start sending your main fleet to unlock further maps. this is how i trained my main fleet until i cleared 5-4. your ships should level up considerably fast too while clearing event maps. my mutsu shoots up from 68 to 80 when i started using her for the event.

if u hate seeing your bauxite going down too fast, avoid using too many bombers. if you need more than 1 bombers put them in the 2 smallest slots. fill the rest with your best fighters. and you need to stock up more on steel (assuming 38k is your steel), because higher lvled CVs and BBs costs alot of steel for repairs

no matter how u hate pvps, start doing them. they worth way more EXP than sortie maps while not needing repairs. the trick is to only fight opponents with 1st and 2nd ships average lvl more than 30. else, wait for a while until they decided to change their fleets. never try getting AS against fleets with 2 or more CVs. they are bauxite black holes. and make sure to bring at least equal amount of BBs to get fair firepower tradeoff, you will just lose miserably if you try fighting yamato and kongo-class kai nis with only CAs and DDs
