Line 184: − + − + − + − + − + + + + + − + − *{{ShipLink|Atlanta}}: All 3 DD can [[TCI]] (works better for 4-slot DD and [[Shigure|Shigure Kai Ni/San]] with a [[RE]], as they can keep their strong OASW setup on top of it). − *{{ShipLink|Maya Kai Ni}}: Same idea as above, but Maya can bring {{Night Recon}} [[Night Recon]] to increase night accuracy for the whole fleet. − *DD such as {{ShipLink|Hatsuzuki Kai Ni}} or {{ShipLink|Fletcher}}: The CL can be {{ShipLink|Yahagi Kai Ni B}} for opening torpedo, or CA(V) like {{ShipLink|Mogami Kai Ni Toku}} for {{Night SPB}} [[Night Cut-In|Night Zuiun Cut-In]]. − {{ShipLink|Hyuuga Kai Ni}} {{color|red|'''should not have the usual 2 gun setup'''}} as it does not work well there, reducing the clear rate. It is better to give her 2 [[fighter]]s to carry air power, along with 3 other equipment that can deal with submarines as mentioned above.<br>

*A "strong OASW" is defined as a setup utilizing [[ASW Synergy]] ([[Small Sonar]] + [[Depth Charge]]). For {{ShipLink|Hyuuga Kai Ni}}, [[Helicopter]] + [[E16A|Zuiun (Kai Ni)]] + [[Sonar]] will also work.

*It is important to keep in mind that most retreats here are due to submarines. Especially at '''HQ 120''' where 7-4 is mutated into its last scaling stage, node J always has 3 {{Enemy/Link|Submarine So-Class Flagship|text=So-Class Flagship}}, the boss gains more armor, and the boss node in LD always has a So-Class Flagship as well, making farming more difficult if lacking enough strong OASW.
*It is important to keep in mind that most retreats here are due to submarines. Especially at '''HQ 120''' where 7-4 is mutated into its last scaling stage, changing the enemy patterns and stats such as below:
**Node J always has 3 {{Enemy/Link|Submarine So-Class Flagship|text=So-Class Flagship}}
**The boss gains more armor
**The boss node in LD always has a So-Class Flagship
Those above changes will make farming more difficult if lacking enough strong OASW. <br>
[[CVE]] should be either Zuihou or Ryuuhou for OASW. While not as strong as the strong OASW setup above, they can still sink some weaker submarines on the way.<br>

An [[AACI]] is recommended to disable the boss and pass node {{MapRoute|E|pink}} on the way. There are a few compositions to pick from depending on who is on AACI duty (the clear rates generally do not differ much from one another).
An [[AACI]] DD is recommended (usually {{ShipLink|Hatsuzuki Kai Ni}}) to disable the boss and pass node {{MapRoute|E|pink}} on the way.
All DE have '''damage, accuracy, and evasion bonuses''' here, so they can be a good option to bring along. One of them can be used as flagship to get as much EXP as possible, making this map '''one of the best options to grind them'''.<br>
