Large Ship Construction Menu as shown

Construction is accessible from the Arsenal menu and allows building new ship girls. Note that not all ships are available from construction, some being drops from normal maps, and others event exclusive (see below for details).

Constructing a girl costs a selectable amount of the 4 main Resources as well as "development materials" Development material. It will also take a variable amount of time unless instant constructions Instant construction Material are used.

  • Every player starts off with only 2 construction slots. Up to 2 more slots can be unlocked by using a Dock Opening Key for each.

Construction Types

Two types of ship construction are possible, "Normal Construction" and "Large Ship Construction" (LSC), the former being the most used and cheaper one, and the later being the most expensive with the greatest results.

Normal Construction

"Normal Construction" is the basic construction method. Recipes range from 30-999 fuel Fuel, ammo Ammunition, steel Steel and bauxite Bauxite and each attempt costs 1 development material Development material. Speeding up construction costs 1 instant construction Instant construction Material.

  • If applicable, it is often more resource efficient to find a desired ship in sorties as a drop rather than building them.

Construction Theory

In normal construction, there are 4 pools determining the ship being crafted. Each group has exactly 100 unique ships and the available pools remain the same regardless of which Secretary used (excepted for the Z1-class). The selection of a pool is based on the resource input during the construction:

  • Pool 1 - 300+ Fuel, 400+ Steel, 300+ Bauxite,
  • Pool 2 - 400+ Fuel, 600+ Steel,
  • Pool 3 - 250+ Fuel, 200+ Steel,
  • Pool 4 - Do not meet any of the above requirements.
  • Note: The check is done from top to bottom, if the requirements of multiple pools are fulfilled, only the topmost one is used.

The constructed ship is selected in the pool by a value called "[math]\displaystyle{ ID }[/math]" which can go from 1 to 100, calculated by substating two random values:

[math]\displaystyle{ ID }[/math] Calculation
[math]\displaystyle{ ID = Rand [0 ; 100] - Rand [0 ; Res - 1] }[/math]
With
  • [math]\displaystyle{ Rand }[/math] the function returning a random whole number between its boundaries, included,
  • [math]\displaystyle{ Res }[/math] a whole number that is incremented by having low/high resource inputs of certain types, defined below,
    • The resources used to increment this value depend on the pool that has been selected.

In case [math]\displaystyle{ ID }[/math] is 0 or negative, the value will be converted back into a positive value and incremented by 2.

Which resources that are used to increment value [math]\displaystyle{ Res }[/math] is dependent on the pool that has been selected:

  • Pool 1: Steel Bauxite
[math]\displaystyle{ Res = MAX \Bigg( \Bigg| \Bigg\lceil \frac{Steel-400}{25} \Bigg\rceil + \Bigg\lceil \frac{Baux-300}{20} \Bigg\rceil \Bigg| ; 51\Bigg) }[/math]
  • Pool 2: Ammunition Steel
[math]\displaystyle{ Res = MAX \Bigg( \Bigg| \Bigg\lceil \frac{Ammo-400}{25} \Bigg\rceil + \Bigg\lceil \frac{Steel-600}{30} \Bigg\rceil \Bigg| ; 51\Bigg) }[/math]
  • Pool 3: Ammunition Steel
[math]\displaystyle{ Res = MAX \Bigg( \Bigg| \Bigg\lceil \frac{Ammo-200}{13} \Bigg\rceil + \Bigg\lceil \frac{Steel-200}{20} \Bigg\rceil \Bigg| ; 51\Bigg) }[/math]
  • Pool 4: Fuel Steel
[math]\displaystyle{ Res = MAX \Bigg( \Bigg| \Bigg\lceil \frac{Fuel-100}{10} \Bigg\rceil + \Bigg\lceil \frac{Steel-30}{15} \Bigg\rceil \Bigg| ; 51\Bigg) }[/math]

Source: [1]

Pratical Conclusion
  • Only 2 resources will have an effect depending on the pool. Changing the two others will have no effect as long as it does not change the pool.
  • Of the two resources that have an effect, one has a bigger effect than the other.
    • The effect is capped, above a certain threshold increasing the resources further will not have any effect.
  • The effect of changing resources will increase the drop of some ships by reducing the drop of others.
  • The direct consequence of the round-up is that the effect of resources works by steps starting from the minimum recipe plus one.
    • Increasing the resource of a recipe by an amount inferior to the step has no effect.
    • The steps are as follows:
      • Pool 1: 25 Steel, 20 Bauxite
      • Pool 2: 25 Ammunition, 30 Steel
      • Pool 3: 13 Ammunition, 20 Steel
      • Pool 4: 10 Fuel, 15 Steel

Large Ship Construction

"Large Ship Construction" (LSC) allows to build rarer "bigger" ships in exchange for more resources. Recipes range from 1500-7000 fuel Fuel and ammo Ammunition; 2000-7000 steel Steel and 1000-7000 bauxite Bauxite. Each attempt also costs either 1, 20, or 100 development materials Development material. Speeding up construction costs 10 instant construction Instant construction Material.

  • LSC is unlocked by completing quest F10.
  • Having empty construction docks slightly increases the chances of obtaining rarer ships [2].
  • Construction results are solely determined by the amount of resources and devmats used.
    • For few ships, an exact Secretary is required in order to be built, see below.

LSC Construction Theory

LSC works similarly to normal construction, there are 4 pools determining the ship being crafted. Each group has exactly 100 unique ships and the available pools remain the same regardless of which Secretary used The selection of a pool is based on the resource input during the construction:

  • Pool 1 - Fuel > [math]\displaystyle{ 2400+Rand[0;1200] }[/math], Ammunition > [math]\displaystyle{ 1050+Rand[0;900] }[/math], Steel > [math]\displaystyle{ 2800+Rand[0;1400] }[/math], Bauxite > [math]\displaystyle{ 2800+Rand[0;2400] }[/math];
  • Pool 2 - Fuel > [math]\displaystyle{ 2240+Rand[0;1120] }[/math], Ammunition > [math]\displaystyle{ 2940+Rand[0;2520] }[/math], Steel > [math]\displaystyle{ 4400+Rand[0;2200] }[/math], Bauxite > [math]\displaystyle{ 1050+Rand[0;900] }[/math], Development material > 20;
  • Pool 3 - Fuel > [math]\displaystyle{ 1920+Rand[0;960] }[/math], Ammunition > [math]\displaystyle{ 2240+Rand[0;1920] }[/math], Steel > [math]\displaystyle{ 3040+Rand[0;1520] }[/math], Bauxite > [math]\displaystyle{ 910+Rand[0;780] }[/math];
  • Pool 4 - Do not meet any of the above requirements.
  • Note: The check is done from top to bottom, if the requirements of multiple pools are fulfilled, only the topmost one is used.

The constructed ship is selected in the pool by a value called "[math]\displaystyle{ ID }[/math]" which can go from 1 to 100, calculated by subtracting two random values:

[math]\displaystyle{ ID }[/math] Calculation
[math]\displaystyle{ ID = Rand [a ; b] - MAX \big( Rand [0 ; Res - 1] ; 50 \big) }[/math]
With
  • [math]\displaystyle{ a,b }[/math] depend on the number of construction docks "open" (either empty or finished):
[math]\displaystyle{ a,b }[/math]
Nb dock [math]\displaystyle{ a }[/math] [math]\displaystyle{ b }[/math]
1 3 99
2 1 99
3 1 95
4 1 91
  • [math]\displaystyle{ Rand }[/math] the function returning a random whole number between its boundaries, included,
  • [math]\displaystyle{ Res }[/math] a whole number that is incremented by having low/high resource inputs of certain types, defined below,
    • The resources used to increment this value depend on the pool that has been selected.
    • Note that if [math]\displaystyle{ Res\lt 1 }[/math] then the result of [math]\displaystyle{ Rand [0 ; Res - 1] }[/math] is zero.

In case [math]\displaystyle{ ID }[/math] is 0 or negative, the value will be converted back into a positive value and incremented by 2.

In LSC every resource (including Development material) are used to increment value [math]\displaystyle{ Res }[/math] only the weight depend on the pool:

  • Pool 1:
[math]\displaystyle{ Res = \big[ (Fuel-3000) \times 0.003 \big] + \big[ (Ammo-2000) \times 0.003 \big] + \big[ (Steel-4000) \times 0.004 \big] + \big[ (Baux-5000) \times 0.005 \big] + \big[ (DevMat-50) \times 0.1 \big] }[/math]
  • Pool 2:
[math]\displaystyle{ Res = \big[ (Fuel-3500) \times 0.003 \big] + \big[ (Ammo-4500) \times 0.005 \big] + \big[ (Steel-5500) \times 0.004 \big] + \big[ (Baux-2200) \times 0.002 \big] + \big[ (DevMat-60) \times 0.1 \big] }[/math]
  • Pool 3:
[math]\displaystyle{ Res = \big[ (Fuel-4000) \times 0.003 \big] + \big[ (Ammo-3000) \times 0.003 \big] + \big[ (Steel-4000) \times 0.003 \big] + \big[ (Baux-1800) \times 0.002 \big] + \big[ (DevMat-40) \times 0.2 \big] }[/math]
  • Pool 4:
[math]\displaystyle{ Res = \big[ (Fuel-2000) \times 0.002 \big] + \big[ (Ammo-2500) \times 0.002 \big] + \big[ (Steel-3000) \times 0.002 \big] + \big[ (Baux-1500) \times 0.002 \big] + \big[ (DevMat-40) \times 0.2 \big] }[/math]
Note
  • The value between [math]\displaystyle{ \big[ x \big] }[/math] is round down if it's positive and round up if it's negative ([1.5] -> 1 ; [-1.5] -> -1)

Special Secretary

Some ships require a specific Secretary (1st fleet flagship) in order to be crafted.

  • For any other construction, the Secretary is independent of the crafting result.

  • Several ships are currently dropable for a limited time, see here.
  • Some ships may become buildable or droppable in future updates.

Building Recipes

Disclaimers
  • These recipes are not guaranteed to give the exact ship wanted in any reasonable number of crafting attempts.
  • Percentages listed are sourced from the drop databases and may not be representative of the real craft rates.
  • Some ships require special Secretary to be crafted (see here).

Large Ship Construction Recipes

Due to their nature and expansiveness, data on LSC recipes is relatively low and may not be fully accurate or up to date.

  • Please note that all ships craftable via LSC often come back as Event rare drops.

Using any of the above mentioned Helper is either required or discouraged, depending on the targeted craft.

  • When crafting a ship requiring a helper, then said helper is mandatory,
  • However, when crafting any other ship, using those helpers will decrease the crafting rate of the targeted ship.
Notes
  • Regarding the use of 1/20/100 Development material DevMats:
    • The amount used affects the pool of craftable ships, with some ships only appearing with 20+ DevMats.
    • Using 100 DevMats does give better rates for some heavier ships, but the gain is often too marginal to justify this cost increase.
    • E.g.:
      • I-401 chances are improved with 1 dev mat.
      • Yamato appears with all dev mat inputs.
      • Musashi, Bismarck, and Warspite only appear with 20+ DevMat.
      • Aiming for Bismarck or Warspite before Musashi can help save both resources and DevMats as Musashi can always appear from a Bismarck attempt, but not necessarily the other way around (if a German ship is not used).

Theorical Recipes

The following are optimized recipes using data from the Kancolle Kai version [7].

The general rule for using the recipes:

  • The "minimum recipes" are the minimum resources needed to obtain the desired ship.
  • Increasing the resource does increase the rate and is recommended to some extent.
    • Depending on the pool, increasing some resources is more effective than others.
    • Like normal construction, resources should be increased by step. Those steps are here collapsed in the recipes table below.
    • Unless capped, it is not recommended to increase the Development material DevMats cost.
  • Unless stated otherwise having more construction docks empty increases the rate.
    • That means LSC should not be done one after another because the "in construction" docks will decrease the rate.

Notes
  • This recipe should be used first if neither Yamato nor Musashi are in possession.
  • If Musashi is constructed first, use the "Yamato only" recipe below for Yamato instead.
  • Using the adequate secretary with those recipes can construct Bismarck or Warspite.
    • Note that it will greatly reduced the rate of both Yamato and Musashi.

I-401
FuelAmmunitionSteelBauxiteDevelopment materialNote
28804160456016901Recommended recipe (& minimum)
Notes
  • Unlike other rare ships, I-401 is not at the beginning of the pool (as Yamato is).
    • So the best recipe is the minimum one.
Kamoi & Akitsu Maru
FuelAmmunitionSteelBauxiteDevelopment materialNote
36701950425052001Recommended recipe (& minimum)
Notes
  • Unlike other rare ships, Kamoi and Akitsu Maru are not at the beginning of the pool (as Taihou is).
    • So the best recipe is the minimum one.
  • For Kamoi, the number of free docks should be a minimum (ideally 1).
  • For Akitsu Maru, the number of free docks should be maximum.
  • Akitsu Maru is available in other pools but her rate is the highest in the carrier pool.

Sources
  • Based on Poi-Statistics.
  • Kancolle DB reports include all development materials and Secretary used. This is especially noticeable for BB recipes where the number of attempts with/without Z1/Z3 skew the results towards either Bismarck or Yamato-class significantly. However, since the data sets are still significantly less biased than wikiwiki reports, it gives a better idea of what to expect.
