Pan-EU BB Thor Line - Standard Captain Build
- Utility BB line with powerful long-range torpedoes, a toggle engine boost, and 10km radar starting at Tier VIII. Their small HP pool isn’t great for tanking compared to other BBs.
- Standard tank build, though Brisk is highly recommended given their excellent concealment and use of speed boost.
- Pan-EU BB speed boost mechanics (similar to Sibir’s heal):
- Very big speed boost of 20%/25%.
- Can be turned on and off, with a minimum use time per activation and a cooldown between uses.
- Limited total duration with no way to increase the consumable action time.
- Pan-EU BB line can be played similarly to kiting cruisers: stay at range, punish broadside ships with AP, and launch torps to catch unaware DDs.
- In the mid-to-late game, radar becomes a powerful tool for running down DDs or zoning them away so they can’t torp you easily.
- Thor can also be used for yolo torp rushes where her powerful torpedo salvo can one-shot other ships during high-speed drive-bys.
- Applies to Yavuz Sultan Selim, Tegetthoff, Laudon, Chios, Enlighten, Gustav den Store, and Thor.
