@Anymn

it's nearly trhe same for the Khabarovsk.

many people playing the thashkent and the khaba are too afraid of loosing their ship or to focused on yolo.

 

 

Thanks, I'll try to improve using this! Do you think having no smoke is still viable after CV rework?

By the way, I decided to buy the Friesland, and I'm very glad I did. I'm not a pro with it, but I think it's a very fun ship.

Best thing is that ROF combined with fast turning turrets, something I absolutely miss on the Khabarovsk.

I demolished a Kita with it yesterday, he gambled on his torps and help from his nearby Ibuki vs my hydro and smoke, he lost the toss

No smoke is not really a problem. There aren't that many present in randoms and most of the CV players don't know what they're doing anyway.

no - never use smoke

it just robs you of movement 

as an exampl:  if you get hit you smoke and try to run away -> you still dont get your health back and the smoke will be a hinderance for your team if the enemy is advancing.

next example you get hit and try to smoke up to return fire -> you're a sitting duck in a smoke screen which easily can be torped, hydro'ed or radared.

another example: you smoke up and try to shoot but nobody spots for you -> ggwp.

Saw a khaba decide to smoke in my match with miss georgy when our team decided to throw and suicide one by one into a smollensk, montana and ibuki, like the idiots that they were...

 

160k damage game as well.

 

oh well.

So far all my experience of HNLMS Friesland comes from torpedoing both the examples that I encountered on the other team (on two separate occasions) with my Harugumo's torps..

But I met @WG_Lumberjack today and we talked about the ship for a bit, as a result I am now considering buying her and taking my chances..

Past few games with Haru were disastrous, in part as teams keep going AC despite a certain topic on these here forums..

So if I end up losing anyway, might do so with a Dutch ship at least, right?

I still fear she'll be above my skill level (not that much needed for that), but still..

Friesland is a very weak ship, so if you dont have a very high frustration tolerance i suggest you keep as far away from it as spossible.

Friesland is far from a weak ship! Yes it's a totally different play style but weak that ship is definitely NOT, Gotta watch the mini map more, be more aware of surroundings, don't be a dumb [edited]and sit in smoke with blinkers on and you should be fine, Rips planes to shreds and 1-1 with most dd's is not a problem as long you don't run into torps.

Still a bad ship, and one of the weakest T9 DD in game right now.
