So if you knew, why do you complain about it?

Dont go in a division with T5 ships, when you are a T4 ship. T4 has easier MM, as it can only see T3-5 ships. But if you are in a division with a T5 ship, you can see T7 ships. MM always takes the highest tier into account when in a division. So tell your buddies to pick a T4 ship instead.

TBH, Henri speedboost dodging at range was as bad as Venezia right now. And i think Henri is still better than Hindenburg... but thats the stupid WG gimmicks being at fault. MBRB should never exist.

And how often do you take TYL? I used to take it almost always before they introduced resource containers. Now i take TYL as first always, the others (if i get them ofc) i take Resource.

Getting ships is always about being lucky. You said, you knew a lot of players who got ships back then - i didnt. And i also know some, who didnt get a ship back then either. But i got 2 ships last year, so maybe they didnt change it? I dont want to claim one is right, but it doesnt look like it changed to me. I was just unlucky before, and then i got lucky twice. Also, even tho you have many more games, you wont get that many more containers, since they are limited to 3 per day. I played 2 games yesterday, and got 2 containers. Even if you played 10 games, you would have gotten only 1 more than me.

Interesting, same thing happened to me. I got Gallant from those. Then soon after Enterprise from a TYL SC.

I think you just got lucky. I used to get a lot of SCs back then, and i never got a ship until last year (then i got 2 close to each other however) I dont think SCs got worse over time - we just got more spoiled and actually need that stuff less. I feel the same way, but i wouldnt dare rant about it, only because its not good for me. It might be good stuff for a lot of players, we dont know that. I got doubloons quite often lately, and i know someone else who also got more doubloons than usually (he even got 5k in one). Its actually nice for me, since i dont spend money and i have enough use for doubloons. If i could choose, i only would take Coal/Steel, Doubloons and ships from SCs, but that doesnt really sound realistic, unless they lower the dropchance A LOT. Some changes to drops could be a nice idea however. Alltho im against getting coupons. Then i rather have everyone get coupons like right now. RP sounds good.

My BBs didnt get the memo, that they are supposed to be garbage

Ive said several times by now, that it doesnt make it right either (nor did i claim that), but GZ gets nerfed, and suddenly thats the end of the world? Its not like that CV was good even before, and people should edcuate themselves BEFORE they buy that ship. Its not hidden, that GZ is considered to be a bad CV right now. You brought up Tirpitz - i caught you making stuff up, now you play the victim card and make me bad. 10/10 dishonest arguments They also got buffed to 26mm armor penetration instead... You still dont understand global nerfs... newsflash, every ship was nerfed by having a smoke firing penalty, including all premiums. You could refund CVs when 0.8.0 hit the servers, atleast for doubloons. Also you do understand that the CV rework pretty much created a new class, and the only thing in common was the CV hull and name of it, while everything else got changed? There were no "nerf/buffs" to premiums during that period - it was balance change which were absolutely necessary, because WG was incapable of doing it properly. Thats why we ended up with OP Enterprise (alltho that probably was intentional to get a CV into XMas boxes) So how about premiums get never NERFED OR BUFFED? Apparently you think, its ok for them to get buffed but NEVER to be nerfed.

Did you play the last season? Its not about having a CV player or not - its about having a horrible gaming experience. Its an activity in our free time, it should be FUN. Most people didnt have fun because of CVs, some even quit the game alltogether because it was so bad...

So having a 300k game makes a ship OP now? Uh, thats bad, i think we need to nerf all hightier ships... That was his best game ever His Smolensk has the highest damage for TX Cruisers (but same as Wooster), but its 4th last in WR. Only Henri , Zao and Moskva are worse for him (ill ignore Nevsky and Salem due to small sample size). Useless damage farming is not OP.

In the area of the Hydro or the area of the ships range? First one you deserve to die, 2nd one aint true. Indeed, that annoying sound alone makes you prone to DCP because its SO [edited]ANNOYING.

But all other CAs have the same issue? Zao/Hindenburg/Venezia even and DM. Sure, there are difference in size aswell, which could make henri more prone to being hit ?`(dunno about size difference) but even DM should have more issues because it often operates closer to the enemies than the others.

She never really was, for reasons we can only speculate - Its not german - Its another line of longrange HE spammers after IJN/Germans were already available. Maybe most people didnt feel like grinding them, and many people want to play Hindenburg because german (as we can see with the battle count). But i dont think Henri is weak right now, it just might not fit the playstyle of the people playing it? (could be the same for german ships, which tend to draw their stats down)

So you should be able to prove it since its kinda obvious? Please show us why.

I disagree Noone is playing Henri because they think its garbage (which it isnt) They jumped to Venezia, because its easier. The same happened to YY when they nerfed it -> all good players jumped ship.

To me its again a failed concept as a whole. 15 guns is too much. Since they made that ship up, they could have gone with 12 as many other aswell. The troll armor is way over the top since it already has emergency smoke. And the turning circle is too tight. If you fix those 3, you can see how it performs. (and to me, SAP shouldnt exist at all, but thats a different story)

I wouldnt even go that far. Its most likely an issue about specific BBs not fitting ones playstyle. They desperately want that one ship to be good for them. Yamato is a good example, where many players claim its garbage. Mostly because they simply dont understand the gamemechanics. Lately, proclaiming a ship gets nerfed into the ground because of one nerf is really getting out of hand and its annoying af.

This. At some point, we would all be running around with A-bombs because the average player will always fail regardless of what you give them, since better player would always be better

So Henri/Hindi/Zao have radar? Or they go to caps? No they dont. Hindi is probably the only one which can manage to rush BBs endgame and succesfully kill them. Venezias survivability is so high, because it has troll armor and that smoke. Zao has troll armor but no smoke (and 20% less HP). Henri has a little bit troll armor at times, because of the spaced armor. Hindenburg has turtleback, which doesnt work at longrange. DM outperforms others, because it has Radar, and can kill DDs AND has strong guns. But thats a seperate issue. i never understood some buffs to DM back then (like even faster reload...) and now it got buffed with 30mm midsection. In general the buff was ok, as it was the only TX CA without that 30mm. But they should have nerfed the reload a bit to compensate. You should look at similar playstyle ships and compare those. btw Individual Venezia/Goliath players on EU. By all means, Goliath should have better stats. Even Henri isnt that far away anymore. Damage output is fine, when the survivability gets adressed.

http://maplesyrup.sweet.coocan.jp/wows/ranking/20200620/eu_week/average_ship_u.html Look at those stats, how is it not OP? Highest survivability out of ALL ! ships (except CVs). Highest TX silver cruiser average damage, while having no HE btw, and it doesnt end there, it has higher damage than all TX silver BBs aswell except conqueror (which is quite obvious to why that is). It outperforms its entire competition (Zao, Hindenburg, Henri) in every stat, and its not even close... So yes, i think that shows its OP. Even when i look at my own stats: Venezias damage should be where Mino is, since Mino doesnt have HE either (ok maybe a bit more, because Mino can have radar utility which greatly increases match influence, but also increases the skill you need by a ton). Minos avg right now is 65k, Venezia almost 90k. But you dont really need to nerf its damage output, you only need to nerf its survivability, which is through the roof. Playing Venezia is braindead in randoms. Its like playing a BB. In case you fucked up? Oh you got that smoke to bail out.

Torps? Better Armor? But no speedboost ofc.

You did it this time @Crysantos After you said recently on stream, that WG secretly nerfs ships every patch (like tirpitz) all those tinfoilhat guys are running wild everywhere (streams f.e.) claiming its the truth 10/10 Crysantos trolling the community Yes i know, not much use in that topic, but i had to share it

wait, what? You want to throw under people under the bus because some others make faildivs?! That surely sounds fair Essentially you are proposing -3 MM to return to wows.

If you dont want them to be replaced by higher tier ships than themselves, you are saying, they shouldnt be lowtier -3, giving the T7 ship in the division better MM by being midtier at worst (T6-8 MM). It already works with CVs, we dont need that with other divs too. WG should get rid of uneven tier divisions tbh...
