This list assumes that the reader is a completely new player looking to prioritise ship levelling. For tailored advice, it is advisable to ask for help on the Discord server instead.
+
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. Any girl not listed here is considered very low priority and should be left for last.
  
−
Discounting Support Expeditions, it is recommended to have the following quantity of each class ready for an Event (Easy Mode): xxDD, 2CL, xxCA, xxBB, xxCV.
+
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'''.

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. Any girl not listed here is considered very low priority and should be left for last.

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.

Light Cruisers

CLs face the tightest competition for slots in a fleet as escort fleets traditionally allow only a single CL. There exists a large gulf in quality between the best and the worst picks for a CL slot. The very best CLs are capable of enhancing the performance of the entire fleet with torpedoes or a fourth slot.

Very High Abukuma Kai 2 D, RC Combat Opening Torpedo, Daihatsu/Tank Carrier
Very High Sendai Kai 2 D, RC Eq Valuable for equipment, mediocre combat performance otherwise
