Expeditions

Unlocking Expeditions

You must complete Quest A4 (Have 1 light cruiser as your flagship, 6 ships total in your fleet) to unlock expedition mode. Each expedition will become available as soon as the previous expedition is successfully completed.

Notes

• You must meet the minimum flagship level, fleet size and combination requirement as specified in the conditions section in order to complete the expedition.
• After meeting the fleet composition requirements, you may add ships as you please. This can be useful to meet flagship level or combined fleet level requirements.
• You will not be able to use your main fleet for any expeditions.
• If all ships have high morale (i.e. they are sparkling) it is possible to achieve great success, granting you 50% more resources, double experience, and great success item reward (if available).
  

  Great Success
  • By achieving MVP twice, a ship is almost guaranteed to achieve high morale.
  •  The easiest way to do this is to run through stage 1-1 with a single ship. Note that leaving after the first node will always be a net loss of morale.
  • Sufficiently high morale will persist for multiple expeditions; see the Fatigue page for details (particularly Morale modifiers, point 2).

• Expeditions that require ships with Drum Canister equipped have a chance of great success if you equip at least 20%+ more than the minimum amount of canisters required.
• Remodeled DDs (other than Verniy) have the same fuel/ammo consumption as before remodel. Remodeling and modernizing your DDs makes getting high morale for them much easier.
• Expeditions will automatically complete if you enter the main screen with less than a minute remaining on the timer.
• Always resupply before embarking on an expedition otherwise you will likely fail.
• For expeditions that give one type of item (Devkit/Bucket/etc), you have a 50% chance of getting it.
  • For ones that give two types of items, the item listed on the left of the game screen will have 50% chance. The item on the right will always be rewarded if you achieve great success, but never for a normal success.
• Equipping ships with a Large Utility Boat (comes with Akitsu Maru after large ship construction) adds a 5% resource gather bonus, which is stackable as more boats are equipped (e.g. 2 equipped boats result in a 10% bonus) up to a maximum of 20% (4 utility boats).
• The EXP ships gained differ from the EXP displayed on the result screen depending on the expedition.There are 2 patterns in recieving ship EXP in which the second pattern is usually twice the amount of the first one. It remains unknown whether there is a way to get the second pattern or if the chance of getting the second pattern is completely random.  For example, Completing expedition 22 gives 600 EXP to the flagship and 400 EXP instead of 45 EXP to each other ship in the fleet.
• While the amount of Admiral EXP gained is significantly reduced upon failing an expedition, the amount of Ship EXP gained remains unaffected.
• Yes, you have to complete expedition 26 to unlock expedition 34 and expedition 35.

Support Expeditions

Support expeditions involve sending a fleet into an expedition, which will then provide additional bombardment during the first phase. For the November 2013 event, there were two support expeditions (109 and 110), and for more veteran admirals, expeditions 33 and 34. You will need to successfully finish expedition 18 to unlock expedition 33, and expedition 26 to unlock expedition 34. Currently, only expeditions 33 and 34 work in world 5.

There are two major differences between 109/33 and 110/34:

• 109/33 supports you in general node battles, the amount of battles they help with seems to be random.
• 110/34 however is for support in the BOSS NODE ONLY. This is generally the one you go for.

To start a support expedition, you will need to bring a minimum of two DDs (Destroyers) with the other 4 slots comprised of whatever you like, however the composition will affect what type of firepower support is provided.

1. Aerial Support

Sends a number of planes to carry out bombardment and torpedo attacks

• Condition: 3 or more CV, CVL or amphibious plane tender.
• Resources: Bauxite and 4 units of Ammunition

2. Long distance Torpedo Attack

High miss chance and High damage. Damage depends on torpedo stats

• Condition: At least 4CL, CLT or DD. And has total Torpedo stats above 250.
• Resources: 4 units of Ammunition

3. Support Shelling

If none of the aforementioned conditions are met, support fleet will use their main guns to shell the enemies. Damage depends on Artillery stats

• Condition: Not meeting any of the two conditions above.
• Resources: 8 units of Ammunition

Support expeditions will end if either of these two conditions are fulfilled:

1. You finish a sortie.
2. The timer runs out.
