I think that if a player is not very good with BB, he will have to get closer to score hits, while good players can hit him at all ranges. Therefore this skill is more useful for mediocre BB players, but they won't get any better by camping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[XTREM] Miragetank90 Players 2,626 posts 18,702 battles Report post #8 Posted March 4, 2021 As rewarding as it is on Yama and Shiki I will not miss it, given given the absolutely cancerous nature of DE Thunderer, for example. In the latter case it's literal easy mode, and combine the spam of said ship with the current meta forced by the prominence of DE owing to it's strength as a skill, any attempt to break the mould and play proactively or up close as a BB is frustrated and greatly diminished, at least in tier 10 randoms. It sucks. The situation is a little more complicated than just DE but gameplay became frustrating and changed for the worse, generally speaking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Usually good players don't need Dead Eye to be able to "punish noobs" or to be able to be impactful in the game. Only a selected few, generally more bad players who don't see how the skill impacts the meta, will miss the skill. Good players will not miss it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mistakes being more punishing? I am rly going to miss this skill There is punishing poor playing, and then there is exploiting a broken system and completely relegating an entire class to port queen status. Now when I started playing this game I quickly learned that if you have a problem fighting against a ship or a class you should play it and learn what it can or can not do. What I found with DEADEYE in ships like Minnesota, Thunderer, Vermont, Yamato, Musashi, Conqueror, Grober Kurfurst, Republique, and Montana was that as long as I led correctly I was taking 50% or more per salvo. Mind you I was not firing all the time when the guns were off cool down and was picking my shots, but still. The point where I realized this was a problem was when I was able to get 5 citadels against a t9 russian bb at 17km in the Minnesota doing 62k damage. Then in the next game got 4 on an atago at 16km(he never had a chance to shoot once). As to why people who play this game complain is because unlike WG we actually have a clue what balance is and should be. DEADEYE should have never been tested live.

That doesnt mean, that deadeye is a good skill to have. Its bad for bad players, because they are better off with shotgun dispersion, but its too good for good players, because they can aim where they want to hit. So even considering its a dummy-skill for majority of the playerbase, its still bad for the game, because we dont need to increase the skillgap even further. Its bad for the game, it made BB sniping from the back even worse, and it made good BB players stronger - GG WG 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
