21 ILLBBACK2604 Member 115 posts Report post #2 Posted March 14, 2018 Good ship , has better guns, torps, HP than Kagero. Concealment can get down to 5.5km. 14 pts is fine I'd run Prevention, Last stand, Torpedeo Reload, Concealment and RDF Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mate, 10 point captains are good enough for pretty much every ship in the game. You really don't need to worry about having a minimum number of skill points.

626 Harpoon01 Alpha Tester 6,605 posts 2,889 battles Report post #5 Posted March 14, 2018 you will play exactly the same ship anyway (Her health pool goes up by the slimmest of amounts (400 hit points), Her speed improves slightly (0.5 knots), Even Yūgumo’s detection radius is worse than Kagero’s (0.1 km)), so not much different the only different is you can go gunnery build still 50% slower than flether, but at least now as fast as stock Grozovoi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You really don't need to worry about having a minimum number of skill points. Not in case of Akizuki and Harekaze, they need at least 14 skill point to work normally, and high tier IJN DD need at least 13 skill since you will need both of Torpedo Armament Expertise and Survivability Expert, it hard to to play with out those skill, after that Back to topic i think 14 skill point on Yuugumo will work fine. In my Yuugumo i take PM-LS-TAE-SE-CE and after that you can take what ever you want Compared to Kagerou, i feel Yuugumo is much better, better torpedo range, and it gun actually usable. Probably one of best DD in line. Even compared with Shima, Yuugumo still very good. Edited March 14, 2018 by K135Blitzkrieg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
55 Webba84 Member 288 posts 5,590 battles Report post #7 Posted March 14, 2018 (edited) Akizuki and Harekaze are exceptions due to their gun calibre while TAE is nice to have but hardly essential, and it's not going to make up for a lack of player skill. Fact is that CE is the really essential skill for destroyers (as well as LS, but that's easy to get). Basic build of PM-LS-SE/SI-CE works for pretty much every destroyer (excepting some Russian and Japanese) and makes sure you'll be plenty competitive. Obviously having AR, TAE, SI, RDF etc are very nice, but you don't need them to do well in the same way you need CE, not in randoms anyway.

8 [ATLAS] 0utsider Member 18 posts 19,760 battles Report post #11 Posted March 14, 2018 (edited) nah, your team will always cry for you to spot enemy dd (gunbote) , go cap (when there is z52 and gearing inside it) , etc. thats the hardest part with ijn dd line. i think this is a common knowledge but always reverse cap in an ijn dd unless you 100% sure that cap is safe.

No my friend . I am personally never interested to spot I only aim at capitalizing the spotting done by allied DD or CL xDDD 5 minutes ago, 0utsider said: i think this is a common knowledge but always reverse cap in an ijn dd unless you 100% sure that cap is safe.
