Changes to Test ships – Closed Test 12.5

Based on testing results, we’re applying changes to some of the Spanish cruisers, Schill, Lüshun, and Dmitry Pozharsky.

 

German cruiser Schill, Tier VIII 

  • The "Spotting Aircraft" consumable was added to the same slot as the "Fighter" consumable.
  • Torpedo range increased: 6 to 10 km.

Pan-Asian destroyer Lüshun, Tier X

  • The "Torpedo Reload Booster" consumable has been replaced with the "Repair Party" consumable.
  • Main battery reload time reduced: 4 to 3.4 s.
  • Standard torpedoes replaced with deep-water torpedoes.
  • Torpedo range increased: 10 to 11 km.

We decided to change the concept of Lüshun, making her more versatile by shifting the focus to the main battery, as well as giving her better survivability.
