[POPPY] Sadoone Players 4 posts 16,282 battles Report post #1 Posted August 12, 2020 Hi, i love playing my mino because it's an allround ship, have quite a few battles in it. before the rework of CV it was a superior AA cruiser, now.? not so much, BUT i had peace with it because it is still a little decent, and ships shooting at me because i was spotted is something i can dodge. in my last game, the new CV of mighty Germany attacked me as the first ship, he did a 26k rocketstrike on me, after that 25k.. could not heal it back because the rockets citadelled me, 1 shell hit from thunderer was enough to finish me, game ended for me right there after 4 minutes and zero dmg, cv? 22 citadells on me... i know WG doesnt give crap about their playerbase, but i mean cmon! this is just stupid. i really start to dislike this game, and i hate it that it does because i loved it! 12 2 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(normally) after the first strike i thought holy crap! that was a lucky strike for him, after the second run i was in a channel so could not manouver that much and caught my broadside again, afte rthat i realised it were no ordinary rockets.... but as i wrote, it was allready too late. and no, i denot research new carriers or ships, so this is suprising to me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep the AP rockets are nasty mainly because you cant heal cit damage back, however (again I didnt play Manfred so I might be wrong on her account) its easy to thwart most of it if you have room to manouver (this ofc includes not getting blapped by a Slava 20km away while dogging not only physical room to do it in), IMHO the easiest and most reliable way to use these planes is coming over islands full speed and slamming the side of the victim before they have time to do anything, in the open however its much harder to do consistent damage... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AA ships but you need to keep moving to dodge just dodge lol you probably shot down 3 planes so the CV paid for his attack if you don’t use AA build it’s your own fault you should just be happy you occupied a few minutes of a CV’s time if you don’t play CV you don’t know hard they are to use if you do plays CV you are probably too good in them so you don’t count 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As are radar cruisers if your in a DD....you probably like thease Ap rockets in a DD more than any other rocket planes....... Real question is did he get blaped every game a Ap plane showed up? question is wasnt it worth a smoke when they are so deadly and he saw them inc? Personally i think the germ CVs are next to useless having a lowered efectivness vs the targets CV are best agist especally in actually win games Then again Cruisers overall are nearly at the DD level as a punching bags with one super acurate railgun BB coming oneline after another and the release of the hypercelocity better pen angles no airdrag Ru Cruisers......
