Mainz Shredder Build

DescriptionThis build is one of my absolute favorites. With all the skills and inspirations combined, you have around a +20% Penetration Buff to your AP shells on a Mainz, which can allow you to shred any ships showing you broadside with ease (coupled with Refill Station and Mimbelli, you can throw volleys out around every 4.5 seconds, hitting broadside targets for around 4-5k each volley, if not more. Not only that, but since your shell caliber is under the 280mm threshold, your AP can absolutely nuke slightly angled DD's (since you can get full damage on your ap from full pens on DD's). Plus, you still have the incredible 38mm pen ez-mode HE, and plenty of range to work with. This build is a Cleveland AP build but on the strongest anabolic steroids available. I've been able to citadel broadside cruisers at 12+km in this thing, including Mino's, Wooster's, and Hipper's. In my humble opinion, this build gets the best out of Mainz, and I hope y'all enjoy this build o7.
