Ramzhlocke Challenge

[gusty wren]

ooof

[steep pecan]

didnt expect w3 to be such a big roadblock

pepsi was quite useful early on right?

[urban pebble]

who tf is pepsi

[craggy otter]

LI

[steep pecan]

papercola

pepsicola

[urban pebble]

meh

[steep pecan]

[urban pebble]

if you need a filler i guess

Helena moved to mobbing a bit for me

gotta carry the deadass

[gusty wren]

Z1 is going to be a huge deal for everyone

[urban pebble]

truly

[steep pecan]

how good is meta fuso?

[urban pebble]

expensive fusou but even worse for early game because you fucking can't level her skill and lb that fast

[gusty wren]

proly our first shot at getting a CL secondary battleship

[vestal wagon]

alright

which season should i focus

[urban pebble]

2

[vestal wagon]

i assume pr3

[urban pebble]

wait

[vestal wagon]

2?

[urban pebble]

pick 2 for catchup, 3 for focus

[vestal wagon]

wait

should i do

/catchup

[urban pebble]

yes

[vestal wagon]

which pr2 is good?

i assume seattle

[gusty wren]

b...but monarch

[urban pebble]

whoever

monarch can be dev by coins

which we have surplus

the 300 prints can go to cores

[gusty wren]

oh yes, you mean research, okay

[steep pecan]

anyone got past 3-2 yet?

[sick crest]

[gusty wren]

duckgun on high levels is good for stopping fireboats

[urban pebble]

i'm clearing 3-3

[gritty steppe]

As of now I'm unable to get the 3rd star in w3

[vestal wagon]

I'm just farming at 2-4

All my ships are low morale

I miss 2nd floor dorm

[urban pebble]

people really have skill issue

[vestal wagon]

How good is ajax?

Juno?

[urban pebble]

glass cannon

juno is hms trash

ajax doesn’t have that good dmg nowadays, glass cannon nickname is from the past

[vestal wagon]

I just realized i can vote using this account too

Hopefully enough to bring saratoga in top 200 :copium:

Faria what is that name

[sharp inlet]

it's fawia

[gritty steppe]

That name is twuly tewwible

[sharp inlet]

i agwee

[vestal wagon]

[flat zenith]

[sharp inlet]

[vestal wagon]

I'm afraid I'm gonna do 1 build because of muscle memory when i see unfinished daily missions

[gritty steppe]

Relatable

[urban pebble]

people just have skill issue

[vestal wagon]

How tf you getting good ships

[urban pebble]

Not even that good…?

[gritty steppe]

Hermes > LI?

[vestal wagon]

i mean vg ships

[gritty steppe]

And I'm just asking a question

How good is Achilles?

[urban pebble]

Wow QUL

Too bad i have no purple plates

actually i do

hooray for weekly pack

[vestal wagon]

which chapter drop purple plates again?

[urban pebble]

6+

[gritty steppe]

6+?

[urban pebble]

Are we ready to farm WCD3 for dork

Options are omega limited in late game

[gritty steppe]

Lol nope, I'm not ready for that

[urban pebble]

Ajax but cuter

[gritty steppe]

Ight

[vestal wagon]

i think i need to stop and actually plan my fleet

man old l2d is weird

[gritty steppe]

First thing I disabled

[urban pebble]

I have too much gold lmao

Kagerou dropped from 3-4, nice

[vestal wagon]

fighting NJ in pvp. very fun

[gusty wren]

calls you virgin tho

...or was it wizard?

oh cool, its only 2 more years

[flat zenith]

[gusty wren]

one fleet to rule them all

[vestal wagon]

finally

[urban pebble]

First rainbow print in this channel

[sharp inlet]

4 saiun tho

[urban pebble]

holy shit 4 saiuns

I didn’t notice

[sharp inlet]

[gusty wren]

epic saiuns

[vestal wagon]

Newbie

Wtf is that luck

[sharp inlet]

[urban pebble]

sorry but I don’t think tenrai will contribute anything useful to this playthrough

[vestal wagon]

Is it better to rush dorm first then dock space

I mean we're not using many dock space to begin with

[urban pebble]

i have 4 dorm slots right now

essential for keeping slaves happy

Are shop ships in each event valid

[flat zenith]

ye

[urban pebble]

jda wins a spot then

[sharp inlet]

that's cheating

[gusty wren]

depends on how available they are I guess?

[gritty steppe]

Somehow I cleared the Collect coins from Merchant mission
Only Oil to go now

[urban pebble]

I think i can just retire the gold purins

Getting PoW is a must right now but can’t deny that purin has very limited use in this challenge

Weaksauce

[gritty steppe]

I collected the free weekly too early

[gusty wren]

bogue at last

I spread my exp packs too thin, now I don't have MLB Nimi

[smoky edge]

Holy fuck y'all have made progress

[gusty wren]

thinking of farming 2-2

[gritty steppe]

Gee how did you get so much guild activity anyway?^^

[gusty wren]

I dont know how it works

[urban pebble]

so do i

either way it’s near 3am lol should i sleep

[gritty steppe]

Ugh I dropped Nimi ._.

[gusty wren]

after MLBing her?

[gritty steppe]

Yep

[gusty wren]

mmmmpfh

[gritty steppe]

Go

[urban pebble]

checkpoint

[sharp inlet]

go sleep newb

[gusty wren]

time to get more tbtsk?

[urban pebble]

twin 120 to be exact, i need a lot

8 twin 120s judging from the fleet pic alone

[gusty wren]

whats the refire rate for those?

[gritty steppe]

How good is Northampton?

[urban pebble]

refire rate?

Northampton is a glass cannon

like a serious paper with some big gun

[gritty steppe]

Hmm ic

[steep pecan]

what to focus for pr?

[urban pebble]

pick PR2 catchup PR3 focus

more info go do /catchup

this challenge is seriously teaching gph vets how to play like a new player

[gusty wren]

I'm using the tierlist's walkthrough

[urban pebble]

it’s fine but not really optimal

[gritty steppe]

For real lmao, can't remember a thing from back then
Though I wouldn't really call myself a gph vet either

[urban pebble]

i’m going by my pure experience and i can prove it’s better

[gritty steppe]

Anyway go newb

[urban pebble]

can’t

Or not yet

[gusty wren]

looks like going 1-fleet is optimal for ch2

also even lvl1 ships can be carried by a good enough vanguard

[gritty steppe]

Good grief low lvl pvp is a pain, 2 minutes of lvl 85 Nimi vs lvl 70 Amagi

[earnest frost]

wait someones doing a nuzlocke

this is an interesting challenge

[vestal wagon]

Sam...

[earnest frost]

in my defense

this thread was started at 4:40 am

and i literally didn't know it existed until now

[gritty steppe]

It's not too late to join us

[winter steppe]

Wa you gonna drive people insane this way

[earnest frost]

ill join

eventually

read status and you will understand

[gritty steppe]

Just don't join Sandy by accident

[vestal wagon]

Sleep at 3 am, class at 8

[earnest frost]

nagami where did your | go

[winter steppe]

Didnt everyone went to Amagi or something?

[earnest frost]

yeah

[vestal wagon]

I forgot to put it

[earnest frost]

i don't have an amagi alt

so im set

[winter steppe]

[gritty steppe]

Except flower

[winter steppe]

damn this challenge getting more interesting by the hour

Makes me want to do it too but I will have to make a fresh new account

cba

[gritty steppe]

Sad

[earnest frost]

its named after you

[winter steppe]

yeah i used up all my accounts for that damn veteran thing

[earnest frost]

[winter steppe]

I just asked many questions lol

dont know who came out with it

[gritty steppe]

We miss you

[winter steppe]

[gritty steppe]

ark was first to mention it^^

[winter steppe]

Ah I see well idk might make an account on another emulator and try it

[gritty steppe]

Ngl I didn't wanna do this, just set up the guild, but it's kinda fun this far, probably gonna lose interest and drop out anyway

[winter steppe]

yeah I doubt many will continue but also interesting how far people will go to see what they would be able to achieve

[gritty steppe]

Yeah I'm already surprised by the amount of people that joined in the first place

[winter steppe]

Same same

[steep pecan]

it surely is an interesting challenge

and there are quite a few things to min-max in the pre chap 1 clear too

also @winter steppe TIL the guild shop refresh costs only 50 guild tokens

[earnest frost]

...

[winter steppe]

TIL?

[earnest frost]

it was always like that

[gritty steppe]

Bruh

[winter steppe]

[earnest frost]

[winter steppe]

how much resources did you lose

[steep pecan]

I never did it before

[winter steppe]

[gritty steppe]

How did you not know that

Like

[earnest frost]

it looks like it costs gems to refresh

tbf

but nope guild coin to refresh

[steep pecan]

also only 50 of those

[gritty steppe]

Yeah sure, but why would you not even try?

[winter steppe]

I did it once by mistake thinking it would cost gems but was surprised it cost tokens

pretty happy

[earnest frost]

don't wanna accidentally misclick

[gritty steppe]

[steep pecan]

I didnt care enough about that shop

[gritty steppe]

I mean it's truly weird and the game never tells you, but I thought by now everyone knew^^

[steep pecan]

when was the guild shop introduced into the game?

[winter steppe]

like when OpSi was introduced iirc

[earnest frost]

yeah

roughly around then

[gritty steppe]

With like OpSi

[winter steppe]

so Dec-Jan?

[steep pecan]

yea, I didnt play til late july or something

so I never got the info

[gritty steppe]

[steep pecan]

I only got lucky to be playing around the shinano event

[gritty steppe]

Btw be sure to look into the Cognitive Array support plan, that's where you get lots of exp packs^^

[steep pecan]

I know

game has those red ! everywhere

[gritty steppe]

Well yeah, but I meant look at what you gotta do for some of them, I wouldn't have done exercises otherwise

[steep pecan]

true

but I had to do exercises for the fuso meta stuff too

[gritty steppe]

fuso meta wat, you mean BP?

[steep pecan]

this I mean @gritty steppe

[gritty steppe]

Yeah BP is short for battle pass, tho ig AL calls it season pass

[steep pecan]

bp is blue print for me

[gritty steppe]

It's both

[steep pecan]

I'll prob have mlb nimi tomorrow

like after waking up

[gritty steppe]

🐌

[winter steppe]

what is the highest lv ship you have currently and where are you?

[gritty steppe]

I'm farming 3-2 atm hoping for Souryuu and Nimi is lvl 85

I'd also welcome a Hiryuu, then I could mlb my Hiryuu

[steep pecan]

my nimi is 59 and I'm also farming 3-2

working to get a second fleet

[winter steppe]

[gritty steppe]

You need 2 carriers for 2-1 HM ._.

[winter steppe]

Looks the first struggle come around W3

[steep pecan]

yea

w3 is a big block

[winter steppe]

damn this sounds way more difficult than I thought

[steep pecan]

we all thought that

w1 and 2 were easy

[winter steppe]

whats the main issue of W3?

[gritty steppe]

Yeah difficulty skyrockets cuz you can't stop suicide boats and planes like at all

[winter steppe]

I see

[steep pecan]

carriers + suicide boats

especially on 3-2 boss

or rather planes + boats

[winter steppe]

do you get any decent AA gear/ship early on?

[steep pecan]

not really

aa gear is the grey/white stuff the ships come with

[gritty steppe]

I have one AA on Helena, some grey triple piano or smth

[steep pecan]

got myself portland cuz I managed to lock myself out of the free portland for a while by getting the free weekly pack

[gritty steppe]

So sometimes some enemy plane loses 20% of its HP

[steep pecan]

6k oil early sounds nice

[gritty steppe]

I got the weekly pack and grinded it away

[steep pecan]

until you need to collect oil from the canteen

[winter steppe]

I forgot you have a very low cap

[steep pecan]

I'm like 33 now and still have more than softcap

like 2x softcap

[earnest frost]

thats why

you invest in dorm food

some say its better to buy dorm food with medals than enty

[steep pecan]

but morale doesn't run low that fast

we could grind like half a day

[gritty steppe]

Yeah you can quickly raise the oil soft cap at least, that saved me. Now I only need to wait for Nimi's skill lvl 5 to get Port

[steep pecan]

I'll have lvl 5 skill after waking up

[gritty steppe]

Yeah cuz fights take ages with these garbage guns

[steep pecan]

got 2 gold red books

but there werent any reports for akaga afaik

maybe tomorrow

[gritty steppe]

Yeah same, also just don't unlock Musou skills, then you have 10 red books

[steep pecan]

when everyone leveled stuff

not building ships also hurts quite a bit for w3 progression

[gritty steppe]

What's more important to buy first here for this run? Mle or Seattle gun?

[steep pecan]

mle is champy gun?

[gritty steppe]

Ye

[steep pecan]

seattle gun

you dont need ap that early imo

[gritty steppe]

Yeah probably true

[steep pecan]

also getting a +6 406 mk6 sure helps a lot (if you find a bb to use it on)

also low level cvs/bbs have horrible loading times for strikes

[gritty steppe]

Yeah all that waiting

[steep pecan]

and then the strike comes in on the last pack of mobs in the node

that's why I'm happy to have got lexi

her skill is quite nice

Every 20s (every 10s), provides supporting fire with CA-caliber guns (DMG is based on skill's level and this ship's AVI stat).
skill lvl 1 + +6 hellcat + the purple plane tank aux = ~50% of the named cruisers in dmg

[earnest frost]

saratoga got that skill, and has a retrofit to boot

don't both drop on the same stage anyway

[gritty steppe]

Got Souryuu

[earnest frost]

since this is a nuzlocke can we get 1 pull per event/rerun/war archives

and if we get a dupe we can reroll

[gritty steppe]

No, we're not doing a true nuzlocke challenge

If we did we might've had to go with some of Dungking's crazy suggestions

[earnest frost]

[vestal wagon]

Only 1st map drop

[gritty steppe]

Per map, but still

Or retire when they died in combat

[urban pebble]

I’m back gamers

but this time i have literally no purple plates

[craggy otter]

Just beat Crūz Missions for some plates

[urban pebble]

@earnest frost join challenge

[earnest frost]

eventually

soon ™️

[urban pebble]

oil is going down at a fast rate right now so i kinda have to run 1:1 in 4-2

[urban pebble]

gottem

[tiny lake]

So we can keep the starter ships but not the tutorials?

[smoky edge]

nothing from gacha

[earnest frost]

its basically AL but gacha doesn't exist

damn this allows cube research spam

[bold obsidian]

true

[leaden charm]

Wow AL with no gacha sounds fun

[bold obsidian]

Just pray for Alliance Launch Ceremony

Then San Diego appears from there

....actually nvm you need to be commander level 90 for that to appear right?

[urban pebble]

Sandy in medal shop tho

and exam reward

[bold obsidian]

oh yeah true true, you can use the medal shop

[vestal wagon]

you still need to gacha but from map drops instead

[urban pebble]

sandy is pretty much a must pick in exam reward right now

[tiny lake]

Can I keep the gear from retiring them?

[bold obsidian]

hamaal has found a potential loophole

[vestal wagon]

well never thought about it. but we scrap it

[smoky edge]

is their base gear even worth keeping?

[tiny lake]

Blue octuple from Norfolk

[smoky edge]

ohhh

I just scrapped out of habit

[urban pebble]

yeah same but i think we can keep them

[vestal wagon]

yeah since you can get it other than gacha anyway

the first loophole

[tiny lake]

lol

[urban pebble]

We can go for 6th dorm slot right

[tiny lake]

We doing anything like a real nuzlocke, where if your ship sinks you have to retire them?

[urban pebble]

Dock space clearly won’t be a issue

This is ramzhlocke not nuzlocke

[earnest frost]

no

[urban pebble]

well, just read the rules pinned and that’s all you need to follow

[vestal wagon]

and we can't verify if anyone lying if we actually do that

[earnest frost]

you can't verify that in an actual nuzlocke

[vestal wagon]

is it better to 1:1 farm in lower world

[urban pebble]

None of my ship has sunk so far so

and yeah i’m 1:1 4-2 right now

[vestal wagon]

hello 2-1 my old friend

[tiny lake]

I just realized we get free T1 XP packs... that's going to make early levels so easy

[earnest frost]

ight i started this challenge

[vestal wagon]

[earnest frost]

so best starter is nimi right

I was gonna choose nimi anyway she was my second pick after laffey

[urban pebble]

best starter for progress is nimi

but you don't want to see a guild full of nimis

so pick laffey instead

[earnest frost]

should i go jav

Laffey off the table

[green rapids]

yeah choose laff sam

[earnest frost]

Chose her first acc

[urban pebble]

pick nimi

[earnest frost]

ok

We can all be friends together

[urban pebble]

guild is full of nimi

[earnest frost]

[earnest frost]

So i can keep equips from tutorial builds right?

[urban pebble]

yeah

[earnest frost]

How do i disable tutorial

[vestal wagon]

you can't

[urban pebble]

you don't

[earnest frost]

Fuck

[vestal wagon]

now suffer

[urban pebble]

reminder sam

no crying

which means

the message below will be an exception

[earnest frost]

I can be sad or hurt though right

Just no tears

[vestal wagon]

who idea is it to include no crying in rules

[urban pebble]

all emotes like 😢 😿 will be banned

[vestal wagon]

😔

[earnest frost]

Forgot uni cry

[urban pebble]

and any emotes that include a crying face

[earnest frost]

😐

[urban pebble]

yes

[earnest frost]

Ill just be neutral from now on

[vestal wagon]

happy outside, dying inside

[green rapids]

[urban pebble]

totally

all hail this is our new way to express depression

[vestal wagon]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/585585241142591535.png?size=96

[earnest frost]

😐

[somber bolt]

so who is going to make the tierlists

[earnest frost]

Not me

Fuck that

[urban pebble]

fuck it

[vestal wagon]

no gacha tierlist?

[somber bolt]

I can make one since i got a lot of knowledge when it comes to this shit, but im lazy and not part of this fiesta

[urban pebble]

very cool

[vestal wagon]

idk which ship have good retro

[somber bolt]

bruh

[vestal wagon]

i think it's time to refer my old guide

just3c

[urban pebble]

rush Nimi first

[somber bolt]

its literally london

[earnest frost]

Since my dock has no gacha

[urban pebble]

i'll do Nimi -> London -> Sara

[earnest frost]

Guess memento is more viable than ever

[urban pebble]

Port can leave for later because overleveling can tank

[somber bolt]

you use memento for wichita

Cleveland/Wichita/Helena is your base game saviors if no retro

[urban pebble]

don't think Wichita has any real usage when w14 is DD fiesta

basically to prep

you may need 4 starters

and Kitakaze

[somber bolt]

just

get z fleet

[urban pebble]

have fun waiting for Z46

[earnest frost]

Can I do the daily build mission but retire the ship immediately after

[green rapids]

I remember they said about using archieve as proof so I think you can't do that

[limpid sierra]

Guys do you have list of oil consumption limits on every stages up???

[earnest frost]

This isnt pins...

This is a thread

[limpid sierra]

Oh sorry im just new to discord

[urban pebble]

no

[green rapids]

click that

[earnest frost]

If you go to #gameplay-help and check the pins there theres a chart with the limits

[tiny lake]

Leander would be a good option

[earnest frost]

ight

[urban pebble]

i almost build by habit

remember don't

if you accidentally tap build, don't claim

[tiny lake]

Not doing the 1 build/day daily is goign to be the hard part

[urban pebble]

don't be tempted

if you accidentally build and claim, while getting a build only ship, you're disqualified

[earnest frost]

Should I literally just lvl 60 my nimi through exp packs day 1

[tiny lake]

I did 30 per character

[earnest frost]

I'll wait until i get more good ships

[urban pebble]

just don't lv her to 100 too fast

[earnest frost]

Yeah i just got mine to 20 for now

Only on 1-2

[urban pebble]

hows manual

[earnest frost]

You mean auto

[urban pebble]

also be prepared, w3 is a big roadblock

[tiny lake]

How so, harder to beat?

[urban pebble]

you're usually underleveled, and planes hurt

and lack of equip is another painful problem

[smoky edge]

I should join that guild

Ditched my sandy account for one in amagi anyways

[tiny lake]

I sent a request but haven't been accepted

[urban pebble]

wait for thorin i guess

[vestal wagon]

1 down 1 to go

[steep pecan]

this only works if we really work out how to proceed in this early game

[steep pecan]

oh damn

[urban pebble]

Nice

[gusty wren]

Grats

[green rapids]

[gusty wren]

I just got kent lul

[steep pecan]

I'm now farming 3-4

[timid hull]

is this hardcore challenge ?

[vestal wagon]

no gacha challenge

[gusty wren]

cygnet is ridiculously useful for not getting ambushes

[gusty wren]

I am doing singlefleet (other fleet is for getting air control bonuses) and its working

MLB z23 with single 127 +6, helena LB2 w tbtsk+6, Cygnet, Nevada LB1, Bogue lb1, hermes lb1

[winter steppe]

It's pretty hardcore if W3 is already stopping people

[timid hull]

@winter steppe i see this challenge as "how to inflict pain to yourself" :XD

[winter steppe]

That's how I see it too

but people said "yes you can clear game no gacha ez"

now I see them struggle in W3

pretty cool

again it's an interesting challenge

[timid hull]

i thought struggle starts at w8

[winter steppe]

I wonder how will it be by W8

they should have good enough ships by then but will they be able to let's say beat W10+?

between suicide boats etc

[timid hull]

yuudachi retro will be a huge boost tbh

imagine you challenge this without yuudachi retro

[winter steppe]

also would you even be able to unlock PR before then? If so very possible to be able to do so but that require tech points

Oh yeah they will get Sandy Retro and Yuudachi retro at some point

those should help

[timid hull]

man

without poi kai

the suffering will be even worse

[sick crest]

Looks struggle because they are forcing the way

Not like when thet begin play al

[winter steppe]

The thing is being a gacha game many good ships are gacha only and those ships really do help in higher chapters, so can you really force your way to endgame with just initial ships?

theoretically: yes
practically: sounds very difficult the more time passes

[vestal wagon]

initial ships maybe, pr ships yes

[timid hull]

btw ramzh

[winter steppe]

tbh I didnt expect people to struggle in W3 which made me rethink of the practicallity of this challenge

[timid hull]

whoever says this "yes you can clear game no gacha ez"

i think you should challenge them this instead xD

[winter steppe]

I mean I did

[vestal wagon]

the problem is gear rn for me

[winter steppe]

Someone yesterday asked the question and there were a bunch of replies with "yes"

[winter steppe]

Yeah can imagine early words have not much gear

[vestal wagon]

ark asked if it's possible to clear the game without gacha ships

[timid hull]

lets see in a week

[winter steppe]

is quad bofo the first good drop in story?

[vestal wagon]

then we move to can we get pr ships without gacha

[timid hull]

or maybe they're dodging the challenge instead

[vestal wagon]

then this happens

[timid hull]

quad bofor then prolly quad 610 for DD/cruisers

[vestal wagon]

my ships are levelled enough, now i'm clearing ch4 and maybe 5 next

[winter steppe]

Are you able to auto?

[vestal wagon]

yes

[winter steppe]

Can you show fleet and gear?

Curious to see

[sick crest]

Is it good idea to stream your progress?

[vestal wagon]

1 fleet that fight and another is for air superiority

[winter steppe]

I mean you could

Who doesnt like to see someone suffer /s

like those nuzlocke challenge or pokemon runs with just magikarp etc

[vestal wagon]

ouh i unlocked meowficers

i don't remember that scene

the cats running around

[timid hull]

or speedrunning only to get wrecked by RNG

[winter steppe]

yeah

[timid hull]

you should throw this challenge to chinese or jp players ramzh

wanna see how they do xD

[winter steppe]

The thing is I didnt make this challenge someone here had the idea and I asked question in regards to it because I was and still am skeptical of the doability of it

[timid hull]

tbf they're overexaggerating that AL don't need gacha or anything

since that's probably the most BS shit

[vestal wagon]

Other ships have default gear

@winter steppe here you go

[winter steppe]

thanks!

appriciated

[vestal wagon]

exp packs are op

[winter steppe]

damn uni port and nimi very good start

[winter steppe]

To an extent

[vestal wagon]

could be better if i get cleve

[winter steppe]

probably

Gacha for sure makes life a lot easier

but that's the point

[timid hull]

but at the very least

[winter steppe]

will you still be able to clear the game without having access to such comodity?

[timid hull]

the only annoying shit about being f2p is docks

you can control amount of cubes or pulling more or not

[winter steppe]

In this case should not be a problem as they probably gonna use very limited ships anyway

[timid hull]

yeah

[vestal wagon]

another problem is

lacks of ships for commissions

[timid hull]

i was saying in general, if the complaint is dock is the expensive shit while gacha is absolutely fine for AL, then its much more reasonable. since yes, other gacha game can be much more predatorial

[vestal wagon]

especially when it need a certain level

[winter steppe]

nailed it yeah

[timid hull]

lvl 45 or even 50 commander to get the goodies comm xD

[winter steppe]

I completely forgot about it this

yeah

sounds reasonable to have such issue now that i think of it

[vestal wagon]

already got 11 gems from commissions

[timid hull]

spain without S

in literal fashion

[winter steppe]

#f2pbtw

[vestal wagon]

finally i can use that tag

[timid hull]

at what cost to get that tag

[vestal wagon]

my free time and sanity

[timid hull]

imagine this challenge makes your sanity dropped to oblivion because of a dude spouting dumb shit xD

[vestal wagon]

lmao

[gritty steppe]

So sam started this too?

Made a bunch of u Officers btw

[timid hull]

idk

whose the mad lads doing this challenge so far

[gritty steppe]

Like 50% of the ppl in this thread^^

[winter steppe]

the 50% is here for the show

and seeing partecipatns sanity deplete

[drowsy coral]

Seeing them suffer fuels me

[timid hull]

LOL

their suffering is my entertainment

[vestal wagon]

cleo and ahri are sadistic noted

[gritty steppe]

Why don't you LB your Nevada?^^

[vestal wagon]

ouh yeah forgot to lb again

[winter steppe]

maybe set the retire function to keep enough copies to MLB

[vestal wagon]

i didn't retire anyone yet

[gritty steppe]

Retiring commons

[winter steppe]

oh thought you forgot because you retired her copies

[gritty steppe]

Probably used for enhancement is my guess

[winter steppe]

ah I see right right

[gritty steppe]

Fill button is ruthless

[urban pebble]

I didn’t have any struggle with w3 first day though

currently about to hit 5-1 as soon as I finish my next tbtsk

[gritty steppe]

gamer god

[urban pebble]

skill issue it’s all about experience

[gritty steppe]

Should I part with my lvl 50 Cygnet in favour of lvl 4 Portland?

[winter steppe]

Hmmmm

Portland would be more useful imo

but how come lv so low?

you just got her?

[gritty steppe]

Ye

[winter steppe]

might be a good idea to set her in dorm maybe as well

[gritty steppe]

That's where she got those 3 lvls

But beginner dorm is slow as anything

[winter steppe]

Hmmm would be worth in the long run

portland kai not bad at all

[gritty steppe]

Wow Stage clear rewards for 4-1 and 5-1 are amazing

[vestal wagon]

finally got cleveland

[drowsy coral]

Im into sadistic guys in roleplay its not surprising

[vestal wagon]

sorry shouhou, but i need you to keep fighting even with 0 morale

[bold obsidian]

[sharp inlet]

[vestal wagon]

road to 0 affinity

[sharp inlet]

[gusty wren]

I'm not struggling.

[gritty steppe]

I wouldn't say w3 stops ppl, it just occasionally killed a ship for me

[steep pecan]

it was the first world that actually forced me to lb ships + level up a couple good ones

I lb lexi twice with bulins + ranger once with another ranger

then the boss was almost 1hit from both cv strikes

[vestal wagon]

i still don't get saratoga

i need her to increase my motivation

[steep pecan]

I also got a portland drop before I could finish the mission for her

[gusty wren]

yeah you want to LB for W2, and potentially get a CL secondary battleship

[steep pecan]

yeah

got fuso meta

[gusty wren]

T2 duckgun!!!!!

[vestal wagon]

i forgot which one is duckgun

[gusty wren]

twin 100mm

its the gun that helps best on VG to stop fireboats

a weaker twin 114mm

[gritty steppe]

Just have a high lvl backline and don't care about fire boats

[gusty wren]

eh, when I get bogue (off-flag) below half, its a good sign to stop and rethink the measures

oh no

I'll never be rid of the paw prints

[gritty steppe]

[urban pebble]

sounds like PoW

[gritty steppe]

Did you need to retire any purins or did you just get enough elites?

[gusty wren]

yeah, PoW would be great, I just dont have enough medals

[gusty wren]

how did oyu get the medals?

[urban pebble]

retire a bunch of Shigures in 4-2

[gusty wren]

so just rush to 4-2?

[urban pebble]

pretty much it

[gusty wren]

no 3-2, no 3-4?

[urban pebble]

i have been hugging 4-2 for quite some time now

yep

3-4 is completely unnecessary

[gusty wren]

you've been one fleeet-ing a bunch too right?

[urban pebble]

no, i have two fleets

3-2 if you need helldiver but the drop rate is omega ass and CVs without mlb do trash damage anyway

[gritty steppe]

Drop rate is just sad yeah

[urban pebble]

i have been running single line and let vanguard do the majority of damage

[gritty steppe]

I wanted to get one for my Hiryuu, but gave up halfway

[urban pebble]

clearing 4-4 give you one anyway

[gritty steppe]

Yeah noticed that as well

You happen to know a good way to get another purple bulin?

[urban pebble]

progress in story

[gritty steppe]

Does every like X-2 map give one as 3* reward or smth?

[urban pebble]

yes

[gritty steppe]

[urban pebble]

Very nice

[gritty steppe]

Meanwhile I get Terror

[urban pebble]

i didn't expect progressing too fast will make every content's planes hitting as hard as w13

lmfao my wales died in 5-1 boss

[gusty wren]

don't want to be too optimistic, but DC A1 looks nice in this sense

FW/French/Nagato A1 has t3 quad 533mm torps

WC A1 has TBTSK

[urban pebble]

i'm so starved for purple bulins now that i need to farm for dupes

[gritty steppe]

Yepp

[vestal wagon]

i want to send screenshot but my internet doesn't even load the thread in my phone

[fresh walrus]

what is this for

[vestal wagon]

read pin

[fresh walrus]

can we buy stuff from medal?

[winter steppe]

yes

[vestal wagon]

yes

come on ffs this shitty internet

[winter steppe]

are you crazy too? you really wanna do this?

[fresh walrus]

i used to do this twice already

[vestal wagon]

First pr unlocked

[fresh walrus]

i needed to saved oil for w14

so do this 1 or 2 week should be fine

[earnest frost]

Why arent you doing /catchup

[fresh walrus]

can we do daily pull?

[winter steppe]

no

[fresh walrus]

then retire

[vestal wagon]

i'm doing it

[winter steppe]

nope

no pull at all

[vestal wagon]

wait do i need to not develop sanrui?

[winter steppe]

why not?

[vestal wagon]

my internet can't load that image

i mean for /catchup

[craggy otter]

Still on the 3-2 grind

[fresh walrus]

thread cant do command

[vestal wagon]

yes i know

can someone tldr to me the catchup thing

my shit internet can't load the image

[craggy otter]

Is 3-2 for Bunnies a trap?

[fresh walrus]

dont focus catch up on pr1

use coin for max dev pr1

then focus on pr1

[vestal wagon]

so i'm allowed to do sanrui right?

[fresh walrus]

to get spare blueprint -> protocore-> gear

profit

[vestal wagon]

i mean build

[earnest frost]

You do pr2 catchup

[fresh walrus]

yes

[vestal wagon]

ok nice so i'm not doing something wrong

[earnest frost]

And wait until you get a pr1 ship to dev 30 with coins before you do pr1

[craggy otter]

Complaining works

[earnest frost]

then once its dev 30 you take the 300 pr1 catchup prints and convert it to protocore

[fresh walrus]

Wait an

[winter steppe]

[craggy otter]

Thats cheating

[vestal wagon]

[steep pecan]

[vestal wagon]

disqualifed

[steep pecan]

[earnest frost]

Gotta be a brand new account

[sharp inlet]

[steep pecan]

[fresh walrus]

what to do

[steep pecan]

new acc

[vestal wagon]

create new account

[fresh walrus]

only 1 phone

[steep pecan]

emulator for pc

[vestal wagon]

switch email then

or email CS and ask them to delete your amagi account

[steep pecan]

[vestal wagon]

[earnest frost]

Whats the guild shop strat

[fresh walrus]

buy everything except cat

[earnest frost]

Shouhou and cleve or uni and port

No like

This is the ramzhlocke

[fresh walrus]

uni and port

[earnest frost]

@vestal wagon what did you do

[vestal wagon]

i did what

i choose uni and port. but i think better uni and cleve

ouh wait can't

[earnest frost]

I got helena cleve penn port

[vestal wagon]

that's fine i guess

[urban pebble]

After 24hours of starting here is account showcase

hunting for Saratoga is pain

[craggy otter]

Grinding out that PoW

[urban pebble]

it's not that hard though

just need to retire some Shigures

[craggy otter]

I'm at 11 medals

[urban pebble]

the fuck did you buy

[craggy otter]

On 3-3

I don't think I bought anything

[vestal wagon]

it's been 24h already?

[urban pebble]

solid proof that farming bunnies slow down your progress

kekW

[urban pebble]

yeah, kinda

[craggy otter]

Yep, Bunnies a trap

[urban pebble]

i only farmed Souryuu to enter 3-1

3-1 hard

[earnest frost]

Add me to guild

[craggy otter]

Am I the only one with double bunnies

[vestal wagon]

did you apply already?

[urban pebble]

olmen can do it right

[vestal wagon]

gimme a sec

eeh

wasted my 4 oil

[urban pebble]

oil is pretty scarce now

[vestal wagon]

farming 3-2 is pain. you always go to boss with 0 ammo

[craggy otter]

?/10 for Helldiver

[urban pebble]

oh i'm also officer

[vestal wagon]

everyone is officer

everyone that not trainee

[craggy otter]

I'm on 3/10

[earnest frost]

My port is mvp stealing from a z23 thats 10+ lvls higher

[vestal wagon]

why do we right bunny to get fox. and fight fox to get bunny

[urban pebble]

i fight neither to get neither

[vestal wagon]

2/10

[gritty steppe]

Wait it's time to show our docks?

[sick crest]

[craggy otter]

DIdn't know farming Purple Gear was so painful

[gritty steppe]

Where's flower and Ramzh at anyway

[earnest frost]

[vestal wagon]

cleveland keep stealing mvp from port

guess because of the gear

[earnest frost]

yeah

My port got a blue gun

And all my other ships got shit

[vestal wagon]

my port got grey gun

[gritty steppe]

I wish my Shouhou could stop dying

My Port has purple twin 203

[vestal wagon]

how to keep ship above 0 morale

[steep pecan]

oh no

I have to boot up the game

[vestal wagon]

if only my laptop powerful enough for 2 bluestack instances

[gusty wren]

farm mode?

[vestal wagon]

it struggles even with one instances on 30fps

[gritty steppe]

Whose skill should I level? Shouhou?

[gusty wren]

heal

erm

I'm doing z23 and helena

[vestal wagon]

i do nimi uni

[winter steppe]

Probably healer would be a good idea

[gritty steppe]

It's just Shouhou is so slow she kinda rarely actually launches an airstrike

[steep pecan]

[gritty steppe]

Imagine getting a Tenrai here before on main

[urban pebble]

2nd tenrai in this thread

[vestal wagon]

did anyone else unlocked any pr ships?

[gritty steppe]

Dunno

[steep pecan]

I'm quite a bit away from sanrui (15/20) and roon(4/7)

[gritty steppe]

Nope, 19/20

[vestal wagon]

guess i'm the only one so far

farming pr in 3-2

[steep pecan]

I'm farming 3-4

[vestal wagon]

need the bunny

[gritty steppe]

Damn why doesn't Port drop in 4-2 :/

[gusty wren]

17/20 sanrui, 15/20 yeptune

currently doing my daily on main

[steep pecan]

yeptune felt kinda underwhelming while farming on main

I prob go with roon this time

[gusty wren]

DC A1 is like 3-1 in difficulty

so going there to farm the Z girls might be good

[gritty steppe]

Or farm Z1 in 5-1

[gusty wren]

and*

[craggy otter]

Got the Starter Trio

[steep pecan]

[urban pebble]

3 Javs so far

[gritty steppe]

I only get Nimis^^

[vestal wagon]

got another souryuu...

[gritty steppe]

I wish I had 3 Souryuus

[steep pecan]

I got mlb nimi

[vestal wagon]

[urban pebble]

Let’s go

[gusty wren]

I take it you didnt keep shigure, right?

[urban pebble]

i keep one copy of her tho

PoW carrying my deadass fleet let's fucking go

[gritty steppe]

How to get ship drops that aren't common? I need 26 medals

[urban pebble]

git gud

[vestal wagon]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/898822613026086923.gif

[gusty wren]

I just realized no Spee for us

[vestal wagon]

this thing would be interesting to record and upload to youtube

[sick crest]

Do it

[vestal wagon]

too lazy to record and edit

i'm not a content creator

[sick crest]

[urban pebble]

let's see how far i can push with a little oil left and PoW mlb

[gritty steppe]

After some of my vgs struggling hard in 5-1 I haven't tried it again^^

I wonder if I should go to 3-2 to farm for Souryuu copies

[urban pebble]

don't have any issues with vanguard but my backline is being constantly threatened by planes

planes fucking hurt like it's w13

[gusty wren]

look for places to grab AAgun bps

[urban pebble]

hopefully i can make it to 6-1 today

[gusty wren]

IIRC some SP war archives stages have good drop pools

[urban pebble]

i crafted 2 shitter AA guns from 4-2

sideproduct

[gusty wren]

so everyone has AA guns now?

how is the fighter cover?

[urban pebble]

Langley is doing the fighter cover for now

[gusty wren]

apparently she isn't doing enough

[urban pebble]

she might be my AA carry in w12-13 if Lusty doesn't show up in medal

[vestal wagon]

how long you think to reach w12?

[gusty wren]

in W13 she got eaten by planes even though she was retro-d and full of good fighters

she was what? lvl 115?

[urban pebble]

looks like Isuzu is still a necessity

[urban pebble]

at this rate, might be a month

[vestal wagon]

[gritty steppe]

Hmm guess I should raise my Langley

[earnest frost]

Yall really speedrunning

im slow casual

[urban pebble]

i'm living true to my words

[vestal wagon]

honestly. i'm enjoying this

[urban pebble]

nice change of pace

[gusty wren]

enjoying it more than my main account

[urban pebble]

it's kinda repetitive to farm 12-4 all the time

[gusty wren]

and opsi months end stuff

[urban pebble]

woo i got jesus

[vestal wagon]

[urban pebble]

juneau, useless but at least i can start sanrui now

stuck with 19/20 for the longest time

[vestal wagon]

6% CDC1

[gusty wren]

I'm thinking of startiing anew

having to do both accounts sequentially sucks major ass

[urban pebble]

i won't

[gusty wren]

I mean, for myself

will have to rejoin the guild

[urban pebble]

your choice then

i just set a timer for research in main

and come back occasionally

[vestal wagon]

wait i don't understand

you making new acc as main acc?

[urban pebble]

apparently so

he's having fun

[vestal wagon]

with no gacha though

[steep pecan]

he wants to play both accs at the same time

[urban pebble]

i'm already kinda doing so

i'm about to run dry in the challenge acc though

[vestal wagon]

i'm updating AL in my secondary phone

[urban pebble]

also a great reason to not spend oil in main

because i need those oil for w14

[vestal wagon]

yeah i forgot to do research on main

[urban pebble]

go set a timer

[vestal wagon]

fuck yeah

Time to grind affinity

[vestal wagon]

yeah forgot notification doesn't work anymore

[urban pebble]

holy shit

i don't even have the oil to get to 5-4

[winter steppe]

Her kai will make a lot of stages easier

[vestal wagon]

if we did this challenge earlier we could get poi kai

[urban pebble]

no poi kai makes the challenge harder

[steep pecan]

tbh

most of the lategame fleets will most likely consist of multiple pr ships

[tiny lake]

I'm anticipating that, yeah

[urban pebble]

that would require too much time

[flat zenith]

cheshire being the most notable one tho

[urban pebble]

i'm going to see how far i can go

without the PRs

[flat zenith]

[steep pecan]

im currently leveling up ships in 3-4

[gusty wren]

Starter pulls were Hammann and Kent, they are scrap.
It's much better this way

[urban pebble]

did you really start anew somewhere else

[gusty wren]

going to invest harder in commons, they are easier to get copies for MLB

yeah, amagi, instead of BoroNoGacha, it's BoroNoPulling

[vestal wagon]

[flat zenith]

[urban pebble]

another challenge run huh

[vestal wagon]

how much diff between 4-1 and 3-4

[gusty wren]

dropping BoroNoGacha obv

[urban pebble]

i'll kick that out then

4-1 drop good ships but shit gears
3-4 is 3-4

[vestal wagon]

i already got sara so 3-4 it is

[flat zenith]

[urban pebble]

do 4-2

[vestal wagon]

this all good gear right?

[gusty wren]

already removed that acc from the guild

[flat zenith]

2nd one's a good transitional BB aux ig

[urban pebble]

at least you need 120 for nimi, tbtsk for CLs and 203 twin for Portland

[flat zenith]

[urban pebble]

that's fast

[gusty wren]

epic

[flat zenith]

probs gonna stay in 3-4 till I have two fleets at 70+ and max mlb akaga

[urban pebble]

that would be slow as fuck

[flat zenith]

ye I decided to go on the casual pace rather than speedrunning

[urban pebble]

sure

[winter steppe]

Damn

congrats

[sick crest]

[winter steppe]

are you the first getting her?

[flat zenith]

I believe so ye

[gusty wren]

first to report at least

[winter steppe]

stronk

[craggy otter]

Akaga strat still my favorite

[gusty wren]

applied to guild @gritty steppe

[urban pebble]

wait a min i'll accept

[gritty steppe]

Aren't u in it since yesterday?

[urban pebble]

he started anew

[gusty wren]

restarted in order to play simultaneously with my main

[urban pebble]

that’s enough progress for today
