===Critical Bonus===
−
There are two separate critical modifier bonuses for plane proficiency. One affects '''normal carrier attacks''' and '''carrier night cut-ins''', the other affects '''carrier cut-in attacks'''.  
+
The proficiency give two different bonuses to critical hit. It gives a bonus to the critical hit '''rate''' and also to the critical '''damage modifier'''.

 +
;Critical Hit Rate

There are multiple formulas for the critical modifier bonuses from plane proficiency.
 
*The "'''Captain'''" refers to the plane in the 1st slot.

Planes have the ability to earn experience and gain ranks. Experience is gained from combat, be it normal sorties or LBAS attacks and defense.

Overview

As planes earn experience, they will progress through the ranks as follows:

Rank Level Displayed Insignia Experience Fighter Power Bonus
(All Planes[1]) 		Aditional Fighter Power Bonus

7 ❱❱ 100-120 +3.162 ~ 3.464 +6 +22
  1. ↑ Excluding the Rotorcraft Liaison Aircraft [1]
Notes
  • Planes will gain ranks at different speeds, each having a fixed leveling speed.
    • See below for more details.
  • Planes getting shot down will lose ranks.
    • A slot getting emptied has a high chance of resetting plane ranks.
    • Ranks cannot be gained or lost in PvP.
  • Abyssal planes do not have proficiency.
  • Opposing PvP fleets do have proficiency.
  • It is important to secure air superiority where possible to preserve plane proficiency.
  • The "Fighter Power Bonus" is calculated as
[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Fighter Power}_\text{proficiency} = \sqrt{\frac{\text{Exp}_\text{plane}}{10}} }[/math]
with
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Exp}_\text{plane} }[/math] the experience of the plane.
    • Unlike most other formulas in the game, it is not rounded down.

Rank Effects

Fighter Power Bonus

The biggest bonus from plane proficiency is giving a fighter power bonus to help during the Stage 1. The innate bonus is added onto the fighter power bonus of the relevant plane to get the full fighter power bonus.

Fighter Power Bonus for ❱❱ Planes

ASW Aircraft RotorcraftLiaison Aircraft +0
Notes
  • Fighter-Bombers and Jets are considered dive bombers and only get the +3 bonus and not the +25.
  • This is a flat bonus applied after the fighter power of the slot is calculated. This means it is not affected by rounding.
  • Even if the plane has 0 Anti-Air, it will still get the relevant bonus.

Critical Bonus

The proficiency give two different bonuses to critical hit. It gives a bonus to the critical hit rate and also to the critical damage modifier.


Critical Hit Rate

There are multiple formulas for the critical modifier bonuses from plane proficiency.

  • The "Captain" refers to the plane in the 1st slot.
  • See here for more details.

Notes
  • This formula only work at ❱❱ . The effect for lower proficiency is still under investigation.
  • This also applies to carrier night attacks.
    • Unlike other carrier night attacks formulas, non-night capable planes are taken into account for calculating the proficiency critical bonus.
  • Planes in empty slots do not count toward proficiency bonuses.

Critical Hit Damage Modifier

Carriers get a bonus critical modifier when equipped with high-proficiency planes. This modifier is multiplicative with the normal critical modifier. See here for more details.

Critical Hit Damage Modifier

    • For airstrikes and LBAS the bonus is calculated slot by slot (there is no sum).
  • [math]\displaystyle{ Exp }[/math] the current experience value of the plane.
  • [math]\displaystyle{ {Slot}_\text{Mod} }[/math] a modifier that change according to the slot:
    • Being 1 for the first carrier slot and every LBAS slot,
    • Being 2 for every other carrier slots.

Notes
  • This is the Vita formula that has been validated by tests [2].
Exception
  • For day CVCI (night CVCI follow the above formula), the formula is yet to be understood. We do know that the bonus is 1.256 if all planes are ❱❱ .
  • The two Hayabusa(20th)Type 1 Fighter Hayabusa Model II Kai (20th Squadron)
    Type 1 Fighter Hayabusa Model III Kai (Skilled/20th Squadron)     do not follow the same formula as other planes.
    • The experience seems to have a 0.85 modifier but we lack data to confirm it.

Accuracy Bonus

The average proficiency of all "bombers" on the carrier are taken into account for calculating the accuracy bonus.

Accuracy Proficiency Bonus Formula
[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Acc}_\text{proficiency} = \sqrt{0.1 \times \text{Exp}_\text{Avg} } + \text{Mod}_\text{proficiency} }[/math]
With
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Exp}_\text{Avg} }[/math] the average experience level of all relevant planes on the carrier.

Notes
  • Remember that fighters are not counted for the accuracy bonus.

LoS

  • The developers have stated that proficiency will provide a bonus to LoS and contact rate.
    • The increase is either bugged or too small to be observed.

Expeditions

For Expeditions that require Stat threshold to be completed, when using planes, proficiency will affect the amount of stat given by said plane.

  • Those exact effects are unknown yet but not negligible.
  • See here for more dedails.

Ranking Planes

Carrier-Based Planes & Seaplanes

Carrier-based planes and seaplanes can be ranked anywhere. The most resource-efficient way is to send them on sorties to surface nodes with little to no air power. It is possible to rank them through LBAS but it gets expensive. The following are recommended spots:

  • 1-1: "any fleet"
  • 2-2: 3CV(L)/BBV + 3XX "off route"

Land-Based Planes

Land-based planes can only be ranked through LBAS. This makes ranking them quite expensive. Outside of events, only 7-4, 6-4, and 6-5 have LBAS available to use for now. Of these:

  • 7-4 is the best place as it has multiple submarine nodes that are easy to reach, and are on the main resources farming route. This allows any land-based plane to be ranked while doing regular "risk-free" resource farming.
    • See here for more details
  • 6-5 is also a good place, as it allows the use of two land bases and has a Range 1 submarine node at node B, that can be reached using 1CL and a mix of DD & DE.

  • Remodeling planes to better versions through quests will retain their ranks if it is higher than the default rank.
  • Ranks can decrease by 1-2 if a large number of planes are shot down.
  • Ranks will be reset if the entire squadron is shot down.
    • Even elite squadrons with default ranks can lose all their ranks.
      • There is a visual bug where elite squadrons may retain default ranks visually, sortieing them again will update it to their actual value.
  • Rank loss is calculated before rank gain, therefore it is possible for a squadron that was wiped to retain 1-2 ranks if it did well.
  • Rank is only calculated once the fleet returns to port.
    • It is possible to save ranks by quitting the sortie before the results screen is shown. This can be useful during events to save preparation time for boss kills.
  • Planes will not gain or lose ranks in Support Expeditions or Exercises.
  • Planes must participate in aerial combat or detection to gain/lose ranks.
    • Planes in 0 slots will not gain or lose ranks.
    • If planes are not launched due to failing Detection, they will not gain or lose ranks.
    • In Combined Fleets, when facing a single fleet, no plane in the escort fleet will not gain or lose ranks.

Leveling Speed

Planes gain a certain number of internal proficiency points with some random variance every time they participate in Aerial Combat or Detection. The amount gained depends on the exp-rate group of the plane.

Detection: Seaplane Seaplanes, Reconnaissance Aircraft Recons, Large Flying Boat Large Flying Boats

Aerial Combat: FighterNight FighterFighters, Dive BomberDive Bombers, Torpedo BomberNight Torpedo BomberTorpedo Bombers, Seaplane BomberBomberSeaplane Bombers, Seaplane FighterSeaplane Fighters, JetFighterBomber1.pngJets, Land-based Attack AircraftLand-based Patrol AircraftLand-based Bombers, Land-based FighterLand-based FighterInterceptors, Land-based Heavy BomberLand-based Heavy Bombers

LBAS Attack, LBAS Defense, Jet Assault, and LBAS Jet Assault also count as Aerial Combat.

  • Each LBAS Attack wave counts as one round of Aerial Combat, so planes attacking the same node twice gain experience twice. There is no Detection for LBAS, so recons (including Land-based Recons) do not gain experience.
  • Because Seaplane Bombers participate in both Aerial Combat and Detection, they effectively level twice as fast as other planes of their group in most cases.
  • Jets receive experience from both Jet Assault and the following Aerial Combat, effectively leveling twice as fast as other planes of their group in most cases. However, Jet Assault does not occur against all-submarine fleets, so they gain experience only once in this case.
