→Ship Girl Experience
==Ships Experience==
{{PortMechanicsPortal}}
*Ship experience : Base exp X MVP Multiplier (2) X Flagship Multiplier (1.5) X Rank Multiplier
Experience in Kantai Collection is divided into two types. [[#Ship Girl Experience|Ship Girl experience]] and [[#Admiral Experience|Admiral experience]]. The former makes ship girls more powerful and the latter increases the player's HQ level and plays into [[Ranking]].
{| class="wikitable"
=Ship Girl Experience=
! style="text-align: center;"|Multiplier
Ships earn experience through [[#SGSortie|sorties]], [[#SGExercise|exercises]] (PVP), and [[#SGExpedition|expeditions]].
* For ships, the following elements are affected by level:
** [[Remodeling]] (ship to ship dependant),
** [[Marriage]], requiring level 99,
** Some [[Expeditions]]' requirements or/and great success rate,
** Natural [[Stats#Linear_Growth|stat growth]] for ASW {{ASW}}, LoS {{LOS}}, evasion {{Evasion}}, and accuracy {{Hit}}/hit rate,
** [[Repairs#Repair_time|Repair time]],
** [[Night Recon]] trigger rate,
** [[Night Cut-In]] trigger rate,
** [[Combat/Night Battle#"New Type" Cut-ins|Chance for 2nd Hit for "New Type" Cut-ins]] for DD after level 80,
** Innate [[Opening Torpedo Salvo]] for SS/V after level 10,
** Possibility to trigger the [[Submarine Touch]] for AS after level 30,
** [[Touch]] trigger rates,
** [[Touch]] damage for SS(V),
** [[Experience]] bonus for CT,
* ''See [[leveling]] for more details and advice on leveling up ships.
==={{anchor|SGSortie}}Sorties===
Experience earned by ships in sorties is:
{{Formula
|Title=Sortie Experience Formula
|Math=\text{Exp}_\text{sortie} = \lfloor \text{Exp}_\text{base} \times \text{Mod}_\text{MVP} \times \text{Mod}_\text{flag} \times \text{Mod}_\text{rank} \rfloor
|Var=<math>\text{Exp}_\text{base}</math> the base experience of the node, being node-to-node dependent.
**''See the [[Sortie|individual map pages]] for exact base exp values.

* <math>\text{Mod}_\text{rank}</math> the rank bonus according to the table below.

|Notes=The maximum multiplier a ship can earn is '''3.6''', for a flagship MVP at S rank.
* It is rarely worth it to go into each night battle to increase the sortie exp gains, as it is less time-efficient compared to doing more runs.
* Most maps heavily reward clearing the boss node.

;Notes
* Like sorties, the maximum multiplier a ship girl can earn is '''3.6'''. This would be for a flagship MVP at S-rank.
** With two CT with one married in the fleet, it is '''4.23'''.
** It is not recommended to have a CT flagship as a more valuable ship can use that experience.
* It is recommended to do night battle in order to attempt to get a higher rank for better exp.
** Participation per day in exercises is limited so it is important to maximize the exp.
* Because of the way exp is calculated, even losses can yield a lot of experience.
* See [[Exercises#Experience_Chart|Exercises]] for calculated experience values.

Marrying ship girls instantly raises their level to 100, and raises their level cap to 180. No experience is necessary for this level-up. Please see [[Marriage]] for more details.

=HQ Experience=
Like ship girls, Admirals earn HQ experience through [[#HQSortie|sorties]], [[#HQExpedition|expeditions]] and [[#HQExercise|exercises]].
* The best way to earn HQ experience is through sorties.
* Exercises and expeditions give minimal HQ experience.
* The most important use of HQ experience is for [[Ranking]].
* HQ experience is '''capped at 396 000 000'''.
Do note that the HQ level will directly affect the difficulty of certain maps, by changing the enemy compositions, or even the map's HP bar.
==={{anchor|HQSortie}}Sorties===
HQ experience from sorties is only affected by rank.

;Notes

* HQ exp is only gained from '''combat node'''. See [[Nodes]] for more details.
* It is rarely worth it to go into each night battle to increase the sortie exp gains, as it is less time-efficient compared to doing more runs.
|}
==={{anchor|HQExercise}}Exercises===
HQ exp earned in exercises depends on the level difference between opponents.

Please see [[Expeditions#Reference_Tables|Expeditions]] for the experience earned from each expedition. Note that the experience listed is multiplied by '''2''' on a [[Expeditions#Great_Success|great success]].
===Admiral Rank===
These are the ranks displayed on the [[Military Record]] screen and beside each name in the server rankings.
* Ranks depend on the current position in the [[Ranking]]s.
* Ranks currently serve no purpose beyond cosmetic.
* Ranks are calculated off the '''total number of valid admirals''' on the server.
** Admirals who have registered but not started the game aren't counted.

===Effects of HQ Level===
====Effective LoS====
The [[Line of Sight]] formula is affected by HQ level. A higher HQ level will result in higher LoS requirements for routing.
====Resource Soft Cap====
A higher HQ level will result in a higher soft cap on primary resources ({{Fuel}}{{Ammo}}{{Steel}}{{Bauxite}}). Please see [[Resources#Soft_Cap|Resources]] for more information.
====Development Rarity====
The higher the HQ level, the higher the chance of obtaining rare equipment from [[Development]].
====Difficulty Tiers====
The difficulty of events used to automatically be adjusted to HQ level. As of the Winter 2015 event, players have been able to select the difficulty level they wish to challenge. HQ level affects the difficulty levels available to be selected.
HQ level also affects the enemy compositions encountered in some sorties. Please see the individual [[Sortie]] pages for the difficulty tier breakdown.
