Kongou-class Special Attack

On Kai Ni B/C, the Kongou-class gains a special attack called "Night Assault":

  • A Kongou-class Kai Ni B/C must be flagship.
    • Flagship of the 2nd fleet in combined fleets.
  • Another "Touch Helper" must be in the 2nd position.
  • Both must not be more than lightly damaged (小破).
  • It must be a Night Battle.
  • There must be 5 or more surface ships in the fleet.
    • There must be no more than 1 submarine in 6-ship fleets. In 7-ship fleets, only 2 submarines are allowed.
    • There must be no more than 1 surface ship in the fleet sunk or evacuated via Command Facility FCFFleet Command Facility
      Striking Force Fleet Command Facility
      during a sortie, making the remaining total < 5. Only ships in the escort fleet are counted for combined ones.

If triggered:

  • The flagship will do a 1st attack,
  • The 2nd battleship will do a 2nd attack,
  • Each attack targets a ship at random,
  • If all enemies sunk, then touch stops early.

Despite several devs' announcements, other equipment surch as the 35.6cm Twin Gun Mount Kai 2 and "advance Radars" do not provide any bonus to the touch [2].

  • The modifiers are pre-cap.
  • There is also an Accuracy Accuracy bonus of 1.35~1.4 [3].

  • The attack will consume extra ammo from both participating battleships when triggered. The total ammo consumption will be x1.2 of the original ammo consumption of those ships when the attack is triggered, hence:
    • If it is triggered in a night battle in a normal node, it costs 6 % extra ammo.
    • If it is triggered in a night battle node, it costs 2 % extra ammo.

The Night Assault can be:

  • Activated in the same battle as another separate special attack.
  • Activated twice per sortie, during night battle only:[1][2][3][4][5]

  • Kongou appears as one of the main characters in Merchandise.
  • Kongou - along with other ships voiced by Nao Touyama - was featured in the first KanColle Drama CD, titled "Hiei's Curry" (比叡、カレーを作る). Due to one seiyuu doing all the voices, the CD's short story is also referred to as "One Nao Show". A translated version of the short story can be found here.
