KanColle Arcade's first event started on Oct 27 and ended on Nov 25. Anchorage Hime was the main boss and Shoukaku and Zuikaku were rewards, with Shouhou and Zuihou also being implemented.

The KanColle movie was released on 2016 November 26. Movie trailers:

Debuffs exist for the E3 boss, for the E5 map, and for the E5 boss. Debuffing the E5 map will open a new starting point closer to the boss. Debuffing the bosses lowers their armour, making them easier to kill. How to debuff (current speculation):
-To debuff the E3 boss: acquire in E2 AS+ and no damage taken to land bases while defending against an air raid four times, and perfect S at air raid nodes A, G, K and L once each, and in E3 acquire S ranks at nodes C, D, H and J once each, and A rank at node K once.
-To debuff the E5 map: acquire in E5 S ranks at node A thrice for Kou (hard)/twice for Otsu (medium)/once for Hei (easy) modes, and at nodes B, C, D, G and H once each, and AS+ and no damage taken to land bases while defending against an air raid twice.
-To debuff the E5 boss in Kou (hard) mode: acquire in E5 S ranks at node P twice and at nodes K, M, N, O and U once each, AS+ and no damage taken to land bases while defending against an air raid four times (not counting the two times that go towards debuffing the map), and sink 10 enemy transport ships total in nodes A and F. Hei (easy) mode is known to have lighter requirements.

If you hear the quest completion jingle when you return to base after a sortie, it means the debuff is successful. You only get to hear it once per successful debuff. While the E3 and E5 boss debuffs are active, the bosses will have different sprites and voice lines on encounter.
WARNING: Debuffs will reset if switching to Kou (hard) mode from other difficulty modes. Debuffs will not reset otherwise.

News:
-The Autumn 2016 Event has started. It consists of 3 standard operations and 2 extra operations, for a total of 5 maps. The event will end on December 7.
-The ships implemented for this event are drops Yamakaze (E2, E3) and Asakaze (E4, E5), E3 reward Commandant Teste, and E5 reward Saratoga.
-Late Autumn voice lines (including Wine of Autumn voice lines) have been implemented. The other autumn voice lines have been removed.
-"That type" of aircraft and a new system will finally be introduced in autumn or later.
-The next Kai 2 will be for a CA.

Why are drops so bad? Why does everyone roll over and take it? Why can't we build over half the useless ships in this game, let alone the good ones? It's fucking frustrating and I get the feeling Kadokawa doesn't give a shit what happens to this terrible game. Legit complaints get met with elitism, passiveness and ignorance by both devs and fans.

>debuffs still not updated
Use this next time.

Debuffs exist for the E3 boss, for the E5 map, and for the E5 boss. Debuffing the E5 map will open a new starting point closer to the boss. Debuffing the bosses lowers their armour, making them easier to kill. How to debuff (current speculation):
-To debuff the E3 boss: acquire in E2 a perfect air defence against the two air raids twice each, and perfect S at air raid nodes A, G, K and L once each, and in E3 acquire S ranks at nodes C, D, H and J once each, and A rank at node K once.
-To debuff the E5 map: acquire in E5 S ranks at node A thrice for Kou (hard)/twice for Otsu (medium)/once for Hei (easy) modes, and at nodes C, G and H once each, and a perfect air defence against each of the two air raids once each.
-To debuff the E5 boss: acquire in E5 S ranks at node P twice and at nodes K, M, N, O and U once each, a perfect air defence against an air raid four more times, and sink 10 enemy transport ships total in nodes A and F.
-For Hei (easy) mode, land bases taking 0 damage (including misses) is sufficient to count as perfect air defence. For other difficulty levels, all enemy planes need to be shot down to count as perfect air defence, which can be achieved with AS+ or (sometimes) AS.

For the E5 map debuff, a cutscene will play revealing the second starting point.
For the boss debuffs, if you hear the quest completion jingle when you return to base after a sortie, it means the debuff is successful. You only get to hear it once per successful debuff. While the E3 and E5 boss debuffs are active, the bosses will have different sprites and voice lines on encounter.
WARNING: For E5, debuffs will reset if switching difficulties, unless if switching from Otsu (medium) to Hei (easy) or vice versa.

I just don't see why drop rates have to be so low. you have to farm these bullshit nodes on maps that only exist for a few weeks a year and get a 1% or less chance of getting the ship you want.

>>16174567
>Why are drops so bad?
Are you serious? Kancolle has amazing drop rates. Have you ever played any other asian game ever? Some of them have drop rates like 1 in 100000 or even worse. Especially korean games.
Stuff like 1-5% is normally reserved for common drops.

I'm running a full sub fleet for E-4 hard HP chipping (as suggested in the previous thread), and it's pretty comfy. You only need to run Boss support, and the only threat are the two DD's in S node, of which one dies to opening torps at the very least.

Shioi & one other sub are gimped, though, since they have to carry seaplanes for LOS.

Opening TCI by Ro, Goya brought her down later to 21 hp.
>>
>>16175107
Are you using v2.5.0? Came out just 3 days ago.
>>
>>16175118
Forgot to mention they're all Lvl 99; the hard part is waiting for morale to go back up, since a D rank is unavoidable at the sub node & the S ranks at the air raid node only partially offset this.

Cheap on buckets, too.

>>16175118
Dude. You are doing pre final. It is going to be just as easy with a normal fleet. Don't waste your time with a sub fleet unless you have tons of time to kill.
You see those shitty 84HP carriers? They suddenly become super wo kai with 160HP and it isn't the only thing change. The 2 harmless air raid nodes suddenly carry better planes and do more damage as well.

That's the point--I don't have to waste time sparkling route support. I'm saving that and the rest of the heartache for final.

As it is, my light fleet only gets to the boss 1/3 of the time, and that's a lot of route support sparkle that gets wasted. At least with this sub fleet, I only have to sparkle Warspite for boss support.

That's bullshit though. It's much easier than last dance obviously, but unless you can reach the boss near 100% of the time with a normal fleet it's not "just as easy". With 4 Ru I certainly can't make it there as easily.

Just manage your girls better. I used only 56 shiplocks in this event and I could easily cut it by 10, if I didn't rush/experimented with some of them. That's far from even half of all my kanmusus.

I don't want to argue, because I don't like to Orel when I don't need it, but usually I'm fine with using only 7 subs.

There were a lot of little optimisations I missed out on:

1. I had another 35.6cm Prototype Triple that I could've equipped on Kirishima, but I was only intending to give this set-up several trial runs to see how it went (it was surprisingly successful up until this point). TFW no Iowa.

2. I had a (1*) T0 Observation Seaplane that, again, could have been equipped on either FBB.

3. I forgot about the Night Scout Seaplane because I'm an imbecile, although having T0 Obs. might've helped to trigger more cut-ins during the day battles.

4. Murata and Tomonaga squadrons should've switched slots between Akagi and Chitose due to better slot size for +1 torpedo power (Murata).

Other miscellaneous bullshit:

-This set-up only just barely gets you AS at the boss node, assuming that you don't lose too many fighters and bombers at the air battle and Wo-Kai nodes. I started out with about 568 fighter power, and ended up at the boss with around 522 fighter power (if I recall correctly), just 4 points above the required amount (518?) for AS.

-Tsus may or may not nuke your slots. I only ever lost 1 rank or so on my bombers, but your mileage may vary.

-Chitose originally had another Reppuu equipped, but I swapped that out for a Saiun after getting ruined by a Red T at the boss.

-This is still pretty risky, since your CV(L)s are effectively useless during the shelling phase if they hit chuuha / the orange. Armoured CVs are a better choice, but I already had Akagi/Kaga locked into E-4, and didn't want to risk locking even more carriers to E-4 only to fail miserably.

-Chitose and Kaga had damecons too, although I never actually used them (I forgot about them most of the time, and they were only really there in case of sudden taiha at the pre-boss air battle node).

-More importantly, you only have 3 ships capable of night battles, none of which are particularly optimised for NB calculations.

-That said, I still think that a proper AACI ship is critical to your fleet's survival all the way to the boss node. That means either an Akizuki-class DD, or Maya. The air battle nodes and opening air strikes on certain nodes are problematic without either of them. You could get away with a less effective set-up on another ship, but as always, your mileage may vary. (Said the guy who attempted AACI on Yamato with Maya equipment.)

-Additionally, 2 FBBs is about enough to cut a swathe through most of the nodes during day battles, and your CV(L)s aren't as useless as in a fully-heavy set-up as long as their slots don't end up getting completely wiped.

-But I still can't shake the feeling that I got very lucky here. Virtually no damage taken other than scratch all the way up until the boss node, less Kirishima getting hit into the yellow at the Wo-Kai node. Perfect S at the Ru node. Akizuki cutting in during every air phase of every battle that had one, including air battle nodes. Green T at the boss, for maximum overkill. FBBs shitting all over the Wo-Kais as soon as they could. Akagi and Kaga nuking the boss at the end of the day fight for 250+ damage in total, although she was the only thing left alive for them to hit by that point and the Green T probably helped with the ridiculous critical hits.

-Not that I'm complaining.

-Obviously, everything was sparkled and both supports were used.

I ran several different set-ups before getting this lucky kill, so I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have.

Forgot to add. For what it's worth, and if anyone's considering using what I posted here:
>>16175626

Regarding support expeditions (2 DD 2 BB 2 CV):

My stronger support fleet was dedicated to the non-boss expedition, given the things you encounter en route. My relatively weaker boss support did alright during the pre-LD formation, but was pretty weak (from what I could tell) during LD, especially against the tougher ships that show up during LD (assuming they got hit). Still, one less trash DD alive is one less ship for your ships to shoot at, and little bits of damage done to Wo-Kais will add up over time, so take that as you will.

They're all really close. Proto is the best for Kongous, 38cmKai has the most accuracy on other fBBs, Brit is great mix of power and accuracy while Pasta is the best on Pastas.

Thing is, 16 inch exists and is better choice for fBBs in single fleet or Kidou.
>>
>>16176495
Unless you're swimming in them, none because >>16176505
In single fleet you're better off with 16inch/proto41cm and in Suijou you should choose 38cm Kai for accuracy or proto35.6cm for Kongous.

>>16176488

You aren't shooting down all the planes from any of those Wo so the only thing you get is better protection from their opening air strike. Meanwhile, you are gimping all your ships.

I went throught that node close to 30 times and that never happened to me. Then again, there are other reasons why you should use line ahead.

- Your ships don't trigger AACI
- You effectively make your escort useless.
- Wo high armor will reisist your BBs AP cut-in unless they are hotels.

To the people who used Nagato for E-5. What did your set up look like? I thought the nuke node would make it too much of a hassle to bother but from what I've seen she hits like a tank and I think that makes it all the worth the risk.

I didn't have Sakawa, so I just loaded the required CL with opening ASW, and one of the DDs. Made the sub node manageable.

Maya+Nagato+4CV
ASW CL+ASW DD+Akizuki-class+2CLT+Prinz

You can't make it completely harmless, you'll have 2 OASW attacks and there are 5 subs. Nuclear flag tends to survive and she's the biggest cancergiver.

Teste is probably the strongest anti-installation bote in the game right now.

4 slots plus the ability to equip Ka Mi and WG is a gamechanger. Her firepower is decent as well.

Tank + T89 deals more damage vs installations but I suppose tank + WG would be more useful when you consider Imps.

But you couldn't take carriers at all to Lycoris, you could for all of those. Carriers and air power are so important and I think Tanaka is trying to drill it into people's minds.

I don't care about clear rates but I'm pretty sure vast majority of easy shitters who cleared whole thing didn't skip E5. It just makes sense to clear it and get the Pola. Remember their main goal is getting girls.

Event won and done. About 70k in fuel spent, much less in everything else. Only 200 buckets spent and that includes bucketing for scratch or morale.

Overall, not too bad. E-4 went really smooth for me, but I know it was rough for a lot of people, so I'll just count myself lucky.

E-5 was a breeze and E-1 through E-3 not bad at all. I had a bad streak of taihas doing E-3, but outside of that, nothing that rough. None of that 30+ sorties nonsense that some TTK had to deal with.

I have all 8medals and even I think it is a waste of time to do it for a catapult. The plane is a side upgrade at best and you arent going to use the extra catapult for your shoucucku dupe. There is also no display of 2 catapult next to your name. Not worth the time when you can spend them on doing other more productive thing like ranking(the rewards > catapult) or grinding E5 for free xp.

My route support is at 56 morale, sparkled them 3x. I didn't count because I thought I was going to be here for days instead of just today, if I had to guess somewhere between 6-10 last dance runs.

Is that even possible? I don't think I've had that happen.

They tend to show every other node. I think a fully sparkled node support still has a chance to ignore consecutive nodes after the first one. I've already been screwed a few times already. I'm thinking I should stop using the node support since they just scratch the Ru anyways.

It's ok, once you get past it you'll have someone in chuuha who gets tapped for 1 damage into taiha at the next node.

It sure is a resource you dont notice being used up until you run out of it, meanwhile Zuikaku, Shoukaku, Chiyoda and Chitose use up a lot of bauxite per resupply because of all the AA in PVP

My level 92 FBB just missed both her shots on the chompy in the first node of 1-1. She was equipped with 2 Iowa guns and 2 Type 32 radars. The chompy them torped her face.

I am so done.

Probably. E4 is a double map and E5 also requires detours to debuff so it's a bit longer than what it looks like. If you have hard-level ships I'd say you could do it easily.

>>16179635
If this was an easy map I would agree with you. But the harder the map, the more focus there is on your suffering, struggling, trying to clear the map, and the more weight, the more value the last shot that ends your suffering and brings you to freedom holds. Thus, for sufficiently hard maps like this one, the ship getting the last shot is the most valuable player, or MVP.

I get that E4 hard was easy for you so you don't feel this way, but that's not the case for everyone, you know.

I just have brain capability to understand that clearing the map consists of efforts of whole fleet and not just a single lucky tap/snipe. And it is especially more important on hard maps because then you really need your girls to give their all to succeed. You couldn't be any more wrong about assessment of the situation. It would be easy map where MVP has higher chance of being decided by last shot because value of other actions was low.
The MVP is the one who carries your fleet. Who hit the crucial shots like targeting proper Ru, getting Wo to chuuha, dodging hits from boss, tanking many shots, if she's chuuha'd removing escort in yasen and so on. Last shot is a big part of it but only a part. What matters is the total sum.

There's a fucking reason why best player award often doesn't go to anyone who scored the last point. If last shot was the only criteria, there would be little point in glorifying it because it could easily be the biggest choker of your fleet responsible for you wasting 100k instead of 60k. Hardly what I would call MVP. Just a choker who redeemed herself a bit at the end. Such MVP doesn't tell the story of your struggle, it completely ignores it. You're basically erasing your whole path in which you suffered so much.
>>

>>16179756
I don't get why anyone would bother with building a fleet but not equipment these days. When I started out I learned the importance of good equipment and was already shitting out Reppuu and 46cms in my first month, and sonars in my second month.

Of course, that was back in 2013-14 before fit guns and fighters with meme stats were a thing, but the point stands.

So for people who have leveled her already, what are effective ways to use Sara?
Bombers in the first slot and the rest fighters? Or does it depend on the map? Doesn't look like she is fit for scout planes.

>>16180456
I just got her but going by her slot, I think it would probably be similar to Graf. Bomber on first slot, the rest would be fighter. In fact, that's how I equip Kaga, bomber at the largest slot, fighters for the rest if AS is demanded.

>Medium or Hard?
Hard. 71 runs in total because of a mixture of misfortune, stupidity and stubbornness. I gotta tried different fleet compositions and I refused to alter my fleet when it was clearly disadvantageous to me, had to take 7-10 continuous retreats to convince me that it was not bad luck.

>how many runs for final
56 runs after final form of which only 10 of those runs are boss encounters. Switched to 3CV on the 36th run. Took me 10 continuous taihas to convince me last dance was serious business and I had to bring out the big guns. (I still use Kongou though).

>>16180597
>>16180552
Maya, Kongou, Tone, Kaga, Akagi, Unryuu. Maya for AACI, Tone with a seaplane fighter and observer for daytime DA, Kongou has the standard AP shell + seaplane observer and pic related for CV loadout. If you have upgraded your planes, I would think it would be higher but probably not high enough for AS+

Reppuu and 46cms aren't common stock equipment though. And remodelling one of each ship isn't going to give you anywhere near enough equipment to handle an event.

And one important category of equipment that many new players lack is ASW equipment, even though it's piss easy to craft. I blame the many people who claim that it's better to farm them off ships like Makigumo, when (1) they rarely if ever get drops from which you can farm T3 sonars, (2) even if they do they're still newfags with lowbie ships; they have other more important ships to train as well, and grinding DDs to level 30 is not easy for them because they don't have the required equipment for efficient setups i.e. they have no reason to train more than one of them, or prioritise the one they do keep over ships like Ayanami, Yuudachi, Asashio, Kasumi etc and (3) it doesn't account for T3 depth charges. Are you going to tell them to farm Isuzu or Arashi for them? Or do 10/30/10/10 but not 10/30/10/31?

I crafted most of my equipment when I first started out, and have never once been found wanting when it comes to equipment. Considering the number of people running around with 4 digit devmats, I'm of the opinion that most people are just far too stingy with their devmats.

>>16179955
Said superguns and planes help in clearing events, but they aren't vital for that. Same for upgrades. They make clearing events easier, but that's it.

Besides, I highly doubt that you can get enough equipment from events to forgo having to craft for equipment, especially when lacking equipment makes it kind of hard to clear events and get enough event equipment to begin with. It doesn't remove the underlying problem of having insufficient equipment.
>>
>>16180694
Because for some reason they don't want to expand the common enemy line.

Thanks, looking at yours and akankore's loadouts really drove home the fact that my loadout which I had pulled verbatim out of aircalc is suboptimal. Although I can get AS with only 7 fighters as opposed to 8 in all of your setups, that severely gimps my bombers down to a piddling 56 across all slots. Rearranging them manually comes up with this which seems much more powerful.

Lesson learned not to turn off my brain and let a tool do the work.

As a footnote I've subbed a Reppuu 601 in place of the Re 2005 since aircalc doesn't have it. And yes, old habits die hard and aircalc already has all my planes loaded in so I still use it even if it's no longer supported.

So none of the FBBs were built in Bordeaux nor had it as their home port. That means slow ones.
>>
>>16181402
She was probably talking about Toulon, where most of the french fleet under Vichy was moored during WWII. This included the Dunkerque and Bretagne class BB/CB, but none of them were even close to a match for the Richelieu class (both of which survived the war).
>>
None of the dreadnoughts either, so I'm stumped on what she meant by hometown.
>>
>>16181426
With all this slow BB bullying going on they're planning to add more slow ones? Great.
>>
>>16181435
Seems likely. I hope we don't actually get Richelieu, I don't know what I'll do if those quad mounts enter my fleet.

Not much choice. Any battleship with speed greater than 27 knots were actually a rarity before WWII. Before that they were either battlecruisers or slow battleships

CAV is crap compared to CLT. Can't even do shit vs Rus.
CLT can disable Ru with opening torp and basically guarantees two kills on boss node with quite possible kill in shelling as well. Only BB can match CLT's usefulness on E4.

They hinder accuracy and look stupid.
>>
>>16181459
Some retard posted "RJ is slow, are you slow too?" and now some people are trying to force it into a meme.
>>
>>16181545
I think they look great. People probably are used to picturing stuff like Iowa or Warspite whenever they think of battleships, and neither of them had quads.

>>16181549

They did have accuracy problems because of muzzle blasts at first, but they fixed that on Jean Bart by using delayed salvoes.
>>
What was the point of the white and red pattern on the VV-class battleships?
>>
>>16181545
Because they were junk.
>>
>>16181565
Most likely so allied planes could identify them as being Italian ships.
>>
>>16181565
>>16181572
When I say "allied" I mean allied with the Italians, not allied as in the Allies.
>>
>>16181574
I know, I'm not stupid. And it make sense I guess, considering how bad some pilots were at identifying their own ships.
>>
>>16181545
The french used quads for the same reason the british did: Grouping guns in fewer mounts saves a lot of weight on barbette armor. Richelieu roughly weighted 10,000 tons less than Bismarck with the same amount of guns, which is a huge deal.
>>
>>16181577
Won't that cause balancing issues?

I made a fast STF for E-3 debuffing but I keep being diverted going to E instead of G for the bottom route.

I also have 3 FBB 1 CA 2 CVL in the main fleet, and 4 historical ships in the escort.

>>
>multiple S on Node P, K, M, N, O and U
>over 4 times air supremacy + no hits + white text on air raids
>over 30 transport ships sunken
>no debuff
Someone help me.
>>
>>16181584
That's why they "only" used 15". 16" were planned for the Alsace class, but the Richelieu class couldn't handle them
>>
>>16181584
They considered the tradeoff worth it. A good armor scheme was hard to achieve on treaty battleships so the french used roughly the same "all or nothing" design as the US
>>
>>16181545
Well technically the Bofors the Americans used commonly was a quad mount too.
>>
>>16181545
What irks me the most about the French quad mounts is that they look like they just took two double mounts, welded them together, and then called it a day.
>>
>>16181612
>just took two double mounts
Two crowded double mounts*
If they didn't have the big space in the middle, it might not bother me as much.
>>
>>16181612
Well that's because they were.
>>
>>16181558
Wasn't Jean Bart the one that got owned by Ranger of all ships?
>>
>>16181612
If it looks that way that means they literally did that. In fact you can even see the welding.
>>
>>16181612
Well, that's exactly what they did, and there's a very good reason for that; the mounts were spearated by an armored wall in the middle, so that if one side was hit and disabled by an enemy shell during battle, the other half could still fire. Otherwise getitng your entire turret disabled would effectively mean cutting your firepower in half.
>>
>>16181622
Jean Bart in her incomplete state was owned by many ships.
>>
>>16181629
Okay, that actually sounds like a reasonable reason. So then why didn't the bongs do it, too?
>>
>>16181589
Then it has to do with the air raid.
>>
>>16181622
To be fair, sinking a stationary target in harbor and sinking a moving one in the high seas are two completely different things.

I always tell new people to do 10/30/10/31, 20/60/10/110 and 10/90/90/30 for development.
The problem is most of people asking for advice are retards who came here from wikia after playing for 1-3 months and wasting most of their devmats on crafing BBs/LSC so they don't have much to work with and they usually come here a week or two before the event.

You are very right about necessity to craft equipment. Even later on it's very important because high tier eq needs a lot of fodder for upgrades (like 16inch requiring 3 41cm until +6 and two 46cm after +6).
>>
>>16181680
Well the United States, and Britain were of course going to argue for the most possible tonnage. (United States argued it had to protect it's home waters and interests on two oceans and Britain said it's Navy was needed for it Imperial holdings) France and Italy agreed because they were too tired too argue and had other things to worry about.
It's actually funny Japan complained about racism when they had more allowed tonnage than France or Italy.

I only remember one time such thing happened.

Not sure about Taihou, Cranes completely outclass her and because of her low evasion, Kaga is pretty equal. Hotels, while super expensive, at least provide significant boost in power and especially survivability.
>>
>>16182798
I'd blame Tanaka. Unless Shibafu has some kind of iron-tight contract that prevents them from replacing him ever, it's up to the developers to decide which artists they pick for the game.

Something about Shibafu's work must appeal to Tanaka for them to keep using his shit. Maybe his commissions are cheap as hell. Maybe Shibafu's BFFs with Tanaka, I don't know. But it feels like there's got to be some reason other than the art itself that keeps Shibafu in their employ.
>>

Except Yadokari for some reason, it's still the same transparent art.

Isn't Shibafu still popular with Japanese people?
>>
>>16182806
Not him, but as a statsfag, I do think the game would be less fun without art, if only because the fact they are girls makes these threads more amusing to read. I play the game fully muted so removing voices wouldn't change anything.

I've wondered before whether I would use a sweaty old man ship if they ever released one if it had good stats, and I think I actually would.
>>
>>16182819
No, it's different transparent art. Not better but different.

I do periodically buy rings when an event-useful ship reaches level 99. If I thought marrying the sweaty old man ship would help with events, yeah I probably would. I'd feed him loli cereal too if he was a cut-in ship.
>>
>>16182817
>I only remember one time such thing happened.
Happened to me at least three times.

Taihou is firmly in the top 4 despite her low evasion, and newfags won't have the catapults for cranes kai 2A. Hotels can wait until they're actually ready for hard mode, which is a long while.

I would argue that you don't need Taihou either. I only got mine after playing for 14 months on last Christmas and not a single time did I feel "man, I wish I had Taihou, she would make clearing this map so much easier". I was fine with Kaga and something else (often Hiryuu) as my main carriers before Cranes Kai Ni happened.

>>16182883
Akira is on fence because his/her abyssals are still amazing and defnitely better than early sprites but normal ships (Mizuho and Teste) suck.

She may not be that useful late game, but she's still way more useful than hotels for early game.

Of course if you withhold LSC until you're ready to tackle hard then maybe hotels would be better (though Akitsu Maru is way more common from failed Taihou attempts, you can get them from failed hotels/Bismarck attempts too). The problem is that most people's hands are too itchy to not LSC for something.

Hiring people you personally know to cut costs is hardly unexpected of a browser game that started off having a low budget because it wasn't meant to last, and still has a low budget because Kadokawa refuses to reinvest in the game and prefers to invest in derivative works, merchandise, collabs and so on.

How does this even happen?

380.
>>
>>16182938
Yeah, I agree she's far more useful on normal maps.
Thing is, the cost of crafting her is huge and it basically stops you dead in track from whatever you were doing and you have to dedicate your whole existence to crafting her because bauxite expeditions are so shit and you have no guarantee if you'll escape this hell after a week, two or five.

Yes, I think one should withhold LSC until he is already capable of clearing events on hard. Every time you waste ~4k of each resource for one ~5% craft rate attempt, you could have used it to get good eq or grind more levels on your ships.
True about army dog, especially in the past when autogyro were superior to Seirans, oASW didn't exist and you needed a Reppuu mule for AS (now there are seaplane fighters too and getting AS is easier in general).
>>
Is it worth going with a fast fleet to E5 or should I just man up and bring Nagato?

I want to believe that if enough people ask the devs on their twitter for the return of Amamiya something good may happen. What can I lose? my twitter acount isn't linked to my DMM account and if they block me I'll just make another account and keep doing it.

>>16182991
Sub node isn't that bad. Just equip your DDs with OASW.

Node O is the one you have to worry about and you have to go through there no matter what kind of fleet you bring.

Your request will be lost among all the other begging that happens.

>if enough people ask the devs on their twitter for the return of Amamiya something good may happen.
To be more exact, if enough people on 4chan and on futaba keep memeing about it then it will happen.
>>
>>16183007
If you don't care about Asakaze, yeah. Run double support.
>>
>>16183025
But then the meme will die.
>>
>>16183012
Whenever there is a kai 2 remodel happening, some nips always beg for Samidare kai 2, so they have that down.

>>16183041
I'd pick Amamiya coming back over keeping a meme any day.

After what I went through and read in all of the threads, I think the best comp for chipping (if there's still anyone out there who hasn't started E4) is TCI DD/Iowa/CLT/Akizuki-class/TCI Abukuma/Chi-class CVL. TCI DD and Abukuma switchable for morale.

As for Last Dance, I'm worried it might not be enough for double Wo Kai (as it's hard to get more than parity) so I'm going with heavier fleet.

Not sure, it was my first sortie with heavy fleet. Second ended on preboss because fucking aimbot targeted the only ship which was anywhere close to taiha while rest sat at green.

Don't Drank & Kan, you'll sink your boats.

>>16183550
I am on final, yes. I think in both of my near kills, both Wos were alive going into night phase. Still, both were nearly kills, in one of them Kasumi choked and in the other Iowa's second attack on CV hime didn't crit.

I've considered going heavy fleet, not due to difficulties killing CV hime, but because a heavy fleet may do a better job reaching the boss.

it's goes the short route and it's sort of working, but you lose attacks at the boss node since there's no battleship.

This is my first attempt today after an hour and forty minutes of sparkling all three fleets. I started E4 yesterday morning. I don't think I even spent 20k of any resource on this.

She was supposedly more manueverable than Akagi or the Lexingtons due to being not as long.
That said I heard Akagi's evasion was as poor as any Lexington class ship.
>>
>>16184324
That luck is the stat that is determined by historical battle performance and survival rate, not evasion. Even the fastest, most evasive ships can get hit by lucky strikes while sluggish ships can avoid getting hit entirely.

That being said, I don't know how fast and evasive the real Kaga was compared to the real Saratoga.

Akagi has definite pity stats as well as beginner's first carrier stats. Plus being the flagship of the first carrier division during the war stats.
But yes Akagi if based on real life and performance should have poor defensive stats. Being done in by one bomb and being attacked by less planes than the other Midway 4 does not speak well for her Evasion or health.

I'm not arguing that, Taihou is better than Sara to begin with because she can still attack while chuuha. But both of them having lower evasion than the other carriers doesn't really affect either much, evasion is pretty useless against crits.
>>
>>16184490
Sara is a nice filler carrier though for locks.

I already unlocked the point. I just can't consistently get to the boss and score an S.

Does E5 get tougher when you S rank node A a few times?

>>16184492
She does have solid stats for a standard carrier.
>>
>>16184492
maybe we can get more CVLs for locks
>>
>>16184507
She is the only non-armored Carrier that's decent that has her largest plane plane slot as her first. So she gets that bonus damage.
>>
so what do I do first on e-5? try to s rank A? what do I do with my planes for that?
>>
>>16184466
It is easy. I cleared in 12 sorties (not counting secret node unlocking) with a fast fleet and Prinz as the only nukeship.
>>
>>16184511
Hope for Independence class then. They were the only other fleet carriers that were fast(according to Kancolle rules). Especially since event maps now have slow ship bullying.
Royal Navy had light carriers too, but they went 25 knots and thus would be slow.

Somewhere above 600 for heavy fleet so you can get AS at the boss. Pic related gave me 522 fighter power at the boss, just 4 more than the 518 required.

Not sure about light fleet but you want enough for AP at the boss.

What comp is recommended to open up the 2nd spawn in E5?
>>
Do you go for both A node S rank and airbase defense at the same time or separate them?
>>
>>16184947
I went with full carrier fleet but it was probably a mistake. I had too many big ships so I got routed through all the detours and probably wouldn't have been able to s rank A because of ammo penalty if I didn't get lucky with green T.
>>
>>16184947
I used 1 Maya (FCF) 1 FBB 2 CVL 2 CV + 1 ABKM 2 DD (OASW) 1 Bismarck 1 CLT 1 Prinz, but it depends on what you have left that isn't locked out of the map.

Route support and LBAS too, of course. I got lucky and got my 2 perfect defenses during my first run; after that I started sending planes to cover my fleet during the air battle nodes, although I suppose you could send them to A as well (range 5, I think). I hadn't bothered checking the range at the time, go me.
>>
>>16184987

Forgot to add. I ran out of fast CVLs so I had to use Hiyou + Jun'you. It's an extra air battle node, but nothing too worrisome. Just don't go to the extra full combat node at the top of the map (you go there if BB+CV is equal to or more than 5, I think). You only want to go there if you're actually going to bother debuffing the boss.
>>
Wish it was easier to get a hold of Taiteis. At this rate, I might as well go back to E-3 and farm Akitsushima (still don't have her, been surviving on the PBY I got from Spring).

Long-ranged fighters are a pain, too. I wish we could get base range 7 fighters that weren't Skilled 21s (or even worse, plain 21s).
>>

>go back to E-3 and farm Akitsushima
This is what I'm planning to do. Didn't need LBAS for the boss of the final map this time but who knows what the future will bring

Any fast fleet works, though you might want to use kido butai. On hard mode the A node can get pretty mean, and if I remember correctly the air power requirements are upwards of 400.

I said I cleared my perfect / flawless defenses for LBAS early on during my *first* run, on the way to node A with my (slow) fleet. After that, since I only really needed one LBAS for defense, I started sending the other 2 squadrons to other nodes for the hell of it.

Planes is the biggest problem. Only the top tier oldfag planes have enough range to make LBAS not completely worthless. 7+ range planes are hard to get and Hard mode is way harder without good LBAS.

Dude, i can't reach boss node in 3-2 without one of my ships getting owned en rout. World 5 is nonexistent to me right now.
I did screw around with priorities on what ships to level, but it's either level CV/CVL/CA for the event or DD/CL for 3-2, and for bad or for worse, i chose the former.
>>
>>16185366
Oh right, I forgot about LBAS. I hope they do find a solution for that because I completely agree with what you said

Shit. I was using Bismarck in my escort fleet before and I forgot to take the yasen scout off her.
>Why is Kaga a flagship?
She keep getting crit on preboss so I moved her into flagship.
>>
>>16185373
Modernize your DDs, maybe sparkle them. Getting past Ru is easy, only compass is annoying on 3-2.
You can easily grind six DDs on 1-5 while still below HQ80, abuse this.
>>
>>16185371
anything else i should look out for? So far I have on the bucket list the ZKK fighter plane, some CA guns and that tank you mentioned


already finished the duki guns +9 before i took a year break
>>
>>16185380
Make her a Reppuu mule then so that Cranes dish out better nukes with increased crit rate and so that second shelling starts with Bismarck (move Bisko above Ashigara).
>>
>>16185379
It is. I think making the lower tier LBAS planes craftable would work though. Even if they won't be swimming in top tier planes for their first or second event I do think that's fine
>>
>>16184324

She was torpedoed twice in the space of a year and took a kamikaze at Iwo Jima. Learn2history dipshit.

I'm already past 80 and am still a casual piece of shit. Also, isn't it easier to level 1BB4DD1SS on 3-2-1 then playing russian roultte on every node in 1-5?
Thanks for the advice anyway.
>>
>>16185397
Pre HQ 80 1-5 had easy sub nodes which never hit you, 1500 exp per run. But it's too late for that now.
>>
>>16185397
Unlock 5-1 then for the sweetest DD grind spot. In the meantime you can train them on 4-1 assuming they're Kai modernized.
>>
>>16185391
They have to either make interceptors craftable. It would help out the people who just started and want to clear on hard. The stupid fucking requirement to have perfect S rank can fuck people up even if they have all the plane, imagine the newer players.
>>
>>16185406
Yeah, interceptors too obviously. I do think new players should have to put in extra work but making things out right impossible is just bad for the game
>>
>>16185402
I know. I used it to level there periodically, but not enough i guess.
>>16185404
All my DD's are kai but most aren't fully modernised. Anyway, i can't pass 3-2 at the moment so 4-1 will have to wait.

Thanks again, i guess.

Ugh. I kinda thought that world 4 would be a lot harder than 3 so i decided not going there then straight up forgot i could at least try.

Has anyone actually completed all the one-time quest chains? Most of the time it's "Kill this boss you've already killed but with a shittier shipgirl". I've ignored them completely and I'm HQ 105.
>>
>>16185511
A lot of people. I'm only missing Akatsuki quest and a couple of new ones.

So which is the best way to reach the boss for E4 final run? Choices are:

1fBB1CVL1CAV1CL2DD
2fBB2CV2CAV
1fBB1CVL1CLT1CL2DD
1fBB1CV1CL3DD

I can't afford 4BB2CV and think it is dumb with the additional airstrike node and no AACI. Anyone cleared E4 can give some insight?
>>
>>16185519
4BB2CVB rocks on this map.
Go with CLT, she helps a lot vs Ru and in clearing trash on boss node.
>>
>>16185511
It's the first thing you should do before you even begin keeping your favorites.
>>
>>16185519

I cleared it with:
>>16175626
>>16175813

Your mileage may vary, as always.
>>
>>16185524
>Go with CLT, she helps a lot vs Ru and in clearing trash on boss node.

I have 2 runs with KTKM in the fleet pre-final. Her opening torp sucks. I am thinking about 1fBB1CVL1CLT1CL2DD but have trouble reaching AP. Does the AACI contribute to the air superiority calculation?
>>
>>16185505
Seriously, the default office and that Kongou reminds me of that Abrar guy when api links were still a thing. rip

>>16185511
Yes, not having them shit up your quest page is great.

>>16185533
No.

>>16185525
So you actually levelled all those literallywho ships like Nenohi and Wakaba just to do the quests?

>>16185530

Passing through the double Wo node seems tricky to me. Did the support help? Which pre-boss node you has the most trouble with?
>>
>>16185541
What's wrong with that? You're supposed to do the quests.
>>
>>16185541
Most of them you can easily do with level 1 ships and if not getting them remodelled doesn't even take an hour.

Also personally I wanted to keep one of every ship anyway.
>>
>>16185556
>TFW almost quads

... Anyway. Support helped more for the route than the boss node (though like I said, even 1-2 trash DDs cleared at the boss is better than nothing).

If I recall correctly, Wo-Kais gave me some trouble from time to time, but Rus were the problem as usual. Everything was sparkled, too.

Is Nagato worth going through all the extra nuclear nodes?
>>
>>16185793
Subs have shit accuracy in combined fleet. They can't even hit my 0morale boats most of the time.
>>
>>16185793
I say so, especially if you don't have the others. If you're on hard but have the other two along with land bombers, they make short work of the boss node.
>>
>>16185793
Yes. And yes, the subs can be deadly but seeing Nagato one-shotting BB/CV Hime is fucking worth it. Trust me.
>>
>>16185798
>nuclear subs
>shit accuracy
I don't follow.

>>16185807
>>16185810
Just send fighters to some of the air nodes?
>>
>>16185813
If you're able to, I say put them at Node O, that node is shit no matter what you bring.
>>
>>16185813
Unlike E4 subs, they are harmless. They have terrible hit rate against combined fleet.

1Nagato > 2DD
If you are that scared of subs, put your 2DD on full ASW duty.
>>
>>16185758
I think most people are only bothered by that one attack line, you know which one. And unfortunately that's the line you hear the most.
>>
>>16185813
I send Taitei + fighters to P and another comprising of Taitei, 1 figher and 2 LBAS to O. Putting everything to O is good alternative as well. To be fair, it was the subs that send me home the most.
>>
>>16185827
Are you forgetting the B node when you are trying to unlock the second point?
>>
>>16185831
Not him but I just hate that you may hear it more than once, possible three times in one node.

The devs really should have made the lines cycle more naturally or had them say more than 3 lines for day time battle to avoid this situation more often.
>>
>>16185837
Are you an idiot?
Why would you bring Nagato to A? Also you are supposed to go full ASW when you are trying to trigger enemy air raid for perfect defense by choosing to go toward JKM sub node
>>
>>16185847
You said combined fleet have a lesser chance of getting hit and that node is a combined fleet as well.
>>
>>16185849
And yeah, they have shit accuracy as well.
Are they really more accurate than M? I don't see how subs node is a problem in E5.
>>
>>16185852

>>
>>16185938
Dunno, seeing so many alternatives just confuses about what I should use, when and if I should lock this or that ship out of E-5. I have no fucking clue where to start.
>>
I guess Matsukaze will be joining us next event considering Asakaze directly references her.
>>
>>16185988
Your guess is pretty much as good as ours. The way I approached it was to try and stick to using whoever I already locked to E4 as a basis and to slowly add in ships I probably wouldn't need for E5 if the comp didn't work out. Use the recommended comps on the wiki as a guide and adjust to suit what ships you have available.
>>
>>16186065

>>16186065

>>
>>16185988
I cleared E-4 a few days ago. E-5 is much less demanding by comparison. For what it's worth, I have more ships locked to E-4 than to E-5 as of right now, mostly due to trial-and-error-ing my way through that mess.

Ideally, you want to keep 2 CVLs (slow is fine, just one extra air battle node) for when you run to A to unlock the second spawn point. Also a total of 4 CVs, including 2 which will follow your 2 CVLs to A. You need 4 or so for when you start hitting the boss from the second spawn point.

Within those 4 CVs, you want to have about 2-3 (my opinion, others have probably done E-5 Hard with less) from the following pool: Akagi / Kaga / Souryuu / Hiryuu / Taihou / Zuikaku / Shoukaku (assuming you didn't already lock Dragons to E-2/3).

(F)BB(V)s are pretty flexible. I kept Bismarck for my escort fleet, but a lot of people used her in E-4 and got away with it. If you're bringing Nagato from the second spawn point, you're going to be taking the extra submarine node route anyway, so fast/slow matters much less by that point.

Obviously, reserve Prinz and Sakawa (if you have them) for E-5, too.

At least one specialised AACI ship (Maya or Akizuki-class DDs) is highly recommended, because this map is full of air battles. I kept Maya for this map, but again, people have used her elsewhere and cleared it just fine.

Abukuma is an option for E-4 or E-5, depending on what your options are. I don't have Sakawa, so I kept mine for E-5. Also, 1-2 CLTs are good to have for E-5.

Your 2 DDs in the escort fleet can be anything, really. I have mine on (O)ASW because I don't like the way the submarines at the extra node look at me, might swap one out during Last Dance for extra night battle power, though.

1-2 solid K2 CAs are probably also good to have for E-5 if you don't have Bismarck and/or Prinz.

E-4 is a mess, but try what you can while keeping the above in mind and you should be able to save enough ships for E-5 Hard without too many issues.

Hope that helps for planning.

Yeah but I meant she directly addresses her. Just like how Saratoga directly addresses someone who looks like Yorktown. It's not just a reference.
