tenacious_torps ∞ Players 1,373 posts Report post #9 Posted December 20, 2016 ok, and what about those ramming flags 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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zathras_Grimm Players 1,438 posts Report post #11 Posted December 20, 2016 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. 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). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BOTS] deadly_if_swallowed Players 1,678 posts 13,867 battles Report post #12 Posted December 20, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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

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.
