This. The Lemming train is a proven well played tactic. The only thing with all the cowards in this game is stopping the train. The LT must push on. taking lead in turn and it'll devastate the enemy. The problem here is people are so afraid to damage their pixel ship the train is usually smothered before it can shine.

Looking for more "verdict input" on this ship. Now I'm suffering through a losing streak. I'm very curious to this ship. But suffering a Z23 and -52 phobia (I don't dare to take those ships out ever again.... Check my stats and know what I mean) I am extremely reluctant to buy this ship. Even if it's been produced by Wilton Feyenoord and RDM historically. Yes. It's THAT bad....

Don't mind him: he's a fake abomination...

Boosted him to 19. 3 points left. Intention is keeping him on the French BB line up till T10 with "tank build" So far: Prio target, Expert marksman, AR, Superint, Concealment expert and fire prevention. I'm in doubt. BFT, to counter some planes? Basics of surv for more fire "immunity?" Or Expert loader/ Jack. Or expert loader/ High alert? What's your advice?

Thanks people. I think I'll try different builds when I reach Republique.

Or would a secondary build be viable in the French BB line? For me it's working perfectly in the German BB line.

Relax bro/ sis. I'm only asking for advice here. Not to start a "opinion war." Edit: my goal is Republique. I'm looking for the optimal build for JJH in that ship.

Totally agree with you OP. Heck make it 130 but lose the stupid 4 enemy criterium. IMO the reward is for tanking. That insane number of enemies is absolutely garbage.

It could very well be my "luck" but since weeks/ even months I'm encountering pretty balanced radar ship matches. Some rare exceptions perhaps. But even then for me that seems quite balanced. from the feeling 50-50-ish on both receiving or delivering side.

Don't know if it's been mentioned. Didn't read the thread. My 2 cents: OP you have 927 battles under your belt, from which 799 in randoms. My guess is you rushed through the tiers too fast and aren't ready at all in any way for T9. Get the F back to lower tiers and build up more experience before wasting your own and your team's games in the high tiers please. Not to mock you: I made that exact same mistake myself.

I was only joking about that "don't defile MtG" bro.... Calm down please.

Wow! If you say you suck, I beat you by miles in doing so! I have oozed my way to current WR (52.4%). Coming from IIRC 48. My goal is to reach 60 before '19. (2119 that is...).

Don't start: I know I suck in the realm of sucking. Bu for the first time I made it to R10. Yes this hypocrite said he'd call it a day with rank earlier. But I had a "what the heck" moment and gave it another shot. Blown all my compliments to my teams. Really if even 1% of all my matches would go this way...

Last Stand not taken in a DD = Noob.

Yes... No.... Yes.... No..... Yes... Yes... Yes... No.... a.s.o.

I had my premium consumables (auto silver) switched back to regulars twice. Now I'm not 100% sure if I clicked the auto resupply function though. I'll keep an eye on it.

Thanks. Now I just defiled my monitor. Through my nose. I ask you only once: don't do that when I'm taking a sip!

Will you stop defiling MtG please?!

Already put a mental note: Stalingrad? Angle and give him a "Chernobyl" with HE.

OP, this a very safe starting point to get better. I know because it has worked perfectly for me. Always start questioning yourself first. Open a thread titled "what am I doing wrong?" Describe the problem. Or better: link a replay. And you'll be amazed. Despite your negative attitude I still saw golden tips for you. Why not try them out? What have you got to lose?

Meh. It doesn't even have speedboost, smokescreen and torpedo's. How the heck could that be OP, OP?

Somehow reminded me of this guy:

You're entitled for your opinion bro/ sis. And yes you're not responsible for how I feel. But you cut me here. If I didn't know better Id say you taking a opinion debate personally....

Nope. Not sure how long you've been playing. One of the biggest "s-storms" was a mission in the past to earn a specific ARP ship. You had to destroy 20 soviet ships to gain ARP Nachi. The result was that nobody wanted to play a Soviet ship during that time so it was a complete hell for people who wanted to have this ship in their collection. WG has even asked us how to implement good challenging missions. Because they want us to succeed, without giving it away too easily. To put it short: how to make a challenge while keeping our costumers satisfied? IIRC the main consensus was "deal X amount of dmg, destroy X amount of ships, cap/ defend/ assist x amount of caps" were our main advice. So nobody is "safe" or "over targeted." And yes: X can be a steep number to acquire. Nobody's having trouble with that. Hey, we all like a challenge. F.e. the Facebook mission: deal IIRC 0.84 M damage with a German ship to get a flag. I loved it. The flag doesn't "do" anything but I absolutely loved the challenge to win it. I also highly appreciate the fact WG has made missions doable for our Coop players. I think they represent a significant part of the player base in wows. And going back to coop for missions make me love the game even more. How hilarious those fights are!

My trick for Monqueror is to know when to stop being a supporting HE spammer on the "1.5-ish" line and start to brawl. Now, my stats aren't legendary as well to make that straight. But I think it's a hell of an all rounder. I agree: the 457's are a gimmick. I researched them because I had enough XP on the ship. So why not? But I won't buy them any time soon. My playstyle (not saying THE style) is to be a HE spammer in the opening and mid phase. When the situation requires it: go in and brawl. The AP shells are amazing too. Heck I'd pick a close one on one with a Curry anytime. He'd have to sink 2 Conquerors with the monster heal. Pressing T will print me another ship easily. Also nice trick: bait them into believing you're a HE spammer all the way: make a HE shot when they give you full broadside but click "2" once for the next AP salvo.... The only weakness of C is being focused out. That goes for all ships but especially for C. When the second neuron is starting to fire with the reds and they focus you out you're done. TL:DR. Spam HE in the beginning: harvest dmg. Either continue to do so or go in hard.
