France MN DD Cassard Line - Standard Captain Build
- Torpedo-focused French destroyer line featuring long-range torpedoes whose damage scales higher the closer they are to the target. Inherits unique French special hull saturation mechanics, but lacks a Smoke Generator.
- This build maximizes the primary strength of these destroyers—their torpedo armament—while maintaining sufficient main battery performance for self-defense.
- Jean-Jacques Honoré is a solid commander choice due to his improved Adrenaline Rush (AR) skill. Philippe Auboyneau is exceptional due to his improved Survivability Expert (SE) skill and capture/defend talent triggers.
- Engine Boost Modification 1 is practically mandatory for Slot 2. If you do not have Engine Boost Modification 1, use Engine Room Protection (ERP).
- Applies to L'Adroit, Duchaffault, Le Hardi, L'Aventurier, Orage, and Cassard.
