Is cut not as good as double attacks then?


The drop of this game is fairly strange. I means before 2-1, i only had 1 CA and 1 CL and the rest was DD. Then from 2-1 onward, heavy cruisers drops were even more than DD.
Then reached 2-4 two days ago. By this point yesterday, i was still praying to God for a BB (if you remember, i was ranting about how i only had Akagi, Hiei and Hiyou that capable of sinking ship). Suddenly now, got Fusou and Yamashiro from drops almost consecutively, while get Kirishima from construction as well...


....is it possible that Akagi will start to drop like freebies at one point too? 0_0

Akagi is obtainable from quest. I haven't gotten one from drop yet, though.

Is the tactic of using one single sub to rush through 2-4 working? Because that really sounds quite risk free (Hoping it does not receive heavy damage along the way , of course)

You need to sink the boss of 2-4 to clear the map...
So I dont think one ss can cut it...
Minimal 2 so you can hit 4 of your enemy...

Yes. I used I-168 and I-58 to speed-clear clear mine. Sort of. Your subs STILL have to be levels 25 and up though to try.

And no, you don't have to sink the Battleship, just get a score of A and up.

Actually, Cut-in do not miss, but the damage dealt can be greatly reduced. I noticed that DD and CL often received reduced damage compared to heavier ships.

Depends of the situation. Cut-in deals insane burst damage but not all the time and its activation is less consistent than double attack. Also certain ships benefit more from one setup than another: Kitakami and Ooi are just scary with double attacks while most DD fare much better with cut-in especially Yukikaze.
Also, cut-in seems less hazardous with BB as double attacks can lead to disastrous results (seeing a lvl75 kongou double attacking for 1 digit each salvo against an enemy CA is beyond depressing).

The drop of this game is fairly strange.

It is standard: craft relies heavily on your luck. Meanwhile, maps are a bit less hazardous on that regard since drop table tend to be a bit better over time. Suffice to say, Fusou and Yamashiro aren't rare at all. Rarity 3 (gold) is the starting point and the real pain are rarity 4 and 5 (rainbow / sparking rainbow): people who can't drop/craft Nagato are still numerous, the same can be said for the crane sisters, Shokaku and Zuikaku despite they are "just" gold ships.

For instance, I haven't yet dropped Akagi, and the only rarity 4 and 5 I got as drops are Shimakaze and Mutsu, only once each one of them.

One of them is not enough. Also, I really don't suggest that tactic since you are going to miss tons of exp, which will make maps 3 and 4 a pain despite they are jokes if you did 2-4 the "normal" way.

Since everyone can get Akagi by quest, the decision is probably that most players shouldn't need a 2nd one, so the game puts her in the rare corner to not make people mad that she keeps popping up.

I was trying to craft Yukikaze today with various recipe on JP wiki, and got Shokaku. I don't even know how should I feel .

-imagery redacted-

I couldn't help but chuckle at those; good on you for sharing them with us. On a vaguely related note, now I'm wondering what might result from trying to moe-ify Tholian ships from Star Trek Online...

No, it hasn't been implemented yet.

Any tip on E-2

Night battle so i has been trying to use my lighter fleet for it. But always either being moderately damaged half way and have to retreat. At this rate have to depend too much on the Goddess of RNG, as my fleet probably has fairly low evasion

I have a bad new for you. You have to pray more. I was stuck at the boss with the HP bar at zero just because my fleet doesn't feel like hitting her.

Anyway, if you can, put a high level sub as your flagship. That will save you from a lot of critting. You need a turbine for your sub, though. Use horizon line formation for high defense. I purposely put a CV into my party to avoid killing all of the enemy's elite so we can go to day battle, but that is not recommended.

Always risky with a low-level fleet, as Klash already mentioned that the level difference WILL make a difference. My fleet was made up of 31s, and I was still at the mercy of RNG until I had a two-fleet rotation on it.

Needless to say, Destroyers and Light Cruisers shine in this map, but Battlecruisers and Heavy Cruisers have their place, if only because they can soak up more punishment. Equip for double attack, and pray your ships double attack more than the Abyssals do.

Yeah. i guess it's gonna be difficult unless RNG Goddess shine on me...
Maybe should skip this event, hold on resources to lvl my ship squad and wait for the next? (and hope they eventually introduce Noshiro to be constructable sometime in the future) .


My current problem is Akagi is eating up all of the exp. She is way ahead in level, lvl 49 when the three closest is only 31, 29, 27 (while the rest is only 20~ish). Partly because others can be rotated while waiting to be repaired. But Akagi is too crucial that i only repair her over night, or have to resort to the bucket

[Duo Maxwell]

You still have about 10 days left. No need to rush. The event is extended to 27th Nov.

[Myssa Rei]

Also, Akagi, as a carrier, is pretty much useless at E-2 (night battle means no planes!), so focus on building up light cruisers and destroyers.

[blitz1/2]

Too bad I like the designs of the enemy vessels more than the main girls.
