[DREAD] josykay Players 711 posts Report post #7 Posted April 13, 2018 That super container though... it could actually give a good ship. So good looking, but worse than Oleg... and suffering again from not benefitting from BFT and AFT. Go and rot in the port right next to Diana. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say the Varyag looks like a solid low tier 152mm cruiser. Nothing to rave about, but also nothing to complain about. I don't know. It is way more fragile than St. Louis, while obviously offering way worse firepower than St.Lois and Bogatyr, who still can outrange Varyag. Kolberg can relativly affortlessly outrun and outrange her. Especially with the 10 point captain. And even Oleg offers firepower, speed and trades a bit of range to get 2 additional guns... At least in the low tiers WG seems to stay firm, the Premium should be worse than the Tech Tree version. You might get solid results, but she just doesn't look impressive. And Tier 3 yields that little experience or credits, it just doesn't matter. It is, by no means a ship I would buy, but I gladly will keep it. She just looks good with that fancy bow ornament.

[SM0KE] Verblonde Players 9,787 posts 20,664 battles Report post #25 Posted April 13, 2018 Nice historical ship, and painless missions (at the same time as WOT has a hideous grind on, so both are practical) - can't grumble about that. Re: the 'lots of ribbons' thing; for those, I usually heave a slightly weary sigh and just play a few games in coop with Atlanta, and other similarly dakka-orientated ships - doesn't usually take *too* long...
