Before 1-4, Air Superiority really isn't a thing because you would naturally lack the resources to shoot down all the planes. What you want to do is pack all the firepower you can on your girls. Two 12.7cm main guns on your destroyers should suffice before they reach their upgraded tier. Likewise, Two 20cm main cannons (and a recon seaplane if possible) will be good on any light cruisers and heavy cruisers that you have. Once they're at their upgraded tier, the general set up is two red guns, a seaplane and really anything else.
Don't scrap any of your Damage Controls (which appear as white hammers), THEY'RE VERY IMPORTANT. |

So, since I'm rapidly approaching my endpoint in fuel and so want to record what likely will be my final ship count for E-7: aka FARM ALL THE MAPS!!!!
Haul, throughout the event: Kumano, Hayashimo, Katsuragi, I-19, Naganami, Littorio, Yamagumo, Akitsushima, Takanami, I-8, Tanikaze, Ooyodo, Amatsukaze, Yuugumo, Unryuu, Nowaki, Tokitsukaze, U-511x2 Hopefully I'll add Roma to this list, but I won't be fussed if I don't. I already got quite the haul.

Just cleared the event, doing Medium for every level except E-6. Pickups so far are: Katsuragi, Littorio, Akitsushima, Roma, Suzuya, Souryuu, Ooyodo, Kiyoshimo, and Makigumo.
Gonna keep at E-6 in hopes of getting Yuu, and after that, head back to E-1 for Amatsukaze.

Just cleared 5-2. It was a little bit aggrevating as 5-2-B had 1 or 2 Flagship Yo-Class who liked to crit my weaker ships while Node G had a Flagship Ta-Class in Line Ahead who just liked to crit all of my ships. I beat Southern War Demon though and it was Akatsuki's ending torpedo that did it (and she had nothing but ASW equipment! The good girl :3). Did some celebratory LSC since its the end of the month andddddddddddd...
Spoiler: show I have a Yamato now! So many ships, not enough slots orz.

Looks like it's official:
I was right! \o/ Kouwansuiki is Kouwanseiki, just in a different form. Maybe? ^^; There's still the matter of Suiki having a different voice than Seiki's. But considering that the picture above is the new official final form of the Harbour Princess, and given that she looks identical face-wise and boobs-wise to Harbour Water Demon, either:

Ehhhh, there are still some notable differences in the design. Her rigging is remarkably different from HWD, lacking the cranes and notably the large solitary cannon, and she also has white claws instead of black ones. The face is remarkably similar (I even mixed up the two lol).
One of the things I find interesting is her equipment set-up. It's not Harbour Water Demon's, but Anchorage Water Demon's. I think its also notable that her pose is very similar to Anchorage's. Not identical, but similar. Her fleet is also identical to Anchorage's fleet in E-5. Land Installation, two Escort Fortresses, 1 Ru-Class Flagship Kai, and 2 Late Model DDs. The exact formation. Her stats are more on part with Anchorage as well (although her armor is much lower). I personally think that HWD and HP are still two seperate entities right now, but I'm not going to deny there is a connection. But, its worth noting that 4-5, on the timeline, happens after the Spring event. I think its possible that we are seeing some sort of desperate reusing, trying to salvage as much of the fleet's previous strength as possible. Hence the similarities to the Spring Event's bosses.

Everything you listed in the first paragraph as rebuttal can be summed up in three words: change of clothes.

So 4-5 is really hard.
There is two main routes you can take: BCFJM or BEHM B Node is a Manual Choice node. It allows you to make the choice between either C or E. C Node isn't exactly hard, but really annoying. Every formation is either Line Ahead (so they do extra damage) or Double Line (extra accuracy). 1 Ta-Class, 2 Ri-Class, 1 Tsu-Class and 2 stormtrooper grunts. The Ta is the really only threatening one, but because of the formations and because of pure luck, I've gotten sent back before for different reasons (fucking Tsu-class critting Suzuya into taiha ;A;). F node is a joke. Sub node with no real threat. J node is a lot like C. It's either Double Line or Diamond (pray for Diamond, it reduces their accuracy and damage output), but instead of the 2 Ri-Class, you get a Nu-Class and a Ne-Class. The Ne-Class is virtually a Ta-Class as well, only barely weaker while having a powerful ending torpedo stat. "But Blaze! Couldn't you go BEHM? That sounds shorter!" It is. But E node is a Night Battle involving the mighty BRS, a Ri-Class who for all intents and purposes is a stronger Ta-Class with a massive torpedo stat and a good 40 luck for cut-ins. More Ne-Class, but its worth noting they have 70 luck, which means even with a Searchlight and Star Shells, she will still give you hell with cut-ins. Oh, and more Ta-Class. And H...well...FUCK.THIS.NODE. A Demon type enemy with massive armor making her nearly unkillable in the daytime, Wo-Class Flagship II with Hellcats (affectionately known as "Takoyaki Wo") and Ru-Class Flagship Kai. Bulky as hell, stronger than Wanko and Re-Class. And one of the formations has two of each. The only gift you get is a He-Class. Okay no. fuck this node ;^; It's been massively irritating, and especially having to deal with another Ru Flagship Kai at the boss node and missing the kill several times. Just. Irritating. To TTKs who are thinking of challenging 4-5, you need to be prepared.

So I managed to beat 4-5 yesterday. I got pretty lucky with the pre-boss nodes, and Yamato opened up on the Ru-Class Kai so things went rather swimmingly from there. Kumano ended up scoring the final kill with a 160 damage crit if I remember correctly. Ended up getting Hayashimo as a drop. lol OTL.
Looks like they are adding in the third map of World 6. I am distinctly scared.

I haven't even reached world 6 yet and the thought of there being a new map is frightening, but at the same time I hope it's difficult and not a cakewalk like some of the maps have been. Maybe similar difficulty to event maps. Every map in world 6 are boss maps, aren't they? |

Yeah, I still need to start the conquest of World 5. Played a bit tonight, did some leveling while I sent out expeditions and did some dailies. Hopefully I can get back into it, get some buckets, do some leveling, and get through World 5 by the end of the summer.

So even after maxing out my fleet's morale, I'm still having a lot of issues with 5-3. I'm thinking of dropping the Searchlight. The bonus is gives is very small (it only reduces an opponent's cut-in chance by 5% I think) and the main issue is its leaving Akatsuki super open (haha irony). Just had to retreat because the Ta-Class Flagship did a double attack on Akatsuki (which the Searchlight does nothing to protect) and shot her all the way into critical. I just wish the Ta-Class wasn't the first ship in the fleet, otherwise I'd have a much better chance of killing it.
Thoughts?

I missed you last event...farmed long and hard for you at E6. Instead I got two U-511 and a Sakawa.
But know this, Roma does exist. My Summer Event Experiences so far: E1: Okay this wasn't too bad, seeing the power of upgraded planes was cool. E2: I probably should have used Hibiki but this map wasn't too bad go Hatsushimo with the final kill cut-in. E3: OMG FUCK OFF CV ONI okay medium okay this is a LOT easier omg final kill is the exact same fleet as hard omg i cleared it in one try gfdi E4: literal hell 1 week at henderson's fuck the ru-class kai fuck the wo fuck the night battles fuck the ta fuck henderson seriously why isn't my type 3 shell working fuck not getting rare drops E5: Wow this is nice and easy what the hell happened to the event is it sick I GOT ROMA

Alright so I've tapped out of this event. I farmed for so long for Akitsumaru that it blew a hole right through my resources. So I'm not getting Teruzuki sadly, hopefully the devs decide to be nice and make her a drop in the Fall or Winter events.
But, for the haul: Kawakaze, Zuihou, Haysui, Roma, Libeccio, Taigei, Akitsumaru Oh yeah and in the celebratory LSC I uh Spoiler: show Spoiler: show I got the remaining Battleships for my fleet.

So both Emi and I are sort of prepping for the next event which is the Autumn event which will be based off battles around Kolombangara Island. Wherever that is, I have no flippin' clue.
We are never ready. We will be pouring salt endlessly for two weeks. We're also probably going to just rage quit like last event at some point. In other news, our fleets are substantially better than last time so there's that. |

This event is supposed to be easy, and it can't be nearly as bad as the last event, which was ridiculously stupidly hard for pretty much everyone. :p
I will probably spend all the resources farming for Akizuki tho

Don't you just love tripping death flags, Emi? The salt will probably be a mountain from you being unable to get Akizuki. *coughexpendingluckwithdoubleBisMusashiLSC*

The event has started, which means its time for wishlists, salt, poor drops, more salt, so many taihas, much more salt, and glory. Did I mention salt?
Wishlist (will be updated as more information comes out): Kazagumo (E1 boss drop), Akizuki (Said to be droppable in E1 to E3 by devs), Prinz Eugen (E4 drop), Mizuho (Drop confirmed by devs), Graf Zeppelin (SOMEWHERE in E4, either as a drop or a reward), Hagikaze (E5 reward), Arashi (E5 drop), Kashima (E3 reward), Noshiro (E2 Boss Drop), Agano (E2 Boss Drop), Umikaze (E3 Boss Drop) Spoils: Akizuki, Prinz Euugen, Umikaze, Hagikaze, Kashima, I think a few others

Kancolle (well, Kancolle Kai that is, the PSVita version) finally has one of the USN. The interesting thing is...well... Quote:
