drop within a week or two
u cannot just state that
low costing is not really for new players
quantity > quality
theres always a probability u never ever get the ship u're farming no matter how low it is 

😅
im only missing junyou and choukai
work hard dont complain

after i maxed cent i got no motivation to farm tho
and don't assume anything by just own experience 

yea... ill just wait right 🙂

i farmed 6 kagas and 4 akagis
lucksack
u used the other kagas and akagis for limit break?
ofc i hate inefficiency
😂
lol
i can farm it so why not
😂

burn out
im p sure i can finish it in a month if i start tho
pr lasted me 36 days

now i have like 300 milktea in dorm
all those extra oils

I jsut do 2 1200 comms a day
i do it everyday now
so can focus on dev 30
maybe after dev 30 all ships i go do w12
i casually farm sos and ships and i dont even hav much extra oil
gime milkteaa 😂
well yea still waiting for my maya/oniichanzuki dupes kek
dupes 
to make space in dock
i actually have alot of lvl 70 ssr ships
there too many purins
and u always have few hundreds thousands merit anyway
those are not pvp purins
weekleis and exchange only
Looking for easy way 
i havent even bought this events

skin gacha box yet
I won't

Ugh still this weird pvp system yest i left with zoo enemy this day it was somth different alltogether
hakuna matata
well there were only 2 resets so 10 tries
yest it was some zoo dude i posted ... today it was somth random : /
hmm wonder also how much problem is to beat zoo on attack how much easier its for them on attack : /
there no problem when u have 120 fleet
tbh the more you complain about them the more Im wiling to put my Namaryuu
underlvled mirror still reset

Time to take my Namayuu out i guess xd
It got pretty dusted
Well, he won't even beat 120 wasd so


ye now u can be more salty and asshole so ill pour oil to fire... had to fight zoo+enty today ... had to reset 10 times cos their enty never failed to proc single time just that 10th reset
max your VG w/ BiS before
did u put wash on enty lane?
yes
maybe you won't reset that much
xD
cancer is specific 5 ships, what you fight half the time isn't even "cancer"
jsut random namagi fleets
not even meta

Till u get full 120 fleet u will suffer all the road
no matter what ships u use
ey.. which ships is best par on Laffey Kai
So take yr ass and go grind
😅
just that 20% buff only reason u can do anythin :/
it's the reason mirrors have close to 100% winrate
Be glad we have free resetsa
Or yr sorry wouldn't get out of seaman 
well the whole reset is bs
yes it is
u mean the rank in pvp?
