Here's a question for you, /jp/:

I just acquired a Type-32 Surface-Search Radar and I'm wondering what I should do with it. Immediately I thought this should replace the old Type-22 on Kongou but after taking a closer look at the bonuses it provides, I saw that it had more to offer than the C6N Myrt. The question is, should I replace the Myrts on Taihou with the Type-32 radar?

On paper, it seems that this would be a good idea. Am I, perhaps, missing something regarding the gameplay mechanics of reconnaissance aircraft? Or does what I see on paper translate into practice?

You should have a fourth fleet ready to rotate in while you sparkle one of your other fleets. There are gains to be had. These numbers are using the minimum number of ships possible, but gains generally go up as you use more sparkled ships.

Assuming it takes about 1 minute per node, so 6 minutes per ship to sparkle to full, you'd be spending 18 minutes every 4 hours for ex3, 24 minutes every 6 hours for ex2, and 24 minutes every 8 hours for ex6. You'd probably want to resparkle your secondary fleet about once per day, as well.

If you had nothing better to do, it's easily doable. Wouldn't do it myself, though.

Japan would never win a war to the United States to the bitter end. They only needed to take and hold enough of Southeast Asia to supply their war machine. They could never make the United States bend their knees, but they had a chance of coming to a negotiated settlement that didn't involve Japan losing everything.

Even domestically, though, there needed to be a lot of changes in the way the Army and Navy General Staff were run because they crippled themselves in a lot of ways.

A sub can only cut-in if she has 2+ torps. Unremodelled has 1 slot so even if you equip torps she can't cut-in with only 1 torp, so better to give her type A then. Remodelled has 2 slots so it's possible for her to cut-in with 2 torps. Since type As don't count as torps giving her a type A will prevent her from being able to cut-in.

Maruyu is a special case, she has 0 slots unremodelled and 1 slot remodelled so just give her a type A and move on.

It kind of depends on what fleet you're using. If you're bringing CAs and BBs and only using DDs for compass then just line ahead and ignore the sub. If you're using subs then obviously line ahead for torpedo damage. I used 6 DDs (then Yuubari + 5 DD for last kill) in ring formation to kill the sub and win in night battle.

Sup TTKs, I come with a minor new version of KCV, v2.1 r295.

https://github.com/Zharay/KanColleViewer/releases/tag/v2.1.0r295
-- Oh hey GitHub now allows for binary attachments...

Basically it standardizes the translation files and how it makes use of them. It also will save any untranslated items like say the new drums to the respective translation file, thus making a translation super easy (I can be lazy now!?). The translations are also dependent on the program's language. So if its in Chinese, it will switch to Chinese text (there is none now, but can be done later). You can even turn off the translations altogether.

So yea not that big a deal. Basically trying to get it setup so that it'd be added to the original version of KCV at some point in the future.

Side note - Your settings will reset with this version. Redo your settings on start up as need be.

I know people lie about how levels don't matter but they really don't at night; I don't care what the devs say.

Just knowing from the start that orange wouldn't sink you could have saved everyone a lot of trouble. With all this time to grind levels and resources and figure out the inner workings it's hard to imagine how difficult Midway will be.

>>11928546
CAs are a little awkward in that they don't get MVP as easily as BB/CV/CVL, and they can't attack subs so most of the various world 4 ASW cheesing stuff doesn't work for them like it does for DD/CL. Probably about the best you can realistically do is just repeat as many maps as possible with the mas fast as possible; 4-1 is like 3-2-a with about 1/6 chance of an enemy CA in return for two nodes per sortie (read: less fatigue), while 5-4-F is like 3-2-A but with requirements to get there (iirc 2+ CLT and <2 CV, might be wrong on the exact numbers) in return for something like 80 more base xp (400 vs the 320? of 3-2-A.

If you're cool with swapping out ships after every run or two to manage fatigue, then grinding 5-4-F is probably about the fastest way you can level 1-2CAs. If not, 4-1 is probably the best blend of cost effective and fatigue friendly you can do.

I'd love to be wrong and it turns out someone has a flawless idea that makes it super easy to level CAs, but outside of a slightly more efficient map I haven't seen much to that effect so far.

>> No.11928626

I can't believe I've been wasting resources grinding 5-2 for rank. 5-3 is sooo much easier and doesn't burn nearly as much resources.

I never did 5-3, because I thought it was just a waste of time.

But I'm getting consistent A ranks with 3 CLT and 3 DD. Maybe it's because they buffed sonars. Really wish I had attempted 5-3 earlier.

>> No.11928644

>>11928636
No, if you do what I suggested and only do 5-4-F, you run into a composition very similar to 3-2-A where it's only CLs and DDs. Almost all flagships, yes, but still only CL/DD, and at base 400 xp a pop, it's literally just a slightly harder, significantly more lucrative 3-2-A.

If you do 4-1, just do the first two nodes; if you go top route you do the first node and then the sub node, if you go SW-SW you do the same (normal+sub node), if you go SW-NW you get a shitton of fuel and then if you go W it's another sub node. The very bottom node and the far left third node are both Ta-heavy nodes, I'd honestly reset if you get sent to the far bottom node but you can always just retreat from sortie after the W-W sub node.

>> No.11928653

>>11928644
right, sorry I mistaken that as 5-3. as long I didn't bring any CV and drums I'll always get to 5-4-F

any recommendation for that node? CA(flag) 5DD double line?

>> No.11928659

>>11928653
Well you certainly want a sub to tank that stuff, that's the whole point of farming DD/CL nodes - they can only hit the sub, sub is cheap+fast to repair... yeah. I'll be completely honest with you I haven't tested the fleet composition shit thoroughly and I don't know all of the conditions but as far as I know, as long as you don't bring more than 1 CV and as long as you bring 2CLT, you will always go directly to 5-4-F.

Personally I bring 1BB 2CLT 1SS and 2CA since I've been leveling all of my Takao class girls lately and the BB ensures second shelling phase which in turn removes any worry of postbattle torpedo strike adding scratch damage to non-sub-chans, but you can always play with what you bring along based on what you want to level exactly.

Oh, just a side note, I have no idea what the fuck whatever troll anon earlier in the thread was talking about in terms of requiring CLTs to hit 5-4-F, did some testing and checked wikiwiki and it looks like the A/B/C branching rules are basically 2+ carriers=A, 4(?) drums and carrier = C, everything else is B. So you can drop the CLTs and put in whatever non-CV/CVL ships you want; DDs would work great if you're jewing resources, I just put in Takao/Atago so I can continue leveling them, whatever.

Damn, I must have gotten really lucky then. In my last 2 runs I used a sub fleet. Both runs got me to the boss node, I didn't get diverted (the diversion in pic above was from Arpeggio event where I tried 5-3 with an all sub fleet without success, but then I only tried once).

I gave up using a normal fleet after the first 3 runs, because all my subsequent runs ended in disaster and I was out of steel. I'm starting to suspect all the RNG here is time-based too because the first 2 runs of pic related were before 9 am (JST), and I only cleared it once for the next 8 or so hours before I gave up and just subcheesed.

Setup: Yuubari 4 type 3 sonars, fast BBs 2x 46cm, 1 sanshiki, 1 radar, Maya 1x 20.3 (the 7 firepower one), 2x 15.5 yellows, 1 sanshiki (couldn't be bothered to change the equips for my BBs and CAs), Yukikaze and Shigure 3x O2 quad torps.

Scratch that, my main problem was my resources. I completely burnt through my fuel after clearing that event. I managed to regain enough resources and use the fogs to clear up to 5-2 but that was it.

Now I remember why I only tried 5-3 once. No resources to try again.

>>11928998
I know. Actually after the event I ended up on focusing on training my CAs, most of them are Kai'd and remodelled now. Though I don't know why the fuck neither of the Tone class is one of them (Myoukou and Haguro being the other 2 non-Kai'd CAs).

No, what he's trying to say is that the probability distribution of success/failure varies with time. For example, perhaps at midday 20% of the output space of the PRNG function implies a success, while at night it's only 5%. There is no reason for this to depend on the seed since a proper PRNG uniformly distributes it's output. There are no "hot" or "cold" seeds.

I'm afraid I've hit the limit of my patience with 5.3, /jp/. I was expecting the searchlight to change my results but I have nothing to show for it. Most of my latest attempts were made with this fleet:

Level 98 Kongou: 18-inch x 1, 16-inch x 2, and Type-32 surface-search radar
Level 83 Hiei: 16-inch x 3 and searchlight
Level 95 Kitakami: Type-A midget submarines, 5-tube Long Lance launcher, 4-tube Long Lance launcher
Level 94 Oh'i: Same as her sister
Level 98 Yuudachi: 12.7cm Model B x 1, 10cm x2
Level 94 Shigure: 10cm x 3

All of them in their second refit forms, echelon formation until the boss, line ahead for the boss.

I've made it to the boss a handful of times but not once was the actual boss targeted. I've switched the torpedo cruisers for heavy cruisers to try to address this because the submarine made them useless at night but the results are the same. I've also tried running the destroyers with ASW loadouts but the enemy destroyers at the end of their line almost always send me packing.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. I can't try with submarines because, although they are all refit and have their upgrades maxed out, I only have 3.

I saw you had a cut-in set up on Poi, don't do that, she doesn't have the enough luck for that, replace a 10cm for a sonar, for Shigure I always go with 10cm, torpedos and radar/sonar.

In fact, just use a cut-in set up for Shigure, double atk on everyone else, including Kitakami. For the torpedo monsters just put the mini-sub and 2 15.5cm (you can replace one of them for a 10cm)

You just have to believe and keep trying.
Until last night, i thought 5-3 was a joke and nobody had actually cleared it before.
It was impossible to defeat the transport flagship for the last time until Kinugasa killed it at last.
When i had no buckets left, i changed a few things, switched Yuubari for Kitakami and went there one more time.
I threw around 280 buckets if my calculations dont fail.
This was my fleet. Used CA's, DD's and Kitakami.

I just started attempting it today, 7 attempts and I just hit the boss node now, and got an A rank with 5 subs, flagship died in first attack. Why not just use subs? And on that note why the hell is farming this first node and getting 860 exp instantly not a thing? This seems insane if you don't care about winrate on your profile, could have a level 99 sub fleet in a day or less.

I recall people jumped to conclusions right after maintenance and assumed the quest was for the 4 drawn by the same artist without even reading the names.

I was conveniently already leveling Mochizuki for marriage so all I had to do was get Yayoi kai'd and feed some ships to Mutsuki and Kisaragi.

>>11929484
I cleared it the first 4 times easily with Mochizuki, Poi, Hibiki (not Bep yet), Inazuma, Shigure, Beaver; double attack + sonar on the first 4 and cut-in + sonar on the last two, used ring formation on boss. Last kill I had to replace Mochizuki with Yuubari for double attack + 2 sonar and stuck damecon on the others in place of sonar since they were only doing chip damage to the sub anyway.

It probably would have been even easier if I had used echelon pre-boss, I was using line ahead instead and kept getting hit to red after an early streak of luck that got me a quick 3 boss kills.

Echelon is a night battle formation, or so they say, it worked for me.

Also, you need more sonars, your DD/CL must kill the sub during the day battle. Just remodel Hibiki and stuff her with ASW.

I never really noticed a profound different between formations for the night battle nodes. It's not like they stop the enemy from getting cut-ins, which is what really ruins your day. Regular attacks almost always miss and doubles do scratch damage. Cut-ins take you to orange, and eating too many along the way leaves you in a bad spot for the boss.

Then once you get to the boss you just have to hope someone plays the hero and says fuck your ring formation.

If you don't mind wasting damecon you can also stick them on Mutsukis and advance at red (if either of the good DDs are red then beating the boss will likely be too hard). I had 16 at that point and never consumed one before so I didn't mind burning one on Kisaragi when I cleared it.

Well, there's definitely a mechanic for dealing with damage that should sink a ship that's not allowed to be sunk. Lots of times it seems like one-shotting gets turned into ~50% current HP damage, while damage just short of one-shotting ends up leaving your ship at single-digit HP (which arguably makes having more armor/HP a bad thing when you know you're going to get critted anyway). It's especially noticeable in PvP where they keep halving a ship's remaining HP over and over.

4CA 2DD worked fine for me for 5-3, finished it within 40 bukkits and probably about 10 total runs - more time was wasted waiting for them to regen to 49 morale than on the map itself since I was too lazy to sparkle on 1-1 between runs. Echelon on the way to boss (though honestly it didn't do much, I tried a number of formations several times each and all of them gave roughly similar damage outputs/fail rates on first node so I'm not sure I believe formation REALLY matters in these night battles), Line Ahead on boss - with 4CA the sub doesn't really matter and I didn't give a shit about S-ranking the boss, just killing the flagship, which you have a pretty good chance of if any of your CA-chans actually TARGET the fucking thing. Expect to night battle on most boss runs, day battle is mostly just clearing out the non-hime/transport enemies, ta-class kind of a crapshoot, so night battle is where you'll likely kill transport.

It probably doesn't actually MATTER which ships you use so long as they're kaid and modernized and equipped for double attack, but I just did all four of the Takao class, most of them around level 50-60 save for god-empress Atago in the 80s, and shigure/yuudachi kai2.

3 Main guns is a waste because you're going to go over the soft cap for firepower, double attack with radar + Type 91 is more effective. Luck really means nothing for CV(L) and BBs.

>>11931008
Don't bother with CLTs' torps, their torps will be useless here. The only use they have for here will be ASW duty. And maybe double attack for night battle but that's it.

Echelon is a defensive formation designed to help you dodge attacks at night, but then they can't do much against cut-ins. Maybe they reduce the chance of enemy cut-ins or something?

Try ring formation if you use 6 DDs, let flagship be Bep and have her hold 3 ASW equips. That should be enough to sink the sub. If you want you can try cut-in on all your other DDs; if that's the case use Yuudachi, Ushio, Kasumi in addition to Shigure and Yukikaze (who should always have cut-in setup). If you want to stick to double attack use Yuudachi, Shimakaze and... one filler I guess.

Or you can follow what I did and use this fleet: >>11928965

It took me about 10-12 tries today with 3CLT and 3DD, CLTs are Lv120+, DDs are Lv80+. I could mostly get to the boss node, but sometimes I killed the SS too late because of T-crossed, or just going into night battle and whiffing.

so far double attack setup has been pointless for me. Always chip damage, ALWAYS. i moved most of my DDs to cutin setup because at least shit gets done.

I would use my beaver but I got her really really late(during my rush to craft hachi, I got her) and she's only level 15. she just kept on getting pushed down the priority ladder.

I've tried multiple CAs before, but once again double attack setup is just not working, I'm really angry at just how often double attack setup is only doing 2's or 5's instead of outright destroying it like it does in just about every other night battle i've done. (see : every night battle not in 5-3)

Currently got Shigure, Poi, shimakaze, murasame, shiratsuyu +1 filler DD

its the best i can do with my current fleet availability, this is also the fleet that has reached the boss node the most.

Personally I just used line ahead with 6 DDs and double attack on everything under 50 luck. Afterwards I kept seeing people saying echelon echelon echelon and was wondering if I might have wasted a bunch of buckets, but this anon's results make me think I made the right choice (at the very least, I rarely ever lost a battle so I was getting more xp and less fatigue). I experimented with echelon back in E-2 where I used a sub to draw most enemy fire but even then it didn't seem like it helped me dodge more and I just went back to double line.

Despite the Atago totals, it's felt like her relative popularity has gone way down in recent months (unlike the early days where it was all Shimakaze and Atago). Nor do I recall seeing very much Haguro recently.

Choukai's unpopularity continues to make me sad though. Also funny that she has the highest ratio of porn outside the top 4.

I want to see some destroyer results, although you can get some skewed numbers there. I recall seeing an old chart that had Mutsuki as the second-most popular Mutsuki-class, which made no sense at all until I realized that it was picking up her name in the tag "Mutsuki-class", when the actual images were only of the more popular Yadokari ones.
