Second for Iowa
Reminder not to bully Hoppoujust this month.
Where do I get the free mochi?
>>14872118
They collab with FGO, Lawson, and now sukiyaki restaurant? What's next?
>>14872075
Anime Fubuki looks better than game Fubuki.
>>14872138
Anything looks better than Shibafu.
Should I just accept the fact that tanaka has won, and just keep using kaga instead of taihao
>>14872136
>FGO
Never happened.
>>14872136
They also did a collab with family mart and arpeggio much earlier than those.
>FGO
That was just a bad shoop.
>>14872136
FGO became a Kancolle competitor, it never happened. I remember it was on the OP news for a while.
>>14872152
>Should I just accept the fact that tanaka has won
Yes
>and just keep using kaga instead of taihao
What on earth do you need Kaga for? I haven't sortied her in months.
>>14872118
She learned from last year and just gave us the mochi. Good girl.
>>14872152
Akagi is the better girl anyway.
>>14872241
Nice.
>>14872241
I can already hear then going ふっ…ふふふ in a dark corner of the room.
Incidentally
At this current state of the game, would I ever need more than four pasta BB guns?
>>14872279
Maybe if you don't have any other viable guns.
>>14872279
Unless Vittorio shows up, no.
I want to try >>14871667
Place your bet guys.
>>14872294

>>14872294
Fukou
>>14872294
At least get yourself fucking Yamato. Taihou is a luxury more tha useful.
>>14872294
First fucking try. Thanks /jp/.
>>14872279
Zero.
Lets look at the stats.
FP: 22 vs 21
AA: 5 vs 4
ACC: 2 vs -1
Just look at the ACC stats, it has a fucking -3 deficit without counting upgrade. You can probably even argue that the proto41cm can be better on pasta themselves due to the superior firepower and the default acc stats making up for the unfit debuff on pastas.
>>14872350
Many kek, can't wait for all the jelly (you) post.
>>14872350
Interesting.
>>14872332
But I don't like Yamato.Her chest is too big.
>>14872350
Nice.
>>14872352
Proto 41s aren't super-long-range though.
>>14872350
>>14872366
Most of that is the AP shell, she's not that big.
>>14872366

There is something going on
>>14872370
Hotels should always shoot first though.
I don't see the benefit of long range unless your cruisers/carriers are equipped with shitty pasta gun or scamp or fixing up MVP leveling.
>>14872118
Nips will shill every goddamn thing out there for moeshit.
Not that I'm complaining though.
>>14872350
Wow fuck off.
107 tries and still counting.
When will I get my own Thaihoe?
Fuck you and your luck, newfag.
>>14872404
No risk no gain anon.
He doesn't need to stockpile bauxite or do ex6 anymore. He is already half way there to catch up to the veterans.
>>14872414
I wish they'd shill KanColle cuties in the west
>>14872398
>>14872387
>>14872379
My taste=your taste. Deal with it.
>>14872404
I'm just abusing expedition while watching anime in the middle of it.
>that rank
Which one? I'm still not used to the game.
>>14872419I'm sorry.
>>14872422
I say getting Taiha so early is a bad thing since getting Akitsu Maru and Shioi's Seiran is more important.
>>14872424
And then what would happen when the normies, tumblrinas, and ultra serious patriot burgers found out about it? Just imagine the shitstorm there'd be if they found out that boats of the evil Japanese empire were being turned into cute girls, or worse, honorable American hero boats were being turned into cute girls that spoke Japanese. I'd rather not deal with that at all desu.
>>14872428
I don't think Taihou's recipe coincides with Shioi's and Akitsumaru shows up everywhere.
>>14872163
And Pizza Hut. It's practically a law that every big anime collaborates with them.
>>14872428
Akitsumaru drops like candy during event time.
Shioi is the worst sub and seiran is a luxury bomber to be honest. It is not there is a huge different between seiran and zuiun12/zuiun604.
I say it is best to start LSC early.
Even failures like the big7 and the cranes are considered a big win to noob.
>>14872350
Congrats. I got her on my first attempt for her
>>14872432
Easy
Use them to shill new cars
>Petrolheads are bro tier
>Tumblrinas are too scared to leave the house let alone grab a car
>patriot burgers
Irrelevant outside of the U.S. and im fairly certain some of the old patriotic folk who served in the armed forces would be very pleased to see Iowa's portrait, its a bimbo with huge jugs, they won't care who drew it.
>>14872451
I'm sure the old folks would love it,I know my grandfather would have and he was in the army during the war, but Western culture is increasingly concerned with being offended on the behalf of others who usually don't even care about the issue. I really wouldn't like to see botesluts end up on Fox news...
>>14872462
>Western culture is increasingly concerned with being offended on the behalf of others
Explain why is Trump winning then. Face it, majority are sick of political correctness.
>>14872451
Don't underestimate burger stupidity
>>14872468
Because trump voters aren't even part of western culture. They ain't even have culture
>>14872468
I really want Trump to win, but I have the feeling they're gonna rig it for Shillary... Oh well, at least he's started the fire. I hope the sleeping goyim continue to awake to the world they've been handed.
>>14872468
>Explain why is Trump winning then
They want to burn it all down then build it back up later. Too bad burning is harder than building.
>>14872462
That's a rare Haruna.
>higher HQ level = bad LSC
So, this myth is true or that fag just blessed with beginner luck?
What's your HQ level when you attempt your first LSC?
>>14872494
I got Yamato within 5 crafts at HQ 101, still sitting at level 30, still haven't actually sortied her.
>>14872486
I really want Trump to win. The world can't hate the USA enough. Obama as doing a bad job at it.
I wonder which one of you faggos keeps posting Iowa in the /pol/ threads.
>>14872508
Why would people post Iowa in /pol/?
>>14872511
Lots of weebs in the Trump and Syria General threads.
>>14872494
Do it early.
LSC guarantee carriers and battleships.
>>14872498
>still sitting at level 30, still haven't actually sortied her.
Why bother to craft her?
>>14872511
The same reason why people post about trump in /jp/ aka shitposting
>>14872511
She's a big-tittied aryan animu who is canonically plastered with the american flag anon, it's almost to be expected.
>>14872520
I wanted Shioi but got Yamato instead.
>>14872530
>Wanting actually useless mexican sub over useless hotel
Homo
>>14872534
shut yer face homo, the mexican sub is a qt
>>14872534
But she has a cute voice unlike nasal Yamato.
>>14872552
>>14872553
>stdboat
>qt
>>14872534
By that logic it doesn't matter which one he wants. At least one is cheaper to use.
>>14871562
>>14871540
48 or bust!
>>14872584
Stop being a slowpoke and marry her already.
>>14872419
I got her last night after I sworn to delete 600 GB of my porn collection if I get her next time. And also, fap to her porn before LSC.
>>14872613
I'll get right on it.
>>14872584
You are not even sending a Nakachang to each expedition in all three extra fleets to speed up the process even a bit?
When you start the game "Kaa - Um - Coo - Le" speech can be heard, is that how you spell KanColle? whose VA is it? It's so fucking cute.
>>14872702
I think that is Tatsuta, don't know who voices her.
>>14872702
It's several ships that take a turn saying it.
>>14872702
>Kaa - Um - Coo - Le
What the fuck. It's か・ん・こ・れ
>>14872702
She has a soft voice. Wouldn't surprise me if it is Yuka Iguchi. Those devs over there love Kaga anyway.
>>14872702
I wish there were sound files with all the variations of that and the following "いいこと？暁の水平線に、勝利を刻みなさい！"
>>14872731
It is. Except she's voicing Tatsuta in those lines.
>>14872468
Of course your average republican will rather vote the charismatic conman if your only viable alternatives are Rubio who, serial killer Cruz, or the aliens did it sleep pill Carson. You were screwed since the beginning with those as choices and Shillary on the other side isn't any better either.
>>14872760
Just sink her, she's just a bitch anyways. Zuikaku and Taihou is all you need.
Everytime I listen to Shoukaku Kai Ni Kou damaged line that new smugness tickles me and I feel the desire to sink her. Am I a lost cause /jp/?
>>14872768
Recreate the NTR doujin, but this time don't save her.
>>14872739
http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:84444
When will Bisko show her face? It's been 40 tries with nothing even close
>>14872789
Oh, nice find.
>>14872789
Bless you anon.
http://203.104.209.39/kcs/sound/titlecall/a/08.mp3
So sweet.
>>14872789
Nice, now to google a way to make my windows startup sound randomize these files each time it start.
If I don't have Taihou, do I need to urgently level and upgrade one of cranes as CVB?
>>14872851
Why wouldn't you have them as armored carriers in the first place?
>>14872118
>limited time only meatbowl rations
>you can find them on certain maps in world 3 and 5
>>14872851
Armored Carrier is worthless until jets are introduced.
>>14872851
Yes, even if you do get Taihou. They're superior in every aspect.
>>14872851
As far as carriers go, they are the top3.
1. Zuikaku
2. Shoucucku
3. Taihou
Zuikaku is superior just because of her more efficient 30/24 slots. Taihou lose out due to inferior stats and range.
>>14872851
No need to, chuuha plane launch is overrated and jets aren't in.
Should I make a SUPER searchlight?
>>14872895
Hell no, just keep the max one.
>>14872895
Do it, you don't need the lookout and it is well documented giga searchlight has better placebo than micro searchlight.
>>14872898
What difference does the ultra searchlight exactly have over the tiny one?
>>14872906
It's brighter.
>>14872906
It draws more aggro.
>>14872906
I didn't even know there were tests done with it. Everyone assumes it does everything better than the regular searchlight.
>>14872916
But does it affect cut-in rate or prevention rate? I don't really care about aggro that much
Is PvP exp reward dependent on average level of the other fleet or the flagship level?
Ah yes, nothing beats clearing 4-5 without retreats nor choking.
>>14872923
Levels of position 1 and 2
>>14872919
No idea about prevention rate but you can assume cut-in is the same.
Look at the data yourself.
Aggro is the only thing that is certain.
Just started playing ~2 weeks ago, got Amagi on my very last E2 run during the event, ran out of buckets and fuel in the last hour of the event. Just got her to 50 and blueprint, even if she doesn't have the best stats I wanted her Kai CG! Looks so nice
>>14872947
You don't have to lie about starting 2 weeks ago to try to sound like a pro, it's okay anon.
>>14872947
Not your personal blog.
>>14872947
>Just got her to 50 and blueprint
You fucked up.
>>14872947
She's like a quiet country girl that went to the city and turned into a massive slut. No sir, I don't like it
Her stats and planes are garbage so I hope you don't regret your decision.
How are you supposed to farm egusa's? souryuu has been taiha'd at least 10 times and she's not even level 30 yet
>>14872967
Flagship 5-4, she's just too weak to be used like a regular carrier.
>>14872967
Flag, modernisation.
>>14872967
>Musashi
Are you ok?
>>14872976
I'm more bothered by the remodeled KTKM.
>>14872967
PVP.
>>14872977
She has more torpedo than Abukuma.
>>14872976
My only battleship remaining under level 95
>>14872947
>~2 weeks
I thought registration was closed around that time.
>>14872987
Even counting Hyuuga and Ise? Okay then.
>>14872989
Signed up in Jan and got into Hashirajima but just stopped after a day or two since I picked up Muv Luv VN which took awhile for me to complete. Came back playing around 21st feb.
Wish I didn't stop though...didn't attempt E3 at all and if I continued playing instead of break could have tried for Prinz.
I get that BB have weak night attack due to lack of torp stats, but does it become apparent? Is it during hard event bosses/last dance EO only?
Normally their double attack is more than enough to kill anything I've encountered so I don't get what's the fuss is about. Also I have the same about double attack vs TCI setup on other ships, isn't DA just more reliable in almost every situation?
>>14873002
it is noticeable combined fleet only
>>14873002
Event bosses on hard tend to have so high armor only a lucky armor roll along with a critical from AP shell cut-in from FP cap will deal a decent amount of damage during day.
>>14873002
Very apparent against heavily armored bosses. Normal maps don't have that, so double attack takes out everything, except heavily armored bosses. Unless her name isn't torpedo lesbian, she needs torpedo cut-in, even more for DDs.
>>14873002
BB are often too expensive for normal maps. Furthermore their yasen accuracy is lacking so ships like CAs perform much better. Additionally you can't depend on non-Hotel BBs when it comes to killing Wo Kai.
But yes, vs most of normal enemies their yasen DA is enough.
When it comes to TCI vs DA, some people are retarded by using TCI on 30 luck ships or on DDs when enemy is just DD Hime or less.
>>14873013
It's also noticeable when your monkeys scratch enemies in 5-5.
Will there ever be a DD with no ASW gimmick?
>>14873027
Zara.
>>14873002
Cut in is 1.5x
Double attack is 1.2x
>>14873027

>>14873040
>Verniy
You got wrong sister.
For those who upgraded their DC and sonars, how many stars should I hit for the best value/performance?
>>14873040
Sorry I meant a gimmick of not having any ASW stat and not being able to attack submarines
>>14873027
Yamato.
>>14873054
1 or 4.
>>14873057
No, but frankly, the foreign DDs should have a unbelievable more ASW points than their Japanese counterparts. Not only did the IJN had really bad depth charges, they had a small number of DC throwers and tracks.

You have no one to blame but yourself and that trash ship.
>>14873136
So what, an AV or a CAV? If I wanted to be diverted north I'd use a heavy fleet.
Preparing Bob squad equipment for 2-5 monthly, keep getting cat bombed while choosing equipment.

None.
Unless you're willing to spend maruyus to make them somewhat decent.
I've tried going by the cuteness but 100 slots didn't let me.
>>14873246
Well I guess you'll only post screenshot when your shitbuki get taiha'd and you won't post anything else even if you actually succeeded?
>>14873256
Gotta catch all them (You)s right?
>>14873254
Yeah no concerns over that most are pretty awful
Is the 10cm high-angle gun used to upgrade anything?
It's retarded that its not listed in said item wiki page.
>>14873253

>>14873256

Memes aren't funny.
So people on the JP side seems to be testing another new los formula that appears to be more accurate
>>14873319
I'd love to know how they come up with all the variables.
On a cute scale of 1-Zuihou she gets a Zuihou!
>>14873325
Who's that?
Beauti~ful
>>14873325
Stop being retarded. That's Yahagi.
>>14873328
Zuihou
How did your post event LSC go?
>>14873333
No, no, no. Apart from being Zuihou.
Aaah, I recognize that hairpin. Did it get better in last two episodes?
>>14873332
It's clearly Katsuragi.
>>14873322
For 2-5 (old) and 2-5 (fall), apparently they're simply throwing results from regression analysis out, with the difference being 2-5 (fall) considered hq level difference.
For the new fall simplified formula, they divide the 2-5fall formula with a common factor and applied a bit of rounding to prettify the formula
And I haven't study their new formula yet
I hate Zuihou. She's useless outside of being just a carrier for training and now it's less after chevrons. She's reached lvl 95 and I hadn't sortied her since consistently since Summer 2014 E-2 because she's literally a Taiha magnet. The new voices she received also sound annoyingly cute which makes her sound so false.
So yeah 0-Zuiho scale is like a flat scale, 0-0. Can't find any redeeming factor on her.

The difference is that it link existing cache file instead of requiring you to put a cache file there, and you can also select furniture from the plugin's interface

Who is this beautiful girl? Is she a new ship?
>>14873394
Wouln't be more certain to be ligh ship again or not?
If it was light then heavy.
MaybeAbukuma
>>14873391
Sounds like it all happens in the client's side. So it should be safe (maybe).
>>14873435
Please no. She is the Bane of the KanColle.
At least let it cool down a bit
Is it even worth doing Bw6 in general?
I just realized I wasted around 600 bauxites only to get 100 bauxites in return. Jesus.
>>14873451
Retard.
>>14873451
You do it for the 2screws, not bauxite.
Contrast it to 5-5 for 4screws, this is cheap.
Q. How do you choke so hard, you get taiha'd by a CVL that's been snipped by Maya?
A. when it's literally in your name
>>14873501
Because Maya is a piece of shit that couldn't disable a puny CVL.
>>14873501
What map is that? 6-2?
>>14873501
You should try the 3cv3ss comp. Pretty cheap and easy
>>14873501
What's the point of running Maya-sama's K2 AACI during non-event time?
>>14873510
Oh wait fuck me that isn't 3-5 oh god didn't see the cuntbag CL. I'll go back to hiding
>>14873501
In shelling phase, amount of plane does not matter as far as ≥1
>>14873514
It's newfags who think it's impossible to clear the map without muh AACI.
>>14873435
Possible.
Abucute and Shoucucku were both implemented around summer last year.
>>14873473
Well ye fuck me trying to outjew a jew.
>>14873453
I guess I'll just stick to expedition 6 for my bauxite needs then, thanks.
>>14873514
I can't blame it on Maya, a comp with 2CLT is gonna be ass at finishing off planes
>>14873521
>bauxite needs
Step it up senpai. Bauxite is the easiest resource to stockpile because you don't use them at all.
>>14873501
>How do you choke so hard, you get taiha'd by a CVL that's been snipped by Maya?
Because of this.
Is there a hidden bonus to this gun? Does it come built in with sanshiki like what is written in the library?
>>14873558
It comes built in with panties.
>>14873558
No, it's literally a regular 35.6cm that only got a new paint job.
>>14873560
That settled it.
>>14873261
2 per attempt for 10cm+AAFD past +6, for 90mm HA 1 per attempt up to +6, then 2 per attempt, T94 AAFDs 1 per attempt past +6 and 2 for upgrading into a 10cm+AAFD.
>>14872462
I want to see a drawfag take current Haruna dressed up like her 1930s version.
>>14873082
By that logic every foreign ship should have very low torpedo stats.
>>14873632
And they do, except Prinz.
>>14873082
>>14873632
>>14873645
Libeccio has one of the the highest ASW stats among DD.
How is this wrong?
>>14873645
Prinz needs Zwei with more firepower.
