[P-A-R] _Lupastro_ Players 1,012 posts 13,896 battles Report post #1 Posted August 26, 2020 . Hi everybody! I've reached 1M of FXP and maybe it's time to collect a new ship. Not very interested in Azuma, even if I don't know why... just feelings... Can't choose Alaska or Agir... Atm I'm having fun with german ships, Hipper, Mainz, Bismarck... But Alaska and Agir seems similar, same guns, Alaska has batter armor on paper... Can't decide... I'm not looking for an OP ship or a "choose this for easy win" Or maybe I have just to reach 2M and take Friesland... But I'm not very skilled to play with this kind of Dds.. So... What's your opinions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[CHEFT] DFens_666 Players 13,162 posts 11,029 battles Report post #4 Posted August 26, 2020 Dont take Azuma or Friesland. Alaska and Ägir are the go to ships. Both good, but a bit different. Ägir is better at rushing ships end game, due to torps, especially those BBs which dont have a citadel. Alaska has Radar and is a bit harder to citadel. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[HEROZ] GulvkluderGuld Players 3,467 posts 22,114 battles Report post #6 Posted August 26, 2020 Alaska is probably the best and most versatile ship Friesland, Småland and Hayate are overpriced (i dont buy the latter two despite having 2,3 mio FXP) If considering Friesland, you should get Kitakaze instead. It is superior to Friesland in almost every way that matters. Azuma is a one-dimensional HE spammer. Big Ibuki with Upsized citadel and worse concealment as well as no torps. Alaska is liked by many but not by me (the guns are very unreliable with dispersion fit to outdo drunk german secondary gunners) Dont have Ægir. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't decide... I'm not looking for an OP ship or a "choose this for easy win" They are same caliber but there is significant difference between their guns. Alaska is better overall but maybe won't suit your game style. I would suggest you to read LWM reviews of the ships and maybe watch some videos on YT about their gameplay before you make decision. 9 minutes ago, _Lupastro_ said: Or maybe I have just to reach 2M and take Friesland... But I'm not very skilled to play with this kind of Dds.. So... Friesland is 1mil, Smaland and Hayate are 2 mil tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SHAD] Miscommunication_dept Players 5,512 posts 24,438 battles Report post #10 Posted August 26, 2020 I prefer Agir but Alaska has been around a while and will most likely go first. Both are very strong and will almost certainly be very fun if they're your first supercruiser. Buy Alaska. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[N_R_A] Hopeless_Guppy Players 3,753 posts Report post #12 Posted August 26, 2020 I would say wait, and make a good decision later one, until recently I had well over the 1 mill fxp, then my brain made a strange noise and it all got blown on the new German CV's, do not do as i did, lol, wait for the next upcoming line of ships to be released, and hope that Flamu does not think they are fun and OP. (looks at the Agir, who even Flamu now admits is no fun t play, lol he was the one who got it nerfed) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[CRRZY] Silent_Hunter94 Players 64 posts 8,439 battles Report post #16 Posted August 26, 2020 Choose Alaska. It is a very good credit earner, and can take large chunks out of enemy BB's and cruisers. I think it is the only cruiser above tier 8 that I have managed to citadel BB's with. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What's your opinions? If you want a specific ship, take it. If, however, you don't have anything that you actually want... why spend the resource? Free XP is not going anywhere and it's one of the most useful resources in the game - you can skip some ships (or at least skip nasty grind of some modules that are sorely needed on certain ships to derive any sort of fun from playing them) and the future is likely to bring other freeXP ships as well... And seeing how you don't seem to really be enthusiastic about any of the choices (including Friesland), my advice would be to just save it for later. TL/DR: HOARD! HOARD ALL YOU CAN AND NEVER SPEND Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
