I still hold hope that they can get the Alaska in as well it has not been changed that drastically to warrant another extensive round of testing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or at least it seems more rewarding to farm damage as it is less risky that way, correct? I'm pretty sure It literally isnt worth it for dds in terms of XP and credits to spot and scout. Any normally played dd do tend to spot while performing whatever primary tast it is up to (except when it sits in smoke+dakka some big fat stupid BB it just torped) However alot of dds will play incredibly passively. Both things are pretty sad. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

creamgravy Players 2,780 posts 17,292 battles Report post #11733 Posted October 6, 2018 Terrible is more like DoY. Horrid gimmick idea that's poorly implemented for a famous ship that could've been really popular. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[T-N-T] Toivia Players 4,019 posts 23,935 battles Report post #11735 Posted October 6, 2018 Well Flamu also seems to do alright with Le Terrible. Not great (definitely not great), but it can work at killing DDs, setting larger ships on fire. It just kinda dies... Daring on the other hand seems freaking OP still.

Sure, why not... Or maybe my message was twofold with one part being an albeit badly handled pun on the name of the DD in relation to WGs balancing efforts. And the other part being baffled why they release a DD that has no silver line prematurely in a lackluster state, when there is no need to do so, while at the same time not releasing a T9 cruiser, which a) most likely more people are eager to get their hands on compared to le terrible (regardless of the balancing aspect ) and b) is according to a lot of CCs in pretty decent shape balance wise. I just was too lazy to type such a long but less ambiguous post on my crappy phone while commuting home after work... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[T-N-T] Toivia Players 4,019 posts 23,935 battles Report post #11740 Posted October 6, 2018 Well specifically because Alaska is so anticipated, it will come latest. It is unlikely people will be interested in other ships if Alaska is released first and they al get it. Now on the other hand if Alaska is held out in front of us as a carrot, coming at an undisclosed time, at least some of us will be likely to buy some other ship in the meantime, say the Jean Bart (that is clearly less known, some "not-so-bright people" even consider it a paper ship).

My guess so far would be the Bourgogne for steel (alas), JB for coal and Alaska for fxp. I would've wanted Bourgogne for coal at least, as I don't have much interest in Salem and would like a tier 10 premium ship I hope they make the Alaska a strong ship that is fun to play. And for fxp, of course I most likely won't waste coal on it since my amount of coal is more limited and I already have Missouri so no real need for USA captain trainer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alaska might not penetratie as hard but its shells behave much better. Also while they increased the hp of above water modules a bit, it still shouldn't prevent that you can sit perfectly broadside and still not get citpenned. This should still be doable, whereas Kronshtadt basically just blows up in this situation. Also, funnily enough, I'm not even all up in arms about this, because lack of reachable citadel is basically already a standard for BBs and vs cruisers Alaska just gets wrecked by the massive dpm if it doesn't watch out.
