Good evening captains, I was checking permanent ameliorations one can buy for Ironium. I noticed that some of them actually include some maluses. I was surprised and I would like a confirmation. For example, Yamato guns amelioration include -19% in turrent speed rotation... It means turret actually turns slower right ?

Thanks a lot for this very complete answer :=

hey there, I got Amagi BB a few weeks ago. I got hull B upgrade and I am not sitting on enough ship xp to get gun's range upgrade "Type 8 mod 2". I read it is a good investment, but I have second thought : i find myself dealing more damage between 10 and 15 kms... What use is an upgrade that will allow me to shoot around 19 kms ? Thanks in advance for any clarification... :)

Thanks everyone for opinion : in understand it is not a game changer but a nice little bonus...

Good Day all I just moved to tier VII Japanese Battleship Nagato. As many people, I have problems facing overpenetration with its AP shells. I browsed the internet searching for advices and saw nothing very helpful. I am writing this topic to have some advices on how to score citadels with this ship. One thing I rode was to aim low on enemies ship waterline. Around here : Thats good but it does not do the trick for me. I saw on this forum https://forum.worldofwarships.eu/topic/59528-armor-penetration-curves that Nagato shells penetrate 500 mm armor at 15 km. I then checked the numbers on a few same tier cruisers and found that their citadel was typically protected by something like 120 mm armor making overpenetration systematic at this range. So far the only solutions I have found are : Staying far away from action so that I am at the right tip of the shells penetration curves Aiming for heavily armored targets Switching to HE against cruisers None of these solutions seem really good so I would like to get more advices Thanks a lot in advance

It would make sense that a shell travelling in a ship fly slower thant a shells travelling in the air, but as long as Wargaming staff as not said so it may not be implemented yet. I guess you sya it depends on cruiser acording to the targets size, but i understand what you mean. Any way thanks a lot ! Last batlle, I scored 2 citadels on an Algerie thinking of this discussion. Anyway. Fell free to add other tips and advices for Nagato.

Thanks a lot yo both of you, that's pretty cool since it explains some stuff I did not catch from how it works videos. I see here https://mustanghx.github.io/ship_ap_calculator/ that at 10 kms, the shells still fly something like 555 m/s so 555 * 0.033 = 18 m. It is more than the typical size of a cruiser but less than a BB. This means : at 10 kms, I should be able to citadel BB but not cruisers. Is that correct ?

Good evening gentle.men.women. As a novice captain, I am wondering what these strages structures on my DD are. Any ideas ? Thanks a lot in advance !

Thank you friendly informers ! Reading wikipedia article about paravanes, they seem pretty smart to me .
