Their weapon also stated to be conceptual which allow them to totally overwhelm and destroy modern conventional warship despite their rigging is just human-sized, always allow them to come out on top when it come to these confrontations. Shipgirl's attacks can damage other Shipgirls down to their Wisdom Cube which in turn damage data & information that formed Shipgirls' existence and their hull/rigging, these damages can only be fixed by using the power of Wisdom Cube which contains data, information and concepts composing Shipgirl existence and their hull/rigging.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Star-Studded Formation (星羅棋布 ): Every 8s: fires a Lv.1 (10) special barrage (DMG is based on the skill's level). When 4 same-colored shots in a row from this barrage hit the same enemy, one of the following debuffs are inflicted: 1) if the shots were black, the enemy's SPD is decreased by 15.0% (30.0%) for 2s; 2) if the shots were white, the enemy's DMG dealt is decreased by 5.0% (15.0%) for 2s.
- Cunning Stratagem (詐謀奇計 ): When this ship launches an Airstrike: launches an additional Lv.1 (10) special airstrike (DMG is based on the skill's level).
