* Devs [https://twitter.com/KanColle_STAFF/status/818739607776804866 claim] that currently the only effect from higher speed is increase in evasion. However, its magnitude/scope/existence is still investigated by players (preliminary tests suggest that there is no significant increase in evasion<ref>https://twitter.com/Xe_UCH/status/819164409025032195</ref><ref>http://ja.kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/%E3%82%B9%E3%83%AC%E3%83%83%E3%83%89:676</ref>).
