Benson C-Hull (4 guns only) but without Benson's DefAA or Loyang's Hydro. And it even has worse rudder shift. No thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[CPA] Procrastes Beta Tester 3,303 posts 3,853 battles Report post #6 Posted November 30, 2017 I just saw Flamu's video on the Hsienyang. "Fifteen seconds of radar is not enough to kill your enemy, and then you'll be sitting with neither friends nor smoke and waiting to die", was his verdict (kinda sorta). Now, I don't usually take Flamu as a baseline for my own expectations in this game, but if he can't kill someone in fifteen seconds, no one can. I'm probably going to go directly for the Shenyang, and then set my sights for the Gadjah Mada. Totally badass name on the last one, right? Or do I miss out on too much if I skip past tiers II and III? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[SCRUB] T0byJug [SCRUB] Quality Poster 5,118 posts 20,941 battles Report post #7 Posted November 30, 2017 Not saying she is good or bad. but Torp detection is a lot less .7 over 1.1 for same speed mid and close rang AA much better. Benson B hull 4x20mm and 2x12.5 Benson C hull 4x20mm and 4x40mm Hsien Yang 6x20mm and 8x40mm Not sure if its a good thing but Hsien Yang has longer range main battery. Hsien Yang better smoke Ichase says tier 7 is very good.. Shes an N class so want her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
