Azuma / Yoshino - Standard Captain Build
- Yoshino is a long-range damage kiting cruiser. Powerful HE salvos, high HP, and 20km torps make her easy to play. Though be aware of her vulnerable citadel and poor maneuverability.
- Tier IX Azuma is very similar, but trades her torps for a fast-reloading heal instead.
- This build is for players who prefer to fight closer up to get better AP salvos or strikes on DDs, or don’t feel comfortable with giving up concealment.
- You can share builds with Zaō if you don’t want a dedicated captain.
- Using the 20km torps on Yoshino is the preferred option simply because you’re playing at mid to long range most of the time, and they can be solid for area denial or hitting the occasional unexpected torp on unsuspecting enemy BBs.
- If you don’t have the Spotter mod, use MAM1. If you don’t have the Hydro mod, use ERP.
