This article aims to provide advice on the better ways to farm the main resources ({{Fuel}}{{Ammo}}{{Steel}}{{Bauxite}}) and consumables ({{IR}}{{IC}}{{DM}}{{IM}}).
 +
;As some general rules
 +
*[[Expeditions]] are the best way to gain most resources, with the advantage of being AFK compatible,
 +
*[[Quests]] are often the better way to farm consumables, especially screws {{IM}},
 +
*[[Sortie]]s generally provide the greatest hourly gain for any resource/consumable, but at the cost of more active playtime and some other resources.
  
This article aims to provide you with advice on the best way to farm necessary resources. As a general rule, [[Expeditions]] are the best way to gain resources. Sorties do provide a decent return on primary resources ({{Fuel}}{{Ammo}}{{Steel}}{{Bauxite}}) but it works out as trading away one or more primary resource for another.
+
;Notes
 
+
*[[#Other Consumables|Special resources]] are not detailed here, as they are difficult to "farm", please refer to each individual page for more details.
''Only repeatable quests are listed on this page. One-time quests are also a major source of secondary and special resources. Please refer to [[Quests]] for more details.''
+
*Only repeatable quests are listed on this page, as they are the most relevant in a "farming mindset",
 +
**One-time quests can also be a major source of resources. Please refer to [[Quests]] for more details.
 +
*Except for screws, monthly expeditions are also omitted here, as while they reward great amounts of resources and consumables, they are incompatible with a "farming mindset",
 +
*[[Events]] and limited-time quests are often a great way to gain all types of consumables, with some events introducing great resource farming spots.
 +
**Please refer to the current event's page for more details on such addition.

=General Tips=
 
===Sortie Tips===
 
===Sortie Tips===
* Having the lightest possible fleet is recommended to reduce costs and maximise gains.
+
Resources in sorties are gained from '''[[Resource Node]]s''' and '''[[Scrap]]ing''' dropped ships.
* [[Drum Canister]]s and [[:Category:Landing Craft|Landing Crafts]] will increase the resources gained from nodes.
+
* Using the lightest possible fleet is recommended to reduce the average sortie costs and so maximize gains.
** The T89, 11th Division and M4A1 do not increase resource gain.
+
* For resource nodes, using appropriate gear ({{Landing Craft}}/{{Amphibious Tank}}/{{Drum}}) is essential to maximize gains:
** Amount gained varies from map to map.
+
{{Gain Modifier}}
* You will need to '''complete a battle after the resource node''' in order to claim the resources.
+
{{Gain Modifier Sp}}
** Exceptions are resource nodes that are dead end nodes.
+
{{Gain Modifier Sp2}}
 +
* '''A battle has to be completed (win or loss) after the resource node''' in order to claim the resources (refreshing the game will not work).
 +
** Exceptions are resource nodes that are dead-end nodes.
 +
** Items are rewarded in any situation, so refreshing the game is fine to farm them.
 +
*In the following guide, {{Landing Craft}} and {{Amphibious Tank}} are fully interchangeable, and refer to "type A craft"
 +
 
 +
====1-6 Special Case====
 +
[[1-6]] is a unique case for farming, not listed in the following guide. Unlike all other node types, the final node {{MapRoute|N}} in 1-6 rewards great amount of all four resources {{Fuel}}{{Ammo}}{{Steel}}{{Bauxite}}, but only for the 7 clearing runs.
 +
*It is therefore highly encouraged to clear 1-6 each month to earn those easy to get resources,
 +
*1-6 additionally reward a {{PBox}} [[Present Box]] which is a nice asset for emergency situations.
 +
 
 +
====6-3 Special Case====
 +
[[6-3]] has ''"Aerial Reconnaissance Nodes"''' and not "resource nodes", being a special kind of nodes only seen here, giving ammo {{Ammo}}, bauxite {{Bauxite}}, and DevMats {{DM}}.
 +
*''See [[Air Reconnaissance|here]] for more details.
  
 
===Expedition Tips===
 
===Expedition Tips===
* Always try to sparkle for expeditions. This increases the great success chance which significantly boosts income. Your own tolerance for tedium will determine what is the minimum expedition length to sparkle for.
+
Expeditions come in various types and forms, being each more or less suited for some resources or even farming methods.
* Read the expedition requirements carefully. This can prevent wasted time.
+
*Regarding resources:
* '''Always remember to resupply your expedition fleet'''.
+
**Some expeditions will reward a '''"modest"''' amount of resources, but on a '''short timer''', being great on an "hourly gain" perspective, being more suited alongside '''active gameplay''',
* Raw resource returns is not as important as returns per hour.
+
**Some expeditions will reward a '''"high"''' amount of resources, but on a '''long timer''', being great on an "absolute gain" perspective, being more suited alongside '''AFK periods'''.
** The exception is when you will be away from the game for long enough to complete lengthy high-return expeditions.
+
*Regarding consumables:
 +
**Some expeditions will reward a "fixed" consumable, being rewarded 50 % of the time,
 +
**Some expeditions will reward a "GS" consumable, being rewarded with "Great Success" only,
 +
**Since no expedition rewards more than very few consumables, there is no "long timer" expedition adequate for farming, unless the consumable is a side reward of other resources.
 +
*For most expeditions, having a '''"Great Success"''' is advisable, especially for "short timer" ones.
 +
**This mostly requires sparkling ships, which is time-consuming, but still worth it when trying to reach greater hourly gains,
 +
**''See [[Expeditions#Success Conditions|Success Conditions]] for more details.
  
 
===Quest Tips===
 
===Quest Tips===
* Quests are an excellent source of secondary resources ({{IR}}{{IC}}{{DM}}{{IM}}).
+
Quests are mostly used to farm consumables ({{IR}}{{IC}}{{DM}}{{IM}}).
* While it is ideal to use the lightest fleet possible to maximise primary resource gains, it is more important to have a fleet that can reliably clear the quest for secondary resources.
+
* While it is ideal to use the lightest fleets possible to maximize primary resource gains, it is more important to use fleets that reliably clear the quests.
 +
 
 +
===Landing Craft Carriers===
 +
Here is a list of the Landing Equipment {{Landing Craft}}/{{Amphibious Tank}} capable ships, used in sorties and expeditions.
 +
*Note that {{Ship/Link|Kinu/Kai Ni}} has special behaviours in those cases.

The objective is to '''reach node D then retreat after node E'''. DO NOT attempt to farm node G. The [[maelstrom]] at node H has a chance to deplete all of your fleet's fuel. This is a fairly simple and straightforward map to farm but requires multiple fleets if you want to farm it non-stop. Take note that only the AO fleet guarantees routing to D. The AV fleet has random routing (weighted towards D), unless you bring 4 DE. But 4DE will significantly reduce your resource gains because they cannot carry drums or landing craft. The submarine in both fleet options will be able to tank every enemy you'll encounter.

Node {{MapRoute|D|green}} is a "normal resource node" rewarding 10~20 {{fuel}}

'''Recommended Fleet'''
+
*The maximum possible {{LandingCraft}} [[Landing Craft]] and {{Amphibious Tank}} [[Amphibious Vehicle]]s should be equipped to maximize fuel gain.
* 1AV 4DD 1SS
+
**{{Drum}} {{EquipmentLink|Drum Canister (Transport Use)|text=Drums}} work as an inferior substitute.
* 1AO 4DD 1SS
+
**Only using those equipment in the fleet is a viable solution.
 +
*When lacking enough Amphibious Vehicles for SS(V), Drum-capable SS are recommended as a substitute.
 +
*When using an AO, the reach rate is 100 %, but is only 80 % when using an AV instead.
 +
*Once the first battle is complete, "retreat" and "[[resupply]]" before going back out.
 +
If done correctly, this can result in an outstanding fuel gain that can surpass [[expedition]] gains.
 +
*Using "cheap" ships to refuel in the fleet (such as {{Class|Kamikaze}} and {{Class|Mutsuki}}) will optimize the fuel consumption/farming.
 +
*It is alternatively possible to use throwaway DDs with Drums that are never refuelled until they are ''critically damaged'', and then scrapped to save on resources (do not forget to remove their Drums before scrapping).

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.
  
This map can be used to farm both fuel and bauxite. The fleet used is the same for both resources. Fuel is '''obtained from node B'''. Take note that you '''do not have to retreat if heavily damaged at G'''. This is because node J is a dead end node and will end the sortie. Unlike 1-3, a majority of the fleet needs to be combat focused. While this means you cannot bring as many bonus equipment, the base resource gain is higher. This map will cost more buckets compared to 1-3.
+
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.

 +
**AV, CLTs, and CLs carrying {{Minisub}} [[Midget Submarine]] can be useful for taking out many of the ships in node {{MapRoute|G|red}} during the [[Otorp]] attack, to minimize damage taken.
 +
**Slow AV/AO needs to be [[Fast]] (see [[Improving Ship Speed]]).

**Due to the danger this path has, bringing {{LandingCraft}} to gain extra resources can be optional.

It is possible to use this map to farm both fuel and bauxite. This requires the use of either an '''AV''' or '''AO''' and will go through 2 combat nodes.

**Node {{MapRoute|A|red}} should not present much difficulty, however, node {{MapRoute|G|red}} may present some challenge to pass.
 +
**AV, CLTs, and CLs carrying {{Minisub}} [[Midget Submarine]] can be useful for taking out many of the ships in node {{MapRoute|G|red}} during the [[Otorp]] attack, to minimize damage taken.
 +
**Slow AV/AO needs to be [[Fast]] (see [[Improving Ship Speed]]).

Node {{MapRoute|G|green}} is a "normal resource node" rewarding 1 {{DM}}.
 +
 
 +
Farming this map can prove a bit frustrating because of the random routing at node {{MapRoute|C|purple}}.
 +
*It is recommended to farm for {{IR}} Buckets too, as they are rewarded on the off-route path (see above).
 +
*It is additionally recommended to bring 1 {{Surface Radar}} [[Surface Radar]] on each girl to diminish the resource losses on the storm maelstrom.
 +
*After reaching node {{MapRoute|G|green}}, '''it is possible to refresh the game to save time and resources'''.

**It is recommended to use CVL instead of CV(B) for 60 % of avoiding the maelstrom node.
 +
**The AV/AS are only needed to reach node {{MapRoute|N|green}} for {{Ammo}} farming (not 100% routing).

| At least 144 fighter power is needed for AS+ on node F. When enough fighters are used to reach this value, the other planes can be bombers to maximize damage.
 +
*It is recommended to use carriers with at least "'''[[Range|medium range]]'''", so that their attack takes priority over the other ships. ''See [[Range]] for more details.
 +
*The [[Radar]] can be used to block the largest slot and limit bauxite losses.

 +
==[[6-3]]==
 +
Nodes {{MapRoute|G|green|H|green}} are "'''[[Air Reconnaissance]]'''", a unique kind of node, rewarding {{Ammo}}, {{Bauxite}}, and {{DM}}.
 +
*Bringing {{Large Flying Boat}} {{Equipment/Link|Type 2 Large Flying Boat|PBY-5A Catalina|text=Large Flying Boats|link_category=Large Flying Boat}} and {{Seaplane}} [[Seaplane]]s ([[SPR]] and [[SPB]]) will increase the chance of getting more resources/materials.
 +
 
 +
While this map has the potential to return significantly more DevMats than 2-4, it is also costlier and more difficult. The enemies encountered are strong and any node has the potential to force a retreat. Furthermore, to claim the resources, the boss has to be at least '''B ranked'''. This can be a tall order when fighting BB, CA, and DD Hime with a light fleet.

| Because this map has no air power, the guns can be whatever is best on each DD. The wildcard can be anything that does not interfere with the double attack setup, usually a [[Radar]].

*This setup can alternatively be swapped with other [[Night Cut-In]] setup if available.

| [[Akitsushima]] and [[Nisshin]] are the only {{LFB}} [[LFB]] capable AV, and so should preferably carry as many planes as possible to maximize gains.

*Other AV are still viable, with the ability to carry either more {{SPB}} or one {{Minisub}}.

Sinking a ship loses it definitely, but also gives back all its current {{fuel}} fuel & {{ammo}} ammo (''see [[Resources#Sinking_Ship_Girls|here]]'').

+
*Therefore, when only looking for fuel & ammo, and not for steel, sinking ships will bring more resources than scrapping them.
 +
 
 +
This start revolves around the fact of dropping ships, unequipping them to scrap their stock equipment, and then sending them on regular farming locations to purposefully sink them and gain their resources.

*If done right, this can bring some extra resources from ship drops.

Latest revision as of 18:09, 9 October 2024

This article aims to provide advice on the better ways to farm the main resources (FuelAmmunitionSteelBauxite) and consumables (Instant repairInstant construction MaterialDevelopment materialImprovement material).

As some general rules
  • Expeditions are the best way to gain most resources, with the advantage of being AFK compatible,
  • Quests are often the better way to farm consumables, especially screws Improvement material,
  • Sorties generally provide the greatest hourly gain for any resource/consumable, but at the cost of more active playtime and some other resources.
Notes
  • Special resources are not detailed here, as they are difficult to "farm", please refer to each individual page for more details.
  • Only repeatable quests are listed on this page, as they are the most relevant in a "farming mindset",
    • One-time quests can also be a major source of resources. Please refer to Quests for more details.
  • Except for screws, monthly expeditions are also omitted here, as while they reward great amounts of resources and consumables, they are incompatible with a "farming mindset",
  • Events and limited-time quests are often a great way to gain all types of consumables, with some events introducing great resource farming spots.
    • Please refer to the current event's page for more details on such addition.

General Tips

Sortie Tips

Resources in sorties are gained from Resource Nodes and Scraping dropped ships.

  • Using the lightest possible fleet is recommended to reduce the average sortie costs and so maximize gains.
  • For resource nodes, using appropriate gear (Landing Craft/Amphibious Vehicle/Drum Canister) is essential to maximize gains:

  • A battle has to be completed (win or loss) after the resource node in order to claim the resources (refreshing the game will not work).
    • Exceptions are resource nodes that are dead-end nodes.
    • Items are rewarded in any situation, so refreshing the game is fine to farm them.
  • In the following guide, Landing Craft and Amphibious Vehicle are fully interchangeable, and refer to "type A craft"

1-6 Special Case

1-6 is a unique case for farming, not listed in the following guide. Unlike all other node types, the final node N in 1-6 rewards great amount of all four resources FuelAmmunitionSteelBauxite, but only for the 7 clearing runs.

  • It is therefore highly encouraged to clear 1-6 each month to earn those easy to get resources,
  • 1-6 additionally reward a Item Icon Present Box.png Present Box which is a nice asset for emergency situations.

6-3 Special Case

6-3 has "Aerial Reconnaissance Nodes"' and not "resource nodes", being a special kind of nodes only seen here, giving ammo Ammunition, bauxite Bauxite, and DevMats Development material.

  • See here for more details.

Expedition Tips

Expeditions come in various types and forms, being each more or less suited for some resources or even farming methods.

  • Regarding resources:
    • Some expeditions will reward a "modest" amount of resources, but on a short timer, being great on an "hourly gain" perspective, being more suited alongside active gameplay,
    • Some expeditions will reward a "high" amount of resources, but on a long timer, being great on an "absolute gain" perspective, being more suited alongside AFK periods.
  • Regarding consumables:
    • Some expeditions will reward a "fixed" consumable, being rewarded 50 % of the time,
    • Some expeditions will reward a "GS" consumable, being rewarded with "Great Success" only,
    • Since no expedition rewards more than very few consumables, there is no "long timer" expedition adequate for farming, unless the consumable is a side reward of other resources.
  • For most expeditions, having a "Great Success" is advisable, especially for "short timer" ones.
    • This mostly requires sparkling ships, which is time-consuming, but still worth it when trying to reach greater hourly gains,
    • See Success Conditions for more details.

Quest Tips

Quests are mostly used to farm consumables (Instant repairInstant construction MaterialDevelopment materialImprovement material).

  • While it is ideal to use the lightest fleets possible to maximize primary resource gains, it is more important to use fleets that reliably clear the quests.

1-3

Node D is a "normal resource node" rewarding 10~20 Fuel

  • The maximum possible Landing Craft Landing Craft and Amphibious Vehicle Amphibious Vehicles should be equipped to maximize fuel gain.
    • Drum Canister DrumsDrum Canister (Transport Use) work as an inferior substitute.
    • Only using those equipment in the fleet is a viable solution.
  • When lacking enough Amphibious Vehicles for SS(V), Drum-capable SS are recommended as a substitute.
  • When using an AO, the reach rate is 100 %, but is only 80 % when using an AV instead.
  • Once the first battle is complete, "retreat" and "resupply" before going back out.

If done correctly, this can result in an outstanding fuel gain that can surpass expedition gains.

  • Using "cheap" ships to refuel in the fleet (such as Kamikaze-class and Mutsuki-class) will optimize the fuel consumption/farming.
  • It is alternatively possible to use throwaway DDs with Drums that are never refuelled until they are critically damaged, and then scrapped to save on resources (do not forget to remove their Drums before scrapping).
Recommended Fleets
  • Kamoi/Souya, 4-5DD, 0-1SS(V)
  • 1AV/AO, 4-5DD, 0-1SS(V) (if lacking those AO)
  • Route = A D B E

1-3 Souya Immortal 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.

7-4

7-4 is a great "risk free" place to farm both fuel and bauxite.

  • See the 7-4 map page for more details.

4-3

Node B is a "normal resource node" rewarding 30~90 Fuel.

It is possible to use this map to farm both fuel and bauxite. This requires the use of either an AV or AO and will go through 2 combat nodes.

Recommended Fleets
  • 1AV/AO, 1CL, 2DD, 2CLT (Fast)
  • Route = A B G J
    • Node A should not present much difficulty, however, node G may present some challenge to pass.
    • AV, CLTs, and CLs carrying Midget SubmarineMinisub Midget Submarine can be useful for taking out many of the ships in node G during the Otorp attack, to minimize damage taken.
    • Slow AV/AO needs to be Fast (see Improving Ship Speed).
    • Due to the danger this path has, bringing Landing Craft to gain extra resources can be optional.

Node N is a "normal resource node" rewarding 20~60 Ammunition

When doing Development material DevMat farming, it is possible to further advance to node N with some fleets.

  • See below for more details.
Recommended Fleets
  • 1-2AO, 1AV/AS, 1-2CVL, 1-3CL(T), 0-2SS(V)
  • Route = B C G H I K N / B G H I K N (not 100% routing)
    • It is recommended to use CVL instead of CV(B) for 60 % of avoiding the maelstrom node.

3-2

Node B is a "normal resource node" rewarding 50~150 Ammunition

It is recommended to use a throwaway DD equipped with Landing Craft/Drum Canister, and one Repair PersonnelEmergency Repair Personnel
Emergency Repair Goddess
.

  • This saves on spending resources while completing the sortie. Alternatively, a set of good DD can be used, but they will need to be repaired, slowing down the farming rate.
  • If the battle on A critically damages the DD, select to use the Repair Personnel and continue onward.
  • The Repair Personnel is not consumed while doing this process.
  • Once complete, remove the Repair Personnel from the DD, that can now be scrapped, and repeat.

Another method is to send a fleet of 3-6SS(V) using Amphibious Vehicle. This method brings a bit greater return at a higher risk and has steeper requirements.

Doing this farming will bring a lot of "losses", which can impact the overall win rate and so the "event eligibility".

  • Also rewads the same quantity of Ammunition.

Not a great place to farm Steel. This is mitigated by the easy route, low cost, and the other resources gained.

Scrapping unwanted drops is an excellent source of Steel.

  • Larger ships will provide more steel when scrapped.
  • Remember that any equipped gear will also be scrapped in the process, adding some resources, unless the "unequip" switch is toggled.

Bauxite Bauxite

2-2

Node A is a "normal resource node" rewarding 10~20 Bauxite

  • This map is ideal for farming Transport kills for Bw3 and Bw4, as node B contains 2 Transports and can be reached consistently
  • Node A gives bauxite, and even with multiple carriers in the fleet, it is possible to break even on bauxite consumption and even make a net gain.
  • In addition, many medium ships (mostly CAs) will be dropped, that can be scrapped for a reasonable amount of steel Steel.

  • Using a Midget SubmarineMinisub on capable ships is recommended to reach an opening clear.
CVL Torpedo Bomber/Dive Bomber

As no air power is required, this setup maximizes the CVL's airstrike capability and gives them CVCI capabilities to clean up any survivors.
  • Using Landing Craft capable CVL is also a viable option to maximize gains.

7-4

7-4 is a great "risk free" place to farm both fuel and bauxite.

  • See the relevant page for more details.

4-3

Node J is a "normal resource node" rewarding 50~100 Bauxite

It is possible to use this map to farm both fuel and bauxite. This requires the use of either an AV or AO and will go through 2 combat nodes.

Recommended Fleets
  • 1AV/AO, 1CL, 2DD, 2CLT (Fast)
  • Route = A B G J
    • Node A should not present much difficulty, however, node G may present some challenge to pass.
    • AV, CLTs, and CLs carrying Midget SubmarineMinisub Midget Submarine can be useful for taking out many of the ships in node G during the Otorp attack, to minimize damage taken.
    • Slow AV/AO needs to be Fast (see Improving Ship Speed).
    • Due to the danger this path has, bringing Landing Craft to gain extra resources can be optional.

Nodes G H are "Air Reconnaissance", a unique kind of node, rewarding Ammunition, Bauxite, and Development material.

While this map has the potential to return significantly more DevMats than 2-4, it is also costlier and more difficult. The enemies encountered are strong and any node has the potential to force a retreat. Furthermore, to claim the resources, the boss has to be at least B ranked. This can be a tall order when fighting BB, CA, and DD Hime with a light fleet.

DD Small Caliber Main GunSmall Caliber Main GunWildcard Because this map has no air power, the guns can be whatever is best on each DD. The wildcard can be anything that does not interfere with the double attack setup, usually a Radar.
  • This setup can alternatively be swapped with other Night Cut-In setup if available.
SONARWildcard Wildcard It is advisable to have 1-2 DD on OASW duty, preventing some retreats.
CL TorpedoesTorpedoesMidget SubmarineMinisub/Seaplane/SONAR The CL can play most roles, being a crucial component to defeat the boss. It should therefore be focused for combat/night battle, carrying additional gears if possible (especially true for 4 slots CL).
AV Seaplane BomberBomber/Large Flying Boat/Midget SubmarineMinisub Akitsushima and Nisshin are the only Large Flying Boat LFB capable AV, and so should preferably carry as many planes as possible to maximize gains.
  • Other AV are still viable, with the ability to carry either more Seaplane BomberBomber or one Midget SubmarineMinisub.
  • Reconnaissance SeaplaneRecon can be used but are a waste of potential.

Fd6 Special Case

Unlike all other quests, Fd6 requires to perform an improvement in order to be completed, meaning that screws have to be consumed.

  • This quest is then to be taken as a "daily improvement 1 screw discount" for any improvement, saving screws in the long term.
  • In addition, as upgrading Ration OnigirisCombat Ration up to +6★ cost 0 screw, it is possible to farm some screw by upgrading a ration once a day while doing this quest.

Kuso Strat

Sinking a ship loses it definitely, but also gives back all its current Fuel fuel & Ammunition ammo (see here).

  • Therefore, when only looking for fuel & ammo, and not for steel, sinking ships will bring more resources than scrapping them.

This start revolves around the fact of dropping ships, unequipping them to scrap their stock equipment, and then sending them on regular farming locations to purposefully sink them and gain their resources.

  • If done right, this can bring some extra resources from ship drops.

Other Consumables

Special resources are not detailed on this page, as they are difficult to "farm", please refer to each individual page for more details:
