Introduction
This article is meant to be a rough guideline to help you determine which girls you should be leveling. Included in this is which girls you should be using your limited blueprints, action reports and prototype catapults on. Event-only girls are listed separately due to their rarity. Any girl not listed here can be considered low priority.
The bare minimum you'll require for events is 7DD 1CL 3CA/V 4FBB 2CV 2CVL. This covers all combined fleet combinations with no extra capacity for ship locks or historical ships.
As a general rule, girls which require special resources (blueprint, action report, protoype catapult) are rated lower than their counterparts unless they outclass every other girl in that category. Unless otherwise noted, you should be getting girls to their highest remodel.
The advice in this article assumes you already have the girl. Don't stress about missing high priority girls.
Destroyer (DD)
DDs form the backbone of your fleet. They are your specialists that can be divided into the following roles:
- Combat
- Torpedo Cut-In
- Anti-sub
- Anti-installation (overlaps with Transport Combined Fleet)
- Anti-air
Some DDs can fulfill more than one role.

Destroyer Escort (DE)
All DEs are low priority for leveling. There's no reason to level them outside of fulfilling branching or expedition requirements. You'll want at least 4 DE at Kai and the rest can be leveled at your own leisure.
Light Cruiser (CL)
The primary role of a CL is to provide utility for the fleet. This is readily apparent in Combined Fleets that only allow a single CL to participate. As such, there is a limited number of CLs that can be considered useful. Like DDs, they can be roughly divided into the same roles.

Very Low Priority: Taigei is only a Submarine Tender in her Base form (will remodel to the CVL Ryuuhou) with weak stats. Her main purpose is to fullfill Quests d13 and D14 as well as obscure routing requirements in Event Maps from time to time, to which her level is largely irrelevant.
AX
Top Priority: As soon as you acquire Akashi, she should be leveled and remodeled
- Akashi Kai has a higher success chance on improving Equipment, saving valuable Improvement Materials
- The remodel also gives an additional Ship Repair Facility, enabling another ship to be repaired via Anchorage Repair
- Leveling a second Akashi for her Repair Facilities (for a total of 4) to be able to repair up to 5 Ships is also an option, but not high priority
- It is not necessary to level her beyond her remodel level
CT
Extremely Low Priority. Don't bother unless you're completely out of other things to work on.
- Their slow speed and poor combat stats generally leave them completely outclassed by other ships.
- Some potential for ASW thanks to their 4 slots, but you should not be using them at all unless shiplocking conservatively for an early ASW map. Again, completely outclassed by ships specialising in ASW.
- You should not be using them in PvP for the passive experience bonus unless you have absolutely run out of other things to level. You're better off levelling more useful ships instead of wasting a PvP slot on them.
