Da wir regelmäßig am Wochenende Clan Battle spielen möchten, wären Freizeitkapitäne mit entsprechendem Interesse sehr willkommen!

Hello, after the patch our Japanese destroyer captains have received a nice new skill at level 3 (torpedo speed up). Thank you! However by moving the very useful skill "last stand" from level 4 to level 2 you made it cheaper at the first look, however this move leaves level 4 without any useful skill to Japanese destroyer captains and the level 2 range has now 2 obligatory skills for any Japanese destroyer captain. This means you basically force us to invest in a second level 2 skill before we reach level 5. As we still have to invest 4 points in a useless level 4 skill before we can get a lvl5 skill. That are 2 extra points which are suddenly required to be invested before we get to lvl5. I would like to suggest and request to move the skill "last stand" back from level 2 to level 4. I don't know if the shifting of that skill was really intended to be a "gift" or if you wanted it to be a "hidden extra burden" on our way to reach the level 5 skill. Maybe you also wanted us to choose between "torpedo armament expertise" and "last stand" and we are not supposed to get both skills together if we ever want to reach level 5 in a reasonable amount of time. If that is the case, I am sad that you did that. From my point of view moving "last stand" back to level 4 would balance the leveling difficulty for us Japanese destroyer captains back to pre-patch standard with the nice addition of the new skill "torpedo acceleration", which we gladly accept as alternative to "supterintendent". The introduction of the new skills could have been great, but with the move of "last stand" from level 4 to level 2 it got a bad taste. Thank you for your consideration!

You are all correct with what you say. However as an experienced player of Japanese destroyers I say all current level 4 skills are useless to us due to the nature of our special role as stealth torpedo-based DDs. It really hurts me to invest those 4 points just to get onwards to level 5. I chose the extra HP skill now, but it's really unnecessary for us. If I play well, I won't be seen and I won't take any damage. This skill is a "safety"-skill for if I screw up. I would never take it if I could get "last stand" on the same level. Well, I will get along with the skill setup and will get the level 5 skill earlier or later. But this change after the patch costs me hundreds of extra games to reach the level 5 skill with that captain and that is frustrating. I wish they would change it back.

Hello, today I noticed some anime graphics at the mission overview ingame. I dislike this. I assume this has something to do with the recent patch that introduced "Arpeggio of Blue Steel (Ars Nova)"-content into the game. The patch notes mentioned that it was possible to completely disable that content. Well, I would like to completely disable this. How is it that done? Please give a guidance. Thank you!

Hello, I really appreciate that I can add people to an ingame blacklist who I do not want to see again ingame. That's great! Thank you for that! However the only way to do that, as far as I know, is to add them via the chat menu in the port screen. That is somewhat tedious, as you always have to remember or look up the players from the last match that you would like to add to the blacklist and then enter their name to add them. I would like to suggest to add an additional option like "add to blacklist" to the right-click menu on the team overview screens during a match and afterwards (team results). There is already the right-click menu where I can report people for "plays poorly" or I can "compliment" them. I think it should be easy to add the option "add to blacklist" to that right-click menu. Please do that! It would improve the gameplay for that part tremendously! Thank you!

When this "feature" is introduced to the game, I can only hope that it is disabled by default and must be activated manually (by those few who really care about it). When I started playing WoWs I expected an authentic warships simulator and if I had seen *that*, I was really scared off. This is a no-go for simulator fans like myself!
