Goya hopes you spend more time at E-6!

How do I get enough damage to final kill E-4 midway hime?

>>12381876
Sanshiki up her ass.

>>12381878
Oh, does sanshiki work on her? I gave mogami a type-3 and she did scratch damage at night.

>>12381881
Give it to both CAs.

Somewhat interesting find. Despite fleets 1 and 2 being linked together as a combined fleet, using Mamiya does not replenish morale of both fleets.

As I expected. Otherwise, it would be overly convenient and potential for profit would be lost.

>>12381881
It's Mogami. You have to rub her dick more.

>>12381883
I'm only using one CA.

>>12381872
Don't worry, I'll scrap you after I finish E-6

>>12381872
Are you saying to bring her to E6?

>>12381876
Sanshiki on everyone that can carry it. Boss support usually kills all the fodder right away so that all your ships get a shot at Midway, too.

Now for some shameless whining on /jp/ in an attempt to get Kiyoshimo. E-4 is giving me nothing but Suzuya, Kaga, and Myoukou. I'm gonna run out of buckets at this rate!

>>12381886
What's your fleet composition?

>>12381891
Kiyoshimo doesn't drop on E-4. Go farm E-3.

>>12381881
>mogami
Oh my, she was the one who made me spent more than 60 buckets on E1 final kill just because she decide to do scratch damage at the final moment.

>>12381892
Fleet 1:
Haruna
Kongou
Akagi
Kaga
Zuikaku
Ryujo

Fleet 2:
Mogami
Isuzu
Shigue
Yuudachi
Shimakaze
Yukikaze

>>12381883
>>12381878
>>12381886

I am in the same situation. I don't have Akitsumaru. And damn Mogami does not deal as much damage as Maya or Choukai in AL. I missed them already.

>>12381893
There are reports that she does. Either way, I also need Akitsu Maru so I'll just bitch about not getting her then!

So admirals, what will be your E-7?

>>12381903
Kiyoshimo.

>>12381895
Consider switching a DD for a CA. You're DDs can't cut-in on Midway if I remember correctly (she's immune to torpedoes), so you'll want more CA double attack power.

>>12381903
Maybe I'll try to farm more Akitsumarus for boats.

>>12381903
E3 for the 2 DD if I feel like it. I'll be burned out when I finished E6

>>12381903
There can be no E-7 for me since I got the event drops before finishing E-5 and got Whale and Urakaze within 3 boss visits out of E-6
The only obtainable ship I don't have, now, is Musashi

>>12381906

Your*

Also switching out a DD is not an option. I will try once more switching out Mogami for Aoba.

>>12381906
I was under the impression that 4 DDs gives you B-D-H-K route. Can I replace Isuzu with a CA or will that ruin my branching? she's only kai btw.

>>12381900
Not sure what reports you've read that says she does, but the only source I give any credence to says she doesn't show up in E-4.

>>12381895
You can stack 20.3cm + 2 15.5 sub gun + sanshiki on Mogami for max damage at night battle.

>>12381903
Do Hachi drops at E-6?

>>12381916
>B-D-H-K
Forgot about that. I think you can go south with just Akitsumaru and a CVL as well.

Regardless, I didn't have any problems getting the boss kills and I used a 1CL 2CA 3DD composition. I also didn't go the B-D-H-K route either.

>>12381916

You must have at least 1 CL. I have a similar composition as yours and I tried that just now.

>>12381928
I don't own Akitsumaru, but I guess the north route ain't so bad.

>>12381903
It was LSC. I blew over 100k trying to get Yamato.

I got Musashi. Oh well.

I'm going, going, gone.

>>12381934

Trust me, north route is better than south. The best route is B C F J K

>>12381915
>Your*
Shit. It's getting late and I've been doing E-6 too long.
I don't have the stats in front of me, but pick whichever CA has the best combined firepower and torpedo stats.

>Perfect S first 2 nodes of E2
>reach preboss node
>Shouhou gets crit to red during aerial combat

Dostedt. I haven't had a successful run of E2 in like 16 sorties.

>>12381937

I understand that you guys like to put KTKM as the flagship for the flagship protection, but if everyone else is getting wrecked, you can't finish the boss too. Try switching her with a CA and see.

80-85 condition each ship, first node. Im nearing 100 total sorties on this map now.

>>12381941
You could have made that exact same post but without the greentext.

Now, you're just going to get shat upon by the greentext police instead.

>>12381944
Easy to say except the entirety of his fleet got wrecked.

Shifting the damage from one ship to another would hardly change the outcome of that mess.

>>12381944
>Try switching her with a CA
I doubt it. The reason why I put KTKM as the flagship was because she's consistently hitting the boss before. Now she's performing really badly.

>>12381947
This is why I don't believe in sparkling.

>>12381947
How much gauge left?

>>12381954
I am >>12381937 and it would. Boss was left with 247 and Kitakami could have shaved 245 - 248 HP leaving Nagato to clear up the mess. However, Kitakami fails to do a cut-in despite nightscout and flare activated.

And of course, support fleet doing jackshit.

I cannot get anything better than a B in E-3. Switching out fighters would put me at parity against MI. Am I doing something wrong or is that just how MI is designed?

>>12381962
Sparkling works. Trust me, it does. Not all the time, but it can save your ass on yasen nodes.

>>12381968

final kill, nearing 50 sorties for this.

>>12381903
maruyu

>>12381947
>>12381954
>>12381959

I've decided, after this event, I will not go sortie, I will hoard my resources and buckets like crazy until the next event arrives. I am not in E6 yet, but seeing the agony that you guys endured, I just don't think I can handle it.

>>12381971
>I cannot get anything better than a B in E-3
In air-raid nodes? It's normal.

>>12381971
Have you tried searching the archives? Tips have been provided to you everywhere.

>>12381962

Say that to my girls when they wreck you in dodge-ball next Saturday.

Is there a reason my DDs hit at a consistently lower dmg when E-4 hime is in red? When she's orange they do 20+20 double attacks but when she's red they do shit like 3+3 double attacks.

>>12381969
If I'm not wrong, night scouting just increases the chance of dealing crit damage, not improve cut-in chance.

>>12381962
I would say that sparkling has kept me my sanity with doing E-6. Every run has acceptable results, with about a 90% boss rate.

>>12381982
Someone says something about scratch damage is based on current HP.

>>12381984
>night scouting just increases the chance of dealing crit damage, not improve cut-in chance.
Ah my bad then. I think it's just accuracy that is increased.

>>12381980
Beach volleyball KanColle game when?

Are you guys resparkling after every sortie, or do you use them up then resparkle? First method makes me want to kill myself less.

>>12381995
Do you sparkle to 85?

>>12381995
Full sparkle after they fall to <56 to be safe in case of 2 losses.

>>12381993
Only one kanmusu is TOP GUN enough.

>>12381995
I only resparkle when a kind admiral gives me a ship or two to kill for fleetwide sparkle. I can't be bothered individually sprakling every ship.

>>12381995
One of your ships or two would get MVP after a sortie so it saves time to sparkle them all.

>>12381997

Yes.

>>12381997
Do those increased evasion and attack happen only after 85?

>>12381977
We're on the same boat. I initially had the goal of clearing up to E-6 but stopped at E-5 because of resources and buckets constraints. I still do have the ships for it but for my first event I didn't expect it to be this way. I always die a little inside every time I see their 200k resources and over 1000 buckets get flushed down the drain just for that final kill. Godspeed anons. You can always do it. Just believe.

>>12382007
Above 53.

>>12381969
On my last kill my super support fleet with one spare Yamato did incredible 13 damage to one DD. Thanks to KTKM cut-in I did it.

>>12381995
Sparkle to 85. Resparkle with one or two runs when sub-60 as needed. Full sparkle to 85 again when multiple ships come down to 49.

>>12382010
>>12381977
Be glad you've farmed all your drops. I figured I'd spend my remaining buckets farming the two yuugumos, but have thirty left and still haven't gotten either of them.

When's the luckiest time to event sortie? It seems like RNG only fucks me over during Japanese afternoons.

Seems like everyone was lucky except me, I couldn't even kill one BB Hime during the day with 2 Yamato and a Nagato.

>>12382010

It amazed me that some people here manage to reach the cap resources. I can gather at most 2~3k resources on Sunday, and barely got pass 1k on the weekdays. Where do they get all the time to do the expeditions?

>>12382023
Out of how many sorties?

>>12382026
Scripts

>>12382019

There are only 2 ships I really want from this event. They are Tanikaze and Akashi. I haven't get any of them.

What's the best combined fleet formation for the boss? My escort fleet keep missing the enemies while the enemies always blast someone to orange or red.

>>12382026
They're either full NEETs or scripters.

>>12382026
NEET.

>>12382029
11 final form sorties so far, 5 damecon used. KTKM either cuts in on the wrong hime or doesn't cut in at all.

>>12382030

Bans?

>>12382040
What's your eLos?

>>12382047
111. I still get dead ends every now and then.

>>12382042
The only people who get banned are all those chinese botters and people using KCT.

>>12382026
Just running drum expeditions will net you more than 1k. Heck even doing dailies efficiently will give you more than 1k.

>>12382026
Some of those people have been playing for a year. Plan your expeditions and it'll add up. I don't know how you can't make more than 1k, that's just two rounds of 22/37/38.

/jp/, I think I have found RNG enlightenment for when my Nagato taiha'd at the yasen node, I felt nothing, peaceful in fact. I think I can finally complete E6.

>First LSC is a heavy cruiser

>>12382066
At least it's not Mucchan.

>>12382067
Can't argue with that.

>>12382066
You'll get used to that. Come back after your 100th attempt to craft Taihou with no success.

Kik- maffiamike
Instagram- mikedewitte

Got a reppuuu on my second craft with Unryuu, maybe that anon was right.

>>12382050
I had 136 eLOS and got sent home once out of 27 rolls (that's about 140 sorties). It's probably worse for people with less.

Time to spend my last 36 buckets going for the last kill of E6. At least it's baby mode, so Ooi and KTKM-sama should be fine.

>>12382097
How baby mode are we talking?
I was pretty sure there's still a chance for sub 100 lvl TTKs to get the double Hime setup.

>combined fleet night battle node
>2nd fleet gets rekt in the process of killing off the enemy fleet
>Perfect S on result screen
Jap devs, why are you so silly

sparkling six ships for 2-3 e-6 runs, just for chipping the gauge, is really painful

and then resparkling the route support and some DDs for boss support

>>12382061

I only unlock my expedition until 23. I just got my 4th subs, now I can unlock more.

>>12382052

I really can't differentiate between botting and scripting in this game.

Also, isn't KCT just like KCV?

>>12382118
KCV passively sniffs your data. KCT requests additional data from the server, the former is ambiguously accepted by the devs while the latter is a definite no-go.

>>12382097
Only the boss left at night, with 283 HP remaining, on my 100th sortie, with UC playing, and KTKM at full HP does a cutin.

37 HP left. FUCK

>>12382103
Level 98.

>>12382118
KCT is like KCV except coded by the same morons who hacked a Musashi on a server created after the Fall event, tried to make an English patch and are now developing (or pretending to develop, I don't know) a private server called Pearl Harbor.

Mind you, these guys are true gems. It's hard to find attention whoring little shits of their caliber anywhere on the internet.

>>12381941
Complaining on jp OP as fuck

Does anyone know if slow BBs can still make it to boss node at E-4? I'm saving my Kongous for the last event and using Nagato and Mutsu for MI, and having been sent to E node twice, I feel like I'm doomed. Not Akitsumaru either.

I wish I didn't cheap out on the support expedition. 9k fuel left

Oh man. On my last run of the night. I was going to turn in after this because my general support fleet was out of sparkles. KTKM cut-in and bobship finished the job. I credit the night scout and the searchlight, acquired from bobships. Always bet on bobships.

My poor buckets.

2CLT2CA2CVL for the curious.

>>12382126
Just thank your lucky stars that you don't have two for KTKM to pick between.

>>12382143
Which path do you go with that setup?

>>12382139
>using Nagato and Mutsu for MI
Unless they were severely under-leveled, why would you do this? You're going to miss their firepower for E-6.

>>12382139
How many Kongous are you saving for E6. At most you will need is 2 because Hime is unkillable unless you're betting on Haruna's cut-in.

>>12382143
Of all the support I have run, none of them had touched the flagship in any way.

>>12382151
ACH or ACF at random, usually heads north most of the time though.

Where is that faggot that said TA always misses? She just critted Chitose and Ooi straight into oblivion when she was already at chuha.

>>12382124
>>12382129

So the potential hacking is why it got banned? How about scripting? In one sense scripting gives you an unfair advantage against those who don't do it without investing your time.

http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv190044075

Suzuya strong as hell

>>12382144
How did you spend 50k steel with that setup?

>>12382158
Alright, thanks. I tried with 2CLT 2BB CVL CV and get sent to B quite often, so I was wondering if it was the CV. I guess it was the BBs.

>>12382163
Go home. You've dug too deep.

>>12382153
>How many Kongous are you saving for E6. At most you will need is 2 because Hime is unkillable unless you're betting on Haruna's cut-in.
But aren't BB cut-ins garbage that have a shit 40-150 damage range or something

>>12382163
>So the potential hacking is why it got banned?
In a sense, it's not hacking. Devs don't like it when you incur extra overhead to their servers and that's what KCT did.

Scripting is a no-go as well however if you do it smart, it would be quite undetectable. All in all, don't bother doing thinking about it. You don't need max res for the event or all the event.

>>12382175
I have no idea, I never count on BB's cut-in at all. BB are there to ensure day battle goes smoothly.

>>12382169
I didn't use that setup the entire time. I did the first 50% gauge damage with 2-3BB and 1-2CV compositions until I turned the light fleet setup.

>>12382139
Nagato and Mutsu just made it to boss node.

Seems fast BB isn't a req. But likely gives higher % to not end in dead end,

>>12382178
The Yamato thing was hacking, they accessed data from the Summer event.

But yeah, scripting only gets you banned if you get caught doing it. Only shit admirals with no honor or love would resort to it, though. It's on the same scale as sacrificial ships.

>>12382139
Definitely. I used BBVs in MI. Age of aviation.

>>12382172
>>12382178

Well, I guess I'm going to do it the normal way then.

Sometimes some people really have it.

>>12382195
The kiss of the goddess?

I'm just going to take a break from E6 and go gather my SANS and dignity or something. Hopefully, RNG will be kinder when I get back.

>>12382195
My server all 6-6 pvp has her, I'm so damn fucking frustrated right now when I've spent 20k stuff and I haven't even cut the bar to half.

>>12382164

now he gets Bismarck. Seriously his luck today

How important is boss support fleet in E-5?

>>12382219
I didn't use it. Never failed to S rank the boss.

>>12382219
Not important. MI is a joke map.

>>12382224
Alright then. The final form doesn't improve her much like in E-2, right?

Do people with light fleets sparkle them all and both supports? honestly, I was getting rekt 80% of time on the first node with them and barely damaging the boss even if I made it.

With AL completed, the most damage is in buckets from E1 and my pride as a ttk.

On to MI.

>>12382219
The only time I failed to S-rank E-5's boss is when my second fleet got crit to red by an angry Ru.

>>12382231
What's your light fleet?

>>12382232
>Net 30 buckets used in AL
You are luckier than most TTK

>>12382232
If I'm reading that right, you lost 30 buckets net for AL?

That's pretty good m8. Nothing to come here and bitch about at least.

>>12382234
2CA 2CLT 2CV or 2CVL

>>12382231
I sparkle my sortie fleet, the entire pre-boss support fleet, and the flagship for the boss support fleet.

Boss support burns morale too fast keep entirely sparkled.

>>12382164

Isokaze, Bismarck and Musashi now.

>>12382241
4 saiun?

>>12382246
dat 7/7/7/2 100 last try.

>>12382246
Unryuu confirmed for crafting Musashi.

Breast power.

>>12382248
I think I had at least 3. 4 depends if I wanted more night equip or not.

Fuck this shit, what do I need to get at least some chipping to the boss bar?! bomb the hospital? kidnap some baby and offer it to satan?

shit, I will really do it if thats what I need to do.

What the fuck. I just went south route at E-4 without 4 DD comp or Akitsumaru. What the fuck E-4?

>>12382262

You need to join ISIS.

>>12382266

It is normal, sometimes it will happen. I once reach a dead end with the same LoS I always have.

Haruna/Hiei 97: 46x2,radar,plane

What do you think of this E-3 fleet?

Anyone else using 3 BB + Tone & Chikuma + 1 CV for E-6?

The night battle node kicks my ass most of the time, but I get complete kills any time I get to the boss.

>>12382103
Confirmed that there is a chance at 98. Bitch made Ooi go red instead of yellow, too.

>>12382267
Fuck that fake group. they only want fame, I want luck.

>>12382274
I did. Enjoy it until you get the final form.

>>12382271
Good. I had the same 1st fleet set up but my escort fleet was 3DD, 1CLT, 1CL 1,CAV.

>>12382280
Did you use damecons on your BBs while chipping the gauge? 90% of the time when I get turned back, it's because Mutsu or Hiei got crit on the night battle node.

>>12382271
What happened to your Souryuu's Egusa squad?
You may want to swap sanshiki for more radars too.
And what the hell with that Kiso set up?

how do I beat E-4 I can't get through the boss' 600 health even with a combined fleet and support expedition
i gave both my BBs sanshiki yet they still continue to miss or do 30 scratch damage and during night battle my second fleet does like a combined total of 20 damage. CVs do scratch damage too.

>>12382283
>damecons on your BBs

What's the point of advancing with BBs doing nothing?

>>12382026
When did you start playing?
October babby here.
Since February after I finished LSC, I never play the game anymore outside of event, monthly reset and daily pvp reset.
Then it is just expedition 5,21 and 38 when I do login. You only spend more like around 30mins on the game each day. Basically 6months of inactivity to get this kind resources.

>>12382288
If 5 of your ships aren't even at lightly damaged and one is red, it might be worthwhile.

>>12382288
Maybe he has goddesses to burn.

>>12382271
This was mine. I was sometimes sent to the dead end node but 90% of the time I went to the boss node.

>>12382287
Give Sanshiki to your escort CA/CAVs.
BBs with sanshiki won't do much damage in day battle.

>>12382285
I haven't really played much in the past two months so I just remodelled her and Hiryuu and didn't pay too much attention to their equipments. Thanks!
>>12382281
Great! Time to wait for my second expedition spot to come clean then and rush out.

>>12382256
Just tried twice.
2xMaruyu

>>12382297
That's better than 2xMutsu

>>12382296
Did you do the quest to upgrade that Type 99 Ace squad into Suisei Ace squad?
Same for Hiryuu's Tomonaga squad.

Don't we have a good not too expensive composition for E-6, I lost my sanity ever since I started it now I'm really really desperate to get it done after all the damage it gets me.

My liver stop functioning for all this fucking frustrating run.. please at least let me chip the boss bar damn it. why can't I be lucky enough for just that?

>>12382303
I didn't do them because I have artrocious luck.
I regularly tried doing the quest with the married flagship for example, but I haven't managed to get to the boss even once since the first day it was avaiable. I tried roughly once a week I think.
After the event! I have enough of the other good or formerly best planes too, thanks to playing for long.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm24259867

I've never seen a destroyer survive in a E-6 run before.

>>12382305
Use sparkling (it's not placebo; it won't let you reach the boss node 100% of the time, but it'll increase your chances more than any other single factor) and don't use a composition that requires you to bring shit deadweight ships like CVL.

>>12382305
If you have the ships for it, some anon tried a fairly economical 1CLT 2CAV 1CV 2CVL comp that I'm going to try as soon as I get Chikuma's second remodel finished.

>>12382305
2CLT1SSV3CV and 2CA2CLT2CVL are the cheapest chipping compositions available.

>>12382295
Should I be using the bottom right formation?

>>12382308
You don't even need to do that Souryuu Kai 2 sortie quest to unlock her plane upgrade quest.
Hiryuu's plane quest is the only one requires you to do her sortie quest, but 5-2 isn't really that heavy on compass trolling.

>>12382315
Every MI boss is bottom right formation.

>>12382311
I did sparkle all of them to 85, but its always the preboss.. they all target the same ship each and every time.
This is why I said bad luck, I'm always leaving the preboss with just one randomly critical ship and usually the one without damecon

>>12382313
I wish I have some cruiser left, if I'm doing a powerlevel, what's the minimum I should aim? HQ106 here.

>>12382314
Its a first I saw that composition, what should I put on those 3 CVs?

>>12382326
Enough Saiun to pass the LoS check, then some bombers to eliminate DDs from the first and boss nodes.

Fighters aren't that important because you're usually going through the night battle node, just get superiority at boss.

>>12382295
The CAs still do only like 100 damage, the boss always ends up with about 100 health left.

>>12382326
If you want to use CA(V)s, you're best bet is either Haguro/Myouko or Tone/Chikuma kai 2. The latter require blueprints, so I'd go with the former if you really don't mind all the resources it'll take to power-level them.

>>12382336
>you're
your

Why aren't those good things dropping? I've been doing this for so long. I did about 20 sorties before I decided to do this to keep my SANS in check.

>>12382334
Are your CAs got damaged after day battle or something? No way CA double attack in night battle with sanshiki only deal 100 damage to Midway hime.

Finally done with the event, E-6 was more annoying that difficult.

All of it done without spending a single cent on this game.

>>12382340
It's true, full hp and the first hit does about 20 damage non crit then the second does like 80 damage crit, both of them.

>>12382311
Going for final kill?
Just go all out on support and use the northern route. It is the one with the highest success especially if you put damekon on your CVL.
If KTKM and the big hitters can make it safe in good health and your support does it job then it is smooth sailing.

>>12382336
I need about 110elos but I'm not sure about air superiority. the CLT goes with double yellow and type a?

>>12382331
Too bad I've used the former on AL and the latter on MI.. damn it, I only read about 2CVL needed for E6 and saved ChitoChiyo + RJ for it.

>>12382338
That joke is as dead as your grandmather, stfu and let it rest.

Oh, I am more of a baby than you. I started late May, this year, after getting in the lottery. I only get to know that this game got "event" in like, late June and started stockpiling.

I ran expedition 3,6,11,16,21 (haven't unlock 38) daily and just started using KCV a month ago. Bauxite and steels are hard to come by for me with these expedition.

By the way, what is the expected time for the next event?

>>12382353
2CVL, 2CA(V) and 3CV(L) all guarantee node C.

You really, really want to go to node C, because it's usually a free pass and even when it isn't, the alternative (two consecutive night battle nodes) is not something you want to undertake.

>>12382353
If you're CLT is KTKM use a cut-in setup. She gives you a fair chance of a OHKO.

>>12382355
The preboss kaga is where my hate lies on.

>>12382356
>you're
Where are you from? For research purposes.

>>12382356
> you're
your. Speak English or die.

>>12382343

Congratz. I wish I hadn't spend any money on this game, but I am a hoarder. I buy 20 ship space already. I realised that ship space is like refrigerator space. No matter how big your fridge is, you will always have a full fridge.

>>12382354
There'll probably be a Fall event in a few months followed by a Winter event.

I'd expect the schedule to line up roughly to what last year's event times were, especially considering that the Spring and Summer events roughly coincide to what last year's were. But, the devs could always switch that up if they feel like it.

>>12382357
Yeah, the SS thing works because it usually brings you to the night battle node, where you only have a BB and a CA to worry about.

1 or 2 kills?

>>12382363
Thanks, but it was difficult for me, I had to scrap rare ships or event rewards since they probably won't be quest related.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm24253691

want badly.

>>12382363
It is time to let some of your ships go.
This event I have retired
1. all dupe subs
2. kusou class
3. tenryuu tatsuda
4. fubuwho
5. asashio
6. choukai
7. houshou

>>12382339
>Hamakaze #3
I know that feeling. Can't even justify using them for food because I want their radars

Just cleared E6:

Sparkled to 54+ success rate 11/14 ~ 79%
Not Sparkled success rate 15/54 ~ 27.8%

Sparkle your ships losers

>>12382343
You were really lucky. It took me over 130 tries to finish this map.

>>12382372
But your sample sizes are rather small, especially your sparkled runs.

>>12382367
The answer is always 2.

Why wont E-4 hime just die ;_;

>>12382378
Better just give up now.

>>12382375
I don't consider myself lucky since KTKM never delivered, seems to work for everyone else except me. Had to bruteforce E-6 with strong ships and damecon since my core guys were locked in AL.

>>12382372
no sparkles, no support
256 damage in 41 runs

sparkled + sparkled support
2 kills + some chip in 9 runs

>>12382379
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I just can't get deal 600 fucking damage to her.

>>12382378
What the fuck are you doing? My net resource use after clearing E-1 to E-5 is only around 10k for each type so how are you down to the thousands already?

>>12382371
I just use her as food. Had no use for her radar as I have tons of T33s. Still no Yahagi, Kiyo and the whale.

>>12382382
Are you the guy who sent all of his super ships to AL by mistake?

>>12382384
Take a screen of your fleet and equip.
Also, are you using support, etc.?

>>12382367
1 kill

>>12382383
>>12382372
Are they still doubter?

>>12382389
That's right.

>>12382387
>Still no Yahagi, Kiyo and the whale.
Taigei: first & last S kill in E-3
Kiyoshimo: 3rd
Yahagi: 6th
E-3 is too awesome for me. Now if only E-4 & E-5 give me a yandere...

>>12382368
>>12382370

I played this game like what this game is called: Kantai Collection.

1. I usually scrap dupes,
2. Why? Yamashiro was my first BBV, although I can't stand her "sister, sister" rant, she's a great help, I'm keeping her
3. No reason to scrap the 2 expedition leaders, right?
4.5. Again, why?
6. Choukai was my first CA. She dish out a lot of damage before I had my Yamashiro.
7. She's not exactly useful, but she's a CVL. She may come in handy in future event similar to this one.

How do I level up ships in 5-4? You guys said it's better than 3-2 but half the time my ships gets hit to red before the boss.

>>12382394
But you have KTKM
She is the only one that is important.
The highest I hit is 377. I have no idea how some people have screenshot with her damage at the high 600

>>12382399
Don't reason with kuso. It's useless.

>>12382402
She never did anything, not even once. Pretorp Ta-chan or Wo-chan? 0 times. Attacking the correct BB Hime? She choked instead.

>>12382401
Do the first node only. And you should expect to take damage there, it isn't fun and games like 3-2.

>>12382398
Oh god. S rank gave me another Nagara. Now I got 7 Nagara drops. This is bullshit.

>>12382407
>Do the first node only
Really? I thought you were supposed to clear the map.

As for damage, I asked before and people have said that it's minimal. I'm running exp2&4 and I'm still losing buckets. I guess I'll just run the first node then.

So I just cleared E4. What am I in for for E5?

>>12382412
Compass trolling.

>>12382412
Mandatory sub node first and then possibly 1 or 2 night battles before the boss.

>>12382412
RNG bullshit.

>>12382399
>2. Why? Yamashiro was my first BBV, although I can't stand her "sister, sister" rant, she's a great help, I'm keeping her
>3. No reason to scrap the 2 expedition leaders, right?
>4.5. Again, why?
>6. Choukai was my first CA. She dish out a lot of damage before I had my Yamashiro.
>7. She's not exactly useful, but she's a CVL.
The miniscule resources save from tenryuu isnt worth it. I dont use them, Yuubari is all I need and she can fight too.
For the rest, I have no slot and I dont use them.
If you gave me 200slots then sure I will keep them but I only have 110. I actually dont keep dupes and I am at 104/110 right now. I am up to 4pages of destroyers right now.

>>12382412
Sendai's favorite.

>>12382411
Clearing the map is for HQ level.

>>12382378
Did you use sanshiki? How much of your escort fleet is using sanshiki?

>>12382414
>>12382416
>>12382417
>>12382418
I thought I can take it easy somewhat since E4 was quite cruel on me.

>>12382356
See >>12382338

>>12382414
>>12382417
Night battle and subs giving me more grief so far than the compass

>>12382423
>>12382390
>>12382378
im using 2BB 2CV 2DD boss support and im level 71

>>12382424
You can retreat / F5 if you're taken to A node. Route from B is piece of cake. Plus, you don't have to choke your fleet with sanshiki since the boss isn't piece of land.

>>12382427
It seems that equipping a radar, best being T33, have quite a high chance of sending you south, which means no night batol. It's about 40% for me, but it's good enough.

>>12382428
That RJ is screaming "just kill me already".

>>12382429
Should I roll with the same fleet/equipment setup from E3 or should I give my BBs AP shells in exchange for radars for additional crits?

>>12382428
Your Suzuya is lacking

>>12382430
I've read about that. Do you give it on your second fleet or on the first fleet? I have mine on Haruna.

>>12382435
She's my highest level CA that ain't Mogami or AL locked.

>>12382436
It's on your escort fleet, that's why it's best to put the T33 on your DDs. Your CA(V)s are carrying other better equipments, so they can't use better radars.

>>12382428
Change the loadout on your 2nd fleet's ships to double attack.

>>12382430
>>12382441
Well, I'm 4/8 for B route with the radars on my 2nd fleet.

>>12382441
Guess I'll swap that improved Type 13 on one of my DDs for that Type 33 on Haruna. Though I'll probably just give the BBs AP shells then give their radars on the DD/CA (since the other one is a Type 14). I'm not confident about AP shell cutin in daytime though.

Is there a cheap, effective recipe for Yamato seaplanes? Wiki only shows the horrid 20/20/250/250 one.

>>12382441
Does it have to be flagship?

>>12382447
10/10/20/20 or 20/10/10/20 with BBV or CV

>>12382445
I've had Kongou AP cut-in on a DD for 3 damage. It could be because the DD had low armor, or high evasion. Cut-in on BBs or Wo gives at least 50.

>>12382447
>20/20/250/250
It's time to move to superior JP wiki

>>12382428
Change all of the torps for radars. Lineup order should be DDs at top and the two CAVs on the bottom. Only equip 2 main guns. Equipping 3 will equally distribute your chance to Double attack or Cut-in. Meaning both can fail and you'll perform a single attack instead.

>>12382419

If you really talking about usability, there is only 30~40 ship that can stay in your fleet.

>>12382453
i have no small radars except for the one on kongou

>>12382448
No it doesn't. I love putting it on Poi. I also don't know whether stacking those radars give a high chance of going to node B.

>>12382451
Damn, and I was hoping equipping AP shells can at least help my ships score clean kills on Yorkie and as much as possible, I don't want to use support fleet for the final kill.

>>12382447
20/10/10/20

It is quite rare though so you will most often see it bundled into other recipes like the one you posted.

>>12382453
Main + 2 sub is double attack.

>>12382459
Oh it does. I have Kongou cut-in on E-3's boss for 150 once. A lucky crit on double attack can also turn her orange instantly. As long as the boss isn't an installation, it's alright to go AP for more damage. Bringing the boss down to orange or red (or even outright kill it) can prepare your escort fleet for night battle, incase shit happens.

"Skilled Carrier-based Aircraft Maintenance Personnel" is pretty neat for carriers like Hiryuu.

I wish there is a way to get more of them.

>>12382467
Unryuu's 5-2 quest appears to give another.

>>12382465
Guess that's AP shell in exchange for the radars on my BB. Thanks for the info.

>>12382456
I guess you don't have any Boilers then. Just leave their 3rd slot open then. It's better for them to double attack than having a mixed chance with a cut in. Especially when Airfield Hime's immune to torpedoes.

Where can I grind my Unryuu to 50 quickly? I haven't unlocked anything past 5-3.

>>12382472
Don't forget that reaching the boss is your main goal. If trading a radar for an AP fails LOS check, it's better to go radar.

Just spent my first money on Kancolle after 11 months. Time to buy some more space.

I am getting a Yuugumo at E4. Should I be happy?

>>12382476
SUPER SPECIAL SECRET PLAN CODENAME 3-2-A

>>12382479

Now is a good time. You can get 50% more points if you buy 3000 points and above.

>>12382476
Unlock 5-4. Casual grinding to 50 on the first node gets a CV to 50 in 2 days.

>>12382485
I bought 3000 points, but I didn't get any. I did it with webmoney. I saw that big red thing there saying that there would be more as well though.

>>12382476
Unlock 5-4. Casual grinding on the first node gets a CV to 50 in 2 days.

>>12382488
Think you have to purchase points with credit card to get the bonus.

>>12382476
1k/sortie
Even with fatigue count into it, you can do 4/hour.
All this for 2bar of fuel and zero ammo cost.

>>12382488
>>12382492
Ah yeah, it says there I didn't even read it.
Yeah, you need to buy with credit card to get 50% for free. Since I don't have one, I'll have to be happy with the normal amount.

>>12382488

I bought 3000 points as well a few days ago and get 4500 points. I was using debit card.

>>12382474
You know double attack isn't 100%, right? Your posts sound like you're avoiding mixed because it lowers the chance for ANY artillery spot attack to trigger.

>>12382499
That's what I get for being stupid I guess.
Oh well, it's still a pretty great for everyone but stupid people like me that don't read ahead enough.

>>12382505

I didn't read fully too, but the only payment method I had was the debit card. I am just being lucky I guess.

>>12382499
Do you need to use vpn method or will cookie method works?
I dont have vpn access with me right now and is still promotion still going on?

>>12382510
Cookie works, I did it like 4 days ago.

5 days left, will they extend this event?

>>12382514
>5 days.
You mean 11 days.

>>12382514
It's until the 28th.

>>12382126
>>12382275
I love Ooi. She picked the right one.

>>12382510

The promotion is still here. In my case, the registration cannot be done with vpn on. I registered my card without vpn. The funny thing is, when I was purchasing the point, I need to turn the vpn back on for it to work.

>>12382516
>>12382517
Shit, I've been in this room too long.. my bad.

>>12382519
Total costs. Yes, 9 buckets remaining.

>>12382519
Did you use support for chipping as well?

>>12382520
>>12382513
Oh in my case, I already have my card registered. Going to try to purchase 1k for additional slots.

What bets formation yasen node preboss e6?

>>12382525
You lacked "Number of BB hime for last kill : 1" there.

>>12382526
For the experimental attempts at the start I sometimes had boss support only and sometimes had none, but once I got the plan down I used double support every time. No main fleet sparkles except from pvp and Ooi naturally sparkling herself, but I sparkled the support flagships. It took 107 sorties.

>>12382527
Come on, if you pay 3000 yen you get one and a half slots for free. If you have the card, then it's totally worth it

>>12382525
>Damecons consumed: 12
Ouch.
This is way too much. Did you buy extra? I only have 11damecons and 2goddess(from quests) and I have been playing since last year with all the quests done.

>>12382527
>>12382532

Or alternatively, a slot and 5 rings.

sigh
she was on 18/600 health too.
now my carriers have no planes

Finally he comes back to save the event.

>>12382530
Here you go.

>>12382537
You still have the whole months of august to go.
Just spam ex6 and ex35

I think the game is telling me to stop playing. Holy shit that is beyond unreal.

>>12382533
No purchases. Luckily, they were all the regular kind, even Junyou was advancing in red with a goddess at the end since I ran out of regulars.

>>12382545
Better come back later. RNG is not in the mood right now.

>>12382536
Not him, but I have a really hard time deciding what I will do with the other 2000 yen. 2 rings and 3 damecons or other stuff for 600 yen or expanding the dock by another 10 or getting a third or even 4th dock.
How much worth are those repair stations really?

>>12382502
I'm talking about his DDs in Night battle. It's also E-4 so going mixed is a really bad idea.

>>12382532
>>12382536
Where is the pastebin to buy DMM point with your credit card at the OP? Was it removed?

>>12382545
The game is telling me to find the person responsible for this map, kidnap the whole family and shoot them infront of him one by one then feed him raw meat of his family and set him free naked in another country after that.

>>12382561
You gotta look at guides, it's in the imgur album.
It's also on the English wiki.

>>12382545
I'm laughing like crazy right now, it feels good to see others struggle when you're done. No hard feelings.

>>12382558

You haven't expand the dock? It is the most valuable cash upgrade in this game. Having 4 docks in this game goes a long way.

>>12382545
Look like a no sparkle fleet here. Sure got raped hard.

>>12382561

You don't need to go through all that trouble as on the pastebin. Just register it normally.

Is there an LOS requirement for E6 boss node or is it just random?

>>12382558
>>12382570
>4docks
More like the worst investment ever.
Additional ship slots is all that matter if you are a collector.
Dock is useless when you bucket everything anyway.

>>12382574

Random. Don't waste your slots with radars and saiuns.

>>12382574

110-120

>>12382571
Full sparkle. In fact 3 of them are at 85 since I had to resparkle them. This is my first run on the last kill, and it doesn't want to let me look at that beautiful double hime death machine. I didn't even know subs in line abreast could do that.

>>12382576
You'll only spam buckets in event.

>>12382574
I have 4 saiuns and its still fucking dead end.

>>12382570
I'm not the type of guy that really repairs a lot.
My playstyle relied heavily on stupid grinding of 3-2 and well, time. I tried ranking, which was essentially just banging my head against 5-4 all day for the entire month and I didn't repair much there either.
I don't do sub dailies since february either and I haven't leveld any ships outside of the ranking month either.

>>12382576
I only really use the ships I like, but I'd feel bad about scrapping completely new event rewards. On the other hand, I just have so many leveled girls or girls that I still need to finish quests that I can't/don't want to scrap them either.
Guess I'll just have to wait and see.

While chipping the health boss in e-6, I finally got the whale. But in exchange, 1 damcon has been used. Now I have 3 full kills in the boss and 7 repair team, 2 repair goddess left in my inventory.
Sparkling really helps. 2/2 wen to boss, first one scratch the boss health and second one kills it,rank s.

>>12382583
What route, yasen?

>>12382590
yeah, preboss yasen.

>>12382430
It's random. Fucking random. R-a-n-d-o-m.
>>12382494
Fatigue is no problem. You can easily do at least 25 sorties per hour with the same S rank you'll get waiting for fatigue. ASW formation gives some silly bonuses.

You can heal an entire fleet and one more when you go to bed with 4 docks and Akashi. That's 7 buckets saved.

This is getting dangerous.

>>12382573
>>12382564
What the?
No confirmation screen or any security question on my CC?
Holy shit, no wonder people get jew into paying for this especially impulse buyer.

>>12382596
Is there anywhere to delete your CC details?

>>12382576

I agree that ship slots is good. We are bucketing everything now because it is the event. Off event we probably want to save those buckets for the rainy days.

All in all, you got your point, and I agree with you mostly. Just that in my experience, 4 docks relieved a lot of my stress that I had early in my game, which is why I was suggesting buying the docks.

>>12382596
Love needs no security questions you fool!

>>12382599
Anyway*

sparkling to 85 really does give results doesnt it, getting close to 100 total sorties.

>>12382599
>>12382602
I am going to keep the extra 3500 after the ship slot expansion.
Doesnt feel right to me to ring more than 1girl even though ktkamisama did good this event.

>>12382538
Almost exactly my composition, heh.

>>12382596

Welcome to online purchase! Actually, the first page that you opened in the new window is already the confirmation page. As far as I remember, online purchase don't have security question e.g. steam.

>>12382607
Well you are using a CA fleet, dont expect to get a free pass on node A.
This compsition on the other hand 1CLT 2BB 1CV 2CVL will give you the free pass.

>>12382607
You're using K1 Nachi and Ashigara, and Shoukaku instead of Taihou or Kaga.

It's your own fault for being an unprepared retard.

Never had this happen before. Do I need VPN now?

>>12382616

you have no idea how many times I've tried that combination and failed to reach the boss most of the time. Absolutely no idea how many times.

>>12382609

Same here haha. I am keeping those 3500 points. I want to upgrade the ships but I just can't get over the idea of "marrying a ship".

>>12382618

Myoukou, Haguro, Tone, Chikuma and the other standard carriers are already used. All other compositions gets destroyed at north node.

>>12382619
You're banned.

>>12382593
I dont have that many DD to throw at the map.
I am already using my main fleet to take in all the heavily damaged DD while getting a strong escort fleet to wipe the subs on the first turn for unryuu to score the mvp.

>>12382625

I also got to E-3 before there was barely any information about it on wikiwiki, so I cannot be blamed for using my best ships on AL and MI.

>>12382538
>double line for preboss
Really now.

>>12382631
Lineahead maste race?
Mai nigga

>>12382625
The fact that you used all 4 of your elite CAs on easy shit like MI only further illustrates what I was saying about your lack of foresight and intelligence.

>>12382619
B&. You won't need VPN anymore.

>>12382635
>>12382630

I breezed through E-2 by the way. Once again, little to no information on E-3 on the wikiwiki by the time I got there.

>>12382631
Works if you have tanky ships, which won't work for many of us.

>>12382626
Please crawl back the whatever hole you came out from. You don't even know where it appears.

>>12382636
Do you moon?

>>12382619
F5 and bot abbuse.

Event done. 磯風？知らない子ですね

>>12382644
>Event done

Where is Isokaze?

>>12382619

It seems like registration got problem. I haven't had this message before. Try to register again or something.

>>12382644
There's still e-6 waiting for you, teitoku!

>>12382639
Tanky ships get rekt by the hime as easily as everyone else.

>>12382646
Making up ships now, huh?

>>12382648
But finally dark Kaga can rest in peace. That's enough for me.

>>12382630
m spoiled the entire event for us before anyone had even beaten E-1. If you didn't save any of your good ships for the last map, it's your own fault. Either tough it out and keep trying or give up.

I had a visit by the police just now, apparently the neighbor thinks some domestic violence is occurring in my place but its all just thanks to this fucking E6 run. motherfucking shitty map won't let me pass preboss. fuck you dev, fuck you god, fuck you luck.

>>12382649
Actually, squishy ships don't get wrecked by hime at all. The tanky ones get completely and utterly destroyed though.

>>12382652
>dark Kaga

Don't be like the idiots from /a/ and wiki. She's Yorktown.

>>12382644
What about Isokaze, she's waiting to rescue her from the grip of the abyssal himes?

>>12382653

I have Yamato, Nagato and Mutsu. I didnt know there was gonna be a north node Princess that demolishes everything. Thats hilarious to think that Heavy Cruisers were going to be needed for the last map before this event started...even Torperdo Cruisers

>>12382649
It rarely happens in my case, it's mostly the CVL.

>>12382656
Implying the Abyss girls weren't designed to resemble Akagi and Kaga, who also got special Midway lines.

>>12382654
>the neighbor thinks some domestic violence is occurring in my place
You've been abusing your shipfu and we all want you to help you to stop

All these unfounded rage.
I wish the devs reopen some of the maps like fall2013 with old mechanics and no night battle gears. Then all the new teitoku will taste real despair. E6 is pretty much fall E5 with no regen.

Ficking E-6, I wanted to stop yesterday, but I come back anyway. Time to make it stop, once and for all.
LSC, here I come. I won't get hotels, but at least I'll get rid of my resources.

Ushio's E-6 strategy.

>>12382656
The idiots on the wiki call her Yorktown. Don't be like them, she's an abyssal vessel. Aircraft carrier princess to be exact.

>>12382653

and that would be even funnier if you thought Akitsu Maru was actually going to be needed at all for E-4.

>>12382665

night battle gear is useless when LOS requirements are steep at 110-120. especially when you have to stack Reppuu and Saiun on carriers.

>>12382665
>pretty much fall E5 with no regen
Its the shitty new lock mechanism which fucks up this time.

>>12382659
>Heavy Cruisers
They are pretty overrated unless you go with the crazy yasen route.
Who need them when you have our goddess and savior KTKM.
KTKM 1 - BB Hime 0

I'm considering using Myoukou + Aoba for E6 so they can double attack in the day and cut-in at night with 2 red 1 seaplane 1 torp.

How screwed am I?

>>12382669
She was useful, but I wouldn't call it needed.

And here's Pyon's E-6 guide.

>>12382676

she's a godsend when you can use 2 Heavy Cruisers on the second fleet for type 3 shell, instead of 4 Destroyers just to have a chance to avoid the submarine node.

>>12382627
My unremodeled girls with 2 crap asw pieces were doing 30-40 non crit damage to flag So in head-on. There is no way you don't have spare DDs, that's simply impossible.

>>12382619
Changed to another CC and it worked. It doesn't let you change your CC info if you're not using a Japan IP.

>>12382674
I've been running tonnes of run with that comp but shit never sends me to J route at that fucking shitty preboss carriers is shitting me up by targeting just one ship over and over for all my 102 runs.

I'm not event closing to half bar chipped at all and my resources and shits were all gone.

>>12382683
Too troublesome to unequip and reequip all the ASW gears. Take it easy, I have another 11days to go anyway. At this rate, all my CL and DD will be lvl99 soon.

>>12382680
But that's the point, you don't really need to avoid the submarine node. Chance to go south is nice, but not needed to clear the map.
You can clear it with your E-3 fleet just fine, it will just take some more runs because of compass-trolling on the north-route.

>>12382696
> Too troublesome to unequip and reequip all the ASW gears.
You don't understand. They were doing it at 0 fatigue. I've never swapped DDs 'till they got remodels, and then just swapped new unremodeled ones.

>>12382697

"compass-trolling"

there you go, thats why Akitsu Maru is useful.

E6 wasn't as despair inducing, probably because it didn't play this bgm.

>>12382666 here.
2 Kongous.
1 Akitsumaru.
And now this.
I'm kinda glad I said "fuck you" to E-6.

>>12382706
What's so nice about a second Musashi?

>>12382701

Missing some night battle cut-in and compass trolling.

>>12382709
Did I say it's the second one?

>>12382712
I was trying to mock you in a teasing way.

Anyone from Imagawa having server problems or that's just my connection playing tricks on me?

>>12382711
Ahaha, that brings back memories. That picture of Yahagi too.

>>12382706
Except Isokaze cant be crafted even in LSC.
Your loss.
Would be even funnier if the boss HP bar is fully depleted and you just gave up.

>>12382716
Oh, I see. I'm too dense to notice intricate subtleties like this. Sorry, I ruined it.

>>12382578
I pass H node 10 times now and I only move toward dead end node.

>>12382725
It's okay, I'm usually in the same boat as you.

Look who old grandma lenfried decided to cosplay as.
I guess we know who is the Sanae of kancolle right now.

>>12382733
Slut

>>12382674

the problem with night battle route is because it is indeed crazy. Only letting Aircraft Carrier Princess have one shelling round helps a great deal.

>>12382733
But Sanae is a good girl.

>>12382675

Myoukou is amazing when you get her second remodel.

>>12382723
My boss HP bar is fully depleted.
So are my resources.
And my motivation.

>>12382752
You're a real fag then.
I beat the E-4 Fall hime that much twice and failed to get her until the third time.

>>12382683
Holy shit.
You are right. They are still hitting subs and dodging everything even when fatigued.
How the fuck is this possible? Did they not include fatigue debuff for combined fleet.

>>12382756

you do know type 3 shell doubles damage against installation type bosses right. Battleship Symbiotic Princess has no weakness.

>>12382764
Combined fleet ASW formation gives some really fucking silly bonuses, that's the only way I see it.

>>12382539
It's not necessary since you are already showing your HQ level.

>>12382778
Some still believe that HQ level scaling ends at 80 while it actually goes up to 105 in this event.
