− | + | ||
+ | =Carrier Night Attacks= | ||
+ | Normally carriers cannot attack at night unless certain conditions are fulfilled. There are three different kinds of carrier night attacks: Standard Shelling, Swordfish Night Attacks, and Carrier Night Air Attacks. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is not to be confused with [[Combat/Artillery Spotting#Aircraft Carrier Cut-in|Carrier Cut-In Attacks]] which are for daytime shelling. | ||

+ | * Like day battle, CV(L) '''cannot trigger''' the attack when {{color|orange|'''moderately damaged (中破)'''}}, but CVB still can. | ||
+ | * The attack power is calculated using the [[Damage_Calculations#Carrier_Night_Air_Attacks|'''carrier night air attack''']] formula. | ||
+ | ** Only the base stats of the carriers, the stats of the night planes, and the count of each night plane are taken into account. | ||
+ | ** Planes in 0-size slots are ignored. | ||
+ | * [[Plane Proficiency]] still affects the critical rate. | ||
+ | * It can trigger regardless of the result of the [[Aerial Combat#Fighter Combat|fighter combat]] phase in day. | ||
+ | * It can trigger even if no bombers are left. | ||
+ | * CV(L) will ignore submarines to target surface ships with this attack. | ||
+ | ** Uniquely, {{Ship/Link|Gambier Bay Mk.II}} will focus on submarines using a shelling attack | ||
+ | ** If the carrier can also natively carry out "Standard Shelling", and no other valid target is available, the carrier will switch back to the shelling against submarines. | ||
+ | * May activate [[#"New Type" Cut-ins|Night Carrier Cut-Ins]]. | ||
=Night Special Attacks= | =Night Special Attacks= | ||
+ | When using special equipment setups, ships may perform one of multiple special attacks at night. These attacks are often referred to as '''Cut-Ins''' due to the way the equipment is displayed on the screen before the attacks are performed. Particular cut-ins are often referred to by their acronym, such as TCI for Torpedo Cut-In, GCI for Gun Cut-In, DA for Double Attack, etc... | ||
− | + | Compared to Day cut-ins (''[[Artillery Spotting]]''), Night cut-ins do not require any particular [[Air State]], relying solely on the equipment restrictions and the stats of the ship performing it. Do note that the specific equipment being shown during the cut-ins animation have no influence on the damage output. | |
− | + | Cut-ins may be activated during a ship's turn and will override its normal single attack. | |
− | + | In addition, all '''"[[Special Attacks]]" (Touches)''' can trigger at night, with the "[[Special Attacks#Kongou-class Touch|''Kongou''-class Night Assault]]" being only available during night battle. | |
==Setups and Attack Types== | ==Setups and Attack Types== | ||
+ | Different setups have different conditions, trigger rates, damage, and number of hits. Cut-ins are solely determined by the attack's prerequisites. | ||
− | + | For a given cut-in, any other equipment can be added to the remaining slots. Be wary that adding certain equipment may change the Cut-ins rolled for. | |
+ | If the setup fulfills multiple prerequisites, the Cut-in ''closer to the bottom of the list'' will be used. Additionally, each ship will roll for '''"New Type"''' Cut-ins first, if possible. | ||

+ | * Custom icons are used for Carrier Cut-ins for clarity's sake. | ||
+ | ** {{AnyBomber}} is used to indicate either a '''{{Torpedo Bomber}} {{Equipment/Link|Swordfish|Swordfish Mk.II (Skilled)|Swordfish Mk.III (Skilled)|text=Swordfish|size=150px}}''' or '''{{Dive Bomber}}{{Equipment/Link|Zero Fighter Model 62 (Fighter-bomber / Iwai Squadron)|link=Zero Fighter Type 62 (Fighter-bomber/Iwai_Squadron)|text=Iwai FB}}'''. | ||

− | + | Special attacks that hit twice will roll independently to determine hit, critical chance, and armor penetration. Although their animations appear as single hits, Torpedo Cut-In, and Mixed Torpedo Cut-In are actually composed of 2 separate hits, with their damage added together in-game. | |

Latest revision as of 12:54, 20 October 2024
Night Battle Breakdown
When the fleet pursues the enemy into Night Battle (夜戦, yasen), or enters special Nodes such as Night Nodes or Night to Day Nodes, the fleet will fight at night.
The Night Battle has the following structure:
- Friendly Fleet (event only)
- Support Expedition (if the battle starts at night only)
- Night Contact and Spotting
- Night Shelling Phase
In case neither fleets meet the requirements, the sub-phase will be skipped.
Night Contact and Spotting
When the fleet is equipped with certain equipment, additional effects are triggered for the duration of the Night Battle. The relevant equipment and their effect are listed below.
- More information on the actual effects on cut-in rate of each piece of equipment can be found in the Night Shelling Special Attacks section.
- See Accuracy, Evasion and Criticals for details on other effects.
Equipment | Effect | Requirements | |
---|---|---|---|
Star Shell | |||
Prototype Night Zuiun (Attack Equipment) |
| ||
Searchlights |
|
||
Skilled Lookouts |
|
| |
Night Recons |
|
|
Night Shelling Phase
Following the battle preliminary stages, Night Shelling proper will begin. Similar to Day Battle, attacks performed by ships are shelling attacks.
Some rules are applied to shelling attacks:
- The Shooting Order is altered, with notably Heavily Damaged, evacuated, and sunk ships performing an actionless turn.
- CV(B/L) are unable to participate in night battles, unless specific requirements are met (see below).
- Shelling attacks that target submarines will always deal Scratch Damage, making it impossible to sink submarines during Night Battle.
- This rule is void if the player's fleet is a Combined Fleet.
- Friendly Fleets can also ignore this rule, and may damage submarines.
- Ships with 0 stat are unable to participate in night battle.
- Currently, this is only observable against the Wa-Class Transport Ship.
- Some ship types gain bonus Evasion :
- CA(V) gain +5 evasion.
- DD gain +10 evasion if equipped with a Skilled Lookout
and a Surface Radar.
- CA(V) equipped with IJN 20.3 cm guns
gain special Hidden Fit Bonuses.
In addition to that, Night Battle is not affected by the Day Battle's Engagement, but is still affected by the Formation.
Carrier Night Attacks
Normally carriers cannot attack at night unless certain conditions are fulfilled. There are three different kinds of carrier night attacks: Standard Shelling, Swordfish Night Attacks, and Carrier Night Air Attacks.
This is not to be confused with Carrier Cut-In Attacks which are for daytime shelling.
Trigger Requirements
- Standard Shelling
- Regardless of their equipment, those CV(L) are able to attack at night, using the surface night battle attack formula:
- Using the plane attack animation: Kaga Kai Ni Go, the Taiyou-class Kai Ni
, and Lexington/Kai
,- Uses a plane attack animation (even when none is equipped, sending an "invisible plane"), unless using a cuit-in[1].
- Using the surface shelling animation: Graf Zeppelin/Kai
, the Saratoga (base),
- Using the plane attack animation: Kaga Kai Ni Go, the Taiyou-class Kai Ni
- This attack can be triggered even when moderately damaged (中破).
- The attack power is relatively weak.
- Plane Proficiency will not affect the critical rate.
- If the carrier can carry ASW Shelling, it will focus on submarines if any are present.
- May be set up to activate Cut-Ins like the Double Attack.
- Swordfish Night Attack
- This is just limited to Ark Royal/Kai
when equipped with a Swordfish
. - This attack cannot be triggered when moderately damaged (中破).
- The attack power is calculated using the surface night battle damage formula but only taking into account Ark Royal's base firepower and the Swordfish's stats and improvements[2].
- Plane Proficiency still affects the critical rate.
- May be set up to activate Cut-Ins like the Double Attack.
On a side note, unlike the browser version, on the arcade version the attack is very powerful.
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Will use the surface shelling animation when attacking the Lycoris Princess or the Abyssal Jellyfish Princess, useless using a cut-in or NOAP.

- ↑ https://twitter.com/myteaGuard/status/1358025976374939649
- Carrier Night Air Attack
- When equipped with a NOAP
along with at least one Night Plane, all carriers are able to perform carrier night air attacks.- Night Carriers (CVN) are CV/CVL capable of Carrier Night Air Attacks without needing a NOAP
. They are Saratoga Mk.II, Akagi Kai Ni E, Kaga Kai Ni E, and Ryuuhou Kai Ni E.
- Night Carriers (CVN) are CV/CVL capable of Carrier Night Air Attacks without needing a NOAP
- Like day battle, CV(L) cannot trigger the attack when moderately damaged (中破), but CVB still can.
- The attack power is calculated using the carrier night air attack formula.
- Only the base stats of the carriers, the stats of the night planes, and the count of each night plane are taken into account.
- Planes in 0-size slots are ignored.
- Plane Proficiency still affects the critical rate.
- It can trigger regardless of the result of the fighter combat phase in day.
- It can trigger even if no bombers are left.
- CV(L) will ignore submarines to target surface ships with this attack.
- Uniquely, Gambier Bay Mk.II will focus on submarines using a shelling attack
- If the carrier can also natively carry out "Standard Shelling", and no other valid target is available, the carrier will switch back to the shelling against submarines.
- May activate Night Carrier Cut-Ins.
Night Special Attacks
When using special equipment setups, ships may perform one of multiple special attacks at night. These attacks are often referred to as Cut-Ins due to the way the equipment is displayed on the screen before the attacks are performed. Particular cut-ins are often referred to by their acronym, such as TCI for Torpedo Cut-In, GCI for Gun Cut-In, DA for Double Attack, etc...
Compared to Day cut-ins (Artillery Spotting), Night cut-ins do not require any particular Air State, relying solely on the equipment restrictions and the stats of the ship performing it. Do note that the specific equipment being shown during the cut-ins animation have no influence on the damage output.
Cut-ins may be activated during a ship's turn and will override its normal single attack.
In addition, all "Special Attacks" (Touches) can trigger at night, with the "Kongou-class Night Assault" being only available during night battle.
Setups and Attack Types
Different setups have different conditions, trigger rates, damage, and number of hits. Cut-ins are solely determined by the attack's prerequisites.
For a given cut-in, any other equipment can be added to the remaining slots. Be wary that adding certain equipment may change the Cut-ins rolled for. If the setup fulfills multiple prerequisites, the Cut-in closer to the bottom of the list will be used. Additionally, each ship will roll for "New Type" Cut-ins first, if possible.
- is used to indicate a Main Gun.
- is used to indicate a Secondary Gun.
- is used to indicate a Torpedo (including Submarine Torpedoes).
- Sub_LM is used to indicate a Late-Model Submarine Torpedo specifically.
- Surface is used to indicate a Surface Radar
- is used to indicate Night Seaplane Bomber.
- Custom icons are used for Carrier Cut-ins for clarity's sake.
- is used to indicate either a Swordfish
or Iwai FB. - is used to indicate a Night Fighter.
- is used to indicate a Night Torpedo Bomber.
- is used to indicate the Photobomber.
- is used to indicate either a Swordfish
Special attacks that hit twice will roll independently to determine hit, critical chance, and armor penetration. Although their animations appear as single hits, Torpedo Cut-In, and Mixed Torpedo Cut-In are actually composed of 2 separate hits, with their damage added together in-game.
"New Type" Cut-ins
The "New Type" Cut-ins are the Cut-ins introduced with the implementation of Saratoga Mk.II onwards. From top to bottom, each eligible Cut-in will be rolled if the previous roll has failed. If all rolls fail, then an additional single roll for a "Original Type" Cut-in is performed.
Do note that Night Carrier Cut-ins require a CV(L/B) with Night Operation capabilities by either equipping a NOAP
or being a CVN.
- Carriers that can perform Surface Shelling attacks at night will not perform Carrier Cut-ins without said Night Operation capabilities.
- Night Zuiun CI
- Can only be triggered on BBV, CAV, CL, or AV[1].
- The ship must not be more than lightly damaged (小破).
- Performs 2 attacks against random enemies.
- The same enemy can be targeted twice.
- Drops a Star Shell during the attack.
If not applicable, ships will skip rolling for "New Type" Cut-ins altogether and only roll for "Original Types" instead.

- Derivated set-ups
When using an SLO or TSLO in the Reinforcement Expansion, it is possible to "mix" the Destroyer Cut-ins, making 2 cut-ins available to trigger at once, and so increasing the odds of having at least one that activates during Night Battle.
Those set-ups are:
GTRL is sometimes referred to as "GUiTaRSolo" for "Gun, Torp, Radar, and Skilled Lookouts (SLO)".
Do note that if a DD is equipped with a Surface Surface Radar AND a Skilled Lookout
, then it gain a post-cap evasion bonus during Night Battle.
Original Cut-ins
In contrast with the "New Type" Cut-ins, "Original" Cut-ins are only rolled once, even if multiple setup prerequisites are met. The setup used will be the top-most that meets the prerequisites. If this roll fails, the ship will perform a Single Attack.
