'''Preparation'''
 +
 
 +
On this map, there are several ships that will have historical benefits on this map. A good number of them while useful on this map '''could possibly be useful in later maps'''. So be sure to only use ships you can carefully toss in here while doing this map on Normal and Hard Difficulty. In addition, while there is a mechanic to open a shortcut on this map, completing it isn't entirely necessary.
 +
 
 +
The only main question you need to ask here is the following:
 +
 
 +
# Are you willing to use some of the following ships such as [[Choukai]], [[Sendai]], [[Yura]], [[Amagiri]], [[Atago]], [[Takao]], [[Kongou]], [[Haruna]] on this map?
 +
# Are you willing to go through with completing a shortcut phase on this map?
 +
 
 +
If you agree with the first one, carefully consider who you'll use as they may become useful in later maps. If you agree with the 2nd, you will need additional ships to meet shortcut requirements. Plan carefully using your ships on this map.
 +
 
 +
'''Historical Bonuses'''
 +
 
 +
Below is a list of the following historical bonuses:
 +
 
 +
* [[Choukai]], [[Sendai]], [[Yura]], [[Amagiri]] - 1.25x
 +
* [[Kongou]], [[Haruna]], [[Atago]], [[Takao]] - 1.15x
 +
* [[Akagi]], [[Kaga]] - 1.1x
 +
* [[Souryuu]], [[Hiryuu]] - 1.1x
 +
 
 +
You may be able to use up to 3-4 historical ships here that will likely benefit this map. But once more, '''please carefully weigh your options before doing so.'''
 +
 
 +
'''Step 1: Deciding your course of action'''
 +
 
 +
On this map, you can choose to do the following options:
 +
 
 +
* Go Directly for the [[Heavy Cruiser Princess]]
 +
* Attack Port Darwin (Node A) and defeat the [[Harbor Water Demon]] several times with an A rank to unlock the shortcut (1 times on Easy / Normal, 2 Times on Hard.
 +
 
 +
Depend on the direction you choose some options will need to be considered, keep in mind however that there it is '''not necessary to do the Node A Shortcut'''
 +
 
 +
Below we will focus on the shortcut first before engaging in the actual battle. You are welcome to skip and go directly to attacking the [[Heavy Cruiser Princess]].
 +
 
 +
'''Step 1a: Attack Port Darwin (Node A) and defeat the [[Harbor Water Demon]]'''
 +
 
 +
*<font color="red">'''Note that it's completely possible to defeat Heavy Cruiser Princess without the need of unlocking extra route. This phase should be done only if your fleet can't finish off the boss in Final Form to take an alternative route to avoid one air raid!'''</font>
 +
 
 +
* Recommend Fleet: '''2 CA, 1 CL, 2DD, 1 CVL''' (Fast Fleet)
 +
* Path: '''I-F-E-B-D-A'''
 +
* LBAS Recommendation:
 +
**LBAS 1: 1 Land Base Fighter, 3 Land Base Bombers (Distance of 7 Required)
 +
 
 +
* On this path your fleet will take the shortest route
 +
* Your Fleet will encounter a surface fleet consisting of CLs and DD, Vanguard Formation is recommended.
 +
* Air Nodes will require decent air defense and AACI to pass efficiently. Use your CVL as a fighter mule, and bring a DD that can AACI to help efficiently past these nodes.
 +
*It's recommended to also bring some Anti-Installation equipment, but it's not necessary to use a nuke setup to efficiently kill the enemies in Node A.
 +
 
 +
[[Harbor Water Demon]] will usually have possibly have an Airfield Princess, 2 DD and 2 Transports. Having an LBAS target this node should make short work of the enemies allowing for your fleet to do extensive damage to the boss. All you will need is 1-2 A ranks to successfully complete the requirements.
 +
 
 +
Once you successfully complete the requirement you will open a shortcut through nodes '''J-S-P'''

 +

'''Recommended LBAS'''
 +
*'''4 Land Base Bombers''' (Range 6 Required)
 +
 
 +
The [[Heavy Cruiser Princess]] will be of a weaker variant that will consist of some CLs and DDs in her fleet. She will not have any airpower therefore allowing your fleet to get an easy AS if you bring a carrier with some fighter power. In addition to this, you can use an all bomber LBAS group to swiftly take out the majority of the enemy fleet so your fleet can focus more on the Princess.
 +
 
 +
The most effective way to win is to either have a DD that can TCI or use a ship with historical bonuses such as [[Atago]], [[Takao]], and [[Sendai]] who are most effective against the Princess with a double attack on this map. Bringing night battle gear such as a Night scout and star shells will also improve your win rate. Whichever method you choose you can make short work of her and eventually you will clear the map with little effort.

Mechanics

Participation requirements

  • Must have a 75% sortie win ratio.
  • Must have 5 empty ship slots for new ships.
  • Must have 20 free equipment slots.

Special Mechanics

  1. The difficulty system first used in Spring 2015 Event returns: you can choose between Operation A (, Hard), Operation B (, Medium), Operation C (, Easy) or Operation D (, Very Easy) .
    • Choosing A or B requires certain HQ Level (HQ Lv 35 for B / 80 for A in Spring 2015 Event).
    • An important note to all Admirals intending to clear the event on Hard difficulty - further (new) conditions now apply:

        • Switching between any other difficulties will not reset the debuff mechanism.
  2. The debuff system from Summer 2015 Event's final map, where certain nodes had to be attacked and other conditions fulfilled to reduce boss armor, will return.
  3. Returning this event, the Vanguard Formation can be used .
    • This formation will organize the fleet such that the 3rd-6th/7th ships protect the Flagship and 2nd Ship of the Fleet.
      • In addition, the formation allows for ships to become more evasive in combat situations, especially with well-trained Destroyer.
      • This formation is also available only during the duration of the event.
      • The formation will be usable by both normal fleets as well as the Striking Force Fleet.
  4. NPC Friend Fleets have been introduced into the game.

Tips

Note: The Following Guide is an early version that has been based on current collected info. Be aware that information is subject to change as more of the maps and information is released.

Preparations

Historical Bonuses:

Note: Base multiplier stacks multiplicatively with node-specific bonuses, if any.


On this map, you will be using a single fleet that cannot include (F)BB(V),CV(L)(B) and LHA. 8th DesDiv ships have the highest bonus here. However, it's not strictly necessary to use them to clear, and you can consider conserving them for later maps instead.

The three major factors consider before attempting this map are:

  1. Do you have any anti-installation equipment? (Type 3 Shell, Anti-Ground Rockets, Mortars, Daihatsu/Ka-Mi Tank, etc.)
  2. Do you have any Destroyers and Light Cruisers that can equip said equipment?
  3. Do you have any 8th DesDiv Members (Asashio, Ooshio, Michishio, Arashio) (preferably Kai Ni, but not required)?

If you said yes to the first 2 questions, you can clear Part 1 of the map using the recommended lighter ship comps listed below. If you said yes to the 8th DesDiv question, you can consider using them here as well, although just 1-2 of them should be more than sufficient for the purposes of clearing this map (it really is that easy).

The alternative heavier composition should not be used at all on Medium difficulty or higher, especially given how many CAs are required for later Main Operation maps. It has been included only for those with no other alternatives.

Support expeditions are not necessary for this map.

Part 1: Supply Depot Princess (HP Bar)

Below is a tab which will cover three of the most recommended fleet comps that can be used on this map. These comps can be used across the whole map.

Recommended Fleet

Total ships needed: 4-6 ships

  • Route: B-C-E-F-H
  • You will only face off against one enemy fleet consisting of 3-4 DDs prior to the boss.
  • This comp is the strongest, most efficient comp for this map as a whole, although you can omit the CL for the purposes of the Part 1 boss.
    • Using a CLT here is not recommended unless you have dupes, or you are playing on Easy or below.
  • This comp is ideal if you have at least 2 DD that can equip anti-installation one-shot builds (Type 2 Amphibious Tank, Marine (Type 89 Daihatsu / M4A1 / Toku Daihatsu 11th Regiment), and WG42 / Shipborne Model Type 4 20cm Anti-ground Rocket Launcher / Concentrated variant) to deal maximum damage to the boss) while the other ships can be equipped for taking out PT imps.

  • Route: B-C-E-F-H
  • You will only face off against one enemy fleet consisting of 3-4 DDs prior to the boss.
  • This comp is perfectly viable for the Part 1 boss, although a CL should be added for the Part 2 boss.
  • This comp is ideal if you have at least 2 DD that can equip anti-installation one-shot builds (Type 2 Amphibious Tank, Marine (Type 89 Daihatsu / M4A1 / Toku Daihatsu 11th Regiment), and WG42 / Shipborne Model Type 4 20cm Anti-ground Rocket Launcher / Concentrated variant) to deal maximum damage to the boss) while the other ships can be equipped for taking out PT imps.

  • Route: A-C-E-F-H (Easy or Less)
  • Route: A-C-D-F-H (Medium or Higher)
  • Not recommended on Medium difficulty or above. Shiplocking will be very tight for CAs, taking into account later maps.
  • This comp is recommended only to players who are relatively new and lack in anti-installation equipment for DDs/CLs, and have no means of gaining access to that equipment in the short run.
  • CAs should equip Type 3 Shells for the bonus against the Supply Depot Princess. DDs should be equipped to combat PT Imps.
  • You will take the same route on Easy or lower, but on higher difficulties, you will face off against a sub fleet and a fleet consisting of heavy ships.

Once the Part 1 HP bar has been fully depleted, the Part 2 boss will automatically be unlocked.

Part 2: Defeat the Light Cruiser He-Class (HP Bar)

  • Route: A-C-E-F-I-J-K (Easy or Less) if using 1 DD/CL/CLT, 4 DD or 4 DD comp
  • Route: A-C-D-F-I-J-K (Normal or Higher) if using CA-based comp

You can reuse your previous fleet for Part 1. All ships should now be equipped with double-attack set-ups (no anti-installation equipment is required for this part, and anti-PT Imp equipment is also not necessary). If using the 4DD fleet above, adding 1CL is helpful.

There is one additional pre-boss node (J) that is not difficult to clear. If you are having difficulty passing, Vanguard formation may be useful. The boss node (K) is not particularly hard to clear either, particularly with historical bonus ships.

  • The new Kai variant of the He-Class CL has significantly higher HP and armour, but this should not pose a problem with enough historical bonuses.

Tips
Note: The Current Guide is an early version of the guide and some hints may be subject to change as more information comes out with the release of EO maps and other information. Use this guide with caution as it is subject for possible finalization.

Preparation

On this map, there are several ships that will have historical benefits on this map. A good number of them while useful on this map could possibly be useful in later maps. So be sure to only use ships you can carefully toss in here while doing this map on Normal and Hard Difficulty. In addition, while there is a mechanic to open a shortcut on this map, completing it isn't entirely necessary.

The only main question you need to ask here is the following:

  1. Are you willing to use some of the following ships such as Choukai, Sendai, Yura, Amagiri, Atago, Takao, Kongou, Haruna on this map?
  2. Are you willing to go through with completing a shortcut phase on this map?

If you agree with the first one, carefully consider who you'll use as they may become useful in later maps. If you agree with the 2nd, you will need additional ships to meet shortcut requirements. Plan carefully using your ships on this map.

Historical Bonuses

Below is a list of the following historical bonuses:

You may be able to use up to 3-4 historical ships here that will likely benefit this map. But once more, please carefully weigh your options before doing so.

Step 1: Deciding your course of action

On this map, you can choose to do the following options:

  • Go Directly for the Heavy Cruiser Princess
  • Attack Port Darwin (Node A) and defeat the Harbor Water Demon several times with an A rank to unlock the shortcut (1 times on Easy / Normal, 2 Times on Hard.

Depend on the direction you choose some options will need to be considered, keep in mind however that there it is not necessary to do the Node A Shortcut

Below we will focus on the shortcut first before engaging in the actual battle. You are welcome to skip and go directly to attacking the Heavy Cruiser Princess.

Step 1a: Attack Port Darwin (Node A) and defeat the Harbor Water Demon

  • Note that it's completely possible to defeat Heavy Cruiser Princess without the need of unlocking extra route. This phase should be done only if your fleet can't finish off the boss in Final Form to take an alternative route to avoid one air raid!
  • Recommend Fleet: 2 CA, 1 CL, 2DD, 1 CVL (Fast Fleet)
  • Path: I-F-E-B-D-A
  • LBAS Recommendation:
    • LBAS 1: 1 Land Base Fighter, 3 Land Base Bombers (Distance of 7 Required)
  • On this path your fleet will take the shortest route
  • Your Fleet will encounter a surface fleet consisting of CLs and DD, Vanguard Formation is recommended.
  • Air Nodes will require decent air defense and AACI to pass efficiently. Use your CVL as a fighter mule, and bring a DD that can AACI to help efficiently past these nodes.
  • It's recommended to also bring some Anti-Installation equipment, but it's not necessary to use a nuke setup to efficiently kill the enemies in Node A.

Harbor Water Demon will usually have possibly have an Airfield Princess, 2 DD and 2 Transports. Having an LBAS target this node should make short work of the enemies allowing for your fleet to do extensive damage to the boss. All you will need is 1-2 A ranks to successfully complete the requirements.

Once you successfully complete the requirement you will open a shortcut through nodes J-S-P

Step 1b: Defeat the Heavy Cruiser Princess

  • Path: I-J-L-P-Q-R
  • Standard comp that DOES NOT go through the shortcut should you decide not to unlock it
  • You will encounter 2 Air Attack Nodes and 2 Surface Battle Nodes before reaching the boss
  • For the Air Nods, use Diamond formation and have a CVL that's a fighter mule along with AACI DD.
  • If you have some of the better planes, a CVL can easily get 110 AP 1 Fighter and 1 Fighter Bomber which you only need at minimum which is considered suitable enough to susive the air attacks. You can then use the other spots for torpedo bombers.
  • For the Surface Fleet, use Line Ahead or Vanguard Formation to take out or evade most of the enemies attacks and survive depending on what you bring.

  • Route: I-J-S-P-Q-R
  • Ths comp will allow you to take the shortcut if you completed Step 1a's process.
  • A Fast Fleet" is required to take this path.
  • Going through the shortcut and skipping one air raid node, also enabling second shelling at the boss node for higher chance of disabling the closing torpedo salvo from enemies
      • However, your fleet will become very light due to the presence of 4DDs, may cause higher retreat pre-boss
  • If you have some of the better planes, a CVL can easily get 110 AP 1 Fighter and 1 Fighter Bomber which you only need at minimum which is considered suitable enough to susive the air attacks. You can then use the other spots for torpedo bombers.
  • For the Surface Fleet, use Line Ahead or Vanguard Formation to take out or evade most of the enemies attacks and survive depending on what you bring.

Recommended LBAS

  • 4 Land Base Bombers (Range 6 Required)

The Heavy Cruiser Princess will be of a weaker variant that will consist of some CLs and DDs in her fleet. She will not have any airpower therefore allowing your fleet to get an easy AS if you bring a carrier with some fighter power. In addition to this, you can use an all bomber LBAS group to swiftly take out the majority of the enemy fleet so your fleet can focus more on the Princess.

The most effective way to win is to either have a DD that can TCI or use a ship with historical bonuses such as Atago, Takao, and Sendai who are most effective against the Princess with a double attack on this map. Bringing night battle gear such as a Night scout and star shells will also improve your win rate. Whichever method you choose you can make short work of her and eventually you will clear the map with little effort.
