I would like to participate. Thank you for this kind offer. :)

A saturday afternoon doesn't sound like "out of prime time". Not sure Tiers IV-V count as 'rare' either.

I like co-op battles. I never liked PvP, in any kind of game, and I'm so happy with WoWS having a co-op mode. But it was dissapointing to see that many campaign missions cannot be completed in co-op mode, and I really wonder why. I'm used to games considering PvP as the 'better' game mode, or at least more popular, and any game I've seen PvP always gets rewards much better than co-op games. So I understand PvP is more challenging, and I don't mind that co-op battles get reduced XP and credits. Because of the reduced XP/credits some missions are already more time consuming to complete in co-op mode, but that's fine. I'm not a hurry. However, what's the point in most campaign missions being completely undoable in co-op mode? It's like the game is telling me to go do PvP, but why would anyone want that? I don't like PvP, and I'm not going to enjoy it. And I'm pretty confident most PvP players wouldn't be too happy with me being assigned to their team. I don't have the experience and skill to do well in PvP games. I don't have a competetive mindset and I don't even have the desire to win a battle (unless missions require me to, but I can just do several battles and I'll win one eventually regardless of my skill). So what's the point? It doesn't make me happy, it doesn't make others happy. Why won't the developers just let me progress through the campaigns at my own pace, in a game mode that I enjoy playing?

If missions get too easy in Coop, just make them harder? I don't mind if I have to kill 20 bot-controlled ships in Co-op when a PvP player would only need to kill 10 human-controlled ships. And a few missions can be completed in co-op indeed, but they're getting fewer. I think I got to Mission #5 of the Science of Victory campaign when I pretty much gave up about campaigns. Had to do a few PvP battles with simple objectives like "play a battle with camouflage". I figured that one was easy enough to do without any skill. I guess some teammates weren't too happy though. Would've prefered to complete the task in co-op.

How long do I have to complete the Italian Cruisers directive missions?

Ok thanks for your quick reply!

I didn't expect anything worthwile. I'm quite happy with the T5 Genova (which currently is my highest tier premium ship) and the T5 Montecuccoli. These two extra T5 ships made it considerably easier to progress through the directives. :)

Well, if my theory is at fault (which I wouldn't mind), I still have some chances to unlock higher tiers Italian Cruisers, which, once unlocked, would then be the highest tier of ships I have in my port.

I've got the Montecuccoli in my 2nd container, but no other ships yet. I wonder if dropchances are affected by the tier of ships I have unlocked. So far Tier 5 is my highest tier ships I've unlocked, so that could explain why I got the T5 Italian cruiser pretty quickly, but not the higher tier Italian cruisers.

It's the first time I actually can participate in such an event, and I wonder: Is there any point in buying more random bundles after the Genova has been unlocked, or would I be better off spending my Italian Tokens on something else?

So even my little Tier 2 Albany earns a bit more credits than the ordinary T2 ships?

So far I've only got the T5 Genova and Montecuccoli. Now I'm not a skilled player at all, but I do feel these ships are performing less than other T5 cruisers I've played. Shells seem to do lower damage than the usual HE shells, and I haven't been able to find a logic when it makes a decent hit and damage, and when it just bounces. At least the Montecuccoli has a better reload rate than the Genova. Genova especially feels rather squishy, more so than average cruisers. I'm trying to stay at a safe distance, but that doesn't help with doing some SAP shell damage. Genova's torps don't seem to do much damage either, as well as her secondary guns. But hey, I may totally be playing these ships wrong. I'm not skilled and don't have a competetive mindset. :P I do love the looks of the ships though, and the SAP shells look like pretty red fireworks when flying through the air. But that might be pretty much the main reason I'm playing this ships (and the Directives that can only be completed on the Genova or Italian cruisers).

First time I can participate in such an event. I won the tier V Raimondo Montecuccoli. I noticed the ship has no XP unlocks. The hull and gunnery mods have already been unlocked. What happens to any XP, upgrades and the Commander of this ship in the future? Can I safely invest time and credits in this ship, or will this all be temporary?

Thanks a lot! :)

Ok! Thanks a lot for the quick responses people! Much appreciated :)

Does the permaflage also affect the deck or will it look the same as without permaflage?

Considering I've only recently started playing again, I'm still playing low tier ships. Got a few Tier 5 ships. Considering anything of tier 4 and below is pretty much useless for event progression, I'm happy with both the Tier 5 ships I got for free. Does help me progressing the event a tad faster. :) I love free presents. And it's not even Christmas yet :P

Does anyone have a picture of how the tier 5 Raimondo Montecuccoli looks like in the permanent camouflage currently for sale for tokens? I'm also curious if it affects how the deck looks like?

Thanks for the congratulations. Not sure what I'd do with two Genova's though, so I think I rather keep my Montecuccoli. I hope the loot dice grants you more luck with future containers.

Thanks a lot for your quick replies. Another question, is there a way to see how the ship looks with the permanent camouflage which can be bought for tokens, before I actually buy the camouflage?

Currently it doesn't show it's follow-up Tier 6 ship in the Modules menu, but when I build up any XP on the ship, will I be able to use that to unlock the Tier 6 once the Italian Cruisers are released?

I'm currently playing tier 2 and 3 ships and the amount of times I got blown up by torpedos is getting me annoyed. Yes I know it requires some skill to dodge them, but they system is extremely unforgiving for new players and I'm really starting to hate torpedos. Can I expect this torpedo madness to carry on in higher tiers?

Just curious if XP rewards goes up as you unlock higher tier ships?

Hi all, I recently started playing World of Warships and I'm enjoying the co-op mode a lot. Although with random people communication is usually pretty limited. Would like to meet some more casual co-op players with a similar mindset. I play for fun and relaxation. Unfortunately as I'm a new player, my current highest tier ship is at Tier IV, and co-op mode seems to be the only PvE mode available at that tier. Any clans looking to recruit a newbie like me? :)

Thank you for the offer Marco, but I've received an invitation from another clan. The number and ratio of co-op battles played in the other clan was higher than yours, and with both clans having a similar ruleset/mindset, I chose the other one. I do really appreciate the offer though and I think it's only fair you know why I chose another clan :)
