Section 16 of 37

KM CAs

Standard build

  • This build is a standard DPS CA build that maximises concealment for maximum possible engagement control, while also buffing firepower in a reasonable way.
  • You may swap SI for HAP or any other combination of skills that you might find useful. Hindenburg and Roon have 4 repairs by default and may not need the 5th charge.
  • When using this build on Eugen, make sure you pick SI as your first 3-pt skill as she only has 3 repairs and really needs the additional one. If you want a dedicated build for Königsberg or Nürnberg, refer to the Mainz build.
  • Von Jütland is a decent captain for KM CAs due to his improved CS skill.
  • If you don’t have the Spotter mod, use MAM1. If you don’t have the Hydro mod, use ERP.
  • Applies to Yorck, Hipper, Prinz Eugen, Roon, Hindenburg and Clausewitz.

Clausewitz, Hindenburg, Roon

Damage build

  • This build maximises damage output while still retaining some semblance of concealment for engagement control. You will have to play from a longer range compared to the standard build, and won’t be able to control your engagements as well.
  • You can swap conceal for steering if you are fine with being spotted at all times and prefer being on the move.
  • Von Jütland is a decent captain for KM CAs due to his improved GtG.
  • If you don’t have the Spotter mod, use DCSM1. If you don’t have the Hydro mod, use ERP.
