Boss Debuff: S-rank node D - H - I - C once each. Can all be done in separate runs. Debuff is PERMANENT.
Debuff process can also be done in Easy mode and won't reset even if you go into Medium/Hard after.
Branching Rules:
1. 2~3 CLT allowed in Fleet if you have Kongou + Haruna and 2 or less CV(B) in 1st Fleet.
2. Bismarck cannot be in 2nd Fleet unless 1st Fleet has Kongou + Haruna together.
3. Having Iowa and/or Haruna in 2nd fleet enables L to M as long as you do not have Bismarck or 2-3 CLT in fleet.
4. Having Hayasui or Submarine in 2nd Fleet forces L to N no matter what.
FAQ:
1. Why send all LBAS to Node I?
This is because Boss is very far away, where you will require 9+ Range for a single LBAS to reach the Boss node. There are also 2 separate Air Raids which may eradicate your LBAS while you are en-route to the Boss node. Also, node I has 2x Installation enemies but you don't really have an option to bring Anti-Installation equipment as it will affect your performance in Boss node.
Node I's enemies can be sunk quite easily from LBAS alone.
2. Does Debuff reset if I do the Debuff in Easy mode then switch to Hard mode?
This is a frequent question that a lot of players have been asking.
Currently it is unconfirmed whether switching difficulties will reset debuff. However getting S-Rank in node D - H - I - C are not difficult even in Hard mode.
3. I heard the debuff mechanism in E-3 can affect E-4. Is it true?
This is an unconfirmed information and is pending further tests by players.
4. Is Hayasui needed in this map? My fleet has 0% fuel and is keep getting hit at boss.
Hayasui is completely optional. Unlike Spring 2016 Event, she is not needed in this one all that much. Also, Hayasui needs to be in the 1st fleet to be used this time due to branching rules.
