Modernise your ships, they won't be of much good with this shitty stats. Your levels aren't too bad, and if you do easy fleet lock isn't an issue anyway. You might want to think about leveling Mogami n case you need a CAV.

Because CPU power directly correlates with RAM consumption. Because games rely only on the CPU.
>Touhou
You realize how little power Touhou games use, right? My 8 year old netbook used to run those games at perfect 60fps WITH browsers that had 20+ tabs open. Hell, my 6 year old Windows Phone 6.5 brick can open up a 1500 post thread without too much problem. If you have a computer that can't handle the load of a 1500 post thread, you need to either fix your shit because it's broken, or upgrade that old as fuck computer from the 90s.

Around what time does the "lottery" ? Last tweet told there was one on 4/29, (so today on JST), but it doesn't mention anything about when exactly during the day...

[Anonymous No.]

>>13396197
It just says "after tomorrow" on the tweet, I'm sure they'll put out another with the actual time.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13396182
According to wiki, for easy it's mostly CL/DD or SS, with the exception of a Ri Kai flagship on boss node. However your fleet is restricted to CL/DD only. You should be able to survive it if you modernised your armour.

>>13396197
Usually they will tell you closer to the actual timing.

[Anonymous No.]

Does it matter which order I put my ships in for the first event place?

[Anonymous No.]

>>13396708
In day battle, order matters only during 2nd shelling phase, but no BBs allowed so it doesn't apply on E-1. In night battle, ships always go from top to bottom so put your better ships up top to let them fire first. If you have one ship you want to protect you could put her as flagship for the protection but if she has lousy attack it will hurt you at night.

Doing E-2 right now, seems like I barely hit the enemy. Is that normal with the combined fleet missions or am I doing something wrong? I can still get S rank on the boss node but I feel like it's the most inefficient my fleet has ever been.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13397937
Yes that's normal. Just use defensive formations until the boss node

[Anonymous No.]

I can't clear 2-4 right now, so I'm trying to level up a fleet of 4 BBs, 1 CLT, and 1 CV at 2-4 node A. I'm looking to get all of them to level 25ish before trying to genuinely clear the level.

How bad a plan is this? What could I be doing better?

[Anonymous No.]

>>13398041
If you can already deploy 2-3 BB and 1 CV, then you should be able to clear 2-4

[Anonymous No.]

>>13398058
Enemy BBs take my BBs to yellow/red in a single hit, and they can't avoid attacks for shit- every single one lands. I was trying to level them to up their evasion, but it isn't showing much change at this point, and the repairs take forever.

[Anonymous No.]

Modernize your ships. What formation are you using? I hope it's not line ahead

[Anonymous No.]

>>13398190
Er... yeah, it is.

Line ahead is the best for surface damage, right? A mostly BB fleet should aim for high surface damage. ...Right?

[Anonymous No.]

>>13398197
If you're getting fucked, you should be using more defensive formations.
Try using double line, it's pretty versatile. Oh, and diamond when carriers are involved.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13398212
I will, thank you.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13398212
My fleet just got severely damaged trying double line. Things went about twice as badly as usual.

Gonna stick to line ahead.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13398230
Tried diamond or line abreast yet?
Also, you should definitely increase the armor for your BB. Their evasion isn't exactly something you should be relying on

[Anonymous No.]

>>13398246
The first remodels come at about level 25, right? It seems like a waste to focus on modernizing them so much when it won't last very long.

[Anonymous No.]

Are support expeditions locked too for next map?

[Anonymous No.]

>>13398257
By the time you're done with leveling them you should have quite a lot of repeated CL and CA
It should at least make getting them to their remodel level easier.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13398257
They remodel again 50 levels later and you should have a buttload of extra boats especially if you are farming single nodes. I have maxed out all but anti air on about every boat I've ever had before kai ni.

>>13398230
4BB 2CV or 3BB 3 CV(L). Modernizing armor should be a priority to prevent accidents in the normal nodes; Double Line helps by increasing the shelling accuracy of your BBs and CVs, which means more chance of taking out the grunts before they attack.

Line Ahead for the boss node.

Modernize the ships to 4 star minimum and max the armor, make them sparkle, lvl them up. With recenty kaied ships, it's difficult to clear E-1 even on easy mode. Also, you have to kill the boss 5 times to move to E-2

to add to why I'm saying it's a joke, you fight two single wo flags up to the boss node: with a carrier task force. literally even if you were using the worst possible planes you'd roll over those nodes. the only thing that could possibly taiha you and send you home are the ta classes on the preboss node, but there's only two of them and one of them isn't even a flag ta, it's an elite.

the boss node itself is also a pushover with flimsy escorts that will probably die in one shelling phase even without supports. Harbor water oni's armor is nothing special either compared to BB and Anchorage water oni's, she'll probably be downed in one sanshiki shot at night. (if she even lasts that long, I never had to yasen against her)

and e-5 doesn't require DD's, so there is absolutely no problem with locking your best DD's into E-3, if anything, I wish I did that and saved myself maybe a few buckets since I started the event with 40 and am running on 10 now at E-6.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13405157
its harder than E-1,2,4 but easier than E-5

so yes, it's easy. the only thing you have to fear there is sometimes having your CVLs get taiha'd. if they survive, it's pretty much a guaranteed kill at the boss.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13405157
>>13405201
I disagree. E1-3 was so easy I barely used 4k of each resource and 20 buckets. I've been stuck on final kill of E-4 after 6 clean kills and can't seem to get the last one. E-4 alone I've spent 3k of each and 60 buckets. All hard difficulty.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13405213
what's stopping you? are you not using sanshiki or something? i did actually yasen once against her and kongou did her entire hp bar in one shot. hard too of course

the escorts are paper except the flag ru kai, you can run a support fleet and it should decimate them even if your ships aren't strong enough to clear during day.

Not really sure. It was 5 clean kills in a row then a recall, then another clean kill. Now when trying to get to boss I'm getting critted pretty consistently preboss node. If I can't get it in a few more tries I'll start using support expeditions. Though I haven't needed them so far.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13405232
the preboss and boss are jokes of course, but on node D, you have a chance to fight either a mostly nu, or light cruiser oni. it's rng which one you face. If you get oni, and she decides to attack your CVL(s), it's fairly likely that they're going to get taiha'd. That's literally the only reason I consider it slightly harder.

>>13405239
by the flag ta I assume on node E? it's double line so it shouldn't be hitting that hard, but rng I suppose.

Which route? I think you're either damaged or out of ammo/fuel for sure without Suzuya+Kumano or Mogami+MIkuma

>>13413842
How to E-5:
1. Select a pair:
a) Suzuya+Kumano
b) Mogami+Mikuma
c) Either two of Choukai, Ryuujou, Yura
2. Select 2 BBs
3. If you have RJ - put another CA(V) in your fleet, if you have either pair of CAVs - use CV.
4. Crucial part - bring a submarine with repair fairy and put her in 6th position.

Pros of having a sub: night-battle node will only focus her. Boss and two fortresses (2 DDs in last kill mode as well) will only attack her during a day. Fairy won't even be consumed cuz boss attacks are very weak against subs and she won't even chip 2-3 hp left from night battle to "finish" her off.
Con (just one): she will probably only deal damage in first battle node and be useless on boss. But she keeps surviveability of other damagers pretty high.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13414091
I'm looking to put my fleet together for E5 and the sub sounds sketchy to me, mostly because I don't want to blow through my damecons. Is it worth doing with a level 75 Iku? My other options are just Imuya, Goya, and Hacchan, all around 60.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13414432
Probability that damecon will be consumed is very low. Most likely you will end up with sub being red with 3 hp after night battle and in boss battle she won't lose any hp.

Thank god for that. I almost lost Yuu when clearing E-5. Went to 1-1 to sparkle her and equipped double torps only to forget putting damecon back and proceeded to boss node with her on 1 HP. I realized it right after formation selection. Needless to say, I aged like 3 years in the few seconds the game reloaded after F5.
