help with making second fleet and improving main fleet

[rare coyote]

what are you trying to clear

[grave bloom]

event sages and W8+

[rare coyote]

whats your current fleet

nvm i can see it

stick to pennsylvania over alsace for now

alsace needs final limit break

[ashen aspen]

Alsace unicorn enterprise Portland laffey Helena

[cloud depot]

shes way better than penny at lb1

[rare coyote]

youre just gonna replace her with like nelson or hood anyway until shes mlb

[grave bloom]

enterprise over hood? i got hood cause i was told she was good

[ashen aspen]

A 2lb Alsace is better than hood

[cloud depot]

shes mlbed soon tm coz event milestone so only 1 bulins left

[rare coyote]

what happened to non-mlb ship bad

[cloud depot]

context

also a good guideline to not trick new players into general advice

[grave bloom]

i got the 2 UR bullins from cruise pass and shop. theres more to get?

[cloud depot]

did u get ur beginner bulin ?

theres another one at 30k at event milestones

[rare coyote]

you say that, and yet this is the first time ive seen anyone pick a non mlb ship over a mlb ship

every time i suggest a non mlb ur over a weaker mlb ship i get corrected and now youre doing exactly the opposite of what ive been told?

[grave bloom]

what milestones are you talking about?

[rare coyote]

event point milestone

[ashen aspen]

[rare coyote]

at 55k there should be a ultra rare bulin available

or was it 30k

[grave bloom]

this thing?

[cloud depot]

depends on their dock soup
and ofc not every1 agrees all the time

[rare coyote]

not that

[cloud depot]

thats normal bulin

[cloud depot]

that but at 30k

[rare coyote]

so it was 30k

[grave bloom]

oh, yeah there she is

[cloud depot]

yea

[cloud depot]

alsace flag

[rare coyote]

in any case you should prio unicorn retrofit, after that do portland and finally laffey

[grave bloom]

what do cats do

[rare coyote]

give stats

[cloud depot]

buff ur fleet

[rare coyote]

its an end game investment, just grab the free cat box daily, open your cat box and then ignore it

[grave bloom]

this is gonna take a bit

my laffy is almost done

[rare coyote]

in case you dont know how to gear
https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/
https://samheart564.github.io/ECGC/equipment

[cloud depot]

gtg work
tldr
use sams equip guide to gear with poverty options
push for d1 in event when it unlocks till then u can push story and/or farm lower event stages in pin and lvl ur current fleet
when d1 unlocks mby we can look for 2nd fleet or at least ships to meet hm reqs
ping again then
good luck

[grave bloom]

whats this thing?

[grave bloom]

thanks, i do not infact know how to gear

[rare coyote]

retrofit blueprint, you get them from hard mode
x-1 is destroyer, x-2 is cruiser, x-3 is battleship and x-4 is carrier

[grave bloom]

i meant the empty socket

[rare coyote]

use a duplicate or a bulin

[grave bloom]

oh ok, thanks

[rare carbon]

right then

for torp stat specifically best ones would be Javelin and Shranui

[grave bloom]

Where do torp stats come from?

[rare carbon]

you can also start working on Saratoga

[rare carbon]

from the ship itself

[grave bloom]

This what I had for my 2nd fleet

[rare carbon]

yeah no

that's garbage

what you'll eventually be aiming for is something like
Mob: Hood, Unicorn, Saratoga, [filler], [filler], [filler]
boss: Nelson retro, Alsace, Enterprise, Portland, Helena, [filler]

I put [filler] in a lot of slots because you don't really have much in the way of good options for now

[upbeat tree]

kagerou at lvl 100 non retro has 487 trp good right ?

[rare carbon]

though for the purposes of clearing the event maps Shiranui and Kagero will take 2 of those slots to meet the torp stat requirements

yeah

honestley missed her the first time

[grave bloom]

So level this up, since this plus my main fleet will have the units I need, just swap them around at a later date?

[rare carbon]

not all at once

if you try all of that it will just die

the trick is to mix ships that you need to level with ones you already have leveled so that the higher level ones can carry the low level ones

[grave bloom]

OK so who should I switch out and lvl first?

[rare carbon]

keep Unicorn, Alsace, Portland and Laffey

swap in Saratoga and Kagero for now

[grave bloom]

Poor enterprise

[upbeat tree]

i zoomed into his enty

[grave bloom]

So get 9-1 to safe (somehow) and then farm?

[upbeat tree]

a little bit sus

[rare carbon]

yes

and you cleared 9-1 already so you can get it down to safe

[grave bloom]

It's okay, I fixed her

[grave bloom]

Just 3 star it?

[rare carbon]

no

[grave bloom]

O

[rare carbon]

reducing the threat level you just need to clear it x number of additional times

there's a little bar that tells you the threat level, tap on it and it'll tell you how many more runs you have until it's down to safe

[grave bloom]

8 runs?
