I see 4 T7 on yours screenshot and only one T9 which you dealt the least damage to. For full health Tirpitz you've done less then 20k, hardly sinking damage too. But like I said it's too early to form an opinion and too small sample size. I will wait for reviews but I remain sceptic. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Perth and the Haida are two good examples of this; you typically either like them very much (like I do), or you don't like them at all. I'd say they are both very good ships, although their respective flavour is not to everyone's taste. And on this note, I am very interested in the Friesland. Considering how much I enjoy the Haida - whose weak torpedo armament could be considered her balancing Achilleus' heel - I believe there's a good chance I may enjoy the Friesland as well, without feeling the lack of torpedoes as too much of a drawback. I am a bit worried about her relatively large detection radius, though. How is one supposed to go about in a cap/scouting contest with a more stealthy destroyer, at a tier where artillery back-up is usually both swift and accurate? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
