I started during Golden Hind's event and was flamed on [redacted] Discord for suggesting this might be the/an IX niche (until more Guns/UR/etc. emerges), despite research (sorry, "parroting") CN findings first to make sure I wasn't completely clueless. At the time I obviously wasn't in a position to get the footage myself, so it's nice to be vindicated. All that is to say I appreciate your channel consistently doing the actual legwork with this type of thing (and even going for an intentionally dubious-looking team in this case to test the limits beyond just using Golden Hind). Cheers! As an aside, I'm curious if you can make Sao work but I imagine trading a Main Fleet slot (and the fighters, ACV, etc.) for that +1 Ammo is much more costly.
Sao might work if you have Aquila healing her, and enough DPS in the vanguard. I tried using her in 14-4 with moderate success, her biggest weakness being a lack of damage output against the numerous Medium and Heavy armour enemies. Her survivabilty isn't great, so your fleet needs to kill the enemy BBs and CVs quickly enough to make her survive all the fights. It's definitely harder than using Hind or Galley to carry the +1 Ammo.
Azur lane official discord and ECTL don’t know what they’re talking about. I can’t tell you how many times I pitched something; got called a dumbass by the server and then 2 weeks later everyone is doing exactly what I pitched.
@@Jawslehoff That's been my experience as well (though I haven't tried quite as deep as 14-4). I like the unique stagger/timing of her volley/barrage but her guns/kit just don't match 14/15 particularly well. If nothing else, she can allow more liberal leveling vanguards in 12/13/14 if the rest of your main fleet can pick up the slack. Enabling UVH especially is a big value synergy for either ship (as this vid's setup demonstrates).
Come on, we know you are depressed. Playing W15 for this long can only be done by depressed individuals who have nothing else in their lives, besides Azure Lane and JPG Waifus. Bless you, Jimmy, and your tireless effort to deliver us from rampant misinformation of zealous AL Fanbois ;).
im glad that i pulled the pirate banner and got all the ships eventho many would say trash ship without aa..and later on manjuu release new stage only to be simplified by having the other fleet as a barrage fleet
AA is easier than anti-sub. Anti-sub is where the real fun happens with fleet building. For AA just run an Eagle Union main fleet (independence, New Jersey, Yorktown 2, etc.) and throw Cheshire, Guam, or even San Diego in your Vanguard. The planes just melt. A good example of the Anti-Sub thing being fun is I actually dusted off my Warspite for 14-3/14-4, since she can equip anti-sub auxiliary planes (and the gold one from the Guam event is great), and I actually had success with it. That was a ton of fun.

You're welcome! ^_^
Golden Hind making the mob fleet more reliable really made my life simpler when grinding for Houston 2 and New Orleans.

ECTL?

Glad to hear you are not depressed

Funny enough I started building proper AA and Anti-sub fleets once I reached 14-3. In comparison to you, I have a LONG way to go.
