Overview
Ship Locking is a mechanic that forces Admirals to use a wider variety of ship girls. It was introduced during the Summer 2014 Event. It is meant to simulate the feel of a multiple-front operation where ship girls dispatched to one operation area are unavailable to be dispatched to others.
- Any untagged ship girls dispatched to an operation area will be tagged with the appropriate lock.
- This will apply immediately after the start sortie button is pressed.
- Ship girls dispatched on Support Expeditions will not be tagged.
- Ship girls will not be able to sortie to a map that does not match their tag for the duration of the event.
- This applies to both fleets in a Combined Fleet.
- Ship locking does not apply to Easy and Casual difficulties.
- Ship locking may not apply to Medium difficulty. Please refer to the current event page for more up-to-date information on this.
- Some maps may still prevent tagged ship girls from being dispatched despite not having a related locking tag.
- Example of specific tag restriction: E-7 of Summer 2015 Event restricted ship girls with ORANGE tags.
- Example of total tag restriction: E-6 of Summer 2014 Event restricted all tagged ship girls.
- Ship lock tags apply individually. Untagged duplicates may be sorted.
- Ship locks do not prevent a ship girl from being dispatched to exercises, expeditions, or normal sortie maps.
- Tagged ship girls were unable to be dispatched on event support expeditions during the Summer 2014 Event. This restriction has not been implemented since that event.
- The number of tags and their associated restrictions can vary from event to event. Please refer to the current event page for up-to-date details.
- On E4 of the Winter 2022 Event, it was possible to use 2 different tags (the "South-Western fleet" & "Shima Convoy Escort" tags) within the same fleet in all difficulties.
Since Summer 2021 Event, a new button is available in the Fleet menu during events, when selecting a ship. On the top-right corner, it can either display :
- all the ships
- only locked ships
- only available ships (with no lock).
Tips
- It is highly recommended to wait until ship locking information for the event has been figured out before committing. This can save important ship girls to be locked on "wrong maps".
- Having dupes of good ship girls can give more leeway with planning ship locks. Please refer to the help page for advice on which girls to dupe.
