| This is a guide to leveling your ship girls effectively through sorties. [[Experience and Rank|Experience (XP)]] increases the level of ships, which leads to increases in [[Tutorial: FAQ#Equipment.2C_Stats_and_Remodels|Evasion]], [[Line of Sight|LOS]], and [[Tutorial: FAQ#Equipment.2C_Stats_and_Remodels|ASW]] stats, as well as passive increases in accuracy. Leveling ships can also unlock [[Remodel|remodels]] at higher levels. | | This is a guide to leveling your ship girls effectively through sorties.

| + | *'''Notes:''' |
| + | **This method is essentially identical to 4-5 with slightly stronger subs and more XP |
| + | **Taking more than 3 Destroyers will cause you to route to A instead. You can however take as many Destroyer Escorts as you like |
| + | **Put the Ship you want to level into Flagship Position, this method is suitable for all ship types |
| + | **Set up your remaining Ships for OASW attacks to clear out Submarines before their opening Torpedo Salvo |
| + | **If your Flagship is capable of ASW attacks as well, give it your strongest ASW synergy to ensure it achieves MVP more frequently |
| + | **A BB will enable a second shelling phase if you struggle to disable the Submarines before the Ending Torpedo Phase |
| + | **It is recommended to use DE for the escort ships. Their low consumption, repair times and OASW requirements make them prime candidates |
| + | **As this is a Submarine node, it only takes small amounts of fuel per sortie |
| + | **End the sortie after one Node |
