World 13 hard

[tidal frost]

13-2 boss node has way more planes than i can shoot down

i need a better boss fleet to shoot down all the planes

[polar pulsar]

How many minutes does the boss battle last or when do you lose?

[tidal frost]

i usually get to shokaku but my flagship is already too low and usually dies withing 10 sec of shokaku spawning

[polar pulsar]

Show the gear you're using

And Bisz should be flag for a free 18% damage from Plymouth

[tidal frost]

i should probably add fighters

[polar pulsar]

Some intercepting planes would be nice

Fighters and wyverns

[tidal frost]

yeah i had them setup for taihou on normal 13-4

[polar pulsar]

That's not a good setup for taihou either. The converging TBs usually whiff taihou

[tidal frost]

i run implacable with them but i can't run triple carrier on hard

[polar pulsar]

After changing to fighters and wyvern, look at the slower one between Shinano and haku and change her beacon to catapult or manjuu

So that they strike at staggered times

[polar pulsar]

And this and try again. With circular formation

[tidal frost]

im assuming stagger to lessen the dead time between airstrikes right

[polar pulsar]

To clear waves faster

Synced strikes hit water when the enemies are dead

Don't hate the water like some certain country firing missiles into the ocean

[tidal frost]

lol

[polar pulsar]

Also I guess staggered strikes hit more enemy planes too

[tidal frost]

i never figured how carrier aa works

is it during airstrike or passive

[polar pulsar]

Both

Only non-rocket fighters , wyvern, breguet, some seaplanes , and idk, do passive interception

[tidal frost]

also im realizing i don't kill junyou and hiyou fast enough when i run out of ammo and my backline is low

also thanks for helping me

[polar pulsar]

It is indeed difficult to kill them quickly, but you should be able to tank their planes with sandy and three carriers with interception
