What content are you doing again?

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 1:57 AM

#

Some questionable choices

#

But why are you dawdling around jn W11

#

You can easily do W12 with what you have

modern fog Jul 3, 2024, 1:57 AM

#

w11-12 push

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 1:58 AM

#

i just got back into the game after like 3 years lmao

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 1:59 AM

#

Well push to 12-4 first

#

And then farm XP for Kearsarge

proper fjord Jul 3, 2024, 2:01 AM

#

you should be able to smoke all the way up to 12-4 pretty easily

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:01 AM

#

Mob: Monarch, Unicorn, Independence, Noshiro, Rikka, Shimkaze

Boss: New Jersey, Enterprise, UvH, San Francisco, Helena, San Diego

#

There's also a few other things that need addressing

#

First off is gear

#

Read Sam's guide in #bot-spam /equip to make sure you're equipping your ships properly

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:04 AM

#

K thanks for the help yall

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:04 AM

2nd, read that and get yourself caught up with how to do research optimally

Research Guide

Goes over the Research mechanics in Azur Lane, including optimal Research Projects to take, and how Catchup / Coin-up work!

#

3rd, do not ever partially limit break URs like this

#

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:05 AM

#

i mean yeah but its more since theres a huge game of gameplay i missed never got to MLB them

#

thanks for the info tho

#

also is sams guide in a thread?

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:05 AM

#

No

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:15 AM

#

shud i use this on von hutten or NJ?

#

this von hutten

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:15 AM

#

wintry river shud i use this on von hutten or NJ?

I use this on NJ

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

Give the Mk7 to NJ

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

bc both fire barrages

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

And give UvH an Mk6

#

They do indeed

#

But that's not the reason why you would use the first gun

#

The first gun is strictly used for desyncing your ships

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:17 AM

#

so not worth for faster proc?

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:17 AM

#

On most ships and scenarios no

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:17 AM

#

Okay thanks for letting me know

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:17 AM

#

It's never used on bossing and only on mobbing

#

Give UvH an Mk6

burnt depot The first gun is strictly used for desyncing your ships

*Desyncing not Designing

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:18 AM

#

makes sense

#

whats the best way to get tech points?

#

roll more?

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:45 AM

#

@burnt depot last question I think before i come back after finishing 12-4 but why does timing matter for main gun and stuff?

#

is it so damage isnt staggered?

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:46 AM

#

let me give you an example

#

say you have NJ and UvH both on a mob fleet

#

and they both fire at pretty much the same time

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:47 AM

#

ye

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:47 AM

#

whoever fires first will overkill the mobs

#

and the 2nd to fire will shoot into the water and do no damage

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:47 AM

#

oooh so we want it to be staggered

#

not at the same time

#

got it got it

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:47 AM

#

in mobbing and to a degree campiagn bossing yes

#

the opposite is true however for things like OpSi bosses

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:48 AM

#

so opsi i shud try to time together and for mobbing and campaign stagger

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:49 AM

#

you could say that

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:49 AM

#

for boss fleet should my BB'S be staggered or timed together

#

cuz ik u answered for mob fleet it should be staggered

#

im assuming they shud shoot at the same time?

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:50 AM

#

kind of

#

UvH off flag gurantees half her salvos will desync from NJ anyway

#

and pre W12 mob waves are not that difficult

#

but also you don't have many guns to be too picky on what you choose to use

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:51 AM

#

true

#

i only have 2 UR gear

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:51 AM

#

all of this is basically just a very long winded way of saying

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:51 AM

#

the mk7 and a torp for shimikaze

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:51 AM

#

wintry river this von hutten

use that on NJ

#

and use one of these on UvH https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Triple_406mm_(16"/45_Mk_6)#Type_3-0

Azur Lane Wiki

45 Mk 6)

Eagle Union BB Gun

#

for now anyway

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:52 AM

#

yeah sorry i ask a lot of questions im sure rn it doesnt rly matter too much

#

bc im still early game

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:52 AM

#

no worries

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:52 AM

#

burnt depot and use one of these on UvH https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Triple_406mm_(16%2...

yee i got a few of those

#

and im looking at my gears and adjusting according to the sam guide

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:53 AM

#

there's no such thing as a bad question and if you're willing to learn and take on advice I'm happy to answer any questions

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:53 AM

#

betttt

#

also is there an updated tier list for ships

#

cuz im not sure if ppl pull events for waifu ships or cuz they r actually good

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:54 AM

#

there's the ECTL

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:54 AM

#

cuz im not sure if i wanna wait for UR event or try to get alvitr cuz idk if she super good

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:54 AM

#

but you kind of have to take it with a grain of salt

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:55 AM

#

https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/home i use this

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:55 AM

#

Alvitr and the rest of the ships from this event

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:55 AM

#

oh yeah same thing LOL

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:55 AM

#

wintry river https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/home i use this

yeah that's ECTL

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:55 AM

#

burnt depot Alvitr and the rest of the ships from this event

are mid

#

unremarkable and outclassed by other permanetly available options

#

I'd save for the next UR event(s)

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:56 AM

#

yep yep

#

is there a guide for saving cubes?

#

cuz isnt there a mission where if i pull once i get a free cube or something

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:56 AM

#

there isn't really guide as such

#

basically what it boils down to when there isn't an event do one light build a day

proper fjord Jul 3, 2024, 2:57 AM

#

daily light pull thats it

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:57 AM

#

yep

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:57 AM

#

proper fjord Jul 3, 2024, 2:58 AM

#

light pool

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:58 AM

#

im guessing since I have NJ already max

#

i just recruit shimano?

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 2:59 AM

#

yes

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 2:59 AM

#

or will they add another permanent UR to pool anytime soon?

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 3:00 AM

#

they will eventually

#

buit the next, Shimakaze, won't have priority

#

and the one after her is UvH who you already have

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 3:01 AM

#

LMAO

#

rip

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 7:54 AM

#

is rikka still good without her special gears?

modern fog Jul 3, 2024, 9:45 AM

#

nope

wintry river Jul 3, 2024, 11:05 AM

#

modern fog nope

shud i just use azusa then?

burnt depot Jul 3, 2024, 1:40 PM

#

wintry river shud i just use azusa then?

Yes

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:39 AM

#

@burnt depot hi again ive gotten to 12-3 but i cant clear all the mobs

#

i can 100% it but im trying to get the 3rd star

#

what world is good to farm exp

burnt depot Jul 6, 2024, 5:40 AM

#

12-1

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:41 AM

#

bc i can beat 13-3 like 1 after 0/5 ammo with my mob fleet but then i need to use my boss fleet to kill the other 4 but then im too weak to kill boss

burnt depot Jul 6, 2024, 5:41 AM

#

Or you could just wait to get the map down to safe

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:41 AM

#

burnt depot Or you could just wait to get the map down to safe

by beating the mobs?

burnt depot Jul 6, 2024, 5:42 AM

#

Okay

#

So maps have this mechanic where after you 100% clear, no 3 starring required

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:42 AM

#

oh yeah

#

i can easily 100% it

burnt depot Jul 6, 2024, 5:42 AM

#

You can reduce the threat level of the map by clearing the stage several times

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:42 AM

#

but i want to get the 3rd star

#

ooo okay

burnt depot Jul 6, 2024, 5:43 AM

#

Which will reduce the amount of damage your ships take

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:43 AM

#

gotcha

burnt depot Jul 6, 2024, 5:43 AM

#

A increase the damage they deal

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:43 AM

#

so 12-1 is good for farming exp?

burnt depot Jul 6, 2024, 5:43 AM

#

It's 20% each at safe in w12 compared to lethal

#

Yes

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:43 AM

#

burnt depot It's 20% each at safe in w12 compared to lethal

wow 20% less damage

#

that’s significant

burnt depot Jul 6, 2024, 5:43 AM

#

12-1 and 12-4 will pretty much be your permanent farming spots

#

Yep

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:44 AM

#

honestly im surpised

#

my lower levels mob fleet can beat 13-3 mob fleet as long as i have ammo

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:44 AM

#

burnt depot 12-1 and 12-4 will pretty much be your permanent farming spots

12-1 is like straight exp and 12-4 is coins and stuff?

burnt depot Jul 6, 2024, 5:45 AM

#

Kind of

#

12-1 is easier and better in terms of XP oil efficiency and cogs

#

Whereas 12-4 is better for coins

#

And XP per run/battle

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:46 AM

#

but a lil but more oil usage?

burnt depot Jul 6, 2024, 5:46 AM

#

Yes

wintry river Jul 6, 2024, 5:46 AM

#

got it

#

thanks for the input

#

imma maybe farm my mob fleet get them to 120 hopefully

wintry river Jul 7, 2024, 7:37 PM

#

@burnt depot is 12-1 or 12-4 better for farming exp for research ships?

burnt depot Jul 7, 2024, 7:37 PM

#

either works just fine

wintry river Jul 8, 2024, 1:21 AM

#

@burnt depot what makes UvH good?

#

i saw one of her abilities is she fires faster but at lesser damage?

burnt depot Jul 8, 2024, 1:22 AM

#

she does good damage

#

having her off flag is just a net increase in damage

wintry river Jul 8, 2024, 1:22 AM

#

oh really

burnt depot Jul 8, 2024, 1:22 AM

#

well yeah

wintry river Jul 8, 2024, 1:22 AM

#

so the damage debuff isnt too bad?

#

cuz she shoots more

burnt depot Jul 8, 2024, 1:23 AM

#

50% faster cooldown and only 45% damage reduction to her main guns

#

not to mention twice as many barrages

wintry river Jul 8, 2024, 1:29 AM

#

@burnt depot ooo so shes more of a barrage BB

burnt depot Jul 8, 2024, 1:29 AM

#

no

#

the extra barrages are just a bonus

wintry river Jul 14, 2024, 12:35 AM

#

wintry river

@proper fjord here r my ships

#

i do swap dorm ships

#

to raise morale

#
