[H_T] Ive_got_the_ships Players 31 posts 6,425 battles Report post #1 Posted December 9, 2018 Am I doing something wrong? I thought I'd try a clan battle with one of the borrowed ships (Gearing), but I'll join a division and wait and it will get almost full after 5 minutes of people joining and then leaving and then the rest of the people will get fed up and leave to. It just seems like a complete waste of time. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[THESO] MrWastee [THESO] Players 2,722 posts 24,965 battles Report post #2 Posted December 9, 2018 it needs to be a full team of players from the same clan, with one of em at least having recruiter status in clan................ if what u wrote is the case in ur clan, may consider to go elsewhere. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[H_T] Ive_got_the_ships Players 31 posts 6,425 battles Report post #3 Posted December 9, 2018 Well that's stupid, why does it let you join a division of players from various clans and then just sit there. 2 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[H_T] Ive_got_the_ships Players 31 posts 6,425 battles Report post #5 Posted December 9, 2018 That's how I thought it would be. I thought otherwise because it lets you join divisions of mixed clan members. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[EON] The_Finnster Players 159 posts 21,539 battles Report post #7 Posted December 9, 2018 Sure you’re actually in a CLAN battle and not a division for an operation? You can’t have non-clan in a clan v clan battle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[H_T] Ive_got_the_ships Players 31 posts 6,425 battles Report post #8 Posted December 9, 2018 All I can say is I'm not the only one. There are a lot of people sitting around in these divisions waiting to play. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm in the same situation myself, someday I'll get to T10 though. My clan DOES participate in CB, always friday/saturday. Sometimes a bit hectic to get a full division. Also, we do regular divisions in randoms. You get used to the other players and know what to expect (and where it will go wrong). I'd certainly advise to team up with regular div-mates and join the same clan (also: try operations! a great way to practise!). No matter if you have to drive rented ships. You'll at least know who is best in BBs and DDs and such. I did an easy 200k in Yamato, never drove the thing before. But I know (and so do my clan buddies) better not put me in a DD... Having your own 'old faithful' Tier 10 will probably be better... then again, maybe not... even in CB there's lots of potatoes. I'm one of them heheheheheh! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats kinda unnecessary. If its all people have then ... Should have posted only last sentence of your post.

It's also kinds BS, because on those rented ships you have to spend a few million credits to 'spade' them. You could go to battle in a bog-standard Yamato and a 0-point freshly recruited captain, never mind the camo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, all modules you mount on rentals will be demounted for free and put into your inventory. After that you can just put them on other ships, you lose nothing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[DC-DK] hgbn_dk Players 3,047 posts 32,454 battles Report post #19 Posted December 9, 2018 To be honest WG should never have introduced the rentals for CB. Either you have your own T-X or you don't play CB.. And no it is not to bash smaller or new clans I say it. How do you expect those ships with inexperienced players to fair even decent, when they are already handicapped by not being able to mount a camo?? Our clan allowed rentals for the first season because everyone should have the chance to play.. What a mess the result became. The better half of the clan won and the other half threw it away. Now the Clan has been split into 2 sub clans the casual where everyone can play, only restriction is you have to have your own T-X. and the more ambitious where we have a smaller team selected by our two commanders.

Would disagree with that. Forcing newish players to grind T10 too soon just to be able to try clan battles doesn't seem a great idea to me. As you said, it's up to each clan to decide who will take part. It' not like random/ranked where you don't get to choose your team. Also some clans struggle to get the 7 people already, I don't think shutting them off from CB would benefit the game overall. edit: by the way, I think a single clan can now field two clan battle teams via some port upgrade ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was a little harsh to the OP, but my point I was trying to get across was with a rented DD, his team would struggle as he will be out spotted all game. Rented cruisers/battleships can cope somewhat but a rented DD will struggle. Tbh WG should state when renting a ship that it can only be used with fellow clan members and not allow divs to be formed by mixed clans for CB's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
