Mutsuki
Tier V · Destroyer · Japan
Rating C- (Quite weak within its tier and class · overall score 16) · Stealthy destroyer
Stealthy destroyer. It is weak against destroyers (AP deals a same-tier destroyer's HP in about 6 min on paper · destroyer-calibre AP rarely overpens destroyers). Its 8.4 km torpedoes outrange its 5.4 km detectability by 3.0 km, ideal for stealth ambushes. Detectability of 5.4 km is 0.38 km below average, so it is less likely to be spotted first. Key skills: Engine Accelerator I ×3 (top speed +8%, 25 s). Weak guns: avoid gunfights and focus on torpedoes or spotting.
