    WG's Birthday

    Thanks Jethro_Grey You made my day after the click! Pretty OK on NA server I think - mixed offers. Single dragon flags etc camos not bad! But I would say it would not have been especially difficult to have OK offers here also -they must not be exactly similar but comparable which they are not close to.

    Captain Training for Premium Ships

    No doubloons or EliteXP. when you reset skills. If you retrain the captain for another ship you can use 200000 credits to half the effect of retraining then use Elite Xp for the rest.

    Perth on sale!

    Well I bought a heap of Santas presents to get Nikolai which I did (Gremmy I missed however) but the main reason when I buy is that I am a collector first and gamer last. But I judge them so if they have interesting gameplay it is nice, I bought Perth now for that reason.

    Season 8

    Yes 4 Nikolais and 3 Isokazes in each team. Sometimes one unlucky bastard in a stock Karlsruhe for fodder, which everyone calles Noob.

    What's going on with Khabarovsk.

    Well if enough bad players leave the ship after a nerf, but that should also been seen in number of battles etc, result distribution etc. In this case is the dominace so overwhelming so it is impossible.

    Ranked Season 7 Discussion

    Regardless if how you value youtubers , you can always do a metastudy, if you have a ship that you like to play and other says it will work fine it may be worth to try it, and OTOH if several/many/all are of a opinion that a ship is not recommended well it is not my first choice especially if they have logical reasons for it. But f.e. Flamu often guesses what kind of meta there will be and that also influences their judgement. I have played with Arizona and while it went smoothly down to say 12 , now when I am down at R8/9 the DDs are dominating. Even if I think I play decently I have little influence. But as she is the only ship I really like to play, I rather play her as I do not want to change to DD. I am not so good with it yet and I instead setttle for this level, it is the best that I have reached in ranked. Have played 100 games may play a few more.

    Wonder if the extract below from the news is a reasonable way to ensure that many veterans can grab the first tiers beforehand so not to have the German BB effect = 12 vs 12 BBs on day 1. Or if it just shifts it up the tiers, but I guess it will be better this way - may indicate also that the release is three weeks from 9th of august? Stay tuned throughout the month as we introduce more details on the individual ships. On top of that, there will be 3 missions, 1 for each week, thanks to which you will be able to work towards the UK Battleships before they are released, and receive them upon release of the branch! The missions are identical between all regions—be on the lookout on the portal on 09 August

    Battle of Savo Island rewards

    Good game, that is the trick, played in Zao and reached 197 so I had bad luck. The Yamato advice is also alright. Problem is when playing Zao unlike Mogami, you are always in T10 and while I have suddenly starting to get witherers and up to 100-150 K a few times in a dozen games or so, it is not certainly a figure that ensures a place among top 3 with 5 BBs a side. And lot of games while you might survive as top three damage wise but have difficulty to get 40000 dmg as the cruisers go first. You do not stack up secondaries with Zao exactly and you have to kite hard often. Mogami when after 10 games as bottom tier you might finally have a top tier game, you are more likely to have a good chance reaching top three if you manage the 200 limit. I think it is a interesting discussion, where the answer is differently for the average player at least. I might try her a few games, but as the reward is rather limited I will not spend too much for it. So I might try this weekend a few games in Mogami, Zao and Yamato.

    Perth on sale!

    Well I do not know I wanted the increased action time of 30%, as I thought it makes the cloud larger and gives better opportunity to break in time (to have more speed when you applying the cloud). The 5% shorter duration I find on paper OK. At least I wanted to try it and I have seen others have it so we will se. The ship is new and I bought so many T10s during the upgrade sale so I have not have time to play her more than a few games. But I thought that on paper this looks alright.

    How is your Dunkirk Collection going on?

    yes it is 2 today, saturday sunday + 1 more if you have Gallant
  14. True I play my Chikuma and Bogatyr with camo and prem repair =45000 but I usually makes a good profit anyway, I think these ships are far easier to raise above serveraverage however. Ishizuchi is a better moneymaker at T4 , as is Nikolai.
  15. With premium account and if you do not use flags, and have the server average, playing for first win I would suspect in the region of 500? I am just comparing with my T3 Bogatyr where I am around 700 battles and soon are on 19. But you have a premium. The first win effect is important, it will take more games if you grind her so to speak.

    Perth on sale!

    yes bought it, see what I can found of these modifications, should have most of them. I used one smoke on Minotaur, but I hope I have more.

    T8. Losing Money.

    RN cruisers are perhaps the most difficult line to play and get decent results in /playing their potential. But that should not frighten you , see this as a challenge but they need to play different. Fiji i s very strong. I went through T6/7 Leander and Fiji wit far worse damage results than WR , played Edinburg with radar then Neptune with not good performance, but returned to Fiji and made some really good games. Will play Leander and Fiji more now that I am more comfy with smoke use. Even bought Perth today.

    T8. Losing Money.

    It may be wiser to have a premium account and get 50% more credits and XP on every ship to play. As mtm78 says I can only concur with. You will need credits not only to finance your play but to buy new ships, T9 will cost you 20-25 M so you better start collecting credits and for that is T4-6 better especially for new players as poor games does not hurt that much..

    Well one could look it from the perspective as a long term mission/campaign to earn a ship. I think however it is a good idea to make some ships freeXP, sort of between Premium that you pay for and techtree ships. You can always pay for convenience (P4C) or grind or various ways there between, you do not have to spend Gold/real money, you can play to it for free. If they have ships that are odd accesible this way it is acceptable for me. Growth potential - I do not know they mix new lines premiums etc and they must have their money somehow, so it is micro transactions and premium ships/time. It is a nichegame, but surely RN BBs will attract new players.

    It is sad to hear that you have the FreeXP thoughts. Sure there is status among several to be among the first to play T10, but for me the grind (somewhat eased by FreeXp on Bhulls etc) that is the thing it is 8 new ships and in this case T3-7 as they are not paper which is interesting. I want to play them every ship! and I have the patience to do it the normal way. I have not the million? FreeXP (well I can naturally pay to get more) so I can not do it, but I will sure try to be ready fo the Nelson which seems to arrive soon as FReeXP ship. Time to start using my 777% Flags.
