Report from 14 sorties to E-4 final version <HQ lvl 100 with the fleets shown in the pictures to the right:

7 times to the northern route

0 retreats due to heavy damage

5 times compass threw the fleet to dead end node E

2 times managed to sink the boss

7 times to the southern route

0 retreats due to heavy damage

1 time compass threw the fleet to dead end node G (LOS check here, I never changed my equipments)

5 times managed to sink the boss (one time the Hime was left with 6 hp)

Total drops from the boss node: 2x Myoukou. 2x Souryuu, 2x Hamakaze, Kaga, Mogami

Summary of the results are that this fleet composition seems to have a high chance to spin one to the dead end node E, but also has the ability to sink the boss reliably. Also something not mentioned in the report is that DD and CL are unable to deal anything more than scratch damage to the MI Hime final form, even in night battle with Green T. Similar results in case with the first fleet, though I did not have any Sanshiki equipped in there and Haruna managed to take 120hp away from the Hime once with a single hit from day-time double attack (Green T).

The fact that the second fleet DD and CL are unable to do anything more than scratch damage, means that they are unable to sink the Hime even if she has only <10 hp left. Only CA(V) with Sanshiki seem to be able to sink the Hime reliably in night battle. Due to the lack of firepower the CL and DD have, it may be a good idea to put the CA in the last slots of the second fleet, so that the DD and CL are able to deal all the scratch damage they can get so that the CA can finish the Hime off more reliably. However, the negative side to this is that the CA have a higher chance to get damaged before they can sink the Hime.
