− | After clearing TP Phases for several generations on E1 and E2, it is now up to your great-grandson to reach the Transport Node M and to defeat the Transport Boss at Q, which includes a rather troublesome Ne-Class Kai at up to 255 Armour. There are two Options to complete this Phase. Both of them go through Node J, which can spawn an enemy Torpedo Squadron in Vanguard Formation. There will also be a Submarine Node and Airstrike Node on the way. Depending on Strategy (A or S-Ranks) you might want to set up historical ships to deal with the Na-Class Kai at Q. | + | After clearing TP Phases for several generations on E1 and E2, it is now up to your great-grandson to reach the Transport Node M and to defeat the Transport Boss at Q, which includes a rather troublesome Ne-Class Kai at up to 255 Armour.

− | ==Phase 3: Unlock the Boss Node and Shortcuts== | + | ==Phase 2: Second Transport Phase== |
| + | |
| + | This Phase is largely a repeat of Phase 1 (including Fleet compositions), the Transport Node is found at U and the Transport Boss at Node X. The Transport Boss in this Phase is largely consisting of PT-Imps, so taking means to deal with them is highly recommended. In comparison to Phase 1 there is an additional Airstrike in Form of Node P. The Surface Task Force may opt to use a Fleet Carrier (CV) instead of a CVL in this Phase. |
| + | <br> |
| + | <br> |
| + | Note that Surface Task Force has different routing compared to Phase 1; in this phase, it will route from Start Point 2, proceeding via '''R-S-T-K-L-P-W-U-X''' (shortest possible route). The fleet must be '''Fast''' to avoid offrouting to nodes F & G. Other than that, the fleet is similar to the Phase 1 Surface Task Force Fleet, with the possibility of swapping a CV for a CVL. |
| + | *The only potentially dangerous node is T, which can contain 2 Ne Elites in Vanguard formation. |
| + | |
| + | ==Phase 3: Unlock the Boss Node and Shortcut== |
| + | |
| + | To unlock the Boss Node, you need to obtain Air Superiority on LBAS Raid defence twice (on Hard). Set up your LBAS accordingly and sortie your fleet until you trigger the Raid. |
| + | |
| + | To unlock the Shortcut T->Z you need to do the following: |
| + | |
| + | * S-Rank Node Q: |
| + | ** You are required to use a '''Transport Combined Fleet''' as outlined in Phase 1 for this step as a STF will no longer route there. |
| + | ** Replace Transport Equipment for Combat Equipment |
| + | |
| + | * S-Rank Node D |
| + | ** Routes B-D. Use a '''Carrier Task Force''' and load up on ASW equipment |
| + | |
| + | * S-Rank Node R |
| + | ** Routes R. Use a '''Surface Task Force''' and load up on ASW equipment |
| + | |
| + | * '''Alternative:''' S-Rank Nodes D & R (in same sortie) |
| + | **It is also possible to S-Rank Nodes D & R in one sortie, routing B-D-R. Use a '''Carrier Task Force''' that contains 4 or more (F)BB(V)+CV(L/B) and load up on ASW equipment |

| | | |
− | Info currently 404
| + | With the presence of strong historical Bonuses, doing the debuff can be considered optional. It only applies to the Last Dance form. It is currently unknown if debuffing can only be done once the Boss is put into a Last Dance state. The following steps are suspected to be required on Hard Difficulty: |
| + | |
| + | * S-Rank Node T |
| + | * S-Rank Node K |
| + | * S-Rank Node J (?) |
| + | * S-Rank Node Q (P1 Boss, requires usage of TCF) |
| + | * S-Rank Node I (slow CTF: 3(BB/CV) + CL/4DD) |

| + | ==Phase 5: Defeat the Abyssal Loli Battleship Princess== |
| | | |
− | ==Phase 5: Destroy the Child==
| + | The Goal of this Phase is to defeat the New Battleship Princess found at Node Z. She is accompanied by two Wo-Class Kai Aircraft Carriers and a heavier Torpedo Squadron in a Combined Fleet. She herself can be considered the main threat of this Node, her escorting ships are considerably weaker compared to other Event Boss nodes. At up to 356 Armour on Last Dance and 980HP you should be making use of Historical Ships with high bonuses like {{Ship/Link|Verniy}}, {{Ship/Link|Tashkent}} and {{Ship/Link|Gangut Dva|link=Gangut}}. |
