Tips

  • The map consists of 2 Phases.
  • Similar to World 7-2, this map resets at the end of each month and you will have to clear Phase 1 and 2 each month.
  • Similar to World 5-2, this map featured historical routing if you use Kamikaze, Haguro, Ashigara on Phase 2.
    • Kamikaze is the key historical ship for this map and required in order to avoid node M which features CA Ri-Class that can potentially harm your "light ships".
      • You can drop her on this map to get better routings later.
    • The number of historical ships being presented in the fleet heavily affects the routing you will take in Phase 2. Increasing the speed of the fleet to Fast+ or more can help reduce the number of historical ships required to go the shortest route (See below).

Phase 1

  • This is a Light Fleet phase where you go and kill a fleet of 5 enemy destroyers. The boss in this phase is DD Ro-Class Late Model, who will turn into Late Model Elite form in the Final Kill (Reverted to Late Model form again once this phase is cleared).
Recommended Fleet
  • Haguro, 3DD
    • Route = A C E
    • Not having Haguro may add extra nodes.

Phase 2

  • This phase requires you to kill a much heavier enemy fleet than Phase 1 featuring CA Ne-Class Elite as the boss. In the final kill, the boss comp will feature 6 enemies in total, and will revert back to 5-enemy comp once the map is cleared.
  • It is possible to clear this phase by either using a fleet of 5 ships or 6 ships depending on what the player wants.
  • All the compositions suggested below requires at least Fast fleet

- -
  • Haguro, Ashigara, Kamikaze, 1AV, 1CL(T), 1DD
  • Haguro, Ashigara, 1CA(V), 3DD (Fast)
    • Route = A C D G J P
    • The first comp is the strongest fleet possible, which helps to minimize bucket usage due to extra opening shots and fewer DDs required.
    • The second comp is for fleets that are missing Kamikaze while avoiding an ammo penalty at the boss.
-
  • Haguro, Ashigara, 3DD, 1CLT/AV
    • Route = A C D G I M P
    • Not recommended as there is an ammo penalty at the boss node. Only use this comp if you don't have Kamikaze.

  • 1CA(V), 1CA, 1CL, 3DD (Fast+)
    • Route = A C I L M P
-
  • 1CA(V), 1CA, 1CL, 3DD (Fastest)
    • Route = A C I J P
