− | *The classical compositions tend to vary, with '''2FBB 4CV''', '''1FBB 5CV''', and '''2CV 1CVL 3BB''' all being relatively common, travelling to the boss via A-D-E-N | + | *(To be updated.) |
− | :*The 2CV+1CVL route allows you to bring a slow fleet
| + | *As of the [[Game Updates/2019/January 22nd|January 22nd]] update, the [[Southern War Princess]] has retained her buff from the [[Winter 2019 Event]]. Her escorts have been slightly weakened to compensate for this. |
− | :*Alternatively, reinforcement expansions allow you to increase the speed of a slow BB to fast, eliminating the need to bring a CVL
| + | **The Submarine in her escort has been changed from an Elite variant to a non-Elite variant. |
− | :*Remember that remodeled Littorio-Class FBBs, Nagato-Class BBs, and Yamato-class BBs can carry seaplane fighters to offer supplementary air power in exchange for carrying an AP shell
| + | *If you are planning on clearing any quests that require you to clear 5-5 with an A/S-Rank, it is recommended that you attempt these quests after clearing 5-5 for the month, as the post-clear boss compositions are significantly less dangerous than the pre-clear comps. The fleet composition restrictions for most of these quests mean that your fleet will face some difficulty in defeating the pre-clear comps. |
− | *There is a sub at the boss node. Getting S rank at the boss is possible, but not required. Should killing the submarine be required (as in a few quests), OASW is recommended, and the presence of a CVL should be evaluated as well.
| + | **This is especially true if said quests require 2DDs, as DDs will face difficulty in dealing any significant damage to the pre-clear boss comps during the daytime battle. |
− | *An alternate route to the boss via '''A-F-G-N''' is also possible, and requires exactly three submarines (more than three subs offroutes to H). [[Ro-500]], [[I-401]], and [[I-58]] (all remodelled) are all recommended here for their night-battle CI capability. | |
− | :*This system offers guaranteed routing (compared to the random offroute chance of A-D-E-N), reduced repair and resupply costs (Re-Classes target submarines), and a greater chance of surviving Re-Elite's torpedo (by forcing it to shoot at only the heaviest ships available)
| |
− | :*On the other hand, it can sometimes struggle to kill the boss, and may require node support.
| |
− | :*'''3BB+3SS''' is an older composition, using the heaviest battleships available.
| |
− | :*Fighter proficiency now allows a '''3SS+BB+2CV(B)''' fleet to take AS, but may require both [[Shokaku]] and [[Zuikaku]]
| |
− | *This map is one the most difficult extra operations, [[Sparkle|flagship sparkling]] of [[Support Expedition]]s is highly recommended should they be needed. Sparkling the main fleet may also be useful should difficulties arise. | |
