Yes, but it makes a big difference, notice how many Yewey’s are being played now ?, noob dds aren’t aware they can’t be touched by torps and act accordingly while launching fast deep water torps at anything else Shimi like puts them on the back foot , add in 5.8km detection, 7.5 km radar and Gearing guns etc and you have a predator, those screenshots came from a game where I totally dominated a flank, which included a Petro, you take 3/4 ships out of the equation in a ranked and you’re gonna do well, the TRB does that, imagine Gearing with it 😗. The only DD I can think of that betters the Yewey is Black, and that doesn’t spit out all the torps. I run Radar Mino despite having the Legendary Mod, for the same reason I run Radar Yewey, imho Shimi is one of the most popular DDs in the game but being a bote reliant on Torps as soon as I’m spotted they launch and smoke I radar avoid torps and gun down or scare off the Shimi (you’d be surprised how many run to the other side of the map when I pop Radar), so if you gun down or scare off the most popular DD at the start of the game it’s gonna be a good game 😃. A Z52 and I totally dominated a Haragumo and Daring, they smoked I radared; both reds died, while I launched a TRB salvo at the cruisers and BBs behind. It’s funny I do better in the Yewey in a gun fight than the Gearing. So yes it’s only a TRB buff but it’s enough, ask all heavily damaged and sunk ship owners I’ve met 😉. Oh BTW Yewey now at 22.000 HP, Shimi’s beware 😗. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way, glad it's getting a good run out now it's been buffed a bit. Hey I've been playing wows for 4 years, once you've seen enough BS you start making yer own up, ala WG ;-). 2 very poor games today thankfully redeemed by a couple of good ones, yet another dead Shimi ;-), best fight was vs a Halland, which felt like it went on for ages, I took him for 22k he took me for 12k. Best player today; was an Ohio player, with 2 vs 2 he took out a DM and then rammed the Red Ohio to win the game (leaving me as sole survivor, and second on the leader board). Are we permitted to name good players ??. Bleedin Ragnar 🤕 any chance of starting a petition to get it removed or just knock 10k off the health please 🙏🙏🙏 , thankfully quite rare in ranked 🥳🥳🥳, not helped that the one seen today is used by a bloody good player. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[AMOC] NewHorizons_1 [AMOC] Players 3,860 posts 46,862 battles Report post #20558 Posted July 31, 2022 Driving Scharny like an oversized heavy cruiser in Narai. The ol' girl has still got it - 5 star victory and +1 karma. I pushed hard into the base as the only ship heading off the CV appeared to be the Akatsuki. So I thought I might have to help the DD out with that. Thankfully the Rooke backed up the Akat, that allowed me to take out the BB on that side, hook round behind the island (that had the fort on it) and take on the remaining ships. From then on it was time to run amok! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[CAIN] Jethro_Grey Players 5,207 posts 25,714 battles Report post #20559 Posted July 31, 2022 Luckily, our AFK DD came to live when only two enemy ships were remaining, to yolo kill - and fail - a 5k HP Mecklenburg and die instantly. And there are people claiming that there is no team work in ranked... copium 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[GJE] dommo77 Players 939 posts 11,373 battles Report post #20568 Posted August 2, 2022 In all honesty, I think I like Azuma the most of all supercruisers. I know she's squishy, but these guns make up for it. And she has nice heal to mitigate damage, so if you're careful and don't show too much broadside it doesn't have to be back line HE spamming only. Like in this battle, I was on weaker side of Two Brothers, against 5 BBs/CBs/CAs and Flech only me and 3 others including Benson. Fletcher got overconfident and tried to run Benson down (he was a good experienced player), but we got him together. Our Oland did good old 'through the middle' manoeuvre without checking what is on the other side and got blasted. Fortunately my team had better players on the left hand side, and on the right - well, it was me :D Bit by bit wearing BBs down, citadelling cruisers with AP, I was fighting on closer distance than normally I would with Azuma (10-15km), so I got scratched bad few times, but at the end we came up on top - reds were very poorly organized and did not focus fire, 2 or 3 times if more than 2 of them would shoot at me I'd be probably dead quick. Nice battle, I had no kraken for a while now :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[GJE] dommo77 Players 939 posts 11,373 battles Report post #20569 Posted August 2, 2022 This battle I just have to post here Nice damage for tier VI cruiser anyway, but what was interesting here was a lineup - 2 CVs on each side, and 2 subs on each team with no DDs. A dream you'd say, right? To add to this MM offence, one of the CV players must have run an MM monitor, and targeted me as soon as I was spotted - probably because I had highest WR on my team, I checked after. In his first strike he took 5k of my HP and I got a bit tetchy as you can imagine. It was a battle with 3 caps, like usually on Strait map, so I went to the middle to get a bit of shelter from Serov and his relentless attacks among the islands, and raced through the cap like there's no tomorrow. Trento was on the other side hiding between islands, but after one or 2 cits he withdrew, I fired few salvos on closest BB and I noticed Molotov coming from behind the island to stop me - again few cits and he run away. By that time I caught attention of both carriers, but my risky charge paid off - I was on the other side, and just behind the island my prize was waiting - Serov Few cits and one griefer went to the bottom (he really was - I checked his stats, 53% WR with only a bit over 500 battles, 90% of them in CVs up to tier VI, reroll I guess?). I was still under attack and low on HP at that time, and Trento came to finish me off. He almost managed, but my reload was faster - he went down before Ranger finished me off. 18 cits in De Grasse, go figure Can't stop laughing when I think about this Serov captain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
