I thought hp was "calculated" from ship displacement. And as Myoko, Mogami, Takao are about the same displacement, it makes sense for them to have comparable hitpoints. Ibuki being improved Mogami follows the pattern. And Myoko in that regard was the heaviest from all existing IJN CA, so her having the most hp somewhat makes sense.

Take a break, play other games. Go navy event and now "anniversary", suggesting daily login and play are especially tiresome.

Z-52 with Vigilanced Hydro, detecting stuff at 7.35km would be only mildly broken, don't you think?

But sole reason to play Minotaur is to finish missions like "get 1k ribbons" in one go

USN battleboats from tier 7 up gets 45s turret traverse time, which is manageable without EM, even more so as ships themselves get increasingly clumsy with tiers up. Personally I run rather generic build (PT, AR, SI, CE, AFT, BoS, JoaT) on them, if you aren't concerned as much with carriers, you can replace AFT with Fire Prevention for extra tanking. Upgrades wise, I tack AA range, DamaConMod2, Concealment and accuracy upgrade (tier 9+) on them, though faster reload is an option as well. US heavy cruisers I run with PT, EM, SI, CE, AFT, Demo, AR. My prime reason for using EM is to allow turrets to keep on target during hard maneuvers and IIRC they just barely do so, especially if you add reload upgrade, which downgrades turret traverse. AFT is on both to complement AA, supposed American trait though its bit of a waste if you don't team up with CV

Don't forget gross pay2win too.

And apparently you can't redeem codes for technical reasons now

For occasional daily they just work fine, bonus points if pink cruiser trigger someone. And as you can put any captain without penalties, you can knock considerable amount of 1st wins if you're in need of leveling captain

And I still have Arpeggio filter in game which works just as before, as in removes "ARP" camo from ships so you're left with bare boat.

Yep. And amount of butthurt because someone got colorful boat for free was (and still is) astonishing

CV reworked for VR?

While 15cm guns on destroyers are more of a miss than hit in this game, with IFHE they gain ability to damage most of the ships ingame with HE. While T6 Gaede doesn't benefit as much from this skill (only tier 6+ BB and T8 cruisers) its much more handy on Zed23, almost giving that ship a role. Then Akizuki buff happened

Who in his/her/it mind branded Hellmarch 3 as CoD theme

60mm superstructure so it can withstand German HE

Looking at what Russians got for DD (Khaba) and cruiser (Moskva) I expect nothing short of floating island with guns. A lot of them.

WG haven't added any sort of "serious MM" since 2010 in WoT and they never will.

Most cruisers don't have outer armor plating

I'm pretty sure 100mm of citadel plating can arm even Moskva AP, but I have odd feeling that nearly 1km/s shell velocity have something to do with shells leaving ship before going poof

Moskva fires double as fast and she already can overpen cruiser citadels. Broadside BB main belt (400mm) below 10km is also within AP penetration. And if we go with these charts, then even flimsy German 203 AP should penetrate broadside at 14km or so. And if thats not an option, German HE always is

So is 50mm amidships and deck, they way I understand it. Basically Moskva with BB grade dakka?

It has autoloader for main gun, 3 shot only tho. And you can make it useless simply by hugging its side.

Still, what was the point of gathering ST feedback about ships if WG flushes it down the toilet to push whatever they (or their marketing/accounting departament) wants anyway?

Personally I run reload mod, if you can confess to your waifu (ab)use islands on every occasion, its worth a try.

Why play Overpen Simulator 2018 when you can just sink them with sheer weight of 16gun salvo?

Radar had a ship, WG fix it.
