I should consider switching to that second composition too. All things considered, AA Cut-in didn't matter that much. Also, fuck that double Ru gauntlet.

After a lot of annoying struggle with the second form of E2's boss I had to resort to using a boss support. And voila, it did the trick. Except that the boss support didn't actually do much and I happened to clear it safely this time around because RNG gotta spite me, right? I got Uzuki pre-boss and Amatsukaze at boss in this same run which made me pretty happy. Also got Maikaze. Those 3 are new to my fleet. Anyway, time to start the calm before the storm that is E3.
You're not. The arranged ED music specifically made for the boss battle is pretty nifty.

E5 is simply Summer E6, but MUCH worse.
-Node 1 will just demolish your fleet if you use the regular combined fleet, simply because your escort fleet won't be able to put the CL suiki and the Tsu class in chuuha, and these two will always put someone in chuuha/taiha with their torpedo. What's more fun? Looks like the CL suiki has enough AA or something similar to AA cut-in. -E has a certain chance to screw you BIG time with the 4BB, while F is tedious because of so many avengers planes. -G H I is THE bane. Similar to Summer 2014 E6 node H, these 3 nodes have a Kuubo Seiki that will completely ignore the advantage of the combined fleet. And don't expect her to be "nerfed" like in Fall 2014. She is damn accurate whereas the late model DD will stall the BB for a long time. Fun fact: The DD critted Musashi for 35 here. Everyone else was slaughtered by the seiki alone. 13 runs, 11k/8k/10k/1.5K, 40 buckets. No damage dealt on the boss... in fact, I never reached it.

Apparently Observation planes can help you get to the Boss nodes a lot more reliably.
The composition that is suggested on the wiki for e2 vs what I had to use to kill the BB at the boss node too: Suggested at the time I started: 2 BB 1 CA 2CVL 1CV What I actually need: 3 BB, 1CV, 1 CVL, 1 CA 1 BB - Kai CA - Kai CV: 18 Reppu, 18 Zero 51, 27 Ryussei 10 Suisei 12A CVL: 12 21 Zero, 18 Suisei, 18 Tenzan, 10 Zero 21 Note that this is on easy - and that battleship can still stop me cold if I got bad luck. Mutsu(kai) Repair time 4:40:00 at 50% dmg<-- a lot considering I started last week... Total ressource consumption: 470;520 per sortie I just wonder if I have to use ships of the same model to modernize or if I can just consume my exra Fusous to modernize Mutsu... In comparison: E1 was soable even without any Anti.-Sub at all., so that I already remorsed having chosen easy difficulty... XP gain vs Difficulty: Seriously, 2-2 is easier and gives more XP... HQ XP on the other hand rises fast makingthe event generally harder. Thinking of equipping all of them with repair teams so I don't have to end the sortie after every time someone gets hit. Just not sure if they are consumed when used...

any ship can modernize any ship. There isn't a self-fusion bonus like some games have. The main thing is that you want the resulting stat number to be even since if the upgrade "fails" you get 50% of the projected value instead of full value.

As for E1, is it recommended to go combined fleet? But from what I heard, easy mode is too easy. But I don't seem to have the gutter to participate it yesterday. Anyway, what can you recommend? My base level is now 16. |

Afterwards the battleships can really make life hard for you (at least for actual beginners) I'm pretty much out of fuel atm thanks to having to counter those battleships and the Boss killrate is still 'just' 80%' for E2 I think akagi actually gets flagship protected by the other ships... Otherwise I can't explain how everyone but her gets hit That all is on base level 30 - the event can actually push you up through the ranks pretty fast (5 or 6 levels for me until now) - which will inevitably make it harder. As for the difficulty: Depends on your ships - If you have a lot of Kai's you can at least attempt medium; if not stick with easy; Its sad because the rewards are worse, but battleships can really frustrate you later on :/. As for the combined fleet - I didn't need it for E1, I tried but it didn't even hit, so it was a total waste. I have yet to try in E2 though, both were until now doable without them though.

Well, it's not all bad. the E4 is not hard at all. Thanks to advice on team composition from another forum, I was able to get a nice composition for lower route.
The lower DGIK route for E4 is reachable when I opt for 2x FBB (Haruna and Bismarck.) I will be doing E5 in a bit.

Looking around for info gathered so far, don't seems like HQ level affects which enemies you encounter. It only affects what difficulty levels you can choose.
