Arizona has 1.8 sigma and 220m max dispersion. That's barely better than several of the silvers. With a whooping 35s reload.

Highly problematic and not worth the money. The ship has two major flaws: -Too slow turret traverse for a Battlecruiser. -WW1 shells with bad values. It also took a large hit when the AA went from very good at tier, to angry German with a bottle of beer. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's accurate, hits hard, claps hard on cruisers and BB's and has enough guns to land good damage on DD's. Good in the turn for avoiding torps and has more than good enough range. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have heard wrong. Arizona used to be very good ship. But changes of the armor models and introduction of new ships (namely Izmail and Normandie) have made it fairly medicore. It is still not a bad ship, but far from OP. It is still better than PEF 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was referring to the P E F being op, just a general talk I heard ,I have the Normandie and I do like her, also one or two games in the Izmail, which just might grow on me yet.

[BBMM] BLUB__BLUB [BBMM] Players 8,818 posts 17,199 battles Report post #16 Posted September 13, 2019 Well my #1 ship is Hood, by far the most played. I picked it carefully. But my #2 ship is Arizona... BOOMSHANKA! If you like the old slow US BBs she's great. I also have Texas, the premium NY. At Colorado it's getting a bit too slow in T7... but if you are top tier it's bloody murder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PEF is very good when Top Tier. It guns cause penetration damage and citadels, when other BBs Overpenetrate and it has good dispersion. If it gets up-tiered, it becomes one of the weakest. Good dispersion does not do anything, when you have only 8.guns, with no overmatch capability and medicore penetration. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Accurate If you can shoot DDs, take it. If you can shoot Cruisers, take it. If you wanna shoot BBs from longrange, take something else because it lacks pen. But if you get rid of DDs/Cruisers first, you can close the distance against enemy BBs and then you pen is good enough to punish them aswell. Thats my hitrate in 16 games ranked sprint. And thats even with shooting DDs all the time, since there were games with 3-4 DDs quite often. Have only played 1 random game with it, where i got 44% Hitratio This thing blapps Cruiser left and right. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll have to take my Arizona out for spin again one of these days, I guess - its' been a fairly long time now and I might find her more amenable than when I first tried her out. One thing she does not have, however, is speed - and that would also be the main reason if I'd try to advocate the PeF for, say, operations. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That sounds highly accurate for a tier 6 BB, compared to new mexico or normandie where the shells go every but the sodding ship your aiming at. 25mm will always be trash its only good at tier 4 and below at tier5 its questionable and tier 6 is taking miccy tier 7 then im wondering what drugs the designers of said ships were taking when they still thought armour profiles like that were still good. Unless im missing something. Although with the izmail you might as well not bother with talking about armour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
