This map is a good starting point for leveling DD, DE and CL. [[OASW]] is required to get the most out of this map. At higher HQ levels, the boss node contains a flagship submarine that can be difficult to sink in just 1 round of shelling. Furthermore, the submarines present will have opening torpedoes in the later nodes. Not having OASW means higher bucket usage.

BBV and CVL also have some use in this map. BBVs allow a 2nd round of shelling that can help weaker ASW ships secure a S-rank. CVLs can carry a [[Saiun]] to prevent RedT engagements from hampering your fleet's combat ability.

This map requires a minimum of 3 CV/L, allowing you to leech up to 3 other girls. The objective of this leveling method is to '''only hit node B andthe bauxite node'''. It doesn't give a lot of experience but it provides safe leveling. The resource cost is very low and it is even possible to get a refund on the bauxite cost. While it is possible to run this map at low morale, you will want to have more carriers to increase the chances the airstrike sinks all the enemy ships. This will reduce the bucket cost.<br>

This map allows you to level any ship type as the flagship. '''You should retreat after node B'''. 3-4 enemies in the node will be forced to attack a submarine, allowing you to mitigate some damage taken. Note that those enemies have ASW equipment so the sub is unlikely to survive more than one battle. Because the airstrike will do most of the heavy lifting, it is possible to run this map with low morale ships. Beware that this will increase your bucket cost when the airstrike fails to take out enough enemy ships.<br>

This map is great for leveling CLs and DDs but the requirements are tight if you want to reduce bucket costs. At least 3-4 girls in the fleet must be capable of [[OASW]]. The fewer girls that are capable, the higher the bucket cost will be. Having a CL capable of opening strikes will help by increasing the pass rate at G.<br>

This map is primarily for leveling BB, CV(L), CA, or CL. Unlike 7-1p2, it has no speed routing so a wider variety of girls can be used. It can get fairly costly depending on the setup used. It is not recommended to bring more than 1 leech for this map. The pre-boss nodes are fairly dangerous with the flagship Ri that will cause you to retreat. The boss herself has flagship Ta as escorts that will cost you buckets if you do not bring powerful enough girls.

Out of the 3 "1st node submarine" maps, 4-5 is the 2nd best in terms of experience. It also has the added advantage of not being limited by fleet composition. The objective is to '''retreat after node B or D'''. You will require some girls capable of [[OASW]] to reduce the bucket cost. Because your fleet only fights one node, morale can quickly become an issue.

This is the cheapest and fastest way to level any aviation ship (BBV, CAV, CV/L and AV). The objective is to '''retreat after node C'''. The [[12cm 30 Tube Rocket Launcher Kai 2]] is mandatory to get the most out of this map. This map is a waste of time and resources if you do not have the Rocket k2. How many girls you can field at once is determined by how many rockets you have. Because it is highly unlikely your girls will take damage, this map can be run non-stop with the flagship guaranteed MVP.

This map is the fastest way to level F/BB, CA/V, CL/T, DD and DE. Take note that BBV and CV/L cannot be brought. The objective of this map is to '''target node P'''. This map is very costly bucket-wise. The two night battle nodes are more than capable of heavily damaging any ship girl in your fleet if they get lucky.

Out of the 3 "1st node submarine" maps, 5-5 is the best in terms of experience. It's drawbacks are that you are limited to only 3DD and the enemy submarines are stronger, necessitating [[OASW]]. The objective is to '''retreat after node B'''. Like 4-5, morale quickly becomes an issue.<br>

Out of the 3 "1st node submarine" maps, 6-5 is the worst in terms of experience. Unlike 4-5 and 5-5, you are also unable to bring BB, CV, or CLT. The only reason to run this map for experience is to rank your LBAS alongside. [[OASW]] is mandatory due to the strength of the enemy submarines. You can reduce the number of OASW girls in the fleet if you are running ASW planes in the LBAS.
