It's a ~1.5 / 2 second buff in reaction time though ( because of their speed ). Still would use the Type93's though... apparently I lack the skill needed to use F3's

It might be a feature.. I alt tab during countdown sometimes, hearing the game start is a lot better then relying on the flashing taskbar icon ( which iirc doesn't flash anymore for some reason ).

Wake up, mixing tiers in divisions means EVERY ship in it is counted as the highest in the division, this prevents RIGGING.

Are we sure what this rocket barrage consumable might actually do? Maybe it influences the spread of an enemy plane attack? Ow wait, that would actually be why it shouldn't be on a BB in the first place Considering recent history, I am counting on the worst, and only hoping for some middle ground

It's in the PN's tuccy posted just now ( 30m ago? ), afaik it's only F3 and Type93 mod 3. F3 goes to 1.8km, edit:

12km torps go from 1.9 to 1.7km, haven't done the math but that should bring it in line with other nations in reaction time ( or very close, which is ok I guess since IJN still has the highest alpha ).

I thought they would be getting radar, as per the april 1st 'leak' on RU forum

We should ask WG for a premium DD which has a consumable which gives it BB armor for the duration........

Roon has good enough concealment. The only real issue of Roon and Hindenburg is the unreliable AP. Sure it works wonders on flat surface but due to light shell or w/e it seems to have worse normalization than any other nation.. even slight angles results in bounces.

WG plox is becoming a meme on it's own

I am more interested in knowing which config she is in?

I don't even think Roon / Hindenburg badly needed buffs... heck Roon is one of if not the best tier 9 cruiser imo. Would be much nicer if German AP had better normalization so they don't start bouncing the moment enemy angles a single degree.

Well Shima has a niche, but it was heavily dependent on bad enemies due to having highest reaction time. This buff will bring reaction time in line with others, so it will be the uber high alpha strike DD again.

You mean your prejudice? Seriously man, the message is more important than the packaging.

Lol this guy crying my answer didn't help, but liking the next answer stating OP needs a 10 point captain.

Doesn't work, or at least not always. Guess HUD bug and disappearing port UI bug are quite related, and both are not fixed with switching to full screen and back or vice verse.

Well the other big issue is CA survivability, but that is tricky as it's highly tied in with BB overpopulation. So asking for CA survivability buffs NOW and getting them, and then having class distribution shift to a more normalized level, would make CA survivability to high. Now it's a problem, as you can't track and angle against so many BB's, but survivability is increased so even while not optimally angled you mitigate a lot of BB damage, what happens when you always can angle properly since there are not that many BB's left? Which is why I still think the best solution is restricting BB's just as CV's. I know WG doesn't want to do that, but they didn't WANT to do that in the beginning with CV to. Or with arty in WoT. And both have happened.

Hipper was a struggle, but not because of lack off armor but because unreliable German AP. The Roon and Hindenburg are my favorite or one of my favorite ships in their tiers, didn't find much wrong with them i added an edit to the previous post btw, to indicate what I think the issue with IJN torpedoes might be. It's enjoyment, landing one good salvo and having equal dmg numbers as an average game in another DD is not really enjoyable, what is enjoyable is having reliable influence on the game. So if concealment buff would turn out to be to much in regards off increase in damage per game, I would rather trade alpha damage then go back to playing the lottery with higher reaction time for targets.

You're definitely on the right way there Thanks for listening to community even if it took a bit long. edit: and IJN torpedoes are tricky, they have the highest alpha of any torpedo and torpedoes are an alpha strike weapon so German DD's might feel more fun to play as torpedo boat because of quick reload making damage more reliable, IJN just felt like lottery. If enemy railroaded into full salvo, you got instant big numbers. but if they used WASD hack they would just cause frustration. If the dmg per game goes up to much, I would gladly trade alpha damage and not go back to higher concealment.

You can after you exit the division though ;)

1. Yeah I think Shima will actually probably be the best torpedo boat at tier X with lower reaction time torpedoes. 2. Yeah, I was actually talking just about tier 9 and 10, since that is what the changes are aimed at. So no, I didn't imply it would make the entire line more viable 3. It's sad but true, I would also say mid tier German DD's and top tiers right now are better for a torpedo oriented line.

Blah? Who plays Myoko with 3 point captain? It's YOUR prejudice which makes you think I was looking for PERFORMANCE indicators, perhaps I was looking for EXPERIENCE indicators? The one answering HIS question? edit: Lol, actually basically you said the same as me -> ... since if he had experience with IJN cruisers up to / including tier 8 he would have a higher point captain to put in his Atago. And yes, the is not a nice experience for him, but also not for others on HIS TEAM.

No, it's not worth it.

It was non existent. Well unless you made a reddit account. Sub_Octavian being active on this forum is a bigger step in the right direction then any game balance fix they could have done ( except limiting BBabies to 4 per team ).
