Update 13.3: Wisconsin at the Dockyard

This is a short overview of the content in Update 13.3. You'll find more information in a dedicated article on our website.

EU NA ASIA

[h2]Dockyard: Wisconsin[/h2]


Build the historic American battleship in Update 13.3!

Ship features:
  • "Immediate Systems Reload" Combat Instructions that reduce your consumable preparation/cooldown time.
  • Accurate guns that inflict relatively low damage.
  • High speed and good concealment, but relatively weak armor.


The shipbuilding process consists of 30 phases, 28 of which can be progressed through by completing Dockyard combat missions. When you reach shipbuilding phase 20, you'll also be rewarded with West Virginia '44. If you already have her in your fleet, you'll receive three Dockyard phases instead; so, with that and completing enough combat missions, you can earn Wisconsin completely free!

The Dockyard combat missions can be completed during Updates 13.3 and 13.4, while the Dockyard will remain available until the start of Update 13.6.

[h2]Golden Week Festivities[/h2]


The new update welcomes a new Event Pass dedicated to the special holiday celebrated in Japan and East Asian countries!

The Event Pass consists of two 20-level progression lines.

  • Among the rewards of the first progression line, you'll find Romanian Commander Andrei Teodorescu, permanent camouflages, a permanent bonus package for Tier VII ships, and Golden Tokens.
  • For the second progression line, you can expect the Japanese Lacquer permanent camouflage for KongĹŤ, the Dawn Harmony permanent camouflage for Shimanto and Takahashi, a permanent bonus package for a Tier VIII ship, new Japanese Commander Ashikaga Teru, and Doubloons.


Golden Tokens can be spent at the Wishing Wharf event in the Armory.

During the Wishing Wharf event, you can spend Golden Tokens to try to get random rewards. Each Try will cost you 100 Golden Tokens.

The event rewards are separated into three categories based on their rarity:

  • Common rewards: Special and rare economic bonuses, Free and Elite Commander XP, Credits, and signals.
  • Rare rewards: HyĹ«ga, Maya, new hybrid cruiser Chikuma II, and Hayate, as well as themed permanent camouflages for HyĹ«ga, Maya, Mogami, Hayate, and Yamato.
  • Supreme reward: Chikuma II Golden with characteristics similar to Chikuma II but a unique appearance.


[h2]Asymmetric Battles[/h2]


Here's some good news for PvE fans—we've decided to bring Asymmetric Battles back for the entire duration of Update 13.3!

The rules haven't changed since the last iteration, and as for the bots, they'll continue to be a 12-ship team two tiers lower than each tier represented in the player team.

[h2]Leaderboard[/h2]


A new Armory activity starts in May! Join the competition and earn cumulative Base XP in all battle types. You'll be able to track your progress, as your position will be updated hourly.
The top 5 players in each realm will be rewarded with Tsurugi, while the top 6 to 50 players will get a discount coupon for the purchase of Tsurugi. All participants who earn at least 3,000 Base XP during the event will get 500 Community Tokens as a reward.
