Surrey also comes equipped with a spotting aircraft, which can be used to temporarily extend the range of her main battery. Should the opportunity present itself, shoot at the upper belt armor of enemy battleships when they expose their sides - do not aim for the waterline, as your shells will shatter, dealing zero damage, and you will have given your position away for no gain. When given the broadside of enemy cruisers, aim for the waterline and try to land as many citadel hits as possible. While her HE is good, her armor-piercing ammunition is also serviceable. Destroyers will take enormous hits from well-aimed high explosive salvos, but it may require more lead than expected to land hits. Captains should aim for the decks and superstructures of battleships and the bows or upper belt armor of enemy cruisers and aircraft carriers. They are similar to Japanese high explosive shells having high alpha damage for a cruiser, but with improved fire chance. The preferred shell type of Surrey is high explosive (HE) a trait of the branch. Since the ship has a longer range, it will take longer for shells to reach maximum range captains are advised to focus their fire on slower, less maneuverable targets such as battleships and aircraft carriers at long range, or refrain from firing to avoid detection. Surrey still fires the same shells as Devonshire, and therefore she retains the same low shell velocity for a heavy cruiser. The most noticeable and welcome change is the performance of her main battery, which features an improved rate of fire, longer firing range, and slightly better accuracy. In World of Warships, captains will immediately notice just how much of an improvement she really is.
This ship is representative of the Norfolk class heavy cruisers, only two of which were built and entered service. The two vessels share many common traits, but Surrey is an improvement in almost every regard.
Surrey is a natural successor to Devonshire one tier lower. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.įor a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS".
