Very Low = it's unlikely that leveling these ships will make your fleet stronger
===Very High===
[[Yahagi Kai Ni B]] (1BP): Queen of light cruisers. Overpower strong and versatile. 4 slots. Can launch opening torpedo. Can carry Kami tanks and seaplane fighters. Very high firepower and torp. She should be your first aim of LSC as long as you've unlocked the LSC system (It's not recommended for beginners to LSC Yamato and Musashi, however).
[[Nagato Kai Ni]] (1BP): Nagato Special Attack can easily clear the most maps on Easy/Medium, and is the last hope of some very hard maps.
[[Ise Kai Ni]] (2BP, Catapult): Very versatile 5-slot aviation battleship which can carry carrier-based fighters and dive bombers. Her quest reward you two 634 squadron bombers, which can improve the range of carriers to LONG, and prevent that your carriers got Chuha before their attack.
[[Mogami Kai Ni Toku]] (1BP)： Queen of aviation cruisers. The only one in CA class with opening torpedo ability. Can carry seaplanes and anti-installation equipments.
===High===
[[Kaga Kai Ni]] (2BP, Catapult): It was controversial that if beginners should level up cardiv 1 (Akagi, Kaga) or cardiv 5(Shoukaku, Zuikaku) first. But it's worth to remodel Kaga first, since she have 5 slots with a large deck size which can help you clear the non-event maps easily. Her quest rewards [[Prototype Shuusui|a rocket interceptor]], which is a prerequisite of medium/hard events (without a rocket interceptor it's almost impossible to get base defense AS, which is always a criterium of path opening/debuffing). In late game you can remodel her to Kaga Kai Ni Go to get an overpowered aircraft [[TBM-3W+3S|TBM-3W + 3S]].
[[Akagi Kai Ni]](2BP, Catapult): Almost same as Kaga. You need both to get two of the best torpedo bombers [[Ryuusei Kai (CarDiv 1/Skilled)]] [AKA Fuchida squadron].
[[Shoukaku Kai Ni A]](1BP, Catapult): 4 slots armored carrier(can attack if chuha). Shoukaku and Zuikaku quests reward you many useful equipments such as [[Tenzan Model 12 (Murata Squadron)|Murata Squadron]], [[Type 0 Fighter Model 53 (Iwamoto Squadron)|Iwamoto Squadron]] (the best obtainable fighter) and [[Prototype Toukai]] (land based ASW aircraft).
[[Zuikaku Kai Ni A]](1BP, Catapult): Same as Shoukaku.
[[Mutsu Kai Ni]](1BP): Similar to Nagato. Moreover, if Nagato Kai Ni is the 1st ship and Mutsu Kai Ni is the 2nd, the damage of Nagato special attack will further increase.
== Medium ==
[[Yukikaze Kai Ni]](1BP to Tan Yang, 2BP to Yukikaze Kai Ni): Queen of DD. But too expensive.
[[Musashi Kai Ni]](3BP): After the update that lifted the day shelling cap to 220, Yamato and Musashi were significantly buffed. But not easy to be obtained(if you do not have them, don't fret since they're not essential even in Hard events). Gives you a [[Prototype 51cm Twin Gun Mount|51 cm gun]].
[[Yuubari Kai Ni Toku]](1BP): the former queen of CL. But it's still adviced to have one, as her quest rewards a [[Type D Kouhyouteki Kai (Kouryuu Kai)|Type D Kouhyouteki]].
[[Kongou Kai Ni C]](2BP): Can perform night special attack which is often crucial after the night firepower cap was lifted to 360. But 300 devmats are a painful burden...
[[Hiei Kai Ni C]](2BP): Same as Kongou. But 330 devmats are absolutely a painful burden...
[[Naganami Kai Ni]](1BP): Destroyer with very high firepower(if equipped with type D guns) and reasonable luck. Her quest rewards an action report each quarter.
[[Choukai Kai Ni]](1BP): Heavy cruiser. Her quest is the common ancestor of many further quests.
[[Hyuuga Kai Ni]](2BP, Catapult): Have some quests with Ise Kai Ni. You should remodel her after Ise is remodeled, anyway.
[[Saratoga Mk.II]]: Her quests reward night fighters/bombers. After you finished the quest, you can remodel her further to an armored carrier.
==Low==
[[Ooshio Kai Ni]](1BP) and [[Arashio Kai Ni]](1BP): Anti-Installation and some quests.
[[Fletcher Mk.II]](1BP): Versatile DD with high luck. But devmats are wailing...
Some Yuugumo class destroyers, and Akigumo(1BP for each): High firepower means higher survivablity in dogfights between small ships. Rewards D guns which are cruicial in night CI of low-luck ships. Akigumo Kai Ni is similar to Yuugumo class, and also has a bonus of [[12.7cm Twin Gun Mount Model C Kai 2]] +7, which can save one D gun.
[[Kagerou Kai Ni]], [[Shiranui Kai Ni]] and [[Kuroshio Kai Ni]] (1BP each): Quest rewards a catapult. Common ancestor of several quests which reward [[61cm Quad (Oxygen) Torpedo Mount Late Model]], very powerful torpedoes.
[[Suzuya Kai Ni]](1BP): Former CAV queen before being replaced by Mogami. Quest gives a [[Kyoufuu Kai]]. Can equip 8cm gun in the expansion, which implies anti-installation functionality(e.g. 3 rockets, one 203(No.3) and one 8cm in the expansion)
[[Ryuuhou Kai Ni E]](1BP, Catapult): Good CVE. Quest rewards a night bomber. But since she consumes a catapult, it's not recommended to be remodeled in the early stage of the game.
[[Gambier Bay Mk.II]](1BP, Catapult): High firepower CVE. Can carry anti-installation equipments(useful for 6-4 right route). Gives you a night fighter. But since she consumes a catapult, it's not recommended to be remodeled in the early stage of the game.
[[Noshiro Kai Ni]](1BP): High firepower, but cannot launch opening torp like Yahagi. Noshiro Kai Ni is the only way to improve [[15.2cm Twin Gun Mount Kai Ni]] which is the typical weapon of Yahagi.
[[Gotland Andra]](1BP, Catapult): Her functionality is similar to Noshiro Kai Ni. Quest rewards a
