Here's a little report on Saiun crafting that may have some use for those lower level admiral that need them for LoS requirements.
I just needed one more for E-2 so I stopped after getting one Saiun.

HQ 78. Flagship Kaga Kai Lv81 (sparkled for all that matters)

Notable results:
1 Saiun (1.07%)

1 Ryuusei Kai (1.07%)
3 Ryuusei (3.22%)
2 12A (2.15%)
18 penguins (19.35%)
93 crafts (100%)

And past results from my first attempts at getting good planes.

HQ 7x. Flagship Akagi Kai Lv7x-80 (sparkled)

Guide for the average TTK to E-2. Someone said that you can use three Saiun instead of radar-muling your DD flagship, so that's another option.

It's bucket-heavy, and even when you don't repair scratch, you'll find yourself constantly being crit to red and yellow. All in all, it's a patience game.

Take care of yourselves when you are pulling an all-nighter. Get up and stretch your arms, wrist and body every hour or so. Rest your eyes, and be sure to stay hydrated. Don't chug energy drinks and have a coffee or cola instead.

Also, for laptop-TTKs, please be wary of your CPU temperature. Important for those who live in hot regions as well!

It's so maddening reading wikiwiki comments; some lvl 105 TTK beat E-2 using north route with low level CAs and no support fleets at all, using 150 buckets; I'm already at around that number and still no luck with support expeditions and higher level ships.

I tried testing 4 CAs and 2 CVLs to see if I could go east with a random spin (as wikiwiki seems to suggest), but I got sent NW all 5 times. Not enough to be 100% certain but I gave up.

Back to the usual south route fleet, a CA gets critted by Nu at first node, goodbye fuel and ammo for support fleet. I just don't know what I should do now; getting sent back on south route with support just devours my fuel and ammo, but I'm not sure about going north route with no support fleet considering the failures I already had when I DID use one.

All I know is this has easily surpassed spring E-5 for me in time and buckets spent, only thing it's not wasting is steel.

That was my intent. Maybe I should have expressed it with more clarity, but I stated it was for the "average" TTK. Considering the large influx of new players from the recent months, I assumed that the majority of players on this board would be mid-leveled and not all above 100.

>> No.12361033

>>12361023
I was struggling pretty hard on E-2 as well (lvl 100), spent about 200 buckets and about 20k/30k/20k/10k to clear it. I'd recommend going full sparkle with both support expeditions (full power for the route one, 2DD2CVL for boss should be enough if you have good CAs), that's how I got my final kill after 15 or so worthless attempts.

E-3 is a walk in the park and the MI mechanics are pretty fun, it's a just reward.

I'm doing it the other way around, boss node is such bullshit even if I kill everything except the Ri with the support fleet just because of the boss herself.

Since getting her to the final kill I reached her twice and failed to kill thanks to bullshit crits, then about 10 failed north route tries, now a couple of bullshit Nu crits at first node south that I wasn't getting back when I was chipping the gauge.

Really feels like sending support expeditions just makes the RNG start critting you more on the route just to waste your resources.

Yasen node always deal scratch damage to me, but I get sent off the boss node every time. I don't have CAVs to be running the south route either. I'm considering going south route with my underleveled CAs paired with support fleets, does sending out ships as support lock them out from MI and E-6?

So after much testing, I have come to the conclusion that
2BB/2CA(V)/CLT/CV is the best for E6.

So save KTKM, 2 of your best CA(V) and your best CV. This composition will use ACFJ majority of the time, maybe 10% to north.
Night battle node isnt that scary since only the BB can make you retreat, the rest hit like a pansy. Avoiding D node is important since you dont want to deplete your ammo. Hotels arent really all that but they can tank the night battle BB pretty well with their amor, I think that is their only advantage over other BB but you pay double the price.
I prefer this to the CVL setup since I dont want to carry 2deadweight to the boss. I rather have 5ships that can do night battle instead of 4.

>> No.12361261

>>12361238
Personally I prefer the CVL route because the event map sub node doesn't consume ammo, and get to the boss node without ammo penalty helps a lot if you want to kill the BB hime.

Hallelujah, thank you Maya, this AL hell is finally over. Was fucking close; I reached boss node with everyone green except mule Shouhou, but the loli hit both DDs to orange with opening airstrike then critted Choukai in 2nd shelling phase. Maya saved my ass by killing the Ri with the last attack of day combat then finishing the boss.

The funny thing is, after it's all over, I did feel a little sorry for lolihime after hearing her sinking line. Up until that point I was hoping for her to get the Fatalpulse treatment.

Now I have to decide who the hell to use for MI in light of all the E-6 compositions floating around. I saved Zuihou and Chiyoda for it; but wait, actually I need Kaga and CA(V)s; and who knows what's the next magic composition?

Well, Kaga is supposed to be the best choice for E6 because of her plane count seeing as you're only using 1 CV. I'm down to just 5 CVs though because I used Akagi on E-2 when I tried switching to north route, and have no Shoukaku.

You don't. You count on yasen equipment to avoid cut-ins and the like. Personally I used line abreast to balance evasion and accuracy. Worked well enough for me to not only get one cut-in from the enemy in 7 battles there, I don't even remember the other ships damaging me there at all. Never once retreated at that node, in fact; Fusou just soldiered on with 20 HP.

> Also, what should I equip on my DDs? I got type 22 and type 33 on them already.
DDs had cut-in or double attack setup. Flagship had searchlight, the others had type 33 radar, star shell, star shell. BBVs in last 2 slots.

Lvl 99 TTK here. About E-5:


Getting send to the south path depends on the total health of your first fleet. the health threshold becomes lower and lower with each kill. From what I could see during my runs it starts at somewhat above 330 and it keeps lowering. I'd recomend hurting your ships on another map, like 2-4, so you bring their health down enough to meet the requirement, or bringing a destroyer or 2 on your main fleet. Afaik, the health of the second fleet has nothing to do with being sent to one route or another.

Finally, getting sent to H or I seems to also depend on a total health threshold but Im not sure. There is a LOS check from I to L. The LOS needed becomes biggeer with each kill too.

If you have 50 damecons just sitting around, go with 2CVL. I've been looking at the himeuta thread for potential schadenfreude and some guy used 12 damecons just to chip the gauge, so I'm assuming a reasonable man should be able to get away with 5-6.

If you'd rather save your repair teams and have a pile of buckets and resources just sitting around, go with 2CA.

If you're adventurous, try the 1SS night route and be sure to report your results because nobody knows whether it's going to work, some guy with a married Goya did it though. Should use the least amount of resources and only 1-2 damecon if you're unlucky.

Probably sends you to day route and cheesing the night nodes is what the SS is all about, so I don't think so.

If you can go ACFJ with a SS in tow, though, that would be ideal. A and C are of no concern, you remove some of the danger from F (only Ta and Ri, no lucky shots from DDs) and you probably won't use your damecon even if your SS goes to red.

They're worth using for future maps too so it's not like you're going to push them aside after you finish E1. The way things are going it's very much possible that you might not even make it to the next maps, let alone enjoy their easy modo.

I had full sparkles and was sent home on node 1. The next two runs also sent me home. It was only once a couple of them were no longer sparkling that I actually hit the boss again. Placebo shit.

Even with Akitsumaru you'll still go there about 40~50% of the time.

You can try having 1 or 2 (or all) of your DDs loaded with ASW gear. Their damage on the boss, be it cut-in or double hit, isn't that great anyway.
The same also applies for E5, where the sub nodes are unavoidable 80% of the time.

It's bad enough that they reduced carriers to Airsup guarantors, but this whole event was about loading them with fighters AND recon planes now.

I mean, I understand their intention of using LOS as a power-limiting factor, but everyone wanted Midway to be carrier's time to shine and they just gave them an additional reason not to equip attack planes.

There also was the mechanic of day battle after night battle which triggered only if certain enemies survived, and you can guess which enemies your ships loved to kill first.

In combined fleet, only one MVP is based on the damage output, and the flagship of the other fleet becomes MVP automatically.
It's a boss fight, one of your ship in escort fleet deals most damage in night battle, so your soryuu will always be the MVP of the main fleet, even without any bombers.

Apparently 100 LoS is enough for the last boss form on E-2. For HQ78 at least. Read somewhere 80 was sufficient for the first form, though I ran all the time with 101 effective LoS, including last kill.

For anyone struggling, morale is what made all the difference for me. Not just 50 morale for sparkling, I got better results when going with 70-90 morale. Powerful placebo I guess.
I must have missed to write down one kill, since it's suposedly 7 kills to clear the map.

Around 30.

AL: 2BB2DD2CA2CVL
MI: 4CV2BB4DD1CA1CL1CLT
E6: 3BB1CLT2CVL or whichever voodoo composition you're using

That's 27, add a 2CVL2DD route support and a 2BB2CVL2DD boss support and you've got 37 unique ships. Hardly unreasonable, given that you can get away with freshly remodeled CVs and DDs in MI.

>> No.12364300

>>12364229
Start with figuring out which ships you want for E6 and work backwards. In general, save stronger, more resilient ships for later stuff.

The most common E6 comp is 3BB 1CLT 2CVL. There are some alternatives that use CA(V)s, SSs, and a single CV so have some on reserve if you can.

MI requires 4CV 2BB for the main fleet. E4 may need a CAV in the main fleet. MI escort fleet is usually 3DD and a mix of CL(T)s, CA(V)s and maybe more DDs. If you have ZUNship, you might want her for E4 as well.

Lastly, the common AL fleets need 2BB(V)s, 2CA(V)s and 2DDs.

If you're short on ships, you can always level up some before the event's over.

Go to 3-2.
Put the CA you want to level most in flagship spot, with 2 red guns, 1 radar and 1 recon plane.
2 CA with 2 red guns and no planes, you also better use weaker guns than the one you gave to your flag.
1 DD or CL or whatever ships you want, make sure it won't out damage your flagship.
1 BBV with no gun and 1 float plane for Air superiority. Should be in last slot.

Fucking second E-5 yasen node, what retard designed this shit. First night battle node is perfectly fine - as long as you have night scout and a flare, you're relatively fine, there are only 2 cruisers in middle slots that can fuck your shit. The second node is pure bullshit, first 3 slots filled with BB/CA/CA with double attack setup and they WILL fuck up your shit 9 times out of 10.

I followed the threads the first day and half and E-1 sounded so awful; then I turned out to only need 15 attempts on south route. I used just 1 CVL (partly just to avoid having to use my freshly remodeled Shouhou) and that worked wonders, especially considering 5 of the 9 failures were Junyou hit to red at yasen node.

E-3 was a snoozer for the first 6 kills (plus the one compass trolling), then suddenly crits everywhere

Finally done with this hellhole called E2, I don't know why people said they felt bad for killing this thing. I just feel relieved and don't want to come back here ever again.

Used like 50~ buckets on E1 then 80~ buckets on E2.

Im glad I took it easy during all this time and stayed below 100, that last kill would have been hell with the extra fortress and CA

18 sorties for E-1

10 for E-3

Despite final kill being apparently nearly the same as the previous ones (unlike E-2) I sure got enough firsts on it; actually got center route for the first time, my flares failed for the first time, she crit someone in yasen for the first time, and it went all the way down to a Yukikaze cut-in for the first time after Kumano scored the first 7 kills without Ooi or my DDs even attacking.

Wikiwiki's formation info for E-3 boss is totally bogus though; it says both Wos have the special planes for the final kill so I turned two CVs into mules for AS, then one Wo only had normal planes after all.

Actually, formation IRL affects how hard it would be to hit a fleet with torpedoes.
Ships in line ahead are easy target, because they are not dispersed and their broadside usually will be turned towards sub.
Double line is kinda same, but ships are dispersed a bit.
Diamond - max dispersion.
Eschelon is a bit more tricky than line ahead.
Line abreast - time to go deeper and cut the engines.

Ahaahhahahahaha, I finally sank her...

I planned on doing just one more run before going to bed. Entered boss node with four ships in yellow, was not expecting any miracles.

Support fleet took out two DDs and a fortress, while my fleet managed to take out the other fortress and the Ri during the first shelling phase. After that it was full on loli bullying until the end of night battle. All while "Perfect Day" by Supercell was playing in the background.

I cannot express just how happy I am right now. Here's my net resource change while running E2:

Fuel: -3912
Ammo: +207
Steel: -3053
Bauxite: +3198
Buckets: -109

I have no idea how ammo increased, considering I was running support exps like mad and wasn't running any ammo abundant expeditions.

And for the whole AL campaign:

When the battle is over you get an option to continue or retreat. Continuing selects a random DD to escort the ship that got red back home while you carry on with the sortie. Both become unable to be used in later nodes. You don't need to worry about them sinking either. You also need to equip it to your flagship in your main fleet for it to work.

That being said, I don't think it works in night battle nodes because it did not work when one of my ships went red at E-5. I ended up having to end the sortie. The one time I needed it it didn't' work. Useless item.

And the nightmare is over. Big cut-in by Musashi on the final attack to finish Hime off.

I did something retarded and ended up locking KTKM, Yamato, Kongou, and Hiryuu K2 to MI so I was a little worried I might not have been able to clear it, but my B-team came through.

Setup usually took ADFJ. I used node support to reduce the chances of being hit on A, then left DF to chance after dropping bar down to final form. 4x Reppu is overkill for the boss node, but I wanted two Reppu each in case Souryuu went to orange on D or F. You might be able to stick an extra Ryuusei Kai if you want a little more air phase damage, but it's unreliable.

Sparkled main fleet every time, then sparkled entire support fleet for both node/boss support. It's tedious, but I feel sparkling main fleet is a necessity. Sparkling the entire support fleet isn't necessary, but I wanted to give myself everything I could to clear it. Hang in there if you're still struggling with it.

Fleet:
Ooi K2 (97): 2x 20.3 (no.3), Ko-Hyoteki
Hiei K2 (96): 2x 46cm, 0 Obs, Night Recon
Nagato (96): 2x 46cm, 0 Obs, 32 Radar
Musashi (110): 46cm, 41cm Triple, 0 Obs, 32 Radar
Taihou (121): Reppu, Reppu, Tenzan Tomonaga, Type 2 Recon
Souryuu K2 (92): Ryuusei Kai, Reppu Kai, Reppu, Saiun


AL/MI: 49185/43338/17787/16897/292
E-6: 43803/39717/36504/2915/192

None. Returned to base if ship went to red. I can't really find room for it even if I wanted to - maybe on CV/CVL, but I'd rather use the slots for real equipment than that. I'm content with returning to base and starting a new sortie, rather than using slots on damecon. You'll need your fleet to be in good condition on boss node anyway if you want to take her out.

I probably need to do a similar composition for final kill, but still chipping away with 2CAV. That double night is scary though, I can hardly pass F by itself.

About 15 sorties into E-6, 42 buckets later: hit the boss node twice, didn't even make a scratch at the first attempt, 50% damage at the second one; both with incapacitated CLT. As expected of Kritakami-sama!

I have to resort to CLT/BB/CVL composition, I think it works best for me.
