Not only that, but good players would be done in less than a day. I know of a good but not exceptional player, a streamer, who had literally completed ALL available missions for dockyard, Strasbourg and the 3rd campaign - with the exception of the Hizen, CV and Furutaka mission - within 5 hours of the update going live. Problem is that WG has to balance these campaigns for (very) good players, bad players, players with a lot of time, players with little time, casual players and individuals that are a combination of the above.

[TRID] TheAlba2014 Players 400 posts 6,393 battles Report post #9 Posted December 24, 2020 The time delay is to incentivise you to buy the Strasbourg, rather than waiting to complete the Strasbourg campaign for free. Buying her gives you more time to complete ships and fates if you're interested in the rewards in that campaign. Just another marketing tactic like Santa's convoy in the past with the Graf Spee.

[CORAL] rumbletank Beta Tester 5 posts 21,568 battles Report post #10 Posted January 12, 2021 To complete the Stage 4 Campaign missions needs 14 stars to unlock final mission. 2 stars can only be earned by earning credits with the Hizen. Since the Hizen can not be earned in the dockyard for another 21 days minimum until final dockyard stage opens and the Campaign finishes in 9 days do the maths! To boost the Hizen in the dockyard assuming you earn all the possible stages 10 stages need to be purchased for 19500 doubloons (£55 to buy) Commander pack for the Strasbourg is on sale for £50 approx. What a con!!!! All that work completing the stages 1-3 missions wasted because I still need to spend real world money anyway. Might as well just have brought it outright 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As always in WoWs (this was introduced years and years ago) all players can simply REPEAT the missions they already finished in order to get all the stars needed! So, essentially, you can get all the stars by simply getting 3 stars over and over again per simplest mission in CoOp (i.e. be in top 5 in 12 games)!

You only get the per-task reward on the first go, but you can complete a mission as many times as you want and you will collect stars each time.

I actually have never noticed you could do that. Mind blown! I've been operating under the assumption you could only complete each task once for years. All the campaigns i've competed i've always completed each task to gain the stars Thanks for the help. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
