Player Opinion

Performance

Warning: The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.
Refer to the in-game Port screens for more useful data.

With the exception of visual appearance, ARP Maya is identical to ARP Takao and Atago, and therefore shares the same playstyle. For an in depth performance appraisal, refer to Atago's or ARP Takao's articles.

Pros:

Very high speed, capable of a brisk 37 knots with Sierra Mike
Has the access to the Repair Party consumable, allowing for HP recovery like battleships and higher tier cruisers. ARP Maya can have significant staying power late game compared to her contemporaries if it can avoid taking big hits.
Much wider torpedo launch arcs than regular tech tree Japanese cruisers; having 2 front-mounted and 2 rear-mounted allows for more flexible torpedo usage. Position of the forward torpedo launcher allows for bold plays against other cruisers
Excellent gun accuracy, equal to that of Zao
Fast rudder shift
Very narrow target. Can be difficult to hit if kiting away
Low detection range; with the Concealment Expert skill, the cruiser has an astonishing 9.3km detection range.
10 km torpedoes with excellent damage, Atago is able to launch torpedoes while undetected with a full stealth build
Lethal HE shells with excellent fire starting capabilities and damage
Heavy 10-gun broadside with an equally heavy HE alpha strike
41mm mid-deck armor. Can lead to large caliber shells occasionally bouncing off the deck at long range, as well as shattering HE shells from some cruisers

Cons:

Citadel is very vulnerable with easily overmatched extremeties, caution is advised when engaging battleships
Modules -- notably the rudder, gun turrets and torpedo tubes -- are very easy to disable under sustained HE fire
Difficult to fire both torpedo launchers in quick succession due to the opposing orientation of the launchers. Almost flat broadside must be given to do so
Turret setup requires an uncomfortable amount of broadside to be given to fire all five guns
Longest reload time of any Japanese 203mm gun at 16 seconds. Adrenaline Rush is a must-have skill
Mediocre turret traverse; however, Expert Marksman mitigates some of this
Unremarkable AP performance, only usable against flat broadside cruisers
Terrible AA suite

Research

As a premium ship, ARP Maya doesn't have any upgrades to research.

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades
