Here, have a historical sauce. It has all the data regarding IJN`s torpedoboats. https://books.google.pl/books?id=fXyXCwAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&hl=pl&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false

Not really, unless it`s a really low rock. Also assuming you don`t camp 15km away you will never get sufficent (better than a camping cruisers) arcs.

Oh well... Guess i rolled 1/20 during matchmaking... Sadly low tier DD`s don`t have much HP to farm...

Well then... Just like in real life you have to suffer to get to the goodies.

My best guess is that it`s an Izumo you have to endure on the way to the Yamato. Or ̶W̶h̶o̶r̶e̶c̶h̶a̶s̶e̶r̶ Worcester

Long story short... The outcry is caused by radar (and hydro) needing a rework just as much as CV`s & AA. I`d be fine with waiting 2 minutes rather than 10 seconds for a matchup if i knew it`d be at least sort of fair. And by fair i mean not putting (i.e.) 5 DM`s vs. 5 Zao`s, or 5 German DD`s vs. 5 IJN`s

And what about guided torpedoes? Unlike this *stuff* they are historically accurate (Kaitens)

Gearing with shima concealment, and hydro. How about no.

Akizuki, Minotaur, you name it.

Soviet bias? Still, i think the buff isn`t needed. Unless it`s a Yamato blapping you from 20km away...

You do have to get fuel for your ships right?

IJN Line: Good - Shiratsuyu, Akizuki, Yugumo, Shima. Bad - Mutsuki (Pathetic firepower. Worse even than t2 DD`s), Kagero (it`s okay-ish, but it suffers because of t8-10 mm bracket) Germany: Good - V-25, Z-23 46 52, the one with 150`s Bad - dunno really, they are all mediocre before t8, but none of them suck too hard. US: I gave up at t6. Guns have terrible arcs, but US DD`s are in general very self-sufficent (Defensive AA), and useful for their teams. RU: I`m at Gnevny atm, and i like it. mid tiers are rather underwhelming though. PA: Good - Longjiang, Shenyang (t4), Gadjah Mada Bad - none of them is particularly weak, but PA DD`s suffer from inability to torpedo DD`s therefore they are not as useful for domination games as other DD`s. Also t8-10 have an US DD guns, and their arcs. On the other hand you can stay in smoke almost indefinitely.

It`s so rare, that it doesn`t matter. Also in case of those few ships that can get overpenned through citadel you can still wreck them by shooting straight through their nose, or stern. This is how you get 6k volleys on V-25`s AP vs Friants. BB`s don`t need any mroe buffs btw.

Well i can hardly see the point of this thread. It`s actuallly one of the eaisiest Indianapolis marathon missions, but considering you have some issues with it, then it might be because of your playstyle in general. In my opinion you should sit back, and analyze how you die/fail, and then try and fix/change that. I`ll just say i got it done in the first game i tried it (used Montana though), but 70k isn`t really much damage for any, but lowest tiers.

Take a look at Mogami`s armor profile. See that big citadel with crappy deck, and brodside armor? Well this is your answear. Mogamis and high tier IJN CA`s in general are weak in terms of survivability, though they can troll their enemies at times. They are almost always sitting at max range, spamming HE for a reason, and you should too. And don`t forget to pray to RNGesus, because if the BB driver rolls 20/20 he`ll citadel you anyway because disregarding cruisers is kinda common these days.

at least there are no Misouris

Choose you square mr. BB player :)

IMHO only the Hindenburg deserves that nerf.

Radar is passe... Let`s give it "Extinguish all life consumable", that kills every spotted enemy ship upon activation. /ot Dear OP DM isn`t meant to counter BB`s. This is why you take citadels straight through the nose. If you want armor, then go play the Hindenburg. It`s firing arcs are also advantageous if you want to fire over islands, which on the other hand serve as your actual armor: And they got over 9000mm of it. Long story short: Git Gud, or Git Rekt

It`s a known bug. I reported it a few versions ago, but it`s not about a premium ship so nobody gives.

First things first: Get yourself a dictionary. Russian destroyers are specific. Unlike other DD`s they survive through mobility rather than stealth, and transition rather quickly (at Izyaslav) from a typical torpedoboats into pure gunboats with borderline useless torps. Take a look at Khabarovsk - nobody even uses Concealment Module on it (which is basicly mandatory on each and every other DD) , since there is no point to do so. It doesn`t even get smoke, because it`s commonly swapped for a Heal/Repair Party. I agree that mid tier russian DD`s are a bit weak, or rather they don`t fit "The Meta", but once you get to Gnevny the guns really start to shine. Don`t try to play your russian DD like you`d play an IJN boat though - you will fail miserably. Just go full speed ahead, and use the WASD hack ALL THE TIME while constantly raining fire on your enemies. Make sure not to run into multiple enemy ships at the same time, because no ship can really deal with a crossfire.

Fuso OP nerf pls...

Among all the standard IJN DD`s the best are Yugumo, Shimakaze, Akizuki, and Shiratsuyu (POI boat <3). If you survived Mutsuki, then you`ll live through all of them, just make sure to learn the new radar, and hydro ships, because there is quite a lot of them now.

Ocean, Okinawa, Tears of the crusiers... The list can go on. Also good luck running away from angry Worcesters.

If you hate carriers, then why not. I really don`t think it`s OP though, because if you get unlucky with map, then you are just a pensacola with radar, and worse guns.
