And for some reason I used Fusou less after her second remodel. No, not the art. Must be that consumption.

I won't say 'too much care for CV', carriers became Reppuu mules for about one year because crazy enemy air power and artillery spotting business, anyway, plus airstrike's accuracy sucks. Let them shine now with proficiency, don't downgrade them into Reppuu mules anymore. Not just one year, earliest Reppuu mule records goes back to at least late-summer 2013.

Actually the devs came up with an intended buff for CVs in spring 2014, but arty spotting duty introduced at the same time made the update actually a further nerf as a whole. I think this is a reason why they decided to use such a surefire way to buff them, cause CVs probably won't stand another unintentional nerf.
