Naval District Saury Festival
Time remaining until the Naval District Saury Festival 2024 Mini-Event starts:
|
---|
The Naval District Saury Festival (鎮守府秋刀魚祭り) is an annually held mini-event occurring in early fall, where it is possible to drop "Pacific Saury fishes" on certain maps to then either exchange them in limited quests or consume them for some resources, consumables, or equipment. The ultimate reward is the "Big Catch Flag" of the year furniture.
This event has happened almost every year since 2015, with slight variations each time:
The 9th Naval District Saury Festival began on the 8th of November 2024.
- Great LBAS planes were rewarded.
Item Description
Saury
漁場の安全を確保し、秋刀魚漁を支援することで入手した貴重な旬の「秋刀魚」です。

Sardine
漁場の安全を確保し、鰯漁を支援することで入手した美味しい旬の「鰯」です。
※秋刀魚&鰯祭り終了時に消滅します。
These are delicious seasonal sardines obtained by ensuring the safety of the fishing grounds and supporting sardine fishing.
※ Will disappear at the end of the Saury & Sardine Festival.
How to Obtain
Pacific Saury (fish) can be obtained as drops from certain maps during the event.
- Special Saury Festival-themed music will play when entering battle on maps that contain saury.
To drop a Saury, the fleet must get an S rank (sometimes just an A rank) on relevant Nodes. After the battle, a notification will appear if any saury was obtained, prior to any ship drops.
A maximum of 99 raw fish can be held at a time. Once at 99, no more fish can be obtained.
- It is possible to obtain more than 99 total fish during the duration of the event, as long as they are consumed to keep the total below 99.
- The Saury item can only be used for "#Cooking", which rewards resources or consumables.
- While #Quests require possession of certain quantities of saury in order to be completed, they don't consume them.
Drop Rate
The fishing drop rate should be as follows:
Fishing Drop Rate | |
---|---|
| |
|
The drop rate can be increased by using #Fishing Equipment or #Fishing Ships.
- These pieces of equipment can be carried by multiple ships in a fleet, and different types of equipment will synergize[1].
- Thus to maximize the bonus, it is recommended to carry a diverse set of fishing equipment on multiple ships.
- All Coastal Defense Ships as well as some auxiliaries count here as "Fishing Ships", having an innate fishing bonus staking with each others.
The drop rates will also depend on the current world's fish stock.
- Fishing on any map of a given world will decrease its overall fish stock.
- "Overfishing" will happen if too many fish are caught within a given world in a short amount of time.
- Using Depth Charges speeds up the overfishing rate.
- Once overfished, the drop rate will decrease until fishing becomes impossible (due to extremely low rate).
- The fish stock will regenerate over time.
- The exact amount of fish restocked and the time needed is not known, but depends on the overfishing state, and will take about one or two days at worst.
- It is recommended to cycle between worlds and event maps to maximize drops while avoiding overfishing.
