Nope. Seriously, you should go read why if x=y, then 4x=4y, or you will fail any math exam.

Well, I tried to be civil, but it s not possible with you. The only *edited* here is the one who said there are areas on Minotaur and Neptune CITADELS who can not be overmatched by FR HE. Maybe you recognize him. You are also reported. This is the only direct data for firechance that WG provides. Maybe WG is wrong too? Go sue them. Of course, I was not expecting the guy who made the huge discovery that you can not citadel Neptune and Minotaur with HE to understand this, but the rest? Using a simple data provided by WG, if x=y, than 10x=10y, simple math. If in WGs huge wisdom and vision the firechance/shell is 22% or 0.22, than the firechance/10 shells is 220% or 2.2. I never mentioned a formula or target, with FP, tier or whatever, because, amazing, WG also does not mention anything like this.

Yes, tell us again how there are areas on Minotaur and Neptune CITADELS who can not be overmatched by FR HE. I citadeled those things in game with RU 150 and 180 mm. AP, ofc. I m curious, how about you add it. Cos what I got was better on tier 6 and 7 for FR. Another strange idea, after the one shooting HE at Neptune and Minotaur citadels. Wasting 3 skillpoints to spec Demolition expert on a BB?! How about you add it. HE salvo damage is better on tier 6 and 7 for FR. Lol. It s WGs fault that this is the way they chose to show that data. Go sue them. If WG says a gun has a 30% or 0.3 firechance per shell, then 10 guns in a salvo has exactly 3 firechance per 10 shells, just multiplaying by 10. That you don t understand that any kind of formula works both ways, or same way for UK and FR, it s your problem.

Dude, just get lost, you re ridiculous. The only firechance data made available by WG is the firechance per shell. Go sue WG for the simplistic way they display their firechance, because you re contradicting them, not me, I m only extrapolating the way WG displays firechance data per salvo instead of shell, and you re still not able to understand it. Math and probabilties are lost on you. Dispersion in general and sigma in particular are not so important when shooting angled or bow on targets, because they are usually stationary almost stationary. I say again, you re ridiculous. You must feel very proud to have found 6 examples of armor thicker than 60 mm, however, ridiculous, 3 of them are squishy cruisers CITADEL armor, which no one except you will shoot with HE, and 2 are carriers lol, who will always brawl you only in your imagination. The initial discusion was if shooting HE with FR BB on angled targets is valid, and it is. You re turning it into something else (like always shooting HE with FR BBs, even on citadel areas of Neptune and Minontaur, lol) because you re too proud to admit you were wrong. Just go away, you don t realise you re becoming ridiculous

Yes, because bow on are usually stationary. There is a secret in all those videos showing you how easy is to citadel stationary boats presenting perfect broadside.

Dude, you re picking at straws to try to prove you were not wrong, and you know it. Stop being a sore looser, it shows. What you get as firechance as data in the game is this, quoted from WG, " Chance of Fire on Target Caused by HE Shell " aka per single shell, so of course to calculate the total firechance per salvo you have to just multiply fire chance with guns to see what firechance you will get per salvo. I ll modify my entry to make it easier to understand for you. Sigma? French HE is useful mostly against stationary bow-on targets or heavily angled who stall at slow speeds in order to remain angled, so sigma does not matter that much in this case. Are you trolling again? HE penetration already does not matter that much from 200 mm and up, who are you kidding? HE overmatch is /6 so starting with the tier 6 Normandie 340mm, it already penetrates 340/6= 56.6 mm, and the tier 9 Alsace 380mm it pens 380/6= 63.3 mm of armor. Even the tier 3 Turenne 305mm already overmatches with HE 305/6=50.8 mm!!! The UK 50% more better HE pen it does not matter. Your knowledge of game mechanics is amazing. What are you, a CV player?! Again, just take it like a man and stop being a sore looser, it shows.

Lol, I calculated the total damage and total firechance per HE salvo. If you have the strange idea that only the FR BBs targets have Fire Resistance Coefficient included and Fire Prevention Skill, then you re the one trolling.

Played Baltimore before it received radar and all the buffs, and even if I performed decent in it, it was indeed not a very good ship.

Lol, shut up guyz. He s right and you re all wrong. Actually, because I took the time and really did the math, on tiers 6 and 7 the French BBs are better HE spammers then the same tier UK BBs. On tier 9 they are equal (perfectly equal, strange) when the UK has the upgraded guns, with the stock guns, UK is worse than FR. Here is the math, per each HE salvo: Tier 6: UK: 8x6300=50400, firechance/salvo: 8x35%=2.8 FR: 12x4700=56400,firechance/salvo: 12x26%=3.12 Tier 7: UK: 10x6100=61000, firechance/salvo: 10x41%=4.1 FR: 16x4700=75200, firechance/salvo: 16x26%=4.16 Tier 9: UK: 9x7200=64800, firechance/salvo: 9x48%=4.32 FR: 12x5400=64800, firechance/salvo: 12x36%=4.32

I dont know if it sounds crazy or not, but I feel like the MM is foching me up more after I passed 10 k battles. It seems as if the system is thinking I researched all the lines I wanted, bought all the premium ships I wanted, I m not a top client anymore. Sounds crazy, eh? Anyone else?

Yup, I have 6 Spotting Plane upgrades in my collection, besides the 7th that is mounted on Perth. It is by far the most useless thing you can win in SC, competing hard with the Def AA upgrade, of which I only have 3,.luckily.

^ I can only repeat the WG official statement (not mine). Arty in WoT is a small child compared to carriers in WoWs.

Relax, I know that guy, he is never impartial.

Comma was invented for a reason, the rest is CV fanboy usual bulshit.

I can explain it to you. They used the same solution as when you buy a premium ship, which you will after gain in a campaign, as is Aigle now, so you will receive as compensation its value in credits. The problem is that Aigle and almost all premiums (or at least the ones winnable so far), had only 1 set of upgrades (turrets, hull, engine, etc), because they were premium ships, while the French BBs had 2 sets of upgrades (turrets, hull, engine, etc), stock and upgraded, and no one thought about this, so they compensate only the first, stock, set of upgrades, as if it was a premium ship.

Maybe WG can use this as a chance for a campaign to win this new captain, for the players who dont have him, because he is practically a new captain.

Of course not, those share the same slot. Yeah, i have 7 of them but only one Perth. Very useful indeed.

You can only put them on tier 9 and 10 cruisers, not on DDs, not on BB (Missouri).

I would go CE and RPF, SI and Vigilence (you may have to fight a DD when flanking), EM and AR, which leaves only one tier 1 skill of your choice, probably PT or IFA.

That s because people are afraid to call bulshit on Flamu. As my clan Des Moines player in CW, so in a game where almost 60-70% of the ships are cruisers, I maybe get 1-2 citadel hits per game, and that s against cruisers. Because of DM shell arcs when aiming at moving targets and because they will angle after the first citadel. In the mean time, any BB with 400+ mm guns will pen DM no matter how you angle, and because of the dispersion the BB will reliable citadel an angling and dodging DM in arround 3 salvos (even 1st one if he s lucky, or DM is surprised stationary, from my experience). So in a real game, that Republique would easily citadel DM first.

The last and the most recent buff for a ship was for a BB, Gascogne getting 2 seconds shorter reload. All the nefs to the other classes (AFT nerf. stealth firing nerf, smoke nerf, etc.) were indirect BB buffs. Even the recent Detonation change is again a BB buff, because cruisers and destroyers instant death is caused not so much by Detonation, but by Devastating Strikes from BB (with the amazing BB AP on DDs efficiency)

Well, I did win 2 French BBs from the free regular containers dropped from the first 2 missions from 2 weeks ago. But you don t really need Aiglen or tier 8+ French battleship, because: 1. First mission which can be done with any ship tier 5+ gives you 1 star. 2. Second mission which can be done with any French ship tier 6+ gives you 2 star. (and it seems correct that a French related campaign should motivate the players to play French ships) Just repeat these 2 missions for 3 more stars and with 6 stars and you ll complete each stage.

Nah, dude... When entering battle, to be able chat to all "I m here only to show off my cockk" "Please don t target my cockk" and so on is priceless. Also, it makes ramming kinda kinky.

He used to be more reliable in the past, now his predictions were wrong quite a few times.

I used a full spec secondaries (10.6 km) Richelieu the same way, with 200+ ribbons per coop game. You must have Richelieu, but you also do the BB missions in the same time.
