Fall 2015 Event/E-5

Information
To enter the map, you need to have a CL flagship plus min. one DD, and at most CL + 4 DD + X. X can only be CA, CAV, CT, CLT, CL or DD. (Report needed: do 2CA work?)

Branching rules

 * Sendai, Kawakaze, Shigure, 1 CLT, 2 DD
 * This is the Historical Setup
 * A C G J K L N
 * Only Shigure
 * A C F G J K L N
 * Only Sendai and Shigure OR Shigure and Kawakaze
 * A C E H J K L N
 * LoS check preboss when the gauge becomes red
 * 15 eLoS is enough for hard mode (6-8 eLoS seems also enough, even less for pre-final runs)

AS Values

 * Anything above zero will result in Air Supremacy.

Fleet composition

 * For the Historical Setup branching at A C G J K L N, the CLT can be replaced with CAV
 * Equip seaplane for LoS boost
 * Equip sanshiki for bonus against PT imp
 * Equip CA 20.3(2) or similar strong variants

Debuffing/Weakening
Defeating a certain amount of PT Imp Packs within the Map will weaken the Boss: Destroyer Water Demon. During TP-Bar Depletion Stage: During Boss HP Bar Depletion Stage: Other Notes to take on Debuffing:
 * The boss' voice and appearance changes after the weakening
 * Sinking at least 30 PT Imp Packs total within the Map in node H, J, or L will weaken the Boss.
 * Sinking at least 15 PT Imp Packs total within the Map in node H, J, or L will weaken the Boss.
 * Node H is the fastest and the most recommended node to defeat several PT Imp Packs easily.
 * Recommended to use Sendai and Shigure in the fleet at least to go A C E H and then retreat.
 * The Debuffs between the TP-Bar and Boss HP Bar are SEPARATE.
 * If you have debuffed the boss during the TP-Bar stage, this will RESET once you enter the Boss HP Bar Depletion stage.
 * You must sink the PT Imp Packs during each stage separately for the debuff to take effect again.
 * Always remember generally the Debuff will reset at 5:00 AM JST.

TP Bar Depleting

 * It is recommended to bring a CAV as they can equip Drum Canisters.
 * Although not required, you may opt to try bringing at least 3 to 4 Drum Canisters to quickly deplete the TP Bar Gauge.
 * LoS requirement does not apply during TP bar depletion, it only apply starting from the appearance of boss gauge.
 * TP gauge does not reset

Nodes

 * I, J and L are Yasen nodes
 * H, J, and L have Enemy patterns that can include PT Imp Packs.

General

 * For those having trouble sinking PT Imp Pack, you can use:
 * Type 3 Shell (if using a CA or other ships that can carry it)
 * 12cm 30-tube Rocket Launcher on DDs
 * Secondary guns (yellow) on your CL(T)
 * You may choose to use Support Expedition for the Boss Node to get S Rank Victories more consistently.
 * Use of Aerial Support Expedition is viable for the Boss Node as other than the Boss, it doesn't have much heavy ships. (Note: does not seem to be as effective as before, after the Nov20 fix)
 * A recommended support fleet is 4cvls+2dds, bring 2 to 3 blue planes on cvls since damage of Aerial Support is different from Support shelling. And fulfill the rest of the slots with radars, be mindful that accuracy bonus for anti-air radar is halved for support expedition.
 * For more information about Aerial support damage calculation, see http://wikiwiki.jp/kancolle/?%BB%D9%B1%E7%B4%CF%C2%E2 (Japanese).
