*A lighter fleet that will route the shortest path even when slow.
*A lighter fleet that will route the shortest path even when slow.
*It also benefits from the lack of battleship and so of second shellings on route.
*Bringing 0 (F)BB(V) benefits from a lack of a second shelling round on all pre-boss nodes which may increase pass-rate.

* If [[Yamato]] is being used for this phase, the fleet requires 2 CA, 2 CL, and 4 DD to take the best route.
* Fleets that include any Yamato-class and are not Fast+:
** Will route through {{MapRoute|O1|Pink}}
** Limited to 1 Yamato-Class to avoid {{MapRoute|Z1|orange}}
** Must include 2 CA(V), 2 CL, 4 DD, and ≤2 (F)BB(V) to avoid {{MapRoute|Z1|orange}}
* Bringing [[AACI]] is strongly recommended.
