yes and no. The more optimized the fleet or ship, the more effective the cat is, assuming you are using optimized cats. Cats have really weird math behind them, but in general, the lower the damage number, cats becomes far less effective and some times won't show any change besides a few pts. BBs for FP take advantage of cats the best, they can get up to 15% more damage, if properly optimized. DDs for TP as well. CL and CA will see very small changes even if optimized. a 1k hit will do 5% more damage at 1050. a 100 hit, will do 101. It is weird math, but that is how it works. There are rounding calculations, and CL and CA FP or TP bonuses are to low of a hit to show significant change. This is important to know, because even if you have a good ship but badly optimized, or a high optimize on a bad ship, cats won't make much of a difference even if they are maxed out cats. They would only provide 1-3% more damage.

@@yummychips_ I agree. BBs seem to gain the most from cats. After that I would CVs and CVLs have the next best benefit from them. CAs and CLs gain little. I use faction based cats for faction based fleets, which helps considerably.

New AL guides from Just3c is always nice!

Slight addendum on Georgia: The pellets on barrage are fixed location, just the large shots are targeting The large shots *are* the majority of the barrage damage, so that's why she's fine on the sides However, if you don't run another ship that needs flagship spot, Georgia still usually benefits from being flag (on a medium/heavy boss roughly in a central position, the pellets represent around 1/4 of her barrage damage, and also splash nearby mobs)

Just3c: Monarch is the main dmg dealer Saratoga: gets MVP

@lysitheaordelia1796

3 жыл бұрын

Main damage dealer to the boss, Saratoga is there for mob clearing...

I like to use akashi in my back row as one of my ships for 2 reasons: extra ammo for additional attacks and emergency healing to top off my fleet before I challenge the boss. the in battle dot healing is not that much so I don't really rely on it that much to heal my group, but the outside of combat advantages more than justify the lose of the 1 damage ship since the back row is on timers and only attacks maybe 3 times in 1 fight at most. if ships could be swapped in the middle of an assault I would slot damage and switch out to her to heal up after I used up that extra attack. once I have cleared a stage and its safe level of threat I will change her for a damage ship because I won't need the extra ammo or the heals.

Nice guide, seeing that Formidable makes my head spin since I didn't get the special planes for her when the event was ongoing 🤦‍♂️

Great guide, ima try noshiro at tank spot after this, didn't know shes stronk, now can use roon for mob instead 👌👌.

I am now preparing for 12-3, I stuck at 12-2 due to low lvl ships. I am playing nationalist fleets [USS, IJN etc] so it is a bit tricky to put a good and balanced team together for the boss. As it is a plane storm boss I decided to put 2 USS BB +Enty at the backline to tank them but I am unsure about my Vanguard. Is Sandy, Helena and Minne any good or should I change something? I put Bremerton on the mob fleet maybe I should switch them.

What surprises me is that Saratoga is also regarded as a top tier CV now. It used to have only Enterprise, Essex, Cantaur and Formidable.

With DoY and centaur, is it better hood or warspite? I think warspite is wasted as a main damage dealer, but she could rely on those 2 slows

But the point is, I followed his lead to the letter, and ch13 is easy on autoplay even without decreasing threat level.

@@justsam100 the equipment is effectively the most essential a'd overlooked one by new player. And things are not too hard to the point of the choice being irredeemable.

As for anti-air, it really depends on the rest of your vanguard a'd if they fill enough anti-air. Roon is meh for anti-air, and if you don't have a sandy or fully max seattle (or now Isuzu retrofit) for 3rd ship, having more anti-air will be more important than more torpedo damage. But it depends on your other two choice. Just3c even point out the importance of anti-air for the cruiser. (the most likely reason he does not put Saint-Louis while Ibuki is there, is probably because because he already picked Baltimore/Bremerton which fills the same roll as Saint-Louis, I don't necessarily agree with the approach that because Ibuki provide something different she should be here and not Saint-Louis but I still understand the approach).

@@antisaltknight887 late boss are mostly medium/heavy armor and I'm using Ibuki to nuke command ship instantly ( max fate Ibuki btw she get an evasion buff , so I can Nuke boss without getting too much damage)

My fleet would be Monarch as Flagship Ark royal for main damage of torpedos Then either perseus-healer or reliable support+Healer unicorn Then for my vanguard i can use 3 HEavy cruisers with best fp to help with the damage or 2 CAs that have incredible Hp then for middle an AA queen aka Sandiego For late chapters and for early chapter but on early chapter i chose Hood,2 Really good aircraft carriers 1 damager 1 healer or damager then for vanguard i really prefer portland retrofit then any cleveland class or helena retro which is good for late chapters then a good torpedo destroyer

Thanks, eventhough I didn't have Baltimore, I will try your recomendation....

Breme works even better as off tank in fleets that have 2BB and 1CV.

You look at their type. DD/CL are light, CA/CV are medium, BB is heavy.
