Fire duration falls to almost Cruiser levels (not far off 30s). I'd take BoS over Vigilance these days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BoS makes it less painful to let fires burn out and so gives you an easier time rationing your DC, but FP is the cornerstone that makes or breaks the build. The difference between having or not having BoS is far less than the difference between having or not having FP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The difference between having or not having BoS is far less than the difference between having or not having FP. I've seen a few people go on about how good FP is. I only have one T9 BB so far (Iowa) and a few T8s but I'm yet to use FP on anything. I get set on fire a lot in Iowa and Amagi but basically never twice in the middle. On the other hand BoS made a huge difference to me in Iowa. On Amagi I have JoaT plus HA and my DCP cool down is almost cruiser level, I can juggle fires without issue. So I remain sceptical about the value of FP, 4 points is a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
