Player Opinion
Pros:
- Shenyang is the fastest destroyer at her tier, reaching top speeds of 39 knots even without the Engine Boost consumable engaged.
- Her Smoke Generator consumable has a short cool-down timer, allowing her to deploy a smokescreen quickly after one has dissipated.
- Guns have a good fire rate and great high explosive damage, making them especially effective against other enemy destroyers.
- Fast, hard hitting torpedoes with decent range for her tier.
Cons:
- The ship carries deep water torpedoes which are ineffective against destroyers.
- Cannot launch torpedoes undetected without the Concealment Expert commander skill.
- Similar to Mutsuki, Shenyang mounts only two sets of torpedo launchers.
