[BOATY] Shaka_D Alpha Tester, Players, In AlfaTesters, Weekend Tester 3,691 posts 15,960 battles Report post #1 Posted September 17, 2021 Just curious. Feels like the calm before the storm while we wait for things to go live so was wondering how people plan to go about the ploughing of their container fields. All SC's one after the other or a slower more patient approach by mixing it up a little between the tiers to make the thrill last a bit longer? For me, I reckon I'll be doing a tier 10, then maybe a 9 and 8 and then back up again. Lower tiers come later. Last year it was all about the SC's first, but think I'll be drawing it out more. I'm keen to see how others will be going about it, or even if it really doesn't bother them. Coop or randoms too? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[NWP] Ubertron_X [NWP] Beta Tester 2,657 posts 25,762 battles Report post #3 Posted September 17, 2021 The couple of ships that I currently actively use for captain training will see action as usual, aka will earn their snowflakes in random battles, everything else including most T10s will take a short detour through co-op, preferrably while also grinding for some dockyard missions. When doing co-op grinds I usually start at T10 (recording the results) and then work my way down to T5. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[-TPF-] invicta2012 Players 6,382 posts 26,855 battles Report post #4 Posted September 17, 2021 It's Narai week, so at the moment I've got village-bunting-edition Eendracht and Frankie. C. to grind through (all the flags, all the time). The Snowflakes/Container Fields/whatevs will be done as a diversion from that and as a contribution to the DZP grind (39,000,000 potential damage, indeed). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[RUMR] BuryWest Players 9 posts 15,672 battles Report post #8 Posted September 17, 2021 I will play in randoms all ships 5-9 tier where the grind to T10 is not completed to use the +200XP bonus for the grind. The others will be in coop to farm the rewards. Something to be considered is playing on randoms for Free XP farm because of the +200XP bonus for first win. Free XP is based on percentage from the base XP (after midifiers), so with free xp flags and camos you can earn some good amount. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SINT] Jvd2000 Players 1,639 posts 31,173 battles Report post #10 Posted September 17, 2021 T10’s first ( just too curious about all the detonation flags I am bound to receive) and then T5’s and up. So that when the last phase of missions for the DY starts I have more efficient high tiers ships available. Really not looking forward to those slow T5 BB’s and those Kongo clones. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[VIBES] tocqueville8 Players 3,717 posts 39,413 battles Report post #11 Posted September 17, 2021 I'm going to play Randoms on anything with at least a 10 point captain, Co-op for the rest. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Camperdown Players 2,501 posts 17,258 battles Report post #17 Posted September 17, 2021 I'll start with T10 and T7 (Narai). After that I'll blow off a couple per day in order to stay sane (over a 100 ships). Mostly coop, unless I like a ship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not whinging though - coal, steel, and maybe doubloons are all useful, if I get lucky (plus, of course, plenty of ramming flags). After that, it'll be a mixture of working down the tiers in Coop, and doing stuff for missions at the same time (plus a bit of Narai for fun, not to mention knocking off T7 snowflakes). 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[-TAP-] Pandafaust Players 755 posts 10,484 battles Report post #20 Posted September 17, 2021 I'm only intending on knocking the tokens off my tier 10s for this event - doing the ships which I don't feel like taking into randoms through co-op instead, and then the remainder will get a random outing.

Sometimes it's so hard to decide which ship to play, I'd like a 'Random Ship' button to be added to the Port view. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
