trying to beat EX for the first time

[vague furnace]

Here

Main Fleet

Vanguard

[shadow fractal]

Helena where

[vague furnace]

Still lacking of Helena

[shadow fractal]

[terse fulcrum]

Port can’t really face tank…

do you have this gun? would be better for Ulrich

swap that blue rudder off portland give her another toolbox

get rid of the rudders, all of them

[vague furnace]

Triple 406? Give me a sec, but I thought purple one was better on UvH

[terse fulcrum]

Manjuu > anything for Port I feel

[scarlet folio]

he doesnt have zombie item yet

it is a problem

[terse fulcrum]

For reals is this team powerful enough to win?

Just gear wise

[vague furnace]

I don't know,

[terse fulcrum]

2k gold prob can’t instant +10 anything else

[scarlet folio]

he still has time to level up stuff

[vague furnace]

That can be fixed, but I need to know what to lvl up and what not

[terse fulcrum]

Right, go in and see how many bars you can take off the boss

[scarlet folio]

all the essex planes should be at +10

also consider swapping barracuda for a ryuusei

or junkers

I think its ez to hit that boss with them

[terse fulcrum]

The Essex aux too

[vague furnace]

You mean the one Warsprite has?

[scarlet folio]

YES

lvl 10 it and its nice

[vague furnace]

Good

Barracuda for Ryuusei? Give me a sec

[terse fulcrum]

Kinda triggering to see a 13 JB gun among these

[scarlet folio]

[vague furnace]

Green is the one?

[scarlet folio]

yep

of course also needs +10

[vague furnace]

And probably is going to be all +13 and then oathed

[scarlet folio]

maybe grind some regular maps for a while for resources

[vague furnace]

I see, I see, and then full toolbox for all vanguard ships?

[scarlet folio]

also that MLE gun for Ulrich and Ryuusei, feel free to +13 them even if you have plates

[vague furnace]

MLE?

[scarlet folio]

MLE

the gun that was on warspite

[vague furnace]

What is that?

Max limit enhance?

[small sentinel]

Name of the gun

[terse fulcrum]

Not a bad investment until you have the PR2 gun

[vague furnace]

MLE is the name of the gun?

Sorry

I'll level up to +10 at least

[small sentinel]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Triple_406mm_(Mle_1938_Prototype)

[vague furnace]

Because thanks to +13 all JB equipment I'm lacking of some golden plates

[scarlet folio]

+10 should do the job

[vague furnace]

And guns for vanguard are important? Or the only value of vg is to survive longer enough for the main fleet to kill it?

[scarlet folio]

the guns are actually good, just portland needs a different gun

like the one that Adalber has, do you have a second copy?

[vague furnace]

Both main and secondary?

[terse fulcrum]

There is torp meme and main fleet barrages to fight this, neither requires good vanguard guns 🧠

secondary for portland, but its low priority

[vague furnace]

Wdym by low priority?

Did I send it twice?

[scarlet folio]

shouldnt make a huge difference I mean, but yea, you have it so give it to portland

and main gun for portland is the one that Roon has

[vague furnace]

Good

So I have all I need for doing this, right?

[scarlet folio]

you need to +10 it all, gonna cost you a lot

[vague furnace]

Only I lack of gold

[scarlet folio]

I would feel a lot better if you had that zombie item
Do you have Hornet, Yorktown and Enterprise?

[vague furnace]

And what a bad timing that today I spent like 15k on retrofitting my Warsprite

[vague furnace]

All, but only Enterprise isn't MLB

I don't have golden bulins

[scarlet folio]

you can buy 2 in medal shop

[vague furnace]

Aren't they like 80 medals each?

[scarlet folio]

yea

there is still 8 days left of the event, you can farm up some resources

[vague furnace]

And also

I have made some changes, but not in level

But I'm supposed to get everything here at least +10 right?

Main Fleet

Vanguard

[scarlet folio]

very good, +10 it all

[vague furnace]

The gear is fine?

[scarlet folio]

yea, actually, maybe we could improve a little

[vague furnace]

What can we improve?

[scarlet folio]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Improved_Boiler#Type_3-0

do you have this?

[vague furnace]

I thought of UvH secondary gun

[scarlet folio]

we could use a couple of them, it makes the ships move faster

[vague furnace]

Purple?

[scarlet folio]

yea

one for Adalbert and one for Magdeburg

its speed+HP

will help you dodge

oh, the secondary for Ulrich, its just FP bonus, she doesnt reach the boss with the gun so

throw a random gold CL gun on her

for +45 firepower

[vague furnace]

Not in Portland?

[scarlet folio]

I guess you could
but I'm hoping that you get that zombie item on Portland, then its gonna be zombie+toolbox

if not then boiler + toolbox

[vague furnace]

Any interesting for UvH?

[scarlet folio]

that unused triple 155 second from left is good enough, its just for +45 FP

[vague furnace]

Good

[vague furnace]

I don't think I could be able soon

Maybe more in long term, that's why

[scarlet folio]

yeah, if not this EX, then there is always gonna be the next one lol

you have 8 days of the event too, thats quite a bit of time

invest in Vanguard and Helena at some point

[vague furnace]

Hello again, are you there?

I made some improvements

All +10

But yet for my the vanguard ships I still need to level up a bit

But it is not that important the gun, right? I need to make my ships to survive the most possible

So

So one repair tool and an improved boiler for all vg ships?
