Need help looking at my gear for my ships

[feral lichen]

I don’t really have much so I just equipped whatever looked nice and stuff

[short canyon]

Did you open tech boxes, look at ECTL, etc

[feral lichen]

I get bad luck with techboxes but yea

And what is ECTL? If ur talking about that online thingy showing best gear for each character than yea kinda.

Don’t understand most of it tho

But yea this is what I have equipped on my characters

[short canyon]

Higher means more recommended on there

[feral lichen]

All I know is all the higher guns are from gear lab and I can’t do that lol

[short canyon]

Some of the gear you're using doesn't even pass as poverty

[feral lichen]

That’s why I just went with anything I have that’s on that list

Yea I’m poor don’t have lots of gear

[short canyon]

you don't have blue rudder/camos?

or enough Helldivers for everyone

[feral lichen]

What’s that?

[short canyon]

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

[feral lichen]

I might have some not sure

[barren mural]

250k coins and never used a purple part. should have plenty to enhance with.

[short canyon]

check then

and relook at the ECTL

[feral lichen]

lol I just recently got up to that amount since I used all my cubes and coins to get unzen at 200 builds

[short canyon]

and enhance your gear

[feral lichen]

I have 2

[short canyon]

can you craft any

[feral lichen]

I can craft 7

[short canyon]

great, you'll want one for each of your cruisers

[feral lichen]

Which ones are the cruisers

[short canyon]

....

vanguards that are not Laffey and Suzustuki

[feral lichen]

Oh it’s CL

?

[short canyon]

CLs and CAs

light and heavy cruisers

[feral lichen]

Yea that’s what I don’t get the letters lol

[short canyon]

it'll become 2nd nature in time

[feral lichen]

So like this?

[short canyon]

yes

also Change Noshiro's main gun, Richelieu's aux gun, and Volga's dive bomber

and Roon Muse's main gun

[feral lichen]

Change it to what?

[short canyon]

something better

Volga's DB to a Helldiver, Richuelieu's aux gun to what Noshiro's main gun is

Roon Muse to what Zara's main gun is

[feral lichen]

These are my only options lol for main gun

[short canyon]

why aren't you using the French 152

or your Twin 150 TKSB

[feral lichen]

Great question

I’m not sure

Which one is the French 152?

[short canyon]

2nd Gold Gun

[feral lichen]

Oh idk do I use this on one of my characters?

lol sorry im still confused on what to change after changing the aux to the hydraulic steering gear

[barren mural]

noshiro, not that it makes too much of a difference

[feral lichen]

ok changed it to noshiros gun

[barren mural]

give noshiro's gun to richy. the purple one that she was using

[feral lichen]

but first i have to fix my ship gear on my teams

Like this?

What should I change? This is for roons main gun

Oh Zara’s main gun

what should be zaras main gun

[short canyon]

why aren't you using the UR CA gun....

[feral lichen]

i think i got that after i equipped my guns

that's why

[short canyon]

give it to Roon

give Zara back her old gun

[feral lichen]

ok i did it

i think

[barren mural]

oops i keep thinking roon but it's room

[feral lichen]

actually let me just show you all the guns i have in categories

[barren mural]

you can stop. you need to tap equipped

[feral lichen]

oh

im basically done already

lol

[barren mural]

yeah but it's incomplete so

feel free to delete and start over

[feral lichen]

these are the ones i dont have equipped

lol

[barren mural]

what if you have a good gear equipped on a ship we don't know about?

[short canyon]

not using your Tash Gun

[feral lichen]

but you only care about the purple and golden/yellow

[short canyon]

^

[feral lichen]

Idk if this is any better but here

[short canyon]

you could have some stached away on ships you don't use

[feral lichen]

Nope I’m pretty sure I don’t

[short canyon]

Admiralty Fire Table, Manjuu, Cosmick Kicks

[feral lichen]

what?

oh

are there upgrades i could make to all my ships? lol

[short canyon]

yes

[barren mural]

what to start with. beaver? you have 430 depot space. surely you have every fletcher levelled?

[feral lichen]

nope

i just keep getting guns and never dismantlign so i kept buying storage

same with my ships keep gettign new ones but not leveling fast enough so kept buying space

[short canyon]

you know you can just throw gear on ships you're not using right

[feral lichen]

yea true ur right

i wasted all that currency already so its ok

[barren mural]

I'd like to see the second page of gold auxes

[feral lichen]

once i make my necessary upgrades ill level them all up to 6 and then i will attempt to get to w12 with these two teams

with 10k oil left

[barren mural]

what's with 6. there's nothing to save purple parts for. this is it

[short canyon]

+10 the good gear

[feral lichen]

because who knows if its the best gear there is

probably not

so just 6

[short canyon]

I do

[feral lichen]

if they are good i will do 10

[short canyon]

along with a lot of other people

[feral lichen]

yea true

pros that ware helping me

lol

[short canyon]

Tash Gun, Mk7, Helldiver, French 152

[feral lichen]

i will succeed because of you guys

thank you

[short canyon]

all that stuff is BiS or stuff you're not replacing a for a good long while

[feral lichen]

what is tash gun?

[short canyon]

Twin 130mmm

also dunno why you're hoarding purple plates

[feral lichen]

purple plates?

[short canyon]

stuff you need to enhance gear past +6 to +10

[barren mural]

what's here? guessing goldburn and dynamic cannon. hololive gear?

[barren mural]

2 Mk7

[feral lichen]

i think so

This stuff

[feral lichen]

im not hoarding

[short canyon]

then why do you refuse to +10 gear

saving does nothing when you need to progress now

[feral lichen]

i thought we were still upgrading my gear for the characters

[short canyon]

plates and coins can easily be replenished

also use those Caliburs in your Cruisers

[barren mural]

it's cheeky's game. i'm just watching mostly. what do you want to look at next? destroyers, sirius, and bama/zara aux guns?

[short canyon]

you know what

lemme make this really simple

[feral lichen]

what is this

[barren mural]

the gold sword called gridman calibur is an evasion gear

[feral lichen]

ok sure i like it simple

lol

[barren mural]

better than the blue stuff

[feral lichen]

oh ok

would i need it more on boss fleet or mob fleet

or one on each

[barren mural]

my guess is room gets kicks. zara and noshiro get calibur

sirius copes with blue

[barren mural]

~~that's pretty expensive for medicore evasion gear ~~

you've never done research?

[short canyon]

copy that

couldn't be bothered to figure out the AA

so I'll leave that up to you

actually no wait

[feral lichen]

oh ok thanks

[feral lichen]

what research?

[feral lichen]

do i need augments?

[short canyon]

no

[feral lichen]

thanks for this

im guessing any anti air is fine tho right? at least for now

[short canyon]

not like you have that much of choice

[feral lichen]

lol true i dont have much

thank you

[barren mural]

do not enhance the purples

i would try coping for more gold aa first

[feral lichen]

how do i even get more gold aa?

I can craft these gold ones

lol i can actually craft a lot of gold guns

Don’t know if these are better tho

[short canyon]

bruh

[feral lichen]

what?

sorry lol

[short canyon]

Craft the Rudder and that Gold Quad Bofors

Barracudda as well

[feral lichen]

what is the rudder and gold quad bofors

[short canyon]

Improved Hudraulic Stearing Gear and what it says

[feral lichen]

These?

[short canyon]

yes

[feral lichen]

ok done i made them

lol

[barren mural]

[feral lichen]

lol im just gonna send the cahracters over again if there are no more changes im gonna upgrade to 10 and start doing some stages

Thank you for being patient with me tho

[short canyon]

it's fine now, maybe Barracudda on Enty and Rudder instead of Toolbox on Roon Muse

just enhance the gear

[barren mural]

rudder on zara, noshiro copes with calibur

[feral lichen]

wait so no toolbox on roon just evasion?

[short canyon]

yep

[feral lichen]

do i use the blue one or the gold one on roon lol

[feral lichen]

ok thanks

[feral lichen]

does roon need more evasion or more heals lol? because i could equip her with a blue rudder but like idk

[barren mural]

gold

[short canyon]

she's your boss tank

[barren mural]

is she? room was with richy and uni i thought

[short canyon]

so trying to beef up her durability as much as possible

[barren mural]

oh in your pic you refleeted

toolbox vs blue evasion is probably equal. i wouldn't sweat over it

[feral lichen]

im probably gonna level purples to 6 only and gold to 10 lol

im actually running out of purples lol

wait am i supposed to change my fleet too? lol

i didnt do that yet

oh just changed one ship around

what is that x? you telling me to level all to 10?

[barren mural]

gold doesn't always mean best

[feral lichen]

you know what ill just level all to 10 ill get these plate back anyways

[barren mural]

even moreso when looking at what to enhance amongst 12 ships worth of gear

[barren mural]

do you have enough or not?

[feral lichen]

idk i probably will have enough

but after leveling all to 10 i wont have enough for more ships

[barren mural]

it would be alright to leave most toolboxes at +6 for example.

whereas volga's torpedo bomber kind of sucks

[feral lichen]

i will leave all anti air and toolboxes at 6

everything else is 10

[barren mural]

purple cats at +6 is ok also

[feral lichen]

pruple cat purple toolbox purple anti air at 6

everything else is 10

[barren mural]

actually use the feather instead of a purple cat

it doesn't matter anyway

the point isn't to clear with 1 HP remaining by the skin of your teeth. You're going to be obliterating everything on the way to 12

a couple of pluses here and there won't matter

[feral lichen]

lol ok i will jsut level up what i have now

[barren mural]

oh i know what's been nagging me. I would put bama in mob and richy in boss. I think bomb boat defense is going to be more important than whatever richy loses as a bossing ship. Not like bama is a bossing ship either. but you can keep it the way cheeky has it. i don't feel too strongly about it.

[feral lichen]

once i get better ships ill have better teams and stuff this is just the team ill use to achieve everythign else

[barren mural]

you know unless you already have 513 haku bp and judging by your gear you don't, haku isn't going to do anything for you for months. for best results play the game where it's meant to be played and not toiling around in low reward chapters.

actually based on what i saw you don't even have focus set correctly. Set your research focus to season 4 immediately.

[feral lichen]

i did lol

well i made changes as best as i could but yea got kinda overwhelming so maybe i did some things wrong

other than that im trying the chapters now

ifollowed to the best of my ability

[short canyon]

how?

what was killing you

[feral lichen]

the end lol

i got two different opinions and i kinda got lost

also you said to change roon to double evasion or something

[short canyon]

I did

[feral lichen]

actually i will just send what i did to my charracters you tell me if i did everything correctly lol

[short canyon]

what was happening to your boss fleet

what was dying and how

[feral lichen]

Well I did not get to a boss yet but I was just so deep in thought if I made the right changes

[short canyon]

so did the mob fleet die?

also +10 Enterprise's and Volga's Heldivers

[feral lichen]

richelieu keeps getting damaged like crazy but no deaths yet

but rich might

lol

[short canyon]

oh yeah

you're in W10 right?

[feral lichen]

11 now

11-1

i was done with 10 already

[short canyon]

drop the black shell for a Fire Extnguisher

for W11

[feral lichen]

Might survive tho tbh

[short canyon]

that's nothing lmao

[feral lichen]

lol yea but its close to half health

[short canyon]

half

[feral lichen]

other than that im surviving

[short canyon]

you should see some fleets after 5 W14 mob fights

the entire fleet is practically dead

[feral lichen]

that's why its probably not doable for me lol

[short canyon]

until you see a wrench over her

there's nothing to worry about

[feral lichen]

so level helldivers to 10 and that's it?

because for aux pruple plates im actually low

[short canyon]

yes

[feral lichen]

can't upgrade

lol

[short canyon]

expected

[feral lichen]

ok thanks

why tho? how did you expect that

[short canyon]

2 aux for each ship

vs like 1 gun average for each ship

I and many others experienced Aux plate shortages at your stage for that reason

it'll get better in time

[feral lichen]

how do i get more aux plates tho?

[short canyon]

farming

[feral lichen]

im still slowly upgrading all the skills to level 10 its so slow

lol

testing the boss fleet now

lol

see if it can defeat the 11-1 boss

nobody died

is it possible to 3* 100% 11-1 to 12-4 with basically 9000 stamina/oil left

[short canyon]

sure

[feral lichen]

actually i think i have to start leveling up my Hakuryuu farming fleet. need like 1.5 mil exp

[short canyon]

wait till you get W12 down to safe

[feral lichen]

Do you know which of these are good for the main fleet? Or the back line?

[short canyon]

stick them in the dorm for the time being

[feral lichen]

lol yea but look at my underleveled characters need to get them ready

Who do I stick in the dorm lol

[short canyon]

Owari +2

[feral lichen]

I only have two slots lol

[short canyon]

who up to you

[feral lichen]

souryuu and hiryuu lol since they are both 100

[feral lichen]

how can i get oil? other than the cafeteria

[short canyon]

comissions, mail

[barren mural]

tis but a flesh wound

[feral lichen]

dang this is a long process to get oil

[barren mural]

ryuuhou and shinano but you didn't answer why are you so focused on haku and what miracle do you expect her to perform? Haku will not be any good for at least 4 months.

[feral lichen]

i have to start somewhere

lol

FdG/Uni/Indep+Agir/Harbin/Unzen
Shinano/Hakuryuu/Implacable+Kronstadt/Kazagumo/Sirius

for this

[barren mural]

also raciing for haku while shinano rots...the shinano haku ship is real

[short canyon]

yep

[feral lichen]

well

like you said lol

its gonna take at least 4 months

lots of time

plus i have otehr pr ships

to go for before i can use unzen or shinano

so its ok

[barren mural]

this looks like bad tactics btw. you should try not to save a 3* bb for last

[short canyon]

developing other PR should would be more beneficial in the mean time

FDG, Anchorage, Agir, etc

[feral lichen]

lol yea i was gonna change to anchorage

gotta wait 24 hours tho

should i focus on getting 3* and 100% first or focus on getting to w12

then going back to 3* in the future

[barren mural]

3* before cost limit is a waste of oil anyway

[feral lichen]

lol yea i know

can't i move on when im at 100% or do i need 3*

lol

[barren mural]

right arrow means right side choice you provided which is focus on getting to w12

[feral lichen]

dang im at 8700 oil already just from doing 11-1 that's from 10k to 8.7k

idk if i will make it to 12

[barren mural]

you know haku will cost you like 40000 oil so 10000 to prep the way to 12 is nothing

[feral lichen]

niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

tbh this all started because i want to use unzen and shinano

lol

since i bought their swimsuit skins lol

ya know

[barren mural]

and this is why you should have done someone like anchorage. you're already using EU vanguards and that frees up your backline to be anything which means you can stealth raise ryuuhou. then when anchorage is done, ryuuhou will be ready to take over unicorn's job and you won't need to waste a slot on unicorn.

[feral lichen]

yea lol i know

that's why im gonna change it

tomorrow

to anchorage

unless ur telling me to not do that lol

[barren mural]

rush anchorage. if you haven't already, set your catchup to anchorage. through catchup and pr5 general bp you may even be able to D30 anchorage immediately

[feral lichen]

when they said i need specific techpoints to unlock the ship

they meant like overall right

not like at that moment?

[barren mural]

yeah you don't spend them, you just need to be at that level

[feral lichen]

oh ok thanks

then i have around 1200-1400 in each faction

oh nvm iron blood only 1.1k everything else is 1.4-1.5k

[barren mural]

there's nothing that needs more than like 1000 currently so it doesn't matter

[feral lichen]

fleet tech upgrading it is good right? i did that lol

wait a sec what's the most efficient way to get 100% on each stage? i've just been fighting all mobs and boss until

i get 100%

maybe that's why i've been wasting all that oil

crap

[barren mural]

rush the boss

[feral lichen]

what does that mean?

like do mob? as soon as boss shows do that?

and repeat until 100%

?

oh wow i've been wasting oil

so sad

[feral lichen]

which w12 stage do i farm? im still at 11-2 with 7k left lol

[short canyon]

12-1 or 12-4

[feral lichen]

which one gives more exp coin and better drops maybe?

[short canyon]

drops are irrelevant

12-1 is better for XP:Oil effieincy and cogs

12-4 is better for coins

[feral lichen]

im still at 120k coins

do i need more coins?

lol

[short canyon]

coining FDG, keeping the research que filled, upgrading gear, etc

it's expensive

[feral lichen]

mayeb i go for 12-4 then

lol

ur right

need the coins

lol 25

how many do i need again?

[barren mural]

508

[feral lichen]

maybe in a year then

[barren mural]

two weeks maybe 4 tops

[feral lichen]

how lol

is there a speedrun for this

[barren mural]

yes, anchorage catchup

[feral lichen]

how many do we get from that?

[barren mural]

300 assuming you didn't use it on someone else

[feral lichen]

but i thought you said it was for anchorage?

how do i use it on someone else

[barren mural]

tell the game you want to use it on someone else

[feral lichen]

where do i see it?

This thing?

[barren mural]

yes

[feral lichen]

so you can only choose one ship per pr?

[barren mural]

that would be best. the rainbows get their own buckets

[feral lichen]

level 30 dang dang dang

how long did it take you?

[barren mural]

it's irrelevant. you have catchup. i didn't

[feral lichen]

then i will do it the legit way wont use catchup

lol

[barren mural]

...ok your choice to be slow

[feral lichen]

ill probably do the catchup but catching up is slow too i think since it dpends on the amount of coins you have and stuff

and basically i was always low

before this event

[barren mural]

catchup is 300 free bp

[feral lichen]

how do i get the 300

by doing research projects right?

what do they cost? lots of coin lol and other resources. that's what im saying. i wasnt always rich in coin

[barren mural]

say you want it, do some research and it just magically appears. 1 or 2 an hour or something like that

[feral lichen]

i literally went to 0 for unzen but i just kept farming and got up to 250k

[barren mural]

it costs 0

[feral lichen]

the research is free? don't need to pay coins or anything?

[barren mural]

it's literally what the name says. catchup

you can research anything you want

as long as you finish projects you get free bp

[feral lichen]

the research still costs coins and stuff tho right?

[barren mural]

don't pick ones that cost coin then although you're never going to get haku with that strategy. just go find something else to do besides research if you aren't willing to do projects

[feral lichen]

don't tell me i've been doing it wrong lol

buddy when have i said that at all

i dont mind using coins i mind using cubes tho since im low on that

gotta wait for new urs and reruns

[barren mural]

nothing forces you to use cubes

[feral lichen]

yea that's good because im only using coins

how many pr ships do you still need?

[barren mural]

what does need mean?

how many do i have?

[feral lichen]

need to finish the collection

[barren mural]

i have all

[feral lichen]

how many are you missing

oh niceeeeeeeeee

[barren mural]

0

[feral lichen]

maybe one day that will be me

[barren mural]

if you play the game it's not very hard. approximately 40000 oil and 6 days per ship. you only get about 28000 oil a week so just call it 2 weeks per ship. There's 32 ships so 64 weeks or a little over a year

[feral lichen]

when do i have to worry about submarines or augments?

[barren mural]

you should use subs particularly in ops if you have them. augments don't really do anything. if you have the coin make them otherwise it's just another tiny boost.

[feral lichen]

oh cool thanks

i have subs but i dont use them lol i just dont know what theya re sued for

[barren mural]

burst damage

call them if you want something dead. consider it a special torpedo strike

[feral lichen]

what's the strongest submarine setup/team?

[barren mural]

81, 96, 37 or something

[feral lichen]

oh nice

thanks

lol i have none of those

[barren mural]

Any sub in ops is better than no sub

[feral lichen]

oh ok thanks

ops im assuming operation siren?

oh yea what about meowficers the cat things. do i have to worry about those yet

[barren mural]

Free to use so yes. It can be complicated but start with 2 gold ones

[feral lichen]

What do you mean by two gold ones

[barren mural]

Two gold cats

[feral lichen]

But do I just equip random ones lol

[barren mural]

Depends on how much you want to know and invest in cats. Meta cats can potentially increase performance by like 30%. But usually people are happy with 6-10%

[feral lichen]

im just happy with a 1% increase

lol

any % is helpful

[barren mural]

The worst cats is already like 2% so that's easy.

[feral lichen]

oh nice but do i even have use for blue or purple cats

or just keep the gold ones

[barren mural]

except for edelweiss not really

[feral lichen]

ok thanks

[feral lichen]

i keep running out of oil but im on 12-3 now

[barren mural]

You can stop at 12-1

[feral lichen]

im already farming 12-4 but now got a question should i make my two teams to 125? or just keep it at 120 since i dont really have much of the other core data the rare ones

[short canyon]

Save 125 for ships that you'll use late game long term
