==Totaku's Proposal (Finalizing for Friend Fleet)==

'''Preparation'''

'''Preparation'''

Since this event will be a large scale event, '''There will be many locks that you will need to deal with so you must carefully plan out your ships you bring as they will have an impact on later maps, please carefully consider before you partake in the maps.'''

'''The event is likely to have several shiplocks (E-1 to E-4 already contain 4 separate locks), please plan your locks carefully.'''

For this operation, you will be depending on a light fleet to complete a transport operation and ultimately take out a boss of this map. There are several ships that do have bonuses for the area that are associated with Ki-504 and the 5th Fleet from the North Pacific. Below is the list of the following ships that have bonuses on this map:

* All other DDs bonus - 1.09x (all nodes)

* All DE - 1.34x (all nodes)

* All DEs - 1.34x (all nodes)

As a reminded, '''be careful who you pick as many of these ships also have bonuses for later maps!''' As of current, only [[Akebono]] and [[Ushio]] don't have bonuses to the later maps so they may be a more recommended choice for this map. But do note that things are subject to change once more information is released.

'''Some ships also have bonuses in later maps!''' [[Akebono]] is probably a safe choice to lock here, possibly [[Ushio]] as well. But things are subject to change once more information is available.

'''Phase 1: Transport Phase'''

'''Phase 1: Transport Phase'''

* '''Composition:''' '''1CL/DE,4-5 DD'''

* '''Route: A-B-C-D-G-(H/J)-K-L '''

* '''Route: A-B-C-D-G-(H+I/J)-K-L '''

* D and G being Submarine Nodes, H/J light surface engagements and L the transport boss with a Submarine Flagship.

* D and G being Submarine Nodes, H/J light surface engagements and L the transport boss with a Submarine Flagship.

* Depending on the difficulty and the number of ships will decide whether you will form '''G-J-K''' or '''G-H-K''' so carefully consider.

** I is an additional submarine node which you may be routed to depending on fleet composition (as of this time, 1CL 5DD appears to route this way).

** If you plan to use the '''G-J-K''' on Hard, you will need to limit yourself to 5 ships which may mean less TP.

** But it is not a particularly dangerous node and is probably worth taking to reduce the TP gauge more quickly with more ships overall.

* Also Depending on the ships you take along with equipment (mainly LoS) will determine whether you will form '''G-J-K''' or '''G-H-K''' so carefully consider.

* [[Daihatsu]]s and [[Drum Canister]]s help accelerate emptying the TP gauge. Keep in mind that this may take a while depending on the difficulty and you may wish to preserve Daihatsu carrying ships to later event maps.

Boss at node L is a Submarine along with a team of destroyers, if you bring the recommended gear, you should be able to pass the node successfully under double line. Repeat until TP gauge is clear.

'''Phase 2: Unlocking the Boss'''

'''Phase 2: Unlocking the Boss (Hard Mode Only)'''

As part of the requirements to unlock the path to the boss you will need to clear Node F with an S rank. This can be done but Phase 1.

Once the conditions from phase 1 and 2 are met the path to the boss node is open.

Defeating [[Abyssal Kurile Island Princess]] should be simple in most casse if you remember to bring historical ships and a good TCI unit. At 590 HP and 200 Armour on hard mode she is quite tanky and is being escorted by one submarine, but the rest of her escort is not threatening as they mainly consist of only destroyers. Having an OASW ship or two can wipe out the sub easily before the battle begins as you will need to focus on wiping out her escort fleet before night battle. In addition, with her tanky armor, she will need a strong attack to take her down. So if you have historical ships like [[Ushio]] and [[Akebono]] present it should make it more likely to finish her off.

In addition, with her tanky armor, she will need a strong attack to take her down. So if you have historical ships like [[Ushio]] and [[Akebono]] present it should make it more likely to finish her off.

While it is not necessary, if for some reason she provides difficulty in clearing, you can resort to supporting shelling to make it more easy to win.
