First for Kasumin
2nd for best DD class
I'll get Mizuho this time!
Dumb question, but is 6-1 S rank even possible? Even with boilers, subs always taiha on the first node no matter which route I go. Taigei can't do shit and none of the builds actually have enough firepower to kill the boss. Taigei 2dd 3ss was the only success I had and that was barely a clear with a B. Seems like bm2 is just a shitty quest worth skipping every time.
>>14690377
>but is 6-1 S rank even possible?
Yes.
>Seems like bm2 is just a shitty quest worth skipping every time.
Yes.
>>14690377
It is, but requires extreme luck because the subs will get beat up on the way. Irako without Mamiya is pretty pointless anyway.
>>14690377
>is 6-1 S rank even possible?
Yes.
>Even with boilers
Bad idea, you need the cut-ins to S rank. Also the more ships you sink with the opening torpedo attack, the better. Best defense is a good offense.
>Taigei
6 SS are better, she's only good at being cute.
>Taigei 2dd 3ss
CV, CLT, CL (ABKM) + 3 SS is the strongest composition IMO, is more expensive than 6 SS tho.
>is just a shitty quest worth skipping every time
Indeed.
>>14690313
>-KanColle will add Android support in Winter.
But it won't even work on foreign phones, right?
>>14690313
I fucking hate this ugly meme clothes. It is not even sexy like the sweater one. I never see it good on any character ever.
>>14690460
Nah, this cat keyhole meme is hundred times sexier than the sweater meme, but this one felt awfully forced.
>>14690454
I'm sure there is some wizardry you can do to get it to work when the time comes.
Holy shit looking through yesterday's thread I've honestly forgotten that expedition 5 existed
I haven't run ex. 5 in over half a year
>>14690326
Why is she wearing glasses? Does she know it can hurt your head?
>>14690585
5 is only three rows down from exp 2. There's no way
>>14690585
5 and 21 should be your first pick for ammo and fuel.
What are you running if not 5?
>>14690472
How the fuck is this 100x sexier when it's basically the same. It's styled like this only because nips go full retard when they see anything related to gay-furballs (some people call them 'cats').
>>14690726
I don't know about him but I always run 2/5/38. I like my steel, and ammo hasn't been a problem for a long time.
>>14690326
I still can't believe monkeyman became this good.
I thought his career was over after all the monkey business and the bashing that he received that people thought he rage quit after he changed his profile to taiha,
I haven't played kancolle for awhile (last time was the fall event), so can someone please tell me info on the next event? Like which ships should I prioritize, how big is the event, how much resources should I save, etc.
>>14690900
50k resources are enough, levels don't matter.
>>14690877
I only like the uniform. I thought it was going to be some kind of lazy recolor, but I was legitimately impressed.
>>14690900
Small event. Easy peasy. Level Kasumin
>>14690900
Get Kasumi to K2
>>14690377
Possible with CV and abukuma
>>14690900
Rei-Go fleet, Kasumin is mandatory.
>>14690914
>>14690907
Ok, but do I HAVE to?
>>14690900
4 maps easy peasy
rei-go fleet
50k resources are enough
graf and prinz will drop again for those who got unfortunate last event
>>14690919
It's her event, what do you think?
>>14690919
no, but it will make your life easier
Not having the historical fleet will most likely divert you to harder nodes.
>>14690919
No.
But don't come here to complain about shitty branching rules if you don't.
>>14690923
Isn't it just the Winter 2016 event? Besides, I don't even like her so I don't have her
>>14690930
>Isn't it just the Winter 2016 event
It's fucking Rei-Go.
現在「艦これ」鎮守府では来月【2/10(水)】作戦開始を目指して、冬イベ2016：期間限定海域【出撃！礼号作戦】の実装準備を進めています。また、同日実施予定のアップデートで投入すべく、重巡「衣笠」などの艦娘【バレンタイン期間限定ボイス】も鋭意実装準備中です。お楽しみに！
>出撃！礼号作戦
>>14690930
This event is based on Rei-go, which she was the flagship for, and her K2 can equip the FCF.
>>14690900
>I haven't played kancolle for awhile (last time was the fall event)
I don't see the reason why you should come back after abandoning your ships for quite awhile.
>>14690925
Oh wait. I actually have her at 30. She doesn't need to be kai ni to do the branching, right?
>>14690951
How the fuck are we supposed to know?
Does Tanaka browse this board?
>>14690951
You'll need both Kai 2 and Kai 2B at some point in the event. That means you need her at 88.
>>14690951
Get her to 88 for the red backpack
>>14690951
There's literally no reason to not have her at Kai2. She's the third best combat-oriented DD we have so far.
>>14690973
I don't like her so I don't keep her.
>>14690958
Her K2B is based on Ten-gou
>>14690958
>>14690968
But doesn't A have better stats?
>>14690979
He doesn't need to know that.
>>14690968
Ten-Go event coming hopefully within our lifetimes.
>Tan Yang, Hamakaze K2B, Saber K2B, Yankeegumo K2B, and Yahagi K2B all wearing bandanas and Yamato socks
Can't fucking wait.
>>14690985
There is no A, there is only Kai 2 and Kai 2B.
>>14690985
Yes but only just.
I rather have the cute red backpack and take a slight hit to her firepower.
>>14690988
It's literally going to be the final event. It will not come as long as the game is still popular.
>>14690999
The last event will be the bombing of kure.
>>14690988
>Tan Yang, Hamakaze K2B, Saber K2B, Yankeegumo K2B, and Yahagi K2B
Every time one of those happens we will be one step closer to death.
>>14691003
Your base will have an HP gauge
Waves of abyssals come at you
You defend your base for a whole period of two weeks
The more you don't play, the more your HP will reduce
how horrifying
>>14691015
Abyssals can't do that shit.
From what I have seen in the past events, even with 20% fuel and ammo, our girls can wreck abyssal bosses. What if it's 100%?
>>14690973
>playing for stats
ayy
>>14691040
Damn these Agano sprites need to be in the game.
so uh kasumi kai will do r-right?
>>14691040
Judging by the size of the bottom breasts and the hips, this one has to be Noshiro.
![c0104bb83037b2ac22ba91c001bac853[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/S0yUCia.jpg "c0104bb83037b2ac22ba91c001bac853[1].jpg")
>>14691052
How do you expect her to do her best if you don't show that you love her?
I hope you live in Japan if you want any of these.
現在「艦これ」鎮守府では、コンビニさんと展開するコラボ準備を進めています。多段階展開となる第一弾では阿賀野型軽巡四姉妹「阿賀野」「能代」「矢矧」「酒匂」冬の私服姿、働く練習巡洋艦「鹿島」の制服姿に、「連装砲ちゃん」や「北方棲姫」の新作公式アイテムなども投入予定です。
>>14691059
You can also just tell from the outfit.
>>14691040
my dick
>>14691063
translate it weebs
>>14691067
no you cant fuccboi
>>14691060
Well see, that's the thing. I don't love her in the slightest. Whatever, I'd rather take the harder routing than actually dedicate any sort of time or waste any PVP EXP on a ship I hate.
>>14691070
>no you cant fuccboi
Yes you can you dipshit, Noshiro is the only one with a light grey coat. The others that have big tits have a darker grey coat.
We'll get to see Kiyoshimo as abyssal this event.
>>14690313
So Graf and Mizuho are returning. Are they worth going after considering how much I suffered last event and the event before trying to get them separately?
140 fucking runs and not once did that woman show her face, while everyone around me encountered her on the first run!
And what's it like to beat RNG and succeed at S ranking every run?
I got about 20 S ranks, 50 A ranks, and the rest were taihas, and not for lack of well equipped girls!
>>14691078
So have you seen the whole image then? Why didn't you post it then faggot?
>>14691080
inb4 she's another BB hime clone
>>14691070
Sure you can.
>>14691082
You don't need to see the whole image, the devs have been using the Agano class winter outfit faces as twitter icons for weeks.
>>14691081
You can't get them with A ranks m8
>>14691091
Haven't seen this one yet, thanks senpai
>>14691081
Graf is kinda shitty for a CV and you could probably just use Chitose/Chiyoda in any situation where you'd actually need an AV.
>>14691082
over 9000 hours in paint
>>14691081
Only Mizuho is worth it, she has a fuck ton of LoS and 2 12 slot planes. Zepp is meh and too expensive for what she is.
>>14691098
Mizuho is the strongest av statwise
>>14691095
I know, I can thank Dyson for that. I cleared the boss fine almost every run, but she kept me down by being stubborn, or taihaing my ASW ships.
>>14691098
>>14691110
Good to know. Too much wasted time on shiny new girls I couldn't get if my life depended on it.
>>14691114
>slow
She's shit.
>>14691102
1 minute in photoshop.
>>14691114
The only time I needed an AV was for 6-3 and I cleared that before I got her.
>>14691102
>>14691131
Love you guys. Are we going to get these in game eventually?
>>14691148
Doubt it as they're just some sort of ad for some store if I recall it right.
>>14691154
An ad for fleshlights more like.
Why did you people reply to that retard? We knew Winter 2016 would be Rei-go and that Kasumi would get Kai Ni somewhere before last Summer, not playing since Fall doesn't excuse him in the slightest.
>>14691148
Most likely not, they're some kind of collaboration illustrations with some stores in Japan.
>>14691072
I await your tears at some point in the event.
>>14691170
The only tears we had last time were from people who either didn't have Hamakaze or used lv1 whatshernamezuki
People who had those at Kai were all smug.
>>14691069
are you etika from the past?
Is there any reason to level any duplicates of akitsumaru to kai ni? I've never used the equipment from my first 1 either
>>14691189
Yes, her Kai Ni is more amazing than Kitakami's.
>>14691189
I leveled a couple for the ASW planes. Probably don't need more than 3 or 4 sets.
>>14691189
The only time you ever use those planes is for 1-5 and you can S-rank the boss every time even without them.
I still level her for the equipment anyway.
>>14691189
kai* fucking hell
>>14691170
It's okay, love will find a way.
>>14691262
>45
>58
Your love is weak.
>>14691262
>love
You're not even at the halfway point.
>>14691266
I should have loved them more when I was still a NEET, now all my ample free time is gone.
>>14691262
Please apply yourself a little more.
>>14691280
NEET has nothing to do with it. I've gotten 200k on Kasumi in two weeks solely by farting around in PVP and having her leading expeditions.
>>14691262
>>14691280
I only do PVP and don't even grind them exclusively and even then they are higher level than yours.
>>14691304
All that spread around Mutsuki love.
>>14691304
>sonar
>>14691316
Nope. I guess it's just ex.21/37/38
>>14690920
>prinz will drop again
Only Graf and Mizuho were confirmed to drop again, not Prinz.
>>14691425
Oops, my bad.
>>14691425
Prinz is a good girl. She will come.
I still haven't get my second FuMO.
>Abukuma is annoying
>but not Prinz
Explain this.
>>14691487
Prinz is LITERALLY Chiyo
>>14691487
MINNA-SAN
>>14691487
Prinz has cute voice
Abukuma has annoying voice
I don't understand why or how you need this explained
>>14691499
ABKM's voice is heavenly, Prinz sounds like a cackling hyena.
>>14691487
>>14691502
Go back to your expedition Abu.
>>14691504
Kasumi took her place in expeditions
>>14691507
No, she joined her.
>>14691507
There are three expedition fleets.
>>14691487
You talking shit about Chiyoship?
>>14691487
I find both of them annoying.
![bd60256bdd00ffc2f2318efb99ff3e3d[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/pwXoPMN.jpg "bd60256bdd00ffc2f2318efb99ff3e3d[1].jpg")
>>14691487
Abu is too cute
>>14691487
Lesbo bias clearly, also never liked her fish eyes, purin a shit.
>>14691487
What are you talking about?
ABKM is my waifu while chiyoship is at the cold storage.
Cutest konishi ship
>>14691487
OP here, I like both.
Abukuma is made for bullying.
>>14691549
Her hair is really beautiful, but ichiban will remain as the special one for me, also fuck tanaka.

Shiratsuyu?
>>14691575
She's not even the ichibanest ichiban.
Being Isuzu is suffering.
>>14691588
Why is Abukuma so gay? Is it because nobody likes her and only has her abuser?
>>14691487
Dangerbear looks cute.
Dangerbear does not sound cute.
This is a crime, and whoever is responsible should be shot.
>>14691642
>>14691642

>>14691588
>tfw no delicious KTKM x ABKM doujin
>>14691663
You mean KTKM x ABKM with Ooi NTR.
>>14691616
ABKM and Ushio are bff

>>14691674
If I don't get another chance to rescue Akizuki/Eugen this event I will be very upset
>>14691674
You mean Ooi makes ABKM get raped by a dog and shoves a hot lightbulb down her hatch afterwards.
>>14691684
Admiral Hipper and Suzutsuki will be cuter
>>14691808
I thought that was pyon?
>>14691819
yeah and ABKM is next
>>14691808
Don't forget the part where she shatters the lightbulb while it's still inside her vag.
>>14691824
That kind of cruelty is unneeded in the first place.
>>14691835
That is fucked up.
>>14691810
>Suzutsuki
Why not Fuyuzuki from Teruzuki's seasonal joke?
>>14691855
Or Hatsuzuki from Akizukis library intro
>>14691487
Prinz is the most annoying secondary shit.
Okay newbie admiral here.
Is there any way for me to understand the different combat phases, the optimal equipment to use, what "cut in" attacks are, when ships attack twice, crit or miss, which slots to position my ships into and all that WITHOUT relying entirely on ominous formulas from the wiki that I don't even remotely understand? I read the entire page regarding combat but I did not learn a thing.
Maybe like a video or a guide that explains things step by step using examples instead of just raw formulas? Because as it is I have no idea what I am doing or what my ships are doing.
>>14692007
read the wiki
faggot
>>14692007
>I did not learn a thing
It's hard to play when you don't know both English and Japanese.
>>14692007
It's piss easy to figure out besides maybe cut-in setups and AACI setups.
>>14692007
Anon, it's not that hard to understand how the flow of combat works. Just because the formulas are there doesn't mean you need to completely memorize them and what they entail. Please reread the page.
>>14692007
You don't even need to know the formulas and shite to understand what cut-in attacks, etc. are.
Re-read the wiki. Don't focus on the formulas.
>>14692007
Use double main gun and seaplane on every ship that can use them. You will win every time!
>have to do the 5-1 monthly again tomorrow
ack
>>14692072
And DDs only get torps, luck is just placebo.
>>14692077
>wasting resources before the event
>>14692077
You can do it after the event you know.
>>14692007
That happens when you try to learn everything at once at the same time. Just keep playing the game and learn/apply as you go.
Kamo!
Will non-rankfags ever get the Nanzan? I guess I could ask the same question about the Keiun but that thing is beyond garbage.
>muh taihou fairy

I hope you'll never have it.

Yeah, potatonami is pretty shit.
>>14692232

Yeah why would anyone marry potatonami when Shikinami exists?

>>14692356
Fap.

>>14692356

Always follow your heart, not the number on the card.
>>14692383

>>14692400
Can't go wrong with a married Bisko.
>>14692400

What is the average level when people get their fourth fleet?
I have done nothing but grinding 3-2 and use whatever spare resources I had to built BBs, still don't have that last sister. HQ lv 58

>>14692496
That's normal. I didn't get Hiei until few days after Xmas.
>>14692499
If he knew which one had the best stats, I would.
>>14692499
Think of him as eugenics, he only want stats.
>>14692400
Either marry a hotel for great savings or marry a yasen cut-in ship for great accuracy clutch kills.
>>14692523
Or marry a CV so that she has more hp to sustain more damage before turning into chuuha.
>>14692506
>>14692513
And you do know how modern society looks at eugenicfags right?
>>14692450
Suddenly people like monkey man's art now. When will it be potato's turn?
>>14692564
He's only good with improving, not creating. Hagikaze looks terrible.

The dream.

That looks hot, does he draw for that MC Axis magazine? It seems like that is where Kadokawa selects their artists from.

>Liking those pig legs
I'm disappointed in you, anon.
Why is the game so blurry recently?
>>14692709
It's not.
>>14692709
Are you using KC3 Kai?
>>14692709
Squint your eyes.

>Bismarck
Marrying Bismarck is a symptom of maximum top pleb shit taste. Wait for Iowa and don't waste your ring on a shitty meme nazi boat.
Quick! Check if you've done all your EO's! Don''t forget to get a new API link when you play tomorrow, otherwise you face the risk of getting banned!

What were the fucking odds. I was even forced to bring hotel because I didn't want to bucket my already long list of casualties.

>>14692723
Can't fucking wait for Iowa to become statfag meme.

mikoto akemi pls
>>14692748
Who's that? Never heard of him.
>>14692742
Yeah, until it because obvious she is going to be the fast BB equivalent of the Yamato.
how do you even level this retarded boat?
>>14692767
>Forgetting the Pastas exist
>>14692770
3-2 flagship until marriage
>>14692770
5-4 flagship.
>>14692742
Bismarck will always be the biggest meme. Even Tanaka realized that she's so shit that she needed a fucking ``emergency" Kai 3 upgrade.
Is it possible for my ship to sink if I send her (heavy damaged) for expedition?
>>14692782
Yes
Decided I wanted to watch something awful so I'm watching the KanColle anime.
Why is it near impossible to tell some of the ships apart?Only watching this for Mutsu and Takao.
>>14692770
PvP only for this special kind of girl.I mean she even do a little damage in yasen.
>>14692785
>>14692783
50:50? Fuck.
>>14692787
Do you put planes? or 15.5/OTO guns?
>>14692771
Iowa just might be as expensive as Yamato, if historical accounts are used for a base.
>>14692796
If opponent have CV/CVL then 2 Reppuu and 2 yellow gun, if not then 4 best yellow guns,
Don't expect to much from her.
>>14692782
No, although I think it'd return as a failed expedition. Look at the Expedition page on the wiki
The fuck you doing anyway? She should be resting in the docks etc.
What's the actual gameplay for the Vita like?
I'm starting to feel bad for the ship to debut in it.
>>14692770
5-4 and PvP.
Shouldn't take that much time.
>>14692806
>The fuck you doing anyway? She should be resting in the docks etc.
Running out of resources because I'm retarded.;_;
>>14692770
made her tag along in 5-4 when I was leveling a few CAs
Android support when? I'm stuck with Chinkoller right now but it has a way better combat than Kancolle
>>14692832
Winter hasn't ended.
Zeppuu is so useless I'm probably scrapping her next event if she drops on the map I'm going to farm. At least her planes are useful
