Shimakaze flag: Got!

Yup. He is a devil.

I hope her morale stats isn't low because of this...

Welcome to the Black Base, Shimakaze.

3-2-1 grinding. Morale? What's that? *continues to power level girls at 0 morale*

Didn't work with Suzuya, and she had much more to squish...

You are nothing but eyecandy, don't get ahead of yourself.

I did that on my early days, and stopped doing that right away the moment I see my steel dropping sharply.

I really wonder how the some of the more err... rougher girls (Namely Murakumo, Maya, Akebono, etc.) will react to this admiral...

"Oh, you have guts. I like that. Surely that spirit will last you 10 laps through 3-2!"

Maya might just like him. Murakumo and Akebono... depends on how tsundere the artist wants to portray them, but they'd probably warm up to him, although they wouldn't admit it.

Wait, how? Submarines use like 1 or 2 steel for a repair. If anything, you'd run out of Fuel and Ammo faster for crazy power leveling before Steel.

w/ low morale, it's harder to sink enemy ships, which gives a higher chance of them surviving. Which means they can torp the other ships you have...and since they're at 0 morale, their avoid is nonexistent. = steel burn

Are you messing up your equips? Even at 0 morale, my girls are still killing the 3-2-1 node beofre any torpedo phase even happens.

I literally power grinded my Kirishima from level 50 to level 85 in like 1 hour of pure 3-2-1 grinding probably only using like 100 steel for submarine repair. Think I used like 15,000 ammo and fuel, but that was the price I was willing to pay and those 2 are easy to stockpile.

Subs are lies in my early game. After I finally got 3 of them, I can finally grind pretty efficiently with their low cost. But it's still not a good thing if you're in my shoes. I tend to sparkle my CLs and DDs for expeditions, but they got hit pretty badly sometimes, even at their higher levels. Having around 10 DDs/CLs lining up for repairs is like a daily routine for me.

And that's at normal morale. In 0 morale, I went off too far and had to spent steel worth of a couple of BBs just to fix those heavily damaged DDs. I guess I'm just not that compatible with the RNG.

THat's because you use a heavy fleet. I myself level 3 girls at the same time and lately, it's 4. Always 1 sub, 1 carrier, 1 battleship, the others are to be depended on needs. And I can't afford power grinding because I have the worst luck I have ever known of. Like this, full morale, Kaga, Nagato, both miss a mere Ha destroyer. Happened like that for 4 rounds straight until I change composition to Kaga and Fusou. Even 3-2-1 still requires luck man, still requires.

What you are saying just doesn't make sense to me. I must know what equips you are using cause luck shouldn't be a factor at all, it's all numbers.

As long as your flagship gets constant MVP, you are only losing 1 morale per run. Go for 3 runs in 1-1, and you are at 85 morale to start. 1 submarine, and then 4 carriers/light carriers. 2 blue planes each, 2 yellow guns each. Keep rotating submarines. You should be fine for hardcore 3-2-1 grinding. I did it with more than just Kirishima, but she's just an example I used.

If you are trying to level more than 1 girl at a time, then Submarine killing at 4-3 should be what you want. 3-2-1 grinding for Battleships at Heavy Cruisers is king.

Your Carriers and Submarines should be leveling naturally, there is no need to every "grind" them.
