Don't just jump on 'first OP on hard' choice. Without proper setup 'first OP on hard' can turn into literal hell. Always choose difficulty based on fleet strength, time, whether you want to farm, etc.

I said this because when you want to farm that OP, but you decided to clear it in hard for 1337 equipment and has some difficulty doing it, your farming won't be very efficient despite increased drop rate.

However, lately it seems submarine operation has become a mainstay for first OP. With enough ships capable of pre-empt anti-submarine attack and good equipment, it gets slightly better.
