CLTs has put my BBs and CAs in despair.

Lol, no one in their right mind will underestimate CLT in Kancolle. Goddamn OP ships. Put BBs and CAs to shame in overall performance. Their battle prowess in morning and night ballet is really astounding.
*
But CLT can easily be distracted by SS. BB still shelling powerhouse. The problem is CA doesnt have any desirable attributes unlike BB whereby it allow ships to perform a 2nd shelling phase

But once converted, KTKM-sama, Ooi and Kiso are just too awesome...that I never leave home without them to event maps unless....Henderson-chan but still even if their opening torpedo is rendered useless/nullify they still boast a strong firepower at night as well. My god.
True, dat but still CLTs are so damn broken that's its unfair lol. I hate facing them in PVPs...they just totally wrecked my kanmusus before they even start the battle. Goddamnit. BBs only saving grace is their stronger firepower in day battle and their 2nd shelling phase but in night battle from the November event I have seen, CLT can actually put in the same amount of damage output of a BB with double attack equipment and has better evade than a BB which is a plus to prevent cut inss/crits.

Which is I don't even....I mean a double 46cm gun sometimes actually losses out to a double 20.3cm guns? Shit can't be serious....though yada yada, historically some say 46cm big guns can't aim so well in night battle.
*
which is why I say my CA is currently irrelevant for my fleet composition
DD and CL also perform quite well at night battles
I wish the dev does something that make me want to care abt my CA daughter ships

But if there's anything I would complain that would be torpedo sub in large quantities tend to aim for the same ship

but be reasonable, no experience teitoku would send a CLT to any long expedition. That what Tenryuu is here for.
In fact, the 40hour expedition requirements are 2CA 2DD

I have never send my CLT on such long expeditions....but nobody say you can't. The requirements are 2CA 2DD and the other 2 can be any ships....but there is no way in hell I will not use my CLT for such a long period of time...but this comics strip is funny....I guess different people got different interpretation of Kitakami....but one thing we are quite sure is that Ooi is a chronic lesbian...lol.

I'm just saying realistic terms but for the purpose of the manga, yes, Oochinium exists and another possible interpretation of KTKM's character

...but Verniy doesn't have any dialogue or characteristics that indicates anything about her being an idol. So, I'm also confuse. LOL.

Got elements of anime to not be moved into game section but still a game but also an anime based nevertheless....but well the anime isn't out yet...I don't think there is much harm discussing about the game aspects of the kancolle before the anime is out right? Also surprised there isn't much teitokus in here too. Then again the lottery system and vpn makes it hard to get in. I was pretty lucky to get admitted into with the rest of you fellow teitokus  blush.gif

QUOTE(dlwk1988 @ Jan 10 2014, 02:21 AM)
from my perspective there isnt. Yea the lottery was a lot of hassled, i thought i have to do the lottery everyday to get in, that will certainly put me off. i hope once the anime is out, it will attract more more teitokus here.
*
I guess I'm those lucky ones that got in on my first try twice, one for me and another for my friend. But recently, I heard it has been easier to get in as of late but on the other hand, we went from ~1.4mil in 26/12/13 (https://twitter.com/KanColle_STAFF/statuses/416008246004969472) to 1.5mil banner furniture (8/1/14 update)


QUOTE(FrostZero @ Jan 10 2014, 08:28 AM)
Wonder when will the next event start. Hopefully not so soon, as I'm totally broke from Christmas event.

On the anime, hope it'll be a good one. Really looking forward to it and the upcoming Vita game.
*
I hope its at least a month away to gather more material. Historically, every event is 3 months apart so February??? but the Christmas event may or maybe not alter that
Not sure how but the anime could go 2 ways, Strike Witch way or slice of life like in some anthologies and manga.
Not comment on the Vita game thou >.<"

What paid VPN software are you using by the way? I am currently still using the Softether VPN. If the fees are reasonable might want to get a secure paid vpn too.

I using not using a commercial VPN but borrow a server that happens to have a JP IP address. The only thing that I'm getting out of this is that I'm the only person using the IP at any given time

I would prefer Strike Witches style as well. Since I burned all my resources to beat E-2 last week (had barely 3k resources when starting the event), now I'm working hard to restock. But pretty slow though since I still lack of the 4th fleet (thanks Kongou for avoiding me for whole month at 3-2-A), so a month away will be good. Plus need to grind my Hiei, KTKM, Ooi, and Yuudachi to kai-ni.

Also, seems there are a lot of 4-koma pages being posted here and I never see them before. I read the 4-koma somewhere but those pages here are something I never see before. Where did you guys get them from?
*
Your first Kongou is always hard to find after that, she rains non stop.
Most of my images are doujin fanmade works on pixiv

QUOTE(Senjou @ Jan 10 2014, 11:12 AM)
The difference is that we are sharing IP address with other people as well, I think. I am too exactly sure about whether they assign us different IP address or the same one whenever I am using Softether. Anyone who is familiar with networking or Softether can probably shed a light on this.

But seeing how many people are actually using Softether....very likely we are sharing the same IP address.
But is it a paid vpn software or a free version? If free version, very nice and jelly much....I must not be looking hard enough ><.
*
The internet is running out of IPv4 address and it expensive to give everyone a dedicated IP when exiting from a VPN tunnel.
Even some paid vpn are shared IP but it depends on the use case. Most of the time, it is not a necessity to have dedicated IP. Hence why this practice.
Not entire sure on how softether operates. But generally, it shouldnt be an issue but when a general service is use by many for a specific reason than the operator on the other side would think something malicious is happening becuz a lot of traffic is coming from one source.

Its not a VPN software in and of itself. I'm only route my traffic by tunneling to the server thru proxy connection on the browser

Well they did mentioned on twitter they wanted to cut down on multiple account users based on one of their recent twitter tweets.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

....so as they can't possibly identify multiple accounts without getting false positives, like VPN users or people sharing the same internet connection. So, yes having a dedicated IP is a plus.
*
Which would be a problem since IPv4 is getting scarce that Streamyx users 1Mbps or below as well as some mobile broadband providers are behind a NAT
Not sure on JP situation but I won't be surpise if that happens since many ISP are using this method to extend the life of IPv4 while we're transitioning to IPv6
On the other hand, I'm not sure what are the triggering mechanism used by DMM to catch those ppl playing the game on their smartphones

Another point to Inazuma biggrin.gif
Try your beginner's luck in crafting but don't craft until you're bankrupt
yes, flagship dont sink but later on you will find Destroyers are not strong and you'll swap them out for other ships

As dlwk1988, read the wiki and unlock your 2nd fleet to do expeditions

QUOTE(dlwk1988 @ Jan 11 2014, 10:51 PM)
welcome fellow teitoku~ my suggestion is try to unlock your fleets asap so you can do expeditions to get resources. try to get CV or BB asap, and most importantly, love your daugtherships.
you scrapped yours?  whistling.gif  haha..mine is Fubuki (the main character) now shes being use in expedition though...i hardly see any1 will put DD's in their main fleet .

Not sure whats the max cap for luck becuz up til now, I haven't be able to craft a maruyu or Zun ship

QUOTE(Senjou @ Jan 12 2014, 01:32 PM)
Have you tried having a CL(CLT doesn't count as light cruisers, just remember) with a full fleet of destroyers? Make sure you ticked the right quest also. I can't exactly remember how I completed the quest(so long ago) but I followed the quest page in wiki as well. Try retracing your steps a bit and see what you maybe missing.
*
I dont think anyone that just got into the game would have CLT right off the bat. KTKM/Ooi is CL until her lvl10 remodel.

Neo|ofGeo silly question, did you activate the quest?

I wouldn't be so sure lol. Some lucky beginner admiral got Nagato right off the bat.  I tried crafting Nagato but all I only get are Mutsus. Goddamn it lol

Finally, I only got my Nagato from the gruesome November event E-5 boss after countless farming for Yahagi(which she never dropped for me even after 5 days straight of constant farm.)
*
I was implying that new players that are unfamilar with tgame might not yet remodel their CL to CLT.
I'll be honest, I'm not interested in Yahagi and still doesnt get it why was she harder to get in Nov event than Musashi

The /2 unlock itself when i relog just now
hurmm weird indeed though but nevermind that

i read in wiki you can play without VPN through API links
can someone confirm this is a safe way?
i scare ban doh.gif
*
As of now, I think its best not to play with VPN becuz it might be mislabel as multi account users as many are using the same free VPN solution.
While I can't determine whether it safer or not becuz all are all technically violating DMM's terms of use, but I been playing without VPN since day 1.

side note: Warning to all teitokus to not to reveal your API link or else you become the next Abrar (aka bad things will happen to your daughters)

After that incident, everyone in /jp/ kancolle knows Abrar.
Yes, there are case where ppl's fleet got scrapped but have you notice how troublesome it is to even scrap one ship, let alone the entire fleet
dlwk1988 Keep poking your ships in the main page, some like it while some dont

Neo|ofGeo Battleship are far more powerful than your DD/CL. so you could bring them to battle if you think you can fuel them. Plus, BB allows your fleet to do double shelling during a battle

should i focus to counter attack those or try to get a carrier myself?

My memory is failing me becuz I can't quite remember what did I do b4 world 2-4. It was a difficult roadblock for me to overcome
Maybe my advice is try your ship crafting luck since low level maps dont quite drop those rare ships at first
and use what you have since you might need to swap them out for another ship, maybe due to fatigue or damage

Also, don't be afraid to use those instant repairs with hour long repairs on BB

Yes, there will be a server maintenance for tomoro. Hopefully, its just a small one and wont take too long

As Senjou point, check the Expedition section of the wiki to be sure that your fleet fulfill the minimum requirements (flagship's level, fleet size and fleet composition). Also remember to resupply your ships or else it will fail as well

QUOTE(Senjou @ Jan 14 2014, 01:25 PM)
You need to follow the minimum requirements such as your flagship level, fleet size and combination requirement for your expeditions to be 100% success.

If all ships have high morale (i.e. they are sparkling) it is possible to achieve great success, granting you 50% more resources, double experience, and may have a greater chance of receiving item rewards as well.

Here check out this english wiki page to understand what I am saying. You will never fail an expedition again. Check the conditions section posted by anons who tried out combinations that work and posted.
http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Expedition

Ah, Houshou huh.... =3=

She may be weak since she is quite an old aircraft carrier but I too still loved her regardless. She also consumes little resources compared to all the other carriers as well...very good to use as your support carrier in your fleet but at the same time don't want to consume too much resources.

Speaking of great success. Here a chart between sparkle and not sparkle fleet

As nazrul90 said, the bauxite queen is a just a title. Just like Naka-chan's reputation

You consume the most bauxite when you have a disadvantage over air dominance (ex, lack of air superiority or enemy has a lot of AA guns) and your planes gets shot down
Funnily, Kaga can carry the most planes and is slightly higher fuel/ammo consumption than Akagi tongue.gif

is it a good idea? :v

If you say throwing hate money to get materials, hell no. Even the game dev discourages that. (In fact, teitokus in general actually spend less $ than other JP flash/mobile games)
The only things worth buying are dock extension and increase max ship slot
Since we are technically violating DMM's ToS, they have the right to ban or restrict our access anytime they want.
So the question is, how much do you love your girls enough to throw your hate money?

how do you leak an API link? people actually hack these things? are simply he is being careless with his API link? bold part , japan never cease to amaze me  tongue.gif  source from 4chan?

true, Akagi and Kaga' consumption rate are only very little to neglectable when you know how to farm for materials

becuz Houshou is the senior, gentle and humble type? rolleyes.gif

From what I understand, he thinks his API could be seen in a 3month old screenshot but not 100% sure thou.. He saw it resource dropping, ship padlock unlocked and disappearing and during the act, he login DMM to reset his API
yes, source is 4ch
