Kidd

Kidd captain build for World of Warships

  • Tier 8 US DD that trades a torp rack for a heal. Very tanky compared to other DDs, though her poor torpedo firepower is a problem when fighting larger ships
    • USS Kidd currently resides in Baton Rouge, Louisiana as a museum ship
  • Uses the gunboat DD build, but slightly modified to give more utility
    • Can trade 2pt Consumable Enhancement for DE if you want more literal firepower, note that your fires/min isn’t great even if you take all the fire chance improvements
    • RPF is fine if you want to build towards anti-DD. In this case, trade 3pt gun reload and Consumable Enhancement
    • FB is ok, but less recommended as you want to use smoke or take short fights to offset your slow shells.
    • If you don’t have Engine boost mod, use ERP
  • Kidd uses a close range gunboat playstyle, gunning down DDs and patching up any damage with heal. Smoke can be used to farm larger ships, or used on your allies so they can farm damage while you get combat scout medals.
