I believe that many commanders have worried about the golden "high-performance steering gear" in the warehouse when they were opening up the big world or reaching a difficult goal. The attributes of this thing look really good, with added durability and mobility, but who should be put on it to maximize its effectiveness? Don’t worry, let’s talk about this issue that has caused countless players to struggle today, and help you put this precious equipment to good use.
If you have destroyers like Shimakaze and Yukikaze on hand, a high-performanceservois almost their graduation outfit. Destroyers are inherently squishy and rely on high maneuverability to "dance" to dodge shells, and this piece of equipment maximizes both durability and maneuverability. After installing it, you will find that the destroyer that was originally easily killed suddenly in picture 13 can now stably withstand the straddle fire of the battleship, and its survivability has directly improved to a big level.
Especially in the high-pressure environment of the big world, the boss's barrages are so dense that it makes people's scalp numb. At this time, the extra durability provided by the high-performance steering gear is equivalent to giving the destroyer a second life. You can think of it as adding a "fault-tolerant insurance" to the crispy output players, so that when they are dancing on the tip of the knife, they will not sink directly if they make a positioning mistake, and can safely maximize their output.
Many people will think that light cruisers are naturally more powerful than destroyers and do not need this thing, but this is not the case. Light cruisers specialized in air defense such as San Diego Kai and Seattle have first-class air defense capabilities, but their durability is actually very average. When they are placed in the third position to sustain injuries, a high-performanceservocan make the originally tight survival line much easier, allowing them to continue to fire output while withstanding the pressure.
In addition, some lightning strike cruisers that need to go to the front row for output, such as Noshiro, also rely heavily on this equipment. They need to get close to the enemy to lay mines, so they are naturally more susceptible to damage. Equipping them with high-performanceservos, coupled with their own high mobility attributes, can make the front row's advancement rhythm more stable, and prevent their health from bottoming out due to an unexpected bombardment, which will affect the overall map push rhythm.
There may be commanders who want to give all the good things to the big brother in the front row, such as installing servos on super cruisers or heavy cruisers like Azuma and Egil. Although they appear to be more fleshy, in fact, these ships are inherently tough, and what they need more is exclusive equipment that can increase their output or upper limit of survival. For example, the maneuverability provided by the servo is not very profitable for heavy cruisers with very low basic maneuverability. It is better to give them a high-performance fire control or a small beaver squadron badge.

And the equipment slots for heavy patrols are very valuable. They usually need to bring a dedicated ammo chain or maintenance tool to ensure survival, and another slot is often reserved for output equipment. If a high-performance servo is forcibly inserted, it will lead to insufficient output, prolong the combat time, and indirectly increase the survival pressure of the entire team. Therefore, unless you want to use the heavy patrol as the damage-bearing position in an extremely high-pressure environment, it is better to leave the steering gear to those who need it more.
When allocating equipment, the logic of the road squadron and the boss team is completely different. The battle in the road takes a long time and the enemies are mixed, so the front row needs to have strong continuous combat capabilities. The high-performance servos here are given priority to vanguard ships that need to frequently engage enemies and clear out miscellaneous troops, such as destroyers or light cruisers, to ensure that their blood volume remains healthy after clearing 6 battles. To put it simply, what Tao Zhong looks at is battery life.
In the boss team, the battle rhythm is fast and the pressure is full instantly. At this time, the high-performance servo should be given priority to the damage-bearing position responsible for carrying the boss's first round of bombardment. Usually it's the expulsion or light patrol at position 1. Even if she was originally an output position, in order for her to survive stably until she can release her key skills, it would be a very cost-effective deal to sacrifice an output device and replace it with a servo. After all, output can only be achieved when she is alive.
Let’s simulate a scenario: you are conquering the difficulty of map 13, and the boss is an aircraft carrier with huge air defense pressure. In the front row you have Santiago Kai, Island Breeze and a certain heavy cruiser. At this time, Shimakaze is the main output and the most fragile, and must be given a servo to save its life; Santiago is changed to the core of air defense, and one should be given to prevent it from being taken away by the opening wave of air strikes; heavy patrol is not needed, and it is enough to bring the air radar and Little Beaver.
Another example is fighting the monthly boss in the big world, and the boss's damage explodes. If you have Noshiro and two tool guys in the front row, then the high-performance servo must be given to Noshiro. Because she has to rush forward and unleash thunder in the face, she is the boss's focus target. The extra 2,000 points of durability may determine whether she escapes completely after a set, or whether she melts directly into the boss's first barrage.
After reading this, you should probably have an idea. In fact, the core idea of allocating high-performance servos is one sentence: treat it as "survival specialized" equipment and give priority to those front-row ship girls who are the most fragile but must work in high-pressure environments. If you have just entered the game and have limited resources, you might as well start with the most commonly used ones: expulsion and light patrol.
By the way, do you want to know whether the boat you are most confused about is suitable for a steering gear? Or have you encountered any tragic accidents when the team was equipped and the car overturned due to incorrect equipment? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area, let’s discuss it together!
