Don't engage a free enemy. Always engage someone who is already busy dealing with one of your team mates. Smoke camp only when facing multiple targets close by. Recommended captain skills: PT, LS, SE, CE, AFT, BFT/DE, AR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I remember getting more success when I played it like an IJN torpedo boat, except with worse concealment and better guns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its hard to pick Ognevoi when you have a Benson, Lo Yang and Harekaze on your port tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I only have the Ognevoi (in my other account), but yeah, I'll probably take the Benson or the Lo Yang if I had them, as they're more versatile for me.
