As promised 2 methods to Lvl captains

[Musket22]

Non-Scientific test to find out which is more efficient for generating CXP.

Week 1 - 1st Method: Use the Captain levelling up and use CXP (the 5%) as boost

1a. Time Frame: One week – Wednesday to Tuesday

1b. Ships:

IJN (6): CA ARP Takao, CA Atago, BB KII, CA Azuma B, BB Iwani B, CA Yoshino B

USN (5): DD Black B, BB Georgia, CL Austin, CA Salem, BB Wisconsin

KM (7): CL Muchen, CL Munchen B, CL Cross of Dorn, CL Mainz B, BB Brandenburg B, CA CLR Roon, BB Pommern B

RN (5): CL Belfast ‘43, DD Somme, BB Marlborough, CL Plymouth, BB Thunderer

*** No use of CXP Econamic Bonus ***

1c. Captains:

Japan        Toru Kawabe        20       75,914          6 ships

USN           Henry Bailey         14       50,037          5 ships

Germany    Otto Eberhard      19       79,513           7 ships

Britain        Oliver Howard      19       55,672           5 ships

1d. Accumulated Captain XP (excluding CXP from Crates)

Captain + 5% CXP: 261,136 + 97,239 CXP

Total Gained: 358,375

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Week 2 - 2nd Method: Use Lvl 21 captains to generate all CXP

2a. Time Frame same as 1a.                2b. Ships: Same as 1b.

2c. Captains: (The heavy hitters)

Japan      Isoroku Yamamoto*       21          86,931          6 ships

USN         William ‘Bull’ Halsey*    21          66,568          5 ships

Germany  Gunther Lutjens*          21          89,839          7 ships

Britain      Andrew Cunningham*  21           67,279          5 ships

2d. Accumulated Captain XP (excluding CXP from Crates)  Total Gained: 318,390 CXP

3. Week to week Comparison

Week 1          261,136 + 97,239 = 358,375

Week 2         318,390                = 318,390

4. Over the 2 weeks, I also gained CXP from daily, ‘Black’ & Event Pass crates.

Week 1 - 157,000 CXP

Week 2 - 82,500 CXP

5. Total CXP from all sources over 2 weeks: 575,740

6. Thoughts?

[Musket22]

I did notice that some of my ship selections weren't the optimal ones.

By that I mean that their 'backed-in' CXP bonus was 65% rather than than 115%.

This too shall change 🙂
