>event start in week or two>South Dakota and Victorious are added to limited drop I know i shouldn't but i don't have them
Sazanami my beloved.
Fuck, the B25 quest actually consumes pumpkins.
Where are my rewards fatman?
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?
>>50084371I'll take my chances. Her guns are too sexy
>>50084386OK, 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.
Fubuki is cute.
>T500 reward this month is the Hs293 instead of the Fritz-Xdid Tanaka show mercy because he knew I failed ranking?
>>50084386>Scrapping Mogador>For guns The *only* guns that valuable are model D K3, otherwise optimizing damage on DDs uses toros.
>>50084755scrapping 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
>>50084794DD 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.
>>50086012kon kon~
Wow C2 finally made a real website https://c2praparat.com/
>>50084794If 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.
>>50087260>>50085574thx that makes sense
Wood
I ranked in august. Feel free to laugh at my face.
>>50087657Would
>>50087721WhyIt is one of the better rewards this year.
>>50087721Why? 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.
>>50088579Double 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.
>>50088579Add in impsBut you've basically summed up the role of destroyers, you aren't expecting them to blow up battleships during the day.
>>50086627
>>50088607anything you're using da setups on can be cleared with common equipment. there's no need to farm for rare destroyer guns.
>>50088676That's literally what I said, I was just pointing out that there are other cases where you use (common) DD guns.
ok what node can I farm for cruiser guns and dive bombers?
>>50091694>cruiser guns2-2, B node
Got Victorious after 10 runs, not bad
>>50091790am I supposed to cycle through a ton of different ships? it's only one node so I run out of morale super fast.
>>50092217The opening strikes of aircraft carriers don't rely on morale, so you put in 5 carriers loaded with attack planes and cutins, and cycle through fresh submarine tanks that have an opening torpedo.

More useless guns!

Who here wants to fuck Ushio's tits?
>>50096583Only if I've put a baby in her first.
Would you a frog?
I got enough cruiser guns for the week but now where do I get 7 more dive bombers?
>>50097282She needs to lose the towel first.First rule of sauna club. No towels.
>>50097332Equipment crafting with one of the dragon CVs & 20 baux
Should I upgrade as many equipment as I can to at least level 1, or focus on just one and get it to max level?
>>50097504I think the most important use for screws now is upgrading equipment into new shit. some of them cost so many screws that upgrading just for stars is a luxury.

>>50097610Terrible selection of boats

Festival dayo~
>>50097968>Heatstroke in a saunaI was surprised by this meme at first, then I remembered that they also whine about how hot 30°C weather is.
>>50101251
>>50097610Based thumbs up minnie cg
>>50097504Figure 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.
>>50097282maybe
>>50102658...continue

I haven't played since 2019, has zeco's art gotten more tolerable?
What's the best map to farm cvs for type99 dbs?
>>50102796She needs it for the "mission" with me that Asashio mentioned.>>50106653That's a lot of gumos.
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.
Is there a point to leveling Kaiboukan to Kai before using them for modernization fodder?
>>50108330the guns
>>50108330Not 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,
Sorry for being a filthy tourist but I played KC a long time ago but I wanted to go back and make a girlboat game inspired by KC.Are the KC devs still hostile towards fan games or girlboat adjacent games?
>>50110719All i know is that there was EN game heavly inspired by KanColle called "Victory Belles. It died recently and had a lot of troubles during development but there wasn't any action taken against it by KC devs or Kadokawa
>>50109130What is it with shipgirls groping each other when visiting festivals?
>>50111110>Victory Belles. It died recentlyDid it ever live?That said, there was a shitton of boatgirl games, as far as i know Zecos stuff was the first.
>>50111251>Did it ever live?Visited their website, apparently the mobage got EoS'd last week.>February 22nd, 2023 – October 1st, 2025
>>50111251It spent most of its years in development hell after a successful Kickstarter campaign, then it got released years later and got put in maintenance mode like 2 months later.
Not doing my best this week.
>>50111988>Chihaya>Not a flattopJMSDF are you even trying?
>>50111801>>50111835It 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.
>>50112102Yeah sounds like just a desperate attempt at releasing the thing and be done with the whole ordeal.
>>50111988Is this the first time that they made a girl for the JMSDF that didn't share a name with one in kancolle?>>50112002I chuckled.
I miss Phase 1's 1-5, that map was peak
Houshou, what are you doing here?
>>50112810Where's that from?
>>50112810Wild potato jumpscare>>50113047Watari-kun no xx ga Houkai Sunzen
>>50113047Watari-kun's ****** Is About to Collapse, episode 14 apparently.https://x.com/kotamatchan/status/1974476562297930221>>50113062Pretty crazy, we also have a weird horse Iowa in Umamusume.
>>50112810They even got the color of her kimono too. Combined with that hairstyle that's where it goes from accidental to intentional. Someone on staff likes KC I guess.Unlike the time where Ito-en changed the mascot of their green tea to a girl that had a striking resemblance to Houshou. That one was accidental.
>>50113094Definitely, a big Houshou fan was sitting on the director's chair during that episode. I remember some other anime also had two minor characters that were identical to Akagi and Kaga a few years ago but I don't remember the name.
>>50112810welcome to 4 years ago, and please don't read tonikaku cawaii if you don't want to find an atlanta clone.

When are pumpkins over?Isn't there an event and fish soon?
>>50117931Event is supposed to be sometime later this month after the https update, pumpkins will run alongside event.Saury in late November.
>>50117942>Saury in late November.Wait, is fishing overlapping with the new event. or is it right after it?
>it's time for some development quest clean up, what could go wrong>...Uhhh, how are you supposed to do F127 when night crew members are one time event reward
>>50120270You go back in time and clear E5H.
>>50120301No way, that map was hell.But I'm surprised they haven't made more available recently, even in the last event.
>>50121014Night murata is the new shinden kai, so 5 more years until the next night crew at the very least.
>>50121283There's more than one quest that requires them.
cute gamby
https://twitter.com/C2_STAFF/status/1975785823292563557kancolle arcade running out of materials for the cards, it'll be dead very soonF
>>50124554Shinano is going to be added to the arcade first as part of its 10th anniversary update. It will also be the final content update.
>>50124554they can't just get more? what are they made of white rhino hides?
>>50125616I assume it's the RFID chips that are running out rather than the rest of the card.
>>50124625
>>50124554Wow its just like WW2 Japan all over again.
>>50124554Earlier this year they made a similar post about updates slowing down. Covid was truly brutal on Japanese arcades.
>>50125616>>50125639from what i gathered, they were produced by mitsubishi and the factory closed down. mitsubishi still has the rights to the chip design and arcades will not take other manufacteurers>>50126467yeah they did, but i don't think people were expecting things to happen so soon. back then it was worded more like they'd keep going normally until the 10th anniversary at least. being unable to print cards is a death blow
>>50124554Arcades should just become the Gundam monkey zoos at this point.
So what to pick for this year?
>>50128531NGNM
>>50128531Torp command I guess, unless you are low on protopults.
>>50128531Torp 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).

>>50130201>From Europe and fought in the European theatreOk, that rules out the IJN and the US Navy.Scharnhorst and Gneisenau? (one can dream, come on.)
>>50130784>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.
>>50130784>Scharnhorst and GneisenauKraut 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.
>>50130784If it is a pair of krauts, I wouldn't expect anything bigger than Leipzigs.
>>50131079I expect it to be even worse
