This ship cant compete with Yoshino. Yoshino AP pen is lot better at all ranges and HE on Yoshino is a lot stronger. This ship is on its own. My opinion is that would be a good ship if Yodo wasnt so big and easy to hit. This line is forgetablle.

[@waffle3632]

No, yoshino is in another league compared to this thing. Way more damage per salvo, good HE and AP. It also has a choice of 12km or 20km torps.

[@a_stone]

@@veritas4887 Fuckin' 4 flak from 18 150mm DP guns. Absolute bullshit. They're so scared of making a ship with enough AA to fuck up a strike because they don't want their precious carrier babies crying too much from having to actually think while playing.

[@i_nameless_i-jgsdf]

Onet thing you forgot to mention is the turrets have 360 degree rotation same as Takahashi and maybe also the Shimanto since it has the same guns. Even the Gokase turrets are 360 degree but only for two turrets. On top of that the , at least for the 150 mm gun the turrets are fast so zig zagging with the Yodo is very comfortable because the turrets will already be on target before your ship even turn completely.

[@Shuraigekisen]

As a minotaur main, survivability is secondary if you're made of paper, paper armor just means you're a ticking bomb waiting for the lucky shot. Instead of delaying the fuze, I personally follow the doctrine of "making the most of what I have", so improving things where the ship performs well or have an ace up my sleeve (nobody expects a minotaur torpedo dealing 20k damage), in this case, probably going for stealth and torpedo first, then IFHE would be counter productive since you'd want to start a few fires then disengage and let the target burn/flood, yes you got many guns so it's just a matter of time until you start a fire, but the longer your guns are blazing, the more time you take on your fuze, or more literally, the more occasions you give to your opponents to absolutely demolish you. So either I'd pick Demolition Expert then take other skills for kiting, or alternatively, take more risks and use your 10km concealment to dive a flank and get your torpedoes off, the problem with that is you need relatively good intel and estimation on the enemies' positions to not just get spotted and dev struck, though that's a risk every flanker with no armor basically signs up for. In that case the only other factor you can't really control is cv, but at the same time, because of your oddball position, investing in guns will completely void your purpose of creating a crossfire with your type 93 torpedoes and doing this until all the major threats are down, so basically all BBs and Sevastopol (the only cruiser I know that can overmatch 25mm), once the main threat is gone or basically gone, you can start raining down hellfire on other cruisers that have 30mm of coating or less, those that have more, it's just the usual drill of finding their brodside and firing AP at it, yes the AP got reduced damage, but it's still 18 shells, 6 of them bullseyeing will give you enough of a headstart to kill them with HE if needed. The only problem with that plan is as stated CVs, and for that the only solution I have is either abort the plan, or if you really like playing with fire, taking the AA skills and DFAA, with the flanking maneuver torps are less likely to be coming your way unless you get RPF'ed so you can forget hydro, but if an enemy DD is that hellbent on finding you specifically, that's a free cap for your DD so mission accomplished I guess? Anyway with only 10km concealment you won't be surprising anyone if it is your flank collapsing, so having DFAA and investing into torps means that you can somewhat limit the enemy CV's spotting, reducing the number of dice rolls you make to know whether or not your time to explode has come, and since the flank is collapsing, you won't get reliable spotting on the enemy to engage when they can't retaliate, so you'll just be dumping torps most of the time until you either get reinforcements, or reach the other flank. Those builds are just pure theorycrafting from a Minotaur captain that only played the Gokase so far, so take those with a grain of salt.

[@hond654]

@@hond654 yes please, dots more often haha

[@gianmarcodacol1820]

Siegfried also can overmatch 25 mm

[@waffle3632]

I think your advice is pretty spot on. I noticed it plays more like a zoner, being able to zone targets away from a flank with torps and HE spam then goes dark if you take too much fire. I play it like Jinan without a smoke. I see a push from the enemy I send all my torps in that direction then HE spam the target once my torps get close. Then I disengage and repeat. The manuverabulity of this cruiser is poor so map awareness is very important. You usually want to HE spam at 15-18km to avoid getting dev struck. You are the largest light cruiser in the game so far so engaging any closer is very risky.

[@i_nameless_i-jgsdf]

Btw i also love the IJN Omono, the main reason is because i think that ship is beautiful and it is also based on the historical ship IJN Oyodo. It has the 155 mm gun but nerfed version of the Mogami 155, but it is still good, you just need to always have cover if you want to starting an engagement, and farm with decent HE alpha damage. Another thing is the ship is fairy short and narrow so you are a smaller target than the tier 8, 9 and 10 cruisers.

[@raginasiangaming910]

The Yodo line was a very pleasant surprise for me. It's a very trolly boat. Dart in, drop your torps, fire a few 18 round salvos and start fires as you run away and then disappear. Rinse and repeat. If a DD shows himself, ruin his day. However, I also played a lot of rudder shifting Minotaur, so I'm used to this playstyle. Very fun if you're into that.

[@gyrene_asea4133]

Useful quick look at the apex of the IJN CL line, thanks. Regards camos and the Art Dept, I think the pinnacle of taste for the IJN was the Sea-Turtle Camo they gave the Katori. Ship even at tier IV (?) is kinda crap, but that camo is flat out beautiful.

[@zontarr22-zon]

I like the new Japanese light cruiser line from tier 6 and 7 , I assume tier 8 is nicer but 6 and 7 are awesome, fires starters and great damage and the torps are omg 😱

[@lunsmann]

I loved the T6 (Gokase) - played it a lot in randoms, did well in it. Hated the T7 (Omono - or is that O-No-No). Played it a lot, did not enjoy it at all. The biggest fault is the SLOOOOW turret rotation. As well as the abysmal 15 second reload time. I have the T8 now (Shimanto), playing it a lot in random operations where it has been quite solid. The very fast turret rotation (all 360 degree variants) makes the ship very comfortable to play, so comfortable that the slow reload is rarely an issue for me. Keep the boat turning to dodge the incoming shells with rudder module upgrades (slot 4).

[@zontarr22-zon]

@@lunsmann Yeah, true about turret travers on Omodo but I got use to it, I am used to rudder left-right a lot so to compensate for turrets, I did not notice the reload time being a prob, I like the engine to full speed is really good back or forward and for a change the torp angles are much better than the other cruiser line. I researched the tier 8 last night Shimanto and also last night by MAJOR LUCK and the power of Sun Tzu i got the PRIME random drop the new tier 9 BB the Sun Yat-Sen from all :)

[@Bohdisattva326]

“Do or do not. There is no try “😂

[@SuperCrazf]

For my experience it’s a mix of Zao and Gibraltar. Like Zao you just shoot every now and then, only shooting when nobody is looking at you and stop shooting once people start aiming at you, making use of your concealment. Good thing your turrets turn very quickly and the angles are better than I expected, its very workable. Unlike Zao your armor is not enough to do lucky bounces. Like Gibraltar, you follow destroyers everywhere and help them kill other destroyers, your 18 shell salvo absolutely kills destroyers or at least permanently cripples them. Use islands to stay in cover, always move, use torps to keep other ships at bay and you only push with other ships and only if you are winning, otherwise just kite and wait for the comeback or to die/lose. Biggest downside of this ship is how hard it can be to be impactful with it. At least the AA (with DFAA) is good enough to make carriers upset.

[@CoffeeFiend1]

I like how the "Light Cruiser" has more health than Zao does.

[@sameerkharade7750]

Exactly. I also like how the 'light' cruiser has more base range than most of the heavy cruisers's base range.

[@Virgilfinnatell]

And yet it still isn’t enough to save the ship from being junk

[@CoffeeFiend1]

@@Virgilfinnatell True but raw health can be good for tanking a lot of heal-able damage like fire and just incremental chip damage. This is something the Japanese heavy cruisers have always suffered with in that they're decently armored but they have low health. It's one reason why Yoshino and Azuma are so tanky in the right contexts because not only can they have health into the 60k's but they can also have 5 heals which is generally unheard of on cruisers. Yeah they hate pens but they can tank a lot of smaller stuff, in some cases more than their "heavier" or more capital class brethren.

[@1nicevids]

Small gameplay critique, but I notice you tend to hold your shots too long and have quite a number of target selection hesitancy. Also a lot of tunnel visioning in the torpedo angle view. Particular the moment from 17:54 had me waving frantically at the monitor. Why aren't you shooting that Z-46 more urgently at an easy 10km range? (Ironically as you mention how capable it is at blapping a chunk of health from a DD earlier) You look at him once, and then turned back to the Satsuma as if "yea satsuma is still the more important target that I won't be killing for another 2 minutes". Your kitakaze's death partially went to waste because you only decided to shoot the Z-46 once while he committed to gunning it until he died. Within a span of time, you could have fired 3-4 salvos and blindfire some more because he's grounded. With your shell volume, it would be highly effective. (A video about blindfiring last known positions would be a worthwhile idea - a highly valuable skill to learn) Felt like hardly any attempt was made there to bother stopping that cap when this ship should've annihilated the Z.

[@solidtoto]

I'll grind it, but from the stats alone i'd say it needs a rudder and shell velocity buff.

[@a_stone]

100%. They're fun ships to play but you struggle to do a lot of damage because you lack quite a bit of DPM and with how fragile they are you really need to have rudder shift to dodge stuff. Went from Gokase to Shimanto today and I'm not impressed. They release the USN hybrid BB line it's broken state but they released an entire line that's done better by the Pan-Asia cruisers.

[@i_nameless_i-jgsdf]

Their shells are already very fast at over 900 m/s, but their shells are very light at about 40 kg and that is why the shells start to float above 16 km range.

[@aesirgaming1014]

I think this line is underrated by a lot of people. It is a pretty versatile ship. She has 18 guns with a decent fire chance and great range for a CL. Her torpedoes are slow, but they hit like a truck and, like the Yoshino, for some reason it seems that people just wander into them. Her AA is quite solid as well, maybe not an elite AA boat, but very serviceable and should rack you up a decent number of planes if the enemy CV decides to fly around you. I don't see her being great at CB's (too fragile, can't participate in or defend against a push), but she should be a really nice all around CL for randoms. The major downside with her is survivability...but you could say that about just about any CL out there so I can't count that against the ship so much as against the class. In my opinion, her guns contribute to her survivability, since she doesn't have to be up close like some of the other CL's out there (Mino). She can play very nicely at 15-18km, which makes her less likely to get focused than, say, a Mino playing at 14-15km. On a ranged build, she can go out to what, 21km+? At that point your biggest fear is a random shell from a German BB. I swear, German BB's are the bane of a CL's existence...for some reason there is always that one, stray, random shell that German dispersions itself into your citadel.

[@Airborne_all_the_way718]

can always count on you for up to date answers to my questions, awsome work captain 😊

[@i_nameless_i-jgsdf]

So far i liked it, more than i did with the Takahashi because of improved RoF, HE damage, more range, faster torp with faster reload. I also always build my IJN cruisers for dodging so i choose rudder shift time over concealment if the rudder shift time is above 6 second otherwise i take concealment because 6 second and below is quick enough to dodge shells. Rudder shift time is very important for these thinly armored cruisers, your manuevablity is your armor, if they cant hit you then you wont take damage! Edit: Forgot to mention the AA defense is actually very useful, they can actually clean the sky! I once played the Takahashi and got a CV player complaining how OP flank this thing was 🤣, granted i had Adrenaline rush and i had less than 50% HP so it incledribly boosted the AA defense even further.

[@_Thred_]

One thing people forget to mention about these ships is the almost 7km (6.9km) AA

[@Mitch-BladeCaptain]

I'm working on the Takahashi now, heading to Yodo. And honestly I like it. That being said, I'm not a BB fan, and there by not normally a Heavy Cruiser fan. But I'm looking forward to playing with those 18 guns. Heck, I love Atlanta, even though shes got problems. so Yodo just might make my day when I get her.

[@357Striker]

110mm citadel hold up that means a thunderer can citadel that with a HE shell?

[@jaturnley]

Honestly, as a torp boat Takahashi is a better ship. It's a lot shorter, so it turns a lot better, and the torps aren't appreciably worse than Yodo's. You can get both sides into arc a lot more often and closer together on Taka, and that more than makes up for the slightly longer reload times. Given the Yodo's crap aft turret angles, having one less doesn't really mean you will have fewer rifles at any given moment either, and the fore turret config is actually better IMO because the oddball turret 2 comes into play a lot easier than the oddball turret 3 on Yodo.

[@IceQueenNL]

totally agree. I really love the tier 8 and 9, but don't like the Yodo, I don't play very good with the Yodo while I try to play it the same, set fires from distance and go dark and spam torps at incoming enemies. Normally tier 10 ships are quite much better than the tier 9, but in this case it's the other way around imo.

Personally, the clean camos are one of the things I like about the line. They need a reload buff, as the shells are so lackluster, and it is weird having turrets that can turn twice as fast as you reload.

[@brianhoyt2469]

I went with a torp build and have reload down to 76sec with 27330 dmg and then prioritized main battery reload around 11.5 sec and IFHE. The Shimanto is sadly a massive disappointment between the long reload, gun angles, and lack of a heal. The only thing that’s still kinda bad or not improved as I’d like with Yodo is the fire angles and main battery reload time. Lesser gripe possibly is her rather big turning radius.

Now I used it and test it with 10 battles each on both Yodo and Zao. I would say it’s barely any difference between them. And I use Light House build on both ships to make it fair. Yodo performance is quite slightly better compare to Zao. Yes, Zao is heavy hitting but Yodo has better flexibility compare to Zao. Remember how bad the Zao is for me is Turret Terverse. Yodo don’t have that issue combine with 360 terverse on the front turrets. But Zao has better speed. But both major of this is depends on personal choice. So I prefer Yodo over Zao interms of mobility. But if you alrd have Zao, I would to say just keep the Zao hence Yodo doesn’t do much of a difference plus she is very squishy, which is Zao has better absorbing hits. But Yodo do have that insane volley of firepower. It can delete DDs with 18 150mm HE shells. Zao does have better offensive ability while Yodo has more of an Assassin class if you compare to Zao as a Warrior class

All games right now really suck because of the Perma Spotting Meta. You will be spotted and obliterated. Stay about 10km outside of caps and just keep throwing torps at contested flags. They have an OK reload time, and usually after you get all four sets out it leaves you enough time to reset and do it again.

Honestly Yodo just feels like it’s trying to hard with tools it doesn’t have. You’re better served playing a Henri over Yoda, Better maneuverability, shell performance, and it’s got mbrb with more range and far better guns. Sure it’s a heavy cruiser compared to a light cruiser but Yodo feels nothing like a light cruiser. It feels like they stuck lots of small guns on a yoshino and gave it a worse turning circle than Yamato just to add insult to injury. Weegee over tuned them balance wise just because of gun volume but didn’t take into account the slow shells and how poor the dpm is. 1 or 2 second reload buff or better shell ballistics or 30mm hull plating would make it more appealing. Really requires spotting so it can spam from max range or behind islands. Overall I’d rather play Henri because it’s just hand down better at kiting a flank and spamming from range.

I met him in a swamp down in Dagobah Where it bubbles all the time like a giant carbonated soda S-O-D-A, soda I saw the little runt sitting there on a log I asked him his name and in a raspy voice he said "Yoda" Y-O-D-A, Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda Well, I've been around, but I ain't never seen A guy who looks like a muppet, but he's wrinkled and green Oh, my Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda Well, I'm not dumb, but I can't understand How he can lift me in the air just by raising his hand Oh, my Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda Well, I left home just a week before And I've never ever been a Jedi before But Obi Wan, he set me straight, of course He said, "Go to Yoda and he'll show you the Force" Well, I'm not the kind that would argue with Ben So it looks like I'm gonna start all over again With my Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda So I used the Force I picked up a box I lifted some rocks While I stood on my head Well, I won't forget what Yoda said He said, "Luke, stay away from the darker side" "If you start to go astray, let the Force be your guide" Oh, my Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda "I know Darth Vader's really got you annoyed" "But remember, if you kill him, then you'll be unemployed" Oh, my Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda Well, I heard my friends really got in a mess So I'm gonna have to leave Yoda I guess But I know that I'll be coming back some day I'll be playing this part 'til I'm old and gray The long-term contract I had to sign Says I'll be making these movies 'til the end of time With my Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda
