#

Could I get some input for a new player trying to clear the event before it's up so I can get the auxs/do the crafts based on the dock here:

#

opal scaffold Dec 3, 2022, 10:01 PM

#

did you try T5 yet?

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:01 PM

#

I can sometimes get to the last boss, but it feels like a roulette if I do

#

I'm at T5 trying to clear it

craggy jetty Dec 3, 2022, 10:01 PM

#

get unicorn to max limitbreak and retrofit her

Event fleet advice for a new player (At T5)

#

As for fleet formations:

#

opal scaffold Dec 3, 2022, 10:03 PM

#

what's your fleet 1 doing in T5?

robust widget Dec 3, 2022, 10:03 PM

#

not rly time to lvl uni + they have klaudia as healer

#

but this should clear t5 ye

craggy jetty Dec 3, 2022, 10:03 PM

#

well, youre gonna want to max limitbreak stuff, regardless

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:03 PM

#

I think the ryza fleet can maybe do the last boss, and maybe the elite sirens if I don't screw anything up

#

I definitely want to max limit uni, but I have about 5k gold and 6.6k oil

#

I know I have a little time but not a lot to do it

#

I have enough of the bulins to limit break uni, but I almost definitely think I'm no where near enough time to get the retrofit done

craggy jetty Dec 3, 2022, 10:05 PM

#

just stick with your current fleets, but you need to max limit break them

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:05 PM

#

@opal scaffold mostly I've been playing around a week or two tops.

opal scaffold Dec 3, 2022, 10:05 PM

#

no i mean how much can fleet 1 kill

#

3 non sirens?

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:05 PM

#

Ohhh it's clearing non siren fleets

opal scaffold Dec 3, 2022, 10:05 PM

#

so boss has to kill 3 sirens plus boss?

#

hmm

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:05 PM

#

Maybe trying to get one siren down

craggy jetty Dec 3, 2022, 10:06 PM

#

probably gear issue?

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:06 PM

#

how many bulins and gold bulins do you have?

pennsylvania can be bought from guild shop twice, perhaps

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:06 PM

#

I have 8 elite bulins and 2 prototypes.

#

Gear is def. bad.

opal scaffold Dec 3, 2022, 10:06 PM

#

you need to get rid of tashkent and dido. they are dead ends right now. fortune meta is probably also a dead end

craggy jetty Dec 3, 2022, 10:07 PM

#

i mean, considering you cant even get her to mlb right now, probably

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:08 PM

#

I have a Phoenix + Helena in progress to try and make something not terrible. But I didn't realize how bad off I was with the dido/tash combo

opal scaffold Dec 3, 2022, 10:08 PM

#

the ships are fine. you have no gold bulins

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:08 PM

#

I have two gold bulins available right now

opal scaffold Dec 3, 2022, 10:08 PM

#

so they're stuck at L70 0LB where they are just terrible

#

and your boss fleet needs them

#

or enterprise

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:09 PM

#

I just was afraid to burn those until I knew what made sense to burn them on

opal scaffold Dec 3, 2022, 10:09 PM

#

i know i'm still considering which ship to spend it on.

#

i think probably will have to go with warspite

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:10 PM

#

I can get another enterprise from the medal shop over an illustrious

#

So that's an option there for LB

#

but needing two for MLB means I can either take a pair to 90 which gets me a level advantage at least.

#

Or one to MLB but I also think warspite is what I have to do

#

I've been trying to farm 2-1 to level a low oil fleet for farming 3-4 to get fighters/toolboxes

craggy jetty Dec 3, 2022, 10:12 PM

#

Wotspite

#

2-1 is garbage, just farm 3-2

#

or push worlds as much as possible, try to get to world 9+

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:13 PM

#

I can try pushing worlds. I'm at 5-1 right now

#

But I stopped progressing there because I realized how little time I had to get T5 cleared

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:14 PM

#

are you still at 0% T5?

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:14 PM

#

dusty frigate are you still at 0% T5?

Unfortunately yes.

#

I 3 starred T1-3, and cleared (+1 star) T4

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:18 PM

#

levels are more important than a single piece of gear, so don't farm chapter 2 or 3

#

either farm 4-2 or continue 5-2 and up

#

have you bought the oil from the event shop?

#

T4 also has better exp than 4-2

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:22 PM

#

So best plan right now would be to auto 4-2 or 5-2, maybe manual T4 until I get it to low.

Get both fleets to 80+?

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:23 PM

#

you need to replace some ships

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:23 PM

#

I also have a Phoenix at 56/Helena at 45 I can carry with.

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:23 PM

#

opal scaffold i know i'm still considering which ship to spend it on.

idk how's this going?

#

do you have the guild shop ships available? or have you already bought some since yesterday (friday)

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:24 PM

#

Also a unicorn at 20 I can take up

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:24 PM

#

no time for unicorn i think

#

klaudia is just better than a non retro unicorn

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:24 PM

#

dusty frigate do you have the guild shop ships available? or have you already bought some sinc...

I have 3k tokens, and everything is available right now

#

I used a refresh

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:25 PM

#

have you bought the oil and coins from the event shop?

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:25 PM

#

I have 2/5 Gold and 4/5 Oil left

#

210 clusters available

#

(AFK 10-15 minutes)

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:26 PM

#

so ideally you farm T4 and buy more oil or coins.
and you get 4000 more oil on monday pack

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:26 PM

#

Monday pack?

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:26 PM

#

weekly pack

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:28 PM

#

got it. Okay, so then focus on T4 for now, get it to safe, and auto it as much as possible

#

get levels and limit break all I can

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:28 PM

#

yes, you can buy penn and helena from guild shop to sub for bulin

robust widget Dec 3, 2022, 10:29 PM

#

probably move kala to boss and have phoenix in mob tank, boot out tashkent since shes at cap and probably better use fortune meta FumizukiCross

#

u should be able to mlb penny and phoenix on monday

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:29 PM

#

2 for serri, 2 for lila, 1 dupe + 2 bulin for penn, etc

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:29 PM

#

I know Penn is bad and I was hoping to get the ryza one, but who knwos.

robust widget Dec 3, 2022, 10:29 PM

#

penny is ok for her cost

dusty frigate Dec 3, 2022, 10:30 PM

#

patricia is liek the best gold mob BB but for you she's just another 0LB useless ship

robust widget Dec 3, 2022, 10:30 PM

#

tbh id focus on lvls since its only 4 days else would def reorganize

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:30 PM

#

I have a dupe of lila and serri already.

robust widget Dec 3, 2022, 10:31 PM

#

lb w.e u have dupes of and ure currently using

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:31 PM

#

both of those need two for the MLB, so I can go ahead and do that

#

Those two are done and now AFK a bit

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:35 PM

#

dusty frigate patricia is liek the best gold mob BB but for you she's just another 0LB useless...

Fair, I was thinking longer term since I can’t get her ever again

robust widget Dec 3, 2022, 10:38 PM

#

even if u get em its important to farm their gears or they will underperform and u only got like 4 days left so u gotta work with what u have

wise laurel Dec 3, 2022, 10:39 PM

#

True. The gear for what I have now is the goal

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:13 AM

#

dusty frigate 2 for serri, 2 for lila, 1 dupe + 2 bulin for penn, etc

and making sure I recall:

Take Serri/Lila to MLB (Done)

Burn both proto bulins on warspite, take her MLB

Fortune META to mob tank

Add phoenix to mob team, remove takh, keep Dido?

grind mob team and boss team to 90

check if I can clear T5?

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:15 AM

#

whats your enterprise gear

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:17 AM

#

dusty frigate whats your enterprise gear

Enterprise and Warspite (I figured that may be the follow up)

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:18 AM

#

i think if you use 3 gold bulins on enterprise she can be boss dps

#

but

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:19 AM

#

Yeah, I got her today post auto-class burn

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:19 AM

#

can you buy gold bulins from medal shop?

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:19 AM

#

I haven't bought any yet, so probably

#

Yeah, I can get two

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:20 AM

#

you have medals

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:21 AM

#

Only 10 right now. I probably have plenty of bad ships I can retire though

#

FWIW

#

(Also I really appreciate the advice/input. I know this is a hassle. I only recognized the decent tier lists/advice on what to do a few days ago. So I wasted a lot on this account.)

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:26 AM

#

as many mob battles as possible:
Penn Warspite Akagi-chan Phoenix (Dido/Helena) Portland

remaining mobs and boss:
Enterprise Klaudia Serri Kala Reisa Lila

#

i'm just going to assume you don't need a BB in the second fleet. you can manual if there are suicide boats anyways

#

so limit break Enterprise with 3 gold bulins

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:28 AM

#

dusty frigate as many mob battles as possible: Penn Warspite Akagi-chan Phoenix (Dido/Helena)...

This all makes a lot of sense. Targeting base level 80 on everyone min before I think about trying T5 again to avoid wasting time/oil, I assume. And as close as possible to 90.

Farm T4 to get oil/gold in the mean time, once tapped out, move to 4-2? Or some other location?

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:28 AM

#

level 90 for the atelier fleet is a good goal to aim for,
level 80 for the other fleet,

you can even try T5 earlier than that. If you fail, you don't lose much because the ships still gained exp from the battles. If you succeed three times, then it's huge because you can go to TH1 which might be easier than T5

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:29 AM

#

TH1 is the objective/any of the TH stuff since my target is getting the aux gear on the ryza team to free gear to other ships/have their BIS for the rest of the game

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:29 AM

#

T4 to T5 to TH1 to the other THs, don't touch campaign

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:29 AM

#

Ah okay. That works.

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:30 AM

#

TH1 is just a temporary stop to farm a few more levels to make the other THs easier. You need all THs to craft stuff

#

you can even try T5 earlier than that. If you fail, you don't lose much because the ships still gained exp from the battles.

and trying T5 early isn't really a waste

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:31 AM

#

Ahh okay. I was worried I'd be dumping fuel into nothing/retreating loses my drop progress. but keeping the exp is all I really care about

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:31 AM

#

wise laurel I can sometimes get to the last boss, but it feels like a roulette if I do

just judge for yourself when you might be ready. Seems like you've managed to reach the boss spawn (with almost dead ships?)

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:31 AM

#

Yeah, I made it to the boss spawn once, and timed out due to missing ammo

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:31 AM

#

have you opened all purple and gold gear boxes?

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:31 AM

#

So I think theoretically if I do well, I can maybe make it work. I killed the boss once, then it respawned and I got it to x25

#

All boxes are opened and I'm crafting all boxes to purple before I touch them

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:34 AM

#

when you get the second boss phase down to x20 health, you have a few seconds to pass a damage check. If you fail, all of your ships take like 2000 damage

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:34 AM

#

That's the thing that locks you in place and hits right? I failed that once

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:34 AM

#

so you would save like 2 airstrikes, use warspite or a third airstrike to get it down to 20x, then burst it

#

it's a black hole, not lasers

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:34 AM

#

That's when I'd probably dump all of Enterprise at it

#

oh okay

#

Lasers is what I thought of.

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 12:35 AM

#

for lasers just try to kill some of the four turrets quickly

#

or quit the battle and retry

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 12:36 AM

#

i'm going to manual it, so I'll try to have torps or something around for it

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 6:15 AM

#

dusty frigate for lasers just try to kill some of the four turrets quickly

Managed to already get my first clear. Enterprise basically carries everything on her shoulders. It’s wild.

I’m wondering if she handles all the elites now, if it’s going to be even easier

#

Thank you so much for all the the advice/feedback.

dusty frigate Dec 4, 2022, 6:15 AM

#

Remember to skill up enterprise

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 6:16 AM

#

Yeah, she will get most of my training tomorrow when my instant training ticks over

wise laurel Dec 4, 2022, 5:31 PM

#

And a final follow up post this morning:
Blew away the last boss a few more times and I'm finally farming the TH stages to get the gathering gear to see if I can pull off as much of the event as I can.

I got Lucky E to I think Level 8, and holy shit, she blows away bosses. I get why she's in the boss fleet, and I get why that's the only place she makes sense. Nothing survives her most of the time.
