Hey guys.
 

Blyskawica is once more available in the premium shop but only for 2 days.

 

 

There are two options:


The first is unbundled, ship + port slot only for 19.23

 

The second is bundled with 3,150 Doubloons + 60 consumables for 29.99

I dont understand why WG puts these ships for sale for such a short period and at the end of the month when wallets get quite thinner.

 

I'd be happy to buy it if it was on sale 1 week ago, or in 1 week.

True, they do seem to be pushing rather a lot of premiums through the shop at the moment. A sudden need for money maybe? :trollface:

I'd take mine over a Benson any day of the week. :B

 

With any luck my Wiceadmirał can sail Grom, Piorun and Orkan in the future too, although I wouldn't mind seeing this one day...

Putting Campbeltown aside for a bit...

 

This is a beast of a ship :)

 

Excellent choice for any DD captain

Must.... not.... buy.... it.

 

Seriously WG, why so many premiums this month? Saipan, Tirpitz, Lo Yang, Blyskawica and probably the Campbeltown at some point (fingers crossed). This is too much in one month and people will just miss out. I got the Saipan and Tirpitz this month and that is as much as I can afford to pay at the moment (and to be honest more than I should get in just a month!). Too much of a good thing, are they struggling for money from WoWS or something? Makes me a little uneasy wondering if this is just bare faced greed or desperation.

On the other hand, people have been arguing why they could not buy ship XYZ ... Now WG is putting them in the shop rather frequently and still people complain ;-)

Well, actually couple days is really short time if someone is having other things.

Especially when there's no knowledge beforehand.

Maybe... if you also own Anshan, so you can swap captains

 

But to be honest... like creamgravy said, when im sailling my blyska i dont see a benson or any benson clone as a threat

True, although Lo yang torpedos are much better than blysca. Also the guns aint half bad, but yeah blysca has more Armor.

I am interested to this ship as well, but it is been while I have bought Marblehead, Tirpitz, Atlanta, Lo Yang .... I must cool down with money using now. When this Blyzca will show up again later in time, then i will get it.

For anyone thinking about buying this ship, i wholeheartedly recommend it!

In essence, it is a gunboat much similar to US DDs that has decent torps and can stealth-torp with a workable margin.

The ship truly shines with a 15+ point captain and can easily produce credits of over 300.000+ in good games.

No complaints here, just commenting on the frequency. :honoring:

I was disappointed that I missed this last time around so I was pleased to see it up for sale again this weekend. I bought it this morning and after a couple of poor games (my own fault really) I really like it. It's a good all rounder. Similar to the Gremy really in that it had good guns and a decent set of torps but was not stealthy.

 

All in all a good DD..

Since its surface detection range is 7.5km and you can shoot out to 12km can you actually fire while being undetected?

Unless something changed to the firing detectability debuff, yes it can.

 

7.5km base detectability + 3.6km debuff = 11.1km

Max range without AFT perk is 12km, so you've got 900m of buffer zone for invisifiring.

Yes at ranges beyond ~11.1km. With CE expert at ranges beyond ~10km
