| − | '''Submarines''' ([[SS]], also including '''"Aircraft Carrying Submarines"''' [[SSV]]) are characterized by relatively low armor and HP. By contrast, they are difficult to handle using "normal setups", requiring instead specific '''Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW)''' equipment and setups in order to be sunk.
| |
| − | | |
| − | During sorties, submarines are typically found at pre-boss nodes, but some can be boss themselves, see ''[[Enemy#Bosses (SS)|here]]''.

| − | ==Attack Behavior==
| |
| − | Unlike regular surface ships, submarines:
| |
| − | *Cannot be targeted by normal shelling attacks,
| |
| − | *Are immune to air and torpedo attacks,
| |
| − | *Cannot take more than [[Scratch Damage|scratch damage]] during night battle,
| |
| − | **'''Therefore they cannot be sunk at night''',
| |
| − | **The exception to this rule is when a battle starts at night, or when attacking with a [[Combined Fleet]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===ASW attack conditions===
| |
| − | Only certain ships meeting certain conditions can attack SS(V).

| − | ==Damage calculation==
| |
| − | The stats used to calculate damage against submarines is the {{ASW}} ASW.
| |
| − | *When contributing to ASW power, Base {{ASW}} ASW is '''square rooted''', while equipment ASW is '''multiplied by 1.5'''
| |
| − | **[[:Category:Anti-submarine Weaponry|Anti-submarine weaponry]] is therefore the primary source of ASW damage, with the base ship ASW playing a very minor role damage-wise.
| |
| − | **However, base ship ASW is the primary determinant of whether a ship can reach 100 total ASW to perform '''"[[#Opening ASW Shelling (OASW)|Opening ASW]]"''' (OASW) attacks.
| |
| − | *Unlike sheeling, ASW damage is capped at 170.
| |
| − | ASW attacks have different modifiers gained from [[Formation]]s,
| |
| − | *{{ToolTip|[[Combat#Formation_Selection|Line Abreast]]|[[File:LineAbreast.png]]}} is the main ASW formation, with a 1.3x damage modifier,
| |
| − | *{{ToolTip|[[Combined_Fleet#Formation_Selection|Cruising Formation 1]]|[[File:Formation_1.png]]}} is the main ASW formation for [[Combined Fleet]]s, with a 1.3x damage modifier.

| |
| − | As general rules:
| |
| − | *The first priority is to have OASW, even at the expense of synergy:
| |
| − | **[[DE]] can OASW more easily than [[DD]],
| |
| − | **Because {{ASW}} increase with levels using high-level ships can help,
| |
| − | **Take note that DEs have bonus armor penetration from Depth Charges.
| |
| − | *To further maximize ASW effectiveness, regardless if an OASW is triggered or not, it is recommended to use:
| |
| − | **{{Small Sonar}} {{DCP}} {{DCR}}
| |
| − | *When using carriers, it is recommended to use [[CVE]], as they have a base {{ASW}} stat.

| |
| − | | This ASW setup maximizes the ASW by taking advantage of the synergy. One of the depth charges needs to be a [[DCR|Depth Charge Projector]] while the other needs to be a [[DCR|Depth Charge (Racks)]]. Take note that '''reaching the [[OASW]] threshold takes precedence over everything'''. So you should just replace depth charges with equipment that has better ASW if you cannot hit the threshold with this setup.
