@Kitahara

In fact, when I am still lower level admiral, I used the same formation that OP is using because I only had Mogami at that time and not enough radar sets (for the super light fleet formation) to take the north route. It was not until the 2014 summer events that I got Suzuya, Kumano and Mikuma (lucky me) to drop, then I switched exclusively to the north route.

Whenever you face Rus and Tas, you are praying them to miss. This is a problem why many players are struggling with E-2 this event. I cleared E-2 and did some 6-2 by going around the Ru node just as I do with 2-5. Of course there are other risks doing that for E-2/6-2; you are gonna get Wo-bombed like s**t at the boss node, which would never happen in 2-5. I just prefer not to spend tons of buckets and resources to patch my ships.
