In this case, it's greyed out because Kongou has not reached the required Level.

Remodeling is a game mechanic that allows you to upgrade a ship girl to improve her combat effectiveness. Ship girls can gain special abilities and extra equipment slots on remodel. It is generally a good idea to remodel a ship girl when you can.

Overview

  • A remodeled ship girl will have Kai (改) suffixed to her name.
    • Some ship girls have a second or third remodel with different suffixes (e.g. Ni (二)).
    • Some ship girls have additional suffixes to denote a specialty.
    • Some ship girls will be renamed.
    • See here for more detail.
  • It restores a ship girl to full HP and supply.
  • It sets her morale to 40.
  • All equipped equipment will be placed in storage.
  • All modernization of firepower  , torpedo  , anti-air  , and armour   will be reset.
    • HP  , ASW  , and luck   modernization will be carried over.

Resource Requirements

All remodels cost varying amounts of ammunition   and steel  . Some ship girls require additional Development Materials  , Instant Constructions  , Gun Materials  , Blueprints  , or Action Reports  . Please see individual ship girl pages or refer to the remodel reference tables for the ammo and steel requirements.

Blueprints

Please see Blueprint for details on how to obtain them.

Convertible Remodels

Several ship girls have the ability to freely convert between remodels. These alternative remodels have different specialties and abilities. You'll want to carefully consider which version you will use most often.

  • Converting between remodels will still reset all firepower, torpedo, anti-air, and armor modernization.
  • The remodel will still cost ammo and steel. Some conversions will cost additional instant constructions, development materials, or blueprints.

Stats On Remodeling

Upon remodeling, you will find that the stats do not match the minimums stated in the individual ship girl pages. This is because the minimums listed are the stats for that remodel at level 1. Since remodels do not occur at level 1, the actual minimums differ. Please see the stats page for more details.
