What will be different than from Nagato? Worse AA? Better secondaries? who knows. In case you missed the pictures 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[PRAVD] Takeda92 Weekend Tester 3,802 posts 8,373 battles Report post #8 Posted December 21, 2016 Only 2 torps per broadside, with terrible arc and weak damage and speed, yeah that's a gimmick if I see one. But, with tier 6, 26 knots speed and guns that are just as good as Bayern's, it should be alright premium. Not the strongest one but it doesn't need to be. Btw, they are saying Nagato will lose her stock hull so will Amagi. Also, next patch is 0.6.0 so I wonder what will the big game-changing feature it will bring.

Comodoro_Allande Players 2,240 posts 8,469 battles Report post #10 Posted December 21, 2016 So, speculation machine: first, never-in-game Kaiser's stock hull became a tier lower premium. Now, same with Nagato and maybe even with Amagi. And stock hull of Kongou also removed. You hear that?? It's the sound of money for WG WG, you are diabolical *insert Simpsons meme here* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love the looks but it is s pain in the butt to drive her stock! Is this anytime soon, Darth? Wait! Amagi loosing her stock hull??? F***ck than I am done with her In tier 7 too. I'm not sure about having 10 410mm guns on tier 7. She's obviously gonna be in her BC form so no AA, no armor, no TDS, and with torps. If she gets the same shells as Amagi, that would be way too strong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VC381 Players 2,928 posts 6,315 battles Report post #16 Posted December 21, 2016 OK, having seen the stats, and even if the torps are just a gimmick, this is awesome. Also, the torps reload faster than the guns... and their range is approx. what your secondary range would be with the standard secondary build, so more power for brawling. And if they do the same to Amagi I'm expecting the same for Fuso (arguably the worst offender for "gameplay comfort" stock). Yamashiro T5, stock Fuso with torps. Damn... I'm gonna end up buying all of these aren't I... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mucker Players 842 posts 8,403 battles Report post #19 Posted December 21, 2016 I see Mutsu as quite a solid T6 Premium BB, but Stock Amagi at T7? Prolly the weakest T7 BB of them all, by quite a bit. I'mean, AA DPS of 8/32/10? CV's will rejoice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you seriously avoiding knife fights on T7 because you'll find Scharnies? Torps are a nice gimmick but that shouldn't stop you. I would be more afraid ppl mistake her for a sniper because of the range. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
