Why should I do that, when I'm utterly satisfied with a 3 pts captain? My post was rather about the captain's skills not playing a vital role on the basic performance of many ships.

The German has more guns, that fire faster, have WAY better range, and do more damage, and of course the German has the 1/4 HE pen. Konigsberg also has torpedoes. a much better hydro, and she's faster. The only real advantage Celebes has is a less vulnerable citadel, but that is only going to make a difference against other cruisers, not BB's. I know powercreep is a real thing and should be guarded against, but this thing enters T5 as what must be the weakest most underpowered cruiser. Not even gonna dress this one up. 🤮It's ridiculous. Konigsberg is one of the, if not the best T5 cruiser. Celebes comparatively is weaker, but I enjoyed her. Idk but I have found her AP to be quite nice. And I have trolled many BBs up close by just flat broadsiding and laughing as he fails to kill me. I think Eendracht is the only fun in this line coz the AA is amazing despite the range.

The captain is of no consequence, as I wrote before... it's rather the amount of potatoes that suicide within the first 5 minutes of the battle - like in the last three battles - and leave yours truly to fight a uphill battle - on the water, ha ha ha... - while BaBBies run away to... well... do BaBBy things?!? So winrate is down, but PR, damage and kills are still okay-ish. Still not a bad ship... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like I said, I don't care for it but I will take the free 3 pt Du Cpt.. Why would anyone spend doubloons (unless they are free doubloons) in WoWS now? This just encourages WG to stay the same (or worse) as they currently are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah i didn't noticed that My excuse ofcourse If i can give you a suggestion use a no captain for the raw base ship. I still find it much stronger then his counterparts....

Yes that is how you got it and why a 3 pt cpt if you can get a 6 pt cpt for 900k credits (10 pt for dubloens is to much) dismis it for 25% buy it again for 900k sells it for 25% and soon you have your 21 pt cpt for only credits. This is how those rich players get their 21 pt captains.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'd have to pull that 25% trick 300 times! A 6pt captain is 37.000CXP. 25% of that is 9.250CXP 900.000 silver purchasing + 10 silver / CXP earned during reset => 992.500 silver / reset (2.908.000CXP - 37.000) / 9250 ~ 311 (310.4 rounded up) 311 x 992.500 silver + 900.000 for new captain = 308.950.541 silver / 21pt captain starting at 6pt. Alternative with bought 6pt captains and resets with doubloons: (2.908.000 - 183.000) / 37.000 = 74 337 doubloons and 900.000 silver per reset for 100% CXP (37.000) = 24.938 doubloons and 66.600.000 silver Add 1.500 doubloons for a 10pt captain, makes 26.438 doubloons and 66.600.000 silver That's approximately €81 for the commander (25.000 gold) and €82 for 62.500.000 silver + some free gold and silver and you can buy your 21pt commander for roughly €163.
