Hi all,


Am I reading patch notes for WoWs 0.5.15 right - the "Kamikaze R" is not affected by upcoming IJN DD changes?

Why should Kamikaze-class premiums be affected in the first place?

 

Edit:

Nitpicking explanation why Kamikaze are not affected: the IJN-DD Tree is changing, and the Kamikaze-Class are not part of the IJN-DD Tree

Wrong

Kamikaze-class is not Minekaze-class

They are similar, but different

 

(they share as much similarities as Kagero to Yûgumo)

Even if they were nerfed along the tech-tree ships, 15+ point captains make them OP anyway. So why bother changing them? ;)

In fact the Kamikaze class shares more similarities with the Mutsuki class than the Minekaze class. Such as placement of torps and guns, and the shape of the bow and bridge.

Like these: Minekaze-class and Kamikaze-class ?

 

Seriously, look up those 1 year old posts (Fujin was introduced) where numerous people pointed out the class differences and enjoy how they slapped them into each other faces...

 

 

As a side note: after I managed to finally get a captain with dedicated destroyer skills to 15 points, I should start using him on my Fujin. I haven't had the chance to enjoy this setup :trollface:

Both options of dealing with the premium ships would have been met with a post of some kind;

 

Option 1; they change the Premiums along with the tech-line - Complaints about changing premium ships, not being what they payed for, demanding refunds, threatening to leave the game etc

Option 2; leave them as they are - Complaints over P2W, premiums not balanced with the tech-line (works both ways, this time it's a premium being "better")

 

Either way, they're gonna get some negative feedback from it, but Option 2 is the lesser evil of the two imo.

The reason people might be a bit suspicious about this is that in the patch notes it was specifically mentioned that Kami/Fujin guns won't be affected, but the change to torps was simply referred to as nerfs to Type 92 - which is the model used by Iso-, Mine- and Kamikaze as well as Fujin.

WG does not nerf the Premium ships, which I agree with.

Kamikaze R is a great free premium ship that will be even more unique after IJN DD line changes.
