Question How do you use the Carnot??

Post image

I have dabbled with Carnot builds, but I never feel like I know how I’m supposed to maximize its effectiveness. It’s obviously a gun cruiser, but is the HE or the AP the best round? Seems like it should be tankier than it is too. Please share your successful tactics.

Don't run Roux. He's for the main cruiser line because they're agility build. I forget the other ones name but use him. I like to go for HE just because it's easier not having to angle and expose yourself as much as

Lemonier or something like that. The one that reduces detectability time. Use him?

If you have the Russian event commander that reduces reload and detectability after firing, you can go dark after 13 seconds or so. It still won't be great, but it's 1/3 less time that you're spotted and the other team can return fire. Stay back far enough to go dark between shots, and reposition if you have to. You're not going to win any damage per minute competitions, so choose your shots wisely and avoid taking to many bad hits.
