What live update?

>>14926708
>he doesn't read the twitter for news before making a new thread
今週末～来週前半予定の月次作戦【二月作戦】の武勲褒賞の配信にあわせて、装備の【改修工廠(明石の工廠)の拡張】と【新装備の実装】を主軸とするプチアップデートを、サービスを停止しない形で実施予定です。
Basically, Akashi's will be expanded in a live update either this week or in the first half of next week.

I've also got issues with the formatting of OP in general but meh. I'll leave it to next maintenance.

>>14926615
Pola implementation time weren't given

>>14926615
100+ white day voice include old voice.

>>14926721
Ah, I thought you meant it went live already. I was kind of hoping to wait until it actually happened but it sounds like it might be a while.

>>14926728
Also tweet says around 110.

>>14926740
>but it sounds like it might be a while
So do Pola, Iowa, spring event, and plans for land-based stuff.

>>14926873
>pedo
Only Akatsuki class can be the pedo class.

Give it to me straight, jp.

What are the odds of Houshou getting a kai ni or even just a seasonal? Shibafu did do one for Shioi so there's a precedent r-right?

I want to level all of these destroyers, but I don't know where.
I've been trying 1-5, but I keep getting destroyed.

>>14926923
He's probably on the pricey side. I'd say she has better odds of getting a kai ni than a seasonal.

>>14926923
She got a whole two (2) new lines this year so far, that's two more than I was expecting.

>>14926928
She did?

>>14926924
Destroyed by what exactly? You should've unlocked at least 3-2 and 4-3 by now.

>>14926924
Stop at the third node

>>14926924
1-5 gives shitty exp, go to 3-2 or 5-4 or whatever you can farm easily.

(If you aren't at 3-2 yet, get there and then play with your kid ships.)

>>14926924
>I've been trying 1-5, but I keep getting destroyed.
How is that even possible? Are you hq level one thousand with those ships or something? Are you indonesian?

>>14926932
You betcha.

>>14926933
Well, 4-3 always has that J node and 3-2 is better for other ships.

>>14926935
Well, they're getting destroyed by red sub lady.

>>14926937
For 5-4, what should my party comp be? 4cv/DD/CAV?

>>14926887
You animal

>>14926924

What's your HQ level? 1-5 is fine until 80 and above. Pull out before the boss and you should be good. Otherwise 3-2-A works fine if you have a sub or two and don't mind limiting yourself to levelling 2-3 at once instead of 6. 4-3 is also used.but is more of a mixed bag and can result in waiting for repairs and such. Most people abuse the fuck out of 3-2-A when it's unlocked though since it's so easy, ignores morale and is still a good (if tedious) way of levelling.

>>14926923
My brain says it's not happening but I want to hope.

>>14926941
Well colour me blind, 2 valentines and one white day line, I never noticed because I have the game muted.

>>14926946
>For 5-4, what should my party comp be? 4cv/DD/CAV?

Don't ask stuff that's reported in every wiki out there, c'mon.

>>14926923
We'll probably get it just after the jets

>>14926954
Ah, what setup would you recommend if you're leveling as many destroyers as possible?
I never got around to leveling many destroyers.
Would something like this work?

>>14926955
What a weird combination of waifus.

>>14926924
>no one suggests 5-1

>>14926972
Well, I promised to marry whoever killed Negazuki, and Yukikaze decided that was her time to shine and snipe.

>>14926980
There are still many dumb people who are afraid of refreshing and prefer eating up wikia guides where CVL steals MVP half the time..

>>14926980
5-1 is very annoying, I'd prefer 5-4 instead.

>>14926969
>carrier
>no saiun

>>14926988
5-1 lest you train 6DDs instead of one. But yeah, 5-4 is nicer as a map.

>>14926969
what is that hyuuga doing

how do you have a maruyu if you're so behind with dds

what

Fucking hell I hate how DST makes the quests update so late in the day.

>>14926969
What the hell are you trying to do with that fleet?

>>14926984
I don't even use CVL on 4-3, works fine for me.

>>14927001
3-2a, simple

Ruined by Bismarck

>>14927003
>3-2-a

>asw gear

>>14927002
That just proves you're smart.

>>14927003
What's the point of ASW and torpedo bomber then?

>>14927002
Or you can just use fighter, saiun and some placebo equipment like engines.

>>14927010
ASW so they don't steal MVP.
Torpedo bomber because I want to rank it!

>>14927012
DDs? From CA? If that was Yuudachi Kai Ni and you were training lv1 Aoba, I could understand.

>>14927012
are you retarded

>>14927015
No, I just want to play the game.

Is this a statfag fleet.

>>14927021
>Kongou
Nah, it isn't.

>>14927021
No, needs cranes instead of Kaga and Hiryuu and Yamato instead of Bongou.

3-2 is the best leveling map in the game, prove me wrong.

>resource friendly
>bucket friendly
>bot friendly

>>14927031

I'm retarded, I meant Roma.

>>14927021

>tfw dragons will NEVER EVER be good again

>>14927005
>153 Takanami
He gets a waiver of everything for this amazing dedication.

>>14926969
Awful positioning. Place Hyuuga just before Shoukaku. Give the latter a Saiun.

DDs should use radars plus main guns. There is absolutely no point in giving them ASW since the chances of them getting MVP over a DA-setup CA might as well be nil.

>>14927034
It's too slow and you can't do weekly quests there. Maybe when a player gets started it is, but 5-4 becomes the best in the end.

>>14927034
For slow ships, maybe. And even then not if CV(L).
5-1 for DDs and CLs
3-3 for CAs and CV(L)s
5-4 for other fast ships

>>14927041
So, something more among the lines of this?

>>14927034
5-4A does exactly the same thing except you take on a chance to take chip damage but get something like twice the exp in exchange.

>>14927052
1.5x

Who let her become this smug?

>>14927051
You're supposed to place the DDs before the BB/CV(L), but this is fine.

>>14927080
Worthless moe~

>>14927080
>the only girl who can carry Taitei-chan
I'd be smug too.

What are Suzuya's Ten Desires?

>>14927087
She can't even make use of Taitei-chan's true power.

>>14927087
Too bad Taiteishit is useless because

I see she's into insulin needles

>sparkle
>ship takes minor scratch damage
Do people still take damaged ships to expeditions? I just can't do it.

>>14927159
Do you have five ships total?
I send them to docks and continue sparkling other girls. After some time I'll have a dozen of healthy sparkled girls and four in docks.

>>14927159
I have more than enough DDs to put scratches to repair and rotate them.

>tfw all almost all porn of you waifu involves her shitty sisters and there is next to nothing focusing only on her

Being a Harunigga is suffering.

>tfw Re misses her first hit

>>14927200
At least she actually gets anything.

What's the best composition if I want to clear 2-5 with low level fleet?
Tried some combinations but the result is either one of my boat always taiha'd or get directed to the dead end node.
Is it too early for newfag with HQ lv 43 to clear that map?

>>14927243
I cleared with lv15~20 ships 1BB1CA1CV1CVL1SS
It's doable with almost anything as long as you make it to the boss

>>14927243
I was doing fine with Kai CAs.
Why are you in such a rush? There are two weeks left.

Fucking 3-2-A.
Maruyu ;_;

>>14927275
There are other options to play it on?

Or do you mean the proxy playing, like playing on frame?

>>14927264
I've lost 3 of them in 1-1.

>>14927275
I'm not. Somehow I didn't notice the red tint. I have no idea how it happened.

>>14927200
It's even worse if it's yuri or crossdressing. Sometimes I'm glad there is no involvement between sister ships.

>>14927200

At least that age regression/progression doujin is fucking hot.

>>14927286
There's nothing wrong about yuri. If you don't like it, simply don't read it. The real problem are magical dicks appearing after fifteen pages of yuri doujin.

>not triple-checking their healths before you clicc that motherfucking formation

Grinding can really leave you soulless.

>>14927321
I suppose that's because I haven't done any 3-2-A in months, just wanted cheap 5k exp.

>>14927256
>>14927258
Thanks. If I remember correctly someone in previous thread said that the enemy will get harder at certain node once the HQ level is more than 50 and I want to try and get Akashi as fast as possible.

>>14927282

How the fuck can you miss it? No health in the health gauge, red icon on the person and a huge flashing SOME OF YOUR SHIPS ARE DAMAGED on the bar above. I know grinding is tedious as fuck but still, it's not hard to pay attention for half a second..

Perfect

>>14927331
Never heard that before, must be very minor bump, or an outright lie

Keep leveling your heavy cruisers, there's no problem
I didn't get akashi until Hq level 104, and it wasn't even from 2-5

>>14927385

Armpitfags are only one step above footfags.

>>14927392
Yes I know. It's been proven that armpit and foot fetishists are mostly handsome, intelligent weightlifting champions

>>14927385
This one is disgusting.

>>14927404
But this is cute and erotic.

Nice, kamo.

Well, I tried leveling at 5-1 with 6 DDs.
The result isn't favorable...
The wiki must've lied when it said that you can ignore Morale.

>>14927428
I don't know what you're on about, I can see her just fine.

>>14927433
Yes, flag and elite sub torps hurt with low morale. You need more than 6DDs and rotate them or just wait it out.

>>14927433
You can ignore it. But not with this setup.

>>14927433
Low levels have low evasion, morale matters more for them. People who are in World 5 usually have stronger fleet than 1-30.
Did you even modernize their armor?

>>14927448
I do 6DDs ignoring morale no problem but all of them are 50+

I started a few days ago, I got 6 DDs to Kai, should I bother modernization with them all or should I just wait for the few that have a Kai ni to do it then?

>>14927464
Focus on maxing Yukikaze/Shimakaze and the ones with kai ni first.

>>14927464
"Don't modernize until final remodel" is a shit advice, you get enough fodder to max modernize the girl several times before getting there. Just don't bother with the AA stat.

>>14927464
Forget about DDs at the moment, try to modernize your CA/BBs first and focus on clearing 2-4 so you can get to 3-2. Then you can do whatever the fuck you want.

>>14927464
>should I bother modernization
Read the wiki.

>>14927464
Use all the dupes to modernize, botes without maxed modernization sucks hard.

>>14927476
>Yukikaze/Shimakaze
Not him but I still haven't gotten either, hell I still don't have Sendai. The damn ship just won't appear for me to finally get that third fleet.

do i do 4-5 and 5-5 if im not ranking

>>14927512
Do you have all blueprint ships and more screws than you use? If yes, don't bother.

>>14927464
The only thing you should be stingy about sacrificing to modernize is ships that give anti-air stat. You should definitely be maxxing the easy stats like attack and torpedo.

>>14927512
Why not? Both take less than 10k fuel.

>>14927512
I don't even feel like doing 4-5 anymore, the map makes me angry.

>>14927527
Stop using battleshits.

>>14927531
But I do middle route.

>>14927553
I don't know what might make you angry then. One or two crits from Ta on the way? One or two failures at boss every three months?

>>14927518
>more screws than you use

Haha, you funny girl

I modernize you last

>>14927573
Yeah I know, some people just love to hoard screws and claim they have nothing to upgrade when that's really never the case.

At some point I realized that the rate at which I can grind screws through sorties was significantly lower than the rate at which I can grind screws with real money.

Not having ANY screws made me uncomfortable about my fleet, but I didn't want to put real money into the game, so instead of making a difficult decision I ran away from the game and stopped playing.

Send help.

>>14927586
Do your weeklies. Surely your Ise isn't maxed yet, take her to World 4.

>>14927586
Weeklies and medals really help, not to mention monthlies, though using the medals assume you have every blueprint remodel done or don't want to farm blueprint ship exclusive equipment.

>>14927595
What would be the most worth farming though? Fusou for the gun and Zuiun?

If 6-5 rewards a meme medal every month would you start turning yours into screws? Lets also say they release 6-5 the second last day of the month and you weren't able to clear it while some other players did meaning you'll never have max mememedals anymore

>>14927600
Fusou > Choukai > maybe Katsuragi if she drops in Spring and really want the Ryuusei air group for some reason.

>>14927243
6CVL

>>14927600
Yamashiro gives both and an extra searchlight.

Choukai has nice equips and her level requirement isn't that retarded.

>>14927608
Main thing stopping me is Iowa, if her gun is upgradable there would be little point in having third 41cm proto.

>>14927611
Yamashiro a shit. I'd rather farm more Sendais.
I don't think level matters much when it comes to blueprint remodels. Fusou's slow speed is a problem though.

Isn't the next feature at Akashi's going to eat medals? Why would you convert them to screws before you get to know what is it?

>>14927658
Where the fuck did you read that?

>>14927591
>>14927595
I guess there's still some low-hanging medal fruit lying around, recently all I've been doing is carting low-level ships around to grind them.

>>14927639
It's going to take more than a year to upgrade the 16inch. It's going to be the go-to gun for support expeditions instead.

>>14927664
No idea, probably here.

And it's not even wednesday yet, that's a new record for me.

How are the rest of you faring?

>>14927734

Finished it yesterday, git gud.

>>14927734
Man up and do that 5-1 quest

>>14927734
Doing world 4 weekly with Mizuho flagship to reach level 94 and bench her forever until needed, which will probably be never besides expeditions.

>>14927734
18/24
I'm not in the mood for sparkling, 6-4 drained my sanity.

>>14927747
Ooh, why didn't I think of that before!
Two zuiun 12 and kaiten or three kaitens?

>>14927753
I do 1 Zuiun 2 minisub. I wish I had a Seiran, it would be better in this situation.

What should I be doing around HQ level 45? I finished 1-5, I haven't started 2-5, and worlds 3 and 4 haven't been completed yet.
Should I just keep hardly sortieing until LSC gives me a ship worth leveling?

>>14927734
5/24 boss encounters

Which means I might finish it by Saturday and then be too lazy to do the transport quest as usual.

>>14927764
Hmm, yeah, your setup is better.

>>14927771
You should be spamming 1-5 with DDs and 3-2-A with other ships until you get essential K2s and core of your fleet has maxed fp, tp and armor.

>>14927771
>LSC at HQ45
I hope you enjoy not playing.

>>14927782
One a day for the first quest + a couple tries at subs isn't taxing on resources. I've been staying about 500 off cap for a couple days now. I'll start stockpiling when the event gets announced

So a while back I promised I would do a test regarding night battle formations.
After slacking off I finally remembered to present it.

Here's what I did.
Send Lvl1 common DDs (1-1 fodder) to 5-3C
Record the hit/miss of enemies on the DD in Line Ahead and Echelon formation.
Double attacks are counted separately.
Scratch damage is also recorded.

The data shows that those in Echelon tend to dodge more, by approximately 10%.
This difference is significant regardless of whether scratch damage is consider a hit or a miss

Please feel free to critique.

Also, should I post the excel file somewhere?

>>14927789
You won't achieve much in the event if you only wast time on LSC and stockpile.

>>14927734

>mfw I haven't sunk a single transport outside 5-4 this week

A... am I ranking well fampais?

>>14927807
Months away.

>>14927771
>LSC
Don't.

>>14927805
Interesting, but would it still affect ships with already high evasion, for example 90+ evasion?

>>14927807
So you think avoiding LSC, developing equipment and leveling would be my best bet, or should I shoot for getting medals from 2-5/3-5 while my HQ is still <80

>>14927825
2-5 is super easy, 3-5 not so much. You will have the blueprint by April for sure.

A true alpha male

>>14927771

The thing is most of the ships that are "worth leveling" aren't even LSC ships. Do you have at least a handful of CAs at Kai Ni? Maya Kai Ni? Do you have your BBs up to a decent level and/or Kai Ni'd? Are your standard DDs leveled? Got Abubear converted and torpedo sluts at a reasonable level?

If your answer is no then you should be focusing on those instead of wasting time/resources on LSC. They're much more important than having a possible chance at a Yamato or some shit.

>>14927825
Yes. Kongou Kai Ni is worth more than lv10 Yamato.

>>14927818
Hard to say with the evasion cap.
Lvl1 DDs might illustrate the base difference in the formations.

>>14927734
dont know what im doing anymore

>>14927841
Kongou is 5 levels out from K2, Haruna is 60, Maya just hit Kai, Ashigara is 35, Shimakaze/Yukikaze/Yuudachi/Hibiki in the 30s, KTKM is K2, and no Abukuma.

And thanks to you and the other anons replying, i know yall hate new TTKs, but you're being pretty helpful

>>14927868

I usually don't mind helping people out. Some here do though. If you can make a pic or sheet with your whole fleet maybe we could tell you where you are lacking and how to level the ships you need.

>>14927851
There is no evasion cap, only diminishing returns. If Echelon truly provides a flat bonus to evasion rate, then we'll see roughly the same effect with high-level DDs.

>>14927868
At least get Ooi, and level Kiso to complete the set.

Start leveling the Fusous, it'll take a while.

>>14927868

I can't speak for anyone else but I don't hate new players. Just focus on what you have for now. You should be aiming to Kai Ni at least a handful of DDs (Shigure and Poi are relatively low level Kai Ni and very powerful/useful), CAs (Myoukou class, Maya) and at least Abubear and Sendai (for yasen equipment) for CLs along with Ooi up to Kai Ni. Getting Tone or Chikuma up to Kai Ni will be helpful too as they're great CAVs. Having a viable (combined) fleet for not only map clearing but for events too will make your life so much easier.

>>14927860
>120
>240 slots
>all those quests

Well that waste of Steel on Construction didn't go so well. Neither did that waste of steel to develop new equipment.
Only ships that I got that were new for me were Kongo and two Nagatos. I got two Harunas as well but I already had her. And I only got one surface radar. I guess I will have to keep grinding at 3-2A while I wait for my Steel to recover and hopefully get the other two Bongos as drops. I don't know how I got Nagato first and not Mutsu.
I guess I will just have to keep grinding I guess.

>>14927875
I'm pretty much lacking in the CA/CVL/CL department, which from what I've seen for branching/events means a whole lot.
Maya + Myoukou-class CAs are about all I've got.
Shouhou is the only CVL i have past level 15.
Sendai/Isuzu/Kuma are the only CLs I have leveled, never got Yuubari/Ooyodo/Abukuma
>>14927877
I have both Fusous at 20, how far should I level them?

>>14927896
>Getting Tone or Chikuma up to Kai Ni will be helpful too as they're great CAVs.
Not that guy, but would you say it's worth it to use one blueprint on them, if you have only two (one going to ABKM)? All my potential CAVs are low leveled as fuck, and last time I sortied Mogami I wanted to kill myself.
I do have all the other candidates for blueprints (cranes etc.), though they pretty much all need levels.

>>14927868
> i know yall hate new TTKs, but you're being pretty helpful
There's a difference between asking for general advice and expecting people to spoonfeed things that could easily be found in the wiki over and over again. There's way too much information to take in when you start so it's a good idea to ask for advice. Just don't expect others to do all the work for you

>>14927929
>I have both Fusous at 20, how far should I level them?
To 80

>>14927936
Yes, they're the only two CAVs that could even be considered good.

>>14927936

Tone was my first Blueprint usage so maybe I'm biased but they're great to have around. That was before the reign of Abubear though. Right now I'd probably go with Abubear > Chikuma/Tone > Fusou/Yamashiro > Whatever else you want here (Cranes, Bisko, the other CAV you didn't blueprint etc.)

>two new seaplane fighters
>transport fleets
>asshole installations
Are we about to enter the golden age of BBVs?

>>14927936
The difference between suzukuma and the tones is small.
The difference between Abukuma and the rest of the CL is fucking huge.

>>14927961
It's all preparation for Ise and Hyuuga Kai Ni.

>>14927962
>The difference between Abukuma and the rest of the CL is fucking huge

Especially in annoyance levels, yeah.

>>14927962
It's more of a durability problem than a usefulness one. Mogamis are the worst CAs and even worse CAVs in an already unique class. There are many good CLs that can hold on their own, especially in normal maps.

>>14928019

What if they implement rare item crafting and it takes 5 devmats + 1 screw per try? And it has the same pool as normal crafting plus a few added 1% rare equips.

If I do my improvements daily like the game recommends me to, will I be able to catch up to the rate at which they implement new equipment to improve at some point or do I need to spend a whole bucnh of screws at once? I stopped playing for a few months last year and now I feel like it's coming back to bite me on the ass

>>14928263
They won't add gacha.

>>14928265
You can spend a bunch at any time later, so just take it easy.

>>14928265
Depends how you define "catch up".

>>14928262

>Inb4 we get goddess of victory Kai Ni

>>14928279
I really like Ooshio, I hope it's her.

>>14928275
I'm barey halfway through equipping all my BBs with decently improved guns, and I haven't even started cruiser guns or torpedoes. At this point I have no idea what to prioritize anymore

How does Graf's 10.5cm compare to an upgraded 90mm? I have no idea what stat bonuses dual purpose guns get

>>14928279
Arashio for life

>>14928297
90mm made the 12.7+AAFD obsolete.
10.5cm is a silly gun for silly botes.

>>14928279
I'm fine with any of them.

>>14928297
If you cannot upgrade it, it's probably not worth using.

>>14928297
Upgraded 90mm is better. HAs get FP, Acc and AA.

>>14928262
And it's probably going to be Survivorguiltshio, isn't it? Meh.

>>14928317

Geez I wonder why, it couldn't possibly be because she doesn't have planes right?

>>14928346

>>14928346
Anyone tried a comp with the Army Dog?

I have a feeling I might not need so many sonars.

>>14928393
Army dog automatically starts you on the right which is worse than left.

>>14928346

>>14928397
Why are type 3 depth charges so much more rare than type 3 sonars?

>>14928397

>>14928397
Did you really have nothing better to upgrade than 16 sonars?

>>14928393
I tried a few runs with Akitsumaru + Yamato + Zuikaku + Ooyodo + 2 DD.

Getting to the boss felt easier than the double Rulette, but I always got wrecked at the boss node before even reaching yasen. Zuikaku and Yamoto's high health and armour just meant they were sent straight to taiha instead of chuuha and Ooyodo kept getting sniped.

Not pictured is my C rank from yasen.

Yeah, before I crafted Hotels and Bisko, when devs said evasion vs torpedoes is increased. I was doing quite a lot of 5-1.

About to start 4-5 for the first time this month. The map looks mind boggingly complicated. What composition and route should I be using?

She's missing a critical part.

>>14928582
I think you mean two.

>>14928580
She just voiced the new Seiba kai10 m8

this is clearly made for anti-PVP

>>14928605
>no carrier
>no sub
LEL, easy S rank and easy xp.

>>14928605
I don't see any carriers and a sub.

>>14928605
That's clearly not

>>14928603
That makes her relevant again right guis?

>>14928605
Anti-PVP is two level 1 ships in the top two spots.
This will give loads of XP, and it's also not that difficult to win against.

>>14928614
Yes

>>14928605
No, it's clearly pro PvP. Oneshottable flagship and waifu in second spot.

>>14928614
Although I am still upset about them delaying my sacchin route for almost a decade now by remaking seiba #1241252352 but type moon shit is still clearly printing money.

So do you guys think they'll "fix" pillboxes the same way they "fixed" PT boats?

>>14928638
She's not even an Arturia clone, definitely not relevant.

What high angle gun to use on Maya when you don't have the 90mm pasta gun?

>>14928361
Actually she does, but only sometimes.

>>14928646
Bunker Imps are hard as fuck with no evasion, PT Imps had broken evasion that not even the special equipment did shit against them. At least the rockets and AP shells do something unlike secondaries and DD guns did during Fall event.

Is anyone else not able to connect to the game? I don't get any sort of cat message, the screen is just completely white and never loads. I think if I wait long enough it eventually gets to a Connection Timeout screen or something.

>>14928662
>At least the rockets and AP shells do something unlike secondaries and DD guns did during Fall event.
Secondaries and DD guns did do something during Fall, it was only in the first 2 days that they didn't.

Does it even matter? The devs can just as easily plug holes in what hasn't already been upgraded.

Isn't it already confirmed Michishio here? Or am I mistaken somewhere?

It says one of DesDiv8.

>>14928723
Wasn't Michishio in DesDiv8?

>>14928722
Yes, it is just deluded Asashiofags still being in denial.
Fought bravely and sunk is definitely a hint for Leyte. Newest tweet just removed the possibility of Asagumo and Yamagumo.

>>14928723
Oh. I thought it says the one survivor of DesDiv8.

>>14928725
Yeah but it's still up in the air for which one. It's leaning towards Michishio, though.

>>14928727
>Newest tweet just removed the possibility of Asagumo and Yamagumo.
Arare too, since she was with Kagerou, Shiranui, and Kasumi.

>>14928204
Let's just say everything that isn't already upgradable.

>>14928223
I don't think they'll be available from upgrading. A different system would be in order.

I dislike how the only way to gain ammo is to wait for expeditions to come back. Everything else you can actively farm, but I have 3 expeditions dedicated to bringing back ammo and I still can't seem to make up for my expenses. Plus it's boring

>>14928673
12.7cm HA+AAFD
Nobody has these.

>>14928755
Just because you can actively farm a resources doesn't mean you should

>>14928755
Stop sortieing useless hotels.

>>14928755
Send fodder to 1-6, grab 20 ammo, scrap them.

>>14928755
Musashi and Yamato would like to thank you for your patience.

>>14928755
Do some 5-1 training for a change.
Try to use CAV and BBV instead of CA and BB.

>>14928755

2/5/21 is like 400+ ammo per hour, especially with daihatsu and great successes. It's not hard to get thousands per day.

>>14928761
The ones that made it a few days before 90mm were added do.

>>14928755
>Everything else you can actively farm

Not that it matters but you can't really farm bauxite efficiently.

>>14928777
>2/5/21 is like 400+ ammo per hour

That's almost one sortie.

>>14928777
I spend thousands per day on training

>>14928780
>>14928784
Rethink your fleet choices.

>>14928761
Just wait, once they make it upgradable it will be better than the pasta gun.

>>14928780
>>14928784
Stop using useless hotels, Jesus Christ.

>>14928784
You are training way too many heavy ships at a time.

>>14928755
Spamming 2 and 5 has given me ammo out the ass. I don't have hotels yet, though.
If you're not low on bauxite and you have the time, you can do 2/5/21 and send subs to 3-2, you'll get a decent balance. You'll get more steel per hour than 37 if you do 3-2 twice per hour, which is pretty easy.

>>14928780
>>14928784

What the fuck are you doing? Outside of some EOs, which is a monthly thing, you really shouldn't be spending all that much to outweigh the gain.from it. Stop throwing hotels at everything if you want to gain resources.

>>14928761
I made one just to fill my equipment dex.

Do I really need to keep Akitsu's recon plane when I can just hoard more autogyros?

>>14928809

しびれるねぇ

Probably should have taken the cue from Maya.

>>14928884
How much did you lose?

>>14928884
Why were you taking 3CV to PvP? Especially against a Maya?

>>14928887
Most of them were carrying fighters, so only 200 baux or so.

>>14928890
Was hoping the Ise-class could DA their way to victory in day battle. In the end Satsuki took out more of them than the BBVs combined did.

>>14928900
I hope you learned your lesson and will remember that PvP belongs to destroyers and cruisers.

>>14928884
Why is AACI so effective in PvP anyway? I thought that Maya should only be able to take out 8 planes max against the plane slot she's assigned to.

>>14928915
Because the enemy fleet in PVP follows abyssal rules, not player rules. Never wondered why they couldn't 1shot one of your ships but you can?

>>14928915
Because our ships have better AA than most of abyssals so AA fire shoots down a lot. If you get a bad roll and Maya is chosen for AA, say goodbye to your planes*. Difference is even bigger with eq, for example you should assume every DD has two Akizuki guns.

*actually that a reason why single Akizuki is more dangerous to your carriers than whole PvP fleet - because the game always uses her monstrous AA.

>>14928915
It's not just AACI, it's AA in general. Abyssal AA is significantly weaker than player AA. In fact, a fully-modernized Zuikaku Kai Ni Kou has roughly the same AA capabilities as an elite Tsu (minus the AACI).

>>14928915
Just don't bring any bomber planes. Problem solved.

>>14928924
A taiha is pretty much a 1 shot

>>14928935
Good job, you wasted a slot which prevented you from getting S rank.

>>14928936
No, you're really dumb.

>>14928915
You are not supposed to bring bombers.
Just bring Taihou filled with 4xReppuu or bring along 1saiun.
This will get you either AS or parity to prevent double attack from enemy site. Easy S rank.

ｗｗｗｗ ｔｂｈ ｆａｍｐａｉ

I don't understand how to win pvp. I thought I could easily beat this one guy because he only had 4 boats, but by the end of day battle I had 3 rekt boats and he only had one with even minor damage. then when I went to night battle I didn't target his flagship once.

>>14928938
What the fuck did I just read

>>14928959
>boats
Stop calling them that and you'll start winning.

>>14928963
they're shit canoes until they stop missing every shot

>>14928959
Fully modernized ships, at least a BB in proportion to the enemy's composition, and AS. The more of these factors you lack the less chance you have at beating anyone in PvP.

>>14928965
Enjoy never winning then.

But at the same time, I wanted to get some motivation from you guys.

>47/50 transports

>doesn't even die in day battle

>>14929101
You know KCV has a screenshot button right?

>>14928967
I had 2 battleships, 3 heavy cruisers, and a destroyer against akashi, shocuckoo, ashigara, and rj. all my my rafts were fully modernized except for aa, and one of my cruisers had an aa setup, although I think I had it wrong. like I said though the problem was that every single one of my attacks either missed or only did minimum damage.

So after taking the longest routing in history, with 2 lunch breaks and 1 damecon spent, I still would have almost lost if Tone hadn't decided to be the MVP and actually target Ritou in yasen.

Was it worth it? I have no idea.

>>14929052

>>14929141
What do you mean? They're right there.

If there's one thing I like about this composition, it's that the hotels can easily blow away the artillery imps before they start destroying your girls.

>>14929132

>>14929132

>>14929156
>>14929164
>>14929176
I want to stress that this didn't just cost regular resources. Hayasui will be consuming at least 2 P2W drums (and most likely a damecon) before you even get to the boss. I was also in Green T at the boss node.

I really don't recommend this route at all because the RNG goddess basically threw me a bone. Please try looking for other compositions instead.

When do you think they'll implement an interesting K2? Will we see nothing but mediocre DDs and daihatsu carriers for a whole year? DD is probably the most competitive class since you can luck modernize almost any of them and it'll work out. There's one CL right now and no one else is on her level.

>>14929283

Is Zara made of paper ? Because every time i sortied her she came back with only one HP left.

>>14929292
I know you can certainly not use her but there's no denying that she's just a level above everyone else solely because of the opening torp. If you really like one of these mid-level DDs, you can max their luck out and they'll fulfill the same purpose as any of the elites. They'll do less damage, sure, but in the worst case scenario that just means you have to be more diligent in clearing whatever it is you wanna clear. No matter how much you love and modernize Sendai or Tenryuu or Kuma or whatever CL, they don't have an opening torpedo and that's a disadvantage. It's not NECESSARY, but it's a disadvantage that can't be made up.

On top of the practical stuff it's just boring to see these DDs get picked out like this. It feels like forever since Kako and Choukai got updated sprites and looks.
