Warning: rant incoming

So... anyone has a ship-girl who, no matter how you like her, no matter how good her stats are, or no matter how many people recommend her, she just can't live up that expectation?

Well, I have one. Her name is Shigure.

She is level 89 in my fleet, kai-ni'd and maxed out on modernization stats and all... and yet, she never seem to work out. In a total of three events I did this year (Spring, Summer, Fall 2015, respectively), she always appear to be a weak link, being the first to get chuuha'd in preboss nodes and the first to get taiha'd in boss node most of the time (mind you, there were other DDs alongside her) thus disabling her in night battles. Whether it was in the flagship, middle, or dead last, her propensity of getting hit to half-naked is disheartening. There was even a point that when I saw torpedo heading to her in day battle I felt like my run had ended. Even the relatively less celebrated DDs like Shirayuki didn't get hit as much as she did.

This event's E-3 medium was the last straw. Shigure again underperformed. Even Yukikaze, whom I just got a week ago and pushed to E-2 medium at level 33 did much better (she was already lv 50 when I pushed to E-3). After her third consecutive instant taiha in C node (and being the ONLY one damaged at that), I ordered RTB, douse her with instant repair, stripped her of her combat equipment, and sent her to expedition. Hatsushima kai ni was chosen to replace her, and I made it past E-3 medium with much less hassle.

Expedition will be where Shigure will spend the rest of her career. She will never again be included in my event fleet, unless when she is required for navigation - and even that is a big if. Because, seriously, despite her luck stat, she has jinxed my event runs way too many times. /rant
