Spring 2018 Food Collection Mini-Event

The Food Collection Mini-Event is a mini-event that began on the 15th of May 2018 and ended on the 13th of June 2018. This event has been used as a filler event as there was no Spring 2018 Event, the KanColle Dev Team working on implementing Phase 2. This event involves collecting Rice, Umeboshi, Nori, and Tea to make various meal sets, a bit like what has been done in the Naval District Saury Festival.

This mini-event can also double as a tie-in collaboration with the Mitsukoshi 5th Anniversary Event which is also selling Kancolle themed Onigiri and Umeboshi.

How to Obtain

In this mini-event, you will be collecting a total of up to 4 items across all the normal water map locations. These items consist of the following:

1. Rice
2. Umeboshi
3. Nori
4. Tea

You will be using these items to make food that will be needed to complete quests and to exchange for various resources and other items over the duration of the mini-event.

To be able to locate the food items you will need to go to various maps that drop them. In order to increase the drop rates of these food items, you will need to organize a fleet in the following conditions:

• CL, CT, and AV to be placed in the flagship position (position 1 in the composition),
• DD and DE to be placed in the Escort position (position 2-6 in the composition),
• Using Skilled Lookouts, Searchlights, and Rations will also increase the drop rates.

It's been confirmed that an A or S rank is needed for a chance of these food items to drop.

Be advised, it is possible to Overfarm the items resulting in the items dropping less, if they began to appear less frequently, please go to another location to collect food.

Drop Locations

All food drop locations are located in the boss nodes unless otherwise stated. Drop locations include all limited-time drop locations and the final limited-time drop update as of June 9, 2018.

Tips

• When using Battle Rations plan carefully what map you use them on. It's recommended to use them on maps where you're fleet will only travel 2 regular nodes before reaching the boss node. (I.E: 1-4, 2-2, 2-3, 2-5, 3-2, 4-2, 5-4 to name a few).
  • Using them on maps with 3 nodes before the boss will risk having the ration be consumed
• Since rice is an item you are bound to collect in very large amounts, it's quite possible to reach 99 of them over this mini-event resulting in reaching its hard-cap. Thus making any rice you gather after that useless
  • Consider making some rice into Onigiri so that you don't waste any additional rice you gain while collecting food
• Always remember to cook all your food before the end of the mini-event as food will disappear once the event ends.
• Houshou Dinner Tickets will last for some time before they expire following the event. So weigh your options before deciding on which meal ticket item you want to earn.
