CVs need balancing here is my suggestion!
Lootboxer replied to DeadbyDefault_35's topic in General Discussion
I have more them 400 all in reworked CV s T4, 6, 8 and 10 and most of them are OP as vs surface ships. The only class standing chance are CVs themselves WG in catering to the lowest skill players dumbed down gameplay the point that 400 games was enough for me to get them into highest WR, PR and average damage of all my classes. Rework solved nothing, skill gap is still huge. What saves often situations is fact that majority of players are still not able to get the most out of huge potential that CV has. Balancing problem is fact that we have no fun in playing CV when CV seems balanced as it is boring and no fun. So to be able still to do anything in hands of poor players vs groups of ships CVs been made totally OP against scattered ships especially if commanded by somehow skilled captain. That's the biggest problem with balancing of CVs vs surface ships. This is what promotes blobbing, Lemingtrains, static campy gameplay plus it kills fun, flanking and individual strategy in this game. And it rapes the value of concealment. -

Is it me or the "Torpedo Target Predictor" is very wrong (sometimes even a ship length) at short ranges since the last patch?
Lootboxer replied to Leo_Apollo11's topic in General Discussion
I believe that bots do know when we launch and will dodge most of the time, with a bit of RNG or the other conditions build into a decision making process on dodging or not probably to make it less obvious and not completely impossible to hit them. -

Lootboxer replied to Leo_Apollo11's topic in General Discussion
What I've also noticed with my TRB boats is that bots will dodge the first set and will fall for the second most of the time. It's like some weird kind of compensation or something coded into magic AI awareness. Anyway best way is to torp from a point blanc range. -

Lootboxer replied to Ronchabale's topic in General Discussion
You'd be surprised how many Dds I've killed with torps, or just got them killed by crossdropping into my DD torps. AA tracers in a smoke are randomised and do not come from the one location, using main guns though can get you killed. -

Do you play CVs? You should to know your enemy. what they can do, where they are going usually. And it's fun to touch in inappropriate way all those underage lolibotes. Then probably you will be better in CV games (if enemy CV will let you, but most are lets say not the best). -
Why the insane resource ship price inflation?
Lootboxer replied to kfa's topic in General Discussion
As it was with 175k of coal for a special captains and we know how it ended. IMHO they will charge this and then later they'll say something along the line: "Ungrateful players, no point in developing more high tier DDs as nobody is interested in them". Surprise when they are either weak (overall or/and compared tp peers and OP CAs ans BBs for simmilar price) or overpriced or both. With a whole class being indirectly nefed all the time and made more and more challenging to play not many will probably get them. For a players that do not have everything remember please that 2 mlns can get you whole 2 lines up to TX researched or 2 T9 premiums that will make more credits. -
I got Moskwa and Yama just before the patch to start UU missions. Salem is nice, but for some reasons I do not play her often recently. I play DM a lot but in CB where it shines. In randoms both are increasingly hard to play as too many overmatching BBs came out recently - combined with CV spotting and long range RNG lottery can end in a quick one way ticket or gimped ship for the rest of a game. Bow tanking is pretty much a thing of a past now in CAs.

But Des can be very useful, still probably best TX silver ship (until Ru split at least) when HIV after acceleration nerf will recieve huge blow to IFHE build soon. As always as soon an I've got nice ship they will kill it. Soon I will get Daring and I am sure after buff by IFHE rework it will get smashed with typical WG gentleness.

Lootboxer replied to FM6a's topic in Rozgrywka
Za bańkę się bardzo wahałem, czy warto, za dwie to se mogą w wsadzić. Na Smalanda miałem ochotę, ale jak tu nafarmić drugą bańkę bez Narai? Może wezmę Frieslanda jednak. Kapitan z Byski jakoś się może nada po małych przeróbkach. Ciekawe czy to będzie taka cena, czy testują wody, boję się, że infalcja taka w Leningradzie. -
Will removing slingshot actually do anything?
Lootboxer replied to Bear__Necessities's topic in General Discussion
Are you aware that this change is only for bombers? Torpedoes and rockets carrying aircraft will remain unaffected. -
You are not average, with 53%WR. Server average is 47% if I remember correctly. I means you are 6% above average and I have similar WR to you and I am very often in top 3 as well just because majority of players do not have skill, experience or will to do better. And we are still improving - in last 200 battles you have 62% won games. Hardly average.

Lootboxer replied to Bear__Necessities's topic in General Discussion
Are you "most of bad CV players"??? I know because I see in games that most don't. Singular exemptions do not count. I am glad that you do but not sure even if you are bad CV player because you've hidden your stats so you may be better then you think. -
Want to buy a resource ship to make credits. Advice?
Lootboxer replied to Bowmangr's topic in General Discussion
it is not true. In fact is does not matter if you live, or die or how much damage you will take. Service cost (ship repair as you call it) is always the same for a given ship plus used ammo cost. It's like this at least 2 years now or more (I play over 2 years and it always was like that for me) and people still believe in this story, camping whole game to save credits. -

30 minutes? More like 8-12, max is 20 but it's very rare. You still pay service cost in coop, economy is poor in high tiers in there. -

For me azuma, nelson and freesland still there waiting for my xp. OP. I am not fond of BBs but I like JB if not BB then Friesland maybe? All them freexp/coal T9s make money if you'll do well with flags. -

Lootboxer replied to Bear__Necessities's topic in General Discussion
I am above average-good and to be honest I do not slingshot too. Cannot be arsed to even learn, tried a few times and decided that it's not for me. Still can do OK. I am more worried about being longer within Aa aura during turn for follow up attack, but possibly it will change nothing as turn time may be longer anyway. Will be harder to link attacks, but I did it rarely anyway, I'm too much of a potato for it. And I believe that very good players will not care as they can do whatever they want and they will win maybe even more as small hurdle for them will be bigger obstacle for a majority. Most of players will not notice probably. Most bad Cv captains never heard about slingshot or even if they did , they think it's something only unicums can do. -
@NothingButTheRain played one game just now and it went much better, still probably room for improvement, I had a decent team and RNG so it was easier, somehow I've avoided mostly taking a lot of damage, not to campy? Should I push harder later game? 20200220_231121_PJSB018-Yamato-1944_50_Gold_harbor.wowsreplay

This are my last 3 weeks mostly solo stats (I am using only recent 3 weeks as it is about my current skill in a current meta). As you see I am real potato in BBs. (in CAs too but that's the other story) Most of this poor games are stock Lyon, Izumo grind and first games in Yamato but what I've found most annoying is perceived luck of impact on a game's outcome. In Izumo I have even very good PR but it does not lead to decent WR. I know it's small sample size etc. If I try to play safe it's over before I can do anything, if I push I will be dead fast. Even if I manage to position myself correctly somwhere in the middle ground I am by RNG/my poor aim. Now I know it's most likely L2p issue and as a DD main in big boats I have problem with overextending and deep aversion to being accused of "camping" but I feel like playing solo Bb gives player a very little in a way of carrying. In DD or CV I feel like I can win and carry just by doing my part (even if not in a very good manner, usually much better then opponent) in BBs I feel like a passenger not a driver in a team. What do you think is it my poor skill, or this class is not good for solo wining as mistakes are not punished so hard and RNG equals skills between BB players most of all classes? If you believe that I am wrong and games can be carried in solo BB can you please share some sekrit recipes for success? As I am close to giving up on them. Max range fire spam and RNG plus camping meta with quick games kills all joy in high tier BBs for me. I can do ok and have fun even on lost games in a medium tiers (5-7) it's t8-10 the worst. Please help me. Or tell me to stay with DDs, HE spammers and fun police.

Tylko, że to nie po lamieniu na lotni najbardziej wyzywają, ot dzisiaj kraken na Shokaku i od razu dwa raporty, a na czacie nic nie pisałem, żeby soli w rany nie wcierać. Grasz dobrze, to przeciwnicy raportują, albo nawet team, za "steal kile", albo daltego, że nie obroniłeś każdego wszędzie, a jak grasz żle, też zdarza się raport, potem trzeba karmę na DDkach nadrabiać. Tylko, że tak na prawdę dość to rzadko się to zdarza, ot pamiętamy takie sytuacje, a tych zdecydowaną wiekszość tych gier, gdzie nic się nie zdarzyło zapominamy. Nietety grając tą klasą zbieramy sól w zastępstwie WG i ich reworku.

Some saying caps, but just by killing 11 ships and winning they'd have much more XP as a whole team then here. Something doesn't add up.
