Compared to those on the German battleships and battlecruisers, Rooke’s are fairly average but have increased damage and flood chance. In addition to her main battery, Rooke carries torpedoes in four single launchers, two per side. Players of other lower sigma battleships like VII Lyon should be familiar with the effect this has on dispersion, where some salvos are accurate and others land nowhere near the aim point. This gives her better dispersion than other battleships at her tier, but her lower sigma will result in some inconsistent salvos. She also has decent shell ballistics and fast flight time.Īs with the rest of the line, Rooke uses the large cruiser dispersion found on the German battlecruisers and ships like IX Alaska and VI Graf Spee. Her firing angles are slightly better than most battleships, allowing her to bring all guns to bear while still maintaining a narrower profile. Getting close enough to fight puts her well within range of return fire from the enemy battleships.
Her main battery reload is on the slower end of average, and her 18.2km main battery range is low for the tier. Unlike the main battleship line, neither ammo type is good enough to use exclusively. They also have the same improved fuse time as other British battleships. Her 381mm AP can overmatch up to 26mm plating, which includes the bow and stern of mid tier battleships and non-German or American high tier cruisers. Her HE damage and fire chance are average for a Tier VII battleship, but she lacks both the increased fire chance and penetration of the main battleship line. Rooke carries nine 381mm guns in three triple turrets, the same guns and turrets as found on Tier VIII Monarch. Like Renown, she’s most comfortable out on a flank at mid range, punishing broadsides and creating crossfires while avoiding return fire.
Representing the J3 battlecruiser design, Tier VII Rooke continues the distinctive characteristics of British battlecruisers - high speed, good concealment, improved main battery accuracy, and turning torpedoes, but shorter gun range and lower survivability.
