[FR-QC] Nail06_1 Players 4 posts Report post #1 Posted November 11, 2022 So I wanted to know If Siegfried will only be a research bureau ship, I saw it was supposed to be a Premium ship instead of a special ship and that's why I am asking if it will be perhaps available in the store someday (I know it's not a really good tier 9, but I like it visually). Thanks for reading! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The former get a baked-in, hidden credit bonus beyond the "bonus package" (which replaced permacamos) and the boosters (which replaced flags), while the latter don't. As for the Siegfried, she is a "premium" just like the Emilio, also for RB points, and all other non-tech-tree Tier 9s, be they for FXP (Azuma, Agir, Alaska, Groningen...), coal (Kearsarge, Iwami, Carnot, Neustrashimy...), steel (Black and Neustrashimy back then, Vallejo now) or just doubloons (G. Verdi). Meanwhile, all the Tier 10s, regardless the resource (e.g. Ohio, Hayate, Salem, Ragnar and ARP Yamato respectively), are "special ships", with the same perks except worse credit economy compared to Tier 9. Basically, I don't think there's anything special about the Siegfried. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She's a standard T9 premium as far as economy etc. goes; the only 'unusual' thing (not unique to Siegfried) about her is being available for RP only... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for reading! Not good??? One one my most favorite ships to play and pretty strong, armor, guns, accuracy, torpedoes. I see him lacking only in number of guns, but then again I citadel battleships like butter. Go for it 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The viability of regrinding where you actually play the ships will vary, depending on your view of submarines (and, perhaps to a lesser extent, superships); if you dislike playing in the same modes as submarines, several of the tiers don't have much choice. I've actually stopped doing resets now that I can't do so without having to play in submarine modes to complete the regrind, but YMMV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[FR-QC] Nail06_1 Players 4 posts Report post #7 Posted November 11, 2022 Yeah thank you, my friend told me that it is indeed really good but the main probleme is that tier 9 is only currently facing tier 11 (supership) and that's what currently ruined the battlecruiser but I will still grind it. But I see you know quite a lot about german ship could you tell me how is the FDG i wanna grind it but got bad opinions is she really that bad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TEAM_] Dampfboot Players 1,367 posts 11,386 battles Report post #8 Posted November 11, 2022 I also just noticed today that there are now "premium" and "special" ships. The difference is just the rewards earned / multiplier? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
