Skurfa Beta Tester 809 posts Report post #9 Posted January 5, 2019 In my opinion: Let WG adjust every ship, also premiums. That would allow a better and more balanced game. The idea of premiums being slightly better, or just different from the main line ship, is ok, but brokenly overpowered, nope. Premiums are already being adjusted, just not directly, they’re being powercrept and noone complains about that?? Now, hit me with your dislikes 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ohno Stalingrad has 60 seconds fire. This ship that you have 5-10% higher WR and 16k higher average damage than you have with your highest tier 10 cruiser is now totally unplayable. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Kron has more AP dpm than Stalingrad. If it had the same, or similar dispersion... That is gonna be a yikes from me. Even if it burns for two full unmitigated fires (each taking away 18% of Kron's HP), it still as healthy as an untouched Buffalo. Kron: 72 450 - 26 082 (36%, two full fires) = 46 368 HP Buffalo: 47 800 HP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BYOB] HMS_Britannia Beta Tester 250 posts 44,723 battles Report post #15 Posted January 5, 2019 I don't necessarily think it should have the same as stalin but the same as Alaska and Azuma yes, not forgetting that it doesn't have the same bounce angles as stalin or even Alaska nor the hard hitting HE of azuma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okay, what if they buff ALL OTHER SHIPS? Would you want your money back too? Even putting more ships out there that are more OP’ed that your OP ship, would be an direct nerf of your ship, would you want your money back then? Just let WG do what needs to be done, so the game gets better... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[HOOKS] kingzy2013 Players 228 posts 6,355 battles Report post #20 Posted January 6, 2019 by no means is this ship weak, but it has a noticeable citadel and is quite punishing for presenting broadside as generally ships should be.

Not that it needs another nerf after already having its AP slaughtered vs DDs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As strong as its firepower is, caught in a crossfire they are as vulnerable as any other CL Now have a Zao, Des, Moskva, Hindy ect in the same place as that ship in that picture.....It would be out right dead! Hummm. The fact that the Grad is still sailing speaks in volumes. Plus how many Grads do you see in Open water that like plum unless he had no choice? Precisely. I welcome the new 60's. We can't keep Battlecrusiers cherry picking what they want like they do now. They can't have the callaber and HP of Battleships and the versatility of a cruiser. It's too much at the moment. Kron, Stalin, Alaska and Azuma all fit that bill. Having a longer fire duration makes total sense if you ask me . This is from someone who is looking forward to the Alaska. Fair play WG, this is a good change IMHO. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
