Is a "Fleet Oiler" (AO), despite being designated in the game as a:
 +
*"Survey Ship" (AGS / Auxiliary Ship Utility / 特務艦)
 +
*Lighthouse Tender (AGL / 灯台補給 / 灯台補給船)
 +
*Icebreaker (AGB / Auxiliary Icebreaker / 南極観測 / 南極観測船)

Souya (AGL/AGB)'s ship class in-game is the {{Type|Ice-strengthened General-duties Transport Ship}}, but is displayed as "''LL01''" at AGL, and "''PL107''" at AGB, on her [[Library]] page.

====[[1-3]] Immortal fuel farming<ref>Source: https://twitter.com/ych0701/status/1410537016714940420?s=20&t=RfACXTRmiJf6hpzwoYQkQQ</ref>====

<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
 +
 +
Thanks to her incredible ''Luck'' (77+) and ''Armor'' (62) stats, '''Souya (AGB)''' (not AGS nor AGL) can exploit damage mechanics to farm on fuel on [[1-3]].
 +
*Souya needs to:
 +
**Be on AGB form (last one),
 +
**Be max modded, especially her armor,
 +
**Carry a {{EquipmentLink|Anti-torpedo Bulge (Large)|Pugliese Underwater Protection Bulkhead|New Kanhon Design Anti-torpedo Bulge (Large)|text=Large armor}} (if possible the one at {{EquipmentLink|New Kanhon Design Anti-torpedo Bulge (Large)|text=+10 armor}}),
 +
***The {{ArmorEquipment}} armor can be put in a [[Reinforcement Expansion]] to save one slot,
 +
**Be {{color|orange|'''moderately damaged (中破)'''}}, with '''7 HPs''',
 +
**Carry as many '''{{EquipmentLink|Daihatsu Landing Craft|Toku Daihatsu Landing Craft|text=Landing Craft}}''' as possible.
 +
 +
When setup like that, Souya can be sortie alone on [[1-3]],
 +
*She will follow the route {{MapRoute|A|blue|D|green|B|blue|E|red}}
 +
*One the battle of Node {{MapRoute|E|red}}, thanks to how damages are calculated in Kancolle, she will be virtually immune to damages and so will survive the battle almost every time,
 +
*Once the battle is completed, the sortie can be ended to gather the fuel and restart a run,
 +
*It is possible to farm about {{color|lime|'''900+ fuel/h}} ''"risk free"''''' using this method.
 +
 +
;Note
 +
*The method only works on [[1-3]] Node {{MapRoute|E|red}}, other battles being able to damage Souya.

Is a "Fleet Oiler" (AO), despite being designated in the game as a:

  • "Survey Ship" (AGS / Auxiliary Ship Utility / 特務艦)
  • Lighthouse Tender (AGL / 灯台補給 / 灯台補給船)
  • Icebreaker (AGB / Auxiliary Icebreaker / 南極観測 / 南極観測船)
  • This is reflected in her equipability exceptions only.

Gameplay Notes

Fleet Oilers (AO) can notably refuel ships mid-sortie using Supplies Underway ReplenishmentUnderway Replenishment.

1-3 Immortal fuel farming[1]

Thanks to her incredible Luck (77+) and Armor (62) stats, Souya (AGB) (not AGS nor AGL) can exploit damage mechanics to farm on fuel on 1-3.

  • Souya needs to:

When setup like that, Souya can be sortie alone on 1-3,

  • She will follow the route A D B E
  • One the battle of Node E, thanks to how damages are calculated in Kancolle, she will be virtually immune to damages and so will survive the battle almost every time,
  • Once the battle is completed, the sortie can be ended to gather the fuel and restart a run,
  • It is possible to farm about 900+ fuel/h "risk free" using this method.
Note
  • The method only works on 1-3 Node E, other battles being able to damage Souya.

Special Mechanics

Example of Underway Replenishment translated.

Supplies Underway ReplenishmentUnderway Replenishments are consumable items that are used to restore fuel and ammo mid-sortie when consumed.

When entering a boss node, a prompt will appear giving a choice to use the Underway Replenishment(s) or not.

  • The cost of the resupply will be deducted from the stockpile.
  • The resupply cannot be activated when having insufficient Fuel fuel or Ammunition ammo.
  • The amount of Fuel fuel and Ammunition ammo resupplied depends on
    • The fleet type (single or combined)
    • How many Resupplies are carried.

The resupply rates are as follow:

Item Icon Underway Replenishment.png Used Single Fleet Combined Fleet
1 25 % 15 %
2 36 % 27.5 %
3 47 % 40 %

This mechanic should only be used to avoid Fuel penalty or/and Ammo penalty.

Introduction
Play 		I'm the special operations ship[1], Souya. Admiral, it's an honor to meet you. I'm a non-combat ship, but... I'll do my best! Pleased to meet you!
特務艦、宗谷です。提督、お逢いできて、光栄です。戦闘艦ではありませんが、私…精一杯、働きます！どうぞよろしく、お願いします！
Introduction
Play 		I'm the lighthouse tender, Souya. I can't carry any weapons, but... I can carry lots of other things. I'll keep doing my best today too!
灯台補給船、宗谷です。はい、原則として武装は出来ませんが…様々のものを運ぶことができます。私、今日も精一杯働きます。
Introduction
Play 		I'm the Antarctic research vessel, Souya. Yes, this orange and white uniform is lovely, isn't it? I've been upgraded quite extensively[2]. I'll keep doing my best, even on a voyage to Antarctica.
南極観測船、宗谷です。はい、このオレンジと白のユニフォーム素敵ですよね？かなり改装されました。私、南極への旅も、精一杯働きます。
Library
Play 		I'm Souya. I was built as an ice-strengthened[3] cargo ship. As an IJN special operations ship, I participated in many operations like Operation MI[4]. I was also deployed to that fierce battle in the Solomons[5]. I took on missions like surveying, landings and transporting. After the war, I became everyone's flagship and became a lighthouse tender[6]... After an extensive remodel, I became an Antarctic research vessel and sailed those seas in the Showa era.
耐氷型貨物船として生まれた宗谷です。海軍特務艦として、MI作戦などの様々な作に参加。激戦のソロモン方面へも展開。測量や揚陸、輸送などの任務に就きました。戦後は、皆さんの旗艦、そして灯台補給船。さらに大改装され、南極観測船として、昭和という時代と、その海を駆け抜けました。
Secretary 1
Play 		Do you need a survey done? Or something transported? ...I'll do it!
測量ですか？輸送ですか？…やります！
Secretary 1
Play 		A lighthouse needs resupplying? Leave it to me. I'll do it.
灯台の補給ですか？お任せください。やります。
Secretary 1
Play 		To Antarctica? Leave it to me. I can do it!
南極ですね？お任せください。もちろん！
Secretary 2
Play 		"The Miraculous Ship"? Oh no, I'm not... That's just...[7]
「奇跡の船」ですか？いえ、いえいえ…そんな…
Secretary 2
Play 		"Guardian of the Seas"? ...No, that's not... I was just doing my job.[8]
「海の守り神」ですか？…いえ、そんな…働くだけです。
Secretary 2
Play 		"The ship that makes the impossible, possible"? No, all I did was do the best I could.[9]
「不可能を可能にする船」？いえ、精一杯頑張るだけです。
Secretary 3
Play 		Yes, I worked very hard during the Showa era... I was originally ordered by foreigners[10] but... A lot of things happened and I was assigned to Yokosuka Naval Base[11]. I even went to that fierce battle in the Solomons.
はい、昭和というを時代を精一杯働きました…もともとは外国から発注されたんですが…色々あって、横須賀鎮守府所属となりました。激戦のソロモンにも行きました。
Secretary 3
Play 		Yes, I worked very hard during the Showa era... "The Santa Claus of the Sea"[12]? You're being too kind. But I'll carry anything you need. For all your sakes.
はい、昭和というを時代を精一杯働きました…「海のサンタクロース」？いえいえ。でも、運びますよ。皆さんのために。
Secretary 3
Play 		Yes, I worked very hard during the Showa era... Showa Station[13], ramming through the ice[14], blowing up the ice[15], going on so many Antarctic research expeditions... I remember everything fondly. This peaceful Odaiba[16] in the Reiwa era is also nice.
はい、昭和と言うを時代を精一杯働きました…昭和基地、チャージング、氷の爆破、幾多の南極観測隊…何もかも皆懐かしいですね。令和の時代の静かなお台場も、いいものです。
Idle
Play 		That's right. I did surveys-in-force and landings at Saipan, Truk, Rabaul, and that fierce battle at the Solomon Islands. My home port was Yokosuka, but... I ended up going all over the place. Now that I think about it... It's probably a miracle that I made it back in one piece.
そうですね。サイパン、トラック、そしてラバウル、あの激戦のソロモン諸島で強行測量や揚陸なども行いました。母港は横須賀だったんですけど…色々なところに行きましたね。今考えると、無事に帰ってこれたんのは…たしかに奇跡、かも。
Idle
Play 		Being a lighthouse tender is an important job. I kept the lighthouses around the country running by delivering essentials and supplies to the lighthouse keepers. That's right, they called me a Pri[17]... I mean, the "Santa Claus of the Sea". It was important work.
灯台補給船は大事な仕事でした。全国各地の大切な灯台を守る、灯台守の皆さんに、生活物資や補給物資を送りしました。そうですね、ひ…いえ、海のサンタクロースっと呼ばれたこともありました。大切なお仕事、でした。
Idle
Play 		Charging? That's so nostalgic. I think I can still do it... It's called "Ramming" now? "Ice-Melting Deluge System"[18] ...That sounds so convenient... No, I'm fine. If worst comes to worst, I can just blow myself free... Huh? That's going overboard?
チャージング航行？懐かしい。まだ、行けるかしら…今は、ラミング航行っていうの？融雪用散水装置？…便利なものがあるですね…いえ、大丈夫。最悪、爆破で進めば…えぇ？強引すぎます？
Secretary Married
Play 		Are you tired, Capt... Sorry, I mean, Admiral? I'll get you some coffee. I only have frozen food but it's really delicious. Would you like some?
お疲れですか、船……じゃなかった、提督？コーヒーを入れましょう。私、冷凍ですけど、美味しいもの結構積んでますよ。ご賞味されますか？
Wedding
Play 		Umm, what's this? ...Are you serious? ...Really? ...Th-th-thank you very much. I'll treasure this. I really will!
