That and over 1700kg projectile Georgia is dispensing left right and center, compared to merely 1360kg 1480kg on Yamato 1360kg is HE shell Being shot by equivalent of a sedan won't be comfortable, but SUV thrown your way will hurt more

You must be new to randoms then

Or you could say game handles HE pen in integers and it needs to be higher than plating encountered to be considered penetration.

say hi.

(one) of the biggest tonks in WoT with largest hp pool and thicc armor. Favorite target for farming damage, especially as in WoT absolute damage matters, not relative, as hp and gun differences between tanks aren't as extreme as in WoWs.

Not really Then there is case of updating "solid"/opaque windows with transparent ones. I recall Des Moines having solid windows, now she have actual glass. Zao also uses glass, unlike Myoko/Mogami/iBucky

Then to back to tonks and find Maus to farm

Suggestions regarding Operations, you know, game mode WG forgot it exists 1)remove week period for Operation being in rotation. If I'm not interested in X operation, I'm locked out for a week. If I get interesting Operation, lets say Narai, it gets dull quickly because again, whole week. Turning Operations from "Operation of the week" into "Operation of the day" should be more than sufficient 2)add variable tiers for Operations and scale enemy ships accordingly. Coupled with above, it would end up like this: -Operation of the Day: Aegis, tier 8. Players bring tier 8 ships of choice, enemies use tier 6-9 ships instead usual tier 4-7. So "sink BBs" task would involve Fuso, Nagato and Amagi instead Isuzuchi, Kongo and Fuso. -Operation of the Day: Narai, tier 5. Players bring tier 5 ships of choice, enemies use tier 2-7 instead usual tier 4-9. Missouri would be replaced by Colorado, Lexington with Ranger etc. It would bring a lot of new air to already stale Operations without creating new maps. And for WG part, you can't expand dock for free, also all the premium ship sales for Operations from players who want PvE and can't be arsed to grind required tier for Operation alone. That and it would bring purpose to T8 premiums, something that got lost somewhere between Musashi and Jean Bart in T9+ premium craze @Crysantos @MrConway

Except %hp matters for padding exp/credits. And considering it takes way less time to dispatch DD than BB, I'd take World of DDs than World of BBs

Yep. BB overpopulation was acknowledged as "issue" before (or was it after?) German BB release... three years ago?

Then with "capital fleet" concept you have two players having fun, rest being basically NPCs forced to protect them,. It could be done as Operation tho, (high tier) BB only operation limited to 4 players with truckload of bot cruisers and DDs for some epic scale combat. Only case where secondary build is actually viable is Narai - Scharnhorst sisters, Nagato and Lyon can be quite awesome there

Not quite achievement, but triple First Blood is rarity I guess?

The reason BBs don't have "realistic" secondaries is to have at least vague semblance of balance in this game. If you want full proper BB, with secondaries, main gun accuracy and whatnot, then hardcap of 2 per team is in order... Good luck handling those 3 players left out of typical 5BB/team random game When we're at it, there could be hard cap of two "capital ships" per team, with BBs and CVs being capital ships as historically they were. 4 cruisers and rest DDs and you have roughly accurate fleet composition... where everyone except capitals are forced to protect big guys... fun/10 /s

Fixed

Not only that, both are tier 9

Precisely the reason why getting into battle in WT outside of peak hours can take a while. Even now, Tuesday evening WT have 51k logged players. Spread out across basically three separate games (planes, ships, tanks) and then across circa 25 tiers with +-3 spread That game used to have over 100k players and that was split between two modes - tanks and planes. Suddenly 20-25k players in WoWs alone doesn't look so bad. WoT EU have 106k players logged in. Not bad, but then, I recall 210k+ playercount

That and chances of seeing the same guys in dozen battles in a row are... high. But hey, if you make MM that drives good players away, there would be no "noob team" complaints it would fix all skill gap issues and ultimate balans would be achieved

Flattening plane hp and AA across the tiers would do, but then, how WG would incentive getting next, bigger, badder ship when they all suck across the board?

HE bombs b!tchslap everyone equally, with TiTs to follow and torpedo dud carpet for sweeping smokes. AP bombs wreck cruisers and select few BBs, while flying Zao for rockets deliver balans to DDs and cruisers, 2x torps are 12/12 would torpedo run again.

Both. And get 160k FXP and additional 10mil credits per CV to skip stock planes, especially for Midway

This is why you check their armor layout. And pray to RNGesus to guide your shells

Dunno, Mogami CA was okay to play. But: -Mogami CL+IFHE is a thing -if you want Mogami CA, you're better off with Ibuki -I already have Takao for T8 IJN heavy cruiser needs

You can't rely as much on RNGesus to carry shells for you

The point of playing German BBs is to grind coal with them so you can afford proper battleboats

So, that makes 8th (Yamato, Musashi, Conqueror/457, Thunderer, Kremlin, Republique, Georgia) BB with 30mm overmatch capability. Torpedo-less Yoshino with 32mm plating at tier 10 when?
