Inertia fuse or advanced fire training for DD Aigle?

[Tossle]

Can't decide which is more useful, the added HE shell penetration for my 139mm guns or Advanced Fire Training which would increase gun range from 12.8 to 15.3.

you are not gonna hit anything meaningful at 15.2 with that goddawful arc and beautiful curved shell speed that match a turtlee upside down.

I advise you to forget about IFHE or AFT , instead go demolition so you can actually set fires where it matters or invest in BFT so your constrained gun arc doesnt hurt that much.

Can you hit anything at 15km?

[Tossle]

Yes I can. 

I guess Inertia shells, Im just still crankypants from my last game where I came 2nd, because the final CA was out of range at 14km.

I already out shoot other DD due to 139 guns, the added penetration would really hurt them.

Thanks, probably demolition is way to go. BFT maybe not, cant see that reducing reload from 5 to 4.5 will win games.

Increase in HE penetrate does not increase your damage against the DDs you face. And regardless of what you think, you have to aim off the screen to hit anything at 15km with your arc. So, not feasible.

That's funny. Because you didn't see the big picture. Calculate that over 15 minutes of battles.

Since it's a t6 DD, this is the build I'd go for:

Anti DD build:

PT, LS, SE, CE

BFT, AR, DE, EL.

Anti Cruiser/BB

PT, LS, SE, CE

IFHE, BFT/DE, AR

You can add two signals to increase fire chance even higher, but make sure to equip detonation signals.
