Player Opinion
Performance
Essentially a Tier VI Gremyashchy flying a Pan-Asian flag, Anshan is surprisingly more sluggish than her Russian counterpart but has better torpedoes. She's better suited for second line skirmishing than going all-in on close-range combat with other destroyers, as her turrets turn a bit slower than the American destroyers she will encounter and are easy to incapacitate or knock out if under heavy enemy fire. She can take a bit more punishment than her peers and her concealment is reasonable enough to perform torpedo attacks without getting detected.
Pros:
- Premium camouflage gives 100% bonus to Free experience which makes Anshan ideal for Free experience farming.
- More health than Gnevny.
- Torpedo speed of 60 knots with an 8.0 km range is slightly better than Gremyashchy’s 55 knots at 8.0 km and vastly outranges Gnevny’s choices.
- Capable of carrying out torpedo attacks without being detected by her target.
- Improved uniform AA defense in the form of four dual 37mm mounts.
Cons:
- HE shells have a 7% fire chance (2% worse than Gremyashchy and 1% worse than Podvoisky).
- Has exact same torpedo set up as Gremyashchy but with slower reload time, 0.8 rounds/min instead of 0.9 rounds/min.
- Essentially a Tier VI Gremyashchy with slightly worse overall offensive power, concealment, and flat out worse maneuverability.
- Turret traverse speed is not ideal for close-range fighting even with Expert Marksman.

Commander Skills
Skill points on Anshan commanders should be focused on maximizing the usefulness of her main battery and improving her survivability. The latter is best accomplished by attempting to preserve her engine functionality (Last Stand) and health pool (Survivability Expert); however, there are other useful skills at those levels as well, such as Expert Marksman and Advanced Firing Training. Captains will have to use their judgment to decide which is best for their play style.

Consumables
Anshan can equip the following consumables:
- Slot 1: Damage Control Party (
)
- Slot 2: Smoke Generator (
)
- Slot 3: Engine Boost (
)
Keeping Anshan’s engine in working order is paramount to her survival; captains are strongly recommended to spend the credits (or doubloons) on Damage Control Party II () for the reduced cooldown on repairs.
Camouflage
As a premium ship, Anshan comes included with Type 11 camouflage that is unique to her. It lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, increases the amount of experience she earns, and provides an additional bonus to the Free experience earned in battle.
