Event Overview

(1/5) While more than 83% of survey participants cleared the event, there has been a significant amount of people who have not reached their own set goals for this event (26%). The official clear rate this Event was said to be 71% this event, so keep a surveybase with higher engagement than the regular playerbase in mind when reading this evaluation.
(2/5)Mirroring official clear rates the most commonly picked difficulty on all maps was hard. E2 seemed to be the map that would have the most people not choosing the highest difficulty.
(3/5)The rewards were mostly perceived as adequate, with a higher leaning towards "too bad" on E1, E2, E4 and E7.
(4/5)Friend Fleets have been used by 69% of players, most commonly starting from E6.
(5/5)The event would accrue an average rating of 6.8.

Newcomer Review

(1/3) Out of the new girls in the Event, it was a close race for Nevada and Rodney in terms of popularity with Javelin closing in third. Salmon, Asashi, Shirakumo and C.Cappellini would be the midfield, while the two DEs get left in the dust.
(2/3) When it came to assessing the usefulness in upcoming content, Rodney as an Big 7 Touch Ship would take the uncontested first place.
(3/3) As usual, the guaranteed reward ships have been acquired by most survey participants. In terms of ships that needed to be dropped, the acquisition rate hovered around 60%

(1/1) A close race between the European Little Sister Princess and the Fortified Pillbox Princess with the Standard Type Battleship Princess as a deserved third place. The new standard enemies would not enjoy much popularity in terms of design.

Map Details

(1/6) Most Players would be utilizing Line Ahead on E2P2, with a few dabbling in Vanguard and other Formations.
(2/6) On E3P3 more people would be using a Carrier Task Force than a STF.
(3/6) Using the Yamato-Class special attack was by far the most common way of dealing with E6P3, however lower dificulties would be more inclined to use either Nelson or Nagato-Class instead.
(4/6) Most survey participants would opt to use the Auxilliary Ship routing on E6P3.
(5/6) For E7P5 LD most players would not be utilizing the shortcut and instead route via U with a slow STF, with the Fast STF via V having less than half the users instead. Only a select few would go with the ultralight 3XX 1CL 8DD fleet, using the shortest route to the boss.
(6/6) While Nelson would be a very common pick for E7P5 LD, the utilisation of (Dupe) Yamato-Class should not be underestimated. The data for duplicate Yamato has not been specifically asked for, but inferred from E6P3 and E7P5 touch choices, accounting for difficulty.
