![]() ![]() It looks like a torpedo boat but the guns have great alpha. Shininome is also great, and you can earn it through a campaign for free. It can be played as a torpedo boat or hybrid, depending on how you configure it, and recent changes to IJN HE pen has buffed an already good ship. M y favorite premium in the whole game is the Harekaze. Also, use the speed boost for extra maneuverability against torps, not for speed across the map. Start to angle against torps as soon as you are spotted or smoke up. Take Vigilance on your captain, because getting torped in smoke is the main way you die. Well, all of them: Akizuki - Kitakaze - Harugumo. Shimakaze of course! I run the 8k F3 torps for maximum lolz but they have a very high skill floor. Even though it’s in the “gunboat” line, it’s really a torpedo spammer. Shiratsuyu is the first to get Torpedo Reload Booster, and T7 doesn’t always have radar. Minekaze can stealth torp at T5 which is unique, but I prefer Fubuki at T6 as a mid-tier torp boat. Then you get to 8-10 where the gunboat line actually learns to gunboat and does it well, and the torp line because of the nerf and the amount of hydro, captains with Vig, the detection upgrade that spots things sooner - their torps are a joke when the top tier USN DD's, German DD's, and in particular PA DD's can actually better fill the torp boat role, while having better guns. With the other being that Minekaze is actually part of the gunboat line, which at tiers 6 and 7 is still trying to be a torpedo boat line, which, doesn't work well. Joke is the Kami clone sare the only torpedo boats other than Minekaze that are actually balanced to torpedo boat well. That are frequently called OP while Minekaze is forgotten about. Problem really is that the IJN torp boats now have torps spotted seconds sooner than other nations, with guns that do not back them up well at all, so their teeth have pretty much been taken out, other than Minekaze which has the same stealth, faster torp reload, and the same torp spotted range as other nations, giving her torps similar reaction times left as her cousins the Kami clones. If IJN did not get a spotting range nerf on torps tier 9 and lower so they had the same detection as other nations do - I'd say go to the Shimakaze (which was a tad over nerfed as well). Minekaze, Fubuki, Akatsuki, Akizuki, Kitakaze, Haragumo. ![]()
