It's an ingame channel, PW "play4fun", made by Sturmtiger_304 (ingame searchfunction is REALLY picky with typing, so do it carefully)

To be fair, you didn't actually make it that clear.:Smile_hiding:

Forumites channel by Sturmtiger_304 was the most popular meeting place for forumites. If one asked here at forums for people to play with, he was in almost all cases directed to Forumites channel (PW: play4fun).

 

 

From sentence above I can see the channelname, who has made that channel and what the password is. Anyways, no need to start drama over this. Nothing personal, and good if it's more clear now.

Dunno how simple I must put it but here we go:

 

Channelname: Forumites

Made by: Sturmtiger_304   (as there are other channels with same name, but those are not the ones I was talking about)

Password to that channel: play4fun

 

 

If someone still has problems finding that channel, PM me ingame and I'll add you manually in.

Inazuma.
Her background was yellow.

 

She's been hardworking since the very beginning and never once backed down (also when sorties failed miserably she had the tendancy to come back in perfect condition, but despite that I refrained from nicknaming her Yukikazuma cause I don't think she'd have liked).

It was a good choice.

 

Spoiler

Besides I dropped Hibiki in the tutorial construction I think, so I always had someone to look after her everytime she overdid it.

I started off with Inazuma, I thought starter ships were all the same?

Once you pick one you can't get the others.

Spoiler

Of course I'm joking.

I just wanted to make you panic.

Fubuki has best base stats.

 

I don't play the game, but I would probably pick wither Fubuki or Inazuma.

Aren't there five starting DDs? Who were the other two? I can't remember.

 

For those interested in Murakumo, GOODSMILE company just announced a Nendoroid of her.

Sazanami and Samidare wI think. Er, Samidare or Suzukaze ? I think it was Samidare. I'll google it.

 

It's Samidare indeed.

Oh so Buki has the best stats.... nvm tho, her sister Miyuki is at Kai so.... but i dont use DDs as much....

I think Bucky has better stats than her sisters.

She's up there in terms of best DDs in the game.

You will probably find at some point that you will need to have a decent complement of DDs for certain maps or branching routes.

And here I am, giving advice like I actually play the game.:cap_book:

Thanks for that.

Yeah, neither of them register high on my 'awareness' meter, so I just plain forgot about them.

Pretty much everything I know is gleamed from either:

The Wiki.

The TV Tropes Page.

or

KyokoProStudios videos.

 

I wouldn't recommend the last one, though.

Bit of an acquired taste.

 

Did someone say Teste?

Don't worry. I hardly remember more than class leaders so I actually checked to be sure of what I was saying.

And I play the game like once every four or five months (or, more precisely, I only play whenever there's an event and never plays outside of event times) so it's not like I actually play the game.

Somehow the little part of my little amount of friends who play kancolle are all panicky whenever torpedo squadrons are involved for they usually build and train heavy battleships and aircraft carriers more. But back when I grinded I used to do the contrary and attempt to punch through a maximum of the maps with light forces, training high level light cruisers and destroyers and keeping my number of capital ships to a minimum - focusing on lighter ones too, such as fast battleships and light carriers.
I wonder if it's actually more common for the average player to chase and grind big heavy ships. I mean I don't see why i'd want Taiho and Shoukaku where I have a bunch of efficient CVLs. On the same fashion I can understand why people'd try to build Yamato, for the prestige and symbol and stuff, but sortie her ? Or Nagato ? Honestly I don't see the point, fast battleships like the Kongo class and Littorio do the job just fine when firepower's needed.

 

The one thing I do find a use to and that I didn't grind much are heavy cruisers. Then again they're versatile units and I've always liked specialization.

Yeah... that makes the fact that people would try to get their hands on Zuikaku even more mysterious to me, but, hey, whatever floats their shipgirls.

It's not that it's more common to grind big ships. As a matter of fact, it is more common not to grind big ships, as they generally are more usefull at low levels than DD and CL, and thus still get used more. This leads to them automaticly leveling up on their own. Where as DD and CL mostly get leveled only when you step out of your way to do it.

And leveling DD is a lot harder to do than BB or CV, as you risk having the BB and CV taking the MVP, thus really only leaving to spots to level DD's.

 

Also, if you do events on medium or hard, you WILL NEED ships like Shoukaku and Taihou, especially if you can get Shokaku and Zuikaku to Kai Ni.

And if you can spare the resources, the Yamatos can make events a lot less RNG dependent as they can hit firepower cap easier.

 

So, sure. There may be some prestige about it, but mostly it is just people wanting their waifu, or simply getting the ships with best stats or gear to better prepare for events.

Well the rest is quite clear but about that, DDs and CLs can hit MVPs rather easily when properly equipped when thrown in night battle. Sure, if you put a grouping of heavy carriers and battleships with a single DD it's likely the enemy may get obliterated before you can even enter night battles, but as long as day firepower remains moderate and you can therefore engage in night battle (or if the enemy is a boss that just won't be killed simply with a day battle), DDs and CLs usually take the win don't they ?

 

I mean when i used to play events seriously, the boss nodes' MVP was almost always a CL or a DD for me.

 

Othr than that I guess explanation about efficiency was clear enough. But then  again, if you play events in medium or hard you're gonna need trained DDs too won't you ? I mean, you'd need a bit of everything.
