Performance

The only real way to explain Austin is to compare her to her nearest counterpart in game USS Atlanta. Both are USN light cruisers armed with five inch rifles and torpedoes. Both are good anti aircraft platforms for their respective tiers. Both are thinly armored ships easily punished if caught flatfooted. That said, captains should be aware that the minor differences between these two ships can cause serious differences between their respective playstyles.

The main battery for Austin consists of twelve 127mm guns arranged in six turrets with two rifles each. Unlike with Atlanta she finds herself missing her wing turrets which decreases her broadside by a pair of rifles. While this doesn’t drastically change the damage output of the ship it can be noticeable at times in terms of a ship surviving or not. This also plays a role in the amount of fires set as there are fewer shells to cause a potential fire. Armed with high-explosive (HE) and semi-armor piercing (SAP) shells she is a menace against destroyers she encounters as either shell type will inflict heavy damage. Against cruisers captains again should be mindful that she has no armor piercing like her tier VII contemporary. This means she gets more forgiving ricochet angles and thus can engage ships presenting more angle than with contemporary armor piercing. Combining this with decent damage values for her semi armor piercing shells it allows her to carry her weight where Atlanta could not. Captains would be advised to stick with high-explosive if the battleship has more plating then 32mm. However when dealing with battleships. Austin does also get another advantage over Atlanta in the form of a Main Battery Reload Booster . This allows captains to bring her 8 second base reload, down to a sub 2 seconds and all but literally rain fire upon her enemies.

Austin sports a pair of quintuple torpedo mounts located amid ship. Players familiar with Fletcher torpedoes will be quite comfortable with the 10.5 km range and 66 knot running speed. This gives captains a luxury not offered to many other USN cruisers. Utilizing her decent speed captains can utilize these torpedoes to flush out enemy destroyers hiding within smoke or laying an ambush of their own. Furthermore, with the right modifications and crew skills Austin can in theory fire her torpedoes without being detected but this at best gives captains only a kilometre to work with. Aside from their primary offensive use, captains may also make use of these torpedoes to help gauge an enemy’s speed and direction to better aim her main battery or choose a position to attack from.

Like most late tier American cruisers she brings a fantastic amount of Anti Aircraft fire to the table. With six 76mm anti aircraft guns in three turrets per broadside, Austin is already boasting decent anti aircraft power; she doubles down with dual purpose main battery guns. What this entails is that from 4km’s out she is averaging 421.8 damage per second, making her arguably the strongest USN anti air cruiser in the game as of this writing. Sadly, while she does also benefit from the Defensive AA Fire  consumable, she does not have unlimited charges like the Atlanta.

Austin players will find that she has the lowest amount of hit points of all of the Tier X Cruisers with only 30,700 hit points. To put this in perspective this means that she only has 3,200 hit points more than the Atlanta found three tiers lower. With the thickest armor outside of her citadel 32mm thick she is quite fragile compared to same tier cruisers. While this is thankfully thicker than the 13mm plate found on Atlanta what this means is that shells that would normally over pen the Atlanta will arm against Austin and deal far more damage. Thankfully, she comes equipped with a Repair Party  consumable allowing captains to heal back some of the health lost in battle and help extend the life time of the ship in battle.

Captains who enjoy playing in Atlanta will probably enjoy Austin as she is. There are some similarities in their overall playstyle but captains should be aware that there are several key distinctions. The first major distinction from Atlanta comes from a lack of Surveillance Radar 

. This means that while she is effective at removing destroyers from the battle like her contemporary, she shouldn’t be leading charges into caps and contesting against enemy destroyers. Captains could arguably spec into improving her mobility and utilizing her Hydroacoustic Search 

; this will also resulthis as a standard strategy for her. Be it as it may, captains would find that utilizing cover and making use of the traditional high shell arcs t in them exposing themselves to enemy fire. Building upon the idea of improving manoeuvrability some captains may prefer to spec her for open water firing to which can have some success but this requires a combination of skill, luck, and captain builds which make it hard to recommend of USN light cruisers is the best course of action much like with Atlanta. Combine this with solid torpedoes, access to Defensive AA Fire 

, Main Battery Reload Booster 

, and Hydroacoustic Search 

consumables. Austin excels at locking down key points on the map and whittling down enemy ships unlucky enough to enter her sights.

Prós:

Extremely quick main battery traverse speed
Despite the gun caliber, Austin's main guns have fairly flat shell arcs and decent ballistics
Very good HE fire chance
SAP shells have improved penetration angles and 36mm raw penetration
One quintuple torpedo launcher per side of the ship, equipped with Fletcher's upgraded torpedoes (good range, speed and damage)
Hull side plating is 32mm thick, ideal to ricochet AP shells with the proper angling
Very powerful AA defenses, aided by the Defensive AA Fire  consumable
Improved Repair Party  consumables with one extra charge and higher than average health recovery
The Main Battery Reload Booster  consumable has unlimited charges, and provides a massive DPM boost when active
Excellent ship handling - high top speed, good turn radius and good rudder shift
Very good concealment with all the relevant upgrades

Contras:

Smallest hitpoint pool of all Tier 10 cruisers
Unmodified, Austin's rate of fire is fairly disappointing
Short main battery range
Poorly armored and exposed citadel
The Main Battery Reload Booster  has a very short activation time and a long cooldown
Its armor is too thick to let shells overpenetrate (as it's the case with smolensk) but too thin to really give any meaningful protection. It also lacks things like a superheal, making it arguably the most fragile cruiser on tier 10.
