vsp help

[hushed grove]

Yes

What help do you need?

Whats the fleets

cause vsp is lvl 100 boss so shouldnt be that hard

[crystal crystal]

I think vsp is easy enough that you can beat it with pure level advantage

[hushed grove]

I think so as well

[crystal crystal]

Easy work then

Saint Louis main tank

[astral fable]

Well most of the time I still can't beat it I've tried many times

[hushed grove]

Run a HE gun on sanrui if possible

[crystal crystal]

First level her skills
Second your main gun is wrong

[hushed grove]

No pr1 HE CA gun?

[crystal crystal]

Actually you can craft a in gear lab for her

Or buy a core gun but I’m against it

[astral fable]

Don't really know what that is and don't know if I have the parts for that

[hushed grove]

Check your depot --> craft to see if you can craft the pr1 gun

[crystal crystal]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/Twin_203mm_(3rd_Year_Type)#Type_3 worst case scenario you can use this gun

poverty

[hushed grove]

That does better than gold eugen gun on sanrui

[crystal crystal]

Should show your backline gears first tbh

[crystal crystal]

Figured

[crystal crystal]

Let’s ignore subs for now shall we

[astral fable]

K I've just got them to help deal damage

[hushed grove]

Autoloader is useless especially on laffey

[crystal crystal]

A lot of work eh

Let’s work on backline first

[astral fable]

K

Should I show what I have for gear

[crystal crystal]

Do you have another F6F Hellcat
That messerschmitt on Akagi is very bad

[astral fable]

Don't have any

[crystal crystal]

For dive bomber, always use

Well if you’re lacking in fighters, how about Seafangs

[hushed grove]

wheres the f4u corsair image newb

[astral fable]

Here's a short video showing the gear I have

But I do have a crapton of purple boxes

At least 70 of each

[crystal crystal]

Open up some eagle boxes

Give Akagi the purple F4U corsair instead of messerschmitt

And replace the avi oil tank aux for gold steam catapult, you have sufficient

[astral fable]

Hold on I can also show the stuff for all equipped gears too

[crystal crystal]

So nothing changes much

[astral fable]

Ok added the gears for akagi tho

[crystal crystal]

Open up some USS purple boxes to try your luck for another

I’ll compile the gear changes for rest

[astral fable]

K

[crystal crystal]

Vittorio: to
to

Z46: to (for now)
Gyroscope to 2nd

Laffey: whatever main gun she’s equipping to
Autoloader to the action report book

I forgot about the carrier pair torpedo bombers
Both can use Tenzan for now

You should work on their skills (seriously) and upgrade your equipments

[hushed grove]

i agree with everything bread said, especially the skill part try and get skills up to at least lvl 8 imo

[astral fable]

Also for the dive bomber did you mean the sb2c helldiver

[crystal crystal]

Yeah

[astral fable]

Ok then I got 1

[crystal crystal]

That’s enough

[astral fable]

Actually 2 the second was on another ship

[crystal crystal]

You have an extra lying in your depot as well

[obtuse wraith]

Which part of the VSP you couldn't push through? You should be able to clear it evenly. Did you try beforehand?

[crystal crystal]

I don’t wanna take it from Essex so

He tried

I’m fixing his gears

the problem are mostly bad gears and underleveled skills

[obtuse wraith]

Forget that Im here then.

[crystal crystal]

Also use 2 fleets

[astral fable]

I wasn't able to beat the boss vanguard died before I could win

[crystal crystal]

I don’t think one fleet is enough

[obtuse wraith]

You MUST use 2 fleets if you do not have level advantage to begin with.

[hushed grove]

he has a slight lvl advantage but no healer is rough for all fights

[crystal crystal]

Shouldn’t one fleet vsp in the first place

[astral fable]

Im currently working on making a second fleet. Main will be warspite, essex and Ticonderoga and vanguard will be Boise, San Francisco, and eldridge

[crystal crystal]

throw them there, let them beat whatever they can
preferably 3 mobs is enough

[astral fable]

Issue is they aren't high enough level

[crystal crystal]

better than nothing

Move Akaga pair there to help them

[astral fable]

It's not even just that they lower the average level too low

[obtuse wraith]

oh god

[crystal crystal]

[obtuse wraith]

Can you open your whole dock list?

We'll see what we can do

[astral fable]

Yep

Boise is fully limit broken BTW

[crystal crystal]

Gah

mobs: Akagi-Kaga:Boise-Z46
Boss: VV:Saint Louis-Laffey
Enough to enter?

i think you’ll have to manual

[astral fable]

That's what I've been doing in terms of manual

[obtuse wraith]

That is guranteed to be manual and... I am pretty sure he's fucked.

[crystal crystal]

Mostly level lock issue

[obtuse wraith]

If he splits his main fleet, they cant even clear the mobs in the first place.

[crystal crystal]

I’m not sure if he can even enter

[obtuse wraith]

yeah naw- i would give up imo

spend a good buckload of time leveling them up, you have no choice

[astral fable]

Would eugen be able to make things a bit better

[crystal crystal]

Eugen can replace Boise to pad level i guess

[obtuse wraith]

You can Eugen solo with 3 good back lines but your other fleet will be extremely weak.

[crystal crystal]

He only has 3 good backliners

For now

[obtuse wraith]

Yeah naw- sorry

[crystal crystal]

Actually Portland is available

Replace Boise with Portland

I think you can enter this map

[astral fable]

I used to have amagi chan fairly well leveled but wasn't able to get the points

[crystal crystal]

[astral fable]

Also portland has no gears

[crystal crystal]

Either way you just use your mob fleet to clear all 7 fights
Then the boss fleet to beat the boss

[obtuse wraith]

They are your meat shields.

[crystal crystal]

It’s easy to gear Portland

[obtuse wraith]

You need to use as much as you can.

[crystal crystal]

main gun can be the discarded gun from Saint Louis

aux gun

AA whatever

[astral fable]

Saint Louis doesn't currently have a replacement main gun

I don't have the gear parts

[crystal crystal]

Toolbox and blue camouflage as aux

[obtuse wraith]

Did you open all your boxes?

[astral fable]

Yep

Well all the eagle ones

[crystal crystal]

You use this gun on her

[astral fable]

So open all the Sakura boxes I have

[crystal crystal]

You have a spare one

[astral fable]

Wait wut

[crystal crystal]

[obtuse wraith]

[obtuse wraith]

There's a gun of that in your inventory.

[crystal crystal]

good luck with vsp
I sleep

[astral fable]

Just found it

[warm loom]

gn bread

[crystal crystal]

You cannot mute a thread wtf

[obtuse wraith]

What do you call a sleeping bread?

Toast.

[warm loom]

just disable notifs

top right

[obtuse wraith]

LAUGH AT MY JOKES!

[crystal crystal]

[crystal crystal]

[obtuse wraith]

[warm loom]

oh on mobile

[obtuse wraith]

just leave then

[warm loom]

oi bread

[crystal crystal]

Actually long pressing on thread name works

[warm loom]

press thread name

[crystal crystal]

Thanks

[warm loom]

and it shows menu

[astral fable]

What was the best 2 fleet comps again for me

Cuz I'm looking back and I can't figure out exactly what it needed to be

[obtuse wraith]

The only way I can see fit is that you need to split your fleet to not get ammo burnt. My assumption is that both of them were helping you to change your gear to have better damage output.

IMO, it is too soon for you to enter VSP because you simply have 1 fleet of 100s

Which is.... very tough.

[obtuse wraith]

Oh wait. Level 105 average already?

I am pretty sure you cant even suvive the 2nd/3rd battle with any of your fleet.

[astral fable]

I've made it to the boss consistently

Best I've done was eliminate 1 of the bosses and get extremely close to beating the other but then my vanguard died

Think I had sub help tho

[obtuse wraith]

What was the HP of your other vanguard?

Half? Full?

[astral fable]

Leffey and z46 were at half and Saint Louis was full

[obtuse wraith]

Who was the last one that died?

Sant Loius?

[astral fable]

Saint Louis

[obtuse wraith]

Then you can cheese one way.

give me 10 seconds

[astral fable]

Also I have a prinz eugen at level 90

[obtuse wraith]

You see on the side of the screen, there's the icons the shipgirl, right?

[astral fable]

Yeah

[obtuse wraith]

When they are under a certain HP threshold, there's that tinker icon; Right?

[astral fable]

Yep

[obtuse wraith]

or the wrench.

You can fully heal a ship for 100 gems, but the first attempt is free.

Please do double check it before clicking it.

[astral fable]

I think I've already used it and I have no gems

[hushed grove]

Fully retrofit portland?

[obtuse wraith]

Okay, I can't help you no more. Im out of ideas.

[astral fable]

I'll try

May not have the money

[obtuse wraith]

46k coins.

[hushed grove]

All you need is modernization you can skip the optional ones

[ember tundra]

this is ?

[obtuse wraith]

tldr; He wants to clear VSP, but having some trouble.

[ember tundra]

u mean the event sp stage?

[astral fable]

As it turned out I had already added a lot of things to the portland retrofit tree for those beginner challenges

And was able to finish it easily

[obtuse wraith]

nonono there's a VSP stage that appears after clearing all SP1,2,3,4.

[obtuse wraith]

Now try again.

[astral fable]

Also should I add any extra ships to the boss fleet because I can add either eugen or aquila

[hushed grove]

Add aquila to fleet with VV

[astral fable]

And to clarify about this attempt that was when I had my fleet together with before the gear changes

[ember tundra]

yaya i mean that sp with 800 points

[astral fable]

Any specific gears to use for her

[obtuse wraith]

For now, you try pushing by splitting the fleets. If you still can't do it, Combine all your best ships into 1 and push. Hard. And hope for all the best.

[obtuse wraith]

Yes.

[hushed grove]

Not really just normal CV gear
Run her similar to akagi/kaga

[ember tundra]

try get some more cvs in fleet?

he can get better status with higher air control i think

[astral fable]

I will show you here storm all the ships I have

In the replied message

[ember tundra]

videos kinda lag for me LOL

btw, next time u can try check the ships via secretary section, it gives better view compare with dock

[astral fable]

Ah

[obtuse wraith]

Naw, Its the quality of the video.

Its like 70MB on like what- 20 seconds clip?

[ember tundra]

i think i had a poor connection compare with you guys haha...

[obtuse wraith]

[astral fable]

I just out of blue aux gear parts

[ember tundra]

lol

[astral fable]

I had like 200

[ember tundra]

aux is burned fastest

[astral fable]

Hey should I show the officer cats I have

If those will help

[ember tundra]

meow give a little boost only

[astral fable]

Oh thought they were more useful

[ember tundra]

the key in this event is let those ldols retreats as fast as possible

[ember tundra]

depends on which ships you are using

diff cats boost diff ships with diff position

[astral fable]

One sortie and my ships are not doing well

Kagas at half

[ember tundra]

try to move your subs for assist?

[astral fable]

2nd sortie kaga still at half and I'm gonna move the subs

Also any formation I should use

[ember tundra]

kaga hurts via enemy suicide squads

?

[astral fable]

I'll show you

[ember tundra]

i think u should try boost the airspace

[ember tundra]

this formation is best on all role

while round type formation for anti ait

*air

[obtuse wraith]

Unless those are maxed, I dont see the importance... yet.

[obtuse wraith]

Yeap. You are screwed.

You should just put all the ships in 1 fleet and push and pray.

Or get good on dodging.

[astral fable]

Indy bout to die

[ember tundra]

Try increae your airspace value

*increase

[astral fable]

Can't any other ships will lower level too low

Average level

[obtuse wraith]

Just retreat and form into 1 full fleet and push and pray.

That's all you can do now.

Either that, since you have a buckload of oil.

Go train your other ships to higher level.

[astral fable]

Portlands almost gone

And to level grind any tips

And is Helena meta any good

[ember tundra]

abit hard...

7-2 is good for resources

12-2 u can try,

[astral fable]

My furthest map is 7-3

[ember tundra]

but only hit 3 middle and retreat

[astral fable]

I can get further tho

[ember tundra]

ouch lol

[obtuse wraith]

7-3.... ugh.

[ember tundra]

try 7-2

[obtuse wraith]

yeah.

[astral fable]

Only reason I haven't gone further is my own procrastination

[ember tundra]

either 1+2 or else

and put those u wanna training in dorm

when fatigue above 120 , it give extra 20% exp boost

this is the keys of lvl grind

[astral fable]

Here's the 2nd fleet I'm trying to make

[ember tundra]

u can try

if u are lvl grind on 7-2, dont full force 3+3

it wasted oil compare with exp

[astral fable]

?

[ember tundra]

i mean the formation

SF in 2nd position for mid heal, 3rd position for maximum output

[astral fable]

Also I have no proto bulin where can I get more

Or best way to gain more

Cuz Boise is full limit broken eldridge and essex arent limit broken and warspites been limit broken twice and Ticonderoga once

[obtuse wraith]

Exercise, Weekly questions.

[ember tundra]

bulin? exchange via pvp shops

no recommended via medals, unless u have tons of it

[astral fable]

179 medals

[ember tundra]

too less, tbh lol

[astral fable]

Also just found out how much merit proto bulin cost

[ember tundra]

??

[astral fable]

15000 is a lot

[ember tundra]

u will have much merits in late game

[astral fable]

I only have like 12000

[ember tundra]

[obtuse wraith]

Spam then before each reset.

On average you should be getting 1000~1200 merits a day.

that's 2 golden bulins a month. ish

[ember tundra]

^^

[astral fable]

Thx BTW sorry for late reply I accidentally muted the thread while trying to reply

[hushed grove]

Shes good

You have enough time to get all crystals

Assuming you do your 2 summons and 3 support daily

[astral fable]

Should I use her in my 2nd fleet

This is the current 2nd fleet

Hey so is the big training commission worth it

[hushed grove]

She replaces eldridge yes

Eldridge isnt used that much nowadays since she's gimmicky

[hushed grove]

Yes if you are away from the game
Like for example i always send one before i sleep

[astral fable]

Ok so what should I equip my 2nd fleet with

[obtuse wraith]

Equip with HE based weapons where you can check on each equipment.

[hushed grove]

Lemme direct you to https://imgur.com/a/TNpH1rL

Its a lotta reading

[obtuse wraith]

Yes, use that.

[hushed grove]

But scroll to find the section of equips you need

[astral fable]

K

[obtuse wraith]

@astral fable #bot-spam message

Or this.

[astral fable]

So other than that any tips on getting iron blood tech points for fdg

[ember tundra]

grinding

[astral fable]

What maps or other things should I grind on for that

[ember tundra]

7-2?

tech points got 3 stage for each ships

1. obtain the ship
2. mlb the ship
3. lvl 120, and unlock additional stats

[astral fable]

Well where should I go to get more kms

[hushed grove]

Divergent chessboard war archives

Check wiki for drops

Last thing you want is to be grinding for dupes you already have

[astral fable]

Thx

I have now learned that apparently portland is pretty good. But I also just really don't like her personality (and the fact that you constantly get her from building)

[hushed grove]

Portland is the best not PR not event locked boss tank in the game and has been ever since her retrofit

[astral fable]

Do you know where I can find info on aux guns for ships

[hushed grove]

Check https://slaimuda.github.io/ectl/#/home

Tiering is irrelevant just click on a ship for their optimal gears

If you combine this TL with the imgur i sent above you got all you need for AL

[astral fable]

Thx
