Player Opinion

Performance

' is a Japanese supercruiser at Tier X. Armed with 9x 310mm main guns and 16x 610mm long lance torpedoes, she is well-armed for a cruiser of her size. For her size, she is relatively quick and agile, and her main battery packs a punch. Further comprising her arsenal are long-range torpedoes and an effective anti-aircraft suite.

' can best be described as a sort of "hybrid" between the Tier X Japanese battleship Yamato and cruiser Zao. Her 9x 310mm guns are both powerful and more accurate than most supercruisers. Her HE sports high penetration, allowing her to punch through 50mm of armor found on heavily armored cruisers and BBs such as Petropavlovsk. Her AP also has very good penetration and will frequently land citadel strikes on broadside cruisers. This is somewhat offset by her slower reload, though it is faster than other supercruisers. If her guns weren't scary enough, ' also carries 20km torpedoes that can deal crippling damage to anything they hit. That being said, the torpedoes have a high detection range and thus are easy to dodge. Still, the threat of damage will force enemies to react, which can set up opportunities for or her teammates.

However, ' is surprisingly fragile for a ship her size. Her extremely vulnerable citadel means that an ill-timed maneuver can quickly send her back to port. Like other Japanese cruisers, ' also has issues with taking citadel hits through her poorly protected stern. However when properly angled, ' will have no trouble bouncing the majority of enemy AP shots that come her way. Though she has to be wary of BBs with larger than 430mm guns as their AP will overmatch s 30mm armor and severely damage her.

Similar to her smaller cousin Zao, s play style favors mid to long range combat, whittling opponents down in preparation for a decisive counter-attack. Compared to other kiting cruisers, '' is unique in that she can use both her guns and torpedoes to stall or even defeat major pushes. Careless opponents may see their entire push obliterated by a wall of torpedoes. Even heavily armored ships may rethink their attack for fear of her HE shells ignoring their armor advantage. ' can also pose a threat at very close range due to her large HP pool and formidable torpedo armament, though she has to be extremely careful of her angling due to her extremely vulnerable citadel. However, ' is relatively weak at close to mid-range as higher firepower cruisers can overwhelm her defenses and battleships have no trouble hitting her vulnerable sections of armor. Thus ' players should focus on mid to long range combat, prioritizing out trading the enemy ships until they are weak enough to fall in one decisive push.

Overall, ' is a reliable mid- to long-range kiting cruiser, and will be a worthy purchase for Japanese cruiser fans or those looking for a solid high tier kiting supercruiser.

Pros:

  • 30mm armored midsection will bounce any AP up to a caliber of 429mm
  • Relatively small superstructure, making it hard for destroyers to deal with with their guns.
  • High HE penetration value allows her to efficiently damage more heavily armored ships
  • AP has high penetration, superior to most heavy cruisers
  • Long main battery range that can be enhanced even farther with her Spotting Aircraft While active, a spotter plane circles the ship enhancing main battery firing range..
  • Access to Shimakaze's 20km hard-hitting torpedoes, with 2 launchers of 4 torpedoes on each side
  • Relatively fast with a base top speed of 34.0kts
  • Starts with 1 extra Repair Party While active, restores a percentage of the ship's health points each second. charge

Cons:

  • Fires burn for 60 seconds, similar to battleships and other Supercruisers
  • Low HP pool compared to other supercruisers, though still larger than standard cruisers
  • Does not have access to battleship survivability captain skills
  • Large exposed bow/stern sections that will frequently take full penetration damage
  • Sluggish turret traverse
  • Large and vulnerable citadel, frequently takes citadel hits through the stern
  • Very poor handling, further exacerbating her vulnerable citadel

Research

Despite being a premium ship, ' does have one upgrade choice:

Torpedoes: ' is equipped with the 12km Type93 mod. 3 torpedoes by default. It is recommended to equip the longer 20km Type93 torpedoes instead to complement s long-range play style.

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

The recommended upgrades for ' are as follows:

This is the general recommended build to give ' the most versatility in her playstyle. Players who want to use ' as a dedicated long-range damage farming cruiser can take Steering Gears Modification 2 : -40% rudder shift time. / -80% repair time. in slot 5 to enhance her dodging capabilities.

Commander Skills

Key skills for ' commanders include Gun Feeder, Adrenaline Rush, and Concealment Expert.

Consumables

' can equip the following consumables:

The choice between Defensive AA Fire While active, the damage per second of large caliber anti-aircraft guns is increased. or Hydroacoustic Search While active, detects all enemy ships and torpedoes within the specified radius, without regard of obstacles such as smoke and terrain. is player preference. ' appreciates the extra anti-air defense provided by Defensive AA Fire While active, the damage per second of large caliber anti-aircraft guns is increased. while Hydroacoustic Search While active, detects all enemy ships and torpedoes within the specified radius, without regard of obstacles such as smoke and terrain. will compensate for her poor maneuverability when dodging torpedoes.

Note: ' starts with one extra Repair Party While active, restores a percentage of the ship's health points each second. charge compared to other cruisers.

Camouflage

As a premium ship, ' comes with permanent Type 20 camouflage that lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, reduces her service cost, increases credits earned, and increases the amount of experience she earns.

Signals

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