Looking at her lines, neither does Ryuujou. The Japanese just seem to think that every girl with a modest chest should feel an unbearable shame because it's the funniest thing ever. It never gets old. And for some reason it's always the people who appreciate a flat chest who love to make fun of it the most. What happened to perfect as she is?

You can probably wing it by using natural regeneration. Recover up to the cap, do E1-3, recover, do E4, recover, E5, recover, E6. Even in the Fall event, the high-end bill for a solid E4 run was about 20k/15k/20k. These 50k resource reports are on the far end of the resource curve.

This event might be a bit more difficult because of bauxite regenerating slowly, but then you probably won't need much for the first few maps.

Any tips on how to consistently S rank 4-3 sub nodes while maintaining flagship MVP? Here's my general setup. I think the problem might be that sometimes my CVLs don't really do much damage to the slightly stronger subs. I tried experimenting with different planes but didn't really see much difference. The greens are there mainly for that south node, when there's a chance of enemy CVLs.

In tandem with expeditions, you can probably hit cap every 5-7 days, which is good enough for a month-long event. In addition, you may not use all your resources in every single attempt, so your leftovers will also count for the next map's supplies. Stockpiling unholy amounts of resources is only good as a safety net in case you really get unlucky, as in these unfortunate souls who failed to clear E4 after throwing everything at it.

These 50k+ reports are from very few players, unless you mean overall reports, which also take E6/7 runs into account.

From my (and many other players') experience, despite what the devs say, 2 type 3 sonars will be better than sonar + depth charge combo.

Replace Mutsu's AP ammo with something else like another radar, it's not like she can't onehit most of the sub nodes' shit anyway (that she can hit). If you're willing to tank node J when you hit it, you might want to consider a sanshiki. Or replace her with a BBV equipping 2 46cms and 2 seaplane bombers with high ASW. Best case scenario then, would be to leave one non-sub alive due to night battle and allow Makigumo to finish it off for MVP. For best effects, put the BBV in the second slot if that's the case.

For Houshou I'd go with blue/blue/red or blue/green/red and for Jun'you I'd go with green/blue/blue/red or green/green/blue red respectively, to make their attacks more equal.

I wouldn't give Kiso more than a type 3 sonar or 2 type 90+ ASW equips (which are weaker), but otherwise Kiso will be stealing MVP from Makigumo. Every single time. This also applies to any CL(T)s or DDs you may replace any of your other ships with. Also, go line aboob at 4-3 and her opening torps will miss just about every time so it shouldn't be that much of a problem.

Finally, what's Goya doing there?

I didn't know a Makigumo with 2 sonars can actually steal MVP at J Node in these conditions. I will try it out then.

The only non-subs there are either an elite transport ship or 2 elite CLs. Using a BBV would reduce the damage you do to them, when compared to using Mutsu.

Admittedly it's with remodelled and fully modernised DDs that can deal 100+ damage to those kinds of ships at night, but if Makigumo is strong enough she should still be able to pull it off. I do admit I'm a bit worried for her torp stat though (night battle damage is firepower + torp).

Subs are useless for tanking when you do sub node runs; it's not like they'll do anything against torp attacks, and only 1/3 of the battles will hit subs at all anyway.

You could try 1 BBV in 2nd slot, and 4 CLs carrying 2 weaker ASW equips. I used either 2 type 93 sonars or 1 type 93 sonar and 1 type 94 depth charge this way while farming Isuzus at 5-1 (4-3 left me quite a bad taste), and Isuzu got MVP over 80% of the time (the rest was due to RNG bullshit like Isuzu missing or getting hit in the pre-emptive torp phase).

Alright this was a quick one: Logbook v0.5.8

https://github.com/Zharay/logbook/releases/tag/0.5.8r30

Comes with the new Lv150 limit for the calculator. New ships, items, maps listings. A new notification reminder that tells you that you have a fleet that has returned from an expedition (and keeps reminding you every 3 minutes). It also comes with a new menu called the "Mission List" which I'm not 100% sure on as to what it does since we all are unable to play atm. Everything should be translated and working fine though.

People with the previous version will get a notification to update. Problem is that old version still takes you to the original Sanae-chan website. This has been changed to go to the GitHub page instead.

So I never used them CVs much but having finished 5-2 now where I was forced to use them I must say: Whats the point?

CVs spread their damage in the opening phase to little effect. CLT just kill.
I only have 4 +10 Fighters so I need to spend half to 2/3 of my hangar space on maintaining air superiority.
Can't launch at med damage:
Can't launch at night.
Terrible repair times.

They tend to take out weak mobs in opening phase with bombers which is good because your BB will hit them first most of the time.

Because CV > BB

There is no reason to bring more than 1BB in any sortie. You cannot go wrong with the bread and butter 1BB+CLT/CV fleet composition. Noobcake can always go 4BB+2CV but we all know how shitty that is. Why bring BB when CV offer superior firepower with cheaper cost?

>>11944747

CLTs and CV combination ensures that you go into night battle with minimal casualties.

CVs are superior battleships during the day and CLTs offer so much more during the night. They both thin out the enemy fleet before the battle starts.

Battleships tank, have good firepower during the day, and give a second shelling phase. No reason to have more than one in most circumstances

Also, night battle is not as common as you'd think. You'd only go to night battle at boss nodes and PvP.

not sure what you mean by "help with formation", but view range or LOS should only affect detection, and that shouldn't be a problem with high-levelled ships.

If you are doing your dailies at all you'll get a decent number of CVLs to use as modernization material, so I'd say that farming Isuzu is overall a waste of time and XP, and an artifact of the old times when no one knew what they were doing.

>> No.11945314

>>11945299
Both:
Keep one Isuzu to grind her to lvl 50: she is one of the better CL.
Any other Isuzu can be grinded to lvl 12 so you have radar 21 and modernization fodder for AA.

Right now, you should grind your ships and aim for a balanced ship pool (preferably 2-3 ships of each ship category to 20-30).
Also keep and grind those ships who are potent on the long run (mainly Kitakami, Ooi, Kiso and the 5 special DD).

>> No.11945315

>>11945299
Just level up any Isuzu's you find to her first remodel and take the radars off her, then scrap/modernize them.

Light Cruisers aren't extremely useful and her kai2 is nothing special so it's really up to you if you want to use her. If you like her hold onto her and there will be easier ways to level her in worlds 4 and 5. Otherwise
scrap/modernize.

Forgot to add 2-2, but my point doesn't change.

He said "doing dailies". The majority of dailies done that drop CVLs will be at 2-2 or 2-3, for transport ship quest or world 2 boss daily quest (just about all other sortie dailies you can do at that level are easiest done with 1-1 sparkle runs). 2-3 needs subs and hardly anyone at his level will be able to do 2-2 such that it'll be worth it.

Tell that to those who constantly meet carriers in PVP. AA is never useless at any level.

In any case, radars are useful in the long run because two 20.3s and one AA radar is a decent standard setup for a CL when you're not farming sub nodes (e.g. 3-2-A; in case you forget, AA radars increase accuracy too, not just AA). And in later stages we have maelstroms too, where radars will come in handy (especially when doing the world 3 weekly). It's always better to stock up earlier than stock up later. Like in fall when people were scrambling to craft sanshikis; those who already had sanshikis didn't have to worry. But unlike the Fall event, you actually know what equipment to prepare.

Of course AA is never useless, no one is going to make such a stupidly broad claim. But it's not a big deal at low levels. I doubt you'll be having problems with carriers at T level 18.

Type 21 radar is shit. You might as well put another gun if you're going to farm 3-2-A. Heck, I only notice a minor difference that may well be confirmation bias using 2 T14s on my fast BBs.

It's the timing thing. You should not need to farm Isuzu ever because at the early stages T21 and AA are not needed and at the later stages you should have CVLs from grinding and a few radars, possibly even better ones, lying around from crafting.

Sanshiki and T21 are totally different things. You are claiming that because of that one event equipment requirement it's always better to hoard all equipment as soon as you can. No, you don't, and least of all for the worst air radar via wasting XP farming Isuzu. Even then your example is not valid because you had a whole 3 weeks to craft your sanshiki. I had one sanshiki at the start and I cleared E-7 no problem.

Just because BBs are a bigger problem in PVP doesn't make carriers any smaller of a problem than they actually are. And there's nothing wrong with stockpiling AA since it's the hardest to get for modernisation even at higher levels where you can farm places like 2-3 for CVLs because you get even more CAs from there.

>You might as well put another gun if you're going to farm 3-2-A.
If you say so, then, but 2 20.3s and 1 radar is still the standard decent setup in case of night battle and double attack. In fact, going night battle is recommended because it practically guarantees your flagship the MVP.

>You should not need to farm Isuzu ever
I take it that you craft all your midget subs too?

>You are claiming that because of that one event equipment requirement it's always better to hoard all equipment as soon as you can.
I'm not claiming that you need to all the equipment just because you don't know exactly what you need, I'm claiming that you need to hoard equipment you know you need. And radars are just the thing for world 3 weekly quest. Yes, you can craft better ones, but there's only one group of people who are truly in the position to craft radars: those who have everything they need for Midway except Reppus.

>In fact, going night battle is recommended

On 3-2-A? Hell no. Even in general grinding going into night battle is not worth it.

I got my midget subs from Chitoda but guess what, I needed all of 2 subs and there are 2 Chitoda sisters! Who'd have thunk! And when Kiso Kai Ni came rolling about I had 5 from 46cm crafting. Amazing right?

For boss farming, no (unless we're talking about the boss node). But for EXP grinding? Yes. And night battle does make your flagship get MVP a lot more easily, especially if there's only one ship still alive at night. Stacking the other ships in order of night battle effectiveness also helps.

I made this list for practicality and availability, especially for those who can't hate money. Though to me, all CVs are hard to get and so belong here.

I'll update this list to include Agano sisters and Ise class.

>Spare subs are pretty important. 1 copy is good, 2 is a luxury.
I don't know how many spare subs is enough. I'm aiming for 6 of each, at least 2 of which are remodelled; but then again, I maxed out my docks.

Souryuu is about uncommon and not really useful. Shoukaku is pretty common from LSC but I guess she's rare overall.

3-2 is a retarded map in that you can beat it with a single, unmodernized level 1 DD while taking all 3 battle nodes and no damage. If you're this blessed then go ahead and craft Yamato, Taihou, and whatever rare ships you want, cuz the RNG gods love you.

If the RNG gods hate you, even if you have 6 level 150 fully modernized you will get kicked out after the first node. Maybe you won't even make it to the first node, you could get sent north every time. But if this ever happens to anyone, it's time for a trip away from civilization for a month in order to cleanse yourself.

At the end of the battle there's a green bar showing the % of enemy HP you removed, and a red bar showing the % of your HP the enemy removed.

For a B, either have the length of the green bar be at least 2.5x that of the red bar... or simply sink the flagship, like in pic related.

Fujikawa doesn't really have a stellar art to begin with.

Thus far, the most solid designer is Yoshinori. Konishi is pretty good if it wasn't for the kongou kai ni's mishaps (he did the crane sisters, melon chan, the agano).

Late reply, but ring formation is to protect Bep so she can ASW the the ass out of the troll sub. If she gets crit to orange you can say goodbye to your S or even A rank.

I can't put sonars on too many DDs otherwise I won't even be able to reach the boss node in the first place due to the enemy's cut-ins critting a DD to red. The purpose of the searchlights is to reduce the damage done to my ships from enemy cut-ins. And yet if I put just one searchlight on just one DD I'll have to turn back anyway because that one DD holding the searchlight will keep getting crit to red. So until a cap on the reduction of enemy cut-in rate is found, 5 searchlights seems the safest bet to me.

Not just levels, but the support fleet as well. Support shelling was only really useful in E5 during the last event, even in E4 you were usually better off getting more runs in unless you were running out of steel.

This event will probably feature more day battles than night, so 4x 46cm BB teams will make a much bigger impact. Being able to comfortably field a support fleet all the time will probably make the difference between easy clears and an E4-level nightmare, especially if they remove the regeneration and necessitate boss kills to decrease the gauge for some maps.

I just read CV Yorktown's history, I'm amazed that she has the best Damecon team that existed at that time. She got fully repaired 24 hours before the elite CV strike force of Nagumo arrives at Midway.

Fleet level: 50, but higher is better
Resources: Two cutoff points, one around 60-70k, the other around 100-110k, anything above these is also alright just in case.

The idea is that the first few maps will be trivial until a massive difficulty spike map, so with 60k resources you can waste ~20k on E1-3 and still have ~40k remaining for E4, and with ~100k you have an allotment of 40k resources for two hard maps.

A while back they said it was the most resource intensive event yet. The dev's estimate for the Fall event was 30k. At minimum I'd bring my bauxite up to 50k, which shouldn't be that hard if you run expedition 6 all day. Levels are a lot harder to predict since the most difficult maps have all been at night.

You really just need to survive on the way to boss - doesn't matter if you get S or C rank, if no one's in red you can push on (orange is safe, but CVs are nearly useless when orange so might want to pull back if a CV goes orange before boss).

Unremodelled Yamashiro is no longer a pure BB, but an aviation BB which can launch seaplanes to attack subs (but then will have to target any enemy subs). Trades a bit of attack for a boost in other stats.

Until the new map comes out we've got absolutely no estimates. Everything's speculation based on how they've called the upcoming event the hardest and most resource intensive. And said the enemy will have VT fuzes and that bauxite will be reworked. Not to mention the fact that carriers cost a good deal more than cruisers and destroyers. But I can tell you that the people citing 100k aren't talking about clearing the event, they're talking about farming it. You won't get the Yahagi of this event if you start with 30k.

Midway probably won't require more than 2 carriers per map, and Shiden Kai 2 is not unusable in itself. You're good to go, focus on resources.

After a while I crafted Yukikaze and Melon-chan, but even though it wasn't enough, I needed more firepower, then I crafted Mutsu, my first BB and carried me through world 2 until I got stuck at 2-4 and eventually cleared E-1 and got my first sub, Iku.

Unlike that Shiba Inu admiral, I knew from the start that you could repeat expeditions like you could repeat sorties, and diligently did them. There were times when I forgot all about the flagship level requirement and failed 3 expeditions in a row without knowing why.

Despite not knowing the refreshing trick in PVP at the time, my PVP win rate hovered at 80%-ish, and never once went below 75%. It's 93% now that I do know the refreshing trick. I can't even remember the last time I lost a PVP match.

Considering their older CV got their fuel tanks incorporated directly into the structure of the carrier resulting on vibrations being transferred to the tanks and damaging them permanently that would be somewhat correct.
So gradual slot degradation upon reliance on buckets maybe?

Just joking of course,what kind of sick bastard would do such a thing.

So going from 20/60/10/110 to 10/60/10/100 will lose saiun, right? 7 of them is more than enough to last forever.

About 50 5-4 runs, still no Suzuya. Am I being rused?

Yes.

is the hybrid fighter-bomber in it too ?
I guess it should, since 10/30/10/30 is supposed to wield it, but I want to make sure.

I'm in the opposite boat, anon. Over 50 runs, over 5 Suzuya, no Kumano.

Yup.

I think I've only gotten 1 Kumano from all these runs. The sisters are pretty rare huh.

5-4 has been really kind to me. Uzuki, Agano, Kumano and tons on Naganami

All these subs.

All these Suzuyas.

All these gold carriers.

And all I want is a Naganami.

Just the usual RNG trolling. I've gotten 5 Suzuya, 3 Shoukaku, 2 Zuihou, 2 Akigumo, no Uzuki. Also no Naganami but Uzuki is the one I really want.

Yes. I remember them fondly. First craft is Kisaragi, first drop is Hatsushimo.

But I liked the Fall event days better. Fighting tooth and nail with no levels, no resources and only a single CLT made clearing E4/E5 all the sweeter.
