Introduction

Remodel (改装) is a main menu function that can be found on the home screen. This menu allows you to adjust your ship girl's equipment and improve her stats. You can also remodel your ship girls from this menu after they have reached certain level thresholds.

Modernization and equipment are very important in allowing your ship girls to perform at their best.

Managing Equipment

It can be useful to bring down the equipment categories to find the desired equipment faster

Clicking on any of the equipment slots will bring up a list of all the equipment you possess that the ship girl can equip.

  • The equipment list only shows a list of currently unequipped equipment by default.
    • To view equipped equipment, click on the blue "Equipped on Other Ship Girls" (他艦娘装備中) button in the top right.
    • To switch back to unequipped equipment, click on the yellow "Equipment Stock" (ストック装備) button in the top right.
    • The equipped equipment list will display the name, level and status of the ship girl the equipment is on.
    • You cannot transfer equipment off ship girls currently on expedition but can transfer equipment off ship girls being repaired.

The equipment list can be filtered using a drop down located at the top. The options are:

Equipping Ship Girls

To equip equipment on a ship girl, simply click on any of the equipment slots and select the equipment that you wish to equip. This will bring up a menu showing the before and after stat bonuses of the change. Click the Change (変更) button to confirm your selection.

Swapping Equipment

To swap equipment, you can pick new equipment from the list to replace what is currently equipped. You can also shift equippment around on a ship girl by clicking and dragging. This is useful for arranging planes on aviation ships. Do note that equipment will always fill slots from top to bottom. You cannot leave any empty slots between equipment.

Unequipping

To unequip, you just click the little "x" icons beside each equipment slot to unequip individual equipment or the "x" on the bottom left of the equipment slots to unequip all. You can also click and drag equipment away from the slots to unquip it.

Equipment Locking

To lock your equipment, mouse over the empty space to the right of the equipment list. A padlock icon will appear. Click the icon to lock equipment.

Locking equipment will:

  • Prevent the equipment from being accidentally scrapped.
  • Prevent ship girls equipped with locked equipment from being scrapped or used for modernization.
  • Prevent equipment from being upgraded to new equipment or being used for upgrade fodder via Akashi's Improvement Arsenal.
  • Prevent equipment from being used for quests.

Remember to unlock equipment that you wish to upgrade or use for quests.

Equipment Preset Menu

Preset Record Menu
Preset Deploy Menu

There are three Equipment Preset Slots available. It is possible to expand it to a maximum of 9 via Dock Keys. One Key unlocks two presets. Both menus can be left by clicking the cog at the top right or anywhere outside of the preset menu.

Recording Equipment Presets:

  • Equipment setups can be recorded in the "record" section of the equipment preset menu by clicking the record button.
  • These presets can be locked to not be overwritten by accident by clicking the padlock next to the record button.
  • The equipment of the currently selected ship is recorded, including the reinforcement expansion

Deploying Equipment Presets:

  • You can deploy the saved equipment presets via the deploy button in the equipment preset deployment menu under the following conditions:
    • The target ship must have equal or greater slot number than the preset
    • The target ship must have a reinforcement expansion if the preset has something saved in the reinforcement expansion slot
      • It is possible to click on the Reinforcement-Expansion Item in the preset screen to prevent it from being loaded and therefore permitting the use of the preset for a ship that does not possess a reinforcement expansion.
    • The target ship must be eligible to equip the saved equipment in the same slots as the preset. (e.g. no gun in slot three when deploying onto Ise-Class Kai Ni, no gun in slot 4 when deploying onto Yuubari Kai Ni). This also applies to special rule reinforcement expansion equipment like 8cm HA guns and bulges.
    • The equipment must be in the inventory and not equipped on another ship
  • There are two modes to deploying presets:
    • Mode A: Picks the best of the available equipment saved in the preset (based on akashi improvements)
    • Mode B: Picks the same or best available equipment (if same is not available) saved in the preset (based on akashi improvements)
