Ships that are extremely important to collect ASAP due to them being required for the important quests that unlock your second, third, and fourth fleets. Getting them should be a high priority.

Similar to the Sendai-class, Myoukou is rarer and the other 3 are much more common. She's best farmed in World 2: 2-1, 2-2 B, all over 2-3.

| {{Ship/Banner|Akashi/|small=true}} || Extremely important, and the sooner she's acquired the better. She grants the player access to Akashi's Improvement Arsenal, which allows the improvement of equipment, and her ability to gradually repair lightly damaged ships greatly aids Instant Repair conservation efforts. She should be immediately placed in the player's PVP fleet when acquired to get her to Kai, where she gains the ability to repair an additional ship and a boost to her Improvement success rate.
 +
 
 +
She drops in the boss node of 1-5, 2-5 and 3-5. The easiest place to farm her is in 1-5, but it requires an HQ level of at least '''50''' Since 1-5 is the best place to focus level DD/CL, she can hopefully be encountered while training your light ships.

At this point directions for where to collect specific key ships, if they're hard to find, is also given out, as it is feasible to begin target farming them. Construction is 100% not recommended at this point as farming gets you a better chance at ships per resources spent and gets you additional experience, too.

Don't let that discourage you, though - they're still amazing picks. Ayanami has a much higher starting luck, but her remodel level is a lot higher too.

### Battleships ###

=== Battleships ===

Much to do here. It's possible for events to call for as many as 4 FBB in one fleet, and quests for the earlier mentioned Shoukaku Kai Ni and Zuikaku Kai Ni require both Ise Kai and Hyuuga Kai. You do not need to Kai Ni them all - Kai and max modernized is fine for most.
 +
 
 +
Since standard maps are very restrictive on how many battleships you can use in a fleet, I recommend leveling many of them in PVP.

All are useful and with solid stats - and while they're perfectly serviceable at Kai if experience is short in supply, their Kai Ni gives a good boost in stats. All four should be leveled, as events sometimes need you to run 4 FBB at one time.

| {{Ship/Banner|Ise/Kai|small=true}}</br>{{Ship/Banner|Hyuuga/Kai|small=true}} || Still great BBV. While they're slow and they're behind Kongou-class Kai Ni in raw stats, their class allows them to be used in Transport Combined Fleets and their ability to carry seaplane bombers and seaplane fighters comes in useful. They should both at least be acquired and Kai'd, not only for potential use in events but to allow access to a second Prototype Flight Deck Catapult via quests that require them.

|-
 +
| {{Ship/Banner|Nagato/Kai Ni|small=true}} || Extremely useful at Kai Ni due to her special ability to activate the Nagato-class Full Broadside special attack (often called "Nagato Touch), potentially granting the player the ability to punch through very powerful enemy boss fleets. She also has the niche ability to equip all landing crafts and tanks.
 +
 
 +
As an extreme downside, she both requires a Blueprint and a '''very''' high level (88). If you don't expect to have a Blueprint for her, leveling her can be put on the backburner for now.
 +
|-
 +
| {{Ship/Banner|Mutsu/Kai Ni|small=true}} || Very similar to Nagato, but slightly worse in that she has less Luck, is historical less often, and is unable to equip landing crafts. She's much more common than Nagato, so she can be leveled in place of Nagato if Nagato cannot be found.
