Yimeng
Section 23 of 31
Yimeng
- Yimeng is a close range Soviet-style BB with improved secondaries and a unique anti-torpedo gimmick. Close range menace with her secondaries and resilience against torpedo attacks, but lack of overmatch on her small main guns can be an issue when fighting angled targets
- Yimeng represents a variant of the Soviet Project A battleship project, similar to Vladivostok in-game
- Yimeng uses a custom secondary BB build to take advantage of her long lasting repair party, providing a good balance of secondaries and survivability
- Long lasting repair party alleviates the need for FP, though itβs a useful alternative if the player prefers more survivability. Trade IRPR in this case
- For more firepower, you can trade IRPR and Emergency Repair Specialist for Manual secondaries, though this significantly reduces your survivability
- Yimeng performs best under 11.3km, using her secondaries to brawl enemies while her 356mm guns punish any broadsides. Use Torpedo Defense System to shrug off torp dev strikes while the heavy repair party keeps your HP high.
- TDS consumable lasts for 5s and lowers damage by 70%, while 8 Yugumo torps wonβt kill you, it will still take ~40k off your HP pool. TDS is not a substitute for dodging
- Note her AP has 50-65Β° pen angle, similar to Petropavlovsk
