Player Opinion

Performance

Warning. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.
For a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS".


Pros:

  • Marseilles is a deadly sudden punisher thanks to her 11.6km concealment with full build on Captain skill and upgrades. She can punish any cap contestor DD with her Engine Boost Consumable
  • Large set of consumable make an advantage over her compartner of the same tiers

Cons:

    Research

    As a top-tier ship, Marseille has no module upgrades to research.

    Optimal Configuration

    Upgrades

    The recommended upgrades are:


    Engine Boost Modification 1 Increases the action time of the Engine Boost and Emergency Engine Power consumables.: +50% action time. is recommended in slot 2 for players that have large coal reserves, to further boost Marseille's Engine Boost duration. But for those short on coal, Engine Room Protection : -20% to the risk of incapacitation. / -20% to repair time. should be used instead.
    In Slot 4, both Propulsion Modification 1 Reduces time to full speed: -50% to time for reaching full power. / Increases engine power when the ship starts moving. and Steering Gears Modification 1 : -20% rudder shift time. are viable options. Damage Control System Modification 2 : -15% flooding recovery time. / -15% fire duration. is available for players that want to reduce her 60 second fire duration, but is less optimal.

    Commander Skills

    The Honoré brothers feel particularly well-suited for the French large cruisers with their improved Grease the Gears skill and improved Adrenaline Rush skill.

    Consumables

    Marseille equips the following consumables: Marseille equips the following consumables:

    Signals
