I've been attempting to farm E2 for a few ships I'm missing (Asashimo, Asagumo, Noshiro, Hatsukaze) but really finding getting S-rank clears on the E2 boss on hard to be really expensive thanks to all that air power she has. Anyone have any tips for making this less painful? I've had most success so far with 2BB,2CVL,2CV but I'm struggling to figure out how to get Air Superiority on the boss without gimping everyone's ability to attack, plus the fact that 4/6 ships will stop doing anything once they're damaged a bit and they're useless in night battle so it's a bit touch & go.

I tried a few other configurations but running DDs wasn't working at all, especially since I only have the one 10cm+FD gun so can only do one AACI. Shigure tries her best but even with AACI activating she might as well be trying to hold back the tide. Unfortunately also I didn't put anywhere near enough work into my lighter ships since I started playing, so I only have 2DDs above 70 and one more at 62, and none of my CVLs have made it to 60 yet either. Something to work on post-event.

Is it maybe worth me ditching farming this and trying another map for Asashimo at least?
