Mistake no 6: not had limitbroken your ships when you've got a duplicate, when you get a duplicate of a ship use it to limitbreak the locked one you have, then if you get another duplicate of a fully limitbroken ship, you can retire it. it very annoying when a ship gets a very good retrofit and you have to spend 5 bulins to get to it, but you remember that you have retired many duplicates of that ship before, like Sandy or London. Mistake no 7: YES, bulins are very valuable and NEVER retire them. Especially with events that gives you a special portrait if you fully limitbreak certains ships. There are like 400 ships in the game and you won't get many of them more that once, so make good use of every bulin you have. Mistake no 8: Not paying attention to Phoenix. don't be fooled by tier list and stuff, she is one of the most efficient, versatile and useful ship in game.

It depends on where you are at, really. Early game, I realized that losing to a full lv 120 team gave me more points than winning a team I could actually beat, which were like lv 30 or something.

Keep in mind, a lot of these tips are only useful if you're looking to put some hardcore farming hours into the game. If you only play for a few minutes to hour or so each day, I don't think it's possible to ever run out of oil.

[@yummychips_]

true, when i grind, i go semi efficient, and burn like 10k oil over 4 hours while passive auto. When I need to blow the oil, I just run full fleets and do ch 10+, burn 10k oil in like 1hr. IF I want to super try hard grind, I could make 10K oil last 10+ hrs. Never gone that far, but it is possible. Some have mathed it and done it, where they literally make more oil than they use. My friend started out, and he never had oil problems. It becomes harder to manage oil later when you have a lot more powerful fleets. Also the content you want to farm.

[@hassathunter2464]

Yeah, I play several hours a day and still am "I got 6000 oil on exams, and 2x 2000 in the store, and 4000 in mail... how can I run out. I need to use 1200oil commissions just to use up all I get.

I'm a Day 1 player and this popped up in my recommended. The Limit Break 0 thing really only works on the Chinese server, where limit breaks don't increase the level cap (You can have LB0 ships at level 100). This advice is pretty mediocre on EN/JP.

Use rare and common ships even if you didn't Elite or Super Rare. Keep progressing, you eventually get better ships. Rare and Common especially ships with retrofit potential. They cost less, packs enough punch, they will eventually be superseded but until Chapter 12-13, they are powerful enough for events and main campaign until 11.

I stumbled on this video by pure chance because of an azur lane music video. I actually didn't realize the first few mistakes at all and very recently started playing Azur Lane on my PC, so this is quite helpful information! I haven't tried PvP yet, but at least now I'm already aware of how valuable it is to simply slam into it even if you lose. As for limit breaking, rather good to know. I'm at least able to make more conscious decision making for limit breaking now. The one mistake here I seem to have avoided is that I actually am taking and leveling a variety of ships. 1 carrier per fleet, 2 battleships, at least 1 DD, and 1-2 cruisers is what I'm presently running with while also using exercising commissions to try and level up the two fleets I have so I can, ya know, use both fleets at once instead of only using Fleet 1 to try and do entire stages. Thank you for this video, it certainly helped at least make me aware of especially the first 2 mistakes! I had zero clue you could level up your T1 and T2 boxes to T3. Now I feel bad for all those T1 boxes I opened yesterday on my first day, but I can right that wrong with the next ones I get.

[@floresistance]

>telling someone they should not be scared of doing pvp >having yourself a defense fleet like that bruh

[@parting-8457]

Hi, I just started playing this game 4 days ago and these tips were really helpful, but I still have some questions. First, how do I get gear? Every ship I get doesn’t really have any gear at all and what I get from missions are these books to enhance gear so I’m a bit confused there. Second is, what is the ideal method for farming XP? Do I go on a stage and clear out all the enemies + the boss or do I prioritize the boss once it appears (after taking out 3 or 4 patrols)? (I’m on stage 2-4 as of now).

[@forgotmuhname4718]

Gear can come from tech boxes that you can buy in the shop, build exchange, or drop from completing battles. In battles, you can also get gear parts, and once you get a certain amount of parts for a specific type of gear, you can build it using coins and then equip it on a ship. You can check craft under depot for that. For XP farming, the harder the difficulty of the fleet you face, the more XP you earn. 3 triangle red fleets give more than 2 triangle ones, 2 triangle gives more than 1 triangle. But it usually isn’t too big of a difference. Bosses of course give more XP than any mob fleets, so I suppose you should clear just enough to get to boss. If you clear all mob fleets before boss fleet, you can also run out of ammo or not have enough HP to fight the boss. Also, keeping ships in the dorm grants experience bonuses, along with oathing ships. Not to mention, keeping ships in the dorm also passively gives XP to ships.

So I just figured out what retrofit really is yesterday. I've been playing this game off and on for TWO YEARS. at the least. And within these past couple weeks, I've been learning so much. Watching videos like these, trying new things etc. I'm having more fun and kicking ass and my fiance is helping me notice details I have totally missed. He doesn't play but he's a huge gamer so he is a great sidekick 🥰 Last thing: is javelin worth having around? Her stats are low and I do enhance as much as possible. I focus all my energy into super rare girls as I seem to have quite a few. I used to make sure all my purple or higher were evenly strong for variety but I feel like I've been wasting effort, time and resources by doing so. Advice, please? Thanks so much for this help! Much appreciated!

[@gerdoAL]

Glad to hear you're really getting into and enjoying the game! Javelin is the worst of all the starters unfortunately, although still not *bad* early on. I would focus on 12 ships early on, 6 in the mob and 6 in the boss fleet. Also note that rarity does not always correlate with power level in this game. There are some great common ships and terribly SSR ships. There's not too much you can invest into a ship and have it "go to waste" except for maybe skill books. The great thing about Azur Lane is the ability to just pick a ship and immediately be able to start using her by just swapping gear over form someone else. Don't worry too much about leveling too many ships unless you're focused on pushing the story as far as possible, which in that case you want to stick to your 12 ships so you level them ASAP.

[@korewakireji3595]

I actually don't agree with the "don't use limit break 0 ships" part because limit break 0 cassin and downes literally cost 1 oil to use each, so can help you save a little bit of oil when farming coins or gear from lower stages ( 19 oil with cassin downes erebus + one max lb ssr carrier compared to 25 with just phoenix + bb backline ). When grinding, each drop of oil counts in my opinion and using low rarity no lb ships can help with this when you want to save up resources for future events. Besides, I don't think anyone would be using a fully limit broken cassin/downes/erebus on stages 10 up anyways, so limit breaking them would be a bit of a waste of gold.

[@LordangeloxD]

Omg you can craft the pink boxes to blue and them even beyond, that's my biggest mistake, holy shit. I play like 2 months and I never notice that

[@Warmaker01]

I started the game in early-mid December 2019. A mistake I made before having a high level captain was I went crazy for limit breaking ships when I didn't really need to. I was leveling just fine, I had nothing approaching level cap that needed limit breaking. I ran into an issue that with all these limit broken ships, my oil usage compared to what I was generating killed my high sortie rate. Even with commissions to help generate some extra oil, my rate of sorties dwindled sharply. I needed several days to generate a stockpile of oil so I could work on a map some. And that was for normal play. I didn't even count the pressure of limited time events to run and clear maps, stockpile event tokens to get gear, new ships. All that needs sorties, and if your fleet is too costly to run on oil, then you're not going to sortie much.

[@justinemarkdajay7485]

Same mistake here. I LB'd my Laffey twice at level 30. I didn't struggle with the maps, it's just that I cant sortie as much as i could've.

[@hassathunter2464]

Did same, no issues though, the amount of bonus oil and money thrown at you at the start is insane.

Oil efficiency is a damn problem at later level when you're at a point you're supposed to be able to farm event maps. That's when I've started using zero Limit Breaks, and that really saved me a lot of oils. It all depends on the clearing range, though. If I can't beat EX Part 2 Event maps yet, but can do Normal Part 2 Event maps reasonable well, I just throw in some trained zero Limit Breaks and Illustrious, and then adjust my fleets after that. Good lord Battleships eats your oil stocks.

I'm a very patient man. I'm still level 50 but my entire fleet is married and all level 100+ what I did was just use all my oil in food then login once a day to feed them in the dorm. I repeat this process for more than a month that got most of them to level 50-70. Feed them=more furniture coins=more furniture=increase level up buff=higher level ships. Very slow process but I'm fine with it.

[@rupert5066]

I've been limit breaking all of my favorite ships for the past two days... This wouldn't be a problem if I'd been playing for more than two days : (

Me who just started playing and watching the things I shouldn't done

[@cpt_azure5828]

thankx alot man ....now i know what to do so thumbs up for those pinpoints of mistakes that needed to be avoided

[@ralph_guadalupe9989]

I'm like lvl 70 and i just found out about the craft doing on the gear boxes how terrible can i be

[@Crimmx_x3]

This still doesn't tell me why my ere bus is stuck on 70 lvl when I see other people with 111 lvl erebus's

[@gerdoAL]

Erebus as a Battlemonitor gains very little stats when limit broken past Lv70, not making it worth the resources and earning her niche as a Limit Break 0 backline farming ship for cheap oil farming (for late game, don't worry too much about oil cost until you have multiple Lv120s).

[@gustavopetry5004]

I didn't care about leveling cruisers and only used destroyers. Now I'm suffering and can't clear the last stage of the events because of that. Also, if you guys get Hood, level her up as soon as possible. She's weak compared to battleships, but since she's a rare kind of ship (battlecruiser, which you need in some events) it's worth it to level her up.

[@amynevin4738]

When I started my husband bought packs so I got alot of cubes and level 70 ships straight away

[@cookies23z]

Day 3 I was expanding my horizons on the gameplay, day 1 I looked at pvp and went "lel no thanks" Day 2 I tried it and saw I got some merit still, threw my girls into the blender so fast, plus it was an easy way to level them all to 10 for first limit break (altho now I think that was oil inneficent and I should have waited until I needed the dock space... anyways, now I can actually beat a few opponents, and leave my defense fleet as a lv1 loli ship and my albion to show off, plus it lets other ppl get full merits if they bulli the loli

[@coreytaylor447]

me at level 97: "oh I better watch this juuuuust to make sure"

[@tokiri485]

1) How would you get Erebus up to max affinity without either using her loads or leaving her in the dorm hoping to get the random affinity boosts for so long she'd have gone way past her level 70 cap? 2) Limit breaking ships whenever you can is useful, the second limit break for destroyers, carriers and most cruisers give an extra charge on their torps/planes which is useful for bosses. Also handy for the events where it specifies you need 4 ships to get points, if 3/4 of the ships specified are fully limit broken you're only needing to use between 2 and 4 bullins as opposed to 16 bullins to get them ready before the event even begins

[@hassathunter2464]

1) Secretaries gain passive affinity till 90. 2) Not to mention the amount needed for the new ships depending on drops. So many bullins pumped in the Russians.

[@tokiri485]

@@hassathunter2464 he's mentioned in his video on affinity that to get from 90 affinity it still takes about 100 battles if the ship is getting MVP every time, so either way he's used Erabus quite a bit

[@Tokax]

I started when u released this video and now I am watching it when I level 50

[@barisany8991]

Thank you very much for the information you provided about upgrading the boxes.

[@keirtgaming]

LB2 any vanguard that has torpedo makes huge difference, it help a lot. but yeah, other than for torpedo and salvo, limit break didn't makes 'huge' stats differences.

[@myrcle]

Simple Tips from me : Dont fucking farm for one thing,You gonna suffer. Try to farm for 2,3 or even 4 things Example : I farm 7-2 mainly for coins,gold 113mm AA gun,Exp,and then Dorm food

[@misspurdy27288]

3:20 Exception: Fletcher fleets that are busy fox mining,

[@Milenos]

Not even. Use Fox mine to lvl up good ship, it give enough early xp.

[@misspurdy27288]

Milenos Fox mining is the only time I ever ran out of oil. still don’t have kaga.

[@oversouldrekon2623]

Thanks for this! Just started 2 weeks ago :D

[@DividedByZeero]

Another tip: Limit breaking ships you’ll never use is not a great idea It’s just a waste Another tip If you have a bullin and you can retrofit something, use the bullin for the retrofit don’t use it for limit break A retrofitted San Diego would need a legendary bullin to do that and for example a retrofitted laffey can do a crap ton of damage so use a bullin for retrofit limit breaking won’t do as good as a retrofit

[@deamonspades9772]

i just use another sandi as i have hell tons of sandi from build

[@hassathunter2464]

Fleet Tech. Also retro-Sandy relies on temp item... who knows how long I need to keep the 2 copies I have for it :(

[@reichfuhrer1942]

I agree with everything you said btw. Those are the things I unconsciously did when I was new to the game.

[@hiddenfog180]

Forgot not doing the 8 and then 10 hour commission whenever possible.

[@VoidBL]

Are you no longer making videos? Your videos are very helpful I was struggling with hard mode on events and was hoping you had a guide.

[@AutisticHorse]

I got most of my ship at max level because of 3-4 Yes i do really like kaga and akagi.

[@patsfinish]

Nice vid gerdo

[@gerdoAL]

Thank you :)

[@Nokker]

Me: "Oh, I started Azur Lane like 3 days ago, I should watch this video" Me 3 minutes later: "What the fuck is a limit break 0 ship"

[@gerdoAL]

A ship that has not been limit broken using a copy of itself or a Bulin!

[@vemonousyelkmis5299]

Thanks for the tips. I will keep them in mind.

[@swoop93]

Thanks man! This was super useful for me as a new player!

[@hunt7533]

Can you make a starter guide? I love the information you provided. I want to start playing but Idk what to do and Idk if the guides from a while back rn are viable tbh.

[@pauloazuela8488]

I'm glad that I did most of it despite not aware of it but my problem is I blow up my free 1k gem just for a reroll in gacha and I regret it.

[@coffeepanda3733]

I agree with most but not the limitbreaking

[@stargazzer8703]

thank mate.... subscribed!

[@gerdoAL]

Thanks for the sub!

[@johnpaulavillanoza1448]

I just noticed that even if I'm new to Azur Lane I didn't make this mistakes... Gamer instinct I guess?

[@RaikaSTi]

my first mistake was leveling up and using the upgrade ships in my team (the purple and gold loli's). they are weak and are only good for using them to upgrade purple and gold ships

[@Toblerown_ch]

I only started playing yesterday. I kept upgrading my commons then I realized that other tiers exist lmao

[@elpsycongroo8062]

What a good teacher i think you should open a school about shipgirls

[@mr.despacito4301]

I just started playing. Thanks for this

[@nohandlesplease]

Is it just me or is the lowest rank in PvP the most dangerous? Seriously why am I being put against fully limit broken SSR fleets with maxed levels and some of them or in some cases most of them oathed? ...Still too lazy to deal with fleet 2 being a triple carrier. (Akagi (She dropped early), Taihou, and Yorktown. With Montiplier, Portland, and Indianapolis up front ) The strongest fleet I've ever built... I just used all the starters (With Unicorn, California, and Arizona on the backline). It beat out anything I made beforehand... maybe I just have no clue how to build a good fleet :-/. Arizona has a barrage skill but I keep her to the side because she lags behind in levels and thus has significantly less HP than California. I mixed up Arizona and Nelson, Torp me now.

[@eizlaniskandar7946]

Im actually new, not that new, im lvl 31 but still a little fresh, my first mistake i ever make is to enchance my character using the purple card character or 5 star you call such as Bulin where it doesnt do anything to enchance, and when i try the limit break, then it does something I've wasted 1 Bulin for nothing

[@gembocobo9484]

another mistake is using free gems to expand dorm at least in my opinion. free gems are for dock upgrades only. if you buy gems then that is where you can use it to buy whatever. as long as this game is alive and well new ships will be rolled out. dock space from free gems is your best bet if you play f2p. whenever i wanna level I grind pvp or grind the normal way. I kinda regret getting that dorm slot 3 because I didn't know any better back then.

[@Luis-ci8wr]

The only thing that bothers me before when I started is, what is the CL CA BB etc means lol.. And after that nothing else I suppose hahaha

[@RemohTejero1209]

Agree with using LB-0 ships..huge mistake.

[@cookies23z]

Game threw sr carriers at me when I started, I had 6 of them... Slowly been throwing cubes at getting alabama because of... some art ive seen Its gotten me a lot of ships, but not her, but 2 kagaBB and a few toyers have hekped me diversify my backlines
