Tips

Regarding the map

  • Requires sinking boss flagship 4 times to clear.
    • Once the map is cleared, you can no longer roll the Final Form at the boss node
  • Only seaplane tenders, light cruisers, training cruisers, and destroyers allowed! Specifically at least 1 AV, at least 1 DD, and at least 1 CL. Torpedo cruisers (CLT) cannot be used here.


Specific node notes

  • Node C is a submarine node, but you will not get the normal indication that it is a submarine node. Node B can be a submarine node, but isn't always.
  • There is very little reason to head towards B, unless the fleet cannot (or do not) want to face SS So-Class Elite at node C. But avoiding So-Class requires an additional fight which is not preferable
  • CL Tsu-Class Elite can show up at node E.
  • Node G can be guaranteed with 4 destroyers in the fleet.


Regarding air reconnaissance mechanic

  • From nodes G and H, recon planes will be flown towards the green X (the recon route is shown on the map as green arrows). Successful reconnaissance will reward additional resources upon winning at the boss node.
    • Neither G or H have combat.
    • Animation will be shown for the Air Reconnaissance; if both Type 2 Flying Boat and other seaplanes are brought, Type 2 Flying Boat animation takes priority.
    • Success rate (and possibly critical success rate) of the air reconnaissance depends on which AV and what equipment(s) are equipped, if any. Akitsushima equipped with Type 2 Flying Boat appears to increase the critical (and normal?) success rate.
    • You forfeit all reconnaissance rewards if you either drift away from boss or lose at the boss node..


Regarding Boss Fleet


Recommend Fleet

  • 1 AV, 1 CL, 4 DD (A → C → E → G → H → J, 3 fights total)
    • Pros: The most cost-effective way to get to boss, and guarantees G branching, which allows two air reconnaissance rewards. CL can be Abukuma Kai Ni in order to grant yourself another preemptive torpedo salvo if she is equipped with a Type A Ko-hyoteki.
    • Cons: Lowest damage output of the setup and may not be able to consistently get a victory at boss.
  • 2 AV, 3 CL, 1 DD (A → C → E → F → H → J, 4 fights total)
    • Pros: Highest damage output at boss, especially due to the boss fight almost always requiring night battle
    • Cons: Needs to fight an extra battle against enemy fleet led by a CA Ne-Class Elite which has the stats close to a battleship.
  • 1 AV, 2 CL, 3 DD (Either of the above routes, 3 or 4 fights total)
    • Pros: Has better damage over 1 AV 1 CL 4 DD, and if the random compass sends you to G node, can fight at boss with better output and still only fighting 3 battles total.
    • Cons: Has to deal with RNG, and being sent to node F this way hurts a bit more.


Suggested Ships (and equipment setups)

  • AV: Despite the fact that Akitsushima with her flying boats can succeed at the air reconnaissance better, her battle output is low, and as the boss fleet is rather tanky, using either Chitose, Chiyoda or Mizuho equipped with 2 Zuiun (or variants) and 1 Type A Ko-hyoteki is the better choice, especially since the opening torpedo can easily take out a less-armored target before shelling begins. If aviable, Nisshin A will be the best choice as AV, since her 4 slots allow her to equip Zuiun for Air Superiority and Artillery Spotting, Two main guns for day- and nighttime double-attack and a minisub with a potent opening Torpedo. (Akitsushima cannot equip Type A Ko-hyoteki, lower plane capacity, and no torpedo capability, period.) Note that any setup with seaplane bombers have chances being shot down, especially if Tsu-Class Elite shows up at node E, which may result in no air superiority at boss node.
  • CL: Generally, your 1~3 best CLs here. Unless your other ships can compensate for the lowered night battle damage, it is not recommended to use Ooyodo here. Abukuma Kai Ni is highly recommended for here since she can be armed with a Type A Ko-hyoteki.
  • DD: Consider the boss fight will require night battle for the most part, and the fact that Destroyer Princess (harder version) has 115 armor, it is better to bring ships that have better night battle performances. Anti-Air equipment is not required for this map because no enemy fleets here have air capability.
