News:
-Kawakaze gets a Kai 2 at level 75, which can equip daihatsu but not Ka-Mi. She now also drops at 2-5.

This thread is good.

>Official arcade gameplay demonstration,

Well fuck me.
Never mind, I'll fix it next thread.
>>15121698
>>15121698
Ass creed copied the gundam pose? That's pretty lame.
>>15121699
>Right
Infinitely better.
>>15121698
You should fuck off back to facebook.
There isn't much to talk about when everyone is idling because of the event.
>>15121746
We can complain on how the devs still have not said what operation it will be with a week left until the event.
>>15121746
I could rant for hours about kuso ichiso being a huge fucking faggot, but I'm not in the mood today.
>>15121746
Is it time to rank the carriers and speculate about which Asashio will get the kai ni?
AGP Otto
>>15121767
What do you think about these 2qt?
>>15121768
Kaga best
Asashio next
>>15121780
>Kaga
It's not 2014 anymore though.
>>15121779
What's the context of this image?
>>15121768
>Asashio will get the kai ni
Please don't. Give some other DD class or maybe a CV a K2, but please no more Asashios.
>>15121790
It's a year of rapebait and you're going to like it.
>>15121790
Next DD kai ni will be an Asashio-class want it or not, better level them all now.
>>15121779
Another ripoff? This time it's not even being subtle.
>>15121790
What's wrong with Literallywhoshios? Other than being inferior to the Kagerous and the Yuugumos?
>>15121779
>some fanartist traced an offical sprite
Who cares?
>>15121798
Again*
Just give the next K2 to an SS like Imuya or Shioi.
>>15121790
>Give some other DD class
Someone from Shiratsuyu-class then.
>maybe a CV
I vote for Ryuuhou, she's really unplayable during events.
You know who needs kai ni? Kaga and Akagi.
>>15121767
Share your rape stories somewhere else ya faggot.
>Kai-2
>Other DDs
>CVs
There's a bunch of CLs that need more love
Is this the real new thread?
>>15121808
>Someone from Shiratsuyu-class then.
How about 'no, fuck kuso ichiso'?
>I vote for Ryuuhou, she's really unplayable during events.
Fucking ichiso bias, if we're talking about being unplayable, what about Houshou?
>>15121815
Those two are pretty alright, but Houshou, Ryuuhou, Zuihou and Shouhou need it much more, they are the Mutsukis of CVLs.
>>15121835
Houshou is useless. Nobody wants that.
>>15121829
Kuma is strong enough Kuma. I just want an art upgrade.
>>15121829
Why would you want more CLs when you already have girls like Dangerbear?
>>15121840
Give her some gimmick and people will want it.
>>15121828
Get fucked. Don't respond if it triggers you that much.
>>15121835
>pretty alright
Kaga lost her best CV status quite some time ago.
>>15121834
>How about 'no, fuck kuso ichiso'?
Don't worry, Amamiya will return and draw SuzukazeKai Ni.
>>15121864
She can be alright while not being the best.
>>15121829
CLs are so fucked no matter what you do. We need based Ooyodo to take down the Abookuma monopoly.
>>15121867
Then disappears for good?
>>15121855
I highly doubt it.
>>15121875
Back to 6-4 nerd
>>15121875
In the era of artillery imps and installations Abookmark is always benched.
>>15121868
>She can be alright while not being the best.
Not for statwhores, in their case it's pure dichotomy: "best" or "useless".
I want a Shioi K2. I bet they'll do a reverse Yuu on her and she'll actually lose her tan.
>>15121878
Gives exp boost like Katoris, but it works in actual sorties.
>>15121886
>benching the only CL that can use Ka-Mi
>>15121895
What kind of person can actually waste a slot in this day and age for 2%+ exp?
>>15121888
I keep Kaga around because there are situations where large slots are still useful. And she's still the best Reppuu mule; even if Reppuu mule setups are rarely used nowadays, there's still a chance that they'll be used.
>>15121908
Some people will probably use it for shit like 3-2-A. It still won't be worth it though.
>>15121894
Subs are in drastic need of Kai 2. Right now they are as fragile as gray abyssal subs while their offensive power isn't that great.
If we're talking about wishful thinking, I'd kill for Goya and/or Iku Kai 2. The latter should be as strong as flag So, minus the armor.
>>15121903
She can't double attack at night if you put more than one anti-installation equip on her and she has less firepower than Kasumi.
>>15121903
Double attack in day and night or going all out with the overcrits in night when in air denial is way better than a single attack.
>>15121903
On average most people will have 2tank, for Kasumin and Ooshio. If you bring a CL, you would bring a 4slotter for double WG42.
>>15121768
Arashio.
>>15121894
Or maybe give her an even darker tan.
>>15121925
They are generally used in cheese strat. If they got buffed without fixing it cheese strat will dominate, and if they fix it we will have no cheese strat anymore. Either one seems not ideal, hence subs should stay this way.
I'm just curious if the tank works in the main fleet of combined fleet. I hope it does not or else I'll be stuck in tank developing hell.
Why does senka.me go down every day?
>>15122017
What, are you going to use AVs with a tank over BBs with AP-shells? Have fun with that.
>>15122025
Because maintenance always fucks it up and the person maintaining the site doesn't even play the game
>>15121894
Here you go.
With increased plane count
>>15122079
I hate it. Will kept her unremodeled.
>>15121925
>Subs are in drastic need of Kai 2.
They are the most used class during the off season.
>>15122098
What's there to hate? I'll take 10.
>>15122121
Good luck with those endless LSCs.
Cutest JK.
xth for the cutest
>>15122191
>master1200
>>15122183
Suzuya K2 when
>>15122156
I may not like Shibafu, but I like it when artists adopt different things other artists have established, like Fujikawa drawing Yamagumo and Asagumo to have the same uniform and rigging as Michishio. It really makes the class feel united.
>>15122203
>all dimensions less than 1200px
>>15122191
Cutest CLT
>>15121768
DRAGONS ARE THE CUTEST
>>15113030
All the time before Cranes K2. Easy stuff.
>>15122212
It cannot come soon enough. I love Tone and Chikuma but I'd really love to see SuzuKuma updated with a K2 too.
>>15122475
Don't see it happening any time soon since all Mogamis just got a "buff".
>>15122482
One can dream, Anon. ;_;
>>15122482
Mogami's extended plane slot is quite nice desu.
Will 2 CA K2 be enough to spring easy?
>>15122574
Get Takao and Atago to Kai.
>>15122574
You can do easy without K2 ships at all.
If this weeks weeklies are done there will be 1 day to do the new monthlies before the next weekly reset right?
>>15122545
The damage boost isn't that much different, is it? I'm getting 44.8 vs 53.8 attack power with Seiran, 6->11 planes.
It does help with AACI though.
>>15122574
I was forced to do medium on my first event and my highest leveled ship was lv40.
Is anybody else ranking this month? Everybody is gaining 10-30 points on average, I might as well power rank for top500.
>>15122598
Yeah. I started late and was out for a couple of days but top500 still looks quite safe.
>>15122593
Who uses CAV for seirans after plane proficiency anyway? Seiran damage is too small for most maps and you get no fighter power
>>15122610
>killing DD is bad
>getting +9 fighter power is bad
>>15122598
I am. Went from rank 1400 to 600 in 4 days with 5-5 untouched.
>>15122617
Seiran gives 0 fighter power even with chevrons though
>>15122624
Read the wiki or install KCV.
Will Ooyodo finally deliver this week or will she fail miserably once again?
>>15122649
Too busy working overtime like the workaholic she is.
>>15122649
>finally
She delivered many times.
Is Ooshio K2 a necessity for this event?
>>15122649
This thread doesn't deserve her so she left.
>>15122627
I stil don't know how they plan to cover all dev costs with just 30k. I don't care about the game but that bit makes me curious.
>>15122663
Devs are being too secretive this time, so we don't know.
>>15122649
Nobody bully Yodo by posting her picture early, OK?
>>15122674
D'you reckon it'll be safe to wait til after the event? I need to stop leveling ships and finish saving resources
>>15122671
I doubt they will be able to, in all honesty. They'd either have to hire very shitty VAs, somehow convince VAs to take minimal amounts of monetary compensation, or cut back on voices. They don't seem to have realistic budgeting knowledge.
>>15122683
65 wont take that long to get to. Or you could do a "just incase" bit of levelling and get her to 50 or so, that way if she is required it wont take long to get her to K2.
Let's do our best this week as well.
>>15122744
>3 (three) seconds late
>>15122236

>>15122744

>>15122574
I only had takao at level 34, I rushed leveled ashigara and nachi and will probably level kako or furutaka next.
How much will clearing the event on hard cost this time?
Place your bets.
>>15122977
-40 IQ and -80% sanity.
>>15122977
50k is enough.
>>15122977
30k without hotels.
>>15122977
Two weeks paid leave and four pizzas.
>>15122977
Less than pic related.
Were there tests to probe for the night scout's improvement? I guess it does not affect trigger chance.
>>15122977
about three fiddy
>>15123015
I don't think so yet, but hopefully it helps just like searchlight does. Upgraded seaplanes not helping with artillery spotting was just dumb.
>>15122977
Get out you himetard. You can shove your melon up your ass.
how much free slots do you have
>>15123070
What are you even talking about?
Is shitting on melon a thing now?
>>15123091
Twelve.
>>15123091
50.
>>15123098
I hope it wasn't the glasses.
>>15123091
I'm sitting around 180/220 currently. I have 5k or so DMM points banked from that bonus a while back so I can grab some more whenever they're needed.
>>15123091
160/180
I have 14k unspent points though
I hope there is a new CVL, I don't really like Shouhou enough to keep her.
>>15122977
Less than 10k and 50 buckets.
>>15123091
11 free slots, going to have to buy before the event.
Speaking of buying slots, do people still use webmoney or is there a new way to do that since DMM has been changed around a bit?
>>15123091
20 I think
>>15123195
They're out of CVLs.
>>15123199
>>15122990
>>15122987
Nice try, Wo.
>>15123091
4, but I'm planning on getting much more once I can throw away Maya, Takao, Atago and Choukai because of their quests.
>>15123251
You have too many DDs.
>>15123251
>Throw away Maya
For what purpose?
>>15123261
I already have high level Ashigara-class to attend to my CA needs.
>>15123237
Unless they add Independence-class.
>>15123237
They could go with escort carriers.
>>15123265
That is not the purpose of Maya. She's there for her unique AA power.
>>15123265
>Ashigara-class
>>15123276
Nachi has 83, Maya has 89. I'm not going to keep her just for that.
>>15123286
Ah yes, you're totally right. Go ahead and scrap her.
>>15123286
You know what? I give up. Go ahead and scrap her. Enjoy your extra slot.
>>15123091
10 right now but I'm holding onto some dupes for their equipment so I could scrap them if I needed to.
>>15123091
8.
I have 5 Maruyu and 3 Mikuma that I should level tho.
>>15123265
You realize you're throwing away the strongest AACI in the game, right?
>>15123323
>>15123337
She has lower priority as compared to Maya, though, so in theory you could roll with both for maximum potential AACI.
>>15123337
>>15123354
Also Maya is usually better in Suijo IMO.
>>15123337
Maya's AACI is still more potent than the ducks at the cost of 5% lower AACI trigger rate.
>>15123323
I guess I'll keep her now that I think about it since I don't need 8 free slots, but I imagine I would get rid of the others. They don't have redeeming qualities, do they?
>>15123337
I love my ducks and don't keep Maya in my fleet, but even I'm not deluded enough to believe their AACI is stronger than Maya's.
>>15123395
Just scrap Ashigara if you really want to get rid of a CA, it sounds like you have too many DDs.
Is there any reason do actually do this, equipdex aside?
>>15123405
Fuck no, I like Ashigara.
>>15123395
Choukai Kai Ni has better stats than any other CA (the difference is rather marginal, though) and gives a unique Kai4 radar that can be equipped on DDs for +8 Acc.
You can get rid of Takao and Atago.
And seeing as you didn't know about Maya K2's AACI, read the wiki.
>>15123398
I was mostly duckposting really, Maya's AACI is pretty great.
>>15123408
Absolutely not.
>>15123408
I have all 4 of mine at +1 for that easy extra placebo.
>>15123408
Just give them a +1.
>>15123368
I've found it that if surface fleet gives better routing it's unlikely you'll even need AACI.
>>15122632
>install KCV
Good advice if you want him to get banned.
>>15123408
Converting to Kai? Never. It's a waste.
Upgrading? Yes, at a lower priority than mostly everything else. Free Acc and LoS bonus with just 3 screws per T32.
>>15123441
Not this shit again.
>>15123441
>le KCV is hax ebin maymay
kill yourself
>>15123408
If you have enough screw and literally nothing better to upgrade then why not? Though it's a pretty unlikely scenario unless you buy screws.

>>15123501
What did he mean by this?
>>15123560
And now /tv/ memes as well. You are on a roll, crossboarder-kun.
Do people trying to level their favorite ships to 155 just do the same old 3-2-A or 4-3 over and over again?
>>15123601
5-4 is a magical place, you know.
>>15123549
My dick wouldn't be able to handle it
>>15123601
5-4 and PvP flagship also helps.
>>15123601
Once you graduate preschool and come to 5-4, you'll wonder what the hell you were doing on those maps to begin with.
>>15123601
There's no reason to ever go to any map but 5-4.

>>15123636
They wasted their energy on it, so now the event music will be crap.
>>15123636

I could list 2 dozens or even more better music than that but I'll jjust leave these 2, which are just chiptunes, to make clear my point.

>>15124055
5-3? I know there's a bunch of shitters around here who kuso their way through 1-6 but I don't recall seeing any for 5-3.
>>15124065

>>15124065
Kusos use 4 subs and 2 sacrifical DDs to clear it.

>C-Can I have more pls senpai?

マルキューサンマル。提督の皆さん、おはようございます！
今日は月曜日！「艦これ」四年目、そして新しい一週間がスタートしました！全ての準備が整えば、来週には春イベント2016:期間限定海域「開設！基地航空隊」の作戦展開が開始される予定です。今週も頑張ってまいりましょう！
We got a name, lads.
>>15124179
I hope those land based planes are stronger than shipborne ones.
>>15124179
This still doesn't tell me who to level.
>>15124205
Your installations.
>>15124205
Level your HQ, well duh.
>>15124179
So basically, we fight for some God forsaken piece of land just so the army can have its cute air strip.
Fuck you Tanaka.
>>15124205
Your HQ level.
>>15124198
