Hey guys, my backline is Richy, Aquila, Percy. Vanguard is kinda irrelevant since this mob fleet is sinking on auto. Any suggestions on who to run for vanguard? I'd prefer not to change the backline, but I'm open to suggestions if you guys think there's a better setup.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:34 AM

#

do you have a dev 30 fdg

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:35 AM

#

It's in my boss.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:35 AM

#

ok thats fair

#

by auto im assuming you mean auto search right?

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:35 AM

#

Yea, full auto, full safe.

#

I think I could take FDG out of boss and still clear boss.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:35 AM

#

eh leave her there for now

#

if stuff continues to die then we might need to drop her down

#

for mob vanguard, can you try mainz yuudachi retrofit rikka?

#

NagaThonk

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:36 AM

#

Yea, I'll do that and get back to you.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:37 AM

#

mainz dev 30 is enough but fs5 would be better ChampyXD

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:37 AM

#

Rikka keeps her gear or should I swap it for more traditional stuff?

#

Yea Mainz is maxed.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:37 AM

#

well poi runs the hedge

#

then percy runs double asw plane

#

or are you using an asw plane at all?

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:37 AM

#

I'm not, but that's only because on manual the subs aren't a problem at all.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:38 AM

#

ok yeah you wanna craft 1 asw plane and put it on percy

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:38 AM

#

Will do.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:38 AM

#

its in gear lab uss torpedo bomber

#

then on rikka you run tracto borr calibur depth charge toolbox/rudder

#

or alternatively you can run double asw plane on percy and scrap the depth charge to run toolbox rudder as the last 2 aux slots

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:42 AM

#

No Vitur right?

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:42 AM

#

na

#

no vitter cause a) AA doesn't matter, b) apparently the additional vitter barrage is bugged and aims wack due to flares and c) you get more benefit running something else over it

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:43 AM

#

Oh I had no idea it was bugged. Thanks.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:43 AM

#

well its only bugged in w14

#

even aimed torpedo bombers too

#

they target the enemy flares for whatever reason NimiWat

#

although granted i saw that bug yesterday so maybe its fixed

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:45 AM

#

Toolbox/Hedge on POI?

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:45 AM

#

ye

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:46 AM

#

Is Rikka insane?

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:46 AM

#

shes pretty good

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:46 AM

#

I never got the chance to use her.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:46 AM

#

shes only let down cause barrages are every 20-30 sec

#

but those barrages are Blessex mobbing

#

bossing since barrage is wideish not as good as in mob

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:47 AM

#

Yolo pushed her to 120 from 102.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:47 AM

#

pog

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:47 AM

#

First attempt, lets go.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:48 AM

#

make sure tracto and calibur are +10

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:48 AM

#

Gotcha.

#

Everyone rocking +10 min.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:48 AM

#

borr just needs +6 minimum, but +10 doesn't hurt

#

oh pog

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:49 AM

#

Sucks the fleets won't auto grab ammo.

#

That would be so helpful.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:49 AM

#

yeah

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:49 AM

#

First battle and Percy is at 5%.

#

She took a few unlucky shots from the BB nodes it seems.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:50 AM

#

try running aquila on top and percy on bottom

#

NagaThonk

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:50 AM

#

Swapping now.

#

Richy got shot down on the third battle.

#

Non BB nodes seem to be fine.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:56 AM

#

run a rudder on richy

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:56 AM

#

But once I encounter one, I take a ton of daamge.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:56 AM

#

if you aren't already

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:56 AM

#

Will do.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:57 AM

#

rudder hsfcr

#

mk7

#

ChampyXD

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:57 AM

#

Wait isn't HSFCR counter intuitive?

#

First shot fires faster, but she instantly fires.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 3:59 AM

#

the skill applies to shot 2

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 3:59 AM

#

Interesting.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 4:00 AM

#

*for preload ships only

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 4:01 AM

#

MK7 over +13 FDG?

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 4:05 AM

#

yes

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 4:07 AM

#

Alright, first node is a BB. Let's see how it goes.

#

The pain.

#

Spent 30k gearing and leveling.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 4:07 AM

#

LaffPat

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 4:07 AM

#

Was saving up for UR in terms of coins. T.T

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 4:07 AM

#

this is in a post clearing reward society so its fine

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 4:08 AM

#

True and I realize W14-4 drops like 2k coins per clear.

#

Surprisingly I think I'm taking a decent amount of damage to the suicide boats. Not the slow moving CA/CL ones, but the red torp ones.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 4:09 AM

#

ok so

#

do you have a twin 130

#

put that as richy aux

#

and if you have a second one put it as fdg aux as well

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 4:09 AM

#

Should I swap Richy's Nep to a TBTSK?

#

Twin 130.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 4:09 AM

#

na use a twin 130 if you can

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 4:09 AM

#

Lemme double check which one that is.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 4:09 AM

#

twin 130 is a dd gun

#

tash gun you may have heard it called

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 4:10 AM

#

Yaaa.

#

I got 2 of em from the rerun.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 4:10 AM

#

pog

#

so one on fdg and one on richy

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 4:10 AM

#

Gotcha.

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 4:29 AM

#

Sank on the 7th battle I'd like to say.

#

6th or 7th.

#

It was Richy who gave out.

#

Everyone else actually tanked pretty well.

#

Looks like I probably have to move FDG down.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 5:15 AM

#

maybe

#

NagaThonk

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 6:19 AM

#

Gonna slap FDG down and give it another try.

#

Who do you think I can use to replace FDG in boss in terms of damage though?

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 6:29 AM

#

idk

#

NagaThonk

#

apparently on safe

#

amagi nj shinano is popular

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 6:34 AM

#

For bossing right?

#

I'm already running Shina, NJ, so slapping Amagi in should be no prob.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 6:39 AM

#

ye

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 6:49 AM

#

Oof swapping FDG performed worse somehow. She couldn't clear the 6th battle.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 6:57 AM

#

did you give her rudder hsfcr mk7?

#

also twin 130?

#

PortDoll

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 6:58 AM

#

Oh I realized I forgot to swap that over.

shell goblet Dec 17, 2021, 6:58 AM

#

thats why ChampyXD

main perch Dec 17, 2021, 7:00 AM

#

Going to sleep now, so this will probably shutdown, but I'll update you when I get the chance to try out the new setup.

#

Thanks Sam!
