Special

Mysore — Commonwealth special premium Tier VI cruiser.

A Fiji-class light cruiser built for the British Royal Navy. After refurbishment that improved the ship's AA defenses at the cost of a reduced number of main battery guns, she was transferred to the Indian Navy and renamed Mysore in 1957.

Mysore first went on sale on 28 January 2021.

The Ship

Mysore is a premium Commonwealth Navy version of the Royal Navy's Fiji at Tier VI. While many of her core traits such as hull, handling and shell characteristics are similar, the removal of torpedoes and addition of Crawling Smoke Generator  significantly changes her playstyle. In essence, Mysore shifts focus from damage output and concealment to mobility and careful positioning. Mysore has a similar rudder shift and a tight turning circle in comparison to Fiji but a tier lower at tier 6. Mysore's utility, range and armor synergise well with her maneuverability.

Armor

Mysore shares the same hull as Fiji, with a small 51mm mid-section deck and an elevated, stepped central citadel. Upon closer inspection Fiji has 13mm bow and stern armor, whereas Mysore has 16mm. As a result, Mysore can resist damage from most Heavy Cruisers in her matchmaking spread when angled. Notable exceptions to this are Graf Spee, Congress, and the French Large Cruiser branch, which can land penetrations at all angles. This armor difference lets Mysore keep her guns more active between Crawling Smoke uses.

Armament

Mysore is armed with nine 152mm guns in triple turrets in an AB-X configuration. Like other Royal Navy light cruisers, her guns fire short-fuse AP shells. The shells deal 3300 damage, compared to Fijis 3100, and fly faster, arc less, and penetrate more armor. However, Mysore's guns reload in 10.7 seconds compared to 8 seconds on Leander and Fiji, which makes her guns feel more like a heavy cruiser. Because of these traits, Players should carefully aim for the superstructure on heavily armored and angled ships. Mysore lacks torpedoes, leaving the ship vulnerable to aggressive opponents. Finally, Mysore carries good anti-aircraft for Tier VI, with decent mid-range damage over time and long-range flak. Unfortunately, like most other ships in tier, this will not deter skilled Tier VI carriers.

Battle Performance

Mysore is equipped with Crawling Smoke Generator 

, Hydroacoustic Search 

and Repair Party 

. These consumables build upon her other traits, and give her some respite from aircraft and space to recover from errors. While most Royal Navy Light Cruisers are limited by their static smokescreens, Mysore is better able to keep all of her guns active. Notably, the ship's frontal Damage Per Minute potential exceeds most other Tier VI Light Cruisers. As a result, Mysore can play relatively aggressively against lighter enemy ships, while positioning carefully against enemies with large main guns. In the hands of a captain that can position carefully, Mysore has the potential to influence most battles, even when uptiered.

Pros:

Short fuse AP is excellent against lightly armored targets, particularly Destroyers
Good AA defenses for tier and type
16mm bow and stern armor can bounce 203mm shells
Good consumable suite, including Crawling Smoke Generator , Hydroacoustic Search  and Repair Party .

Cons:

No Torpedo Armament
Large stepped citadel vulnerable to battleships and big gun cruisers
No High Explosive shells means damaging angled targets requires careful aim
Relatively slow reload

Research

As a premium ship, Mysore has no module upgrades to research.

Commander Skills

Recommended Build: Grease the Gears is a good first choice to enable players to quickly adjust for fire. Consumables Enhancements at Tier 2 to extend consumable duration, Priority Target is also a decent choice. After that, Superintendent because Consumables are your bread and butter, followed by Concealment Expert at 10 points. Survivability Expert, Adrenaline Rush and Radio Location are all strongly recommended, the sequence you unlock them is at the player’s discretion. Survivability Expert is great for some extra health, Adrenaline Rush improves damage output and Radio Location can help you predict where the spotting or torpedo threats are coming from. For the last point, either IFA or Last Stand are good picks.
