It's the old A hull Amagi, and playing it just to get the current A hull (back then the B hull) was more than enough for me to know that I don't want to play it like ever again

No clue what he said, but I guess he doesn't like Windows? Well then, go ahead, get yourself a Mac. I'm sure you'll enjoy [not] gaming on that

Actually it states "129k Commander XP" so while I haven't done that yet I'm guessing it's actually simply 129k on the commander which finishes the mission. So you better hope by the time you've done those 5 wins you have at least tier 4

Point being it still took you a ridicilous ammount of time to notice something that's apparently a "massive gamebreaking problem" Can't be that bad if it took you so long to spot it Overpens already do around 10%, and apparently they still are a problem Every change they've made to BBs lately points to them thinking exactly that - stay close to max range and snipe, never come close. A bit sad really Oh no, a tier 10 BB has range! What ever are we going to do now?! The french tier 8 with 26-ish km is the one that you should be looking at and thinking "why tho?" not the tier 10s Pretty much every DD player out there. Your stats clearly back up the skill behind your claims Because it took you 2 years since the game going open for public to notice and start complaining. It has always worked exactly like that. WG noticed that everything works exactly as intended, it's just you who at one moment thought "wait a second, this does too much dmg to me" and started complaining. But that moment was 2 damn years long As I said previously - back when we still had the +/-3 MM I was executing DDs with BB AP if they ever dared to come close enough, and that's exactly how it works now. Yeah, every now and then you can get sniped from 15+ km and then come on forums to complain about it, but what you don't see is those 10+ salvos that didn't land a single shell on you at that range Replay or it didn't happen. Pretty sure DesMemes fires faster than the ribbons disappear, so they just keep getting counted together. Or are you going to claim that I can get 100+ ribbons in 1 salvo of a Fiji or Emden?

And yet those few months are way less than the 2+ years that the game has been here

As an extension of what @Darth_Glorious said: The best picks for other 2 BBs are KGV and Scharnhorst Their task initially should be to kill the 3 cruisers on North-East corner (altho now with the A.I. Aoba maybe 1 is enough?) Omaha is the 1st one around that small island, and then it's either 2 Atlantas or (on PTS it was a rare chance, maybe they have changed it for live) Atlanta + Cleveland The reason for those is that Scharnhorst is smaller caliber and KGV has sAP -> other tier 7 BBs have too much penetrating power so they just go clean through the light cruisers

I guess. Back when there still was the +/-3 MM.. while I was grinding through Kongo and Fuso - already then I freely executed any DD who dared to come close Imagine my surprise when suddenly a thing that was so obvious to me became a popular problem out of nowhere it's the balance between bigger (broadside) and longer (perpendicular) target. Broadside generally means more hits, but longer target gives the shell a better chance to explode inside Speaking of DD armour and BB AP, assuming you can hit a Khaba with a Conq -> her 50mm armour in combination with Conqs sAP can produce devastating shortenings for the Khabas life expectancy

Damn the 10 like per 24h rule!

that's the funny part imo, most people who yell Conq is op are those who have never played it... And those who state otherwise often have actually played that ship 1st step would be to load AP. Even in a cruiser. Yeah, that 32mm all over is juicy target for HE, but he will heal that. AP? Not quite as healable, most of the time just 1 full heal before he has to go for "panic heals" just to get health back

Much post, such wow 1 try, aced with 5 stars To be fair it's a bit sad that they have dumbed down the operation, it's way easier than it was initially on PTS Well, now I just want to get the full IJN team with 5 stars, just to go correctly with the lore

on a wide screen it looks just fine But yeah, placing them above or below forum categories probably would be a better placement

I really find it funny how it took you people 2 years to notice how BB AP wrecks DDs and suddenly it's a problem If you can search up some of my first posts / comments on Forums you'd see that one of my advices for BBs tended to be something like "Fire at DDs, even if you have AP loaded. Shaving off almost 10% of their health with 1 overpen is more than good enough, and there is always a chance to get a pen for much more dmg"

Played it once, aced with 5 stars. It seems quite dumbed-down (a.k.a. made easier) than it was on PTS. Shame, I loved the challenge it initially presented

This one: https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/common/slay-bells-ringing/ I guess this one is more for the WG staff - @Tuccy @MrConway @Crysantos December 1 Part 4 Earn 1,000,000 1 mil of what? Obviously should be credits but not added in there December 8 Let 'em Burn / Let 'em Sink Reward stated as "x20" with "Clash of Elements: [corresponding element]" below it x20 what? Obviously camos, not stated December 11 Spee in Action! Reward: "+10%" "+20%" "+30%" Not stated what in any place, presumably credits. Not stated how it's decided which one you get Ballte of River Plate I Reward: "250,000" 250k what? Obviously credits, not stated Battle of River Plate II Reward "5,000 + 'More Signals' Container" 5k what? Presumably - free xp? Not stated

Well, then again they have the worst autobounce angles (at least as far as I'm aware) at 67.5 degrees. But I can see your point on this one

Well that's the whole point of submerged citadel - you can't hit it at close range Amagi for example is almost impossible to citadel at sub-8 km range. Kii has a waterline section under the front turrets, that kinda nullifies the advantage. Also Conq and Montana as tier 10s have thicker main belts making it harder to get through

On Conq they maybe should just remove the 63mm sections of citadel roof at both ends, the rest of the citadel roof is like 19mm -> if you hit it you should get it

Most TKs come down to someones incompetence rather than intention to teamkill. Most often it's ships with torpedoes launching them from behind you, often while no enemy ships are even within the range. But as others said - luckily enough it's kind of a rarity in WoWS, at least for the most part. I mean you can get situations like I had yesterday where I was team torped 4 times in 3 games, but they are exception rather than the rule

Well, we're probably going to get the Advent calendar with "open todays window to see what overpriced thing we are offering as a special sale today!"

Was going to like that but I'm apparently at a 10 like per 24h limit, so here, have a What? No! The sAP is literally one of the best things about the whole line! Yeah, you are less likely to citadel a BB. Screw it! All the overpens you don't get and all the pens you score instead is way more than worth it

Well, that's literally waste of a perfectly good stealth build. I never understand why wouldn't you go down to 13...14km from your target if you have 12km detection rage, it would improve the accuracy massively But I guess that's just a potato thing

Or maybe learn to play? That would pretty much fix the issue. Conq has 47% fire chance, and after all the modifiers to tier 10 BBs (as those are the ships you mentioned) That goes down to about expected fire per 5 HE hits. Otehr BBs have that at about 1 per 6? Much advantage, such wow OP Heal? 2 things - it can not take a hit like any other BB could and the heal is rather easily countered with AP. Sure, take away the heal. But then adjust the armour to adequate levels. No chance in another BB? Amagi, Izumo, Missouri - I've had to fight Conq in all 3 of thsoe and let me tell you -> not a [lets censor this word] problem. And guess what - all 3 of those are tier 8 or 9, not even 10. Actually I've never seen more than 1 Conq per team, there still is far too few of them. This. Conq can easily be overwhelmed and bursted down by multiple ships. Guns are actually quite accurate at close to mid range, the derp kicks in somewhere around 16..18km And the heal - you will never get the cooldown below 1min 43 sec + 20sec active time = 2 min 3 sec. And that's with premium heal, Jack Dunkirks doubled Jack of all Trades and the flag that reduces the cooldown. Then why is noone complaining about Amagis and Kiis submerged citadels? Amagi has always had it completely below water. They really aren't that hard to hit from mid-to-long range on a broadside target, if you have loaded AP of course. People tend to forget that AP part for some reason Because very few people own one. Most potatoes still seem to be around KGV (maybe Monarch), so they are still quite a bit away from it. Can't wait for the ships average stats to take a nose dive whenever they finally reach it

What they can hit? Everything. Or sometimes nothing. Depends on your RNG really As for dmg - on most targets it will probably be some pitiful overpen scraps, but every now and then you'll citadel someone unlucky enough for a massive oneshot

I'll quote @Captain_LOZFFVII

Ahh, we separate those 2 :D Advent calendar is 24 days -> 1st through 24th December where (usually kids) open the calendar and there is chocolate candy inside (also we start celebrating on the evening of 24th, I guess that's why it's 1 less day) Advent itself is the 4 Sundays leading up to Christmas (altho for us it's less to do with Christ and more with pagan winter solstice )
