Or 200mm main belt with 305mm guns is tad too low to be considered proper battleship. Scharnhorst have BC guns, but best in tier armor protection. Hood and Kongo pack BB guns, former have also rather decent main belt

Keep in mind it took WoT team like 6 years to do it, so I'd expect something resembling tutorial in 2021

Yep, before turret hp buffs ending game with turrets still present was rarity. Old tier 6 Ognevoi was especially "fun" once turrets were gone

Exp per caps used to be profitable back in the day. DD topping the chart for capping 3 bases simply by virtue of failing to land any torp hits was not unheard of. Guess why its no longer in game

Well, its decently fun game nowadays, arcade to the extreme though. And going purely for air combat won't win you many games, so same issue here as in Spacebar Thunder...

In real life you wouldn't be able to afford BB to start with. And then you would be scared shitless to lose it. And I guess you conveniently missed damage done by 5 HE shells, focusing solely on "fires, fires everywhere". Where I left that BBingo again?

Well, Prinz Eugen is example of perfectly balanced premboat, which is the reason why she doesn't sell well

Well, for those players already struggling there are all those fancy premium paints to purchase, so combined with premium account they can yolo their way through and still make monies

Considering habits of average players, developing any sort of "advanced" guide is borderline pointless. Those who want to learn usually can find their way to forums or ask uncle google or aunt youtube for "world of [your vehicle of choice] tips". And then we're talking about WG, developers who pretty much intentionally keep players in the dark "to not confuse players" in terms of details. Most specific data is datamined and present on 3rd parties and only sometimes goes onto official(ish?) wiki.

have you given enough prayers to our lord and savior RNGesus to cast fires upon thy enemies?

Teaching average player who put about as much brainpower to the game as they use for watching TV is... futile quest. Those who want to learn can easily enough find enough sources and help on the forums.

Tier 2 premium CV?

older doesn't necessarily mean ancient. Although old C&C is something worth backing to. Or Diablo 2 for some grimdark smashing

I guess everyone wants players to go back and appreciate older games, not so chock full of bs

@anteanPost editing is hard yo What about Tiny Tims? Workable or case of 457mm Conqueror guns?

Wild guess might lead to what used to be in alfa/early beta, when ships had two "hp bars" - one normal hp bar for eating damage and 2nd, "buoyancy", affected by flooding, giving predictable consequences - ship losing and maneuverability speed as it takes water. And if it takes enough water, even reasonably intact ship goes down.

Two issues here, we're talking about game developed by WG* and we're on EU forum, place not exactly known for dev-players interactions *Technically WG is only publisher, as actual dev team is Lesta Studio. Still, WG is their parent company, so whatever

And to top it off, WT "realism" might prove somewhat unwanted, for example gunnery. BBs are almost certainly a no go, while player controlled aircraft capable of one shotting DD and smaller vessels with torps/bombs might bring warm fuzzy memories of "balanced" WoWs CV

Both use old tea bags for armor, Neptune is tad bigger and considerably less concealable tho.

My Conquerror still boasts 0%wr

Lion is decent ship, on average I've found her more accurate than Monarch and 406/419mm AP is by no means bad in terms of penetration. Still have abysmal firing arc for rear turret and no longer have improved reload though. What I've found on other hand are somewhat pointless upgrades - 419mm are mild improvement over 406, base 18.9km is more than welcome after suffering through Monarch. Engine upgrade borders on pointless with 1.5kts extra. I'd get hull first and then see if you like boat enough to get guns/range/engines. If not, off you go to the Conquerror at least she fixes rear turret firing arcs and there isn't a problem you can't fix by adding more guns Issue is with Lion/Conq lol heal. Yes, you can recover half of your ship and do it 3 times more, but due to long cooldown, you want to have exit strategy of sorts to disengage, akin to cruiser.

But then average player had enough brainpower *edited* spectacularly and if they did, they didn't come to the forums screaming

And people moan about inability to whip your credit card to get one ASAP to get one for themselves

Straight up 2d boobs doesn't necessarily mean "hot" Considering Yuu was announced with regular(ish) camouflage, one might assume she will be normal IJN premboat. Some fancy Kantai Collection collab might happen though

RN BB AP is "bad" as in have short fuse time, which may or may not hinder ability to citadel battleboats with more elaborate armor layout. Which is a moot point as most BB have hidden citadel anyway, while short fuse helps with not overpenning broadside cruisers. Bow on citadels might be tougher to achieve though.
