#Last minute team build help
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
ok then
last minute for what?
Lemme know if i should keep going...only stopped cuz the rest r lvl 1 so figured...
SP for the 50 vouchers
Sp stage for the 50 pts mission.
why not sort by levels?
Had it by stats so i could better remove my gears.
btw in the future, max limit break one UR at a time. one MLB UR is better than 2 non MLB
This clears easily.
Just bring a healer in your mob team and decent damage in your boss team and fill it up with your highest level boats, and you should clear stupid easy
Mob: Musashi, Unicorn, Yamashiro, Takao, Laffey, Z23
Boss: Nagato, Warspite, Hiryuu, Kronshtadt, San Diego, Eugen
interesting
there Uniorn is level 90 and they literally don't have a single MLB UR
yeah, hope they use this as a moment to get better.
gear that up the best you can and give it a whirl
Feel like my terrible lvling should imply this...but most of them r also at 1/1/1 skill....
Will that change things?
you'll clear ever so slightly slower, but cheeky has a good eye for fleets
not like that makes a difference if everyone is like that
no
skills make a difference, but boat levels are most important.
oof
but yeah let this be an oppurtunity to learn
if you ever have more questions then gameplay help exists
wait do u save oil without using a full fleet
start by giving that a read https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips
cos that's what I've been doing
yes for intitial clear since oil cap isn't active
until you 100% a D stage you're using full oil so yeah, less ships = less oil
but it's questionable if they'll clear even with full fleets
lol I've not been using full fleets
yeah, don't try to save oil on this, just clear
yea ig
if u want ur laff2 then you gotta go hard on this
I genuinely have so much unclaimed mail that i doubt oil will be an issue ToT
also make sure you're mob fleet is all in 2nd floor dorm since they'll be fighting for a while
damn I forgot about oil caps
Gosh, my gear/depot is genuinely so trash idk if there's even a point lol
thats only for when u 100% the stage
Shouldnt have any equipped since i just spent the last 10 min clearing everything.
that was pointless
you see that button that says equipped in the bottom left corner
coulda just tapped on that
and it would have showed all gear, even stuff that was equipped on ships
Ah, i mean, i was doing that to get a better idea of my ship stats without the gears distorting them...
you wouldn't happen to have 3000 xp packs lying around would you?
Unless the game usually sends a bunch in the mail that i havent checked... no, only got 50.
something like that
open more tech boxes for rudders/naval camos
if I left a lot empty then it means it doesn't really matter what goes there
Sea Fang on Unicorn should the F6F
I super appreciate this, but uh...
Idk of the results would change things too much? So to save time, is there anything i should look out for?
open those 2 T5s and see if you get something good
those T3s won't net anything of value other than more rudders/naval camos
maybe an extra shell or Tenzen
but that's pretty much it
oh and those T4s as well
open those T5s and T4s and show me what you get
not much will change TBH realistically
Steam catapult and Seafang?
Yee
Btw, 2 questions.
With how wonky im forced to run my team, im assuming i should do this manually? No auto?
Also...exactly how much time do i have to reach SP? Like im pretty sure it aint midnight for PST at least?
manual if you have to
and you have until reset so about 6 hours
that's only 55 points though
you'll still need 10 more bun bun vouchers
just a quick question what software is that
im not sure if it was a preset on your software...but i dont have the blue hydraulic wheel thing you put in for half the vanguards....like not even 1 lol...
is that gonna be a big deal?
like I said
open your T3 tech boxes to try and get more
Naval Camo is basically the same thing as well
Its been a while, but to unlock SP, i dont actually need the full 3 star right? Just the 100%?
yep
then if iirc its 7 battles to spawn the boss with 3 mandatory mini bosses
elites aren't mandatory to clear
u cant get around them tho?
mb i shoulda clarified that it was SP
So uh...moving on to the D stages have gotten a bit harder. Firstly the formation requirement is different? So I was forced to replace my Sandy and now my Boss killing team is struggling.
I've managed to skate by D-1 by turning my Boss killing team into my mob killing team and using my mob team for the boss. I'm halfway through D-2 rn and idk if imma make it...
Is this a team issue or lvl/gear issue?
I replaced my Sandy with lvl 99 Shimakaze. I managed my first run of D-2 by swapping roles so it should be fine but idk about D-3 or SP. Is the SP significantly harder or nah?
oof... the "free" laffey....is she worth spending a few hundred gems to heal my ships?
if you can't even do D2 then you definitely can't do SP
okay so...D2 is actually super easy...provided I avoid the moving Elite mobs. Like one encounter with them, does nothing to my main fleet but takes out like 50-75% of my vanguard's HP.
Literally everything else in the entire stage does nothing to my team....
You can try that tactic on SP but lol. Justice on mob will help 
If my main fleet is perfectly fine and it basically my vanguards that r dying, is there any rec for what to do or who to swap in given what I got?
your fleets are just in really bad shape. and did you really use unicorn and equip her properly?
Im running the equip setup above and yes, she was mentioned multiple times so I've def been keeping her on my team.
Idk if this changes anything, but I just collected 400 of the 3k exp thing. Could i use this on someone that would really boost my team?
Rn im stuck on D3 cuz even with dodging the elite mobs, Im now dying to the boss so is there any vanguard carry that I have that i could level up?
- that's supposed to be yamashiro not amagi
Fleet 1 originally cleared mobs in the C stages, but then Fleet 2 started dying to the boss so I swap. Swapping got me through D1 and D2.
- shimakaze is not supposed to be tank. you have two tanks. use anyone as tank besides shimakaze
Uh...i think its the requirement for the stage, I cant put yamashiro in the team.
- fleet 2 is not supposed to clear mobs. unicorn clears mobs...
understood. move people
tap adjust there
also shift Laffey to the boss fleet, and move San Diego to the mob fleet
would using the 400 3k exp on like guam or unzen make a difference here?
this is better
boss: nagato amagi hiryuu, takao, ayanami, kronk
mob: musashi, warspiteyamashiro, unicorn, eugen, laffey, z23
actually get rid of warspite for yamashiro
use subs judiciously
yeah i think im calling it. With less than an hour left, my full hp boss team died to the boss on D3. 80 bars dropped to like 35 before my vanguards all died...
dont think im reaching SP ToT
Yeah, rerun also failed.
While im giving up on getting laffey II for now and just hoping for a rerun in the future. Could i trouble yall one last time for suggestions on building 2 actually good fleet?
Like without time constraint, what 6 ships (+subs if possible) should I fully invest into for now to tackle future general content?
sure
this mainly to get you to W12 for now
Mob: Hood, Unicorn, Saratoga, Kronshtadt, Laffey, Z23
Boss: Musashi, Enterprise, Warspite/Ark Royal, Eugen, Helena, San Diego
that basically
most of your URs are useless because you can't limit break them
always focus on max limit breaking one ship at a time rather than several at once since non max limit broken ships are garbbage
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/newbie_tips read that if you haven't already
start getting all that leveled up ASAP
we have a rerun dropping next week
thankfully no where near as much as stuff you want to get from the event shop
so it'll be a bit more relaxed
oh shit wait....
u just made me check out the current shop....I have enough to buy laffey II if i spend all 10k of my event currency on the Bunbun voucher....so basically, trade Flasher for laffey II....i should go through with that right?
yeah.. wont get much use from her for a while lol.
so in that case, the moment i get my next bullin, I use it to fully max kron or musashi right? I dont put it towards guam or any other UR since max limit takes priority?
max limit break Musashi first
honestley Kronk can on a massive back burner for now
priority for you is something like
you know how to buy UR bulin right?
Musashi>Vanguard>=NJ or UvH(pick 1)>=Implacable>Yorktown 2>Guam>Unzen>Laffey 2>>Kronshtadt>>>>>Shimakaze
uhhh....monthly core shop? he says with no confidence?
Prototype Shop
check to see if you can buy any
who knows you might have a decent stockpile
oof nope. only got 2k.
rip
so then for now, in terms of dorms at least, I should put these guys in there instead of the URs since they wont get much use until they hit max right?
My plan should be to focus on awakening and getting them to 120 + raise skills while slowly grinding for bulins for the UR?
pretty much
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/common_resource read this for info on how to get UR Bullins
gotcha.
Gotta admit...kinda surprise most of the reccomended ships are familiar names back from when the game first started. Is it just because their retrofits are just that good? or is there another reason?
a combination of you already having them leveled, some ships just aging well, and others receiving some help in the form of augments
huh. Some of the rec r cuz they're already leveled? So like, if i said i was willing to start from scratch to raise a ship, like say Rikka from the gridman collab? Would that change any of ur recs at all or nah? Cuz unlike the UR bullins, I actually have a bunch of gold bullins so technically max limit SR ships wont really be an issue for me if that was a concern?
no
it's moreso an issue of time
what you have isn't 100% ideal or the best but it works
the idea is to get a fleet together that works, push to W12 ASAP since it's the best farming spot in the game
and then start looking at long term replacements since it's easier and more practical once in your in W12
you have the resources to do and a good place to farm for coins and XP
so like Rikka would be an upgrade assuming she has all her gear
but it would take time to get her leveled
and time is kinda the thing you have the least of
Gotcha!
Hopefully I can hit W12 soon and then get started on actually building a worthy team lol.
Thnx you so so much for all the help! Both with the event and also with all the rec/guide/advice on moving forward! Really really appreciate it!!!
did you finish the sp level? Nvm, looks like you didn't. Sorry man. Hope you have better set up by next event.
It worked out though cuz i still hit my goal of getting laffey II from exchanging all the currency i had.
Really appreciate all the help u and everyone else in thus thread gave!
