'''Phase 3 Boss bonuses'''

*SPF/SPB: 1.3x
*T3 Shell: 1.35x
*DB: 1.4x
*2DB. 2.1x
Phase 1: Sink [[Summer Harbor Princess]]
The goal of phase 1 is to sink [[Summer Harbor Princess]] either using a single fleet or a Surface Task Force. The boss in this phase is an installation so the usage of T3 shells and WG are advised. (need confirmation about T89 and Ka Mi tanks.
Composition
* 1 FBB 1 CV 1-2 CAV 2-3 DD
* 2 FBB 1 CAV 1 CV 2 DD + 1 CL 2 DD 2 CLT 1 CAV (can we get confirmation on if using CAs instead of DDs work?)
A single fleet allows you to conserve additional ships from being locked at the cost of requiring node support to reliability pass '''J''' node. '''(Might want to note some positives, my opinion is that this is the weaker composition overall)'''
Using the Surface Task Force composition allows for you to skip the usage of node support but in return you will take an additional sub node '''K'''. This composition has a stronger performance at the boss due to the extra shelling rounds and ability to bring more installation killing ships.
Phase 2: Sink [[Anchorage Water Demon]] (Vacation Mode)
Composition
* STF: 2 (F)BB(V) 1 CV(B) 3 CA(V) + 1 CL 1-2 CA(V) 1-2 CLT 2 DD
* CTF: 3 CV(B) 2 CA(V) 1 SS(V) + 1 CL 1-2 CA(V) 1-2 CLT 2 DD
notes
SSV tanking can be used to distract boss and nu
Boss in LD does not target sub anymore
Phase 3: Sink [[German Escort Princess]]
Composition
* CTF: 3 CV(B) 1 SS(V) 2 CA(V) + 1 CL 1-2 CA(V) 2 DD 1-2 CLT 0-1 CVL
This boss fight is extremely difficult due to the lack of post-cap modifiers given against the rest of the enemies on the boss node as well as the bosses extremely high armor.
It's advised to in mind the historical and equipment post-cap modifiers granted against the boss while equipping your fleet for this battle.
'''Any ships that do not utilize these modifiers will have trouble breaking through the armor outside of a critical, so please plan accordingly.'''
notes
Carriers should be equipped for Carrier CI (CVI), 1TB/2DB/1 fighter
CAV should either be equipped with seaplane fighters (SPF) or T3 shells.
SSV used for sub tanking enemies in the boss node and supplement air power.
