Ask support if they can help.

While its been awhile I had math class, 10 ribbons OP scored would be around 15180 damage done. Still not enough to solo sink a submarine unless it was sufficiently damaged before.

Replacement to your outdated overpowered battlebote coming soon to the armory near you

Bismarck is newest addition to the roster, you might want to hold your horses handing out brand new content like that thus old Prinz and Hoodie are a go for free.

There are only two multipliers: 1.0 for direct hit and 0.33 anywhere else within AoE. You know, equivalent of citadel hit and penetration respectively. And as I was dropping charges onto bot sub, damage was constant 1518 per hit. If there's damage saturation mechanic, I don't think so as I've yet to see other values than 1518 or 3036, where two charges detonated at the same time server glued damage numbers together But in three runs I had 13, 13 and 12 + fire/flood damage DC ribbons against U-2501 with Shimakaze.

IJN isn't that bad, with around 4.5k max damage a pop and still lot of them dumped into the water. Other nations besides US and UK are in much less enviable position damage wise. And if you want to witness despair when trying to deal with subs, check out Siliwangi Actually, Shima can "one shot" an U-2501 with just one set of derp charges and thats without even scoring direct hits, so main "lethality issue" comes from not knowing where sub actually is.

Question rather should be, which of the tech tree ships you'd want to have as "premium knock off" with pinch of weeb paint. Cleveland, Roma, Soyuz or Kagero? Which obviously also raises the question, why you'd want these ships when you get very similar boat in the tech tree and you could spend your money on more... unique premium bote.

Alternatively you can sell booba, just like WG can sell you an Alaska only so many times before existing stock of customers is saturated. Advertising game that lives by fanservice also isn't easy either, as IIRC most of 5th anniversary public ads I've seen on reddit were sanitised thoroughly? At the same time, generosity of AL (and to some extent, AK) bites them back long term. Mihoyo games, with Genshin in particular rake money like nobody business, despite being rather overpriced on the skins and their gacha can be summed up as brutal. 25-30$ for just a remodel of existing character, while AL charges sub 20$ for animated skin made basically from ground up + new voice lines. As for salvaging Azur Lane as a game/brand... I don't know. Even with introduction of "what if" designs you're bound to run out of ships to add. IIRC there was an attempt to make game into 3d form, but its quality was... questionable? Especially as "2d" characters don't translate that well into "3d" space. Visual Novels aren't my thing either, though I probably would check out chapters focusing on specific characters I already know. Paid nsfw "game upgrade" to go full fanservice? I'd pity the sod that would have to overhaul l2d skins alone and voice actresses now getting wall of text to go through, because doing so for all characters is positively out of the question, given how many forgotten ones are there.

Given subs can casually hit 33-35kts underwater, you'd need sub spotted live, "it was there 30s ago" doesn't cut it as I don't think anyone would cosplay Das Boot and lay low with their sub. U-2501 with speed flag and tier 4 skill, improving speed as battery gets below 50% can go up to 38kts underwater. With with right build, she can stay that way for close to 3 minutes. More as you use "emergency battery" consumable.

Then suffer from not having all available tools at your disposal, just as you have "shiet, can I go back and take Halland?" when you get CV game. Or "can I switch from Asashio?" when you get very few BBs in game. Besides, Shimakaze drops 32 depth charges, 2x16. Scoring only 10 hits shows you didn't exactly knew where it was, just saying

And yet, unlike main guns AoE for derp charges is rather substantial so postcode-tier accuracy is often enough. Issue of " I don't know where sub is" is solved by bringing Hydro.

Just because your HE shells deal 2100 damage, doesn't mean you kill enemy DD that have 18k hp in 9 hits, now does you? And just like regular penetrations, HE or AP ones have 0.33 multiplier, so does have depth charges with exception of direct hits.

Precisely, so you're not too effective to the sub making mistake and overextending Or just play Brit DDs with hydro to spot the sub and somewhat effective derp charges.

And yet, GC was deemed overperforming by Wargaming and removed from sales, just like other ships I've mentioned. Thus she was indirectly nerfed by giving her weaker ASW package. Secondaries aren't the reason you're looking for, as Georgia or Tirpitz retain secondaries and long range ASW. In general, ASW package or lack thereof is good indication which ship is overperforming in WG books

In meantime JP twitter of Azur Lane dropped Roon l2d skin announcement She looks suspiciously... serene. And classy as hell when doing so

And do you have access to internal WG documents to completely be sure of that? Otherwise theory of Yostar greenlighting Atago/Kaga rerun, but WG decided to not to is just as valid.

Which is conveyed in second part of the same sentence you've managed to skip

I'll leave doing such research yourself

Rather WG wants to play safe and to not include characters voiced by Ai Kayano OR they were told to do so by Yostar/Manjuu to not poke that particular pile of processed food ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ No matter whats the source, one of the most recognizable AL characters aren't available anymore.

Removal of "overperforming" ships from sales doesn't remove them from the game either.

Atago/Kaga voiceovers are still in game and I presume captains are still there, though stuck in limbo until Azur Lane devs/publishers decide to replace voice actress. Which might happen sooner or later, as these characters are rather popular in AL and no self respecting company would want to cut themselves from sources of income, and AL skins very often come with new lines recorded.

-collecting purposes, being most famous IJN destroyer and sole survivor of her entire class albeit of weeb variety -waifu reasons if you like Yukikaze in Azur Lane -being overall decent ship, and from my own brief Yugumo tests, F3 torps can be... exciting to use, "high risk high reward" kind of torpedo play

I'm not aware of any "looking for a div" forum sections, but there's in game communication channel just for that. Alternatively you can browse clan advertisement section and simply join their discords for company

Well, ship was introduced and balanced few years ago, when CV/Sub meta wasn't a thing

Kagero packing 8km F3 torps. Not the easiest to use with their short range, but can be disturbingly effective, just like F3 torps are.
