Charleston requires me to tape down the mouse button, else my fingers would hurt after the first few hundred shots fired. Yubari is - in WG's truthful words - a powerful AA cruiser ( ), and who would not like one at "why only double CV?"-tier 4? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nassau, Knyaz Surov and Konig albert Tier 4. Kaiser, Imperator, Ishuzuchi, Orion, Wyoming Tier 2. Mikasa coz who cares about guns anyway For CVs Tier 4. Rhein is the best of em all. Hosho too For cruisers Tier 3. All of em are good. St Louis is in a class of its own tho Tier 4. I would say Duguay Tronin, but again, all are good enough. Iwaki Alpha tho is pretty spicy For DDs Japanese, German, US and Russian have the most fun factor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[NMA] Prophecy82 Players 3,362 posts 26,028 battles Report post #7 Posted June 10, 2021 If you have a clue how to ambush torp ppl from island cover... take Clemson. It is the ultimate Sealclubber at T4. I dont know if this works nowadays but I had IFHE on my Clemson (was the Flint Captain) and I was able to HE-Cit Cruisers regulary. Take it! Hug the Islands and maybe it can even teach you a few things about Island (ab-)use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So you think being an experienced and good player in low tier is not perverted enough. You also want the best ship? You can't just pick the most underpowered ship with some 3 pointer and show that you can still rofl-stomp the new and inexperienced players like that? You actually need advice after 5k battles for a T3-ship and you ask such a question in the forum? *throws old virtual tomato* Shame on you, sir. Just be a pro. Regrind some lines. There you still fight a few battles in the low tiers. Don't let seal-clubbing get the better of you. 2 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some of mentioned ship can be utilised minimum 10 point captain. Tenryu needs concealment expert otherwise cant stealth torp and BBs will eat You alive. Yubari need this skill too with most AA skill.

I disagree. To me, it's not about sealclubbing, it's about unfun mid- and high tiers. 1) I like the low tier ships and gameplay. 2) WG continues to make mid- and hightier PvP gamemodes unattractive to me (ever increasing influx of hilarious plane plague machines, long range campers etc.). 3) Some unique commanders have talents which simply cannot be activated in PvE gamemodes, so I will assign all of them (and of course they are at 21 points) to T2 ships once the next skill crapfest goes live. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There you still fight a few battles in the low tiers. Don't let seal-clubbing get the better of you. Im very disgusted with WG for some time, im not in mood to regrind any line or grind line i dont have and i dont like, so im searching things that would make me stay with Wows a bit longer, im not pro or even close to be near any pro player. I will probably try some cruisers mentioned above and maybe some dds, if most matches will be with half or more bots instead of players i will probably go back to higher tiers. Sometimes seal clubbing may be good for some ppl, if low tiers are infested with bots (i mean real bots), and normal new players see charging bot not knowing its bot how will he learn anything? I will hope that some seal clubbing would make some new players go and search internet for more info to get better, but ill bet it will also have other bad effect, some will probably get angry and would start buying high tiers ships.

Granted, not for those that meet me... Got the Tachibanana and Smith for "torpedo jousting" in Clan training room. With current captain-stuff you can actually stick a T10 21 pint BB captain on them and give them special skills. However, some really filthy sealclubbing and countdown-click-in happened... but must say I recognised many names... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[HIME] Wedontneedmoregrippen Players 70 posts Report post #22 Posted June 10, 2021 Keep in mind: T4 have "heavy" CV infestation -> 2 CV in a game expected and they want join club too. I think very few of them is learning to use the CV class... BB influx present too. If they use stat miner and Your stats is not hidden You can be abused by them. Spotted all day by a CV is a bad sign for low tier cruiser and dd. Bad AA and poor ruddes can harm too. If try to avoid drop can be vulnerable "sniper" BBs from that tier. HP loose permanent for smaller ships that tier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd switch 2 and 3, but it doesn't matter. It's that the playing field is not level. Having CE and RPF and other useful skills at tier IV will make up for quite a bit of skill. A potato will be a potato, of course, but for average and above players, the captain makes a huge difference. I stay at tier X, where the playing field is level and there are no blatantly OP ships.
