Unique Commander Talents Changes
Update 15.6 brings major changes to the Unique Commanders system in World of Warships, aimed to increase the usefulness of Commander Talents across different battle types and make the activation of said talents more consistent and balanced across different commanders:
- Achievements are no longer required for talent activation, allowing talents to function across a wider range of battle types.
- Simplified activation conditions with introduced staged triggers. Some talents now grow in power as you reach additional milestones.
- Adding separate activation conditions and bonuses based on battle type, so that talents will be equally achievable and beneficial in most of them.
- It will also allow for tuning of these settings for particular battle types in future balancing changes as required.
In light of these changes, a 100% discount on resetting Commander Skills is available during the first 2 weeks of Update 15.6. You'll be able to reset your Commanders' skills either all at once (via a button on the World of Warships website) or for individual Commanders.
A dedicated article on special commanders has been updated to explain these changes in more detail.

Other changes
- Fixed a bug with the X Harugumo, X Minotaur, and X Yueyang unique upgrades that caused part of the bonuses they provide to Smoke Generator not to work properly in battle, even though it was described correctly in the UI.
- Fixed a bug which sometimes caused torpedoes to do full damage in Brawl sessions that had a modifier reducing torpedo damage for all ships.
- Fixed a bug with the recommended Commander skills for aircraft carriers.
- Added new entities in the Inventory, as well as rarity support, more detailed tooltips, and other UI improvements.
- Fixed a UI bug that caused long-duration consumables to have an incorrect number of remaining charges if you activated the consumable, disconnected, then reconnected while the consumable was still active.
- Fixed a visual bug with time-based consumables that, if you halted a consumable's action with ~1 second of charge left, it would display the wrong value in the UI.
- Bots in Asymmetric Battles are slightly stronger on all tiers.
