It is obvious that Amamiya Chiharu had a fallout with Tanaka. Sexual harassment maybe? There is no way some literally who artist would actually make more shekels from selling porn books at some obscure corner in tokyo big sight rather than being a famous artist in one of the most biggest IP in Japan now.

>>14972370
Yeah, but the hint for the third one is so vague that no one has bothered till now to pick a side, maybe they're still licking their wounds from the Michishio debacle, either way it doesn't seem like anyone cares all that much at the moment.

>>14972460
Artist comes back and does Suzukaze kai ni then disappears again. Then Samidare gets Ichiso'd.

>>14972467
It would be nice if Samidare at least got firepower and torpedo stats exceeding Poi's to make up for all that her fans are going through.

There was hardly any backlash once they confirmed Ooshio compare to the samiwho debacle. Just look at all the crying and even begging for kuso ichiso to adopt samiwho.

>>14972596
Debacle was probably a bit exaggerated, but I'm still surprised how silent Michishiofags are about the third kai ni.

>>14972616
Maybe there just aren't as many as them. Or maybe it isn't as much of an issue since she isn't a starter.

This. I leveled Michishio to 75 and despite the dissapointment at her not being the hinted Asashio Kai Ni I'll just be waiting for her more than probable Kai Ni when Leyte happens.

Samidare is another thing, with her being abandoned by the devs, the artist MIA and a trophy DD getting the Kai Ni before despite her being an starter.

Well, as long as Kuso doesn't taint her I can live on waiting and having hope.

Time for level Mikuma. What an exciting experience awaits me.

Well from an stats PoV the whole Mogami class is amongst the weakest heavy cruisers in the game with only the Furutaka and Aoba class behind. The powercreep has hit then hard and their only redeeming factor are the fact that they are CAV.

>>14972799
I discussed that on the previous thread. I need a second CAV right now though and I sure won't farm a blueprint and get Tone or Chikuma to 70.

>I need a second CAV
He doesn't even have Suzuya or Kumano or barely got one. He's in his first or second month of playing. He ain't got time for wasting bp on Tone, even if Tone is the best CAV. He has to get the shitty Abukuma first and Fusou after that.

If you said your waifu is Tone and everybody should have her as first bp ship, you would at least be somewhat excused as delusional fool. But you go on about stats despite forcing the guy to make shit decision stat-wise.

As a newbie whose only upgraded stuff are AP shells to +6-9, and akiguns to +1, what should I focus on first? I have no rare guns, and the only uncommon one is a proto 41. I don't even have a proto 35.6 yet. Should I try maxing out my akiguns, creating some proto 35.6 or something else? I have about 40 screws right now.

>>14972972
Proto 41 is one of the best guns at the moment. Do this one and work on getting 35.6 proto. You use 4-5 AP Shells in Suijou, so try to have four upgraded if it isn't the case already. Bumping Aki guns to +4 will definitely pay off on light fleet map.
No CA Kai Ni? Almost all of them have guns worth upgrading.
It's fine to upgrade non-rare BB gun if you lack better ones but try to give screws to something you'll use a lot.

>>14972967
Nah I'm not him. In fact I disagree with him on plenty of counts. Tone-class kai 2 may be best CAVs, but they're nowhere near the top in terms of blueprint priority. Abukuma being first is no question. In fact I would put Fusou, Yamashiro and even Bismarck above Tone-class. Unless of course compass rules dictate you need CAVs, but that's only for when you really need it. I can't remember any event that needed more than two CAVs.

Though given how easy it is to get Suzuya and Kumano from 2-5, I'm surprised he got Mikuma before either of them.

>>14972972
Don't bother with BB unless you have any of the below.
51cm - pray they will give them out again either form ranking or events
proto41cm - I think you will get 4 of them when you kai the kusou class and bongos
proto35.6 - you will get them from monkeys kai2 or some quests
38cm kai - get biscuit

You can always fall back to non BB stuff and upgrade these
3gou - start leveling kinugasa/mikuma
quint - start farming kitaooi
akiguns - if you nothing to upgrade, you can always fall back to upgrading them
90mm - max 1 it for your Maya
T3 sonar/T3 depth - you can always start putting 1star on them during your daily
AP shell - always fall back to AP shell since they only need 1screw if you really have nothing better to upgrade. It is good to have at least 5 of them ready for a suijou fleet
daihatsu - they are also free to upgrade with the daily

>>14972983
>No CA Kai Ni?
I'm working on all the bobsquad at once so they're still 10 or so levels away from giving me their 20.3 (2). I also have 2 Mikumas waiting to get kai'd but I have so many things to level I'm having trouble choosing what to prioritize.
Thanks for the advice.

Why are these threads full of samiwhofags tears and nobody even posts about how Kawakaze is a great girl with nice art and personality? Is nobody happy about her getting k2?
I mean is she even popular with you guys? As for me, I consider giving her the ring when she gets to the level.

>>14972995
You get 41cm from monkeys kai 2, not proto 35.6cm. Other than Haruna who gives 35.6cm dazzle camo.

>>14973027
She is popular but that's it. "Oh, nice, ship I like is getting Kai Ni, that's pretty cool". Meanwhile Samidare has special place in hearts of some players thanks to being a starter.

>>14973027
I imagine Samidare matters more for some than Kawakaze does for others.

Why are you such whiny bitches? I want to feel bad for you guys, but you're making this increasingly difficult. She got new lines this year too, that's more than Suzukaze got, despite them having the same VA, but all you can think about is your muh starter privilege and suddenly it's all about the devs bullying you on purpose.
She gets ignored because her artist is dead, be that due to general inactivity or because they're at a secret war with Kadokawa or whatever, and her general popularity, or lack thereof, just doesn't warrant her to become a marketing priority, especially if her artist is unavailable. Ichiso is your best bet to get out of this vicious cycle by now, but you don't want him to touch her with a ten foot pole either. I'm starting to think that some of you enjoy the pain.
The only probably intentional bullying she ever received was getting taken out of the anime, but I doubt that Tanaka called Diomedéa one night for shits and giggles and told them to take out the blue one for the BD just to fuck with you.

Not the mention the wikiashitters are further giving them false hope and enabling their delusions. I just went to have a look at their update page, there is a small entry about Ooshio receiving her kai2 during the next maintenance but they are purposely omitting Kawakaze as the future update. You seriously can't make this up. They are actually ignoring the words coming out from Fujita teitoku.

New player here who've just gotten to the plane conversion quests. I've seen some people arguing about whether to get the fighter/bomber or which one is better, can't you just get both?

Have you read Meguka?

>>14973027
Maybe because Kawakaze is a newfag in comparison? Maybe because she's drawn by a huge faggot who is infamous for slapping exactly the same face on 98% of his ships where remaining 2% is Kawakaze? Maybe because Kuso Ichiso is so fucking shit Jesus Christ, Tanaka, ditch him and his shitgureface already.

>>14973158
I was in the threads.
BD fixed most of QUALITY and in the movies there was not a single badly drawn scene. But it's Shaft we're talking about, no other studio is as anal about making corrections. Diomedea went for an easy way out instead.

>>14973039
>seething
I doubt it.

>>14973062
I like Samidare but not to the extent of being disappointed by Kawakaze getting kai 2 before her. I don't think she'll get kai 2 before Sazanami or Inazuma anyway. And everyone knows that in practice, the starter privilege only applies to Fubuki.

I have no idea why Samidare's artist stopped drawing her, but I don't think the devs will let a different artist draw her, and they'll rather leave her without a kai 2 instead. I've always thought that the claim that everyone will eventually get a kai 2 was at best made in jest (it's hard to imagine Miyuki getting a kai 2, for example); I'm not sure if it even existed to begin with.

Regarding Ichiso as an artist, I find him alright. While he's oftentimes guilty of sameface, it'a hardly surprising since it's only natural to keep doing something that works. Still, it's perfectly understandable why Samidarefags wouldn't want him to do her kai 2.

I don't know why she was taken out of the anime BDs either, but given that it was just that one scene, and the QUALITY the rest of the anime had, it's likely just a mistake on Diomedéa's part. Still, I wouldn't be surprised if Tanaka wanted us to think that.

What I think now, is that Samidarefags have the following layers of hope:
-That this is just a one-off thing, and that the same won't happen to Harusame, Umikaze or even Yamakaze;
-That even if the above happens, Samidare's kai 2 won't have a different artist, and that it'll be great, both in art and in stats (what with that "good things come to those who wait" drivel and all);
-That even if she doesn't get a kai 2, Samidare won't be any worse off than Suzukaze, considering both are in the same position. If even this layer is breached, the best that can happen is that Suzukaze gets Ichiso'd first; the worst that can happen is that their artist returns, does Suzukaze kai 2 and leaves again, and then Samidare gets Ichiso'd. Hardly something to look forward to.

But for the most part, you're right. Let's see what happens next, whether the devs really are bullying Samidare, before we speculate any farther.

Guys

What if

The April Fools is

That every one of the hinted girls get a Kai Ni (provisional)?

I'm glad it's Kawakaze. Ship designs have only gotten better since the game first started and I've always been sad at the thought that the newer trophy DDs are all mostly forgotten.

I'm damn happy. The Shiratsuyu are my favorite class and I would have been okay with any of them for the kai ni, but that my favorite Kawakaze got it is the icing on the cake. Especially because I never thought that it would happen so soon, she's a relative new trophy and has less rarer sisters waiting for one after all.
I'm also happy about the implication that this could mean more trophy kai ni in the future.

>>14973249
Mine is level 124. Pretty sure I'm fucked.

Kind of sucks that Katori can only be used in the practice battles. Makes sense though.

Like it says even if the accuracy is emphasized you should still order starting from first because it does matter

Ok brah.
Keep on using your Murata in the second tiny slot and use your Egusa in the big first slot. I guess I finally realize why there were people using their murata on their carrier last/small slot. KEK

>>14973771
you need 2 carriers for routing. I figure I can spend one more week playing idlecolle and trying to fish out cranes or taihou before it's time to start saving or else I'm going into the event with light carriers only.

also if I'm hq level 79 right now would it be worth skipping my weeklies for the rest of the month so I can get easier blueprints from 1-5 and 2-5?

>>14973842
Look anon. For contact selection, The game automatically reorganizes all planes in your fleet according to their accuracy from highest to lowest. After doing that, if you have multiple planes that have a same amount of accuracy, it orders that from top to bottom, 1st to 6th ship (which doesn't matter because >same amount of accuracy).

>>14973852
Kancolle-db is fucked since their data sample is mixed with old data when 25mm Single Autocannon Mount isn't in the crafting pool. Keep a log for yourself and so far I am getting about ~4% with the cheap recipe >>14972928

Not him, but the part about the process from top to bottom occurring only when multiple planes have the same Accuracy isn't there in the JP wikia, it just says the order isn't really important.
How was this shit even tested anyways? I sense some bullshit test method as usual.

Which of the typical grinding/farming regular maps is most efficient to farm for ChiyoChito sisters and their rocket launcher?

>>14973892
>same Accuracy isn't there in the JP wikia
The JP wikia has a picture guide denoting priority with (1) (2) just for idiot like that tuff guy dude up there. Just look at the table. Order is literally not imporant unless plane with same accuracy give different bonus.

The new daihatsu quest doesn't seem to appear after completing Bw9.

Is there anything else I need to do in order to make that quest appear?

>>14973927
Plane slot size only affects contact rate and even so it doesn't matter that much for bombers. Primary source of contact chance will always be Saiun and Yamato seaplane.

>>14973937

try refreshing the game.

>>14973949
Right. So it's basically the LOS for triggering and ACC for selection, correct? So in theory If I don't mind red T could I swap Yamato planes for Shiun and Saiun for T2 recon for better contact while still maintaining the same rate?

>>14973955
No good, it still doesn't show up. It's suppose to appear after brown quests but nothing is there at the moment.

I just saw someone posting how D19 might be the culprit but shit, if that really was the case then I might've wasted my time/resources completing all those weeklies.

I actually thought about asking that after reading that because I'm apparently so damn stupid I need to be spoonfed on the game mechanics even after reading the wiki. I take it that means I'm correct but I wonder why they use different slot sizes in Yamato plane case

>>14973990
Wait nevermind. I mistook the first four Yamato planes for Zero recon for some reason

So basically I should just include as many +3 accuracy planes as possible in my fleet and that's it, right?

>>14973849
What's the point with you posting this reaction image? It's like every time you post it your point gets shot down.

How many 12cm 30-tube Rocket Launcher do I need to make the tank?

>>14974010
I'm hoping on +3acc recons to be added. Maybe superior USA planes will have that

How were USN seaplanes compared to Japanese anyway?

>>14974056

Jap seaplanes were among the finest if not the finest seaplanes in the world. Japs made a lot of different seaplanes for diferent tasks too.

>>14974056
Japan had better seaplanes though.

>>14974066
>>14974106
I guess that hope goes there then, maybe. Considering the shitty Italian plane got 2acc perhaps there's still a very slim chance. They'll probably want to include some sort of gimmick to any new equipment so there's at least some reason to use it.

>>14974118

desu, devs sometimes pute very little atention to historical accuracy on their decisions about stats and such. Prinz stats (Too much fp and definetly too much torp) and Zara's stats (shit armor) are prime examples.

So who knows?

>>14974056
Didn't 16inches description hint about radar-link spotting for USN?

Can Akitsu Maru's planes gain chevron?

>>14974135
> Zara's stats
J-just wait for Zara Due.

>>14974135
Prinz stats are okay. She has less fp than other cruisers. If you're saying the difference is too small for 10 vs 8 guns, it can be explained by SK being better guns. Both Myoukou and Takao class had 8 torpedo tubes while Prinz has 12 torpedo tubes.

Zara got shafted badly though, she should have ~90 armor.

>>14974146
Sadly, no. Four autogyro with chevrons would be fucking broken.

>>14974173
>Both Myoukou and Takao class had 8 torpedo tubes while Prinz has 12 torpedo tubes.

Yeah, I wonder if the radar itself will include the fire control system or if it will be a different piece of equipment. In that case you'd be sacrificing AP shell setup for 2guns+radar+fire control. I guess it would still be useful during air denial

>>14974177
Well, you had no problem claiming Prinz's fp is too high even though she had better guns. Prinz won't be getting Zwei so you should be comparing her to Japanese Kai Ni CAs. She loses badly in firepower and is only #3 in torpedo, tied with Haguro and Ashigara. AA Maya had same amount of guns as Prinz but she has more firepower in the game.

Those pictures of the destruction at the boss node in that shitpost collage I made were using north route. The evasion and damage penalty from north route just gives RNG too big a chance to completely fuck your shit up at the boss. The RNG sucks at the first node in south, but at least if you pass it you're probably good to S-rank boss.

Pic related is a south route kill, this is incredibly less likely north route with the damage/evasion penalty, and I've had this result or only slightly worse several times not just this once.

>>14974261
You're supposed to pick the 120% X 2 setup over 130%.

>>14974261
How the fuck did you read that page and come to the conclusion that cut-in setup was the way to go?

>>14974261
Always use double attack on your ships unless you want some kind of high-luck ship to do a CI on the boss (which you won't need at your level).

>>14974245

>Evasion penalty

Which I'll take any moment since in the event that it indeeds fuck me up I'll just repair my ships without bucket and try another day.

>>14974234

Zuiun + 3 Reppuu should be enough for AS for pre-boss, AS+ for boss node if you use Kaga's big slot and roll the boss composition with lower fighter power.

>>14974391

You don't need 420 AA though. 390 should suffice.

>>14974419

>3BB3CV

It's actually 3fBB 3CV unless you want to go through the subs night battle node. The problems with that composition are:

- Obviously, fBB have less fp and armor than the Nagatos/Yamatos unless you've gotten both pastas and Bismarck Drei.
- Your CVs have, individually, less power because they'd be equiped with 2 attack planes each unless you want to use a CV as a Reppu mule.

The idea behind the 1CVL 3BB 2CV with the CVL as Reppu mule is letting the 2 CVs reach higher power because they can use 3 attack planes. If you've got good planes you can reach 390 AA with ChitoChiyo or Junyou having 3 fighters + type2 recon and Zuikaku-Shoukaku having fighters only in the smaller slots: That brings the best chances for overcrit.

This. She is very cute.

>>14974684
Kumarinko is lovely.

>>14974670
Of all the planes you can farm, you want hers the most.

>>14974670
You need at least eight to get into the cool kids' club m8

>>14974677
Almost. Looking at the wiki, they don't seem that impressive.

>3CVs with two bombers each
>opening airstrike kills nothing

This shit needs to stop.

>>14974700
Look harder. There's only one better plane for support fleets and you can only have a single one.

Finally did it. Still need some more maruyu before the event. Got +4 if anyone cares.

>>14974670
I don't have any other girl to level and her bomber has its use in support fleets.

Plus I can give her random planes to get them proficiency if I need to (I don't now).

>>14974706
Stop using shit planes then.

Advice on fleet for 2-5 clearing? I don't have any Saiuns for my CVL.

>>14974719

There are no better planes chucklefuck

>>14974710
She's going to need a lot of those repair fairies.

>>14974730
Drop KTKM for another CVL

>>14974730
>No saiun
>shit torp bombers
>shit dive bombers
>that kitakami loadout

Priorities anon.

>>14974735
There's no way he has enough planes for another CVL

>>14974730
North is easy

I've made the most kuso move in my Kantai Collection history just now.

Sunk Zuikaku Kai Ni A full of high tier planes on 5-5 simply because I thought I had a repair on it and was wrong.

>>14974740
Perfect opportunity to quit.

>>14974740
At least you have a third flight deck, r-right?

>>14974740
And it's not even during an event. Shame on you, TTK.

Which planes did you lose?

>>14974744
R-right. Totally!

>>14974743
It's a distinct possibility.

Prove it nigger. You might as well quit if you lose 1 Murata.

>>14974740
Sorry to hear. Which planes? Probably the worst mistake to make and this is why you use viewers to see if you have a damecon on AND also check manually before sortieing. You at least have that 3rd catapult, right?

>>14974740
You can finally quit now!

>>14974740
You can't post shit like this and not show proof.

This cannot be true anon, this is a joke, right?

I've literally fall into depression if this happened to me.

>>14974749
>>14974750
>>14974746
Murata, actually.
I don't even feel mad. Just shocked. I should've screencapped it, but I was shocked. One moment.

>>14974738
Yeah, probably should've have completely overlooked planes. What would you replace on KTKM, since the radar is necessary to keep LoS above 80.

>>14974766
Don't worry about preboss to boss LoS unless you can get from start to the preboss

>>14974762
At least you didn't lose Iwai, Iwamoto or Tomonaga.

>>14974740
People use damekon outside of events?

>>14974775
Not typically, but I was a bit desperate (and tired). Trying to scrounge together any semblance of proof without a viewer.

>>14974730
>TWO Type32
Holy fuck. Craft good planes though, the ones you have are utter shit. Bomber goes to first slot.

>>14974766
You don't need 80. You need 70.4 to guarantee boss but you can get to boss even with 60.

>>14974740
Either you're trolling or that's brutal.

I lost my Kitakami #1 the same way at Ironbottom Sound in '13, by the way, and literally crushed my laptop.

Never used damekon since then.

>>14974730
Who has two t32 RADAR and no Reppuu?

Well, I'm never going to use damekons. What a terrible crutch to get used to. At least, if you dont use a viewer.

Also, I was that guy that had trouble getting Shoukaku and was complaning a week or two back. Also the Kagawho? (pic from two weeks back) person.
