KM (German) universal-type DDs

Contesting build

• This build maximises German DDs’ hydro + smoke combo in order to win games by controlling objectives.
• If you don’t have the Engine boost mod, use ERP. Note: the Hydro mod is not used because it increases the desync between the smoke and hydro action time and cooldown, which is something you don’t want, so you are better off having more engine boost uptime for better dodging and repositioning.
• Applies to V-25, G-101, V-170, T-22, Gaede, T-61, Maass, Z-39, Z-23, Z-35, Z-46 and Z-52.

KM universal-type DDs

Balanced build

• This build makes use of KM DDs’ decent ballistics and high HE pen in order to enable them to deal more damage to larger enemy ships, while retaining their great contesting ability.
• If you don’t have the Engine boost mod, use ERP.
• Jütland is decent for this build because of his improved Consumable Specialist skill.
