==Efficiency Summary==
To judge whether the comp is good for ranking, and to measure the efficiency, the KC simulator will be used to gauge the value and put in the following table as reference data. While '''it is true that the simulator code is not 100% correct as the game code, simulator code might miss some modifier here and there, this is still the closest data to the game that we players can reference to'''. After all, having some close numbers that we can base our comps on is still better than measuring a comp efficiency without any numbers to back it up.
*Due to this reason, some of the numbers down here might not reflect the true rate in the game, but since they are the closest rate to the game we can get, it is still a good reference that we can use to estimate the true reality rate around the expected range in the table below.
All the simulations are done with 50K samples. Probability variance might cause the rate to be a little off, but eventually they will end up at the expected value in the table with more samples.
*To test the comp in the simulator yourself, please do as the following:
**Step 1. Download the kcsim file provided in the external link of any comp in the '''Map & Comp''' column.
**Step 2. Go to KC simulator site [https://kc3kai.github.io/kancolle-replay/simulator.html], select '''Save/Load Simulator Backup'''.
**Step 3. A dialog box will pop up, select '''Choose File''', navigate to the kcsim file you just downloaded and open it.
**Step 4. Select '''Import All (Refresh page)''' to load it up.
*To see the details of equipment setup without downloading the file, please check out the second tab, '''Comp setup, routing and Misc. Notes'''.
Also, <font color="blue">'''''please check out [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vS8foAhKvObtP4lkiySl-MI29S4-oEO2awbMj2ErK19DDkzxltGSbjjb7Ndt4gWCNE6Rg7miR2AuwhF/pubhtml?gid=1579626598&single=true the following spreadsheet] as well to see more comps for other maps'''''. ''They are not listed here due to being inefficient in some ways, but they may be great if you are looking for some specific stuffs in those maps (i.e farming {{ShipLink|Maruyu}} in 4-5 or DE in 7-4, etc) beside farming for the ranking point''.</font>

The tradeoff is you can't really spam it much due to the high morale draining rate, so either you have to wait for a while to do it again or prepare a lot of this kind of fleet to do transport kill.
# The simulator assumes you will always lose fuel due to a maelstrom on the way. See <font color = "red">'''Note'''<ref name="Maelstrom">The simulator assumes 100% you will hit the maelstrom, therefore you will always lose fuel supply upon reaching the boss node. This doesn't affect the rate, however. The only thing it changes is the slight difference in fuel consumption which is around 10 fuel.
*The amount of fuel loss is based on the number of radar carriers your fleet has. The comp provided here has 4 radars on 4 ships, which only causes you to lose 12.6% fuel. For details of how much fuel you will lose, it is calculated as the following: '''電探0:-28%, 電探1:-21%, 電探2:-16.8%, 電探3:-14%, 電探4:-12.6%, 電探5:-11.76%, 電探6:-11.2%'''. The kanji means radar carrier and the number represents how many radar carriers you have. For example, if you have 3, you will lose only 14%, likewise, if you have 4, you will lose 12.6%.</ref></font> below for details.''<br/><br/>

==Managing quarterly sortie quests ranking points==
Credit to '''Savara, Ink20'''. This is one of the recommended strategies to shoot ranking cannons.
<br/><br/>As of current, there are 7 quarterly quests giving ranking points, known as cannon. A total of '''2050''' point can be obtained by completing all of those.
<br/>The following is the list of quarterly sortie quests. '''Bold''' indicates cannon quests
*At the beginning of the quarterly (unlocked by default): Bq3 and '''Bq13'''
*Unlocked by weekly or monthly quests:
**Bq1 needs Bm6 (Monthly 4-2)
**'''Bq2''' needs Bw2 (Weekly carriers)
**Bq5 needs D11 (Tokyo Express 2) 
**'''Bq7''' needs Bw9: (Weekly 5-2) 
**'''Bq8''' needs D11 (Tokyo Express 2) 
**Bq9 needs D11: (Tokyo Express 2) 
**'''Bq11''' needs Bm8 (Monthly supply lines)
*Unlocked by other quarterlies:
**Bq4 needs Bq3
**Bq6 needs Bq5  
**'''Bq10''' needs '''Bq2''' 
**'''Bq12''' needs '''Bq11'''

===Recommended course of actions===
*1. Do all weeklies
*2. Do Bm1: “Monthly Myoukou 2-5”
*3. Do Bm5: “Monthly 1-5”
*4. Do Bm8: “Monthly supply lines”
*5. Do Bq11: “Newbie cannon” (80 rpt must be “sacrificed”)
*6. At this point 5 big cannons are unlocked
**6.1. Bq2 do everything but 6-3 run
**6.2. Bq7 do everything but 5-4 run
**6.3. Bq8 do everything but one 1-5 run
**6.4. Bq12 do everything but 4-2 run
**6.5. Bq13 do everything but 5-4 run
*7. Bq10 remains locked until Bq2 is done
*8. Clear all EOs and farm ranking points as usual
*9. When the end of the month is close, calculate how many rpt you need to reach your desired position and fire the cannons you need.


Alternatively, if you want to try ranking all 3 months:
*Month 1. Do Bm1, Bm5, Bm8, Bq2, Bq8, 7-2-2 run of Bq10 (so you don't have to open it again) and everything but one run of Bq7, Bq11 and Bq13 (350+300 rpt with 200+80+390 rpt ready in case of need)
*Month 2. Do Bq7, Bq10 and Bq11 (200+400+80 rpt)
*Month 3. Do Bq12 and Bq13 (330+390 rpt)
Also, remember that some requirement of these quests are shared with other quests and can be done together like 5-4 of Bq7 and Bq13 with 2CL, 3CA, 1CV or 1BBV (north or south route), 6-4 of Bq2 and Bq13, 6-3 of Bq2 and Bq4, etc.

===Tools that help you with ranking===
====Savara's ranking cutoff - planning tool====
Website: [https://bonodere.famluro.es]
<br/>This is a ranking supportive tool that calculates the amount of point you need to farm in order to reach a selected goal. It also includes features using ranking data from [https://senka.su senka.su] such as automatic score input,  other players tracking system, and a filter for players potentially going for high ranking. For more information, please visit the site.<br/><br/>

====Senka.su====
Website: [https://senka.su]
<br/>A database site that shows the top 500 record of every server, which can be helpful if you wanna check where you are at compared to the other players in the top 500.<br/><br/>
===Ranking plan===
*As of September 2020, many quarterly quests that give ranking points have been released. This has directly affected the ranking pressure across all servers as nowaday T500 may requires as much effort as Phase 1 T100. However, this can also be a good thing as if you do all those quarterlies and EO in one single month, you can stack up to 3000 points pretty easily. With a couple of more sortie, you are guaranteed to hit T500 as well. So my advice is '''If your life is very busy, just focus all quarterlies in one month and clear all the EO that month too, this way, at least you will get ranking rewards every 3 months'''
**Of course it is still possible to rank every month and spread out quarterlies to get enough point buff (i.e each month you only do 2-3 quarterlies for around 600 points), but will require much more points from daily sortie for T500 nowaday if you wanna catch up. Plan your schedule accordingly to your server if you spam daily. You are gonna need like 3700 for T500 (Hashi will need more obviously)
===Regarding the EO and Quest cannon===
*For EO cannon, you can shoot anytime in a month to gain rpt, but '''note that if you shoot in the last day of the month, between 22:00 - 00:00 JST of the next month, it will not be counted for anything !'''
*For quarterly quest cannon:
**Shooting it anytime before 14:00 JST of the last day of any month will give rpt to that month.
**Shooting it after 14:00 JST of the last day of any month, <u>as long as that month is '''NOT''' the last month of the quarter</u>, will give rpt to the following month.
**Shooting it after 14:00 JST of the last day of the last month in a quarter <u>will just simply waste it, not counted for anything.</u>
**For reference, 4 quarters in KC are month 12-1-2 / 3-4-5 / 6-7-8 / 9-10-11
Example:
*Right now it's July, it belongs to quarter 6-7-8. I have the Z cannon available giving 350 points.
**If I shoot it anytime in July before 7/31 14:00 JST, I will have 350 points for July.
**If I shoot it after 7/31 14:00 JST, but before August coming, I will have 350 points for August.
**If I shoot it after 8/31 14:00 JST, I will get nothing out of it, as August is already the last month of the quarter.
*For limited seasonal quest cannon (Rainy Season 2023 - Terubozu, Setsubun, etc...), let's say the current month is '''May''' and it currently has a seasonal quest cannon:
**Shooting it anytime before 14:00 JST of the last day of '''May''' will give rpt to May.
**Shooting it after 14:00 JST of the last day of '''May''' will give rpt to the following month, '''June'''.
The last note regarding the seasonal quest cannon are '''VERY IMPORTANT''' to know about especially <font color="red">if the said cannon is a '''MONTHLY''' quest. As the points are '''given''' to the next month if the cannon is shot '''AFTER 14:00 JST of the current month''', <u>''it is possible to stack the point gained from that particular quest '''TWICE''' in the following month.''</u></font> The seasonal quest cannon will start giving the point to the next month as soon as 14:00 JST of the current month has been passed, but '''the monthly quest reset will not occur yet''', so there is a small time window of 15 hours where you can finish the said monthly seasonal quest before it resets itself, allowing you to do it again, doubling the point gained from the said quest in the following month.<br/><br/>
The entire quest cannon can be summed up using this table:
{| class = "wikitable" style="text-align: center; width: auto"
!rowspan=2|
|colspan=2|'''May 31st'''
|colspan=2|'''June 1st'''
|-
|'''13:59 JST of May 31st and before'''
|colspan=2|'''14:00 JST of May 31st - 04:59 JST of June 1st'''
|'''05:00 of June 1st and later'''
|-
|Quarterly quest
|Accounted for May
|colspan=2|<font color="red">'''LOST'''</font>
|Accounted for June
|-
|Seasonal quest '''BEFORE''' June quest reset
|Accounted for May
|colspan=2|'''Accounted for June'''

===What is considered as a good ranking comp to be listed on the table?===
A comp is considered to be good for ranking if it meets all of the following conditions when testing on the simulator:
*Victory rate > 95%.
*Fuel and ammo used per run < 300.
*Bauxite used per run < 50.
*Bucket used per run < 2.
*4 battles maximum, including boss.
*Efficiency higher than map 3-4 heavy comp.

===How to decide the best comp for a map if there are many variants?===
If there are multiple comps that can do the ranking well in a map, a tiebreaker system will be used to determine the best comp to display on the table. Tiebreaker rules are as the following:
# Victory rate
# Fuel and ammo used
# Bauxite used
# Bucket used
# Whether the fleet detecting enemy using seaplane, or having air power.
