I saw some people complaining about their heavy shitlord teams. Just trying to get my daily win in, I failed... I guess. Do your losses look like this? My team accused me of kill stealing, saying "anyone could do it".   My only real regret is not finishing the 2 under 1k health cruisers that ran behind an island as the points ticked out. P.S. I'm coming for your Pacra, 92 battles to go to maintain my 3,175 WTR. P.P.S. I got reported 2 times.

Lakedaimon posted:Great googamooga I would have been thrilled to get through that torp blob with only 1 hit. I run the secondary upgrade and AFT, but they're both pretty good upgrades on the Warspite. The accuracy is somewhat bad and could use any improvement, but the secondaries can be pretty great in the right situations. Neither upgrade will help you much when you get into a tier VIII match on an open map.  Just don't bother with the AA upgrade, the guns got hit pretty hard by the general AA nerf and went from "good with AA focused upgrades" to "maybe ok against tier IV carriers."

Kownigsberg, or how I came to love the sonar. Most of my points probably came from single handedly taking out a Hatsu who derped and tried to close range torp me through smoke while my sonar was on.

World of warships was a better video game pre closed beta, when every cruiser shot AP at battleships and did pretty much the same damage over time as with HE fires. But battleship players couldn't deal with a cruiser shooting them and "heavy damage" popping up

South Carolinas don't even try to dodge my torpedoes. For its tier it is just riotous fun. Edit: it has a 6.5km detection range and 7.5km torpedoes so it's basically an underpowered Minekaze but you're playing against MUCH worse opponents.

Dralun posted:How does the Marblehead differ from a normal (upgraded) Omaha or the Murmansk? Marblehead vs Omaha Marblehead has more slightly more HP than C Hull Omaha (27k vs 26.8k) Marblehead has the same number of main guns as a C Hull Omaha (you lose 2 main guns from B hull to gain more AA) Marblehead AA same as A Hull Omaha (aka crap) Marblehead torps have a base reload of 38 secs vs Omaha 58 secs, 3km more range (8.2 v 5.5) but 7 kts. slower (56 v 49), and do half the damage (6.2k vs 11.7k) Marblehead vs Murmansk Marblehead guns are slightly more accurate (120m dispersion vs 135m), both have same number of main guns Marblehead torps again load faster, go slower & have longer range (but not as much more, 8.2km vs 8km on Murmansk) but Murmansk torps do 14k dmg Marblehead AA is again seriously inferior, Murmansk gets ~same AA as C Hull Omaha Marblehead (and Omaha) base max gun range is 12.7km, Murmansk is 14.8km Marblehead rudder shift is 7.8 seconds vs Murmansk 3.8 seconds Marblehead has different concealment ranges, sea/air 13.1/6.7 vs Murmansk 12.7/7.3  Special note: Omaha/Marblehead get a catapult Fighter plane, while Murmansk gets a Scout plane. This means the Murmansk can fire out to something nuts like 16-20? km while it's active, I can't remember exactly

Anyone noticed that premiums are suddenly losing money hand over fist if you get killed in a match even if you win? Just lost 44k and that was running flags and cammo in my Atago and I made 110k creds top line. I also seem to be paying for consumables even if I don't use them, has that always been the case?

Unless the Wickles got a serious buff, its torpedoes only have a 4.5km range, and are slower. It has better reload, more launchers, and an extra pellet gun though.

Especially if you're using one of the really expensive ones. 110k including the credit flag is really not that much at that tier. So it's possible they simply turned off the bonus purchased premiums get - whether accidentally or intentionally - but other than that it seems okay. Or maybe I'm just mentally inflating prices. That's possible too.

Might be even more if thats 22k per charge which is probably true. some of the premium charges are worth it though. premium aa on an aa boat, repair for everyone, heal for bbs, etc. Pacra fucked around with this message at 00:55 on May 27, 2016 |

This weekend's in-game contest is highest damage in a single match with either the New York, Cleveland, or the Nicholas 1st - 2nd Place = 1 USS Indianapolis* (upon release) w/port slot, 14 days premium, and 25 of every signal flag. 3rd - 5th Place = 1000 doubloons, 7 days premium, 1 port slot, and 15 of every signal flag. 6th - 25th Place = 750 Doubloons, 7 days premium, 10 of every signal flag. So dust off or rebuy those tier 5's and 6's. The Cleveland is most likely going to be the hardest of the three, so focus on the DD and the BB if you want a better shot. A good game of about 145,000 - 165,000 damage are going to be needed for a top three placement. Maybe a little lower for the Nicholas? Last weekend I was 100 pts of damage from 3rd in the Kirov and missed out on a free Molotov (but I bought a Molotov and a Blys with the accumulated 11,000 doubloons I've won anyways).

Not to mention, now that there are actually a decent number of premiums out there, it's not out of the realm of possibility that they might discount them for D-Day or the 4th of July. I'd buy a Texas and/or Campbeltown at 30-50% off.

The Arkansas is as good as the Wyoming except for AA and shift time, and at tier IV I don't ever really have problems with torp bombers. If you have a problem with dodging torp planes, the Ark is good for practice. I have a 71% solo win rate and 61,000 average damage over 69 battles, so it's not overly hard to do well in it unless you just don't like battleships in general....oh yeah and the preferential MM helps. I'd rather use my ark over my Marblehead any day.
