That said, I would take CE over IFHE and never think twice about it. It's not as 'mandatory' as some people like to say, but it's never a bad pick. IFHE is a good skill that benefits most CLs. Sure, she will DPM Tier VI-VII BBs without IFHE just fine, but those VIII-X ones are the problem. She really, really needs it if you want consistent damage. Tier VIII Cleveland will see up to Tier X. She may get away with it due to 15 HE shells flying and setting fires, but fires are RNG. Helena at Tier VII starts feeling that need because she can encounter the heavier armor of Tier VIII-IX BBs. Otherwise her HE will pen most BB armor Tier VII and below. But with IFHE, you can.ĭo remember that some ships like Tier VI+ German BBs are above that standard with 40mm, 50mm decks, so even with 152mm+IFHE, shells falling on such decks will non-pen.ĭallas at Tier VI may get away without IFHE unless it's a Tier VIII BB. 152mm HE without IFHE will non-pen against that. However, against Tier VIII or higher BBs, 32mm is the minimum deck, bow armor for BBs. Normal 152mm HE Penetration: 152mm / 6 = 25.33 or 25mm or armor needed to defeat this HE shell.ġ52mm HE + IFHE Penetration: (152mm / 6) x 1.3 = 32.93 or 33mm of armor needed to defeat this IFHE boosted HE shell.Īgainst BB threats, 152mm guns will penetrate the common 25mm bows, decks, etc. USN CLs really need it, namely the High Tier (VIII-X) ones.
