Anti-PT-ImpPT Imp Pack Setups
Unlike most standard Abyssals, PT-Imp PacksPT Imp Pack are very small and fast.
  • All ship types suffer a severe Accuracy accuracy and Firepower firepower penalty against PT-Imp.
  • Attacking them with larger guns is not very effective, smaller guns being recommended instead.

The Accuracy formula against PT-IMPs:[1][2][3][4]

  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Accuracy}_\text{vs.PT} = \biggl\lfloor \left( \left(\text{Accuracy}_\text{Standard} \times 0.42 + 24 \right) \times \text{Mod}_\text{Ship} \times \text{Mod}_\text{Gear} \times \text{Mod}_\text{Vanguard} \right) \biggr\rfloor }[/math]

With:

  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Accuracy}_\text{Standard} }[/math] is the standard accuracy described here
    • PT-Imps are "DDs" in the game, so the [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Mod}_\text{formation} }[/math] for vanguard is 0.88/1.32 for the top and bottom halves respectively.
    • Historical accuracy bonuses during Events is included in the Standard Accuracy Term, i.e. it is affected by the 0.42x modifier.
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Mod}_\text{Ship} }[/math] is the bonus given by ship types, described below,
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Mod}_\text{Gear} }[/math] is the bonus given by equipment, described below,
    • When several equipment are used on a ship, it is then the product of those bonuses.
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Mod}_\text{Vanguard} }[/math] is 1.2 when using the Vanguard FormationVanguard.png.[5]

has the ability to prioritize focusing on attacking PT-Imp with increased accuracy if any are present.

  • Ships placed in the composition slots above and below her will gain a small accuracy boost and will prioritize attacking PT-Imp if any are present.

Notes:

  • It is recommended to use anti-PT setups on DDs only, such setups compromising overall combat effectiveness.
  • Having a Reinforcement Expansion is important because it can save a ship slot by containing a machine gun or skilled lookouts.
  • Combining equipment is recommended to see significant boosts to accuracy.
  • Using other setups improving accuracy is also advisable:

  5. The formula is inconsistent for attackers with 2 small guns in vanguard formation. For the most part, underestimations (up to 10% difference in hit rate) are observed. It is not clear what may lead to this at the moment.

    may work too based on damage formula, but untested.
