25cm bow, even T8 BBs will laugh at her. Few guys will grind it if in Tech tree, not to mention she will become premium, who will buy it? Do you guys want to sit in such a trash that will get overmatch citadel consistantly by all BB (even T8 ones), and be deleted in the first 2 min of each game?

"Russian BBs are OP. Balanced by Stalin. WG Bias!"

 

"Russian BB is trash. Who would play this ship? Wth WG?"

 

So if it's strong, it's crap. If it's not strong it's crap.

Armor is irrelevant, it will nuke everithing from 20 km anyway.

Did you check the gun specs? Its practical a Stalingrad with 406mm guns, without the bow armour it seems.

Stanlingrad has 50 cm deck, 20+s reload. This Slava eats every shell from all angles, with 33s reload, no hydro, no radar, less repair party. Well I think it's a worse version of Stalin, in short, this BB is weaker than a cruiser. We don't need more Russian OP ships, but we don't want to see more trash either.

I think some a missing the point, yes it has railguns, yes stalin has them as well.. But these ones are at 13,450 Alpha Dmg while stalin is at 9,200
And then add on the 24.7 km range, you can jsut sit in the back and railgun everyone.. armour at that point is not needed as any smart player would slow down or use their wsad hacks to dodge.
Slava is ment to be the fire at range ship while Kremlin is the get close up ship.
But still, she is still in testing so this all could change

If you want armour play Kremlin.


If you want gun performance play Slava.

 

Crying about both is stupid. If they gave Slava Kremlin's armour whilst maintaining its unique best in class gun perfromance it would be the most overpowered ship in the game. There is literally no reason at all to play something like Montana or Repub over a Kremlin right now, Why would they make this powercreep situation even worse by Adding an even more powerful Kremlin?.

 

Slava still is decently mobile, Slava still sits ridiuclously low in the water with a great armour belt, Slava still has great concealment, Slava still gets OP russian DCP, Slava still gets access to OP Kuznetsov, Slava still had more armour than the likes of Thunderer and i dont see anyone calling Thunderer underpowered. She is absolutely fine.


She would be the most dumb broken ship in the game if she never took this desperately needed armour nerf.

Read again, slowly: 228m dispersion at 24,7km distance.....

Dude... To me it seems she has the same bow armor sheme as Stalingrad and thats including icebraker, now when we discuss Stalin we always hear how she is squishy bow on right? Oh wait...

 

Another thing, she has the same disperison as Stalingrad ony its on 16" guns and even longer range...

 

This thing is a sniping monster, I have no issues taking that out anytime

 

Edit:

On second look she still has 32mm DECK on both the bow and stern and 100mm strips so even stronger then Stalin

If this is true: good, very good.

 

Sadly, it's not true.

This PoS is broken, like many other PoS ships of the fantasy navy.

And complaining now that it's "crap", won't get her any buffs.

 

People should complain that this broken crap makes it into the game in the first place.

At long range theses are the most accurate battleship guns in the game with the best penetration.

 

A Slava should stay at long ranges (15+km)  and find a good crossfire position and will get citadel after citadel at broadside battleships from  long ranges (541mm open at 20km).

 

It will be fairly weak at close ranges and that is how they are trying to balance it out.

 

Looks like the kind of ship where good players will do crazy things with it while poor players die in the first five minutes!

Should be played like the French/British bbs, i bet you it would do more consistent damage from range than any other bb in the game from 15+ KM.

Is this WGs answer to BBs sitting at the map border doing nothing? Giving ridiculous range so they are even more encouraged to camp as far back as possible?

They should rather cut all BB range in half to make for more interesting battles :cap_haloween:... More range is definitely the wrong direction...

That's because the UI doesn;t show the whole story. 

Yamato has a vertical dispersion of 131m at 19km.

The Slava has a vertical dispersion of 64m at the same range, less than half!

Vertical dispersion is also the reason why soviet battleships seem so accurate  even the Kremlin has 90m vertical dispersion at 19km.

 

The cynic in me believes that Wargaming tied the soviet battleship accuracy to improved vertical dispersion as its not a widely reported stat.

Yep. 

It’s historically accurate tho, as shooting the fisher fleet at Dogger Bank in the R-J war and engaging more fish trawlers in glorious battles of life and death during WWI and WWII gave them lots of training and incredible accuracy, which is represented by this hidden little stat ingame.
