Any tips for killing krakens faster?

I was wondering if anybody could manage to kill a kraken (3) by sending only one attack.

So far, I'monly able to kill a kraken (3) with three attacks, and in the guild I'm part of, the same is happening. They always need 3 attaks with the scout ships to kill a kraken.

I will really appreciate if anybody have tips to shar on how to kill these creatures faster, speacially the ones at higher levels, since I'm about to move to level 7.

Also, does the number on the right of their names mean the number of attacks needed to defeat them?

Thanks in advance for all the tips.

I can explain you, why it isn't possible.

No matter wether NPC or player, any combatant in a fight can only lose up to 66% of their fleet or groundtroops. Therfor you can never kill a kraken in one hit except he has 2 or less tentacles left.

And what do the numbers on the side of their names mean? At first I thought it was the number of attacks needed to kill it.

You mean "Kraken(10)" ? It is their strength level.

Thats only the Level of the kraken.
The higher this Number is, the more tentacles (are they called "tentacles" in english Version? Never looked that up) they have, which must be destroyed to kill them.

EDIT
3 minutes for writing this post? Uh I think I have to grow faster^^

Yes, I meant that number, like "kraken (3)", "kraken (6)", etc. And do stronger krakens have more resources (food) to be looted?

Yes, stronger krakens carry more food. Pay attention that they need to first feed themselve to full capacity before you kill them. Explanation about that should be in the ingame faq.

@Jodli Harder better faster stronger :D

I started using 20 scout ships fleet. And troops is only for the ground, useless for looting a kraken, so, use only the scouts ships on it.

How many ships to use while attack krakens?

Does anybody have the a sort of list of how many ships, and which ships, should be used to attack each kraken (x), in order not to loose troops?

For the kraken (3), I know that 20 scout ships can kill in 3 attacks, and you don't loose ships.
For the Kraken (6), I know that 120 scout ships or 60 longships have the same effect.
For the kraken (8), I was able to get the same effect using 90 longships.
But for the kraken (10), I'm loosing lots of ships, and still could not find the right number of ships to send in the attack.

And for the rest of the krakens? How many ships should I be using to avoid loosing them?

Once you weaken a kraken, is it possible to attack it with no losses with fewer ships?

Destroying tentacles of course does decrease the number of sheeps needed to conquer the last few since the destroyed tentacles cannot harm your ships anymore :) (Kraken with less tentacles = weaker)
