If you for example sink an enemy battleship with less than 1000 HP, damage control on cooldown and burning in two places, while another enemy nearby still has most of their HP intact, you were absolutely kill stealing. It is not only a kill stealing (I don't mind if someone finishes a target I softened) it is egoism, pure lack of situational awareness and poor target selection. I have seen musashis wasting full salvo potential to finish already dying from DOT targets when full hp enemies were awaiting broadside for the punishment.

Anybody getting pi**ed and whining about killstealing in chat should immediately get sunk by an enemy ship that has only 1 hp left... I think its very situational. In this instance, i really didnt have to grab the kill, but the problem was, the ashigara was infront of the Fiji, so i might have hit him anyway. Other times, you see CVs drop their loadout on a 2k HP burning BB, by the time the torps reach, BB is already dead. I lost a game to that once ~~ Thats selfish and the sole reason is to grab the kill. Also ive seen players deliberately not shooting so they can get the kill -> this can only be described as KSing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here you can WG balance at work that roughly translates to go buy one or go fúck yourself. Cossack in Dynamo is.... I have no problem to division with the best of the best and compete with them about kills. But there simply is no competition against a Cossack... My greatest gaming achievment is already 2 days old. Not that great result by numbers, but with my smoke-teamplay & spotting I enabled @DFens_666 in his Fiji to have a great round. And thats what DDs are all about, so im happy Spoiler On top of that, it was the game that pushed me over this line: 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anybody getting pi**ed and whining about killstealing in chat should immediately get sunk by an enemy ship that has only 1 hp left... I agree that 99.99% of the time whining about kill-stealing is immature and that enemy ships should be sunken no matter who dealt the most damage. But there are situations when trying to get the kill endangers the battle. For example, a ship using damage control, getting flooded soon after, and having less than 10k HP is guaranteed to sink. If that ship is far away, fleeing, most of the guns pointing the wrong direction, and other enemies are much closer, it is utter stupidity to try sinking her. I've seen a mission lost by two cruisers firing at such a ship (despite me warning them that she will sink on her own), while showing full broadside to an enemy heavy cruiser 5-6 km from them, which proceeded to delete both of them in two salvos. While they were happily sniping at the doomed enemy BB at 16km+. Another annoying case was when my team played exceptionally poorly and I was lucky enough to save the almost lost battle, by sinking 4 enemies, dealing enough damage to the rest to get both high caliber and confederate, until only a completely deplaned enemy carrier was left (and me and 2 of my teammates). At the end I had more than double base xp then the second place, several dead teammates congratulated me in chat for saving the battle. I wrote in chat that I hope for the kraken. I set the enemy carrier on fire, and after DC was used, I torped her. 3k HP, sinking. "Let me have kraken pls" in chat. Then, one of my teammates, who spent almost the entire battle behind an island, contributing next to nothing, comes out and kills the carrier. Isn't *that* thing unsportsmanlike? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TEA] Robber_Baron Players 1,322 posts 7,981 battles Report post #9632 Posted December 23, 2018 I was in a div with a guy who was holding fire to get the kill while being in a battleship. That same guy was playing CV later, and while I was burning down a battleship (dmg ctrl on cooldown, no way he would survive that) this guy decided to torp him, while fully aware that guy was dead anyway because voice chat. With other targets still posing a threat. Because "muh Kraken". So yes, killstealing does exist. Although those are rare cases. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah, well, okay... but even if a CV wastes load of torp/bombs it's not kill stealing... just an utterly dumb choice of targets ^^ 16 hours ago, Rosletyne said: I disagree.

If I can see that BB it probably can see me too... and maybe, just maybe, his guns will reload for final salvo just before he burns down... so I rather be safe than sorry and stick some final shells into that BB - when I'm in a BB too, then only from one turret, so I don't waste a salvo, but nonetheless... 6 hours ago, Praevasc said: Isn't *that* thing unsportsmanlike?

Considering how CVs will be played after the rework - and the new peopletatoes that will play them - there will be lots of this in the future... And to write something fitting for the thread's theme: Had a good day considering the win/loss rate today with 62.5% wins, but my stats... my oh my... The game to save the day came - once more - in the Krispy Kreme. After calling out a Kamikaze in the enemy team for "intending to club poor helpless (T5) BaBByeals" I then set course from the middle of the southern side of the Solomon (Domination) map to the C cap, starting to molest poor little BaBBseals as soon as the mountains were low enough to shoot over them, not stopping with it 'til the game ended... Gathered three kills and 62k damage and a win doing it... Damn nasty sealclubber, that I am... but at least I do it in a Krispy Kreme ^^ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Finally, after all this time RNGesus smiles upo.. Hide contents Hide contents Dude, I know exactly what You felt at that moment... I felt exactly the same when this happened to me... 262 battles in the Krispy Kreme later - still only a meager 51.91% winrate - I really LOVE this little trollship. It even carried me to Rank 1 in the first sprint ranked - played her exclusively! And today, I had another trollish battle in it: T6 battle - only a couple T6 BBs/Cruisers/DDs, but two T5 CVs per team - Domination on New Dawn, starting South - and I immediately set course to the C cap, after some friendly banter with an enemy Kamikaze commander (-> "Damn sealclubbing Kamikazes.. always out to club poor, helpless little T6 BaBByseals" which he agreed to). A Spee was the first enemy coming into my range and the rainbow of hot HE love started... the poor sod tried to defend himself, shooting HE at me, but didn't do much damage. I didn't do that much damage either with each hit, but the constant dakka-dakka-fire-dakka-fire-dakka-dakka took it's toll. And with a bit allied help he soon went down and I was able to go after other targets... A while later I managed to club the sealclubber, but only after he had taken his toll by sinking three of my teammates. After that I managed to annoy two more enemy ships, which were sunk by our CVs though, and capped B. Next I went after the last surviving enemy ships - their CVs... The Zuiho send a full load at me, lost some planes, but didn't do too much damage to me. Two CVs sank each other, so it was one enemy CV vs. one CV, an afk DD and me... I managed to spot that Zuiho and got it to burn, but his second plane strike was done a lot better than the first, so my Krispy Kreme went down... As we were ahead by 300+ points and the counter already was at ~900 this wasn't even relevant... and shortly later the battle was won. So.. two sinkers, only 39k damage and 9 planes shot down... not too bad. Believe me, You can learn to love this little trollship... The rainbows of fiery HE love make it utterly lovable!
