Yet, I didn't get any compensation, no doubloons. Now to be fair, you never said we would, but you also didn't say we wouldn't. Another PR win then. edit: eh. at least I have a camo now that looks as if The Donald puked on it. 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You will never receive dbls anymore for premiums in missions ... just credits. I got credits also for Anshan a while back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That may well be so, I didn't read that. Either way, I couldn't even tell, because credits are plenty. Would have preferred doubloons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have Kirov for years now, don't need credits anyway. I found it doable. Not easy, but manageable. But it depends on the ships one already has; e.g. I repeatedly parked a Bismarck next to some other BB to farm the 2000 badges with secondaries. The last one took me a while, mostly farmed citadels with my (existing) Kirov, ironically. But my friends whom I invited into the game, they gave up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[R_N_G] Bindolaf_Werebane Players 1,387 posts 12,045 battles Report post #7 Posted May 11, 2021 I have Kirov and certainly could use the 6M doubloons, but I can't be arsed to jump through all those hoops. Playing normally, I guess I'll get five of the necessary eight million credits (my current stage) and that will be that. Shrug. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I took out my Colbert twice for 1800 ribbons and Kleber for the remaining 200. 2000 ribbons in 3 battles. If i didn't own the Colbert, i would have taken out my Minotaur. In a BB it would have taken a LOT longer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In a BB it would have taken a LOT longer. Eh. Wasn't that bad. Sure, took me seven or eight games (three is very impressive!), but using an island to surprise a full health enemy BB, then ripping into it with secondaries ... 300 badges easily. I also tried Akizuki with the 3s fire hose, and Smolensk. both kinda worked, but still went back to Bismark, which worked better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SB] Erinnyes2000 Players 117 posts Report post #13 Posted May 11, 2021 Only done phase 1, and as a co-op,ops only player, that is as far as I can go. At least I have the Kirov; got her when she was still a tech tree ship. Frankly, a ridiculous grind for a Kirov. Should have been at least T7, if not T8 for those missions.

I'm not a great player, and I usually explode in the Smolensk in seconds. The Thunderer though? 100k+ every single game, and I'm untouchable. (Also: yes, I set fires from far away, spare me.

Also, the Thunderer doesn't fire so many shells the game can't render them making countering smoke nearly impossible. I'd rather the enemy team had 2 Thunderers than 1 smolensk.

Figment Beta Tester 3,801 posts 10,499 battles Report post #16 Posted May 11, 2021 Smolensk's homing beacons are great for smoke-citadels though. The more it spams, the easier it is to locate and often stationary or slow moving and easy to lead. So provided it's not behind an island at an impossible angle requiring a spotter, it's one of my least concerns. Colbert on the move otoh is a *(^$@@#*$ to get a good lead on with some slow reloading BBs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did the credit run in ranked and Missouri however that led to me somehow getting to rank 1 and want to stay in bronze so will need to go back to ransoms to complete remainder. should get the basexp done tonight then leaves me a few days for citadels which if don’t complete won’t be the end of the world.

[-RSN-] Gwynbleidd11 Players 384 posts 13,012 battles Report post #20 Posted May 12, 2021 I just started the last mission for 65 kills/cits/floodings so 5 days should be enough to finish it. However, the grind is hard especially for such a short time limit. More difficult than Anshan and recent dockyards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isn't it the last sprint of the season anyway so it doesn't matter if you qualify or not, you'll be in bronze next time anyway? Finished this yesterday, a last game with 5 kills, 5 cits and 4 floods in the Gaja helped no end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BAD-F] OldPappy Players 758 posts 21,952 battles Report post #22 Posted May 12, 2021 I am in the last mission. I think it’s 50 destroyed, 50 cits or 50 something else (which I have forgotten.) And I think they all count to the end result? I have the Kirov. Its a good ship for its tier. But I haven’t specifically done the missions. They have just followed when playing. 6 m credits is always nice, but I am usually at between 25 and 60 m credits anyway so they dont matter. I only find the last mission a bit steep, but it should require some effort to get a free ship I think! So for those who does not have Kirov its a good reward and a fun ship with excellent guns! For those who already have it then 6m credits extra while playing as usual should be nice. Plus some ok free stuff along the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
