Tako finally hitting the EU server

[VeteranGamer84]

Well, Takao mission is a bit dissapointing to be honest. I currently have 5 t8 ships and 2 t10 ships. That means I have grand total of 2 ships that I can use to do the mission. And winning 50 games isn't all that thrilling either.

OTOH I don't know whats all the fuss about other servers having t6+ while EU gets t9+. Its only some 300k xp/ 15 million creds difference, you can easily grind that in 2-3 days to get ready for missions

 

It isn't dissapointing for me at all as I really wanted to play the Atago and for me this is a good gift.

The Takao will blend really well the blue sea making her semi invisible.

50 wins in two month window shouldn't be that hard.

 

On other hand, I've finished Kongo mission already and it seems if you own the ship, you will nothing - no 6lvl captain, so credits for ship, no port slot or crew bunks.

 

While you don't get credits, port slot, captain bunk and captain herself arrives

[Shirakami_Kon]

Well, at least I'll get Kongo without the requirements of the first crap mission. But well, I guess they had to compensate for that with the other ships missions. There are some things that I like of the new missions but others that... well, I'll better shut my mouth... But well, whatever.

 

At least it's really nice that everyone gets a chance to get the ships that may have missed (like Kongo for me, which I refused to bother doing the original mission even if it's my favourite ARP ship).

 

And I know the missions are viable to do in one month, but some of them... 500 torp hits for Nachi? Really? Are you [edited] serious? And I think it was with a tier 8 or higher too, for a tier 7. Myoko I think it's 500 secondary hits, that just takes a Bismarck or a Yamato, but those requirements are weird anyways.

 

I mean... NA server can get Takao with tier 6 ships, just grinding tons and tons of XP. Everyone that reads the forums a bit knows by now that yes, every server gets different requirements for the same challenges/events based on different criterias technically based on the performance of players of each different server. And that's what makes that we get those kind of requirements instead of a simple massive XP grind that lets you just play as you always would like in NA, you have to do all that random [edited] with higher tier ships that the ones you'll get if it's not a Kongo class now.

 

I really have a question that I'd like to get answered, and a serious answer, since it's a important question that I think I'm not the only one interested in why things are like this, to any WG dev or anyone from WG that read this and can answer: We know that each server follows different criteria for the requirements for the same kind of challenges/events. What makes EU server have always this kind of random absurd requirements instead of just simple XP like other servers? Are we that pro compared with the rest of the world? (because I can't find anything that may prove that while I play the game). And what's the logic in that in EU you need a tier 9 ship to get a tier 8 Takao but NA can get Takao with a tier 6 ship? What's the reason behind that?

[Zouron]

I find it okay that you can't earn the ship in a lowe tier, but I too feel it is a bit much to demand a higher tier to get it. It does mean for me I probably wouldn't get it, I don't like high tier play so I never finished pushing any ship past 8, a shame I really wanted takao from a collector perspective and as a fan of the manga.

[shamelesscreature]

Duplicate ships: you get rewarded with the credit value instead, not sure about the port slot, though. If I remember correctly, you get it, too.

Captains: Well..., you probably get a(nother) duplicate captain, but at least this time there is also a crew reserve slot for every captain you get.

 

I just finished the ARP Kongo mission for the second time. No credits, but another port slot + reserve slot + captain clone. Guess that makes sense since you cannot sell ARP ships to begin with.

Did you also look into the result screen of the battle you did to finish this mission? Was there `no hint in the economy window about solving the mission?

Yes, that's true for me too. It's not actually a rant that you can't get a tier 8 ship with a lower tier one so you can get instantly in battles in high tiers when you still don't even know how to play properly, which happens already with premium ships and we're already tired of that.

 

But... what pisses me off it's that some servers can do that, while others don't. Technically because it's seems that WG thinks that here in EU we're that badass that we can afford this missions (and yes, we can do that, totally). But for me comparing the missions or EU and the ones for NA for example the differences makes me think that the treatment here is unfair. Even if we can do the missions and aparently NA is a bunch of n**bs that can only grasp baby focused versions of the missions we get here for WG.

[JapLance]

 

Do i sense a little bit arrogance here? 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.

 

I was going to give you an explanation for the obvious, but since you seem to have not even a clue, I won't bother.

 

My tier 6 are fine. And my sevens... and my eights.

 

By the way, 100k in 30 days is a piece of cake.

[Agantas]

Should have seen that BS coming.

if someone knows some kind of black magic to do to get 15mil+ in like a day so I can buy Roon without selling every ship I have. Right now I have 1mill 400k yey not.

Otherwise if is one giant [edited]you to the community from EU office, because they limit who can get the mission done without no rhyme or reason beyond [edited]you that's why.

So from me all they can get is the same one giant middle finger. Thx WG EU for convincing me that spending money on Warspite I was planing on is a wrong thing to do and I be better off spend it on something like a few books for example.

 

Black magic is called the Halloween event. 200k credits per game with 2 kills and 100k+ damage.

nono, don't get me wrong, I was waiting for that ship for a long time. But playing only t10 ships to get her, and winning 50 games in them will be a bit of a drag... (considering its still a t8 ship).

Although, the inability to put detectability camo on her could hurt a bit tbh (good concealment is one of Atagos strengths)

I have a grand total of two ships with which to complete that requirement. So your statement is not very honest.

Had it been tier VI+ like the other regions or even tier VIII+ which would have been consistent with every other EU ARP event so far.

It says that I completed the mission on the 1st page of the result.

Nothing on the 4th page, and nothing in the notifications in port either.

The %3 decrease of detectability camo for a cruiser isn't a big deal.

IIRC missions round up results, so it may show up 9999/10000 as complete

[Humorpalanta]

Takao minimum T9. EU server:

This. I had to do an extra battle before any notification about the Kongo appeared (other than in the battle result screen).

It appears that you get the (duplicate) captain plus the reserve slot AND the port slot, but no credits for the ship itself, which is a bit of a shame.

[Syrchalis]

 

AND the port slot

 

So if you have the ships already you get free port slots? That's awesome.

[shamelesscreature]

Oh, I got the mission reward notification on the left side of the port interface after the battle. But no credits instead of the ship I already had, which was the point I was trying to make and which you and Panocek confirmed. 

 

 

So if you have the ships already you get free port slots? That's awesome.

 

Yes, I got one for the Kongo mission (had 4, now 5 free port slots). Haven't completed any of the other missions yet. 

[Syrchalis]

I have lots of free port slots from last port slot sale, but I've not started KM BBs or RN CAs, so that's why I'm not using any. Plus at some point RN CVs will come and I'm going to buy like 10 Ark Royals (not really, can't even).

 

So yay for free port slots.

[NyronGT]

I find it hilarious that Takao's mission are from t9. As not many players own so high-tiered vessels, the ship will be more of a novelty gained by the server's minory.  Wasn't the whole ARP deal about promotion?

I think there is enough people that will enjoy it being somewhat exclusive.

 

Not that I will; just saying.

[giannisww]

that 200 torps mission thow

 

[159Hunter]

All you haters about the tier IX: it's a free tier VIII ship, doesn't mean they have to give them for free. Just make a little effort and play some higher tiers as well.

If that's too much for you guys, yeah then you proly don't deserve the free tier VIII ship

People will have to stop seal clubbing low tiers then to get there Neon lite Pimped ship then...

 

Crazy the amount of players who have over 2k battles and there max tier in 5 Minekazi ;)
