Boss node always contains a transport ship to hunt so this map can be a great way to do {{color|green|'''weekly transport'''}}. The tradeoff is you can't really spam it much due to the high morale draining rate, so either you have to wait for a while to do it again or prepare a lot of this kind of fleet to do transport kill.

When using such DE, you don't need to bucket them. Just repair them in the dock and swap them for another DEs if they are damaged. Assuming '''DE lv is less than 99, she would always have less than an hour of repairing'''. This helps reduce bucket usage<ref name="44dock"/>.
CVL with slot equals or less than 17 is preferred as they can't be shot down under AS+ fighter phase.

{{color|red|'''However, the map MUST BE LOCKED in the FINAL FORM to make enemy DDs disappear at the boss node, which will lock you out of {{ShipLink|Maruyu}} farming}}'''. But on the bright side, without enemy DD presence, the enemy ASWs are very weak, where they have little to no chance to sink your {{Taiha}} non-flagship submarine, so you can advance after node H with {{Taiha}} non-flagship submarine and no harm will be done to them.
Keep in mind they have {{color|red|'''LITTLE TO NO CHANCE'''}} to sink your submarine, '''NOT''' impossible. There is an actually '''0.2%''' chance your submarine can die, or 2 out of 1000 runs.
For practical purposes, it is recommended that this comp/strategy is to be used in parallel with other ranking maps. As an example, one may run [[7-1]] as their main ranking map and occasionally sortie this composition as soon as the submarines are repaired, effectively making this strategy '''bucket-free'''.

If you managed to tweak the fleet setup to allow 3-slot CL or weaker DD with low luck while maintaining reasonable pass rate, {{color|green|'''this map can be one of the best options for leveling.

Theoretically, if the flagship always becomes MVP and you finished the boss battle, she can gain up to '''4500 EXP''' per runs.
==Managing quarterly sortie quests ranking points==
Keep in mind that due to being in a slot with very low capacity, the {{EquipmentLink|Prototype Night Zuiun (Attack Equipment)}} will {{color|red|'''almost always be completely shot down'''}}, thus losing the proficiency.
Credit to '''Savara, Ink20'''. This is one of the recommended strategies to shoot ranking cannons.
For some reasons, if you approach the boss node from south route once the map is cleared, {{Enemy/Link|Heavy Cruiser Ne-Class/Elite|text='''CA Ne-Class'''}} comp will never appear (Dev oversight or historical reference?)

Management of quarterly sortie quest ranking points ("Cannons"):
*Credit to '''Savara, Ink20'''. This is one of the recommended strategies to shoot ranking cannons.
As of current, there are 7 quarterly quests giving ranking points, known as cannon. A total of '''2050''' point can be obtained by completing all of those.
The following is the list of quarterly sortie quests. '''Bold''' indicates cannon quests
*At the beginning of the quarterly (unlocked by default): Bq3 and '''Bq13'''
*At the beginning of the quarterly (unlocked by default): Bq3 and '''Bq13'''
*Unlocked by weekly or monthly quests:
*Unlocked by weekly or monthly quests:
Also, remember that some requirement of these quests are shared with other quests and can be done together like 5-4 of Bq7 and Bq13 with 2CL, 3CA, 1CV or 1BBV (north or south route), 6-4 of Bq2 and Bq13, 6-3 of Bq2 and Bq4, etc.

This is a ranking supportive tool that calculates the amount of point you need to farm in order to reach a selected goal. It also includes features using ranking data from [https://senka.su senka.su] such as automatic score input, other players tracking system, and a filter for players potentially going for high ranking. For more information, please visit the site.

A database site that shows the top 500 record of every server, which can be helpful if you wanna check where you are at compared to the other players in the top 500.
==Ranking Plan==
*As of September 2020, many quarterly quests that give ranking points have been released. This has directly affected the ranking pressure across all servers as nowaday T500 may requires as much effort as Phase 1 T100. However, this can also be a good thing as if you do all those quarterlies and EO in one single month, you can stack up to 3000 points pretty easily. With a couple of more sortie, you are guaranteed to hit T500 as well. So my advice is '''If your life is very busy, just focus all quarterlies in one month and clear all the EO that month too, this way, at least you will get ranking rewards every 3 months'''

**Of course it is still possible to rank every month and spread out quarterlies to get enough point buff (i.e each month you only do 2-3 quarterlies for around 600 points), but will require much more points from daily sortie for T500 nowaday if you wanna catch up. Plan your schedule accordingly to your server if you spam daily. You are gonna need like 3700 for T500 (Hashi will need more obviously)
