Insert name here posted:It was a Dunk and Warspite, please do not slander us by implying that we'd div up a T6 and T7 tyvm Oh yeah, now I remember. I don't know 3/4 of the ships, my highest is T5 because I go up so many lines at once. Also because I play so much Bogatyr. I'm just barely more than two points from AFT and just being able to poo poo fires on everyone from out of their range. A couple nights ago I spent several minutes hammering a Nassau and a South Carolina from outside their range while dodging a DD's attempt at max range torpedoes, all while at 2,000 health. If I was better at minding my range it would just be unfair, and it should be even easier to kite BBs once I have AFT.

Is the amount of dragon flags you get calculated on the 19th ? If I buy another T10 ship before, will I get another 50 flags ?

How do you get to T6 as a CV and still just park in your starting position like no one knows where you are? Two matches in a row in my Zuiho, I sunk a dude in a Ryujo (same guy) who just...didn't move and had none of his fighters nearby, allowing me to put full 2 full drops of torpedoes into him AND dive bomb him.

I'm having a miserable time in cruisers, I either have to sit in the back with my lame team and lob mortars for piddle damage or try to close in and get melted by 8 ships at once

The Texas games could have been great if it wasn't for the Pub Factor, almost no tier 7 BBs. I think there was like 1 per side across both of them.

For the ARP Ashigara I went Basics of Survivability>Expert Marksmen and now I am trying to pick the third skill. I admit I am stuck between Vigilance and Torp acceleration. Is there any opinions on which is better?

Did I screw up getting turret rotation on my Russian DD captain rather than last stand? The traverse is just so slow. It's a super low level captain, so I can just replace him.

Based on what we saw earlier tonight, I think that you can potentially prevent the matchmaker from throwing your tier 5 into tier 7 by queueing up with 3 tier 5 battleships.

How bad does a team have to be for two people to each get both High Caliber and Confederate? Wouldn't that account for like 2/3 of the enemy team's health?

It's really funny watching Saipan drivers try to defend their ridiculous p2w ship as balanced, as they simultaneously tag 40 plane kills and 4 ship kills against either of Ranger or Hiryu, and any surface combo, without breaking a sweatE Equals MC Hammer posted:RN when? 1-2 months est.

What are people thinking is gonna be the new Ranked meta? Bismarks and whatever the Tier 8 russian cruiser with radar is? Seems like there will be a lot fewer DDs.

I'm predicting ranked will see a lot of my North Carolina, because it's the only tier 8 I have. More broadly, I think you'll see a lot of the Atago and Kutuzov.

I'm really hoping the Bayern B hull comes with a rudder, because getting the crew to lean out the side and drag a hand in the water to steer with the A hull feels like a design flaw.Pacra posted:Kutuzov is a terrible boat for ranked, teams should and will get mad if someone brings one in I'm just presuming a lot of people bought them, it's a tier 8, and pubbies love to pop smoke and sit still inside it while shooting. There'll probably be a lot of Tirpitz in ranked too, even though Bismarck is better, because one of them you actually have to grind to get. e: basically I'm expecting to see a lot of the highest selling tier 8 premiums, and I'm suspecting the Atago is really the only one that deserves to be there, and maybe the Lo Yang? Doesn't it have a better consumable set for ranked than the Benson? NTRabbit fucked around with this message at 16:40 on Sep 18, 2016 |

Devorum posted:I deleted a New Orleans that crossed my T at about 8Km, and kited a Tirpitz that got fixated on me until I sank it. I got my first ever in-game compliment, as well. An Atago, a Cleveland and I locked down the entire Eastern flank. I think this is my 4th Dreadnought award for the day. It's kind of weird that "crossing the T" is actually a super bad idea in this game. This is why I do so well in the Dunkerque. If real life worked anything like World of Warships, the Nelson and Dukerque would be the absolute best design scheme and tactically you would always be aiming to have your T crossed in some variation. Anyone one trying to transition from Warships to Fighting Steel would be in for a surprise.

The dumbest thing about the Bismarck/Tirpitz comparison is that their AA suites really need to be switched. So, WG, the ship that sunk in 1941, after being crippled by goddamn biplanes, somehow has better AA than a ship that survived until 1944, having its AA continuously upgraded and added onto during that time. Sure. More to the mechanical point, Bismarck has more advantages over its premium counterpart than any of the other comparisons. Significantly longer ranged secondaries as opposed to torpedoes is reasonably evened out, but then it gets both Hydroacoustic AND a significantly better AA suite on top of that. One or the other would have been fine, but both?
