BruceForce Players 294 posts 5,673 battles Report post #1 Posted December 1, 2016 I got a Scharnhorst a few days ago. What a terrible ship. Can I get my doubloons back? I know that when you buy via the premium shop you can return it, but here? Also, if it works, will WG subtract the free xp and credits earned with that ship? Thanks.

KptStrzyga Beta Tester 4,868 posts 5,014 battles Report post #2 Posted December 1, 2016 You can get back your doubloons, but not if you played with your ship. If you played even one game with it you got what you payed for and there is no way to get any kind of refund. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[AYM-W] Ian_MacAllan Players 46 posts 3,613 battles Report post #3 Posted December 1, 2016 Scharnhorst is a terrible ship? Seriously?? I think it is a fantastic ship and possibly the best crew trainer in the game: you can train CA, BB and soon DD captains in it (even 'fresh' ones) and perform well, independent of the skills the captain already has ... 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[B_U_M] Beach_bum Players 45 posts 31,434 battles Report post #4 Posted December 1, 2016 Some ships just don't suit ones playing style without relearning, so soldier on and find the ships strong point and learn to use them. I bought the little Yubari CL tier 4 two days ago and at first it was dreadful getting one shot killed but now it's just a fantastic ship and a real eye opener of what a CL can do (and not do). I killed 2 battleships and two cruisers last night and shot down 11 aircraft in one battle, so don't give up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The problem with the Scharnhorst that many people have I think is the 283mm guns that you need to get used to. You need to play it as a heavy as [edited]cruiser basically, since the guns don't have the same punch as for example as the Tirpitz.I think its one of the better premiums. It has its own style and flavor and you can get very good results in it once you get used to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HatsuzukiKaiNi Beta Tester 215 posts 6,656 battles Report post #12 Posted December 1, 2016 If you've used it it's unlikely they would refund it, it's still worth a try but doon't get your hopes up. Best thing I can suggest is to play her some more, she's really rather good, you might find yourself enjoying it once you learn how she handles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not a terrible ship, but a terrible captain. Scharnhorst is one of the best premiums out there. In fact, it's the ship with my highest average damage.

[PRAEG] Praetorias Beta Tester 202 posts 16,109 battles Report post #17 Posted December 1, 2016 Terrible, are you kidding, its brilliant. Better than the Tirpitz for pure enjoyment. Its a great agile ship, for close to mid range, great set for secondaries as has greater secondary range than tirpitz. Is one of the best ships in the shop.

In fact, it's the ship with my highest average damage. While I can't understand why he says it's a terrible ship to the point of demanding a refund, he's definitely not a bad captain according to his stats (sorry, it's the first thing I do when someone claims things like this).

Ferry_25 Players 4,392 posts 12,107 battles Report post #19 Posted December 1, 2016 Afraid you won't get refund. But my advice is not to give up after a few rounds. The consensus is to play Scharnhorst as a "BB-cruiser" hybrid. I am still a bit struggling to find that optimal balance in it: either I play it too "tanky" and get wrecked by the "real" BB's or I find myself a bit too far from the frontline so I'm not that usefull. But I feel it's a very good ship. Practise is King!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wait ??? 6 battles and a kraken and its terrible Play that beast as a heavy cruiser angling 15/10 degrees depent on the enemy ship your facing use the plunging fire hits to citadel battleships even the Gneisen (i do this in the first 6-7 min from start) when there less enemies left then you use it as a brawler and you will see every ship with no torps will run away..... HE are great to set fires, AP on broadside ships.... Also i have a small feeling you play it the same as the Tirpitz plz don't do that GL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[THREE] mitchman1411 Players 7 posts 14,332 battles Report post #22 Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) Wait what? Scharnhorst is a brilliant ship, but don't expect big citadels on other battleships, you need to move the aim up a bit.

[-CHL-] Fizzy_Odin Beta Tester 545 posts 4,334 battles Report post #23 Posted December 1, 2016 You should try Gneisenau first and than if you like handling than you should buy Scharnhorst,, i adore Gneisenau and iam idiot because i didnt buy it on -30% On the other hand i bought Kutuzov - its good ship but main problem is that from 8/10 games i get in T10 ( and that is 5-6 T10 ship ) - and there i could do nothing with it and i hate it because of it I did bought it for ranked but i didnt think it would give me T10 battles, on WG wiki it say T10 ships play vs T9 and T10 only Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
