As written in the Smoke Template, {{TextGlow|'''Fleet Flagship Luck'''|black|text-colour=lime|glow-size=2px}} and {{TextGlow|'''Smoke improvement levels'''|black|text-colour=cyan|glow-size=2px}} affects smoke proc rates. Clearly the better your smoke generators are, the less taxing is on your Luck mods. We provide some calculations for Newbies and Fossils, with the assumption that you need to guarantee Medium smoke.  

The '''flagship luck''', the '''number of smoke generators''', and '''generator improvement levels''' affects smoke proc rates.

*Hence, the better the smoke generators are, the less taxing on Luck it is.  

*Some calculations are provided for newbies and veterans, with the assumption to guarantee medium smoke.

*In most cases, it is assumed that [[Yamato]] is the flagship, as she is a common choice for dire situations.

We write "you need A/B {{Luck}}" to mean that "by Yumemi's formula you need A {{Luck}}, by Xe's formula you need B {{Luck}}".

''The luck range is determined by using either Yumemi's for Xe's formulas respectively.

This means you have a the Smoke Kai {{Star}}+2 from 2023 Summer E1H and the Smoke Kai from Miyuki K2 quest. If you only use these two Smoke Kai it takes 122/114 {{Luck}} to guarantee Medium smoke.  

This mean that at best, 1 Smoke Kai was obtained from {{Q|F115}}, and two base Smoke were crafted and {{MaxStar}}.  

 

*In this case the flagship needs 37 to 54 {{Luck}} (a relatively big challenge).  

 

Hence we add an extra Smoke {{MaxStar}} to the mix. It takes 26/29 {{Luck}}.  

{{TextGlow|'''For fossils, please get both Smoke Kais and one Smoke +10, as well as Flagship Luck ≥26/≥29.'''|black|text-colour=red|glow-size=2px}}

*At 29 {{Luck}} there is 9% chance of small smoke.

You don't have Smoke Kai from Event, so we assume you will use Miyuki's Smoke Kai and two Smoke {{MaxStar}}. You will need 37/54 {{Luck}}. A big challenge.  

*Get Yamato to 37 {{Luck}}, this works for the first formula, and also crosses a threshold in the second formula.

*If a spare slot is remaining, an additional base Smoke can be used, then only 10/17 {{Luck}} is needed.

Be prepared and get 1 to 2 Smoke {{MaxStar}}, and even 1 base Smoke, for such cases.

*Well at 29 {{Luck}} you have 9% of Small smoke. You can pray to RNG.  

This means that 2 Smoke Kai were obtained.

*Get your main Yamato to 37 {{Luck}}. This works for the first formula, and also crosses a threshold in the second formula.  

*When using 2 Smoke Kai, it takes 122 to 114 {{Luck}} to guarantee medium smoke.  

*If you can spare a slot, plug a Smoke {{Star}}+0. Then you need 10/17 {{Luck}}. Perfectly doable.

*Hence, adding an extra Smoke {{MaxStar}} to the mix reduce the requirement to 26/29 {{Luck}}.  

Depending on the situation you may use any of the three above. Be prepared and {{TextGlow|'''get two Smoke {{MaxStar}} and one Smoke {{Star}}+0'''|black|text-colour=red|glow-size=2px}}.
