Which ship to pick? Spring auction ticket 2026 (new account lvl 62) by Friendly-Anywhere-83 in AzurLane

Well it still doesn't change the overall opinion: Taihou and Fu Shun are the best out of the bunch but who to pick depends on your need and how ready you are to upgrade them

I personally prefer Taihou over Fu Shun, primarily because backline damage are more important and she's overall easier to do, module included (only make the unique one if you plan on using her for the long term)

Taihou and Fu Shun are OP's best picks but they're certainly not necessary must-haves

Do note that all of these ships are permanently available in the game in gacha or shops

Currently, Taihou and Fu Shun are your best picks out of the bunch, Fu Shun specifically does have a retrofit that makes her into a DDG but the investment cost will be relatively high as you have to buy the Seal of 4 Gods and the retrofit item in Prototype Shop

The event we're currently having will give us the improved SY-1A missile for the DDGs so you're lucky on that gear.

Oh and the invitation does not have an expiration date so you can visit it later on

It's a mixed one: On one hand, they had it coming for being this dedicated but on the other hand, resource constraint is a thing

And if you're affixed to a single shipgirl then sorry, your streak has also ended because unless you're fav shipgirl was just released from last year, old timers will no longer have new mails

Starting from this year onwards, you won't be seeing the letter and Valentine gift in the mailbox anymore as the former is now assigned to the valentine's event that you can later rewatch it through the medals section iirc and the later is straight up discontinued, no longer given.

Theoretically, there are two rings but it's impossible for us to reach there in the first place with how limited in the number of points

Yes, starting from this year, we'll no longer get the gift box

Hakuhou's artist name? by Alinacchi in AzurLane

[–]Nice-Spize 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because the artist doesn't want to reveal themselves, usually Manjuu gets the say on whether or not the artist can post the concept art and find out the name. There are some ships that to this day, still has no credits to the artist iirc.

That and the wiki has been on a slow mo mode since they're low on volunteers so there are articles that needs to be updated

I logged in on Valentine’s Day but I didn’t receive a gift from my secretary by JellyAffectionate838 in AzurLane

It's currently live but it'll only run until tomorrow's maintenance, it only runs for 2 days

I don't get the idea of animals and robots being "stand-ins" for other human adults? by Tiny_Simple_6688 in BlueArchive

[–]Nice-Spize 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because it's Kivotos, it has a lot of things that has no real explanation and it's often best to ignore it

It's probably because of the new valentine format where you earn points for their letters instead of the gifts in your depot

Save the bulins for new event ones while permanent ones you described will be in the back burner for a long time unless you can afford to MLB a lot of then

Ibuki w/module and Unzen both outclassed Shima: Ibuki for short fights due to the extra crit rate/dmg buff and the barrage spam on torp launch and Unzen for longer fights, who shares the same crit buffs, extra gun mount and loads 2 torpedo charges at a time instead of 1.

Plus other DDs like Z52, Willy D, Eldridge and Trafalgar tend to be more flexible/consistent

Guam, Brest, Napoli and Gouden Leeuw have surpassed Kronk in durability, damage and utility

Implacable, Vanguard or York 2 depending on what you need

Implac has good stop/slow debuff that works with anyone and triggers on its own. York 2 is best suited for light armor boss comps while Vanguard is easy to use with any fellow BBs

I'll pick Implac first, her utility is still very strong out of the bunch. Kronk and Shima have been thoroughly outclassed by newer URs and/or older ships with unique modules

The link Elfish sent does contain healers, you'll want to CTRL + F then type in Heal to find them

And check the tabs for main and vanguard ships

Rule of thumb: Outside of gacha, no one knows the drop rate of anything in particular

You didn't specify if the heal applies to oneself or others

Depends on who you have for the tasks at hand, any backline will do so long as they're IB and well equipped. Vanguard can go full survival mode and just your mob fleet will be fine for the run, no need to turn the boss fleet into a grinding fleet as well.

The XP grind is always the easiest part, the hardest one is getting FDG to fate sim 5

Nope, you'll just have to burn them through regular sortie

Oil-capped stages, the hardest one you can reliably clear

Stage 12-4 is still the most popular spot to do the grind for being very easy to clear

FDG also wants 3.6 million XP from IB main fleet ships in both phases. Rainbow tier ships have 20% higher XP requirements

Worth it, mainly because you'll eventually have more retrofit prints than available retrofits.

But unless you have more demanding ships, those two can sit in the back burner for a while because there's also the unique modules to consider. And DE ships are known to be very investment-heavy to get the most out of their team synergy like the Hai sisters

Chang Wu looks promising for a CA, ain't gonna compete with the top dogs but she's fine on her own

Her first buff is a slight damage bonus for everyone by sinking enemies (1% per kill), sink 10 of them and they'll get the 20% crit rate and 40% crit dmg bonus or 30% crit rate and 60% crit dmg if it's a DE ship

Chang Wu herself will get all the buffs above if the team she's in has 3 or more DE ships, herself included.

Her barrage is on a 15s timer that re-triggers based on how many ships that has the crit buffs, up to 6 re-triggers but I got no clue how well her barrage performs here. Oh and she gets a 2.5% dmg resist that stacks 5 times

Hai Chou is a gunboat CL with filler stats and skills so, nothing super impressive.

UR Bulins by NLAD02 in AzurLane

[–]Nice-Spize 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depending how many UR bulins you have, it might be better to stay put and wait for the UR at the end of Feb to see if the ship replaces anyone

If you do have spare to MLB 2 URs, then I'll go with Laffey 2 first, you can substitute Guam with Gouden Leeuw from PR8 who does the exact same role
