can someone help with a fleet?

brazen dome
#

your ships

neat flare
#

sorry ill order them in vanguard and main

brazen dome
#

Will you manual?

neat flare
#

auto

neat flare
#

dont have aurora

brazen dome
#

Replace with DDG or kazagumo for CVs, or Plymouth for BBs

#

These are the fastest-winning auto fleets that I know of and I made them
But the timings are very strict

#

For the carrier fleet, the carriers must be 20.0 to 20.3s (except enterprise can be much slower), with Yorkii and implacable being very very close to each other

#

For the BB fleet, Bisz should be 19.2 to 19.5s, I forgot. But more importantly, the DDG missiles must be very close to 20s

#

DDGs can take an autoloader or goldburn to reach 20s.
I'm not aware of a DDG missile reload calculator, so you could trial and error in battle or plug numbers into a gun reload formula ripped from the wiki (add a volley time of 0.3s for SY-1)
And for the BB fleet, you will do very little damage in the first 2 minutes because Helena procs Cannon protection. If you manual delay the BBs first salvo by 10 to 12 seconds, DPS will increase by a lot

#

understood

#

thanks for the help

brazen dome
#

The timing would be a lot more lenient on manual

#

if you need help with the auto timing, renhex can help 🏃‍♂️

neat flare
#

🫡

#

imma try

#

i dont have any of these CleveStare

#

if i go with bb fleet i dont have that hair green haired ship

brazen dome
#

ShimaThink time to use an autoloader shimakaze
DPS will be tight without Aurora and missile though

neat flare
#

i trust my shimakaze

brazen dome
#

Havee shims torps be 19.7 to 19.97s

#

For good dps, manual for the first 30 seconds then turn on auto so that the BBs are staggered immediately

neat flare
#

is this one good

neat flare
#

no luck, barely do any damage even on normal

#

its alright i hope i get better luck next month

brazen dome
#

Is the missile and torpedo timed properly to activate torpedo protection once the BBs are staggered away?

neat flare
#

how do i tell thats happening

brazen dome
#

The boss's skill popup

neat flare
#

my bb's shoot after she activates the skill

brazen dome
#

I guess your BBs aren't faster than 20s by enough
Hold the BB salvos for the first 30 seconds to avoid that

brazen dome

#

oh

#

was using bismarck as flagship

#

just for insight, i dont have all the UR and event limited gear from the pics

#

so im using what im assuming is the next best thing

glossy island
#

sorry for the intrusion but

#

the 1 number means flagship?

#

i haven't seen anything asides from cannon protection

#

and my aurora is still too low level wise

#

same with my DDG's

#

both at 120

#

can anything be done?

brazen dome
#

120 should be enough, you probably mistimed. Missiles must be 20 seconds

glossy island
#

20.7s

#

haven't seen anything lower than that

#

aurora is a big problem tho

#

level 107

#

she's... kinda dead mid battle most of the time

#

can helena work instead of aurora?

#

yup, tried again and same problem

#

aurora doesn't survive

brazen dome
#

DDGs will need autoloader or goldburn, and give aurora rudder and toolkit. helena is a lot worse

glossy island
#

and noshiro?

#

ok what do i replace in the DDG sisters

#

seal for goldburn?

brazen dome
#

the oxytorp

glossy island
#

i think i did something wrong

#

added the loader but now they shoot at 19.8s

#

just when the main fleet starts blasting they already used the missiles

brazen dome
#

sounds like your main fleet are mistimed

#

BBs must be faster or slower than 20s

#

do you understand the point of the missiles?

glossy island
#

to maintain the torpedo protection?

#

now the missiles are at 20.6

brazen dome
#

how do you know it's 20.6 or 19.8

glossy island
#

i go into gear before entering battle and that's what appears

brazen dome
#

gear screen doesn't show chang chun's 12% rld buff or the missile's 0.3s volley time

#

it should probably be around 20.1 or 20.2 on the gear screen

#

get the missiles right and manually delay the BB's first salvo by 10s and then maybe gg

glossy island
#

oh the oxytorps had reload

#

that's why it went up over 20 again

#

huh

#

i can only hope now

#

24 times before this one

lament moth
#

How come the DDGs?

#

should I be replacing my frontline for desroyers?

glossy island
#

i could give you a kiss rn bro

#

thanks
