Depending on your available ships, Spring E5 was actually easier than E4. It was a much simpler brute force map, the caveat being that you can't pass if you don't have brute force ships. In general event maps have had E1-E3 be the same difficulty across all events and around the difficulty level of World 3 maps. E4 is usually hell due to either complicated rules that force you to use ships you don't normally use or special conditions (such as night battle followed by day battle boss) that force you to deploy underoptimized fleets that have trouble finishing off the map. E5 is usually just a simple brute force map with tanky bosses and sub-bosses. The "4BB fleet of doom" strategy usually works perfectly well for E5.
