Yuubari is cute.
Wait, Asashio is getting a Kai 2?
When was this announced?
Shit, I gotta get 5-1 running.
Do the 1-4 and 1-6 quests force me to only use 5 ships or can I add one whatever?
>>15370963
You can add 1 whatever.
>>15370959
Still speculation
Do I go for the risk?
>>15370989
Never, you faggot.
>>15370989
4-4 is piss easy. Don't do it
>>15370989
It gets harder and harder to do every event because you get too much unique equipment, so yes.

>>15371040
Nothing.
There was a possibility I'd never have reached the boss node again so I was willing to sacrifice my Shiratsuyu just so I could see how hard the boss was.
I'm glad she didn't sink though.
>>15371064
Neat.
>>15371026
Embarassing. You didn't even kill the boss.
>>15371064
Oh god. The guy who made the sleeve is a genius.
>>15371064
Fucking meganefags.
Huh. That's a new one.
>>15371097
Great failure.
>>15371058
That's retarded, and you have to kill the boss like 4 or 5 times to clear it anyways.
>>15371064
Delet this
>>15371109
The starters look cute.
>>15371064
God damm it.
>>15371149
Those look actually good compared to the girls with glasses in the game.
>>15371158
Even Fubuki?
>>15371189
Yeah, all of them.
>>15371149
Granny Bucky.
For Bw10, is it enough to sink the boss sub with a Zuiun Fusou? Or should my CL be full ASW?
Yuubari is fucking kuso
What equipment should I take to clear 3-2?
>>15371149
This is god tier.
>>15371217
Did you do 1-5 in your life before?
>>15371218
At least a half-functional brain.
>>15371149
>no mod to give everyone glasses
>>15371082
That wasn't even my goal to begin with, anon. I was prepared to get a D rank just to see how hard it was but was surprised I got A rank instead.
>>15371106
I know.
I'll give it another go as soon as I get my girls repaired and have enough resources to waste. Least its easier than fucking 3-4
>>15370941
>hae
Do you even bother to proofread the news you write? Seriously.
>>15370609

>>15370634
I didn't do either of that.

Why don't you make the OP yourself if you have a problem with a missing letter?
>>15371149
I'll never get meganefags and their need to put glasses on everyone.

Is there anyone reason to keep the pasta blasters they come with on Pola and Zara?
>>15371348
dismantlement dailies
>>15371348
Long range
>>15371356
They have long range without 'em.
>>15371348
CA flagship leveling at 3-2
>>15371359
Oh, you meant using them on Pola and Zara. No.
>>15371366
They're pretty shit on any other CA, I find. Miss heaven.
>>15371370
My current memestrat is to pair a pasta gun with an SKC so that the CA gets long range while the accuracy bonus compensates for the penalty.
>>15371389
There's no benefit to that over using 2x sangou (+6~10), is there?
>>15371348
5-1 monthly equip it on Yodo
1 pasta gun
2 sonar
1 dc
>>15371370
Just pair it with an upgraded gun then. I've only used it for long range ASW though.
>>15371408
That's a pretty good idea, actually.
So android finally today right?
>>15371421
If you mean android alpha test with more bugs than they could fit into the spring event, then yes
>>15371427
Well, good thing half of the players who got into the Alpha test don't even have an Android.
>>15371427
Can't wait to have my ships sink each other during a sortie like some sort of absurd mutiny.
>>15371427
Maybe they fucked up the event this hard because their workforce went to Android.
>>15371427
We are probably getting some beta test exclusive furniture and/or equipment with some bonus if you acumulate certain number of hours playing on Android.
>>15371392
Unlikely, other than the range placebo.
>>15371407
>5-1 monthly equip it on Yodo
Tried it. It's useless.
>>15371427
Can't wait to find missing ships or all my planes gone after the maintenance ends.
>>15370968
Really? I did it with 5 ships.
Oh well.
>>15371348
Wait, pasta blasters aren't fit on pastas? I thought they had something to offset its minus to accuracy.
Replacing them with 20.3cm asap.
>>15371528
CAs don't have fit guns.
Sparkling is fucking annoying.
>>15371528
>>15371533
Not even a super secret special hidden bonus in whatever phase of combat? It's retarded, but not surprising.
>>15371278
Some faces look cuter.
>>15371624
The only "super secret special hidden bonus" for CAs is some accuracy in the (3)s. And is probably just an urban legend.
>>15371528
All gun implemented after the implementation of the nigh battle bonus did not get the night battle bonus.
List of android client compatible phones: http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/KanColle_Android
>>15371883
As expected, this shitty corporate issued Sony Xperia M2 is not supported.
>>15371941
So? It will still run most likely.
>>15371944
I was looking for a new secondary phone anyway. I have my eyes on the 1+ 3.
>>15371883
Oh fuck me with a cactus.
Where did they even get that list from, by the way?
>>15371994

>>15371883

I'll laugh if it's not supported. Then cry a lot.

>>15370971
No it's not.

We'll know by tomorrow how it works anyway.

The discussion is about the supported devices by the devs and that tweet says nothing about them.
>>15371883
>huawei supported
Aw yiss. Being a poorfag finally pays off.
>>15371883
These are just most likely the devices that passed from the ones they tested to determine what the minimum required specs should be.
It gets kind of redundant to test phones massively stronger than min specs.
>>15371361
CA (and CL too) don't need long range to get MVP in 3-2A, just RNG for double attacks.

It helps against 5 enemies.

>>15371788
Normal 20.3 and 20.3 (3) give bonus accuracy to CAs in yasen. One is enough to get the bonus. Only yasen, only CAs.
>>15371590
Try sparkling ex5. And then try sparkling ex6. During the event which requires route support. This is true hell.
>>15372492
>he doesn't have every one of his ships sparkled before the event
>>15372492
Ex5 isn't so bad, but Ex6 is a pain in the ass.
>>15371590
>>15372492
Sparkling's quick and easy with fodder Maruyu's though, and you can level them up to kai at the same time.
>>15372510
>quick and easy
Sparkling is easy no matter what method you use, it is just annoying.
>>15372501
Even if you sparkled whole fleet it wouldn't last for whole event.
>>15372504
Try them together.
I'm gonna prepare better next time, E7 was closer than I'd like it to be. 50k turned out to be enough once again but it was kinda stressful.
>>15372510
It isn't quick at all. You have to sparkle 5 ships every day for ex5 and it takes >40 minutes. With ex6 it's 2.25 times worse. Meanwhile sparkling for events is a huge pain because of all the escort and eq switching.
>>15372532
How is your night time expeditions not providing enough bauxite? I never run ex6.
sparkling fucking sucks, I limit myself to route support and boss support FS if I absolutely must. Fuck that shit, after 3 years I don't want to see 1-1 ever again.
>>15371064
>>15371149
DELET THIS
>>15372529
>>15372532
Just go watch some anime or something while you do it.
>>15372545
I had 30k when event started and Harukaze was refusing to drop.
>>15372571
Such a great idea, having to pause anime every fucking minute and taking longer breaks every three sorties for changing the fleet.
Pixiv hunt is the only thing you can realistically do while sparkling.
>>15372579
A second monitor lets you watch stuff while mindlessly clicking.
And swapping out a banged up Maruyu and your sparkle-ee takes seconds and minimal brain processing power.
>>15372532
how do you make sparkles on 5 ships last for 8 expeditions?
>>15372579
You don't even need a second monitor.
At this point I think I sparkled my girls so often that I could do it in my sleep.

I read manga.
>>15372623

>>15372623
Why is Strike Witches on a boat so bad?
>>15372666
Captain Mike is overpowered.
>>15372666
It teases naval combat and a serious plot in the first two episodes, but neither actually happen.
Harekaze's main armaments, its torpedoes, hasn't hit a single ship since episode one.
>>15372691
Her thighs are a lot better than her boobs.
>>15372691

>>15372712
>Harekaze's main armaments, its torpedoes, hasn't hit a single ship since episode one.
So, it's realistic?
>>15372724
It's never going to be realistic when there are no planes but all the ships have AA guns.
>>15372666
It's quite enjoyable.
>>15372666
It isn't.
>>15372724
Realistic but still bullshit.
>>15372623
I pretty much do everything at the same time as playing Kantai Collection. Play other games, watch shows, etc.
Multitasking while sparkling or running the same old sorties doesn't take much effort.
Well, this was surprising.
>>15372712
I so desperately wanted it to be a show about one kanchou and her quest to sink the entire IJN but it wouldn't work because they could never be resupplied.
>>15372759
>his Kashima isn't 99 yet
>>15372762
She could raid, or have foreign intervention.
>>15372762
Quite a few people on /a/ thought it'd be infighting shenanigans, since the washout DD with the daughter of the school headmaster just happened to get framed in a mutiny.
Honestly, a lot of things could have worked, but I guess we'll have to deal with mind control hamsters. At least the girls are cute.

>Harekaze's main armaments, its torpedoes, hasn't hit a single ship since episode one.
What, are we even talking about the same show?
Will the game ever be available in a higher resolution? Kadokawa has the money, just give the devs a higher budget already.

Episode 1: They hit the Sarushima with a Torpedo.
Episode 2: They disabled Graf Spee's screws with their main guns. (iirc torpedo crew said they didn't even have any torps at this time until they were refueled later)
Episode 3: They shot I-whatever with guns.
Episode 4: No combat apart from Tama blazing away with a 25mm AA gun that shouldn't exist. They got torp reloads at htis time.
Episode 5: They just dicked around Musashi.
Episode 6: They shot the mines I guess.
Episode 7: Rescue Episode.
Episode 8: Hiei evaded the torps (Harekaze's crew hoped shed did)
Episode 9: Graf didn't try to dodge the torps, but they were never intended to be at the right depth anyway and Graf was undamaged.
Harekaze's torps haven't hit a single ship since Episode 1.

They're obviously saving them for anti-Musashi action. Torpedoes are the only thing they have which are even the slightest bit effective against it.Apparently there's gonna be a huge twist though so even that might be low-balling it.
>>15372859
I'm hoping they accidentally shoot at the bridge.

There should be a Kancolle event where a hideously overpowered abyssal fleet has to battle through four of your fleets before getting to your designated boss fleet. After you finish setting up your intercepting fleets, you can watch a fleet of carrier princesses and their Re-class escorts punch through your defenses like a hot knife through butter.
The enemy brings support, of course.

I've been using the same fleet since the event ended and they've never choked like today before so it's clearly not my fault.

>>15373162
You should scrap her then.
Does Roma改 have 92 or 94 HP? The wiki and wikia both have different information regarding both (wikiwiki says that she has 92 though).
And also, is there any other ship that would benefit from having their HP increase after marriage (including those that have their HP turn from odd to even HP like Musashi)? I don't want to marry any ship but I want to finish my last non-repeatable quest.
>>15373370
>>15373218
Except that Bismarck requires far less resources and is better in night battle.
>>15373370
Odd HP and 31 HP is the biggest meme right now, it doesn't matter if her name is not Maruyu.
>>15373370
>would benefit from having their HP increase after marriage
See this chart. Taiha probability from a crit is basically the value in the colored boxes.
>>15373370
Only ships that don't completely benefit from increased HP from marriage are HP31 DDs and even they benefit from the HP increase for maps like 3-5 south

I thought it was supposed to be the "multiple-of-12-HP" at the moment.
>>15373407
I was looking at that; Musashi is the only ship I can think of that would "benefit" from marriage in terms of overkill protection from having her with even HP (along with their taiha % chance being lowered as well). Was wondering if there were others or not since I personally don't have all kanmusu at max remodel yet.I was thinking either her, Roma, or 鬼神 though.

>>15373625
How long will this one last, 8 hours?
>>15373595
That works for me; they're not suited for yasen damage anyhow so as long as there is a positive gain (taking away from taiha-chance).
Any others you can think of? I'm also looking at the ones that have odd HP as well but there's only a limited number of them that actually benefit from the temporary marriage.

If it doesn't get extended.

M2 is never sold in Japan.

P2 is the only Huawei from P series that have ever been sold in Japan

The problem is why are there so many devices that are not fully compatible.

No, the devs should scrap her. As in, remove her from the game.
>>15373741
They don't need to remove her from the game, just remove her from combat. She can become another Food Supply Ship.
>>15373786
Did Iowa ever fill that role IRL?
>>15373741
If you don't like her, you should scrap her.
Make sure to post results here.

This, I sank Amagi but still trying craft Bismarck to sink.
I got 4 mutsus from 5-4 but still no cranes. I thought you said they were common.
>>15373887
I once got two cranes in row. There were multiple times when I got two in one day.
3 minutes.
Farewell, maybe this is the maintenance where I finally kill myself
Ogre
Why..
Guess we just post cute kanmusu now.
>>15373976
They finally discovered that you're a waito piggu?
>>15373982
Still waiting for you to start.
>>15373982
Her body language screams annoying brat.
Why is there nothing about maintenance in the OP? I was just about to go to bed, already set my expeditions and refueled them and THEN got the cat, god damnit.
>>15373982
Asashios are really underrated, they are full of cuties.
>>15373993
What's wrong with you?
>>15374002
There's a message about maintenance right below the game window.
>>15374014
Nothing, pic related is what a real cute ship looks like.
>>15373659
Ushio also benefits from it.
She isn't an 'elite' though.
>>15374003
Meh, the Fujikawa ones stand out as well as Kasumi with being an Operation Ten-go bitch, and Asashio being that unique honor student.
>>15374014
She was literally about to hit you, how can you call that cute?
>>15374045
She couldn't go through with it, that's what's cute.
>>15374032
Asashio is doesn't even know what marriage is.
