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.
