How it Works: Consumables. 17 Aug 2020


Consumable_PCY009_CrashCrew.png
Consumables are temporary bonuses that have strong effects with a limited number of uses. There are a variety of consumables; some are only available to certain ships or classes at certain tiers. Choosing the right consumable and knowing when to use it can be the difference between a good game or a great game -- or between winning and losing.

The tables below contain base values only. Commander skills, signal flags, and upgrades can change these values. For example, the signal flag November Foxtrot (-5% reload time on all consumables.) reduces the cooldown times of all consumables by 5%. The Superintendent skill for cruisers and destroyers adds one additional charge for each consumable. Other skills and signals affect only certain consumables. The upgrades Ship Consumables Modification 1 : +10% action time. and Squadron Consumables Modification 1 : +50% action time [CVs only]. increase the action times of ship and squadron consumables, respectively. Finally, for some consumables, there is also a special upgrade that increases its action time.

Gunships

Damage Control Party

Damage Control Party is the basic consumable found on all ships. It instantly repairs all module incapacitations, extinguishes fires, and stops floods. While it is active enemy submarine-launched torpedoes cannot home.

When activated, the Catapult Fighter consumable deploys a group of fighters from the ship's catapult to defend the ship against air attack.

Consumable_PCY005_Spotter.png

Spotting Aircraft

Similar to the Catapult Fighter consumable, the Spotting Aircraft consumable launches a plane from the ship's catapult. The unarmed Spotting Aircraft increases the range of the ship's main battery and gives an "aerial" perspective when scoping.

Consumable_PCY006_SmokeGenerator.png

Smoke Generator

The common Smoke Generator emits vision-obscuring smoke that can hide ships or block the view through a choke point.

Consumable_PCY006_SmokeGeneratorCrawler.png

Crawling Smoke Generator

With similarities to both the base Smoke Generator and the Exhaust Smoke Generator, the Crawler Smoke Generator deploys smoke to conceal the ship while the ship moves at up to 1/4 speed.

Consumable_PCY006_SmokeGeneratorOil.png

Exhaust Smoke Generator

Found exclusively on Italian ships, the Exhaust Smoke Generator deploys smoke to conceal the ship. What makes this type of generator unique is that it generates a screen that covers the ship while it moves at up to full speed. Other generators require that the ship move slowly or not at all to stay within the smoke screen.

Consumable_PCY015_SpeedBoosterPremium.png

Engine Boost

The Engine Boost consumable enhances the ship's engine power and top speed.

Main Battery Reload Booster

A Main Battery Reload Booster briefly reduces the reload time of the ship's main battery. The quick reload may allow the battery to fire one or more knockout salvos in a critical situation.

Consumable_PCY018_TorpedoReloaderPremium.png

Torpedo Reload Booster

Activating a Torpedo Reload Booster instantly reduces the ship's torpedo reload time. (The Booster will not activate if a mount is not reloading.) A captain can use the Booster immediately after firing all of his torpedoes, then fire a full salvo again in short order. This often surprises an enemy who feels safe after dodging the first salvo.

Notes

With Update 0.9.4 all base consumables were removed from the game and all "premium" consumable became free.

As of Update 0.8.0, aircraft can no longer spot enemy torpedoes and players controlling aircraft carriers (not including the strike aircraft) do not have to (i.e. cannot) manually activate their consumables. Aircraft characteristics.
