Player Opinion

Battleship - ARP Musashi

Pros:

  • 460 mm (18.1") guns are capable of penetrating the bow armor of almost every ship in the game at any range due to overmatch mechanics.
  • Excellent 55% torpedo damage reduction.
  • Large HP pool.
  • Strong, reliable armor when angled properly against enemy ships.
  • Better rudder shift time than her sister, Yamato.



Cons:

  • Extremely weak AA suite.
  • Large turning circle radius, slow rudder shift, and low top speed.
  • Tall flat sides make her vulnerable to citadels from broadside targets.
  • Noticeably worse accuracy than Yamato due to worse sigma.
  • Only comes with 2 charges of the Repair PartyLegends_Repair_Party.pngconsumable, instead of the standard 3
