Ive come back and left multiple times cause I keep struggling to make a functional team, for some reason this game breaks my brain when it comes to team building

#

for Main

#

jolly shell Mar 16, 2024, 12:56 AM

#

Nj/Uni/Independence for main.

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 12:57 AM

#

for vanguard

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 12:57 AM

#

where in campaign are you

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 12:57 AM

#

10-3

jolly shell Mar 16, 2024, 12:57 AM

#

Kron/Shima/Sandy for vanguard.

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 12:57 AM

#

also opsi fleets and campaign fleets differ widely if trying to be optimal

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 12:58 AM

#

id just like a general team for campaign and maybe like 2 or 3 for operation siren

#

and if theres certain ships i can work towards in the shipyard that will make my teams even better

#

these were what i was using before i quit

#

id love to make use of some of these urrs ive gotten if they have a place in my current shipyard

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:01 AM

#

well your main goal right now is push to W12 asap

#

then get to work on Operation Siren and PR

#

https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/research read that on how to do research optimally

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:02 AM

#

nelson uni independance - yatsen chang chun anshan
new jersey ulrich enterprise - sanfran helena sandy
push to w12 with these
and use em for now in opsi aswell
focus bulins in implacable and then soyuz
and focus on season 4 research and try to get fdg then season 4 ships like ancho and aegir and haku

#

retro nelson>indep

#

actually do ur ddg have their missiles and seals ?

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:03 AM

#

ddg?

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:03 AM

#

anshan and chang chun

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:04 AM

#

im gonna assume not since i dont know what that is

#

if ur talking about gear thats all i have

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:05 AM

#

uh yeah....

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:05 AM

#

then scratch that

#

portland kazagumo kawakaze (with aug)
and use nagato instead of nelson till u can push w11-1 or w12-1 pref

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:08 AM

#

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:09 AM

#

can you actually craft Kawakaze's augment

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:09 AM

#

#

uhhh i dont even know what an augment is, i see like the button for it but its a new concept to me

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:10 AM

#

so probably not then

#

use Laffey instead of Kawakaze

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:10 AM

#

#

is it this

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:10 AM

#

oh good you can

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:11 AM

#

oh is this what makes kawakeze good, i remembver her being like f tier on the tier list last time i looked and when i checked again when i came back shes like s tier now

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:11 AM

#

do /equip in #bot-spam and gear them up to the best of your ability

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:11 AM

#

yea, also needs to be upgraded to +10

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:11 AM

#

this is my augment stones atm

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:11 AM

#

should be enough i think

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:12 AM

#

yup looks like it

#

kekO

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:13 AM

#

opaque venture

do those teams look good @digital raven

#

ill level kawa up more ofc

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:13 AM

#

yes

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:13 AM

#

DorkHeart

#

sorry for being so much trouble, i get so overwhelemed with how many ships there are and i feel like everytime i come back certain ships are powercrept and others are insane again

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:15 AM

#

yea but gear is more important, you can make pretty much anything work if u gear her properly especially untill chapter 14

#

but u got good ships alr so it should be a breeze

#

the guide cheeky mentioned lists some poverty gears so ure good to go

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:16 AM

#

who is fdg?

#

i didnt know what i was doing so i was just researching kearsarge cause she was cute

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:17 AM

#

fdg is friedrich from season 2

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:17 AM

#

ohh, i have enough points to start her, i think i have enough points to start research from any season

#

for the most part

#

besides flandre

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:18 AM

#

you can finish ancho and then start her

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:18 AM

#

kk!

#

im gonna go fiddle with that gear bot you mentioned

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:19 AM

#

have fun

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:24 AM

#

how accurate is the azur lane community tier list gear, this seems a lot easier to look at but ill make the other guide work if thats more accurate

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:24 AM

#

it's fine if you read the gear descriptions

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:25 AM

#

the other guide is more accurate
this one is functional if you read descriptions

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:26 AM

#

its just like a lot of word vomit when i dont have any idea which ships need more range, or reload or whatnot

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:27 AM

#

that is..fair
we dont rly have a "how-to" gear guide more like gear evals
the only way is learning the gears and applying it to your experience in game

#

or well ask ppl here to rate/fix your setups

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:29 AM

#

yeah, I had this thrown together for my New Jersey and it seems like it kind of fits what the guide says

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:29 AM

#

yea looks good

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:32 AM

#

helena, also should i mess with these augments now or wait

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:32 AM

#

just wait

#

they're minor at the end of the day and an extra expense I doubt you can afford right now

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:33 AM

#

not rly
kawas is enough
you can mess with augs when u have more coin and alr in w12 and your other gear is at +10

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:37 AM

#

god my gear is so bad its unreal lol

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:38 AM

#

it's not too bad

#

I've seen a LOT worse

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:38 AM

#

yep

#

its just sandys torps and mby nagatos SG and rest looks fine

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:39 AM

#

and drop one the toolboxes on sandy for a rudder

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:39 AM

#

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:40 AM

#

twilit sinew and drop one the toolboxes on sandy for a rudder

dont have another rudder :(

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:41 AM

#

unicorn should use a parallel tb like gold barracuda
also i recc not upgrading past +10
gold plates are scarce so u rly wanna only do it gear you know its good
also 1 gear at +13 > 2 gear at +12

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:41 AM

#

opaque venture dont have another rudder :(

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Hydraulic_Steering_Gear#Type_3-0 I mean these

Azur Lane Wiki

Hydraulic Steering Gear

Universal Auxiliary

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:42 AM

#

what the heck is that

#

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:43 AM

#

it's a blue aux gear

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:43 AM

#

digital raven unicorn should use a parallel tb like gold barracuda also i recc not upgrading p...

is the barracuda better on her than enterprise

twilit sinew Mar 16, 2024, 1:43 AM

#

yes

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:47 AM

#

yea swapping their planes is ideal

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:48 AM

#

#

i think thats both teams

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:49 AM

#

same gun on kawakaze as kazagumo

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:49 AM

#

i only had that one

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:49 AM

#

should be ez to get in purple ijn boxes

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:49 AM

#

which one

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:49 AM

#

nvm its eagle union

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:50 AM

#

so i make these all 10 slowly?

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:50 AM

#

you can open 10 and see if u get it yea

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:50 AM

#

i meant like upgrading the guns

#

what level do i stop at if they arent ideal, 10 or 8?

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:50 AM

#

ah yea

#

10

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:50 AM

#

kk

#

if only my depot capacity wasnt depressing af

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:52 AM

#

offensive gear fist like guns and planes
primary guns over secondary
auxiliarys
lastly aa
ofc they eat different plates but respective to coins

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:52 AM

#

opaque venture if only my depot capacity wasnt depressing af

giving ships gear to hold makes em not count in depot
so basicly you have infinite space as long as you have more ships in dock than gear to account for

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:53 AM

#

oh wtf

#

wish there was an autoequip button lol

#

alright i gave sandy the hydraulic steering gear, i gave kawakaze another 76mm gun, and i made a second golden barracuda cause i had enough, and gave that back to enterprise, everything else look good?

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:58 AM

#

enty can keep tenzan

#

its a good conv

#

give cuda to indep

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 1:58 AM

#

ohh kk

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 1:59 AM

#

for now u can follow the rule of
parallel torpedo bombers = mob
converging torpedo bombers = boss
altho this isnt always the case and later on kinda doesnt apply but till w13 its fine

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 2:01 AM

#

FaeNoted_2

#

What stage should i run to get gold, im gonn aneed so much of it to make these teams usable

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 2:03 AM

#

pref push to at least w11-1
then grind till u can push w12-1 which will where you set tent for a long time ( or 12-4 either works )

#

but if u havent alr you should grind event

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 2:04 AM

#

yeah i havent touched the event yet im ngl

#

but now i got teams that i can cook with

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 2:05 AM

#

if mob team is struggling coz lvls then just swap nj with nagato

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 2:06 AM

#

which one is the mob team, the top one?

#

oh duh you just said that

#

derp

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 2:06 AM

#

yea the one with unicorn is pretty much always the mob team since thats the only fleet u run a mainhealer

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 2:08 AM

#

Just one last question, is the cattery something I should be concerned with, my cattery has been full for like years and its all like super rares and i was afraid to dump any of them

#

the whole system just hurts my brain

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 2:09 AM

#

my recommendation is the better you start with cats the better
they provide a non negligible bonus which will pay off in the long run

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 2:11 AM

#

its just filled with the SRs and finding out whats good and what to feed makes my brain melt

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 2:12 AM

#

its not rly that complicated it just boils down to

fish for good cats aka cats with good talents/potential ( the hard part )
feed bad cats into em to clean slots and boost their lvls
reroll or save for later
feed 4 dupes to lvl their skill to lvl 3 once ure settled on that cat
enjoy

#

ideally you have at least
2 bb cats, 2 cv cats, 2 SR cats ( for opsi nodes ) , 2 SS cats
bb cats are usually antenna as commander + oscar/lime as astaff
cv cats are usually bisha + jiro/ark
SS cats are steel + edelweiss
SR cats can be w.e but usually another pair/combination of CV or BB cats

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 2:15 AM

#

so basically i look at the cat type i have, and if it doesnt have the core talents then i just dump it into a cat that does have those talents?

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 2:15 AM

#

yeap

#

pretty much

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

do i want to look for one that has all 3 core talents

#

like for example this one has artillery ace and destiny

#

do i need to just keep digging for one with multiple good traits

digital raven Mar 16, 2024, 2:17 AM

#

a great cat is one that as all core talents at the same time

#

but that is hard to roll

#

so you want to start on a cat that has like 2-3 talents from core and then roll from there and reroll till u can the last one

#

but ofc in the beginning you take lesser cats that start on 0-2 core because they still good to have since free stats are free stats

#

oh yea and also single point talents like flame and soul are harder to roll so ideally your base cat at lvl 1 started with at least 1 of em

#

but yea lategame rolling cats is your only coinsink

#

dont gimp your income early on cats but still take ur free boxes and fish for em id say

opaque venture Mar 16, 2024, 2:25 AM

awesome, tysm
