eager bramble
lets do it here easier
ok so we need to find 3 USS to grind for anchorage
can u filter USS vanguard to make this easy?
summer crow
Sandy, Helena, Pheonix
mental ginkgo
ty for the assistance btw!
eager bramble
mob can be zwei (middle) indep + illustrious
Portland, phoenix, san diego
mental ginkgo
in that order i imagine since sandy should have more tankiness due to lvl diff
eager bramble
or listen to cheeky 
summer crow
in that order i imagine since sandy should have more tankiness due to lvl diff
kinda, Pheonix goes middle though
mental ginkgo
gotcha
eager bramble
I was thinking monarch DoY unicorn
portland, sirius, yuudachi for boss
summer crow
may as well do Roon Muse instead of Portland
eager bramble
let unicorn carry boss fleet since u dont have many carriers and I dont want red air 
summer crow
but yeah
eager bramble
may as well do Roon Muse instead of Portland
was thinking save her for agir grind 
summer crow
fair enough
mental ginkgo
why not enterprise, doesnt fit the scheme?
eager bramble
well zwei and sandy should carry mob tbh and u shouldnt have any issue
give her hpfcr (the yellow rarity radar)
give your vanguard ships all roomba AA (twin 113)
indep has natural stagger 
so u will be fine
ashen plover
tenzan 
eager bramble
tenzan is fine tbh
it is a decent transitional 
ashen plover
if there is a tenzan then the rest of the gear might be 
mental ginkgo
oh my gear is for sure bad
eager bramble
@mental ginkgo
might want to prep agir cdc as well btw
put FdG + tirpitz in dorm first floor free slots if u have any
eager bramble
oh my gear is for sure bad
start working on opsi
mental ginkgo
This it?
eager bramble
and put your research focus on 5
ashen plover
the question is
do u know how to pick the researches ?
mental ginkgo
ive "glanced" at the tier list sammy has in his guide of perferred research choices, but so far i have just avoided cube researches and the super long 12+ hr free researches
im slapping on what i can gear wise for the new mob/boss fleet additions as we speak as well
mental ginkgo
<@173695854345977856>
might want to prep agir cdc as well btw
put FdG + tirpitz...
i have both floors and 5 slots, 10 total
eager bramble
nice
then put mob in floor 2 and 1 in floor 1 then u have 4 spare slots
put FdG and tirpitz there
lets prepare them for agir grind
u have a lot of KMS ships her grind should be easy
then u can work on hakuryuu after (if u can manage her tech requirement 
)
mental ginkgo
still learning abbreivations. FdG is freidrich right
eager bramble
yes
ashen plover
ive "glanced" at the tier list sammy has in his guide of perferred research choi...
now that u have reaches w12 u should avoid 4 types of researches
1- common they don't ask for anything
2- complete commissions
3- gear boxes
4- complete chapters
1 is the worst and 4 is the least worse
when u gear focus u take
Q the higher time is the best except the ul one 30min then the ones they ask u to scrap gear
ship focus is always faces D then G
always pick the lowest time possible unless u are going to close the game for a long time u can pick the higher ones like 5h D and 4h G
they cost a lot of coins
mental ginkgo
nice
then put mob in floor 2 and 1 in floor 1 then u have 4 spare slots
put FdG ...
yep leaves 2 slots free in xp floor
mental ginkgo
now that u have reaches w12 u should avoid 4 types of researches
1- common they...
lowest time possible, take Q missions if focusing gear, D > G for ship focus
mental ginkgo
ah i see the edit properly
ashen plover
how many cubes do u have ?
mental ginkgo
ul?
mental ginkgo
how many cubes do u have ?
161
ashen plover
yeah u might want to skip the ship ul then because they cost cubes
mental ginkgo
ah i c
you all are like blowing my mind rn. this was the type of direction i was looking for ❤️
eager bramble
well the priority is shipyard, research and opsi now
dont sleep on opsi
and make farming smooth
if u struggle ping us
ashen plover
we can still dig in in the shipyard
eager bramble
let the poor man rest 
mental ginkgo
ive been cracking at it, before i stopped playing i did complete it, cause i had the option to spend 5k oil (didnt)
also yes i do have the tech req for agir
im severly low on tech fo rhakuryuu. 578/950
eager bramble
I meant for haku
ik u have enough for agir
she costs the same as FdG
eager bramble
im severly low on tech fo rhakuryuu. 578/950
we can fix that later
mental ginkgo
eager bramble
actually u can dorm hiryuu and souryuu if u have em
with tirp and FdG I mean
that is 4
mental ginkgo
yep yep, i have them and their metas. both are in their 80s
eager bramble
get them to 90-95 then dorm other IJN ships to level 70 so u can limit break them for tech
preferably not gold ships
unless they are really good
mental ginkgo
fair, since gold bulins are not as many as epics
well i have opsi and a mill USS xp to earn. Ill ping here if i have questions. I have teh tier list site for gear suggestions if needed
ty again!
eager bramble
np good luck
ashen plover
well i have opsi and a mill USS xp to earn. Ill ping here if i have questions. I...
what is this tier list web site ?
eager bramble
think he means ECTL
the gear rec is fine there as long as u read the descriptions
also btw tip dont upgrade gear beyond +10
come back and ask before u use gold plates
also before u invest UR bulins
imo for now keep UR bulins for implacable
she is rerunning next week most likely
also btw forgot to mention
grab sandy augment when u have enough gold
but priority for gold is MLB > awakening to level 120 (if needed) > shipyard coining > research
summer crow
JP patch notes already confirmed her rerun for the next update
ashen plover
i already told him that 
mental ginkgo
sorry was on my work break, https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/main/bb
i have two ur bulins
mental ginkgo
grab sandy augment when u have enough gold
im 0 on gold augs atm, but will do
mental ginkgo
but priority for gold is MLB > awakening to level 120 (if needed) > shipyard coi...
you say if needed? isnt chap 12 capped?
@eager bramble just reliezed something, any tips for clearing SP and EX. havent cleared them yet, and you have already been so helpful as is
for the event
ashen plover
sorry was on my work break, https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/main/bb
it is better to not follow it
i tried when i started and it is kinda not a beginner friendly or i might be on a massive skill issues
mental ginkgo
understood, sammys guide still reliable thou?
ashen plover
yeah way better
mental ginkgo
think he means ECTL
the gear rec is fine there as long as u read the description...
wont be worrying about that for a hot minute
ashen plover
did u clear d3 ?
mental ginkgo
yes
ashen plover
are u unable to clear the sp ?
mental ginkgo
yes, it would be the boss that did me in, the mobs were nothing
ashen plover
are u 1 or 2 fleeting ?
mental ginkgo
2
ashen plover
can u show the sp fleets ?
mental ginkgo
those were the fleets i used to clear d3 with as well, so i assumed they would work just fine for SP
ashen plover
well i don't think there is much to do there
the ratio of BB BC vs CV CVL is unbalanced but it is doable
give BZ and monarch the mk6
give port +10 tool kit
follow exactly the red arrows how to move the ships
hood has her aug ?
mental ginkgo
i have no augs for any ships
ashen plover
u don't have better ships ?
ashen plover
although it is kinda late for the SP run since it is the last day but if u want to see if u can clear it go ahead 
mental ginkgo
just want the stickers
ashen plover
try to enhance the gear as much as u can
mainly the mk6 on bz and monarch
and the planes
the rest is whatever
mental ginkgo
zwei is boss team?
ashen plover
yeah
if u want u can reset the boss fight for 
and helena's scan
but imo u won't need them
mental ginkgo
oh i can keep the same setup for unicorn. I c why you were cringe at the tenrai plane i had on her earlier
ashen plover
mental ginkgo
does the order of the aux missles matter?
mental ginkgo
srry yea
ashen plover
tenzan isn't good for mob fights because it locks on 1 target
most of the time the torpedoes will not hit anything
ashen plover
well for a boss fight u can use a converging torpedo bomber but since u have a ryuusei it is better than a tenzan
u can use the ryuusei on enty
if u can't upgrade it then always use the highest level
summer crow
why is Zwei and not Monarch flag
mental ginkgo
monarchs doesnt center i think
ashen plover
is it the same as hood ?
summer crow
yes
mental ginkgo
i already had them switched around
ashen plover
i just saw it 
looks like if it is at the bottom or top half of it will go off the map
mental ginkgo
is the ur event MG not good here?
summer crow
that gun is only good against medium armor
mental ginkgo
ah, another i need to be aware of
ur a saint @ashen plover
i messed up with FS placement since i misunderstood how the ui was set up for that
gotworried when i nearly lost my boss vanguard to an elite mob, but they nearly one salvo'd the boss and won right afte
my 1st limited medal
ashen plover
mental ginkgo
@eager bramble making good progress. Got sandys Aug, and almost done with opsi
eager bramble
Keep it up 
mental ginkgo
@eager bramble is it still recommended to craft the triple 406 in the gear lab first
eager bramble
which one?
the triple 406/50 mle?
I prefer 2 copies from pr3 prints in protocore shop
or u mean the rainbow one?
mental ginkgo
the triple 406/50 mle?
This, finally have parts to craft a good amount of yellows in the gear lab
eager bramble
hmmm
honestly I would get it from prototype shop
bit expensive in gear lab from what I remember cuz u have to craft the prerequisite as well
eager bramble
hmmm
worth crafting at some point
I would try and craft 1-2 wyverns first
unless u have 9 gun designs and spare electronics already
mental ginkgo
Just missing 5 ur plan designs for wyvern
eager bramble
u can convert the selector ones
the ones that have the question mark
mental ginkgo
@eager bramble 60% more xp then Anchorage is unlocked. So far I have swapped out the 1st two ijn ships for two different ones
Gonna be starting agir after this
eager bramble
good job
mental ginkgo
Recommended to dump my coins in getter friedeich running?
ashen plover
10 prints per day for 2.3 months until fs5
mental ginkgo
okay been dumping 3k a day into neptune and fried, so ill double check im dropping 10.
looks like 3k gold is about 10 prints based off this
eager bramble
yep
10 for PR and 10 for DR is 10.2k gold per day
shouldnt be too hard but with events u might want to cut back to 6 per day
depends on your budget
mental ginkgo
seeing as my current fleet has been clearing 12 4 nicely i havent done any gear upgrades. so minus the 20k i dropped on ancorage quest i have 50k. the numerical vaule does help thou, means i got to drop 7k more into Frei in a sec. i finished the opsi boss just now so im manually clearing the hidden zones/strongholds before i start clearing out my loggers
havent dont strongholds yet so excited to do something new
mental ginkgo
@eager bramble @ashen plover im lookin around and seeing that Anchorage is usable at dev 10? Does that mean she doesn't need much invest to perform and can start being used upon reaching that lvl?
ashen plover
use her at dev 25 at least when her skills are more invested in
eager bramble
depends who u have
but like abdou said u can easily get her to dev20-25 and use her then
but if u are in dire need of a tank for your second fleet go for it
she can work I believe at that dev level
with catchup and coining she is easy to max
mental ginkgo
I totally didn't abuse the catchup thing. Just figured out how to properly use it. So now I finally catching the 300 prints for Anchorage
eager bramble
that is usually good
because there is a way to use old catchup (season 1-3) to get protocore for good gear
if u still have it
mental ginkgo
Should I not set it to Anchorage?
eager bramble
no keep that it is fine
early season 1-3 is enough protocore
anchorage is season 4 
mental ginkgo
i apprently used s2 already, but i still have s1 and s3 catch up available
mental ginkgo
you are able to set up more then one at a time?
mental ginkgo
agir unlocked, will be switch to IB fleet for farming now
also it appears that i already had 188 something prints for anchorage already, so i wont need the fully catch up for her. just need 225 of the 300
eager bramble
very nice
u can also buy 10 blueprint for her everyday btw
with 3000 gold
very cheap
mental ginkgo
there is that as well. Seeing as i already have FDR and tripitz in dorm, ima add them and throw roon u back into the mix?
eager bramble
sure
u mean to prepare for agir grind?
eager bramble
yep
well bismarck FdG and tirpitz works if u can MLB tirpitz
put FdG On catchup if u havent already
and max her
triple BB farming in ch12 is a bit hard ngl
do u have the bulins for tirpitz?
otherwise u can use jade it is fine
mental ginkgo
umm let me see,
oh you i c, i thought you could only catch up one ship from a series. didnt know you could catch up all ships of series. your whole protoc gain comment makes so much more sense
so i should put off anchroage catch up for now then?
eager bramble
u can catchup 300 shared between the golds
and 150 each for the DRs (rainbows)
eager bramble
so i should put off anchroage catch up for now then?
sure
u can max her with gold
I think FdG is more crucial
mental ginkgo
as for bulins yes, i have 5 currenlty
and as recommended i havent touched my ur bulins
sitting on 3 of them and 400 points from the event one you get from getting 5k points
trip is now mlb
eager bramble
great
just run her, bismarck and FdG
use a strong vanguard but not max level 120
first part of agir should finish very fast
mental ginkgo
oh
eager bramble
part 2 needs vanguard
mental ginkgo
oh, didnt see that fine print
eager bramble
what vanguard options u have
mental ginkgo
eager bramble
doesnt need to be KMS
show me all
mental ginkgo
eager bramble
portland yuudachi and sirius is good
use them for now
then for part 2 we can switch to this 3
might want to put z23 in dorm for now
put current mob backline in boss fleet
and put sandy + 2 other vanguard in boss fleet
ideally they should not be level 120 but it is fine if u dont have anyone ready for now
mental ginkgo
dropping unicornad and york for illustorious and indepence?
eager bramble
yeah
mental ginkgo
i could run kursk and neptune in boss fleet since they both 100, seems like you want me to avoid having 120 if able correct?
eager bramble
yep
sandy is fine to use because we want 1 carry
actually we could replace zwei as well this way
put another carrier
sandy alone can carry I think
run 1 time with zwei
if too easy replace her with another CV that needs xp
mental ginkgo
why 1 time with zwei?
eager bramble
just to make sure u can do it
if u see it is very easy with her
u can replace her for a CV that needs xp
for me san diego alone can carry but idk if your gear is good enough for that
mental ginkgo
okay ty for making it easier to digest
i thnk my gear is borderline okay
idk if power rating is relatable or not
eager bramble
not really power rating is mostly useless
but I prefer u have 2 carries at this level
maybe later on u can drop 1 carry
for now I think better keep zwei and sandy
mental ginkgo
i c what you mean running 3 bb will be hard
might have to throw sandy on the mob fleet, i dont have enough AA power and thtas whats ripping my backline up by fight 4
mental ginkgo
yea the switch was better, yuudachi and sandy swapped and i was able to clear it just fine with no deaths
mental ginkgo
@eager bramble checking in, ill be done with aigr in about a day or about to finish backline xp and then ill just have Vanguard xp for ib to do. still farming opis as best as i could, did take a 3 day break hence agir isnt done yet. I think we were thinking of workin on Hakuryu next, or atlesat working on getting some key ships lvld for better fleet building
mental ginkgo
Someone in chat yesterday posted some ships i should work on MLB and 125ing if I hadn't already. So gonna work in those and lf to opisirens reset so I can nag my first wyvern
mental ginkgo
Oh before I let you go sorry again, any recommendations for ib vanguard
Its double the req of backline xp
Im glad I can finally drop the triple bb though
@eager bramble
eager bramble
any 3 works
pref already around level 90-100
if not ready try and use cheap vanguards like hipper, deutschland
not worth using gold bulins on sth u wont use later
if not sure post your KMS vanguards
mental ginkgo
So was going to have bl as b.zewi flag unicorn and implacable (need to start leveling her)
Then roon and regen for sure. Unsure the third since they are low level
eager bramble
yeah roon regen and z23 works
z23 might need more levels
put her middle for now
and maybe give her some xp books
eager bramble
yeah but not very high prio
work on other stuff first
actually u can just forget about her
mental ginkgo
Lol, r there priorty retrofits? Also the fleet is handling well despite z23 being lvl 77
eager bramble
Lol, r there priorty retrofits? Also the fleet is handling well despite z23 bein...
Early on yeah
Priority means working on sth that is more useful to you
But if u are casual and chilling in ch12 can do w.e tbh
mental ginkgo
Yea gonna tobmake next goal to move on to chp 13 once I unlock agir. Heard that's a better farm
eager bramble
Not really
It is better later on for cog chips
But tbh it is very minimal
I stayed in 12-4 for 1.5 years
Early on 12 much better
mental ginkgo
Goodness the dedication
eager bramble
