Full Tank including FP, BoS and the Dmg Con 2 module with supporting flags is insane. 

 

Fire duration falls to almost Cruiser levels (not far off 30s).

 

I'd take BoS over Vigilance these days.

Yep... I use that on both my "Mushasi" and "Yamato" (and I used it on "Izumo")...  :Smile_glasses:

What about CE? Is it a case of trying your best to plug that weakness or just accept it and not even bother?

I use the CE as well (of course)!

So you need 17 point captain to make the ship work properly :Smile_sceptic:

FP is the main part of your survivability build, you can take that as your second four-point skill, after CE, and so have the main bulk of your survivability build at just a 14-point captain. 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.

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.
