Rating D (Bottom tier within its tier and class · overall score 10) · Agile battleship
Agile battleship. It is weak against cruisers (AP deals a same-tier cruiser's HP in about 5 min on paper). Key skills: Engine Accelerator III ×2 (top speed +16%, 25 s); Rapid Reload III ×2 (main battery reload +100%, 15 s). Its firepower trails other battleships, so be selective and punish broadsides. A firepower equipment build improves reload 19.5→18.52 s, dispersion 361→329 m. With only 57,751 effective HP, hit-and-run from cover works better than head-on fights.
