/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Why does everyone hates her at the very first sight?

>>11643415
Because the game has become boring.

Which kanmusu wud u fug?

>>11643415
But that's wrong. They only start to hate her much later

For all the anons who have completed the event, which route is better for clearing E-5, the upper route or the middle route?

>>11643422
Upper.

I don't really like the middle route because if you're unlucky the floating fortresses can still crit and the drop in fuel makes it that much harder to evade stuff in the boss's day battle. You can also enter day battle in the pre-boss node, which is even worse for your ammo.

>>11643422
I finished it with NE compass trolling, didn't try the middle one because got no other high lvl DD/CA to replace my BB.

Excuse me, just a question. How many of you weren't here before Kancolle? These threads seem really fast.

>>11643433
No board is an island.

>>11643434
Ah. When /jp/ was mostly about Touhou and stuff. Now those threads seem dead. The only threads that are alive lately are these.

>>11643422
Top route.
I dont want to run 3kongou and running 1kongou is just bad as I doubt you can wipe out the escorts consistently without BB gun.

Fuck E-5,everytime i finish the first node with full health then to get raped in the second node.

>>11643438
wich 2hu wud u like to see fug by kanmusu

>>11643433
I get paid to post about it. :^)

>>11643438
The board moves just as fast as it always has, this one just moves faster. Can we keep board meta out of this thread maybe?

>>11643443
Fuck off buddy, I think you wandered into the wrong place.

>>11643443
Please tell me where you're getting your money, I hate to see people paid to do what I do for free.

>>11643442
New to this Kancolle thing.
Shinki.

Besides compass trolling, hows the drop rate so far for you guys? I am getting fuck ton of dupes.

>>11643454
At least you have all these -kaku and Goya dupes, I can't even get any off them off E6/7.

>>11643454
I got Zuikaku on my first E-3 clear and Akigumo on my final E-5 clear. Outside of that, trash.

>>11643454
Well, in my first run of E-7, I got Nagato. However, I feel really annoyed considering I already had 3 of them and this probably drained my luck for Yahagi.

Large ship building coming mid-late December. Why do they keep pushing it back? I'm so tired of waiting.

>>11643462
details of this?

>>11643464
Special item required for using.
Can be acquired from certain nodes or cash shop.

>>11643454
I as well got a Zuikaku when I finished clearing E3. Now I'd stop farming if only I got a Shoukaku even if there's still a couple of girls I don't have. Funny how she was the CV I wanted the most when I started the game, now I have every other CV except for her, fucking RNG.

Is there any confirmation that luck actually affect the compass in E-5?
There is no comment on the wikiwiki about it.
I tried ktkm, ooi and yukikaze so far and all of them still can send me to NE. What I notice so far is, when I dont use support, my chances of going to the boss node is much much higher.
I think we need to do more testing on this.

What level ships are needed for E-5?
I have everyone at 60-70 and can barely hit the flagships even with double damage and then get day battle at second node half of the time.
Sparkling everyone like this takes more time than the boss to regen back half of her HP.

>>11643491
>day battle at second node
Use vertical on all nodes. Why is everyone so worried about taking damage? Even a crit only bring you to orange with vertical.

>>11643491
sparkle up to maximum morale. that way you can do 4 sparkle runs in a row without re-sparkling.

>>11643494
I use vertical on all nodes.

>>11643498
And how did you get into day battle?
Did you put minisub on kitaooi?
Any leftover should be wiped by them.

>>11643501
No, I put 2*15.5cm and damecon since I don't want to risk their lives at the boss, is it that bad?

>>11643501
I can't count the times my KitaOoi decided to torpedo the same enemy. the one with 2 hp left.

>>11643513
You might as well bring another CA if you don't wanna put midget subs on your CLT.

>>11643513
no wonder you are failing. you are never going to s rank the boss node consistently if you don't take risk.

>>11643513
Bringing red ships to the boss is a bad idea anyway whether they have damecon or not and they won't sink if they didn't enter the node red so put them midget sub.

>>11643513
I don't even use damecon and cleared E-5 with no ships sunk. Put the damn midget subs since they work wonders on boss node. This works much better since you increase the damage done to the enemies.

>>11643528
It's okay, I believe in orange, but not so much in the boss day -> night transition with someone getting red in the day phase.

>>11643540
if the transition is automatic its safe
if you have to decide you want to go night battle, its not ( in red )

>>11643540
You obviously haven't used sacrificial ships, I guess your love for your kanmusu is admirable, else you'd be sure that ships won't sink even after transitions.

>>11643552
Even if the transition is manual it is still safe. Ironbottom-chan deal fucking pathetic damage to red ships. Of course if your ships sank, you would be the unlucky 0.0001% teitoku playing the game now. You might as well go buy a lottery if you are that lucky.

284/456 resources used for middle route
Fuck, I guess it is worth it without the NE trolling.

What is a good amount of radars? I have two Type 32, one Type 13/22 and plenty 21s. Are just the 32 enough or should I mix in some air radars as well?

>>11643629
What recipe did you use for your 32s?

>>11643631
10/11/251/250

Why is my support fleet (109) not doing anything during the day battle for E-4? I'm using 2BB 4CV.

>>11643616
agree
NE 80%

>>11643639
Try 110.

Welp,the boss gauge is empty and i'm out of buckets.
I guess i'm done with E-5,i'll farm E-3 and say farwell to Musashi.

>>11643632
Just pulled a Type 22 and 3 failures with it. That's good enough for me. I didn't like what I was getting from my 10/10/250/250s.

What's the highest single damage one ship has done under your watch?
My Yukikaze managed to deal 734 damage with a cutin on E-4 to a elite DD.

>>11643616
I tried the middle route for E7 just for the hell of it and to see how much it would cost me if I tried to maximize on them. Main fleet consisted of Musashi, Nagato, Mutsu, Ise, Yamashiro, Fusou and support fleet was made up of the Kongous, Hibiki, and Ikazuchi. Total costs for repairs and resupplying was 1851 fuel, 1248 ammo, and 1982 steel.

>>11643645
That seems to have worked, thanks. When I originally said 2BB I meant 2DD, woops. Anyway, is the support fleet attack RNG based or is 109 for a fleet of 4 and 110 for a fleet of 6?

>>11643674
So, did you S rank it?

>>11643674
>Total costs for repairs and resupplying was 1851 fuel, 1248 ammo, and 1982 steel.
This is what happened when you used slow and useless ship like Hotel Yamato. Did you S it?

>>11643454
I finally picked up a Mutsu during my E5 runs and then 2 runs later, I picked up a Nagato. I wish I had this luck now so I could get Yahagi and then stop caring about this event.

>>11643665
I don't remember the exact number or even the map but it was either in E4 or E5. My Kitakami hit one of the top 3 enemy ships (might have been on the enemy flag) for over 800 damage with 400+ double shots.

A retarded question, but do submarines count as ships when you go on a sortie?

Finally cleared E5 last night, here's a log of runs/drops for those interested.

I didn't notice much difference between sparkling and not. Also E5 = E4 in difficulty, but for different reasons.

>>11643696
Why wouldn't it?

>>11643681
>>11643683
>Did you S
Hell no. I got an A-rank and an Aoba for it. Top is what they were at entering night battle and bottom is how it ended.

>>11643701
BBs are shit at night combat. More news at 11.

>>11643706
Why can't you give us the news now?

Can this event end already so I'd stop wasting my resources on shitty drops.

>>11643701
I think 3kongou and friends is the best way to do the middle route unless you have high lvl CA.

>>11643728
Kinugasa Kai 2 ftw

>>11643699
Care to share your equipment? I'm running the exact same fleet with Hiei instead of Kongou.

I'm also looking for any excuse to stop sparkling because this is a huge pain in the ass.

>>11643738
>I'm also looking for any excuse to stop sparkling because this is a huge pain in the ass.
A friend told me that supposedly even with the time it takes to sparkle, it still saves time compared to trying to clear without sparkling. I cleared E5 using full sparkles about 90% of the time and without a support expedition.

>>11643738
Kongous: 46cm x2, sanshiki, 32 radar
CL(t): 20.3cm, 15.5cm, mini-sub
DD: 10cm, 12.7cm, damage control

If you put the DD in slots 4 and 6, and use 2-line formation, they will usually be the ones targeted.

>>11643762
It's not so much about the time. It's that I'd rather wait for fatigue to wear off while doing other things instead of actively placing my full attention on the game.

However, I just S ranked the boss the second time reaching her so I guess I'll suck it up and keep sparking. Got Kumano too.

>>11643774
Huh, almost the same equipment too. That's a huge boost to my confidence. The positioning thing is interesting so I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

How hyped are you for this?

>>11643782
what's this?

>>11643782
Go back to /a/ with your edgy doujinshi artists.
I'm sure you'd get tons of replies there.

So I did E2 with 4 damage to my ships in total (an 8 minute downtime for repair)
And I didn't even manage to scratch the boss, despite annihilating every other ship in the enemy fleet. What's the trigger for day battle? If it went into day battle, I would have wiped him out like it was nothing.

>>11643786
Elite DD are alive before night battle ends

>>11643787
>go back to /a/
>with doujinshi

>>11643783
Fatalpulse's new doujin.
>>11643787

You got it the other way around, /jp/ is for inappropiate sexual behaviors, which touhou would you fuck (Or kanmusu in this case) and onahole threads.

If it's porn then not at all.

>>11643782
>Fatalpulse
>Zuikaku and shoukaku
I really don't like where this is going

>>11643782
Yes, unless it's only two pages of actual fucking again.

>>11643802
Point me to those fucking threads, because I don't see any on the /jp/ I browse.
/a/ on the other hand has "I want to fuck ___" every 5 posts.
Also, onaholes are Christianity-approved. My pastor (who's also a /jp/spie) told me so.

Eugh, this is disgusting. I wish you could prioritize a single ship for fire even just once per sortie.

>>11643813
You're not forced or paid to play this game in case you forgot

Just tried the middle route again with a glittering main fleet and support of 3 Kongous, 2 DDs, and Suzuya. This has got to be one of my best runs ever. S cleared it but unfortunately got a Mutsu, which I already have.

So, how rare is it for a sub to drop of 4-1?

>>11643813
That will never happen. Much of the game's difficulty comes from the bullshit RNG. Unless they overhaul the combat system into something resembling a proper tactical RPG, getting to pick who to shoot will just unbalance the game.

>>11643820
just make it so you can set 1 priority target and there is an increased chance ( like, instead of equal chance for all, its now 40% target and 60% random something ) that your ships will hit it. Once they attacked priority target once the assignment vanishes. attacking and missing counts as attacking. That would keep most of the bullshit but make it not quite galaxy level frustrating

>>11643824
The point is in removing the bullshit. Adding yet another RNG element won't make it any better.

>>11643828
perhaps you should read the post again ?

It's hilarious to watch some people get so incredibly angry at just E-3.

>>11643838
where?

>>11643840
twitter. I'm following Kuugen, notoriously angry german lesbian, and she's been having one rage fit after another for the last week non-stop. E-1 was hilarious, E-2 was even more hilarious and E-3 right now is just golden

>>11643842
How does anyone get angry at E-1?

>>11643857
she went through there after playing for like 5 days or something. no carriers or I think one light carrier. and it kept trolling her with crits
also, she has the patience of... well, that little patience is a class of its own.

>>11643873
Why is a girl playing this game?
To get nerd boy appeal?

>>11643889
why do lesbians look at other girls? the same reason men do

>>11643892
Lesbians don't exist outside of fiction though.

>>11643892
Because of their penis?

>>11643897
you've been here on /jp/ for too long

>>11643873
I cleared E-1 without a carrier and also around 5 days though, how is it rage inducing at all in any way?

Or is it just because I'm not a girl that's why I don't get angry needlessly

>>11643941
she basically has level zero tolerance for RNG bullshit. How she managed to get this far without murdering someone is completely beyond me

>>11643950
Why would anyone with level zero tolerance for RNG bullshit play a game full of nothing but RNG bullshit?

>>11643966
A masochist?

>>11643966
Attentionwhore yourself because it's popular?

>>11643969
there are a lot other things she could do to get more attention. writing any of her damn fanfics for example

>>11643966
don't ask me. when someone asked her, she said she didn't know it was all RNG and now her pride doesn't allow her to back down.

>>11643966
Because she's a lesbian.

I swear that the RNG is watching me or something. I've been wanting another CAvi for some time, and it's been no good drop whatsoever, and just now I've crafted Suzuya without even thinking about it.

Yubari's the same. Daily netted me yet another...

>>11643977
declaring that you're a lesbian is best way to attract d/u/mb twitter tards

He's probably starving from buying extra docks, expect more vore fantasy.

>>11643699
Thank you for the report, looks like I have a shot at the stage now. I just hope I won't lose any more damage control than I already have.

Out of curiosity, how was your support fleet? I have to use a couple of low-level DD and CA on my main fleet, so I was wondering whether the level 90 BBs on the support fleet could compensate.

How is carrier damage calculated? Is firepower used at all, if the carrier has only planes mounted?

Any new good MMD videos?

E7 runs are murdering my ammo stock.

>>11644039
Damn, stop asking that every thread. Can't you search for the new ones and decide which one you like ?

The boss gauge hasn't moved in 4 hours. Fuck.

>>11644039
I'm sick of seeing only playthroughs and MMD videos when I go through Moontube. Disgusting.

>>11644039
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm22290896

>>11644043
the support fleet cost > actual fleet cost for me due to the number of times i had to go back.

remodelling Iku, worth it? don't really have a second turbine to equip onto her though

>>11644060
That's the thing! I am actually feeling that it would be cheaper to craft those ships than trying to farm for them at this rate.

I am not sure if S rating is doable without support fleet on the other hand. Without support fleet, facing down all three fortresses is very likely, and those really fuck with any chance of killing the flagship by night battle.

>>11644074
Can someone confirm that they implemented the aircraft carrying sub = sub for expeditions thing yet?

>>11644074
I remodeled Iku. damage boost is very noticeable. you will need to do that if you need Iku to kill shit.

Well E5 farm was depressing. I just finished the 170 buckets that I had left after clearing the event. Most of the runs I had were S rank, yet I couldn't manage to get Yahagi. There were some nice drops that I didn't have before but it still feels like I lost.

>>11644093
170 buckets... did you sink around 25k worth of resources into it btw?

>>11644089
>>>/wiki/

Only play sparingly for some time.
Revving it up only to upgrade my favorite gun maker, and styling up the room.

>>11644093
Shoukaku drops in E5?

>>11644099
not on the wiki

>>11644093
That's a pretty decent haul. I wouldn't be too upset.

I haven't cleared E-5 but at this point I think I'm just going to quit if I get Yahagi and Agano since I have little interest in getting Musashi.

>>11644097
No, it's actually closer to ~16k of each.

>>11644103
Yes.

Second Nagato from E7, why god

>>11644106
But it actually is.
http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Expedition

>>11644106
it is on the wiki

>>11644100
This is my room atm. Saving up for Nagato took 3 weeks of nonstop expedition 6.

>>11644109
What's your setup? Do you sparkle and are you using 2xDD 2xCVL for support expedition?

>>11644109
Time to move to E7, jp wiki didn't have her listed as a drop there.

>>11644118
It wasn't even an S rank drop iirc, just A rank.

>>11644115
So many good tables to buy, but i only have 1 coin.

Shining really does make a huge difference in E-5. I guess I can't afford to be lazy.

>>11644135
almost all the tables require the furniture fairy anyway

>>11644142
I just want to play mahjong with my girls.

They'll add a Christmas tree next maintenance right? furniture fairy required

>>11644093
You don't have Kaga before?

>>11644167
No, I never did the CV recipe except for one time that resulted in Zuikaku. Getting Zuikaku allowed me to pick up Akagi and I didn't really even try to get others.

>>11644176
God damn, son. I tried the fucking recipe at least 8 times, and no CV

>>11644178
Its better to just get them from drops, I got all CVs from drops and am only missing Kaga and Zuikaku, only Zuihou from the CVLs

E-4 is depressingly hard. ;_;

>>11644182
You tell me. I give up after i never see the boss for 2 days straight.
I even plowed on with medium damage and only retreating if i ever got huge damage.

>>11644183
I'm more surprised by the fact that you didn't get Kaga as drops before.

>>11644153
>http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm22265508
Naka!!! You look like Ikeda Kana, the cat that got NTR'd.

>>11644191
It's even more depressing when you see other admirals with a similar fleet setup and same strats succeeding just because they got better RNG and that E-5 could have been done if E-4 RNG didn't suck so damn much.

>>11644073
True. There is no risk of risking a ship by mistake by crafting. Well its only for a limited time, its fine to do it anyway, just keep the anger levels in check.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm22249140

In memory of the stupid Teitoku that lost a Hiei in E-4.

>>11644216
What a moron.
If she spent that time spent singing swimming instead, she'd have survived.

>>11644153
>>11644201

>>11644211
That's the thing... the crane sisters and Nagato are pretty much what I wanted really.

Heck, I am starting to wonder if A-grade clear is possible with subs. Running support fleet that is almost guaranteed to get to the boss node isn't so horrible. You basically give up on S grade when you run subs, but fuck spending 500 ammo and not even getting to boss!

>>11644224
Is that bucket for when she pisses herself?

>>11644216
That was nice, any more you suggest watching?

Has anyone here tried using Mutsu for support expedition for any statistically significant number of tries? I wonder if her absurd firepower stat has any significant effect on the bombardment.

>>11644224
I forgot to add that I ran subs to take out 2 bars from E5 boss before I gave up and used normal 2x Kongou clear. I was frustrated with subs only because they do pitiful amount of dmg on the boss, not because they couldn't make it. On the other hand, I was furious with the RNG redirection to NE node with the normal clear, and it's really this redirection that ate up most of my ammo and fuel!

Fuck.

>>11644229

And of course, I meant Musashi, not Mutsu.

>>11644229
I've tried adding Mutsu and Nagato into my support expedition. When I noticed that the damage difference is ~20 in total I said fuck it and just went back to using 2CV 2DD

>>11644229
I do find that more firepower somewhat helps, but only to an extent. Running 2DD 2 CVL is effective enough. Best I've gotten from support was 2 forts down, with 3x BB or with the 2CVL.

E2 boss battle. Boss got away with SIX HP.
Suffering ending when?

Empty bar E-5 boss just survived with 20 hp, then gave me Yahagi for not killing her.
She is so nice, I don't want to kill her for a Musashi now.

>>11644245
when you finally finish off E5 boss.

>>11644245
Someone had the boss with ONE HP. It won't end unless you get extremely lucky. This was my 10th time reaching the boss, though >>11642000

>>11644249
lucky you. I didn't anything good from that boss even with all the S grade clears. Took me 30 runs at that.

>>11644251
I was hyped when I fired off a torpedo, but of course it missed.

When do ranks reset? At the exact end of the month?

>>11644233
>>11644234

So there's really no tangible difference between 2DD 2CVL and 2DD 2CV 2BB? Most I can count on is having the forts wiped out? I do recall my BB-toting supports did take down the forts when I cleared E5, but I thought that's because they were there and a 2CVL expedition wouldn't have managed even that much.

>>11644286
I'm doing 2 DD 2 CV, not 2 DD 2 CVL tho.

>>11644250
I finished E5 and the suffering hasn't ended.

Nagato where? Yahagi where? Naganami where?

>>11644286
>no tangible difference between 2DD 2CVL and 2DD 2CV 2BB
If it can't manage much more than sinking two forts, no.

>>11644290
>Nagato where?
Come on, don't start bitching about that shit drop that everyone had multiples of even before the event started.

Where do I order a Kaga Kotatsu?

>>11644286
Adding 2 BB certainly makes a tangible difference.
Mutsu and Nagato loaded with 3x46 and AP each with Chitochiyo and 2 DDs managed to take all 3 forts and damage the princesses a couple of times. If I wasn't so OCD about not mixing main guns of different bore sizes, loading up a 41 as the last gun would probably have increased their damage even more as well.

>>11644303
That's not a setup for E7 though. You have to spend around 300+ ammo to roll Mutsu and Nagato with the DD and CVL.

DD and CVL cost 64/100 per run by themselves, that I remember.

It's so retarded that 2-4 trolled me hard then I cleared it with solo Iku on the 3rd try (the first she actually got to the boss)...

>>11644313
It depends on if you believe (until someone does a thorough investigation) whether the additional S ranks gained by having 2 BBs is worth the cost.

So the wiki suggests that you don't really modernize your ships if you'll remodell her later. But that doesn't mean that I should run with 1 star Kongou until lvl75, right?

Level 90 Musashi in PvP earlier, how do you folks tear through levels that fast??

>>11644336
They do gain stats eventually by leveling up ( yes, even FP, defense, torpedo and AA. just write down stats of a ship, level it up a bit and check again, most notable with subs ) but its save to modernize them to full if the next remodel is more than 30 levels away

>>11644338
Well, it's quite easy if you have the resources.

>>11644336
Eventually you hit your ship cap and need to modernize stuff that's further away from remodel. Torp and armor stat especially aren't a big deal. Anti air is the hardest to get, so it's good to try to max the anti-air stat of any remodeled ships.

>>11644336
If you're going to be using them it's always worth it to at least max everything but AA. Once you get somewhere in the game you'll be rolling in modernization material anyway. I've seen people take the wiki's advice and apply it to subs, which is ridiculous. The wiki isn't all knowing. If it isn't a level 20 final remodel or something I'd say always go for it.

>>11644339
>>11644344
On that note. Is it worth leveling Firepower (or AA even) on CLs that are stocked with plains only?

>>11644350
Yes, firepower directly affects the CVLs attack damage during the shelling phase even if they are equipped only with PLANES. Read the wiki next time. Combat page for this info, to be specific.

>>11644350
why in the world would you load CLs with planes only? thats downright stupid

also, fuck this capcha shit, Its a massive pain to make even a single post

>>11644353
Those are bomber IIRC. I use 4xrare torpedo.
Well, maybe that's retarded.

>>11644354
No one's forcing you to post in /jp/.

>>11644359
"torpedo" on your CVL are bombers as well.

Anon who lost Kongou to a stupid move during the event, after many failed attempts at a BB craft which led to getting Hiei, and even fucking getting Kirishima who was the last Kongou sister I needed for 4th fleet, I've finally crafted another Kongou.

>>11644354
>why in the world would you load CLs with planes only?
Your opponent brought four submarines to PvP and you only have 12 combined sonar and depth charge.

>>11644362
But she's not the one you sent to the depth of the cold water, to be forever alone, crying in the dark.

>>11644364
With 3x 46cm cannons, goddamn I gave her my best equipment.

>>11644364
I'm pretty sure they're the exact same person.

>>11644367
Do you want to be congratulated on playing like an idiot and losing your precious kanmusu and equipment? Congrats.

Cut-in or double attack?

>>11644371
Yes please.

>>11643491 and
>>11644249 here
Finally, I did E-5, even got a Naganami on my last try. I got Agano on my third try at E-3 boss too, what is this?

Took me 13 hours, 130 buckets and 20k/10k/15k/7k resources, I got day battle on half of the second nodes, I guess because I didn't have any 46cm, though it still wasn't as annoying as E-4.
I started sparkling Kitaooi after the HP bar was empty, it wasn't worth doing it before, got no 16 hours to play.

Sorry for the blogging.

>>11644377
I'm waiting for the day when they change beaver. I just can't stand her face. Looks too brain damaged for me

>>11644375
800 damage kitaooi cut-in or bust.

>>11644388
double dmg for E5. You need the 15.5cm for the AA as well. Rolling sanshikidan as well in order to minimize the effect of the opening bombardment.

>>11644396
15.5 cm doesn't do AA by itself.

>>11644418
>>11644396
Thought that sanshikidan is required, or does the + AA rating apply even without it?

>>11644446
well without something to shoot, the AA isn't very useful
Sanshiki makes them shoot planes regardless of cannons

>>11644387
She was so cute though when:
Boss: 沈みなさい！
雪風: 雪風は沈みません！
I can't hate her now.

anyone here using that sanaechan thing or kancolle viewer? I tried following the FAQ for sanaechan but I don't really get how the tool is supposed to get data ( or what menu does what )

any help please?

>>11644460
Wrong, Maya with 2x 20.3 + radar + Sanshiki will not participate in the opening air raid. Test it yourself.

>>11644388
Isn't the damage capped at 320+modifiers or something? That's what I remember reading, and that's exactly why double attack is more useful.

>>11644470
can't test that because I have no sanshiki.

was just following the wiki since every time someone asks anything here people will go WIKI WIKI READ THE WIKI WIKI WIKI WIKI
so I did.

>>11644387
Bad art is 70% of the appeal.

>>11644470
Because you put sanshiki on the last slot.

E-4 is seriously demoralizing

I guess this is as far as my luck can take me I can't even reach the boss node.

What were you guys using to reach the boss to chip the gauge away? an all out attack from 100% to 0 is out of my capabilities now like I did from E-1 to E-3.

>>11644547
I rolled 2 Kongous, KTKM and Ooi. I basically took Maya and non-CA Mogami to remodel and forced them in.

>>11644547
You can use the throwaway DD tactic or start using your damecons. From some posts and screenshots I've seen, those that use the former usually had 2 hitters, either mainstays of their fleet or low level Kongou-class BBs.

So what are the chances that the event ships will become drops/craftable? I know that Musashi will be hoarded away like Yamato, but what about the submarines and CLs?
How long am I looking at waiting for a chance to craft them?

>>11644556
1~2 months.

>>11644556
You can craft them later on. Kumano and Suzuya are examples of this, and I think that the subs are going that way as well.

I am worry about the holo drop only ship right now though. Achtacht will be very hard to get as a gold sub, nevermind Yahagi.

>>11644556
2 months at best

How about the torpedo from E-3?
Last event's equipment still isn't craftable right?

>>11644556
I've seen a twitter post saying that they will be obtainable but exact dates haven't been disclosed. It's not really something to worry about. One way or another you're going to throw away a lot of resources to get the ships you want.

>>11644579
Right now the only event ship I want is AchtAcht.
I already know that I'll never get Musashi.

How much of a bad idea is using a sub at E-4 to redirect most of the fire away from my heavy hitters?

>>11644578
that torp might not be craftble. Even the quintuple torp isn't craftible.

>>11644588
pretty bad. the real problematic units are CA and BB and they cant attack subs anyway

>>11644588
>Throwaway sub runs
DO IT!

>>11644588
This is what I used to beat E4. High level sub is good at drawing enemy fire.

Guys, if I put 3x10cm on Shigure, will she still do double attack or is it counted as cut-in setup with 3main gun?

>>11644588
It makes the first node a freebie unless you get unlucky with the CA showing up. I did it with the fodder strategy for a while and barely lost a ship. The entire map relies on you barely surviving at orange health so removing half the enemy ships from the equation makes a big difference. It also means one less damage control if she's decked out and you don't put her in flagship and since she's kinda worthless at the boss node there's a better chance of reaching day. Just try it a few times, you'll be stuck on E-4 for a while anyway.

>>11644606
no

>>11644606
double attack or cut-in. You are likely to get cut-in with shigure kai2 though, with that 50 luck.

>>11644599
Who are you qouting? Just kidding.
>>11644588
Anyway, I'm actually someone who tried using a sub at E-4 and it worked just fine though I should have used Goya instead of Iku seeing how good Yukikaze performed for most people. Though don't take my word for it since I also used a CV at E-4 thinking Kaga would have max ammo during the day phase and would wreck the boss, I never got around to seeing what damage she would have done since for some odd reason the enemy got her to moderate damage all the time.

>>11644603
T-level 91
All ships below 60
That's pretty hilarious.

>>11644611
So it works like this, if cut-in fail fallback to double attack?
Or is it just random and you might get a single attack?
I am trying to find the best composition for the middle route. Need to compensate for the huge AA stats loss from removing 1BB.

>>11644624
because I was having too much fun with this!

>>11644625
It doesn't fall back to a double attack, it's a cut-in or bust.

>>11644624
>>11644628
I actually had to read lowbie's guide to do E4 and E5 tbh. I spent the time to try sub cheesing E5 for a few days. It got my Achtacht from 36 to 65 in a day, but didn't do anything to the boss, and constant B rating didn't get me any good drop whatsoever.

Why is everyone playing this game?
>/a/
>/jp/
>/c/
>/u/

>>11644665
Because it's the next touhou, except financially successful.

Is there a guide to running 2-3 with subs?

>>11644603
Wait, if such a fleet can beat E4, then maybe it's time for me to try E2....

>>11644676
Friendly reminder that if you're autistic enough you can beat it with a level 1 fleet.

>>11644675
pray for dodge
max out defense
pray for dodge
pray for dodge
pray for killing the DD/CL
dont bother with night battle

>>11644676
look. what it boils down to is to have enough sanshikidan, sparkle and RNG luck. Everyone carrying sanshikidan made killing Henderson-chan much more manageable.

>>11644676
I've been running E2, with decent results (the bar is about halfway depleted) with this fleet.
So yeah, it's not like E2 is hard or anything.

>>11644665
Wait. It's in 4 boards? Seriously, why don't just stay at one?

>>11644668
As a touhou fan, I am depressed.

>>11644680
nope. you can score a win and shave hp from boss, but you will never kill henderson-chan doing this.

>>11644681
Luck can be countered by simply having enough resources.

>>11644681
>sparkle
God, I hate that mechanism to hell
>>11644680
>>11644681
>>11644684
The only issue is that my teitoku level is low, so I can't accumulate enough resources to even have a chance on E4-5. Also, not enough buckets.

>>11644688
Because no self respecting misunderstood genuis wants to interact with a crossboarder such as yourself.

>>11644692
Well, depends on how prepared you are. There are teitokus that burned through 25k and 150 buckets without beating E4. We that have managed to do it <13k for E4/E5 are considered rather lucky.

>>11644699
I stocked up 30k just in case, though. Anyone trying it out should. Really, you shouldn't attempt E4 unless you have a minimum of 20k.

So I just S-ranked the E5 boss fight. The drop took a while to load up, and boy I was exited, I was pretty sure that it's finally a Yahagi drop.

And then the game goes like "NOPE, FUCK YOU BUDDY, HERE HAVE THE WORST FUCKING POSSIBLE KANMUSU IN THE GAME"

God I'm so mad right now.

>>11644704
Hey, you don't actually feel that way about her. You're just mad that you didn't get Yahagi.

>>11644705
enjoying your shitty fandom kancollefags?

>>11644665
I know /a/ discuss the incoming anime and also the manga/doujin, while /jp/ discussing the game.
But, why /c/ and /u/ too? What they discussing about?

>>11644665
Is there an irc too?
That would make things alot easier, since I don't have to keep saying who I am when I post about my progress.

>>11644705
/c/ is an image dump for cute 2D girls.

/u/ is an image dump for cute 2D girls fucking.

Do the math.

>>11644705
/u/ discusses the intense gayness of the girls for their sister-ships
like Kitakami and Ooi
Chitose and Chiyoda
Fusou and Yamashiro
All Kongous
Akagi and Kaga
Tatsuta and Tenryuu
and so forth

>>11644708
You can shitpost about kancolle in #commie-subs since they do that fairly often and commie devs are into the game.

For E5, the middle route is definitely tougher than the north. I am not making it to the boss node at all. 2hit direct hit to a single ship from 3nodes and it is retreat time. But at least it is cheap.

>>11644704
That's not what spoilers are used for.
Please delete your post and do it again.

>>11644707
this.
Waiting for the fandom to die out, like SnK a few months ago.

>>11644713
way too big and growing too fast to die out

>>11644715
What does commie develop?
I thought they did anime translations.

>>11644713
SnK is still going very strong though, and will continue to grow as long as the mangaka keeps churning out interesting chapters last the last few.

>>11644719
they don't develop anything
morons just call them "devs" because thats a stupid meme that somehow has persisted these past months

>>11644711
As someone who has Chikuma as his highest leveled CA, it saddens me that she and Tone are left out in these pairings. Not because I want them to be discussed but more like people don't actually bother using them.

>>11644722
*like the last few

>>11644724
>they don't develop anything
morons just call them "devs" because thats a stupid meme that somehow has persisted these past months
Try years

>>11644718
Same with SnK they said a few months ago. Wouldn't get your hopes too high.
>>11644722
Still, it pretty much died out.

>>11644723
Chikuma and Tone don't have the most amazing art and they're kinda rare at the start. they're also not very exceptional in any way. I'd read a doujin about Wagahai seducing Chikuma though.

>>11644727
you can hope all you want for it to die out but they keep pumpking out new girls, new events and people get really attached to their favorite ships. YOU shouldn't get your hopes up too high.

>>11644723
tone arts are not moe

>>11644730
物极必反 月满则亏 It will certainly decline if they start to commercialize it too much.

>>11644727
SnK story went down the drain.

Kancolle has new event every 4months or so. The hype will never go away unless they ditch the game and stop updating it.

This a good question though, what if they ran out of girls to update?

>>11644727
Like any internet sensation, kancolle's popularity has to hit a peak and then start waning, until of course the whole thing ends/servers shut down, ending its lifespan with one last sprint of popularity. The question is whether we've hit this peak or we haven't.
I'd argue that the anime will end up being the peak of the franchise.

>>11644744
Considering they haven't even touched USN, RN or KM, I doubt they'd run out of kanmusu any time soon.

>>11644744
It's not profitable though. Will wait until they get sick of it. Not sure if the media would get them much money.

>>11644744
Kancolle II, kantai mecha musume in space fighting BETAs.
Or, Kancolle 0, pre-WWII that stars Mikasa.

>>11644744
There's still quite a lot of IJN ships not incorporated into the game say the Akizuki class. If they decide to go like WoT and include unfinished ships then more even so. And it will be a lot more if they decided to include foreign ships as well.

>>11644745
I think "we" have. To the extend of Touhou, I'm pretty sure it would. Marasy even uploaded a video of it moments ago.

>>11644744
every 3 months so far
may, august, november. probably gonna have a small christmas event

->>11644749
>not profitable
what.
have you seen the amount of money people throw at this?

>>11644756
The devs themselves have said that the game itself isn't very profitable, and that they're planning on selling merchandise and goods to make profits.

>>11644756
>profitable
The chairman of the board of directors of Kadokawa Group Holdings, Yoshihiko Kadokawa, stated that despite the game's popularity, Kantai Collection is nearly unprofitable for the company, in part due to the game being funded by various company partnerships.

From wikipeedia

>>11644760
I feel that Kadokawa is betting on the anime to drive in profit.

>>11644744
Why kc won't be going away soon :
Here are some cute girls and their base personality, now go crazy. Pixiv artists picked it up and carry the rest until something better comes.

It's the same recipe of how im@s' CG got huge.

>>11644760
Bring on the figures

>>11644755
That Marasy arrangement was pretty disappointing besides 0:59.

>>11644760
not VERY profitable and being not profitable entirely are two very big differences
and people will buy merchandise of this. a LOT.

>>11644762
I wonder from when that statement is.


Let me buy Kongou and Hiei figures already so I can put them together in a hand crafted miniature bed.

>>11644760
That's mostly them covering for the costs of expansion. That report gets blown out of proportion a lot, the game is keeping afloat and they're expecting huge profits off merchandising, some of which has already sold like crazy. By the time the next event comes around things will probably be stable but I see people acting like the sky is falling and they're going to shut the game down. It takes a lot more than you think to cope with this level of popularity and that's way more than they had at the time.

>>11644760
Most people already ran out of storage space.
You have gotta spend money to buy more storage to get all the new girls. It is a goldmine to be honest.

>>11644760
And kancolle is still very much a free game. Spending a bit of money on docks doesn't bring much money even if a ton of people do it, compared to mobile games where people are shelling out hundreds of dollars to play a gacha.

>>11644744
>what if they ran out of girls to update?
I wonder what happens when they run out of room in that in-game library thing. Will they stop adding girls then? Or maybe they will just completely redesign that screen to add more room.

>>11644771
>merchandise
Have you ever seen people crazing over mobile games merchandise? True, they buy it, but only a small portion.

>>11644771
Without the actual figures, we can only guess from the tone of that interview. Considering just how fucking high the number of daily active users is (400k+), the reasonable cash shop item "requirement" and pricing barely covering the servers' costs makes sense. I'm sure they'll rake in money with the merchandises though.
>a LOT.
Also, please stop typing like that.

>>11644780
Can't blame him. He is most probably new.

>>11644772
It's obvious that this game can stay afloat. However, the post of was quoting was claiming that this game was a big financial success. Something like Pazudora is a big financial success.
This game itself is a modest success if anything.

>>11644777
except this isn't a mobile game
in fact, playing on a phone is OFFICIALLY discouraged

>>11644785
Games come and go. The next thing you know, a new game gets released and everyone goes hype on it instead.

>>11644767
This.
Im guessing the imas game is taking a major hit from kc right now.

>>11644786
Type-moon, Im@s, Vocaloid and Touhou were all from pre 2010.
When was the last time a franchise actually got so big in niconico?

Musashi sure gets lively after the remodel.

>>11644791
SnK?

>>11644791
Does SnK count? These things fade, but we have to see C86 to know more. There were pretty good reasons why Touhou wasn't commercialized.

>>11644795
>>11644800
snk didn't even reach madoka level of popularity to be honest.

>>11644801
I frequently dominated pixiv rankings, as well as mmd video charts.

>>11644801
Google trends to show you how that's not true.

It doesn't matter what level of super popular KanColle is at.
All that matters is that it won't be going away anytime soon.
There is a VITA game coming as well.

>>11644816
That would decide it's fate. If the game critics hate it, it would be notorious instead.

I just realized that this thread has 315 posts, only 29 images, 90% being screenshots.
Where's the cuteposting?

>>11644820
on /c/ and /u/ respectively
you can find disgusting het porn of KC on /a/

>>11644820
Why is atago long

>>11644820
I wish she looks like that, the body curve of Atago and Takao is all wrong in the game.

Just a question guys, which area is currently more effective in grinding for points for your admiral rank?

E-5? 5-2? or the good o' but unreliable 2-3?

>>11644851
i think 2-3. e5 is an expensive way to grind t level.

>>11644819
The gameplay of kancolle is not selling point. It is all about the girls and their ww2 history.

Agano has a DD voice, but a CL body. I'm not sure how I feel about this.

>>11644886
Yeah. History. Critics won't like it though. They dislike weeb shit.

>>11644909
Famitsu only cares about how much the developers pay them.

My body has been filled with hope

Also while I'm at it I thought subs couldn't target Henderson-chan at all?because my Iku fired a normal attack at her at the start of the night battle and did 49 damage.

>>11644886
pretty much. kancolle is about the ships and it's the story behind them that sticks with the players.

>>11644914
Only subs can for some reason

i just started the game yesterday and spent time crafting BBs, CAs. Is there any way to beat E1?

>>11644927
you need carriers and your shit needs to be like lvl 20+

>>11644914
You just used up all your luck in killing henderson-chan. Good luck doing the final blow once the hp bar is depleted.

>>11644935
You don't NEED carriers, I did it without the first few times.
That said, they do help and he probably doesn't have the volume of BBs to make up for having low level ships.

>>11644935
you ought to get your ships to the point that they can be remodeled.

FUCK YEAH
I AM DONE WITH THIS SHITTY EVENT

>>11644932
Yeah I only got 75 buckets and 9k steel

now I'm torn if I let her repair and use my time to gather enough resources for a all out attack in a few days or take this chance and try to finish her off in one go.

I feel the RNG goddess telling me "Its now or never idiot go all out" but still...

>>11644948
Not your blog, no one cares.

>>11644954
So what do you want to talk about then?

>>11644954
I like seeing the accomplishments of my senior teitokus as a new player.

>>11644940
>>11644935
thanks, ill keep grinding expedition 5 and sortie 1-1-1

>>11644966
Keep a Shigure, a Yuudachi and a Hibiki around to level them up.

>>11644966
>1-1-1
Do a CV recipe and get Akagi from the quest. Grind on 2-2 instead.

>>11644961
If you lost a ship, post a story so we can feel better about ourselves. Classic schadenfreude.

Seriously though, stories about your experiences are fine, but YAHAGI GET shitposting should be kept to the English wiki.

>>11644974
you're just mad you don't have yahagi

My Mutsu is almost ready to remodel, I feel like I've finally accomplished something.

>>11644974
You expect these faggots who are new to 4chan in general to follow standard of practice around here?

>>11644975
of course we're fucking mad
you would be mad too
and yes, "SHIP GET" posts are shitposting

>>11644980
No proper capitalization and punctuation in your posts are considered shitpost as well.

>>11644975
I actually do have her, I just didn't mention it because I enjoy the feeling of a self-righteous holier-than-thou feeling when I post. That still doesn't excuse shitposting though.

>>11644979
I think you're the one who is new.
Also, /jp/ is not 4chan.
Posting on /jp/ requires transitioning into a completely different mindset than that used on other boards.

i regret everything i have ever done

>>11644984
Aren't we elitist now

Also, wow, people making a big deal out of capitalizing words and punctation. On 4chan. It's so ridiculously absurd that I don't even know what to say.

except fuck you i dont give a shit about punctation and capitalization

>>11644991
Are you retarded?

>>11644984
>/jp/ is not 4chan
>implying /jp/ is elite
>jesus christ
>u must live a meaningful life

>>11644984
This is what people who came here after the split actually believe. /jp/ is, and has always been, a containment board.

>>11644991
Great job teitoku!

>>11644991
Haha! What a scrub.

>>11644998
i am starting to think so

>>11644991
How the fuck did you do that, why did you keep her as a flagship??

... was she orange or red?

>>11644991
There are people still stupid enough to go into a new node with a red damaged event only ship.

>>11644996
If you're looking for the containment board, you should just go back to /a/.

>>11645004
Was using someone else for more exp. I tabbed out during battle and forgot about it. Came back an hour later and just went without looking.

>>11645006
Nope. Just playing around 4-1. Nothing new. I'm dumb.

>ERROR Be unjust Request Products

Oh, ok.

Paying this much for a chance to get Kumano and Nagato isnt that bad.

>>11644971
the RNG gods are hating me since after many sorties and burning fuel, it wont let compass me to the boss in 1-3

man sparkling an entire fleet is fucking annoying, but definitely a must if going for S-rank on the boss. finally got my first 46cm from Musashi.

also you guys are liars. 45ish A/S ranks on E-5-1 and haven't gotten a single sub yet (or anything else worth mentioning for that matter).

>>11645028
You're fucking retarded, that's all I have to say after trying to comprehend your shitpost.

>>11645028
> first 46cm
pfft ahahaha. Good work on finishing the event with just 41cm guns.

The subs's drop rate are probably 2% each on that node. It's not that surprising.

>>11645037
not as shit as your whining shitpost

>>11645035
>probably 2% each on that node
i remember someone using the phrase "like candy" and getting my hopes up because i don't have a Goya yet. oh well.

>>11645037
i don't know what's so confusing about it, but i apologize.

>>11645045
>I don't have a Goya yet
I feel sorry for you, I'm grappling with E2 and don't even think I'll be able to handle E3, and I have a Goya.

>>11645045
I didnt lie though. They are definitely common, see >>11643454. I just got another Imuya off today run. You just need to get more Perfect S. Maybe ranking does actually affect the drop rate.
The irony is, I still dont have an Agano.

>>11645056
In a way it does. Say for example you're always getting B-ranks, the chance of getting Gold background should be zero.

>>11645056
The very fact that Yahagi only drops on A or S, and that she has a double drop rate on S basically confirms that the ranking directly affects available drops.

It would be highly unlikely that they would implement a completely new drop formula just for Yahagi instead of simply putting her into the preexisting algorithm.

I can do it

I'm incredibly hyped right now

I can feel the blessing of the RNG goddess on me.


This will only end in either my complete victory or defeat.

65 buckets and 8k steel remain started with 80/10k

if you have 2-3 remodeled CV(L)s and 15k or more resources you can probably handle E-3. i'd recommend not wasting too many buckets on E-2 if you plan to try it (since the boss gauge doesn't regenerate).

>>11645056
>Maybe ranking does actually affect the drop rate
recently i've been noticing that it seems to increase both the drop rate and the chance that the drop will be rare (in my small sample of sorties).

>>11645080
Steel isn't what you should be worried about, fuel and ammo will generally deplete at a much higher rate.

>>11645091
I have double the amount of fuel and ammo compared to steel

the only thing really putting a dent on my resources is the repairs

>>11645100
You can always cheese with lvl1 scrap materials to save cost. Give them a chance to contribute before going into the incinerator.

>>11645100
There's a reason why people sometimes use over 20k fuel on E-4. It's used up in sorties, expeditions, and repair, so it often gets consumed at twice the rate. Sparkling everyone takes a good amount of fuel and ammo too, but greatly improves your chance of getting a kill. Just wait until she gets to 0 HP, I spend 3/4 of my time and resources just trying to get the final kill.

>>11645122
I guess shouldn't worry then since I'm running without fleet support

My biggest issue is *getting* to the boss and whenever I did get there it was always either major damage or kill.

>>11645071
Speaking of gold at E5, I did get a gold background ship. being Ooi.
That's with B finish, with subs.

Good thing about E-5 is that S rank always yields a rare ship but so far I am getting what I already have.

>>11645158
Not true, I got just got a Myoukou from an S rank.

>>11645158
Tell that to my Wagahai and Choukai

>>11645158
Not true.
S rank finish gave me Kako and Myoko. I was furious at how that all of my efforts were netting me pure crap tbh.

>>11645163
Kumano is a rare ship

>>11645158
Tell that to my Takao and Myouko class.

Is it just me or is it much harder to reach the boss now? I've been going NE all day today, and I'm using the exact same lineup as I did previously.

any good recipes on submarines?

>>11645263
No.

>>11645263
30/31/32/33/34 is pretty good

>>11645306
So what's the fifth resource? The amount of luck you need to sacrifice?

>>11645263
I think I got my Goya from the barebones rare destroyer/submarine recipe.

>>11645263
30/30/30/30 is good.

>>11645311

The amount of hatesex with the RNG Goddess required.

>>11645263
Try the normal recipe 250/130/200/30, you might lucky to get a SS.

>>11645263
Grind hardcore to beat E1 and E4 and then farm them on E5. I considered crafting as cheating.

Brilliant.

Welp, I guess that's game over for this event. E-4 drained everything in 16 hours all for nothing. Oh well, there's always next event. Time for bed.

>>11645388
It's your fault for putting such a shitty ship in the last slot.

>>11645388
Replace Mutsu with CA or even DD.

Just a little more and it shall be over...

I have to finish this before the blessing of the RNG goddess runs out.

>>11645407
>still equipping damcons
Do you not trust jaypee?

>>11645410
I trust that it is *possible* to sink at orange but that the chance is still far smaller than at red

still I would never use those otherwise.

Holy shit the compass actually let me reach the boss after two perfect nodes in E-5. Must be like a 10% chance or something.

>>11645413
>I trust that it is *possible* to sink at orange
I see that there are still people doubting /jp/.

>>11645413
For what it's worth, I just did some testing with an orange ship at red fatigue while doing my fleet sparkling. It was taken to the red during day, and came out alive at night with 1 hp.

E5 done, pic shows my start/end time and resources along with the fleet I used (date/time is Tokyo). Ships shows are the ones that I got via random drop (missing Suzuya, which I forgot to take a screencap of). Overall my net loss was as follows:

Fuel: 14,202
Ammo: 15,398
Steel: 12,397
Bauxite: +1,005
Buckets: 116

Fleet equip:
Kongou: 46cm/41cm/21 radar/12cm rockets
Haruna: 46cm/41cm/21 radar/12cm rockets
Atago: 15.5cm vice x2/21 radar/12cm rockets
Maya: 20.3cm x2/21 radar/12cm rockets
Ooi: 15.5cm vice x2/minisub
Kitakami: 15.5cm vice x2/minisub

Support fleet equip:
Zuiho: 4x red holo planes
Chitose: 4x blue holo planes
Shimakaze: 10cm main gun x3
Yuudachi: 10cm main gun x3
Hiei: 41cm x4
Mutsu: 46cm/41cm x2/91 ammo

I did move around the formation a bit as you can see from the image but I never changed weapons or used DC. It took almost exactly 7 hours and 45 minutes during which time I sortied 42 times. I encountered the boss 13 times before I got her down to <10% health, after which I had to fight her 3 more times before I finished her off. Out of the other 26 sorties, I was sent NE to the "J" node 10 times - 4 times after I had gotten her to 0% health and 3 times in a row out of those - which was really frustrating. The rest of the sorties were of course retreats due to red ships before the boss node, but overall I think I didn't do so bad. E4 took 70something sorties and a whole day to clear so this was considerably easier.

Image also shows my support fleet's impact on the final battle. My torpedo monsters took out the final fortress and heavily damaged the last princess, who died after the first shelling round. This left my entire fleet to slap the boss around a bit before the night phase, where it only took 3 ships to finish her.

So no new ships after the next maintenance? Isn't it sad, Haruna?

Shit I still havent get the 20k wallpaper.

>>11645468
Did you ever night battle with a ship that went red during the day?

>>11645521
Yes, numerous times. There were a few runs where I went into a night battle on the boss with 2-3 red ships. I'm not going to say that its "impossible" for a ship to sink in that situation, but it has never happened to me. There were a few instances where the boss would perform a cut-in attack on a red ship with 1 hp but she would always miss. Not sure if you can make a direct correlation between the fact that cut-ins "can't miss" but they did in fact miss on a ship with 1 hp.

I wouldn't risk something like that with a very rare/event only ship, or in a case where you may not have a viable replacement if that ship does in fact die. Realistically you probably aren't going to be sinking the boss during a run where you go into the night phase with several red ships as they don't do anything at night when red, but you never know - RNG is fickle as hell in this game.

>>11645537
Well, I'll give it a shot first with repairs. Time to experiment.

>>11645468
Lucky. I just started on E5. I've been rerouted to other nodes very often. Very exasperated now.

>>11645369
Just realized that Platoon poster. I'd totally watch that.

>>11645537
You wont get a S rank yes, but it is the difference between getting A and C. Always go to night battle if you have the chance to sink 4enemies.

Oh boy it looks like people are done flaunting Musashi and now it's time for Yahagi instead.

>>11645584
You say "nodes" but do you really mean multiple destinations or just the northeast "J" node? If you go the nothern route with all fast ships and 2x Kongous then you should only have a chance to be sent off-course after the purple storm node. If you go through the middle route then there is no way to be sent off-course, although you do have to deal with an extra battle via that route.

I don't think anybody chances the southern route unless they have no choice due to ship availability. It requires 3 battles before the boss node and has a chance for a deadend. There is no point risking 3 fights and a deadend when you have an alternative that gets you to the boss with zero chance of a deadend.

Being Shigure is suffering.

>>11645609
I mean the north one, yes. I suppose my stress can be seen through how lazy my typing has become. With only 4 days to go before event ends, I'm really on my wits end, and this is something completely outside my control - It's not a lineup problem, nor a weapons problem, it's motherfucking RNG.
