List of ships requiring Blueprints for remodeling

The priority score is rated on the following points:

  • What are the advantages you get in return for using the blueprint? Is she actually strong, do you get access to strong equipment, or is it both?
  • How often can she be used? If she cannot be used in most maps, can she make a huge impact in maps where she can be used?
  • Does her remodel come with disadvantages?

Keep in mind that the priorities might change depending on how far you are, what kind of ships you have available and what your current needs are, so keep the priorities only as rough guidelines. In case of times where the events are starting soon, consider saving your blueprint until you know what you actually need during the event.

While getting high priority ships are encouraged, do not recklessly pursue them in a way which will affect your fleet negatively and plan things out before committing yourself to something.

Note: The priority is listed from top to bottom, including those that are placed in the same category (e.g. SuzuyaSuzuya Kai Ni is ranked higher than YuraYura Kai Ni). However, the prioritization of ships in the same category is of less importance and you are free to disregard it and treat them all as equal priority if you wish.
