DescriptionAn AP centric build, that further plays into Eugen's strength which is AP Alpha Damage & cruiser vs cruiser dog fights. With this build, you'll severely punish any cruisers that expose their broadside. Opted for Von Essen's AP pen angle inspiration as Riegerwald's second skill "Kraken" shells and Punch Through already provides a whopping 16% AP penetration which allows you to citadel cruisers at max range, the better pen angle from Von Essen will allow you to citadel cruisers at steeper angles when engaged in a dog fight and catch them off guard. Einstein's turret traverse speed is a general utility inspiration that will come in handy as your guns will always be point at where you want. All in all use your excellent German sonar, amazing Alpha AP damage & torp firing to impose your will inside a cap.
