I been playing for a few years and I'm not sure what the best setup I should use for beating these harder challenges. Here's all my level 100+ ships. I have a ton of mats ready for upgrading gear, and I've done some gear setup already, so if there's any gear I specifically need to grab for a certain ship to be better, let me know.
#Help with ch 13+ and hard arbiter in OpSi.
scenic girder
could you show all of your URs and SRs
short flint
Can you not see them?
short flint
Well yea I leave some spots open.
scenic girder
I'd reccomend just getting more dock space and keeping more ships around to be honest
even if you're not a collector 300-400 is about the minimum I reccomend to be comfortable
but that aside
short flint
Well I have all the research ships, so I don't really need to grind for exp anymore.
scenic girder
yeah but there's also fleet tech to grind for
short flint
Yea, I usually get a new ship, hit it to level 70 to max it, then release it.
I'm like level 6+ for most fleet techs.
scenic girder
I'm like level 6+ for most fleet techs.
that's not what I meant
I mean grinding ships to level 120 for the permanant stat bonus they give

https://suchiguma.github.io/guides/chapter-15
https://suchiguma.github.io/miniguides/quick-gear-guide
anyway there's those for W14, W15, gear, gear lab and research focus selection
short flint
Oh I think I know what you mean. Yea I have a lot of those done.
scenic girder
OpSi you'd run something like
Musashi, Alsace, Vanguard, Z52, Plymouth, [?]
Amagi, Shinano, Ark Royal, Edridge, Kazagumo, [?]
Mob: NJ, Unicorn, Independence, Neptune, Bayard, [?]
something like that
short flint
I just finished maxing Bayard, so that works.
Though really I just need to clear the final boss.
scenic girder
I mean you are missing a few key and in some cases recent ships
short flint
I already clear the whole thing monthly.
scenic girder
though November's harbiter is also arguably the strongest/most difficult harbiter
short flint
I haven't tried it in a while, so I wasn't sure what to do.
Man I didn't realize these were buffs to the whole fleet though, thought it was just that ship.
short flint
Yea.
It's just, I realized I don't really have a goal anymore. All the pr research is about done. I can clear Opsi without trying. I've done 12-4 thousands of times for gold and exp. If I don't start moving up to ch 16 or so, I'm probably just gonna stop playing.
scenic girder
it's only up to W15
short flint
Oh I thought it was 16.
scenic girder
and you might be done unlocking ships but you're far from finished with maxing them all
to speak nothing of the gear grind
try setting challenges for yourself as well like one shotting META bosses
and besides, you're still missing a number of key ships for late game
a few of them suprising truth be told
short flint
What key ships could I possibly be missing?
scenic girder
ignoring the non dev 30 PRs
Bismarck Zwei, Lion, Trafalgar, and Implacable would be the 4 obvious ones
short flint
All of my PR are 30, outside of pr7/8
scenic girder
or just keep a lookout for these
basically everyone on this list except the last row
scenic girder
All of my PR are 30, outside of pr7/8
unfortunately as it just so happens those are the 2 that matter the most
or more specifically Nahkimov and Mecklenburg
short flint
Wait, I thought Agir was like, one of the best things ever.
scenic girder
and Gouden leeuw would also be really useful in your case
scenic girder
Wait, I thought Agir was like, one of the best things ever.
nope, got powercrept in her role
short flint
unfortunately as it just so happens those are the 2 that matter the most
I mean, those are super new. Not sure how you can pr30 those already unless you've been grinding those specifically. It used to only go up to pr6 when I started.
short flint
Yea I've been playing way longer than that.
scenic girder
yeah which is why I'm suprised you don't have them finished
take about 5 months max to finish a seaosn eve if you don't spend cubes on researches
short flint
I stopped playing for 8 months.
scenic girder
but anyway, point is, you got a number of holes in your roster
short flint
Alright, thank you. I got what I needed.
