gr0pah Players 1,168 posts 9,822 battles Report post #1326 Posted February 21, 2016 Got some awesome mentoring yesterday from adeq (thanks!) and tried out Strike Lex. Over 11 games I averaged 93k dmg (server avg. 47k) and 2 ship kills per game (avg. 0.72) and only got a 45% WR (avg. 49%) to show for it. I think the lost games were basically all Domination mode and my DDs just vaporized. One particular game a Gearing, Khabarovsk and Kagero lost to Hatsu (fail div), Fubuki and Benson. I was becoming quickly fed up but decided for a last game. I'm happy I did Broke the 200k dmg barrier (3 floodings, zero flooding damage..) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair, those stats are probably older than 0.5.3 and from the grand old days when Lexington usually ran up with 2/1/1 setups Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gr0pah Players 1,168 posts 9,822 battles Report post #1329 Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) To be fair, those stats are probably older than 0.5.3 and from the grand old days when Lexington usually ran up with 2/1/1 setups Well, of course they are My point is that I played, IMHO, pretty nice - 100k damage is 100k damage - and my WR was quite crappy. And as I'm hankering to get rid of the Lex, the "lost" XP felt sore. Short version: Watching Gearings and Khabs lose to T8 DDs resulted in gnashing of teeth.

[WJDE] VeryRisky Alpha Tester 152 posts 962 battles Report post #1330 Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) Albany is much improved after the patch and it's pretty useful as where else can you safely retrain your US CV captain? 1346 base, probably ideal MM as it was a tier 2 7v7 battle. Still I probably could have done a lot more but please with my first High Calibre Edited February 22, 2016 by VeryRisky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pajosaurus Players 472 posts 3,545 battles Report post #1334 Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) I had a great game in Clemson: 5 kills and still a loss. What made this game especially memorable is that 2 minutes into the match on Straits I found myself in solo battle against a 3 ship DD division in the middle around B cap and I managed to sink all three of them in under a minute. Man, that was a great match; I was extra salty when we lost. Edited February 23, 2016 by Pajosaurus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wongman66 Beta Tester 191 posts Report post #1335 Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Ulitamtely a loss but one of those games that leaves you shaking with the "rush" My Faragut and div mate in Cleveland started for 1/2 side alone of 2 Brothers then 7 of their ships were spotted so became engaged in a tail chase as we sensibly ran and tried to defend cap. As usual the other flank with superior numbers manages to die as well. Eventually down to our CV and me. Reds decide to hunt down CV and continue to chase me as I went to hunt down thier Minnie and dispatched him quickly but lots of fire coming from behind then as I come up to one of the small islands a New York is lying in ambush at 2km somehow he either misses me completey and he eats 6 torps at point blank range. And just behind their near full health Gnevy pops up and I engage in a made dash to get the last few hits before I die. Surprisingly I am still alive so going to ram him for last roll of the dice and I miss him by a gnats todger but my turn has brought me right alongside and I detonate him then I am capped out. A manic 3 minutes at the end and though my WR is not doing great in the Faragut, I am finding I am generally having good & fun matches.

EsaTuunanen Beta Tester 3,552 posts 8,863 battles Report post #1340 Posted February 26, 2016 New personal damage record at tier5, its a shame my team was a complete turd. You call that team bad? At least that New York did something more than some random hits. (my second highest damage match) Strongest ship of the match doing nothing good: Enemy Gnevny with its suicide range torps got ridiculous two Devastating Strikes! I mean shouldn't even the stupidest BB player start turning around when cruiser ahead of it gets torped from close range? Another useless strongest ship of the match: 2/3rd of the team competing in suiciding making totally sucktastic match because of no space to work in Solomons.

Slargmann Players 349 posts 2,931 battles Report post #1343 Posted February 26, 2016 Hilarious game. North east start on Hotspot. Enter the C cap and loose a well timed volley of torpedoes where I figure the opposing DDs will show up. Rewarded by not one, not two, but three strikes on two separate DDs who oblige by crossing their path. Finish off the crippled one with guns. Reload, pass by their sinking wrecks and spot a Colorado that looks like it's unwisely not zig-zagging. Quick volley fire and Colorado is gonzoes. Smooth sailing from there on.
