Use range mod?

I have 300k in first run of Narai, en par with what I get from Sinop or Lyon in it, both of which are ok damage dealers, will try her out in randoms later today...

Thats Hyuga, the T7 Ise class BB, this thread is about Hayate, a T10 DD

Same here, originally I was not thrilled but she is another class to Fuso even if very similar and a real boat at that...

Dying - yes, dead - not just yet and it wont be shut down any time soon... I mean WG is kinda attempting to at least pretend they are taking a new direction (leaving the opening for balancing all future premiums for instance) but the problem is they base the entire game developement on escalating the "microtransactions" more and more and that alienates more and more of the playerbase, subs will likely bring a short burst of life when they cater to the laud weekenders yelling for them, adding subs will keep their interest for a few weeks/months and then the game is going down the WOWP path as most veterans will have left at that point and the weekenders will find some other game of interest as always... As all to often a great idea getting ruined by beancounters and poor management decisions

Thats T6 comrade

M8, you have 2650 PR with 90k damage, that kinda tells the story of an AVERAGE player in that ship, they muster probl about 1/3-1/2 of your average and 30-40k average is hardly a feat in a T10 gunboat, I am not saying one cant do good I am saying that in current meta you are at a mercy of your team to smoke farm stuff, all too often I get to be unable to farm even when front in a DD fit to be there such as say Vampire because all the rest of the team is 15km behind and isnt spotting anything let alone with a DD that has to be more stand off-ish besides you said it yourself this is WITHOUT LU meaning you stil did some spotting...

WG should just drop the pretense of "unified secondaries" (and main guns for that matter) as it really doesnt exist anymore, there was nothing wrong with some ships having some sec guns fire AP and some HE with adding SAP on Napoli "all sec are HE" doesnt exist anymore anyhow, ships should be treated individually, maybe even allow to choose the ammo type for sec and balance basic range and dispersion separately for each choice...

The coop only punishment or PvP only ban is already in the game, only difference is now one gets it ONLY through the automated system ie team damage, tk or afk for too many times...

Lets just not forget that sap means no fires...

No, no ip bans!!! Many people still use non permanent ip connections whose ip adresses change upon reconnect or every 24h, only thing achieved after a while will be that people that had nothing to so with the offender will be unable to connect to the server if they end up with the blacklisted ip, not to mention the ta*d can just reconnect and keep at it, they shoud get slapped with increasing coop locks or account specific bans, even if some make more accounts and repeat the process after a while they will grow tired and find some other community to pester...

I understand there can be a smudged line between something being recognised as grefing or fixing match results and honest mistakes in some cases but if CS recieves a report and sees evidence in it of such behaviour at least the player in question should be put on some kind of a list to obetve them more closely and recieve an ingame message from WG about it and should multiple such observances be seen it should result in pregressively longer bans on all PvP modes same as if they AFK/TK too much...

All long duration smoke farming as a DD usually fails on the fact someone needs to spot the targets and since you are in the smoke it cant be you, unless playing in a division its hard to get real mileage from any of those ships...

Yea that Florida guy really was something...

Well truth be told what else can you do in that situation? I mean if you are already being shot at from multiple directions because the cover is inadequate staying there only means they will have an easier time to zero in on you and if you cant turn which is usually the case in that situation or you woulndt be in the bad cover position anyway what else is there to do but try to stay angled and sell your skin as expensive as you can, that usually involves using torps or doing a drive by both of which usually mean you need to get closer...

True but since these are not sold in normal cases (IIRC we had them in one summer sale and that was it) WG doesnt really stand to gain much by volume... Also IIRC I got Hood from mine and she is quite high in the value dept

I dont think there is a shortlist in these

I dont have Daring now as the line is reset and I am at Jutland now but I did play Daring in the past... Now the bad thing is - no heal, yes you can play around that to a degree besides most DDs in T10 dont have heal anyway and due to speed boost you are a bit faster then Daring but you do feel that lack sourly sometimes, esp if you make a mistake of committing to a duel early, also she is quite fat and takes AP from other DD caliber guns just as well as she is dishing it out... The good is that the crawling smoke and long range hydro combo still does work if you can put yourself in the proper position and you can get some damage in, she seems esp well designed for the smaller teams in Ranked Torps are ok, less then Daring but one 5x19k per fish rack of 12km range is decent enough, guns are same as Darings so nothing to compare there I do have to say I lack the proper cap for her as my best commonwealth cap is 13pt so that part of not being able to use say Cunningham is a negative as well OFC Overall I would say she is exactly as she seems to be - a slightly different take on Daring

I have her, still not enough matches to have any definite opinion on her but so far I am satisfied even if I must say the crawling smoke + hydro thingy does work better on T7 even if the range of the said hydro is lesser...

Well if you end up with loads of dupes instead of finishing the collection by a drop of parts you dont have "naturally" you might just wait until the boxes are updated, it is bound to happen at some point and then exchange the dupes for the last part/s and take the box then...

Doubtful as I dont remember it being mentioned apart from the guys on stream around the last KOTS mentioning it should be done but @MrConway or @YabbaCoe might look it up for you...

Well lets hope it arrives soon, even if she is paper I kinda like the Richelieu-ish take on the design for the current meta, I dont really care that much about radar but TBH with the spot the CAs are at (and esp T8 CAs) BB slotted battlecruisers with radar were inevitable at one point or the other as well as the CCs in T8...

I didnt reset a line specifically for that purpose but I did spend some RP on LU as I reset pretty much everything several times so in a way yes but also no I guess...

Even if italian or smoking for the team with say US DD?

Wut? Lerroy Jenkins is from original Warcraft series so what does the abreviation have to do with WOWS? Besides IIRC we already had one bot in WOWS called like that in Dynamo...
