Help choosing ship to raise

[heavy trellis]

test

[sweet fiber]

Centaur, Sandy, Enty and Vanguard are the best in your fleet

[heavy trellis]

That's all the ship I got

[sweet fiber]

Get Ark Royal to lvl 125 asap, best backline carrier support

retro her as well

[heavy trellis]

So for now I gotta pause trying to advance the story and farm 8-4 raising ark royal? who else should I build since I'm low on gold bulin

[sweet fiber]

Ark royal won't take gold bulins, her retrofit might take one gold bulin maybe

[heavy trellis]

Yeah I mean the other ships

Do I need to raise other ships other than ark royal for now? Since (CMIIW) OpSi needs 4 fleet no..?

[sweet fiber]

You have a fleet good enough to take out world 10 as well

[sweet fiber]

4th fleet isn't really necessary unless you want to defeat the Bosses (central)

Retrofit Helen

You will need BBs for world 10 because they are filled with suicide boats

[heavy trellis]

So hood enty portland vanguard unicorn helena swiftzure centaur sandy tosa then ark royal kinda must build then all the other ships invest moderately?

[sweet fiber]

Monarch , Unicorn and Vanguard fleet for backlune

[sweet fiber]

Don't invest in certain ships

Most epics aren't worth investing

[heavy trellis]

So for now just focus on the one that u said earlier + ark royal and helena for now?

[sweet fiber]

Mob fleet- Monarch, Vanguard, Unicorn- Prinz Eugen, laffey, x

X can be any moderately tanky ship

[heavy trellis]

How about the boss fleet?

[sweet fiber]

For boss fleet: Enty, Centaur, Hood (hood is only for the suicide boats) - Portland, Sandy, Helena

[heavy trellis]

So if by chance the stage got not many of suicide boats then change hood.. is it?

[sweet fiber]

Put swiftsure in the x position

[heavy trellis]

I see

[sweet fiber]

It most probably would have, but keep leveling Ark. She is a must in CV boss fleets- I use Shinano, Ark and Hakuryu

[heavy trellis]

About azur lane, is it better to raise all ships or only few ships. Since I came from arknights where every unit function so I'm quite lost on fleet building stuff on azur lane

So the 2 fleet u mention are kind of general use fleet then when a content requires specific fleet like for example airplane fleet then use ark royal etc, is that it?

[sweet fiber]

I use only few ships so I level them up, the others I put them in commisions and stuff and they gain levels by themselves

[sweet fiber]

Use the fleets to clear 10-4 and if you can clear one 11 stage 3 stars , then when you clear them they give you 2000 coins as wellper clear

[heavy trellis]

So basically the progress are gated by gold bulins for gold ships?

Then try to farm BIS gear instead of using transitional gear when in stage 11?

[sweet fiber]

You should retire most of your rares and epics , then use the medals to purchase gold bulins in the medal shop

[sweet fiber]

Most of the BiS gear is crafted rather than found

[heavy trellis]

So I don't need to keep a copy of em for fleet tech/PR ships?

[heavy trellis]

The craft part is from OpSi right? do I just need to overlevel ship or use specific ships on it

[sweet fiber]

You can level them up, but after a month or two of playing you will have enough SSR ships to get fleet tech

[heavy trellis]

Dang.. There are so many ships I'm quite lost on what to keep

[sweet fiber]

You will get parts from Siren strongholds and Bosses. You will have to form BB and CV fleets because some of those bosses have 100% resistance to either bb damage or cv damage

[heavy trellis]

So for now It's better to make those ships u mentioned lvl 125 then starts to raise other ships to prepare for OpSi is that it..?

[sweet fiber]

Yes, siren strongholds are easy. Do them with some good fleets and you will get results

[heavy trellis]

About the stage

Do I try to push the story as high as possible with those ships then grind first so all of them got lvl 125?

[sweet fiber]

I have unlocked 369 ships but keep around only 180 for all my stuff. Most of them are lvl 1-30

[heavy trellis]

And from then I started to raise other ships u mentioned like ark royal etc

[sweet fiber]

Yes, push till 11 world

[heavy trellis]

To push for OpSi

?

[sweet fiber]

Yes

[heavy trellis]

Ahh thank you

So basically it's kinda timegated by gold bulins if the shop already finished..?

And is there any other purple/blue ships I need to build other than helena retrofit which already in progress and then ark royal?

[sweet fiber]

There are many

Should I show you my dock to show which ships I have built

[heavy trellis]

Sure if it's okay with you. Also for PR ships, is it better to build them all or not? I'm quite loss with it also. Currently I only have monarch and trying to get roon just because shes an iron blood

[sweet fiber]

I am an Iron Blood enthusiast, so I built Roon first. She is a good ship, a heavy damage tank. Build PR ships as you grow

From the 5th pic, you will see ships are at level 70 because I didn't level them up, just put them in commissionz and they gain exp

[heavy trellis]

I see.. last question If it's fine, Do I need to keep on lvling ships that I already leveled? Like phoenix indomitable tosa belfast jervis? and other gold ships I got. Also is submarine good to build or it's more of an end game stuff

[sweet fiber]

I started with maxing Belfast. Phoenix you don't need to worry about. Level other ships tho

Submarines are mostly end game, even my submarine fleet is sub optimal and the gear is scattered

[heavy trellis]

Yeah I've been slowly raising the HQ slot to get more exp stuff to lvl other ships

But for now I guess Imma raise all those ships u mention minus the gold one since I'm kinda short on those gold bulin

Thanks for the help, I very much appreciate it

[sweet fiber]

Well then, can you shut this thread or does it automatically shut down

[heavy trellis]

Ah I don't know about the system
