You mean you couldn't easily complete the Directives? Shame on you.

Today I activated both boxes, in the 1000 premium box I got offered the t8, in the token box I got offered the t7 ship. Chances seem good so far.

#top100 Did anyone count how much hours they had to grind the directives? My memory of the event is blurred in hallucinatory mist - sleepy, tipsy and tired after work, listening to lo-fi, shooting HE at the belts of battleships in coop to get main battery hits with Jean Bart. I dare Wargaming try make a better event than Puerto Rico - by far the most entertaining and pleasant thing to have ever come upon the face of the gaming world.

I like my Puerto Rico. Next new year it will bring me a t10 snowflake!

Plot twist: 510mm is the caliber of...... . . . . . . . . . . . . . the secondary guns. Main guns are used only for interstellar propulsion.

Done and done with PR grind. I have to say I'm enjoying the ship after a few games with it. I installed 50% acceleration and 40% rudder shift upgrades and it handles quite well, being able to swing all 4 turrets to the target while presenting minimum side. The DPM is low and to make an impact you have to play for potential damage, so not exactly a carrybote.

Greetings. The deadline for premium boosters is approaching and I haven't bought any. I am unlikely to do the final directive with the 350,000 experience missions. I would find it achievable if I had about 100 premium signals and camos in stock, but my peasant barn is empty. The 6000 doubloon booster makes up for that last directive, and Puerto Rico is obtainable. However, doubloons are scarce for f2p players such as myself, and I basically never buy ships from the store. I believe there are better ships currently in the store for about the same doubloon price (albeit lower tier), so if I start "spending" f2p doubloons for premium ships I am not sure I should start with Puerto Rico. Please leave a comment and a poll answer. edit: for a similar price a f2p player can get one of several fun ships in the premium store. Is Puerto Rico up to snuff? Happy Hew Year!

Hello, I have this issue with the hall of fame - the low amount of players will result in very few camo rewards for most of them. It is *technically* working as intended since top 100 is not related to the % bracket. It seems appropriate finale for the PR event.

Congrats on your new bote. I'm getting my Puerto Rico in 20 hours. Can't wait to start racking up 4 million potential damage per game.

The turret and torpedo arcs on the Blyskawica are terrible, those adjustments are welcome.

Sarcasm detected

Most likely detonation, for which the enemy gets an achievement. The other less likely option is the torpedo did a critical hit to engine and rudder causing additional damage.

Update: easily completed the directives, will have PR tomorrow to comment on the gameplay of the ship.

Thanks for the bote, good luck in the new year :)

I calculated it to be 120% the DPM of Alaska - 1.33 times more rifles, 0.9 times the reload. 20% is still a considerable increase, but most reviews emphasize the poor accuracy in comparison with Alaska, so "actual" DPM remains to be tested in live environment :)

I've finished D6, but unlikely to finish D7 (hence this topic). A youtuber mentioned a player that managed to finish Directives 1 to 6 in the first 24 hour period and buy the boosters, and he barely made Puerto Rico without premium booster and without having to play D7 (not sure what strategy he used). For directive 7, if you have 6 days to complete it, you need to make 58k exp/day in each of three tasks (two other tasks benefit passively). That is 2 decent wins with premium flags and camo (or 6 wins with the regular ones) per task. You can use tier 8 to 10 ships to get the benefit of daily reward, with 6 tech tree ships available per task plus any premium that you have and meets the criteria, so it can be somewhat optimized with a large ship yard. I personally think this directive is doable, but unfortunately it hits when the holidays are over and gaming time is not as abundant.

I have to agree with the OP. Stalingrad also Not OP, it get's DELETED if you show broadside to any ship with decent AP. Needs turtleback!

The best use I found for Alaska is as a troll tank. Maybe if WG makes a clan battle season with 0 BBs Puerto Rico can be useful in that niche? I share your overall view of the cruisers, and I do not enjoy Alaska very much.

I do not think 6000 doubloons is justified for a mediocre or dull ship, be it tier X or not, for a f2p player. There are better ways to spend doubloons in general, not on limited edition port decoration.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. In my case, 6000 doubloons can be put towards a nice t7-t8 Premium ship, or the discounted 1 year premium time. A perma camo for a t10 ship I enjoy, like Hindenburg or Moskva for example, would be cheaper. On the surface 6000 doubloons for a tX special ship may sound good, but for doubloons I am strictly only looking for fun and competitive ships, not for deals or port queens (lol). I grinded the directives so far because I wanted the Port Slots (f2p life) and now the 2k Coal rewards.

Please come back and leave an opinion after you get the Puerto Rico, it would be appreciated! Regarding stats - win rate % can be inflated with division play, the other stats - damage, exp, k/d are more reasonable measure for a brand new ship. And yet I am not looking for spreadsheets (TM by WG), but honest user feedback. Thank you for the input. I didn't make the poll this way intentionally, but now it seems I can check whether or not the player meets the criteria to answer the first two questions.

I completely agree with you.

Exactly, I am worried about missing a strong t10 ship for 6000 doubloons due to the limited availability. I am not worried about missing an average ship for 6000 doubloons. Thus this inquiry :)

Thank you for the reply. This is kind of what my question is about - I can get a special t10 ship OR I can get, for example, a Scharnhorst for a similar price (don't know the prices).

My 2 cents: Dockyard - 10/10. Beautiful and entertaining design to reward active players. Has potential for expansion. Puerto Rico as the first Dockyard ship - 1/10. The first ship should have been something easy for every player to obtain and enjoy, as get familiar with the booster system and time frame. I hope the Dockyard it is not ruined by more "easily" grindable "free" ships in the near future.
