Item Card SauryItem Card Sardine

Saury (Mackerel, 秋刀魚, さんま, Sanma) is an item that can be obtained during Saury seasonal mini-events (based on Pacific saury festival). It is obtainable as a map drop, can be exchanged for various items, and is required for completing the events' limited quests. The events usually happen in October - November:

How to Obtain[]

Known drop conditions:

  • Can be obtained only from specific map nodes. A notification will appear on a drop (see the gallery above).
  • Can drop only on A and S ranks, with a higher drop rate for S ranks.
  • Can drop even when you have no ship slots left.
  • Doesn't prevent normal ship drops. Also can drop without a ship drop.
  • You can't have more than 99 fishes at the same time during the event.

The following mechanics are likely to affect Saury drop rates.[1]

  • Overfishing there is a limited number of fish per map node per specific time frame, if fishes stops dropping, you are encouraged to switch to a different node [2]
  • Coastal Defense Ships can be used to increase the drop rates.[citation needed]
  • Special equipment can be used to increase the drops rates.
    • Combo effects from equipping different pieces of special equipment on one ship may exist, e.g., Searchlight + Sonar + Skilled Lookouts + Type 0 Recon Seaplane on one ship.
    • An official tweet hinted that using DepthCharge Depth Charges will cause overfishing more quickly.

  1. The existence of overfishing and special equipment mechanics was confirmed in official tweets (TIPS-3, TIPS-4, and TIPS-5). The existence of the overfishing mechanic is easily noticeable (however, it's not so clear if there are separate limits for nodes, maps, worlds and how they interact). There is less certainty about special equipment and their effects, including combos, mostly it's based on tweet interpretations:
    • 海を照らす光源 - Searchlights
    • 魚群探知を支援できる装備 - Sonars
    • 少し乱暴な手法で海の中にどかーん! - Depth Charges
    • もっとスマートに暗闇でも魚群を捉える熟練のあの方々の活用 - Skilled Lookouts
    In the November 2017 edition of the Comptiq magazine it was announced that Seaplanes such as the Type 0 Reconnaissance Seaplane and Zuiun alongside the Type 2 Large Flying Boat and the Ka Type Observation Autogyro increase Saury drop rates. It was also announced that Sonars such as the Type 3 Active Sonar and the newly implemented ASDIC series are more effective for fishing.
