We’re applying balance changes to the following ships based on an analysis of both their combat statistics as well as player feedback: researchable German and Italian destroyers, Siliwangi, Udaloi, Harbin, Jinan, Leander, Marlborough, Champagne, Ryujo, Bearn, and United States. The Depth Charge Airstrike parameters for all ships have been unified.
V Maestrale:
- Maximum damage of researchable torpedoes reduced: 9,067 to 8,600
- Chance to cause flooding reduced: 145% to 136%.
- Torpedo tube reload time increased: 75 to 80 s
- Main battery reload time increased: 5.5 to 5.8 s
VI Aviere:
- Stock torpedo damage reduced: 9,067 to 8,600
- Chance to cause flooding reduced: 145% to 136%.
- Torpedo tube reload time increased: 75 to 80 s.
- Main battery reload time increased: 6.5 to 6.8 s
IX Adriatico:
- Main battery reload time reduced: 6 to 5.7 s
VII Z-31, VIII Gustav-Julius Maerker, IX Felix Schultz, X Elbing
- Maximum HE shell damage increased: 1,700 to 1,800
- Chance to cause fire increased: 8% to 12%.
VIII Siliwangi:
- Main battery reload time reduced: 5 to 4.8 s
- Torpedo tube reload time reduced: 128 to 120 s
IX Udaloi:
- The detectability of the stock hull is now similar to that of the researchable one:
- Surface detectability range increased: 8.3 to 8.9 km.
- Detectability after firing in smoke increased: 3.3 to 3.6 km.
VIII Harbin:
- Added the Repair Party consumable.
X Jinan:
- The main battery reload time has been reduced: 3.5 to 3.2 s.
VI Leander:
- Main battery reload time increased: 8 to 8.5 s.
- Reload time of the researchable torpedo tubes increased: 96 to 101 s.
- Reload time of the stock torpedo tubes reduced: 106 to 101 s.
IX Marlborough:
- Main battery sigma parameter increased: 1.4 to 1.45.
VIII Champagne:
- HP increased: 52,600 to 60,900
VI Ryūjō:
- Researchable torpedo bombers:
- Maximum torpedo damage reduced: 6,500 to 6,067
- Chance to cause flooding reduced: 36% to 34%.
VI Béarn:
- Skip bombers:
- HE bomb damage reduced: 6,100 to 5,800
- Chance to cause fire reduced: 35% to 33%.
United States:
- Preparation time for a tactical torpedo bomber flight increased: 195 to 205 s.
Depth charge Airstrike stat changes
The Depth charge Airstrike parameters have been unified for all cruisers and battleships:
| Tier | Depth Charge Damage | Number of Depth Charges | Number of Uses | Cooldown Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| V | 3,400 | 1 | 1 | 30 |
| VI | 3,400 | 1 | 1 | 30 |
| VII | 3,400 | 1 | 2 | 30 |
| VIII | 4,200 | 2 | 2 | 30 |
| IX | 4,200 | 2 | 2 | 30 |
| X | 4,900 | 2 | 2 | 30 |
| Superships | 4,900 | 2 | 2 | 30 |
