[BYOB] Aragathor Players 7,047 posts 32,314 battles Report post #6 Posted April 20, 2018 Since you powered through the German BB line in the last 6 days I'm going to share a secret with you. German BBs have a negative dispersion modifier for shots above 10 km. That's right, they are inaccurate above the 10km mark. And Gneisenau, with its 6 guns, suffers the most from it. Gneisenau also has some of the best secondaries and AA at tier, I think only the Lyon outshines the AA. And you have torps and turtleback armor, so no pesky citadels at close range. So instead of complaining, get closer, and watch the enemy sweat, as he is constantly set on fire by secondaries, flooded by torps, and wrecked by 6 guns identical to those on the Bismarck. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My Belfast might have a thing or two to say about that. And my Shchors. Come to think of it, my Cleveland and KGV has something to say about that too. And that is completely excluding my Blyca, Gadjah and Leningrad. Getting close in the current meta (unless lategame or very isolated engagements) means getting burned alot faster than you can burn things back. You point is well taken and I agree, but it is picking the moments to get close that differentiates a good Gneisenau player from a bad one Tbh I see no point in playing the German BBs any longer. Guns are crap, they take the most pen dmg of any nation and the French now have superior secondaries. Thx WG for powercreep. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The guns on the Bismarck however have a higher dispersion. You do get 2 more. Both Gneisenau and Bismarck play similar. Only later on, with the Frederick the Great and the Great Elector, you switch from a secondary build to a tank build. The latter two have better dispersion than the Bismarck, to compensate for the lesser effectiveness of the secondary battery. But if you don't like the Gneisenau you should reconsider playing this line. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You wanted to say obscene? Yes... And don't forget, manually targeting a squadron increases the DPS by 30%. So with BFT that Lyon should have ~572 short range AA. That's around the same number that my North Carolina has. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
