Player Opinion
Pros:
- Excellent ability to start fires with her HE shells.
- Torpedoes have a fast reload and are stealthy.
- Ability to single fire torpedoes.
- Hydroacoustic Search can keep her from being surprised by torpedoes.
- Enhanced auto bounce angles increase’s the effectiveness of AP vs angled targets.
- Heal allows Daring to stay in the fight for longer.
- Short duration smoke generator with short cooldown, can make 'hit and run' style tactics very effective.
Cons:
- The smoke from her Smoke Generator has a short action time and smoke duration.
- The lack of Engine Boost makes Daring slow when compared to other destroyers at her tier.
- No Defensive AA Fire to increase her AA effectiveness.
- Requires Inertia Fuse for HE Shells to be able to effectively damage ships.
- Concealment is worse than her predecessor, Jutland.
