Player Opinion


Pros:

  • Decent main batteries - decent reload speed and turret traverse
  • Decent torpedoes - decent speed, range, and alpha damage
  • Can single launch torpedoes
  • Has superb acceleration similar to the Royal Navy light cruisers
  • Decent concealment

Cons:

  • Poor survivability - lack of useful Smoke Generator and lack of Engine Boost consumables combined with her low health pool makes disengaging difficult
  • Poor shell ballistics - slow velocity and deal little damage
  • Poor speed - lack of Engine Boost consumable easily puts Acasta as the slowest destroyer of Tier V

Research

Availability of researchable upgrades for Acasta is as follows:

  • Hull: Upgrade to Hull (B) for increased health and better rudder shift. Research of this module unlocks progression to Icarus.
  • Gun Fire Control System: Upgrade to Mk V mod. 2 for an extra 10% range on the main battery.

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

The recommended upgrades for Acasta are as follows:

Commander Skills

Key skills for Acasta commanders include Last Stand, Basics of Survivability, and Concealment Expert.

Consumables

Acasta can equip the following consumables:

Camouflage

Type 1, 2, or 5 camouflage can be equipped for credits; Types 1 or 5 are recommended at a minimum to reduce detectibility range.

Signals

Note: Use of the Juliet Charlie signal makes detonation impossible.
