Both Beauty and Beast
She’s the stuff legends are made of. Immensely armed and armored, she’s the pinnacle of battleships. Her long range and massive health pool bullies the enemy into submission. Every facet of her enormity screams, “WAR!”
Learn the history behind this incredible ship by watching Naval Legends: Yamato.
Make Them Count
She’s got a range of 26.6km and hits like a small meteoroid. When you hit the enemy, they’ll know it. Each AP shell deals a maximum of 14,800 damage and her HE payload explodes for 7,300 max damage. Use her range and don’t close in on the enemy until it’s to your advantage. That being said, your reload time is 30 seconds so staying at max range isn’t always the best idea. The longer the shot, the greater your shell dispersion. Find your sweet spot!
Round and Round
One thing that all battleships suffer from, to some extent, is a slow turret speed. Yamato takes 72 seconds to turn her turrets 180 degrees (translation: a crazy long time). Be mindful of keeping your guns trained toward the enemy when plotting your course and you’ll do just fine. In some cases, it may actually be faster to turn your entire ship rather than moving your guns alone. There’s a certain grace that comes from moving and planning so ponderously.
Nigh Invincible
Nigh, very [expletive] nigh. If you’re playing to Yamato’s long-range strengths, then your early threats include two things: torpedo bombers and sneaky destroyers. Keep an eye on the minimap for potential threats. Don’t ignore the fact that the enemy destroyer just went behind an island and hasn’t been seen for the last minute. His mission is to take out the enemy’s strongest ship — you! Start maneuvering to evade potential torpedo attacks, even if you haven’t yet seen the torpedoes!
