Azur Lane: break down the list of ship levels

You may have seen our recent list of the best ship you can play in the mobile hit game Azure Lane and some references to the output Azure Lane Cross wave for PlayStation 4. But as dedicated players may know to be, there is much more where that came from, with a number of "ship girls" available to choose from.

• Level D
• Level C
• A level

So to let you know that class where we have broken down the list of vessels available per level. They range from Grade D to Grade S, although your choices may vary.

D grade is a decent enough start to ship, but they are not really strong enough to cut the long-term. Meanwhile, the S grade is the high-end ship you may ask, in terms of firepower, escape, defense and strength. So if you need to make a choice, the S grade is the best solution. And other levels also need to be experienced.

Let's break down each level, as well as their respective categories. We have included their name, what kind of class they are, their position and what nation they serve.

Level D

Isuzu- Light Cruiser - Vanguard (Empire Sakura)

Peppy - Aircraft carriers - Back line (Iron blood)

Chaser - light aircraft carrier - Back line (Royal Navy)

Again, you can use when you start, but do not expect them to help you through the whole game. You will replace them fast enough.

Level C

Curacao Retrofit - Light Cruiser - Vanguard (Royal Navy)

Newcastle Retrofit - Light Cruiser - Vanguard (Royal Navy)

Renovation Dangerous - Destroyer, Vanguard (Empire Sakura)

Kamikaze - Destroyer, Vanguard (Empire Sakura)

Sendai Retrofit - Light Cruiser Vanguard (Sakura Empire)

Thou - Aircraft Carrier, Back line (Sakura Empire)

Print Eugen-Heavy Cruiser, Vanguard (Iron blood)

Belfast - Light Cruiser Vanguard (Royal Navy)

Kamikaze- Destroyer, Vanguard (Empire Sakura)

Sirius-Light Cruiser Vanguard (Royal Navy)

Aside from the Print Eugen previously recommended, most of these ships will probably need a replacement midterm, because of their lack of power. However, some players may want to give them a shot if they seek a challenge.

Also, side note. You may have noticed that some ships are called Retrofit. These can actually be "modernized" to achieve an increase of scarcity. For collectors, they can be a real solid addition to the crew.
