This is what happens. Sorry to brag but I am pretty proud of the dmg for a tier 4 BB.

EDIT: the images don't work for some reason so here is an imgur link. http://www.imgur.com/a/uSNwm

.....long story short....174k DMG, high caliber, confederate, dreadnaught.

I'm just curious: How come you got an Arkansas Beta, yet hasn't got a "Beta tester" tag on the forums?

 

Oh, and RNGesus smiled on you that day. My Ark tend to shoot all over the place, no matter how well you aim. Well done nevertheless.

​I played closed Beta, idk why I don't have the tag but who cares......sadly though I only had 3 citadels that match, most of the dmg was simple penetrations.

Most of the time I also see a lot of carriers in mine, but either they let me alone or are abysmal at dropping things. Problem is more you go one flank against bad odds and a few minutes later the other flank got completely rolled over for no reason what so ever. ^^ Happens a lot to me.

174K damage + Dreadnought and you still lost? That sucks. That's like 70% of the enemy health point total at T3/T4!

You didn't even get many credits for it in relation to your achievements.

The Arkansas and Imperator ought to provide a higher reward.

A mediocre round in a Murmansk could have given you that much.

I think the free premium ships do not give that much extra credits.

I do not have the Arkansas, but I had much fun in the Wyoming. They are good ships.

Most impressive, both the total damage and the fact that you in the losing team got more XP then the top XP earner in the winning team :medal:

Wasn't it given out for closed beta ? Before that was the weekend test and the Alpha test and who knows what bugs sailed the seven seas before.

And I want a Shinano-Class Aircraft Carrier!

Was supposedly only available for 10 days because it was OP as hell. Planes faster than a Hakuryu/Midway and the armor of a Yamato.

Well, isn't it better to have less luck with citadel hits and more in overall hits than other way?

Half dozen citadel hits wouldn't help much if all other shells just kept "drawing silhouettes".

You should have bought Gremlin during pre-order time.

In one vs. one battle CV would be only ship below tier 7 which could try hunting it without danger of itself becoming prey fast...

Not for all I guess, I was a CBT player but no tag for me :(

You didn't even get many credits for it in relation to your achievements.

If major part of damage was done to tier III ships that would explain some of it.

Damaging higher tier ship than own ship gives more reward, with decrease of reward in damaging lower tier ship.

And per damage hitpoint reward is bigger for cruisers than BBs and even bigger for destroyers messing results further.

 

 

 

 the fact that you in the losing team got more XP then the top XP earner in the winning team :medal:

Shouldn't that be standard for excellent match (like this) unless enemy team had bigger skill variations?

I had a game like this, with slightly less damage but 7 kills and with 1 carrier per team in the battle...

 

And you know what? It was still a defeat. At one point I had to decide if I was going for the carrier or for the half-health enemy Wyoming, and since I couldn't handle the Wyoming with torpedo planes forcing me to maneuver I decided to kill the carrier, but then I run out of time to finish the job...

It should, and it does, but I wanted to emphasize it so people would know that even if you have a team which just refuses to be carried, you can still get top XP :great:
