Fit Bonuses
Analysis
Akatsuki Kai
Priority: Low
- At first remodel, she has low firepower and a decent torpedo stat, making her hitting harder in night battle than at day, but not great at either.
- While not impressive in combat, do keep in mind than many maps require you to bring at least a few destroyers for routing.
- Furthermore, destroyers are cheap to deploy and can equip Drum Canister, making them suited for expeditions.
Akatsuki Kai Ni
Priority: Medium-Low
- Her second remodel increases her Torpedo and Firepower stat, which makes her suited for surface combat.
- She can perform OASW before marriage, but that requires her level to be extremely close to 99 and still giving up the depth charge synergy bonus unless she's equipped with rare ASW items such as HF/DF + Type144/147 ASDIC.
Recommended Roles
- Surface combat (Second remodel)
Important Information
- Required for A10, A52, A53, B12, B42, B44, and B45.
