As the title says, I am quite close to Udaloi right now (140k exp in my Ognevoi and loving her). I didn't manage to get her before the line split, so I need some advice on her captain and module build. Current capt: 16 pts PM, PT, LS, BFT, AFT, CE with 1pt lying around and enough doubs to reset if needed. I am planning to put reload module on her T9+ slot and concealment module on her T8+ slot. I would prefer a mid-range gun-torp hybrid build but seeing her concealment is not as good as Ognevoi, I also need some playstyle advice. Good luck and fair seas to you all kind souls in advance!

I believe both guns on Udaloi and Grozovoi reload pretty darn fast so switching ammo type wouldn't be a problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yes, on second thought, switching ammo type is quite important Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would add AR to the captain once you get a couple more points. A concealment build with a gun focus is the way to go with Udaloi imo. You provide close support for your friendly low concealment DD's going into caps at start, you run and gun at range, and you stealth up and torp when the opportunity presents itself. Always save your speed flags for the T9 & 10 RU DD's, they can be the difference between winning and losing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My (only 12 points right now zzz) cap build for udaloi and future grozovoi : PT, AR, LS, SE, SI, CE, AFT Use rudder mod on udaloi, planning to use concealment on grozovoi. I play udaloi like the kiev, typical RU DD style. Edited August 23, 2017 by WongSongMing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I play udaloi like the kiev, typical RU DD style. Is superintendent really that important on RU DDs? I have SI on all cruisers because extra hydro/AA and heal. But DDs dont really rely on consumables that much (especially RU DD don't rely on smoke) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
