[SHAFT] TBNRtom Players 120 posts 17,651 battles Report post #3 Posted June 20, 2018 Fires are a thing, so deal with it. If you want the duration to be less long, just take the flag that reduces the fire duration, damage con system 2 upgrade and the required captain skills... Good Luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[-OOF-] ollonborre Beta Tester 2,598 posts 12,758 battles Report post #6 Posted June 20, 2018 Fire prevention, basics of survivability, damage control module 1 and 2, fire flags, not using your damage control instantly, using your heal for maximum effect. Or just blap the HE spammer. Pick one or several of these things and fires are much less of a hassle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh Yeah it might be a good idea to use Damage con only when you have two fires on your ship ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let me counter you with a 'I don't like having 9/10 of my hp disappear from a single stray shell from a bb commanded by people like you whining about fires'. Would you like every other class to just sit still and not shoot back? They have coop mode for that, go there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[CUPID] AndyTheCupid Community Contributor 310 posts 31,986 battles Report post #10 Posted June 20, 2018 You need a battleship with longer range, I suggest the Fuso, then you can sit over 20km away and out of range of those pesky HE spammers. The A/J or 1/10 lines are good positions to avoid catching fire, preferably A1 or J10. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh yeah, they can be. Are they a problem?

[TOXIC] eliastion Players 4,795 posts 12,260 battles Report post #19 Posted June 20, 2018 21 minutes ago, ace_maverick_2 said: how when your a battle ship you are much slower Then play cruisers and enjoy their fast firing guns, better speeds, faster reload of repair and even reduced base fire duration... If you have problems dealing with bad speed/maneuverability and slow firing guns (with bad dispersion, I might add) - why do you pick the class known for these disadvantages? These problems are the price you pay for Battleship armor, hp pool and devastating high caliber shells. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
