W14 prep

[manic kernel]

Here

Main

[loud lava]

No vanny or nano huh

[tidal venture]

where are the vangaurds

[manic kernel]

Sadly miss their event

[signal talon]

I never used either

[manic kernel]

Vanguard

[signal talon]

You have sashi and fdg

[manic kernel]

Bad Internet, still loading

[signal talon]

So should be ez

[manic kernel]

FDG will FS5 in 2 more weeks

[signal talon]

You don't need fs5

[tidal venture]

Mob: Musashi, Aquila, Unicorn Retro, Yat Sen, An Shan, Chang Chun

[signal talon]

How many 457s

[manic kernel]

Aquila rerun after UR right? Can I substitute her with Klaudia?

[manic kernel]

Currently 1, I can get a 2nd one in 2 month at least

[tidal venture]

Yeah it's right after

[signal talon]

Tbh I don't like aql on mobs

[tidal venture]

can you substitute Klaudia for her eh not really

[crimson oriole]

aql on mobs is gud with musashi

maybe less without

[tidal venture]

do you not have Agir, Anchovy, basically any CBs

[crimson oriole]

as here

[manic kernel]

Anchor is my next PR4, once I FS5 AvP, I will use the rest of catch up on Anchor to get her to dev30

[tidal venture]

how about Agir?

[manic kernel]

I have Kala

[signal talon]

Vgs kinda weak

[manic kernel]

Maybe dev20 I think, she is not my current priority

[tidal venture]

yeah best you have is like Henrich Kala currently

[signal talon]

You can prob get away with kala poi nh2 boss

[manic kernel]

For 14 boss, Vanguard should be really tanky right?

[tidal venture]

yeah hence why I asked about CBs

[manic kernel]

Should I raise Sirius up for boss fleet CV buff instead of NH2?

[tidal venture]

not nearly tank enough

[crimson oriole]

NA2 is about as tanky as portland

which is still a little weak

well that's with CV buff, so it's a little less than taht

[tidal venture]

Boss: FDG, Yortkown 2, Enterprise, Agir, Poi Kai, Anchorage is what I'm currently thinking

[signal talon]

im pretty sure na2 nowhere near port

[manic kernel]

So Anchor? I see her in some of boss fleet comp

[tidal venture]

Anchorage and Agir is the go to combo yeah

a Dev 20 Agir should work

[crimson oriole]

misremembered, it was roon

man roon is bad

[manic kernel]

Hmm, I intend to raise Haku after Anchor, change her to Agir instead?

[crimson oriole]

pretty easily

[tidal venture]

a Dev 25 Anchovy will be fine as well

[manic kernel]

Could someone explain the number above? I don't get any of it

[signal talon]

they dont either

[manic kernel]

This one in particular

[crimson oriole]

everyone is some % of portland

portland is 100%

[tidal venture]

Roon is a scam lamo

[manic kernel]

Port that tanky? I never use her after rookie mission completed

[signal talon]

port is like the baseline

[crimson oriole]

idk about that tanky, more like roon and sanrui were just worse

[signal talon]

nah roons on par if you calc shields

[manic kernel]

Do you guys need my gears as well? and the one that in Boss fleet gears?

[crimson oriole]

probably

ill just shit something out

[manic kernel]

Ok, wait a bit

[crimson oriole]

no like

ill shit a gear screen

you replace as necessary

what're current recommendations

[manic kernel]

I only have 1 tenrai, currently 30/50 on the next one

So yk2 probably have to use helldiver

[tidal venture]

this for mob

[crimson oriole]

was it

[tidal venture]

this for boss

[manic kernel]

Yat tanky enough for 14-4? Do I need to 125 her?

[tidal venture]

yep confirmed it in JP patch notes

[crimson oriole]

you dont know how tanky chinawall is

[manic kernel]

Isn't FDG for mob and Sushi for boss?

[crimson oriole]

no i meant your recommendations include future ships

[tidal venture]

right after the UR event

[crimson oriole]

well if giang is delaying for a few weeks then ok

[crimson oriole]

in w14, they're literally ↔️

[tidal venture]

I mean they still have to MLB Yorktown 2 and get Agir and Anchovy up to scratch

[manic kernel]

I guess, I mostly need to know on who to raise next other than tech fodder

[crimson oriole]

ok

[manic kernel]

Yk2 is mlb

[tidal venture]

oh lamo visual bug

[manic kernel]

The visual bug obscure her star

[crimson oriole]

i think klaudia is way too close to unicorn

[manic kernel]

I do intend to go 14 after event, also don't know how new UR may impact the comp

[crimson oriole]

do you have ViTs from PR5

the russian TB

[manic kernel]

I can get one, I have 2 wyvern and 1 skypirate already

So didn't make the VIT

[crimson oriole]

vit is to make someone slower

[signal talon]

just use indep

[crimson oriole]

hmm

[signal talon]

x indep uni is standard

[crimson oriole]

it's standard but can it be better

[signal talon]

not with what he has

[manic kernel]

I could use some slower torp on Klaudia

[crimson oriole]

whatever im not arguing that

just use indep

[manic kernel]

Ok

I will get yat and Anshan to 120

[signal talon]

boss you can get away with like fdg + 2 cvs

[manic kernel]

Agir dev 20 and Anchor dev30 can tank all 14 boss? What will be my choice for mid then?

[crimson oriole]

FdG Independence Unicorn Yat Sen Kazagumo An Shan
Musashi Yorktown 2 Enterprise Kala Yuudachi Heinrich?

[signal talon]

prob fine until 14-4

[crimson oriole]

yuudachi

[tidal venture]

will that boss fleet vanguard survive?

[signal talon]

i dont think so

[crimson oriole]

kala VH is actually very tanky

yuudachi and heinrich will get sniped and die

[signal talon]

considering 3x cb dies

[tidal venture]

yeah that's what I was thinking

[signal talon]

poi should be fine

[manic kernel]

Agir is heavy right?

[crimson oriole]

yea

Poi almost died on safe for me on 14 boss

[manic kernel]

So no need to put VH on her?

[crimson oriole]

Agir is stronger with double eva than eva vh

[signal talon]

and torps are a threat

[crimson oriole]

im slotting for this

[manic kernel]

Which boss that launch torp in 14?

[crimson oriole]

14-3

[manic kernel]

Replace Kala and Hein with Agir dev20 and Anchor will be better?

[crimson oriole]

ngl might slot ancho kala agir

instead of yuudachi

[manic kernel]

Do I need kazagumo for mob or Chang chun work better?

[signal talon]

they all have some torps shitting on you

[crimson oriole]

im considering kazagumo

rather than a ddg

i gearing rn

one or two tenrai

[crimson oriole]

ok

how close to protocoring the second one

[manic kernel]

The first one is protocore

I guess I may get the 2nd one in next month if I have Luo luck

[crimson oriole]

you wont

ok i gear

[manic kernel]

So for Sushi if she is bossing, barrage gun 410 kai or keep Izumo gun?

[signal talon]

prob izumo

[tidal venture]

I'd run Izumo Gun

410 is sad for damage

[signal talon]

partially why i dont like sashi boss

[manic kernel]

Bc FDG can run 457?

[signal talon]

ye

desyncs better

[tidal venture]

or you just Musashi with 457 anyway

[signal talon]

its kinda awkward

since most things are heavy/med

[manic kernel]

NJ with 457 work in boss? I will try to get her in rerun after all

[signal talon]

njs kinda weak

[tidal venture]

yeah, I take Vanny over NJ any day for W14

[signal talon]

id take odin over both

[manic kernel]

I thought NJ was top on the list, she perform that bad in 14?

[signal talon]

you dont want single target

[crimson oriole]

usually

[tidal venture]

that and better ships have come a long for the job

[manic kernel]

Point taken

[tidal venture]

as for reruns, we'll see how hectic stuff get's this year

[crimson oriole]

I miscounted wyverns

indep wears wyvern

[manic kernel]

Hmm, I don't have Tiger but I have flap, will it make do?

[signal talon]

ye

[crimson oriole]

the important stagger is enty faster than YK2

[manic kernel]

Also, why beacon on Enty and not yk2?

[signal talon]

yt2 will desync enty

[manic kernel]

I need to make boss fleet stagger?

[signal talon]

yes

[tidal venture]

Ju-87d on Enty?

[manic kernel]

I have 2 Junker, can arm her with that

[crimson oriole]

maybe ju on enty

[signal talon]

ju87 is pog

[crimson oriole]

rice said that jus tend to aim upwards

wyverns all launch towards bottom side of map

[signal talon]

it tends to kill 2 things on the bb wave

[tidal venture]

fair enough

[manic kernel]

Can Anchor use the Double french torp for faster proc of her skill?

[crimson oriole]

seriously doesnt matter

just something fast

[manic kernel]

I guess I can get most of the gear of substitute them with something similiar

Why Indep get EVA gear?

[crimson oriole]

cos musashi isnt there to tank for her

even if you keep stealth, BB prod random targetting still hits your CVs

[manic kernel]

I see

[signal talon]

i think that vg leaks anyways

[crimson oriole]

probably

[signal talon]

i dont see it killing even 1

[crimson oriole]

maybe kazagumo isnt good

[tidal venture]

I mean you can't lethal 3 star with that set up

[crimson oriole]

kazagumo presupposes strong intercept

[signal talon]

im talking about boss

[crimson oriole]

oh

[tidal venture]

probably but what can you do

[signal talon]

i prob should get back into fucking with w14 again

[crimson oriole]

i feel like fdg and indep cooldowns cross over too much

[manic kernel]

So I keep waiting? Actually, I wasn't intend to do 14 this early, FDG coinable push my schedule up by half a year

[tidal venture]

probably wait at this point

[signal talon]

thats why i usually run fdg boss and gas mob

[crimson oriole]

i wouldnt wait

[tidal venture]

you need to lvl up Agir and Anchovy anyway

[manic kernel]

So I perfectly fine with waiting for a few more month

[crimson oriole]

did you not get BPs yet

[crimson oriole]

o i see

[manic kernel]

BP for whom?

[crimson oriole]

agir and ancho

[manic kernel]

Anhor is about 90 BP to dev30, Agir is about more than 300 if catch up, I was prioritze Haku before her

[signal talon]

i think you can kinda get away with kala/noshi/poi on boss

not entirely sure tho

[tidal venture]

I feel like that just dies as well

[crimson oriole]

i ran variants of stuff like that

[signal talon]

i mainly ran cb/jda/shima for all my boss fleets

[crimson oriole]

I had an awful backline, so i was prob having vang take way too much dmg

i ran portland jeanne noshiro

[tidal venture]

I think I ran like Anchovy, Shima, Kronk

my backline was just a mess though

[manic kernel]

What is this year UR rerun outside of NJ again?

Or only NJ rerun

[tidal venture]

Shima and maybe UvH

nothing confirmed though

[manic kernel]

Isn't UvH last year? Shouldn't be her rerun to be next year?

[tidal venture]

also depedns how many reruns they squeeze in

well they only did four large event reruns last year

[crimson oriole]

uvh was dec 2021-jan2022

[tidal venture]

hence why I said maybe

[crimson oriole]

supposing Uvh this year may be late 2023

i.e ~2 years

[manic kernel]

God, I hope not, my cube only barely recover to pre York2 number

[tidal venture]

we don't have a lot of rerunable content from 2021 so

[crimson oriole]

why dont i just have fdg run champagne gun

nah that's worse

ignore

[manic kernel]

Thanks guys, I get the gist of the comp, might need to wait for while for event and seeing how new stuff may change my situation

Do I need to close the thread if I am done asking or leave it open?

[crimson oriole]

if you close the thread by yourself, you can re open it

if a moderator passes by to close your thread, it is mod-locked

[manic kernel]

Yuki is the mod right?

[crimson oriole]

any mod can close it :weirdchamp:

[signal talon]

doesnt it just auto close anyways

[crimson oriole]

no

that was disabled by discord

im not sure if it was re-enabled recently
