Its driving me crazy if the shown dmg doesn't fit the ribbons and vice versa. If module hits are also counted why not adding a fifth ribbon showing modul penetration (and therefore no dmg because a module sucked it up). At least make the ribbons fit the dmg. Getting 5 penetrations shown put only dmg worth 2 overpens is making me rage quite hard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MJPIA Players 1 post Report post #28 Posted August 16, 2016 Congratulations on nerfing the Ishizuchi. Because clearly its AP is amazing and needs to be nerfed right? Well with the AP nerfs to the Ishizuchi, Atago and then a sledgehammer to the Tachibana's AP you're gonna start nerfing other premium ships now? You can change captain skills and apply indirect nerfs to ships because captains are not part of the ship so you can change those all you like but I will not stand by while 3 premium ships get their AP nerfed. The Zucchini's AP is terrible as it is against any other BB, and now somehow WG has found a way to make it worse. Meanwhile the Nikolai's AP gets a small buff. Well done.

[ST-EU] Admiral_noodle Supertest Coordinator 6,337 posts 4,395 battles Report post #29 Posted August 16, 2016 Just checking in to say I noticed no significant gameplay changes to BBs or Cruisers on PT. Shell normalisation changes were not noticeable in the ships I tested. Also people don't understand normalisation isn't always a BUFF if its high for big guns. Since they simply change the apparent thickness of armour faced by a shell, a high caliber shell is more likely to pen thin armour with a lower normalisation. Plus the changed numbers are small. I don't see this as a significant buff or nerf to AP. Its too situational. And Tachibana... you don't think the normalisation value was 68 degrees do you? That's a typo. 68 degrees of normalisation would be ridiculous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
