Player Opinion

Battleship - Hyūga W

Pros:

• Good damage output for a battleship with twelve 356 mm guns.
• Large HP pool.
• Extremely well armored; quite tanky when getting hit by HE shells, and her citadel is hard to hit.
• Better concealment than her half-sister Fusō.
• Access to the Main Battery Reload Boosterconsumable, which provides devastating sequence of salvoes and is unique for Tier V battleships.

Cons:

• Secondary battery is weaker than Fusō's. Most of the guns are of smaller caliber with less penetration and damage.
• Weak AA armament.
• Poor main battery firing angles when facing forward.
