Time = implosion of spaghetti
I barely got kicked to higher rooms at all in Avrora, where the problem started
Maybe if AL rents it's servers
Maybe they expected less load and didn't rent extra capacity
refreshed into a blue azuma research. nice refresh for once
goodbye cruel world
๐ซ
idk with the amount of money al makes i don't think that they can't afford some servers
Traitor 

passing trough maint chat seems like cn had problems too and now is up... if they just fixed cn there are 0 hopes for pre reset fix for en
๐ฅ servers
lost 5 tixes when everyone is suppose to be on lock down (AKA more hand on deck to fix shit)
EN was and forever will be a mistake

Imagine we hit 24 hours maint like fgo
free oath rings 

I i get oath ring i ll marry on yuku
rip exercise
i was hoping to sbag but
now I wasted like 3 attempts due to this..
outage
i lost straight 5
they should halt exercise
during server maintenance and outage
and slowly let it run back to normal
too much work and most people even don't care about pvp
oof but merit
I heard 24 hour maintenance
cn compensation lol
i used 1 pvp before second maint
im far ahead
10 mins max left after that u can't even use all attempts
Last time this happened
It went up like 14 mins after reset
Lets see if they can go under that

Nah
i knew i should have burnt all 5 when server came up 
don't remind of maint ending just after reset. last time i tried keeping my attempts for after maint in jp it ended 5 mins after reset but it usually ends 1hr-30min before reset...
i was so mad
Starting to question why I do PVP tbh
this maint gonna end :01 
this maint is endless
I just wanna reach 1mill merits
The one season I actually sandbag is the season that is fucked over by maint 
after that i might stop
lemme guess you got 17 pts
rip lol. Yeah I usually have best girl Nep as my secretary.
but subs are a pain in the ass to level affinity

and I wanna finish the albacore quests cause she's funny
alba does have a pretty good questline
well pvp is not bad but then stuff like this happens and it all goes to shit without u doing anything wrong
i guess ill learn my lesson and always just burn at least down to 5/10 after maint
since this thing has happened a few times now
it shouldn't be this way tho

Nah this will be at least the third.
life is just gamble
theyve messed it up by making infinite pvps one time too 
Unless Im mixing up with DST shenanigans
the infinite pvp thing LOL
Yay, now I can sleep at a reasonable time
now how much time after maint will servers be up? i would guess less then 20 mins
DST memes
1 minute 

2624 
i dont really mind though
ill settle for top 50 at least
They removed most glitched attempts
Issue there tho
It boosted the overall curve so +1 & +2 was more common

but that old UI
well spent 2 nights consecutively trying to get bonuses for nothing 
How many charges you guys lose?
5

4
15
feelsbadman
15

weebgame 

I think people in asia have the best time now
4 as well
Since they played till 5/10 before they went to sleep

It's over


i hope we don't get cn compensation https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/321284912894443520/690265463808196610/Screenshot_20200319-142801.jpg?width=724&height=335
i don't need that
we should get a second sandy stage ATLEAST
dont need fucking dorm
Is that boosts my dorm happiness i'll take that too
heckin pvp rounds

gimme 2500 merits 

i just want 75 score at least added to my current one
Already gave up on this season cause of 5 missed attacks earlier, guess that 5 has now become 10 

remember that one time they gave us duplicate merit mail lol. They gave us like 10k merits that DST debacle
Just give us all a free gold Bulin and I'll be happy
they didn't fix anything else tho. that season was rigged all the way trough even tho some people had impossible scores
give me every limited ship

Clearing mode
Give us an actual ranked PvP system

Real-time PvP when?
@stable dawn pick up an empty bottle and head to your nearest bar 
dunno how much al pvp needs to be changed. what i would want is bonuses for defense victories more then changing the actual battle
I was hoping the PC game would be the solution to real time PvP and then it just didnt happen
pff remove quad hp plane 
if you remove the damage reduction, defense has advantage due to positioning
just run ibuki/noshiro/juneau
Just removing the ability to restart will change things a lot
removing dmg reduction would make fight much more rng dependent
Rip pvp
you gotta make torps not reach backlines for both sides
But the problem is only EN would be affected
Cause JP/CN culture would just result in everyone putting up joke fleets
what if equip noshiro double rainbow torp?
How to restart pvp?
they reset pvp once. time for a 2nd time?
inb4 pvp scores get balanced out that everyone is the same again 

if pvp no dmg reduction im sure cn jp will start using srs fleet
@verbal kelp we're referring to the ability to restart a match by exiting out of it before you lose. Which essentially let's you retry the fight indefinitely without penalty until you RNG win
if pvp had no dmg reduction all u see is ibuki noshiro comps with jb
why jb
preload
Make each PVP match have a chance to delete account
.
@charred sable thanks so much ๐

@verbal kelp the fact that there's no penalty for retry is one of the main things that make AL PvP ranking a joke, essentially considering that the ranking system is more based on participation than actual fleet strength
Didnโt even know we could do that, thank you
well i'm off to bed the maint won't end anytime soon it seems anyway
compensation(10 gems) 
if we even get those

well , rip season
Lol
โฐ

I missed 5 before already... these other 5 will kick me in the butt towards the end 
Can't get behind in the season if everyone misses out :thinkThonk:
get 5 attacks before close servers ๐
True true, but the others probably didn't miss 10 total so far
so they should be ahead anyways 
its only losing 50 points
just sandbag it back
Yeah, I did a few I think (hope)
so eh, did we miss a few attacks?
it's more than 50
5 are gone if you didn't play since maintenance start
Rushers always win
LMFAO
We'll be getting compensation in 3 business days 
The funny thing is, if I had just said "fk it, let's just use all 10 attacks every time cause I missed 5 earlier" before maintenance then I would actually have caught up lol
oh wait it let me in 2nd try
asdsacxdacas\zdfewhyrtg
no apologem
what is this blackmagic
I mean
african american magic
They'll wait for it to die down
& then give out less than normal
Also just got server booted

lol, no bonus points even 
f
Servers up 
and booted 
I got booted on starting a comm
I got food in my dorm and next batch of ships in the academy

still a little ๐ฅ
Servers are shit
inb4 AL shuts down at the end of 2020
i guess you are talking about economic crisis?
my rank goes up from 5000 to 1000 from one win +20 point
does this mean all rank 1000-5000 are sanbaggers

it means that you have spare time right after maintenance
I win 1
but I expect sandbaggers to be around r2000 10/10
Oh hey, game's back. Any chance top 100 next week will be different?
Very likely
Those who sandbagged ate a -5
And boy does the in-game chat hate us here
they prob went to general or help
No one PvP any more. Too many flexes makes ladder stagnant
Also... 5
seems a small compensation...
& that guy I was talking to in there got banned from here awhile back
Not here specifically but ALO
I don't think it's that hard to get banned in the bigger channels.
try memeing on general or help and a mod will be on you real quick
i remembe the good ol days when help was a meme channel
and was named #help instead of what it is now
that was the time when mods still try and keep all conversation here pvp focused 
Can I get an opinion on Avrora top-10? Almost 1k on a Thursday. That seems high even if they didn't rush.
not everything is compltely lost!
looks a guy who miss ticket like me
AHAHAH
@sour oasis did u miss ticket form last night disaster?
Yes
if u dont miss ticket is so easy to get x10
*10
if all rusher go sandbagging they guaranteed top10
no
cuz last night
all sandbeggar losing ticket
x4-x5
if people rushing that time and dont lose ticket
But the top 3 in Avrora is nearly 1k.
Yes, but my question was, because of outage, is it possible to have 1k points right now.
I just wanna calculate the posibilities of getting top 10 accoarding to your point
if you dont miss any ticket ofc its possible
I have almost the exact score as you. Just passed 850, 5 Tix left.
but last night people losing all ticket except some
I question how to reach 1k before next refresh, even if I had 10 tickets left.
Impossible for which example?
But someone did already.
You just said at 800, +5 x10, would be impossible to reach 1000. But someone clearly did that.
i just woke from sleep and see the chaotic chat here about losing tix
good thing i already use my tix before sleep 
Close enough to yes.
u can reach top 10 with 4-6 lost tix, at least in lexington for me tho
as long u still sandbag till the end

he mean he want top10 before next reset
oh
idk, just try it then, dont wanna be a food just to test it 
985 isn't 1000
- Close enough to 1k. Should that be possible by right now with rushing?
whats his point
800?
before x10
is it 800?
or 850?
once you get captain you only get 10 point isn't it?
OK then if they sandbag until 790, then rush 10 tickets right before the second maintenance, then sandbag again, 990 is feasible
that 1st guy is definitely not legit tho
did he get rolled back and the they gave him score without removing attempt or something?
just getting 60 pts ahead of 2nd means like a good amount of negative bonuses....
10+ tix? 
10 seems about right tbh
Game error in their favor. Can we report that?
i don't think they actually fix pvp scores like that

if he keeps rushing the amount of negative bonuses he gets will balance him out but if u start sandbagging with that advantage and most sandbaggers already out it's easy 1st rank eos
lol

both 1st and 2nd aren't legit scores. if only i knew how to get free attempts like that
are u sure is only 1 reset? like my best with all attempts was around 990 without bonuses and he is ahead by 60 pts and i doubt he actually sandbagged before
That's 5 matches
All those 4 seem like they have glitched matches is what i'm saying
not when no one gives u base for 5 attempts tho
If I didn't lose attempts i'd be around 995-1000 if I did all 10
what i'm saying is u don't get 60 pts in 5 attempts when u are already rank 1
that's for sure
Top 2-4 are on like hardcore sandbag tier points
2-4 are possible scores for sandbaggers but did u ever see those names end season?
Nope
Which is why they're 100% glitched out too
No sandbagger full pushes now anyway
so top 4 full glitch lol
1100 points ok
im at 841 with 6/10
im 856 with 5/10 losing 4 tixs
idk, being 60 points up from r2 now is 6 tix up
i'll end up with 874 5 behind by the end of the reset
that's a full 10 attempts ahead of the normal people
Lets see if yostar really cares for pvp 
did they ever cared about pvp? the only actual good thing they ever did to fix pvp was that one season where they reset everyone scores after 3-4 days
its not like that I think
I'm a game developer too
from my point of view
about azur lane as a gamedeveloper
I would rather spend time trying to add more game mechanic to make the game not dying and make it more interesting
rather than fixing pvp
you know the game still need more plot
and more mechanic
to keep it alive
and they release ark knight
cuz its like their 2nd plan
So the points gained seems to be more rng to me 
it's two different groups of people
clearing mode for story maps is a good thing but it isn't new tbh. all they seem to add is content to a fault
arknight and azure teams are not the same guys
im a buisnessman
I wont sink all my money to develop one game
if I where them I would've make arkknight
as 2nd plan
2nd income
*were
Not really rng, there is a base point per match and bonuses after
i bet same businessman created new fallout
the "RNG" part is more like if the people you get will actually move
even then the current r1 in Avrora is pretty impossible if legit
when a score is a bit ahead of others it can be a sandbagger rushing. when the score is a lot ahead is mostly impossible
i don't know about others but fappin on boobs in azurlane isn't enough for me. I want some challenge, but not in grinding find i pleasure
its simple
if his score is higher than the one in pins with "max sandbagging" (which is already impossible) then you know theres smth wrong

^
omg i just got network error twice in a row on my jp account... don't want to lose more attempts today pls
where is grinding exp after 100lvl more efficient?
or it's a matter of mvp and nothing else
12-4 seems to be the place everyone goes for xp. i usually prefer w9 for 1:1 instead of using more ships
I lost 4 ticket and now staying at 5/10 I still meet bunches of sandbagger instead of bunshes of rusher
feelsbadman
looks this mofo
he atk 1
and his rank
goes from 2k to 1.4
and never atk again
being so behind u'll only meet people that are behind
it's not even all that bad since people that lose attempts usually just start rushing instead of sandbagging
So we're pretty much 10 behind the usual rushers
I wonder if r1 got in before emergeny maint, used all attempts and got them back after
maybe
most likely. some weird rollback could also be a thing
875 
wouldn't be a bad idea
they did. one of the DST ones
back when they fucked up quite badly and give attempts to people that didn't deserve them
welp not risking this score too... seems like people can't login to my server now
speaking of illegit scores... like all top 20 has better scores then me 
Does any of the current top scores look legit tbh 
my score max is 1112 that's impossible
makes sense
rollback to 7/10
same score btw
will they reset season
maybe?
don't even know if i can even use jp as an example to explain what happened to en and how people got extra attempts. i don't think i can do anything for my jp server since no way of contacting the devs that i know of
im fine with losing my 4 attempts if they just mail me a purin ๐
now the question is.... do i abuse the extra attempts or just keep playing like i'm at 5/10...
ABUSE
i think i'll just quit pvp this season and become food. like no reason to try when everyone is bug-abusing
I'll try a little longer and see what happens
how to win torpedo band... so annoying
i just abused 2 attempts and i'm still 40 pts behind current 1st. it's like pointless to even try and get a good score
don't play torp on offense that's how u win
i don't have other ships and it irritates me

against that u should use a ca tank
very powerful but even when i defeat vanguard , main ships stay alive with a small amount of hp
anyway, i have 5 hours left to win
isn't it optimistic
What's your current fleet you're using?
i don't have decent girls
No ykkz?
she is 100lvl
Backline is fine for the most part
Ah ic
You should go Noshi Jun Ykkz later on
i am only 71 lvl, Jun for me is like the Mars for Elon Mask
do you have formidable and centaur?
those 2 are like the better CVs to use over foxes now
it's all i have around 100lvl
i spend 100+ cubes on centaur within a month but nothing
It's ok
how come saint louis so good in pvp?

everyone using her for some reason?
just wondering but what how do you sandbag effectively in pvp? 
i've heard this term a few times now
People use sanrui cause they saw it on a tierlist once 
her actual use is for stall-vanguard vs Aurora since she doesn't eat the debuff
pre-azuma ofc since azuma literally just does that better
Ibuki is also obviously preferred if you need another vanguard IJN for some reason, or want to be more of a torpteam
Though Azuma also replaces that role too 
Vs non-aurora, stall team will prefer nep, bel, or sheff more than sanrui
Sandyret also an option if you want to hate on people running CVs
Or just run aurora, who beats all of those four in Nagato/Amagi/Hiryuu/Juneau/Ykkz mirrors
Noshiro though has all of those beat
And then we have the pinnacle of vanguards, Azuma
I second a reset of scores. 
Yes, extended maint for minor events and fixing when overnights come up
you know what, that might have been what messed up the servers
something always goes wrong when they change time
i second them trashing their current servers and buying brand new ones

dido qe oath 
they snuck in matches during the bad connection period xD
people used attempts and got rolled back. instead of having both old score and old attempts before rollback they ended up with old attempts and retained the new score
i reported it in bug reports and the answer was that they know but nothing more
As if devs care about PvP 

anything they do is usually just to appease this channel anyways
casuals wont even notice the difference
not like pvp is rewarding so it's basically ignorable
they could just give you 1 free bulin of your choice every 2 weeks
I'd like an extra bullin..
and it would function the same
and maybe like exp tickets
this game could use exp tickets
Exp tickets?
there are still some people that enjoy pvp
of course there are
and they are a tiny % of the pop
when i say exp tickets i mean a use item you can give to a ship for exp
since pvp is oil free exp
like in girls frontline/honkai
tbh with everything that happened after maint i couldn't care less about incoming event. like i actually lost all interest in it
im looking forward to it but that's because baltimore class
the problem is also uss ships just aren't interesting for pvp till they actually get a flagship
and i don't think an essec class cv will be flagship
should have given us the full power birmingham

941 
hmmm
u should use attempts so u can get rolled back and get more attempts
k
fox and lena
maybe fox lv1 passive with slow load plane
i'm trying to be positive here
do I need to leave game?

u should try and logout normally
it booted me
to login sreen
motherfuck
every action can randomly exploded out of the game
AGAIN?
IM DOING DAILY AND ITS LIKE THIS AGAIN
im dpoing daily and it doesn't reset
I was 1/3
I finished
and still 1/3
!!?!?!
IS THIS INFINITE COIN?
u just got rolled back
will m y coin reduced
most like lost what u gained
rollback tix 
what kind of apologem is this
OHHH
losing 4 pvp tix
for 1 gold bulling
and 200 gem
nice
i didn't get anything in jp...
and my server had extra maint
I wanna replace my qe with something tanky and deal alot of dmg non event ship or pr what to do
this my current pvp fleet
should I randomly put soviet ship in?
qe doesn't do much to that team
what u seems to need is fdg. u can try hiryuu as well
I dont have blue print D:
she can at least tank with final counter
tanky and dmg is a lot to ask tbh. not many ships can do both
u should ask phoenix he used her in pvp even tho it seems like he doesn't like her
@hot creek
he might be asleep. imo she should be viable by dev 25 since she gets most defensive stats but she would still lack 1 mgm
gyroscope vs boiler on gun cl?
boiler hp is more important then hit for cl
ur vg dmg is usually not that important especially cl guns. u want them to survive and win vg battle
Only vg who wants extra hit being zoomer anyway
And even then her hit already big
So kinda redundant?
at 8k hp and 0 luck boiler extra hp is much less worth then hit for azuma
Ye but even then just slap extra evasion lah
HP obviously big nope tho
Or just get extra MSPD
my cleveland+helena+ykkz doing like 20-40% their front vs at 22s before my enty bombing
Even fooken armor basically situational on her
*vg
And torpmeme just gonna eat her armor anyway with VH
azuma usually handles most vgs by herself. the ones that u struggle against are mirror azuma yukikaze
that's the difference in between azuma and cl gunboats

The issue with that is
Loooooooool torpmeme
Loooooooooooooool
Slightly less so with Noshiro around
But loooooooooooooooooooool


@jagged steppe enty + helena 
Even if I get +1 bonus on every ticket, I can't enter top 100 
Should I give up sandbag/feet dragging and just rush everything for the 90 merit of being top 1000?
What you do is you wait and hope devs remove points from cheaters
Also no reason to rush now in particular
I don't have much hope for that. And rushing when I have time rather than bother devoting time to sandbag.
A victory against one of my hardest opponents yet ^^

until devs show no sign of fixing scores, I'm still sandbagging
because they're 5 matches up from sandbaggers if we didn't lose attempts from maint
They might be more than +5. What if they were getting phantom tickets as rollback?
If they get their ranking renormalized, we keep any bonus we eat from them 
at least that's what happened last time
some people got super high scores due to bonuses, and devs couldn't do anything
100% won't fix anything this season
The reset till you get the full proc and skill fleet
game did a coin flip from 4 out of my 5 matches and made me lose to a low level akaga team

I hate this game
Do you guys think defense fleet really matters at all?
generally not
โ
So those people who make the meme teams arnt really hurtin themselves or whatever?
On the individual scale, no it doesn't matter. As a community if enough people put up strong fleets it can snuff out people who don't have strong fleets. That usually happens later in the season where higher ranked people slowly rise to the top.
but keep in mind defense won't stop anyone who has a viable fleet.
got 3 of the skins from the BD release, and i plan to get the other 3 as they come out and i was thinkin, shit i can make defense team outa this and flex my awesomeness
but then i was like, well maybe i should check and see if that hurts me first

I don't even pay attention to scores anymore. Ignorance is bliss 
for all intents and purposes, this season does not exist 
It's getting worse 
there's 120 points difference between r5 and r1
this is not normal
sandy server, everything is okay
DTS12? More like DST12
Up to rank 9 is super borked
and the few right below rank 9 obviously munched on the top 9 for bonus
I wonder if any of the people on the top of the leaderboards are here
or they just treat this channel like plebs-talk 
Do gun parts drop from boss only?
nice, getting network errors
im kinda surprise they only gave 200 tbh
like the new 8 hour drill comm 
Is it a better rate tho
I'm not
They start at 1pm
& finish at 9pm

I start one early if my comms are shit
cant rank if
- god damn 12h maintenance / rip 5 attempts
- max fleet and replacement ships
is a gap in 200 enough to get bonus ?
or it gives me just 3-4 additional points
i'm not sure that understand how to calculate bonus
past captain rank ur lucky if u get +2. the difference is 35 score for a +1 and that usually is a lot of ranks
for the most part yes is score but rank difference does seem to affect it is some special cases. it's very rare but sometimes even a 35 score difference is not enough for a +1 if the rank difference/density is very low
I care not for scores now, just rushing for merit before servers die. The top 10 are 100 points above the the 20th highest, 300 points above 100th highest. I'm happy with free gold bullin.
u are playing on cursed server

you either overcome it or give up
I'm just curious how the fuck somebody could be over 200 points up right now
Which is why I really hope someone who actually is that far up could explain how they did it.
sometimes rollbacks after using attempts will make it so u keep the score after u used them but u get the attempts back
So I'm assuming they got in on time after the initial maint and got super lucky with a rollback
if they rushed after 1st maint most likely they got rolled back with extra attempts
If you're still aiming for gensui I guess its better to use all of your excersies to try to hit the top rankers 
i've given up on pvp on both servers pretty much. abusers all over the place and in en i lost 5 attempts to 2nd maint
I'm about 20 pts behind current #10 so I could probably do it if I put some effort in
is server dead again? I cant login
sandy is alive
EZclap
yes, it's prob easier to rush at this point
Almost impossible to sandbag my way to top 10 again
I'm just assuming all of the sandbaggers gave up as well
At the very least I'd imagine its incredibly beneficial to get any of the top rankers atm
tbh idc about getting to rushers. whatever my score will be it's gonna be too hard to get top 10 so i just play as usual
are the current points / standings on pvp are a bit high?
did a bug occured on the downtime
some people got extra attempts due to rollbacks
if u use attempts and then get a rollback u keep the score after using them but get the attempts back
oh i see so no sandbaggers on top 10 this season i assume 
i also lost 5 ticks haha , demn maintenance
doesn't help that 2nd maint was past reset and some didn't use all attempts before it
well just gonna rush for gensui for points ( if it will be enough ) 
what is gensui?
top 10 rank jp name. aka admiral of the navy in en

will u play to do builds for next event or u trust my shitty luck?

447 rn


a bit jealous of your having centaur
use ws instead of qe
centaur and formidable are 100% in trend now but as far as i know and see other fleets queen is out of popular meta
So basically dido's buff is not enuf to make qe good
qe is nowhere near as good as ws
ill give that a shot, thanks for the input
i would swap qe for ws dido and london for juneau and yukikaze
you are on sandy?
i gopt a +2 and a +1 this reset at 10/10
av
Aight back. Ws turned a bossfight into roflstomp
What does juneau do I scrapped her
heals backlines
living heal potion
lamb
for slaughter
Thats kinda op but also sad
War never changes
Lmao
ix it tho. she is never used anyway. at least u give her a purpose
Wasnt that a quote from a game or soemthing. Metal gear solid iirc
sort of
mb that shikikan is hard up for equip
people just put random ships on defense. does it matter if they are equipped or not?
I speculated they have main damage weapon equipped and nothing else. Lowers the cp quite a bit
it can be bait for beginners
that fleet is free xp farm
Does xp come from cp or enemy ship lvl
u still cannot kill lvl 120 ships easily even unequipped with underleveled ships
ship levels
Anyway, dont look for sense that isn't there
My oil count lookin good too
i've been avoiding relogin to refresh list
good thing they actually fixed the issues

Ye
Don't relog

Like at all
I'll tell you when I get on
Well if I get on

Rip night comms
still 1:50... hopefully it won't take that long

how is server having issue agian
again
did hundred million peoiple just begin to play azur lane after ep12?
i don't think so
if i have to say is lack of personal due to corona virus but who really knows
so improper maintenance or something like that
guess im losing some night comms X_x
they are all qf anyway 
did al gained popularity or something?
i've been playing since en release too
due to this virus raised my level from 62 to 71 in a week or smth like that
so more people play al because they don't go out as much?
avrora down again? 
i haven't played al since october

I go eat lunch for 30min
came back server still cant login
feelsbad
best game in the world
and got booted out to login screen again
i'll just rush this season
fk this game
losing ticket didn't get any rank/point
what kind of bullshit game is this
nvm got +12
I litterly cannot play the game man
it booted me out again and agian
i wouldn't even try tbh
me neither
Its just avrora. Sandy is fine
welp i just got kicked for trying to do the skin mission
