Resetting 2 lines in a split tech tree for research bureau

resetting 2 lines in a split tech tree  for research bureau

 

I know that we have double bonus every 3 months for resetting a line in the research bureau. I’d like to know the following:

For a split tech tree, such as the US cruiser line, if I reset one of them in the last day of the first 3 months, and 1 days later reset the other one, how many research bonus will I get at last? I have to finish the regrinding process all within 3 months or not? The research points will be doubled as the following: ?

VI: 500x2

VII: 500x2

VIII&IX:1500x2

VIII&IX:1500x2

X:6000x2

X:6000x2

so in total I have 38000 research points?

The point is that I could save some time to double rearind I-VII.

 

Thanks in advance

On the US cruiser split you have Dallas and Helena too. But you'll not have 2x from both of them. You'll get the bonus just from the one branch (for example the one leading to DM). So 30k only.

I have another question about rb points. Do you lose the mulitpliers if you dont finish the grind in the 3 month period?

When will the next x2 multiplier kick in and where can I read about that magic?

Thanks! I will look for that 😀

IIRC you will get the option to collect RB points on the ships that were researched (not neccessarily purchased) at the moment of the line reset. If that is the first reset in the particular 3-month period, the RBs on these ships will be doubled.

Thanks for the replies. I'd like to make my question clearer:

There is a 3-month period for the double points. Let's say we have 2 of these period in sequence, namely period 1 and period 2 (a total of 6 months).

If in the last day of period 1, I reset 1 line of the split tree (US cruiser or Russian cruiser in the near future after fully grinned of course), then in the first day of period 2, I reset the other line of the same split tree, and start to grind both of them, will I get double bonus for all the T6 and above ships, or only on one branch of it?

Hi guys, please shed some lights for my question. I'm new to the research bureau. Thanks in advance:)

those are separate lines so you'll get double bonus for any of them if you reset at the moment when 2x offer is active.

Thanks for the reply! I just want to make sure if I understood you well:

You can't reset the second line as you haven't researched all ships in it.

Let's assume if I've researched the 2 lines, would it happen as I expect? Thanks:)

[Sons_of_Horus]

If you freexp to the split then yes. Once you do the first reset, the line is unresearched from tier1 onwards. Reset needs all ships researched from tier1 to tier10.

Thanks. So either I use free xp or regrind the 2 lines in the way I mentioned above,I’ll get double research points for all the T6 and above ships? Which means I only need to regrind lower tiers once?

Why do you (you as in general you) reset a line?

To get Colbert and Ohio or there's something else apart from legendary modules?

 

I just want to understand, it makes no sense to me.

after all I went through to reach T10, now I must to throw that away and restart the line several times?

 

[edited]that.

 

Moskva e.g.

 

there was only two ships in that line that I love + one that I like, the rest of the tree was crap, no way I will reset that line.

 

Now, I don't have plenty of  resources, I just have the enough to get by. But I have no problem to see them pile up forever.

 

I just don't get it.

Well, that's the way WG want to see: a player plays all the tiers over and over again, or pay for it. I respect the rule makers, and just trying to find the easiest way to regrind a line. Still, I don't get a clear answer for my question above, especially from any WG staffs  @WG @Sehales @MrConway @Crysantos

This. To make it short...

 

plus: I get to "revisit" some lines that I've played ages ago (e.g. IJN cruisers, USN DD's) that I wouldn't have touched if there wasn't some ... extra in it.

there's too little in it.

 

Colbert, Smolensk, tomato, tomato. isn't it?

For you apparently.

So? Imho Colbert creates the prettier rainbows due to more turrets and less guns per turret. 

 

I mean .... I have multiple US DD's that all play more or less similar to the Fletcher ... by your logic these also shouldn't be in the game ... tomato, tomato ... isn't it? 

 

 

After all: It's ok if you don't like that feature .... I do.

It's not about liking or disliking.

it's about understanding why

so.

you (you as in general you) grind through 10 tiers, 10 ships, you meet a lot of turds in the way/not suitable to your game style and at the end, you may like 2 or 3 ships in each tree and you throw all out the window for a ship. (in this case Colbert).

and you make that several times.

I just reached Moskva and I tell you it's never going anywhere but between Port and Battles.

Having to play those turds all over again, pls no. For a ship or two?

Without any guarantees that I'll see my Moskva again? Oh, no. 

At least with competitive play, you (you as in general you) would gain Flint or Black or other ships alike.

Flint it's different enough from Atlanta

and Black from the rest of other US DDs.

I can see the appeal in that.

But in what you all doing I only see high risk and no reward, especially if you (you as in...) don't have plenty of XP aside.

Fair enough.

 

From my side: 

 

- IJN CA's don't have any stinkers imho so ... little is lost. Same with the USN DD's or - as currently - the RU CA's.

- I get an interesting ship that suits my playstyle / super fun to play

- Don't care if a T10 ship is missing for a while since I don't play competetive (anymore)

- See this game general as: Grind for something .. so my T10 ships on average see very little use (outside of my two or three favourites), because: Why should I play e.g. the Yamato? Or the Moskva? I don't like their style but are through with the line.

 

For me in the end, I give up something I don't like (or not really miss once it's gone for a few patches until Im' done with the regrind), while I gain something to grind through (YAY) and in the end a ship that suits my playstyle ...

 

So pay one get double in return.

 

That's my motivation

 

On top I have literally TONS of signals and camos ... so to put things into perspective: The regrind from the Kirov (stock) to the Moskva (almost done with the Dim Don, only 40k XP left) took me less than 90 games .... quite possibly less if I would've used my special signals from the get go. Only used them on Chappa and Donskoi (and funnily enough: I grind through the Donskoi quicker than through the Schchors).

[luokailk]

GUYS, can you give me a clear answer of my posted question initially? Tx

Hi?

If you reset one branch of US cruisers, for example CA branch, for x2 bonus, and then wait and reset the other branch, CL branch, once x2 bonus become available again, you will have x2 bonus on both branches which means you will be able to collect 40k RP from those two branches. If you wait till you reset both lines and then start to research them again, you will need to grind T1 to T5 ships only once. Is that answer you are looking for?
