Yeah I was thinking the same. You can 1-shot Montanas and Yamatos too, if RNG favors you.

Back to the topic: How likely is it even to get top-XP in a Haku, when you and your CV-rigging-friend just click on each others fighters and farm damage? Because in Randoms it is really hard getting topXP in a CV, even in a good game, if you don't take caps as well. I mean Ranked has a smaller target pool, but many Des Moines and Minotaurs as well.

When you are at the off-cap in your DD on Hotspot for example, and they screw it up at the homebase, it will take you forever to get there. On maps like Sea of Fortune, with the close caps, you always keep your influence.

It is released already. This is its final form. And it can be quite crazy.

The AP bombs and their citadel damage are fine in my opinion. The circular pattern just makes it impossible to dodge, which is the only problem in my book. And it is a big problem.

No I just don't like it when a statement starts with an insult like that.

I would tell you the same if he wasn't in my clan. Your tone prevents any productive discussion.

WG have stated that they excluded CVs from CW because of their influence, just like Negativvv said. I think it was in the Waterline video. Also your attitude is not helping.

I guess if they would try to rig it, they would rather just not engage each other with fighters (or better just feed them to each other), so that they coud both farm damage all game and not lose a star. Just rushing into the enemy team would not make any sense.

Yeah it used to be a very important skill in Ranked, to shift flanks at the right time. This is now almost impossible. It takes away a lot of the influence that a good player can have on his team.

After well organized CW, it really hurts to play TX Ranked. Blobs of BBs just driving into caps, sitting there; Radar Minotaurs pushing up the middle of the map; Friendly DDs just ruhing up into the arms of the enemy team to suicide right away; etc. Maybe it will get better below R5, but this is just stupid. They should have never made R10 irrevocable. R15 would have been much better for that. TX is very unforgiving. Forcing people into that, who are not ready, is not good for the teams. I really wonder if statistics show more steamrolls now at R10-R6...

We already had that on the old Shiratsuyu, but ok.

That is why I said a second hull, that can only have smoke or TRB.

By its own yes. As part of an adjustable ship, it is more attractive. @Mr_Tayto Harekaze has the T7 torps as a tradeoff for the Akizuki guns.

Kagero is not premium. Can't put my 19p Shima cap into that.

I thought of an additional hull, that is basically a Kagero (smoke or TRB)

I only bought it because of the 20km. Since I have Kagero and Harekaze already... (sry for double-post)

That would be pretty nice, since another DD would often not know, if you can just be rushed or not.

Well, the 20km with TRB is what makes it unique to me, because it gives plenty of stupid ideas to launch at the start of the match. I would have liked it to be just normal torps.

Whats a helmutosaur?

Sure, but to some of us the game is getting boring without unique ships. It might not make it competetive, but with those theoretical 5.2 concealment it would be a really nice division mate for a support-cruiser. If you play Asashio as a lone-wolf, then yes. We all love Harekaze for that. But Harekaze is a self-sufficient DD and doesn't actually need special teamwork from a division.

While you are not wrong, I like having really unique and special ships in the game. Making it a super stealth-scout, that can outspot DDs and snipe BBs, might not be the most competetive approach, but it can support teamplay (in theory that is).

Yeah, the torpedoes can never be buffed. The only way would be to rebalance them completely, closer to what PA have. If the DD would really underperform, one could just give it 5.2 concealment instead, which would make it a better scout.

Don't take him seriously. That guy is just trolling, because he wants his premium ship buffed to be OP. Kagero and Asashio are identical T8 ships. The difference is that: Kageros torpedoes have: 10km range and 10 sec reaction time, while it can only use smoke or TRB while Asasios torpedoes have : 20km range, 5 sec reaction time, and it can use smoke and TRB If Asashio could hit cruisers too, that would be too much.

This is it for me, since I am actually at work and you are clearly trolling.
