Tips

  • You must sink the flagship at the Boss node 5 times to clear the map.
  • Clearing this map rewards 1 Medal and 200 ranking points. The boss HP bar is reset at the beginning of each month, allowing the rewards to be obtained again.
  • As with all World 5 maps, support expeditions 33 and 34 are applicable on this map
  • Node B is a submarine node.
  • Nodes G and M are Night Battle nodes.
  • A certain LoS is required to reach the boss node:
    • 81 LoS F33(Cn=2) is required to reach the boss node from P.
    • 67 LoS F33(Cn=2) is required to reach the boss node from O.
