I'm a little confused about why people have any trouble with the E-4 boss. I killed her 10/10 times when clearing, then proceeded to go back and grind for Akitsumaru where I killed her every single time again, and that's in her final form. And that's without even sparkling, using support fleets, or any of that nonsense. I've lost count of how many times I've killed her, and in my opinion she was actually the easiest boss to kill in this entire event.

The thing is, her escorts are really weak. And since torpedos won't target her, the torpedo round from the second fleet day battle would completely finish them off about 90% of the time. Which meant that the first fleet shelling was 100% concentrated on the hime. She would usually be down to about 1/3 of her health before even entering night battle. Which was enough to be finished off by a single CA sanshiki double attack. But I had two CAs waiting just in case. Not once did she survive the second. Not once did my DDs even had to do anything at night.

But I don't feel like I'm actually doing anything special. She's just really easy. And don't tell me that I was lucky, because like I said I went back to grind E-4. I have too much data for it to be a statistical fluke.
