Ladies.

Also, please be considerate with those screencaps. At least delete them when they're not relevant anymore.

It won't be for another day or three, but if whoever makes the next OP could include a link to http://wikiwiki.jp/kancolle/?%C0%EF%C6%AE%A4%CB%A4%C4%A4%A4%A4%C6 (戦闘について - detailed combat explanation) that would be great.

Just got Goya-chan, I'm so happy.

Just fought a guy that named his fleet lytha fleet
Fessed up, who is it?

Do the Mutsuki-class sisters use more resources after they get remodeled?

>>11536392
Most ships do.

Anyone knows which girls has 15.5 yellow cannon as stock equipment? Tried checking the JPwiki to see if they did such detailed link but couldn't see it anywhere.

>>11536403
Most carriers, battleships, and cruisers do. Destroyers generally don't. Since there are way more of them, most ships don't. Converted battleships take more fuel, but less ammo.

艦船最大値 article - http://wikiwiki.jp/kancolle/?%B4%CF%C1%A5%BA%C7%C2%E7%C3%CD

Fuel and ammo complement is on the right. Also, fuck that encoding.

>>11536422
Thanks. Seems like the entire Mutsuki-class uses the same amount of resources. Time for some mass remodeling!

>>11536430
Same amount of resources even after remodeling, I mean.

Heavy damaged ships won't attack during night phase, right? Including enemy flagship?

>>11536459
Including enemy flagship, yes.

>>11536465
So if there are only heavy damaged ships left in my enemy's fleet, I could pursue night battle without any worry? That's neat.

Have you started grinding heavy cruisers since the recent update?

>>11536475
I still only have two, Atago and Maya around 50-60. I'm not planning on leveling more until they buff Mogami-class.

>>11536475
I'm waiting them from 40-hour expedition.

>>11536488
For that, I conveniently had members of the Mikawa fleet who just sat around flipping cards into a hat after I finished their quest.
Even post-buff I still prefer my heavy cruisers to at least have better firepower than Nagara.

>>11536475
I've always been grinding Maya and Chokai, plus occasionally Aoba. Now I'm just grinding more, I guess.

I'm 50 crafts into 250/130/200/30, the only mentionable result is still Goya.
I want Imuya. Real bad.

>>11536509
Grind for Imuya?

>>11536509
I'm halfway to that number, but no Imuya or Goya at all.

>>11536517
Feels good getting one under 10 tries.

>>11536509
That's extremely ironic considering Imuya can drop from about anywhere, and Goya only drops from certain bosses.

>>11536518
How nice.

If we count the 250/30/200/30 recipe, then I've definitely gone over 50. I wonder when the goddess will finally smile at me.

>>11536522
Would I be wrong to be looking for Imuya at 2-3's boss? I've heard 3-3-1 is also possible, but I'm stuck on 3-2 right now.

>>11536509
Funny, i did the same thing and the only mentionable result was 4 imuyas, you should swap your luck with me.
I want goya real bad but i decided that i would stop raping my resources and wait til the event, they might make her a drop or give out the new subs in there.

>>11536527
Nope, you can definitely find her there.

I noticed ships would deal lesser damage when they shell with a green gun compared to having no cannons/guns equipped. Just my misconception or is it truly so?

>>11536533
Iona from Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio cross-over?

Wasn't there some talks about there being crossovers a couple of threads ago?

>>11536539
>/jap/
Get out.

>>11536527
You don't even need to hit boss nodes for Imuya to drop. I get on average 1 Imuya like every 2-3 dayswhile doing dailies. I feed duplicate Imuya to newly remodeled DDs on a semi-regular basis.

And yet I only ever seen Goya once (from crafting), you should consider yourself lucky.

>>11536539
Went alone? Intend to head down sometime this weekend.

>>11536540
I'm expecting I-401 will come from next event. Please not Shibafu again...

>>11536543
Any flagship requiremens for obtaining Imuya? Should I just use Goya as a flagship when looking for her sister?

>>11536539
Which drink is the best?

>>11536547
Flagships has 0 effects on getting ships.

>>11536544
With a teitoku friend of mine.
Got there around 9am and there's already 100+ lining up, just saying.

>>11536549
Imuya juice. A Haruna is fine too.
Ooicchi is just yogurt with sweet green granadine.

>>11536546
Fuck you, Shibafu's art is easy on the eyes. Wouldn't I-19 need to be implemented into the game first? Her art's been around forever. Of course, I'd love to have a team of FOUR subs if that's how it'll be.

>>11536539
I'm surprised it's even open, isn't there a typhoon or something in Tokyo?

>>11536559
It was closed yesterday, which was the planned grand opening day due to that.

>>11536555
I did once read that the total number of Kancolle users right now roughly equates to the total population of Kyoto.
Still kind of hard to believe how popular it's gotten.

I type "Nagato won't drop" while playing MH4 and 85% of the time people knows what I'm talking about.

>>11536557
I forgot that I-19. Well, having more subs is a good thing.

From reading the comments section of: http://kancolle.doorblog.jp/archives/34041699.html

Seems like exploiting the steel node of 3-2 is subject to getting you banned afterall.

>>11536555
So how did that Imuya tasted like?

>>11536575
waterproof fabric and chlorine

>>11536573
Why didn't they opt to lower the amount of steel dropped instead?

>>11536573
Can you point out the specific comment? I did a quick read and most of the comments are "this should be banned" rather than "I got banned"

I typeset stuff like this. With art from pixiv and translations from danbooru.

Can anyone find these a proper home?

>>11536580
Oops, pic didn't get uploaded because of img size.

Fuck yeah, finally got Goya from today's 5-2 run, this is gonna be a good day.

#1 - Atago
#2 - Atago
#3 - Yukikaze
#4 - Goya

I expected another Atago.

Ships and location of their namesakes.

Who is your favourite Battleship and why is it Yamashiro?

>>11536591
Haruna

>>11536591
not by a longshot.

>>11536589
Why is RJ so stacked in that picture.

>>11536593
That Nagato with glasses is a lot more fabulous than I expected.
My favourite BB would be a tie between Hiei and Kirishima.

>>11536589
This game has me getting strange reactions from things I really shouldn't be reacting to.

>>11536593
Nagato seems to get paired with おっさん提督 quite a lot.

>>11536597
Her face got photoshopped onto 大破 Mutsu and Ashigara.

>>11536600
I think it's because she's his first BB. There was that one story where he blamed her drop as the reason why he couldn't assemble the Kongou sisters.

I love his short stories.

>>11536591
I like Mutsu, my first BB and she saved me a lot of trouble.

>>11536591
Cute, looks pretty, have an actual personality.

>>11536611
My first BB is Kirishima. I love her lots.

>>11536591
Haruna, she's one of the reason why I'm playing the game.

>>11536509
I have so many Imuyas and no Goya. Time to scrap some.

>>11536591
Hiei
I really like her GUTS! pose

Only reason why I'm playing the game.

To the anon saying he got so fucking many Imuyas every day from 2-3: tell me your fucking secrets. I just did 2-3 11 times and got infinite copies of Junyos and Yamashiros. FUCK

>>11536621
I just rolled her yesterday, not having tried for Suzuya since last update. They're both voiced by Bridcut, right? Kumano's ojou-sama is so over-the-top that I'm interested in what Suzuya sounds like.

Choukai looks much better here. Guess this picture is from that Kancolle magazine.

>>11536630
nevermind, found her voice clips.

>>11536629
I never noticed she had glasses.

grinding for Sendai on 2-2-A now instead of 1-2-A. the compass rustles my jimmies frequently but at least i get more than just destroyers. also pumping out ships with the sub recipe in hopes of possibly getting her (or a sub).

Sendai pls

>>11536591
Fuso. She has been my flagship for about a month now, and despite her supposed uselessness compared to other BBs, she's still getting MVPs left, right and center. She and my three other BBs are armed to the teeth thanks to her too, 11 46cms, 2 Type-33 and a Type-14 radars and an armor piercing shell is plenty enough to wipe the floor with most everything, and she even crafted enough 15.5cm dual purpose guns to arm all my CLs and CAs.

She's almost level 90 now, and she isn't leaving that secretary spot until 99. I do have Nagato-class BBs now, but after all she has done for me, it would be outright shameful to abandon her.

>>11536636
You needa stare abit harder at her picture. The orange/golden that's on her nose is the bridge of the glasses. Lenses are kinda faint.

>>11536628
The secret is keep playing.

Japan in charged of having competent server.

How are you all doing on resource management side of things?

>>11536645
Stupid player complaining about the most stupid thing?

You must be new.

>>11536636
Try looking at somewhere other than her breasts.

>>11536645
And you "in charged" with perfect English. Shit happens, refresh your game.

>>11536646
My net gross per day took a hit last couple days because one of my fleets was away on the ultra long expedition.
Completion of several weeklies has brought my oil/ammo back up to 26k, steel still sits at a measly 23k. Will probably have to run lots of short expeditions to remedy that.

>>11536649
You mean her hips

>>11536656
Don't you mean that fabulous navel?

>>11536649
>>11536656
All 4 of the Takao-class have ample amounts of both.

>>11536646
Slowly building up my build allowance after the large ship building was announced. Will break 100 by tomorrow, 150 by next update.

since when did 10/300/250/10 craft mini subs
just had 3 tries and got in this order
penguin>7.7 shitcannon>minisub

>>11536588
Hmm, but how does 1 F5 every 5 min cause stress on the server? Is it that detectable?

>>11536683
depends.
If the players didn't set the cache properly, it would hammer the server a lot.
else, it shouldn't be detectable since the game itself regularly create new connection (even for equipping guns, etc.)

>>11536683
Last I checked it was 1.5mb down every time you refreshed if you have the files needed cached

>>11536689
>If the players didn't set the cache properly, it would hammer the server a lot.
Can you be more elaborate about this?

http://www.huffingtonpost.jp/2013/09/27/kankore-business_n_4001827.html?utm_hp_ref=tw

>>11536691
i think he means if you don't have enough cache space and files have to reload every time you look at them, it will shit on their server. like when you look at your ships and it takes ~5 seconds for their face to load. if that happens every time you F5, you are a bad person and should clear your cache before refreshing.

>>11536698
(but if that is not happening, don't clear your cache between F5s because then they'll have to be re-cached)

>>11536698
>>11536700
Thanks clearing that up and making me change my horrible ways of putting stress on the server.

>>11536690
>>11536689
If you have everything cached and refresh like that, 1.5mb every ~10 min or so wouldn't be cause for that much stress really? I would think it's only bannable if you are doing it the whole day and every 5 min or something. The act of refreshing once at the steel node isn't bannable as far as I can see.

>>11536697
The only thing that can save Kankore from bombing hard is to have a gacha.
I'm right or am I right?

>>11536697
I wonder why Kadokawa would say that so bluntly.

>>11536724
They're talking to stockholders and stuff. I guess he doesn't want the stock to bubble up too much.

More stuff from the book. I guess this is all the voice actors.

I've seen the answer to this in these threads before but I kind of forgot it... does one remodel Goya or not?

What is RNG goddess?

>>11536748
Only if you've cleared all your submarine missions and/or have another Goya.

>>11536755
Ah yeah, I remember now, it was about the sub expeditions. Although I think I-19 is on the horizon? So it might not be too bad.

>>11536753
google RNG
replace the "G" with goddess, or add goddess at the end. it makes it sound more weeb.

you could even go with RNG-hime-sama if you want.

>>11536742
It got abysmal Amazon reviews. Anyone stalking the Futaba threads and can tell us what they think?

>>11536753
RNG = Random Number Generator

In some games (e.g. roguelikes) people personify the RNG as a god or goddess who is either kind or wrathful towards the player.

>>11536756
Just keep her unremodeled for now.

>>11536763
I am, but I can't into complicated moon.

>>11536763

http://may.2chan.net/b/res/223075006.htm

Also, apparently Kaga is a BB in the book.

>>11536763
There are apparently errors in a few places.

http://kancolle.doorblog.jp/archives/34023585.html

>>11536775
Souryuu too.

>>11536763
It has too many typo, error, wrong photo, etc.
Still no announcement, but I assume they'll publish another revision and may possibly refund.

>>11536784
>>11536775
That's because Kaga's remodel 2 will be coming to change her into a BB!

>>11536573
Thank you for this anon, really wanted information on that but could not find anything about it.

>>11536772

Huh, I never knew 2nd remodels count as a new ship. Does this work for Isuzu/Yuudachi as well?

>>11536798
It's not confirmed at all. Also it doesn't make sense because of the varying sorts of settings people have when they reload their browsers (having all the game data cached on their own systems vs. reloading all the time)

>>11536763
>>11536786
That's good, because I just reserved a copy, hopefully it'll be a revised edition.

>>11536809
I did it a few times yesterday after hearing about it but i had all the data cached on my browser so everything loaded quickly.
Stuff like people getting banned or the possibility of getting banned for it sounds too scary for me so im definitely not going to try it again.

>>11536808
It doesn't work with Isuzu. Can't say with Yuudachi. I'm guessing it's a unintentional.

>>11536808
I tried with Isuzu but wont work. How did you do that?

>>11536808
Good, i have many Chitoses with me and was planning to feed the extras to my BBs until i saw your post.

>>11536808
I just tried putting a remodeled Imuya and a normal imuya on my team and nothing, its probably a bug with those two.

>>11536828
Verniy probably got listed as a new ship as opposed just being Hibiki Kai 2.

>>11536835
they probably check by name, and the name changed in this case.

Nice.
http://blog.mediafactory.co.jp/comicalive/?p=23487

>>11536775
>>11536784
I have that book and read the Japanese sites/reviews too
Basically they all have been labeled as BB in the Damaged Pose section and the real ship pictures of Sazanami, Kasumi, etc. are apparently not theirs.

I'm really amazed at how those hardcore military otaku distinguish ships from one another, aside from the name painted of course.

>>11536822
All I'm seeing are random anons calling out for bans or cautioning that it could be a violation of the ToS since it supposedly puts a strain on the server.

>>11536852
Because those are real otaku from glorious nippon, they have a eye for those things.

>>11536852
Spend enough time being a nerd about any specific subject and you can do the same too. Any non-Kancolle player will look at Shibafu's characters and say they all look the same, while you could probably match at least half of them with their names.

So you're not supposed to waste fodder on modernization until you've remodeled your ship all the way, right? When they come out with a new remodel for a ship, do you have to completely modernize it over again? That mechanic seems like a huge pain unless I'm misunderstanding.

>>11536864
Fodders execpt AA are easy to come by. Modernizing so that your grind is more efficient is always recommended.

>>11536864
Generally yes, you will want to use your fodder on only your remodeled ships, but some ships take much longer to reach their remodel levels, either because it's a high level, or because they are somewhat weak, and can't score MVPs that often to get as much XP as possible. In these cases you might want to just use up a bunch of fodder anyways.

In any case, at some point you will probably have more fodder than you know what to do with. Just use some. More ships will come into your possession very quickly.

>>11536881
Teaset, anything else is for plebs.

>>11536873
>>11536879
Ok, that makes sense. Thanks.

I just got the cash shop furniture item from the subs quest. I can't decide, this is probably the hardest decision I'll ever make in this game. What did you guys get?

>>11536881
It's getting colder. Join the kotatsu club.

>>11536882
Keep your /v/ slang where it belongs, scum.

Shit, was distracted and ended up clicking the night battle button accidentally for the first time.

>>11536904
Right, that's how it went. I still don't have my submarines so I don't have any furniture faeries.

>>11536881
I pieced together a nice-looking admiral's office set early in the game (cheap to assemble too), so I'm about as torn as you are. On one hand, I really like how my office looks. On the other hand, >>11536887 looks comfy as fuck.

>>11536887
It looks nice, but I'm afraid it might clash too much with the rest of my room. I wish there was a full room preview instead of just that tiny window.

>>11536927
The kcplayer in the OP seems to have a room simulator but it won't load for me.

>>11536925
Can you get kumano from drops? I find her incredibly cute and her kai version is even better.

>>11536927
>I wish there was a full room preview instead of just that tiny window.
it exist. just click on the right bottom icon on the furniture page.

>>11536937
If it's the same as Suzuya, 5-3 boss drop only.

>>11536925
That looks really nice. I may copy it for myself.

>>11536941
That's only for furniture you've purchased already.

How many ship daughterus have you sunk?

>>11536985
None so far, although I've had Akagi at least in the red.

>>11536985
None, of course.
I'm not a irresponsible teitoku.

>>11536985
None, that is why Im stuck at 2-4, everytime one daughteru get dmg, I quit to thread her injuries

>>11536989
T-level 58 here. I am still stuck at 2-4 too.

>>11536990
Unless you keep switching your ships not letting them level or refusing to use BBs i don't see how you aren't out of 2-4 yet.

>>11536991
Well, My Imuya has made it to the end fairly reliably. Now Lvl65, I think she just needs turbine to nail this one.

>>11536990
I feel for you. Though every time I pray really hard to the RNG I get really lucky. Prayed to get Shimakaze, got her while grinding 2-4-1. Prayed to pass 2-4, destroyed it easily. Prayed to get 4th fleet, first drop on 3-2 was Kirishima. Prayed for Zuikaku, got her and Zuiho thrown in too.

Today I prayed for a sub and got Goya. Now I can easily farm 3-2 for steel and XP without any repair downtimes.

>>11536985
I let Tatsuta sink at level 7 a while back for no particular reason. She's my second favorite CL though, so I've leveled her back up higher than that since then.

>>11536994
>praying
This works, I've actually also gotten Goya today.

>>11536997
>>11536994
I am going to pray too. Goya is high on priority, and so would 46cm/boiler/turbine.

>>11536997
>>11536994
Every time i see posts like these i go do a sub recipe and every single time its a light or heavy cruiser i dont want.

Please pray for me anon and give me a hand

>>11537003
They used up all the available luck so there's none left for you.

>>11537003
It's just confirmation bias. I prayed for three days straight using more than 40 development materials to get Goya.

>>11536985
Memory's fuzzy but I remember sinking Shohou and Atago. Regretted it.

All because of pressing the wrong button - 進撃 instead of 撤退 at 2-4

>>11536994
Might as well join in on the fun. I've gotten several imuyas but no goya yet.

brb crafting infinite nakachan works

>>11537008
You need to level up your praying, I prayed yesterday and got her today on third try.

One thing that I find nerve wrecking about sub is that you would lose the round with just a glancing blow. I wish that sub can get to 100 in torpedo rating, but that''s just not the case...

>>11537009
>進撃 instead of 撤退 at 2-4
How do you even do that in 2-4? I do the opposite of that everywhere, specially in 2-4.

>>11537003
>>11537008
Ended up giving the recipe a try while saying "Maybe it'll work this time" and got another one hour timer, i can almost hear the RNG laughing at me.

Going to wait for daily reset to give crafting another go and then try to save up all my steel.

>>11537029
Question. Do you use your main fleet for 2-3 run or just sending the sub in solo?

Must be nice getting what you want. Been doing 2-3 the whole day, no Makigumo, no Goya. Only tons of useless CA and a couple of Imuya.

That's about 60 runs and 30 boss fights wasted.

>>11537019
It actually kind of annoys me that because of KTKM/OOI's monstrous 160 torpedo stat, the ninety that submarines, destroyers, and Chitose/Chiyoda Kou have very often fail to do anything.

>>11537029
I never saw a single sub in 2-3 (or anywhere else) to begin with, I got both from crafting though; I've been doing nothing but 2-3 since yesterday because of Makigumo, it's been a waste of time but at least 2-3 is fuel/ammo friendly...

>>11537031
I sortied my CA+CVL fleet and did solo subs.

Also, I meant crafting Goya. All these failings have gotten to my head. I need a break.

How does the 2-3 sub run work? Aren't those CLs and DDs going to shit on me? Wondering because I just crafted Imuya.

>>11537039
Put a mini sub on her until 10>Switch out for a turbine>Pray to rng gods? Repair time and costs are low so you aren't losing much.

>>11537039
Modernize for torp stat as well as what little armor they can get, Magikarp them to level 10 for innate pre-emptive attack, and stick turbines on them. Boom, instant farming machines.

Goddammit. Why did you get sent to get a bucket at 2-4, Imuya.... You were basically unscathed! Gah!

(at least it's really cheap to deploy her)

>>11537056
T-lvl 58 with Imuya here again. Good thing about her is that she is terrifically efficient. with all 4 fleets unlocked, you can really save using her.

(it ruins the win ratio totally though)

>>11537060
If it drops too much you won't be able to do the event.

>>11537060
I had fun playing around with imuya but it really ruins your win/lose ratio and other ships get left behind so i stopped doing that.

Really want to give the duo sub thing a try when i get a second sub though, it sounds like fun.

>>11537061
You can always spam 1-1 for stats

>>11537061
What is the requirement?

>>11537063
Last time it was 75%. Don't know what it will be this time. (Maybe there won't be one?)

I hope the requirement is higher this time so Imuya slavers won't get to participate.

>>11537077
Someone doesn't have a sub.

>>11537077
You are just jelly since you don't get to experience the joy of 6 fuel 10 ammo on a boss run.

>>11537077
I use her because i love her, I only got her like a week ago and she's already my highest leveled ship and favorite girl, even higher than my carriers and BBs that i have been using from the start.

>>11537086
I know what you mean. I took her from 1- 66 in two days.

>>11537090
>1-66
Damn, what did you use to get that high? Mine is only 55

>>11537092
Keep her at the 2-3 pond... I still haven't crafted a boiler for that matter. My mind is screaming at me for one for the last 2 days.

>>11537080
>>11537081
I got her in the Augusts event, and have since crafted additional 4 Imuyan. You sick slave drivers.

>>11537101
It's wartime. We must all sacrifice for the greater good. And in this case "we" means Imuya, and "greater good" means a huge pile of resources for me to play with.

>>11537104
I think there will be some of us that will drive several Imuya/Goya on rotation. Having a few of them outfitted with turbines can mean self-sustaining leveling at 3-2-1 for one.

>>11537104
You monster, i'd never sacrifice my favorite girls.
The only job i give my imuyas is rotate them if one gets damaged while leveling my fleet in 3-2.

>>11537116
How is that any better? She's a meat shield, a bloody meat shield! Run deep and wreak havoc behind enemy line is what a sub's meant to do!

>>11537100
Whats your Win/lose ratio after all that 2-3 leveling?

>>11537122
99%.

Not that anon, but what makes you think they won't lie about it.

>>11537122
I am now at 90%... Was around 96%.

>>11537132
Cause a drop like >>11537131
sounds pretty spot on..

the combat mechanics page seems off to me. with my upgraded CL and DD i was trying different combinations of 3 weapons.
main/main/main > shelling
main/main/torp > shelling (should be combo?)
main/torp/torp > shelling (should be torpedo?)
main/torp/AA > combo

am i doing something wrong, or do I have to use an AA gun in the third slot to do the most damage?

Kumano's idle lines sound like erotic moaning when you have the volume down low. I'm just happily reading some stuff when suddenly 喘ぎ声.

>>11537183
You should reread it.

Combos don't always activate, in which case you'll attack with the top-most weapon slot. Combos can do shell damage or torpedo damage or both. Damage in any given combo will depend on the respective stats.

>>11537230
Ah, I only glanced at the single attack row before so I missed that. Thanks.

>>11537230
To be precise combos activate when you target a destroyer, and don't when you target the boss.

So, how's the equipment crafting of the day going for you guys? I've been able to make two of the armor piercing ammo from about 2000 steel and ammo and 1000 oil.

Is KTKM suppose to be rare? I have 5 of her now and am running out of space.

>>11537273
Not at all, you wouldn't need so many anyway

>>11537239
First I've heard of it. I've seen combos land on ships other than destroyers before, some of them flagships.

>>11537273
KTKM lvl50 farm go

>>11537280
KTKM level 50 farm would actually be a lot less painful than similarly-leveled farms for other ships since she's actually capable of getting MVPs regularly.

It'll still be a horrible slog though. Maybe acceptable for a KTKM fan on the level of that Haruna guy.

Do you need to have a credit card to hate money?

I'm running out of ship slots and I just can't bring myself to scrap/consume non-duplicates.

>>11537259
Six attempts at 100/300/250/10, and four more on 10/10/251/250. 2 46cms, a Type-14 air radar and an armor-piercing shell.

Also, Hiryu from 2-3. I was shooting for the new destroyers, but I can't say I'm disappointed.

>>11537303
I don't play Kancolle, but if you live in the US I know walmart or some other chain stores sell prepaid Visa cards that worked on some other games i've played.

Just put like 20 bucks or however much you're wanting to spend on it and you'll never have to look at the card again.

>>11537259

I just can't trust the recipes on Wiki. I'd like to get a turbine for Goya, maybe some 41cm guns for Yamashiro and Fuso (they need them after remodel to keep the firepower up) but I'd like to have a more concrete info before I start sinking steel and fuel into this stuff.

>>11537315
Eh, I just go 100/250/250/10. I don't think adding more ammo will do much, but then again there's always an excess of ammo considering how every good expedition gives ammo.

Oh shit, is this what I think it is?

>>11537326
Congrats on Mutsu anon

>>11537326
Naka-chan

can someone tell me whats happening. I've been using the API link fine for weeks, and when i tried today, the ship loading page is taking forever. Would appreciate it if someone could explain why icant play.

>>11537326

Instabuild it now. I want to know if Nagato is a myth wth my own eyes.

>>11537337
Come back after fixing your shift-key.

>>11537340
It's working fine retard.

>>11537337
Having the same problem.

>>11537334
Oh shit.

the 50+ times 250/130/200/30 guy who wants Imuya here.
I just got a first under-1-hour-recipe for the first time since 21 crafts. It was my fifth yukikaze.
fuck.

>>11537354
>Wanted a Turbine
>Got 46cm
>feels odd

100/300/250/100 does work, I guess.

>>11537371
> proper use of the quoting function (don't use it for bullet points: greentexting). (>>11536333)
Anywho, congrats admiral. Enjoy flinging those massive Type 91 shells at those poor ex-kanmusu.

>>11537371
Nice. I just got a turbine personally. On the other hand I'm half tempted to keep going and trying fr another 46cm, on the other hand I want planes. Actually when going for planes, should I just add steel so I get the bonus chance of radars?

>>11537326
>>11537362
Is it the 400/600/600/30 one?

>>11537392
Well, I got a Suisei from the 4 daily tries actually. I don't understand why I'd get a plane out of it when my secretary's Kirishima...

>>11537326
>>11537362
>>11537393
Yeah, that's what I did. I hope that you get one soon anon, good luck. What the hell do I do now

>>11537411
Celebrate.

>>11537407
Because low-tier planes can be made by just about any class.

So how exactly do you guys keep your steel up?
Im at admiral level 40 and i can keep my fuel, bauxite and ammo up at all times but i still have no idea on how to stock up on steel.
Stuck using daily quests and the daily regen to get it up but there has to be a better way.

>>11537429
I farm 1-1 A with a destroyer and scrap all the DDs I get.

>>11537429
1-1 grind, break apart DDs. That's one way to do it.

>>11537429
Expeditions. See pastebin or wiki.

>>11537436
Got my first sub when I didn't mean to craft one. RNG goddess is sneaky.

>>11537411
Thanks anon, you gave me the motivation to try 400/600/600/30 2 times more beyond the daily quests and finally got my own Nagato after having crafted about a dozen Mutsu.
Now let's power-lvl her for upcoming event.

>>11537439
I feel somewhat trolled by RNG, but it's really hard to complain about getting the 46cm and not the boiler/turbine.

>>11537443
I definitely feel trolled by the RNG and find it easy to complain, must have done the sub recipe around 40 times now and all i get is 1 hour timers.
Not even a 1:30 one and a chance for one of the new mogami sisters, its always one hour and a boring light/heavy cruisers that i already have.

>>11537450
I do 400/600/600/30 and get cruisers. It was heartbreaking and I end up not crafting rares.

>>11537455
I did 400/800/800/50 yesterday because it apparently has a good chance of getting you a battleship and wanted a break from the sub recipe.
Was a light cruiser

All this Nagato talk made me try it again and I got Kumano, nice haven't had her.

>>11537450
I got 2 beavers when I already had a beaver... haven't any luck with sub craft yet, and I've gone through close to 30 now I think.

>>11537463
RNG goddess just loves to make everything elusive.

650/750/150/30 gave me mutsu yesterday

It's Nagato day!

After trying the rare lighter ship recipe 3 times and getting no one interesting, I decided to give the battleship recipe (40/3/60/3) a go for as I still have many non-duplicate kanmusu to get from the recipe including the aviation cruisers. 5 hour timer and my very own Nagato as well.

>>11537476
> a go for as
a go, as*

>>11537476
Every time you people talk about time based crafting pools I end up pouring thousands of resources down the drain for handfuls of one hour countdowns. I'm not falling for your tricks anymore.

>>11537491
Well, I budget for the crafts in advance. Never again will I just binge craft for no apparent reason.

>「GanjaMAN」さんと練習で敗北しました。
This is one of you, isn't it.

>>11537476
Oh, I should mention that my HQ level is 33, so I don't think I'm certifiable for "beginner's luck" category now.

>>11537491
ganbatte

Hi /jp/, fairly new admiral here. I didn't see anything about this in the guides or wiki articles, but do the more experienced admirals think it's worthwhile to upgrade Fusou and Yamashiro into aircraft battleships? I think they can only equip scouting planes and it isn't as if I don't have less powerful ships that can send those out.

>>11537491
I just did the same, everyone keeps talking about nagato so i decided to give it a shot.
Must be like the 5th 1 hour craft today, i think its time for me to say fuck this and go play something else for today.
Maybe (Hopefully) i'll have better luck tommorrow.

It did work for me once though, everyone was getting imuya and i decided to try the sub recipe because why not.
Ended up getting a imuya like everyone else and was really surprised that it actually worked.

>>11537503
If this info really isn't available on any of the resources, than it should be added already. I don't read the English resources, so I wouldn't know if they are there or not.

Anyways, it's up to you to decide on whether you think the boost in everything but firepower is worth it or not.

>>11537503
Look harder.

>>11537463
I just gave up on crafting battleships for the time being. I already have them all except for Nagato, and that one I know is an impossibility where not only do I have to go through all the heavy cruisers and Naka, but then I have to go through Fusou's and Kongou's, and finally through Mutsu. It just feels impossible. Worse than trying to do a carrier, where I've only failed.

>>11537503
This question gets asked at least once per thread and there are FAQs in at least two wikis with the answer. Ignore the planes, use guns.

>>11537512
I keep planes on Fusou because I think it's really stupid for her to have a flight deck and no planes.

>>11537528
They don't do anything though.

>>11537531
They scout, bomb, and improve aim.

Is there a guide for the best equips for ships?

>>11537538
The ones with the higher numbers are better.

>>11537528
Well, there are a few situations where that would be handy. When you don't have a saiun, want to fill carriers with offensive planes, can't/don't bring a carrier for whatever reason.

>>11537528
Don't worry, Ise and Hyuga never carried planes into combat.

>>11537550
Only because the Japanese ran out of planes to put on them.

>>11537440
I'm glad to hear that anon! Let's!

Got a Goya yesterday, and a Mutsu and 46cm gun today. Gonna try for the -kaku carriers later while I'm in the RNG's favor.

It's my one week anniversary since starting.

I wish Ise and Hyuuga could use Suisei as they were designed for. Seiran seems like nothing but a pipe dream in server 3.

>>11537564
My luck isn't so great, but then again, I have been stockpiling madly.
Current status: 22k/28k/17k/19k, day 17, T level 58

>>11537567
How high do you have to rank on the ladder to get the plane?

Sometimes I put Zuiun on Mogami's last slot, and she can sink a DD in bombing phase. Not completely useless, just almost useless.

Finally. Great victory. After doing the carrier recipe over 20 times and never getting one, I finally get a carrier and it's Zuikaku.

>>11537582
May you find happiness teitoku.

>>11537582
congrats.

Question. Is it pointless to stockpile if you simply won't get to the point of having a Lvl70+ fleet good enough for Musashi? Or would the first part of the event be hard enough that a stockpile of buckets would be useful?

My god. After about 40 BB recipes since Suzuya was added, I finally have a second aviation cruiser (Kumano). As others have mentioned, her voice is amazing. Real breathy and erotic, plus ojou-sama speech.

>>11537595
You should always go for events. The game gets repetitive and boring without them. You'll also get event exclusive kanmusu, so there's nothing to lose by going for E1~E3.

>>11537572
It depends on the server.

>>11537598
Top 100 or within top 500?

>>11537603
Check the Japanese wiki. I read the info there before, and I can't remember now, but I think the range was different on each server. All I know is that I'm not going to be ranking high enough with my course load.

>>11537586
>>11537590
I can finally force Kaga and Zuikaku to be in the same fleet. It's a dream come true.

>>11537612
I swear my Kaga starts missing more whenever Zuikaku is on the fleet with her.

>>11537618
Probably suppressing her urge to try and sink Zuikaku. That or she's already aiming at Zuikaku and Zuikaku just gets lucky.

Hiei drop, 2-3 boss S rank. Finally I can open the fourth fleet.

>>11537612
It's fun to imagine Kaga giving Zuikaku shit the whole time. They have the lines for it. Although one of them doesn't quite work, from a historical basis.

>>11537612
One of the best guilty pleasures.

How do I stop getting CAs and CLs at all? I'm looking at you, Haguro. This was done over days, and I have dozens of previously unrecorded crafting.

>>11537639
Pray to the RNG goddess

>>11537639
You can't. It's an unfortunate fact of life, but Naka will always be there to take the stage. The most you can try to do is to save up a whole bunch of mats, test your luck of the day by crafting equipment, if you get something good in -5 crafts, and then go for it I guess?

>>11537647
>>11537650
I prayed everyday, especially every time I'm going to craft.

I've been trying to save resources, but each time I read someone speaking of their subs daughter, I just went ahead and try to craft one or two. I'm a bad gambler, it seems.

>>11537655

You can always have a shit miserable day and if the RNG Goddess hears of your misfortunes, will give you a sub in her way of saying >Cheer up!

Honestly, y'all should stop reporting in every time something good doesn't happen. That's really not news. "Dear diary, today I still don't have a Nagato, just like all the other days" is really just not interesting.

Tell us when you finally do get one so we can bake you a cake or something.

>>11537670
Casual use of the word "finally" should be banned

>>11537582
Pretty much the same thing as me. Except replace that Zuikaku with 2 Akagis after the 20th time.

What the shit is this, it appeared with ominous music. I thought I sank my first shipdaughter for a second there.

>>11537681
Is there something wrong with the way I have used it?

How likely/possible is to go from a fleet of level 15-20s to a level acceptable for the upcoming event in time?

>>11537685
Flagship got too damaged, so you were automatically ejected to prevent her from sinking.

>>11537685
I thought it was my emergency repair kit triggering when that popped up for me, but i still have it. no idea what it actually was.

>>11537694
That's a relief, thanks anon.

>>11537685
>>11537695
It says "flagship high damage" right there at the top at least try and make an effort to look shit up yourself before asking questions.

>>11537702
what are you talking about all i see are weird lines

>>11537696
The staffs mentioned beginner players could also join the event. I guess with that level, first half of event map is doable.

>>11537702
"what does this weeb shit say" got unrelated results from google. sorry.

>>11537705
>>11537707
If you're not that one guy who's dedicated his life to shitting up these threads, please stop acting like a retard.

If you are that one guy I guess nothing I say to you will change your mind so carry on or something.

>>11537507
>>11537508
>>11537509
I guess I missed it the first time somehow; thanks and sorry, Admirals. I've got most of the battleships that aren't Nagato/Haruna/Yamato so I can experiment a little while I'm still low-level. (I was worried about converting them to something less effective, but I got two Yamashiros and a Fusou when I did my dailies today...)

So the digital version along with the corrections would be available tomorrow.
I wonder if they accept foreign credit cards...

And by that extension, I wish they'd release a digital version of the comic anthology as well. I'm tired of waiting on scans.

More scrolls when?

>>11537767
Book Walker right? Good news. That saves me the shipping costs so I can get a kotatsu for my girls.
A forum post said that they accepted non-Jp cards.

>>11536333
Who is this supposed to be? Looks like Murakumo but way different at the same time.


Also blogging time!

Crafted Nagato on the first crafting attempt today.

My list of rares now consists of:

Nagato
Mutsu
Shimakaze
Yukikaze
Zuikaku
Kinugasa
I-58
I-168

>>11537874
It's probably Nagato

>>11537891
I was talking about the OP.

>>11537910
It's probably Nagato.

>>11537910
iqdb says it's Murakumo.

>>11537922

But it looks nothing like Mokou.

Any tips on daily grinding a fleet of BBs and a CV without going broke on fuel? Expeditions and daily quests aren't really enough.

>>11537952
Yeah, here's a tip, don't grind a fleet of BBs and a CV.

>>11537967
Hmm, that might work. Thanks for the advice.

How do I make "潜水艦隊を編成せよ！- Have 2 submarines in your main fleet." quest appear? I got both og the subs and the quest isn't showing up.

>>11538007
Do the other fleet-setup quests.

>>11538007
Also, the Takao-class sortie quest isn't appearing either even after completing the fleet composition quest.

>>11538010
But the wiki says there's no requirement for the quest.

Do fleet compositions also affect which route I could take in 2-4? Like if having a DD in your fleet automatically brings you to the NW route?

I've been getting good results with 10-30-10-101

just wanted to make some planes because i have a shitload more baux than anything else.

>>11537612
What's the story behind the two?

>>11538098
CarDiv 5 took minor losses in the Battle of the Coral Sea and was therefore undergoing replenishment during the Battle of Midway. In that battle, Akagi, Kaga, Soryuu, and Hiryuu were all sunk. Kaga's still not over it.

>>11538135
She'll warm up eventually.

>>11537937
Thanks for the info.

>>11538141
No, that's not right. Post the one where Zuiho watches Kaga totally dominate the cranes.

>>11538157
No.

another day with no Sendai, plenty of 艦隊のアイドル though. at least now i have Imuya to farm 2-2 more efficiently.

I've looked on the wiki and the previous thread but couldn't find anything. I'm trying to grind my 4 BB's and 2 CV's to remodels for 2-4. is it more supply efficient solo grind 1-1-1 a few hundred times or should I try pairing one or two and doing something like 2-1-1 or 2-1-1?

>>11538337
Just keep fighting 2-4-A with the full fleet.

>>11538337
Just do 2-4-1 or 2-3/2-2 for the resources/drops

>>11538345
>>11538345
My biggest issue fighting 2-4-1 is that if one of my BB's get crit or go into the red it costs over 200 steel to repair it and my 1-3 expedition cant support that much steel.

>>11538360
blue planes and subs = Perfect S or sub repair time

Hey guys, will this fleet be good enough for 2-4? My tietoku level is only like 10 so I don't know.

>>11538451
Is this a joke?
No, you'll probably get shit on.

>>11538404
I dont have any subs yet and I only have 1CV and the CV you get from the quest, so my planes options are the planes it came with by default. My account level is far below 20 so I cant really make any planes either.

>>11538455
But muh battleships

>>11538455

Joke on you.
The 4worst ugliest BBs in the game raping 2-4 at lvl1

>>11538461
Not shown: the 30 times he had to restart and use new ships

>>11538477
I'm sure you can run 2-4 yourself 30 times in less time than it takes to pick up 120 battleships.

>>11538477
Now ponder this. Which is easier?
Getting new 6 LVL1 BB/CV for 30times or resetting 30times to beat it?

When's the next registration lottery? My stepdad asked me about it.

>>11538461
Why is Fusou and Yamashiro considered ugly again?

>>11538498
Because some people have awful taste.

>>11538498
There's this one guy who says they look like they're wearing huge shoulder pads and that's ugly. And the Kongou-class wears their vestment (hakama?) more elegantly than the Fusou-class.

>>11538510
I swear it's always the same guy.

>>11538513
And why people fap over Space Marines again?

Maybe i should just stop playing for a week and let the resources build up. There's no way i can afford the steel to get all these ships to 30.

>>11538522
I've been contemplating on doing the same. Expeditions aren't enough sometimes.

>>11538522
No. You're obviously running a faulty fleet composition for leveling and the resources aren't going to be enough after a week anyways because you're not doing dailies.

>>11538522
I feel like I need a few days off, myself. I use up fuel so quick, and I'm not even going full BB/CV.

>>11538528
Then what would be an "ideal" fleet composition for leveling? I'm doing every daily that I'm capable of doing.

>>11538536
2 subs, 1 torpedo cruiser, 2 CVLs + whatever ship you want to level.

>>11538536
Something that doesn't consist of 4BB+2AV/5BB+1AV.

Submarines, torpedo cruisers and light carriers are very cost effective when leveling bigger ships for main fleet composition.

>>11538497
>My stepdad asked me about it
I was about to tell you, too.

>>11538553
Why would you anyway?
They don't try to hide it or anything, just check the twitter.

>>11538536
In terms of fuel and ammo, it doesn't matter that much whether you send BB CV and escorts, or the whole capital fleet. Lighter fleets will help you save on steel, though, because it's ten times cheaper to repair a destroyer than a battleship.

>>11538543
>Something that doesn't consist of 4BB+2AV/5BB+1AV.
How about 6BB

>>11538541
>>11538543
I don't have any subs let alone 2, nor the mats to spare to get one. None of my ships are anywhere near remodeling level so i dont have any torpedo cruisers. So should I just have the 1 one BB/CV im leveling and the rest CVL/light carriers?

So far, out of 8x 100/300/250/100, I've gotten 2x 46cm, but no boiler.

I guess today is some kind of BB day for anon. People getting Nagato and all.

>>11538565
Also take in mind that you don't have to go to nodes that will get you damaged heavily. You can always just restart the game and avoid it.

>>11538571
I tried three 46 recipes and got jackshit, although I did manage to craft two battleships earlier (One was a Fusou I already have and the other was Kirishima, now I've got 3/4 Kongo sisters)
I didn't get any Nagatos, but today was definitely not a bad BB day.

>>11538574
Also take in mind doing that will get you banned.

Also keep in mind that 3-2 will require a fleet of DDs, as well as emphasis on CA/CL afterwards. Keep your map clearing and leveling fleet separate. Rotate your resource costly BB/CV with cheaper ships.

Remember to keep doing expeditions and dailies and don't go overboard with crafting at that level.

So how do I beat the lone sub in pvp? No matter how I look at it, I can't do enough damage to kill it, but just leaving it there seems like a waste of exp.

>>11538628
Call in the specialist.

>>11538628
1BB, 1CVL with red/blue and saiun, 4 ASW capable ships.
If your fleet level is low, you need depth charge and sonar.

>>11538615
So it's a definite you'll get banned for doing it now? Intention reset after hitting steel node..

>>11538628
If it's under level thirty, you have a good shot of killing it with anti-sub specialists (ships and equipment both).

If he's a sub slaver and it's level eighty or something retarded like that you might as well not bother.

>>11538633
What exactly is that 1 BB suppose to do? Stand there and look scary?

>>11538637
Not that anon but how come there's such a huge difference?

>>11538634
If you do it continuously, yes.
Restarting every once in a while is probably still safe.

>>11538634
Who knows. That letter was way back in June. I've been doing 3-2 this way for a month now with no repercussions.

>>11538639
Have you ever noticed a difference in the fights where you bring a battleship and the fights where you don't?

>>11538639
To make second loop.
If you leveled high enough you can remove BB.

>>11538640
Against a lone submarine? Yes, I notice it costs less to fuel my fleet afterwards.

>>11538641
The thing is that anybody doing sub slaving is going to have a sub which outlevels the rest of the fleet by a factor of two. If the enemy's sub level is too high, it's evasion will be up, and you won't get any crits.

>>11538632
This, at similar level she can take 8,9 HP per hit.
>>11538639
BB gives a second round of attacks.
>>11538643
Personally I reset when I end up on wrong nodes, but I don't reset again for at least 15/20 minutes.

>>11538645
You don't get a second round of combat if neither team has a battleship. I'm amazed you never noticed this.

>>11538646
Ah, thanks for the explanation. I do have a huge level sub at 82 but I always put a single Ikazuchi up when I go afk.

I wish she would spoil me.

>>11538637
Yeah a lvl 70 Goya doesn't look like an easy kill at all.

Question. When you have two main guns on a BB, do you go down the list of your armament when you go into second volley? Example: 41cm slot 1 and 35.6 on slot 2.

>>11538653
High level goya in itself is not the issue.
The problem is if the Goya has a boiler in it.

>>11538663
If only I could look and see. I'll just assume she does, considering she's probably a slave sub.

>>11538651
I honestly never did. I did wonder about it when I run lone ships through 1-1, I just figured it's due to fleet size like how they don't let you choose formation with lone ships.

>>11538667
I see, you got a battleship early on. I didn't get a battleship until Fusou dropped for me in 2-1 so I immediately noticed the difference.

What's the best support fleet setup for non-boss nodes? 4BBVs seems kind of overkill and it doesn't seem very smart to be spending 1200 ammo to make 1 5-2 run.

>>11538565
Running 1torpedo monster, 1BB, 2CV/CVL + 2fillers are the most efficient imo.

>>11538615
So why the fuck is everyone here telling people to grind 3-2-1 with restarting if it's against the fucking rules? Holy shit you guys are retarded.

>>11538750
It's not against the rules to return to port. I have no clue how you could misinterpret that. It's against the rules to get to the steel node, abort the game, and restart it. Then do that over and over again and put tons of stress on the servers so you can exploit a quick buck.

It's talking about refreshing constantly in a small span of time, which isn't a problem if you actually take breaks between steel runs because of fatigue and whatnot.

Most Moonlanders would probably put more strain overall from loading the website each time they want to play rather than just keeping it idle.

Okay, tell me which of the carriers is this? I couldn't manage to figure it out since there's no blue eyed carriers...

Getting a new DD... guess I have something to get to Lvl20 and dump other feeder DDs to.

Graf Zepplin

>>11538858
That makes no sense what so ever.

>>11538853
Nice for you, I've been trying 2-3 non stop but still nothing... did you get her there BTW?

>>11538865
Indeed, probably it's Wasp.
