[HPF] Ocsimano18 Players 3,476 posts 13,949 battles Report post #1 Posted February 22, 2022 DDs die in the first 5 minutes, and fail to get XP, WG: let’s nerf BB’s XP. Since Tier X battleships were earning significantly more XP on average than other ship types on their team, the amount of XP they earn for dealing damage has been reduced by about 7%. This change will make a team’s top spot more achievable for other ship types. https://blog.worldofwarships.com/blog/285 2 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This can motivate them only to move more away from them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SodaBubbles Players 1,553 posts 1,028 battles Report post #5 Posted February 23, 2022 Yes, yes, that was the problem with T10! BBs getting too much XP! Whew! Good to know T10 matches will be much better from now on. This reminds of the time they thought Kremlin was overperforming so they nerfed.... the AA. 3 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bracken03 Players 48 posts 5,854 battles Report post #6 Posted February 23, 2022 Yeah, why is it even important? XP on my Tier 10 ships is worthless to me. Maybe Commander XP? Would be more interesting if it were credits. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[HEROZ] GulvkluderGuld Players 3,467 posts 22,114 battles Report post #7 Posted February 23, 2022 Good and needed change for Ranked which is overpopulated with BB. No doubt they will cry. Ofc WG being WG they dont buff the other classes. Nope. Never that. It was always infuriating how those backline 20 km sniping BBs with full hp at the end of battle could save their star when instead they could have won the match easily if willing to position where their paint might get scratched. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If DDs do get less XP it's thanks to WG's bad system that rewards damage above all else. A great way for BBs to get better rewards is shooting high priority targets like DDs when they're spotted but that requires minimap awareness so of course it's not happening often.

Hmm.... Tier VIII and X carriers earn more XP for dealing damage (about 5% more for VIII; 15% for X), and proportionally less for winning battles. This way, carrier players who perform well but lose a battle are less likely to appear at the bottom of their team by XP. XP gained won't change significantly when a battle is won. I kinda... don't see how not playing for the win and encouraging people to just casually shat on everybody could be a gain. I mean....... dafaq is this B.S (??!??!) when one the reasons why Cv;s are soo beloved that they don't play for the win. And now they don't.... have to? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XP would mean progress toward the next ship in li.....oh wait, there isn't one. Well....you have to think about this in perspective. Their declared goal is to rework the economy of wows (roadmap video and devblog) By which they want to probably severely reduce the possible incomes (XP or otherwise) of the players. People don't play BB's for their economic appeal.I mean, just.....lol. 46 minutes ago, GulvkluderGuld said: Changes seem clearly aimed at ranked when taken in context with the posted CV xp changes. I disagree. What I see is they want to shift the focus of how Cv's are played, playing in hand with what the tendency is. Aka most of the Cv players doesn't know how to play for win, nor they want to learn. Ergo just casually shatting on everybody. This is like what the current derby is all about, and I think it is related to it. Meaning "just a "glorious" sh#tshow" Because ultimately a good Cv player win matches. A good Cv player knows what targets to attack and when. Removing the incentive for that is the outright denial of both of the class capabilities also its actual role and that of the the player. Aka the much discussed battle influence. If anything this will make me to show even more disdain towards the class and Wedgie. Unless I see other changes on the way meant to balance these changes out. 46 minutes ago, GulvkluderGuld said: Also ranked is near unplayable for other classes with 4 camping BBs and CV that all try to kill the single enemy CA and DD. Having greater representation of the other classes would provide more chances of a comeback. I agree but that is all about the player base and Wedgie's inability to manage and its complete disregard for that mode. Btw Cv's primarily targeting cruisers and dd's is quite arguably the way to play that mode, especially radar cruisers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nobody gets in a T10 BB for Ranked and worries about XP. They worry about credit earnings if they have no premium. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
