Some might swear on the effectiveness of Searchlight on flagship, but in my case it did more harm than good and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one.

For the first 4 kills, the CLT-based setup is pretty effective (I ran 3CLT 2DD 1CAV). Have one DD go for a full ASW loadout and one of the CLTs go for midget sub + ASW so that you can afford to use Line Ahead at the boss node and still kill the sub. No sparkling done and I went through with this with 7 runs.

For my final kill I just did the standard heavier setup of 2FBB 2CA(V) 2DD with the loadout on the right, all sparkled.
