Farming Setup for E1
My current farming setup fo E1. Decided to post mine because there doesn't seem to be dedicated guides. It's not the most efficient, but it does a good job for me at the moment. Note that this guide assumes u have played a decent period of time and have  sufficiently  levelled OASW ships. It is still possible to farm without OASW ships, but is significantly harder):

Approximately 2-4 dedicated  OASW ships, 1 AACI DD (For node D), 1-2 Wildcards (preferably equipped with DA setups)



Some other points to take into account

 * Node B is the most "dangerous" node on the map. It is recommended that both LBAS strikes target node B, equipped with LBAS bombers. It should hopefully take out the dds and leave you to kill the Ri-class in the day.
 * The most difficult part of E1 is balancing your fleet's ASW with shelling dmg, as you need to survive both the Ri-class's deadly torpedoes whilst being able to still sink Submarine Hime. This is why you equip non-asw ships with DA setups to help eliminate the threat on Node B
 * Note that a CVL can also be substituted in and equipped with a Saiun to prevent Red T on node I. Equipping it with Autogyro's + Blue bomber could help boost your fleet's ASW abilities. Another option is to bring a CV along equipped with Reppuu, Ryuusei and Saiun to help wipe out Node B (though i personally haven't tried this). This method will cost bauxite, and you must ensure you have AS/+ on node D to lower bauxite losses
 * You could bring a sub along to tank DD/CL damage, but this is mostly irrelevant considering they barely scratch your fleet. Better to have more ASW.
 * Bringing a CT along is a great idea against shiplock. Decently levelled CT's should easily reach ASW 100 with their four slots
