Need some help with a deck build

I started this game like 2 days ago and I'm liking it. However, scrolling around in this reddit, I see that basically my entire build sucks (as other posts say the ships I'm using are trash). At this point, should I reset my account and start over because I've already put a lot of resources imo into bad ships or is there another good loadout that I could potentially move over to? Thanks for any help!

META ships

Newer player here. What exactly are the META ships, how do they work, and how good are the recent ones? I got the ones from the last seasonal pass and this one (Houshou META & Giulio cesare META). How do I know if they are good and worth investing into?

New Player Fleet Building Help

I have been playing for 3 days now and I am really hooked, but I am not sure if I have composed a "good" fleet with my current ships. I have read the ECTL newbie guide and looked over a bunch of old reddit posts for a general understanding of what to do but there is still quite a bit of information I have most likely overlooked/don't understand.

From my current knowledge, a vanguard fleet comp of CA/DD/CL seems to be the best? I used to go CA/DD/DD but this might be too squishy in the future when the chapters become hard. Also I was under the assumption that there should always be 2 CV/CVLs and 1 BB. Would this be true?

As a result my current fleet looks like this:

Mobbing

  • Main:
    • Houshou (CVL)
    • Golden Darkness (BB)
    • Unicorn (CVL)
  • Vanguard:
    • Portland (CA)
    • Sirius (CL) 
    • Z23 (DD)

Boss

  • Main:
    • Saratoga (CV)
    • Littorio (BB)
    • Shangri la (CV)
  • Vanguard:
    • Baltimore (CA)
    • Nana (DD)
    • Denver (CL)

It doesn't help that there is some pretty big level differences due to me picking and dropping ships for my fleet, so I am trying to commit to one from now on. I plan to get Enterprise once I finish the newcomer missions and replace Houshou with it, and Denver to be replaced by any better CL I get in the future. Is this the best fleet possible atm? I am currently at stage 5-4 of the main campaign, and while the levels are easy I see that my recon and avi levels do not meet the stage requirements which worries me a little.

Unrelated questions:

It is my understanding that vanguard ships prioritize FR. Does this apply to their AA guns as well?

Also, is it okay to sacrifice some FR for damage? For example I have a gun that does 7x4 DMG at a rate of 1.92s/wave but another that does 5x3 at a rate of 1.66s/wave. I picked the high damage one as I felt a 0.3s difference was negligible.

How important is the AA stat on guns? I try to maximize any AA i get so I usually prefer those guns on my ships if the DMG/FR difference isn't too big

Mapped out a order for OpSi for anyone that hasn't started the explorations yet

Basically the title, for any new players including me, I mapped out a path in OpSi in order to get all the files. Hope it helps, improvements on the path from more experienced players would be appreciated.
