"YOU WAT M8?" :facepalm:
Selling a ship that will give you 300k creds per game for few mil creds because you need creds...

I sell every and any Premium ships, trading for Credits which are much needed for me and also i do not need to spend real money to unlock the "free" XP. It was a win-win i guess nevertheless.

 

so you sell ship that give you 250-500k credit per game AND also wil give you gold if you get 2 of the same, so if get for eg 2x Warspite you could buy 60 or 90 days of premium for gold for that ship !?!??!

Ah but now he doesn't need to spend real money to unlock the free XP. Sometimes some things are so stupid they start to make sense.

 

Possibly.

So you got rid of a ship which can generate more credits perpetually to get a once off quick injection of credits? That type of thinking is so backward it beggars belief. You get rid of long term investment potential which can reap far more rewards by giving in to your urge for instant gratification, lol. My friend, you have a LOT to learn in life. By far the most braindead thing I have 'heard' someone say today.

Not to mention all the assistance with the captain training, given that he is clearly only training captains for credits at most..

I have now 800 of those New Years Camos...

 

OMFG! That's nearly 50% the number of total battles you played so far!!! Well: it's getting you to Mighty Mo much quicker!!

 

 

Edit: IMO there's no need to pick on Celephais, people! It's his choice to do whatever he likes with his goods. Though I must say I can't understand the choice as well.

The Mo grind has gone surprisingly fast with the camos. I did convert some free XP with the x35 rate a few weeks ago but that was only with about 6000 dubs which is around 200k. Only got 75k more to hit which should be in a week or so.

I got 10 Ocean Soul camos.... :sceptic:

How come I get only 10 camos and the guys that get New Year get 100? :(

I'd rather have 100 New Year camos to make the grind to Missouri quicker. I'd even prefer 10 New Years instead of 10 Ocean Souls....

Ocean Soul is ugly as sin but that's where its problems stop. It's great for grinding xp and credits.

Do you guys use the NY camos on other ships than the Tirpitz? I only have premium DD's and the Kutuzov, but i worry about the concealment. Or should i just use them on every ship i play (except DD's)?

I use it on the Baltiless. I touroughly loath that ship yet I try to force myself to play it once a day so maybe I'll be able to get to Des Moines 1 day. Not having high hopes after the torture of P, NO and B. Baltimore must be glad I doubled his citadel armor with the paint. I wouldn't even put regular cammo on it cause for me that's a waste of credits.

Didn't someone point out that the NY camos (non-permanent variety) were worse than the permanent +XP camos for getting free XP?

I'll edit in a link if I can find the post with the calculations.

 

EDIT: Turns out it's not actually that bad. But the thread is worth a read if you want to get the most out of your camo.

I use it for everything I've stopped grinding in.

 

Although I wonder if the Tirp camo from the Convoy gives a better overall bonus as it's 50% more base so and 100% free as opposed to a flat 200% free.

Yea, I wouldn't use my NY camos over permanent camos so that rules out all premiums and things like the NCal, Gearing and Yamato where I purchased the perm camo.  And that is before I unlocked the new 2nd perm camo with huge free XP gain for the Tirpitz- now it makes even less sense to put it on there.

 

I use it on some of my keeper ships (Cleveland, Hosho, Montana), I did have it on the Fuso and Leander but got free perm camos for them and then I have it on a couple of my grind ships (Taiho, FdG and Ibuki).

 

Most ships it doesn't make sense to put it on though even though I have a gazillion to use up e.g. Essex/NO have +100% XP to speed up the grind, Fiji only has 13pt captain so wouldn't use it until I get CE, Kiev already has horrible camo and I'm not making it worse... in fact I refuse to put it on any DD.

If you regret selling the Warspite now, email the support and tell them you accidentally sold it. They will replace it but only one time for each account!

Same here, not sure what to use it for. 1963 of the NY2017 camo. I have Missouri and built back to 300k+ free exp. Maybe they will do the same for another ship so I can use it along with my 541 Papa Papa flags. That said I have started putting those on ships with captains that are fully skilled up just to make it look pretty with flags on. Also have 43 reserve slots that have come from containers... Maybe one day we will have a trading system so I can trade them all for something I find useful.
