When radar was first introduced the cooldown was much longer (iirc same as spotter plane). Since there are more ships with radars nowadays it could be a good solution to go back to the original cooldown time.

Smoke them outside of enemy radar range. If your support has radar, smoke them so they have radar range for the cap. Make the smoke as large as possible, smoke to an island if available so they have an easy out. Sit with your aft to the enemy (move back and forth not actually sit) so you can spot and dodge torpedoes for your smoked teammates easily. It's advisable to announce your smoke in chat or with quick commands. Some potatoes are potatoes and just sail through your smoke into the cap and die in 30 seconds, you don't want to waste your smoke on that. Radar ships are predictable, they like to sit in 'their spots'. Use that to your advantage to stay out of radar range, keep them spotted or to torp them into oblivion.

Nö, ich weiß gar nicht dass Du mit Radar fährst. Mach ich übrigens auch mit der YY, ist böse gegen Ahnungslose. Die nebeln dann immer so schön für Dich! Es ist schon seit zwei Wochen wie verhext. Du machst Deinen Teil und währenddessen sterben 8 Leute weg in 6 Minuten, gg. Entweder man wird überrannt oder man überrennt den Gegner, keine wirklichen Gefechte. Gefühlt spielt ein Team immer 6 gegen 18. Hier war es wieder lustig. Wir haben den Vorteil, ihr habt 0 Caps. Und was ist? Beide Conquerors müssen unbedingt in eure Shima pushen. Man kann den Vorteil nicht halten. Man muss unbedingt ins Kreuzfeuer fahren, damit der Gegner danach in Überzahl ist und über uns hinwegrollt. Ich habe gar nicht mitbekommen was bei C abging, ist wahrscheinlich auch besser so. Wird Zeit für ne Pause von WoWS. Die Hitzewelle kommt da wie gerufen.

Das glaube ich. Ich hatte mein Hirn schon auf Standby und habe mich auf dem Silbertablett serviert. Na ja, für die Indi-Kiste brauchte ich ja nur eine Teilnahme am Gefecht. Wäre aber schöner gewesen gegen Dich zu kämpfen. Beim nächsten Mal strenge ich mich mehr an damit es zum Duell kommt. Versprochen!

Go to your game folder, open 'preferences.xml' with a text editor like notepad, search for '</net_credentials>' (hotkey Ctrl-F) and paste the following two lines: </net_credentials> <isReplayEnabled> true </isReplayEnabled> <ReplayCameraUpdate> 30 </ReplayCameraUpdate> Play one battle and a replay will be saved in the Replay directory in the game folder. To watch a replay open it with the WoWS.exe (right-click on replay, select 'open with ...'). There are also mods for that if you like to use them. I played only one battle with the Hood. She is very strong when she is top tier: 20180722_032526_PBSB507-Hood_41_Conquest.wowsreplay

How would more range prevent me from close range fights? AFT gives more options, that's it.

I'm playing against your average BB player.

Quite the contrary. If you can't hit BBs at max range with AFT the ship probably isn't for you.

She isn't useless without IFHE. I also grinded a full AA captain for my DM, so no IFHE. You rely more on fires, you don't need IFHE for soft targets like DD and CL. IMO AFT is a must, CE helps greatly with your winrate because your radar becomes more powerful and IFHE only gives you the possibility to melt some targets quicker.

Not really. I used her to train a new Cleveland captain from 10 points to 19. Get AFT, be very careful about your positioning and . The maps at tier 7 are very forgiving, you can do well without concealment expert. T9 Okinawa is terrible no matter how many captain points you have, hopefully you won't see it often.

Hatte heute @Sayuri_Mizui im Team. Es war gar nicht so einfach zu gewinnen, zum Glück wusstest Du im Gegensatz zu mir wie man Kills sammelt.

Ich würde sagen es ist Geschmackssache. Ich nutze das statische und schaue fast gar nicht mehr auf die Zahlen, ich ziele nach Gefühl. Mit der festen Skalierung funktioniert das für mich, eine sich ständig ändernde Skala würde mich durcheinanderbringen.

An 200% und 300% Wochenenden macht auch ein T2 Schiff ordentlich XP für den Kapitän, zumindest für das Umschulen auf ein neues Schiff kann man das gebrauchen. Viele von diesen Schiffen konnte man sich erspielen (Missionen, neuerdings Kohle) und wird das in Zukunft wahrscheinlich immer noch tun. Unter Stufe 5 ist Dein Kapitän sowieso egal, man kann auch ganz ohne Skillpunkte gut mitfahren. Es könnte sich lohnen das Geld zu sparen und sich später ein T5-7 Schiff zu holen wenn Du dafür bereit bist. Oder im Summer Sale kaufen und erstmal nur im Hafen bewundern und COOP spielen, das geht auch.

Wasn't my best day but wasn't my worst either. I played a lot of Gearing, can't remember every battle. However I do remember being hit by BBs including an Alsace. She is one of the strongest tier 9 ships and a lot of fun to play, definitely a keeper.

Every ammo type has strengths and weaknesses. If you have only angled targets you are in the wrong position. Like the post above says: brain, map awareness, positioning. RN cruisers are a bit like DDs: Sneak up, strike quickly (sometimes even devastating), vanish. Or get into the flank of a sitting blob and farm them for the duration of your smoke. You don't need fires, that's for witherers like Zao, Henri, Khaba.

Low damage isn't bad if you focus on DDs a lot. That would be a huge nerf. If they got HE they would have gotten normal AP instead of the crazy OP sAP. Just compare Belfast AP to Fiji. How I play my beloved Fiji: Beginning: Follow your DD and eliminate the enemy DD with 3-4 5k-salvos. If there are no DDs in the battle: Congrats! You are a DD. Use islands and smokes (own and others) wisely, make sure you have multiple broadsides to shoot and they have to be detected by your team (DDs, planes, others). You can spot BBs yourself when they shoot (smoke 'nerf' FTW). Aim high like if you were shooting a BB broadside with DD AP. If you have only one angled target in range, aim really really high. Or just stop shooting and move into a better position. Compared to Neptune and Minotaur the Fiji is quite tanky and maneuverable, you can play in the open in some situations.

There is no information about HE penetration in port, you can look it up in the Wiki here: So when you know how much penetration your shells have you can check with the armor viewer in-game which parts of a ship will be penetrated. Rule of thumb: 150 - 180 mm --> IFHE helps. 203 mm --> IFHE only reduces your fire chance for the cost of 4 captain points. Some ships need IFHE badly, for example Akizuki (this might be obsolete in a couple of updates), high-tier US CL i.e. Cleveland, Seattle, Worcester.

You played 160 battles, you have zero battles with destroyers, you are at a too high tier imo. Take your time to learn the game at low tiers, it's not exactly easy against tier 8 and later with Amagi against tier 10. Your low hitrate with Kongo and Fuso suggests that you play at long range all the time which isn't helpful for your team. This might be the reason for the sub 50% WR with Kongo. The higher you go the more punishing is the game play. Git gud or starve of credits. Decent players earn credits with tier 7 and 8. If you struggle at tier 6 you clearly aren't ready for this tier yet. My advice: Take your time and try all ship classes, i.e. light cruiser, heavy cruiser, gunboat DD, torpedo boat DD up to tier 5. This will teach you how to play against these ships when you play your BB. Or buy premium account and premium camo for Yamato and derp with 40% winrate, it's your life.

Ich bin am Ende wie ein Blöder reingefahren nur um die Fletcher zum Leuchten zu bringen, es hat uns beide das Leben gekostet. Dafür habt ihr A nicht bekommen und die Punkte haben zum Sieg gereicht. Danke, dass Du mich mal gewinnen lässt.

Hatte ich auch, erst ab dem dreißigsten oder vierzigsten kamen dann 3 Boote fast hintereinander. Ami-Kisten bisher kein Glück gehabt. Die Hoffnung stirbt zuletzt!

Oh come on, tell us the real reason why you don't want to sit down for the next few days, don't be shy. ;-)

@EdiJo 3/4 of a cap, not 3 of 4 caps so you can get 3 resets in one salvo.

Yes, it's fixed for me. Thank you.

Easy with the Black. Or any other radar ship. Let them get to 3/4 of a cap, radar, win the battle.
