Introduction [ITDN]:

Not every stage will be done on Hard Mode.

Welcome to my guide for the 2015 Summer Event. This is more of a self-guide, if anything, as I've yet to complete the event. It is for those who have an adequate amount of ships required for this event with knowledge of how shiplocking and combined fleet mechanics work. If you are a relatively new admiral seeking guides to get far into the event, you may or may not find this guide useful. I'm sorry if don't elaborate on the naunces of why I do this and that; please point out on what you find confusing and I will try to explain further onto why.

Do take note that because this is a limited time event, I may not be able to complete this guide. Albeit because writing this guide takes too much of my time away from the event and studies.

Theory Crafting [TCNG]:

As noted in italics above, not every stage will be done on Hard Mode. In fact, all stages except E-4 can be done on Medium Mode if admiral chooses to. The reason why certain stages will be done on Easy Mode is because of the rewards given. Stage E-4 in particular hands out shoddy rewards that I consider to not be worth challenging with Shiplocking in mind. I do not know of how useful the equipment Overseas Supplies and Combat Rations will be, but considering how they are consumables and how they can be purchased with real cash, I would think the more conservative admirals wouldn't bat an eye of their importance.

So with that out of the way, why do I stress out on Stage E-4 being done on Easy Mode? Stage E-4 is the third of the four total shiplocking of this event. By this point, you are already thinking "It's Easy Mode, it doesn't matter who I send out." On the contrary, it still does. If you send out a shipgirl to Stage E-4 without having her done any of the earlier stages, you have consequently prevented her from being used in later Stages whom you may have used. So before you send your girls out on E-4, have them enter E-3 first so they can be used for E-6 and E-7 later on.

Personally, I am going to complete the following in these modes:
 * Stage E-1 (HARD)
 * Stage E-2 (MEDIUM)
 * Stage E-3 (HARD)
 * Stage E-4 (EASY)
 * Stage E-5 (MEDIUM)
 * Stage E-6 (HARD)
 * Stage E-7 (HARD)
