like at the minimum I'd expect your CVs to all be running +10 gold catapults
you have the motivation though, that counts 
please make sure your skills are fully leveled
Hmm,so I should also finish the last 2 skills on Unicorn and Zuihou?
anyway since you're in it for the long haul this is what you should be doing
max the skills of everyone you'll be using
first, work towards unlocking FDG, she'll replace Nelson
Yeah, I think every ship except those two i'm actively using is maxed at least
2nd is if you have Eldridge's retrofit item work towards getting her retrofitted
Sry, is FDG one of the shipyard bb?
yes, from PR2
3rd is to start doing Operation Siren if you haven't already
Oof, just saw shes a DR lol, that means i'll have to get blueprints through research only, right?
i believe you can buy them now (i need a fact check)
no
she's coinable
I'll find out once unlocked
Oh, very nice
I barely realized the PR4 ones weren't buyable like 2 weeks ago lol
also work towards getting AvP and Agir unlocked afterwards
good thing for you they should get coining by the end of the month
Btw, for Elridge, is that forever oiut of my grasp until an event rerun?
I tried searching just now and if I understood its event exclusive?
as of now yes
I just started playing like 4~6 months ago so prob long missed it
Maybe dumb question but
Would it be dumb to take away my boss fleets gold catapults for my mob team?
Would that make a huge difference in their survivablity?
i dont think survivability wise, but it will reduce their damage significantly
from my experience, 14-3 was harder for me than 14-4. youre really building to beat 14-3, once you do that you should be fine
at this point you really should have enough gold cataoults for everyone
that's basically a prerequisite
Hmm
if you don't have at least then you're lacking in a whole host of other areas
What map was I supposed to be farming for them?
Oh joy, I have enough to craft 1 lol
its a start
Yeah, iunno from boxes i've gotten 2 catapults
and I crafted the 2(now 3) I havve
For a total of 5
The only area i've been semi neglecting atm is opsi
But I been playing mostly daily since I joined at the tail end of the Zuihou banner
fallen wings d3 also has droppable steam catapults, according to AL wiki
I'll check it out. Thank you. Is the rest of my fleet in equally dire situation?
Lemme show
yes
I've been trying to piece together what I can based off lurking and that one website that has the guide
not great not terrible
consider this as sort of the minimum you'd really want for W14
and yes I'm saying that Z52 should be your next priority for UR Bullins
your first step should be the phasing out of most of your purple gear. this means guns, torps, aa, planes
by W14 standards it is garbage
Hmm, alright. I'll take to the wiki to see where to start farming these items then. Ty
And jsut to clarify, better off using Bulins on
cut him some slack, if theres a will theres a way
Z52 over the upcoming Yorktown UR ppl were saying to save for?
yes, esepcially if your goal is to clear W14
he can certainly get there
but I don't think there's a need to sugarcoat just how far they are behind
The guide made it seem like 14-2 was going to be the wall too. So was a little surprised 14-3 had me so stumped lol
I don't know what guide you read
eh, fair
by the step up in difficulty from 14-2 to 14-3 is significant
yeah that thing is very dated
Tbf I could've misunderstood
even they don't use it anymore
anyway
Agir's gun, the Staggs and Fire Control Radars all come from research
Musashu's main gun, ASW plane, 155 kais, and Ju-87ds are from the gear lab
Izumo's main gun comes from the prototype shop
everything else is from tech boxes
The gearlab stuff is from opsi, right?
yeah, the further you get into the game the more you have to start specializing your fleets and learning how to adapt to different content
and ECTL focuses very much on more general/easier content
yes
How far into it do I have to go into it to start seeing the gold mats exactly?
I can't tell but I think i'm at
ch3 or 4?
after you beat chapter 5 i think, maybe 4, a global opsi map will open up
don't expect to craft much in your first month or 2 of OpSI
that's why I very deliberately kept light on the Gear Lab Gear
Rip, well should prob be fine. Prob gonna take that long to build the PR2 DR BB you mentioned
Alright, thanks again. Time to start with the purple gear for now
I'd also reccomend giving that a read

this is a more indepth gear guide compared to the AL english tier list, youll benefit a lot from going through it
