Anyone have those somewhere or am I thinking of something else that I saw? Other questions, why doesn't the change from the 76.2mm DP guns to the 120mm guns change the artillery rating like it does the AA rating? Also, why does it say 76.2mm in one spot and 80mm right next to it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudder shift time goes from 8.6s to 5.7s while keeping the same turn radius. Torpedoes go from 6km at 63 knots to 10km at 59 knots. Furutaka is love, Furutaka is life.

Why buff it I love furutaka as it is. I know I'm in the minority but I think it just requires a different playstyle. Different playstyle, yes, but it really is underpowered when compared to it's competition. So these buffs will still need that different playstyle, but not be weaker statistically speaking at the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's when it faces higher tiers it really becomes annoying. These buffs might make it a bit of a seal clubber. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
