DescriptionA high level Starscream or Hans Geisler is viable for this build. I prefer starscream due to how fast you get your planes back after attack runs using his special trait “INSPIRED RETURN”. If you feel you need more AP bomb pen and Damage then go Geisler. Fully spec into your squadrons for max Efficiency. DO NOT Spec into secondaries as it takes away from squadrons potential. AP Dive bomber health is among higher end for Tier 7 CVs only trailing behind Saipan if you build fully into it. Torpedo bombers can do just as well as Parseval torps even tho they’re a slower speed and planes have wider turning circle. It is on the player to adjust. GZ is very capable of putting up the similar numbers to Parseval due to easier AP bomb dropping. It is on the player to determine how to effectively drop AP bombs. May take a few tries to get it down.
