Really not fond of the Nagato, especially not compared to the Fuso. You lose damage, lose range, gain a tiny edge in maneuverability. Just not near as fun.

Magni posted:How To Nagato: You turn slightly faster than a fuso, with the same sized turning circle and any attempt to get close can and will end with you getting blown to bits as everyone is using the aiming mod. The Nagato's secondary armament is broadly comparable to the Fuso's while it's lacking the two extra turrets for those all important citadel hits and finally, declaring a ship "good" only when you can get a lvl 4 skill on it seems silly at best. Basically? Those tactics work just as well for the Fuso as they do the Nagato while the Fuso has better long range firepower, more chance of killing things close in and far more generous match making.

I'd keep the Cleveland but sell the Pensacola when you switch over to the New Orleans. The two halves of the American cruiser line have a rather different playstyle.

cheese posted:Destroyers are such a loving joke right now. Tier 6 carrier parked his fighters over my Minekaze, 50 seconds with my AA on and I finally shot one down. Literally took me out of the key part of the battle with the lowest effort. I'm fairly sure CV's are killing the game at the moment. When it's a case of "oh god, they've got a higher tier jap carrier" and basically presuming a loss. Something is wrong.

Jesus loving christ some of the people in this game. Just watched a Fubuki get into a stern chase with a Midway and refuse, point blank, to fire his guns at all. Just ineffectually throwing torps at it from long range with no hope of ever hitting.

Dark Helmut posted:I'm horrible with the Omaha and I just want to get through it to the Cleaver. Help me UNDERSTAND! The greatest thing to remember about the Omaha is that a full broadside is only 2 more shells than being frontal or back. 6 vs 8. As such there's no real reason to ever show your sides to the enemy ships. Also, the B hull is likely the better choice to the C. You're not going to be shooting down poo poo with that anemic AA anyway and losing a gun and half your torps isn't really worth it. This will hold true even when the patch hits as a little extra range also won't make up for it.

Kerrow posted:How bad are the Colorado and Pensacola on the Furutaka scale of sucking-the-life-out-of-you-everytime-you-hit-the-battle-button? The Pensacola is a fine ship. Good AA and reasonably good guns if not quite to the spammyness of the Cleveland. It's got a way shorter angle though so they arrive sooner. It's got weak sides though, so don't show them if you can help it. The Colorado is just bad especially given your coming from the New Mex into it. It's slow, it's guns are inaccurate, and its just generally all around "bleh". The Colorado is the price you pay for the North Carolina which I've found to be a murder machine in comparison especially as you'll be fighting a lot of Atago's who all seem to cherish showing you their sides and getting Citadeled to gently caress for their troubles. Night10194 posted:I've just researched the Furutaka. I free xped past it rather than use it. On the bright side, the Aoba is good, the Myoko is very good and the Mogami is a Cleveland with more guns, torps and better concealment..

For one thing, there's an average of 4 of them in every match so I'm sick of the sight of them the same way in my Fuso I was sick of seeing Clevelands. At least with Cleveland though, I had no problem destroying them in my Fuso. Fairly my feelings on it. Before the Tirpitz i was going to keep the NC, now... i'll dump it after i get the Iowa. If i want a Tier 8 BB i'll grab the Tirpitz, it's just generally the better ship.

Basically the Pro's of the US cruiser line are rather negligible. Somewhat better armour and AA isn't really that great compared to more damage (more guns) and, well, more damage (torps). Blinks77 fucked around with this message at 22:01 on Sep 21, 2015 |

jownzy posted:Before I waste exp, leveling the Ranger, should I just keep the default plane arrangement 1-1-1? The problem you're going to run into is called the Hiryu The Hiryu gets a 2/2/2 loadout because, well, Wargaming hates the Ranger. Your single fighter then dies to his two and he proceeds to gently caress you up in the air for the rest of the game while still having more than enough torps and DB's to gently caress surface ships. So... pick your poison 3DB's and 1 TB and spend your games running from fighters 2 Fighters and 2 DB's and have little effect upon the surface fight.

Orgytron posted:Currently grinding New York and I started looking at New Mexico stats. Is there anything it brings to the table that the NY doesn't already do? It doesn't look like that great of an upgrade. Its range and maneuverability are both worse, for example. 12 Barrels as opposed to 10. You also don't need to show your sides to get all of them on a target unlike the New York with it's central turret. Like Hazdoc says, it's an excellent ship. I kept two tier 6 ships, the Cleveland and the New Mex and of the two, it's likely the New Mex which is the more murderous.

PirateBob posted:I haven't tried the New Mexico yet. I absolutely loved the Fuso though. Would you say that the New Mex is categorically better? I'd say they're both good. Maybe leaning towards the New Mex because of it's better armouring and better angling when it wants all it's turrets on a target.
