I went to F with 50% chance with a setup similar as his (A-B-F-G route), but problem is it also grants a chance to get you to a maelstrom, at which point you might as well just return to base.

With a CAV (which I later switched to) you travel a different route to G (A-B-D-G), also with a 50% chance. No risk of maelstrom and there's even some consolation bauxite if you fail to get to G.

Sure, some are experts here.

Being forced to play with 2DDs makes the map to a random adventures.

2 CAs at least help you to get to G from F - without them the map would be completly random.

CAs should be enough to get a S in the boss node. But there is also a chance that the destroyers and carriers getting fucked by the BB in A or by the submarines.

You get the maelstrom (which is also 50% chance), you might as well turn back anyway since you won't get S rank at boss node with your gimped ammo.

From the 3carriers, put damekon on the weak link so you dont always retreat. Boss support every round so you can maximized your chance of S ranking it everytime you reach. They also prevent you from triggering the damekon on any of your carrier.

Alright, made almost all of the changes. Below are some of the ones I objected to
>Haha, it's a pity that the one that you wanted to talk to isn't here. \\ Doesn't exist from the looks of it?
BB Hime explains this later, so I don't think the admiral knew that.

>In that case, why not feel those joys fighting for me?
>In tthat case, you guys should fight for me
I'm keeping this one, since it flows with the previous sentence better.

>[I was just slightly picturing this thing entering me]
This one seemed clunkier than what I had without really making that big a change, so I'm sticking with the old one.

>[My diaphragm is getting stimulated by the friction...]
I'm using this, but doesn't that sound a little biologically impossible?

>If you're a weapon produced only to fight, there's no way you would be so weak
Left it it out for clunkiness

>[I'm falling...]
I thought about using this, but it seemed inappropriate given she's falling into the sea (sinking). I'll use it, though.

>[I've already became this man's shipgirl...]
This doesn't sound quite correct--"I already became this man's shipgirl" or "I've already become this man's shipgirl" both sound more logical.

>But that would be a problem. This is a war that we must win through a victory.
>Fight for me again once more, as a weapon
I'd stick with the old lines in this case as a stylistic choice.

I'm not sure using "meat toilet" as a literal translation is quite right either. The english equivalent is cumdumpster, and even the toilet part isn't exact.

Otherwise I've revised the script to your corrections. Reading back, I did make quite a few translation mistakes, so thanks for correcting it.

I really like how doublethink can help in E6. When you sortie, you have to simultaneously convince yourself and believe that you will get the last kill and fail the run at the same time. If you believe in the former only, you will be disappointed and frustrated most of the time and if you believe in the latter, then why try to sortie? It's only if you believe in these two contradictory belief would you maintain your sanity.

3rd fleet - boss support

I understand the battle mechanics. What I'm finding hard to believe is that you need that many ships. The combined fleet mechanics coupled with the phase locking mechanic means you need 6 x 2 x 3 = 36 unique ships that are properly trained and modernized, if I am understanding this correctly, which seems really excessive. And you have to choose every one of those 36 very carefully to boot, as you can't undo your decisions.

Combined fleet is MI only.
As for E-6, people use different fleets for chipping because BB, especially hotels, are expensive to run. Needing 2 CVL for the no-night battle route also might be problematic for your usual support fleets, though CV can do it too, they are just more expensive.

Aaand done. I told you it'd be quite long.

To everyone else: if there's any mistakes here, feel free to point them out. So here goes.

(Before I start: Type 0 observation seaplanes will be referred to as Yamato planes here.)

If you can get a Mogami or two to level 10 then things will go smoother (not that you really need to, but you'd be able to get a bit more effective LOS in MI). I recommend you save Haguro Kai 2 as well as your 2 best CAVs, in case you want more options for E6. If you can get Chikuma to level 70 and Kai 2 her save her alongside Tone, otherwise save Suzuya. (To be frank, Myoukou is the best CA for E6 due to her high luck, but you don't have her, so, well.) You have 9 CA(V)s total so that means you can spare 2 for AL and 4 for MI and still have those 3 left for E6.


Hiyou and Jun'you go to AL. You'll also need 2 CA(V)s for AL. I recommend 2 CAs since CAVs will be rather useful in MI for you. If you're using 4 DD 2 BBV for E1 then any 2 BBVs will do, you won't need them outside of AL. As for their loadouts, it's quite standard stuff; you can search the archives for that if you can't find the answer in this thread.

E3/E5: 3 CV (Akagi/Shoukaku/Zuikaku) 1 fast BB 2 CAV for main, 3 DD 1 CL 2 CA(V) for escort. I say 3 CVs because it guarantees you an easier route to the boss in E3, and if 2 CVs 1 CVL setup was enough for me (TTK level 106), 3 CVs is definitely enough for you.

CVs carry 3 green + 1 red (can be fighter-bomber or Suisei 12A) on each of them, with Reppuu Kai going on Akagi's third slot. This should net you just enough fighter power to meet air supremacy/superiority where feasible.
Fast BB carries 2 46cm cannons + 2 Yamato planes. Or 2 46cm + 1 35.6cm + 1 Yamato plane (taking into account overload mechanics), just in case you get a less favourable engagement modifier.
CAVs in main fleet can just carry 4 Zuiuns (or any other seaplane bomber) each.

DDs have cut-in/double attack setup + type 22 or 33 radars or yasen equipment (searchlight, star shells).
CL carries 2 red guns + night recon plane if you have any, or Yamato seaplane if you don't.
CA(V)s in escort fleet carry 2 red guns, as well as 2 seaplanes if CAs, or 2 Zuiuns if CAVs.


E4's setup is slightly different from E3/E5. Akitsu Maru directs you to node B instead of node A, whereupon it's a 50% chance to go south and a 50% chance to go to the sub node.

If you want her in the fleet, replace one of the CAVs in the main fleet with her, and put 3 Reppuus on her. The CVs will then carry 1 blue 2 green 1 yellow. Reppuu Kai in Akagi's largest slot as usual, and the Tenzan Tomonaga can be on any of the three CVs.
If you don't want her in the fleet, replace the 2 Saiuns on Shoukaku and Zuikaku with Reppuus. If you want to, you can do the same for Akagi.

As for the escort fleet, only the CA(V)s matter. Replace one of their planes with sanshiki, and put them at the bottom of the fleet (escort fleets for MI can be in any order otherwise, but personally I just stuck to 3 DD, then 1 CL, then 2 CA(V)).

As for E6... worry about that when you clear E5, but if you followed these steps, you should be able to use just about any feasible setup with the ships you have, without AL/MI gimping you too much.


Note 1: when you get to any sub node in MI (E4 has one, E5 has two), don't use the ASW formation unless you want a ship crit to red. Use top right or bottom right to avoid damage. Personally I used bottom right.

Note 2: It is encouraged to put double attacks on DDs when doing E2 or E4, as torpedo cut-ins can't be used against bosses and 3 gun cut-ins deal less damage than double attacks.

Note 3: Using 2 support fleets is key to clearing E2 (and E6) effectively. Any 2 DDs + any 2 BBs + any 2 CV(L)s will do for support, though of course the stronger the better, within reason (for instance, I don't expect you to put the hotels in your support fleet, but if you want to for any reason, go ahead). If you lack CV(L)s, just farm Hiyou/Jun'you, max their firepower, put 4 Suisei 12A/Ryuusei Kai on them, and they can do 160+ base damage easy.

Note 4: If you're comfortable with using cut-in setup on BBs with high luck, go with Kongou for MI. If you're not, go with Haruna for MI instead.

Note 5: I hope you have enough DDs for this! You'll need 9 or 11 DDs total (2 or 4 for AL, 3 for MI, 4 for 2 support fleets).

Note 6: If you lack radars and Yamato planes, you can try 20/20/250/250 with a CV flagship. Not sure how many Yamato planes you'll need, but three type 33 radars should be enough for the whole operation.

Non boss support for chipping gauge, double support to deliver the final blow. support fleet will make it much easier. I only beat the E-2 map, never farm it, so it's less than 10 runs, but from my experience, the pre boss node always has subs as long as my support fleet shows up in first node.

Some Kai Nis are actually really nice aditions to your fleet. Haguro and Myoukou are great CAs which arguably are better than the Ise and Fusou Class BBs. Jintsuu Kai Ni has beastly stats and good equipment. Kirishima Kai Ni has the best FP amongst BBs except the Yamato Class. Tone and Chikuma Kai Ni are, by far, the best CAVs and almost on par to Ise and Fusou Class if you trigger Artillery spotting; tthey become even better at night. The luck DD triad: Shigure, Yukikaze and Ayanami is definetly worth leveling given their high probability at performing a Cut-In. Kitakami is the best CLT and arguably the best CL if you take into accoount her luck and cut-in chance at night. Nagato is also the Highest luck BB which also gives a bigger probability of cut-in at night. Souryuu and Hiryuu become Kai Ni very late but bring excelent stats and equipment.

All iin all, the outstanding ship are the ones with unique equipment, versatility and luck stat.

>>12389566
You don't need a combined fleet for E6? Well, that simplifies things a lot more. I guess I'll just dump my best DDs into MI then.

I'm not sure about my support fleets. Probably

BB: Any two of the 3 Kongous
CVL: Zuihou, I guess Shouhou? I have a level 12 one
DDs: Not sure as well. I might decide to put Yuudachi here plus Shimakaze since I don't have Ayanami K2

Have you tried using a no-BB fleet on E6? I see there's a composition with 2 CLTs, 2 CA(V)s and 2 CVLs, that sounds really attractive since it's so cheap.

DDs are fine too, I can move the supers around no problem.

Regular support, along with boss support, is key to completing E2 and E6, their last kills in particular.

As I said before, if you lack CVLs, you can either replace them with CVs (which cost somewhat more but can also deal more damage) or farm for level 1 Hiyou/Jun'you and just stuff them in the support fleet. They can still deal 160+ damage like that.

E-6 is some stupid shit. Basically either taking the hime carrier node or the yasen node, and praying that your ships don't get critical damaged on both ends, which is probably like 90% of the time. Then praying your CLTs can survive until yasen at boss node, and hoping they hit that boss.

Why do you do this, Kancolle devs?

The second BB Hime is a copy that can regenerate as long as the original exists. That's why killing the flag Hime will clear the map, because it also destroys the copy (slowly, after the battle).

That's my setup. ELOS > 110 is fine according to nips, I've been trolled into the deadend once or twice I think out of 40-50 runs so things may screw up.

Yamatoplanes give 12 ELOS, T32's 10, Saiun 12. If your LOS isn't cutting it due to levels/not wagahai-class then remove the flare for another t32. Don't use seiran/zuiuns as they can get shot down and indicate a loss in LOS on KCV.

I beg to differ. Sometime after August 2013, we were bombarded with questions that could be easily rectified with a FAQ or sort. The wiki was initially setup for a easy reference and to host said FAQ. It works initially however, the wiki soon became a community on its own and /jp/ divorced from it.

It still serves its function though. Sure there are still people asking questions when they could find it on the wiki but it was much better than before.

Either the devs were trying to make up for something to make me feel better or they really were assholes in making my last dance very anticlimactic. This setup took three boss battles, but the very last one got a decent support barrage followed by a really ridiculous day battle in which the himes were humiliated by misses except on Kaga. Then Kitakami failed to cut-in on the wrong target while the gunboats just went ahead to dogpile on for a hime feast.

S rank reward was the one DD I missed, motherfucking Hayashimo. Game proceeded to iizz a big-ass star on Isokaze's face.

E-6 report for those still struggling with that bloody double hime as promised.

1) Chipping
I used KTKM (DA setup), Chikutone, Yamato, Musashi and Taihou.

It's probably the best thing you can do to cheap the gauge quickly, the Yamatos will rape anything in the boss node except for the hime, and then it's night turkey shooting time.
The really fucking annoying part is the night node, since garbage DDs can cut-in rape anything without a care in the world.
I passed that bullshit only once and then got dead-ended, so either be prepared to lose a million of steel or just use F5.

2) Final kill
Ironically, full kills are relatively common against the single hime, but the same setup is not really going to work now.
(Also going full Yamato made me poor so I switched to CVLs to increase efficiency).

There are at least three ways to do this:
- CLT 3BB 2CVL
Put a flashlight on the third BB, pray to KTKM.
The good thing is that BBs are sturdy and able to remove trash mobs, the bad one is that they're expensive and kind of suck at night.

- CLT CA 2BB 2CVL
Some CAs have Yamato-tier night power, they're cheaper and still somehow robust.
Myouko's luck make her an interesting choice for dishing a 200 cut-in on the hime but the flagship spot is reserved to KTKM so it's another gamble.
The downside to this is that CAs are weaker in day battle and more boss escorts could survive

- 2CLT 2BB 2CVL
Pros: CLTs are the best when it comes to night power
Cons: They also have crappy armor and their shelling is weak.

Oh, and CVLs were 3reppuu/3saiun/2damekon for the whole thing, for those wondering.

I was quite skeptical about sparkling after a billion failures at that last kill but I did get it with 85+ sparkle on everybody so maybe my patience was rewarded, who knows...

Last tip: Against the preboss hime, line abreast is the best.

I'm going to tell you to use diamond formation with a fast fleet at preboss, but there'll be weird people who go "line ahead lol" in this thread here, so you can make your call

Justification for diamond in preboss with that chip comp I started sharing a few threads ago is that opening saiun downs DD's, and you only have to duck ONE attack from Hime, or Wo if she isn't downed in time instead of Ri.

Diamond reduces the opening airstrike, and even if some DD/CA's survive your weakened hits, the torpedoes will easily be dodged with diamond, so take of it what you will.

Final kill comp with big hotels and stuff should be double-line though. Hankousen double-line sparkles is generally safe.

Finally finished this shit hole of a map. Passed nearly 300 sorties on E-6 alone mainly due to composition testing around the first few days of the event. Can't say that I'm too fond of blowing over 160k resources on the last map, but it was an enjoyable ride.

Some composition notes based on my speculation:
- 2CVL/2CLT/2BB - not that reliable unless you run damecons. Always north route.
- 2CLT/CA/3CV - used this composition heavily after the initial few days because it was reliable in getting to the boss. AC- H or F at random.
- SS/CV/CLT/3BB - not reliable at all unless you damecon on the sub which I wasn't willing to do. Usually ends up being double night battle route, sometimes hits the sub node if you're lucky.
- 2CLT/2CA/2CV - Worse than running 3 CV's because of 2 useless ships opposed to 1. CV's end up being reppuu and saiun mules like the CVL composition.
- CLT/2BB/2CA/CV - used this one for final boss kill, decent composition with five night battle capable ships. Hotels are nice for tanking but if your other ships miss the bb hime, it's over from there. Also random between H or F node
Ran most of these compositions a good number of times, with the 3CV composition being used the most to chip after failing to reach the boss with the other ones so often.

As for sparkling, never noticed it did anything for the boss support expedition at all. It probably is worth doing for your main fleet however, though I still find it to be placebo as my last run didn't have any sparkles due to limited resources. In the end, you just have to get lucky really as some people tend to clear this in 10 sorties.

I did, 150 maximum. I don't hate my money enough to buy 50 more. Generally, I collect every unique ship and use duplicates as modernisation material, with the exception of Chiyoda and Chitose as I need the seaplane tenders and CVL. Taigei would be another one as soon I can get a duplicate.

I've got 130 ship slots now. I think they've been completely worth it.

As for deciding which ships to keep, go through and get rid of duplicates first, then eliminate any ships (especially DDs) that you find ugly and that aren't required for any quests you haven't completed yet. That works for me.

There's 142 unique ships in the game now, so keep that in mind.

Superiority at boss node is enough. Not like you're going to get much double attacks out of your fleet anyway. A Reppuu Kai on Hiryuu's second slot, a Reppuu on Souryuu's first slot and a Reppuu on any of Jun'you's first 3 slots will be enough for air superiority there. After putting the Saiun on Hiryuu's 4th slot, just stuff the rest with reds and blues.

DDs are fine although I usually replace one of the torps with a sonar because of the second node. I favour a sanshiki to AP ammo for Kongou because I don't trust daytime cut-ins.

Though 1 boss encounter in 7 tries seems a bit too much, I cleared it in less than that without support fleets.

If you're talking about E-6, yes you should sparkle every run. It's boring and takes some resources, but it pays off big time.

To put this in perspective, I did my first day of attempts with no sparkle just to see how much of a difference sparkling would make. I reached the boss node twice in 20 runs. The next day, I sparkled to 85 every run and was now reaching the boss node ~40-50% of the time.

Also, you can beat the map with the ships you have. It won't be cheap or easy though, so decide in advance if you have the resources and determination to eat defeat after defeat until you can pull out a win.

That would depend on how many buckets you have. You have enough resources to beat the map, even with comparatively bad luck, but some compositions take more runs to get the gauge down.

If you use the 2 CVL route, you'll avoid all of the night battles but will always have to go through a node that has Yorktown. She is not that threatening when she spawns in diamond formation (it makes her miss a good portion of the time); the problem is when she spawns in double line. She will almost always hit, and it's a rare day when your ships don't get 1 hit to red by her.

If you use the 2 CA(V) route, you will win the first two battles handily but come up against a night node that will always have a Ta-class configured for double attack and 2-3 destroyers configured for cut-in. Said node will also occasionally have a Ri-class CA that can double attack as well.

I went with the latter route because, while somewhat more expensive on resources, I felt it was cheaper on buckets overall due to my fleet having less dead weight. With only 1 CV, you have a higher chance of killing all of the enemy ships during the day battle and more ships that can hit the boss at night.

Other notes:

*Save your hotels for the final kill unless you're having exceptionally bad luck chipping.
*You need at least 126 fighter power to activate artillery spotting at the boss node.
*There's a LoS check to reach the boss node. Try to aim for aroun 110 effective LoS and add more if the compass is fucking you over.

You want enough to get superiority at the boss node, obviously. In my experience, if you go with the Yorktown route, you'll probably lose about 20 to 40 fighter power if you only get parity and not superiority. Obviously, this can compromise your ability to get superiority at the boss node if you do not have an appropriate buffer in place.

The only reason the Fall event is remembered as difficult is because things that are common knowledge now--like sink mechanics, massive stockpiles before events, submarine abuse etc--were poorly understood at the time. If you took a group of adequately prepared TTKs of the current era and threw the Fall event at them, they would rip right through all of it except maybe E-4.

Also, Spring E-5 was, as far as I know, the first event map that broke from the trend of slow ship bullying. People who had both Hotels and Nagatos had a very easy time clearing it, while those who did not ended up spending several times more in resources to beat it. Either way though, it wasn't nearly as difficult or frustrating as E-6 of the current event.

The issue isn't whether he can bring down the gauge with those resources but whether he can get the final kill in time for the conclusion of the event.

If he gets the bar down in 4-5 days, which is a fair estimate given the limited number of sorties he can do, that leaves him 3-4 days to get the final kill. During those 3-4 days, he can't do as many attempts as he did before because he'll have to run boss support every attempt and has to contend with a guaranteed 2 BB Hime at the boss node.

I could understand giving it a try if it was Shinano on the line, but the current reward, while not as bad as people first made it out to be, isn't worth the frayed nerves and crushed hopes that this admiral will have to contend with if he tries E-6 while so grossly unprepared.

Or if you prepare enough.

Went with 4 DD 1 CL 1 BB with one of the DDs as flagship. I had damecon on every DD and CL that wasn't the flagship. Ended up spending exactly 0 buckets because I was smart enough to rotate out injured DDs and only repair scratch.

Only if they had the yasen equipment we have now. I for one know that I'd have difficulty with the night battle maps if you threw me into a time machine and made me do E4 with the fleet I had at the time.

Maybe the only edge I'd have over the majority would be that since I valued CAs highly from day one and kept getting sanshikis from 46cm crafts, even with the knowledge back then I'd have been able to clear the map with somewhat less difficulty than the average player back then. Then again, I was slow to grind my CLTs so I'd have likely encountered more difficulties at E5 than most.

Nah.

The update will not only extend the event, it will also add a new operation (or two, if the devs are especially sadistic) where you cannot send ships you have already sent to AL, MI or E6. Ships already sent to E6 before the update will be exempt from this restriction, giving those who have already completed E6 an edge over the rest.

There will be at least 2 new maps (maybe more), one with Ibuki as clear reward and one with Shinano as clear reward. For the remaining duration of the event only, if you have Ibuki as flagship you get a chance to craft Ibuki in construction, and likewise for Shinano.

Oh, and if you get redirected off the route to the boss for the final map, you get a couple of ridiculously hard battles in succession (which may or may not have good drops), but if you continue to the end node, it's a resource node that gives a medal. Time to farm them medals.

Don't get me wrong, I wish you good luck, but never trust RNG and don't forget that devs are massive faggots.

Your attack planes should incapacitated them most of the time.

The problem is my support torps and airstrike usually just take out the cl and dds, so even if the ta misses the cvls will attack second or third before my own cvs can respond.

No, it's as rare as the subs hitting anyone with real damage on the next node.

Try skilled crew. It helped be a little.

Anyone got an estimated minimum resource needed for E5?

>> No.12396359

>>12396349
8k max. That's how much I spent in fuel. I spent less of the other resources.

It helped me* a little, of course.

Thank you. How about buckets? Sorry i forgot to include.

I spent 6k/2k/4k/3k and about 20-25 buckets.

That depends on how impatient you are.

Same. 8k fuel, not even 3k of everything else, and about 25 buckets.

50 buckets, but I bucketed even yellow damage. You can get by with even fewer if you're a little more daring.

Ah, i forgot you are using 2CLT and 1CAV.
Consider switching Ooi with another CA(V) to increase your chance killing the Nu-class.

Now that I'm on my final E-6 kill, Nagamon goes red more often then my CVLs. God damn, girl

Thank you! I only have 11k/20k/31k/14k/51. I guess ill farm more before doing E5. I'll just research about fleet composition and equipment for now.
