KanColle Headquarter!

[KingArturia]

My bad actually cause I didn't notice the sentences I wrote earlier are gone.
You know it is not easy to ignore reading those in brackets when they are like.. link together with the actual sentence.

Now anticipating Oct 9 update.
User Interface update I assume.

Maybe they're going to give us the KanColle Arcade UI? xD And I don't suppose you prefer footnotes do you? xD

Somehow I feel bad for not going with this Shoukaku trend, one is because I don't have catapult and two might be because Kaga still have the biggest slot of 46...

[MENTION=29996]ecael[/MENTION] I just manage to rolled Orion on my second roll after the event started! I also got Zhuge Liang and 2 Ushiwakamaru from the first roll. For the Orion roll I also got 2 Stheno as well xD Stheno seems like a good assassin against male and do you know whether Ushiwakamaru and Zhuge Liang is any good?

Shoukaku is pretty ridiculous lol, base numbers so high. High enough that I am working on a second one in case we have spare catapults to throw around after Zuikaku.

Waver is pretty bad atm, high stats caster but average skills and subpar np, but this can change easily if they start to go through kinks in the game mechanics. Also lol wtf such a luckster, you have more 5stars on one account than I have on like 4 ;;

There are a lot of historical fiction going around when it comes to Midway. But the fact of the matter is considering the strategic disadvantage of the IJN, even without the chain of unfortunate events that made the battle such an onesided rout, it would not have been an overwhelming victory for them either.

Somehow I don't know why slot seems to mean more than raw stats, but then again that's only really for AA most of the time I suppose?

xD I don't know whether that's a good thing or a bad thing, I still haven't got my 5 Star Seiba yet -3- Oh out of interest do you think they'll release same character with different NP (like Seiba having Avalon and Jeanne d'Arc with her other NP)? I feel like that might be a likely direction they'll go sometime...?

Midway, I doubt it'll be a victory for IJN without the unfortunate chain or event, it'll at best be 50/50 chance that IJN emerge victory, and I think given how far stretched and exhausted the IJN have been, with the eventual fall of Germany, IJN alone will eventually fall, so whether it is Midway that was the turning point or not isn't important, but the fact that end result I cannot see IJN come out victorious.

 

[FireShark]

Better end sooner than later.:)
With the amount of ships the USN side is producing and the amount of resources they have, I don't think the IJN even have a chance. Operation Tengo is already a mark for IJN but look at the USN still trying to bring out Midway CV.

 

[ecael]

Slots have had a pretty significant meaning made by veterancy, Taihou was one of the hidden mvps of last event simply due to how good 30/24/24 was against AACI. Raw stats are still important though, since you are providing meaning to slot sizes that way. I much prefer this approach of balance and gameplay to the gimmicky, standard mobage approach that the mobile ripoff boats are doing with ships providing bonuses to other ships by existing.

Then again, those things are collection based in a different way fundamentally~

They have Arthuria lancer in the data right now so something like that is possible, though I think it'll probably work out as people being summoned as different classes and thus manifest with different NPs, like casterniki this time around.

To be honest US only had that much resource was clearly because they never really engaged into the War until what? Late 1941? Where the war have been going on for nearly 3 years in other parts of the world? US during both WW have always took the stance of let you fight and clean up afterward, very clever plans. xD

I'm still trying to hunt for a Taihou >_< I just think the whole thing about 4 slot system need a revamp for CV, it is just not working for CV, I personally think it just barely works on a god damn BB. Like I don't mind having hard difficulty however at least give us options to improve our fleet instead of restricting us what we can take on a battle. Like I said before that the new Plane system is such a poor fix to the underlying problem its funny how we still use CV xD

Hm...I find it difficult to level up the servant beyond level 25...it takes so much god damn exp card to level them up >_> Any help? How does people actually level?

Also by the way guys, what is the best way to get the 50 transport ships quest?

 

[FireShark]

Also by the way guys, what is the best way to get the 50 transport ships quest?

3 subs rotation on 2-2. Do together with daily 5 boss kills on world 2.

 

[KingArturia]

After I got that quest where is the best place to hunt those transport ships?

 

[FireShark]

Hang on, your first question is about how to unlock the 50 Transport quest right? Where we have to clear the 6 S-rank + 24 bosses quest first.
I just do 1-1 sparkle every ships that I'll be using for EOs/expedition until quest complete and the 3 sub method on world 2-2 for all 50 transports kills.

Oh ok, so farm 1-1 til quest done and then 2-2, got it. Thanks.

US had more resources because it is a bigger country with greater industrial output as well as more natural resources lol. If we take the effects of war in trade disruption to be a given and discount strategic reserves, the access of a country to resources based on its borders and remaining available trading options. The US had been expending resources on the European theater indirectly with lend-lease act. One of the reasons the IJN wanted a greater focus on SEA to Oceania was for the natural resources that the main island lacked so much in.

Not to say that the effects of war did not drain the nations involved from the very start of resources, but that is really a minor factor in light of how much the US was capable of producing at that point once it was allowed to enter a war economy.

Considering that we can actually run full offense carrier in a larger fleet now I think veterancy has already addressed a major problem. If they don't revamp the underlying systems, I don't think we'll see much more unless they take veterancy one step further and start to have equipment loadout setups for planes to allow for further specialization.

@FGO Leveling isn't too bad? It was way worse at the start of the game, problem for you is probably that you missed all the half ap on xp/qp events. The new 40ap xp daily gives a ton of gold xps so even without a half ap event I find myself farming fine. Of course, the best way is simply to pray for a half ap event and stone heavily on a good amount of base ap to be able to level everything. Having a ton of rare servants comes to bite you in the ass now, just focus on like 2~3 and push them to 60~70+ while have less rare stuff at like 30~40 should probably be enough for the moment being. Assuming they don't jack up difficulty too much after spamming us with all these free mats. The true terror comes after like 70 when you see a full set of gold xp w/ class bonus only fills half a bar of xp, if even.

Sub on 2-2? Better to 2-3.

 

[pichu655889]

What is this 3-sub method that I've never heard of

 

[FireShark]

I suggest 2-2 cause bauxite gain and chances of having only 1 encounter with 4 transports per run compare to 2-3. King probably want more Bauxite for Taihou.

[MENTION=67840]pichu655889[/MENTION]; Use only 3 submarines fleet for 2-2/2-3 runs. You need about 8 to 9 spare submarines total to run non-stop. Replace fatigue subs every 2 runs except the flagship sub who can run about 3 to 4 times.

2-2 for Transport kills and Baux gain. 5 - 35 per node. More retreats here if RNG bad mood.
2-3 for Transport and Carrier kills and Fuel/Ammo gain.

Baux > Fuel/Ammo anytime. Especially when you CV crafting or Radars, freaking radars upgrades.

----------------------------

For those who haven't read the latest upcoming KC update.

Saber Isokaze will be obtainable somewhere during the mini event.
Also getting new seasonal CG.

 

[moemoe-kyun]

@pichu 3 SS to 2-3. That's the legendary Orel cruising :D.

The new quests are annoying... I have Oboro and Akigumo but they are sitting at... lv1 >.<. Must kai them first and then maximum modernization before sortie to 5-2 ;_;.

 

[KingArturia]

>_< Another 2 Taihou attempt, no luck still...

 

[moemoe-kyun]

Hooo so you attempt Taihou today too ^^. Today is my 3rd or 4th, i don't remember, still failed.

Which recipe did you use? And who is your FS?

 

[FireShark]

[MENTION=33830]moemoe-kyun[/MENTION]; You never give your waifu a chance?

Follow me on this myth,
Shoukaku FS with Zuikaku only with 3.5/3.5/6/6 - 20.
Taihou is based on Shoukaku after all.

Kai them for better chance of success, otherwise just FS the weakest and pray. It's doable even with level 1 due to how easy 5-2 is. Minus RU-chan screwing you up.

Spoiler: Here's my Operation MO Carriers with waifu and 2 garbage 5-2 success.

2 freshly Kai will be tough if you fail to clear most at day.
But still they don't even need to try when your CV are beasts. :D

 

[moemoe-kyun]

I used my waifu but the recipe i used is 4/2/6/7. Hmm... must try your way next time :D.

 

[Shir0]

As if any of these setups even raised the chances. :D I just used Hiryuu as FS and tried my luck, not expecting any good results.

And I only ever use subs for 3-2A. Good to know that I can use them for carrier and transport quests.

 

[KingArturia]

[MENTION=33830]moemoe-kyun[/MENTION] I had Kaga (Flag), Akagi, Shoukaku, Zuikaku, Hiryuu and Souryuu in my 1st fleet when I attempted 3.5/3.5/6/6 20... Got a Maruyu and Souryuu/Hiryuu...

BUT I AREN'T EVEN FUCKING MAD, BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT I JUST GOT ON FGO, NOT EVEN FUCKING MAD ANYMORE.

Spoiler: GG No Taihou but I got this

[MENTION=29996]ecael[/MENTION] You mad yet? I also just got Fate Lancer and Siegfried which I'm not sure whether they're good or not...? I heard Siegfried is amazing though? :P Here is the bunch of cards I've, still missing my Jeanne d'Arc...Any idea whether any of those CE worth leveling?

Spoiler: 4 Star or Above

 

[FireShark]

Holy--OP--- King's collection.

Holy--OP--- King's collection.

Now I just need to find my Jeanne d'Arc ;_;

 

[FireShark]

Is that El-Melloi 2 as a combatant?
I didn't follow but did he turn into a servant or something?

Also, that bad ass Black Lancer.

He's summoned as Zhuge Liang at the moment...not sure how that does actually, never bothered reading up on him. Black Lancer??? wut?

 

[FireShark]

Vlad 3 a.k.a Lancer of Black. I noticed he is in Berserker form. Nice.

--------------------------------------------------

Due to the "extremely peculiar circumstances" of the Grand Orders, Lord El-Melloi II was forced to become a receptacle for his spirit to facilitate a successful summoning. Lord El-Melloi II himself lacks the means or history to become a Heroic Spirit. - Zhuge Liang wiki

It is him after all?
