Centaur
Tier: 0
MAN I wanna know what Manjuu were smoking when they designed this. 80 more AVI than the next highest CVL, with 3 planes and good plane efficiencies to boot. I actually thought she was a CV for a while, until I tried to put her in a CV-locked hardmode slot.
Centaur carries a very uncommon loadout of Fighter/Fighter/Torpedo Bomber, which both gives her strong AA, and is the best possible loadout for contributing to Air Superiority (this mechanic does not currently exist on EN, but will be added with, and extremely important in, ch13). While this normally would significantly cut her bombing damage (like on Illustrious), Centaur more than makes up for it with an extremely powerful barrage.
The barrage sends out planes, which drop sweeping torpedos on crossing diagonal paths. Very high damage, especially to targets near the center. Large AoE as well. It also slows damaged enemies, making them easier targets for other allies or another stored airstrike. The power of this barrage is so high that Centaur is able to match damage output with T1 CV/Ls, despite her high-support plane loadout.
Centaur’s airstrike also gives all backliners a small damage amp. Useful when dumping mass cooldowns.
