I was thinking about Kremlin, and in KOTS the top teams played it close to the caps, behind islands, and ambushed what ever, I dont know if this helps you Good Luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[FBC] Logan_MountStuart Players 416 posts 10,715 battles Report post #5 Posted December 16, 2019 Recently it's become MInotaur. After 150 odd battles I was close to 60% and regularly topping 100k, and in the last month I've dropped to 47% and a very average 64k damage. If I do decent damage it seems to be when the team capitulates and there are times I've potatoed and done nothing to help them. Meanwhile I've gone from being useless in Des Moines to averaging 111k in the last 20 battles, epic stats for me! lol As a man said many years ago, "it's a funny old game!" 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[-TPF-] invicta2012 Players 6,382 posts 26,855 battles Report post #6 Posted December 16, 2019 Scharnhorst. Can't hit a barn door in it. No idea why. I'm told it has better dispersion than any other BB at it's Tier, but it just makes me miss, every time. Also: Gadjah Mada. People keep telling me how great this DD is, but I do better in Jervis, or Haida... which are pretty much the same ship. GM always clunked, no idea why.

[CHEFT] DFens_666 Players 13,162 posts 11,029 battles Report post #7 Posted December 16, 2019 Probably gonna go with Montana. I think, every TX ship has either been lucky or unlucky after i got them. GK/Monty/Wooster have been the bad ones Stalin/Smolensk/Salem were lucky ones Hindenburg/Mino dont recall anymore, too long ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worst today was my Bismarck. All expensive special flags etc, first and only aircraft torpedo that hits me 5 minutes in at nearly full health (to the nose no less) detonates...retarded mechanism, I can understand when it hits a citadel area, but the nose... Had something like 9 losses in a row too with both Bismarck and Amalfi. Every time I was in top 3 players of our team. So frustrating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[CHEFT] ForlornSailor Players 7,374 posts 11,735 battles Report post #13 Posted December 17, 2019 Jean Bart. The craziest losses with that ship. My teams throwing won games like CV yoloing in to die with 10 sec on the clock so enemy win by points? Or me and the enemy DD are the last guys left, the DD isnt very bright, he smokes up, so I rush him, spot him, he throws torps on my bow, while im reload boosting him out of the game im thinking "yea nice dude, you torped my bow, thx, ill take one, not a problem with almost 40k hea...WUT?? I DETONATED???" stuff like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems to share the same problem. Both ships considered broken OP, and dont get me wrong, I almost always get amazing games in her, but for some reason I almost always get the worst potatoe teams I ever seen when playing her. Have the lowest WR in Smolensk of all my T10 cruisers (and I have them all), and im usually at the top of the leaderboard.... on the loosing team. So CURSED I say ........

Because it feels so much slower even with the engine acceleration module. Engine acceleration module won't do much for you on a Monty, don't use it. Remember, this module doesn't increase your top speed, it only boosts your initial acceleration, and because it's percentage based and a bb's acceleration is quite low, the gains are negligible (and won't be enough to let you throttle dodge at range). I would suggest looking up proper builds for ships (modules, captain skills) before you drop money and points in them. Plenty of good players / cc's with videos on specific ships. You can also ask here, though I'd check the profiles of people who do respond in that case - you probably don't want build advice from someone who isn't actually good at the game. Anyhow, on Monty (and bb's in general) use either use damage con mod 2 or rudder shift in that slot, whatever you find more comfortable. With me, cursed ships seem to shift - and I can sometimes get what I call a "new ship curse"; it happened back when I first got the Stalingrad, for example.. it made me stop playing it for a long, long time.. I occasionally take her out now and she seems to work now. I guess the curse moved over to Ohio, the ship in which my shells bounce and my teams melt. Sigh. At least my Thunderer works.

But imo it felt like a pain to take about a full minute till I'm actually moving at top speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
