I wish it were

I want to do an all-tomboy fleet for E-2 farming for the hell of it. So far I've got Miyuki, Satsuki, Arashi, and Maya. What CL is the most tomboy-ish, and who do I use to fill out the remaining ship?

>>14778089
No, enjoy the Fubuki manga.

>>14778089
Yeah, it's a dating sim. Non-H obviously but some nice fanservice CGs. Routes seem to be Fubuki, Kaga, Kongou, Nagato, Kashima, might be more. Some hidden routes are speculated too, Yamato, Iowa, and some Abyssal. Naka has a neat idol minigame mode.

>>14778104
Kiso, Sendai, maybe Tenryuu and Nagara.

>Kancolle memes

>>14778126
It seems that in most of the girl's routes you end up ringing them at some point, but TTK realizes his love for Kongou early on so it's mostly about married life around the base. Kongou's sisters have a hard time dealing with the fact that TTK actually took Kongou from them and they come up with plans to try to appeal to their sister and steal time with her away from the TTK.

Spoilers

Looks like the end of the route has her going out to sortie for something. I think in the good end she comes back and they show her pregnant with the TTK, and in the bad end the TTK ends up with Haruna but it looks like they're looking for Abyssal Kongou to bring her back or put her to rest or something.

98 runs.

I can only hope that we get some semblance of a story in the next event. Otherwise it just seems like we're getting new ships, instead of something significant.

Not saying any allied vessels should get any special treatment, just some sort of progress in the lore, which we've lacked for the past three years.

>GRAMOROUS_IOWA.jpg

>>14778468
>just some sort of progress in the lore

Since when was there ever any lore? Even the official light novels and mangas contradict themselves.

>>14778466

Seeing post like this makes me feel really bad for the new admirals in the future. They will be like "Yay, finally I've got Zara after 398 rounds of farming" while we got her normally as the map clearing reward.

Vita games are like $50 right?
They're paying that much for that ugly UI and some Live 2D shit?

I honestly didn't think you could make the game's battles look worse, but they did.

>>14778468

Well, until now, the adition of foreign ships have had some very vague story behind then. Exchanging technology with the krauts, U-511 arriving to support cooperation with the krauts. Expedition from Zara. Not sure about Roma, Italia and Libeccio but I think there was something too.

Let's see what they do to justify Iowa and possible next freedom ships.

Something that got added in the last minute?
To be fair, devs were probably still trying to figure shit out and didn't really anticipate the backlash there.

Really kind of unfortunate, since most were generally sympathetic to the devs until that point.

>>14778490
So literally nothing? The girls don't say anything that indicates there is a story or if there was some sort of progress for the last two years. Hell, the word "Abyss" is never even mentioned by any of them, not even in that crappy anime for some odd reason.

>>14778492

>>14778528
Looks like last year's Winter event.

Kancolle is a setting without a story.

Because any story would destroy the setting.

>>14778527
Pretty much. The game's always been reliant on the popularity of the characters, but it seems like they're really dependent on the constant dishing out of new memeworthy characters or characteristics.
Just a little worried about that.

He thinks they are adding the whole navy for some reason.

>>14778597

Did you cry too when the Littorios rendered the Kongos obsolete? For fucks sake, they were amongst the oldest ships in the IJN at that time. Kongo herself is the oldest ship in the game.

Kongos will still retain their low consumption which will make then efficient BBs for quests.

>>14778605
The Iowa class is just the beginning obviously, as time goes on they will introduce more ships.

It's kind of how the game works, if you've noticed.

>>14778601

The Unryuu class combine excellent firepower with low consumption. They are perfect for doing periodical quests so you save resources or for ship locked maps on events that don't need mosntrous air power.

>>14778585
>that was what they were made for.
Come fucking on now, sinking 1905 vintage boats is not what Iowa were designed for. Escorting carrier battle groups was their prime role, hence the compromises in armour and hull shape.

Zara will get her armor fixed in the post-event update, r-right?

>>14778664
Good thing Best Germany is still going stronk.

>>14778646
So does China, it evens out. Contrary to what you see on wikia, a lot of people are eager for Freedom. Visit some nip boards, amazingly a lot of people there are hype for Freedom as well. World vs. Abyssals, no reason why Iowa isn't a great addition.

>>14778675
Yeah but she drops on E2 too among other ships so there is no reason to farm her on E1.

>>14778672
It's not an upper case "i" but a lower case "l" for Lawson. Drops Kashima at ridiculously low %, so low not even poi detects them.

>>14778677
Ok, is the main gun for extra yasen power? I also only have 3 quints (all at +6) and I'm trying to figure out how to distribute them for E-3 Hard.

>>14778663

In the unlikely case that enemy surface ships would close in enough that they would be able to fire upon the carriers, wether it be day or night, you'd need as much firepower as you want to protect your carriers since they barely had armor to stop 155 mm shells until the Midways. In that case, the Iowas would come in and defend the carriers with their 206mm guns against anything that could catch up with then in their retreat.

The Iowas job were that one and only, and they actually never had the oportunity to fulfill it. Iowa could only shoot its main guns once during the guns and that was just to sink Katori.

>>14778669
I wouldn't mind them if they were palette swaps, but they're obviously going to be better, stats wise.

That doesn't sit well with me.

>>14778683
Extra yasen power, day accuracy and night accuracy if cut-in doesn't proc. Gun has to be in first slot.

>>14778685

She doesn't even had torpedoes.

At least that way she could snipe something and pretend to be useful.

>>14778771
75 FP is sufficient. Bump HP to 59 or 61, armor to Ne-class levels (82-89) and you got something decent and usable.

>>14778798
I'd rather remove her torpedo stat entirely and bring her FP and armor up to BB levels

>>14778809

That's what the USN cruisers will all be.

>There are a few reports that 1(F)BB(V)/1CV(B)/2DD/2CA(V) has a small chance to redirect to the land base aerial attack node.

That sounded like the ideal fleet to use, but the wiki has that line. Does it mean it can redirect to D?

>>14778777
for combined fleet you don`t need torpedo stats, with her longe range Zara is the best FS of Suijou Butai and my hear"

Are you high? She's the worst CA precisely because of her range. Aoba is better for CF.

>>14778857

16in is for Big 7 and Hotels.

>>14778860
The OP fit gun picture doesn't include 16inch

>>14778861
That's what I thought as well since it is pretty much similar to 41cm. The question is rather how bad the penalty is on any FBB.

wikiwiki doesn't have any data sample nor 16inch stuff, and wikia is just a clusterfuck with no dedicated overweight penalty page for whatever reason.

>>14778832

Targeting is random and you want to kill them before they have chance to attack.

Now I realized my resources are not healthy enough to consistently sortie Hotels.

>>14778906
>being bullied by DDs
There is nothing more embarrassing.

>>14778919
51cm should be used on Nagatos, Hotels like 41cm.
You fucked up with 46cm but now that you have them upgraded, use them in single fleet.

>>14778877
That's a fair statement. But if it wasn't himeuta, it'd be some other thing.

Some people are just into that kind of dumb shit and there's enough of them that a forum like that is sort of inevitable.

>>14778887
Well for starters, there won't be any ads, also since Saya isn't going to be in control of the new version (since it was uncovered that there was shady jew things happening) and yes at least the reputation system is dead as far as I'm aware.

>>14778932
They couldn't bully her for long. If there's one thing AVs are good at it's clearing DDs.

Speaking of BB guns, is there any data on what the Iowa gun is fit for yet?

>bringing shitty squishies instead of my wife
Don't worry, I used DA CA instead of Maya for final kill.

>>14778907
This screenshot might be better, no support here. Ru who died was supposed to attack that turn.
Now imagine CF with other BBs who have only long range and your Zara steals the first turn hitting that Ru Kai for 10 + 15 damage. You're going home.

>>14778965
Except the bad guys get flagship protection too, so the odds of hitting a flagship first turn are much lower.

>>14778965

She might now fit in those kind of situations but maybe in maps where you can only bring one BB and there are a bunch of high evasion enemies and a boss you may want Zara to kill those high evasion enemies before to have a better chance at your only BB hitting the boss and not wasting shots.

>>14778971
There's another Ru Kai which has no protection.
If you use 2CLTs and route support it's ver likely only those two Ru will be alive at the start of battle.

Anyway, there's zero merit in Zara going first. There is a possibility of great merit with BB shooting first.
BBs can instantly disable CV Hime with a single crit too, CA needs two crits with good rolls.

I can only imagine how good will Iowa be if her guns give her fit bonus on top of the base +4 accuracy, the only possible downside would be if devs don't make 16inch upgradeable.

>>14778981
That would require situation where boss can be disabled in one hit by a battleship AND has shorter range than her escorts. I'm not sure if there was a single one like that.

>>14778989
>AND has shorter range than her escorts
That's not necessary. What is necessary is that it takes 2 solid hits or a crit from a BB to take her down. So any high health boss.

>>14778989

Well, it may come in the future.

>>14778989
The only situation where she could be useful would be killing a DD/CL so that your BB's attacks aren't wasted on them, but then so it's completely situational.

>>14778998
If boss has long range it's better if your BB goes first and hope she disables boss.

>What is necessary is that it takes 2 solid hits or a crit from a BB to take her down.
Such bosses always have escorts that CA can't reliably kill.

>>14779000
Honestly, I have hard time imagining a situation where Zara's long range would be anything but liability.
Her guns however are great for turn manipulation among other cruisers.

>>14779009
And what if she doesn't target that DD? You have no control over that.

Even if long range was useful you're forgetting you can just use Tone with a SCAMP or give her shitty pasta gun to any other CA.

She's useless.

>>14779016
>great for turn manipulation among other cruisers
Yeah, best PvP/3-2A gun ever.

>>14779016
Exactly. It's completely situational. It's only useful when it happens, but worthless otherwise.

>>14779028

She has base long range so you can use 20.3 or SK guns on her and still shoot before most cruisers.

Well shit, I switched E2 difficulty to Hard to reset the bar for farming, forgot to set it back to Easy, but S-ranked the boss anyway.

I've got a good feeling about this comp.

So if you have upgraded 46cm, just pair them with +accuracy guns like Biscuit guns.

I've been changing it up since nothing seems to be working; rotating DD's, positions.

I feel like I need to feed maruyu's or something to Kitakami.

Don't have Abubear and Bis and hotels.

I love how my girls will aim at the boss during the whole day phase but refuse to aim at her at night where they could actually kill her off. It's especially fun when Ooi and Kitakami waste amazing crits on the dysons. I want to die /jp/

>>14779317
You didn't post much about your fleet. Aside from lack of Abukuma, your fleet is pretty strong and should be capable of sinking boss. Don't use TCI on Kitakami.
Put cut-in ship as flaghip and not a Jintsuu. Second spot is terrible choice for Prinz. She should be either flag or one of bottom ships.
Do you sparkle?

>>14779320
Well, it is much worse than E2. However you have more than a week left, that's enough to gather resources for not only clearing E3 but also quite a bit of farming.

Yeah, I put Prinz towards the second last slot today. I'll take TCI off of KTKM and give her double yellows then.

I don't sparkle but I guess I really should.

Main fleet I ran 2CVL for like 1 day and now I'm running 1CA 1CV to see if I get better results.

This is the main fleet of what I've been running for the past 10 runs. Before that I ran 2CVL.

I have higher level FBB's that took Mutsu's place when I ran 2CVL, like Haruna.

I honestly think I just don't have high enough level equipment upgraded or better equipment in general.

>>14779350
Still better than Jintsuu. Mere 6 points difference in yfp but she can kill that stupid DD which survives air strike and avoids support. Don't forget she helps on first and third node.
She has more luck too so TCI makes more sense on her with which she can deal much more damage than Jintsuu while making her opening torpedo pretty strong.

Fuck ranking forever, never again.

>>14779363
I see you have Akashi. Try giving at least +1 to all the guns you use if you have screws for that.
If you have another Kongou Kai Ni, use her instead of Yamashiro Kai. Fusous are too fragile. If you have two more, using one instead of Mutsu might be good idea too. Mucchan is love but her evasion at lv45 is low.
Put Tenzan 12 Murata/Tomonaga on Kaga's first slot. Reppuu on second, third and fourth slots are enough for AS.
Don't use AACI Maya for final kill, use your strongest CA with double attack.
Alternatively you can go back to 2CVL but I'm honestly not sure about their survivability at not-too-high levels.
I'd put BB to flagship so that they can start second shelling - this should help on preboss node.

Sparkle helps a lot. Once you have your ships sparkled, only crits can get you before boss node.

I'm farming Graf on easy and credit to it's namesake it is really easy. I get S rank on the node on every sortie with FCF. Is it worth moving up to farm on normal or hard for increased drop rate?

>>14779398
>Try giving at least +1 to all the guns you use if you have screws for that.

Not him, but why is that? Is the first improvement bonus significant or something?

>>14779406
Depends on your fleet and if you can still get S ranks consistently/easily.

Which map are you farming on? I don't need Graf, so I don't know which one it is.

>>14779398
Thanks for the advice.

I'll go improve main guns now then I guess.

Yeah, I have Kirishima and Haruna K2'd but I just had bad experiences with them getting Crit by BB Hime.

I can try 2CVL's again, My Jun'you is 85 and my RJ is 95. I'll give 1CV a go again though.

Guess I'll go sparkle up, use Choukai with DA and pray.

Thanks anon, I'll probably try again tomorrow since I've burned myself out today trying to sink the boss.

>>14779407
Yes.
Bonuses from improvements are square rooted (sometimes result has additional modifier though), so first star is the most important.

>>14779412

She only drops on E3 node L, the one before the boss on the south approach. You only fight 2 nodes and one bombing node.

>>14779417
I hope it helps. Good luck!

Anyone got recommendations for farming E2N?
Most of the rei-go team is fairly low level, and the south route is EXPENSIVE.

>>14779407
>>14779420
Adding to this, for BB guns you want them at least at +2 for the x1.5 modifier, so that floor(sqrt(2)*1.5) = +2 FP.

>>14779081
It's 3 points every 3 minutes.

Or to put it in other way, what other eq gets at +4, BB guns get at +2 already. That's why they're good starting point.

I hope you're clearing it on hard.

>wanting to face nuke subs again

>>14779519
Yeah, it happens ~once per season.

>>14779526
Some blurb they're claiming on wikia that eliminates the non-drop formation if you go last dance.

>>14779533

I've got 250 buckets and 50k all resources, that should be enough I think, I was just planning on getting Graf before clearing so I don't have to keep reclearing the TP bar.

>>14779539

Well I'll give it a shot

>>14779548
Do you have KCV with battleinfo? The one comp that doesn't drop graf is the one with double ID 513 transports with no equips. If you get that comp at last dance then it's a myth.

>>14779563

That's what I'm using, but I don't see any IDs or equips in battleinfo

>>14779521
Right. That's why I said I can't really help out since I didn't bother with the southern route.

You can hover over the transport to see their stats and equips. If both transports have no equips then it's the comp that doesn't drop graf.

Congratulations on Fumo Radar number 5.

>>14779599
So how many pudding did he scrapped?

>>14779586
Most important thing you should do is level your Taitei-chan to >>.

>>14779599
what a handsome voice

>>14779604

>>14779599

ARGH.
I'm legit mad. He optimizes ex5 but doesn't even know how to use presets?

>>14779641
Just wait, all of them would be at *max once I farm enough fodder.

>>14779630
I think there was anon who had Prinz and got another one this event but he didn't have FuMO from Spring.
Maybe it's set in a way that you can get second Prinz only if you lack FuMO?
