First gratz on the progress so far. You still have quite a lot of time on your hand, (not like me lol) So keep working on it.

Farming prinz Eugen it is better to use CV fleet, while farming for Graf Zep / Clearing map it is best to do BB fleet.

If you want to reduce armor, BB fleet can do both point J and M at same time (in one go)

However farming using CV fleet requires pathing lead, you have two choices, Both training CL, (which i m still missing one) or Akitishumia. I am going to assume Akitishiuma (not sure if you have her)

Below is for CV fleet farming Prinz eugen in E4 normal: Point M

Team 1: Akitishiuma (double 15.5 cm yellow + FCF) 2 CV 1 CVL (combined air power of 380+ with Saiun, rest fill with tropedo bombers). 1 BB (double cannon + 91 AP shell + plane) + Maryuu (just to tank the point M boss hit)

team 2: Ideally Abukuma (double yellow + midget sub) if not. just any CL. Ooyodo is fine I use AA CI on her. SO 90mm + 25cm conceentrated ( i dont think this is atucally needed) + air radar + main cannon. (90mm is off cannon which enable her to hit PT group which is a nightnamre)

+ CA (double cannon +plane + type 3 shell) + CLT (double yellow cannon + midget sub) + 2 DD (equip AA CI on both) + FBB (same as CA)

This allows multiple Yellow / green cannon equipped ships to clear PT group which is a pain in the ass if left alive (most likley giving you mulitple taiho and A (no S no Prinz Eugen)

Also team 2 has 2 Type 3 shell loadeda ship meaning much safer chance to clear the boss (and get S)

This is what I optimized to use. And I highly recommended it.

For Graf Zep I suggest BB fleet:

First team 1CL + 3BB + 2CVL + maya (AA and carry FCF on flagship, or you can throw the E3 new reard ship on flagship)

Team 2 1CL 2DD 3CLT (replace 1 CLT with a DD if you dont have 3)

Since farming for Zep is easy, you can use wahtever ships you want, no shiplock worries.

Pretty much alll standard loadout, CVL secure air (superioty is ok, you dont need AS+, because only limited plane numbers) + saiun + a few tropedo bombers. BB typical double cannon plane 91 ap shell to clear WO kai or BB hime at boss node.

Rest all ASW gear to kill the boss.

CLT midget sub + ASW gear. (you can balance one with double cannon if the boss node, BB hime live to night time, it is more fine balancing on your own )

Feel free to ask aything, best of luck.
