well this was a doozy, final kill took me half a day. Didn't use node support at all btw

10k baux, 20k steel, 17k ammo, 30k fuel for E6H alone.

Now back to E5
Jinxy

First run had KC3 crash on me just as I reached Lycoris, 10 runs required to clear after that, 3.5 hours, 5 clean kills, 2 unclean kills that added up to exactly one clean kill's worth.

Probably got the luckier end of the stick for this map.



Fleet setup, though Yuudachi was originally using WG42 until last kill, where I switched to Bofors because WG42 wasn't doing much, plus she was usually disabled by NB.

Main fleet 6/6 sparkled, node support 6/6 sparkled, boss support 4/6 sparkled. Irako MVP.

LBAS 1: 3 fighters + 1 land bomber, focus on boss
LBAS 2: 3 land bombers + 1 fighter, focus on boss

Just realised KC3 was recording the number of runs I've done. All on Hard:
E1: 5
E2: 15
E3: 8
E4: 7
E5: 11
E6: 20

Gonna do my monthlies to restock my Irako, then start on E7 tomorrow probably. As for the difficulty, still considering.
Juuryoushin
E7 seems to have a much easier route with Not-so-useless Kamo around.
You're basically avoiding a horrible threesome with 2 CV Himes punctuating holes everywhere ....
You have 9 days left though, I don't know how your bauxite is doing cause it's damn expensive compared to the usual.
Jinxy
Yeah, I read about it, also seems to need a fast fleet. Probably going

Taitei/Maya/1-2fBB/2-3CV + 1-2 fBB/2DD/1-2CA(V)/Ooyodo

As for resources, I think I'm doing pretty well.


I also only have 4.5/9 days since I don't have access during the weekdays \:D/

I'll gauge if I want to Hard by testing how it goes this weekend, if I can get to less than half or even last kill. Will go Easy otherwise.
Juuryoushin
Damn, still really high after 6 maps, looks like you have a pretty good chance to make it through.
Jinxy
I forgot Akitsushima is a slow ship lol, guess I can't have my cake and eat it too.

Rolling with 2fBB/2BBV/1CV/AKSM + 1DD/Akizuki/1fBB/Ooyodo/2CAV now, though I've been adjusting it quite a lot every few runs (started with 2CLT, for example). Nearly chipped Central to last kill, but haven't gotten a clean kill yet.
Jinxy


Cleared E7E. Yeah, E.

My original plan was to sparkle throughout the week and go for a H final kill push next Friday, dropping to E on Saturday if required. Then I remembered I wouldn't have time to farm for more WG42 and Seiran.

Easy is hilarious with CTF, managed to get a bunch of day S clears, and even one Day Perfect S. All with no support expeditions.

17 E7H attempts (6 being final kill), 8 E7E attempts. First E attempt was a STF which didn't go well at all, but the rest were full sinks.

I'm done with the event, and probably the game as well. Screw E-6.

Installations are immune to torpedoes btw

While E6/7 is pretty bullshit either way, I wouldn't discount having more anti-installation shipgirls, I cleared E6 with a sanshiki hit instead of an airstrike nuke

On an unrelated note, I managed to get KC3 Kai working on my tablet, which is the only piece of tech I have access to in the past 4 days

and welp

Literally got one a day

@piruchan: I don't know if you're still on E-6, but really, it's doable. Make sure you bring as many WG42s as you can, and use all of your dive (red) bombers on your fleet carriers and aerial support expedition. If you can get a 721 roll on boss like that, you're bound to get enough damage from another source. Of course, don't forget your sanshikis (Type 3) on your cruisers.
piruchan
I don't have any WG42. That fleet is loaded with all the sanshikis, red bombers, and zuiuns I have.
Oinari-sama
lol...

Started playing KanColle in late Feb so this is my first event. Came into action under-supplied (and lacking ships/levels) so I'm satisfied to finish with 4N + 3E to bring Iowa home :D

Good thing about being new is that almost every rare drop is a useful drop wwww

I am actually becoming jealous of all the people who don't already have almost everything because of this fact.

I suspect that's how TTKs turn Abyssal lol

Was a fun meme event :^)

Starting the event w/ not-so great amount of res and drugsbuckets

It was a good decision for me for skipping E5, I managed to survive somehow...

What the hell, finished THIS event at HQ 78 ?
Geez, respect.
Kitsunemimi
And the results are in~

Here are this event's haul. It's a little less impressive this time (includes reward ships).



As you might have guessed, I had another hell grind for this event (Unryuu)... which is a rather questionable decision considering the scale of the event and the situation with my resources after my ranking grind in April.

It took 131 S-ranks (Unryuu is about a 1.5% drop), and I actually got her while clearing the boss after giving up on the grind. The chart only includes select ships (mostly 2%). There are a bunch of other 2% ships that I got from my 131 S-ranks.


And finally, just for fun, here is my resource summary:
The first milestone line represents when I start the event, and the others represent when I clear a map.
...Yeah, safe to say I wasn't really expecting an event of this scale at the beginning... and I wasn't really prepared. I also foolishly did an LSC for a Maruyu after clearing E-2, as seen in the dip.

tfw trying to construct more destroyers for E-6 and then i get hit with



still it helped me clear E-6, thought i didn't get Iowa :(

Ei, finally Android app coming out!
Quite good, but a bit lag coz of my phone spec. To open the game (logging in) it needs vpn tho.
Qukekid
So this happen
Drum rolls*
The good news is


And the bad news
Juuryoushin
Fuck, they changed the plan for Asashio, my bad for telling crap information right off the bat.

Oinari-sama
The Android app runs totally fine :D
Jinxy
News:
  1. Konishi is good at drawing good looking girls, bad at making any sort of interesting pose or face
    > literally loli Oyashio/Agano
  2. After countless buffs and attempts to give her a niche (lolAACI), Isuzu K2 is finally not useless with new pre-emp ASW mechanic
    Alternatively, get any DD/CL to 100 ASW according to the ingame stat screen. Improvements don't count for shit
    Speaking of which, inb4 double SS Hime for Summer 16
  3. Quarterly Quests added
  4. Iowa is no longer a stormtrooper when using her own guns
  5. Her guns can also be upgraded to have like a million accuracy, at a cost of like a million screws
  6. New (shitty) fighters, and many can now be improved to be better (or less shitty).
  7. And last but not least, I still have no access to the android app
this has been idgaf news, reporting live 3-4 days later
Juuryoushin
Some people are seeing this update as the 1-5 ultimate farm rebirth, particularly for Top 500ing every month.
Might be good instead of fucking 4-3 or for Unlimited Submarine Works. (OR FUCKING BW1)
That said, I'm going to rank this month, teehee.

lol'ed

Official release coming soon anyway. Seems like a lot of veterans missed out on beta compared to new TTK lol (or it could be that veterans are more likely to post)
_HiguchiKaede
Konishiii :) :) <333

Hwww long time no see my naval base, its been awhile I go since the latest updates. Time to put Asashio to the boot camp~ 8-)
I-I mean grinding her to K2
Oinari-sama
Well make sure to check your phone again at the next update (July 15th). Sounds like the devs will open the beta to all pre-registered user.
Juuryoushin

That said, I have other targets to take care of.

;-; A lot of "notabale" ship are underleveled, but im getting there its daijobu :D
Juuryoushin
What we know so far is:

- Medium Scale (4-5 maps ?)
- CarrierColle once more
- Somewhere in August

My two bets are one or 2 SS maps and an eventual Canal Hime barging in.
Oinari-sama
Maintenance's over. Time to check out KC Android if you've missed out previously :)
