Personally it sounded to me like he would not like Battleship gamestyle in general.

 

Battleships are inaccurate and slow, and they will never turn into fast snipers. He will be very disappointed if he expects massive improvements when going up the line.

The Fuso is IMO one of the best if not the best BB's all things considered in the game, but then I am biased.

You free XPd Kongo? Why? For a "fun" grind there is in the game...

 

One, I already had the ARP one (which at the time really was the only one), and two, I wanted to get to T7 fast (because event), which wouldn't be possible if I had to spend the money buying Kongo and equip her as well.

 

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. 

 

I'd add Nagato to that. She doesn't really have better dispersion than Fuso, so at range you'll just hit less, since Fuso has more guns. And at that range you'll probably just overpen anyway, since that's what Nagato does.

Myogi is the worst ship, of all ships I have played in the game.  And definitely the worst BB of them all.

Personally, even the Kawachi is leagues ahead of that garbage.


 

So to answer the OP, yes.  Everything is better than the Myogi and it definitely gets better. 

So far the best IJN BB I have played where the Kongo and the Nagato (Which I am right now).

Stop giving bad reputation to Izumo, this ship does not deserve it.  I enjoyed many BBs, IJN and USA line, but I stopped at Izumo as my ultimate BB. Once you as captain master aiming with Nagato, then Izumo will become incredible beast ship in your hands, because Izumo is indeed most accurate BB in the game, extremely fast shells, excellent trajectory and gun placement allows all shells to hit enemy in narrow group that is devastating for enemy.

Long ago i gained enough XP for buying Yamato but will not buy it beocuse I am no premium user and already have one tier 10 ship.

Never the less, Izumo provides me best experience as BB player so far, ship makes enough damage to cover its high repair costs.

Response to OP.

Kongo is much better ship, Fuso is fast reloading shot gun, Nagato is sniper rifle and ship that will turn you into real BB captain if you dont give up too early.

Amagi is like heavy cruiser and should be played as such, very mobile ship, makes big and accurate damage and if played as such it is very intense gameplay (fun), but you will struggle with credits because ship does not get enough reward for damage like some other BBs (nothing official just my experience).

Izumo is better then all these previous ships, when i say better i  mean so far it provided me most fun with its game play and i cant imagine day passing by without me playing it.

Kawachi and Myogi are just te beginning BB`s and are slow Kongo and Fuso are much faster and so is the Nagato. Kongo is a real upgrade after having the myogi, and with the Fuso you can even hit more but need an upgrade to extends her range. Then you get the Nagato a nice ship but it has some learning curve and less guns to fire, and weaker armor compared with Fuso and Kongo in their tier. I still think the jap bb`s are a good line of ships i recently stopped playing the japs and started on the us line, but they have slower ships less range but better armor and btw all of the bb`s have a cooldown of like 30 seconds on the main battery if you are smart you will fire them one by one to make the most damage.

Kongo- Awesome, Fuso- great sniper, Nagato- great brawler, Amagi- good firepower (even if you get trolled by rng dispersion at times) with weak armour, haven't got the Izumo or Yamato yet.

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.

The Myogi was quite alright mate. You will like the next ships, the Kongo is good, the Fuso even better and don't get me started on the Nagato or the Amagi. 

 

These ships tho.. You need to work a bit and try nor to get hit. While the American ships are a tad more durable the IJN ones pack a great punch with more range included. 

 

If you dont like to trade armour for agility and distance go for the US ones or wait for za Germins to come out and try them.

Kongo -> Never liked her, other people do though. To answer your question however: certainly an improvement. Two more guns, somewhat reliable AA, and a nice big health pool. Fragile however, so be careful with her.

Fuso -> Derplord supreme

Nagato -> Guns that cuts through almost anything and accuracy to make those shells hit where it counts

Amagi -> Blisteringly fast with respectable AA and lethal cannons of doom

Izumo -> Lethally accurate with a shell grouping that puts cruisers to shame. Really big target though, and can be seen from anywhere.

Yamato -> Didn't like her. Admittedly it was only three games and on the test server but still. Even so, her statistics suggest that she is the most potent ship at tier 10, with the exception of the Haky.
