I'm jumping around mostly because I want a lot of stuff. Helena in 5-1, Hornet in 5-3, Nelson in 5-4, Poi in 6-4 and Belfast gun in 6-2. I might go back in fox mines to get another Kaga so I can LB her.

[erneiz_hyde]

I legit only just now realized why 3-4 is called fox mines after being in there for half a year now. We're mining the foxes . I've always just called it farming 3-4.

[Kuroageha]

I'm on Saratoga mines currently.

[judasmartel]

Been in fox mines hell for about a month now, but contrary to what others are doing, I am actually trying to build a full USS fleet, which I found out to be actually pretty difficult to pull off as they still don't have yet the meta units like HMS has with Hood and QE. It's sad I am pretty much forced to form an HMS fleet, but eh, I guess I gotta make use of what I have.

I was just clearing some of my submarine missions and I get my third. I actually got my 2nd from the submarine mission, as well as my

1st of her

from a submarine mission, so I didn't really fox-mine much myself.

In the meantime, I can't find Isuzu, Yuudachi, the thunder twins, Maya, and any of the other stuff. But nooo, a third one here.

If only we can share our luck with each other
I actually got Yuudachi as I was clearing my way up the story. Maya I got from submarine missions. But no foxes in sight!

What I hate is how the fuel production bis lower than the fuel consumption, it locks me from keep going sigh.

Is there any way retreat fleet that is disconnected from battle because "heavy damage"? It throw me out of battle but it's still "in progress" so I can't attack with second fleet until I ruin my ships completely...

I'm pretty sure there is a retreat bubble on that spot if your fleet is unable to move but still on the map? It removes that party from the map.

Maintenance in 13 hours but the new event will drop 24 hours later. Seems like a grind heavy event looking at the details in the wiki. Definitely want Shoukaku and Zuikaku.

Talk about thirsty I am both scared and in love.

Doing well in Dyed in Red event. Got all the new ships in the build including Zuikaku. Really lucky considering her rate. Got her sister first and all the other ships in 40 cubes. And just got Zui today in the daily build mission. Guess I will buy the torp stick first. And will relax a bit in farming given that there's no need to buy Zui in the shop now. Though I could get her too if time and resources allow it for LB purposes. We'll see.

[serenade_beta]

The Western localization is really pushing through the updates. It looks like it really wants to catch up to the Japanese/Chinese version, which is a pretty good idea.
The pace still is surprising though.

I did okay with the Dye in Red pulls. Just... a lot of Hyuugas.

i got too much Ise though, well look like the ship's rarity/grade mostly depend on their achievement/fame in the history which Ise-class and Fusou-class is just Blue(Rare)-Grade, and despite is the same class Enterprise is SSR while Yorktown and Hornet is just Elite, also according to wiki Tirpitz is SSR while Bismarck is Legendary

I think these are the most commonly used?
Taihou and Essex only just was released, so their "evaluation" haven't really solidified. Hornet and Yorktown were also recently buffed.
You could try Essex if the Nagato + Akagi + Kaga "meta" team gets on your nerves, I guess.
Hiryuu/Souryuu is pretty much a cheaper version of Akagi + Kaga.

Unicorn is also an obvious choice, but she's a light carrier.

Spoiler for Summary of the CV suggestions:

I can agree with those first 4, but usually that Akagi + Kaga is for PVP (You can also use them in PVE, but not necessary.)

Centaur is mainly used for her double fighters, very useful in one of the Worlds (W12), same for Illustrious, but with shield.

For Essex, if you want to use her, you can pair her with either Enterprise or Saratoga for the yellow skill, her red skill is best utilised against BBs (Not BCs or BBVs). Her blue skill if I recall, is only viable in PVP and you need 4 USS ships.

Taihou can be used in PVE for her red skill, which gives you a plane gacha with 3 possibilities:
1.) Ryuusei - I don't know this one by the way. I didn't get this when I used her.
2.) Suisei - Wipe the right side of the map.
3.) Saiun - Literally one of the bad ones as it increases backline damage dealt by 10% when it launches and does nothing.

Souryuu and Hiryuu are substitutes to Akagi and Kaga yes (Please get Akagi and Kaga.), but Hiryuu has a special gimmick in one of her skills, which renders her invulnerable for some time.

Unicorn and Shouhou are must get as well since they have heals. Ranger is also good for her scramble and plane damage increase.

This is CV(L) only suggestions, but you should get a full picture as CVs don't determine the battles in PVEs (Especially when it comes to suicide boats.)

Rarity doesn't mean anything in this game for most of this game.

Some SRs and even SSRs are literally worse than Rs or even Ns.
To give an example from the AL EN side, Leander is a good boat when Kai because her yellow skill and smokescreen gives her some utility with the cruisers, then there is Shigure, with her skill being increase evasion by 30% at SL1, which doesn't really matter, since if the shell hits, it hits, and does not have any much utility with other ships. And not forgetting Warspite, while her skill is very useful against heavy armor enemies, but she has a distance based skill (In this case, she will shoot on the furthest ship, meaning very right side of the screen), so if the furthest ship is a suicide boat for example, she is going to shoot at that suicide boat and it is a wasted critical.

You should get Hyuuga though, her yellow skill is best used with the Battleships.

Some maps are best done manually, because they are hard, but at the moment on the English server, nothing much. Japanese server on the other hand...

But yes, just stick to expedition and rest area for levels.

[erneiz_hyde]

......Fucking got my second Maya. Still no foxes.

[Kuroageha]

I'm on the Poi mines.
Send help.

[Tenzen12]
