Construction
Introduction
Construction is a feature that enables admirals to build new ships. Building ships consume resources and one development material for each attempt. Development materials can be found by completing quests, expeditions, and some sorties.
The chance of obtaining a rare ship is not affected by headquarter level or the type of flagship you have (not confirmed, but new admirals can definitely obtain rare ships), but it is affected by the amount of resources you put in.
The recipes bellow list the type of ship you may obtain. All recipes always have a chance to make more than one type of ship. Keep in mind that construction is a "game of chance" which mean that the type of ship and the exact ship you obtain is totally random, so the chance to obtain the ship that you desire is low. There is also some ship that is currently unbuildable, the list can be found here.
Also please refrain from asking "why didn't I got xxx ship with xxx recipe?" The chance is that you didn't read this section, using the wrong recipe, or simply having bad luck. Take note that sometimes it is easier and more resources efficient to find your desire ship in sorties as a drop rather than building them (i.e. 4 Kongou sisters is a quite commom drop at 3-2 node A).

Destroyer
|
|
|
|
Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 30 | 30 | 30 | 30 | Mainly destroyers and light cruisers, with a small chance of heavy cruisers. No rare destroyers. |
| 250 | 30 | 200 | 30 |
Includes chance of rare destroyers (Shimakaze, Yukikaze) and submarines (I-168, I-58). 3.22% for Shimakaze OR Yukikaze. (Shimakaze 2.24%, Yukikaze 0.98%). 3.9% for submarines. [1] |
| 250 | 130* | 200 | 30 | 3.85% for Shimakaze OR Yukikaze. 3.36% for submarines. [2] |
| 270 | 30 | 330 | 130 | 6% for Shimakaze (3.75%) OR Yukikaze (2.25%). 3.8% for submarines. [3] |
| 270 | 150* | 370 | 50 | 7.19% for Shimakaze OR Yukikaze. (Shimakaze 2.74%, Yukikaze 4.45%,). 3.73% for submarines. [4] |
- Data from http://kancolle-db.tk/ suggests that increasing fuel, steel, and ammo all increase the chance of receiving a rare DD. However, it appears that values higher than 300 fuel and 400 steel begin to generate more CV/CVLs and fewer rare DDs. Further increasing bauxite does not appear to have a significant impact on the chance of receiving a rare DD or SS and is more likely to result in CV/CVL.
