Wait, they added new node support options from the events to regular maps?
You could always bring support expedition in world 5 right. Night support was added after those 7 ships in a fleet event I think.

Btw, 4-2 is a nice map to farm transport now. I could get like 5 transports in one sortie with barely any buckets used. 3 at G node and 2 at boss node.
My formation was CVL + 2CV + CAV + 2DD. If they go through north route, it'll have a high chance to get 5 transport kills on that run. Preboss only have some CA, CL and DD (and SS if you're unlucky) so your carrier could clear them easily.

Yeah, it didn't activate at night though, and of course I never had to use support on World 5 once they made it easier anyway...

I miss orel for farming. It feels weird, I don't know where to go now. I guess 2-1 for CV kills and then 2-2 for Transport kills until you unlock the World 3/4 weeklies but meh. Killing orel kind of killed the game for me. lol

I don't think there's replacement for orel now lol. It's a miracle a SS survive the map now with a lot of ASW enemy ships now.
2-2 for fast transport dailies. I'm still missing place to hunt CV before World 3/4 quest unlock. Previously I run with 5-5 to farm CV + try clear the map. I guess I'll permanently shift the map to 6-5 now, but the CV count there aren't that much.

I'll remove the SS fleet in the preset as they aren't that useful now.

Someone recommended 2-1 with 6 subs. Basically clear the World 2 daily as well. It sucks, but what can you do? lol

2-1 for weekly cv or w2 daily
2-2 for transport + mindless baux farm
3-3 for w3 weekly
4-2 for w4 + 50 transport

imo loss of orel doesn't matter much other than shifting places around for dailies/weeklies. even oil/ammo loss from there can be safely gained somewhere else (3-2 for ammo, 1-3 for oil)
exp on the other hand.... rip 3-2A/5-4

7-1 is only for light ship leveling. there's still no replacement for 3-2A. 5-2 air node has high barrier of entry, and still don't cover wider ship type. not entirely sure about 5-5

edit: apparently you no longer have to clear 1-5 first before doing 1-6 every time eo reset monthly
edit 2: or is it a bug? lol

Thanks for sharing.
I really prepared for event today. Even planned a long trip later. Time to clean up some EO then...

Consider the typhoon and earthquake hitting them really hard. I would expect at least 4 weeks time for the players to complete.

e1-3 compo should be breeze for frontliners, since this month's comptiq already leaked

edit: e1 is a good place to farm. all those rare subs & de dropping there

I finished E1H already. I used 2CL, DD, 3 DE all with ASW and ASW support. Just started E2

Since these are no real operations, ship locking should not be a big deal as long as you don't touch the foreign ship.
Just two more days, it should be okay. I'll get a better guide the more I wait anyway :)
Gonna attempt all hard clear again this event. Hopefully I could. Hard rewards looks okayish for the MO so far.

Nice. Did you get some noteable drop? I saw some got very nice SS drop during the clearing run.

Zara dropped for me so I am pretty excited about that. I also finished E2 and I think I will hold off on E3 till the EO are out. I will prob farm for Pola and some of the submarines in the mean time.

nelson touch is... interesting. ignoring the weird cg, triple attack on different targets is really gamechanger

CG is indeed weird.
Hopefully the same mechanic won't be applied to abyssal as well or it won't be fun to play the game anymore.

oh don't you worry, knowing tanaka he will. the real question is when :')
someone likened this mechanic like arpeggio lasers back in 2013 during arpeggio collab, where both side had them.
also I somehow remembered that one guy thinking he can retain iona by scrapping every single ship before event ends... and it didn't end well obviously

That's bad news I guess. Multi taiha on one node is not fun lol.

Done E3H. Got multiple duplicate Saberkaze. No foreign ship dropped for me so far.
Used dupes ship a lot like ABKM, KTKM, Ooi and double dragon.

Phase 1 (LBAS 1 & 2 - fighter + 3 bombers to node M)

Phase 2 (LBAS 1 - full ASW to node I; LBAS 2 - full bomber node O)

Phase 3 (LBAS 1 - taitei + 3 fighters to node Q; LBAS 2 - full bomber node O, to node Q on last dance). Boss support used on last dance

You're clearing on medium? How's E4?
It wasnt that bad from I can remember. I didnt really have troubles with E4. Phase 1 of E5 was easy, but phase 2 was a pain and I had to drop down the difficulty. Finally finish phase 2 just now and will prob do the gimmicks stuff tomorrow. Also there are only ship locks on hard mode of E5.

Okay, good to know that E4H isn't that sanity draining. Did you use alternative route or just brute force the normal route? Too many shiplocks on E4 with all those TCF, STF and single fleet stuff.
Also, did you managed to get Gotland?
