Might have to avoid pvp for now and focus on getting Monarch and get my HMS ships fully upgraded.
well , imagine build china wall on amagi to conquer server
time to become food. going to move til I get AotN 
I moved. got 2 more matches left but it's gonna be a +9 and possible +8
just pvp and work on HMS ships at the same time ๐
PvP xp goes to Research right?
I hoped too much. 
Heh, I see Caylm at #4 on Avrora. Don't tell me you still have tickets left.
Not even for... +10 merit? 
@crisp skiff imo you cant get much better than this
some good food for my torps
i can see the tears from that nanoda 

If only I have that T0 Main gun which I don't have
big waste to use it on ykkz
its not, the fire rate is great for her skill
esp when you only have 2
if you want fire rate you slap 76mm
if you want AA you go 100mm
only those two no other guns are acceptable
The Rainbow torps is not good on Yuki
I've gived the rainbow torps on my Bel
The rainbow torps are great, just the first salvo melts

Also I really don't have the high performance fire control radar

cv trash tier?
depends which cv are we talking about
make cv hms corp and kill every fleet without hiryuu

better see how yuki die with 6k hp after 2torps...
thats a free win
i wish
free win 
heacy cruisers are the worst in PvP

you spelled destroyers wrong
๐ฅฑ shouldn't discuss with lobobs
That kinda makes Ibuki sad
oh man he is the one who say rudder+oxy torp as ykkz BiS, nvm then 
also 138.6mm on yuki 
I only hear lowbob cries.
Sad you cant direct pvp with people to show them whats really good.
GvG needs to come

u not understand , its carry yuki 
do you mean make ykkz into dps god @ripe latch 
if he hate CA on pvp , i'm can put 6 boilers and found him 
@upper sparrow try all variants , but she dps not really good
even with stag
eh, who cares, I hit rank 1 either way.
I'm out. Too much stupidity here.

rank 1 as food 
food found food?
if youre not willing to listen, not my loss 
we love u nozo fan boy, ur rank 1 is mean food for us 
let food be food for eternity, dont tell him 

ok rank 1, we are plebs compared to u 
LOL
Form giant Megazord!


food run out 
i'll take a break too when this bitch west virginia finally drops
you got problems with nimi? 
yukikaze is the true starter
dirty laffey user
not using javelin 
easy way - clear 3-1 / 4-4 , get hellcat and divebomber , put on sara and kill anyone 
but get enty so lucky

so im missing yuki, what pvp vanguard can i go for? i have belfap and juneau
can we see what you have as options?
um it is the new server... so nothing except the 2 above mentioned, and lets say portland and jabulin.
Whatever kills your opponents. They should be equally weak.
Portland will probably be a decent stopgap and as a bonus you can use her on campaign.
If you are masochistic, you can use Eldredge...
Belfast will eventuality be replaced too. You can try to build up a torpedo fleet once you unlock Ayanami (eventually Jintsu).
So if I hit the wifi button on my phone while I'm about to lose in a exercise match will it not count as a lost?
you can also pause and leave
kk
porty bel and yuki 
It worked tysm
gif how now pvp work on amagi
https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/497012141120028673.gif?v=1
nvm it started to work
Pvp on Amagi server 
if you're starting in Amagi server, PvP is all about ship levels for many weeks
idc if you have a better fleet, I have 20 more levels, ez win
๐
alternatively
you're 20 levels down?
glhf
you might even have trouble with ungeared enemies if you're 20 levels down, lol
just play 
Don't stop playing until you're 
alternatively
you're 20 levels down?
glhf
you might even have trouble with ungeared enemies if you're 20 levels down, lol
@elder crane not trouble but hard
58 lvl vs 75

ppl have akagi from 10 runs
u try 30 - nothing

okay then
now moving on to my avrora account, is it worth exchanging for F4U in core data shop?
its a gold one.
someone buy oil to rush lvl 
lmfaooo
the key to conquer amagi server
-just play
-just get lucky on build ship
VF-17 best fighter in PvP in general
but im using akaga
in PvP, it's between that and reppu
why would you want them to have the same planes in particular 
umm ive just heard rumors that having the same speed helps
looks like im mistaken
aight then ill grab the plane
they don't even have the same slot effs, which might make you want to gear them diff on planes
farm f4u/bf109 / barracuda / helldiver
next is torp bomber
is that akagi on amagi server 
what are the good ones.
yep
VF-17 Akagi and Reppu Kaga make sense based on what their effs are
since bomb damage is affected by effs but not suicide
ofc both same plane makes sense too depending on what you want
just the other way around, well, you better have a good reason to do that 
nah not akagi on amagi xD
its akagi on avrora
ill get akagi on amagi
trust me
i will.
i dont care how long it takes
good luck then 
wait bluerendar
both cuda, both ryuus, or 818 Akagi and Ryuu Kaga would be my selection
where my yuki food 
oh
ya 818 and ryuusei
is ryuusei farmable in visitors died in red
is it in war archive
Also to note Akaga were basically
its better than hellcat right
Brainded atm
Reppu burst AA better tbh
Besides
ohh
We got Pirates
the issue is that the fast flight speed is actively counterproductive in PvE
Nah, WaSD meta for sure I think, until PRs come online
This assuming gonna go on mirror
if nothing good reruns before then, it'll be HMS > USN but with both in meta, probably
Ahh well WASDNC/WASDE
new server?
other one will be Hood/Cent/QE HMS
Just Amagi server being so 2018
with eventually Monarch over Hood, I think
Brings back memories smhw
basically CN meta pre-Nagato I would think
Akaga was shit without Nagato/Amagi
Akaga was great when the only counter was Enty
it was, like, not unusable, but like
ill use akaga and wait for nugget to come
it's basically the level of Nakaga right now
sad
^
which is just 
cri
but umm whats a good middle
with akaga
in the new server currently
il farm for them im pretty sure
Nothing
eh..
btw
even without WaSD
base HMS > base AKaga
Unless
Biggest ship you got
U want Hakaga
that's QE Hood Warspite (no retro)
hood?
Why not
hiryuu for akaga corp...
Hood or Enty basically, and neither are that good in that setup
Better go on HMS
what about vanguard
Tbh
meh
That's the one wildcard I would say
VG remains the same
?
Hiryuu retrofit
ohhhh
Yuki Jun XX
Ye
I would be deadass surprised if there was a Hiryu retro in Amagi right now
i see...
again, levels > all for now
mhmm
especially if it's on a pretty good ship
Also centaur too
Cent is like, glhf
Long lasting ones
0.6% for her, I think?
Ye
ew
so yeah, hf
But if u got her anyway
my friend pulled cent and atago in their first week of playing
one day ill chop down their hand and use it for building
Kill him now
but cent needs gold planes , now 2bb > any cv corp
Yep, if you got Cent, go Hood/QE/Cent for sure imo
the problem with Akaga is that you give yourself like a 2-3 week handicap
Pirates+Reppu on her
so the VG um
cause that's how long it takes to farm them 
Torp gonna be Ryusei
Why not
and staying in 3-4 that long will mean you're wayy behind on levels
Unless u want crash dmg but
Is that the point with Centaur on non FC comp?

average is 200 runs
so glhf
it okay
took me 10 days
not donator
46 lvl

Yuki/Jun/Belfap
yep, that's also why I think Cent is bait
Or
better to pull light for Ykkz
Anything yuki/jun
Her lumbering tatas kinda derp atm
hmm
Nimi, perhaps? But kinda slow too
Rendar, handle this one okies xD
Port is fine cause PvE leveling basically 
which is why Jun might be a bit questionable
is leveling her hard?
Jun isn't too bad tbh
but the low HP multiplier at low levels isn't going to do her any favors
the issue is that the fast flight speed is actively counterproductive in PvE
wdym? @elder crane
faster flight speed = reaches end of screen faster = less time to shoot at planes
which doesn't matter in PvP, where being shot at less matters more (and baiting AA)
in PvE though, 
is that so? 
which also means avgas is super pepega in PvE if you need plane AA
I use reppuu in PvE when AA doesn't matter
Although they'll probably be replaced by VF-17s as I get more
i wonder what would happen if u used namaryuu for 13-4 
If anyone has the oil and access to 13-4 feel free to test that out
Probably dies to planes is my guess
i wanna test it out if when i get namagi
Closest thing we got for that
Is Nakaga on 13-4 mob
Even then its basically suicide
On boss perhaps
But someone tested it on safe, and I personally never used that on lethal so

Since I triforced my way through 13 4 lethal with Double E cent
team burning level progress is going well
chappy 105, kirishima 115, bremington 100, gascan u 100 

wish we had more armor plating
Should I use both hiryuu and soryuu in PvP team or only hiryuu? (playing on Amagi)
you can use both right now i guess
I have Hood and saratoga
then again Washington + South Dakota + Hiryuu/Enterprise would be the most common main ships once people can get hands on south dakota imo
Ok thanks for the answer ๐
Almost 3 min pvp
ah yes

Almost 3 min pvp
obviously you haven't pvped in amagi
why are your pvps taking that long ๐
i have no equips and people running unicorn 
i can't get anything good out of tech boxes
then grind on maps 
i have 4 oil when i got akagi yesterday
oh sh
i guess it's time 
im skipping the bunnies and foxes and just trying to pull enterprise off special build
i've been pulling from heavy only so i have no CVs
i'd like it within 3 or 4 days from now
if it weren't for akagi drop i can't even do 1-4 hard lol

i'm gathering retrofit blueprints from 2-1 for laffey kai
You guys make a new account in amagi server? 
my only account on EN
i have 3 accounts now on EN

i'm gathering retrofit blueprints from 2-1 for laffey kai
port kai > laffey kai don't @ me

to pvp? 
Yes
port kai tanks for so long its great

rushing to 6-4
though i would like a ship to replace my tai yuan in my mob fleet
What is FW?
๐
I grinded 3-2 all day yesterday finally got hiryuu so now I'm leveling her up to go in my mob fleet
very nice
when u buy coubs and more from akashi shop 
ehh i would save cubes on amagi for ce
no guarantee its coming anytime soon tho
im pretty damn sure its next event or sometime following that
I saw portland mentioned again 

Huh. Donald Trump (Avrora) is way too lucky with their +1s. I swear I was +6 them last weekend, but I'm now I'm probably -8.
Just level them up and retro Warspite right?

but u have sword to finish retro?
Yep
Take out Baltimore for Juneau
Don't have Juneau

Who could I temporarily replace Juneau with?
just rush 7-2/8-4 .6-3 , easy to take
how do u not have juneau 
nobody understands the value of juneau jesus until they scrapped a bunch
but getting one shouldn't be too hard
her heal on death is too good
You can try to get a tank to replace Jesus, but might as well go all in on torpedoes at that point. (And don't forget the pearl)
@sour oasis So could I use Eugen in Jesus's stead?
Nope
Just double down on offense
I only got Ryuhou and Suruga from that event
When you lack defense, just add more offense.
Nope
Though if they're going to grind, Juneau should be easier to get...
^^^
I'm low level
What how 
Like 60-70

And they're all near level 80
Lemme check
When I was level 60, most my ships were level 70.

That S-rank ๐ฒ 
im legit like...
so early to come pvp
Eh?
btw check ur lab
Are you on Amagi server?
@sour oasis Sandy
Worth an ask 
ahh, my server then
And I don't have a single PR yet
get ibuki for twerpmemes 
Yeah. You just lose @ PvP until you get a good team of level 115
I've been working on Saint Louis for months. On the 2000000 exp
oh no, not saint 
PvP for you is just a source of merit and exp
About half way done with that. Just have to finish that and then I have Saint.
I like Saint. She's pretty good at EX events.
pvp its just best way to get 120lvl ships
i mean there's nothing wrong with starting pvp at lower lvs
Nothing wrong at all. I encourage it. Just don't expect many wins.
^^^
i just observed different comps and stuff
i spend most of my time thinking of how to survive owari da with my twerpmeme vg 
PvP is a great place to get XP (which you get even while losing)
5 min to get some food
I just took Enty on the chin until I had one of my own. Then it came down to a coin flip at the end.
I should be around rank 200 I'm guessing.
juneau and enty best way to 500 rank
It might be Avrora is Hell, but that only took me to 1000.
๐ฐ ๐
I made some progress retroing Warspite. Won't be able to finish due to purple books and level though.
How TF does PvP 4 work. I know Famine wasn't in my list when I played last. Does it re-randomize upon 6h window?
you need purple books for ws retro? 
it's weird sometimes. your list might change overnight
dont think it happened to me before (atleast when i pay attention like after gensui rush)
What if you played a PvP match/refreshed your list in your sleep 
I almost caught up... But I lost a match and can't find a +10 
brainded meta 
what weird pvp meta is Amagi server now?
they got like Washington, South Dakota, Enterprise, Hood, Warspite, Kaga, Akagi thats it?
oh and Centaur
vanguard Juneau, Yukikaze, Belfast
well in theory they can have those ships...
but my 100 pulls tell me otherwise
jk
didn't pull 100 times but still quite a lot
literally got nothing except a clevebro

if u put hiryuu kai u cannot lose match
What if they put Hiryu Kai
they u put warkai 
What if they put Warkai. When it comes down to it, it gets hard to mirror ๐
then u put dev30 fdg 
I've seen 4-star 120 FdG with rings already and am afraid.
then whip out ur dev30 azuma 

You might as well say ๐ธ
๐ pay 2 win
this is exactly why akashi is the most overpowered ship in the entire game

dev30 azuma :๐ 
what do you mean? those under dev20 azumas are superior
why else is there so many more around

just take away resetting and no bonus points
watch our winrates tank
if someone catches me next reset, I can move a full 10 for you
my max score looks like 2575 so far
Looks like a 2580~ for me 
Look at these 2550+ tryhards 
I barely check pvp now and yet I still get 2570+ 
I just did my usual "lol missed 6 matches kek" 

given that killed, it's obviously vs low lv
Spitesword when 
Azuma ๐
I could never wait until I collect full bp lol
meanwhile me with 160 azuma bps 

d30 DRs need more BPs than f5 PR1s 
How impactful is sandbagging in the very beginning of the season vs a day or two in? Tried doing it for the first time 2 weeks ago and it seemed like I just got people who didn't pvp when I did one attempt and waited at reset
not a huge difference. sometimes at the start you just get unlucky. if you are sandbagging all season, scores tend to equalize whether or not your had a good start or not.
Gotcha
low level ships 

bruh
today
i legit got 5 monarch face projects in a row with only 1 G-412 in between

A 2600+ 
2 mins more 

Whelp 6th on Washy for me
2600+


2.6k club o/
Sitting up there with famine this season 
Third on Amagi, lost 2 battles or I would have had first
I got paired against 3 proper torp memes
what's meta on Amagi now?
And you said you're gonna be easy to beat 


No meta yet, mostly leveling squads
Was one of the proper torp memes me?

@shy hazel look i made it are you proud of me 
@ashen lion updated leaderboard 

Those scores 
The avrora scores are weirder this season. The people I expected to get 2595+ didn't
And hoo got 2600+
im bugged 
Did you try relaunching app?
sandy never pass than 2590+ 
i think holykov still had a match left. I am not sure if he managed to make it last second or not but I saw him moving last second, I loaded the leaderboard T minus 5 seconds before reset. If he did have a match left and managed to make it, he would have taken r1 regardless a +8 or +9
F for Holykov
lol
rip. He totally had that.
Stalled into next season 


I kind of feel bad for him lol.

If I saw that I was gonna go over, i'd just take the loss & quit out
I wonder what stalled the guy.
just rush 30min before end n eat all +9 
Damn. If it wasnt final reset. You could have tested against proper torp meme.
Since you got me twice
Have yet to see one myself
I only ever see them in the final 10 mins
I'm still missing fate5 buki so not exactly maxed yet
So what is sandbagging?
waiting til your opponents play their matches before attacking them. You get extra points doing that.
No enty? 
GG on second place Hooloo 
Sooo who won?
Unless Famine sleep on some matches. I don't expect anything less of him 
flexin 
uhh we're supposed to have 10 attempts rn right... ?
wtaf...

cant win dat
i want nanoda 
Nah, Juno is J-class, Juneau is Atlanta-class like 

For most of my PvP fights, Juneau is usually the last surviving vanguard stupid doesn't even know when to die
well that wasn't worth it. I moved on a +32 and now my list is dead
would have been better waiting for that one guy to possibly move more
but hard to predict day 1


on the other hand. a 118 dev20 azuma does pretty okay
on offense at least
fought famine's dev25 last night and it wasnt deleted

158 start I guess this means that I'm actually sandbagging this season
almost like I never sandbagged at all 
i tries starting the same way in both servers and in en got 156 while jp 141... that's fun
So many new players, this list is all luck (or massive database searching)
I'm at 139 after 5 
i got 3 bonuses early and was waiting for 4th to move again another 5 but in jp never happenes so rip bonuses while en happened so i got +34 and +29 last 2 attempts
also half awake didn't notice lvl 69 leftmost opponent. using refreshes after reset rip....
Am I the only one who likes to try to solo someone's fleet with a vanguard ship
Like I solo'd this fleet with just Roon
well soloing 120 fleets doesn't work so i don't think people try that
I know but if a lower level fleet ever pops up
Sometimes it's sorta fun
Especially when the new season starts and every option is weak
You might as well
as a sandbagger u just look at how much they moved not the fleet strength
132 at start same like alwys 

What
lvl 81 people actually moving

how am i even supposed to see my bonus 
u do math based on base score to see bonuses
what's the base score -_-
there is a chart in pins
156 is like my best start
huh so with "max sandbagging" everyone's supposed to be at 139 rn???
according to pins
that chart is weird
lol
I use my own recorded scores
what a gaymer
but if you want reference to where you should be when sandbagging. here's mines
pretty reasonable seeing as it was one of my recorded seasons
i had once a 281 2nd reset... never again, but usually even with lower scores i end up with ~1059 into captain
sounds like a pretty good 2nd reset
usually I only get 2 bonuses
I feel that pvp score reference pinned should be removed. the scores don't really reflect normal scores
149->281... as many bonuses in 2nd reset as 1st
the pinned chart feels more like a rusher chart then a sandbagger one
plus it does have some issues like +1 at 2570 
well famine is beyond max sandbagging anyways
I'm more questioning the max sandbagging. I want to play in the server where it's possible to get +1 every single match
not only that but if u aren't at 10/10 u can't possibly get more then 2 +1 after captain
@lime rivet can help us unpin the sandbagging chart and replace with cay's chart instead?

owo thanks
again if u are at 5/10 u cannot get more then +2 per reset without missing attempts because technically speaking people after u use 2 attempts can only be 30pts ahead
or less
that is true, normally anything above +1 is impossible
only people that can give you +2 is sandbaggers
i meant 2 +1
but you're asking sandbaggers to stop sandbagging
i said ill stop sandbagging but here i am again..
aiming for r1 this time 
u got rank 2 last season why stop?
you stop when Famine is defeated
did u refresh for bonuses? or just save them

when i rushed really early wasted my refreshes to avoid a +9 at 3/10 and ended up with a +8 lol
Opponents aren't moving, maybe I don't have to sandbag after all 
i would push from time to time like save 2-3m per attempt. if u get something fast u wait for next attempt
did u check opponent levels? i keep landing on some weird low level lists
I like between 2-3 min per attempts left
space them out or slow down if it's an easy match
imagine using namaryuu 
wait nvm i can't cuz no namagi...
hello darkness my old friend

i ended up using namaryuu against ws teams and namagi ws against namaryuu
namaryuu mirror is cancer
why else do I use WSkai to snipe Hiryuu early? I lost twice last season because of her
i only reset twice ever with amagi ws fdg. once vs a namaryuu and another vs namagi fdg after opponent nagato barraged 3 times in a row
that and maybe my nagato said no barrages while their's procced twice 
amagi suruga fdg
that's ur alternative without nagato
that's a fun comp to fight where u cannot kill stuff with ws
i'm thinking about using suruga vs ws instead of hiryuu
dev 25 is good enough for a stalling fdg
stella didn't level suruga either tho. lvl 99
mines just dev19 
wow as bad as mine on stella acc
Early bonuses also mean less compared to the last 3 days from my experience
we'll have nagato rerun first before i have fdg/suruga ready at this point
Considering people can gain on a +10 point lead due to match luck
it's not hard to level a bb
early bonuses tend to kind of even out around when u enter captain rank. i seem to always end up within like 2-3 pts every time even when i have a 14pts behind start
Yeah
I usually always end up 1050-1060
Think my best was 1068 on a season I ended up getting stalled on due to being so far ahead I had to wait till last min to not eat a -9

-1 better then -10
what is the strategy to get top10/100? I always win left most and I fight 5 after reset and 10 before reset. Should I refresh until I find high rank opponents?
if u want to sandbag u have to wait for people to move before attacking
what do you mean move?
attack
but then again i'd assume all the top players would do that
so 10 mins before reset?
depends on comp and how much u have to reset
if u never reset 10min is enough for 5 attempts without problems
is there a best time to fight? I should be fighting 5 before server reset? then I do 10 after the 2nd exercise refresh?
again if u want bonuses u have to wait for opponents to use their attempts before u attack. that means checking ur list every now and then to see if people actually moved. if u have to go to bed and miss an entire reset just go down to 5/10 before going to bed
your list does not update ranks until you relog
~~ relog simulator ~~
but when people actually move can be immediately or could be hours after reset
so is it better to keep 10 exercises before server reset?
so i should never leave my exercises at 0/10?
correct. that increases the chance of people moving ahead of you. 5/10 is where you want to stop
unless u completely miss 2 resets in a row never go to 0/10
usually stay at 5 so you dont have to force at the last moment w/10 attempts
oh ok great i have been doing 0/10
so the best way would be to do 5 before they give exercise?
so before the 15th maintenance go 0/10
it's still day 1. you can start now and get a higher rank than you would rushing
day 1 should i be doing 0/10 or 5/10?
5/10 always
tomorrow go 0/10 becayse who knows servers are gonna die again
for like 18h
ok thx didnt know there was a strat called sandbagging
or until you hit Admiral of the Navy and decide to stop
Only rushers and food go 0/10
me neither, am also new here.
what are rushers?
1st reset is about how u want to do it. i usually go down to 1-2/10 because i get early bonuses out of rushers
people who use all their matches ASAP.
rushers use all attempts and go for high ranks right off the bat, i assume
yes, they get a temporary satisfaction of early high ranks
what bonus from rushers?
not much
only bonus is being high rank because others havent used their attempts yet
but youre going to lose it at the end of the timer
and possibly wont be able to catch up due to others bonus for sbagging
bonus points are added based on the difference between your score and their's.
how does the game count merit? this guy in my server (1st) is 355 and im only 340 but i win all my matches?
Because hes been sandbagging
