The reason why iam asking is, because it will be my first event and iam not sure what is more usefull.

Abukuma - hands down...in fact, why didn't you BP her sooner?

I will be clear, I don't always subscribe to the meta on things, BUT Abukuma has a lot of benefits going for her:

- She is a CL, but can equip a Midgit Sub; this is important as those things can hit like a freight train, and you can't always bring CLT's to the party. In this regard, she acts like a CLT, which can be VERY beneficial

- She can equip Daihatsu and Tanks, which are useful for fighting installation-type enemes and can help on TP-related maps

- Her stock equipment is a Daihatsu, which, as a thing provides bonuses on Expeditions and helps depleate TP-Guages on the maps where that's required. Thx for the fast reply, i do know exactly what Abukuma does, my question was directed wich of the 3 options is the most usefull in an large scale event, given the time the event starts i will have probably collected another blueprint.

As conclusion i guess i will do her, which takes me to the last choice between the second CVB, or the 4th CAV. There is another option you haven't considered. You might want to wait until the event start. You can make decision depending on the event situation which would benefit your fleet the most. Since BP is very rare item, you don't want to use the BP in a wasteful way which you might kick yourself when you start participating the event.
