Best 1-5 fleet arrangement would be.

CVL (flag)
BBV
DD/CL
DD/CL

I noticed (in my case) that the silly troll sub at 1st node tends to target #2 and #3 often.
You'd really want your CVL and BBV to fire first so they'll get to sink the trash subs before your DD/CL's can target the big ones. Less targets, better chances.

And for every 20 runs, I only waste around 4-5 buckets

apparently i got akashi without me knowing it lol..seems i got her as my 99/100 ship get lol

Cyprene · 2014-10-27, 10:48

Congratulations, man. Enjoy your upgrades!

Myssa Rei · 2014-10-28, 05:18

Kind of wondering about the screws though, as there doesn't seem to be any way to replenish them, and the daily quest involving them... requires that you use a screw to get one back.

On the bright side, I'm back to 700 buckets. That means around 60-odd ones to go before I'm back to the numbers I had before I tried to farm Akashi. Will I try to farm 1-5 again for another Akashi just to get more repair equipment though? Hmm... XD

Next up on the Kai 2 schedule are: Myouko and Hibiki (70).

Weeklies.
Which is why I said you need to have invested a lot of time in it...

... but of course, there's always the option of the magic card.

And apparently it's going to based on Operation Kon, which was the defense of Biak Island:

Quote:

On June 10, 1944 both Yamato and Musashi were committed to Operation Kon, to relieve the Japanese garrison on Biak Island off the Northern Coast of New Guinea. However before the superbattleships could join the operation, the Americans invaded the island of Saipan and Operation Kon was cancelled.

Wonder how they'd sneak the Combined Fleet into this one, if ever.

panzerfan · 2014-10-28, 21:33

Well, I did a write-up on the World of warships forum about this... this is the order of battle in the three phases of the Biak reinforcement operation, 1944.

1st Biak featured 4 squadrons. May 29th.
Main Supply squadron: Aoba, Kinu, Shikinami, Uranami, Shigure.
Support squadron: minelayer Tsugaru, minelayer Itsukushima, LSC no.103, I-36, I-37
Early warning group: Myoko, Haguro, Shiratsuyu, Samidare, Harusame,
Escort: Fuso, Kazegumo, Asagumo (both Yuugumo class)

2nd Biak reinforcement, June 8th,
Shikinami, Uranami, Shiratsuyu, Shigure, Samidare, Harusame
Harusame sank.

3rd Biak, June 10th,
Assault squadron: Yamato, Musashi, Myoko, Haguro, Noshiro, Okinami (Yuugumo class), Shimakaze, Asagumo
Transport squadrion: Aoba, Kinu, Michishio, Nowaki, Yamagumo (Asashio class), two minelayers, I-36, LSC no.127
Supply squadron: 1 tanker, I-37, 1 minesweeper.

Hmm... hard to tell much of anything from that, beyond that the last stage's going to take a big ol' battleship fleet. I've got a feeling Fusou Kai Ni might be useful too.

3 BB Hime for the boss node then!!

Cyprene · 2014-10-29, 01:43

At some point it's just going to be a line of Dysons and then a single elite flagship sub, isn't it?

Lantern · 2014-10-29, 02:11

BBV Hime or Flag Re Kai?

Nothing exactly new but they confirmed Ushio and Yamashiro's Kai ni will be introduced with the next update.

Ushio's Kai 2 is confirmed, but Yamashiro's is still tentatively this fall. My guess is that it will be introduced after the event.

risingstar3110 · 2014-10-29, 22:49

So you guys prepared for the next event? Ships? Resources? Buckets?

A 'game' that I will steal from another forum, basically to give you the general outlook of your fleet. It is to list the ship ranked based on their level at every 10 ranks. For example my case is:

01st: Haruna lvl 142
11th: I-168 lvl 99
21st: Chiyoda lvl 98
31st: Akagi lvl 97
41st: Shoukaku lvl 96
51st: Hyuuga lvl 96
61st: Bismarck lvl 91
71st: Z3 lvl 76
81st: Akatsuki lvl 61
91st: Inazuma lvl 48
101st: Tokitsukaze lvl 36

So if you looks at it. You will see my waifu Haruna. Then a sea wall of subs level 99 above everyone else. They are part of fifty ships level 96+ my main fleets, with all the BB and CV ready. While followed by around 25 ships or so in currently under grinding (include Bismarck, from 81st to 51st). While anything below lvl 61 are just expeditions DD, or spare ships. Indicate pretty well the current state of my fleets

Cyprene · 2014-10-30, 17:33

Am I reading that right? Do you seriously have over 60 ships above level 90?

I have 3: Ryuujou, Kitakami, and Ooi. And I thought I was in okay shape for the event.
I've got 538 buckets, 60.8k fuel, 72.1k ammo, 77.7k steel, and 46.8k bauxite. If I play cautiously, wait for solid information, and continue gathering resources over the next two weeks, I'm pretty confident I'll do alright.

**Klashikari** · 2014-10-30, 17:50

Past level 70-80, the benefit of levels aren't that noticeable (especially with 90+).
Also, sheer number of high leveled ships doesn't mean anything if most of them are BB, SS and CLT which happen for a lot of people.
I have 38 ships that are 90+ and I don't feel like I have a urge need for more. That's also why I don't see the point of displaying one's full roster.

What's more important is the variety of ships and equipements you have at your disposal. Al/Mi nailed the point thoroughly.

Kakurin · 2014-10-30, 18:27

Hmm, I wonder about my readiness for the event in regard to my HQ level (89, soon to be 90, damn, why does it rise so quickly

). 38 girls are at or over level 50, twenty are over 60, nine over 70 and three over 80. Of those 38 five are destroyers, five light cruisers, six heavy cruisers, nine battleships, five light carriers, five fleet carriers and three submarines.

**Klashikari** · 2014-10-30, 18:45

Considering this event was confirmed to be on a lower tier than summer event, you should be fine.
In any case, it is best to stick with resources gathering and smooth exp grinding / equipment crafting than worry about "what if" scenarios.

That said, those who don't have many different ships, they ought to do something about it now, as the staff stated combined fleet mechanics will be back in this event.

Kakurin · 2014-10-30, 18:58

That's good then. Right now doing expeditions with three fleets and the fourth is either doing 3-2 leveling runs, easy winnable PVPs, or 2-3 sub dailies.
