Help:Resource Farming

This article aims to provide advice on the better ways to farm the main resources (FuelAmmunitionSteelBauxite) and consumables (Instant repairInstant construction MaterialDevelopment materialImprovement material).

As some general rules
  • Expeditions are the best way to gain most resources, with the advantage of being AFK compatible,
  • Quests are often the better way to farm consumables, especially screws Improvement material,
  • Sorties generally provide the greatest hourly gain for any resource/consumable, but at the cost of more active playtime and some other resources.
Notes
  • Special resources are not detailed here, as they are difficultly "farmable", please refer to each individual page for more details.
  • Only repeatable quests are listed on this page, as they are the most relevant in a "farming mindset",
    • One-time quests can also be a major source of resources. Please refer to Quests for more details.
  • Expected for screws, monthly expeditions are also omitted here, as even so they reward great amounts of resources and consumables, they are incompatible with a "farming mindset",
  • Events and limited-time quests are often a great way to gain all types of consumables, with some events introducing great resource farming spots.
    • Please refer to the current event's page for more details on such addition.

General Tips

Sortie Tips

Resources in sorties are gained from Resource Nodes and Scraping dropped ships.

  • Using the lightest possible fleet is recommended to reduce the average sortie costs and so maximize gains.
  • For resource nodes, using appropriate gear (Landing Craft/Amphibious Vehicle/Drum Canister) is essential to maximize gains:

Notes:
  1. If the total value has a decimal, only the rounded-down value is applied.
  • A battle has to be completed (win or loss) after the resource node in order to claim the resources.
    • Exceptions are resource nodes that are dead-end nodes.

Expedition Tips

Expeditions come in various types and forms, being each more or less suited for some resources or even farming methods.

  • Regarding resources:
    • Some expeditions will reward a "modest" amount of resources, but on a short timer, being great on an "hourly gain" perspective, being more suited alongside active gameplay,
    • Some expeditions will reward a "high" amount of resources, but on a long timer, being great on an "absolute gain" perspective, being more suited alongside AFK periods.
  • Regarding consumables:
    • Some expeditions will reward a "fixed" consumable, being rewarded 50% of the time,
    • Some expeditions will reward a "GS" consumable, being rewarded with "Great Success" only,
    • Since no expedition rewards more than very few consumables, there is no "long timer" expedition adequate for farming, unless the consumable is a side reward of other resources.
  • For most expeditions, having a "Great Success" is advisable, especially for "short timer" ones.
    • This mostly requires sparkling ships, which is time-consuming, but still worth it when trying to reach greater hourly gains,
    • See Success Conditions for more details.

Quest Tips

Quests are mostly used to farm consumables (Instant repairInstant construction MaterialDevelopment materialImprovement material).

  • While it is ideal to use the lightest fleets possible to maximize primary resource gains, it is more important to use fleets that reliably clear the quests.

Fuel Fuel

1-3

Node D is a "normal resource node" rewarding 10~20 Fuel

  • Has many Landing Craft Landing Craft and Amphibious Vehicle Amphibious TanksSpecial Type 2 Amphibious Tank should be equipped to maximize fuel gain.
    • Drum Canister DrumsDrum Canister (Transport Use) work as an inferior substitute.
    • Only using those equipment in the fleet is a viable solution.
  • When lacking enough Amphibious Tanks for SS(V), Luigi Torelli is recommended as a substitute that can carry Drums.
  • When using an AO, the reach rate is 100%, but is only 80% when using an AV instead.
  • Once the first battle is complete, "retreat" and "resupply" before going back out.

If done correctly, this can result in an outstanding fuel gain that can surpass expedition gains.

  • Using "cheap" ships to refuel in the fleet (such as Kamikaze-class and Mutsuki-class) will optimize the fuel consumption/farming.
  • It is alternatively possible to use throwaway DDs with Drums that are never refueled until they are critically damaged, and then scraped to save on resources (do not forget to swap their drums with the new ones before doing this).

1-3 Souya Immortal Farming[1]

Thanks to her incredible Luck (77+) and Armor (62) stats, Souya (AGB) (not AGS nor AGL) can exploit damage mechanics to farm on fuel on 1-3.

  • Souya needs to:

When setup like that, Souya can be sortie alone on 1-3,

  • She will follow the route A D B E
  • One the battle of Node E, thanks to how damages are calculated in Kancolle, she will be virtually immune to damages and so will survive the battle almost every time,
  • Once the battle is completed, the sortie can be ended to gather the fuel and restart a run,
  • It is possible to farm about 900+ fuel/h "risk free" using this method.
Note
  • The method only works on 1-3 Node E, other battles being able to damage Souya.

7-4

7-4 is a great "risck free" place to farm both fuel and bauxite.

  • See the relevant page for more details.

4-3

This map can be used to farm both fuel and bauxite. The fleet used is the same for both resources. Fuel is obtained from node B. Take note that you do not have to retreat if heavily damaged at G. This is because node J is a dead-end node and will end the sortie. Unlike 1-3, a majority of the fleet needs to be combat focused. While this means you cannot bring as many bonus equipment, the base resource gain is higher. This map will cost more buckets compared to 1-3. You should take the AV over Hayasui because of the latter's cost.

Ammunition Ammunitions

3-2

Node B is a "normal resource node" rewarding 50~150 Ammunition

It is recommended to use a throwaway DD equipped with Landing Craft/Drum Canister, and a Repair PersonnelEmergency Repair Personnel
Emergency Repair Goddess
.

  • This saves on spending resources while completing the take. Alternatively, a set of good DD can be used, but they will need to be repaired, slowing down the farming rate.
  • If the battle on A critically damages the DD, select to use the Repair Personnel onward.
  • The Damage control is not consumed while doing this process.
  • Once complete, remove the Damage control from the DD, that can now be scraped, and repeat.

Another method is to send a fleet of 3-6SS(V) using Amphibious Vehicle. This method brings a bit greater return at a higher risk and has steeper requirements.

Doing this farming will bring a lot of "loses", which can impact the overall win rate and so the "event eligibility".

Steel Steel

1-4

There really isn't a good place to farm steel but this is the only map where it is possible to do it at a low cost. This map has random branching which means you are not guaranteed to hit the steel node. The bright side is that you can gain Ammunition or Bauxite instead. What you want to do is maximize the power of your opening strike to minimize the damage your DDs will take. Since a majority of the enemies encountered have weak ASW and are forced to target submarines, taking one along can allow you to sub-tank the map. You will want to retreat in the battle after the resource node.

Scraping unwanted drops is an excellent source of Steel.

  • Larger ships will provide more steel when scrapped.
  • Remember that any equiped gear will also be scraped in the process, adding some resources, unless the "unequip" switch is toggled.

Bauxite Bauxite

2-2

This is by far the easiest map to farm bauxite. The fleet requirements are light and there is only one battle. As an added bonus, it can be run at low morale because you're depending on the airstrike to kill everything. It also has 2 transports to finish your dailies and weeklies.

Nodes G H are "Air Reconnaissance", a unique kind of node, rewarding Ammunition, Bauxite, and Development material.

While this map has the potential to return significantly more DevMats than 2-4, it is also costlier and more difficult. The enemies encountered are strong and any node has the potential to force a retreat. Furthermore, to claim the resources, the boss has to be at least B ranked.

CL TorpedoesTorpedoesMidget SubmarineMinisub/Seaplane/SONAR The CL can play most roles, being a crucial component to defeat the boss. It should therefore be focused for combat/night battle, carrying additional geras if possible (especially true for 4 slots CL).
AV Seaplane BomberBomber/Large Flying Boat/Midget SubmarineMinisub Akitsushima and Nisshin are the only Large Flying Boat LFB capable AV, and so should preferably carry as many planes as possible to maximize gains.
  • Other AV are still viable, with the ability to carry either more Seaplane BomberBomber or one Midget SubmarineMinisub.
  • Reconnaissance SeaplaneRecon can be used but are a waste of potential.
