After update maintenance on June 9, 2022 - Azur Lane introduce new additional equipment to strengthen your shipgirls. My first impression on this equipment is what will change after equip it. After going around to figure this out, here what I found. But before it, make sure you complete special support plan above. Because it only one time claim, after claim it all it will disappear from there.
Augment Module Source : Daily Raids
First, you need to know where is source of crafting material for Augment Module, isn't it? You can get it on daily raids with twice chance per week.
There is two option you can choose. If I remember it correctly, those level is commander level requirement you need to unlock that stage.
In this case, I will use my favorite fleet with full of french shipgirls. But wait, why Azuma is there? I'll change it quickly.
So, Augment Module can make those kind of slash attack huh? Let's see what it will look like if shipgirls who use it.
Augment Module Application
There is place you equip Augment Module gear.
There is option to equip or craft directly when you tap on that. This craft is seem cost much so I will skip it for now and wait until I really need it.
Edit June 15, 2020 : About Misinformation
I'm sorry for spreading misinformation on past few days. It turn out this is not how Augment Module work. I found this out when try to make comparison on Augment Module equipped by Laffey. It turn out nothing happened at all. After comparing with different scenario and different shipgirls too. Then after testing certain shipgirl, finally I realized it.
I mistook on of Rikka Takarada skill : Slash & Circus as Augment Module slash skill. The actual Augment Module slash skill is similar to Belfast slash on Daily Raids above.
The only effect that visible is those slash attack. Others just like a buff or a passive to support them.
This is second slash after the first one above unleashed.
Edit June 15, 2020 : How Augment Module Skill Should Look Like
After re-reading update notice in-game. There is some info that says Augment Module Effect / Skill need to reach certain level to unlock. So this grey text mean it's not yet unlocked.
When it enhanced to certain level. In this case Elite rarity Augment Module to max level at level 10 enhancement. Module Effect text change it color to yellow.
When Module Effect text is yellow, it's mean skill is active.
Then this is slash attack from Augment Module look like.
Its not stopped on single enemy, but instead its pass through on straight line.
Crafting Augment Module
You can see all Augment Module gears option on Depot > Craft section. From here we know that this gears have 3 rarity. Judge from it colors the it will be Super Rare, Elite and Rare. Super Rare Augment Module is kind of special equipment to specific shipgirl. Because i don't see that equipment appear on craft when select individual shipgirl. But the Elite and Rare Augment Module can be equipped on all shipgirls with matching it ship type.
In crafting section both in depot and shipgirls gear, Augment Module need to reach max level enhancement to make it available to craft. Otherwise it says insufficient material. So when you receive it, there are no inactive Module Effect. Augment Module with inactive Module Effect(non enhanced) can be obtained from Limited Event : Special Support Plan Augment Module or Daily Raids : Module Development drop.
Special Augment Module
This Augment Module is specifically used for shipgirl with "Departing Strike" skill and it belong to I-58.
This Augment Module is specifically used for shipgirl with "Eagle's Tears" skill and it belong to Arizona.
This Augment Module is specifically used for shipgirl with "Unbreakable Shield" skill and it belong to Prinz Eugen.
This Augment Module is specifically used for shipgirl with "Burn Order" skill and it belong to Belfast.
This Augment Module is specifically used for shipgirl with "Wargod of Solomon" skill and it belong to Laffey.
Conclusion
In My opinion this new equipment can help us to overcome some difficult area. Like campaign chapter 13 that yet to be completed to me. Why is it so hard despite of some UR ship and commander level that I already got.
My opinion about Augment Module is I find it some gear can be really useful. But some other is rather hard to find usage that meet it effect requirement. Also some other effect is not really interest me. So, I hope they will add more Special Augment Module in future. Or at least add more variety on Elite and Rare Augment Module. So we fellow commander can utilize it potential.
