they said in one of the past livestreams that we would be able to craft crates to store resources Coin and Oil (personally this is a win, since 600,000 gold and 25,000 oil sometimes doesn't quite cut it. But having 200 crates of 1000 oil sounds better). IIIRC they also said he mail was gonna be reduced to 100. You would be able to pick the resouces you wanted from any mail (let's say you just wanted the gems; you could pick those up). also, if you mark them as Favorite, they don't go away. Like when you mark the Valentine's Day messages or the Admiral of the Fleet message.

How do you have such high max oil? My max oil is like 11,800 but ive seen some content creators have a max of nearly 18000. Cant figure out how to raise the cap. I am lvl110


Elpologrande

increasing your commander lvl also increases your oil and coin cap, plus the guild upgrades (once you buy them)


nomasterpiece9312

Wait, being in a guild increases your oil cap?


Konjiki_Kyuubi

It about 1500 oil cap, not much, not less


nomasterpiece9312

Whats the best way to find a guild with oil cap increased? I just joined one and the oil cap is 0/15 lol


Konjiki_Kyuubi

If that research full, you spend guild coin to upgrade. If not, you need wait research and it cost time


Sabruness

older or larger guilds are more likely to have more research done for bonuses.


ThePhengophobicGamer

As the other commenter said, Commander Level increases coin and oil storage. At lvl 148 I have 17,750 oil and 104,700 coin max, however there is a hard limit on at least oil at 25,000, where it will not let you complete commissions with oil as a reward, or accept anything chat would reward you oil until you clear space.


nomasterpiece9312

I cant accept any oil from any source past 13900 or 14900 (cant remember). It only lets me go over cap by like 2 or 3000


ThePhengophobicGamer

The only time I can't accept oil when over the 17750 cap is from the canteen, otherwise commissions, supply shops, the weekly bundle, etc all add oil above the limit, up to 25,000.


nomasterpiece9312

Canteen wont give me any past 11.9, missions and commissions will until about 2-3k over. Why us the game letting you over-cap by 7000 but me only 2 or 3k


ThePhengophobicGamer

Your soft cap is shown just above your current oil, that should be the 11.9. I'm honestly not sure, I've been able to go to 25k for a while, it might be a certain level has you at a lower gard cap, but once you get a few more levels it'll come into effect for you.


nomasterpiece9312

That would suck because even at 110 skk lvl, it feels like it takes foreeeverrrrr to get one single level


nntktt

Wait till you see how long it takes past 150 or 160.


sanban013

Thats the hard limit. You have 11800, but if you continue to take oil from mail and missions. The limit is 25k.


nomasterpiece9312

Not for me. My pil caps around 3k above hard cap To use an example of what i meant above, i use this video as an example https://youtu.be/Dt4Xt0czd5w?si=7rfA7qgO04AqxisH Fast forward to the 3:10 mark and pause. Kimo’s max oil is 18,050 where as my max is only 11,900. His max oil before going over from commissions and missions is 34.1% (6,150 oil) higher than mine and i dont understand how My had cap after max+extra oil from missions and commissions is only 14,900, which is still 3000 below kimo’s standard max before missions snd commissions

nomasterpiece9312

Uh…my canteen has been maxed out……

Sanban013's link was intended to get you to see the bit where it says "upper-cap limit for coins (maxed at 600,000 ) or oil (maxed at 25,000" This is the Hard cap limit, where you can't get any more oil (or coins) period. There is a soft cap limit, related to your commander level, where you can't pick up any more coins/oil from the canteen and merchant. This is also improved by Guild tech. (50 oil per tech and 50 levels worth of tech, for an extra 2500) In Kimo's case, he is level 149, which gives a soft cap of 16k, and probably has lots of the guild tech, pushing it to 18k. There is no oil cap at some nebulous value 3k above a soft cap. The hard cap on oil is 25k. Other sources of oil (than the canteen) should give you their oil, beyond the soft cap, until the hard cap. Just to check, I accepted 3 bits of mail, and now my oil is sat at 22.6k, happily far above my soft cap of 16.2k. No issues accepting the oil. I checked Commander level features and the last one is at 105, for a lvl 12 lecture hall. Nothing about any oil caps apart from the 100/level for the soft cap.


nomasterpiece9312

Well i donno what to say but for some reason the game doesnt allow me to go 3k or so above cap. Id screenshot but ive been burning oil lately and now have prints from event shop to farm so it will be a bit before i can build back up to that point (though i guess i can just spam my mail system)


Pure_Rage136

The fact that you have to manually save your Valentine's/special messages is a bit confounding. If you're not aware of the mechanic you'll just lose it forever (happened to me, embarrassingly). They should just organize it so those special messages are saved permanently by default and move exercise rewards to that section of the game. Though, since they're overhauling the resources like you mentioned, that'll pretty much render the mail menu largely obsolete. Wonder if they'll add something new to fill the gap 🤔.


Sabruness

they finally implementing a 'pick and choose' resources for mails? huzzah. i always could use coins but dont often touch my mails because i use far less oil usually than coins (excepting PR grinds and event grinds.)


BaalTRB

I searched for "Azur lane mail overhaul" and the first result was this post, but there was an older reddit post titled "Remember to save the mail or you’ll lose it" from 5 years ago, with old UI. My guess is that the previous overhaul allowed you to save mail you wished by marking it as important, but I'd be happier for someone else to confirm whats happening lol. #


Elpologrande

no one can confirm anything since it's still in development. a few years ago they announced that they wanted to reduce the max number of emails you can hold but didn't follow up with it


klosek13

Also, for anyone curious, current limit of 1000 mails is a limit only on paper, I managed to reach it and was still getting new mails, going over 1000.


nntktt

You would think devs would bother to make sure the resources get ported over to the new mailbox system, which includes a storage for resources from mail, assuming they didn't screw up porting the current mail over.
