Board Thread:Fleet's Prepared-ness/@comment-31118942-20170330193730/@comment-30750174-20170330200939

First of all lets deal with your resource issues. For starters please refer to Usagi sensei's preparation guides to the events and you'll find lots of informative tips to help you out including which expedition is the best.

As for your fleet...well there are a lot to be said but a good summarization is not good. However we all have to start somewhere, so let's go down the list:

DD: Surpisingly (pleasantly surprise) good, you have the key DD's like Poi, Shigure, and Ayanami at a good level, though Yukikaze needs to catch up. However you lack DD that specialize in transport (such as Kawakaze), ASW (Asashio), and AA (No duckies so Fubuki or Satsuki). Keep that in mind so you will know what ships you need in the event.

CL: Well...it could be worse I suppose. You got sendai up in level so that's good; what's not good is that she's your only well-leveled CL. Try to get Isuzu up to Kai ni as soon as you can since her OASW will prove invaluable in the future. Since you have a lot on your plate right now, try to get kuma to kai since her stats is very good even at just kai (nagara too). You can try to get Jintsuu or abukuma to kai ni as well, but that'll take some time (and a blue print for abukuma).

CLT: Get them to kai ni...yea...that's it (it will make boss clearing a lot less frustrating)

CA: You are hurting in this area. You really need to have some high level CA in your fleet since they are heavily used in combine fleets (STF namely). The major CA you need to get up in level is Maya (her god-like AACI) and the Myoukou class (great stats all around). In general try to get Maya to kai ni ASAP, and try to kai at least two Myoukou class (namely Myoukou and Haguro); Atago and Takao are also a temporary alternative.Again, do not neglect your CA or it will come back and bite you.

CAV: Suzuya is kinda lonely in there...I hope you will have Kumano join her soon and try to get Mogami as well. Other than that, you can't do much since both Tone and Chikuma requires high level and a blue print to obtain Kai ni, and you have lots of things to work on before that.

CVL: Levels are part of the concern, but another thing is the type. For a while now the devs love to throw fast fleet requirement at us during events, so it is also important to level up fast CVL such as Ryuujou, Zuihou, Chitose, and Chiyoda. Of course not ruling out Junyou since she's one of the best CVL we can have, though she has a high kai ni level. In general, level up Zuihou for now and try to get Chitose/Chiyoda to kai (or kai ni if you can). You can try to level up Ryuujou as well, though her plane slots is a bit unstable.

FBB/BB: More levels, but not a huge priority in comparison with your other department.

CV: Fine for the most part, but try to get Hiryuu, Akagi, and Zuizui caught up to your other CV (50+ is the target).

SS: Not really something you need to worry about, but do send them out to the Orel sea for resource collection and clearing dailies/weeklies for even more resources.

Equipments: Well you already know what you're lacking so I won't take too much time telling you what to do. But yea, more planes, more shells (both AP and type 3), radar shouldn't be quite the issue once you start to kai/kai ni your ships.

Overall, a lot of work needs to be done, but take your time since there is still some time before the event starts. Start stockpiling, do PVP for leveling, and try to finish some dailies/weekies. Good luck out there!
