Worst T10 BB in your opinion?

My worst-performing is the GK, but I suspect my numbers would've become better if I'd stuck with her instead of going back to the Bismarck (more history and all...)

 

The weirdest one for me is the République.

I've had wonderful games with her, and she's above my T10 average, but I still think she's an odd duck:

 

- she's supposed to be fast and agile thanks to the speed boost, but in practice she bleeds speed at the slightest touch of her rudder;

- the turret arrangement is very unfavorable for the camping meta: if all 8 guns were at the front she'd be a lot better close to islands, instead she has to play mostly as a flanker;

- she used to have good secondaries before the rework, so a hybrid build was reasonable, but she's covered in 32 mm armor, so she's super vulnerable to HE spam and can't close the distance to use them.

 

I can't comment on Ohio and Slava, as I have neither.

 

EDIT: I forgot about the Vermont. Very unwieldy, I much prefer the Minnesota.

In my opinion there is no worst t10 BB but some BBs may have more fans than others due to the nation or ship characteristics.

Vermont is my newest port queen. She's not my type of ship.

Grosse Kurfurst is one of the worst nowadays, although she was my favorite before. Main guns are crap - low caliber, bad dispersion; Secondaries - before were main reason to play this ship, nowadays, due to retarded decision from game designers, secondaries are pretty useless against main threat to that BB - DDs and light cruisers.

And that was a mistake. Secondaries are a hindrance for too many BB players in high Tier.

GK is a ship that is rushed into the enemy too early by too many players.

 

A balanced tank build with improved dispersion works better in high Tier.

curry by far, the rep will get pretty close post dead eye, but still curry by far. The poor pen, gun angles, mobility make it just uncomfortable and underwhelming

Depends on the playstyle. Some people don't like Montana lower velocity shells, some don't like Kremlin cause you need to be pushing with your team to be effective and your AA is gone pretty easy, some don't like GK same thing like Kremlin, Conqueror for others is too boring to play, Vermont too slow.

Republique, for three reasons;

  1. It's coated in 32mm armour and burns easier than artifacts at Burning Man => questionable survivability 
  2. Low HP pool, and unlike Conqueror it doesn't get super heal => questionable survivability 
  3. Guns are too inconsistent => questionable firepower

What?

How can you even have a thread on this, haven't you been paying attention?

 

The Thunderer is the worst.

 

Don't know why they have this forum if noone is going to read it mutter mutter

Everyone will see it differently, if that wasn't already obvious lol.

Personally, Vermont has slow reload, Colombo has poor range and poor reload, Kremlin has poor range and iffy dispersion.

Thunderer is easy, Conquerer probably is too, but that doesn't necessarily mean they are "the best", unless AP is used more, but they all have merits and issues to be fair.

Kremlin

Short range shotguns. Worst AA at T10.

If Thunderer player know what he is doing. You don't stand a change. (So many Thunderer)

In a CV game you are just a floating piggy bank for the CV.

I don't know, my first TX BB I think was Montana, she's ok but a bit squishy like most American BB's (purely my own opinion here so I may very well be wrong) the Republique soon got canned, did not like her at all, and this may surprise some but for al who say the kremlin is OP, she doesn't really do it for me, maybe good in a division or something, but RU BB's as a whole i think I may have lost my way with them, god knows where.

Thunderer, GK and Conqueror would be my go to ships BB wise.

Only have Thunderer and Kremlin , and i just don't feel it with the kremlin , i would trade it for a republique or yamato in a heartbeat . Thunderer got boring after a while . 

As for worst BB I don't know , most of the oldies need some small touch ups , GK some improved turret angles , montana a bit more pen , yamato the old 0.66% heal , repu might benefit from a fast reloading heal a la ohio .

And a fix to secondaries for everyone , with the improved range i feel a lot more ships can be memed .

Also low caliber guns should be capable of penetrating 19mm superstructure by default , looking at the 90-105mm guns .

 

 

But that's just my opinion on a forum that WG doesn't care about :fish_aqua:

There are some that are more suited to competitive than others but I wouldn't say there is a ''worst'' one. 

 

My least favourite is probably Vermont, but I like them all in their own way. 

Not including Slava. I don't have it and I'm not that interested given that I hate RB.

Vermont, no question. All the other BBs have respectable to good secondaries, ~30 knot speeds, excellent main guns, and good reloads. Vermont? Hahahahahaha. I have no idea what the devs were thinking with that, and they usually do a good job balancing ships, Russian ships excepted.

This, oh so very much this. In my humble opinion of course.
