[-OOF-] ollonborre Beta Tester 2,598 posts 12,758 battles Report post #3 Posted September 1, 2018 Got to rank 10 playing mainly BB's after my Z-52 got tired of having me at the helm. Republique and Yamato are probably the strongest ships you could have, Yama with the lolpen and great armor, Rep with speed and RoF. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anonym_RGvUdEcxWWvD Players 315 posts Report post #7 Posted September 1, 2018 Rank 10 doesnt seem that hard. Im currently ranked 10 pissing off my teammates and enemies with Khaba. Just playing to grind out my legendary mod so I can test it. If everyone hates to play with Khaba on your team then perhaps its time for a buff. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SLAPP] lameoll Players 1,792 posts 10,834 battles Report post #10 Posted September 1, 2018 player NC for T8 that was easy duck hunt games. Then i switched to yamato/ henry. mostly yamato tho. most of the times you will see your BB's go lemmingtraining to 1 side. be sure you do not follow them and create a crossfire. But ofc u can not do that alone in a BB if you have no support tho. especialy if you have a CV against u (altho that is rare) . So try to dictate your spare DD or cruiser to go with u or go to the other cap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[S-A-O] Masa2mune Players 105 posts 11,507 battles Report post #14 Posted September 2, 2018 I haven't gotten around to reaching rank 10 and beyond yet, but when I eventually do, I'll do it with a mix up of legendary module Yamato and my T10 cruisers. The cruisers are great and you can do great contributions in them, but whenever I don't take the BB role myself I feel like I'm risking the battle big time by potentially having one more potato BB on the team, increasing overall fatal risk of not having a single good BB on your team, which happens all too often IMO (and unlike in randoms I can't div up to fix this problem by having a friend/clan member secure the spot). As a BB main I would then feel responsible... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tenacious_torps ∞ Players 1,373 posts Report post #20 Posted September 2, 2018 Just play whatever you enjoy. It's about stamina, not skill, anyway. Which probably explains why I tend to bugger off once I got the easy rewards in quickly. I was informed my stamina was found wanting more often than I care to remember. Then again, I usually don't stay for breakfast anyway, so why bust a lung. It's a lifestyle choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[BLITZ] Desteban Players 325 posts 10,326 battles Report post #25 Posted September 3, 2018 I am only at 12, have played all my TX games with Cruisers. Don't like BBs and DDs seem to have a hard time with all the radar around. Cruisers at TX are pretty good at not losing a star. Haven't lost one yet. Worecester is my weakest cruiser so far, Des moin my safest bet and Mino is just hillarious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
