[G-R-N] SamuraiFromGreece Players 7 posts 16,101 battles Report post #1 Posted June 21, 2020 Well i guess having those 3 ships coming up soon i guess the slava will be a tech tree ship and not a coal or even steel ship...i am asking because i have to save some coal for SLAVA and take later the THUNDERER which i already have collected all the required coal. Probably its too early to know but i had to ask... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If she does become a tech tree ship then we will see a russian bb split (maybe another afterwards) that focus on long range sniping rather up close brawling like with the current line. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please no. I'm really as far as it's possible from thoughtless hate towards Russian ships but this if it's true is just ridiculous. Borodino due to her uniqness of design is other case as beyond Izumo and Richelieu all strange turret layout battleships are premiums. To the OP. So far there are no info about currency for which will be aivailaible Slava. She is in WiP and some ships remain in such state for very long time ( Italian DD Leone is WiP from two or three years ) There are no official info about removal of Thunderer and this rumors spreaded by players were not true so far. Personally I would be suprised if she would be not coal or steel ship. Shikishima few weeks ago joined Armory so I really doubt that Slava for steel will be introduced fast considering how big meme she become. Thunderer was present in Armory from long time. TBH Slava could be aivailaible for any currency in game, even as Dedushka Moroz present to from WG as reward in Christmas Event as there are no info. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rumored by who? Slava and Zarya have totally different characteristics. And seems like Zarya should be a premium for next collab. Slava was intended as alternate tech tree T10, from Soyuz but I think this was scrapped and Slava is now T10 "freemium" or special ships or whatever you want to call it. 3 minutes ago, Karasu_Hidesuke said: Was there some talk about something called Pobeda? Originally Slava was announced as Pobeda or it was just initially tested under that name. Not sure but Pobeda and Slava are same ship. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[PEZ] Yedwy Players 11,301 posts 39,586 battles Report post #12 Posted June 21, 2020 I seriously doubt Slava will be tech-tree... Taking into account that recently we had one T10 BB added for steel, Thunderer is still not that long in game for coal at T10, that we have a Coal T9 in works to replace JB (Pommern ex Ludendorf) I would take a guess... Zarya Svobody (should she be added as such and not as an event ship) might be FreeXP as we didnt have a BB for FreeXP since Musashi... Slava will either join Ohio for RP or even replace her 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slava was originally intended to be an alternate T10, coming from Soyuz. Zarya Svobody is totally different and i really hope its gonna get nerfed, because it has 80mm deck armor currently. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know what Slava was meant to be - I was here back then... ^^ However that seemed to be water under the bridge for a while now, I think its pretty clear we wont see that happening... As for Zarya I dot know much about her apart from what you can see from the full tree view in game so i have no idea what their intentions are Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No she doesn't, she has a 60mm deck with 32mm fore and aft. She has the same armour layout as a stock Sovetsky Soyuz because that's essentially what she is. Pommern has areas of 80mm deck however.

[G-R-N] SamuraiFromGreece Players 7 posts 16,101 battles Report post #20 Posted June 21, 2020 I don't know about you....i would like SLAVA to be a tech tree ship...i want to be able to grind for that ship without spending years to collect the steel required to buy it(i am not a super unicum player and not in a TYPHOON Clan)!!! All this grind for steel and coal at least for me its tiring!Ships with such amount of power should be given freely to all players... And also who cares how many splits will the Russian lines will have as long as it is a free ship! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[-ARB-] Gelinni Beta Tester 76 posts 13,866 battles Report post #22 Posted June 21, 2020 I don’t think we will see the Slava as a TT or a steal ship (got Shiki lately). Imo it will be coal or… there will be some RP grind to push the RB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
