Grunilgs proposal
Phase 1: Transport Phase
- Empty the TP Gauge
- Composition: 1CL 4-5DD
- Route: A-B-C-D-G-(H/J)-K-L with D and G being Submarine Nodes, H/J light surface engagements and L the transport boss with a Submarine Flagship
- Daihatsu Class Landing Craft and Drum Canisters help accelerate emptying the TP gauge. One or two OASW Ships are useful for the prebosses and Boss
Phase 2: Unlocking the Boss
- S-Rank Node F
- Composition: N/A
- Route: A-B-C-E-F, F is a submarine Node
Phase 3: Defeating Abyssal Usugumo
- Defeat (Insert actual princess name here). At 590 HP and 200 Armour she is quite tanky and is being escorted by one submarine, but the Rest of her escort is not threatening
- Compositions: 1-2CL 4-5DD, CA CL 4DD
- Routes: A-B-C-E-F-N-T or A-B-C-E-F-O-R-Q-T, with R being a submarine Node, and R and N being light surface engagements
- TCI and/or historical bonus ships (like Ushio) may be needed to defeat the boss at higher difficulties
DarkHeron's Proposal
Phase 1: TP Phase
- TP Phase for this phase is very long
- Fleet: 1 CL 5 DD and bring at least 1 DLC carriable DD for quicker and faster TP Drain
- 4 Daihatsu 2 Drum is about 60 TP per S rank
- Have some oasw as the boss is a flagship Yo-class Submarine along with surface ship
- Using Boss Support is highly recommended to take those surface ships out
Phase 2: Unlocking the Boss
- S rank Node F
Phase 3: Killing/Sinking Abyssal Usugumo
- 1 CA 1 CL 4 DD or 1-2 CL 4-5 DD
- Use surface guns and 1 OASW max to both survive the trip to the boss and be able to fight the boss
- Using support expedition will lighten the load at the boss and allow higher passing rate to the boss
- It will take about 4-5? S rank runs to clear the boss on Hard Mode?
Totaku's Proposal
Preperation
Since this event will be a large scale event, There will be many locks that you will need to deal with so you must carefully plan out your ships you bring as they will have an impact on later maps, please carefully consider before you partake in the maps.
For this operation, you will be depending on a light fleet to complete a transport operation and ultimately take out a boss of this map. There are several ships that do have bonuses for the area that are associated with Ki-504 and the 5th Fleet from the North Pacific. Below is the list of the following ships that have bonuses on this map:
Ship Bonuses
5th Fleet Bonus
Ki-504 Fleet Bonus
Other Bonus
- All other DDs bonus - 1.09x (all nodes)
- All DE - 1.34x (all nodes)
As a reminded, be carful who you pick as many of these ships also have bonuses for later maps! As of current, only Akebono and Ushio don't have bonuses to the later maps so they may be a more recommended choice for this map. But do note that things are subject to change once more infromation is released.
