OMG_Noob Alpha Tester 53 posts 4,465 battles Report post #1 Posted December 30, 2015 Making money is one of the big challenge in this game as you know Captains. I would like to buy a premium ship which can make money!!! I don't have any idea which t8 premium to buy;Tripitz, Atago or Kutuzov? Or the t7 Atlanta? Has anyone tested Kutuzov? what about those torpedoes/artilleries comparing with Atago?can any experienced captain help me with this? Happy New Year 2016!

Et_Lanatus_baro Players 465 posts 6,504 battles Report post #3 Posted December 30, 2015 best money maker is Murmansk, but if you want a T8 I would go for the Atago or Tirpitz, the Kutuzov is a poor mans mogami with 155's and for the price they asking simply not worth it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigDov Beta Tester 24 posts 920 battles Report post #4 Posted December 30, 2015 best bang for buck is the Murmansk hands down, may not make the high credit games of the t8 Atatgo/ MK or Tirpitz but its costs much much less to repair and rearm. As above stay away from the atlanta, its a cursed ship, its strength of its fast firing guns is also its weakness with them having a high arc and extremely slow shell velocity which is more frustrating than fun.

Seska1973 Beta Tester 53 posts Report post #5 Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) Well, if you get into much Tier 9 - 10 battles with Atago, you get a feeling their Armor is from Paper. Mostly Critical Hits, even Torpedos do 2x Heavy Damage. Play with the knowledge that Atago can get taken out early of the game just with 1 Shell Hit from Tier 9 - 10 BBs But yes. If you "Not proven in this battle!" to often even Premium ships with Premium Accounts get negative Credits, so avoid playing 1 Hit Wonder Edited December 30, 2015 by Seska1973 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

44smok Players 4,367 posts 16,858 battles Report post #7 Posted December 30, 2015 Tirpitz is a lot better Money maker than mummy. Like 60k per game after tax or 160k before tax. Still Derp is expensive and mummy provides better value for money. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have Murmansk, So i say with it and I am gonna spend money on premium time instead of buying t8 that's almost definitely going to make you a lot more money, yes. Especially it will help a lot when you're playing your "normal" ships too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D7v Players 585 posts 13,149 battles Report post #10 Posted December 30, 2015 Murmansk is good for credit but gets boring seal clubbing. I guess they nerfed it somehow it doesnt earn credit as good as before. Actually with any tier 5-6 or 7 ship you can earn good credit without prem ship. If you are already experienced tirpitz though would be the best money maker as tier 8 premium battleship. You may often get 1 shotted with cruisers at tier 8 which is pretty annoying. I think I made most of my money with new mexico. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[B-T] ArcheonSRF Players 92 posts 4,805 battles Report post #12 Posted December 30, 2015 tirpitz is good, but only if you are good, otherwise you are going to get almost nothing out of it. Murmansk is consistent and easier to play at its tier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Panocek Players 13,176 posts 13,617 battles Report post #15 Posted December 30, 2015 Best bang for your buck - Murmansk. Best bang for fun premium - Błyskawica, not available tho. Tirpitz seems to be alright, so is Atago, although high tier cruisers aren't exactly easy or fun to play. Stay away from Atlanta. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Atago is both fun and "easy" to play. Just play a supportive role, and you'll be fine. I make a couple of k each battle in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Murmansk is consistent and easier to play at its tier. honestly, you'd have to be really bad to make no money off the Torpitz, with its reduced repair bill and what feels like a x2 credit gain multiplier... but yes Murmansk is easier because of much less scary (both ship and skill wise) opposition, and it costs a fraction to boot.

No idea how much Derpitz costs to repair, but Błyskawica costs like 35k, add 5-8k for ammo. So she is almost obscene cheap for maintenance and for a tier 7.

[K2NGS] xblade877 Players 45 posts 8,355 battles Report post #19 Posted December 30, 2015 Well i would chose the Tirpitz (i have it) and i make a ton of money with it about 450-500 K every match Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[OM] ghostbuster_ Players 4,996 posts 21,881 battles Report post #20 Posted December 30, 2015 i would say tirpitz. do 100k damage and get 500k credits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WG will probably sell that around April. Guns and torpedoes both good for the tier. Cracking little moneymaker at the same better balanced Tier V and you'll be able to stick your best Russian commander in it.

44smok Players 4,367 posts 16,858 battles Report post #22 Posted December 30, 2015 It's all about balance between payout and costs. Lower cost doesn't have to mean better moneymaker. My averages are as following (I play all three ships regularly with similar WR but no over the top performance): Derp payout 380k max cost 105k premium repair and heal 45k net gain 230k per battle Mummy payout 220k max cost 30k premium repair 22k net gain 170k Blyskawica payout 220k max cost 35k premium repair 22k net gain 160k Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

44smok Players 4,367 posts 16,858 battles Report post #25 Posted December 30, 2015 Which is less than half of what derp makes. With avg real cost at 75k and without premium consumables cost Derp makes 300+ per game. All depends how you count net gain. Yet perhaps only well played Atago may come close to that.
