post your full ship inventory here

[grizzled summit]

Ig i haven't gave them good guns and stuff but other than that pls give advice

[zealous wharf]

i mean your fleet selection screen

[runic wasp]

yeah show us your whole dock

[zealous wharf]

where you have every single ship you own

[runic wasp]

because if you want real advice

none of those ships are that good

in terms of lategame

[grizzled summit]

o

[runic wasp]

earlygame your ship choice is mostly just preference

[runic wasp]

so

are you asking for advice on

how to make that specific fleet work

or are you saying

idk what ships to use

[zealous wharf]

you want us to help you make a fleet compo?

[runic wasp]

What are you trying to accomplish with this fleet

[grizzled summit]

er yea

[runic wasp]

Well it depends

You have really solid units

[zealous wharf]

okay cool, what map are you planning to fight?

[runic wasp]

^

[grizzled summit]

I just want a strong fleet

[runic wasp]

okay

to do what

fight bosses

or fight mobs

or general content

[zealous wharf]

assume general

[runic wasp]

okay

[zealous wharf]

just a strong mob fleet and a good boss fleet

[runic wasp]

you want to look for synergies between units

like

"oh san diego has great surface damage and AA"

"what do I need to use to round that out"

if its w12-w13

for example

you need the AA

but in other content

her AA niche isnt relevant

so she doesnt stack up the same as some of the other ships

if that makes sense

[zealous wharf]

just assume they are w12 or under

[runic wasp]

okay

[zealous wharf]

w13 they can go talk to us again about special application fleets, just a unga bunga brute fleet for mob and boss should be fine for them

[runic wasp]

that makes sense

okay

well

I would say

Amagi is a phenomenal ship

before plane hell

because of her utility + consistent damage with barrage

and she can fit into any comp

then throw ulrich in there

because shes broken

and then i guess you would want a CV

for frontline

Chapayev/Yuudachi/Bremerton

could be good HE focus

and all of them are relatively tanky

or if you want to lean more into sakura ships

nagato flag/bunnydragon sisters

then

noshiro/yuudachi

for torpedo shenanigans

it really just depends on preference before a certain point in the game

tier list helps show why ships are rated for lategame

[zealous wharf]

okay so let's give him a lineup to use while he reads up on the meta

[runic wasp]

help me out

im bad at explaining stuff

[zealous wharf]

okay

[runic wasp]

Personally when I build fleets im usually levelling them at this point

so I have a hard time thinking of what to use from the perspective of it being new

[zealous wharf]

Mob fleet:

Main: Amagi/Ryuuhou/Unicorn
Escort: Yuudachi/Tashkent/Bremerton

[runic wasp]

Do you think he needs that much healing

Yuudachi and tash

are super tanky

and will obliterate most of the stuff in the way

[zealous wharf]

it allows him for the most brainless play and just faceroll everything so yes

[runic wasp]

especially with amagi debuff

true

if you slip in one more japanese unit

you get amagi preload tho

so its worth considering

[zealous wharf]

Boss fleet:

Main: Ulrich / Enterprise / Essex
Escort: Portland / Helana / Seattle or Sandy Kai

[runic wasp]

if its bossfleet

make ulrich offflag

her dps is better

[zealous wharf]

Mob fleet alternative:

Main: Amagi/Ryuuhou/Unicorn or Shouhou
Escort: Noshiro/ Tashkent/ Yuudachi

and if you want a more bb heavy bossfleet
Warspite Kai as flag with Ulrich off flag and Enterprise

these setups with decent equip will faceroll everything up w12, and come w13 you have some ships up for that, but we'll deal with that when you get there.

[runic wasp]

yeah

w13 is basically

"oh i have san diego"

"time to use her"

w14 is

surprisingly

DD safehaven

but the backline becomes the one in danger

but that is far away

so
