[BULLS] Krumpir_3 Players 12 posts 10,926 battles Report post #1 Posted July 5, 2019 Could somebody explain to me how can I play Bismarck when I get uptired to tier 10 every f****** game, I can play fine against cruisers and BBs but how can I play against a carrier tier 10 that harrases me every fu***** game or just get torpedoed by a dd in only 3 torpedo hits, trying to play at distance between 16-21 km and shooting at enemy isn't a choice SINCE THE DISPERSION IS LIKE 400 KM !! (274 m)(Also the dmg is inconsistent, I would say that I am decent at aiming). So I would appreciate if somebody has an advice , thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TEAM_] HansiSolo Players 46 posts 6,218 battles Report post #7 Posted July 5, 2019 It' been like this for at least 1 year and it will get worse and worse as more and more players reach T10. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[M-P-M] Migantium_Mashum Players 3,146 posts 19,218 battles Report post #8 Posted July 5, 2019 If you are uptiered in Bismarck then simply ally yourself to the nearest Tier X BB and work with that player. Bismarck has excellent secondary capabilities and if you have manual secondaries they do even better. You'll find that the Bismarck is good enough to fight the higher tier games...

Yeah that would be nice if they wouldn't go for suicide runs every game, there are exceptions but mostly they suicide.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[FBC] Logan_MountStuart Players 416 posts 10,715 battles Report post #10 Posted July 5, 2019 Great fun in a Fiji today with 9 Tier 9 battles in a row! To be fair they sometimes think you aren't a threat but forget it has lowish detection and smoke but which time you've smoked up 2 Georgias and a Jean Bart and gone spotting for them, carnage! lol!!! Just do not get hit, at all, ever! In all seriousness WG have said this consistency is coming to an end, hopefully sooner rather than later. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[-OOF-] Miscommunication Players 550 posts 6,680 battles Report post #11 Posted July 5, 2019 Don't worry, they've improved Fat Freddie now so your T9 experience will be much more enjoyable. Best way to deal with T8 grinds is to take a big breath of air, close your eyes and pretend it's all a dream... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gustywinds Players 444 posts 5,582 battles Report post #12 Posted July 5, 2019 Bismarck, Tirpitz, Massachusetts, Richelieu .. always see them in T10 games and they always become targets for my T8 CVs which are also constantly up-tiered, especially Kaga which is particularly depressing to play in this situation.

Very difficult to do as most of the T10s never get into secondary range until very late game. I have a similar issue with both Tirpitz and Massa constantly being uptiered (they are both secondary build) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TSUN] DragonstrikerOrigin Players 325 posts 8,802 battles Report post #14 Posted July 5, 2019 Well to be honest yes T8 ships are technicaly weaker then there T10 Counterpart. But on the same time if you know what you are doing with your ship then you will perform way better then any of the T10 ships in your game. And best advise i can give. Try to avoid to go into battle at night. Try go into battles doing the day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
