The second season killed it.
How many unremodeled subs should I keep for resource farming?
>>15044501
Two sets? I've stopped doing it and I never went full on, so this might be the minimum.
>>15044501
Yes
>>15044499
I am not talking about gundam build fighter though. Is this supposed to be a joke?
>>15044508
Yes.
>>15044508
Maybe.
>>15044501
You need 1 unremodeled fleet on permanent Exp. 2 duty and another 2-3 if you want to do Orel cruising without waiting for repairs.

>le pay to be cheated game
>>15044501
Early on you want at least 3 sets. More if you subslave intensively. As they level up and you remodel them you can do away with some of them.
15 screws this week and only 3 pages of ships to repair. IdleColle till the event would be enough to reach 100k from the softcap right?
>>15044716
Two weeks are enough to reach 100k from soft cap. Do your quests.
>>15044517
Thanks fampai.
>>15044766
I will do some quests in the meantime definitely, especially the bucket ones. I'm sitting at 47 screws, currently saving them for upgrading daihatsus to tank if they're confirmed for the new hot meme in the upcoming event. If not, I'm gonna upgrade the rest of my stuff.
>>15044808
I have a feeling that they'll be barely helpful if at all this event, but I'd get at least one ready for summer.
>>15044716
>tfw have been stuck on 4+ pages of repairs for a month now

At least EOs are almost done, fuck.

It's your fault nigga.
>>15044859
>not having 4 Akashis filled with cranes

Jewing on buckets is one of the hardest parts in this game.
I doubt the devs have the technical capacity, but a relationship system would be interesting to see.
>>15044862
But she's not going anywhere until she's 20.
Will the third K2 also happen before the event?
It's unusual to get three K2s in such a short period
>>15044929
She has opening torpedo by that point. Just take her to 5-3.
>>15045027
This is still not often enough if they really want all ships in the game to have a remodel.
>>15045034
>She has opening torpedo by that point. Just take her to 5-3.
If you're going full retard you might as well throw her to 5-5
>>15045039
No because yasen nodes take much less time and Maruyu usually survives 2 or even 3 nodes before having to retreat in 5-3.
>>15045034
That's irrelevant. She needs green T, crit and decent armor roll just to kill the weakest of all possible chompies. The reason why he failed is because he took DD escort who attacked before beaver or beaver missed and Mutsuki ginished off the enemy..
>>15045039
Moron.
5-3 is much faster.
>>15044895
The anime would've been amazing if it had focused on expanding on the characters and their relationships with other characters instead of shoehorning a shitty disjointed story arc with a self-insert protagonist. The best episodes were indeed the slice of life ones where they just interacted.
What's up with all the married Suzuyas in PVP today? Not that I'm complaining, these guys have good taste.
>>15045073
5-4.
>>15045063
Because muh Bucky: the anime gave fuel to Tanaka, so he won't give up on the game.
>>15045073
Hi.
At what point is my bauxite safe for the event?

The only way to run out of bauxite is through LSC.

No, it's something that's not meant to happen just like Darkness in To-Love-Ru. Such destructive power must be kept dealed forever.
>>15045229
Oh, I'd "deal" with it. I certainly would.

>>15045295

>>15045229

Now that a new event is incoming, what was your favorite BGM of the last event and why is this one?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ASRzJUTteI
>>15045899
Theres not much to choose from but E3's theme was definitely the best
>>15045899
http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/kancolle/images/4/44/Sound_b_bgm_59.ogg
>>15045944
This song's transition into night battle with Abukuma's night battle line fit so well together
Holy shit guys.
I just realized the meaning in quest labels.
Bd7 means daily because of the "d"
Bm4 is monthly sortie quest 4 because of the "m"
Similar with BwX
>>15045980
Really?
>>15045933
When I listen to that song all I can remember is one of my battleships being blown up by a BB Hime
>>15045980
Wow anon you're so smart.
>>15045980
Nah no way it's that simple
>>15045899
Definitely the boss BGM. Entering yasen at the right moment made my dick hard, then everybody chokes.
>>15046063
>entering yasen at the 0:50 part
Made me diamonds, even though my girls fucked up every single time.
;_;
>>15046189
>taiha while sparkling
Low level or chuuha going into the boss node?
>>15046197
Full HP but green T crit. Probably first time this year. She's lv90.
>>15046189
This is why you bring meatshields.
>>15046189
As expected of Mutsukis.
>>15046215
Never. Waste of time and resources. You have to swap them out all the time, risk losing MVP on first node and chance of C rank at boss is higher.
>>15046223
A single fodder is all you need. Hell, you don't need to take the guns off them since they hardly ever take MVP on the first node.
>>15046254
But when it happens the sortie is ruined. The chance of C rank at boss node is also higher if your DD shoots at CL and fails to kill it.
With single DD there's never a problem with morale. Mutsuki might get hit hard 1% of the time but repairing her costs basically nothing.
If DD misses a shot or torpedo, it can still get a B rank assuming it evades well. Fodder however has low evasion and is targeted more often due to not being flagship.
>>15046279
>But when it happens the sortie is ruined.
Has not happened to me once in ~100 sorties, across numerous ships. Does a fresh DD even enough power to one-shot 1-1A?
>>15046347
It happens sometimes with green tea
>>15046354
That's why you just remove their gun
>>15046279
I always bring 2 meat shields and it's incredibly rare for a meat shield to steal mvp. It's also not a waste of resources when you don't resupply and scrap them when they hit red.
>>15046378
Something tells me they'd need a good armour roll on top of getting a green t. Someone could run the math on it, but it's not worth. Not that it matters since the fodder runs at under 50% ammo half the time.
>>15046347
Most level 1s without equipment have 10 + 5 firepower. With the right RNG that's enough to sink an I-class.
Almost never happens but it can.
>>15046378
>>15046398
It's waste of resources when they steal MVP because you have to sortie again and you might accidentally resupply them (and even when you are careful, you waste time on resupplying just a single ship). It's waste of time because you have to keep swapping them even though they actually lower your chance of successful sparkling. Meatshields only reduce amount of scratch damage but repairing scratch on DDs is easy.
The one use I can find is during events when you want to sortie right after sparkling.
>Android lottery results for 250k slots (up from 100k) will be revealed on 9/4.
Still waitin'...
>>15046448
it's 5 in the morning anon.
>>15046427
The less than 1% chance of all these factors lining up seems like a fair trade for a great reduction in scratch damage.
>>15046448
I hope together with it they'll also announce the launch game, at least for the beta.
Arashi looks like Orimoto Kaori.
>>15046447
I'd like to see your combat CSV because I doubt your numbers.
>repairing scratch on DDs is easy
Not on ships that are >lv90.
>>15046215
That's a bad idea when sparkling DDs, if the decoy decides to go first it can sink the first enemy with a crit or miss and get taiha by it.
>>15046541
There's no need for csv, it's obvious when you think about it.
>Not on ships that are >lv90.
~30-50 mins, I don't see a problem. Are you 100 slots player?
>>15046551
>and get taiha by it
True, this is another problem with bringing escorts to DD sparkling. They just make it such a pain.
>>15046551
It's even worse when the DD you are sparkling misses both the shelling phase shot and the torp while the escort goes taiha and steals MVP as a result.
I think that was when I said fuck bringing escorts and realized how much of a waste of time it was.
How about letting everyone work with whatever works for then?
Solo sparkling has the problem of scratch damage or even the ocasional taiha. specially if boss node decides to give you 4 enemies.
Sparkling with escorts can mean the scort can get taiha or steal the MVP in the first node.
>>15046599
>can mean the scort can get taiha
So what?
>>15046599
Pretty sure most people just let the escort sink if they hit taiha on the first node.
>>15046602
Risk of B or lower on the 2nd node.
>>15046599
>How about letting everyone work with whatever works for then?
No, where do you think you are? Now go LSC 2 sets of Hotels for support expeditions.
>>15046599
I never had any non-Mutsuki DD get taiha while doing solo sparkling runs.
>>15046602
>>15046607
Only actual kusos would do that.
>>15046610
Every sacrifice you offer to the sea increases your luck with RNG though, so it's worth it.
>>15046599
>can mean the scort can get taiha
That's a good thing. Do you even fodder DDs?
>>15046626
Every sacrifice you offer to the sea increases the amount of limbs and overall stats of the final boss.
>>15046626
All those Romas I sank in Fall didn't help me with getting Prinz.
>>15046562
>Are you 100 slots player?
No I use all of my Mutsuki in expeditions. The devs need to put the last two ships of the class in the game.
Is this the end?
>>15046663
requiescat in pace
I like letting my shield DDs get taiha. I often don't change them until they run out of fuel and I have to change them no matter what, so a lot end up sinking after two or three runs.

>>15046747
Do you already have upgraded Bisko guns? Then upgrade the 41.
since you can only get iwamoto and iwai once, does that mean dragon farming is just to get more skilled type 52s? is all that effort really worth +1 los and +1 accuracy?
>>15046795
Read the wiki.
>>15046795
You farm DRAGONS to get their planes, specially Egusa, and use then on support expeditions.
>>15046795
You farm Souryuus for Egusa planes for support expeditions. The skilled zeros are just a bonus.
>>15046795
Type 52 is shit, Type 21 is better for having 1 extra accuracy but 1 less fighter power, which really doesn't matter if you have at least 1 Reppuu air group for 3-5 or 5-5.
Has anybody tried running a light fleet for 4-5 and going the north route?
Is it viable now with tanks?

>yfw when the reward for getting in to the android version is a tank
With presumably an event somewhat soon, I should probably hold off LSC right?
Also Akashi never fucking drops.
>>15048246
I'm going to keep doing minlsc every day
soft cap is enough
>>15048246
If you're sparkling your expeditions and are doing 1 LSC/day, you can just stockpile two weeks before. If you're doing the event on easy you don't need to stockpile at all.
>>15047746
This. Level 431 at the minimum.
431 is the minimum level where repairing subs with Akashi is faster than in docks.
>>15048258
I'm somewhat hoping to do it Hard this time around, but I'm probably still too kuso at this game given that I ditched it for a month or so again after the last event.

It's about your equipment. Not the repairs.
Good luck though, I myself barely touched the game since kasumi kai ni so I'm hoping all these new fighter bombers and tanks are not essential at all.
>>15048317
I'm probably below average or barely average in regards to equipment. I hardly have any Kai Ni's to get good equipment from, and I've had crappy luck in Equipment Crafting so I hardly do that anymore.

It's sad how I feel I have a lot of resources when I'm at 60,000+ Fuel, but all of that can go away in a failed attempt to get Yamato or any of the high ranking LSC shipgirls.Still a much better system then a gacha based system
>>15048479
Who wants Yamato when you can get the better looking Musashi instead?
>>15048479
>>15048487
Just ignore them all and go for Maruyu. Maruyus (and a single Akitsu Maru) are all that matter.
>>15048487
I'd honestly be fine with either of them, but I much prefer Yamato's voice over Musashi's.

They're also my highest level CAs. Yeah that's right.

You didn't even marry Atago. Don't be a poser.
>>15048603
Takao and Atago K2 when though
>>15048603
Best sisters, best duo, best class.
>>15048629
I'm one of those people who accepted that Takao and Atago won't get a Kai Ni. What is there to pose for?
>>15048659
My. Fucking.Nigger.
Are we perhaps getting the Battle of the Philippines Sea for this new event?
>>15048723
No.
>>15048723
>large event
>not knowing it's going to be SN II: Poo in the loo
>>15048739
We already had 2nd SN.
>>15048739
We'll certainly be needing designated shitting streets for those players who will otherwise be shitting themselves.
Went for a random LSC because why not, and hey, that's cool.
>>15048817Congratulations on your 3rd Yamato!
suisei or ryuusei? for 3-2A flag
So Android results at midnight?
>>15048856
SCAMP or 15.5 yellow
>>15048856
>>15048863
>15.5 yellow
OTO 152mm is much better, it gives a range bonus too. Plus you can upgrade it.
>>15048832
Actually my first.
for the 15 sub weekly, is it safer to do it at 1-5 or 5-1?
>>15048909
obviously wait until you can do the 1-5 quest at the same time
>>15048909
4-3.
>>15048909
Technically 1-6.
>>15048817
I tried getting Taihou but couldn't. I guess after the event unless I can quickly build up my resources.
>>15048596
Chokekai had an embarrassing run near the end of her life.
Not surprising if he thinks she should be dead last.
>>15047809
But Ushio is a survivor.
>>15048817
Enjoy your useless hotel.
