Needing some advice on next things to focus on gear lab. Been crafting stuff off the reccomeneded list but not 100% sure what I should focus now. Finished Ch14 and working on leveling some tech ships and support fleet ships for Ch15 as well as Harbitor.

Not gonna bother to post purples, they are all the standard recs and sub gear
And ignore some of the gear I leveled. I played for a month or so before finding these guides and made some bad investments lol
hot raptor
1 more wyvern, more flapjack, get one 457 from protocore, 1 more saiun, 1 more tenrai
and 1-2 more 76AA

Other than those, gear wise looking semi passable for W15? Gonna make some of cheap AA FW190s when I get ready to push it.
twin kestrel
you can certainly try....
empty yarrow
I know its a shitshow lol just trying to square it away some. Been hard grinding opsi for mats and building plates up last couple weeks
twin kestrel
I'd want enough flapjacks to equip all the fighters slots in the surface fleet at least
empty yarrow
When opsi resets off inital shop I should have enough to craft 4 more right away
Total of 6 flaps and that 1 tigercat
twin kestrel
sounds sufficient
empty yarrow
Any other notable gear you think I should focus on other than what mori mentioned?
twin kestrel
not that you could afford
empty yarrow
@hot raptor @twin kestrel got second wyvern, second saiun, 6 flaps 1 tiger. Ill have 457 in a weekish from protocore and one more rainbow ord from second tenrai. Other than working on getting some rainbow 76 AAs, is there any other impact stuff to focus on from gear lab?
twin kestrel
some twin 105s maybe if you can't afford rainbow AA guns
empty yarrow
Got 2 twin105s currently. Are they worth upgrading to the 105kais?
And was looking at Suchis guide for vanguard AA. For the carry ships like Sandy, is it better to run sextuple or twin 76?
twin kestrel
1 sexutple max on your strongest AA slot and then the rest would be rainbow AAs
empty yarrow
Shimanto and Sandy running sextuple already. If RNG favors me I should have 2 twin76s by end of the month. I feel like my vanguard guns are lacking tho
twin kestrel
Upgrading Vanguard guns will probably have the least impact if you're already have something decent
empty yarrow
Eugen and Z46 guns are the main ones im running. Got a couple more one off from events
twin kestrel
Perfectly servicable
empty yarrow
Looks like I'll focus on the AAs. You mentioned twin105s earlier. Was you referring the the base one or the 105kai AA guns?
twin kestrel
The kais
empty yarrow
Are they better overall compared to roombas? Vanguard minus Carry ships ive got on full roombas with staggs backline to speed them up a bit
twin kestrel
I would say yes
empty yarrow
How many would reccomened making?
hot raptor
depends on how many rainbow AA you gonna get
if 2, then 2 105kai as well
since you gonna have 2 sextuple
we gonna just assume mainfleet have staags
empty yarrow
Already got the 2 sextuples. And planning on just gonna go 2 76s for time being till I fill out rest of gear. Ill eventually just start spam making them.
For full fleet layout, stagg for BBs Sex for AA carries and replace roombas with 105kais? Torp dmg ships im running either haze or stagg on them currently like Ibuki Shima and Jintsuu meta
hot raptor
staag if AA isnt an issue on torp ships, but most of the time it's really whatever lol
empty yarrow
Yeah someone said to run stagg/haze on torp focused ships for extra hit stat. Haven't really ran into a AA issue yet tbh, but haven't hit 15-3/4 either
hot raptor
and you wouldnt be using them at there either
empty yarrow
I am using Ibuki currently on boss fleet atm alongside Agir and Sandy, may not be best combo but they held up great so far and honestly best DPS vanguard i can run that isnt a glass cannon till I get some DR5 and up ships to dev30
