Captain Retraining

[AhosChaos]

What are you supposed to do with a captain that practically has no skills because he is retraining.  You can only go so far with the silver accelerated retraining and the flags only help so much.

 

More specifically what am I supposed to do in my Fubuki.  Like with the previous tiers the xp you had to get was very minimal, but 34k after the 200k silver accelerated retraining is rough.   More so at tier 8 detection and concealment modules become purchasable which means that I could be detected without even knowing it.  Like what do I do?  I can't play too aggressively because I lack any captain skills and I can't play too conservatively because I'll end up only getting like 500 xp a game.

Put them in your Kamikaze or Tachibana and play in them until they are retrained... premium ships allows you to have full use of skills during a retrain.

500 doubloons is around $2.50

We're talking a couple bites of a sandwich.  OK..  big bites..  Half a $5 foot-long...

I shouldn't type when I'm hungry.

But don't you still then need to retrain the commander for the Fubuki?

Start the retraining and any XP gained while in a premium counts towards the retrain, and with them in a premium ship, all captain skills are 100% active.

TA on Kamikaze its a pain to have.

 

I had a skill captain for my new fubuki waiting on my kamikaze, 6 skills captain with the 50% off its like 2 battles without SA. in the other hand my 12 points captain that its meant to be on my fubuki its on my kamikaze... damn TA hurts on Kamikaze a lot, and its like 25k XP to farm.

I'll reformulate it, because it can be difficult to understand for someone who's never done it:

1. Start the retraining on the new ship (e.g. Fubuki) so the captain is now specialized to this ship
2. Move the captain to a premium ship (e.g. Kamikaze) where captain skills have full effect, even during retraining
3. Complete retraining
4. Move captain to new ship (e.g. Fubuki)

 

You now have a fully retrained captain, no need to suffer T8+ battles without SA.
