With the addition of containers I'm stockpiling lot's useless signal flags.

Isn't it about time we had the option of junking them for a few creds?

The plans for 2017 mentioned depot, so then it might be possible t odo so next year. But since you can't buy them from silver, then I don't know if you will be able to sell them.

No flag is useless if you play the right ships.

Essential for low tier RN cruisers. Use single launch torps to keep BB maneuvering frantically, sink per ramming.

 

Btw, I'm at ~1300 speed flags. They seem to be more or less the default setting when I get a super-container. Which is nice.

Ramming flags on a scharnhorst or Gneisenau are alright.  Mostly because you have to close to 6km to torp so you get instances when people try to ram you instead. They get a nasty surprise when they sink and you dont

I understand where the OP is coming from as I am a DD only player so have many consumables that I will not use.

 

However, my lack of wanting to play other classes should not reflect on what is an excellent gaming attribute - FREE containers! This is a great gesture from WG. :medal:

 

I wish there was a 'SOS chest' that I could contribute my unused flags and consumables to. The SOS box could be accessed by those with a 45% WR or less only (don't want good players getting better! lol). :honoring:

I got Witherer and Liquidator flags from supercontainers as well, 250 each. I just randomly fly the Witherer flag on every ship that is somewhat HE related, and the Liquidator flags on CVs. Aside from Die Hard, these were the most worthless flags I could get. Sod the TYL containers, flags&camo is much more rewarding thanks to the amount of free xp in them.

I stacked fire and floodings flags in Ranked on my Atago.

 

I'm sure it helped me get that slight edge I needed to make it up there. 

 

The fire stack along with Demo Expert is quite significant.

I have so many rear gunner flags I think the game is telling me to play CV. Maybe I just will then!

 

Just slap it on a full AA Lexington or Iowa for even more dakka :)

These flags are from useless.

 

The 'flooding-flag' I use on CVs.

The 'fire-flags' I use on DDs and CA/CLs.

 

Those 2% extra fire chance are especially useful on CA/CLs with a low basic fire chance (e.g. Yorck, New Orleans ...).

Or increase your Mogami's / Takao's fire chance to 22% :trollface:

mount juliet charlie and ALL THE FIRE AND FLOODING flags on the new german dds... or german cruisers.

 

Simples :)

 

(though you will detonate sometimes I think, its very effective at countering the generally meh HE without having DE)

 

OR mount them all on IJN CAs if you are really evil.
