Destroyer Guide for World of Warships

It is not only crucial that you command a destroyer as a captain, but also which nation you choose.

• Generally, you should avoid planes and cruisers, as they can decloak your ship and make it an easy target.
• Invest in your captain's training, cloaking technology and general ship improvements to increase your destroyer's visibility scores.
• Keep in mind that cloaking your destroyer will cost you 8.000 credits - this investment is necessary until you reach the Tier 5 skill Camouflage Master of your captain.
• Rely on the speed of your destroyer to attack enemies from behind or to target unprotected carriers - this way you weaken the enemy fleet permanently.
• Be a team player. In World of Warships not only your own kills count, but those of your team. Therefore, you should take on the task of unseeing the enemy fleet.

Which nation is right for you?

You can choose between a Japanese, a Russian and an American destroyer in the game. With the Japanese destroyer, you mainly act covertly and reconnaissance is the focus. If you prefer to make active kills, then the American destroyers are the best choice. As a Russian destroyer you have speed and torpedoes on your side for this.
