/jp/ - Otaku Culture

First for my Maruyu just sunk Kongou.

>>11753000
Forum faggotry. What a great start.

Go back to /a/

>>11753012
Well at least it's been a good number of threads since we've seen the terms normies and paid pixiv artists.

>>11753018
Did he finally tired of it?

>>11753021
>>11753018
Hush, let's not even mention about it. And to the OP, it takes a quite a while to actually reach page 10. I suggest carrying on the discussion over the old thread.

>>11753027
I couldn't even load the old thread anymore.

This game is bad.

>>11752997
/kan/cer goes into /a/

>>11753044
>>11753017
Why would a game belong on /a/, and why are you trying this hard to fit in?

Just to confirm, if I send any carrier to 5-3, I get diverted to the sub node, right?

>>11753097
Why would you take carriers to 5-3.

>>11753097
No. You'll get diverted only if you send a slow ship. If you use a fast carrier, then it's fine.

That said, why do you want to use carriers in a night battle map?

>>11753097
There are slow and fast carriers, check the wiki.

>>11753103
>>11753102
Ahh, sorry.
How did I even forget that, sorry for being retarded.

playable in english when

>>11753152
Now, there are enough icons and numbers to play

Whats with /jp/ and this game?

What's the best place to farm Nagato, E-2 or E-3?

>>11753282
E-2. Please look at the japanese wiki for info on drops.

>>11753284
I'm sorry, it just that I can't take Maya's annoying voice.

Anyway I'll take the advice, thanks.

anyone know what the requirements for this quest are? it doesnt show up anywhere in the wiki.

>>11753184
Shit attracts shit.

>>11753298
B12...

>>11753298
Yes, it does. Please read the quest page again.

>>11753304
but I already completed that quest months ago, I didn't think it was repeatable. odd

>>11753309

funny because i just used inazuma as modernization before this and started freaking out

and now just got her as a construction drop literally 2 minutes later.

YADAYADACARNIVALDAYO-OOTTO

What was the upcoming C85 Iku doujin?

5-2 boss final form is /m/ as fuck.
I don't even go there.

>>11753436
thanks for the advice, marshal admiral sir

>>11753445
> marshal admiral
What?
I'm a rear admiral.

Also learn to capitalize.

This game is:

1) designed around appealing to normal people

2) awful

Just so you all know.

Here we go.

>>11753521
Thanks, got it.

>>11753521
The office has never looked this garish but I guess it's fine for the office to be like this on New Year's. Plus it's all free anyway.

Is there a difference in consumption between chiyoda normal and chiyoda kai?

>>11753576
1. wtf is consumption, be more specific
2. chiyoda has like 5 kai states, why do you even care
3. read the wiki
4. if you're planning daihatsu fleets, nobody on /jp/ has enough of them yet to matter.

>>11753597
Daihatsu stacking is a dead dream anyway once we found out it could only stack to 20%.

>>11753603
What about exp 15,18,35,36? Those seem good with daihatsu on carriers.

>>11753597
Obviously the non CVL chiyoda since they can use daihatsu.
wikiwiki has their CVL consumption but no seaplane tender consumption.
The english wiki only has their kai form consumption.

http://wikiwiki.jp/kancolle/?%B2%FE%C2%A4%B4%CF%C1%A5
http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/EliteCVL
Guess I will have to find it out myself when I get a new chiyoda/chitose.

>>11753603
Welp. I guess it still works with two Akitsu Marus on expeds that only have that much free space anyway.

>>11753028
Why would you reload the whole page on your toaster? Just update the damn thread.

Every time I hit that Begin Construction button on LSC, I get really nervous as my pulse rate intensifies. And then when I see a 4 hour timer I begin to cry. This LSC might be the end of me.

>>11753612
you missed wikiwiki's rate then. it's there, why haven't you memorized all the kanji for them, gosh.

What is the most efficient and bauxite friendly way to level up two CVs and a BB?

Right now I'm using all three of those ships together on 4-1, together with a DD, a CL and a SS.
Since my main priority is spending the least bauxite possible on this, I'm running the carrier with more plane capacity as flagship will all blues and leaving the other one completely empy.

>>11753612
why would you use that page

this is the supply page: http://wikiwiki.jp/kancolle/?%BB%F1%BA%E0

>>11753624
You stop giving them planes completely and bring 3 subs instead.

>>11753624
3-2, it's the most resource efficient per xp you're getting.

>>11753629
then they fail to get MVP and level slower.

>>11753632
Right now I'm at about 1500 xp and 20-35 bauxite per run, doesn't that equal what I'd get for two 3-2 runs in costs, assuming I do use one carrier of planes?
I guess I could do what >>11753629 says, but then I would have to go to 3-2 for sure, since I can't advance two nodes on 4-1 without running into submarines which I can't S-rank.

>>11753624
>>11753629
>>11753635
Try 15.5's.

>>11753632
You're thinking of 5-2.
3-2 is just the safest for everything smaller than a BB/CV.

>>11753624
Sent them to PVP with no plane.
You want to level fast? Send them to 5-2 with at least 80reppus.

am i seeing some other character?

>>11753668
Kancolle created side pigtail with Kitakami.

>>11753672
how bout the other girl?

>>11753672
The other girl looks like Ooi too, though.

>>11753672
The other girl also looks exactly like Ooi. I think that anon might be on to something.

>>11753668
That is certainly cute but it can also be a coincidence. Ooi isn't gay enough.

>>11753674
So who's the child

>>11753675
>>11753676
so is that their kid or something

>>11753674
>>11753675
>>11753676
Look more like Arashio than Ooi to be honest.

>>11753679
future admiral who's currently waiting for his kancolle game on ps vita to finish loading

>>11753679
He is the teitoku, getting a Hiyou on LSC.

>>11753624
2 green 2 red per carrier.

>>11753684
Is the ps vita game standalone or is it just a glorified flash client?

LSC is really scary addiction.

>>11753709
Extra 15% on your expedition resources is pretty delicious.

>>11753709
I wish I could sell my furniture for resources.

>>11753712
Is it really worth the 8 fuel/bar?

>>11753727
Put them on your chitoyo for Expedition15.
It is only 7/7 7/8 7/9. Worth to pay the extra 2ammo for easier sparkle.
300/400*.50*.15
Worth it?

>>11753732
Running fast expeditions 24/7 for maximum resources/h. The longest expedition I'll ever do is 9, maybe some others for maintenance. So daihatsu is pretty much useless for me I guess.

>>11753738
There is only 1short expedition that gives bauxite.
You either have to run the 5h or 12h ex concurrently for more bauxite.

>>11753738
You could just put her as your wildcard for 9 and enjoy 50 extra fuel. It's about as much help as using Mutsuki-class / subs for expeditions instead of regular DDs.

>>11753748
That's true. Well, I'm not exactly going to aim for her but I'll at least have something to look forward to when I inevitably fail to get 6.30 again.

Also Mutsuki class don't help at all for fuel consumption, only subs (and Yuubari for CLs) do.

KanColleViewer r98

Addition:
- Ship names (Taihou, I-401, Iona, etc)
- quest tab implemented, partial english information.
- screenshot function finally works.
- support proxy chaining (e.g. to sanaechan logbook).

Considering i haven't logged in for almost 2 weeks and the quest information is only half-done, let me know if there are problems (e.g. quest title in romaji but the details are still in japanese, missing ship names).

>>11753709
That's considered poor? That's more bauxite and ammo than I have every other resource.

>>11753758
Isn't Taihou 6:40?

>>11753767
What is this? Is it only windows 8?

>>11753770
Give me another 5 days and I'll drain that bauxite down to single digits just for you.

I really need to step up on hoarding. 5k/day is my limit and I don't know how others get up to 100k+ without being tempted to do really stupid stuff.

>>11753779
I get tempted to do stupid stuff every time im above 20k

And all I got from LCS is BB, BB, RJ and Maruyu

>>11753776
win 7 or 8

>>11753767
Is it identical to Grabacr's KCV?

>>11753709
I want to give up, but I can't. I've gotten pretty much every BB from LSC except Yamato. I feel like I'm close, so I can't help but throw an attempt every time my fuel regenerates up to 4000, knowing that I will inevitably fail. It's a horrible addiction. ;_;

New Admiral reporting for duty, I've been attempting E-2 For a while now with a mix of a BBV, two CVL, a few CA, Iona and the Tsundere Heavy Cruiser. I can't seem to get to the boss node without having one or two of my ships in critical damage thanks to those lasers.

Where did I go wrong ? I've been trying different formations, but every time Kirishima's node end up stopping me.

>>11753784
This. I can't ever get above 15k resources. How much should I be saving for midway?

>>11753795
As much as you can, but leveling ships should be a priority if you're new.

>>11753767
the quest thing is pretty sweet. i'll wait for the one with different bar colors because i'm on win7.

>>11753795
No amount is ever enough, so all the resources you can save.

Get all 3 CLTs leveled too and probably a bunch of CVs over 50-60 with holo planes

>>11753794

Just keep trying, it's just the good old RNG. I'm HQ level 22, cleared E-2 yesterday after 10 attempts. My four kill attempts were in a row, just use the bottom right formation on the nodes before the boss node.

>>11753795
That event is years away.
Just save 1week before the event start or is announced.

>>11753799
What ships did you use?

>>11753804

The two fog ships, Haruna, Hiei, Suzuya and Atago. I'm still pretty new myself so didn't even know CLTs existed until this event.

>>11753806
Dont care, I'll be buying the vita game and enjoying it

>>11753779
Different anon here, but why do you even need 5 days? 5 minutes should be more than enough time.

what're we gonna do when the vita game comes out and they shut down the flash game to force people to buy it

>>11753808
Seriously? Did you equip them with midget subs or something?

>>11753800
oh, i forgot about that. i'll fix it on the next release.

>>11753786
the only differences are english UI and how it parse some game data in order to be translated.

>>11753806
They won't. The vita game has significant differences from the flash game.

>>11753811

I remodeled a KTKM to 10 and stole her torps. Other than that all my ships are using default equipment. The event is easy below HQ level 30.

>>11753805
I'd like to get rid of it with the false hope it could give me Taihou. And I still consider myself to still be above resorting to using real money.

>>11753815
they already explained what the vita game will be about? I've missed that.
Any links?

>>11753816
How about the drops?
Any gold or holo background drops for you?

>>11753815
My dad is Kancolle Vita's project leader and he's calling you a filthy liar.

>>11753816
>below HQ level 30
I guess I found my problem. I hit 40s just before the event. I'll still try your setup, thanks.

>>11753810
How do I use this one? Can't find an .exe.

>>11753820

From this event, or in my fleet composition? I managed to snag a holo Haruna from the 2-1 boss.

In the event though my luck has been horrible ,and I have only got one gold ship from my final E-2 boss kill.

>>11753828
Pretty sure haruna is gold

>>11753823
I'm T level 80 and my highest level battle-worthy ship is a level 70 Kirishima followed by a level 60 Akagi.

This event has mostly been made of Kirishima and Maya nuking my fleet back into the docks 75% of the time and me failing to sink the boss 25% of the time.

>>11753767
previous version worked fine, whats up with this?

>>11753819
I forgot where I read it but it just said that it'd be different. I'm not sure what the differences are though.

But that hardly matters since you'd actually need a Vita to play the Vita game in the first place, which is a big enough difference as far fewer people have a Vita than some device that can play Internet flash games (such as PCs).

>>11753821
>not getting the Vita game's name correct
Who's the filthy liar here?

>>11753828
Event map of course.
Just want to see if the devs nerf the drop pool for lowbie teitokus. E-2 got a droplist is good though. You can even snag Shoukaku/Nagato off it. Having a Nagato class early let you blow by all the low level maps easily.

Has anyone below lv 60 gotten crane sisters or Nagato off E-2?

>>11753833
KanColle 改, but more importantly, take your greentext out of here.

>>11753767
Hi is there a guide available? I tried reading the readme but its all in jap. Thanks for your effort.

>>11753832
Well, you probably have CLTs, which I don't, so that makes a big difference.
>>11753835
The best I got from event maps was Mogami.

Anyone wanna do some all max LSCs with me and see what we get?

>>11753839
It was required to point out your mistake. I'd call that a reasonable minimum.

>>11753848
Don't bother. The devs already said that all max is not as good a recipe as you hope.

>>11753767
>haven't logged in for almost 2 weeks.

But what about I-401?

>>11753847
My highest level CLT is Kitakami, who is level 14. Each time I've reached the boss (which is not often) I haven't been able to put damage on Haruna OR Kirishima, and damecons won't help because my ships's firepower is already too fucking low and red ships don't deal damage anyway.

I am seriously just getting blown the fuck out nonstop.

>>11753852
Since when has the greatness of the recipe affected all max crafting? It's all in good fun.

>>11753767
The 10 expeditions quest is in japanese.

>>11753847
Not even one of the rare destroyers? It's time to sacrifice some virgin kanmusu to the RNGodess.

>>11753850
Greentexting is never "required".

>>11753855
How about you go level them up then retard?

>>11753767
There's a huge problem with your version.

>>11753850
How new? Fuck back off to /a/.

>>11753834
nevermind i fixed it
works perfectly

>>11753857
Nope. But hey, I got both cranes in a row from crafting recently, so maybe that's my sacrifice.

>>11753859
Yeah the text is a bit long. Maybe just have it say,

Conditions: x, y, z. etc.

>>11753858
Because I have better things to do with my time than putting 70 levels on Kiso and Kitakami, which they'll need to be useful.

>>11753871
you said she is level 14, KTKM is useful anywhere after 20, and becomes OP at level 55, fucking read the wiki before you start blogging you shithead.

>>11753857
I've grinded E-1 at least 60 times already and still no E-1gumos in sight.

>>11753871
Kitaooi are useful from level 10. You're doing it wrong.

>>11753868
I think expanding the field would be better.

>>11753872
She gets a monstrous torpedo attack. Big whoop. Iona has one too, and she doesn't one-shot elite TAs or named mist ships either. She also has shit for HP and gets crit all day because no levels.

>>11753875
I wrote the wiki.

>>11753871
Better things to do as in get blown the fuck out from piss-easy E-2?

Besides, you don't need KTKM to be level 70 to become useful anyway. And if you don't have Ooi, might as well just spend the time looking for her instead of wasting time and resources.

>>11753880
Epic,simply epic, now get the fuck out of this general, you came here from whatever cancerous cesspit you crawled out from to blog, someone tells you what you're doing wrong and you refuse to listen, then you reply with shit like that? Get out.

>>11753827
grab the zip from skydrive and extract it somewhere, the .exe is within the folder. do note that it require .NET 4.5 to function correctly.
the github link are there if you'd rather compile it yourself.

>>11753845
KCV are easy enough to use that readme file isn't really necessary.

>>11753880
Well clearly you know this game better than us. Hey, be sure to blog about how you finally finish E-3 next week alright.

>>11753880
>She gets a monstrous torpedo attack. Big whoop
I was never impressed by the torpedo monsters as well but pre-emptive strikes for this event is pretty important. It doesn't take long to level them up to 50 because they will be stealing MVPs in no time and you can bring them anywhere including sub-nodes.

>>11753883
I think I can do it by the end of the event.

Some fag got Maruyu up to 99 in two days so I have no doubt that I could get three CLTs up to 55 if I spent the next five days doing it but that's a pretty fucking tall order.

>>11753890
>99 in two days
I think he's botting.

>>11753884
The wiki was started in /jp/. Which I'm from. Did you even browse /jp/ before you started playing Kantai Collection?

>>11753887
I know how the game is played. I have made suboptimal leveling decisions and am paying for it (for example, I have a level 92 Ryuujou which isn't good for anything).

Should I take this as a sign that I'm going to get lucky with drops because satan blessed me or as a sign that I'm going to be unlucky?

>>11753890
>I could get three CLTs up to 55
Kiso's at 65. When she remodel, just make sure you have tons of modernisation material to max her torp and armour.

>>11753886
I searched for a .exe and only Nuget came out. I double clicked on it, a cmd prompt window appeared and disappeared. Is there a place that I am supposed to set up first as a config?

Is there a map you can send subs to beat the 12 world 4 bosses?

>>11753893
I've been here longer than you have, considering you came here just today from the wiki chat section to blog, and that doesnt even factor into the discussion, you think because you contributed to some nonfactor information, that nullifies KTKM's legitimacy as being one of the best ships in the game after level 20? Just fuck off already retard.

>>11753895
forgot pic.

>>11753900
Yes, try 4-1 to 4-4.

>>11753892
You can easily get Maruyu to 30s in 3-4 hours by spamming the all subs node at 5-3 with an all subs fleet. If they did it for 48 straight hours it's possible to level 99 her.

>>11753901
I have been posting in Kancolle threads since they got started in /jp/.

>KTKM's legitimacy as being one of the best ships in the game after level 20?
My highest level cruisers are Furutaka-class and my highest level destroyers are Tokugata-type. I'm aware that they're not optimal.

I wouldn't be surprised if a level 21 Kitakami is more effective than a level 92 Ryuujou at everything (no planes no planes no stats no chest and a shitty flight elevator to boot), but that won't stop me from complaining about it.

>>11753900
Finished mine from scratch today at 4-2.

>>11753893
>>11753908
Why would you level RJ to 92 if you don't even like her? Fuck you and your shit taste.

>>11753916
Because I do like her? The fact that I do like her doesn't change the fact that she has no stats, no planes, no chest, and a shitty flight elevator.

>>11753821
They already announced it would be a TRPG didn't they?

>>11753886
I installed git but I am not sure where to go from there. I have been trying to launch everything in the folders but nothing happens.

>>11753920
Isn't TRPG traditional RPG? As in pen and paper D&D, so that can't be the Vita game.

>>11753901
>I've been here longer than you have
How long? Just curious.

>>11753928
Thought it meant tactical. Not sure, saw a picture on /a/.

>>11753920
It's not Kancolle Kai. I don't think it's a Vita game.

>>11753928
>>11753932
Acronyms can be misleading. Usually tactical RPG is referred to as TRPG, while pen and paper is just RPG.

>>11753934
>テーブルトーク
>table talk
So yeah I don't think it's the Vita game.

>>11753934
>テーブルトークRPG
I can't even imagine how it would be possible with a console.
>>11753940
No the tabletop RPG thing is directly related to the TRPG.

They fucked up.

>>11753930
3 months after the split.

>>11753951
Astoundingly unlikely.

>>11753940
actually in japan tactical rpgs are usually srpgs, with trpgs being pan and paper

>>11753940
nope son.
TRPG is tabletop rpg for nips.

The counterpart of TRPG label for them is シミュレーションロールプレイングゲーム (simulation role playing game)

Don't ask why. Nips have weird game label (like how galge are also called AVD)

>>11753956
That's nice, now please stop shitting up the thread with blogs and off topic shit?

Anyone got a good kaga recipe?

Navel time.

>>11754001
Which navel would you lick

What do you guys equip your ASW feet BBV with? I'm planning to replace the Zuiun with another Seiran Chuutai once I get Shioi to 35.

>>11753973
i'm too young to go to prison

>>11754002
All of them. This includes the monster-head enemy DDs.

>>11754008
I don't, I actually use effective ships.

I'm thinking of picking support shelling for 5-3 support expedition.

Any advices?

Apparently Exp 33 is useless in 5-3 because of the night battles.

>>11754001
So, Yubari's navel tastes like melons, and Satsuma's will taste like clementines if she ever gets implemented, but what do Nagato, Mutsu and Musashi's navels taste like?

>>11754008
Just use a CL like a non retarded person.

>>11754015
You'd rather not get the 2nd shelling phase?

>>11754008
Feet eh? They ought to give some proper shoes to the BBV, geta with propellers is a bad combination.

>>11754016
Experiment and find out which one works well and why, so you will know what kind of support fleet you'll need in the upcomming events.

>>11754002
Nagato's. Taste like victory.

>>11754008
>What do you guys equip your ASW feet BBV with?
Never really used them. Thanks for the reminder. As for the question, it depends on the map; for 5-1 sub node, fully decked with Seiran and Zuiun. Other than that, probably the BB loadout; CL and DD are the specialist, BB are there to support.

>>11754017
Steel, gunpowder, and smoke.

Battleships are on another level.

>>11754023
Advice taken.

For support shelling I'm stacking my biggest red guns on my BB's. This is not stupid,right?

Best navel.

>>11754020
If you can't crush your opponents, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of their women within a single round of shelling, you don't deserve to play this game.

The only excuse for a second shelling phase is if you feel like salting their fields afterwards.

>>11754037
>is if you feel like salting their fields afterwards.
If you're not doing that, you don't deserve to play this game.

>>11754026
I like your answer. Fuckin' hardcore battleships. Yamato's would also have a slight floral scent though.

>>11754022
Curses. This terrible keyboard.

>>11754025
I'm using the pictured loadout for 4-3 and it seems to work well enough.

>>11754034
prpr. I love poking her.

>>11754037
Oh you.

>>11754037
Conan the Admiralnator art, please.

>>11754042
If I could do that, I would, only if it means that they'll come to me for work.

>>11754037
How pointless. Not even bones are left behind.

>>11754034
Mutsu is by far the most attractive battleship.

>>11753994
I've been here since the /a/ /b/ split.

>>11754075(you)
>>11753994(you)
Please stop shitting up our thread 2hu tard, i know you're sad because c85 day 1 results were a lot better for kancolle than touhou, but you dont need to shipost.

>>11754086
what a subtle way to try and instigate a touhou vs kancolle shitfight

>>11754090
2hu is dead dude get over it

>>11754086(you)
>>11754093(you)
No, kancolle is fucking shit, just look at the number of touhou merchandise compared to kancolel's.

How do I even pick up the New Year furniture once it's out? I failed to get any of the Christmas ones.

>>11754086
>>11754097
Samefag.

>>11754099
Relogin. Also check to see if you already got it.

>>11754099
You have to complete the New Years' furniture quest, it requires you to beat S-rank World 5 maps at least ten times.

>>11754099
You make it sound as if there was more than just one furniture this christmas.

>>11754102
Actually relogin, or just refresh the page? Because it's not in my inventory.

>>11754109
Refreshing is fine. I got the New Year's window after refreshing.

>>11754106
There was. Turkey dinner on the 25th, and a new window today.

>>11754106
So there's the xmas tree in the wall furniture slot, for free. For windows, there's one for points, another for points + fairy, a last one for free; there's also the snow kotatsu and the feast table

I'm counting more than one

>

>>11754113
But the new window is for new years

>>11754118
It's the 29th here though, so it has to be the 30th over there and December has 31 days.

>>11754112
Ah ha, got it now, guess I missed the Christmas furniture though.

Still working on E-2, finally fucking sunk the boss for the first time...

>>11754122
Are you even sparkling your fleet ?

>>11754119
By your logic, Christmas dinner set shouldn't have been delivered until the 25th. It's the New Year's window, Gaijin-kun.

>>11754117
You should probably learn how to make a coherent sentence, and he's talking about ones you get when logging in.

1. table on christmas

2. window for new years.

That's 1, pal.

>>11754125
It wasn't delivered until late at night on the 24th here, so it was the 25th in Japan.

>>11754119
Yes, so what?We didn't recieve the table on the 25th.

>>11754126
But all those I quoted won't be available forever. Also, for your autistic definition of what constitutes winter/christmas furniture, see >>11754119

My office looks like someone set off a confetti bomb in it.

>>11754130
It was delivered with the update. Why are you even arguing this, anyways? It's clearly New Year's Day decoration.

Huh, did Nenohi drop rate increase because it's near the new year? I got three of her in the last hour alone.

>>11754138
Forgot the image.

Well then.

Was hoping for Kaga but this works too.

>>11754150
We don't speak gook in America, that could be anything

>>11754157
TL note: it says "new year"

>>11754157
You should go back to /a/merica, then.

>>11754154
Don't settle for anyone but the best.

>>11754167
What's the latest update on the Taihou crafting chart?

>>11754164
But taihou is the best carrier, not kaga

>>11753767
So how does this kancolle viewer thing work? Do I just slap my API link where it says "URL goes here" and play? Or do I need to configure stuff first?

>>11754164
I'm trying to get her; I really am. Maybe in 20 minutes when the dailies reset will I attempt again.

>>11754167
I prefer Kaga, and the best CV isn't even in the game.

>>11754173
Shinano?

>>11754173
Taihou is currently the best CV in the game, being able to send planes in orange is going to be pretty helpful for events or hard maps.

>>11754164
>>11754167
PAPER PLANES 4EVER

>>11754176
Enterprise.

>>11754179
Not enough resources for LSC yet. Well, technically enough for one craft, but that'll kill me.

>>11754179
Kaga's not giving up her place without a fight.

>>11754187
Its too late, she already lost.
She can try again when she gets the ability send planes when damaged like her.

>>11754031
Well reporting back.
2 times 1 ship critted to red, 1 compass troll, and finally boss node from the detour path.

I got T-crossed.
Shelling support made 9 damage.
At night Haruharu aimed at the transport so I got my first kill.

Should I post my fleet, does anyone cares?

Hey guys, my uncle works at kadokawa and he says Kaga is getting a level 90 remodel to turn her into an armored aircraft carrier like Taiho.

>>11754190
PAPER PLANES

>>11754097
What's with the (you)? Is this some sort of epic new meme?

>>11753853
It isn't too late to get her, right?

>>11753859
will be fixed on the next release, force new line for the second sentence.

>>11754171
>Do I just slap my API link where it says "URL goes here" and play?
yes, that's all it takes assuming you are able to play kancolle using IE.

>>11753899
>>11753927
you are doing it wrong.
grab the compressed file from sdrv.ms/1hbeYLg and extract it to a folder.
run the KanColleViewer.exe which is located within that folder and use your API link.

4/3/5/7 is for Taihou eight?

>>11754208
You have til the 8th to get her, better hurry.
You missed the turkey dinner with the kirishima bear though, should have logged in on xmas.

>>11754208
The event is until the 8th, a lot of veterens did it in 1 or 2 days.

Depends how many subs you already have.

>>11754213
Which reminds me. I should do 2-4 with Iona.

Is this the latest version or do we have an updated one?
>>11749952

>>11754211
Nine.

>>11754183
What makes you think we'll ever see enterprise though, she was American which makes kaga the best.

>>11754190
Doesn't really count though, taiho will go to red easier than kaga goes to orange with that luck stat.

>>11754124
Didn't know if it made a difference, and it's usually pretty difficult to sparkle my entire fleet.

>>11754226
Luck doesn't matter

>>11754226
It matters a lot, thats why a lot of people are spending a lot of bauxite in LCS for her.
She also has more armor than Kaga, who is now #2

>>11754223
Why not? A man can dream, right?

>>11754226
who wants to do cut-ins with a carrier?

>>11754224
sens single ship to 1-1, make it clear it
congratulations, it's now in sparkle modo

Gee that was hard n shit

>>11754208
I tried using it but im stuck at the loading screen, the white screen with the ship floating before the page with the loading bar appears.

Works perfectly on chrome so I have no idea whats going on here.

>>11754242
Caching

>>11754248
It still has to download shit first, right?

>>11754235
Because this game is nip wank material, they dont want midway PTSD, I'm not even american and I want to see the entire yorktown class, but we wont.

>>11754244
Both chrome and IE are set to 1024 mbs of cache

I only just realised this now but multiple ship modernisation fails a lot, huh. Any way to get a higher success chance?

>>11754248
do you even know what a cache is?

>>11754252
it's just random

>>11754252
Add more ships

Why the HELL do PvP battles rest at different times than dailies

>>11754242
I had the same problem as you, it has little to do with caching. Try to fiddle with your firewall/IE settings a bit.

>>11754276
What did you change to make it work?

>>11754279
because they aren't daily

>>11754282
But they're every 12 hours, wouldn't it make more sense if it synched up with dailies?

>>11754287
the way it is now, you could get 3 draws of pvp-opponents to use for your daily-quests if you want, sacrificing opponents for the dailies on the next day.
Wouldn't be possible if it was synchronized.

Finally got a Yuubari from 30/30/30/30, not that it matters since I got one from a drop earlier.

I've been grinding 1-1 for around 10 hours now because the wiki says Sendai drops from there and I need her for my 3rd fleet, am I doing something wrong or is RNG just that bad sometimes in this game?

>>11754333
She drops from boss node only. A and B ranking too, but the pool is so big her droprate is negligible.

>>11754333
>sometimes
You mean always?

>>11754333
RNG is terrible to you if there's a ship you want.

>>11754333
don't grind on 1-1 for any CL

E-3 is burning my resources. 40~ runs in and no Mikuma yet, fuck.

>>11754333
Ignore this quest for now. You'll get her sooner or later from daily crafts or random drop. Never grind for specific ship, RNG will fuck with you all the time.

Apparently 4/2/5/7/20 is the best for Taihou so far.

After 8 crafts, I'm not sure anymore

>>11754350
I'm with you, 6 here and I've gotten Akitsumara and 4 Kagas.

>>11754353
>>11754350
And this is the main reason why I dont want to risk doing LCS, I'll just end with a lot less resources and nothing to show for it.

Still missing
E-1: Akigumo, Makigumo
E-2: Shoukaku
E-3: Zuikaku
What map should I focus on first?

>>11754350
still below 20% chance

>>11754357
Which ship you want more, anon?

>>11754360
I don't know, I want them all.

>>11754357
Shoukaku is the best of the four, grind for her first.

>>11754001
Terrible girl.

Current LSC results:
1x 30/30/60/60/100: Agano
1x 35/35/60/60/20: Akitsu
4x 40/20/50/70/20: 1x Akitsu, 3x Shoukaku
1x 15/15/20/10/1: Hiei

>>11754362
I agree with this man's taste.

>>11754362
Okay. 5 subs alright for E-2?

>>11754180

>>11754371
Is that a weaponized billy herrington

>>11754374
Doesn't look remotely close to him.

>>11754376
Billy Herrington is not a person, but an ideal.

>>11754377
O-okay. Forgive me for being ignorant.

>>11754369
>Kirishima + Sanshiki
Why would anyone use her?

>>11754384
I like her

>>11754370
>just had a no damage run on E-2

Anyways, when farming or map clearing, do you guys wait for Mamiya button to stop blinking before sortieing or do you sortie immediately?

>>>/a/99230832

Weekly 4koma.

>>11754384
My first BB to reach level 75. I hope she gets Kai Ni refit soon.

>>11754388
I do too, she's my highest level Kongou BB.

>>11754391
Mine is almost there too, I've started leveling her after I read about her and Haruna's possible remodels from that comic.

Are you MAN enough, anon?

>>11754399
Not 7k7k7k7k 100? clearly not manly enough.

>>11754397
I might Kongou and Hiei later for their remodels but I dont like kirishima at all and no kai2 will change that.

They should give the remodel to a sub or Kuma for a 4th CLT

>>11754399
What is it again like 15% to get her?

>>11754401
and you should fuck off

>>11754369
Why would she even borrow a sanshiki? She can't even equip it.

>>11754409
Looks like someone is allergic to opinions, maybe you should take a break from the thread.

>>11754388
You have good taste, fellow Kirishima lover. SHe's been mic checking Abyss ships for me ever since I got her, currently my highest level ship outside of torpedo sisters and even then she's only a few levels behind.

>>11754411
Why can't CLs and DDs equip Sanshikidan, anyways? I wonder what the devs' logic behind that one was. I don't think it'd break any class balance.

>>11754421
I'm not sure they could equip it historically, so that might be the reason.

>>11754435
20.3 and 12.7 cm calibers existed

>>11754435
The 12.7cm gun can fire them, but it sucked as an AA gun so nobody cares.

>>11754359
Above, apparently

The RNG gods finally decided to give me a shigure. Since she has high luck, when I eventually get her to remodel do I go for cut-in? Or do I just go double and radar?

>>11754445
that picture is old and it's 17.5% from the last update

>>11754453
Can you please post it?

>>11754437
and completely sucked.

the only semi successful ones for AA where 35.6cm and 41cm.

46cm where useable but the blasts from the main guns would disrupt all the smaller AA guns.

>>11754450
10cmx2+Rocket launcher is my current setup.

>>11754455
the question was if they could use them historically, not if they were used successfully.
CAs use the 20.3 version in the game without problem, too.

>>11754456
it's written on wikiwiki, not sure if someone made an image for it.

>>11754208
The 10-expedition daily quest is still in moon runes

Actual quest tracking seems to be buggy, it doesn't update consistently.

Otherwise a fantastic update, even just HAVING quests show up in the tab saves me from having to load quest page to check. Everything else seems to work fine too so far, though I haven't experimented with EVERY quest yet.

>>11754276
>>11754242
Anyone know how to get this to work on IE?
Have been trying to get it to work without luck.

>>11754208
>>11754470
Speaking of quests, is it possible to implement real-time tracking?

I hope they'll add some sort of quest tracking to SanaeChan soon

>>11754488
Me too.

Why are Nagara class Cls so fucking invincible to torpedos? I had 4 subs hit one with torpedos in the pre-emptive stage (including Iona) and they did a grand total of 30 damage to it.

>>11754499
T-cross disadvantage?

>>11754499

They usually fight in formations strong against subs, which imparts some torpedo protection too, I think?

>>11754499
Are your subs remodeled?
Mine killed them easily with quintuple + quads.

>>11754499
You were probably on the bad side of the T

>>11754501
In opening salvo? Nope

Chitose-onee ♪ // Chiyoda —
Yamashiro... // Fu, Fusou nee-sama?
Kongou onee-sama — ! // Admiral — !

Hey, Hiyou, why don't you ever call me onee-chan or anything like that?
Ha? What are you talking about? Aren't you the younger sister?
Ehh? But...
Anyway, I'm busy.

Huh? Was Hiyou my older sister? Ah, what's with this complicated feeling...

For once RNG-sama smiled upon me and granted a nearly perfect run through E-3's last 20% and awarded me with Mutsu. The hunt for Iku begins.

Did they every say that next event is gonna be Midway?
Or is it just a pretty good speculation?

>>11754510
>Filename
Maybe sewer waters

>>11754508
It affects opening salvo, too.

>>11754503
Yea, definitely the formations. After switching to CLts Nagaras got blasted with one torpedo each (most of the time).

Why can't I even get a Maikaze from E-2? Does RNG hate me so I can not have anything listed as red in the wikiwiki?

>>11754515
It's not even "annnounced" during the op salvo

>>11754520
I've got plenty of her there. I swear the chances to get a ship you don't already have are decreased.

>>11754524
I don't know if there's anything written about this on the wikis, but from my thousands of battles, there seems to be a correlation between the encounter types and the damage dealt by the opening torpedo strike.

>>11754507
Wait, but if you think about it, Junyou actually finished construction before I did...
So would that really make that kid my older sister?

Other than just being strong, she's got a level head, and whenever we're together it gives me peace of mind. Then, she really is the older sister...

Ju, Junyou onee-chan...?
You called?
Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!?

Then, say it one more time — ♪ Hyaha~
I, I won't say it! (No peeping!)

>>11754529
I'm more inclined to believe (based on experience alone) that OP salvo is only affected by formation and remaining ammo.

>>11754525

I'm still surprised I'm not drowning in subs, since I don't need any.

Fuck you too, LSC

>>11754507
>>11754532
Hnnngh.

>>11754534
Right. I wonder what the general consensus on this is. It's not something ever discussed on here, and I don't believe I've seen it in the English wiki.

>>11754534
In my experience a bad opening torpedo strike is directly correlated with a T-cross disadvantage. Wiki also specifically mentions initial airstrikes and night warfare as ignoring engagement form, with no mention of opening torpedo strikes.

>>11754543
But you shouldn't even know engagement form during the salvo

>>11754543

I too have noticed my worst openings have resulted in a following red T cross. While my very best ones have had a green one follow.

>>11754546
You can feel it when doing 2-3 dailies.

>>11754546
if you can shoot torpedoes at them, you'd also know where they are and in which direction they move.
Game-wise, just because the game didn't display it yet doesn't mean the game doesn't know it yet.

>>11754546
I see a bad opening strike and think to myself, "I bet I got T-crossed." Then I see the engagement form, and it's a T-cross disadvantage. It's confirmation bias, sure, but there's nothing preventing the engagement form from affecting things before you see what it is, similar to how the game knows what ship you're building but doesn't show you.

>>11754560
Well, the game definitely knows earlier than it's displayed, but that doesn't mean it actually has an effect or not.

I'm kind of surprised no one has made a combat logger/parser to help figure out these kind of details.

So how are people running E-2 with 5-6 sub fleets? My subs constantly get oneshot by the enemy destroyers or Nagaras, My level 53 I-58 Kai just got hit for 17 damage in E-2 before the boss node.

>>11754586
Diamond + tcross adv can hurt.
It's a gamble

>>11754586
It also doesn't give consistent S ranks, man up and use a proper fleet maybe.

>>11754586
I've run it dozens of times, that happens maybe 1 in 10 at most. Not always S ranking the boss is a bigger issue, but it's much cheaper than using a surface fleet, so it works out OK.

>3rd Mikuma
Dammnit E-3, I want Zuikaku.

Mother of god I just got quad lasered at E2. And my Takao didn't use a single laser. Holy shit RNG.

Fuck, 3rd Goya drop.
I refuse to scrap or use her as a mod material, but this is getting out of hand

>>11754610

At least you got a Mikuma farm nearly up and running.

>>11754608

How are you not S ranking the boss consistently? Not enough cut ins, subs, or someone going into red?

>>11754601
>>11754586

Recorded some 6-sub runs just because this argument kept coming up.
15 runs: 13 S ranks, 1 S rank, 1 Retreat.

I didn't record my first couple dozen runs, but it was about the same.

Once in a while the pre-boss node will be wreck a sub, but it doesn't happen often.

Equip them for cut-ins, and it's really unlikely that you won't S-rank the boss during night battle, since you can one-shot Maya with a cut-in, or Iona can do it even without one.

>>11754614
I used 3 as food and still have 6 other Goya doing slave work.

>>11754618
1 A rank, I mean.

>>11754618
during the last two runs, I had 1 ship surviving in red health due to misses.
I know, it's shit luck, but can happen.

Not to mention it was Hyuuga again. Fuck

>>11754621
Not like Hyuuga is rare.

>>11754610
What's a good E3 farming fleet?

>>11754621
The only time that happened to me recently is when the pre-shelling torpedoes all hit a single ship, and the post-shelling torpedoes only managed a single kill and I went to night battle with 4 enemy ships alive.
I'm not saying it's impossible, but saying S-ranking is inconsistent is sort of misleading.

>>11754625
Equip 6 wikis with double wikis.

Hachi becoming obtainable when

>>11754629
What's a wiki?

>>11754625
Most people seem to go with 1BB 1CV 3CLT 1SS. Mine is the same but with another BB instead CV because I don't have good enough planes and if she gets to orange I'll have one less attack not to mention not being able to attack at night.

Does anyone else ever get the feeling that the /a/ threads should be in /jp/ and the /jp/ threads should be in /vg/?

>>11754639
>>>/vg/

>>11754639
It's just you.

>>11754643
The /jp/ thread is a chained general thread with non-stop video game discussion and blogging, and the /a/ thread is almost never about anime or manga.

>>11754632
They should make her craftable already, I need her for my sub fleet

>>11754647
5-4 drop, calling it.

>>11754651
If she can drop on any node of 5-4 then im okay with it

>>11754615
It tends to be a combination of too much overlap on daytime torpedoes and not getting enough cut-ins to finish everything.

>>11754652
You seem to think the devs would be kind enough to do that.

Here's a small reminder. Iku is yet to drop outside of event, Imuya drops on only boss nodes except 3-3 and all Goya drops are on the boss node only.

>>11754646
The /jp/ thread goes in either, the /a/ thread really has no business being in /a/ but nobody cares.

>>11754659
But Imuya is a easy 3-3 drop and goya is a easy E2 drop.
They might be kind enough to do that with hachi too

>>11754662
the /a/ threads still get the anthology/manga translated and typeset, it is usually more on topic but the events always derail it into constant game discussion.

A-gou weekly finished... no more constant quest status checking for the week.

>>11754687
What.
Did you farm it on 1-1?

My fleet is Kitakamikai/TAKAO/Iona/Akagikai/Mayakai/Hieikai. Who do I replace with Haruharu?

>>11754694
Yes, though it went to north 4 times in a row sometimes so not really efficient with 3 subs.

>>11754699
Maya

>>11754699

That's a bit overkill for 1-1. Maybe you should just send Iona.

>>11754706
>>11754703
Uhh, sorry, I didn't put the map in. It's meant for E3.

>>11754663
Too bad Hachi doesn't drop in the event.
Need I remind you Hachi is also a gold sub?

>>11754712
And Yahagi is Yamato/Musashi rarity but they made her avaliable on LCS.
We just have to wait for her to become craftable and then dump resources on crafting

>>11754718
Yahagi being the same rarity as Yamato/Musashi is a joke.

>>11754701
Try using one sub only, it'll cost less.

>>11754718
Are you prepared for 5% sub chance with failure being Maruyu?

>>11754718
Yuugumo-class DDs are silver, what's your point?

>>11754712
Seeing her gold background and hearing her Guten tag~ again will bring back memories of that night I don't want to be reminded of.

I don't, why not just get real ASW ships? Isuzu is easy to exp to 50 and her second refit is broken against subs (105 ASW with 2 charges and a sonar), Chiyoda and Chitose with 3 red planes and a saiun do decent ASW (a lot better than any BBV can do anyway) and still wreck other ships easily, if you need more exp any other nagara class to 20, otherwise start working on Kiso and Bep.

This.
I am still upset I wasted days of my time at E5 for Yahagi and missed out on Hatsukaze. Now I can just do 15/15/20/10 a few times to get her.
Devs need to get their priority right.
