Player Opinion
Performance
Pros:
- Very agile and maneuverable, can out-run and out-turn almost any ship.
- Detection range allows for close range torpedo drops and easy flanking.
- The Torpedoes on the Wakatake are the strongest in tier III. The Wakatake has the capability of destroying any ship in tier III with a perfect torpedo salvo.
- High speed and good concealment make for a good ship to get these torpedoes on target.
Cons:
- Turret rotation cannot keep up with maneuvers. Hard to get a shot off in twisting attacks.
- Torpedo range similar to detection range, thus leaving you a small window of attack.
- Vulnerable to rudder and engine damage.
- Low HP compared to other ships.
- Almost no AA.
- Has very weak artillery.
- Torpedo distance is shorter than that of her predecessor, the Umikaze in exchange for damage.
- Has fewer hit points than that of the Umikaze.
