− | :At first remodel, she has mediocre Firepower and a bad Torpedo stat, making her decent for daytime surface combat thanks to [[Artillery Spotting]] but poorly suited for night battle. | |
− | :That means that while her Luck stat of 30 lets her perform cut-in attacks at night with some reliability, those just won't hit for much.
| |
− | :On the other side, she consumes less fuel and ammo than most heavy cruisers, so leveraging her fit bonus by outfitting her with [[20.3cm(no.2) Twin Gun Mount]] is a good way to increase her Firepower, resulting in a cheap anti-surface CA.
