Route: D-E-F-I-K-N-O

Here is my Easy Mode S Rank farming composition for Node O's Graf Zeppelin.

I've managed to S rank 10 out of the 10 encounters I've had with the boss so far.

Every battle that did not contain a submarine was fought using "第四警戒航行序列（戦闘隊形）

Cruising Formation 4 (battle)."

All battles against that contained submarines were fought using "第一警戒航行序列（対潜警戒）

Cruising Formation 1 (anti-sub)."

=Main Fleet=

=Escort Fleet=

While I do have Yamato and Musashi, I choose to stick with FBBs for the evasion. I have enough fire power to defeat the BB on the boss node.

Both Yuubari and Ooyodo are irreplacable for this setup as their four equipment slots are vital in damaging the boss for 64 to over 100.

Akizuki isn't loaded with ASW as I have more than enough to damage the boss. I have her Keep her anti-air setup to deal with incoming damage from planes on nodes F, I, and O. This lets the CLs who are specially equipped to deal with the boss stay healthy and as well as reduce the amount of resources needed for repairs.

Kaga's planes are all rank 7, which roughly gives me the air superiority of 176. This is enough to keep me afloat of getting air superiority against the boss in the case that fighter planes get taken down along the way. No Sauiun equipped because I need as much pre-emptive damage I can so that my FBBs can defeat the enemy before they damage the fleet.

Shigure is the 2nd mandatory DD of the escort fleet. She fills the role as clean up against the boss's BB with the help of her 50 luck Cut-In. If you are lacking in Katori, Shigure can instead be equipped to have ASW to finish off the Submarine Princess but for significantly lower damage compared to Yuubari and Ooyodo.

Prinz Eugen is the wild card of the fleet. Her role in the escort fleet is to act as clean up, much like Shigure but specialised in taking down the enemy BB as she cannot hit submarines. She can be replaced with anything.

Abukuma is not neccessary for this farming composition. Switch with Isuzu if more ASW is needed.

Ooi is there for the pre-emptive torpedo strikes. Enough said.
