I've never heard that they should be A LOT weaker than the regular ones. What was said back in WoT regarding premiums is that they should be somewhere between a stock and a fully upgraded regular vehicle of that tier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Type 59 and Super Pershing obviously comes to mind (the latter came with the ability for a full refund if you wanted), but compared to how many they've never nerfed I'm quite confident when getting premiums in WG games.

Now I really do wish for a buff to all my premium tanks, just to make it all the same, it would only be fair. After testing the ship for awhile at NA server I noticed a couple of characteristics that does put it slightly inferior to the Amagi/N.Carolina. Despite the great turret traverse speed and reload. The shell dispersion is very bad (the worst out of the T8 bbs), it matches well against BBs at tiers lower than it but not so well against the same tiers, and it seems to be lit on fire more easily by dive bombers. However, if played well you can average 350k ore more and great xp output. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im using it too to skip the Colorado as fast as possible. Don't skip the Colorado. I didn't and god it felt good to sail with North Carolina after that piece of junk metal. First screenshot was my first game in NC and second was my first game in NC against Tirpitzes (I have xp flags on as I want that hull upgrade as fast as I can get it) Edited August 30, 2015 by Z3th0r0s Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I cannot personally say anything about the Bismarck, maybe it's a balanced ship, you have more experience with all those ships, I have not even reached tier 8. My gripe is with the Murmansk, I see too few drawbacks compared to all the advantages it gets over the Omaha, on paper that is. I don't have first hand experience with it.

[ST-EU] Admiral_noodle Supertest Coordinator 6,337 posts 4,395 battles Report post #17 Posted August 30, 2015 I'm happy with the ship. Worth the money? Only if you have a lot to spare... But the point is this ship plays like Kongo but better. It can "flex" better than any other BB I've driven. It also means I can abandon the grind for amagi and not grind us BBs at all. So I can start on japanese cruisers after getting to Des Moines. (Eventually!) I think I might like the German tech tree Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit: Also what kind of Captain does not dispatch an Atago that close in 2 minutes?! well, what I can say, probably Tripitz captain still L2P. And you will be surprised how bad is AP ammo on 4 km and when ships going 30+ knots. if you get with BB on 4 km, use HE, not AP second, how many BB have torps ? captain probably forget for this options. And its not first time i got surprise some BB, few times i got Iowa on 3 km behind fjords, and sunk him with torps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And its not first time i got surprise some BB, few times i got Iowa on 3 km behind fjords, and sunk him with torps. I had a different experience. Atago was trying to sneak on my Tirpitz from behind the island to do some Atago things, but found 4 torpedo spread instead and didn't manage to shoot a single shell before going to meet Nemo. BB with torpedoes is nasty. Especially with field of fire Tirpitz torpedoes have. Keeps all kind of critters away from too close range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeneralRushHour Beta Tester 369 posts 1,516 battles Report post #25 Posted August 31, 2015 Guns might be lower caliber but it has no issues hitting citadels on any ship when faced broadside. Two Montanas down so far and the best part is they cant run, cant hide from the superior speed and superior close range combat due to torps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
