Boss Killing Fleet - 1FBB, 2CV, 1 CA, 2DD
1FBB, 1CV, 1CVL, 1CL, 2DD
Dealing with the Ne-Class Flagship The Ne-Class Flagship will be in a combined fleet which will consist of mainly destroyers with 1 CL and 1 CVL depending on the difficulty. As noticeable from the beginning, the Ne-class Heavy Cruiser Flagship has a very large amount of HP and is also very strong in combat and has the ability to launch Abyssal Falcon Planes at you from the start of battle (Think of it as like a CAV of sorts) However due to the fact the enemy fleet consist of mainly DDs, it should be possible to take out most of the ships without worry. However, in the final kill, one should prepare for a possible encounter with the Old Destroyer Princess being in place in the start of battle and may have the ability to launch a per-emptive torpedo strike at the start of battle. Most other fleets should remain the same and if you are able to deliver a strong amount of damage to the Ne-class Heavy Cruiser Flagship, it should go down without issue. Bring Support Fleets for the Boss node and In-route if there are any difficulties along the way.
