It is absolsutley infuriating that you do a bombing run on a Scharnhorst with that stupid carpet bombing planes, score 11 bomb hits were 10 shatter and one does 730 dmg .. You can completely forget to bomb cruisers or anything smaller than that as bombs land everywhere just not on target, and if you get penetrating hits, the dmg is just absymaly low. Right now these things are not fun at all and i struggle hard with RN CV's. On avarage, i got 25-30% lower WR than on US or IJN CVs.

Well, i think that in 8.0 onwards CVs became very underpowered. Imo they shoudl double the alpha dmg on all planes

Probably nothing, that thing is just trash

Haha :P Well the list was more or less a guesstiamte. Noticed i have a ton of prem ships i didnt even play yet sooooooo

Mikasa, Murmansk, Marblehead and Missouri i guess .. playing all others from time to time.

Always depends on your ships avaliable. I mostly played Gallant, Nelson and Belfast and so far they all have been very easy to complete in casual gameplay.

You are not playing the same Yubari I am then. That thing melts Planes out of the sky like no other ship in that tier

Which is okay because the carrier will spend significant amount of time and resources to try to kill you, while the rest of the team can actually do something useful.

Thats how my game looked shortly before my graphics card went down the drain :P

Just casually gaming i got the Hermes, about 500 Florins short to the next one. Feels like its too hard to get if you dont hardcore grind.

What if change is give the ability to select TWO targets for manual secondaries so that the second side can fire too ..

Highest I’ve seen so far was 217 planes shot down by one ship. I recently placed a game in Sims(!) and downed 61 planes before the CV realized that harassing me was a bad idea.

You can assume that ships travel full speed nearly all the time. Alternative battle interface is cool and all, but it just adds info that doesn’t „really“ help you

Not very good. It feels like you are either missing or overpenning. You gotta taken that ship very close if you want to hit something, on the other hand you only gonna overpen if you get that close. I’d give it a „Meh“ rating. Played more exiting ships ..

Best tip I can give you: Turn on the dynamic crosshair in the settings. You set the horizontal line just between the water and ship, and use the numbers to lead. 5 for slow Battleships, 7 for Fayer battleships and 10 for cruiser and destroyers. Russianndestroyers will need about 12-15. There you go, your aiming will always be on point.

My only problem with the CV rework is that in some situations you are entirely incapable of doing anything. I never had that feeling in old gameplay. Yesterday i had 3 games where I quit back to port because I threw the towel in my Midway and, frankly, got mad. Me and an other Midway on the team, so basically 2 T10 CV, vs. a single enemy Minotaur on 10k hp in endgame. He was entirely untouchable for us, for two CV. He ended the game with 187 planes shot down as we spent a good 7 minutes throwing everything at him that we had, but we didn’t even get close to doing dmg to him. In the end I even attempted to ram him to win the game because I felt so incapable of doing anything. Happened 3 times, weird every time with a Mino being entirely Plane-Proof and solo winning the game with nearly 4K base XP because of the vast amount of plane kills. CVs are extremely strong in end game as they can harass you endlessly until you die or time runs out, but in some cases you can just go back to port and call it a quits because it’s entirely impossible to do anything. Im growing in the gameplay, but there is still a lot of balancing to do. Carry potential imo got decreased a lot.

To be fair it takes hell of a good rng luck to do a 10k+ roll on a DD with bombers. Crossdroppng with old midway was guaranteed death tho.

Well before rework they got crossrop deleted straight away, not they a Ton least survive the first strike with half their hp :p

Republique is the best T10 BB right now, if I had to start from scratch I’d instantly get that again.

Your avarage DMG that you do is much lower now, so youll earn much less credits too. Right now i do about as much avarage DMG in a T8 CV than i do in a T2 ship. CV's turned completely irrelevant sadly.

No. AA is way too strong right now, no need for further buffs.

Dont bother with AA, CV dont do near enough dmg that it would be worth speccing into AA.

Well, imo carriers turned into utter meaningless garbage. It took me a hefty 8 minutes of constant bombardment, torpedo attacks and strafing runs with rockets to take down a Jean Bart in Midway that came over a flank. The damage output is laughable, it takes way too much time to do any meaningful dmg and it seems that even DD AA totaly shredds your planes. Ended the game with 46k dmg in 10 minutes. Next game i managed to do a hefty 13k dmg since the enemy was a huge blob and my planes just exploded as soon as they got spotted. 13k the entire game, with a tier 10 carrier. Go figure. Old Midway did more dmg in one single good strike. Game after that i do a torp run on a Montana that is on 4000 hp. A torp hits as the other planes died, poof, 3200 dmg. He sails away and repairs. Uhm. Those torps feel like throwing candy bars at battleships, absolutely worthless as a divebomb attack or even rocket attack deal more dmg and are way easier to execute. And mind you, im Super Unicum on most of my carriers .. Right now, it feels like carriers got degraded to nice eyecandy, and have absolutely 0 carry potential.

Or dont use them at all. Best buff for Conq there is

After Republique
