The voucher won't help until that thing is moved to the ship section... Besides obscenely balansed healing potential and decent stealth, I cannot discern any particularly excellent feature (from data, not from actually wasting resources for blyatmobiles). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SHAD] gopher31 Players 5,016 posts 20,150 battles Report post #4 Posted December 17, 2020 I like her but she should probably play as a torp boat. I have a gunboat captain on her as gunboat in both the Grozovoi and Khaba (though i never play Khaba!). She strong with her 5.6km detection and nice heal. She doesn't really have a weakness except for her poor gun dpm, you make up for this by dueling destroyers at a distance, taking advantage of the shell speed, and healing . She is strong but I'm pretty sure she isn't OP. The Coal price, especially now, is very high. Marceau is less than 200,000 coal with the coupon and is a tier 10. I probably wouldn't recommend buying it unless you have lots of surplus coal. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know they are two different DDs in different tiers with totally different characteristics and play styles. One is a tier 9 DD which is mainly torpedo focused and uses its super heal advantage against enemy DDs in close combats. The other one, Marceau is a gun focused tier 10 boat with also somewhat useable torpedoes but has no heal or smoke. Marceau is more difficult to play especially when you consider running into CVs in many games. Totally up to your taste. You want fast paced adrenalin rush game or a safer play knowing you won't see the bottom of ocean often since you can utilize your super heal and smoke in Neustrashimy? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kfa Beta Tester 1,975 posts 13,870 battles Report post #7 Posted December 17, 2020 Its a jack of all trades workhorse DD, esentially a Tier9 Grozovoi who trades a gunturret for a superheal and superior concealment. It can contest caps. It can fight other DDs. It can deter planes. It can outlast other DDs and stay alive in long games. It can torp stuff. It can do all of these things but its not the best in any of those areas, deceide yourself if you would be happy with that or not. I like mine. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[OGHF] Cyclops_ Players 1,871 posts 30,380 battles Report post #8 Posted December 17, 2020 Not got the Marceau, but bought the Neustrashimy last month, only played her a few times but she is a good torp boat as well as a gun boat, so a bit of an all rounder as per screen shot. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Myself a DD main I am grinding coal for the ship, I want to get it. It is a cross between Ognevoi and Grozovoi. Exactly what a T9 DD in that line should be ...

[PRS] The_Pillager Beta Tester 2,511 posts 15,441 battles Report post #10 Posted December 17, 2020 Well, I was lucky to get her out of a regular x-mas container these days. I admit, this was a very lucky coincidence, because I already own so many premium ships and i never ever would have spent 300 k coal on a T9 DD. No matter how good it might be. So the Neustrashimy, brandnew in my port, so not much experience up to now. I was doing a lot of coops to se what I have got there, but my first maiden random voyages were pretty satisfying. I have a complete torpedo-build, modules plus captain skill. Gives me a relaod time of 95,6 seconds for the torpedo tubes, which is absolutely comfortable. The range of 10 km is ... okish ... could be more, sure, but i feel its ok. Torpedospeed is 68 knots (with module), fast enough. The guns are reliable old friends, just 4 in 2 turrets but I dont have any issues with that and the reload of 4 seconds is good enough for me. The base range of 12,8 km is fantastic. Its a torpedoboat for me, not a gunboat. AA is not at a Halland-level, but good enough to make T8 CV work for their money. The highlights are the camo and the heal. 5,6 km is top among the Toptier DD and allows you to sneak up to almost everybody, especially as you have this godlike heal as a backup. It might not be a ship for everybody, definitely its kind of ... different. And I would not have paid 300 k coal for it, I have to admit. Me personally I loved my Ognevoi for whatever reason and i like my Siliwangi, so Neustrashimy feels right at home with me. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[NWP] Bear__Necessities Players 4,630 posts 14,844 battles Report post #11 Posted December 17, 2020 Very good. I watched Maltese Knight rack up 150k with just guns and tank a million and still have a 1/4 HP left. I like using mine to win knife 🔪 fights in the caps early then control my zones. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[S_W] N00Boo7 Players 396 posts 30,101 battles Report post #12 Posted December 17, 2020 I got it when it was for steel. Never regret it. For competitive mode is a very powerful DD in the right hands. Each heal will pump u 8k HP+ depends of signals. with a 24k HP pool. I had games with 40.000 dmg taken and survived. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These two ships may as well be different classes to be honest. Concealment 5.6km vs 7.0km Marceau has roughly double the dpm. ExecuteOrder66 and Kfa describe the ship very well. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[UN] AlwaysBadLuckWithTeams Weekend Tester 1,469 posts 37,910 battles Report post #17 Posted December 17, 2020 Do you have Khaba and Grozovoi? You do notice the difference in gun dps, 4 vs 3 turrets. And now take away even one more turret for Neustra. She needs the heal because it will take her so damn much longer to gun down enemy dds, thus taking unnecessary damage in the process. It's more like an Ognevoi at t9 than a downtiered t10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good choice; although I haven't played a huge number of games so far in mine (from an Xmas box), she's showing signs of becoming a firm favourite. She seems to be exactly the sort of sneaky DD, with a decent torp-gun balance that I like; also the AA isn't entirely disastrous (DefAA), and the heal is glorious. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
