Christmas Voices and Naka Christmas sprite are being removed tomorrow. Naka sprites will be viewable in the library.

New Years furniture will be added in with an update on the 30th, and you can obtain them by logging in any time after the update but before 11:59 on the 31st.

Just got maruyu. Is there any point in leveling her up or she is pretty much an expedition use sub?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743203
Feed her to your other ships to increase their luck.

>>11743203
Just use her for that 4-sub expedition.

>>11743203
She's still terrible even if you give her your best torpedo. Pretty much only for modernization or expeditions. Her damaged sprite is nice if you find her cute, though.

You cannot beat two ring formation filled with fog cruisers with subs. Dont be cheap and use your normal ships.

[Anonymous No.]

I guess she caters to certain fetish. Not my type but I will definitely use her for the 40 hour+ expedition once the event's over.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743218
Right?
Wait, I cleared the map, this is for Kumano farm.

[Anonymous No.]

Can someone give me a rundown of what each type of ships are good for?

Just keep doing it with subs if you have tons of time.
I was doing it with 6subs and I cant even make it pass that BB+3fog cruisers node without going red half the time. Thank god I got Naganami fast with my normal fleet.

DD
- Cheap
- Good for ASW and expedition
- High evasion rate
- Low armour

CL
- Cheap
- Upgraded version of DD except with less evasion
- Good for ASW and arguably AA. Usually serve as support

CLT
- Cheap
- Remodel them at level 10 and equip them with midget subs to get pre-emptive torp
- Pretty much can one-shot anything in any torpedo phase but you would need to invest in them. It's worth it though.
- Pretty good ASW stats as well.

DD/CL/CLT
- Lack of firepower means that they are not very good against CA and above.
- Lack of armour as well means they are pretty fragile.
- 2 slots initially and 3 slots when remodel. So equipment-wise, they are limited.

CA
- Jack of all trades, master of none except ASW
- Depending on who you ask, pretty much a wildcard if you find yourself wanting to add a ship other than BB/CV/CVL
- Decent firepower and 3 slots at one go. They are really unremarkable.

DD/CL/CLT/CA
- Night battle is their main forte espcially with CA because of they have a buff in night battle. Firepower+torpedo and equipment are the main factors in night battle.

BB
- King of the seas except ASW.
- Pretty much good against everything except submarine.
- Can tank a lot as well.
- Grants your fleet a second turn at attack. (Enemy applies as well)
- Expensive to maintain.
- Aviation BB with seaplanes can attack submarines as well but not as effective unless you stack the seaplanes.

What's their buff amount in night battle again?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743267

Firepower+torpedo, and then double attack/cut-ins

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743267
there is none, they just use firepower + torpedo stat, which makes them seem strong compared to BB due to them having torpedo at 0.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743259
>>11743237
Cont'd

CV
- Queen of the seas except ASW
- Pretty much good against everything except submarines
- Can tank pretty well
- Grants pre-emptive strikes but damage depends on your planes.
- Damage during shelling phase depends on the status of your air superiority (I think)
- Expensive to maintain

CVL
- Cheaper version of CV
- Can attack submarines
- Cannot tank very well
- Easier to maintain

SS
- Submarines, depending on their torpedo stats are poor man's CLT. Their preemptive strike given at level 10, can knock out BB and below pretty well if their torpedo stats are maxed out and armed with the right equipment
- BB/CV/CVL/CA cannot attack them.
- Fragile as fuck especially if the enemy is armed with depth charge or sonar
- If not, they are pretty good at dodging at a higher level
- Resource-wise, very efficient. Repair time is pretty short as well. It will double when they are remodelled.
- Generally, good against CA and below (Depending on stats). Iku and Hachi can shoot down a BB as well.

>>11743272
CA did get a buff updates ago. How much, I'm not very sure. They probably boost the torp stats instead.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743275
>- BB/CV/CVL/CA cannot attack them.
While the rests are forced to attack them first.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743278
Oh shit, forgot about that. My apologies. Yeah, subs are magnets for CL and DD.

That's strange, I could've sworn someone said something along the lines of destroyers having 5x damage in night battle or something. Unless I'm mistaken.

Error here, CVLs can attack submarines.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743285
Nope.
I would be running 1BB+5CV if CV doesnt consume bauxite.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743288
>CVLs can attack submarines.
Our CVL can attack their SS, their CVL can't attack our SS.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743284
Arguably, a BB armed with common items are probably a bit more effective than a CV armed with common planes. Even if you consider Suisei as common, BB are still pretty much equal.

>>11743288
My bad. I'm talking about abyss fleet. Should have made that clarification.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743288
that was probably before people figured out that night battles use firepower + torpedo regardless of used weapon

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743290
>>11743291
Fair enough.

I wouldn't be surprised if they changed that though. Sounds like a bug to me.

Also add that CVLs and CVs cannot attack in the shelling phase if their HP is orange or below.

Thanks!

There is a CV that can do that now though.

Oh yeah, farming 4-3 is so reliable and efficient, especially how you don't even have to worry about the J node. Fuck you too.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743298
Yeah.

Watch out for the yellow abyss CV that can, though. It can also attack even with red HP.

>>11743299
Didn't they give her a different classification?

And she still can't attack in red, last I checked.

CV = standard carrier, no?

>>11743342
Akagi, Kaga, etc: 正規空母, regular CV
RJ, Zuihou, etc: 軽空母, CVL.

The other armored CV that IJN had was Shinano, which will make her monstrous if she comes to this game. Imagine armored CV with almost 150 slots.

[Anonymous No.]

Why can subs put on Sonars?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743299
What's her resource consumption like?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743358
Lets just add the same question about the planes on subs too. Equipped every single of my subs with Seiran/Zuiun, it worked pretty good in the first node. They didn't have any planes for the second node which was retarded.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743349
Just read up on Shinano, what a depressing as fuck history. Even worse than Mutsu's fate. Willing to bet if she ever made it in game she'd have 1-2 luck.

I think they will announce it before the update. Not very sure but I'm willing to bet the Kotatsu will be gone.

>>11743377
Unfortunalty, I've not gotten them as I'm avoiding LSC like a plague. I'm sure some anons would know better. I think they have an item that could boost expedition's spoils.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743377
Pro - she comes with a Large Supply Ship piece of equipment that gives +5% expedition gain to any ship that has it equipped.

Pro - once you remodel her she comes with an ASW helicopter and airplane.

Con - she is pretty much worthless in every other regard, until you remodel her.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743379
So they won't stealth remove them tomorrow along with the Naka sprite and other Christmas voices?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743384
Maybe the christmas trees? Just grab them while they're there.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743383
So combat wise she's pretty useless?

Is her attack just a seaplane bombardment or something? Or does she not even have an attack?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743302
i F5 everytime i got to J node, but you need a good amount of ships to switch around since after the second F5 most of them will be orange.

The difference with Armored CV is that they can still send planes on red damage, right? (or was it orange?)

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743399
It's orange.

Orange.

>>11743390
She can equip 12.7 red/green cannons, yellow sub-cannons, green planes (no red or blue), turbines, AA guns, and democon. Her fully upgraded ATK stat before remodel is 19.

It seems like the only thing to do with her is grind her in order to remodel her, then give her equipment to other ships.

She isnt really exactly.
By doing LSC, you have a 40% combined chance of either getting her or Taihou. She is the penguin of Taihou craft.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743424
Largely useless but very versatile, they can be equipped with midget subs after you remodel them. The problem is that one of the expedition requires two of them so you must keep duplicates if you wish to upgrade them to CVL. On the topic of CVL, their level 50 remodels are worth it, so I've heard.

>>11743426
The devs stated they have plans but if you're hoping to see USN ships, don't bet on it.

You're going to F5 for fuel? Are you an idiot? The nodes afterwards rarely have ships than can hit you in the first place.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743458
If you can get past the first battle (nodes B or C depending on your route) without having taken any real damage then each node after that has like 1 unit that can hit subs. The boss can have up to 3 but you won't hit that every time.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743488
>>11743494
That's fair, guess I'm just a little worried with it is all since it took me so long to get these subs and I don't want to lose them. I didn't think to check the nodes later in the map to see how dangerous they were for them I guess.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743500
I run solo imuya on 2-3 since she was like level 15, she normally can get through the whole map and you don't have to care about anything because a solo ship can't be sunk. Also repair times are short and even if they wre long you can bucket and resend becaues soloing gives you more fatigue than you lose (or backwards actually since fatigue is a bad thing).

They did mention that it's scaled to level, on what level, I'm not very sure. It could be luck as well, I had been lazed three times in E-2 boss node (Each of them bringing my one of my ships to orange) and I still managed to deplete the boss guage.

while it's not that bad, it still can shoot your ships to red. Including BBs.

A success is something to report on, since it proves you can have her with 1 devkit, but a failure in't much interesting because it's just a misclick or something.

>>11743856

I am talking about doing it with full fleet 1BB 2CLT 2CV 1CVL. Finish everything off including the boss node.
If you dont want to fight the boss in 5-2, do the bauxite route. I believe you have to remove your CVL to get sent south. Reset when they sent you to BB node.

For 5-1 just bring 6DD/CL and put all your type3 sonar at your flagship so that she alwaus get MVP. Bringing BB is no good since you lose fuel at the whirlpool but it does guarantee S rank. You only lose 4fuel if you bring 6DD.

As long as you have radar, your fleet will take lesser loss in ammo/fuel however the radar effect doesn't stack. If you really wish to grind it fast, bring a BB along like what >>11743865 suggested. Those subs can be pretty hard to sink.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11743876
>radar effect doesn't stack
I don't know about that but when I was running on E-2, I hit a whirlpool with only 2 of my ships having radar and it took out 38 ammo. When I replaced one of my ships with another one that has radar for a total of 3 radars, the reduction this time was only 18.

According to my testing: putting multiple radars on a single ship won't stack (for whirlpools).
Putting radars on multiple ships do stack.
So it's not about "number of radars" but "number of ships with radar".

I'd go with (in this order): Arpeggio Haruna, Arpeggio Takao, Iona, Kitakami, Akagi, Shoukaku. The BBs are just deadweight here. Unless you have some other ship that can replace Kita-chan. I used Nachi in that slot.

Also, max your modernization on everything you can. At the very least, max armor for all your non-event ships, as well as firepower and torp stat for Kita-chan (or whoever you're using for your 4th slot).

Yes, but they also drastically up your success rate. Every time I reached the boss node I cleared it with them in my fleet.

They're costly, but they're worth every unit of fuel, ammo and steel you spend using them, because they damn well get the job done. Besides, they don't cost that much. Every time I did my run of 3 fog ships, 1 filler and 2 CVs, I spent like 1k of fuel, 600+ ammo and less than 1k steel, after a successful run. Failures cost me 3/4 of that tops, as long as the failures come before the boss node (if you reach the boss node it should be easy).

Also, after the last run you can don't replenish them if you want, so you really only have to have enough resources for 4 successful runs.

By the way, if you use Haruharu or Tsunkao, make sure you use both. No point using only one, you'll only be wasting your resources like that.

Even with Tsunkao in E-2 I got owned before the boss node a number of times, because I didn't have Haruharu at the time. I eventually gave up and used Iona, 3 CAs and 2 CVs to clear E-2.

Long story short, you need to stack the overkill to get any results. My results involved having none of my fog ships go to orange or red because I used them all together.

It's not, look at the evasion stats of the two ships.
Level 14 Nagato has 27, while Level 81 Kai 2 Hiei has 65. Hiei is going to get hit less, and take less damage too (95 armor vs 89 armor)

Of course if you can get Kaga early on, she's useful. For most people, Akagi will be their highest level CV, and considering Kaga is the only CV who's clearly better than her in performance, I'd say Akagi is the most useful CV.

Mutsu is much easier to get (unless you get lucky in shipbuilding), and performs just as well as Nagato from my experience.

At least I completed the event. I didn't know sunk fog ships could still have their Klein field on. When Haruharu double attacked Maya the first hit sunk her but the second hit "missed". Unfortunately I was unable to save that moment, but pic related (day battle complete) is good enough.

really? must have miscounted my kills then

[Anonymous No.]

>>11744548
1 node right? So in total she has 4/1 per bar (divided by 2 since 1 node without night battle uses 2 bars). Boat gives 5% boost so:

Expedition 5 200 fuel/ammo 20 steel/bauxite reward, consumes 5 fuel bars
200 x 0.05 = 10 fuel/ammo boost
20 x 0.05 = 1 steel/bauxite boost
4 x 5 = 20 consumed fuel
200 + 10 = 210 fuel/ammo reward
20 + 1 = 21 steel/bauxite reward
210 - 20 = 190 fuel total fuel gained
So you'll lose 10 fuel with 1 boat, break even with 2 and gain 10 fuel at 3 boats.

Expedition 9 350 fuel reward, consumes 5 fuel bars
350 x .05 = 17.5
350 + 17.5 = 367.5
367.5 - 20 = 347.5 total fuel gain
1 boat you lose 2.5 fuel, 2 boats you gain 15 fuel, 3 boats you gain 32.5 fuel

tldr: stack boats and send her to long expeditions. Also take my calculations with a grain of salt, it's almost morning here.

35/45 total so divide by 10 = 3.5/4.5 per bar, not that much profitable. Also, according to wikiwiki you can stack the effect up to 20% I think, only use 3 boats on the example cause Akitsumaru Kai only has 3 equipment slots.

She is the best non-Chitose/Chiyoda Fast CVL, and has higher luck than any other CV.

She is crushed in plane count by the Slow Junyou/Hiyou, and in overall stats/even plane capacity by fully remodeled Chitose/Chiyoda, but is otherwise pretty decent. Really though there isn't enough difference to where you HAVE to use specific CVLs to succeed, since ALL CVLs are garbage vs battleshits and anything lesser they all work for (for the most part anyways, RIP in pieces Houshou), so really she's a slightly above average CVL that takes a lot less work to get decent than Chitose/Chiyoda do.

Also she's cute as fuck, arguably the penultimate quality in kancolle.

No more than one voice line should be active at once.

Finally getting I-401 has emptied most of what matters within my warehouse. I really wish they would implement some sort of resource exchange system; I wouldn't even mind if the ammo-to-fuel exchange had a ratio of 10:1, there's no point in me having a huge surplus of ammo over fuel. Paying 100 ammo to get 10 fuel is good enough for me.

Also, just kinda noticed that Haruna squints her eyes and turns Chinese when damaged. She'll become myopic and start eating sea turtles if she keeps this up.

wtf is up with Iona in PvP? Does she have insanely increased armor or something?

With T-cross advantage, Level 99 Yuubari with four type 3 sonar can do up to 40 damage without a crit (assuming my math is correct). However, she can also get stuck with just scratch damage. The range is pretty wide thanks to the random multiplier on enemy armor.

You know, I'm so glad that LSC doesn't drop common ships constantly. My first LSC craft was with the bare minimums and I got a 1h timer and I almost completely regretted I even tried LSC rather than farming E-2/E-3 thinking it was a Naka(this girl is traumatising to crafters).

Finally, the CL I couldn't get during the last event. Banzai to the developers that added them into LSC.

I did that, and damn I feel so sorry for that DD to be my guinea pig, especially when she looks like she is crying.

I think it's conclusive based on my testing, I tried sending 1SS + 1 DD(orange) to 4-4-A.

At the end of shelling phase, all 6 enemy ships are focus shot torpedo to my lvl 1 DD and she always survived with 1 HP.

Therefore, I truly believe advancing node with orange health is fine. But probably (or definitely?) not with orange fatigue.

LSC is truly dangerous bait for low-level admirals. I lost some ammo and bauxite as well as my emergency steel and fuel for goddamn Ise. Can't blame anyone but myself, I couldn't resist the temptation. Now I must be careful not to waste too much fuel, I want to clear this event.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11747060
Considering a 10% craft rate, on average case, one would have to spend 10000-20000 per resource to get her. And you're more likely to hear reports of 1 successful craft than 10 unsuccessful ones. I'd say it's about even, if not a little worse. Though the fact it's not a limited time thing makes it better.

a duck move? how so? people who managed to keep the clearly labeled so temporary ships by trying to outsmart the system are clearly trying to exploit a glitch in the system which is against the TOS. In a TOS violation, completely deliberate, like that, account termination is fully justified and normal.

Even if they don't terminate your account entirely, it will leak out that some kept their ships somehow, if it even works, and then dmm will do another maintenance to scan all existing accounts for fog ship remains and probably replace them with a common ship as punishment. The ships have an unique ID so this can even be done with a script and automatically.

TL;DR: you will not get to keep yoiur fog ships.

You don't actually need to use Takao or Haruna to beat the event...

[Anonymous No.]

>>11747279
wrong.
If your expedition only contains fog ships, the expedition returns as normal, with your fleet locked as empty and then the expedition returns no ships as no were inside and thus the expedition failed. expedition ships are still in your general inventory which means they won't escape an automated script that reads through 1-180 IDs and deletes all ships that have the fog ID.

the one who scrapped everything but fog ships either needs to build more ships or, if he has no dev kits, hard-locked his account. It is possible that devs thought of this and simply give you 1 dev kit in the case of there being 0 ships after deletion of the fog ships and the devkit value being 0

OK, I thought this event was supposed to be easy, so I came back to the game just to do it.

What the fuck, I'm only on E-2 and this is worse than 3-4 hell, and I'm losing resources faster than the last event. If I even make it to the boss fight I get to watch my BBs ping Kirishima for single-digit damage, and forget about even damaging Haruharu. My only kill required KTKM to sink Kirishima in the torpedo phase, then I had to go to night combat with Zuihou and Zuikaku in the red and Mutsu in the orange, and get a cut-in from Takao to one-shot Haruharu.

Its not, 3-4 is still harder than E2.
Its just annoying because the laser and/or getting T-crossed can fuck you over and send you to red.
The trick is to survive the day battle and take them to night battle.
Same thing for E3

[Anonymous No.]

>>11747948
Why are you using anything but subs on E2?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11747982
because there are setups marginally more expensive but -way- more reliable for S ranks at the boss
3 CLT 3 SS
the only thing that can possibly fuck you is going N and the BBs surviving torpedos (or t cross adv) and hammering your CLT to red ( orange is fine )

[Anonymous No.]

>>11747958
The only way it's even working at all is because I don't really care if I lose ships at this point; just got a second kill when I went to night combat with Takao and Hiryuu in the red, Nagato and KTKM in the orange; Haruna got a cut-in to take out Haruharu before she fired.

>>11747960
After my first couple runs I dropped one carrier for an extra torpedo ship (initially Iona, but replaced her with Ooi when she kept missing nearly every attack)

>>11747966
Pretty easily, actually it's almost worse because 3-4 usually resulted in one or two critted ships, this is resulting in 3 or 4 critted ships every time I reach the boss.

>>11747982
Yeah, I tried that twice. Even if I don't get green T and raped in the earlier nodes, I can't do anything in the boss fight since only Iona can do shit for damage. And I never used subs much at all so all of mine are low level.

If the level 99s are at the top, it would be pretty since one anti-sub specialist could easily take out the subs during the day with CLTs.

Then you can just go to night battle and annihilate the battleships with cheap ships.

If the subs were at the top, no one would bother fighting that fleet, so wasted effort anyway.

I usually S rank every node with very little damage. 1 retreat out of.. 17 runs so far? 16 S ranks at the boss.

you could probably replace Iona with another sub but she is a really great backup to have and even if she gets hit reairs are quick and she never takes more than scratch damage

[Anonymous No.]

>>11748026
These people are the worst. It is the duty of every admiral to place two of their highest-leveled ships on idle fleets for the convenience of his fellow man.

I hope the developers eventually include items or ships that allow you to support other admirals. Like say, an item like Akitsumaru's boat that, instead of a boost to expedition rewards, grants bonus experience for both your own fleet and admirals that fight you in PvP.

for equip: type A on the CLTs last slow. first slow is a 12.7 green gun to counter the CVL and CV, it helps despite their mediocre stat
Kitakami gets a yellow 15.5 or red 20.3 in second slow, so does Ooi. Kiso gets a radar of any kind in her second slot. you wont need her double attack ( 2 CLTs and 2 subs would fire before her ) and Iona comes after and has a very high cut-in ratio in case something really does survive. the radar helps a bit with ammo loss. you get 100% firepower at the boss on the NE route instead of 80% if you have it.
all subs remodeled, maxed and 2 torpedos

What if there was a more social aspect to this game?
For example, a low level admiral gets you as his gold challenge and still fails to wipe out your two high leveled ships. You visit his shipyard and see all he has is common destroyers, so you gift him a spare Shimakaze.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11748023
Just from memory? Twice, in dozens of E-2 runs. About a third of the time I get a perfect S there, because my subs take out everything that can shoot before shelling, and the rest of the time they MIGHT get a sub to orange. It takes two good shots on a single sub to force me to retreat.

The BB more often than not get killed. even if they're not killed they need t cross adv or a maximum damage roll to not do scratch damage or just miss entirely. Maya COULD laser you if she survives the torpedo strike but she doesnt do it that often and she only gets one attack because no BB is present. Out of 16 runs, maya died before she could fire 4 times and used laser 1 time. BB hit me 6 times and out of that reduced me to orange 1 time. The non-elite BB has never done any damage except scratch damage and if the elite at least gets moderate damage from torpedos it will not do more than scratch even with t cross adv.

Maybe, but I prefer it because it saves buckets/resources. Kitakami and Ooi had a tendency to get lasered to red (at the same time, even), so I gave up on them.
I don't think it's less reliable, even. More than 90% of the time I reach the boss, and when I do, I get S around 75% of the time. I haven't gotten the ships I want, but I already got multiple copies of Shoukaku and Zuihou, so I'll get there eventually.

scaled to average HQ level of the server. at average HQ of 80, it has 100% of its stats. every 10 HQ levels less it gets a 10% nerf. so at average level of 20 HQ it would have 40%. conversely, above average 80 it gets 10% boost for each 10 levels up to 100 average where it caps at 120% stats.

I'm thinking, what if you can have friend list which will give support fleet? Of course, that's coming along with much worse boss fight. For example, the boss can have their own emergency goddess, so if you think you're done with her, surprise, she's back.

Come to think of it, IIRC there are Pearl Harbour victims that were re-floated and brought back to Midway, right?

The sad thing is that Kitakami and Kiso are at levels 98 and 96, so they will soon become experience sinks with no Ooi to replace them.

Kiso being a CLT is complete paper design territory anyway, they should go ahead and allow Kuma and Tama to become CLTs as well.

if your subs get hit its not worth bucketing them so you wait 10-90 minutes depending on level and damage. CLTs at orange take sufficiently long to justify a bucket. you will have time to stock up buckets after the event and pretty much all year but the event is only until the 8th

The real problem here is that they always go straight for Imuya and they drop her to orange/red in the first shot and that forces me to go back.

Maybe I should remodel I-401 first but I doubt that will affect compass fuckery and RNG hijinks.

4-4 with subs only will result in infinite frustration and hate. The formation I used to reliably clear it was Mutsu, Kitakami, Ooi ( replace Ooi with Kiso if you have Kiso as CLT ), Maya, Shimakaze ( use Poi Kai 2, Shigure Kai 2 or Hibiki Kai 2 if you have any of them ) Yukikaze ( see Shimakaze. optimally is Bep + Shigure Kai 2 )
and pray the gold BB / CV either eat an opening torpedo or miss you.
you can replace Maya with Tsunkao from the event and Kongou with Haruna but that will be VERY expensive both in supply and repair.
Setup everyone for double attack except give Bep as much ASW as you can if you have Bep and good ASW equip. three type3 sonars should work, otherwise use the best stuff you have. Bep in last slot.
go line ahead on the first node, line abreast secoind, then either line ahead or diamond depending on your AA stat ( low, no 46cm, no shigure maxed out, and you need diamond. high AA and you can go line ahead or just gamble and go line ahead regardless )

boss node is a mixed horse. first three tries, line ahead. for S ranking the last one you'll need double line or even diamond and possibly night battle ( flag sub is just FFFFF ) and Bep + 3 type 3 sonars for sure.

its late for me so i probably forgot suff but you should be able to figure out the rest easy

I did it with Battleship, CLT, Heavy Cruiser, Iona, and two destroyers for first three runs. And then subbed out the CLT for another Battleship for the last run.

You need a heavy cruiser and 2 destroyers to take the shortcut to the boss, which gives you a 50% shot of reaching the boss. Not sure how subs do to be honest.

Use line abreast. You don't need any firepower during the day on 5-3 anyway, since you should have a night combat fleet. If you kill the sub during the day, you should easily clean up during night combat. You don't even need any BB or CA for 5-3, if you have enough CL/DD.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11748474
Back when I cleared 4-4 months ago I went with Maya and two DDs to lower the boss gauge, but then I went 2 CV + 4 BB and fought the compass in order to get the final kill. Bringing CA and 2 DD lowered my damage output too much to actually finish off the upgraded boss. With the stuff we have access to now it'll probably be easier though.

The annoying thing is the node before the boss if it gives you two yellow CVs, which can easily wreck your DDs, and you don't have enough space left to bring CVs loaded with fighters to stop them.

Taihou looks great, but Shibafu's art is great in it's own way.

Just look at i-401. She looks like a normal girl you could actually find in some rural town. Makes good fuel for the imagination.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11748702
In Kancolle case he's kind of like the lead artist for it. You should expect ships that are drawn by him, And Shibafu is actually good, its just his style does not appeal to you.

Its only one sub out of 6. In the future expect to get more by your favorite artist and Shibafu, then everyone can be happy.

I'm gonna happily roll with my plain wolfpack if Shibafu going to design all the I-400 class..

I don't like her tan and I don't really like shibafu's art style.
Not going to say her voice is bad but I like the other subs lines and voices a lot more than her.

I was expecting something special, like a sub that looks like Iona or another cute sub but then we get this I-401 who is pretty plain in the sense of that she really does look like a random girl from a rural town or village. She feels incredibly out of place with the other subs and just incredibly disappointing.

Now I just want to bury the whole thing in the past and get the next sub by a different artist or the current sub artist.

The only thing that made I-401 special is that she carries Seiran. The I-15
class have more impressive track records.

Personally I treat Arpeggio and Kancolle as two separate entity and try not to compare those two together. I still enjoy both of them.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11748756
Its pretty hard to keep both I-401's separate when you can get both from the same event and her event is a collaboration with Arpeggio.

They should have asked the person that did the Arpeggio designs to design a I-401 for kancolle, that would have been pretty nice.

His art has a more realistic feel to them rather than your rainbow-coloured hair and eyes and sex appeal.
I think it's a pretty good change of pace but I-401's design is horrible, they should've used other artists.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11748766
It would be good if the Arpeggio designed it but you just have to live with it, I think he actually did a fanart of mecha musume Iona which I kinda like. Just hope your favorite artist will draw a submarine that you will like.

And personally I feel it is better this way that the dev are not trying to live under the shadow that is Arpeggio by trying to stick to something similar to the series.

>>11748772
What's the difference? The series started with I-15 hence the I-15 class.

>>11748782
Because he's actually good? I don't want to post them here due to image limitations. How about you visit his pixiv and see it for yourself?

And /ic/ will criticize anime art style regardless good or not.

Where do you think you are?

The problem is his art style, not that he sticks to normal colors instead of "Rainbow colored hair" and "Sex appeal".

You can use normal colors like brown hair and a uniform to get a cute girl like shiratsuyu for example.

And it feels pretty stupid to complain about sex appeal when this is a game where the girls lose their clothes when damaged.

[Anonymous No.]

They didn't have to get the arpeggio designer, there were just a lot of other better options. A Shibafu sub just feels completely out place with the other subs, even more with the incredibly plain design he gave her.

Like I have wrote before he's pretty much the lead artist for Kancolle, the title page with all the girls is enough to tell you that he designed at least one girls for each class. While I understand you grievances, complaining won't change it.

Again just live with it, sooner and later you'll get a sub that you will surely love.

>>11748850
You could tell that to the majority of Kancolle artist. Go take one of your favorite artist from Kancolle and post it in /ic/. You'll get no different response from what you are doing right now.

My problem with him is that it feels incredibly out of place with the other subs and does not fit at all. They should have at least got a different artist with a similar style so it fits more and looks better with the other subs.

But yeah, I really hope that we can get off the shibafu ship and that the midway subs get better designs.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11748873
But plenty of ships from the same class look nothing alike. Even some ships from the same family are unrecognizably different. I don't see people complaining that Musashi looks nothing like Yamato or many of the other battleships. 401's a little girl with a school swimsuit. That's all that matters to make her a sub and the sample size is too small to say that something clearly doesn't fit a pattern.

the glaring issue isn't the fact they don't look alike in term of design, but their ART STYLE.

Musashi looks way wilder, but you can see that it is the same artist due to the coloring and design style.

If anything, the other artist should follow his art style. Since his style is the most prominent in the franchise.

And I-400 is a different class. If anything he won't be touching the I-15 class. You'll have your Shobon's wolfpack while I'll roll with Shibafu's wolfpack.

And I really hope people don't see me as some sort of Shibafu hardcore fans. I like his art but my personal favorite is Konishi and Fumikane.

It's not like all ships of a certain type should look the same.

I would have liked a shobon sub too, but now that's just being curious about how he would have done her.
I think a change of style does fit the fact that the i400 aren't just like any subs in terms of planning and specs.

They still dont look terribly out of place, a lot of ships look different from other ships of their own class but the art style difference is not that huge.

1 or 2 high level ships is an act of kindness to allow other admirals to level up their lower level ships quickly.

If you meet 1 lvl20~30 and 2x lvl1s, it's because they're running 1-1 sparkle runs for their expedition fleet.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11749283
Low level ships are for easy sparkles. High level ships are for high experience. Usually, I'd just leave and idle high level BB for high experience plus easy sparkles for someone looking to sparkle a fleet to clear a map and for high experience. Two birds with one stone.

There's this one guy on Truk that kept leaving 4 subs (no Iona though) and I have no idea whether it's for exp and sparkle or just because he thought subs would be hard to kill but seeing as subs are quite easy to kill now on PVP, well I really don't know but for my fleet it's an easy exp and sparkle.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11749291
Leave only 1 or 2 high level ships, the other 4 slots do not affect experience gained. Leaving less in your fleet also means that even lower level ships can dogpile your high level ship emerge victorious easily without going to night battle. Doesn't necessarily have to be a DD, any class will do as long as they're high level.

2-3 fuel runs, I do it all the time as well not that this LSC is taking a huge toll on resources.

Not that guy, but one thing I would add:

For first three boss kills, you don't need anti-sub destroyer. Just equip two 10mm green guns so that she can double attack at night.

You can evade torpedos/destroy the sub just fine at that one sub node with anti-sub formation.

The reason he suggest Bep is because the boss changes after the 3rd kill and an elite submarine spawns with the boss. This means that your CLTs and destroyers will be firing at the sub instead of double attacking the boss to oblivion.

For anyone who cares, I threw together a quick comparison of I-19 and U-124.
Japanese submarines were bigger and faster than their German counterparts, which means that U-boats would have less health, armor and evasion.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11749512
I'm not too familiar with this but I'm under the impression that U-boats crew are probably more experienced. So maybe better accuracy and evasion?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11749520
Definitely better resource consumption, since the U-124 has almost twice the range of the I-19.
So pretty much Maruyu-tier resource consumption in a submarine that probably has ingame stats similar to, or slightly inferior, to I-168. But still a usable sub that will sink enemy ships and dish out decent torpedo damage.

>>11749520
>>11749533

What? I-19 has slightly longer range even at a significantly higher speed. I don't think range has to do with the rate of consumption though.

Combined Fleet has this to say about subs:

>Compared to German submarines, Japan's huge boats were relatively easy to sight visually and with radar, slow to dive, hard to maneuver underwater, easy to track on sonar, and easy to hit. Japanese hulls were also not as strong as those of German boats, and therefore could not dive as deeply nor survive such rough treatment.

So probably better resource consumption, maybe more armor or evasion but not hitpoints, and less firepower/torpedo power.

I'd say if you're having no luck with E-2 right now, you should stop, at least for a while. From what I remember, resources were pretty scarce in the early levels. Do 30all crafting to complete the daily quests and save as much as possible. Get some levels on your useful ships and hope for the best near the end of the event.

Out of curiosity, what do the nodes look like for you? I heard rumors about different fleets for admirals of different HQ level.

Ah, that makes more sense. I tend to default to Isuzu if I need a dedicated sub killer, and only change it up if I want to level a specific CL or DD.

CLs in 5-3 is a bad idea. There is a troll sub in the boss node, and you need to kill the flagship to bring the boss meter down. CLs will focus the sub, wasting shots. You need to bring 2 DD to guarantee the boss node from the pre-boss node, so unless you are braving the compass, that'll be 3+ ships doing nothing at the boss. Also, CLs are inferior to CAs in night battle because of their armor and HP. They also lack a fourth slot, which can be handy if you have good radar. Finally, CAs ignore the sub. Thus, 5-3 fleets tend to be CA heavy.

the first 3 forms have the elite sub, the last form as a flagship sub, big big difference because of HP and defense.

Now that the event is on though, I'm using 3ca 2dd iona. It's fucking glorious. Iona tanks the damage from the CL/DD, and is guaranteed to kill anything she hits at night. She will also kill garbage during the day in the boss node.

I didn't use Haruna or Takao because of their cost. They're stupid fucking expensive to use, and cost a fortune to repair. Takao's laser might offset that cost though. Haruna sure won't. And can you even laser at night? If not, they'll only shine in the boss node.

bep and poi are good choices. Yukikaze is also a god at night if you want to use her.

Iona is a must. She will take only chip damage at worst, and is a guaranteed damage dealer.

CLT is squishy. I tried it a couple times and didn't like it. CAs can survive cutins and double attack sometimes, so I prefer them.

Found this on the wiki,
>Once you level them up a bit you can take them to 2-3 and leave the stage as soon as you hit a fuel node. Easy fuel.

So, from which level they will leave the stage? I'm currently on fuel shortage so I thought this was the easiest way to obtain more fuels.

Anecdotal evidence suggests it's fine. But running subs in 2-3 is super safe anyways. You can easily kill all the ASW ships in the supply ship node, for instance.

Don't bother leaving the map or F5ing for fuel runs, just end the map because it helps in completing your dailies easily.

Even if you completed your dailies/weeklies, it helps that your sub doesn't run out of fatigue extremely easily

That's a very interesting way of looking at it, I like your way more than mine.

Maikaze is so common in E-2, I wish I just had my Nagato already. Also Hatsukaze not being in the drop list kind of disturbs me

[Anonymous No.]

>>11750197
I wish I could get the -gumo DDs, they've been my target since the Day 1. I'm pretty lucky with the event actually, first 2 days added 5 ships to my shipdex - Nagato, Mutsu, Zuihou, Mikuma, and Naganami. And now Kumano.

Just missing the -gumos, cranes, and Abukuma now.

Maikaze is a common drop in E-2? I might farm E-2 then, since I am in desperate need of ASW equipment and dev materials are now extremely valuable.

No shit, captain. Backgrounds don't always determine a ship's rarity, Akagi for example.

Oh yeah right. I confused her with Makigumo. Is she also a common drop in E-2?

Holy crap, did they nerf enemy subs hard? I just went to 5-1 to do some DD/CL leveling for fun, and my DDs with 2 type 94 are dealing 35 damage to that cursed golden sub. Damages even hit 70+ easily for elite/normal ones.

Did you get a T-crossed?

About as much as a 2-3 fuel run, and Bauxite is much harder to get than fuel.

[Anonymous No.]

The 2-2 run is probably your cheapest bet, just go with CLTs and some other cheap strong ships(like Poi) or full strong preempts since enemy has shit AA.

Okay, now I just got her at E-3 first node, can't believe it, time to craft 10 more at LSC.

good luck to everyone else still trying.

I do this before the event as well and even with T-cross my ships never damaged this much before.

So here's something new the devs did. For the second PvP daily where you had to WIN 5 matches, you had to get them all in the second batch of opponents in a day as the previous batch didn't count.

Now the 3 wins you did for PvP Daily #1 (assuming you won them) all count for PvP Daily #2 before the quest is even available. It just spawned at 80% complete for me (I just won 4 in a row before completing quest).

[Anonymous No.]

>>11750586
how does one farm mikuma effectively ? I got tons of kinugasa but that's a bit too much level there.

As for sonars, I just put an extra 10 bauxite on every necessary daily craft and got a fair amount of it, so I don't use the little girls. Not for that at least.

That's most likely a bug, it's been this way for some quest and for some time, the counters probably overlaps.

It was?

The most I ever got sent to was orange due to carnival dayo. I had to turn back only because of scratch damage on my orange ships bringing them to red. It was the normal attacks from all ships in general that screwed me over far more than carnival dayo ever did.

Of course, I had to send all 3 fog-chans together to pull this off (was hit to red all the time when I only had Iona, but I either had other red ships as well so I'd have had to turn back either way, or it was that she hit an orange or yellow ship to red), but it's easy enough to pull off.

You can use whomever you like for non-event maps, since you can take as much time as you please for their clears. The best grinding map is in fact unlocked quite early on, so you won't be missing out much even if you don't branch into World 5 right away. Event maps, however, require massive amounts of resources and come with a time limit, so they are better tackled with the top-of-the-line ships to minimize your risk of failure.

If you aren't interested in clearing higher-difficulty event maps, then there isn't much of a difference within each ship type, so you can use whomever you want. Besides, there's nothing stopping you from raising elite ships alongside your favorites.

>I see CLTs being very popular and Battleships not as much.
Not quite. Ship types (BB, CV, CVL etc.) shouldn't be compared to each other because some of them do vastly different things, and you will need to raise a couple of ships from each. By "top-of-the-line" I mean the best ships/classes from each type. Generally speaking, these include all CLTs, Nagato-class and Kongo-class for BBs, Kaga and Akagi for CVs, Maya for CAs, Verniy/Shigure/Yudachi/Shimakaze/Yukikaze for DDs and Isuzu/Yura for ASW duty.

You will generally use BBs, CVs and CLTs for map cleaning, CLTs, SSs and CVLs for level grinding and CAs, CLs and DDs for night battles. In addition, some maps require your fleet to have certain ship types to have a greater chance to reach the boss. The most prominent example is 3-2, which can only be cleared by destroyers.

>Is it usually just CV+CLT for event maps?
There's no telling what exactly the event maps will require, so you should again have a broad range of decently leveled ships. CVs were completely useless for the last event, for example, because that event's most difficult maps involved night battles (where CVs and CVLs cannot attack). The next big event, on the contrary, looks to be almost entirely carrier-focused.

You clearly didn't join the hopeless Yahagi farm bandwagon, unless you were lucky enough to get her I guess?

[Anonymous No.]

Just to add on to that:

CVLs are going to have much shittier stats than CVs but they are still useful since they cost a whole lot less and can still perform 80-90% of what a CV can do in most maps.

All the CVs are actually pretty good, Kaga and Akagi are great, but the Crane Sisters (Shokaku and Zuikaku) are great too and the Dragon Sisters are fine too.

For CAs, Maya is the anti air goddess, but you'll want 1 or 2 more because some maps require at least 2 CAs. Most people just go with Takao and Atago, but Tone class is fine too.

No there isn't. The chance to cut-in with Imuya or Hachi is still better than a turbine if you want S ranks.

So I accidentally clicked on the shop instead of the quest tab, and it makes me wonder.
Aside from dock keys, who the hell is stupid enough to buy stuff from the store? It's a massive rip-off, $1 for 100 measly bauxite? I can easily make that in an hour from Exp 6. $5 for 7 dev kits? I can make 7 dev kits just doing my daily quests. No wonder this game isn't profitable, whoever was in charge of the shop is a retard. Now, I'm not claiming to know a lot about Japanese culture, but if you waited until the wikis published a really high % success rate recipe for Yamato/Taiho and then put a package into the shop with the resources+dev kits to attempt a craft at it and sold it for $12-15, wouldn't that be profitable as shit?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11752139
If a B rank is enough for you because you all you want is just clear the map, turbines are better because you can win doing just 1 damage as long as you don't take any.

Ship space is another popular seller. (I should know, I bought 30 extra capacity myself)

But I get your point. The only concern about the recipe idea might be that it might be tacit endorsement of a recipe and people would be predictably angry if they get shit from the store sponsored recipe. If they just sell resources, then there's no air of culpability. (although I agree that the store is poorly run and they should probably sell more resources per yen)

Kancolle has a reputation for not being pay to win and that reputation might be undermined with incidents like that. Although I'm not sure to what degree since obviously I don't have the full facts.

Did you miss the second page of the shop? There's a crafting package that gives a bit of each resource and 2 dev kits. This is obviously targeted towards the normal crafting though because the resources are too low for LSC. They do say on the warning screen before the LSC that they don't want you to buy resources just to attempt it.

That's because if I wanted to buy the resources to try the common Taiho recipe, I'd be spending

And $15 for the 20(21) dev kits.

See >>11752145
Also if your subs are strong enough you don't need torpedoes for farming at places like, say, 2-3 because they'll oneshot everything anyway. That's where turbines come in: to reduce overall repair times of your subs by reducing damage taken from enemies so you have more room to rotate.

>>11752154
>there's no real social aspect aside from telling your friends "Dude, I just got a Shimakaze drop last night" or "I just beat the event and got I-401!"

Any tips for 4-4? I know the 1CA2DD thing, but I'm having trouble figuring out what a "good" fleet composition is. I figure 1BB is a given for the second shelling phase, but I'm not sure if I'd be better off with 2CV or 2CLT for the preemptive airstrike - the CVs would help clear the nodes up to the boss better, they're more reliably useful against hardened enemies (boss, abyss CV/BBs) but they're worthless in night battles where CLTs could guarantee a murderin' on the boss.

Best I can really think of is 2CV + Line Abreast on the way to boss, relying on preemptive airstrike to clear out a bit of shit since it's not reduced by my formation, and then just Line Ahead full zerg rush on boss when I get there?

AA guns or sanshiki are a given on BB/CA/DD so I'm not too tremendously worried about Wo bullshit, more the flagship battleships along the way, as well as the obvious of airport bitch.

Nonsense. We have people sitting on 300k resources and a thousand development kits, and LSC is a way to allow them to put their massive resource bloats to use. If you're not ready to tango with these folk, then you ought to stop whining.

Besides, LSC actually very cheap if you consider that you have a high chance to get event prizes. Events can easily take much more resources than half a dozen LSC attempts, come with the risk of sinking ships, and are mentally taxing. Given the rewards, I am surprised that LSC isn't twice as expensive.

I lost TAKAO so I had to replace it with another heavy hitter.
I tried using a regular CA instead but she gets to red on Kongou before night battle, so I swapped BB so she can still tank those hits and participate in night battle.
Besides, yours is too resource heavy.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11752595
Calm yourselves. I blame those 4 laser in a row that TAKAO ate. Besides she can't tank or even dodge shit. At least Kirishima and Kongou can dodge and even tank Maya and KONGOU's lasers. Better than getting TAKAO to red and retreating almost everytime and spending nearly the amount of resources my BBs would've taken if my 2 BBs would've gotten to red.
But oh well I don't care anymore I already cleared the event so it's all up to personal choice.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11752602
Actually HaruHaru is the useless one. If you want to see lasers just use Takao, cheaper and much more useful during night battle, which you will probably go to if you want to kill everything.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11752609
TAKAO is useless for me. HaruHaru at least fired her laser more times than my TAKAO ever did. Plus even in night battle, she already proved herself though only once since it's always Kitakami or Kongou who are on the first two slots who kept one-shotting KONGOU.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11752602
>>11752609
>>11752615
Using only one and not the other is what's useless. I used both and had no problem with them, or having to repair them at all. Only once was TAKAO hit to orange (none of my fogs were hit to red), and only one other time did a fog ship repair exceed one hour. (Left Iona out because everyone should know to at least use her regardless.)

Use both. The fuel and ammo cost from resupply may be expensive, but the fuel and steel you save from repairing make up for it.

And retreat when a ship turns red dammit. This last message is for those who don't.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11752629
I went to orange and that's how TAKAO sunk. 4 lasers from Kiri/HaruHaru, all of them hit TAKAO whilst my other ship dodged or just got scratch damage. Talk about useless. And of the 2 lasers my TAKAO fired, none hit. Iona was at least damn useful on E-2 to E-3. Even when damaged, I kept using her and she only went to orange only once for the duration of the event. Plus her torpedo strikes are powerful enough to clear out the scrubs, though she once did a cut-in to Kongou and one-shotted her. So yeah, had to resort to use HaruHaru and Iona plus a filler for TAKAO which was a BB in addition to the other 2 CLTs and BBs.

Screenshots or it didn't happen.

I made Haruharu my flag and stuck an emergency repair on TAKAO just in case. Maybe it kept the crits away.

Strangely, I never managed to get Iona to orange. How people managed to sink her, let alone get her to red or orange HP, is beyond me.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11752650
He was talking about Takao. Iona is a sub with battleship-tier armor and HP, it's not surprising that nothing can damage her significantly.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11752650
I wasn't able to. Too shocked from what transpired.
From then on I stuck damecons since even Fog ships can't stand repeated lasers, at least for TAKAO's case. HaruHaru was only critted once for the duration of E-3, most were just scratch damage I didn't bother to repair them until it went to orange or red. Same goes for Iona, only repaired her once when her hp is dangerously close to orange. Sometimes, my BBs would be critted but at least the combined cost is nearly equivalent to TAKAO so it's fine. It was 8 tries before I managed to clear E-3. 1 failure for KTKM going to red from a torpedo of a Wo class, another for my CLTs and BBs doing scratch damage due to ammo shortage (went NE instead of E) and Iona not getting a cut-in at night battle, and lastly, me resetting when I went again at NE.

You should learn to repair all ships after every event sortie. Event maps are generally harder than non-event maps so this extra precaution is important. Not to mention the fog ships repair quite fast due to being low level.

Also, I kept my fog-chans perpetually sparkled. Helped by the fact that they kept taking turns getting MVP in the event maps.

>>11752664
I know. The Iona part was just a side note.

I think I've seen this exact thing posted in a previous orange-red display error argument (which is what I believe the anon that you've quoted is mentioning). What you're saying has nothing to do with the error, you're merely stating the conditions for red and orange.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11752675
Could be, I don't know. I was doing other things like doing my daily kanjis when I was doing the event.
>>11752683
It did save a lot of resources for me. I even didn't repair some of my BBs if they got scratch damage. Nothing bad really happened when I did that, except a crit would bring their hp to orange which usually happens to pre-boss. Even if they're at full-hp, an unlucky crit would usually bring them down to orange or yellow so if they have scratch damage say 8 or 10 then it's okay. That's one repair bill less for me.

[Anonymous No.]

I can feel your pain though, I couldn't get past E-2 for 2 days until I bit the bullet and paid Iona's resource fees to gamble on sub runs.

Of course if only it applies for everything, crafting, LSC and map/event drops.

it would take you less time to get the ships you want than it would to get all those ships you don't want to 99.

I'm in for the long run.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753242
I've got plenty of Ises and Hyuugas at E3 too. Normal node Ise, boss node Ise in one run.

Where can I apply for the LSC club?
Spent all my remaining resources, got Hiyou, Maruyu and Akitsumaru, though I only tried it 3 times.
Am I already in? I still feel lucky for getting a boat at least.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753283
You tried it only 3 times. Try at least 10 times before applying again.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753263
Did you used LSC?
Please think about the every recipe and drops of them.

Say you have Junyou, Hiyou, Akagi, Kaga, Zuikaku at level 99.
Is it stupid?
Hell no, carriers are OP.
And what happens after you have them?
You increase your chance of getting something useful from LSC.

Of course, you don't grind specifically for them. You just let them tag along until 80's.

Don't tell me you actually think there's a map that guarantees you to fight transport ships?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753399
E-1 guarantees one or two with subs.

LSC isnt that bad guy.
You can do 1/day for your daily.
6/4/6/3 or 5/2/4/7 wont bring you to deficit.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753416
I am doing 6/4/6/3 daily. I am done with Taihou recipe.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753421
Well, 6/4/6/3 every day, maybe, but you need 2 days for 7k bauxite.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753421
Where are you getting 3k a day? Expedition 6 the whole day?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753410

6/4/6/3 is for Yamato? With a single dev material?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753444
Ex6, Ex15 sparkled and natural regen.
I have been doing 1LSC/day since the implementation. This is my current resources including grinding my level at 4-2, farming E3 for drops and other stuff.

Taihou owners can go die in a fire.

>>11753463
Are you doing E-3 with subs?
I spent like 30-40k of everything except bauxite to get all the rares, then all my bauxite on LSC, couldn't keep all my resources high.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753476
I only cleared E2 with subs.
E3 I went with 1bb, 1cv, 3clt, 1ss. I was only hunting for Naganami and 1extra Iku. I dont remember how many runs I think, probably only 40 or 50 so. CLT is cheap to repair anyway and most of the time they are one that you have to bucket.

October babby

[Anonymous No.]

>>11753485
Okay, I had exactly the same composition and all my CVs and BBs are waiting for docks in red so I'm in -2000 steel at least, maybe I did too much runs (2 Naganami, 2 Iku, Mikuma, Mutsu here).
With only 40-50 runs it is understandable then.

Sortie 1-1 for sparkles until you're satisfied.
