Conealment mod. On every ship. And yes, I include Khaba. You don't want to be outspotted by a Minotaur.

You do realise that Moskva has probably been detected by you long before he popped up his radar, don't you? Nobody is arguing here that you should stay in cap against a radar, but there are ways to troll the radar ship and come back later. If you have the concealment advantage in the cap the enemy is probably even more worried than you are of what might be 'on the other side of the hill', so to speak.

Ok, I'll humour you just once. a) IJN torpedo boats can contest caps because usually they have the best concealment around, meaning any other non-IJN ship will be spotted before you are. By you. That is a HUGE advantage, it means you get to have the first move, so to speak. You dedice how it will pan out because you can either contest it or run away, and do it so without being even spotted. Waiting for the enemy DDs to show up is wasting precious time. Not to mention that if your team's DDs wait it out outside the caps it begs the question WHO is going to spot them in the first place. Akizuki is actually not the best IJN capper out there because it is rather clumsy and slow, meaning you will have a hard time getting out if needed. It also has worse concealment than Kagero. b) The primary function, and the one that will give your team the best chance to win the battle is to spot inside or close to the cap. Kill or help your teammates kill the oppposing DDs and the game is as good as won. THEN, you can go after the enemy BBs that will have no way of defending against you. Going round caps to get at the BBs at the back from minute 1 is the worst thing you can do. Your torpedoes are as good against DDs than against BBs, by the way. I demean your post because I think you are talking B0ll0x. Irrespective of how many DDs you have your approach to how a DD should play (even an IJN one) is deeply flawed IMO.

Sweet mother of god... You only have a couple of tier 7 DDs (in fact, you only have one tier 8 ship) and you are not very good with them. And that's alright, we have all being there and you learn as you play the game but I would suggest you refrain from posting things like the bit in bold until you do have a few more battles under your belt and you can positively impact a game. You won't see me pontificating about what a CV should be doing, because I know I'm not that good with them. But as usual, self awareness is notorious for its absence.

Don't be fooled, this is a BB player impersonating as a cruiser one.

This is me in tier 9-10 DDs Going into a cap in a Yugumo or Shima is not the same as doing a suicide run. You cannot be outspotted in a Yugumo to begin with. A Khaba rushing a Shima is a dead Khaba, either by your torps or by you team mates. You just must use your advantages.

Bits in bold I disagree with. Akatsuki or Hatsuharu will have the spotting advantage over most DDs, chinese ones don't have the torps to punish them either. You should cap with IJN boats as well. That doesn't mean you should fight it out with and enemy Farragut or Anshan, let alone if you are on your own. But trying to cap is ALWAYS your first objective in a match. The primary role of a DD is to find the enemy BBs and destroy them? Oh boy, that's a big NO-NO. The primary role of a DD, particularly in Domination, is to secure the caps, spot the enemy and whenever possible, get rid of the opposing DDs. And then, and only then, you can go BB hunting. Scouting has zero returns? Apart from giving you the edge in winning the battle, I guess.

Con eso de las misiones francesas de obtén 240.000.000 lacitos he desempolvado el Monotaur

La verdad es que no me puedo quejar porque llevo una racha de las de ir a comprar un boleto para el euromillón. Todos esos proyectiles son míos...

So take a cap, kill the enemy DD, spot a bit, and THEN go after that BB and drop your torps 1km away. Simples. Come on, ball busting? really? Ball busting is getting 240,000,000 ribbons with french BBs and Cruisers, but every single Aigle mission so far can be done easily by just playing. A bit. With a number of ships.

Salvo cuatro gatos con habilidad innata, a todos nos cuesta aprender (y seguiremos aprendiendo) Luego hay algunos que no aprenden nunca, y cada uno a lo suyo, ¿eh? A mi me gusta ir mejorando día a día, pero tampoco soy de los que se estudian el blindaje de este barco o el otro para saber dónde colocar la mirilla. Y los que no aprenden nunca no sólo están en tu equipo, también son esos que te encuentras por ahí navegando como si estuviesen admirando el paisaje y les sueltas 4 ciudadelas y te quedas con esa sensación de "soy la p0lla", así que como dicen los ingleses, swings and roundabouts. ¿Que el juego es lento a la hora de avanzar? Pues generalmente sí, aunque nada te impide gastarte pasta en comprar doblones y convertir XP a Free XP y ala, Missouri o Musashi de tier IX en el puerto. O comprarte algún premium de tier VIII cuando no has jugado más allá de tier VII con barcos de rama. Personalmente, el que el juego requiera de muchas horas para progresar es un gran punto a su favor, y una de las cosas que consiguen que las batallas de tiers altos no parezcan (generalmente) como si nos hemos tomado todos una botella de vodka antes de pulsar Batalla.

It's still to hit with 4 torps in a single battle though, is it not? Hardly the stuff of legends, but if you feel like you need to do it on your first try, then rush a BB and drop them at point blank. Sorted.

Hay gente que lleva 8000 batallas a lomos y juega en tier X como si no hubiese visto un teclado en su vida y no supiese dónde están las teclas WASD. El propio WG ha comentado en ocasiones que algunas mecánicas son así porque si fuesen de otra forma serían demasiado complicadas para la mayoría de jugadores. Sinceramente yo no sé qué viene antes, si el huevo o la gallina, si los jugadores (en su conjunto) son una banda porque no pueden aprender o porque no se les enseña correctamente. Tiendo a inclinarme por lo primero, la verdad, sobre todo cuando te topas con que muchos de ellos encima protestan en el chat o en el foro llamando a otros noob/potato.

That 1% extra on a Conqueror could really make the difference, you know... Had a 1000 doublons one last week, and a 100 50% Captain XP flags yesterday. I really can't complain.

Potatos are gonna potato, tio. En la siguiente partida será el DD enemigo el que se vaya al mapa de al lado en busca del tesoro. Ayer me hice la captura de A en Shatter con el Khaba, porque el Gearing enemigo era uno de esos de me asomo, y a la mínima oposición echo torpedos y salgo corriendo. Y tenía a un New Orleans al lado. Si le da por tirar humo al NO y entrar en la cap o quedarse cerca espoteando, si tengo suerte me echan pero probablemente me hunden.

Calla calla...

To paraphrase Flamu, "There is a change, [...] the biggest buff recipient of this is cruisers who use AP". Citando lo que ha dicho Flamu, "Hay un cambio... y el mayor beneficiado en esto son los cruceros que usan AP" que supuestamente es un porcentaje muy bajo. https://clips.twitch.tv/TsundereAbnegateBananaJonCarnage Alguna de las de ayer fue contra un FdG o Kurfurst no sólo en movimiento a 18km sino te diría incluso ligeramente angulado alejándose de mi Pura suerte que tenía cargado AP, a esa distancia hubiese tirado HE si o si.

¿Desde cuándo pasa esto? Ya me pareció raro el otro día meterle 2 ciudadelas a un FdG a 12km, y ayer con el Hindenburg fue unas risas, a 18-19km con el avión y calzando ciudadelas a BBs al otro lado del mapa

Top man! Logged in through twitch as well just in case and it worked a treat. Thanks mate!

Hummm, linked my amazon account to my twitch account, claimed the prize, I haven't received neither captain nor the containers in game. Anyone else the same?

Over the last 3-4 weeks I got three SCs: 50000XP and a couple of 1000 doublons Always TYL.

Playerbase is what it is, a report for sh$t playing won't solve anything, so I don't report unless it's a very blatant thing, like a non-Russian DD going around the left/right cap CV hunting at the start of the game (and die) or a BB going round one of those big islands and staying 2-3 minutes effectively out of the game, usually accompanied by a couple other BBs. Oh, and cruisers (particularly IJN) torping from behind. But other than that, yeah, not much reporting. I know I should compliment more often though.

Yep, 5 BBs and 5 DDs in tier X matches is an all too common occurrence, which basically means the team that wins the DD fight ultimately wins the game.
