I always did it, and then went hunting.

Anyway, be more aggressive  ! |
That's correct if you want to complete a patrol. However, the goal is to sink ships. Playing RSRD I seldom go to the patrol zone, I go to where the invasion forces and battles are. I've never gotten in trouble not doing patrols as long as I sink ships. Some say you should do patrols to move ahead, but I've never seen that connection as I've always moved ahead, got new boats, ect..I have docked up to 4 times and ignored the patrol zone and never had a problem. Still, if it's close, I'll do it for the renown.
I guess most of us try Tokyo Harbor at least once...It depends on mods. Run TMO alone, don't go there in the daytime, planes will see you in the shallow water and TMO planes can hit you deep. Still, just your basic ships, nothing special. If you just want to rape ports, Truk or Osaka would be better choices.
