/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Is stacking your carriers with Tenzans a good idea?

>>11591258
Do you hate your bauxite that much?

The whole "E-3 is easier than E-2" is all a joke, right? ;_;

>>11591264
Not really, compass fucked me over more often in E3, the enemy itself is still easy except that fucking single submarine on the north route.

>>11591264
I said it before but now i regret what i've done.
Hp regeneration is the most annoying shit.

>>11591264

No. most people have leveled up BBs/CVs which can be used on e3. e2 requires ships people usually don't have at high levels and night time crits are more common.

e3 is only hard if you're running a bad composition and are getting sent to dead end nodes.

>>11591263
I paid 40 for that fight.

Huh, Kumano's voice doesn't really fit.

>>11591286
What do you mean? Whats wrong with her voice?

>>11591286
I think it fits her pretty well (except for the night combat part). I have her as my flagship for a pretty long time now.

Imo Furutaka is the one who has a voice completely not matching the character.

>>11591302
I thought furutaka's was pretty cute and fitting, cant say about kumano because I don't have her and trying to craft for her would be retarded with the event going on

>>11591296
Feels a bit too deep to me. I was expecting more of a high schooler pitch like Suzuya with ojou flavor.

The sleepy idle sounds she makes are cute, though.

>>11591306
Well I for one wouldn't expect a half cyborg tomboy to sound cute.

>>11591309
The gap makes it cute.

>>11591307
And erotic as hell when on low volume. First time I heard it I thought I had some ero stuff left open in the background or something.

Please do not bully the Furutaka.

Honestly? Just make a new one if he spams this one to image limit. People in /jp/ make new threads all the time when their threads hit limit. If it's "shitting up /jp/" that you're worried about, we already have plenty of determined autists ho have that as a full-time job. Nobody will notice or care.

>>11591325
Really? I prefer it over the personal blogging that has taken over especially since the event started. At least they're worth looking at instead of yet another screencap.

>>11591325
Who gives a shit about the image limit

It's not even a big deal

You should be able to discuss the game without feeling the need to share a image nobody cares about. If you really have to show a image just outsource it. We've done it before

So has anyone got Agano yet?
Is she a random drop from E maps?

>>11591341
Random drop from E-3

Enjoy farming it

>>11591341
She drops from the boss node E3-5 maps

>>11591333
I care about the image limit, as this is an imageboard. I don't feel the need to pretend we're using a textboard just because /jp/'s most persistent shitposter is doing work on this thread.

>>11591331
Then just go away, its simple.
The iron bottom event is going on, that means people will talk about the event and share their experiences in the thread.

If the guy wants to spam images then let him spam images, people will make a new thread when the image and post limit is reached and nothing will change.
Im surprised that the janitor is nowhere to be seen though, normally he would clear the spam and shitposting in record time, maybe he decided to take a break after all that work?

>>11591359
It's technically on-topic. It also takes our retarded friend three hours to full up the thread, so who cares. He'll have to do it for forty-eight hours straight before anything gets pushed off by Kancolle threads since we're already operating on nine and a half pages.

>>11591362
It's also spam, which is against the rules, and the moderator would be well within his rights to press one button and eliminate his three hours of work.

E-4 seems like it's the E-2 preboss node repeated over and over again. I'm wondering if I should take a few days of straight bucket farming before even trying it. I've only got around 64 and no type 3 ammo. Compounding this issue my BB are not very high (30 to 40). My current plan was try to farm up a few BB and CA, and hope that lets me at least get to the boss.

>>11591359
If we keep reporting the spam I think janitors will finally understand he's causing a disturbance.

What's that? Fight the boss?

You'd like that, wouldn't you.

>>11591362
Not really on topic since he's not adding anything to the thread, just spamming pictures and that belongs in /c/.

Its in the rules too
"10. No spamming or flooding of any kind. No intentionally evading spam/post filters."
And im pretty sure this shit counts as both

>>11591367
You should definitely take your time and prepare more, you still have 16 days. Don't rush and regret it.

>>11591371
Fuck E4, why did they have to put the sub reward on the hardest map of the event? That's just a horrible dick move

>>11591371
Don't tell me there's another ship requirement besides the two high speed battleships.

>>11591372
You're right. I was just so happy with my work up to this point that I thought maybe if I could somehow manage E-4 today then I'd have 15 days to somehow make E-5 happen. I guess I'll hold back and get more buckets and grind up Mutsu. I guess crafting a Nagato is a mistake since I'll need those resources for support expeditions.

>>11591362
Admit it, anon, you like all the Atago, don't you? I sure as hell do, though not when people actually have things to talk about. Image spam is good when conversation is at a lull.

>>11591383
I do too!

>>11591383
If nobody has anything interesting to say, it's fine if nobody posts. There's no need to make the thread active just for the sake of having an active thread.

I don't mind if somebody dumps their favorite pictures, but I'm pretty sure at this point he's just dumping the entire SFW content of Danbooru's kantai collection in order to ;push the threads into image limit because of some retarded ulterior motive.

>>11591396
People made a new thread because you spammed it into the image limit, and I'll make a new one if you demolish this thread as well.

>>11591385
Oh look, our resident spambot can speak!

>>11591387
>There's no need to make the thread active just for the sake of having an active thread
This.

The old thread is on page 3, which will take nearly a week before it's bumped off, due to how slow /jp/ is, and how off-topic threads get deleted quite often.

>>11591385
I feel bad for it but I don't like Atago much at all. I've never been a fan of the mama types.

>>11591395
Name-calling isn't very nice.

>>11591397
She's a flirty older sister type though. Houshou's the mom. And perfect yamato nadeshiko type wife to the admiral.

>>11591400
Shut up fagtron

>>11591400
What you're doing isn't very nice either. Why rile everyone up to make some obtuse point?
>>11591404
I guess it's more the body type than anything. I'm trying to overcome my prejudices however.

>>11591409
>to make some obtuse point
What do you mean? I'm contributing to the thread, and from the looks of things, it's more than you are.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYtUuwW7siM
I've been watching E-4 clears to get an inspiration on how to clear it and this run with 4 throwaway DDs and 2 Kongous proves just how ridicolous RNG really is.

>>11591409
My seaplane tenders have been remodel ready for a while now, but I think I'm going to keep them as is because I find their new assets to be somewhat... unreasonable.

>>11591412
You're the same poster who keeps spamming that "english patch where" and "kancolle, like league of legends, is garbage" shit, and your only goal is to frustrate these threads off the board.

>>11591421
>You're the same poster who keeps spamming that...
Well, maybe you should think again, because I've never said any of those things. I love kancolle, but cannot legally play it, so the next best thing I can do is to fantasize over it's characters.

>>11591426
Highly unlikely. Anyway, I've emailed the mods about it, and if if turns out you're not the same person who's been trying to demolish these threads for weeks, I'm sure you'll get off no harm done.

>>11591412
My contributions to this thread can't be spoken about (or announced) because of the site's rules.
>>11591426
This really is a lot of thrashing because you can't wake up early in the morning. I use a smartphone alarm app that forces me to answer math questions before it turns off. Just get a good nights rest and you'll be up in time for the lotto.

Does E-3 boss drop Agano randomly at any time or do I have to clear the map (unlock E-4) before the boss can drop her? In any case, I assume an S victory is required, or is A acceptable too?

>>11591436
>This really is a lot of thrashing because you can't wake up early in the morning
What does that have to do with anything?

Ok. I just cleared E3, and it took me 13 attempts. It's cheaper than E2 in some ways. It took about 4 hours in all.

My resources went from
55814/54065/65841/60899 to
53668/53150/65865/59759

Net cost, including repair: 2146/915/nil/1140, running expedition 2,3 and 6 concurrently.

Bucket use was 29. My figure for E2 was 25 attempts, 2500 oil 4800 fuel or so.

So, who has better fuel tanks? Agano class or Takao class?

>>11591451
Only thing that could stop you from playing is an inability to wake up for the lottery. Obviously you've got no respect of law and order given your posting habits.

>>11591461
Takao. Atago's atagoes are the best.

>>11591468
>Obviously you've got no respect of law and order given your posting habits
I'm not sure why you would imply something like that, I think my posting habits are fine. Like I've said, I can't legally play the game, so the next best thing I can do is fantasize over it's characters.

>>11591461
I like how chubby (Japanese standards) Agano is, and her fuel tanks complement her body perfectly.

This is the map of the ironbottom sound when the stages are superimposed. It doesn't match the sealane exactly, but I guess we start from Sealark island and work our way to where Kirishima sank.

>>11591506
Don't talk to it. It'll make you stupid.

>>11591479
It's nice to have you confirm how bitter you are with regards to your bad luck in the lotto. Who knows what awful screaming and kicking we'd have to deal with if you actually were playing the event like the rest of us.

>>11591506
>It's nice to have you confirm how bitter you are with regards to your bad luck in the lotto
I have zero desire to play the game, because it's against the law to do so. If it weren't for japan, this game would've never come out in the first place, nor would any of the characters. I respect them enough to wait for the LN/anime to come out, because I don't want them to suddenly decide to scrap the whole thing one day due to how much foreign traffic they get.

>>11591516
>I don't want them to suddenly decide to scrap the whole thing one day due to how much foreign traffic they get.
I-I'm r-really not the guy guy who has been trying to ruin these threads all along, I s-s-swear!

>>11591507
You're totally right, oh well. It was fun for a bit, too bad to see he's not even a new sped.

>>11591526

>>11591516

You say traffic like it's a bad thing. Lots of non-Japanese teitokus splurged on some DMM points. I'd say enough to cover the cost of additional load on the servers and then some.

>>11591531
whoops

I have no way to physically prove that I'm the same person, so I guess you'll have to take my word for it; but I haven't posted on /jp/ or even visited it in about a month now, and most of that month was spend fantasizing over kancolle.

>>11591534
Well I have no money to spend on stuff like that, so I'll wait.

Well, I wouldn't field Atago for the event. Tone, Maya would be better choices. Even Mogami is better in some cases since she's CAv.

>>11591541
Too bad no one will offer you a salary to ruin threads on /jp/

>>11591549
>ruin threads
Says the person spouting meta constantly.

>>11591502
We could call the high level flagship, bunch of suicide shields the Vella Lavella strat.

>>11591547
Atago's not likely to get any bonus until Leyte Gulf event comes up. That would give bonus to Yudachi, Shigure, Yamashiro and Furo perhaps.

>>11591562
lewder

> 6 destroyers in E-4, kill everything except the boss bitch.

Atago actually received a refit which boosted her AA by the removal of her 3rd turret (got 2x high angle guns instead. So don't despair about no kai2 for the Takao class.

What do i need for Expedition 35,36?

Stop. You're going to make RJ cry.

Stop. This is Atago now.

It's not that much smaller than the CA Atago. 10000 tons full load and all.

>>11591601
>>11591599
Not lewd enough

http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=37484945

Stop, This is Soryu now.

>>11591561
Actually Atago is a extremely popular pick for this event

I've been using her exclusively through E-1 to E-4 and plan on taking her to E-5

Why aren't you watching JAV with other japanese people?

tinyurl com/ m59dgjg

post your interesting nico lives I guess

More Kongous. I wonder what part of Arpeggio will kancolle implement into the game. I guess I'll come in a form of a wall poster or some other furniture.

>JAV
What the hell anon, why am I watching this stream of a girl licking the camera this is disgusting.

>>11591638
Agreed. This thread needs to be more Engrish.

>>11591536
>I haven't posted on /jp/ or even visited it in about a month now, and most of that month was spend fantasizing over kancolle.
And that's why you're so tired of people posting their E-2 setups? The least you could do is come out and admit what an obtrusive faggot you're being if you can't even keep your story straight. I guess you expect people to believe that you're just a humble autist who agrees no discussion is better than any at all.

>>11591638
You know, remodeled Kongo is starting to grow on me. Her style strangely reminds me of Dowman Sayman, and that is a good thing.

>>11591676
Who did the art for the remodel anyways?

Where are the superior American battle ships?

>>11591682
The original artist

>>11591689

>>11591699
That has nothing to do with American ships.

>>11591706
That is the model of the USS Albacore. That is American and that is a submarine, a naval vessel.

Therefore, that has plenty to do with American ships.

>>11591706
The ship in the case is the USS Albacore.

>>11591711
I just noticed it said Albacore on the box. I'm stupid.

>>11591706
>>11591711
>>11591712
let me spoonfeed you with this tidbit. Albacore sank Tenryu,

>>11591706
Damn, you need to brush up on your history.

Trying to win a spot with the lottery, getting this error. pls help.

>>11591730
There isn't even any lottery at this time, what are you on about?

>>11591730
Perhaps you should re-read the wiki page carefully

25 more until new thread.

I didn't know this was a Hanabira thread.

>>>/c/

>>11591760
Or you can just delete some of the older pictures.

>>11591760
I'm kinda surprised that the janitors are asleep. I've reported pretty much every image so far and nothing happened.

>>11591769
Why would you delete image from imagedump thread?

What image limit?

>>11591779
I understand that you are being ironic, but someone will come in and take you seriously.

Who do I have to choke to get a Mikuma that I will never use?

>>11591776
Because imagedump is practically all over /jp/? Though hey, if we make a thread after image limit, soon Kancolle will flood this board more than ever.

>>11591805
Well they usually were pretty active when cleaning up Kancolle threads from shitposters.

>>11591823
>>11591818
Seriously this isn't enough for my erection

>>11591814
Assuming the imagedumpbro doesn't sleep, it takes roughly 3 hours until image limit, which means we could have 8 Kancolle threads in a day. That's impressive, and more Kancolle is always better.

>>11591830
I know man

He should at least post the semi-lewd stuff

Tenryuu the prettiest.

Shit man, all of those imagedump. Poor imagedumpbro.

Oh, this is silly. I meet the E-4 boss for the first time and my team takes out the five surrounding her without touching her at all.

I don't understand life anymore.

>>11591860
Didn't happen on E-2? Lucky you.

Please delete this thread if you can OP

The other thread is fine

>>11591860
You could pass the F node and go into boss node, that's really an achievement. I envy you, now approaching 50 tries with no boss node.

>>11591860
What is your team setup?

>>11591885
Shigure could have taken out the last one so Kirishima could mic check the boss, but everyone focused on her. This was a lucky run, though.

Magical thread shrinking powers!

>>11591903
it's really weird to see a shitload of topic-relevant stuff just vanish.

>>11591914
A self-righteous attempt to change something by some shitposter isn't really topic-relevant

>>11591914
Only for secondaries. I bet you also don't play Touhou and only enjoy its doujins.

>>11591929
>playing 2hu
People still do this?

>>11591849
Sorry, but that would be Murakumo.

>>11591698
Can't be. The art style for the eyes and hair is way too different compared to the original one. Heck, compare her damaged art with the new one, and it is quite obvious.

>>11591934
Don't you have some being ignored to go do Haruna?

>>11591942
But it's true.

>>11591943

I did it... I cleared E-4 after 18 hours... (slept 2x3hours).

Now unto stockpiling resources to take on E-5... I think I've become a slave driver.

Total bill:
- 35k fuel
- 30k ammo
- 32k steel
- 0 bauxite?
- 200 buckets
- 3 repair crew
- 1 repair goddess (was consumed in the very final battle... and it DID help)

Now I'm sitting on 300 buckets, 5 repair crews and 1 goddess.
But resources wise, I'm down under 1k fuel... The next two weeks are gonna be all about fuel farming...

>>11591942
Did you know that the same artist drew all the Kongous, all the Asashios, all the normal Kagerous (not Yukikaze), the cranes, Zuihou, half of the Nagaras, and probably something more I'm missing?

>>11591972
Those poor shipfus, I hope you feel terrible for sending them out to have something like that happen to them.

>>11591972
hell, maybe it'd be really better off trying to do E4 with just throwing fodder DD with two Kongou sisters in the mix to clear it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYtUuwW7siM

>>11591977
With the hell they've been all day long, I don't think it mattered that much anymore (I still sent them full sparkling).
Everyone was green health except Haruna who was in red zone when boss battle started.

But yeah I do feel bad about my daughters

How many of you actually like how the new Kongou-Kai2 looks?
I certainly don't. I would've put the new image for early Kongo versions and put the old one for Kai2, so that teitokus would have to work to get the goddess of Valhalla.
Now teitokus work to get something like Naka-chanV2.

>>11591994
Normal Kongou-Kai = Normal Kongou-Kai2
Damaged Kongou-Kai >>>> Damaged Kongou-Kai2

The only good thing from Kai2 is those new voicelines.

>>11591972
You did well.
Now put I-8 as flagship and click on her a bunch of times.

E-2 is an annoying hell. I don't renember how many times I did that map, only to get critted in the anteboss node or have to withdraw because Imuya is in red. I know that I have enough days to beat the boss, but it's still annoying as hell.

Oh yeah, sorry if this post it's blog shitposting, but I need to release my rage in someway.

>>11592069
I've been making a list of E-2 bullshit:

-Fully glittered submarine is crit to red on first node
-Submarine dodges nothing, CAs dodge everything
-You get sent north
-Iku torpedoes boss for 20 damage
-The first half of the boss's health took 30 minutes, it's now 2 days later

>>11592076
What if the first half of the boss health took 30 minutes and the other half took me 15 minutes?

>>11592076
I been lucky because in 2 or 3 days that I tried to go to the boss node, the compass sent me to North only one (And casually my whole fleet had received no damage at all).

>>11592086
Consider yourself lucky. Or perhaps you have a better fleet than I have, but you are lucky anyway.

>>11592107
I was joking with that, E2 took me lke 3 to 4 hours to complete and E3 took me 6 hours and a lot of frustration.

Gave up on E4 because fuck that map, its probably easier and cheaper to wait for I-8 to become craftable and then go on crazy crafting sprees.

>>11592069
I almost completely quit playing partway through Saturday because of E-2's bullshit. I thought I was failing because my subs and DDs and CAs weren't leveled enough but had zero desire to grind them just to clear the map. Only thing that kept me going was seeing other people with lvl 80-90 fleets bitching about the RNG not letting them clear it, so at least I knew that grinding more was pointless and just continued to throw what I already had at the map. Actually, I downgraded as I went on, my final fleet that killed her included a lvl 35 Aoba and lvl 28 Nagatsuki. It's basically pure luck, using a sparkling sub with turbine was about the only thing that I felt made a real difference.

I don't know how many runs it took, but my lvl 50 Inazuma was lvl 53 by the end, and she wasn't in 100% of the time. Took me the entire fucking weekend to clear, then I finished E-3 in a couple hours.

I honestly have zero will to even attempt E-4 after that; I have about 18k resources and over 500 buckets but the sheer amount of time it could require just horrifies me.

>>11592076
Seeing that boss finally explode was most satisfying. 104 runs of suffering and misery paid off. Now, E-3 is being shitty.

E2 is actually really easy if you're willing to be a godless communist and send sparkling orange ships to the boss.

Last night was a nightmare.

Wasted 20k of everything, a repair crew, and KTKM with nothing to show for.

I guess better luck next week.

>>11592120
Fairly early on I equipped repair crews on all my ships so I could do that (more for peace of mind than expecting to need them). With a flagship sub, the boss herself is the only thing that can hit your other ships, so there wasn't even much chance of wasting a repair (and I never did despite sending red damage ships into the boss fight a few times).

>>11592141
I wish I was that lucky, I sent two ships in red to fight for the first time and both were sunk.
They were level 1 destroyers but still.

>>11592086
>>11592107
>>11592121

I forgot to add:
-Maya crit to orange on the second node

>>11592139
RIP in peace KTKM.

A reminder from the Admiralty that plebeians need not apply for E-5 and Musashi.
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm22182746

>>11592171
But E4 is harder than E5

Is it worth sending extra sparkled ships on long expeditions for the additional chance for great success?

>>11592175
It is VERY advised to send all sparkled ships on long expeditions.
I send sparkled ships on any expeditions(even the 30 min ones).

Will the compass fuck you if you bring two battleships to E-2? I'm going to try and cheese E-2 with a historical reenactment but I'm not sure it'll work.

>>11592184
i bet you know where to find the answer!

>>11592184
I don't know. But I bet the wiki does.

>>11592191
>>11592192
The answer was no. Thanks for the help, guys.

Okay, so I need to get three levels on Haruna, five levels on Zuiho, and fifty-seven levels on Shigure before I can make this happen.

>>11592181
I meant additional ships that exceed the requirement, like 2SS4DD for #27 which only needs 2SS.

>>11592199
you're shooting yourself directly in the cock with that lineup for E-2. if you were doing E-3 with that it would be a different story.

>>11592203
I just want Zuikaku and Zuiho to tank everything with their forty luck and +26 evasion I'm adding on top of that. I think I can make it happen.

>>11591922
so kancolle pictures aren't relevant to kancolle. riiiight.

>>11592202
Unfortunately empty slots count as non-sparkling ships for the chances of getting a great success.

>>11592181
Holy shit, I would go insane trying to do that many 1-1 runs. I only use sparkles for expedition 16.

>>11591929
...secondaries? are you seriously pulling a TROO FANZ arguement?

also for the record I suck at danmaku and stick to the fighters.

>>11592206
>>11592214
That's very late replies, spammer-chan.

>>11592206
He posted so many of them that they hit critical mass and caused a nuclear reaction that eventually annihilated most of the thread.

>>11592204
That's kind of what I did at the end, I figured since the map is pure RNG, I'd might as well use all the lucky ships I can and see if that helps. So I wound up running Aoba, Nagatsuki, and Zuikaku/Hiryuu to go along with the KTKM and Beaver I was already using. (subs had to get rotated though so it was actually Imuya and not Gouya in for the final battle).

>>11591943
>>11591954
Haruna doesn't mind being ignored, but she would like to be recognized for her effort at least sometimes.

>>11592243
Please go back to 2hus Reimu.

>>11592231
Does ship luck has effect on enemy ship's cut-in chance?

>>11592250
Not him, but mine does. Perhaps it's a placebo effect, but in E2 my Yukikaze did a cut-in possibly 9 times out of 10 tries, whereas my Shimakaze did only probably 4 or 5.

I just fought with some dude E4 fleet.
Why do people put 20.3/15.5 on them instead of torpedo?
I thought torpedo is only useless on the boss? They can still shoot scrubs with them right?

>>11592263
Double attack is more reliable.

>>11592263
Because with a torpedo you can shoot scrubs, and with two guns you can shoot the boss AND scrubs. I have no idea what you're possibly thinking.

>>11592263
you *want* everyone to focus on the boss and ignore the creeps, so skip the torpedo all the way.
and combo attacks = more reliable than cut-in, you want consistency over damage spikes

>>11592265
Now I am not sure about the probability since I am still training up my CA and stockpiling ammo, but if they torpedo the scrubs before my kongous turn, the kongous will then have higher chance of blasting the boss with sanshiki?
Judging from E-2 boss fight rng behavior, they almost never shoot the boss until she is the last one standing.

>>11592274
It's not like a double attack won't kill those ships just as dead.

>>11592274
most ships double attacks can kill pretty much anything at night.
Also focusing only on the creeps = higher chance to kill the day battle creeps

I was hoping for someone who hasn't done the end card illustration yet (Shizuma), but a Konishi is fine, too.

I am the one complaining in this >>11592076
post. You can add "cleared it with a perfect S" to that list.

Any info about big construction feature yet?

Is development dependent on the flagship level or HQ level?

Pretty sure few weeks ago it says flagship lvl, but now it says HQ lvl, and I feel like I'm not making anything useful so far

>>11592415
Both.

>>11592415
Recent research tells only HQ level matters.
I still use highest lvl ships tho.

despite her high luck, my fleet's yukikaze routinely get critted in node A and I to the point that she'd never see E-2 boss.

>>11592282
the only pleasure i got from E-2 is having CV and her planes dropping freedom bomb on the boss.

the fuck?

>>11592506
thanks for the repost.

My favorite enemy type is the wo-class aircraft carrier. Please post pictures of wo-class aircraft carriers.

inb4 janitor delete 100+ image posts

>>11592570
Just wait for the autist to go away or the janitor to come back, both work.
I personally would prefer the second one, we really need those magical thread shrinking powers again.

Pretty sad the autist didn't even play the game but tried to police the thread when people 'blogging' about the game

I'm having trouble at E-2. I can't seem to force Day Battle at boss node and I sink everyone while not even getting to hit the actual boss.

>>11592581
2nd or 3rd ship must survive, at least that's what I get from JP source.

>>11592576
>tried to police the thread
I don't think he really cares and is just trying to be ironic.

>>11592581
At least one of the elites have to survive to trigger the day battle at the boss node.

>>11592571
>>>/c/2107372

>>11592587
>>11592583
Gotta tell my DD's not to sink everyone, but the boss then.

>>11592576
I think the actual sad part is that none of you can make up your minds what you want in these threads. you've all at one point or another bitched about one type or post or another. and are you really so bad at coming up with insults that the most insulting thing you can come up with is to call someone autistic?

>>11592600
heh, the autist got mad

>>11592600
shut up autist

>>11592597
Good luck with that, your fleet intentionally aims at the wrong targets.

>>11592600
I want to discuss the game and not deal with all this meta shitposting brought on by autists that has zero relevance and makes me wonder if you even play it. If it offends you so badly that people are bringing up their experiences clearing a limited time event that's stupidly difficult and began less than a week ago then maybe you should just leave until it's over. Or maybe you could just not come back.

>>11592611
he already admitted he doesn't play it and is just upset that we do. obviously really upset now that janny won't even let him throw his tantrum.

>>11592611
He does not play the game, he didn't even try the lotto because "You cant play this legally outside japan" and he "Respects them enough to wait for the anime and game"

He's just having fits of autistic rage in the thread and trying to ruin it for everyone

So we're still allowed to post cute pictures of kanmusus right? You guys are just mad because that guy was shitposting about game discussion?

Hows everyone preparation for E4 going?
Still have like 4days to stockup on resources, sanshiki and level.

>>11592597
I had that problem too. If it really bothers you, just stick in a couple CVs. Now it's almost guaranteed that an elite will survive, since (as far as I saw), the bottom enemies tend to block for the flagship first.

>>11592620
Finally cleared e4, but a word of warning to anyone trying, do be sure to have plenty of resources. I thought starting at 17k fuel would be enough, and I used maybe 10k up draining the entire bar, but I could not get the sink in until all my remaining fuel was used up, and I had to resort to sub slaving while making one attempt to sink her every couple hours.

Hope your luck is better than mine~

Having a hard time in E-1, I'm using 4 BBs and 2 CLs, I get node B every time and only once I was able to sink the subs (That time also defeat the boss) rest of time, my CLs don't damage enough the subs before they let my BBs critical. CLs level are 12 and I use line abreast.

>>11592620
Trying to pile up resources while crafting for sanshiki and 46 cm. I'm not even sure which one I should prioritize first at this point.

>>11592635
How many sanshiki did you run it with?
I plan to get one more for my CA before I even try to make an attempt at it.

>>11592642
the sanshiki should be the priority. Then resources (at least 20k).
46cm are a luxury you can go with 41cm

>>11592635
Damn, how do you even pass those CA and BB nodes?

>>11592620
Currently at 3 sanshikidan, wanted another one to make it 4, planning to run it with Kongou (61), Haruna (61), Maya (34), Chokai (36), KTKM-sama (64), Ooicchi (56)

Still on process on leveling Maya and Chokai and currently on on 13k/12k/30k/12k 200 bucket, planning to do it once I hit 18k+, so maybe in 2 days, would that be enough /jp/?

>>11592639
Don't use 4 BBs, you won't get the sub node. It's overkill anyway, it will eat through your resources needlessly. Throw in a carrier or heavy cruiser instead of going crazy with battleships.

>>11592639
drop another BB for a DD or CL if you need to. use depth charges if you have them.

>>11592645
Okay, thanks a lot. I've only tried around fifteen times and only one sanshiki, I'll try more tomorrow because my crafting luck sucks today.

>>11592614
It's funny because the devs said they had no current problems with filthy gaijins playing on their servers.

>>11592653
It does beg the question why they allow DMM to block foreigners from playing their game though.

>>11592653
Is it something like 'we're fine, but don't expect support from us'

>>11592649
>>11592650

Thanks I'll try remove a BB for Zekamashi

>>11592635
I am a bit worried about the supplies that I will need to deal with E-4. Moreover, the avg level of my ships are really low.

I have no BB at Lvl 50. Kongou is 43 and Haruna at 38. I have 4x 46cm and 2x sanshikidan, but that's really not enough. KTKM is only about 53.

Worst of all, I am a part of the "no CA" club. Maya got me through E3 at Lvl25, and that's all I got.

I am down to 381 buckets right now. Need to recuperate from E3 for the time being.

Currently preparing for E-3, I heard people saying it was easy compared to E-2, but I'm scared of the compass and that I don't have many resources or good planes for my CVs. I'm not sure if It's better to stack my resources, or just use most of it to try to get better planes. Currently at 8k/8k/25k/6k. I didn't expect to get pass E-2 so easily without any problems.

>>11592667
You should build your reserve to at least 12k imo. It took about 350 oil and ammo per sortie, and you might need about 15 sorties or so to finish it. You will chew through your bauxite doing E3, but honestly, your current supply would hold out as it is right now.

>>11592654
Attention from foreign media could be bad. I doubt they want to handle customer service through a language barrier, either.

>>11592667
E3 is really fucking easy.
As long as you have 1BB 3CV/CVL + whatever, you can just keep spamming E3 over and over again.
I did it with tenzan, type52 fighter and suisei.
You can even run it with 4CV/L since bauxite is not important at all.

>>11592667
>>11592673
Depends a lot on what his fleet looks like. I did E3 pretty cheaply with 1 BB 1 CV 2 CVL 1 CLT 1 CAV. Don't think I ended down more than 1k for the day.

>>11592635
Sanshikidan is stonewalling me, i suspect because my admiral level is only 72, 50+ crafts and I only have 2 of them using the 10/90/60/30 which everyone recommends.

resources sitting at 17/11/13/12k respectively, and 50 or so development materials left, running 2/5/13 for the ammo and 12/13/14 overnight for ammo and steel.

fleet is mostly in the 50s or low 60s besides Kirishima, but I will take a week or so to stockpile and craft giving time to get her up to speed.

>>11592667
I recommend at least 12k fuel/ammo and 10k bauxite, E-3 is a far more resource intense node due to the heavier ships and lots of chip damage.

and beware the compass trolling the crap out of you with B-C-D-F-E-J routes, your fleet will be so out of ammo it will have trouble damaging things, especially if you bring lots of carriers as their performance takes a huge dive when even low on ammo.

>>11592681
But DMM has an Eng site. Then again, the idea of Imperial Japan ships as cute girls is already a a pile of explosives waiting to explode should it reach Western publicity.

>>11592685
not him, but also preparing for E-3. what did you usually have killing the boss? i'm planning on running 2CV 1CVL 1BB 1CA 1CLT/CL and wondering who to put in what slot.

>>11592687
you could try 10/90/90/30 unless you're really tight on steel. my T-level is 40 and i got 3 of them in my first 12 crafts (BB flagship).

>>11592693
CV/CVL
Cant count on BB since she likes to target weaksauce.

>>11592686
I am this guy up here. >>11591452

E3 is really all about the compass. Nothing else. I think it got a bit expensive for me due to fielding 3x CV instead of 2, but it wasn't bad at all.

>>11592644
I ran with 4 at first while draining the meter, then switched to a 1clt/3bb/2ca team with 5 sanshiki's when trying to sink.

>>11592647
Pure luck.

>>11592666
Levels are less important since the map is entirely night battles. I know of someone that's been slowly draining the bar using nothing but throwaway ships at level 1 along with a sub, but that method is quite heartless!

>>11592687
For whatever it's worth, I used 10/90/90/30 for my crafts.

The Mark 48 Mod 7 Common Broadband Advanced Sonar System (CBASS) torpedo, in use by the United States Navy since 2008, is the most versatile armament of it's kind. It is equipped with a 650 pound high explosive warhead, an effective range of 23 miles, and a top speed of 55 knots.

>>11592700
I know this game relies much on RNG, but I never tought before it could be this bad. That's one hell of flawed design, if I could say.

>>11592708
*thought
Fuck, time to bed. Endlessly doing E-4 is bad for my biological clock.

>>11592708
Keeps cheaters at bay and adds artificial "longevity" to the game so they can profit off of hate money. And it worked!

>>11592700
>I know of someone that's been slowly draining the bar using nothing but throwaway ships at level 1 along with a sub, but that method is quite heartless!
Meaning?
1SUB
3 throaway DDs
2 high lvl kongous? I mean lvl1 kongou doesnt grow on tree.

>>11592708
>>11592711
It really makes you think that hard work means shit, all you need is luck and the resources to keep trying til you complete it.

>>11592711
I never see any cheat since that chink cheats few months ago. Bots and macros are quite numerous, though.

>>11592708
Emergency repairs do help a lot though, they basically make only the first two nodes the dangerous ones that can send you home. The one ca in the first node and the group in the second can still ruin your day, but the BB node dangers can be ignored if everyone's covered with repairs. Time to hate money!

>>11592712
Not that anon, but you got the picture. I saw the vid on Nico.
