Help:Ship Farming

This article aims to provide advice on the better ways to farm for certain ships in order to use them as Modernization fodder. Those ships notably include:

• Maruyu for luck modding,
• Mizuho & Kamoi for HP modding,
• DE for HP/ASW/Luck modding.

Maruyu

Maruyu Kai is the best way to modernize reliably the luck of any ship in the game.

7-4

How DE drop works

DE drops in 7-4 is a complicated mechanic. To farm for them efficiently, you need to know how their drop mechanic really works. For full details of how it works, you can check out these articles [1], [2]. But here is the TLDR version:

• If you own **3 copies** of a DE and start farming for her 4th copy onwards, her drop rate will be decreased (This is known as **possession penalty**). So try to **keep 2 copies** of each DE at best.
• For every time that DE is **scrapped, sunk or fed away using modernization**, the game will add **+1** to your **cumulative decommission** counter for that DE (This is known as **cumulative penalty**). If this counter **reaches 10 or more**, the rate of that DE drop will also be decreased. Keep this in mind if you fed away too many of that DE.
