We are adjusting the parameters of some ships before they begin testing. The changes will be applied to Tashkent ’41 and Almirante Grau. We are also ready to share the initial characteristics of Tashkent ’41.
Pan-American cruiser Almirante Grau, Tier VIII
- Main battery reload time increased: 4.5 to 7 s.
- Changes to Combat Instructions:
- Bonus to reload time increased: 20% to 66% faster
- Removed bonuses to ship speed and acceleration rate
- Duration reduced: 60 to 30 s.
- The Combat Instructions meter now fills by 10% every 5 seconds the ship remains undetected
- The progress bar starts to decay 30 seconds after being detected by the enemy
- Decay rate: 10% for every 5 seconds the ship remains detected
The gameplay concept for Almirante Grau rests on her guns and good concealment values. The updated Combat Instructions will better suit this concept. However, in order to balance them out, the ship’s standard main battery reload time was increased.
Soviet destroyer Tashkent ‘41, Tier VII
- Added a Smoke Generator consumable with similar characteristics as the one already present on Soviet Tier VII destroyers
We are also ready to share a stat breakdown of the ship:
