Bumps HE pen from 33 to 43mm. I guess if one meets too many NC, Iowas and Montanas (or Fusos/Bayerns for that matter), it *might* matter. IFHEnri is on other hand valid pick, especially if one happens to have De Grasse, which as true CL without IFHE is tad lacking

Double rudder, Engine Boost mod for 4.5min of buzzing around and play her like you would play Kebab with 203mm guns

Anyone get any Ship Missions from Air Supply containers?

Wankspite isn't bad... But I already have QE with perma camo and her own captain. -

Only premium boat from non paid crate I've got was Wankspite Crappy Kreme came from paid christmas crate actually. Making it extra sad -
Its not a bug, its a feature, just like gun silencers coming with Cleveland Freedom camo and offset 4th Benson turret with Halloween camo

It would cause some confusion in this section. Some speaks about russets, agatas, yukons and then sudden broadsidingus yamatos subtype appears

Very unlikely unless you would pay doubloons for every swap. And even then, why you would be in such a hurry, why you wouldn't enjoy glorious interface, made to give you bit of time in this hurried world?

Reminds me of Haifuri collection back in the day. I was literally one duplicate away from completing collection and getting Yamato perma camo. Then three supercrates in a row reees were had that day

I wonder when we will arrive at "your favourite type of a potato" at this pace CV wise, ancient Lexington with 0/1/3 loadout and pre rework Hiryu, despite every sign on heaven and earth pointing latter to be stinker Post rework, obviously both T10 CVs for their expertise in salt mining operations and Shokek for being fun to boat around when not uptiered into clan wars

Considering even mythical IJN torps are mainly anti capital ship ordnance, whether they go 35 or 40kts isn't going to matter much if you executed your strike correctly and guy on receiving end happens to not have bigass magnet to lift boat off the water. And faster planes means less time to react for pleb on the surface while you spend less time in AA range. Which is EXTRA handy in "too fast" IJN torpedo bombers with maxed out concealment. If you need to slow down and "turn quicker" means you've botched initial preaim and latter matters only if you turn around within AA, something less than viable as even Moosashi flak can remind you of its presence.

Japanese Carriers are fairly bad or just me?

IJN CVs are "weak" when it comes to killing DDs. Otherwise they need some practice with APbombing, who and when you can citadel.- 34 replies

On Lex/Enty TB maybe, but then these are only USN TB actually worth considering buffing them. And streeeeetching it, Ranger as well, not so much for her TBs being any special, but rather maintenance crew can't be arsed to load two bombs on DBs UK CVs, due to their reliance on TBs to dent tougher cookies... Not really. Targets you can't bomb usually are big enough to land torps without accelerating them. On other hand targets too small to reliably bomb are going to be elusive targets for TB as well so go back to square one ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Replace Torpedo Acceleration with Improved Engines. CVs either have crappy torps with short arming distance or have fast torps with not so short said distance. In both cases TA is hampering you without bringing anything worthwhile to the table, while plane speed is universal both for moving around (duh), offense and defense.

Then stop blacklisting people left right center and diagonal? -

Works okay on my end, only initial chat load takes like... 2 seconds? -

Panocek replied to SEN_SEN_Channel_Portugue's topic in General Discussion
Just a reminder, in game chat channels are a thing -
Nothing wrong with one of the most balanced ship on her own tier getting bit more balanced Ashigara with secondaries upgrade and (back then) AFT on captain was top kek on Narai as nod to her hotheaded personality

Does current CV gameplay lack skill aspect?
Panocek replied to LemonadeWarriorITA's topic in General Discussion
Well, you need to level up your gitgud mastery to unlock anti detonation flag... And HE shells still can detonate ships without direct hit -
Some questions are better left unanswered

Not necessarily in "waifu" status -
German cruisers as their gimmick have somewhat low penetration, but high damage AP shells while HE are other way around - high HE pen enables them to damage A LOT of targets, but damage is going to be lacking, entire line have long range on main guns but short range torpedoes, former enables to to at least something when uptiered, latter gives ambush/brawling edge. They also have "German" Hydroacoustic Seach consumable with increased range of detection of enemy ships and torpedoes up to 6km Tier 5 and 6 (Konigsberg and Nurnberg) are literal glass cannons and unique enough, have 2/3 firepower in the rear with peculiar 360 degrees traverse, making "offensives" kinda tricky at times. Kiting, or "tactical retreating" to bait enemies closer to teammates works fabulously with such turret layout though. Tier 7 is first heavy cruiser in line and some time ago she got considerable buffs, so should be more than playable. Tier 8, Hipper is controversial ship, as she is somewhat undergunned, while armor layout against right enemies (battleships with 381mm guns or smaller) enable her to withstand hilarious amount of abuse. Bigger guns like 406mm are going to hurt though, but especially at close range citadel damage should be unlikely due to turtleback armor. Tier 9 is basically what happens when Nurnberg and Hipper have kids - 2/3 firepower in the rear, with 9x203mm guns total. Unlike Konigberg/Nurnberg, her rear guns don't have 360 traverse, so switching sides leaves out undergunned for a while. Tier 10, Hindenburg solves that issue by tacking 4th turret, leaving you with balanced 50/50 firepower, also she gets 2nd quadruple torpedo launcher per side, making late game brawling against Hindenburg extra risky on top of chunky hp pool and armor layout favoring short range engagements.

Only idea coming to mind is to replace two randoms with ones you can yell at over skype/TS/the shoulder
