Ibuki is a Sakura Empire heavy cruiser in Azur Lane , primarily known as the queen of manual torpedo nuking. While she was historically overshadowed by power creep, her Augment Module and Fate Simulation have revitalized her niche, making her one of the most explosive pre-loaders in the game. Core Performance & Review

: Provides a chance to launch a special torpedo barrage when she fires her standard torpedoes. With her Augment, this becomes far more reliable and activates even on preloads. Optimal Equipment Recommendations

: Quintuple 533mm Magnetic Torpedoes (Rainbow or Gold) for Auto, or 610mm Quadruple Torpedo Mount (Gold) for maximum manual burst damage.

: Good, but her torpedoes may often miss or hit unimportant targets, wasting her main strength. Key Skills

To maximize Ibuki, focus on increasing her Torpedo stat and Hit rate.

: Triple 203mm (Mogami-class) (HE) or Twin 203mm (SK C/34) (AP). Since her gun damage is secondary, use a gun that helps with shield-breaking or consistent DPS against light armor.
