Djoller Players 13 posts 2,562 battles Report post #1 Posted August 5, 2016 I hate Myogi, and cant find a single good point about it. My question is, are the rest of the jap BB's just as slow, cumbersome, long reloads, inaccurate and generally a pain in the but? If they are, I will not waste anymore time on that line. Maybe I am just more of a cruiser kind of guy, and all BB's are like Myogi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Martinborgen Players 144 posts 4,554 battles Report post #2 Posted August 5, 2016 Inaccurate, yes kinda - all BBs are. Cumbersome? Myogi is quite quick turning. Slow? KONGO is fast, FUSO is slower. Can't remember how fast the myogi is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ST-EU] Trainspite Supertester, Players, Sailing Hamster 1,920 posts 4,621 battles Report post #3 Posted August 5, 2016 Myogi is excllent if you can play her right. And she is the fastest BB at tier 4, so I don't know where you get slow from... A lot of people don't like Myogi due to her inaccurate nature, having only 6 of the largest guns at tier 4. Kongo is an improvement to 8, though I don't exactly like the Kongo much. But for the most part, Japanese BBs after Myogi are no less slower or poor at turning, but have better gun stats.

Egoleter ∞ Players 4,046 posts Report post #4 Posted August 5, 2016 You will absolutly LOVE the IJN battleships at tier V and up. Their stock builds might sometimes be a bit disappointing, but as soon as you apply the first hull upgrade this will change. Even the ones you might be disappointed in will become great.

[PKTZS] JapLance Weekend Tester 2,567 posts 18,265 battles Report post #5 Posted August 5, 2016 Myogi improves a lot with the last hull. And then the Japanese BBs get better and better. Kongo is great, Fuso is excellent and Nagato is a great ship. But always with the ship fully developed. Don't expect stock hulls to be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

salva_barbus Players 131 posts 8,949 battles Report post #8 Posted August 5, 2016 Thanks for your feedback. I will try to work my way through Myogi :-) Yes, please do. IJN BBs are awesome once fully upgraded. I fell in love with the Kongô a long time ago, and it remains once of my best ships. It's FAST (30kts in a battleship, yeah), has pretty decent armour, and the guns are pretty good, once you accept BB randomness. And the line keeps on getting better. Fuso is an absolute beast, Nagato is an outright God descended upon Tier VII, and Amagi is a Kongô at tier VIII, but with laser railguns of doom. Izumo I haven't tried, because I was too afraid of her and I absolutely desired to get to the Yamato, so I free xp'd her away. Yamato... what can I say, it's reputation is well deserved, although I struggle a bit with the gameplay change that comes at tiers IX and X. Even so, I've had absolutely brutal games in her, and those guns, man. Those guns... So, yeah, the IJN BB line gets quite better after the Myogi. Just remember to angle like crazy and never show any hint of your broadside to anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stormchaser Beta Tester 97 posts 9,037 battles Report post #11 Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) When you reach Kongo you will have an excellent battleship. The sweetspot for IJN BB's for me are tiers 5-6-7 there all badass, amagi is good & t8 but will see t10 izumo is fairly good & only played yamato on test server & ofc its another badass!

Woofbark Players 100 posts 1,820 battles Report post #13 Posted August 5, 2016 We only have two BB lines. The US BB's do better at T4 and T9, the IJN BB's do better at T3,T5,T6,T7,T8 and T10. I don't find BB's fun, the skill cap seems really low. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[IRQ] AnotherDuck [IRQ] Players 2,930 posts 7,510 battles Report post #14 Posted August 5, 2016 Kongo and Fuso are my favourite battleships. Well, ARP Kongou, as I've never actually owned a normal Kongo. Getting past the stock hulls is perhaps the best use of free experience in the game. They can certainly be fun to play (it's a challenge), but don't expect them to live up to the hype at that point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[POI-Z] xCaptainObviousx Weekend Tester 1,244 posts Report post #16 Posted August 5, 2016 My divisionmates always tells me that it should be illegal to have as much fun as I have in the Myogi. I way not always survive the battle but I'll be damned if I'm not gonna go down fighting. Inaccurate at long range? Get closer, I want to hit them with my sword!

(well, more like sledgehammer) That is sort of the thing, the japanese BB up to tier 6 are more for close range combat, as they have the accuracy of a shot gun. People allways see that they got 20 km max range, snipe from that and they complain when they can't hit anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stock is really bad, but then again, all BB are crap in stock configuration, so if you haven't gotten used to stock grinding by tier 9, good luck 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
