    Why even bother?

    http://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Fire The formula is: [Fire Resistance Coefficient] x ( 1 - [Damage Control Modification 1] - [Fire Prevention] ) x ( [Projectile Base Fire Chance] + [Demolition Expert] + [Signals] - [Inertial Fuse for HE Shells]) = Fire Chance If you look at my calculations above, the important factors are included, and modules/skills will not change much. T10 will never face worse damage reduction coefficients though, so it will feel better. But a top tier Giulio should be as good in setting fires as a Conqueror (the latter has 1/4 HE pen and high alpha though, making it so insane).

    Fire Chance: -Giulio: 35% x10 = 350 x 0.8335(Tier 5 fire resistance coefficient) = 291.725 -Conqueror: 48% x12 = 576 x 0.5005(Tier 10 fire resistance coefficient) = 288.288 Wow, if I am not missing something, GC is indeed a better firestarter tier for tier. The Giulio AP is pretty great vs her own tier, yeah. But I am usually really close anyway, so I am even disappointed if it doesn't rain citadels.

    Isn't the fire chance tier for tier better than on the Conqueror, if you consider fire reduction? (What does that say about the Orion...) But I play my BBs to get fat AP citadels and I will never spam HE in them. Will not touch the RN BB line for that reason.

    Yeah well, at T7 it doesn't feel that OP anymore, if the enemy ships know how to angle. Still did 134k to some T7 BBs the other day though (heartbreak loss). Mid tiers are broadside paradise after all. And GC is just agile and accurate, which is simply FUN.

    New Campaigns: till January 17th

    Good news for all who will be away over the holidays: https://worldofwarships.asia/en/news/common/campaign-upcoming-ny2018/ These Campaigns will be available from the release of Update 0.6.15 and planned to end on January 17th 2018.

    LWM review of Duke of York is up on US forums

    I really liked the unique heavy-cruiser-style DoY they tested before. But obviously such ships are "too good in the hands of better players"...

    GC is my favorite BB too. It is just fun, getting High Caliber and Confederate in T7 matches. But to be honest, Z-52 is too good, to pass. If you use a gun build, it has the firepower obliterate enemy DDs on its own, unlike Loyang. (Used to run the common torpedo build, until I realized how crazy dangerous a gun build and RPF make this thing for enemy DDs.)

    Why did they remove Harekaze??

    I would only spend money on that camo, if it gave +100% XP.

    New Campaigns: till January 17th

    It should be possible, just like you could start the Yamamoto campaign later on. And yes, DoY will be available for purchase from the start. The announcement states, that if you buy it and then earn it later, you will get a credit compensation.

    Your favorite T7 ship?

    Giulio Cesare

    Why did they remove Harekaze??

    I believe that it will be back. It is most probably an international license. So EU should be able to sell it again, while NA does.

    Asashio. Yet a new Destroyer :)

    Was the ship in that HSF series? Because we got a second cooperation incoming.

    Asashio. Yet a new Destroyer :)

    Harekaze is great though.
  14. __Helmut_Kohl__

    Asashio. Yet a new Destroyer :)

    This will get Deepwater Torps to make it different from Kagero. Otherwise nobody would spend money on it.

    Fastest ship?

    He means 43.
  16. __Helmut_Kohl__

    Fastest ship?

    Yes, tied fastest. No, just different. Nothing, but they are not BBs.

    Wows Christmas event

    At least the campaigns will not be there before the update.

    Wows Christmas event

    My guess is next Thursday morning, with the update.

    weekend specials spoiling us too much?

    Simple solution: advance and play against better teams more often.

    weekend specials spoiling us too much?

    CW has been great fun, especially because there were no CVs. I can see that it was not a great deal for CV mains, but everyone else should love not being perma-spotted. Instead DDs need to gather information - how is that a bad thing?! And T10 is great, because there is not just ONE cruiser or ONE destroyer that is competitive. In Typhoon there was a competitive mix of Moskvas, Des Moines, Hindenburgs, Gearings, Z-52s and Yueyangs. Zao and Henry have also been viable. In T8 you would only see Loyang/Kidd and in T9 you would only see Fletchers as DDs. But yeah keep complaining...

    weekend specials spoiling us too much?

    On Tanks the weekends before the big holiday specials have always been disappointing, so I was not surprised to be honest. Has it been different on Warships so far? I think I have seen you in CW, btw.
  22. Well that depends on the mission I guess. It can be really useful to have a BB flank and quickly delete a certain group of ships. Also BBs are more durable. But I am not that keen on the whole scenario thing anyway.
  23. He probably bought a lot of those low tier perma camos, and is now butthurt.
  24. No comment.
  25. I am someone who is disgusted by the grindy nature of F2P, and I much rather spend some money to make fast progress, and actually enjoy my free time spent on this game. Sorry that "speedsters" like me "pollute T10" for guys with hidden stats like you, old sport.
