Purvesh W14

[keen rose]

ok @ripe radish

[ripe radish]

Hiii

[keen rose]

Post fleets first

then post dock, sorted by rarity from all URs through all SRs, filtered by main fleet then vanguard

[crystal anvil]

Cad here helped me clear w14, you’re in good hands

[ripe radish]

Mob fleet : FDG (Flagship), Aquila, Unicorn Retrofit + Azuma(back), Shimakaze(mid), Anchorage(Frontmost)

[mossy coyote]

that's slow...

[keen rose]

slow doesnt matter shit

slow is fine

[crystal anvil]

Is Azuma really worth running?

[keen rose]

fast travels farther into movement barrier and rams chibis more

Azuma is still a UR CB

I do not think she is very worth running as mob off tank

[crystal anvil]

Fair

[ripe radish]

i was using kronstadt before but it was slow with her so i switched to Azuma

[keen rose]

kron is stronger than azuma

but that aside

[crystal anvil]

Could always grab the beaver tag

[keen rose]

could you post pictures for your dock

[ripe radish]

ok

[keen rose]

speed on mob vanguard is whatever

it doesnt matter

too fast is a worse threshold

[mossy coyote]

kron may be more worth to run in the boss fleet. she has cross fleet capabilities

[ripe radish]

i dont have subs geared

[keen rose]

that's ok

[crystal anvil]

Also, learning how to manual properly is good practice for w14

[mossy coyote]

level Monarch it's a joke joke...so you dont have yuudachi?

[keen rose]

rarity sort and main/vang filter gone 😔

[ripe radish]

nope i tried farming her but she never appeared

[keen rose]

sad

anyways

[mossy coyote]

i know the feel. took me 8 months of grinding for my 1st yuudachi...

[crystal anvil]

Fred, Aquila, unikai is a good mob back line, no?

[keen rose]

FdG Aquila Uni Kronshtadt Sandy Rikka
Hakuryuu Musashi Ulrich, Agir Jeanne Shima

something like so

[crystal anvil]

No shinano in boss?

[keen rose]

it's an option

haku wears tenrai better, and i think tenrai is stronger than wyvern

[crystal anvil]

That’s very true

I don’t have ulrich, idk how she is as a bosser

[keen rose]

fine with musashi, wouldnt be otherwise

[ripe radish]

so Hakuryuu is the flagship here?

[keen rose]

i suppose i should gear these ships

Haku flag, yeah

cos BBs dont auto focus flagship

[ripe radish]

ok ok

[keen rose]

and BBs need to intercept top and bottom rammers

[crystal anvil]

You’ll need some strong asw gear for your mob

[mossy coyote]

i used Ulrich for mobs. being side with HE gun. she fired like every 10 seconds

[keen rose]

with who else? i dont recommend it as standard

[mossy coyote]

true, do you have the hedgehog?

[crystal anvil]

Prob put asw avengers on uni

[ripe radish]

should i show my gears?

[keen rose]

no

I will post gears

and u say if u dont have the right stuff

[mossy coyote]

with double CVs. perseus and...i think dmg aquila

it worked

[crystal anvil]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[ripe radish]

yes i do have hedgehog i was using that on shimakaze

[crystal anvil]

You’ll want the hedgehog in your mob

I guess on Sandy?

[mossy coyote]

shima was in his mob

[crystal anvil]

I know, I’m just clarifying

[mossy coyote]

that's why i like yuudachi. i used poi as my main tank

[keen rose]

hm

[mossy coyote]

in mobxD

[crystal anvil]

I used jervis

[keen rose]

im about to post gear loadout

[crystal anvil]

The hell was going on in your mob fleet, shadow? Lmao

[ripe radish]

ok

also i heard that 14-4 is easier than 14-3?

is that true?

[mossy coyote]

i mean, i used yuudachi (tank) kitakaze(mid) and sandy (rear) with aquila dmg(flag) and perseus Ulrich side.

[keen rose]

14-4 mobs are called easier

14-4 boss is alot harder than 14-3 boss

[crystal anvil]

Is 14-3 boss the twin DDs?

[keen rose]

it's DDs

[crystal anvil]

14-4 is myokou with a fuckload of health and bbs spawning and shit, it’s rough

[ripe radish]

im scared

[crystal anvil]

You’re getting a good loadout, you’ll be okay

Especially if you’re good at manual

[keen rose]

@ripe radish W14 Fleets

[ripe radish]

I suck at manual but I'll try my best XD

[keen rose]

i think that jeanne ancho is safer than jeanne shima

i also dont think that you need to manual

[crystal anvil]

You don’t need to, but it helps

If you’re good at it

[ripe radish]

im dumb dumb when it comes to manual, i'll just run straight into a stray torpedo or something

or forget to dodge laser

[keen rose]

are you missing anything in that picture, purvesh

[crystal anvil]

Naval camo on ancho, really?

[keen rose]

just in case no event limited eva auxes

[crystal anvil]

It’s a better option than toolbox? That’s what I was thinking

[keen rose]

oh, probably

[crystal anvil]

What about VH armor for agir? Is that not a meta thing?

[ripe radish]

maybe the paintbrush thingy and unicorn aux plane thingy

[keen rose]

no, cos agir is already heavy armor

[crystal anvil]

Oh, derp

[keen rose]

what paint brush

Avenger is craftable in Eagle gear lab

and it's high value

[ripe radish]

should i just get the avenger from core data instead

[keen rose]

no

[crystal anvil]

No no

[keen rose]

avenger gear lab is cheap

[crystal anvil]

Craft that instead

[ripe radish]

ok ok

[crystal anvil]

Fire extinguisher for musa?

[keen rose]

cos musa is probably tanking everything

[crystal anvil]

I’m surprised that blue gear is even a viable choice lol

[keen rose]

learning more things

[crystal anvil]

Yessir

[keen rose]

once again, it's not about rarity

cos FE is very defensive

dont need to recommend it very often

[crystal anvil]

Well yeah

Idk, I would just think that either vh armor or toolbox would be better

[mossy coyote]

also, flame extinguisher is one of the best items

[crystal anvil]

I didn’t realize fire was such a big deal

[ripe radish]

I'm using this on FDG is it fine?

[mossy coyote]

sure it's niche, but also very good to not burn "all day"

[keen rose]

fdg needs to kill singletarget high hp rammer boats

need low spread high dmg gun

the russian gun from last event is good enough

this is gud

[mossy coyote]

also, it's surprising, 0 DDs

[keen rose]

sandy and rikka have high asw to make it up

[crystal anvil]

He doesn’t really have any strong dds besides shima

[keen rose]

suzutsuki is there and strong

i just didnt think he needed to raise suzut

[crystal anvil]

Right, I meant “strong dds at level”

[ripe radish]

i dont have the sandy main gun either

im using this currently

[keen rose]

all suffice

prefer normal/HE in W14's case

over 128

[keen rose]

is this ok

[ripe radish]

i dont have triple 152 not even a single one

[keen rose]

hmm

they're in BP form

can you craft any there

having good BB secondaries is pretty significant

[ripe radish]

i can craft 1 only

[keen rose]

then give to Fdg

[ripe radish]

do have these and i've equipped them on the BBs

so thats fine right?

[keen rose]

anything else to accomodate?

[keen rose]

This is best

[ripe radish]

oh no

i should've farmed the event XD

[keen rose]

152 is just a sidegrade

I recommended it cos it doesnt use gearlab materials

and you might have had extra

[ripe radish]

i have a lot of gearlab mats

its just im short on coins right now

[keen rose]

ok, then 155kai is about BiS

just sit in W12-13 while bringing gear up to speed

[ripe radish]

i dont have anchorage main gun

im using this right now

[keen rose]

gud

[ripe radish]

gg

i've equipped all the gears now, but my jeanne isnt high level and max LB yet so i'll farm some coins and i'll give you the update

[keen rose]

alrighty

only jeanne's shield skill is important

her burning skill is 🚮 value

[ripe radish]

i've leveled her skils it's just I've never leveled her and LB her

[keen rose]

o ok

[ripe radish]

thank you so much

i was just using whatever gears i had from before XD

this fleet will work for 14-4 too right?

[keen rose]

ye

[ripe radish]

nice gg

[keen rose]

i actually had 14-4 more in mind

[ripe radish]

lets gooooooooooooooooooo gamers

[keen rose]

musashi prob swaps to triple 410 for 14-4

[mossy coyote]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Triple_410mm_(10th_Year_Type_Prototype)

[ripe radish]

so i should change?

[keen rose]

for 14-4

I dont think you should for 14-3

[ripe radish]

ok ok

[ripe radish]

I cleared it just now

but I can't 3 star it

the fleet comp and gear worked really great

but idk sometimes there's like a suicide boat that just gets to backline and they start dying

[crystal anvil]

If it’s too much, you can clear it enough times for the damage reduction

[ripe radish]

oh?

i thought i had to clear it 3 stars then the damage reduction starts to take effect

nice thats good news

i was worried XD

[keen rose]

hmmm

lethal 3* is very special

a couple choices are kazagumo, hammann2, and gloucester

potter works i guess

but it's a bit to slot

[keen rose]

else you can just do this ya

[keen rose]

yeah being revealed is a core problem for 14

[keen rose]

auto or manual?

[ripe radish]

half manual half auto XD

[keen rose]

ehh

well ok

for boss?

or did you just manual some mob nodes

[ripe radish]

boss i had no issue

[keen rose]

i see

[ripe radish]

except shima died

[keen rose]

oh you're still using shima?

agir shima ancho?

[ripe radish]

oh no i forgot to add anchorage instead of shima

im so dumb

[keen rose]

mmm, well agir jda shima is also very strong

i just think it's a little less consistent on lethal

[ripe radish]

the thing is before fighting boss

while travelling my boss fleet encounter ambush

[keen rose]

what's your recon value?

[ripe radish]

and vanguard lost like 20-30% HP

[keen rose]

i was worried about your recon

[keen rose]

do you have an extra rudder for sandy

[ripe radish]

with anchorage is still same

[keen rose]

really

[ripe radish]

yes

[keen rose]

well give aquila two steam catapults then

that should bring recon to par

and stop all ambushes

[keen rose]

ehhh

and give sandy a rudder instead of toolbox

[ripe radish]

A rudder is this right?

[keen rose]

ah, no

it's the high perforance hydraulic steering rudder

the gold eva aux

[ripe radish]

oh HSFCR

[keen rose]

no

[ripe radish]

washing machine? XD

[keen rose]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Improved_Hydraulic_Rudder

yes washing machine

[ripe radish]

my bad

[keen rose]

does it meet recon

with agir jeanne ancho in boss fleet

and aquila sandy changed

[ripe radish]

yes it meets the values

[keen rose]

that's 14-3 right

[ripe radish]

yes

[keen rose]

that's not enough for 14-4 uhhhh

[ripe radish]

rip then

[keen rose]

since 14-4 is 168

either keep shima over ancho (a bit more RNG)

raise suzut to replace sandy (for more eva and even surface damage)

agir jeanne shima is great tho

i think backline is fast enough to kill node before it kills you

i dont think suzut is really worth

[ripe radish]

maybe im not using the skills properly

like the airstrikes and all

[keen rose]

just auto

you said shima in boss died cos of ambush

so just bring recon up a little

[ripe radish]

no no i killed the boss

it's just right before i reach boss got ambush and lost 20-25% HP

[keen rose]

agir jeanne shima is still very meta very strong

[ripe radish]

but yeah shima did die in boss

if i didnt get ambush maybe shima survive

[keen rose]

but she ought wear double toolbox

just like so

[ripe radish]

i was doing things like waiting with 1 enemy ship so i can get an airstrike and heal my fleet

[keen rose]

it's like, fine but

i want to use you for data

and see how fleets run on auto

[ripe radish]

my auto just rams vanguard into enemy ships

[keen rose]

that's ok

[ripe radish]

i hate it so much like it just lose HP for no reason

[keen rose]

but it's data

kron aquila uni is plenty tanky to weather that

[ripe radish]

before ammo runs out everything is fine

after 0 ammo it's just pain

[crystal anvil]

That’s the problem yeah

[keen rose]

that's the point of 0 ammo dmg buff ships

[crystal anvil]

14-4 has an ammo node at least

[ripe radish]

RIP Unicorn

[keen rose]

aquila should be top position

but anyways, that's ok

aquila's point is to protect against that RNG

[ripe radish]

wait those things actually matter?

[keen rose]

yes

[ripe radish]

i used to think only flagship position matters

oh no

[keen rose]

aircraft TBs mostly launch towards the middle and bottom of the screen

so top position enemy BBs usually survive the most

speak of that

Musashi should also be top position in boss fleet

a little bit my bad

[ripe radish]

got it i'll change that

[keen rose]

and aquila is tankier

oh and

lethal RNG will kill just about every fleet

[keen rose]

was this on zero ammo?

[ripe radish]

Yes this was on zero ammo

[keen rose]

pretty healthy vanguard

[ripe radish]

Hi I managed to 3 star 14-3 after making it easy mode

14-4 is also manageable

i have 4 mobs left but i cant kill them they're too much

and the boss fleet survives really easily

Thank you so much

if possible could you also advice my OpSi fleet?

fleet 1 is boss fleet
Fleet 2 is mob fleet
fleet 3 and 4 are just fillers but i want them to be good too XD

[keen rose]

ok

[keen rose]

i forgot

[keen rose]

fleet pics

there

gimme awhile

im turning in some papers

[keen rose]

i'm sleeping

[keen rose]

That's gud, i was using u as a bit of a testing ground

[keen rose]

im going to class

does boss fleet complete with S rank?

[keen rose]

ok

[keen rose]

Aquila Independence Unicorn
Musashi Vanguard New Jersey Agir Helena Shimakaze
Yorktown 2 Enterprise August Anchorage someone someone

Could you repost your dock in a different sort

Sorted by rarity from URs through Elites, filtered by main fleet then by vanguard

[ripe radish]

I'm able to do most of the opsi content without any trouble it's just the arbiters

[ripe radish]

Sure sure

[keen rose]

augh

[ripe radish]

Vanguard now

Elite Main fleet

Elite Vanguard

[keen rose]

ouh

time to type tomorrow

[ripe radish]

im really grateful for your help

today it was a lucky day and my fleet managed to kill all of them at lethal

[keen rose]

pog

that strong

[keen rose]

OpSi Fleets: - Purvesh
Mob Fleet: Aquila Independence Unicorn, Azuma Rikka Sandy
CV Fleet: Shinano Hakuryuu Ark, Anchorage Bellona Chikuma
CV Fleet: Yorktown 2 Enty August, Kronshtadt Potter Aurora
BB Fleet: Musashi New Jersey Vanguard, Agir Helena Shimakaze

[ripe radish]

all thanks to you all

no FDG?

[keen rose]

hmmm

cos OpSi mobbing is fastest with different timing CVs

FdG is a bit easier to put into stronghold auto over aquila if you'd like
