Worth the wait! Though i've Retrofitted Ayaya, i never really got to use her yet (even though i know she's a beast in Torp Warfare way before i got her), but now i know what fleet she'll be in. The tips in these vids a very helpful, and for that thnx, plus the editing is very nice and the memes/jokes are a nice addition! "I think I'm Funny..." Hawk bruh, you are funny, I actually laughed a good amount in your vids, or at least a chuckle, heh. Anyway Keep up the Good Work, looking forward to more of your vids, and Good Luck in your future projects! Warhammer Out!
The Typical Glass Cannon, once everything goes to her way she'll shoot the enemy up trough the sky. Sadly Glass Cannon is glass cannon thus Enterprise or anyother crazy Barrage boss can decimate her... That's why i always either pair her with Belfast for smokescreen eva and Yukikaze's shield (might as well throw Illust if need more) also did you kno Blanc (HDN Ver) is one of the good Demon torp... Might be underatted cause HDN ship is somewhat luckluster cause collab Edit:is* P.s: HDN Ship Review/Thought? Would be nice to cover up the Black Heart complexity and burn Green Heart so bad cause that skill will suck your ssr cube rng. Anyhow keep up, you're slowly becoming AL 👌👌 content creator
Love the video, have been waiting for it the entire weekend and it worth the wait :) Even though i think laffey is the best DD, i would admit Ayaya is the strongest DD in the game right now, team up Ayaya with jintsuu , and she become the absolute beast XD. BTW 5% gun prob is actually quite high especially with 76mm gun. it have been very consistent in activating the skill in my play through .
Welp if the event after winter's crown Is Ink Stained Steel Sakura *looks at nagato* *looks at her skills* *places akaga ayanami and jintsuu (i misspeld her did i)* *places nagato as flagship* ITS SHOWTIME PEOPLE!
i only played this game back december and still grinding for Javelin, in the date of this comment i still dont have her so you will be making a video for Z23, you my man just earned my sub
Solid list on who's next. Seeing as you've already done those two, I'd hope that the other two starters are up next. After, maybe some high-but-not-highest tiered ships. Preferably whoever you enjoy using or just think aren't the most talked about. Now that that's said, I would like to see a Kent video. No reason in particular.
There's a certain three star main gun Ayanami can equip to maximize the effectiveness of her skill. Since it's based on the main gun being fired, the faster the better.
You saved me so many cubes I’m new to azure lane so I didn’t know you automatically get her once you fully limit break the three starter ships, much Love ♥️
Glad you saw this then. You can't get her at all until you unlock her. Once you've unlocked her (same rule applies to other ships like Akashi as well), you will be able to build her.
Now that is a whole other rabbit hole for me to dig into, I hear her quest is unbelievably long to obtain her🤣 either way I just got ayanami’s new banquet skin and I can’t wait to use her once my Z23 and javelin are up to scratch.
Indeed 😊 I’m actually planning to clear the entire game without the use of flight carriers or battle cruisers so just the Three Starter ships although I might switch javelin out sorry queen and country just because ayanami might help with those sticky situations with grouped up bosses.
@@Hawk2zer0 You're awesome man, I enjoy your sense of humor (and constant bashing of san diego) Looking forward to future content, have a good one Hawk.
@@Hawk2zer0 I know but I still find it hilarious. I still have my San Diego but I dropped her at level 18 and now she's been sitting with a bunch of my other ships in port for almost a good year now.
There certainly is a ship you missed on the list: USS Yorktown. I speculate that her ability to retaliate a shot recieved every 20 seconds with a carrier strike is good if you're better at surviving than the enemy. I've been wondering if Hammann, Yuugure and Fortune can be stacked to toughen Yorktown as she slowly grinds the enemy to dust.
Yorktown was added to the list. I guess for a PvP troll fleet that Frontline might work...but those characters probably won't last long.. In pvE...I'm not sure this is a good idea ..low damage isn't great and you should out DPS a boss not out tank it.
@@Hawk2zer0 You made a good point about it in PvE. My curiosity was only for PvP tho, haha. Got Fortune and Hammann prepariing and gonna add Yuugure and S.Dakota to see what happens.
One tip I could give to everyone, her barrage is really good, and since she has low FP, using terrible guns with high ROF is a good idea for her. I use the Single 120mm gun. She throws out her barrage like once every 8 or 10 seconds with it upgraded to +6
HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, new video from my boy, once the starters are done hope you go through some of the wacky SSR ships like Akashi or Eldridge
I use German magnetic torps since they're slow and at close ranges there's basically no dispersion, perfect for nuking bosses. That said, I hoping we'll have quintuple 610mm torps Sakura torps launcher someday, so I could try a maximum meme torps build with 2 rainbow torp and gold Sakura torps (of course with Jinstu and Fubuki for maximum meme). Also Ayanami isn't only a torpedo demon....If you know what I mean kappa
@@Hawk2zer0 "Decreases damage taken to self by 20%. While alive in fleet, increases torpedo critical hit chance for all CL and DD in the same fleet by 4% (10%.) Starting from level 6 of the skill, also increases torpedo critical hit damage by 5% (30%)" - "While alive in fleet, increases reload and torpedo stat for all CL and DD in the same fleet by 5% (20%)" :)
So how much gems have you bought so far? I kind of just started and noticed the lack of dock space. But i dont want to spend too much money on this game.
I really need to get that "starter squad" levelling up... Laffey being my starter and fave (first waifu!) and now I got both Javelin and Z-23 ready to level...
ewok40k as a Nimi user, and nimi lover, I have nothing against laffey users...however several other people in the sandy sever as I can tell have a problem with javelin and I personally think javelin is useful but not a lot
@@maplesyrup6529 (I see you like Maple and her turtle...) Javelin doesnt stand out as torpedo nor as gunboat, but she has amazing EVAsion. Capitalize on this and you are set..
@@ewok40k her evasion is good I won't deny, but just darting around isn't very appealing to me so no, and also about the maple and her turtle, I use that because it conveniently suits my initials irl, so Maple Syrup (MS) my initials
Ayanami and Jintsuu made my JP winter crown D-3 farming super easy, 1 shotting the Siren patrols right off the bat. I wasn't able to do it on NA, gear/stats not as good and only lv100 plus still working on Jintsuu
The only problem i had with Ayanami is she keeps dying. And so I have to pair her with a tanky ship and Shouhou as jintsuu is also not tanky enough fighting a high level boss fleet. Evasion is basically praying to RNG, except for HMS DDs.
Atm I use her with Yat sen and Ping Hai to tank for her. Also I have Amagi in the back debuffing the enemy and Akashi for heals. Third back line warrior is whatever I feel like inserting but since I have Nagato I now have to rethink my Normal boss fleet..... or fleet in general lol with the torpedo buff active I have seen her nearly one shot a level 80 boss when I face torped her.
The moment when you want that torpedo damage: Boss: Oh? You're approaching me? Instead of running away, your coming right at me? Ayanami: I can't beat the shit out of you without getting closer. Boss: Oh ho! Then come as close as you like. *You get what's coming*
I saw the javelin video and it made me think I was not making the best use of my resources. Then I saw this video which says I need to max her out it anyways and felt less bad.
@@Hawk2zer0 Your videos have made me do some things right though. I got Helena from a box early on and now part of my standard fleet. Who who is better San Diago or Li'l Sandy?
@@shangri-la-la-la Between the two of them, San Diego (Normal size) is the better one... especially since her UR retrofit is set to arrive in the near future!
Were her new partner in crime jintsuu? But atleast as a honorable mention Also do understand shes not accessible for new players because 10-4 is just to brutal.
Amagi is easily the best BC. Super nice barrage and she prefers attacking often, so low CD guns / autoreloader / gold FCR. When in an IJN fleet, she fits right in by also staying aligned with the "quick burst" strategy other good IJN ships have. In PvP, her defensive skills are appreciated, trolling off 9% of the damage, helping backline evade other BBs and being able to immediately kill Ente off of a barrage if Amagi is placed across from her. PvE mobbing is strong bc her defensives help keep other ships alive by evading BB shots and reducing nasty burns while also sporting CL aux. She's useful in boss fleets that hit real hard. Using her a lot is easy because she brings a lot to the table without requiring fleet set ups, you can run her in a big or small fleet; Oathing is np, she'll get that 200 affinity. I'm also going to make her my first Awakened ship, since she'll be depended on a lot for the new W11.
@@anniedarkheart5224 Cool , i started AL right around 3/4 way before the event where amagi got released. Still fairly new to the game and still learning and currently enjoying a lot of characters, got my first starter(laffey) retrofited. Thanks for the insight
I watch this video be for but i didnt know it came out on my birthday 3/3 and ayanami is my favorite ship girl i wish i oath her on that date lol but at least i oath her in March and hawk thank you for this brithday present lol 😄
