Anyone feel the same like me, that indianapolis armor is more squishy like the Atlanta? But with the difference, indi shoots one time in 15 secs!

Every time a BB shoots me broadside i got instant killed!

Thjeres a Problem with Indianapolis Armor...!

The odd Indianapolises I shot at in my cruisers and BBs were not any more squishy than other cruisers. Unless they showed their broadside, in which case everything is squishy anyhow.

Indy's armour, I feel, is just the right size to prevent citadel overpens but to allow citadel hits by other battleships, so... yeah. That can and will happen. Just don't show your broadside mate~

I don't own the Indianapolis. But when I encounter 1 all I have to do is look at it funny and get at least 3 citadels...

unbelievable, all answers here are all other as helpful or chosen theme.

You guys just wait as "all knowing"  and the only you can pretty good is to blame someone!

 

 "I agree, there is a problem, but it has nothing to do with the Indianapolis or its armour. "

so you mean its me, ok we will see.

 

"The odd Indianapolises I shot at in my cruisers and BBs were not any more squishy than other cruisers. Unless they showed their broadside, in which case everything is squishy anyhow. "

i accept it generally but this is the reason i come to the Forum cause i feel it more then normal!

 

"Indy's armour, I feel, is just the right size to prevent citadel overpens but to allow citadel hits by other battleships, so... yeah. That can and will happen. Just don't show your broadside mate~ "

 

it will come the time you must turn or are you guys never play broadside your ships?`*a bit confused*

one salvo from a BB and it dosent matter from which BB im insta killed

 

"I don't own the Indianapolis. But when I encounter 1 all I have to do is look at it funny and get at least 3 citadels... "

Spellfire, sarcasm and ironie was never my theme so take your comments  for you and please, give your suggestions (if you have some good) to your low Tier newbies you play with them because they easier to kill, so dont talk to a addult man

Mate, literally every cruiser in game is like that. Time your turns. When you see someone shooting at you, don't just wait for the shells to hit. Brake hard and turn to one side, try to dodge the shells.

So they have the same amount of 'squishyness'? 

The indianapolis is as squishy as the atlanta?

@OP if you had taken the time to watch the video put out by WG and maybe some of the streamers you would know that the Indy is a washington treaty cruiser.......in other words........its nothing more than a premium pepsicola.........if did do that you would have avoided the embarrassment of your whine post.

Yes it's one salvo from any BB to any cruiser showing it's broadside, as long as the RNG gives you citadels. Even BBs can't take that. No need to wonder why you are being laughed at OP.

​I believe the operative word in your post is 'broadside'. A BB can kill just about any cruiser in one salvo that shows it it's broadside.

"Bears exercise bodily functions in wooded areas"

 

Add a few more, I don't think the OP will get it.

For all that have not understand my point, regarding the Armor stats and the Gameplay compared with other Cruisers, it is not normal what damage that Ship takes from BBs Shells even if the Shells plunging in the Water,

 

Well, you see, anon, in our world (and in this game) you have to apply some force to stop an object, especially if that object travels at Mach 2 and weights over a ton. When said object hits water, it KEEPS MOVING FORWARD, though it loses speed pretty fast. but it still can pierce armor, and because:

1) your ship has most of it's citadel under water,

2) Under water armor is very thin

you can get citadeled by shell that hit water.

P.S. Welcome to T7 US cruisers, where your only armor is WASD and RNGesus.
