who is this baby battermancer

So apparently, ducky/pringels/new German CV drops on medium difficulty.

I guess that's a valid excuse to blitzkrieg this event on kuso modo?

>>14372754
*easy difficulty

Whatever happened to the Vita game?

>>14372940
Delayed because reasons.

Why anyone wants to buy that is beyond me.

Six or seven attempts and I'm still at 300/300 TP.

I'm having so much fun.

>>14371866
I accidentaly heard her voice during a stream, top tier pantyhose cake and wife material.

What's easier to farm on easy mode, E-4 or E-5?

What the fuck am I doing wrong? I keep losing to the boss and getting nothing even with support shelling

>>14374593
I'd laugh at you for not having the army dog, but up until today I didn't have her either, so I feel for you.

I uh, nice redecorating Littorio...

Has anyone actually had Hayasui drop from E-1 Hard? I'm at 30 S clears now with the only notable drop being Ooyodo

Have all the best fleet configurations for the event been figured out yet?

Army dog-less anon from yesterday here. It was hell, but I rescued her. Thanks for the advice and encouragement guys.

>>14374902
Good work and teach her how to wear a pantyhose.
I have yet to start e-3, Ill see what I need to brute force it outside Akitsumaru to start e-4 as soon as possible.

>>14374920
Good luck man. I wanted to get through E-3 and to E-4 as soon as possible too. Graf and Kashima are my favorite girls this event so I definitely want both.

I am conflicted. I want to get my first epeen medal this event, but I don't have too many DDs. I only have Poi, Beaver, Shimakaze, and Bep (all 70+) and Akatsuki (52). The rest are really only leveled from expeditions, so they're pretty crappy. Can I do E-4 with two level 20 DDs on medium? I also want to get Akizuki, Prinz, and that yasen carrier. Should I give up my epeen medal?

>>14374902
Reminds me of Danganronpa for some reason

>>14373479

The initial draw was portable kancolle. Now that they're also working on android, a non shitty version of mobile. Phone gaming is absolute trash. Games need buttons.

There haven't been any reports of army dog dropping, have there?

>>14375295
Not true, guess what map? E-3.

>>14375298
What node? Boss? If yes, I'm just sticking with Tone

>>14375305
No idea, but it was mentioned last thread, check kancolledb if you want more data I guess.

>>14375312
Found it. Node M. Motherfucker

I've gathered possible ways to take out the PT babies.
>aerial support or torpedo support
>Skilled Lookouts on DDs
>secondary or radar cut-in
>torpedo bombers or Zuiun
One or all of these have to work. Some tried aerial support with mild success, but not torpedo, which comes from DDs and CLs.

Graf Zeppelin Drei with Me262 (Hartmann Squadron) when?

Why does the M node sometimes turn into this node on easy?
Like the 3rd time it's happened.

>>14375496

The same reason the boss node sometimes has dyson and sometimes has BWS

because fuck you

>>14375500
Bitch lived on 8 hp after biscuit hit her, and then everyone either missed or didn't do any damage.

Anyone else stuck on E3 here? Pre boss Ru flag is a colossal bitch.

I don't think he realizes you can remodel her before going tan.

>>14375519
I am, though I only started doing it not too long ago.

>>14375524
Wouldn't a CAV be better than Mizuho?

My Jintsuu is giving me the death stare but my erection won't go away.

>>14375480
When you go back in time and tell Hitler that battleships are stupid, and carriers are the way of the future. Of course, this means no Bismarck, so choose wisely.

>>14375524
At least you're at the boss, I've only hit the boss twice in 10~ runs.

Should I save Ayanami and yuudachi for E4 and not use them on E3? I'm planning on Easy farming E3 and E4 till I get akizuki, graf, prinz and then clearing on hard

>>14375531
Daihatsu.

>>14375550
Ships don't matter for E-4, ASW equip does.

>>14375550

Bring cut-in DDs for E-3

>>14375543
Pretty sure Hitler realized the importance of carriers when Bismarck sunk.

Last dance is underwhelming. I even used a level 20 unremodelled smugkaze.

>>14375556
Why CI? Is it needed to break armor?
And should I bring my 48 luck myoukou to E3 then as well?

PRINZ

PLEASE

MY RESOURCES ARE DYING

>t. yumeno sakiko

Anyone know the compass rule for E4's node I?

>>14375559
Do you need everything spoon fed to you? There's already plenty of information out, so look at it and learn to make your own decisions.

>>14375565
Refrain pls

>>14375565
>>t. yumeno sakiko
What the fuck is this?

I don't have Akitsumaru, am I fucked for E-3 hard?

>>14375524
Do you go full lepu on Akitsumaru? Why not 1 max reppuu kai and 2 boats on her? If not , then av carries 2 boats and one minisub, right? You only need parity in the end.

>>14375588

100% fucked, no joke.

Just do medium and forget about it.

>>14375590
You don't want your CAs doing double attack?

>>14374785
Got my second one while clearing.
Kancolle DB says she only has a .5% drop rate, so you're in for the long haul.

>>14375565
fanart is so silly, if she really had some meat like in that picture, she would be treated different in my base for sure

>>14375480
You need zwei first m8.

>>14375602
>Kancolle
>small c

>only 77k resources left
>losing 600 per run
>no Prinz
>still have to do E-4 and E-5

HELP
E
L
P

>>14375590
Two fighters and FCF. I only have four Daihatsu, so they're split between Mizuho and Abukuma. The AS can help my CAs quite a bit.

>>14375590
I don't think ships on the main fleet can do opening torpedo.

>>14375676
I tried, they can't. Mizuho has a Seiran right now.

H-Hey guys, am I still relevant?

Anyone know whats the difference between easy and normal for e-3 in terms of difficulty? Was doing hard but I dont think the sonar is worth all the buckets I will be burning for it.

>>14375718
Medium has double Ta as well.

Which E-3 node does Akizuki drop in?

>>14375718
Medium is always a less worse hard.

>>14375725
Thanks. I guess the pre boss nodes are all the same for all 3 levels of difficulty?

>>14375725
>>14375728
Thanks. I presume the pre boss nodes are all the same on all difficulties?

>>14375718
You're just gimping yourself in medium. The reward isn't even worth it but has like half the bullshit of hard. Go easy or go hard.

>finally get around to starting the event
>errorcat as soon as I click sortie
noice

>>14375733
Node D is still lousy with Ri flags on all difficulties, but the Node H Ru flag is gone on easy, and there's no Tsu on first node to rape your seaplanes so you can still AS the boss if you have no Akitsu Maru.

Who else /suffering/ here?

>>14375727
Boss, though you wouldn't think it after farming it for several hours.

>>14375757
Me, 28 S kills so far all I gotten is Akitsumaru which I already have 5 of.

>>14375762
At least all that those extra ASW planes are worth something.

Dupes of rare DDs you already have are pretty much useless. If they at least came with some decent equipment that'd be something.

Who waiting for winter to farm ducky here? Fuck e-3, I already have her sister so I can live without her.

Does E3 medium still gives regular medal ? E3 hard seems too bucket and resource instensive, but if i do easy modo i cant do E4 hard for teh german planes.

>>14375771
So many S kills with no drop at all, I've had at least 10.

What setups are best for killing the flagships on nodes J and M for E4?

>>14375774
Pretend you're farming for Mizuho, that'll make her show up.

>>14375775
>teh german planes
Get out

>>14375774
Can't afford that, I had to ditch last event because reasons, so I don't have her sister.

My priority goes Akizuki > U-511 > Prinz > Zeppelin.

>E-4 last dance
>Finally get Sub hime to low health
>5 HP left
>ASW-loaded Fubuki takes shot
>misses
So how was your salt today /jp/?

>>14375785
Took me a couple of tries to clear E-2 because of yasen and Jintsuu's armor is uncanny.

MUTSUKIS ARE FUCKING SHIT

>>14375781
u mad m8?

>>14375778
My problem is being unable to S-rank boss consistently even with full support. No army dog is suffering.

>>14375782
My priority is Graf > Prinz> 甲 medal > Akizuki.

>>14375785
Sunk a ship for a C rank on Easy.

Where's my kuso ttk medal.

>>14375785
They didn't name her 不武器 for nothing.

>>14375785
>using fubushit
Kek

Why the fuck are pre bosses so unfair? I haven't even managed to hit AV hime in more than 10 runs because ru flag will ALWAYS manage to taiha someone.

Just fuck my shit up senpai.

>>14375785

>>14375796
Just ignore them, full sparkle all your ships and take Hamakaze + Yukikaze +3 good DD through E->H. It's no worse than 3-5 south.

Am I ready for event guys?

>>14375802
lel

>>14375810
Event is months away, why are you stockpiling?

>>14375802

>>14375805

Did you already forget the Wolocaust? This is nothing.

>>14375817
Prebosses are often harder than the fucking bosses themselves.

>>14375757
It's okay. I spent 3 days looking for Roma last event. I just need to stay determined. Surely it won't take that long this time!

R-right?

>>14375817
Why is there a transport there?
Where are your CVLs?
What did you expect when you retreated your AACI.

Same questions bring asked every hour jesus

>>14375808

>implying sparkling helps at all

Even a fucking sparkled Amatsukaze went to red instantly in E-2's night battle. I've been wasting more buckets on Mikazuki and Satsuki than anyone else but I won't risk going anywhere other than the Mutsukis route.

>>14375817

You're giving me some severe PTSD here, anon.

Should I save my Bismark for E-4?

What was the point of the existence of transport fleet? It's literally just a resource sink that forces the fucking transports to go into double shelling with a Ru around which makes no fucking sense, while you get slapped with accuracy penalties from being in a CF.

At least there isn't Tsu spam all over the nodes and maps.

>>14375828
Because newfags can't lurk more. What a surprise

>>14375836

Because this is Tokyo Express: the Event

>>14375831
Won't need her on E4 unless you're farming prinz

>>14375831
She's pointless for E-1 and you can't use her in E-3 escort fleet anyways.

>>14375817
>diamond
>elite transport

So, when you clear a stage, the boss returns to pre last-dance right? I miscalculated E-4's bar and cleared it when I had intended to reset it before last dance for farming

>>14375829
>>implying sparkling helps at all
I cleared it just fine, getting past that node over half the time. Bringing night recon and star shell helped a lot.

>>14375843
yes I'm looking for prince
>>14375845
E-4 then

Alright how many buckets did you people use to clear e3? I'm nearing 40 while only hitting the boss twice.

>>14375854
Pretty much essential for farming prinz since it's water demon, mine is doing her entire hp bar at night with type 3 shell.

>>14375856

Over 150

Can Maya Kai Ni get AACIs with this set up?

20.3cm (No.2) Twin Gun Mount
25mm Triple Autocannon Mount (Concentrated Deployment)
90mm Single High-angle Gun Mount
Type 21 Air Radar

>>14375856
I used just under 50 on hard.

>>14375829
Funny, I have more trouble with the first node than the yasen in the special route. Yasen never does anything to my mutsukis.

>>14375856
I used 30 so far and I've only got 35.5% left to do.

>>14375836
Don't you like history, anon?

>>14375880
First node is easily beaten with route support. You can save resources by bringing 2CVL2CA2DD or in fact you could use airstrike support, there's no enemy AA so the bauxite cost is minimal.

>>14375880

This. I haven't had a single taiha on that node but first node I always lose one, usually due to bs like jintsuu missing. I hate it because nothing else works, you just have to deal with it and get lucky.

>>14375831
This event doesn't need any battleshit at all. Their only purpose this event is to act as support sluts.

I'm about to send route support for E3, which should I use?

>>14375895
>route support
Only for last dance, because I had no patience. Had to use boss support all the time, however.

>>14375898
When will my Armored Carrier Zuikaku Kai Ni's time to shine?

>>14375917

Leyte event next summer

>>14375908
I route supported all the time. It was worth it, after that I never had anything more than scratch on first node.

Confirming drop for E2 boss S-rank on hard: Jintsuu.

>>14375917
E-4
She has been acting as the finisher for BBhime in E4 for me. Probably account for 90% of the kill so far.

>farming Graf and quint at the same time

>>14375903
How do I equip an aerial support fleet?

>Levels
>matter

>>14375938
Where's abyss Jintsuu?

>>14375938
>kuso mode
Opinion discarded.

>>14375924
I had Jintsuu as my drop on S-ranking the e-2 final kill. Fun times, but can't beat that time when I S-ranked spring final boss and was greeted with kumaa..

>>14375928
What a slutty teacher.

>>14375938
Sasuga Yukikaze

Kill me

easy, E4-M <3

>>14375957
Fuck you, 35 S kills still nothing.

>>14375957

PLEASE

SAVE ME /JP/ MAGIC

>>14375952
Its happened to me about 6 times already.

You niggers aren't gonna believe me, but I don't care.

1st try M node easy.

>>14375960
Pretend I'm Maya-sama, get on the ground and beg to me

>>14375960
>still nothing
Don't exaggerate anon, you didn't get nothing. I'm sure you got plenty of Yura and the like!

Also, please stop hiding Akizuki

Finally done. Now for Graf Zeppelin, and then Prinz.

>Do a farm run of E-4
>Kill everyone but CV Hime only has 1 fucking HP

WHHHHHYYYYYY

There's no Easy>Hard restrictions this event right?

>>14375966
>>14375969
probably karma since I got ducky off my one and only S kill on E-3

>>14375782
Excellent, moving on to E-4.

>>14375973
There is. You can only go Hard > Medium > Easy, and will only be able to do medium and hard if you start on medium and never drop to easy.

it's retarded, but hey, that's Tanaka for you.

>>14375973

There always has been

>>14375974

Probably then. I didn't like E3 very much so that'll be more of medium priority rather than the high priority E4M right now

>>14375976
How many runs and what difficulty?

>>14375983
Easy modo, uh, like 10 runs or so, wasn't keeping track.

>>14375991
Damn Let's hope I even get half as lucky

what's the easiest way to S-rank E-4

fuck that dyson bitch

Pissed away about 100 buckets and Akizuki still won't drop. Cool.

>>14376003
>100 buckets
Wow, it's fucking nothing

How to survive PT boat shit?

Why is Destroyer Oni behind a fucking wall of dodgetanks on Easy, and shitty generic DDs on Hard? Hello? Devs?

Guys, is it ideal to farm Zep on easy or hard?

>>14376009
Why would it ever be ideal to farm any ship ever on hard?

>>14376007
Because they are easy to sink, but people haven't found their weakness yet.

>>14375963
No

>>14376010
They said hard gives more drop rate.

>>14376013
Was this confirmed or is it a rumor

>>14376011
I considered that, but even if so, Hard's DDs are pathetic. Boss support wrecks them, KTKM wrecks boss.

FUCK E3

EVERYTHING WAS GOING SO SMOOTHLY

FUCKING 4 HP RU FLAG STILL MANAGES TO TAIHA A DRUMSLUT

JUST FUCKING KILL ME.

>>14376018

That's what FCF is for anon

>>14376017
What is the trick to farm Arashi?
Reset the boss gauge so you don't face final form?
Or is final form easy modo as well

>>14376003
Keep trying anon!

Prinz finally at db!
Only five drops but:
hard 1.82% medium 5.71% easy 4.65%

/jp/ give me your power

I just want to complete E-2

7 runs and i'm done with event
>CV : Hayami
Wow, what a turn off
See you fags in three months

>>14376018
That's not nice anon. E3 is the biggest gaming convention, and some people really like it.

>>14376028
Just got her too after ~30 runs. Must be time-based drops at work.

>>14376019
Using abkm, no space for a fcf.

>>14376026

even /jp/ magic is fucking with me

>>14376026
Take mine and give me strength to overcome pt boat shit.

>>14376014
>On maps of the Main Operation you can get Akizuki, Kawakaze, Mizuho among others. ※Higher difficulty levels have a higher drop rate. Furthermore, clearing the Main Operation allows you to proceed to the Extra Operation.

It didn't specifically say about Zep, but whatever I'm going to farm her on easy because I can't take 2 So flagship in my way.

>>14376022
I should think she'll revert to pre-final after you clear her, like everyone else does. Either way, double attacks shred through her so I'm wondering if I really need these yasen equips.

What fleets/routes are you guys using for node M farming?

>>14376028
What difficulty?

I want to stick my dick in her ass every time she's getting hit

How many do I need to sparkle to guarantee boss support? I only sparkled flag and they've failed to activate twice now.

>>14376064
Can you people fuck off? They all drop off all difficulties. Fuck you.

>>14376057
So no debuffing what so ever?
Too easy, too easy.

>>14376068
Sparkle everyone for max placebo.
But seriously, I just sparkle everyone cause I fucking hate it when they don't show up.

>>14376075
It's extremely expensive to do that when you're farming a combined fleet map. I just want to get the most bang for my buck.

I'm going to legit cry over this

Jintsuu, why? Is it because I didn't have time to train you for your Kai2? Is that it?

>>14376080
>bringing non-kai2s to event maps

You asked for this, redditscum

>>14376072
Yeah, mine still has the hat on but KTKM/Poi hit like a truck.

>>14376080
If it makes you feel better, I had an extremely high chance of S ranking the boss until the cat bombed me.

>>14376080
That's exactly why you dumb piece of shit, now stop shitposting about your failures when you're using very far below par ships.

>>14376080

>not getting Jintsuu to K2

literally why

>>14376043
ABKM doesn't prevent you from using FCF

>>14376066
Hearing her and Dyson getting slapped around is so satisfying.

>>14376080
You know the event doesn't end tomorrow, right?

I'm actually really surprised that most people seem to have Yukikaze but not Jintsuu Kai2.

I thought it was going to be the other way.

Are the new Kagerous the most generic girls yet? I thought Umikaze was generic, but then these bitches come.

>>14376043
There is no need to gimp MEGA ABKM
Filthy Dog - 2reppu 1boat
Mizuho - 3boats
12 drums

This will give you 99 or 142 TP depending on what rank you get.
It will come up to about 6-8sortie depending on how much your boats choked. With ABKM opening torpedo and CI, you have a high chance to S rank the boss node.
Drop the boat entirely for final run and stuff 2Seiran into Mizuho tight hull.

>>14376094
Oh shush, Hagikaze is waifu tier.

>>14376100
Hagikaze is so plain, I swear I saw her before.

>>14376094
But Arashi is very cute.

>>14376093
Most people would k2 sendai first and now abkm has 2nd priority, however as CLs are rarely used you can easily get away without more k2s. Before this event I had only sendai, naka and abkm k2, I did jintsuu k2 only because I suspected there would be routing due to muh history.

>>14376101
This.
I distinctly remember reading some doujin with that purple tail + that side tail.

>>14376094
Complaining about genericness in 2D girls is like complaining that all wines taste the same.

It's the subtleties that make the character design, not the general features. It's easy to find repeated character traits all over the 2D world, but it's the details that make each design interesting.

Why won't yukikaze stop eating abyssal shells?

>>14376098
Where does the FCF go then?

>>14376059
2 FBB 2 CV 2 CVL + 1 CL 2 CA 2 DD 1 CLT
Varies going between B to C or B to F sometimes.

>do E1 yesterday
>getting shit load of Mikazuki and Satsuki's
>use them to modernize
>didn't know about branching
>E1 won't drop one of them for me anymore

t-thanks

Was I playing on hard or easy mode?

>>14376110
My mistake
Mizuho 2boats+FCF
Dog 2reppu+1boat
Anyway, you can swap around Mizuho and Dog to carry the FCF so that both of them stay sparkled.
The TP gain is for 3boats+12drums. 4boats+12drums would have even higher TP gain.

>>14376117
E-1 is a joke as always. The later maps are an absolute fucking pain.

>>14376098
I'm already running that exact loadout except my abkm is on DA with 20 luck.

I can't A rank this shit so i get 100 tp with that, currently at 523. Running aerial route support and going to run shelling boss support.

>>14376125
Why would anyone ever run aerial support?

>>14376127
PT boats

>>14376059
1FBB 2 BB 1CAV + 2CVL | F2 Biscuit+ 1CL + 1CA + 1CLT + 2 DD CVL equiped with 2 reppus and 2 blues each get an S rank 80% of the time. Always goes D>E>F>I>K>M

>ships de-cached themselves

feeling suicidal atm

>>14376117
Don't you need Kawakaze for E-4 routing?

>>14376123
>as always
It wasn't a joke that one time.

>>14376131
>PTBOATS
What shitty composition are you running?

Mizuho
Dog
4DD

1CL
2CA
3DD

The above give you a fixed route to boss without ever meeting the PT boats.

>>14376132
And run it on Easy, right?

>>14376127
Because I just want to stop all the fucking line ahead note en route from firing nuke torps at me so I do not mind even if its just a chuuha, so far it has been very effective.

>>14376141
Yep

>>14376127
I'm on E5 and already forgot what E2/3 were like after bruteforcing, but aerial support is way more effective against PT boats than shelling. Each plane gets a hit roll.

>>14376141
Also make sure your BBs have Type 3

After changing from hard to easy for E3, I cleared it within 3 turns. The difference in difficulty is surprising.

>>14376136
E-5 bro

18th run at medium, first one today.

>>14376159
E3 easy is a joke farmed both Akizuki and Mizuho there

>>14376159
>easy
Say goodbye to your green plane on E-4 hard. I dropped to medium and it's surprisingly easy too, preboss turned into a complete joke. Still can't get s-ranks because AV hime is ridiculous and torp CI only scratches her.

>>14376172
You get both planes from Zeppuu.

Who are the new trophy wives now that Prinz and Akizuki turned into sluts?

>>14376170
Is it pudding hour or something?

>>14376177

Zeppelin

>>14376178
Hope so about to do my 78th attempt.

>>14376177
Everyone becomes a slut eventually. Only 53cm torp and shinden kai are pure.

>>14376176
Why not get two of it? It's a reppuu with +2 acc, one of the best planes around.

>>14376178

I really fucking hope so, it's been hell so far.

>>14376177
Unryuu-class, Taihou, Amatsukaze, etc.

>>14376177
Prinz and Akizuki were handed out for free.

>>14376136
>Kawakaze for E-4
laughing dragons.jpg

>>14376182
>53cm
>Pure
Your subs probably used it as their personal dildo. It's as pure as Suzuya.

Just got my akizuki. About to switch to E3 hard. Do you guys sparkle everyone and use both supports?

>>14376188
The newfags showed up after Winter event.

>>14376192

You need at least boss support, route support is kind of iffy for E-3.

Sparkling is placebo.

>>14376178
It's morning here.

>>14376192
This event doesn't need any sparkle. Just run both support and FCF. You only need A rank.

So it seems that in terms of difficulty

E5 > E2 = E3 > E4 > E1

It's like the maps are inverted. Who thought this was a good way to design an event?

>>14376199
E2 was way easier than E3

>>14376183
Go for it if you want anon, but plane proficiency diminishes the relative power of fighters so it's not like you need to sacrifice tooth and nail to get it.

>>14376189
>>14376165
Misread, my bad

Holy shit, my battleships won't stop hitting these pt fuckers. 7 runs but only 3 S ranks.

>>14376195
>>14376198
Sparkling is what got me through E-2 in 6 consecutive runs. Before that I got turned back 5 times in a row. Didn't have the tsukis by the way so I had to do the harder yasen node.

How many buckets for E4 and E5 hard with appropriate ships and equipment?

>>14376198
Don't the supports need sparkling?

>>14376204
No probs, start training your Kwakaze

>>14376207

I was 8 of 9 on E-2 with no sparkling. Sparkling is placebo.

>>14376203
I'm not sacrificing much, E-3 medium isn't very difficult. It's just hard that is insane. And my best planes at the moment are reppuu 601 and iwamoto, this would be my third best plane so I really want more of it.

>>14376199
>E1 at the bottom
And yet there are people still struggling on that map, somehow.

Shimakaze is seriously broken with that expansion slot. I've never even had an enemy burn the damecon, including last E7. She just dodgetanks everything at taiha and lets everyone else land the sick crits.

I can't even imagine how busted her K2 will be.

>>14376215

>level 150 ZKMS with 3 tenga boilers

gotta go fast

>>14376213
I would agree, but I'm still missing army dog (I did get Taihou and Shioi while rolling for her though).

you're not my aryan goddess, gtfo you filthy slope

>>14376227
absolutely disgusting ship

>>14376227
>>14376231
She has the best kanColle doujin.

>>14376220
>but I'm still missing army dog
So am I. She's not really needed on medium though, I'm doing the boss just fine on AP. Lv70+ DDs dodge Tas pretty well on medium.

Did the last sub node in E4 always have a gold one in it? Started taking damage there from it ever since the last dance.

>>14376236
another NTR?

>>14376227
Man I'm so glad I spent all that time leveling my cranes to kai ni. Spending those blueprints and those catapults has sure proved to be useful during this event.

>>14376236
My boner.
I want to NTRing Shoucụcku from other teitoku

>>14376237
It was getting routed to the goddamn Imps that made me quit Hard. Also, I didn't grind nearly enough buckets and so I'm prioritizing ship farming over map rewards.

>>14376227
HQ lvl 98 and somehow I still don't have her.

>>14375898
Underrated post

>>14376254
I didn't get her until last event at HQ lv101.

>>14376253
>Imps
I never even went there once. 2AV 4DD and 1CL 2CAV 3DD seems to be perfect routing through C->D.

What kind of equipment should I be using for node M easy? Most times I can't S it.

>>14376271

A gorillion carriers

>>14376186
Best CV. Armored kaini when.

Almost done with E-3 fuck you guys need to tell me E-4 is way more easy

How many of you fags got Zepp from easy and then switched to hard to clear E-4? I'm thinking of doing that as well.

>>14376284
Practically everyone.

>>14376279
I think Unryuu K2 would get yasen capabilities, since radar technology was improving throughout the war.

Has anyone found a good way to kill those fucking babies? I'm tired of being cockblocked from S-ranking because of them.

>>14376293
I think I would be lucky if my great-grandchildren could live to see an Unryuu k2.

Thank goodness I had boss support.

>>14376293
Shit don't matter. Yasen damage formula means that CVs will always be fucked.

>>14376284

LITERALLY everyone

I haven't played in ages, is API still kill?

>>14376296
Try any of these >>14375371

I did it. I can now farm for Akizuki and suffer some more.

>>14376303

Yeah

'sup guys
kcgbro here
Thank you for using my thread. It means a lot to me. :^)

I wasnt aware it was the final formation heh

>>14376271
Don't forget your green shells.

Feels like Poi's poi are becoming more poi-poi.

>tfw you're so burned out on 1-1 you don't even notice a taiha

>>14376325
Imagine what it must feel like to watch your comrade die on a training exercise of all things. I'd curse my TTK for the rest of my life, if I were those girls.

>>14376325
Get some engines. You'll never need escorts again.

>>14376199
Is this accurate? All in hard right?

>>14375717
Yes, you bitch. Turn off your aimbot, you're more problematic than SS hime.

Is E4M farming be easier on hard (or medium) than easy since those comps don't have PT boats? They make my comp fail about 1/5 times

>>14376332
>comrade
It's a DD I just fished from the previous 1-1 run.

>>14376333
I have 3 kanhon types. I've tried it before and it doesn't help on node C, it's still scratch damage hell.

>>14376345
Kisaragi isn't just any other DD.

>>14376343
They all have PT boats.

>>14376347
That's right, she's an aircraft carrier

>>14376350
Oh, I could've sworn Wikiwiki said otherwise. My bad

I've come back from the depths of PT boat hell and live to tell the tale.

>>14376321
What was your main fleet? RNG fucks me over and I'm not sure if it's just the "random" part or something on my end. Pre-boss nodes are such a fucking pain, especially flag So and Wo Kai nodes.

Do I need to complete all the maps on hard for memedal or just the final map?

>>14376358
forgot proof.

Ugh, going through E-2 is a pain in the ass...and I have no Akitsumaru for E-3...

>>14376368
>No Akitsumaru for E-3

me too bud, let's suffer together.

>>14376368
Me too. I did 5x panic LSC and got nothing but AA modernisation material. I've decided fuck it, I'll just do it on medium and it's become surprisingly easy.

>>14376362
>memedal
How do you pronounce memedal?

>>14376373
Yeah. Man, guess I'm gonna do E-3 on Easy or Medium.

>>14376382
メメダル

Graf Club joined. 30+ sorties, 100 buckets and 15k resources downed lol. Worth

>>14376361

Light Cruiser
3 Battleships
2 Light Carriers

Surface combat fleet.

Try type 3 shells on PT boats. I've seen some big hits with them.

>>>14376398
Blue planes and torps are more effective.

To debuff E4 do I need to S rank M and J or just killing the boss is fine? How can I go to J node in the first place?

>>14376398
>Type 3

Heh, shotgunning PTs...

Protip: You can't bring large ships into E5

Fuck yeah. You can't ask for a more picturesque victory. Shimakaze got taiha'd a J, dodgetanked at L, and then got revived by Imp torps. Shiggy finish w/ cut-in.

All ship daughters rescued. Time to go home.

What formation for E4 boss?

>>14376388

>>14376394
Thanks. Looks like I'm just getting trolled.

RNG knows that he won't let me pass this fucking bullshit bucketfest.

>>14376430
The left upper one.

>>14376442
>he

>>14376445

Not top right? Wiki says it's good for both ASW and shelling.

>>14376388
i keep getting bb drops sadly.

>>14376454
I need this bb in my life

How do you think the debuffing on E-4 works?
Is it a certain amount debuffed for each clear or J or M, or do you clear both once or a certain number of times to get the full effect?

>>14376453
>listening to wikitards
LEL
Just go top left and watch your torpedo sluts blast BBhime to chuuha at the start every time. Even hankousen is enough to kill BBhime.

>>14376461
gotten two in a row so far
e4 is an easy ass farm

>>14376442

提督の皆さん、申し訳ありません。新深海棲艦【PT小鬼群】に有効な駆逐艦の攻撃が全てのサーバ群において仕様通りに動作してない可能性が極めて高いです。現在、実装状況を再精査中です。大変申し訳ありません、作戦行動中の皆さん、同敵と会敵する出撃を暫くお待ち頂けないでしょうか。
PT boats being worse than Dyson was a bug after all.

>>14376484
It took them this long to notice?

>>14376484
It's legit. TANAKAAAAA

>>14376484
They aren't supposed to be hit for 1 damage by a torpedo crit, DD attack

They're supposed to be hit for 1 dmg by a BB hit

I just got third Akagi from E3 farm. Seriously want to cry.

>>14376484
At least I'm still stuck on E-3.

>>14376484
FUCKING TANAKA
I slaved for 5+ hours fighting the little dipshits to pass E5 and this is how they repay me!?

>>14376484
>"bug"
Tanaka's finding new ways to troll us everyday.

>>14376484

Are you serious? Just how many bugs are in this fucking event?

I feel bad for that guy who tried everything to kill those PT shits now.

>>14376484
So glad I resisted the urge to flatten E5.

What if the bug was them not dodging torpedos correctly

>>14376484
>im-fucking-plying it's a bug
I am so glad I have not started on the event yet.

>>14376498
I took almost 6 hours and finally grinded past E5 easy and all the PT shits and now they fucking say that it's a bug

【作戦海域で「PT小鬼群」と交戦されている提督の皆さんへ】
秋イベに参加され、現在、新しい深海棲艦「PT小鬼群」と交戦されている提督の皆さん、申し訳ありません。本来小鬼群に有効な駆逐艦の攻撃が、現在仕様通りに動作していない不具合が確認されています。大変申し訳ありません！

>>14376484
The early worm gets the bird. Feels good to never have to deal with the PTSD boats.

Should I go to node M or something first?

>>14376484
>Already finished the event then this came out
Sasuga Tanaka

>>14376484
PT boats was a mistake.

>>14376506

You were a true hero, anon.

>>14376509

>>14376509
Kek. So we're supposed to wait until they fix this shit, huh?

>>14376509
KEK
EXTENSION CONFIRMED

【「PT小鬼群」と交戦中の提督の皆さんへ】
現在、第二作戦海域以降で「PT小鬼群」と交戦されている提督の皆さん、大変申し訳ありません……この後一時間以内を目安に本来の実装への緊急復旧作業を行います。同敵と会敵する作戦海域への出撃を一時間だけ見合わせて頂けますと幸いです。

>>14376522
You could do something like farm E-3 where there's no PT boats.

>>14376509
Is a lame apology all we're going to get?
Why can't they shell out a free HQ expansion or something?

>>14376526
I am so.... appalled, near 700 buckets and 40K resources to beat the event, now they're just going to say oops that was a bug lol.

>>14375960
it took me 80+ runs..

Got my second Akashi from E-3 hard when I wasn't even looking for one. Feels good when things like this happen.

>>14376525
I think I'll just get some rest instead. I've already cleared E1-E4甲 and got my Graf Zeppelin.

>>14376524
So, are they going to fix PT boats?

They have to increase droprates to make up for this I guess, or extend the duration of the event for a little

>>14376532
I'm literally at 90+

Does the fix will make E-3 more doable without akitsumaru? Can 2BBV change anything?

>>14376539
>increase drop rates
You fucking wish. The imps are only a road block on E-5 where nobody had any intention of farming in the first place.

>>14376533
Congrats, though I also want to say "Fuck You" as well.
I've been farming E3 for hours now. 60+ S ranks and nothing to show for it except all the duplicates I don't want.

>>14376542
Maybe, but I wouldn't count on it. Their cut-in rate is still extremely high and you have to deal with goth AV and 2 Ta class.

I'M OUTTTTT

>>14376542
>Can 2BBV change anything?
It will certainly make boss node easier since you can finally fight back against Ta. Won't save your escort fleet from getting rekt though and yasen node is always a crapshoot even without OP PTs. Questionable chance of reaching boss but better chances of winning if you do reach.

>>14376484
But I literally just finished the event.
Well, E4 M will be easy, right?

After setting up aerial route support and shelling boss support, my success rate on E3 dramatically rose.

Also finally got Umikaze.

>>14376553
Nope you aren't they are going to roll back progress 1 hour to implement the PT boat fix.

>>14376563
Not him but 1hr starting when?

>>14376563
That just says they're going to fix it in an hour, stop rusing.

Wait, why did the Submarine Princess suddenly become indestructible? Ooyodo killed her in two hits the first time, but now everyone only did scratch damage.

Do I have to debuff her by killing the Anchorage Water Demon on node M? I thought that was just for the final kill.

>>14376563
Don't scare me like that, anon. I might going to kill myself.

>>14376563
Yeah horseshit. A lot of here actually can read Japanese you fag.

>>14376575
I can't, but even google translate says he's a faggot.

>>14376579
Pretty sure that google translates it as "restoration work"

God, I love this PTgate shit.

This event is going to be remember more for the devs' stupidity than anything else.

>>14376571
It isn't necessary. Just crit her to death.

On farming Zep on easy mode, should I sparkle and use route support?

>>14376584

This game has always been and will always be a trollfest. This event did nothing to change that.

>>14376561
Are you doing a clearing run or just farming? Why aerial support on E3?

>>14376388
Can you share your setup? I can't seem to reliably S rank and my resources are turning into thin air fast.

>>14376593
No and no. It's a waste of resources.

>>14376552
>>14376557
Maybe I should give up then? 2AV for hard is asking too much. That formation cannot even gain AP.

>>14376598
Some Japanese guy is saying this is the best setup. I haven't tried it myself as I'm still clearing E-3 hard.

>>14376609
I used this setup, it's pretty good.

>>14376598
>>14376388
Same here, I can't do anything but scratch damage to SS Hime, and BWS/BB Hime just stand by laughing at me

I'm running
Melon (Full ASW), 4 BB, CV in my main
Full ASW Ooyodo, 3 DD, Ooi with ASW, and Teruzuki for AACI.

A mix of Type 3's and Type 94's

If I kill SS Hime, the other capital ship is just left really low. Really rather not support fleet for just Graf farming

>>14376609
This was my farming fleet, also they said Graf drops only when the BB hime is there instead of the Black Wo shooter.

I got my Graf killing BB hime too.

>>14376609
I used something similar, and it works.

>>14376604
You can always lower the grade to B or even C if you don't mind clearing E4 on B.

>>14376571
You aren't on last kill are you?
Because I'm just farming and I'm running into the same exact fucking problem.

>2 D ranks in a row on E2

Dead weightsukis sure are great.

>>14376624

>also they said Graf drops only when the BB hime is there instead of the Black Wo shooter.

This is some serious tinfoil shit

>>14376624
>Bringing yamato to farm
Do you hate your resources?

>>14376631
Post your DD/CL setup.

>>14376634
Are you using boss support? That helped me get B+ when I was doing E2.

>>14376639
I'll start to now.

>>14376609
This looks good. Thanks!

>>14376635
>This is some serious tinfoil shit
Most tinfoil shit actually applies to this game, I'm not sure if you're mocking him or cursing the devs.

>>14376635
Wouldn't the first time they did comp based drops.

How the fuck do I S rank E3

>>14376645
What was the first time?

>>14376609
Only 3 full ASW ships?
