^ If you carefully read the conditions for double attack/cut-in, the hyotekis don't count for it ... equipping 3 hyotekis will result in only single attacks.

Since torpedo cruisers can't equip seaplanes, they can't do double attacks/cut-ins in day battle, so the setup should be set towards opening torpedo salvo and night battle.

In Kai Ni form, you have 2 options:

1 - Setup for double attacks at night with 2x 15.5cm yellow gun + 1x hyoteki (good firepower and accuracy during the day);

2 - Setup for torpedo cut-in at night with 2x torpedos (best ones recommended) + 1x hyoteki (awesome torpedo damage).

Due to KTKM luck, the 2nd setup may be best.

I have both Ooi K2 and KTKM K2, equipped Ooi with first setup and KTKM with second setup, team them up with a couple subs and the enemy is mostly gone before the shelling phase.
