@marsh igloo do it here

for bossing the obvious picks are helena,enty,ark royal and warspite, while unicorn, shouhou, phoenix are more geared towards mobbing. od you want me to build u a mob and boss fleet as an example and tell you why for each ship?

marsh igloo
sonic tree
#

swiftsure is another bossing geared ship because of the debuff she applies

marsh igloo
#

That leaves a few spots open tho, should I just base the fleets off what you said then fill in the blanks?

sonic tree
#

well as raion said on the gph where ships belong mostly comes from their skill

marsh igloo
#

Sounds good

sonic tree
#

a mob fleet u can build rn would be pennsylvania,unicorn,fill in waht u want + portland,laffey,phoenix for example

marsh igloo
#

Ah ok that makes sense

#

So as an example, Laffey would be better for mobbing, right?

sonic tree
#

she doesnt have preference its just more that with time DD's become squishier and could get instagibbed in later boss fights with high burst

marsh igloo
#

Ah ok

sonic tree
#

and a boss fleet btw could be something like warspite/enty/arkroyal biloxi,helena,sirius for example from what u have rn

#

fleet building is actually one of the most important skill to learn in this game

marsh igloo
#

Yeah that’s why I’m trying to learn it now rather than later lol

sonic tree
#

as others said u can supplement yourself with ectl tierlist to help u identify certain strenghts or preffered uses of ships but it should be purely used for reference

marsh igloo
#

Ah ok

#

I’m assuming I’ll need to retro Ark Royal?

sonic tree
#

nah, her and helena's retros have low prio

#

they dont really do that much

marsh igloo
#

Ah ok

#

Thanks

sonic tree
#

they help sure but ships like portland want their retros way more

#

sandy and warspite also have high retro prio but those are really expensive

marsh igloo
#

Is Portland actually that good late game? Cause everyone says so but I stoped using her cause I got Sandy. Now that I’m doing two fleets though I’ll probably use her again

sonic tree
#

she is unfortuently the best non event locked or pr locked ca tank in the game rn

marsh igloo
#

No shot

#

What

sonic tree
#

all better tanks are either from events or prs

marsh igloo
#

Oh you’re talking specifically for tank

sonic tree
#

im talking about her retrofitted version

marsh igloo
#

Oh yeah I guess damage doesn’t really mena anything on a tank position

marsh igloo
sonic tree
#

yes u want to retofit portland even for the newcomers missions

#

as its part of them to retrofit her

marsh igloo
#

Oh I didn’t see that

#

Aight this has been helpful

#

Thanks a lot

sonic tree
#

no problem

#

if u have more questions u can shoot right here or just come later to gph and people will anwser

marsh igloo
#

Cool

#

Actually while I’m here, based on my dock, who’s someone from PR1 I could use in one of my fleets? What’s what’s a spot I could fill

sonic tree
#

well there is an obvious anwser of monarch for boss bb flaship slot, there is Roon if u specifically want a tank that can be used for mob or boss but she kinda got powercrept by newer additions, Ibuki is also a safe bet because she has her nieche in comparison to all other pr1's that doesnt have competition as she is a tankiest torpmeme member

marsh igloo
#

Also ignoring event but including research, who’s a better mob tank than Portland?

marsh igloo
sonic tree
#

but all of those can be used in both boss and mob

marsh igloo
#

Oh yeah I was gonna ask Aegir or Drake? They seem to be peoples favourites but tied

sonic tree
#

and as for monarch vs warspite its more of warspite is better vs dd's and cl bosses as these tend to have a lot of eva and high accuracy helps there

marsh igloo
#

Okay, so far it seems like I may probably have at least one CA in each fleet, so I’ll probably just get both and put them wherever they for more

marsh igloo
sonic tree
#

while monarch has an AP barrage with slow thats good against medium and heavy armour opponents and also helping rest of your backline

marsh igloo
#

Ah ok

marsh igloo
#

Would I ever need both in my main fleet at the same time? Or should I not do two battleships in a boss fleet

sonic tree
#

Option 2. These small portraits in the left upper corner show the chibi version of the ship thats the boss of the map so... just learn all chibis

marsh igloo
#

Yeah no lol

sonic tree
marsh igloo
#

Ah ok thanks

#

Yeh I’m only on world 3 so I think I’m ok for the time being

#

I just want to cover my bases

sonic tree
#

also for late game OP SI is a thing and there u want to have focused fleets of triple BB. triple cv etc but thats a topic for much later i think

marsh igloo
#

Yeah I’m 20 levels away from that lol

#

Aight now I think I’m good

#

Thanks

sonic tree
marsh igloo
#

Well I’m off to try and buy Bremerton before the event ends lol

sonic tree
#

ow and back to PR1 because i didnt say anything about neptune and saint louis

marsh igloo
#

Oh yeah those are the only two I’m able to build rn anyway

sonic tree
#

neptune is a zombie mob tank like hyperpower phoenix but she kinda got most powercrept out of all pr1's unfortunetly

#

while louis is a dps CA that wants to use HE guns and can be used as a mob tank because of blue skill

marsh igloo
#

What’s a zombie mob tank

sonic tree
#

zombie as in she gets a skill that heals her when she is low hp

marsh igloo
#

Also I’m assuming this means go for Saint Louis

#

Ah ok

sonic tree
#

its most usefull for tank mobbers

#

well imo just choose waifu but yeah louis is a good choice

marsh igloo
#

Okok
