Player Opinion
Pros:
- 150mm guns are absurdly powerful for a destroyer.
- Can deliver torpedo strikes from beyond her detection range.
- Torpedoes are fast with good range and hitting power for Tier VI. Her upgraded torpedoes are the same ones found on Admiral Graf Spee.
- Largest health pool of all Tier VI destroyers.
- Gains access to the Hydroacoustic Search consumable (B Hull Only!).
Cons:
- Sub-par handling characteristics for a destroyer: slow rudder shift and a turning radius larger than some Tier VI cruisers.
- 150mm guns traverse even slower than the 128mm ones after accounting for captain skills.
- Large detection radius (on par with Farragut and Ognevoi).
- Longest torpedo reload time of all Tier VI destroyers.
Research
Ernst Gaede is a very interesting ship; she's one of a handful that have access to two different gun calibers. Coupled with the fact that Hull (B) is a fairly minor upgrade to her anti-aircraft suite and rudder shift only, the upgraded Fire Control System module is the best thing to invest in first. After that, it's largely captain's preference. Captains can unlock the improved Main Battery module in order to experiment with the 150mm guns, or spend experience on a minor torpedo buff. Hull (B) can be taken whenever captains choose; the rudder shift buff is nice but not essential and the improvement to her AA battery is largely cosmetic.
Optimal Configuration
Upgrades
Like most destroyers, Ernst Gaede captains will want to plug Main Battery Modification 1 into Upgrade Slot 1 and Propulsion Modification 1 into Upgrade Slot 4. Gaede’s handling characteristics make Steering Gears Modification 2 in Upgrade Slot 5 an attractive (and popular) choice; otherwise, captains should reach for Propulsion Modification 2.
Upgrade Slot 2 offers either Aiming Systems Modification 1 or Main Battery Modification 2. With the 128mm guns, Main Battery Modification 2 is probably the best bet — especially if her commander has the Tier 1 skill Basic Firing Training — to provide the biggest boost to her turret traverse for a very small loss of reload speed. Captains who opt for the 150mm guns may wish to use Aiming Systems Modification 1 instead to improve her accuracy and — given her slower reload speed — make every shot count.

Consumables
Players can equip the following consumables on this destroyer: Damage Control Party, Smoke Generator, Engine Boost, and Hydroacoustic Search.
Camouflage
Type 1, 2, or 5 camouflage can be equipped for credits; Types 1 or 5 are recommended at a minimum to reduce detectibility range.
Players who wish to spend doubloons can equip Ernst Gaede with Type 16 camouflage that lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, and increases the amount of experience she earns.
Signals
The choice of which Signal Flags to mount will confer to the individual preference of each captain, and are subject to great variation, although there are certain flags which suit Destroyer gameplay better. Captains should mount India Yankee to decrease time to extinguish fires, mount November Foxtrot to decrease reload time of consumables, and mount Sierra Mike to increase the ship's maximum speed. To make their torpedoes more potent, captains should mount Juliet Whisky Unaone to increase chance of causing flooding and Juliet Charlie to mitigate risk to magazine detonation from mounting the former flag. If captains wish to buff their primary artillery, they are encouraged to mount Victor Lima + India X-ray to increase fire chance to HE shells.Gallery
