[HPF] Ocsimano18 Players 3,476 posts 13,949 battles Report post #1 Posted March 19, 2021 I unlocked both Marco Polo and Ohio this week. I can easily make 100k+ in Marco Polo and get a win, while Ohio is lackluster and barely makes any damage. Overpens Minos, makes 2k hits on BBs, misses most shots, etc. If you're looking for a garbage ship, then it's Ohio. 26 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[HPF] Ocsimano18 Players 3,476 posts 13,949 battles Report post #4 Posted March 19, 2021 Guys, this was not a troll post. This is my initial impression after a few battles. With Marco a bad hit means 5k, with Ohio it’s 2k. You can barely hit anything at range. I was kind of expecting more of Marco Polo, and thought that I’ll get a treat after finally unlocking the Ohio, and the differnce will be enourmous as claimed by some others. After getting used to Marco’s gunner, Ohio was a step back. Maybe Ohio would work at closer ranges, but how are you supposed to get closer in the current meta? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[THESO] asalonen Privateer 791 posts 15,219 battles Report post #8 Posted March 19, 2021 This was my first game in the Ohio, a couple months back. It is a great ship. It has the BEST secondary battery in game, so try to make it work. Get the maximum secondary range and dispersion, but maybe sacrifice some reload. But accept that some battles will be frustrating if you cannot reasonably close the distance. Compared to Georgia, it suffers from being sluggish. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Compared to Georgia, it suffers from being sluggish. To be entirely fair, there are times when you just can't close the distance. Or games where good damage just wasn't there for you to get for various reasons, like say..Team being too good. And, contrary to popular belief that's not always the ship's fault. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not the only one, although in my case it's because I hate the idea of a sniping BB. And before anyone points to my one game in Campagne, I got her out of a xmas container. Will almost certainly only play her for the snowflakes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guns should be still as potent as ever while Ohio can equip range mod without compromising Accuracy or Reload one. And angled Montana hull at longer ranges can be outright annoying to deal with Still, why get Ohio when Georgia existed at tier lower in more fun package?

Ohio is not the ship you pick to steamroll randoms, and it takes some time to get used to the play style that suits her best. Marco Polo is a well rounded ship that could more easily get you the high damage games you are looking for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[0KILL] AkerJack Players 444 posts Report post #25 Posted March 20, 2021 Ohio has a better dispersion, better sigma value better DPM, better reload time and way far better secondaries that have not been needed that much with the rework... The Marco Polo advantage is the speed and the SAP shells...but I will stick with my Ohio! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
