Fleet help

[dim plume]

So my main team rn is Helena, Hood, Laffey, Lion, Uni, Lil Agir

But I took Helena out bc she’s maxed

[full cliff]

the only ships worth raising that aren't allocated in any fleets are sanrui nelson with retro

i don't know what u have done to be able to max a vanguard ship before being able to have enough ships for a second fleet

usually people who ask for a second fleet recommendation already have good enough ships when they are at lvl 110

[stoic patio]

Bro took one fleet too far

[full cliff]

i m inclining to level the souryuu and hiryuu prematurely for tech

[stoic patio]

Hmm aurora(niche for Light armor enemies)

Sandy, trafalgar, brs, dead master

Souryuu and hiryuu too i think, they have good 120 tech

[full cliff]

sandy is already in the fleet
trafalgar without bulins is a little bit not good investment

[stoic patio]

If its just leveling then he can do it

At some point he will have the bullins

But not yet, since bis2 rerun is soon

[full cliff]

yeah maybe there is a breather after the jp anni not sure

since after that there is unzen rerun and most likely another double ur at the end of the year

and looks like the person in question has left this conversation

[dim plume]

I just finished lion, that’s why I haven’t upgraded traf

[dim plume]

I did but was told to wait till I get to chapter 12…

[full cliff]

it isn't about chapters
if u have enough ships to level u can start from w9 since u will get commander gated anywayy

[dim plume]

I was still farming the event, just got to w9 like 4 days ago

[full cliff]

for now level nelson souryuu hiryuu and retro nelson

[dim plume]

So this?

[full cliff]

who is that middle ship ?

[dim plume]

Didn’t someone say Sanrui?

Wait wrong one

[full cliff]

this is sanrui

[dim plume]

Oh…

Any other problems?

[full cliff]

ok damage with good tech at lvl 120

[dim plume]

Should I use chang chun?

[full cliff]

also year lvl 125 helena at ch9 is kinda sus

u did something wrong somewhere

[dim plume]

Farmed the event till 50k

[full cliff]

the event is a meme for leveling

[mossy patio]

Is there a need to get Nelson retro'd? He already has Hood + Lion

[dim plume]

I mean they’re both like lvl 120+

So they’re almost capped already

[full cliff]

look at the dock and suggest something

[mossy patio]

wait for bis2 builds

[full cliff]

not that good
yat sen and tai yuan are a better investment but they need a lot of time to be online

[dim plume]

Oh

I have yat sen

[mossy patio]

farming for saratoga wouldn't be that bad I think.

[full cliff]

yeah i know that u have yat sen

[mossy patio]

What chapter are you at currently?

[dim plume]

11-3

I can clear it but I want to build a fleet first

[full cliff]

unironically retro yat sen might have been better than helena there

[dim plume]

…

So switch Portland for Yat Sen?

[full cliff]

but for now just keep saving for sandy

no it is just rushing helena retro does nothing for quite some time

[dim plume]

Oh

I also need 5 golds for roon after I finish monarch

So how many do I need between sandy and yat sen?

[full cliff]

how much is saint louis dev level ?

[dim plume]

18

[full cliff]

put her in the middle with double hp aux

replace nelson with lion

make 11-1 safe first

[dim plume]

Lion is lvl 120+ i just can’t get her higher yet bc no chips

[full cliff]

u know it when the red color changes to green

[dim plume]

What does that do?

[full cliff]

makes the stage a lot easier

[dim plume]

Oh

Shouldn’t I do 10-2 to get Saratoga?

[full cliff]

u can do that too

[dim plume]

Ok

And no yat sen?

[full cliff]

yeah leave yat sen until way later

[dim plume]

Ok

Should I bring ranger? I heard she was really good

[full cliff]

also finishing shipyard ships with the same rarity won't make u able to develop them simultaneously as they share the same discount

[dim plume]

Wait what…

So if I use the free 2 develops on st Louis I don’t also get them for monarch

[full cliff]

so if u are doing saint louis now just keep spending coins on her and don't spend coins on other golden ships like roon and monarch that mentioned earlier

[dim plume]

Ok im just trying to unlock them quickly so I can unlock others

[full cliff]

do izumo while u have souryuu and hiryuu in the back

[dim plume]

So something like this except put Saratoga instead of death master?

[dim plume]

I can’t…don’t have enough ships

So any other changes I should make to my fleet?

[full cliff]

postpone izumo for now then
although u can buy ijn ships from the guild shop but it doesn't matter much

[dim plume]

Ok

[full cliff]

how many exp books do u have now ?

[dim plume]

1403 blue

[full cliff]

k very good
u want to level the ships that u want to raise to 70 before farming
and don't forget the threat level of the stage

so auto 10-2 couple of times and it goes green
get some coins for limit breaking

use the books and start leveling there until u get sara

[dim plume]

Ok

So don’t change death master for ranger

Or hiyruu for someone else?

[full cliff]

in ur position it is better to avoid ships that don't give tech as much as possible

having smol agir is more than enough

[dim plume]

So who should I use instead?

[full cliff]

hiryuu souryuu at least

then there is penny that has rld tech at 120

[dim plume]

Ok I’ll use her ig

[full cliff]

do u have enough gear for 2 fleets ?

[dim plume]

Yes

But not good gear

[full cliff]

since u are running meme gear u want to have purple tool box on each of the mob vanguard

it is ur only source of healing

[dim plume]

I don’t have any tool boxes

I have 1 purple one and 2 blue ones

[full cliff]

[dim plume]

That are on my main fleet

[full cliff]

use unicorn with souryuu and hiryuu

[dim plume]

So put Uni in flag?

[full cliff]

yeah

can u go to the depot
click on equipped on the bottom left
and screenshot everything except the grey gear ?

there is this one but the button is off #1382483827078992014 message

[full cliff]

k sec

[dim plume]

I also have a few craftable purples

[full cliff]

there is a common mistake that someone can make is to focus leveling 1 piece of gear and neglect the others
for example having 1 gold cata at 8 and 1 purple at 0 is worse than having both at 6

[dim plume]

Ok I just didn’t know if something was worth upgrading so I upgraded the golds as I was told to get them

[full cliff]

what level is long island ?

[dim plume]

97

But not retrofitted

[dim plume]

Should I use her instead of souryuu/hiryuu

[full cliff]

this might cost u a lot of coins to make

this is what u will use when u already have reduced the threat level to green

[dim plume]

Ok tysm

[full cliff]

also ignore the helena augment i didn't notice it there

[dim plume]

Wait why don’t a lot of them have AA guns?

[full cliff]

fill it with anything that u have

notice that u have to craft a barracuda a helldiver and some catapults

that is why this is gonna be expensive

u want them all at least +6

all the gear

[dim plume]

Ok

What about Portland’s gun

[full cliff]

doesn't matter fill it with anything that u have

[dim plume]

Ok

[full cliff]

the enhancing levels are alover the places because this tool keeps them even after u wipe the slots
i used an old fleet slot and replaced the ships and it was for bossing or something

that is why u see a lot of +11 and 13

ignore the enhancing levels and when u want to go above +10 ask first

also using unicorn might be not necessary so observe and adapt based on the situation

[dim plume]

Ok

Tysm

Also who should I remove when I get Sara?

[full cliff]

ideally

[dim plume]

Ok and move her back to fleet 1?

Or start fleet 3

[full cliff]

most likely u won't need her anymore until u want to push more campaign

[dim plume]

Oh ok

[stoic patio]

Btw just something i think is better

Switch out dead master with souryuu
