if it's really bad (as in, racist drivel, truly epic streams of insults and the like), you can also send a report with screenshots to Support directly - in serious cases, they are able to take direct action as well.

so... why use that crap in the first place? Why not just play the game without giving yourself an extra reason to [edited] and moan because "boohoo game is lost/won anyway, MM Monitor says so"?

I'd maybe make them more accurate (and possibly the 419mm a bit less accurate at the same time, to make the two more distinct) - maybe Graf Spee dispersion ellipse (but without Stalingrad levels of Sigma) on 30s reload and 8 barrels? No idea whether that'd be too much tbh...

reality check needed here it seems... OP, with his 1900 games, is already better than you with your 8400 (and yes, including recent performance)... so yeah...

welcome to every torpedoboat in the game (except point-blank yolorushes) - it's not like someone needs to spot your torpedoes in the first place to dodge them...

not bad, not bad sir!

oh please do share your "serious thoughts" about this... I'm curious...

there aren't enough around here to do this any kind of justice... but yeah, if someone is dumb enough to think this, then the Bourgogne isnt worthwhile... I'd say they're both equally worth getting - they're both different and powerful enough to be interesting additions to pretty much any port lineup. I picked Bourgogne because I despise the Moskva playstyle - a cruiser that gets consistently outspotted by BBs just isnt for me, at all, no matter how strong it is. Bourgogne on the other hand is a bit of a BB-sized Zao - relatively stealthy, low HP pool, and deadly in the extreme when it catches someone off guard. That kind of semi-assassin playstyle (although Bourgogne can certainly also just lead a charge with her crazy speed and still vaguely BB-sized HP pool) is just fun for me.

User Error in this case, as Shade pointed out you really need IFHE on these. Or use mostly AP until you have it.

the simple fact that you're driving a Des Moines and still refer to those "concealment scores" shown in port tells me that you really really REALLY need to educate yourself about how Concealment (and probably a lot of other mechanics in this game) work... WG's own How It Works series on Youtube is a good place to start, give that a watch and then feel free to throw any questions you might have our way.

if I recall, WG somewhat recently auto-enabled replays so you wouldn't even have to do anything - just check your {WoWs install directory}/replays folder. And hey, if you take @Allied_Winter's post and mine together they're actually somewhat complete and helpful. That's what I call teamwork!

something something Be careful what you wish for... If you want more detailed pointers about how you can improve your Shineyhorse gameplay beyond just the setup, you can always try posting a replay or two of a "typical" battle of yours (best not to cherrypick the best ones, tempting as it may be^^) - there's usually one or two veteran forumites with the time to give that a watch and throw a few comments and hints your way

that was just me being a derp - and doesnt make a shred of difference for the HE pen anyway considering the lack of specifically 64mm thick armour plates...

63.33333 to be exact - 380/6. So yes, correct. The Grand Old Lady comes from a day and age where Royal Navy Battleships weren't stupid didnt get improved HE pen yet.

ever looked in a mirror? yes, like you.

a good description of yourself here, hats off to you sir...

except there's also a different kind of Balance at play here - their bank account...

try aiming a bit lower - hitting the water just before the ship can arm your shells, which then travel onwards into the ship and explode there. Not terribly reliable, but better than firing HE in a Yamato...^^ (all depends on the situation of course, like how much HP the guy has left etc)

oh wait, Conkek is a thing...

okay, really stupid question but I must've completely missed that... changes to bloom time? anyone care to enlighten me real quick?

same here, although I'm probably going to take a break from Warships for the first month or two, let the dust settle, give WG time to sort out the biggest of the inevitable balancing flaws - and then judge something approaching the "final product"

thanks for telling us, I dont think anyone would have noticed otherwise

remove main guns but leave everything else as is (including ManSec working as if it werent low tier), and you'd actually be in business with that lol
