amagi rerun soon
Rip indeed
but when tho
I hope so. I really like nagato though so am sad I missed her
for the longest time i used Hood, Enterprise, illustrious, eldridge, belfast, and another ship i forgot
Don't bother with it. Will have PR2 soon
but its not very meta now
Just get FDG that will solve most of your problems
That's 3 things I don't have lol
Need IB ships to grind exp
just use Sandy
also KMS backline
:^)
Gonna be interesting to see if I can even work on fdg
pr2 makes 0 impact in pvp forever since only dr ships are pvp viable and those take forever to even dev 20
you can just use enterprise, and the fox sisters
are there even perma KMS backlines
thats still decent
yeah, they really aren't that good
Not even kidding. Decisive bps 
But my first grind is azuma. I miss having fast amagi barrage
Was JB pve only? Don't think I saw her in any comps
by dev 25 azuma is when she really starts becoming good for pvp since she becomes a wall

I've heard that gascogne would be fine at low dev, is that true?
dunno about pvp but considering that she has mgm from skill and her barrage is pretty good u can use her whenever u want it just takes a bit before her mg shoots actually hurt
Do u think at some point gasco will be played in meta pvp teams?
i don't think she is pvp material
her barrage is more meant for screen clearing not burst dmg. her special aim doesn't really work in pvp. she has no synergy with any other ship
And ofc without multiple fights, she doesn't get too much out of her heal+evasion skill
wat is dis does it affect pvp 
probably
it's a small dps optimize that mostly affects sandy kita and seattle
It's the hand animation thing
basically 0 effect in pvp
Well, not really
kita is affected since 100mm is BiS, but Sandy probably only sees a small effect
t0+
you mean t-1
Seattle should be able to run her own gun now in double-gun config without losing DpS 
If they do the fix properly ofc
which wont happen
Hm, does formi need a beacon to sync better with cent?
Not really
jsut fuel tank with rudder?
you can run beacon on either Cent or Formi and still adjust it to work
Hm, actually, with cudas i guess there is no need in it. But with ryu it would be quite handy
Jet fuel is almost a necessity on Cent, yeah
aighty, thx
I wouldn't bother with drop tanks on FC
Their whole point is that they delete vanguards
fuel tank doesn't help with deleting vanguards, and for main fleet, after first strike, vanguard is already dead so AA is not an issue
Formi does pretty well
fairly tanky and is the most disposable after you kill vanguard
If you run a BB with it, that's fine too
KGV and monarch perform better in flag slot too
Preferred KGV tbh.
Just bkoz Monarch is with QE and WaKai keks

how far did you guys develope this
the passive boosts seem small at first but do add up I guess
7673 for me
mostly just a nice bonus, yeah, not really impactful
Also completely irrelevant for PvP since it doesn't apply in PvP
doesnt apply to pvp
aight imma head out
I only started to level it because I tohught it does ๐
Wasn't it bugged out in a way that you got a bonus in pvp?
that was patched days after release
and it was that your opponent got your fleet tech bonus, aka more fleet tech is bad
Their whole point is that they delete vanguards```
im p sure FC strength is on their backline pressure
and now with warkai its easier than ever
keeping enemy VGs alive actually helps your own VG to be safe from BB aux and nagato barrage
warkai shelling and normal CV bombs + formi slow/stop can take care of VGs anyways
also fleet tech does affect your fleet power when you attack
your def fleet doesn't get it tho
Yeah I prefer it if they don't pop Juneau before sinking a backliner.
It affects fleet power but that's a bug; it doesn't actually have any in-combat effects
yea i never tested if it actually applies in fights
just funny seeing different fleet powers in attack and def
If you want main fleet pressure, you don't run Formi
the whole point of Formi is to kill vanguard, which means that 2nd strike doesn't get slapped by AA, and maybe even unloads munitions on main fleet
Which leads the the second point, with FC aurora, drop tank is only useful for first strike; by second, their AA ships are all dead
is there anything that can beat a dev30 fdg?
Namagi 457 warkai is generally considered the other T0 comp for offense
Nagato-amagi-hiryuu also still does okayish
she hurts
Really hard to kill
does lots of damage
more of the former though
damage-wise, she's not the absolute top
well, ofc surviving longer = more damage too
fdg isnt top dmg at dev30?
Yeah, she's mostly shelling reliant
her barrage is meh, it's decent pressure on vanguard still apparently
Warkai and Georgia have her beat on damage output for same time, but ofc FdG sticks around longer
this is based off of calculations mostly right? or do some ppl already somehow have her at dev30?
Testing
pre-dev30 she's not good enough to displace other ships usually
dev30 both DRs within 4 months ๐ณ
it's possible to get the DRs in 4 months by whaling? im assuming on the coin research?
cubes is where it's at
this is CN though
they took like 2.5 years to do our 1 year of content, so might not have been ๐ณ at all technically
damn so people already have dev30 DRs lol.... wtf
so FDG is just hits pretty hard and mostly doesnt die?
Yep
DpS isn't very top, but ofc living longer = more damage
and ofc she soaks damage well
the whole point of Formi is to kill vanguard, which means that 2nd strike doesn't get slapped by AA, and maybe even unloads munitions on main fleet```
well thats not formi's whole point
its to have heavy backline pressure while still doing work on VG
going all in on VG pressure can get tricky especially with aurora
stall + cudas is just more consistent and no real weakness
georgia and warkai outperform her in dmg u said.... i thought georgia's dmg output is pretty bad outside of manual play?
i've put wfc at t0 with stall + cudas in mind
other variants are just inconsistent at times
Why would you even run Formi over other options then 
like what options?
Say, KGV, Amagi, Monarch, or even Enty etc.
from what i saw geoegia is heavy reliant on barrage hitting to do anything which works really well in pvp since opponents don't actually move
none of them does backline pressure while still slowing/stopping VGs so warspite+cent can just delete them almost 100% of the time
Hence
- the whole point being you wreck vanguard with her (compared to other options)
- you don't need to worry about AA much since you murder vanguard
again, she helps in murdering backline more than VGs cos VGs will die at some point anyway
Still, I don't see why you'd bother with drop tank/avgas on Formi
and you dont want to kill VGs fast anyways if you dont want nagato to just equalize your advantage
And ofc it's compared to other options
If formi didn't have her stop, I doubt we'd use her at all
if u use tank for "free" crash dmg u might as well use something that makes her survive longer and shoot more airstrikes instead
im using rudder + avgas
for reference
beacon does nothing as there is still an internal cd and you want to sync her with warkai anyways
and gold cata is a meme
either Rudder+beacon or Rudder+Kizbox for me
or even Rudder+Badge
nah badge is for cent
and rudder is more than enough for her to tank warkai+amagi focus
idk why syncing wsret with Formi matters
You're focusing main fleet with wsret anyways
she still dies like 1/3 of the time but its enough to get wins consistently
er you still want to kill enemy VGs no?
WSret shoots at main fleet though
2nd/3rd don't even match up with formi stop
it is
plus, does mk6 on her even reliably snipe her focus target?
im using triple 381
I couldn't get that to happen without 410AP
georgia gun might be best option once u get that
ah, I suppose HFCR 381 does match up with Formi stop on 2/3 salvos
457 is basically slightly more dmg and much faster 410AP, so for sure
yeah she snipes her target (hiryuu) just fine
Wait, Hiryuu focus over Amagi?
yep
killing hiryuu 1st when vg is around is better
wairing for her to snipe everything once vg is dead is a suicide
Killing amagi first though just ups your output a lot and greatly reduces theirs in my experience
I had more success focusing that way 
I suppose it's a off/def difference too
having enemy warkai focus Hiryuu is an easy win for offense
matches aren't that long for amagi focus to make a difference imo
so i just pick the one where i can get faster matches
from my testing so far im getting just the same winrate whether i focus hiryuu or amagi
problem is if u cannot force final counter before ur vg dies it gets much harder to win
Well, Amagi dead and Nagato soon to follow tends to mean enemy output drops enough that it doesn't really matter anymore in my experience
But I can see the argument for the other way around
if u can just delete amagi sure. if opponent amagi just decides to dodge everything then u might as well kill hiryuu 1st
cv dmg is bad if they drop everything on vg most of the time
yeah but at the same time amagi is tankier than hiryuu
meaning higher chances of just wasting your first barrage/salvos
It's more "letting Namagi have free reign as you struggle to finish Hiryuu"
at least that's how it is for Hiryuu on offense, I suppose def is different
Or it might be a FC warkai thing, since FC doesn't work on defense at all
I actually don't run HSFCR
with 410AP, it puts you right at the correct timing to get cucked by rudder
literally hits shots right at :40, so it's better to have the gun shoot that 3s slower 
Can't wait til 457 so that's not an issue
u'll wait quite a bit for it
yeah probably a niche for wfc
triple 381 lands exactly at 20s mark lol
just thinking about rudder procs makes me sad
but so far its no big deal
wait, shouldn't HSFCR 381 hit before 20s, at least first salvo?
cause 410AP hits literally right at 20s, and triple 381 should be faster
is this worth attacking?
whats top100 score?
Hmm, probably not?
Might still give you a +1 though since it's super early season
yea prolly a +1 or +2
1414 vs your 2014 looks like just 1 match done over you
+1 it was but i only went up to 1789 rank
Early-season rank jumps are just all over the place 
I misjudged this one I suppose
must be nice having movements on list

it actually is but it was like 2 people moved in like 30 min after daily reset
it gets much worse if u have high score in the +10 part of the season. the season when i reached 2607 i got days of +1 per reset...
people move at the same time so u land on people that already rushed
wow jp masterrace

็ฌ

so wait
are we getting the vg gun speed fixes
cause i see the patch notes and it "says" they're fixing the reload thing

i think en will get it just like the plane thing
u mean fixes for ships that aren't even in en
Can they fix the grammar error on belfast's oath skin?
No?
Ok

Been like it for 15 months now
jp has missing side scroll bar in mission page for at least 2 months now and no fix yet

no one knows the actual fix yet
oh 
AL fixing 
fix my "conserve energy" sign pls
what's wrong with it
pretty sure its been in chinese longer than it has in english at this point.
is there a bug report for it?
they put wrong asset in game. that imo is a bug
used to be in english
Right now, the absCD used in all reload calculations is related to the hand animation thingy
depending on how they fix it, our absCD numbers might change
this will have effects mostly on DD gun relative DpS, but potentially can also touch some edge-cases on CL/CA guns
Probably nothing particularly relevant for pvP though
i wish they would just remove hand animation all together tbh
and let stuff happen how it's supposed to
i was reading the article
and it hits kitakaze/sandy/seattle the most
aka ships with high reload, fast guns, and MGM+1
(although seattle has MGM+1, aux, and a fake aux)
(for 4 total guns lol)
didn't count asw depth charge
poor kita can't even fire her weapon properly. with autoloader and oxy u get 0.7 mg reload
even with absolute cds that is 1.06 and she is forced to fire at 1.2
=(
oh right seattle gets 5 guns
cause depth charge
xD
i cant hold all these guns
lol triple barrage (ws/monarch/dork)
Is this where my journey just ends?
My meme team isn't able to compete with these defense fleets even with attacker bonus
How often do the refreshes Regen?
u get 5 each day after daily reset
Oof. Well I guess I can hope that I get lucky tomorrow
wait how can't u beat a 4k main fleet comp?
it's probably like a high level solo
It's all lvl 120 stuff
And my highest is bisq who I don't use for PvP for obvious reasons

https://streamable.com/zazsa
https://streamable.com/8viuk
testing amagi vs hiryuu focus
hard to say which is better if both of them work just the same
I'm actually fuming right now. Should i stop sleeping forever and ever
still fine if you wont go for eos ranks
For defense, tanking with Hiryuu is noticeably better imo
Often can't even get past Hiryuu before you win
Not sure how well that carries into offense though
is that 13.9k vg legit? seems way too high

prolly 1 oxy or smth
yea seems like his vg is dying faster than usual
@dusky venture
whats your gears on VG? 
hmm actually might be legit cos my sheff/jun/ykkz has 13.7k
power of gold boilers 
i guess it's rainbow torp. the only i have is on kita and i reach 13.3k
Sanrui does really poorly vs FC anyways
1.1 for aviation torps on med vs 0.8 on light
similar situation with bombs
why test that when you can try other more fun things
it's basically mathematically proven
xD
oh i meant wfc vs namaryuus
any reason for using the sea fury?
does sea fury have a skill? owo
rip

Basically slightly faster-loading modified F6F
t0 cannons lol
better PvP stats than Seafang
i just use w/e plane for timing but if i have pirate then thats better ig
(more crash, more HP)
PvP
- Wiki people, probably

so i guess t0 20mm cannons are like 1% stronger than t3?
They're actually quite a bit stronger
oh, then this wiki table is wrong
puts AA roughly on par with F6F
it has 4x t3 20mm cannon
Well, depends on what "quite a bit" means
iirc it can get off two shots during intercept though, when T3 version can't
oh 3.42 to 3.67
7% in burst

13% in dps
so basically the difference only reaaaally matters on intercept
in pve
i doubt 7% aa burst is even a factor in pvp
anyways ill now put wfc at t0 in tierlist
anyone who disagrees?
tho namaryuu is still way better in def
too much work 
yea lol
is there any other def fleet that matters other then namaryuu?
how well does HMS warkai do on defense anyways when not facing Hiryuu?
bad still, at least to me
not sure havent found one
From using various FC, it actually does pretty well from what I can tell
i had a monarch/ws/qe one i think all 120
FC does poorly, almost non existent
Like, LFC at least gets completely demolished
but i was using ws/amagi/formi on that fight
and i basically wall their damage
using amagi buff and formi buff
and they all focus fire their guns on amagi
who has rudder/armor
aka get trolled
Yeah, but then how well does that team do elsewhere

cause if you include tech, Hiryuu = lol at that team
im pretty sure id be fine with kgv/ws/amagi too
amagi stat difference is just too large
to run triple hms
and because warspite focuses their shots on her target
you just ruin their ability to damage others
besides rng
and monarch 0 luck is a well known problem
xD
maybe a fleet without monarch
would be better
i dont think qe helps either since she cant pressure her lane opponent cause of the target command from ws
honestly kgv being desynced from ws first barrage is probably best bet
Probably, I'd take KGV over monarch tbh for full HMS main fleet
because this helps crush the vanguard faster
idk, KGV with just normal gun imo
and makes it so you can spread damage with her barrage
hmm are there any other new t0 attack comps
Basically anything Warkai 
i mean, counter still hurts
assuming you get nagato barraged and clipped by a shell
you will lose vg first
well, winning VG fights doesn't exactly save your VG
if anything, secondaries means it's worse
no, but winning vg means FC triggers while they're alive
i wont rate just anything with warkai as t0 tbh
plus, if their VG is alive, there's no time accel
not like i tested anthing other than fc kek
which time accel is a major plus for Hiryuu
NamagiWS seems also very WS and also very Namagi
i dunno if triple hms can soak FC + strike with no vg shield
assuming you've been nagato barraged once
but dunno
ah yea namagiWS should be another one
especially if they run torp memes xD
I think I have all the pieces to test WSFoxes too
what VG do you run with that anyways?


aurora i would guess
i mean aurora is a given
ibuki aurora ykkz/jun?
the other 2 are always yuki juneau
i think yuki should stay for the final counter personally but i dunno
Is that team supposed to work kinda like FCwarkai, or what
yea prolly jun aurora ykkz then
but less reliable because no broken centaur barrage for slow
just run 818 on akagi
818 can miss all together
you can if you really want
Hm, i think she might fit in. Dork middle, monarch top and ws bottom
She should be fine
NUKE HARDER
Should be better than kgv at focusing target down
i mean maybe if you rig dork guns to always go first
kgv isnt about focus
it's about slapping everyone
and everything
xD
Well, 50% firstload boost should be enough for slapping imo
quads have the highest chance of hitting vg
because they cover the most area
best we'll ever get
xD
Like, idk why y'all are so focused on hitting vanguard with a 3BB HMS Warkai team
Me neither
i like not eating double air strike to the face
it isnt about keeping them alive, it's about when you proc counter
so?
How does killing their vanguard help absorb final counter
if anything, it's worse
with theirs alive, even if yours dies, you won't have time accel
dont dive bombs derp out when you push up?
no?
at least they seem to on their positioning
for me
the density always seems off
or maybe the ghost planes dont target close or w/e

been so long since i played 3BB
CVs are just more consistent in general so i never looked back

like, part of the super annoying thing with Hiryuu counter is time accel
15 s effectively becomes 30 s
If your vanguard dies, letting their vanguard live is a positive for that
not like vanguard is a threat with their main fleet dead if you run 3 BB
i guess it's different for triple hms since the gun focus isnt derped out
or they arent running torp
Yeah, with CVs it makes sense cause then your CV pushes damage through to main fleet
But with warkai 3BB you're wasting damage on their vanguard... so you waste less damage on vanguard later? 
Cart before the horse here
I dunno, so far kgv was quite a let down for me with 3 hms bbs setup.
i mean, letting torp live even a bit longer irritates me
xD
shooting them sooner, means less damage both vg and main takes
;)
Killing enemy main fleet ship also reduces damage taken :)
well yeah, but it depends on armor amagi or not
and because i assume people are drawn to memes like me
i assume rudder/armor amagi
so i must counter myself
;)
just kill everyone instead
then no need to worry
man lists mega dead
Yeah, I think I got 3 people pushing total today 
i already ate +0 last reset 
Hm, i guess 406 is the only option for dork. Gonna test her out, too bad that with her focusing top slot is the only choice to capitalize on having her
hsfcr
that is solved by ws
hsfcr is on monarch, but switching might be
Well, it lets her 381 to avoid rudder cucking
Yeah, WS mostly solves Dork's inconsistency issues
If she doesn't work, I'm pretty sure it's cause the team doesn't need the extra damage Dork brings, and prefers more survivability or something
20%
she'd be fine for tank slot or w/e
as utility bot
kinda like formidable utility bot
dork with ws focus actually sounds interesting
i know what to test next 
She makes sense if damage output is the issue
but most Warkai teams really don't have output issues, she already snipes+focuses pretty hard
Ye, i'm gonna do it right now
amagi or maybe qe as third ig
qe 
amagi 
too bad i have no bonuses so im stuck with nothing to try it on
xD
wait, i do have something
on refresh lol
owo
so far, monarch and ws doing all the work
can anyone outlive all that focus lol
in late spring
more like late fall
there's no dev 30 azuma in late spring
lol
0 chances
i think even the whaliest whale wouldnt be able to do that
if someone just has like 2k cubes why not
4 months seems to be the whale time for dev 30
ah ok
i'm sitting on 450 for 2 weeks now because i started doing more cube researches
maybe i should swap to juneau/sheffield/ykk with this team
i think that would be more amusing
meh, very little dmg from crescendo. First salvo is okay but quite random
nice and comfy 560 for me
Probably ~600 with mail cubes too
doy's first skill does something similar to old ws or even lesser
i still feel bad for wasting cubes on research but it only took 80 cubes for current event and pr3 is not that far away
just thinking about more dr to max in different seasons seems impossible
Tbtsk or proto triple 152mm for bisko's aux gun?
i would say nepgun
2x2 doesn't really help bismark hit stuff at that range
it just feels like tbtsk is much worse

cya what's your score rn?
number of attempts?
cause i'm sitting with 8/10 with around that number
nothing left considering i need around 140 bps for azuma and around 200 for fdg

i hope they break their contract with slavgaming and stop making pr
fuck..
lel
pr/dr cv has to happen. but i really hope no trash russian ship turned into op pr ship
That will be trully a tragic day, the child of yongshi and russkiygaming will be balanced as fuck and not biased at all
meh, i hope ivans will get izumo treatment
mighty soviet ships straight out of stalin's ass
french or uss flagship would be a godsent
i highly doubt any pr will be a flag
there is no reason for a ship that never exited in the 1st place to have flagship skill
can't wait for hand animation to be fixed so seattle with double seattle can stop sucking.... 11-4 boss btw
aren't those in pins?
lol
ah yes, truly the finest of names
instead of like
pvpDestroyerAdjustment or something
_>
oh actually that makes sense
i think google puts destroyer = deportation
at least when im on wiki
more like cn code is named logically
even translated it basically tells you what it means
buff_61 tells me nothing
lol




What's the highest EoS points someone's gotten here
so dork/amagi/ws is pretty hilarious
@empty grove are those pics with ppl getting 2620+ bugged ones?
maint in 2 minutes 
starve them all
forgot to feed dorm.
skill book?
T6 was awful, only 150 per run
i wouldn't clear it even if im not busy 
you monster 
if I wasn't still working, I would have cleared it on the first week
maybe not because T6



and it may never come 

Go to sleep, we can't sandbag with maint 


Well, it will help in avoiding rudder proc

from what i can tell, the mg fixes seems to be good. i tested with my kita and the barrage points seems to change when equipped with autoloaders. it goes from 2:12->2:16 4 sec faster barrage with 2 autoloaders
i read that but at least kita is no longer capped it seems
around 5sec difference after 3 barrages with double autoloader
owo
are there any breadgun changes? poor sandy seems unchanged
double autoloader or not her 2nd gun barrage happens at the same exact time...
actually sandy with mle seems to be kind of fucked lol.
double autoloader
3rd atlanta barrage 2:22
2nd sandy barrage 2:19
without autoloaders
3rd atlanta barrage 2:20
2nd sandy barrage 2:19
like wtf
server up but server down 
same
they fucked up light build image and it had sirius and swiftsure
lol why do people run their full 14k-15k powered vgs and main fleets for defense in 4 digit ranks?
i wonder why people don't use actual fleets on defense at all levels
memes and waifus are just as useless
because u dont lose anything from defense
almost no one cares about meme comps or waifu taste either
dis feels weird 
My def fleet is the most powerful 
how close were u to scrapping everyone
does sanrui need boiler? cause she already has her blue skill
or should i slap rudder+beaver on her?
Mine has rudder + bulge
Speed-wise, Sanrui is basically a CL

How the fuck did formi launch first
Someone messed up loadout~
Can I get Enterprise to launch her airstrike in 20~ seconds?
can any cv without double fighter slot even get below 20s 
I think 20-21 seconds just to counter Warspite retrofit
then u hav to use subpar planes probably
messerchmitt 
yea u definitely hav to use messer with beacon to even reach 20-21s
Skyrocket 
tho if u hav 200 aff enty then u might be able to get a 21s just with beacon alone with bis planes
@midnight heron Just 100 affinity
then theres no way other than using some trash planes
I could use a Skyrocket, it is the best compromise
vf17 is the fighter from fallen wings?
yea the pirate squad
So maybe I'm missing something but why is this set of lvl 120s have such a low power rating
Poor equip or no equip at all
Oh ok
So I can probably win. Thanks
Good luck



time to join rusher squad
1st Onahole 
Am a bit confused. So I'm around 700 but my matchups are 1400 right now isn't it bad to attack someone lower than you
Also yikes
@proper thistle your left most target should be higher rank than you. If not, use a refresh
It wasn't
Thanks for the tip
Did you previously use up all your attacks before reset?
Usually that's how you end up higher rank than your left most target
Yup, that explains it
Usually people save a few attacks to avoid scenarios like this
Ah
But that's only if you really care and are trying to achieve Admiral of the Fleet at the end of the season
I don't think I can seriously compete yet anyway so it's more or less irrelevant to me
Still working on a viable comp
Attacking someone lower than you will only really make you lose 1-2 points anyway
If you are not trying to be competitive, I would argue peace of mind is worth more than 1-2 points
Poor lass
No, Pearl is elsewhere if someone else can afford a slot for it
Makes for much smoother healing
stacking both Pearl+Juneau will mean your heal will often go off too late or too early (in different matches with the same team too)
That makes sense too
If your fill ship can use pearl better than boiler, i use it
But Im using juneau/nep/ykk so junie is the best ship to use it on
I think my Frontline will be Jun/Bel/Yuki in whatever order is correct
Or maybe using Aurora in there

When I was using bel, she had the pearl. Her job isn't to survive
Aurora gets the pearl for sure
It's all tentative rn since they are below lvl 90 so not even usuable by a stretch
But working in getting them up. Just got Yuki recently so she's gonna take a minute
I don't have centaur yet so I think I'm gonna keep spamming special build whenever I can
Waiting for event reruns for the op sr s
That I don't own
For now I'm relying on Akagi and hood which is a weird comp I guess
Well good to hear it's not completely off base
Just outdated
This is what was suggested to me some time earlier
dont waste too much cubes
waiting for wishing well is better imo
rolling for something with no rate up is 
Yea I think I'll just try daily and hope
Which is an oof
Hiryuu and enty both still need a lot of work too
Basically never really did much for PvP
Aside from fox spam
Nothing wrong with fox spam. It works against most casual comps
Yea it's been surprisingly ok
Of the above two suggestions which would you say sounds more viable
Since it will take me a while
Aurora Bel I have both at lvl 90 mlb
Yuki is smol at like lvl 30-40 or so
Jun is like lvl 70s
I wouldn't mind yea
Quick look at what I have that I think is tiered
Tiered being used loosely
Roon and monarch both dev 20 or lower
wait pls tell me you have warspite sword

kgv monarch cent should work best then
Monarch at like 13 though
Is she even worth
Gonna take me time to get those bps
Like 200+ to get her to 25
Which is a few months
I think
Oks I'll do that
shes p much a better hood
also just level jun+ykkz
as for 3rd vg, belfast should be a safer pick than aurora especially when you're underlevelled/undergeared
you want them both anyways if you want to try out different comps
:MutsukiStare-1:
Is there a better vg I could piece together currently from what I have
mostly for smokescreen
Or just the level disparity is too high
and decent stats
Basically my idea was put some hp between my main fleet and their dps
And my only option is my pve ships
well if you dont mind taking losses
you can still use underlevelled botes for free exp
I suppose that's true
So Jun Yuki and Bel theoretically
And I'd give Bel tears ?
yep
Which I'm still like one star away from. Waiting on 18k exp bounty to finish for Arizona to lvl up
Would anyone care to share their gear for Jun/Yuki/Bel?
yea that too
jun uses boiler/toolbox + bulge
bel uses boiler/bulge + pearl
ykkz uses boiler + fire ex
jun bel ykkz if they are all maxed
if jun is underlevelled just hide her behind bel first
if you are relatively new i wouldn't care too much about pvp tbh
since meta atm are too strong for newbie to even move past 1k
your best bet is to get ships to 120
after that comes gearing them up
I guess idk how rushing or whatever works or the concept behind it
is early ss
But I'm sitting at like 500
late ss is where the fun at
Ah
Also is defense fleet a meme or not
Because idk anymore
Can someone enlighten me
early ss ppl just let you have ez win to get those bonus point
late ss is where they put up their meta
So defense is meme early season

Makes sense I guess
defense fleets dont affect your score
most it can do is to stall/annoy ppl and well i guess it can wall newbies
My pve fleet isn't 120 let alone PvP

So gonna take a sec
But yea stuff to work on I guess

Appreciate everyone taking the time
also tbh i would just say fuck it with anything that is not PR 2 meta tbh
Have some stuff to work towards now
PR 2 is in like what 2 weeks max
What is that meta then?
And won't it take months to get those ships viable
just use your res on getting azuma and fdg
Which factions were those two
fdg ws nagato amagi
azuma ykk jun

Don't own nagato amagi anyway
and they are just inferior to normal meta botes on half baked dev levels
something tell me you don't even have ws kai



i am really enjoying dork/amagi/ws xD
Is there a list of good ships in pvp?
I am leveling some low level ships and I figure I could also level some ships if they are good for pvp specifically

Might just be a bit out of date on some stuff
Jun, Yuki, Bel, Aurora, Hiryuu are some common ones though
Basically newest development is just about anything decent paired with Warspite retrofit is amazing
Rerun for sword when 
Damm, I don't see my fav ship, Roon anywhere on the list
She's not good for pvp
Pve is her niche
From what I hear, iron blood in general dont fare very well in PvP
Interseting that yukikaze is everywhere on the list
Yuki let's you live longer so id assume that's why she's popular
Helps your VG stall while your main fleet pumps out dps
her and juneau yea
thats why typical VG setup is almost always Jun+ykkz+ anyone decent
Is there a better option for getting my random PvP botes up higher 
They are pretty frail
So grinding is iffy
@neon trench pvp in this game is about just using whatever ship is most broken
yukikaze is extremely broken
therefore yukikaze is everywhere
lol
just farm for gear BPs and plates in lower maps
p sure even lv 50s can handle w6
so the idea in pvp is to make your vanguard peel for your main ships
and the main ships will carry then..?
getting yukikaze is going to be such a pain
but yea VGs are there for support and tanking
just slap fire suppressors on everyone 
Well, Yukikaze is the only one that with a FE mounted survives long enough for FE fire reduction to matter
For the rest, before you get to the point where FE's reduction matters, they've sunk
I scrapped my boilers because #gameplay-help said they were bad 
Forgot they were used for pvp
why yukikaze in pvp use twin 100gold not 76mm or 120mm? the blue one got better RoF for her barrage right?
for the AA stat
