This becomes even more apparent when she hits Kai Ni. Her opening torpedo hits the damage cap and can take out most enemy ships that you'll encounter. Do note she is classified as a "Torpedo Cruiser" which means she doesn't count as a light cruiser and can encounter routing or fleet composition restrictions. Although her high luck allows her to reliably perform torpedo cut-ins, this is not recommended as she already manages to almost reach the night battle cap with a double attack setup.+ + + + + + + + + + + − + − * Combat+ Line 90:
