Which special upgrades to get from the clash event?

[Silvin]

I am already giving up in the 2K doubloons from the clash event so I will pick up a couple special upgrades instead.

 

I am not sure which ones are the most useful though. I have US ships of all classes up to tier 10 (except for the Essex CV still at tier 9) so these upgrades would go on higher tier ships.

 

Do you have recommendations on which special upgrades are the most useful?

 

Thanks!

Radar is awesome, brings your radar duration up to almost a whole minute. Smoke is not worth the trade-off IMO, but I will get it anyways just for Perth. DF is also nice if you want an AA build. Just try to avoid the ones with big trade-offs, you are already sacrificing an upgrade slot for the special upgrade so you better love it.

Speed boost is the most universally-useful one.

This.

 

All other upgrades range from meh to terrible, to be honest. Maybe they'll get re-balanced in the future though.

I am picking the premium time to upgrade my leveling up speed...

I've already gotten speed boost (I'm starting to wish I hadn't sold all the other upgrades I got from SCs, starting to find uses for em)...
