Hello (?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:37 AM

#

send what gear your ships have, you shouldn't be struggling that hard with that fleet

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:37 AM

#

I should send my gear of my main ships, right?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:37 AM

#

and vanguard

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:37 AM

#

Ok, wait a sec

#

#

#

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:42 AM

#

uhh, so, where to start

rare orbit Jan 28, 2022, 2:42 AM

#

Well, to start with, take off all the anti-sub gear since there's no subs

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:42 AM

#

i'd say JB is the only one with decent equipment there

rare orbit Jan 28, 2022, 2:43 AM

#

Also, can you post your depot so we know what other gear you have?

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:43 AM

#

Someone help me to buy that black missile it has

#

She has* I asked if I should buy Jean Bart's weapon, but I bought that instead

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:44 AM

#

i'l start with portland i guess

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:44 AM

#

rare orbit Also, can you post your depot so we know what other gear you have?

Or course, give me a moment

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:44 AM

#

this thing, or the purple version instead of that main gun

#

and upgrade it

#

that secondary gun and AA are garbage

#

if you are using an autoloader at all (which you really shouldn't ever), use a purple one

#

and UPGRADE GEAR

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:45 AM

#

#

Lvl 4 isn't enough?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:46 AM

#

portland has literally nothing upgraded though

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:47 AM

#

I'll be honest, I don't know how to build, so I don't know if any of the guns really help any of my ships

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:47 AM

Azur Lane(EN) In-Depth Equipment Guide Series: Index Page

2020/01/01 revamp: All existing guide pages are in the process of being revamped. More hidden stats and mechanics will be added and discus...

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:47 AM

#

I just think that if I put a good gun = more damage = good

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:47 AM

#

this is outdated, but still has value

#

basically, AP guns on BBs have VERY niche use

#

your Ulrich has an AP gun (and not a good one) against a light armor boss

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:48 AM

#

And just equipped shiny things, mostly

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:48 AM

#

so she is doing basically nothing

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:48 AM

#

But, she has good damage even if she has a bad weapon?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:49 AM

#

not at all

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:49 AM

#

Is she some kind of monster or what?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:49 AM

#

can't fix a bad gun

#

Ulrich is top 3 BB in the entire game, but a shit gun will make her terrible

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:49 AM

#

gray pumice portland has literally nothing upgraded though

Yes, because I added recently and just give her random equipment for replacing my Shropshire

#

After my JB she is the my second best damage dealer

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

gray pumice your Ulrich has an AP gun (and not a good one) against a light armor boss

The damage depends on the type of armor?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

yes, ammo has modifiers

#

HE is best against light and mid armor

#

AP best against heavy

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

Ooh

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

normal ammo sucks

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

Then, there are HE guns and AP guns?

rare orbit Jan 28, 2022, 2:53 AM

#

It also depends on the type of gun. For example, some of the best DD and CA guns are normal ammo

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:53 AM

#

yeah

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:53 AM

#

But, do I have a HE gun?

rare orbit Jan 28, 2022, 2:54 AM

#

The gun that Jean Bart has is an HE gun, and actually one of the best ones

scenic violet Jan 28, 2022, 2:54 AM

#

Just check their ammo type

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:55 AM

#

I checked

#

I put this to Ulrich

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:55 AM

#

@serene wagon i picked out a loadout for your Magdeburg using the gear you have available

#

it could be better, but it's better than what you have

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:56 AM

#

#

I put her a HE gun lvl 6

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:56 AM

#

alright, that gun is already a significant improvement

scenic violet Jan 28, 2022, 2:56 AM

#

Twin 410 is for ships with on-fire barrage, use mk6 for uvh

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:56 AM

#

Mk6?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:56 AM

#

now her shells will actually do damage to Bristol

scenic violet Jan 28, 2022, 2:56 AM

#

Well she has one too but better use a shelling gun

scenic violet Jan 28, 2022, 2:56 AM

#

scenic violet Just check their ammo type

Mk6

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:57 AM

#

#

@serene wagon

#

this is honestly best normally attainable BB gun in the game

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:57 AM

#

The one I have on Jean Bart?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:57 AM

#

none of the gold guns even come close to this thing

rare orbit Jan 28, 2022, 2:57 AM

#

Yeah, I think they're saying to have your Jean Bart and UvH swap guns

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:58 AM

#

Should I swap Jean Bart's and Ulrich's guns?

scenic violet Jan 28, 2022, 2:58 AM

#

Yeah better use mk6 on uvh

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:58 AM

#

depends what limit break both ships are on

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:58 AM

#

UvH almost max, Jean Bart max

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:58 AM

#

if Ulrich has MGM+2, put JB's gun on her

#

if not, keep it as it is

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:59 AM

#

MGM means?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:59 AM

#

main gun mount

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 2:59 AM

#

How do I see that?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 2:59 AM

#

basically when she fires a salvo, she will fire 2 more after

#

you get one mount with first LB, another with max LB

rare orbit Jan 28, 2022, 3:00 AM

#

So, UvH at 2LB does not have MGM+2 (only +1)

#

So keep their guns where they are, I guess

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:02 AM

#

#

I send this to be easier to see what I have and the limit breaks

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:05 AM

#

rare orbit So, UvH at 2LB does *not* have MGM+2 (only +1)

Then should I swap? Would I lose too much damage with my Jean?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:05 AM

#

no, keep guns where they are

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:05 AM

#

Ok, I'm trying to give my Magde the setup you told me

#

I think I got this

#

Lvl 4 enough? Or lvl 6 needed?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:10 AM

#

if you can upgrade that main gun more it would be good, but that should be a significant improvement from the gear you had

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:10 AM

#

Main gun to lvl 6?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:11 AM

#

yes

#

higher if you can, as that gun is always a solid choice on any CL

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:11 AM

#

Good, and about Portland? I just came to the conclusion I have nothing good for her rn

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:12 AM

#

yeah

#

upgrade her main gun to +3 if nothing else

#

you could take Z-23's main gun and give it to portland as secondary gun

#

and give 23 this

#

upgrade to +6 if you can

#

that purple 120mm is actually pretty good

#

even with normal ammo

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:14 AM

#

Woah Z23 gun is good for Portland?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:15 AM

#

the 127 DP is just a good gun in general

#

would have more use on portland though, as it buffs her AA

#

and the purple 120 i said would be higher DPS on Z-23 than the 127 DP

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:16 AM

#

I see

#

And what main gun for Portland?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:17 AM

#

the gun you have on her is the best you have rn i think

#

its ok, but replace it when you get a gold german 203mm gun

#

until then upgrade to +3 at least

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:20 AM

#

Good

#

And about Jean Bart and Ulrich

#

Their second gun, what purpose does it accomplish?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:21 AM

#

secondary gun is for shooting suicide boats, and others that get too close

#

the one you have on Ulrich isn't bad, but you don;t really have anything better to replace it with either

#

same for your JB

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:23 AM

#

Good, and that third weapon? For planes?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:23 AM

#

yes, AA guns

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:23 AM

#

Good, I guess I don't really need to change that

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:23 AM

#

the one on JB is actually really good

#

Ulrich's AA gun would be better if it was gold, but you don;t have

#

and AA doesn't really become a significant problem until like W12

#

so it doesn't really matter for a while

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:24 AM

#

I see, I have time then

#

I have built now my Ulrich, Jean, Portland, Magde and Z23, right?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:24 AM

#

yes

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:24 AM

#

And what about my Hiyou Meta?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:25 AM

#

you really don't have much CV gear, tbh

#

best you could do is replace the fighter with an F4U

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:26 AM

#

May I replace then her?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:26 AM

#

and maybe take Yorktown's DB if you don't use her often

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:26 AM

#

I have a Warsprite

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:26 AM

#

honestly just put Yorktown in

#

Yorktown is a pretty decent CV

#

or, even better

#

you have an Essex

#

use her

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:27 AM

#

Good, but won't that be an issue because of lvl difference?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:28 AM

#

it would, but Essex just does more damage than Hiyou

#

would prob even out with Essex's barrage

#

and you should level Essex anyway, she's good

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:29 AM

#

This is what she has rn (I've never used her, I just level her up by commissions and dorm)

#

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:30 AM

#

you could just take the gear Hiyou has and throw it on her

#

except replace the figher with that extra F4U you had

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:30 AM

#

F4U is the golden plane?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:30 AM

#

gold one you have is a Zero

#

might actually not be a bad idea,

#

considering the other options you have

#

and it buffs AVI by a bit, so Essex would do more damage

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:33 AM

#

Good! Like this?

#

Auxiliary equipment may be important?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:33 AM

#

yeah

#

steam catapults if you have them

#

but those planes are actually a pretty good loadout for what you have

#

that DB in particular is one of the best in the game

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:34 AM

#

I've got 2 but blues

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:34 AM

#

better than nothing

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:35 AM

#

Should I lvl them to 3 at least? Or a waste?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:35 AM

#

uhh

#

depends how many plates you have

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:35 AM

#

I have some good amount of normal plates

#

I don't really want to use blue or superior that much, but if I must, I do

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:36 AM

#

and if you have tech boxes, you could open them to see if you get purple steam catapults

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:36 AM

#

Oh, right, I got some lootboxes

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:36 AM

#

but if you have lots of grey plates, you could level to +3

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:36 AM

#

I've saved a lot

#

Should I open them all at once?

#

(of course craft lower levels into the purple ones)

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:37 AM

#

yes

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:38 AM

#

I opened "some" lootboxes

#

#

#

I have some golden ones, but I don't know if I should open them or not

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:45 AM

#

ehh, why not?

#

also you got some pretty good stuff

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:45 AM

#

Because of saving (?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:46 AM

#

saving for what?

#

unless you haven't done Akashi's quest yet, nothing needs gold boxes

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:50 AM

#

I'm not done yet

#

With Akashi, but I remember I already opened those boxes

#

I got this from opening them

#

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:52 AM

#

well, i see you have another MK-6 now

#

so you could throw that on Ulrich

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:52 AM

#

Mk-6 is that plane, right?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:52 AM

#

save the purple 410 for another ship (like hood)

#

MK-6 is the purple BB gun your JB has

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:53 AM

#

Oh, your right, so now no need to swap

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:54 AM

#

Tenzan is a good torp bomber too against slow moving targets, as they drop all torps directly on one target

#

so they can just nuke things

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:55 AM

#

Good for Essex in boss fight as nukers?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:55 AM

#

yes

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:55 AM

#

Great

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:56 AM

#

you could also give portland that purple quad bofors you got

#

that's a good AA gun

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 3:57 AM

#

Got it, give me a sec

#

Quad Bofors?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 3:59 AM

#

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:00 AM

#

Oh, thanks

#

I changed it

#

Now I think my fleet is completely different from what it was an hour ago

#

I will send last 6 pics of the ships now with their gear just to check

#

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:05 AM

#

honestly yeah, now it's just farming for upgrades from that gear

#

but those setups should actually work pretty well

#

you have good gear on them now

#

now go clap Bristol in that hard mode

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:06 AM

#

And an additional question, should I put an auxiliary of hp to Z23 and Magde?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:06 AM

#

both of Mag's auxs give health

#

Z-23 could do with a toolbox or rudder if you have one spare

#

anti sub gear is only needed on specific maps

#

also one last thing, where are your ships positioned in your fleet?

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:07 AM

#

I have some I got recently opening toolboxes

#

The anti aerial for Z23 is good?

#

I'll send you how I put my team

#

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:09 AM

#

Team positions are good TacoNod

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:09 AM

#

Good!

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:09 AM

#

Go try out your fleet against Bristol now

#

You should absolutely delete her now

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:10 AM

#

Now, it is time for vengeance PortDoll

#

EssexShock

#

Just, WHAT

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:15 AM

#

See what a difference gear makes?

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:15 AM

#

Jean Bart did more than the double damage she did before

#

And also Ulrich

#

But Z23 was mvp

#

What the hell, this is such a change

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:16 AM

#

That purple 120 is no joke TacoNod

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:16 AM

#

It took a time, but was literally a minute faster

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:16 AM

#

Honestly gear is absolutely everything in this game

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:17 AM

#

Last time 10 seconds more to lose, and now I had 1 minute and 14 seconds keft

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:17 AM

#

There you go!

#

Now you ready for higher level campaign missions too

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:18 AM

#

But I managed to miss some shelling with Jean, if I put it on automatic

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:18 AM

#

Jean will do that unfortunately

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:18 AM

#

Maybe I could get even better results?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:18 AM

#

She a little pepega aim sometimes

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:19 AM

#

I mean, she usually hits in automatic, but I choose manual because usually I do more damage by manually aiming

#

But this time I sucked at aiming, I got nervous and just nearly hit it

#

But still more damage than before

#

EssexShock

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:20 AM

#

Good gear really does wonders

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:20 AM

#

For real

#

And, THANK YOU SO MUCH

#

You literally boosted my fleet a lot, more than the double I may say

#

Now I think I will spam difficult on auto

#

The times they say, 30 times, right?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:22 AM

#

If you want all the rewards yes

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:22 AM

#

I pretty much want

#

Before I couldn't do C and D in Ulrich event because of my level

#

I won't miss content this time

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:23 AM

#

Well, you have a very powerful fleet now

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:23 AM

#

Honestly I'm surprised

#

Even Essex did some good damage

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:24 AM

#

Now you just need to watch oil cost

#

That fleet probably quite thirsty bukisip

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:24 AM

#

Not as much as Ulrich and Jean, but I bet she is already more or less the same as my Hiyou that is more than 20 levels higher

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:25 AM

#

Essex good

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:25 AM

#

Essex good

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:25 AM

#

And the more you level them, the less of them you need to clear eventually

#

So soon you could get oil cost down for events like this by only running 1:1

#

But that’s later on

#

For now, enjoy clapping everything in your path

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:27 AM

#

Like Ulrich and Portland only (?

#

If both had better gear and lvl 120 (?

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:27 AM

#

Yes

#

Honestly I’d say even with Ulrich at 90 and Z23 at 100 ish it might be able to be done

#

But then it comes to if it would be fast enough

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:28 AM

#

Oh, I see

#

Well, see you later, a lot of thanks for your help

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:29 AM

#

I still don’t run 1:1 for this, because I’m trying to do it with speed, so I’m using 1:2

serene wagon Jan 28, 2022, 4:29 AM

#

Actually I need to sleep, but I'll try to do the boss more times before sleeping

gray pumice Jan 28, 2022, 4:29 AM

#

Well, good talking to you

#

And if you need anything more, always willing to help!
