− | This article is meant to be a primer to get you started on preparing for [[Events]]. | + | This article is meant to be a brief primer to get you started on preparing for [[Events]]. Please refer to the main articles in each section for more in-depth help. Generally, Admirals should be ready to tackle Casual difficulty after about 2-4 weeks of play. |
| + | |
| + | =General Tips= |
| + | |
| + | * There is no need to rush the event. C2 gives plenty of time for people to complete the event. |
| + | * If your fleet is struggling, you can wait for the [[Friend Fleet]]s to arrive. These generally make the event easier. |
| + | ** FFs may not be implemented for every map. |
| + | ** Some FFs may be added late into the event. |
| + | * It is good to set your event targets early to prepare your fleets. For example: |
| + | ** Do you want to just finish the event? |
| + | ** Do you want to earn all the new girls? |
| + | ** Do you want to farm maps to complete your collection? |
| + | ** Do you want certain equipment rewards? |
| + | * Newer Admirals may want to put off starting the event until at least the Extra Operations are released. This allows the frontliners to tease out the optimal strategies. |

| + | The bare minimum fleet required to clear an event on Casual/Easy is '''7DD 1CL 3CA/V 2FBB 2CV 2CVL'''. This covers all [[Combined Fleet]] compositions but does not have the capacity to deal with ship locking. Thus if you intend to complete an event on Medium/Hard, you will either need substitutes or duplicates. Refer to the main article for more details on high-tier ship girls to help you determine who to focus on. |
| + | |
| + | ===Casual/Easy=== |
| + | * As a general rule of thumb, the minimum requirements for girls should be: |
| + | ** Casual: Max modernisation |
| + | ** Easy: Base remodel, max modernisation |
| + | * New Admirals '''should not''' bother with trying to preemptively level girls for potential historical routing/bonuses. |
| + | ** Many of these girls are just average and it is ill advised to waste your time and resources on speculation. |
| + | ** All round high-tier girls will still serve you well through brute force. |
| + | * While the bare minimum amount of DD for a TCF is 7, you can just focus on 3 strong ones to start off with. |
| + | ** Only the 3DDs in the TCF escort will be doing the bulk of the fighting. |
| + | * Having one of the CVLs be [[Zuihou|Zuihou Kai Ni B]] will be useful for supporting a TCF. |
| + | * CAVs are generally only useful in events if you have the [[:Category:Seaplane_Fighters|SPFs]] to back them up. Otherwise, leveling powerful combat CAs would be better. |
| + | |
| + | ===Medium=== |
| + | * As a general rule of thumb, your girls should be level 60-70+ before attempting Medium. Ideally, they should have their Kai Ni as well. |
| + | * You will need to take into consideration ship locking when planning your event fleet. The amount of substitutes or duplicates you will require vary from event to event. As a general rule of thumb: |
| + | ** Small (3 maps): |
| + | ** Medium (4-5 maps): |
| + | ** Large (6+ maps): |
| + | * You should not be bothering trying to preemptively level girls for potential historical routing/bonuses. '''Unless you have already built up your core fleet'''. |
| + | * You want a wider array of ship types to meet the routing requirements and strategies. |
| + | ** BBV, CAV, CVE, AV, DE, SS |
| + | * Having the Big 7 ([[Nagato]], [[Mutsu]], [[Nelson]]) is nice but not necessary. |
| + | |
| + | ===Hard=== |
| + | * As a general rule of thumb, your girls should be Kai Ni before attempting hard. For those without a Kai Ni, they should be level 90+. |
| + | * Similar to Medium, you will need plenty of substitutes and duplicates to account for ship locking. |
| + | * You should not be bothering trying to preemptively level girls for potential historical routing/bonuses. '''Unless you have already built up your core fleet'''. |
| + | * You want a wider array of ship types to meet the routing requirements and strategies. |
| + | ** BBV, CAV, CVE, AV, DE, SS |
| + | * Having the Big 7 ([[Nagato]], [[Mutsu]], [[Nelson]]) can be necessary for smooth event completion. |
