    Money making premium BBs?

    Because his performance obviously shows, that he knows what he is doing. So no problem here.
  2. Ok. Granted, didnt see that one. So next time, just ask the community, aka here in the forums, and you´ll sure get the answer. And I still dont see how its a loss? You can still sell it. Doesnt matter when. You will get the premium Moskva no matter what, the only condition is, that you have researched Moskva at some point.
  3. You sell them or you de-mount them for 25 dubloons each and keep them, when selling the Moskva. If you dont sell the Moskva, they stay equipped on the then premium Moskva. But since you said above, you dont own the Moskva anymore - why do you need an answer for that? So you lose nothing either. Or explain to us, where is the difference if you have a Premium T10 Moskva or a silver tech tree T10 Moskva? Apperently, the Premium ship is causing you a loss somehow?

    Money making premium BBs?

    Jean Bart comes to mind for the french. Definatly a fun BB aswell. British premium BB is a little but more tricky I suppose. You could go for Warspite I guess? Duke of York used to be a BB, that I loved a lot. But these days its a chore to play, because you face T9 all the time, so wouldnt recommend. Nelson is somewhat on the same list. If you like to play Narai operation: Hood. She is a killer there and if you care for something to grind credits - then you should start playing Narai anyway. German premium BBs: Scharnhorst - but she shares the T7 problem and then the small guns can be a problem. Tirpitz is the obvious choice although I personally wouldnt recommend. Other will tell you different I guess. Can be a fun brawler with the torps ofc, if you like that sort of gameplay. Are you talking about the coal ones or dubloons or which one? Some of the unique commanders are definatly worth it. John Doe for US is a must, Jack Dunkirk for the british aswell is good.

    Daring Help

    October 2019 guys. its one of "those" topics. So you dont have to point out IFHE - back then it was a must.

    SUBMARINES - discussion, feedback, opinions

    Wait. im confused. First - you want to be on the enemy team. Then - you want to be on my team. So much for great logic.

    SUBMARINES - discussion, feedback, opinions

    Yup I truly hope that for @159Hunter indeed. And Ill add myself to that list. Because the one, that is performing, what you describe in that first sentence, is you. You shouldnt give yourself too much credit dude, after all, we all can see the great sucess, you have with your "tacical thinking" approach in randoms.

    Clan battles season 9

    Ok, honestly, the first part of your post I can understand. But the conclusion is... I mean look at this entire topic. Look at the people who gave the feedback, who, as you point out, mostly complain about the CVs. Those players/teams didnt fail this season. They had no problem to win and get through the ranks. This topic has by far the most Hurricane clans/players posting in this forum in a long time. Followed by many Typhoon clans. This is literally the top of the competetive scene of this game giving feedback and are almost 100% in line across all clans/players. And they all played a "successfull" season is terms of the league they reached and Winrate on their clans...

    Wow you have no idea what you are talking about. A lone Stalingrad was a damage pinata for our CVs. They were celebrating when it was seperated from the fleet, beating it down while having a laugh in Discord. You have some learning to do. As above - simply a matter of you guys not beeing skilled enough, sorry to say.

    Clan battles season 9

    Its never gonna happen and you gave the answer yourself: If they´d remove CVs from CBs, they´d admit that the rework has essetially the same problems as the RTS CVs. And thats also the reason, why they put CVs into CBs - cuz they had to. It was obvious from the get go.

    Ranked, How I feel (2)

    The funny thing tho: wouldnt one expect good players to be able to easier advance under such circumstances? Because early in the season, you meet more good players (this should be undisputed - we recognize names & clantags) thus you´d expect your personal winrate to be getting closer to 50% and other good players saving their star more often then you manage? But then again: maybe erratic behaviour of unexperianced players make the entire game more more random and takes away the ability to perform. Honestly - ive made the same observation. I usualy dont play late in the season anymore. And once again, I had no time to comit early in the season, besides a handful of games (which went really smooth) so right now - I dont feel like trying anymore. Because I know from experiance what awaits me...

    Well I played Smolensk the 2nd part of this season and I didnt have any problems whatsover with AP bombs.

    1: A) The choice between BB or CV was bad. B) CV itself removed all tactical sneakyness due to the fast spotting capabilities. A cap turns red? Send the CV there. Too easy. 2: T9 Season please 3: Limitation on the same ship. No more then 2 of the same ships. This has caused many annoyences in the past: think of: - Kiev meta in T8 season - Henri meta when she was the go to ship - Venezia meta this season - (some will bring up clans that use many Stalingrads or other "freak setups" focussed on 1 ship) Id like to further add: Rework the concept of SAP / Venezia.

    Tallinn appears to be a monster.

    And thats why the same developers gave us Königsberg, right? Interesting. Sources?

    Which DD line next? French or European?

    I find the mid tier soviets really hard to play. you basically only have yolo torps. The low tier ones are the same but they are hillarious, since everything is slower and maps are smaller. It gets interesting on T8 when the lines split: You go down the Kiev, you have something, that is similar to the french: open water gunboats with high speed. Its fun but Khaba is overnerfed and actually inferior to Kleber. The Ognevoi to Grozovoi line is more of a traditional DD line. The heal on those DDs is really nice. I enjoy Ognevoi a lot, f.e., although she lacks gunpower. Udaloi is already much better in that sense and gets better torps with the next path (right? soon anyway). The germans: I personally like them, they offer something different. You are a cap bully but lack gunpower / torp range. It can be a problem. However, they are imo the perfect division DDs. If you play Divis a lot, then german DDs are for you. On your spotting your cruiser can oblierate the enemy DD. Your hydro keeps your divi save(er) from torps, so pushing is easier. Oh yea, and german DDs get buffed aswell: their HE pen will be raised so you an even get good damage with HE on heavy cruisers / BBs without IFHE. will be interesting for sure.

    Which DD line next? French or European?

    Fushun on T6 is really good. Gadjah Mada on T7 is on the brink of beeing OP The T8 Hsienyang is the stinker of the line imo, one of the weakest T8 DDs. T9 Chung Mu is really nice and im personally still a fan of the YY and field it in clanwars over other DDs (eventhough I dont have YY myself yet, but the DD players in my clan still concider her to be a strong DD, atleast in clanwars without CVs.)

    Which DD line next? French or European?

    How about Pan Asian then? You have a smoke, that is somewhat in the same direction, the guns arent exactly as nice as UK, but instead you have more torpedo power and speed. Seriously, playing a DD line without smoke, in the current meta (which doesnt seem to change, since spreadsheet) might be frustrating.

    State of BBs

    In adition to this: which is a very solid advice. Ill add: try to not get into a situation, where you are left alone. I know, this is easier said then done. But its a part of learning the flow of a game. It helps to check the minimap regulary, especially in the first part of the match its crucial. Check the enemys positions, check your own team. Will have you have spotting? aka is a DD in front of you? Cruiser to fight the enemy DDs? Or are you outnumbered? From these informations you build your strategy. Turn and buy your team on the other flank as much time as possible is a good tactic when you are beeing outnumbered.

    Welcome to the forum - that the right attitude. Feel free to use the forums for asking advice. Many helpful people around that are more then willing to share their experiance with new players!

    Nah.He, me and others do this all the time. The problem is with you. You cant even gasp the fact, that other people deal with it. And the reason, why BBs hang back, now get this: because there will always be a part of the playerbase, that is incapable of beeing useful, simply too bad to be successfull in anything they do. So they pick the class, in which they can participate the longest. They played DDs and died in the minute 2. they played cruisers and got one shotted (from BBs mostl, funny right?). They played BB and oh wonder: they can survive and participate. So what you pointing out as "sign of an unplayable class" are actually signs of a class, that is too easy to play and have an outstanding survivability.

    hahaha @ArsenicIndigo that kinda backfired right? How do you feel now? But you concluded the problem in your last sentence so all is good I suppose...
  23. ForlornSailor

    State of BBs

    Yes, I see what the problem in most cases is: BB fans that either want their favourite toy to be even stronger OR their BB doesnt do what they think their super-duper-big´uns-warshippy is suppose to do (dominate everything) so they want to shoehorn the game to their needs.

    No, its not a personal attack. How do you take someone serious, that cries for buffs for the ships, which he performs best in? And by far best! There is no substance in the request when the statistical data shuts you down. And its actually attacking his arguments. Like he says: HE is overpowered... you can farm damage without counterplay for the BB - yet his stats prove, this is a lie! so the entire argument is based on lies. So by using the stats, he IS disarming the argument in the best way possible: uncovering it as a lie. I rest my case.
