Capricorn Extreme Challenge

[dusky spire]

Can there be substitutes for CL guns?

[glossy pivot]

@haughty prawn

[dusky spire]

I have High end BB's, but I do not have neither Harbin nor Mogador upped to 125, yet.

[glossy pivot]

I mean CL gun should not be too important other than the CL gun on ply

[haughty prawn]

you wnt a gun around that rld time

and more pellets the better

[dusky spire]

Can I equip DD guns on BB's, then?

[haughty prawn]

45 fp guns

[glossy pivot]

I haven't done the challenge yet nor I am enticed to do so, alpha will help you

[dusky spire]

Can I use Helena instead of either Harbin or Mogador?

[haughty prawn]

any cl gun with similar rld

[haughty prawn]

best to stick to the guide

you need fast shooters'

[haughty prawn]

do you have at least 1 q152

[dusky spire]

Yes, on Plymouth

[glossy pivot]

one thing you can do is trying to look at the wiki and see the pellet count and cooldown on the guns

[haughty prawn]

tashkent

is a good option

if not mog

[dusky spire]

However, neither Mogador nor Harbin are upped to 125 yet.

[haughty prawn]

are they at least 120?

[dusky spire]

No

[haughty prawn]

if you want you can raise them

you have a month to do this challenge anyways

[dusky spire]

Is Fancy good for this challenge?

[haughty prawn]

no lol

i would not run fancy

[dusky spire]

Mogador needs to be fully upgraded, right?

[haughty prawn]

120 might be workable

[dusky spire]

I do not have either Mogador Max Lim Break, yet.

[haughty prawn]

use tashkent

[dusky spire]

I will build Mogador, then...

[haughty prawn]

show your dock

all your UR's limit broken and non limit broken

mogador may not be the best option for you to max

[haughty prawn]

the sheer amount of ship copies is concerning

but anyways,wheres your z52

[dusky spire]

Not yet acquired

[haughty prawn]

well she and rumey will take prio over mogador

if i may ask, why so many copies of ships

[dusky spire]

Look to fill the dorms and secretary slots with the same ship (Musashi).

[haughty prawn]

interesting

[dusky spire]

I simply simp Musashi.

[glossy pivot]

how many UR bulins do you have in shop

I know some old players have lika a milion of specialized cores

[dusky spire]

Sorry, it is 0 now.

[haughty prawn]

its hikari

[plucky plume]

mogador, san diego, kazagumo (CV only), plymouth, scylla, curlew (CV only), helena, emden (double dd), harbin, laffey II (CV only) are the vanguard choice

[dusky spire]

Can I go with Plymouth Helena and San Diego, then?

Harbin is still possible, but I need some time to build.

[haughty prawn]

youre gonna have to run a pretty fast gun on sandy

[plucky plume]

yes. stay as close as possible to sushi's guide for their aux because it's very relevant

[dusky spire]

My fleet formation will be [Bismarck+Soyuz+Alsace],[Plymouth+Harbin+San Diego].

[glossy pivot]

that looks like Mori's

[dusky spire]

For this formation, is there anyone that can replace Scylla?

[dusky spire]

This is Mori's yes, I apologise for not tagging his pic.

[glossy pivot]

oh there's his name there

[dusky spire]

Whom can I replace Scylla?

[glossy pivot]

tashkent might work

[glossy pivot]

everything listed here actually

[glossy pivot]

@sullen juniper @forest scaffold
OMG IM SO SORRY MORI

[timber jackal]

?!

[glossy pivot]

[dusky spire]

@sullen juniper @forest scaffold from this one.

[glossy pivot]

can we even tag people

I wonder

[sullen juniper]

holy dupes

[dusky spire]

Should be as long as those are fine for being tagged.

[sullen juniper]

oh so you have alsace

oh yr nakhi isnt dev30

[dusky spire]

I do have Alsace, but I will need like very fast firing Van.

[sullen juniper]

wait im confused, you cleared it already

[dusky spire]

That is not me

[sullen juniper]

ah

[dusky spire]

I used it as another reference

[timber jackal]

your ply not dev30 is kinda ripbozo

what other vanguard option do you have

[sullen juniper]

could try yorkii kear alsace...?

[dusky spire]

san diego, kazagumo , helena, laffey II

[sullen juniper]

what vanguards do you have

do you have harbin or ddg

[dusky spire]

I do but still underleveled.

I do have DDG 125

only one

[sullen juniper]

which

[dusky spire]

An Shan

Harbin is still underleveled, nowhere near 120

[timber jackal]

can give sandy helena anshan a try i guess?

[sullen juniper]

could try yorkii kear alsace/enty ply ddg helena i guess...?

[timber jackal]

just go full BB

[dusky spire]

Right now, the problem is I tried with Laffey+Helena+Plymouth, and Van. is vanished.

In the last minute, the vanguard died

[timber jackal]

you couldnt break the shield i guess

[sullen juniper]

lemme test some comps rq

[timber jackal]

laffey kinda sucks here no?

[dusky spire]

1 minute with last 10 HP bar left

It is very close

[sullen juniper]

yr cats are bad right

[timber jackal]

yeah that sounds like you cannot break the shield consistently

[dusky spire]

lv 30 BisCat and lv30 Bishamaru

but the perks are bad, yes

[timber jackal]

go Every+Drake, Zwei Soyuz Alsace

unless you missed the tempesta cats

[dusky spire]

I do have them, but still underleveled

[timber jackal]

[dusky spire]

The cats are only lv18

I mean tempesta cats

[timber jackal]

cant powerlevel them?

unless you have better BB cats already

[dusky spire]

The cat dock is lik 41 /40

[timber jackal]

💀

[dusky spire]

I do have multiple BB cats standing by

[timber jackal]

like waiting for rerolls or what

ahaha

if you dont plan on rerolling them just feed them into every and drake

[dusky spire]

assigning them to every fleet and look for good perks

but yeah, I am still experimenting on cats

[timber jackal]

if they dont come with perfect talents, then every drake are your best cats

no joke, but only the best cats are better than every

you're better off using them than leaving them unleveled, and using subpar cats

[dusky spire]

I can feed some lv30 cats to Drake, then

There are still available

[timber jackal]

how close is your ply to dev30?

[dusky spire]

Nowhere, only dev20

[timber jackal]

unlucky

[dusky spire]

It is because I do not have many HMS ships since I kind of don't like them

and none of my cats are from Royal Navy...

[sullen juniper]

i need to unlock hard mode this is gonna take a bit

[timber jackal]

[sullen juniper]

also i just realised katsu is med why would i bring alsace

[dusky spire]

take a bit, surely

[sullen juniper]

ive cleared it last year

[sullen juniper]

surely it wont take that long this time

[dusky spire]

For you, definitely

[sullen juniper]

that comp should work yea, but yr harbin and mogador not usable

do you have afct?

the rainbow fire control table

[dusky spire]

Only one

[sullen juniper]

thats fine i only have 1 too

sandy helena an shan seems to have enough dmg

[timber jackal]

[dusky spire]

lv30 Drake Pirate cat is ready

[sullen juniper]

im pretty sure drake is weaker than sandy

[timber jackal]

the cat

[dusky spire]

I mean the cat

[timber jackal]

[sullen juniper]

oh

i was about to start cooking drake

oh my nitro just expired

[dusky spire]

I do not have the shipgirl drake since I have less HMS ships, so you can forget it.

[timber jackal]

[sullen juniper]

shes shit anyways

not worth grinding

[dusky spire]

I only bring Plymouth to do specifically this.

[sullen juniper]

my ply is like completely maxed so im opting for sandy instead in my testing

and it looks like i can afford to run dmg auxes

[dusky spire]

Are you using BB's in your test run?

[sullen juniper]

im using the comp i suggested earlier, soy kear yorkii

[dusky spire]

Soyuz Kearsarge Yorktown?

[sullen juniper]

yep

katsu moves a lot

[dusky spire]

A CV, to be expected

[sullen juniper]

fastest cv ive encountered in a long time

[glossy pivot]

[sullen juniper]

im almost done with normal difficulty

[haughty prawn]

[sullen juniper]

i almost forgot, my tech is mostly cv rld so dont worry about tech being unrelatable

[dusky spire]

As long as your planes are not like otherworldly, I can follow

[sullen juniper]

im using a hvar 2 bf109g and a tenrai

all +13 except one hvar

[timber jackal]

hvar

[sullen juniper]

i meant bf109g

im kinda braindead atm

[dusky spire]

I only have bf109g as my only available planes other than rainbow ones

[sullen juniper]

er

kear needs a hvar, unless you have an la9

[dusky spire]

I do have one hvar, my bad

[sullen juniper]

do you have bubble bullet aux from ryza

[dusky spire]

no

[sullen juniper]

do you have an oxytorp

just one will do

[haughty prawn]

Just tell them to send depot

[dusky spire]

I do

[sullen juniper]

its my last gear question

[dusky spire]

If you mean rainbow oxytorp, I have 4

and 2 gold oxytorp

[sullen juniper]

more oxytorp than me

[dusky spire]

It is more about efficiency, in the end, though

[sullen juniper]

i didnt grind hard mode for like a year thats why i dont have a pile of core

[dusky spire]

For now, I am like play Azur Lane rarer and rarer, these days

I only look to beat like only this challenge

For BB cat, do you recommend Antenna or Takemaru?

[sullen juniper]

im not sure which is better

ive always used drake + bis

[glossy pivot]

takemaru's not a bb cat

you can do /cats in bot spam and read the guide

[sullen juniper]

this seems to kill with average luck

the gear levels are exact to what i used

[dusky spire]

For Kearsarge, how about Flandre's gun?

[sullen juniper]

stuff like the twin 57 is not needed, sexy/roomba will do the same

[sullen juniper]

she cant use it

she can only use triple 406 mk6, triple 406 mk7, twin 457 and soy gun

she has a gun requirement for either eu or np gun

[dusky spire]

For Yorktown, it is better with Tenrai than Skyraider?

[sullen juniper]

tenrai syncs for longer than skyraider

and has higher hit rate

you can try skyraider and see if it kills faster though

[sullen juniper]

alternatively, drop yorkii and run zwei instead

[dusky spire]

Soyuz+Kearsarge+BisZwei?

[dusky spire]

For Sandy, I don't have the rainbow gun

[sullen juniper]

youre going to be reliant on helena proccing enough to kill before sandy dies anyway

[sullen juniper]

craft it

its ijn gun

iirc its not expensive to make

sandy loses a lot of dmg without twin 100 kai

[glossy pivot]

mog gun is ok too iirc

[dusky spire]

farm in OpSi, it is...

[sullen juniper]

its occupied by an shan

[glossy pivot]

especially on med

oh damn sry

[sullen juniper]

no worries

[sullen juniper]

you lack the mats?

[dusky spire]

2 UR plans that I need to craft

[sullen juniper]

opsi just reset so good luck

[dusky spire]

anywhere else I can get than in the shop?

[sullen juniper]

on another note, why do you raise so many dupes

[dusky spire]

I simp, especially Musashi

[sullen juniper]

arbiter and the file loggers are the only other guaranteed sources iirc

[dusky spire]

so I hunt down the arbiter?

[sullen juniper]

normal mode saves hp so you can just bash your head until it dies

[dusky spire]

It gives 1 or 2?

[sullen juniper]

1

[dusky spire]

100% defeat gives 1, yes?

[sullen juniper]

idr whether hard mode gives one or not

[dusky spire]

Better than going for 50 area...

[sullen juniper]

its been a very long time since i did opsi

[sullen juniper]

stronghold gives 300+ purple token per clear

[dusky spire]

The 1st plan is unlocked after clearing 35 areas

[sullen juniper]

er

youre gonna do everything anyways so

[dusky spire]

Hopefully this is the last for me

[sullen juniper]

this is gonna be hypocritical coming from me but you should do opsi every month if youre able to

[dusky spire]

I do know that

[dusky spire]

For Helena, it's fine not to use 2 reloaders, right?

[sullen juniper]

use the rudder + toolkit

usb drive > toolkit if you have it

[dusky spire]

I do have one

[sullen juniper]

if running zwei give her flandre gun if soy is faster

uh im heading to bed soon so lmk if you need anything

[dusky spire]

Right now, not yet, since I need to conquer 35 areas in OpSi...

[sullen juniper]

gl

[dusky spire]

For BisZwei, what do you recommend?

[sullen juniper]

zwei needs to be faster than soy

if you have plymouth gun put it on helena

[dusky spire]

Glad you mention this

[dusky spire]

I rest my case.

YES!!!

All of this for my fictional crush. This looks good for her, definitely.

[sullen juniper]

congrats

[sullen juniper]

kear underrated

[dusky spire]

Is there any of this gif or png of that frame? so I can put on with the char that I want to.

[sullen juniper]

wdym

the character that appears in your pfp is your leftmost secretary

[dusky spire]

I mean the file to download

[sullen juniper]

er

youll need to datamine that

[dusky spire]

There is none in here. https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Category:Portrait_frames

[sullen juniper]

you can submit feedback in their discord and see if anyone is willing to update the page

wrong channel

[dusky spire]

How do you generate the image, though?

[sullen juniper]

https://renhex.github.io/AzurLaneFleet/

[dusky spire]

[sullen juniper]
