− === How to Enter ===
− # Set Akashi or Akashi Kai as your secretary (first ship of the first fleet).
− # At the home screen, hover your mouse cursor over the factory icon (do not click).
− # The Improvement Arsenal Icon will appear next to it as shown.[[File:Kaishu koushou.png|thumb|347x347px|none]]
− # Move your cursor to that icon and click.
− === How to Use ===
− * To use this new factory, you need Improvement Materials [[file:Improvement Materials.png|20px]]. They can be obtained through the following methods:
− ** Certain quests reward Improvement Materials.
− ** Medals can be exchanged for 4 Improvement Materials per medal.
− ** The in-game cash shop sells them in a package of 10 Improvement Materials for 700 DMM points.
− * The 2nd ship of the fleet can aid Akashi and influence the possible upgrade options.
− * There is a chance to fail when doing improvements and upgrades
− ** If the improvement level is low, then you will have a higher chance of success, and vice versa.
− ** Akashi Kai has a higher success rate than Akashi herself.
− ** On failure, resources, Development Materials, Improvement Materials and any extra equipment used will disappear. Equipment being upgraded is left unchanged.
− ** There is a slider for guaranteed success that increases the required DevMats and ImproveMats.
− * Equipment that has been improved will have a ★ beside them. Improvement ranges from ★+1 to ★+10. ★+10 appears as ★max.
−
− * Starting from ★+6. you will have to spend a certain amount of unimproved equipment that have the same type (name) in order to gain ★+7 up to ★+10. (AA Fire Directors require other equipment.)
−
− * There's no ''<u>visible stat</u> ''difference between unimproved and improved equipment.
− ** Japanese sources are currently testing the effect of stars. preliminary results are (as of 10/28):
− *** ★+1~3: +1 bonus to shelling/torpedo damage
− *** ★+4~8: +2 bonus to shelling/torpedo damage
− *** ★+9~10: +3 bonus to shelling/torpedo damage
− ** 35.6cm Gun seems to follow a faster unknown progression
− ** Depth Charge seems to follow a slower unknown progression
− ** Effect on the AA Guns and AA Directors is unknown as of 11/17
− * If you reach the maximum improvement level ★max of your equipment, it can be possible to upgrade to a stronger variant. You must have the equipment unlocked and an upgrade must exist. However, your improvement level will be reset if you do this, and ★+10 equipment could be stronger than an unimproved upgrade.
− ** If the new equipment after upgrading is something you can develop from the conventional development, the improvement level will be automatically reset to ★+3.
− ** This has the highest chance of failure, so using the guaranteed success slider can be considered.
− ** Equipment to be upgraded should not be locked.
− === Possible Improvements ===
− Equipment that can be improved depends on the day of the week and the ship in the second slot of the first fleet. changes midnight JST.
