Blyskawica: Increase the alpha damage of HE shells by at least 300 damage Give 10km torps since she can't stealthfire anymore A bit better gun traverse wouldn't hurt And give her Heal consumable in additional slot (so you don't have to take off your smoke) The way she is now, there are few tech tree ships that are almost as good as she is, and that can almost survive meeting her in direct 1v1 engagement, and that is simply unforgivable, since she is premium after all, and tech tree ships should stand no chance against her.

I'm playing stealth build even on my BBs, so I think that says enough about what I think of getting it on cruisers...

I'm not sure if my brain is ready for another dose of "Erm, hm, yea, we are monitoring the situation." And "Erm, hm, yea, I never tried this, but it seems fine to me." etc. But, lets give it a try...

Not sure if this could count as a clan battle, since it will be our first time playing together (I'm playing as a OSC representative) But, if you would like to see how NOT to play clan battles, and have a chance to get a shiny new premium ship while doing so, feel free to join the stream

And from this picture we can see that clearly its NCal that is in a dire need of a buff, while Tirpitz is a monster, and should get NERFED instead of buffed. (pretty much WGs way of balancing ships based on stats)

lucky you...

where is my "I don't care about either" answer?

Negative side of it...Scrubs were allready sailing broadside to your NC in range of 10km, but now instead of guns only, enjoy eating bonus 20k damage from their secondaries.

No, we are not!

DON'T SHOW YOUR BROADSIDE! Aynwhere, anyhow, in a t10 BB against t5 cruiser or in a t5 cruiser against t7 BB, it does not matter. Don't ever show your broadside, otherwise you will eat 10 times more damage then you would take when angled.

When they buffed German long range AA guns? (My guess that hes talking about that one).

Another big fat "F**k you" from the WG to the good portion of the playerbase. What, Bismarck could actually hold a ground against a braindead Tirpitz player, so you needed to make another OP p2w ship? This really makes no f***ing sense anymore. this game is going down the drain with every f***ing day...

Eh, when people start explaining to you ingame that you earn more money/experience if you don't die then you really start questioning some things But, I still blame it on WG.s incompetence as much as on players lazyness.. Game is out for what, 2 years(?), and you still can't find a proper explanation of ingame mechanics made by WG (AKA A FREAKING TUTORIAL OF SOME SORT!)

If you use ebay to sell something for 50 cents, and there is someone willing to buy few coins for 50 cents (note that kamikaze is ~10€ worth), then Jesus, by all means do so and earn yourself a huge 1€ for playing 5h/day...Or take a neighbours dog for a walk, and earn 5€ in 20 minutes -.-'

Yea, I couldn't belive my eyes when I saw it. This will push Yugumo/Shima from a "slightly OP" to a "Completely broken" category of ships! /s

6 months later and people still don't know the service cost is changed... No wonder the quality of the gameplay is complete BS even at high tiers...

I had no idea, but went to check just for the sake of topic (honestly, couldn't care less atm). And I'm sitting on 130 coins atm...

Not gonna happen because my buddy in BB will detonate you first I mean, that post of yours is a very nice way to degrade the quality of discussion... And to get back to a proper discussion, I LOVE my Amagi, I said it 100 times allready, I'll say it again. And I'm doing good in her. But, 1v3 against 3 properly played t8 cruisers, I would stand a little to no chance. Yes, I might delete one, heck maybe even 2 if its my lucky day, but in 9/10 situations, they will kill me before I manage to kill even one of them, or in best situation one of them. And thats what I consider a good trade for the cruiser player. To trade cruiser for BB is always favorable for your team (if the team composition is good, aka 3 BB 5-6 CAs). And thats why you once again rely (as a BB) for your teammates to help you, and for your cruiser to focus that cruisers chasing you... Before the games were like that, and teamplay won the games. Nowadays its decided by a coinflip... But, to repeat myself again, when you are 1 CA vs 3 BB, you can only snipe from max range (talking about 18-20 km in high tier games), or press back to port. You cannot support your DDs, you cannot support your BBs (I mean you can, but sitting at spawn isn't really exciting), your whole gameplay has been lowered to a max range HE spam. No matter what cruiser you take, its just that. I'd love to finally take out Des Moines, and go OUTPLAY someone, aka hunt down DDs / enemy cruisers by crawling up to 10km away from them and brawling with them. But as soon as you even think of doing something, you see the number of people aiming at you skyrocketing and all of a sudden 50 BB shells are comming your way with a "Devastating strike" written all over them...

"Normal" HE that deals 4-5 k salvos on angled BB every few seconds?While in smoke with hydro and radar up if needed? Yup, thats epitome of weak t7 cruiser.

Just to jump into this discussion. There are more then one (Dota being my prime example because I've spent a lot of time there) games that are earning heaps of money, while being F2P. And you know why? Because they are fun, they are BALANCED and they have healthy (read HUGE) player population. Why do they have huge player population? Because they are well balanced and fun. Either you pay or not, you are on same terms as everyone else ($ only gives you cosmetics). Either you play support or carry, its only the matter of your skill, and your teammates skill that will decide the outcome of the game, and not how much carries you managed to pick. If that was the deal, everyone would be picking carries, there would be 30/110 useful heroes, and people would get bored and leave the game very soon. Which brings us back to the previous thing. Exactly because of that HUGE healthy playerbase, they are earning MASSIVE amounts of money, even if only 1% of people is spending anything on the game. I know that even I, a guy that isn't really bathing in money, have spent some money on that game, not because I needed some fancy cosmetic item, but because I wanted to support the company, the tournament (Check out "The International" in Dota) etc. And with the current state of the game, and the way this game is going, I can't see WoWS growing a huge playerbase. Not if something changes fast. You can say what you want, that most people playing it are bad, casual scrubs, not knowing basics etc etc etc, and not everyone wants to be competitive player, not everyone wants to be unicum, bla bla bla, you get the point. BUT, it was proven times and times and times again, that people ARE playing the game striving to get better, they are following the game because of that PROS, they are watching the streams of the pros, they are learning from them, they strive to be like them. IF this games ends up (and its going that way) that the best players in the game (most skillful ones) can only say on their vids / streams "Well this is how you wreck things in WoWS. You pick a BB, you aim, then you pray for RNG that you will hit something, and TADA; YOU ARE PRO!", this game is dead.

And Belfast without IFHE still works wonders, so you can still train your RN CL captains on her without too much trouble.

Just checked it. My bad, you are completely right. Was it 2 weeks ago then when it required cruiser? O.o edit: yes, it was 2 weeks ago... My bad Mission: Operation C V Restrictions: Available once Operation C IV is complete Random battles, Ranked battles Once per account Any Tier VI+ Cruiser 2 weeks ago it was 40k damage to cruisers, 200 ribbons in a single game, last week it was 125k damage vs BB and 125 ribbons, and I finished it in Moskva... No wonder I messed up

In the mission description (Thats where requirements usually are)

Whoever is monitoring this game for the past year, PLEASE STOP! Because he is doing an awful job. (Or someone else doesn't give a f about his monitoring) Every f time its the same story. WG is monitoring this game, and then decides to do the dumbest thing possible to "improve" it. Just revert it to what it was 6 or more months ago, and stop monitoring / touching anything. (Except for adding more broken lines into the game, that always woks wonders)

Good thing you just explained how to properly play 4/4 classes that are in the game, except if we remove CVs out of equation, only 1 has most HP, best armor that negates 80% things thrown their way, biggest guns that punch trough everything that isn't another bow on BB and heal that grants you double of your already huge health pool. Oh, and did I mention the best torpedo protection as well?
