However ingame this detection range changes to 20km?? Detection "blooms" to max when you fire and stays that way for several seconds. If you decide to hold your fire ,it will return to "normal".

It also increases when you fire your AA or secondary guns (depending on ship, I think some do not) or when your ship is on fire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Secondaries don't affect concealment. AA guns do affect aeriel concealment (so if you shoot at a plane and aren't hidden in smoke, the plane spots you back).

The tutorials are helpful though and will help you play better - the other way is to division with good players - those in the post above would be excellent and you will find improving makes the game better. I wish there had been the same when I was starting but I just had to learn the hard way! Best of luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I asked flambass if I could roll with him but he was like no.... Fact is when I become a unicum of the future he will regret the day turning down my hand of friendship.

[TACHA] triumphgt6 Players 1,870 posts 22,638 battles Report post #23 Posted August 23, 2018 Join a clan - you can join mine but to be frank it is not very good and not very active!! Look on the forum at clan recruitment and most will do divisions and training. I would also join the group above my post. Looking at your stats, I would strongly suggest you go down a few levels and get good at a ship. I started as you did and advanced up the tiers too quickly - though not to tier 10!! Go back and choose a forgiving ship - I went to the US St Louis and learned how to shoot, how to angle and positional sense. I am still working my way up to a respectable win rate following my disastrous start!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TACHA] triumphgt6 Players 1,870 posts 22,638 battles Report post #25 Posted August 23, 2018 The Help Me group would though - they are trying to prevent people becoming liabilities and also helping them to enjoy playing the game. But I would be play tier 3 or 4 and get your win rate up - the Atlanta was a weakness for me too! Taken 1000 battles to get it to a 50% wr!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
