If I scrap my Mogador as soon as I get her, will it increase the chance that I drop her again? In general does this work for temporary drops?
>>
>>50084363
~In general~, yes. HOWEVER, occasionally individual ships have a tracker to prevent you repeatedly scrapping and farming them for their gear. And of course, the only way to find out which type Mog is is through practical experimentation. Do you feel lucky?
>>
>>50084371
I'll take my chances. Her guns are too sexy
>>
>>50084386
OK, but if you end up like the guy who scrapped his Johnston then did 1000 sorties without a second dropping, don't say I didn't warn you.

The *only* guns that valuable are model D K3, otherwise optimizing damage on DDs uses toros.
>>
>>50084755
scrapping aside, won't these help my high FP DDs be useful at daytime? like yuudachi/ ayanami & co. I'm new and don't have any good small guns
>>
>>50084794
DD daytime firepower doesn't matter. Any regular map can be easily beat by equipping them with duck guns, events are where you need different equipment.
DDs are for AA, ASW, and night damage. A couple points of FP won't increase night damage nearly as much as switching to using a cut in.

If you're new, you need 4 slot destroyers, so just keep her and do quests to unlock rewards and other drops, including the guns that get bonus damage on the strong destroyers. Like the other post said, those guns won't matter much, and the high armor bosses get torpedoes.

Why
It is one of the better rewards this year.

>>50087721
Why? I tried ranking in July.
>>
when you think about it the only time you use guns on destroyers are for aa cut ins, the special d kai cut in, and da+double wg combo against installations.
>>
>>50088579
Double attack is kills almost anything on regular maps and has 99% reliability. Even in events it can be useful for chipping or if the historical bonus is high enough. Still not worth upgrading guns for damage though.
>>
>>50088579
Add in imps
But you've basically summed up the role of destroyers, you aren't expecting them to blow up battleships during the day.
>>
>>50086627
>>
>>50088607
anything you're using da setups on can be cleared with common equipment. there's no need to farm for rare destroyer guns.
>>
>>50088676
That's literally what I said, I was just pointing out that there are other cases where you use (common) DD guns.

Figure out what you're likely to use on hard bosses (old zekamashi event comps are full of examples) and upgrade that to levels you can afford. Battleship guns are often +1 candidates, and the best seaplane fighters can increase your maximum possible air power when maxed. 12cm30 kai ni rockets are also good upgrade targets.

these pumpkin quests were designed to be as frustrating as possible. I have to waste tons of development materials each week to craft dive bombers and then the rewards have development materials and bauxite as things you pass over for the pumpkins. to make it worse at some point I'm going to have to build 12 more dive bombers because the ones for the weekly quest don't count as being scrapped for the one time quest.

Not Kai specifically, but the chance of getting bonus HP when using them for modernization is theorized to be 26+(0.35*the sum of both kaibokan's levels)%

Of course they drop frequently enough at this point it's probably faster to farm more onaholes to roll the ~1/4 chance than to level them,

It got released, but I'm not sure you can fairly say it was ever alive. So many parts of the game didn't work properly (if they even worked at all) and there didn't seem to be any thought put into gameplay variety. Imagine KC with no class-based routing or anti-installation, every ship can attack subs, and a single CV is enough to guarantee AS+ at every node.

Yeah sounds like just a desperate attempt at releasing the thing and be done with the whole ordeal.

Torp command I guess, unless you are low on protopults.

Torp squad gear, regardless if you already have one or not.

The plane has barely any anti air resistance so it is not really used that often. It also can be obtained from upgrading Suisei 12A you really want to complete the equipdex.

Finally, there are enough Catapults you can obtain from current quests for the more important ships needing it for their remodels.
Quests are B152, B154, F21, F23, F85 and BY10 (also B177 if you don't need the Prototype Type 97). That's 6-7 Catapults, which are enough for Akagi, Kaga, Ise, Hyuuga, and then some leftovers for either Shoukaku, Zuikaku, Saratoga or Ryuuhou.
Just skip the benchwarmers until you get extra catapults over time as remodeling those ships is mostly for kandaidex purpose alone: (Houshou, Taiyou, Shinyou, Unyou, Gambier Bay are really not that great, and I'd argue Gotland Andra is too gimmicky to even bother spending a catapult on her).

Can't believe >>49630377 is coming true.

We're finally getting Enterprise! (and Emerald)

Ok, that rules out the IJN and the US Navy.
Scharnhorst and Gneisenau? (one can dream, come on.)

This is what my mind always first jumps to whenever the term 'sisters' or 'twins' are mentioned in a naval context. Unfortunately we all know there're higher odds of kanmusu and abyssals becoming real than a new kriegsmarine ship being added to the game.

Kraut ships, so definitely not happening. Also
>Very hard to guess.
100% sure that's some obscure bong dd/cls.

Hopefully the event won't be utter dogshit like the last few.

>>50130784
If it is a pair of krauts, I wouldn't expect anything bigger than Leipzigs.
>>
>>50131079
I expect it to be even worse
