German cruiser Siegfried, tier IX, Update!

German cruiser Siegfried, tier IX

Siegfried has a very large caliber even within the range of other large cruisers — 380 mm. Despite the fact that the ship has only 6 guns, it is more than enough considering their accuracy, which is an unusual trait for large cruisers.

In addition to that, this German Vessel is equipped with a special Hydroacoustic search, increased penetration HE shells and good armor capable of “tanking” enemy shells.

ST, changes to Siegfried 

posted August 02-19 by WoWS Development!

German cruiser Siegfried, tier IX:

- Secondary battery firing range increased from 5 to 7.6 km;
- Secondary armament reload time lowered from 4 to 3.6 s;

Siegfried has powerful guns that can deal good damage at long ranges due to accuracy and caliber, and the ship's armor layout helps in surviving return fire. The main battery characteristics make it difficult to effectively fight destroyers and lightly armored targets at close range. The changes will allow Siegfried to deal damage at close distance while the main battery is reloading even without skills or upgrades. This will increase the ship's efficiency at close range, supplementing the Hydroacoustic search with 6 km detection range of ships and torpedoes.
