Player Opinion

Performance

Duca d'Aosta, named after Prince Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy, 2nd Duke of Aosta, is a tier VI Italian Cruiser which features a playstyle unique to any other ship in game. She features eight 6" guns in four turrets in an ABXY configuration, and a triple torpedo launcher on each side. Her guns feature high velocity and flat arcs, making leading enemy ships at range easy, but bad AP performance, making HE her primary round. Her torpedoes also have a 12km range, allowing for some interesting uses that other cruisers, with their shorter range torpedoes, are not capable of. However, Duca d'Aosta has a very vulnerable citadel, similar to the Russian cruisers at her tier, meaning that one must play carefully to avoid being punished hard. She also has relatively bad turning and poor acceleration, making her more vulnerable if caught in a bad situation.

Pros:

  • Duca d'Aosta has a top speed of 36.5 knots making her one of the fastest cruisers.
  • The ship can mount the Hydroacoustic Search, Defensive Fire, and Spotter Aircraft consumables simultaneously.
  • The torpedoes have an impressive 12km range and reload speed of only 71 seconds.
  • The main battery guns fire at a very high velocity.

Cons:

  • Similar to other light cruisers, Duca d'Aosta's armor will not withstand many hits from large caliber shells.
  • The traverse speed of the main turrets is somewhat slow and will sometimes lose their aim during hard turns.
  • The fire chance on the HE shells is low at 7%.
  • Despite their range, the torpedoes are slow at only 51 knots.

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

As a Tier VI ship with access to four of the upgrade slots, the following upgrades are recommended:

Slot 1

Slot 2

Slot 4

Slot 5

Commander Skills


Signals

As with most ships, the Duca d'Aosta has 8 slots for signal flags. Victor Lima and India X-Ray are highly recommended to boost fire chance, increasing the damage potential of the ship. Zulu Hotel is also highly recommended as it increases commander xp gains, which is already high due to the Duca d'Aosta being a premium ship, and the signal flag being relatively easy to obtain. XP gains can be multiplied even further with the Equal Speed Charlie London, Papa Papa, and Dragon Flag signal flags, which boost regular xp gains, free xp gains, and commander xp gains, respectively. The Zulu signal flag may also be mounted to increase the credit income of the ship, which premium ships are good for. Sierra Mike is recommended in order to make the already fast Duca d'Aosta even faster. Finally, you may choose to add the Juliet Charlie signal flag in order to prevent detonations to the ship .

Note: Use of the Juliet Charlie signal makes detonation impossible.
