[BUSHI] Odo_Toothless Players 5,402 posts 24,784 battles Report post #27 Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) Explain how? You can't train IJN Captains, you don't earn more credits, more exp or have camo bonus. If you are complaining about not having enough neon lights on your Atago then you are right. meeh! For some of us it means a little. I am swimming in credits, faster EXP, captain training ? - why I have to hurry and anyway we have flags, extra camos. So from this point of view only camo -3%, -4% difference is really worth something. A very minor difference in fact. So of course many will be very happy to have something for free - it's normal, others would think twice spending real money (action and rection). Imagine you bought Mercedes for trillion of bucks, but your neighbours could get it for free but .... without Mercedes sign - exactly the same new car. Would you buy in future any Mercedes cars ? It's not my business of course, but nobody will convince me that Mercedes sign is worth the whole car ;-) Edited November 1, 2016 by Odo_Toothless 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you bought the atago to get a gameplay advantage.. then: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Otherwise this changes nothing and the atago is still a great credit earner and captain (re)trainer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Egoleter ∞ Players 4,046 posts Report post #42 Posted November 1, 2016 I'm refusing to play tier IX or X. Not my type of gameplay. The previous ARP missions were at least equal tier, but now all mission are with a higher tier then the ship you can earn. While on other servers you could alsways earn them with lower tiers. This is BS of the finest art. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Egoleter ∞ Players 4,046 posts Report post #46 Posted November 1, 2016 I guess no Takao for me then. Unless Wargaming allows me to bot in an unskilled Kagero. I refuse to play high tier matches and I see no reason why the requirement bar is constantly raised for the EU. You remember the first ARP mission on EU? Tier IV and V for tier V and VII ships. After that it was equal tier only while other servers remained on that low requirement level. Now we are even above the tier of the ship we are supposed to play. Tier VI for US and RU, tier 9 for us. That is even worse then what I expected. I'm not wargaming EUs willfull masochist puppet. I'll not play along. Yeah it is great that we finally got the missions and it is even a good thing that we can earn a few of the past event ships as well. But even for some of them the requirement was once again raised. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You make it sound like Tier 6 would be so much better for this mission. In fact, it is a lot worse, especially if you consider the whole month less time to grind the mission. As tier 6 you are uptiered all the time (you'd know this if you follow the forum and the reports about the broken MM for tier 5 and 6), this means you lose a lot more and you get way less XP, not to mention the frustration from being uptiered 85%+ of the time. Try to grind 100,000 base xp in a tier 6 within 30 days, then report back how it was for you. I'm pretty sure it's easier to win 50 games in a Tier 9/10 than grinding 100,000 base XP in a tier 6.
