Just a new stealth radaring cruiser .... you know ... just what the game needed!! But dont worry, there is also Plymuth that has 200 m between concealment and radar ..... And a smoke.... So why play Minotaur where you have to choose between radar or smoke when you can just give WG your paycheck and get a cruiser that has both. WG is really pushing out those Belfast copys at every tier now.

"Is this the worst state of the game ever?" WG: Hold my Vodka .....! But yeah, you could argue that. 1. CV Rework is still clusterfuck 2. New broken ships gets released 3. New Ammo for new CVs because all the rockets, AP rockets, AP Bombs and all the rest is apparently not enough. We need crap bouncing on the water as well. 4. Captain rework is complete clusterfuck. Cruiser dont know what the F*¤%k to take. BBs only has one, Dead Eye that is still viable and now WG will take that away as well. Because testing crap before pushing it to Live server isnt WG strong suit. 5. Dead Eye Meta destroys the game. 6. Cvs..... 7. More CVs..... So yeah, worst state ever.

But I for one, dont like ships to be balanced around what could possible happen ingame .... sometimes. Maybe im just a bit bias as a DD Main, but getting another cruiser that can pop up one second and then radar you the next and before you even reacted he and half his team is devestating you ..... that just poor game mechanics. I dont mind if I missplay and get killed. But when I cant with all my skill and experience forsee that happening and then im just dead? And meanwhile the rest of the team calls my out for "Suiciding" when all I was trying to do was to do some spotting and torp screening for my team. This is just shitty game design. Daring was already overperforming on pretty much all fronts and now they create a Daring on Crack?! I feel like they just stopped caring about anything other then just make a fast buck. With all these new editions to the game, why not just start selling Musashi, Belfast, Kutuzov, Smolensk and Benham in Premium shop again? What is the difference?! Its apparent they never test anything anymore and after the CC change they dont even have the CCs that cant tell them they are making a mistake before they release stuf. This!

Does it matter if you show broadside while sitting in a smoke and blapping the unfortunat DD with your radar? What this game needed the least was another stealth radaring cruiiser .... with smoke on top.

April fools is the name of WG´s balancing department. Not really like they haven't released OP/broken crap in the recent past. Thunderer ..... Smolensk ...... they even thought Dead Eye was a great addition to the game..... It wont need any heals. Will out spot pretty much everything at its tier. And when you finally spot it he will just pop 5 km hydro and his creeping smoke while he disappears and blow you out of the water with his boosted Daring DPM and 20 K damage torps. So good luck killing him.

Check out Potato Quality´s videos of Pommern in ranked and Brawl. Those are moste pre secondary nerf tho, but still seems pretty good. I will hard pass on Marco but Pommern is my next Coal buy, because T9, hydro, torps, secondarys, turtleback.

Is Notser a good DD player? I would recommend Maltese Knight of the 07 clan. He has a 240 K damage video of the Hayate. Pre cap rework build tho, but maybe you can get some pointers with it.

I need more Coal for my Pommern. Do you actually need the play Big Hunt to get this or is this for everyone?!

This! and Jean Bart, BB Alaska and soon Pommern. Cant really find a reason to get Marco.

Well, not a big mystery really. T10 Deadeye Thunderers and other BBs burning or blapping you across the map. T10 CVs that will blapp you for half your health in on strike in whatever class you are playing. What not to hate? Just had this game in my T8 Mass this evening. Just got robbed for the Kraken in the last seconds. So no CV, no DeadEye Thunderers or BBs..... Could actually Brawl with my secondary build! you know ..... the fun we all had before all this BS!

Hells to the NO!!! Im saving my Coal to Pommern. Marco seems Meeh A-F!

Yeah! Its a hard Pass!

I can't really understand what's the big fuss about T9 Marco Polo? Doesn't really seem all that powerful to me considering the Italian Tech Tree ships? Doesn't even get the smoke?! In another thread someone said I should consider it over getting Pommern, and sure I get that secondary builds is somewhat nerfed right now but I really think WG must change some of that back soon when they "tweak" Dead Eye. So, I see much more utility with Pommern that gets turtleback (somewhat), torps, secondaries and hydro at T9. But what is so great with Marco?

Think most of the playerbase would love such an event but it never gonna happen! Reason, WG looses money if players trade ships instead of buying them from WG. I for one would probably trade away my Belfast, Kutuzov and Missouri for a Benham. But that's just me.

Thanks buddy! Much appreciated.

Of all the ships listed I could only get the reasoning regarding the T-61 and Asashio, both very strong for their tier. The rest seems more like a desperate attempt at selling some extra before they take them away. I can definitely recommend both T-61 and Asashio if someone is playing DDs.

I understand its close to "Tinfoil hat" territory and I get that Flambass video isnt proof of anything but being a DD main I must say I have somewhat of the same experience as Flambass does. I LOVE IJN torp DDs like Shima, Yugumo and Asashio, but almost every game I play in them there is a T 10 CV. So lately ive switched more and more to play my Halland instead and suddenly there is no CV in my games ever, even tho you had quite many in the que?! So in my experience playing: IJN torp DDs = about 80 % CV games Halland = about 20 % CV games Max. I would love to know if any other DD mains (foremost) has the same experience with "random MM" in these 2 types of DDs? Considering how WG caters to CV masterrace at every turn I wouldnt be shocked to hear CVs also enjoys some protected "random" MM as well.

..........ok then ......

Sure, but considering WGś track record of what they released in the past, im not holding my breath here.

Yes, but my point was that your first claim "Look at the amount of premiums in the matches. People spend loads of money." doesn't really tell the true story when it's just ARP Yamatos and Dock ships out of hundreds of Premiums that only require real money.

Have we seen anything regarding the Marco Polo? Seems like many is looking forward to it but I don't know what the gimmick is? Escorting submarines? AP bombing squadrons? 20 km torps? Mines?

T 10 German DD Elbing with 8 km torps that does very poor damage? I hardly ever play my Z 52 as is, why would I ever grind this one? If I wanna play DD with suicide torps I play my Shima with 8 km torps that can actually devastate 2 T10 BBs in one go. T 7 Maass torpedoes at T 10 .......? WG, stfu and take my money ......... And please WG, lets bring in more Radar And Torps BBs, because that is more what the game needs.

ARP Yamatos and Dockyard yes. But last statement is just not correct. Most of T 8+ Premiums (as I stated above) you can get for free with ingame currency.

So what should I look for exactly? Most ships you can get for free by playing the game and gaining coal, steele, credits, research bureau points, free XP etc etc etc. You even gain a lot of doubloons just by finishing the different tasks and events and that paired with ship coupons you can buy most ships in the armory or Premium shop. So, what am I looking at here?
