==Combat Stages==
+
{{CombatPortal}}
−
For most combat engagements, the battle will begin in day combat and follow the following set of stages. Several stages will not occur unless certain conditions are met.
+
Combat is a major component of the game in Kantai Collection. Combat is accessed through the [[Sortie]] menu by selecting a map to send a fleet. Multiple mechanics weave together to create an intricate combat dynamic. For more detailed explanations on the various combat mechanics, please see the individual pages below. [[Exercises]] also consist of one surface combat.
−
*[[Combined Fleet]] uses a modified combat order.
 
−
*For Air Battle Only nodes (1-6 and certain event map nodes; may be a single-fleet or [[Combined Fleet]]), there is no Opening Torpedo Salvo, and [[#Day_Combat|Day Combat]] is completely replaced by a second round of Aerial Combat.
 
−
:*Thus ships that cannot participate in Aerial Combat cannot attack. They can still perform Anti-Air Defense, as usual.

=Combat Phases=
 +
On each node, combat will consist of several "Combat Phases". The number of combat phases depends on the node type, with each node type using a different set of combat phases and order.
 +
*''See [[Node]]s for more details.
 +
*Using a [[Combined Fleet]] will also affect the phases, especially during the shelling.
 +
 
 +
The combat phases are made out of:

Participants: All ships except [[:Category:Submarines|SS]], [[:Category:Light Carriers|CVLs]] and [[:Category:Standard Carriers|CVs]] not carrying any bombers, and basic [[Transport Ship Wa-Class]]. <br/> Firing order alternates between allied and enemy sides, starting with allied.

#[[Night Battle#Night Contact and Spotting|Night Contact and Spotting]]
−
:*Ships on the same side tied in range will break ties randomly and assigned order within that side.
+
#[[Night Battle#Night Shelling Phase|Night Shelling Phase]]
−
*The firing order is set as Allied Order #1 → Enemy Order #1 → Allied Order #2 → …
 
−
:*The firing order is set at the start of the round; ships sunk or incapacitated before their turn is simply removed from the firing order.
 
−
 
 
−
;Shelling, 2nd Round (Lineup Order)
 
−
Participants: All ships except [[:Category:Submarines|SS]], [[:Category:Light Carriers|CVLs]] and [[:Category:Standard Carriers|CVs]] not carrying any bombers, and basic [[Transport Ship Wa-Class]]. <br/> Firing order is set at start of this round by alternating ships on each side that are normally capable of attacking during shelling rounds.
 
−
*Ships higher in lineup have priority.
 
−
:*Only ships qualifying as Participant will be put in the lineup. For example, allied flagship is a CVL that is not carrying a bomber; 2nd round shelling would begin with the allied ship in the 2nd slot in the lineup (if it's capable of attacking).
 
−
*The firing order is set as Allied Lineup #1 → Enemy Lineup #1 → Allied Lineup #2 → …
 
−
:*The firing order is set at the start of the round; ships sunk or incapacitated before their turn is simply removed from the firing order.

*Only occurs when either side has a [[:Category:Battleships|BB]], [[:Category:Aviation Battleships|BBV]], or the enemy has one of the special ship classes (鬼 ''Oni''/Ogress, 姫 ''Hime/''Princess) which acts like a BB/BBV: {{nihongo|[[Destroyer Princess]]|駆逐棲姫}} does not, while {{nihongo|[[Battleship Princess]]|戦艦棲姫}} does. The distinction between [[Enemy Vessel#Bosses|Bosses]] that do and those that do not trigger this phase is not always clear from their names.

;Closing Torpedo Salvo
 
−
Participants: [[:Category:Destroyers|DDs]], [[:Category:Light Cruisers|CLs]], [[:Category:Torpedo Cruisers|CLTs]], [[:Category:Heavy Cruisers|CAs]], [[:Category:Aviation Cruisers|CAVs]], [[Chitose]], [[Chiyoda]], [[:Category:Submarines|SS]], [[Bismarck#Third Upgrade|Bismarck drei]], [[Battleship Re-Class]], some enemy-specific ship classes; Requires current HP > 50% of Max HP and Base Torpedo Value > 0
 
−
 
 
−
Like the opening torpedo salvo, all participants attack simultaneously.
 
−
*Note that certain ships (Ooyodo, Maruyu, base Chitose, base Chiyoda) have initial innate torpedo value of 0; without modernization they cannot participate in closing torpedo salvo.
 
−
:*Chitose and Chiyoda cannot increase their torpedo stat without remodeling. However, they can launch torpedoes during Opening Torpedo Salvo if equipped with [[Type A Ko-hyoteki]].

The first slot allied ship attacks, then the first slot enemy ship attacks, and so on. If a ship is sunk or critically damaged, the game will skip its turn.

*The order differs from 2nd Shelling Round in that it does not "skip" ships already sunk prior to the start of the round.

==Formation Selection==
 
==Formation Selection==
−
With 4 or more ships in a fleet, a fleet formation must be selected before combat. The selected formation affects ship damage and hit rate.
+
If the fleet currently deployed has 4 or more ships, the player will be prompted to pick a fleet formation before every battle. Fleets with 3 or less ships will not have a fleet formation prompt and will default to '''Line Ahead'''.
 +
* Sunk ships and ships [[Evacuation|evacuated]] with a {{EquipmentLink|Fleet Command Facility|Striking Force Fleet Command Facility|Elite Torpedo Squadron Command Facility|text=Command Facility|link=Evacuation}} are not counted.
 +
* Diamond Formation requires 5 or more ships present in the fleet to be selected.
 +
* Enemy fleets do not have these restrictions. Enemy fleets in Diamond formation with fewer than 4 ships lack formation graphics on the battle screen.
 +
Combined Fleets have special [[Combined Formation|formations]] that differ from the standard single fleet ones.

*The surface damage modifier applies to both shelling and torpedo attacks, but does not affect Aerial Combat or Anti-Submarine attacks.

*'''Flagship protection''' is the situation where a non-flagship ship protects the flagship from being damaged by receiving the attack instead.
 
−
*Line Ahead has the highest offensive power for surface combat. It is the default choice for encounters after the 3rd battle node to preserve firepower because of the remaining ammo penalty.
 
−
*Double Line is generally a good formation for heavy BB/CV fleets. There is a significant accuracy increase that benefits the typically lower accuracy carriers, while BB often still have enough firepower.

*This calculation does not take into account any anti-air weaponry equipped on ships. Carrier anti-air stat is also not considered.
 
−
*The percentage of planes shot down applies for both sides' respective outcomes, and is calculated per slot.
 
−
:*For example, securing Air Superiority means allied planes shoot down up to 80% of enemy planes, and the enemy under Air Incapability will shoot down up to 40%.
 
−
:*As this is applied per slot, 80% of one enemy bomber group can be shot down while a second has 0% shot down.
 
−
*[[Combat#Contact|Contact]] can be triggered by having at least 1 carrier scout plane, seaplane scout, and/or torpedo bomber equipped. It increases damage during the bombing phase depending on the accuracy bonus of the squad triggering Contact.
 
−
*Even if allied planes secure air supremacy, planes can still be lost (up to 10%), and the subsequent anti-air defense stage can eliminate more bombers.

[[File:Bandicam_2014-11-20_02-55-57-126.avi_snapshot_00.26_-2014.11.20_03.09.34-.jpg|thumb|An Anti-Air Cut-In]]
 
−
Certain equipment combinations will provide a chance for an Anti-Air Cut-In (AACI) during the aerial combat. When activated, the cut-in CG (shown on the right) would appear before engaging the enemy fighters, but does not appear to affect the resulting air control state (AS+, AS, Air Parity or Denial). Although there's currently no conclusion on how it's applied onto the [[Combat#Fleet_Anti-air_Defense|Fleet Anti-air Defense formula]], a general consensus suggests the effectiveness scales with the AA stat ({{AA}}) of the ship triggering it.

====Requirement====
 
−
* One of the following sets:
 
−
*# <u>Heavy Main Gun</u>{{Template:RedGunHeavy}}, <u>Type 3 Shell</u> {{GreenAmmo}}, plus <u>Anti-Aircraft Fire Director</u> '''(AAFD)''' {{AntiAircraftFireDirector}}
 
−
*#* ''Can be supplemented with an AA RADAR'' {{Radar}}
 
−
*#* Only available for BB(V)s due to Heavy Gun requirement.
 
−
*# <u>High-Angle mount</u> ([[List_of_Main_Guns_by_stats|main gun]] or [[List_of_Secondary_Guns_by_stats|secondary]]) {{GreenGunDP}} plus <u>'''AAFD'''</u>{{AntiAircraftFireDirector}}
 
−
*#* ''Can be supplemented with an AA RADAR'' {{Radar}}
 
−
*#* Achievable by any surface ship.
 
−
*# [[10cm Twin High-angle Mount + Anti-Aircraft Fire Director|'''<u>10cm Twin High-angle Mount + AAFD</u>''']] plus <u>AA RADAR</u>{{Radar}}
 
−
*#* ''Can be supplemented with an HA mount ''{{GreenGunDP}}'' or another 10cm Twin High-angle Mount + AAFD''
 
−
*#* Available to any ship capable of equipping a Light Main Gun.
 
−
*# [[25mm Triple Autocannon Mount (Concentrated Deployment)|'''<u>25mm Triple Autocannon Mount (Concentrated Deployment)</u>''']], [[List of Anti-Air Guns by stats|<u>AA Gun</u>]] (any) {{GreenGunMG}}, plus <u>AA RADAR</u> {{Radar}}
 
−
*#* Achievable by any surface ship.
 
−
*# Either [[12.7cm Twin High-angle Mount + Anti-Aircraft Fire Director|'''<u>12.7cm Twin High-angle Mount + AAFD</u>''']] or [[90mm Single High Angled Gun|'''<u>90mm Single High Angled Gun</u>''']], plus <u>AA RADAR</u> {{Radar}}
 
−
*#* ''Can be supplemented with an High-angle Mount + AAFD''
 
−
*#* As both 12.7cm Twin High-angle Mount + AAFD and 90mm Single High Angled Gun are considered secondary guns, only ships capable of equipping them may use this setup.
 
−
 
 
−
* '''[[Akizuki]]''' has a built-in AA fire director, which allows her to trigger AACI without an AAFD with the following setup
 
−
:* <u>High-Angle mount</u> (any) {{GreenGunDP}} plus either or both:
 
−
::* ''<u>RADAR</u> (any kind)'' {{Radar}}
 
−
::* ''<u>High-Angle mount</u> (any)'' {{GreenGunDP}}
 
−
*[[Maya|Maya Kai 2]] may trigger AACI with a unique setup:
 
−
:* [[25mm Triple Autocannon Mount (Concentrated Deployment)|'''<u>25mm Triple Autocannon Mount (Concentrated Deployment)</u>''']], plus <u>High-Angle mount</u> (any) {{GreenGunDP}}
 
−
::* ''Can be supplemented with an AA RADAR'' {{Radar}}
 
−
 
 
−
====Notes====
 
−
* [[10cm Twin High-angle Mount + Anti-Aircraft Fire Director|10cm Twin High-angle Mount + AAFD]], [[12.7cm Twin High-angle Mount + Anti-Aircraft Fire Director|12.7cm Twin High-angle Mount + AAFD]] and [[90mm Single High Angled Gun]] can substitute for a regular High-angle mount. Their built-in AAFD functions when paired with an AA RADAR.
 
−
* Slots otherwise empty can be equipped with anything else without disabling the Anti-Air Cut-In.
 
−
* A maximum of 1 ship will perform AACI per battle (regardless of how many ships are capable of doing so, or whether it is a [[Combined Fleet]] engagement), and due to AA stat of the ship performing the cut-in affecting the number of planes shot down, it may be desired to limit the number of ships with AACI setup.
 
−
* Successful enemy AACI will not display; typically, greater than normal losses of planes after a battle can be contributed to enemy AACI.
 
−
* Does not affect the determination of [[Combat#Fighter_Combat|Air Superiority]].
 
−
* Cannot shoot down pure enemy fighters, as usual.
 
−
 
 
−
====Effect====
 
−
* Provide an AoE blast on all the incoming enemy '''bombers''', from the ship who is triggering it.'' ([http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Reikyu/A_brief_look_at_AA_defense_and_AA_cut-in_performance source 1], [http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-41.html 2], ''[http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-43.html 3]'')''
 
−
 
 
−
====Trigger Chance====
 
−
* '''AA stat''' ({{AA}}) of the ship performing the cut-in (equipment bonuses included) affects trigger rate.  The correlation seems to be about +0.4% trigger rate for every point of AA ?  ''([http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-43.html source 1], [http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-41.html 2])''
 
−
* '''Air radars''' provide marginal bonuses on AACI:
 
−
:* For HA + AAFD setup, Air radar on CA does not increase the trigger chance on a large scale ??.'' ([http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-41.html source])''
 
−
:* Type 13 Air radar Kai on Akizuki (and other DDs?) increases the trigger chance by '''~10%'''. When AACI was activated, it also helps with shooting down more bombers. (''[http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-43.html source]'')
 
−
 
 
−
With an AA Cut-In from a ship with high AA stat ({{AA}}), it is possible to '''obliterate all incoming bombers''' before they inflict any damage, and even prevent opposing carriers from shelling since they have 0 bombers left.''' In PVP Exercises, opposing fleets can do AA Cut-Ins, but the animation is not shown.'''
 
−
 
 
−
There are reports that enemy ships in map [[World_6:_%E4%B8%AD%E9%83%A8%E6%B5%B7%E5%9F%9F#6-2|6-2]] ''might'' be capable of doing AACI. Other than that, there is currently no enemy ship capable to blast all your bombers with AA weapons.
 
−
 
 
−
===Fleet Anti-air Defense===
 
−
Each enemy bomber slot is assigned at random to a defending ship. Those ships then, for each assigned enemy slot, have an approximately 50% chance to shoot down enemy planes. The number of planes shot down is given by the equations below:
 
−
 
 
−
<center>
 
−
<math>\text{Shot Down} = \text{Floor((Ship AA } + \text{Floor(Fleet Anti-air} \times \text{Formation Modifier))} \times 0.2125\text{)}</math>, where <br><math>\text{Fleet Anti-air} = \text{Floor(} \sum^\text{All slots}\text{Equipment AA Bonus} \times \text{Equipment Modifier)}</math>
 
−
</center>
 
−
The "Fleet Anti-Air" bonus is the sum of every equipment slot of every ship in the fleet (including the defending ship).

−
* Regular night battle and aerial combat are not affected by engagement forms. Nodes starting with Night Combat, however, do take engagement forms into consideration (despite it not being displayed).
 
−
*Equipping a {{Template:YellowPlane}}[[Saiun]] effectively makes what would have been Crossing the T (Disadvantage) become Head-on Engagement.
 
−
*It is speculated that the Engagement form also impacts accuracy.
 
−
 
 
−
==Day Combat==
 
−
*Day Combat consists of up to 3 phases: 1st Shelling, 2nd Shelling (if applicable), Closing Torpedo
 
−
*During the first shelling stage, the order of fire is determined by the ship's range.
 
−
:*Ships are arranged in order from Very Long → Long → Medium → Short → Very Short range.
 
−
:*The shelling order alternates from allied ships to enemy ships if able. If two ships on the same side have the same range, the ship that attacks first from between them is chosen randomly.
 
−
:*Very Short range only exists for enemy (all variants of [[Light Carrier Nu-Class]] and [[Standard Carrier Wo-Class]]).
 
−
:*Some equipments can extend the range of a ship, but in no cases will a ship's range decrease due to equipment.
 
−
*The second shelling phase (if applicable) has an initial firing order of all ships alive that are normally capable of attacking during shelling phase, alternating between sides.
 
−
*Ships unable to attack at all in the shelling phase (''e.g.'' all submarines, basic [[Transport Ship Wa-Class]], any carrier carrying no bombers) are not put into the shelling order (during both phases). Ships normally able to attack but rendered unable to (''e.g.'' damaged carriers carrying bombers) will be included in the shelling order but take no action.
 
−
*CVLs and CVs must be in good or lightly damaged condition in order to participate in either shelling phases; Armored Aircraft Carriers (''e.g.'' [[Taihou]]) may still attack while moderately damaged.
 
−
* The Closing Torpedo salvo is fired by all SS(V), DD, CL(T), CA(V), AV, [[Bismarck|Bismarck drei]], and the enemy [[Battleship Re-Class]].
 
−
:* Torpedoes are fired from all ships simultaneously, and accuracy (and damage) is affected by the selected Formation type.
 
−
:* Ships must not be moderately or heavily damaged to participate.
 
−
:* If any ship capable of firing torpedo is alive, this phase will occur (and text shown for start of phase), but if there is no valid target, no torpedo will fire.
 
−
 
 
−
==Night Combat==
 
−
*Night battle damage depends on both the Firepower and Torpedo stats for attack power. Consequently, DDs, CLs, CLTs and CAs have drastically increased strength at night.
 
−
*Any vessel at night must not be heavily damaged (red) before attacking in order to participate in night battle.
 
−
*Certain combination of weapon equipment ([[List of Main Guns by stats|Main Guns]], [[List of Secondary Guns by stats|Secondary Guns]], [[List of Torpedoes by stats|Torpedoes]]) will cause Cut-In or Double Attacks at night, greatly increasing accuracy and/or firepower
 
−
:*Auxiliary equipment (e.g [[List of Radars by stats|RADAR]], [[List of Anti-Submarine Equipment by stats|SONAR]], [[List of Anti-Submarine Equipment by stats|Depth Charges]], Searchlights, Turbines, Special ammunition, [[List of Anti-Air Guns by stats|Pure AA Equipment]], Torpedo Bulges, and [[Type A Ko-hyoteki|Midget-subs]]) will not affect the combination.
 
−
*If night combat nodes are anticipated, it can be very helpful to utilize specialized night battle equipment such as [[Star Shell]]s and [[Searchlight]]. [[Type 98 Recon Seaplane (Night Scout)]] is also an option.
 
−
*Damage against submarines is greatly reduced during regular Night Battles (to scratch damage).
 
−
*Formation damage modifiers do not apply in Night Battle (always 100% for regular shelling).
 
−
:*Nodes begin with Night Battle and in [[Combined Fleet]] Night Battle, Formation anti-sub damage modifiers apply.
 
−
::*The Engagement Form is not explicitly shown in Night Battle nodes, but the modifier will apply.
 
−
*The animation for ships equipped with 2 different torpedoes may be different but the damage output is still the same.
 
−
:*A [[Prototype FaT Type 95 Oxygen Torpedo Kai]] + [[61cm Quint (Oxygen) Torpedo Mount]] will show a cut-in animation of FaT+Quint+Quint and if equipped the other way around, the cut-in animation will show Quint+FaT+FaT. However, both animation produces the same damage output.

===<u>Attack Power Cap</u>===
 
−
Applies after the pre-cap modifiers. This is a '''soft limit''' on your effective attack power.
 
−
 
−
<u>Condition</u>: If your pre-cap attack power exceeds:
 
−
* '''150''' for Day Battle,
 
−
* '''300''' for Night Battle, ''or''
 
−
* '''100''' for Anti-submarine attacks,
 
−
then the Attack Power Cap will kick-in, reducing attack power. The calculation is:
 
−
 
−
<math>\text {Attack Power After Caps} = x + \sqrt {\text {Pre Caps Attack Power} - x}</math>, Where x represents the attack power cap.
 
−
 
−
Daytime Attack Cap (150) often makes it important to utilize [[Combat#Artillery_Spotting|Artillery Spotting]] since they boost your attack power '''after the cap''', while [[Combat#Night Combat|Night Combat]] can be very dangerous and/or rewarding due to having a very high cap (300) and the inclusion of torpedo to firepower for the basic attack power calculation.
 
−
 
−
===<u>Post-Cap Modifiers</u>===
 
−
In damage calculation, Post-cap modifiers apply''''' after the cap''''', but '''''before enemy armor reduction'''''. Thus they are very effective approach to boost your damage output (esp. against heavy armor enemies).
 
−
 
−
Currently, the post-cap modifiers are from:
 
−
* [[Combat#Artillery_Spotting|Artillery Spotting]] (aka. Day time special attacks)
 
−
* [[Combat#Critical_Modifier|Critical Damage]]
 
−
* [[Combat#Contact|Contact]] (Opening air strike)
 
−
 
−
==== Artillery Spotting ====
 
−
[[Combat#Day_Battle_Special_Attacks_.28Artillery_Spotting.29|Certain equipment setups]] provide a chance to trigger special attacks during day battle, giving boost to both attack power and accuracy. The damage modifiers are applied after the cap (150), thus very effective against heavily armored targets. Note that the ship requires at least 1 seaplane on board to perform Artillery Spotting (and thus will not trigger if all the seaplanes are shot down).
 
−
 
−
====Critical Modifier====
 
−
Most forms of attack (Torpedo, Shelling, Anti-Submarine, Preemptive Bombing) have a chance to crit the target. The damage modifier applies after the cap.

It should be noted that the '''critical message always appears when damage dealt is greater than or equal to 40,''' regardless of whether the 150% modifier was applied or not. On the other hand, the critical message will never appear when damage dealt is less than or equal to 14, even if the 150% modifier was applied.

====Contact====
+
{|class="wikitable"
−
*Contact takes place during the Aerial Combat phase. It increases bombing damage for all allied bombers.

!colspan=5|Accuracy Exceptions
−
*When successful, an image of the squadron performing contact is shown in the opposing fleet's formation indicator, with the text "触接中".
 
−
*Trigger conditions:
 
−
:*More air control than Air Denial
 
−
:*At least one carrier scout plane, seaplane scout, or torpedo bomber equipped.
 
−
::*Seaplane bombers, [[Type 3 Spotter/Liaison (ASW)|Type 3 Spotter]], and [[Ka-type_Observation_Autogyro|Ka-type Autogyros]] cannot perform contact.
 
−
:*It's thought that each carrier scout plane, seaplane scout, and/or torpedo bomber slot equipped is given a chance to trigger contact. Once successful, the bonus applied is chosen at random with weighting from all eligible equipped planes.

=====Notes=====
+
;Notes:
−
*{{Template:YellowPlane}}[[Type_2_Recon_Aircraft|Type 2 Recon Aircraft]] is useful in the case that the bombing damage bonus is desired while not removing the chance for T-disadvantage, due to its high trigger rate.
+
* Exact values were datamined from KanColle Kai for the Vita. Testing on the browser version has corroborated these results.
−
*With contact, the maximum attack power of bombing (before defense, critical and ammo) is around 180. With some luck, it's possible to sink even Ru-class Flagships (Armor = 99) in one strike without a critical.
+
** Values for Vanguard and the [[Game_Updates/2019/Feburary_27th|new]] Echelon are vague as they weren't introduced for KanColle Kai.

*In general, two bars of {{Ammo}} will be used in Day Battle for all ships, regardless of whether they attack or not.
 
−
*The Remaining Ammo Modifier affects all phases, including the opening Aerial Combat Phase.
 
−
*When entering night battle (from day), the Remaining Ammo Modifier on a vessel remains same as the previous day battle. One additional bar of {{Ammo}} is used for all ships in Night Battle, regardless of whether they attack or not.
 
−
*Because most battles will consume 2 bars of ammunition each, try to engage the boss before the 5th battle, or else achieving victory becomes unlikely (but not impossible).
 
−
*When attempting to defeat boss nodes, avoid night battles and whirlpools on the way.
 
−
:*Whirlpools will decrease either {{Fuel}} or {{Ammo}} bars of your sorted fleet, which can be disadvantageous in long sorties. Equipping one or more ships with RADAR can help reduce losses taken from these.
 
−
*Submarine-only nodes on limited-time event maps do not consume ammo in Day or Night Battle.
 
  
−
===Player Damage Taken===
+
===Flagship Protection===
−
While the above formulas and statements are generally true for damage taken by a player's ships, there are additional limits that apply to friendly units only.
+
'''Flagship Protection''' is when a non-flagship protects the flagship from being targeted by receiving the attack instead. When activated, a "curved shield" animation plays in front of the flagship's banner.
−
*For ships entering battle at ''chūha'' (orange) or higher HP:
+
* In [[Combined Fleet]]s, the escort flagship does not receive flagship protection in day battles.
−
:*Damage taken cannot reduce HP below 1 (''i.e.'' ship cannot sink).
+
* ''See [[Flagship Protection]] for more dedails.
−
::*At 1 HP. any further hits will become misses.
 
−
*For flagships, as well as ships with 20 morale or more (''i.e.'' not red face):
 
−
:*If the incoming damage is greater than or equal to current HP, it is instead reduced to 50%-79% of current HP, rounded down.
 
−
::*For multi-hit attacks, such as night battle torpedo cut-in attacks, each hit is calculated separately (and reduced if appropriate).
 
  
−
==Combat Equipment Setup==
+
===Vanguard Formation===
−
* [[Combat#Day_Battle_Special_Attacks_.28Artillery_Spotting.29|Day Battle Special Attacks (Artillery Spotting)]]
+
Vanguard is only available during [[Event]]s, and is usable on '''any map''' during this time.
−
* [[Combat#Night_Battle_Special_Attacks|Night Battle Special Attacks]]
+
* The modifiers on Vanguard Formation refer respectively to the '''"upper half"''' and '''"bottom half"''' of the fleet.
−
* [[Combat#Common_Setups|Common Setups]]
+
** For a fleet with 6 or 7 ships, the top row applies to ships 1 to 3, and the bottom row applies to the remaining ships.
−
* [[Combat#Full_Setup_List|Full Setup List]]
+
** For a fleet with 4 or 5 ships, the top row applies to ships 1 and 2 and the bottom row applies to the remaining ships.
 +
* '''Damage and accuracy of [[Support Fleet]]s are affected by the top row multipliers, meaning the 50% damage modifier is applied.'''
  
−
=== Day Battle Special Attacks (Artillery Spotting) ===
+
Vanguard gives an accuracy penalty to the opposite fleet. See ''[[Accuracy, Evasion and Criticals#Vanguard Formation|here]]'' for more details.
−
<!--[[File:KanColle-140425-17422431.png|thumb|Cut-in Type Observed Fire using 1Main 1Sec & Type 91 AP shell]]-->
 
−
Artillery spotting allows your ship with seaplanes to double attack (DA) and cut-in (CI) during day battle.
 
  
−
====Requirement====
+
The '''bottom half''' ships have an increased chance to be targeted.
−
*Air superiority (AS) or greater achieved in aerial combat phase
+
* The targeting is determined as follows:
−
*Not in heavily damaged (大破) state
+
**1. Target a ship from the fleet.
−
*Ship is carrying at least 1 [[List_of_Seaplanes_by_stats|seaplane]]{{Seaplane}}. (i.e. slots are not all at 0 remaining)
+
**2. If the selected ship is an upper half ship, target a ship from the fleet again.<ref>https://twitter.com/Xe_UCH/status/974571652229955584</ref>
−
*Certain equipment setup (see below)
+
* Target rate based on the above procedure (without other factor):
 +
* Bug: When the Vanguard is selected with a [[Combined Fleet]] (on night nodes only) the "'''number of ships'''" column is determined by using the  in the '''main''' fleet number of ships<ref>https://discord.com/channels/118339803660943369/178613137430282240/1286997214580703335</ref>.

*These are the basic setups used in the game. You don't need to exactly follow the placement (1st slot = main, 3rd slot = seaplane, etc) as long as those equipment are placed on the same ship.
 
−
*Any other setup variation will NOT change the attack mode or damage modifier. Feel free to add another auxiliary equipment when possible.
 
−
*Mixed Attacks provide chances for both day battle DA and CI.
 
−
*When either CI or DA is not triggered by chance, the ship will just do a normal single attack, dealing 100% damage.
 
−
*Trigger chances were estimated under the following conditions: '''''AS+;  FLoS = 300;'''  '''Non-flagship'''''<nowiki/>'''.'''
 
−
*The enemy is capable of doing Artillery Spotting on your fleet, both DA & CI.
 
−
*For more info on the Day Special Attack mechanics, you may visit page [[Artillery_Spotting|Artillery Spotting]].
 
  
−
====Trigger Chance of Artillery Spotting====
+
===Choosing a Formation===
−
* The flagship has ~15% higher chance in triggering Artillery Spotting.
+
[[File:Formation_Selection_Screen.png|thumb|right|Formation Selection Screen]]
−
* Losing Air Supremacy (AS+) to Air Superiority (AS) will lower the trigger chances by ~12%. Higher penalty for mixed attack.
+
When selecting a formation, its modifiers will be applied to the entirety of the next battle node whenever applicable. Picking another formation will discard any previous formation bonuses and penalties and use the new modifiers instead. Each formation has a general use-case archetype based on its modifiers.
−
* Higher fleet '''total''' LoS ([[Line of Sight]]) will slightly increase the chances, around 5% ~ 10% per 100 additional FLoS. Notice that FLoS equals to the sum of LoS stats from all the ships in your fleet. Bonuses from equipment are included in the calculation.  
 
−
* Equipment set up will affect the chances (see the table above)
 
  
−
===Night Battle Special Attacks===
+
* '''Line Ahead''': All-out surface combat formation.
−
Night battle special attacks allow your ship to double attack (DA) and cut-in (CI) at night. These special attacks are less demanding on the conditions, but more reliable and powerful than artillery spotting in the day.
+
* '''Double Line''': All-around, high accuracy formation.
 +
* '''Diamond''': Anti-Air formation.
 +
* '''Echelon''': Mixed surface-ASW combat formation.
 +
* '''Line Abreast''': ASW formation.
 +
* '''Vanguard''': Defensive/evasive & anti DD/[[PT Imp]] formation (event only).
 +
* [[Combined Fleet]] has other formations.
  
−
====Requirement====
 
−
* Ability to act at night
 
−
* Current HP > 25% of Max HP
 
−
* Certain equipment setup (see below)
 
  
−
====Set up and Attack Modes====
+
Other mechanics available on this menu:
−
Different set ups have chances to trigger different modes of attack. Attack modes are '''only''' determined by the prerequisite. Any auxiliary equipment (AP shell{{RedAmmo}}, seaplane{{Seaplane}}, AA gun{{GreenGunMG}}, etc.) can be added without changing the attack mode.

* When your set up fulfills the prerequisite for multiple attack modes, the one '''closer to the bottom''' of the list will be considered.
 
−
* If two simultaneous attacks are made, the total damage is displayed together but the Damage Cap (and Enemy Armor reduction) is applied separately to each attack.
 
−
* When either DA or CI is not triggered by chance, the ship will just do a normal single attack.

====Night Double Attack Chance====
+
=Victory Conditions=
−
Has a very high (~99%) and relatively consistent activation chance. <s>Activation rate decreases with damage states</s> (source required), but is not dependent on luck. This typically results in more consistent and higher average damage than cut-in setup for ships with normal luck values.
+
Once the battle ended, a damage gauge is displayed on the post-combat screen for each allied and enemy fleet, using the following calculation:

([http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Homuhomu123/Trigger_Rates_of_Night_Battle_Cut-In#I_-_Luck.2C_Placement_.26_Night_Battle_Cut-In_Chances source 1], [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Homuhomu123/Trigger_Rates_of_Night_Battle_Cut-In#II_-_Searchlight_.26_Cut-In_Chances 2])
 
−
:* Therefore, the torpedo CI chance for Yukikaze ''(60 luck)'' would be around the same level as Shigure ''(50 luck).''
 
−
* '''Either diminishing returns or a hard cap on luck over 40 for three gun cut-ins.''' ([http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Homuhomu123/Trigger_Rates_of_Night_Battle_Cut-In#V_-_Health_State_.26_Cut-In_Chances source])
 
−
:* Therefore, ships with high luck will suffer from 5~10% lower cut-in chances when using the 3 gun cut-in setup compared to two-torpedo.

====Anti-Sub Warfare====
 
−
Any enemy submarines will force Destroyers, Light Cruisers, and Torpedo Cruisers to target them. Cut-In and Double Attacks are ignored. In normal Night Battles, ASW damage is scratch damage only. In battles starting at night, Formation Modifiers apply.
 
−
 
 
−
=== Common Setups ===
 
−
* Common ship equipment setups and their purpose
 
−
* '''Destroyers'''
 
−
:* As destroyers do not have the ability to field seaplanes, have low firepower but high torpedo stats, and few equipment slots, their use in fleets is generally to meet composition requirements. Their common setups focus on Anti-Sub Warfare, Night Torpedo, or Fleet Anti-Air Support
 
−
:* A Mixture of [[List of Anti-Submarine Equipment by stats|SONAR and Depth Charges]] ({{Template:Sonar}}{{Template:DepthCharge}}) make your destroyers effective, accurate sub killers when enemy fleets contain Submarines.
 
−
:* On destroyers with high luck ([[Ayanami]], [[Shigure]], [[Yukikaze]]), 2 or 3 pieces of [[List of Torpedoes by stats|Torpedo Equipment]] ({{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}) will often trigger a potent Torpedo Cut-In attack in Night Battle.
 
−
:* When facing maps with many enemy fleets with carriers, destroyers can provide a considerable amount of fleet AA support using [[List_of_Main_Guns_by_stats#Light_Guns|high-angle mounts]] {{Template:GreenGunDP}} and [[Combat#Anti-Air_Cut-In|anti-air cut-in]] setups to reduce incoming bomber damage.
 
−
* '''Light Cruisers'''
 
−
:* Light Cruisers gain access to the Medium size Main guns to buff their firepower as well as seaplanes (with a few exceptions with regards to seaplanes, those being CLTs, Isuzu Kai Ni, Yuubari and both of the Tenryuu class), making Artillery Spotting setups feasible and effective against moderately armored enemy vessels.
 
−
:* For light cruisers facing enemy fleets, a setup with 2 Main guns and a Seaplane ({{RedGunMedium}}{{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) offers a potent double attack in both daytime Artillery Spotting and Night Battle.
 
−
:* For fleets without air power, one [[List_of_Main_Guns_by_stats#Medium_Guns|medium main gun]] and two [[15.5cm_Triple_Gun_Mount_(Secondary)|15.5cm Triple Gun Mounts]] ({{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:YellowGun}}{{Template:YellowGun}}) will maximize firepower while maintaining double attacks in Night Battle
 
−
:* The special class of the Torpedo Cruisers deserves some mention here: their specialty lies in their torpedoes and should almost always be equipped with a {{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}[[Type A Ko-hyoteki]] (to enable opening torpedo strikes). To diversify their damage output, typically two medium main guns and/or [[15.5cm_Triple_Gun_Mount_(Secondary)|15.5cm Triple Gun Mounts]] are equipped to increase shelling damage and enable Night Battle Double Attacks ({{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:YellowGun}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}).
 
−
::* Before a Torpedo Cruiser's final remodel, due to limited slots it's advisable to use [[Type A Ko-hyoteki]] and a torpedo ({{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}) to make the most of their preemptive attack.
 
−
* '''Heavy Cruisers'''
 
−
:* Heavy Cruisers see the introduction of 4 slot setups after remodeling and all of them feature the ability to launch seaplanes for artillery spotting. While they are still limited to the Medium main guns, their higher firepower and armor can make them solid combatants when Battleships are unavailable or overkill.
 
−
:* The go-to setup for most situations will be the 2 main guns, RADAR, seaplane setup ({{RedGunMedium}}{{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:Radar}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) which provides day and night double attack potential.
 
−
:* Certain Event bosses take additional damage when a ship is equipped with [[Type 3 Shell]]s. As heavy cruisers have access to these, a Heavy Cruiser may find swapping the RADAR for a [[Type 3 Shell]] ({{RedGunMedium}}{{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:GreenAmmo}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) to be effective against such targets (see [[Airfield Princess]]).
 
−
:* In the case of a battle occurring with Night Battle first, one option is to replace the RADAR and seaplane with two torpedoes {{RedGunMedium}}{{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}, which will lose the day battle special attacks but give the chance for powerful two-torpedo cut-in attacks.
 
−
* '''Battleships'''
 
−
:* Battleships feature a selection of Heavy Main Guns and massive resulting firepower in addition to the potent Armor Piercing shells which can cause brutal critical hits. Setups for battleships are similar to those of heavy cruisers, with one notable addition.
 
−
:* The Armor Piercing Shells that battleships have access to allows for the highly effective 2 Main gun, AP Shell, Seaplane setup ({{Template:RedGunHeavy}}{{Template:RedGunHeavy}}{{Template:RedAmmo}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) which has a more effective Artillery Spotting Cut-In, while providing better stats than secondary guns.
 
−
:* Note: Official tweets state that overuse of cannons larger than what a BB is meant for will make it "overweight" and incur a "minor" accuracy penalty. (''I.e.'' Too many 46cm or even 41cm cannons on Fast Battleships such as Kongou-class and Bismarck.)
 
−
:* As with Heavy Cruisers, the [[Type 3 Shell]] setup ({{Template:RedGunHeavy}}{{Template:RedGunHeavy}}{{Template:GreenAmmo}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) is effective against installation-type/land base enemies.
 
−
* '''Carriers'''
 
−
:* Planes. Enough Fighters to achieve Air Superiority or Supremacy, fill out with Torpedo Bombers on larger slots for preemptive bombing damage and/or Dive Bombers on smaller slots for shelling damage.
 
−
:* Torpedo Bombers and Dive Bombers are roughly equivalent to each other. While Torpedo Bombers have the advantage in the preemptive aerial bombing, their damage are dependent on number of surviving planes, making air superiority very important for them. In cases where Air Superiority is not feasible, using more Dive Bombers may prove more effective.
 
−
:* It is possible to equip [[List of Secondary Guns by stats|Secondary Guns]] like the [[15.5cm Triple Gun Mount (Secondary)|15.5cm Triple Gun Mount]] or the special [[Skilled Carrier-based Aircraft Maintenance Personnel|SCAMP]] to increase the carrier's range and put it higher in the Range Order shelling phase, which can be very useful for prioritizing the CV(L) damage when in a DD heavy fleet.
 
−
:* To save bauxite (especially in exercises against other fleets), a combination of two [[15.5cm Triple Gun Mount (Secondary)|15.5cm Triple Gun Mount]] and/or [[Skilled Carrier-based Aircraft Maintenance Personnel|SCAMP]] with a [[Saiun]] and a single bomber in the 4th slot can allow powerful shelling attacks at the cost of opening airstrike potency ({{Template:YellowGun}}{{Template:YellowGun}}{{YellowPlane}}{{RedPlane}}).

;Notes
−
Damage Gauge calculation: (Sum of enemy fleet HP reduced) / (Sum of enemy fleet HP at start of combat) × 100%
+
* B-ranks are the minimum victory requirements for:
−
In PvP, even those considered "sunk" are treated as having 1HP remaining for gauge calculation. (This is clearly visible against a submarine fleet.)
+
** Obtaining [[drop]]s.
−
Higher conditions have higher priority on this list. Unless specified, the condition assumes no friendly ship sunk.
+
** Clearing a map without a boss gauge.
 +
* Drops (both rate and pool) scale based on rank obtained. Some drops might be exclusive to higher ranks.
 +
* Perfect S (Total Victory) ranks count as a regular S-Rank.
 +
** Perfect S is fulfilled if all ships' final HPs on battle ended is greater than or equal to initial HPs on battle started.
 +
** So it is possible to obtain a perfect S if the only damaged ship has used a '''[[Repair Goddess]]''' in battle, and her final HP is still greater than or equal to her initial.

==Additional Explanation/Details==
+
The way MVP is determined is:
−
{{reflist}}
+
* The girl who deals the highest total damage (sum of all attacks during the combat) is awarded MVP. This damage is not weighted.
 +
* If multiple girls are tied for damage, the MVP goes to the topmost girl in the fleet order.
 +
* If the ship achieving the most damage would be sunk in the battle, MVP is rewarded to the next highest damage dealer instead.
 +
** As such, if no damage is dealt to the enemy, the flagship automatically receives MVP.
 +
* Battles ending in an E-Rank have no MVP.
 +
* In a Combined Fleet, each fleet has its own independent MVP.

Combat is a major component of the game in Kantai Collection. Combat is accessed through the Sortie menu by selecting a map to send a fleet. Multiple mechanics weave together to create an intricate combat dynamic. For more detailed explanations on the various combat mechanics, please see the individual pages below. Exercises also consist of one surface combat.

Combat Phases

On each node, combat will consist of several "Combat Phases". The number of combat phases depends on the node type, with each node type using a different set of combat phases and order.

  • See Nodes for more details.
  • Using a Combined Fleet will also affect the phases, especially during the shelling.

The combat phases are made out of:

☀ Day Battle Night Battle Power Night Battle

  1. LBAS's Jet Assault
  2. Fleet's Jet Assault
  3. Land-Based Aerial Support

  5. 2nd Shelling Phase
  6. Closing Torpedo Salvo
  1. Friendly Fleet (event only)
  2. Support Expedition*
  3. Night Contact and Spotting
  4. Night Shelling Phase

Formation Selection

If the fleet currently deployed has 4 or more ships, the player will be prompted to pick a fleet formation before every battle. Fleets with 3 or less ships will not have a fleet formation prompt and will default to Line Ahead.

  • Sunk ships and ships evacuated with a Command FacilityFleet Command Facility
    Striking Force Fleet Command Facility
    Elite Torpedo Squadron Command Facility     are not counted.
  • Diamond Formation requires 5 or more ships present in the fleet to be selected.
  • Enemy fleets do not have these restrictions. Enemy fleets in Diamond formation with fewer than 4 ships lack formation graphics on the battle screen.

Combined Fleets have special formations that differ from the standard single fleet ones.

Flagship Protection

Flagship Protection is when a non-flagship protects the flagship from being targeted by receiving the attack instead. When activated, a "curved shield" animation plays in front of the flagship's banner.

Vanguard Formation

Vanguard is only available during Events, and is usable on any map during this time.

  • The modifiers on Vanguard Formation refer respectively to the "upper half" and "bottom half" of the fleet.
    • For a fleet with 6 or 7 ships, the top row applies to ships 1 to 3, and the bottom row applies to the remaining ships.
    • For a fleet with 4 or 5 ships, the top row applies to ships 1 and 2 and the bottom row applies to the remaining ships.
  • Damage and accuracy of Support Fleets are affected by the top row multipliers, meaning the 50% damage modifier is applied.

Vanguard gives an accuracy penalty to the opposite fleet. See here for more details.

The bottom half ships have an increased chance to be targeted.

  • The targeting is determined as follows:
    • 1. Target a ship from the fleet.
    • 2. If the selected ship is an upper half ship, target a ship from the fleet again.[1]
  • Target rate based on the above procedure (without other factor):
  • Bug: When the Vanguard is selected with a Combined Fleet (on night nodes only) the "number of ships" column is determined by using the in the main fleet number of ships[2].
    • E.g. With 4 ship main fleet and a 6 ship escort, the "4 ships" column is to be counted.
Target Rate
Fleet position Number of ships
4 5 6 7
1 12,50% 8,00% 8,33% 6,13%
2 12,50% 8,00% 8,33% 6,13%

Choosing a Formation

Formation Selection Screen

When selecting a formation, its modifiers will be applied to the entirety of the next battle node whenever applicable. Picking another formation will discard any previous formation bonuses and penalties and use the new modifiers instead. Each formation has a general use-case archetype based on its modifiers.

  • Line Ahead: All-out surface combat formation.
  • Double Line: All-around, high accuracy formation.
  • Diamond: Anti-Air formation.
  • Echelon: Mixed surface-ASW combat formation.
  • Line Abreast: ASW formation.
  • Vanguard: Defensive/evasive & anti DD/PT Imp formation (event only).
  • Combined Fleet has other formations.

Victory Conditions

Once the battle ended, a damage gauge is displayed on the post-combat screen for each allied and enemy fleet, using the following calculation:


Gamage Gauge Formula
[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Damage}_\text{%} = \frac{\text{Fleet}_\text{HP lost} }{\text{Fleet}_\text{HP} } }[/math]
With
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Fleet}_\text{HP lost} }[/math] the total amount of HP lost by ships in the fleet,
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Fleet}_\text{HP} }[/math] the total amount of HP of the fleet at the start of the battle.
    • It may be lower than the maximum HP possible,
Notes

The following conditions must be met to attain each rank:

Victory State Rank Common name Conditions
Victory Total Victory: S
(完全勝利S) 		Perfect S
  • Sink all enemy ships, while taking no damage in return.
  • In Short Battle Nodes, take 0 damage.
Victory: S
(勝利S) 		S rank
Victory: A
(勝利A) 		A rank
Tactical Victory: B
(戦術的勝利B) 		B rank
  • Sink the enemy flagship and have fewer ships sunk than the enemy.
  • If the enemy flagship survives and the Damage % gauge is at least 2.5x less than the enemy's.
  • In Short Battle Nodes, take between 10% and 20% damage.
  • If any of the ships sink, this is the maximum rank obtainable.
Defeat Tactical Defeat: C
(戦術的敗北C) 		C Rank
  • The enemy flagship survives and the Damage % gauge is between 0.5x and 2.5x less than the enemy's.
    • Also applies when sinking any ship during the battle.
  • If the enemy flagship is sunk but the enemy has fewer sunken ships, as well as having the Damage % gauge between 0.5x and 2.5x less than the enemy's.
  • In Short Battle Nodes, take between 50% and 20% damage.
Defeat: D
(敗北D) 		D rank
  • If the enemy flagship survives and the Damage % gauge is less than 0.5x of the enemy's.
  • If the Damage % dealt is 0.05% (essentially 0).
  • If both fleets deal no damage to each other.
    • This applies to submarine vs submarine battles and air battle nodes.
  • Ships are sunk but not enough to meet the conditions for E.
  • In Short Battle Nodes, take heavy damage.
Defeat: E
(敗北E) 		E rank
  • The enemy flagship survives and the number of sunk ships in the fleet meets the minimum kill requirements.
    • Not meeting the requirements for a D Rank.
Notes
  • B-ranks are the minimum victory requirements for:
    • Obtaining drops.
    • Clearing a map without a boss gauge.
  • Drops (both rate and pool) scale based on rank obtained. Some drops might be exclusive to higher ranks.
  • Perfect S (Total Victory) ranks count as a regular S-Rank.
    • Perfect S is fulfilled if all ships' final HPs on battle ended is greater than or equal to initial HPs on battle started.
    • So it is possible to obtain a perfect S if the only damaged ship has used a Repair Goddess in battle, and her final HP is still greater than or equal to her initial.

MVP

At the end of combat, one girl is picked as the MVP. She gains exp and morale bonuses. For more details, please see Experience and Rank and Morale and Fatigue.

The way MVP is determined is:

  • The girl who deals the highest total damage (sum of all attacks during the combat) is awarded MVP. This damage is not weighted.
  • If multiple girls are tied for damage, the MVP goes to the topmost girl in the fleet order.
  • If the ship achieving the most damage would be sunk in the battle, MVP is rewarded to the next highest damage dealer instead.
    • As such, if no damage is dealt to the enemy, the flagship automatically receives MVP.
  • Battles ending in an E-Rank have no MVP.
  • In a Combined Fleet, each fleet has its own independent MVP.
