Discussion thread for "some interesting info around the world"
creamgravy replied to Deamon93's topic in General Discussion
You can already do that with any 15" BB. -
When was the last time you played? Go spectate someone after you sink next time.
-
Huh? The spectating ship has torpedoes. Giulio Cesare looks like a nice stealthy midrange brawler. > https://gamemodels3d.com/games/worldofwarships/vehicles/pisb505 The slightly raised citadel looks vulnerable when at 90-45 degrees (220mm + 72mm) and you'll get the odd citadel from sniping IJN/US BBs at 16km+. Don't snipe and stay under 45 degrees agasint other BBs, all 4 turrets can be fired at 37 degrees, that's a good guide.
-
Vampire has superfiring guns with better range (10.1km) and possibly RU style shell arcs (depending on shell used, G101 has very high arcs not suited for long range gunnery. Vampire shells should be faster to 8km by 1.5s+) It's also stealthier, meaning your torpedoes hit noob BBs 3 seconds sooner. However, expect the usual RN DD trait of terrible torpedo launch angles.
-
A tech tree V/W with 2x3 or 2x2 torpedoes will be tier 4, think Fletcher and Kidd. Vampire is a powerful gunboat at tier 3, so no gimmicks are needed. Is it enough to knock the G-101 off the top slot? HE DPM. AA Torpedoes

I think they offloaded one torpedo set to improve sea worthiness as a short/long range escorts. The main funnel was cut down earlier for this purpose too. Vampire never received any real modernisation, apart from the half inched Italian 20mm Breda it's basically a crippled WW1 fleet destroyer (Notier 4-5) Many sites confuse her with Vendetta but the spec seems correct when looking at the pics. -

Nice, another ship for my J.S White collection! Shame it's tier 3, wonder what type of ammo those Mk V guns use. The ones on Emerald have a 4 second reload with the same shell arcs as Izyaslav. -
KGV 15" is straight up better than the gimmicky Germans. The guns are a big improvement in every department (placement, accuracy, HE, AP is virtually identical) No idea how it compares to NC or SoDac. Stealth + HE rail guns vs better AA + AP catapult.
-
It's a generic tier 8-10 BB with improved 15" Bismarck guns. Play it like a generic tier 8-10 stealth bow camper BB and you'll do very well. I'd swap back to the 14" guns if I could (£40 for DoY anyone?) 15" German guns on a RN BB feel very wrong and lack character, even if they're good. WG messed up spreading KGV over two tiers.

WoWs 2nd Anniversary Achievements List

Found another Easter egg. -
Please don't be true. PA DDs with radar?
creamgravy replied to Prospect_b's topic in General Discussion
Neither can Belfast ...but it's still the best DD. How powerful do they need to make Asia branded Benson, Fletcher and Gearing to make people play them again? For me they need 60 second Russian radar, defensive fire, German sonar and RN super heal. It'll be balanced because all those buttons would cause major confusion. Wasn't that the excuse for Belfast, people keep hitting radar over smoke? -
MM really SHOULD consider RADAR
creamgravy replied to RenamedUser_92906789's topic in General Discussion
I'd remove radar and all the one button click 'I win' consumables completely. Base gameplay is so good without them. -
Giving Lo Yang 108s 5.43km radar ****ed up tier 8 completely. It's probably more broken than Belfast in a domination environment and should be banned from ranked.
-
Took mine out for a spin for the first time since 0.6.9. Nothing comes close to the Nelson experience in WOWS, it's absolutely essential for BB fans (and yes, It's very OP) Here's a credits/XP for a standard tier 8 game.

Anniversary Supercontainers - I am so spoiled
creamgravy replied to xenopathia's topic in General Discussion
Congrats, some good stuff there! I got... 1 x Defensive fire mod. 1 x 50k free XP. 4 x 100 signals (all low grade, like fireproof) Think I'll keep my tier 10 ships this time round, buying/selling them every year just to play one game is expensive. -
Times up LETS DO THIS FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE SUPER CONTAINERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSssssssssssssssssssssss!

Warships 2nd Birthday Special [and Patch 06.10.1] - Lots of goodies
creamgravy replied to LilJumpa's topic in General Discussion
It's normal World of Warships Anniversary camo > http://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Camouflage -3% to detectability range. +4% to maximum dispersion of shells fired by the enemy at your ship. +100% to experience earned in the battle. -
I just beat the **** out of a Gearing whilst shooting down 20 tier 9 planes. Tier 7? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. (couldn't get the torpedo damage for the achievement though :p)

Warships 2nd Birthday Special [and Patch 06.10.1] - Lots of goodies
creamgravy replied to LilJumpa's topic in General Discussion
This camo is miles better than the New years one. Still waiting for that German port... (Kiel canal please) -
Not camping at the back but next to islands around caps. It's impossible for a DD to torp a well played BB/CA on a maps like Haven. Maybe map design is the key to make torpedoes more relevant? List of torpedo beta stats.
-
Old 20km 'super' Shima torpedoes? 2.1km detection + 67 knots + 20,967 damage = meh. Torpedoes are easy to counter, sail away from the source or use islands to block the path. How long does it take a DD to safely flank around a group of islands and hit a camping BB you from stealth?

creamgravy replied to LilJumpa's topic in General Discussion
WG EU needs to add extra code for 10 camo supercontainers with a 100% drop rate. -
IFHE on a tier 8 destroyer that has access to good AP and can stealth torp with CE?
-
Ah yes, a bunch of ships sailing broadside up and down at spawn not knowing what to do. iChase doesn't even have Situational Awareness. I wonder if any of those torpedoes would actually hit anyone today? Look how easy they are to dodge (the ones we have today much better btw)

So the terror of Tier 5 is finally getting a nerf
creamgravy replied to ajb13's topic in General Discussion
8 per side, 16 in total. Other cruisers don't get this raw power until tier 8-9. With 38mm bow armour you can troll lone BBs.
