But in the summer I can earn some good money
Or with an intership
Feelsbadman
There's plenty of work here for computer science students

It wouldn't be real ๐ if it was
doesnt seem so. the packets displays names in plain text

then do it and tell me how it goes 
rusher squad 
so refreshing switching out Sanrui for Aurora, just like putting on fresh underwear on new year's day

When we get Aviation Gasoline in the future, will BIS be 1 Aviation Gasoline + 1 Drop Tank? Or something else (like 1 Improved Hydraulic Rudder + 1 Aviation Gasoline or whatnot)
@ionic magnet RIP. I thought I didn't miss any attacks this season but looks like I once again missed 5 at one point 
CN runs homing beacon + avgas
I'm using hydraulic + oil tank now
fearless not even touching Gensui this season
u blocking potential bonus

So > Health in PvP is multiplied by 0.9 + 0.012 * level.
Is the +-2% damage reduction/done per level difference in PvE included in pvp as well?
yes
oh okay interesting
Also > Dual catapult setup works only against weak AA teams
so generally ijn and kms right?
dual cata might work if you have more than one CV
Me too, I'll keep it in mind when I do some testing
yea the plane hp from oil tank can easily be the difference between your planes dying or not
eh, not really
planes have like 400+ hp
by default lol
unless someone is running sandy memes
between enemy fighters intercepting and the normal AA
i almost always see 1-2 planes get shot down
and thats with already using oil tank

benson kai when

This maintenance is getting in the way of rushing

installing GF aint helping with the boredom
why is it that every time I click on a maintainence special channel
my faith in humanity drops by a significant margin
ikr
I click on it, first thing I see
Where is it exactly
okay you caught me, I wouldn't say that I have faith in humanity
but I would say that I have expectations that are not at rock bottom
Never trust pings. Not even yourself
Man who thought he had lost all faith in humanity, still lost a little bit of faith he didn't know he still had
Cuz ur a weeb
What
IRL I've been searching for a virgin girl and I've been getting really frustrated about it, and in AL this game is literally the virgin girl fantasy turned into a game
now I need to figure out if that's a healthy reason to play the game or not thonkers
Its healthy
Remember how in a certain religion, you're promised 72 virgins if you act in god's will? This game however gives u 300+ virgin ships by just playing it

lmfao

๐
Hmmm, does Retro become virgin again? 
anyone knows if we get a new chat border for clearing the new challenge mode
dont wanna waste my time if there isnt lul
check if there is reward?
score reset

Should say Border and not Bubble tho, bubble supposed to be chat frame?
Or they call portrait bubble too

yes u will pay........... gems

tfw cant differentiate zeppy and zep

almost failed last stage lul
given i use my lvling pvp vg
and essex bullet hell is "lul how u supposed to dodge dis"
at least its done now 
tfw you have number 2 guy in the list of opponents
it's almost EoS so normal
end of service? 
end of season
y i see ded sandy
She's just resting
Going to ring her for stats ๐

Oh boi, Mikasa is coming
The War God is upon us
I forgot Spee also had build, so probably they didn't want to make double build
Also, Zeppy is the CV w/ 6 planes 
Hiei skin
hiei i just met u

anyway didnt they announce during anni mikasa was gonna be in oct 
they didn't say anything for EN
they talked about retro
and I think we don't get retro
during a PSA they said Mikasa around october
will mikasa change the pvp meta
no reason to switch out Amagi /Nagato for Mikasa as FS
oh good, I wont get cucked for skipping this build event then
you should go for it there are rumours about a possible retro Mikasa
reeeee
Is it worth using aurora? I just got her from wishing well but im not sure if its worth it anymore
Hmm
I see.. thx
aurora always good when nanoda exists
Just missed the rush earlier
117 holy shit
Look at the power level
Hes memeing with it
ima get my numba wan in 3 hrs
Nice
honestly im not sure aurora is necessary for formidable + other cv comp when you arent using kgv
when ykk cant move out of bombs and torpedos she gets nuked hard

tfw forgot
+7 ?
well, was +7 for me
+18 
+12 for me
A fellow farmer
5k dorm coins left
wow dis some exp shit

i bought all and got 437 tokens left + previous limited set
did u buy previous set?
ofc
i don't buy non event sets, they give no bonus
only got this
tho there should be more

wait...
shop only shows permas
still waiting for the day i can buy everything
well, i got... 24 sets
only missing that summer 2k18 set
and most of regular sets
like faction sets
for some reason that set is perma on cn and jp but not EN
and there like 4 CN exclusive sets, some are collabs, like bilibili or lawson sets

dear god that armor makes you take like half damage from amagi aimed component lol
from 900+ to 450-500
does rudder+armor Amagi miss a lot tho?
probably? im running double cv so i dont care that much
heavy armor hiryuu
missing shots won't make u win anyway
beaver+armor ryuu more like viable
that was mu initial plan
but i dun run namayuu atm

need more rudders ree
also Amagi hsfcr+armor with no eva feels no go
kinda
Seems fine to me....
swapping HFCR/SG -> 2nd defensive aux is a bad trade
the +hit is way too valuable
ye
what about hiryuu
so i'm still running hsfcr rudder
does she benefit in any way from heavy armor modifiers
sure does
Hiryuu wants tank for sure but 2nd is open
double defensive aux is probs still terrible
over say, a catapult
she doesn't use cata event
it's basically guess whether hiryuu or amagi has armor
if you run armor vs armor, it stalls
i use beaver on her, cause she last to die
if you run armor amagi vs no armor amagi
you win
if you run no armor amagi vs armor hiryuu, you sad
u still can lose vs rudder amagi
if you run armor amagi vs armor hiryuu you're very sad
ultra sad
but ofc that's only a defense thing
xD
so armor + oil tank?
Armor Amagi vs Amagi not only allows you to win duel but if it's also Armor Hiryuu vs Evasion or better yet, Cata Hiryuu, which is also advantage
i'm still more into rudders rng eva, esp if u can evade burns
too bad centaur is cvl
Armour is pretty worthless if you're not tanking specifically Amagi/Nagato imo
tbh foxes will be really happy to yr heavy armors 
idk I don't think a 3rd heavy armor is all that helpful, just put Cent in a safe slot imo
ehh foxes are a steamroll for Hiryuu anyways
when they attacc you
xD
Well if you want to max wall foxes, sure
armor amagi covered by essex pretty beefy

now i need another RWG and another rudder
for essex
essex buff is too rng to even consider
ehh not really
each tick of bomb/torp dmg on main fleet is pretty low, and total dmg is from high volume
which means % skills aren't very RNG at all
main damage is from crash
it's when the dmg is concentrated in very few ticks when %activation/evasion has high variance
yeah tbf that's true, a lot of dmg from CVs is crash
might cancel 1 ryuu torp
But if you were to say, evasion on main is very RNG, I can see what you mean, since 1 HE shot is also avg 2 ticks of fires which means variance is super high
though on center slot, it's not really, with how much volume of fire that usually takes
meme damage
Have you seen Ryuu nukes?
we're talking 10+ hits on one ship for not even all their HP
so it's not all that RNG for Essex skill for main fleet
rng is rng 
well, u either go full kms
I still think subs in PvP = dace to go for the autowin on the last sub to surface
double snorkel surcouf
can u put double?
dunno
no
couf surfaces pretty early
beefy ijn subs srs and surc
for obvious reasons
they just don't sink in PvE cause they surface for literally 5s then run away
and they still do 
yeah occasionally they'll get super bad luck
for a reason i didn't skill surc
ehh if you stack some boxes on her it's fine
qeq
subs sinking doesnt count as A rank right?
i dun want to dorm them tho
nope
so yeah it isnt really a huge problem
they don't take morale loss from sorties anyways
so sinking is the only way to lose morale
only from weeklies
and right now iirc it's bugged to only -10 morale
weeklies take morale as regular sorties
subs are supposed to take -30 afaik
yeah

you can also heal subs with ARs
especially Akashi is lots of heal for them
u can heal subs with anything that heals ships
.... that's like, exactly ARs for stuff that's actually relevant
well, sadly Support Carrier says it only heals escort fleet
ye
yes but them two, Arizona, and ARs are the only relevant heals
I suppose Shigure maybe
Crane 
arizona kai when
It's Hoods artist
oh
oh darn
no chance then I suppose
=////
Hood got her skins and artist bailed out
cause their contract still is renewed
so basically all the outdated ships
well ye
Damn that means Hood just screwed over the rest
Hood is just bad hag
cause otherwise contract should've expired
like dear god repulse/renown are lul
but now it probs got renewed
even more than hood
how many times does renown's skill even stack
Beaver+armor on ryuu ๐ค
iirc it was 5?
I mean, that's not low....
lol trusting desc to match code 
like, alabama would become god clear if hers were uncapped
i can understand that one
but renown?
just uncap it
xD
she is still bc
shared cap for Bama is still pretty bs
that's how it works 

it works after each session
each mount is treated separately
firing
then again they arent consistent with salvo either
i mean i know what it means
all skills with that wording work the same
cause there's not that many skills with that wording 
idk but it's pretty clear

can't have inconsistent wording if every skill has different wording
each MG activation
in game sure
but why not have the wiki normalize
since we want to read actually useful info
it is
per volley you mean
honestly if they just said per mount vs per cooldown
that would be the most clear
or For The First Gun Mount
for anyone who has that kind of skill
Well ingame more clear
so it's per salvo, not per volley
I think it works not like u think
U think it stacks?
it should stack?
well it's a bit diff
cause otherwise you get just 1.15 1.15 1.15
which means why not just have a flat 15% modifier
wiki states (includes base main gun mount)
Actually need to see the code
then it activated during 1st salvo too
well skill goes to 15
well 15
yeah
15 30 45
hur dur
when the fight goes REAAAALLY long
i see it only activating each volley and counter reset
probably
no stacking with volleys
xD
also i'd rather have 1st shot max damage and rest go down
those 2nd and 3rd shots are to be landed on prod 

or in water
lol
I thought bbs rekts heavy armors w/ pierce?
Theres this armor pierce thing when u get hit by multiple bbs
yeah that
it is a joke for pvp, only ok in pve
You're literally exposed to damage if ur heavy armor
oh ok
well im not rlly having any problem w/ hiryuu so far
regardless of their team comp or equips

Give me more challenge. Make me reset more than 2 times
beaver armor hiryuu new meta 
lmao
why is it holding the orb

For hp?
healing
For u to ask questions
time to go in #gameplay-help and ask
if its for stats then k

wow.
pearl has same hp as toolbox

u disappoint me
why r they rerunning graf spee
Shes weak as shit
Man. I want her hot black haired sister instead


Spee is an emo goth chick who cuts herself while listening to my chemical romance
We dont need more white haired girls in the game btw
You are a good little masochistic piggy
Superior ship without lobster arms

PRINCESS CARRY! NAW!
sadly i dont have her
lul
Its my only regret in life
I got the worst sister
I'd carry that princess whos probably twice my weight
And die happy
idk why they give spee tht skill while making her damage weaker than mutsuki
they are just not gunboats
Nah just too much oxycola
I did
Wait lemme show u her equip in a moment
i swapped to gf to collect batteries

This is her equip while im grinding w9
She srsly deals less damage than hipper
And oigen
that's impossible
pocket battle ships have highest fp among CAs on top of 35% skill
prinz has no damage at all
And this is CH9, so CAHE all the way over CAAP
in no world prinz can outdps them
What do you have on Prinz?
no torp ca can
And hipper
Uh

And also that gun selection.....
Thoughts on anime?
it's meh
Whats the point of pocket ship if she sucks at dealing damage and being defeated by a literal asuka clone
dude...
maybe i should put tht oxy on her
she has top torp ca damage
:(
btw anime is trash
"gee I wonder why if I set up a ship for damage she does more damage than a ship that isn't"
Anime was a mistake
Nah man lvl 10 pocket ship skill
Still deals less dmage than hipper
it doesn't
This is sad i thought hey thete are all nice shipus.. Also very interesting thing they transform real ships into their rigging
it's just torps
Only time she beats hipper on mvp is vs light
she beats her in anything
Nah not vs heavy/ cvs
she does tho
Shes trash
I suck at math
hipper has 50 less fp and 10% less gun eff and no 35% skill
wht difference will it make even if i change their equips
They're even wearing same gun
she just mvp cause u put 610 on her and oxytorp
All hipper has is defensive skills and she still wins mvp
...
try to equip the same gears
Talking to you is pointless
๐คท

Just get straight hands growing from right place 
Cant wait to get the better sister

If i lack space from next event, im gonna scrap her

i burned gold n books on her man. And she repays me w/ mediocre dmage
lemme test a bit w/ same equip
...
+8 oxys
If hipper still beats her, then shes useless
her power isnt even reaching 4k
if you want consistency then don't use torp on both of them
if she miss her torp while hipper hits then test is meaningless
But pocket bship vs hipper defense skill
you want to test dps
She clearly have an advantage w bonus damage
yes but torp is 50 50
u test torp damage as it is
But lets see w/ same equip
if she miss her then test is meaningless
Ima run it on auto
if u ran on manual it would be less rng
Both of em can miss or kill the boat before torp hits
that's not the point
u add the variable to tsting that ruins testing purpose
Watch and learn
u can make prinz mvp w/ torp
but it doesn't change fact that she is worst dps
that's just meaningless
and u really need HE gun for pocket battleships to make that skill really shine
trash skill tho 
every1 knows i hate Sprat
Imagine not using spee only for roon grind

3 of them are trash
Imagine using kms cruisers 
u ever run leip + konig + biscuit?
What is kms good for?
good for enhancing and medals
Plebs 
whos biscuit
Her damage is stronger than hipper. Idk why saggitary keeps saying shes weak



bisko? 
Bisko shit damage
put he gun on her and the gap will increase
Nah man its the oxy torps
kms are just shite in general, except teh subs
cause you will buff bigger multiplier
I should just put 2 oxy torps on her
Oxy torps solves problems
My job here is done

Adios amigos
Yr job is to be good Foodie
why waste time minmaxing spee
tldr to counter juneau pearl just kill backline before juneau dies
alternatively delete juneau first and she does nothing
killing main before Junie is not that easy
Deleting Jun early though can be not too difficult, just not consistent
I'm getting depressed by fleets that are worse than mine winning because they have a level advantage
:(
They have level advantage, they are not worse 
IF
That's why u are often told to use max lvl ships when u start pvp instead of right comp but underlvled
I got bataan's ryuuseis synced with formi's stun
and it just deletes nonmeta frontlines instantly
it's pretty hilarious
well, considering only thing considered actual def is namayuu w/ stall vg...
do we know whether formi can hit vg targets with ryuusei that she's stunned herself
distance in pvp kinda too big for her to make it in time
in pve it works if enemy is not very back in the screen
like in previous event hard
boss was pretty close to middle
Formie could sync herself
but if boss was in the back it would be iffy
so not worth it over cudas?
not really
I ran an Namark setup a while back
It's pretty easy to delete VG overall, tbh
just that you still end up losing after cause lolHiryuu....
I'll try again with formi after I nearmax her, maybe Formi's defensive buff and tankiness will let the team actually survive final counter
what's that italian ship that protects allies from torpedoes? XD
?
it affects front vg
and the ship in the front most position i
and herself
neither of those things are formidable
but it's useless anyway
but it's prety meh
still
yeah when a ship is getting hit by like 7 torpedoes per strike
and they don't rotate
blocking 2 of them once is pretty turbogarbage
Centaur mood is down 
time to switch in to a real gacha

dunno If I should just oath DoY or JB



is it better to put AP main guns on ur BBs since they only target the other backline?
if the BB has a volley skill, would u put the fastest firing HE gun on her?
aight
pinned tierlist has gear section
Is San Diego meta yet?
not really, she doesn't offer anything new beside insane AA
which doesn't work against Big7 shell
exactly world 12

Don'tmake emsalty
Sandy Kai is not EN thing. It was somewhat a thing on asian servers, cause they got Sandy Kai in October 2k18 before Amagi and dragonkais, when foxes were meta
Idk where these obsessive ideas come from on global about SandyKai meta and other crap
rainbow rarity
Probably gamehelp plebies 
Cleveland/Helena/Sendai vanguard meta when?
that frankly makes no sense
sendai skill activates 10sec, good for foxes strike
Helena skill activates after 20 sec
good for Enty and other slow cvs
they don't work in 1 setup
also u bring sendai w/ 2 gunboats
that's 1 skill wasted

also sendai and helena both are paper botes, the offtank one will drop very fast, if not on opening torps
middle one will live a bit
i imagine
if u spam
#freehongkong revolution of our times
in general chat
p sure mods here will ban u

cos yostar is pro china
Time to find out 
is that torpedo launcher in the event worth grinding?
the gold quad mag
I have gold quints on my frontline rn, is that an upgrade?
yes
gold quad mags are generally a big upgrade over quints
higher dmg per torp on a tighter spread and faster load time, for only some loss of total salvo dmg
mag is just way better than everything else...?
yes cos mags actually hit enemies
non mags will just hit the waters most of the time
For PvP and auto bossfights that's the case
for automobbing normal 533s are fine, and for manual "optimally" you go either those or 610s, although magtorps can be much more comfortable to use
I'm wondering in this event,
what team you use vs the boss in SP3?
that boss suicides for me sometimes, and i lose the S rank on auto
that golden homing torp is the best for pvp right?
What's the new sub
SP3 you just need enough burst to kill boss from 20 bars before she kills herself
do you do it manual?
Nah
Just gotta play around a bit to see who has consistently the right timing
or use a dps ca or something
yea, im trying to figure that out too
to follow up
so which team you use?
that is a lot of oil
that what i thought

tbh full oil boss isn't stupid
it's optimal for cat XP
there is no good 1:1 to S rank it consistently on auto?
you'll need to make sure they don't mistime though and bring Spee to right under 20 bars then have to wait for next salvo
i think you need at least 2 backline
KGV is fine cause she has her desynced barrage, probably
you can test with jb or kgv solo
or adjust formation
Anyone with desync barrage should be safe if you set up gun timings right
KGV, Wash, Bama, etc.
Well I suppose if barrage fails it might be issue
spee only destruct at certain hp right?
i would say safe bet is jb + kgv
or just solo each and test
dk if going to be consistent for 1:1 tho
dork + jb could also work
slow her down and nuke her ass
that's probs the actual safest strat
or mogami
if that can 20-0 Spee alone, would be great
you could also 2 CA and run placeholder main, I think
she doesn't shell main, right?
she does
the window is so short, and on Auto, they dont really do that well
that why you need to test lol
xD
