Screw the math, took me 110 builds to get all event-ships so far...

Azur Lane's plot is getting convoluted as hell. Every new event adds more plot points and unanswered questions than it explains and on top of that they went with the multi-reality/dimension garbage with the Shinano.

This whole thing with the Ashes being divided is promising but I hope we're getting more OpSi story next.

 

I agree. We just got hit by the NP event with their research facility (which showed that humans researched the cubes) and now we got 3 more characters in the Meta Stuff, of which two appear to have hold to their "senses" as "wanderers"

Ever since the first appearence of the Ashes, it was clear that multiverse is a thing. I just hope it'll stay at one multiverse, from which all the other ships come from.

 

I just hope they'll one day make it clear in which order the event story has to be viewed.

at this point I actually doubt they have a finished plot in their minds. The main story remains as empty as it always was and these events are not helping clarify anything. Been kinda long since I didn't skip any stories and tried to unlock the memories.

 

Considering the amount of ships still to be added and therefor the long life this game still has to offer, I'd be surprised if the game has an entirely planned out story.

I'd just wish there would be somewhat of a more consistency.

 

The main story is a deadend tbh. Since it's attached to the real pacific war, there nothing they could really do execpt making the maps even more insane with the plan spam.

It's not right.

 

I realised while having a shower last night what I had actually calculated was the chances of getting three Ty's in a row 140 times. Which is so wrong as to be laughable to an actual statistician.

Uhh, I think the actual calculation would be something like (1-(0.995^140))^3=(1-0.496)^3=0.504^3=0.128 so 12.8% which is actually higher than the 2.89% chance of not getting Archerfish. Ofc, I'm still not entirely certain if that calculation is correct or still stupidly wrong.

 

But considering Ty still has a lower drop rate, it still should be easier to pull an Archerfish out of 140 pulls instead of 3 Tys.

But nevermind, I got one Archerfish today, so I can stop building the event pool.

True, but I wish they gave it some life. You don't see any cutscenes after like, 3-4. The most of the "Main Story" ironically lacks a story and that part is the only place they can actually have a consistent story.

[Marblehead_1]

I got all characters beyond New Jersey which I will try to get but I'm afraid that after 121 builds I still can need 200 builds treshold. Anyway her design didn't appeal to me as same as her skin but her power is main factor for me to get her. Max dev level requirements of Blueprints for FDG and other DR ships are just poor joke.

[Panocek]

Kinda forgot of this thread existence.

 

AL wise, I've managed to snatch all ships sans Ticonderoga within 90 builds, including three Archerfishes

Besides that, I've picked up Honkai Impact 3rd out of boredom, thanks to randomly stumbling on one of their animated shorts and Genshin being drier than a drywall in terms of content. And story I find to be actually good in Honkai

Problem is: This story will make the main market the antagonists. No matter the cutscenes: The IJN would be the "bad guys" and always lose.

That's why I think a Op-Si similar stuff, but with the crimson axis could be something as a replacement of the "story"

According to the Just3c, the NJ is the best boss BB ingame now.

Now I just need to start saving up coins so I can actually limit break her.

Cool, someone else posted that for a change.

 

A brief summary:

NJ is better than FdG. She can push USN into "Master-of-all" territory.

Ticonderoga is killer at dealing with light armour, also first USN carrier with single-target focus. Top-tier.

San Fran can either be top-tier damage dealer or top-tier tank, but in middle slot is rubbish.

Archerfish can get USN subs to compete with KM subs.

Boise is good for low-level farming.

Morrison is not particularly good, but lethal vs subs, so recommended to level her just in case we get any nasty sub bosses (I'm going to be levelling her anyway, and you guys should know the reason by now).

Independance Retrofit gets an increased number of aircraft, which is a huge buff. Also, she gets Casablanca's supporting wings skill.

Little E gets double airstrike damage at 33% proc chance (compared to 25% on Assault Carrier). Adult self still better, though.

Grats...speaking up saving on coins, I blew mine on Indi retrofit...

Zitat

NJ is better than FdG. She can push USN into "Master-of-all" territory.

Which for me raises the question in terms of UR blueprints: How much of a priority is FdG now compared to the other two UR PR ships like Azuma and Drake?

For me, she's always been bottom priority. Hence why Azuma is already max devlvl and Drake is already devlvl20 (FdG is devlvl22).

FdG is still a strong ship and you can never have too many of a good thing, but NJ has powercrept her and is easier to max out in comparison and has just all-round better ships to use with her in an all-one-faction fleet. So, unless you're a particularly fervent wehraboo (or have a thing for mothers), I'd say that FdG is fairly low priority now.

No I am not and that was my line of thought too. In terms of UR BPs I still have my hands full with both Azuma and Drake and tbh I'm not a huge fan of FdGs character design either, so her now being surpassed by NJ is fine with me. Esp. since I do have the necessary bulins to max-break her + in terms of min/max-ing Iron Blood is way weaker than Eagle Union as a faction. Heck, I don't like the design of most IB capital ships, so even w/o taking OpSiren or Stage 12+ into account I'd rather field a EU or RN faction fleet anyway.

Just a quickie update with my Touhou Lost Word peeps:

Well, the Scarlet Maid event is something, huh? All of my resource woes disappeared once I started griding this event. The "X" books for levelling up skills have been a big efficiency boost, too.

Also, how is everyone's Kourindou Roulette luck going? We're on like the 5th day and I've had nothing but free 10 pulls. Good news, though: I have read that if you don't get the free 100 pulls in the first 9 days, you are garanteed to get it on the final 10th day. That's...a lot of free pulls on the gacha. So far my free pulls have actually gifted me a bunch of new characters - Sunny Milk, Luna Child, Chen and Patchouli Knowledge. Plus Lily White who I got on a spur-of-the-moment 10 pull before the event started and I'm up to 12 characters - enough to split up into three groups of four for the errands. No duplicates, but it's only a matter of time (and would be quite welcome, paper dolls are really hard to come by).

Indeed. TH:LW generally seems fairly generous with resources. Even premium currency regularly appears in limited expeditions.

Would explain why they're so stingy with rolls and map drops.

 

Only got 20 rolls once, all 10 otherwise.

[Zemeritt]

So today my second Tico dropped off D3

After failing to build her (usually the 0,5% builds drop reliable) getting her twice while farming points is rather amusing.

 

And the mysterious oath skin is:

Rodney, as expected:

This is a really well done skin.

Helena META looks amazing.

Ark skin was already posted here

Azuma is also ice.

The silouette is Rodney. Just give that girl a retrofit or something (I know there are plenty of other ships also in need of a retro)

Can't say what the collab is about tho.

Meaning this is either Nelson or Rodney's oath skin.

I'm leaning more towards Rodney, but it's still possible to be Nelson who let her hair down.

I got 20 rolls on Saturday (got Medicine Melancholy) and my free 100 rolls today got me...four duplicates: Reimu, Lily White, Sakuya and Luna Child. Not that I mind, as at least I can use dupes for limit breaking (apart from the Reimu dupe, as my Reimu is already max lmb, so I just exchanged her for tokens).

[Khaba_Gandalf]

After getting all ships from the event I switched to 3 daily pulls from the wishing well, cause I still miss U-81...

 

...today I f*cked up and went for 3 builds followed by 7 (hoping to get her before the event ends). Stupid/coffee-starved me build 7 event pulls instead of wishing well pulls. Guess which ship I got again. Yes, another NJ and nothing else. Not that I already raised her to max level... *facepalm*

 

Rodney skin is super cute btw

Btw, the event has been extended to next week. It'll now end on the 16th.

Thank the chinese students for this.

Huh...

I don't know about anyone else, but I don't really need to continue the event any longer than it's already been going. I already have all of the stuff from the exchange I need.

Guess I could save up to get all of the gear skin boxes...

Yep, 3 weeks for an event is pretty long.

Maybe they also need some more time for the next thing after this event.

On this wondrous day, when I managed to get enough UR blueprints together to complete my second Wyvern, Just3c also uploaded a general gear guide to help us sort the wheat from the chaff.

Gear Guide June 2021 (18:27)

 

I was honestly surprised at the number of equipment that was actually good, which I had been sleeping on.

One particular piece of information we might need to know is that there are a couple of gear dev lab AA guns that are good for increasing your AA's ROF due to their fast reload.
