Special Attacks/Nelson-class Touch

Nelson has a special attack called the Nelson Touch that targets 3 enemies at random.

• Nelson must be the flagship.
  • Secretary for combined fleets.
  • She must not be more than lightly damaged (小破).
• The 3rd and 5th ships must not be carriers or submarines.
  • They must not be heavily damaged (大破).
• There must be 6 or more surface ships in the fleet.
  • There must be no submarine in 6-ship fleets. In 7-ship fleets, only 1 submarine is allowed.
  • There must be no surface ship in the fleet sunk or retreated via FCF
    during sortie causing remaining < 6. Ships in the escort fleet are not affected.
• Double Line needs to be selected in a single fleet OR Cruising Formation 2 for a combined fleet.

• If triggered, Nelson, the 3rd ship, and the 5th ship will perform one attack each with a 2x post-cap modifier.
  • If the engagement is Red T, then the post-cap modifier becomes 2.5x.
• It seems to give a little accuracy bonus.
• Even if the other two ships can attack submarines, they will never target them during the touch.

• It does not cost any extra resources if triggered.

• Can be triggered even if artillery spotting fails to activate.
• Can only be activated once per sortie.
• Has a chance to trigger every time Nelson takes a turn at shelling.
  • In single fleet, if it fails to trigger in day battle, there is a chance to trigger it in the follow-up night battle.
• Trigger rate is believed to be related to:
  • The total level of all girls involved in the attack
  • If all three ships are lv.99 the trigger rate is around 60%~65%.
• Trigger rate is affected by Nelson's luck stat.
