ES CAs (Castilla Line)

Section 38 of 38

ES CAs (Castilla Line)

  • Spanish CA mid-long range kiting cruiser with a unique burst fire mechanic, firing guns twice per salvo in exchange for a long reload penalty. Extremely potent when used properly, but careless use will lower overall damage output and leave you defenseless in worst case scenarios. Otherwise fairly standard CA gameplay
  • This build is a standard DPS CA build, adapted for ES CAs, that maximises concealment for maximum possible engagement control, while also buffing firepower in a reasonable way.
    • If you feel like you need warning when being shot at, swap GtG for IFA.
    • If you don’t have the Spotter mod, use MAM1.
    • If you don’t have the Hydro mod, use ERP.
  • Castilla plays similarly to other damage farming kiting cruisers like Hindenberg and Zao. Stay at mid-range, out HP trade the enemy, and move in once nothing is left to stop you. Burst fire trades DPM for immediate firepower, useful for several situations like: About to disengage, about to die, shooting 2 salvoes of AP into a broadside cruiser, shooting a low health ship before he goes dark, etc.
  • Applies to Jupiter, MĂ©ndez NĂșñez, Navarra, Almirante Cervera, Galicia, Baleares, Asturias, Cataluña, Numancia, AndalucĂ­a, Almirante Oquendo and Castilla.
