122 [WOLF9] S7CentNickel Members 594 posts Report post #1 Posted May 18, 2020 Just got my Gearing and can afford one Tier 9 DD. Which one, Ostergotland or Yugumo? I'm thinking Oster but have had the Yugumo unlocked for long time, maybe its finally time. Thoughts on either because I don't see much talk on either of them, other than the Yugumo got nerfed big time a while back. Thanks in advance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Get both and torp spam your way to greatness Just avoid CV games Note: Reload Booster on Yugumo of course o7 Edited May 18, 2020 by Commander_367 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
23 [KSC] Siberian_Dog Members 15 posts 11,367 battles Report post #4 Posted May 18, 2020 Oster it's a good choice if u like multi-role dd's , u have good AA, good concealment, a good repair party, nice (but slow) main guns that are great dealing with destroyers and causin' fires, and torps do not deal great damage but have a fast reload and deal flood almost every time so u can light them up with fires after they used their damage control consumable. on the other hand, yugumo torp's have a devastating damage and the ship have excelent concealment, also u earn smoke to escape akward situations. the guns deal high damage for a dd and have really good sigma, but long reload. Personally: I would choose oster because u can deal with problems that the yugumo cannot face (like carriers, hunting other destroyers or healing damage) but u have to play "safer" sometimes thanks to the lack of smoke, but it all depends on your play style captain! o7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4,189 [O_O] desmo_2 Members 7,530 posts 19,730 battles Report post #9 Posted May 18, 2020 Yugumo is still a solid, albeit torpedo reliant, destroyer. Spec for concealment, turn off your AA in games with CV's unless detected by air, and equip Torpedo Reload Boost for max torpedo blapment. Yugumo is still the "T9 ghost". Launch two spreads, hit TRB, launch two more spreads seconds later for devastating effect. Get detected, however, and you better run your ashes off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now considering I dont like tier 9 or high tier DD play, the Kitakaze in game experiance was tolerable... I gave me what I needed to secure a Campaign mission. I am no authority on high tier DD play... At least for me, I liked the Kitakaze. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am no authority on high tier DD play... At least for me, I liked the Kitakaze. Kita is great. Awesome detection for a gunboat DD and doesn't eat BB pens like Harugumo. Considering the balance state of other T9 DDs Kita is generally regarded as being a bit overpowered. Edited May 19, 2020 by ksix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
