Powercreep edition
*ahem*Fuck submarinesFuck aircraft carriersFuck wehraboosAnd fuck WG for ruining this game
I love Azur Lane!
>>636201>
so which ships did you get today with the coupon reset? 3rd game in her and enjoy her so far (still like shiki more when i wanna go easy mode)
Installed the game again to take a peek. Played 20 games and got full uptiered to be 2 tiers below every enemy ship every single time, totally unable to even fucking play the game. What a total dogshit mess, fuck this game. Waste of disk space.
>>636228Got the BourgogneDon't know what I'll use my dunloons coupon for
>>636269skill issue, you issue, stop playing worse then sub 45% german BB boomers

>>636201Based but delusional.This isnt a game, this is a casino. In order to keep you playing and either paying or being a xp pinnata for those who do WG introduces frustration mechanics so you can never ever properly enjoy yourself. Maybe you slip and buy that new premium for an edge, maybe you pay for prem time to ease the grind against op opponents.The only winning move here is not to play and shit on WG, wows, wot or any other company and game that does this.Btw happy faggot month wows players, you deserve the praise.
>>636331>bring up grind in wowsye let me just do t8 to t9 and t9 to t10 in less then 2 days via ranked without premium and good flags/camos, holy shit most of you must be unreal shit in this game
>>636203Based.>t. purchased Eugen and Aurora last night
>>636176How long before they add missile carrying ships, realistically?
>>636331>barges in thread about game he supposedly doesn't play>complains about it>outs himself as a shitter>leaves
>hit rank 1 again>lose desire to keep playing ranked and complete qualifiers This season is just so boring
The fact they run ads about this game like crazy tells me they must be making even more money from the suckers who play it. I’ve never played it and this thread has shown me it’s not a skill based game it’s pay-to-win. Where is the fun in that “hurray I’m a bigger sucker than than the next guy!” I’ve never played raid shadow legends either but I assume it attracts a similar audience that wants pay-to-win
>>636497>wows pay2wini never cringed so hard, the average player cant win 45% of his games cause of the lack basic game mechanics, this has nothing to do with pay2win
>>636381Aurora is in game? Is it Pan-Asian?
>>636305>getting upteired from tier 6 to tier 8 every single game is a skill issuePlease kill yourself, tranny whale
>>636584https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_cruiser_AuroraThis Aurora, anon. Dolled up in appropriate Azur Lane paint scheme, of course.
>>636201WG ruined the game because they fucked aircraft carriers, wehraboos, and submarines
>>636497the most broken ship in the game is available for free from the tech tree
>>636497>P2WThe best ships in the game at T9/10 were all available for free at some point, and they're not overpowered to the point where a bad player will perform well, this isn't an RPG. The moneymaker is shitters who refuse to slowly learn the game and instead pay to get to high tiers, quickly realise they're shit, then quit forever.>>636692I'm curious, which one do you mean? Conde?
best coal ships?
>>636718petro. post nerf is yet to be determined but still strong
>>636753do you have friends to play with? Napolino friends? Marceau/Sherman
Only turboautists care about wl ratio in videogames. Wows is a game about progression and big numbers. You absolutely can buy your way to top tiers, getting immediately to endgame content>b.. But everyone plays at t8That's because economy is shit and everyone hates grind.This is a thankless task to explain to coprofiles that they like shit, sigh
grozovoi worth getting? or should I grind daring instead. I'm at t9 already in rus dd but t7 in uk
>>636797rus DDs are bad
>>636813doesn't seem that bad just a generalist
>>636760Petro is so boring I sometimes forget I even have it. Yeah, don't think that nerf matters much statistically, they really should give it long fires.
>>636797one of the best DDs in the game - sadly till t9 they are god awful and the t9 is a french dd somehow - but Ye Groz is Daring Tier good (still think with recent torp buff even better then Daring - also one of the best guns in the game)
>>636840cheers. just wish I used my coal on kuznetsov instead of the napoli. cool ship but pure misery in randoms where games are over in the first 5mins often
Is she good?
>>636872you def. should play Groz tho in divs since its absurd how strong she is as "support" DD (guns are lasers and you can tank for the other DD if needed)Napo is fine btw - meta CB pick since two seasons and in randos she is just fucking awful to face (cause how tanky that thing is)
>meta CB pick since two seasonscuck opinions are irrelevant
>>636900Yes and no. It can devstrike cruisers and seriously hurt battleships if you flank correctly, but it's very fragile and awful at HE spamming. The problem is that citadel damage isn't rewarded enough experience-wise even if it's worth a lot, so grinding with it sucks.
My first tier 10. What am I in for?
>>636966Double rudder or suffer
I've been playing this game on and off for a few months. It's alright.I only play my Nip battleships, though.
Any news on Japanese light cruiser line?
>light cruiser
>>636924cope reply from a butthurt dead clan player whos clan members haven´t seen storm steel rewards in 3 years nor know how this game works in 2022 )))>>636966one of the worst t10 cruisers you can play in ranked, randoms and CB, you have legit 0 carry weight and you can angle as much as you want, you still gona eat random citsVenezia does everything better you do and has working armorgratz on picking outdated shit anon
>implying im in a clan
>>636924>cope replyIt´s always so easy to spot HOTEL fags. The moment someone mentions "CB´s or divisions" you guys always go nuclear. No wonder most of the active members have shit recent stats with god awful PR and WR these days (yes that includes also you anon).Anyway, beside the Bougi and Incom. guy are there any other new steel chad ship owners here also?
>>637018>solo shitterlmao enjoy getting farmed by div giga chads>>637021this and proud Stalin owner
>>636966sorry anon but that was a poor choice as first t10next time go for meta shit and then for meme/outdated lines like Zao as example
>noooo you must be from [random shit living in my head]
>>637033did the memes just get worse or are half the guys from here just redditors, including you?
>>636753this >>636762
>>637021>new steel shipsGot pressured by mates to get Ragnar and I already fucking hate it. Yes it's effective, but it's the dullest ship I've ever played bar none.
>>637047pressured to get for divs or cbs? if you know what you do as DD player with her you can control most games with her in your favour
>torpless DDs
topless DDs where?
>>637051For divs. I do well with it but I don't like the playstyle (I don't have Khaba or Marceau so I didn't know what it would feel like).
>KhabaHope you dumbasses aren't spending coal on that shit
when they gonna rotate more ships for coal into the armory?
>>637098After the whale event, Black will be sold for like 300k coal. And maybe Iwami later?
>>637085its fun to win and this ship is when well played a pretty much win - even when the gameplay is "eh"
>>637104whale event? black friday or the current one?
>>636228Is that icon pack in aslain?
>>637151yes - i post later when i am done with my dailys
>>637113>it's fun to winNo it's not. I hate people like you who ruin every game by only forcing the meta.
>>636176>quit playing a few months before subs started getting tested>quit around the time carriers got another buff>watch a flamu video to see the current state of the gamedodged a bullet
>>637242You can't mention le funny spurdo man in these threads cause it prolapses the anus of local strong opinionhavers.
is nevsky any good? is there much utility in the radar or is it more a late game tool?
>>637226funny thats the guy >>637254 talks about but whatever
Next collab will be Genshin Impact
>>637283Sounds like it could be fun. Not a Genshitter myself, but more waifu captains is always good with me.
Daily reminder that CVs and subs are for chads only. If they make you seethe then ur a beta bitch dyel.
>retard crutch dev protected class>chadwhat did he mean by this
How do we balance subs? We need them to be a hard counter to aircraft carriers.
by removing both classes
Carried my team for the first time today. Granted, it's low tiers so I was mostly seal-clubbing AI but I smoked two actual humans too, including a rival destroyer who almost got me when he fired his second torpedo volley almost 90 degrees to the first one. That shit was hard to dodge.This is a good feel. I see why you guys still play this game even though you complain about all the broken an unbalanced shit in it.
>got Yukikaze fully expecting it to be a shit memeship>76% WR, 2.5 destruction ratio
>>637571Nano da~
>>637421>seethinglol
>>637605Wait she gets her own flag too?
>>637570I'm glad you had fun anon but trust me you have no idea of the true suffering until you reach tier 8
How the fuck do you play the Izumo. Fucking unfun piece of turd. Is Yamato gameplay the same?
>>637648it's one of the best t9 bbs. bbs are not fun, they're for boomers and retards. yes.
Is Prussia worth getting? Grinding fdg is pure agony. Ship cant brawl or snipe, literally the worst of both worlds.Also while American bb line should I go up? I got a big tidy anime captain so I stuck her in the new mexico
>>637664Monty. Only go Vermont if you have enough free xp to push right into T10
Any good and fun tier 6-7 DDs for practice playing DDs?
>>637658But how do you play it? Is Izumo and Yamato just about sitting nose in while stationary? I want to zoom around like in Amagi.
>>637674Hatsuharu was surprisingly fun for me, and the AA isn’t altogether awful if you’re facing same tier CVs
>>637676No BB should be played full stationary, but few are good at "zooming around", and it's certainly not the japs.
>>637676yes they are pure area denial. your job is to position well and be an anti ship sniper. the fun of kongo and amagi are long gone, it is best you forget them
>>637700Are the french BBs good for relieving the amagi glory days?
>>637676>>637699>few are good at "zooming around"I think the upcoming British battlecruisers are just like that.
>>637702yeah French are more what you're after
>>637704Ye Repulse is fun as fuck. Idk about the higher tier ones. Full of meme gimmicks and questionable armor.
>>637674US, UK and German DDs work just fine
How do I play this POS? I just want Elbing.
>>637718>german DDslol>>637724free XP to T9
>>637669Minnesota isn't too horrible, kansas is absolute garbage though
>>637725Hydro lets you outplay lots of people especially lower tiers. Very much worth learning
>>637740well yeah, but he asked about tier 6-7 DDs which the german ones are middling, the tier 8 is by far the best of the line for its tier
>>637773Tier 6-7 are fine. I think tier 9 is strongest for tier
I want to fuck a DD
>>637648Yes, you will get trolled by dispersion. Things get a little bit better in yamato. Unless you leggo mod yamato you will also get trolled. But when you buy satsuma she is the best BB in game RN, there is no competition. But playing it will make you lose credits unless you have premium time and play half decent in match. Keep that in mind
>>637810
Which German lines are competitive?
Do you think they will do Haifuri collab again? I want Harekaze.>>637868Probably Schlieffen line.
>>637882Isn't shliffen getting nerfed
Should I buy a amur lane container. A captain for 2500 doubles loons worth it?
>>637885Probably not, it's pretty hard to play well and its stats will normalize as more shitters get it.>>637887A 10p commander is 500 gold and even that's not worth it, would you pay 5 times more for a shitty weeb voice?
>>637887The problem is you can't choose which girl you want to buy.
>>637900>>637896I hate new Hershey's voice so much it hurts but I spent 1650 doubloons so I have to stick her in a ship
Gadjah Mada is good, right? And how are tier 8,9,10 PA DDs?
>>637887I think aslain has the voice mod already. Been playing with ARP Haruna voice since I started.
I got hood, nelson, and prinz eugen. which ships should I ship the captains with
Which line?
>>638037Neither
>>638037Haru till Kita - best T9 DD in the game
>>638044Why? I thought Japanese DDs are good? Also, what about Russian?
>>638061The only tech tree DD lines worth grinding are FR, UK and EU. The others aren't all bad but not amazing.
>>638061>Japanese DDs are goodShima line is great if you are a master of passive play. And 99% of her captains aren't.Aki-Kita-Haru are more of mini cruisers than traditional dds.Rus DDs are turd.
>>637724>shit ships people hate but somehow you like themWhat's her name, /vm/?
>>638097Zao. People underestimate an accurate AP salvo at ambush range.
>>638097Double rudder rangemod Zao
>>637810CALL THE MPS
>>638066>s DDs are turd.45% shitter
>>637868None, everything german is shit.>>637885It was OP when first released, now its irrelevant.>>637887No, its total gacha and you can get dupes. Unless you like most of the girls, play all of the nations in game and fine with receiving any of them dont.
>>638051What’s the benefit of Kita over Aki?
How are you supposed to play a battle cruiser like Kongo?
>>6383166 torps VS 4 torps I think.
>>638398Use your speed to get onto flanks and shoot broadsides. Put pressure on kiting cruisers. Follow your destroyers and shoot at things they spot/provide a distraction to keep the heat off them. Don’t get hit
>>638398You dont, you skip through it because low tiers are trash unless you are a unicum statpadder.
boats make me horny
>>638490But Kongou is good though?>>638520
How do we get depot tokens without spending cash on them?
Does anyone else like the 2nd German DD line? Sure they are not the best but they are very unique and fun to play.
>>638566what's unique about it? its a dd with a terrible turn rate, speed, detection, mobility, torps, and no hydro trading all that for an above average gun
>>638559As far as I know you don't I think initial plan was to make it part of the personal challenges but they changed it to make it a whaling eventAnd it's a really stupid one at that>random bundles for random amount of tokens>use tokens to unlock 3 different random bundles with random prizes

>received a cashback 200% couponconvince me not to spend money on this game
>>638688The game isn't P2W. If you're new and shit no ammount of money will replace the thousands of battles you need to learn it.
>>638688Buy one of the massive Azur Lane bundles and use it on thatEz dubs
>>638566no, because I'm salty that they nerfed my precious Z-23 to make room for them
what is this depot token shit
Dammit I got al yukikaze. I dont want a damn cat captain
I got both and idk where to stick them
Trying to learn how to aim are the crosshairs from mod station more useful?
>depth charge planes work on convoy shipsOk
>>639391>enemy spots him from 7km away
>>639322Stick them on their ships, obviously. Find something of a similar class or role otherwise.
>>639322Put Yukikaze on whatever you want and spam voice lines incessantly, preferably the ones you can send to both teams
>get Cherbourg and skin>get Jean Bart and Dunquerqe commandersI’m conflicted, because I like Jean Bart more, but Cherbourg’s skin is much more Iris Libre looking than Vichya
>mfw modded voicelines override all azurnigger garbage so I don't have to listen to it
>>639445I bought the commander pack
FPE or CE for my first 4 point skill on my Amagi captain?
>>639479I pity your dedication to cute girls, anon. The cost does not justify it.
Reminder there are people who bought the AL Azuma
>>638622That's the point. They're DD that's shit at being DD and play more like CL but still has innate DD advantage like high concealment and no citadel.
>>639502Bunch of weak willed retards that can't stomach unlocking it through collections
>>639515>collectionsThat's only give you the captain.
>>639515>retardsThey are retards for playing the Azuma in general
Has friendly fire been turned off or something, just had a shima launch all his torps into my side and didn't take any damage.
>>639482I’d go with CE for the kiting play
>>639529Been that way for a while. Shame, the upcoming Iwami would lead to some hilarious raging
>>639492the cost was nothing to me honestly, I spend a lot more on other hobbies. once a year I use a coupon to buy 25k dubs at x3 for 75k total
>>639539Must be nice not being poor.
>>639539This post makes me feel unpleasant.
>>639529>>639534Pretty sure there's just a minimum arming distance for torps.>t. got put on three game probation a few weeks back for shelling the shit out of a friendly accidentally
>>639441WHY
>>639565Why not?
>>639565Cute voice.youtube.com/watch?v=xyHo2B92RIE
>>639541where do you guys live that ~$100 annually is a lot?
>>639580Probably in Serbia or some other Balkan shithole larping as a real country
>>639577Okay, the wahahas are kinda charming.
is the sherman worth it or should i save my coal?
>>639609its fat and slow but it bullies a lot of ships with its absurd dpm and picosecond reload
do ships you buy with coal count towards unlocking the research bureau?
>>639609Yes but it really benefits from a divmate. For solo play, Marceau is better.>>639610Nope. Why would you even care about RB if you have so few tech tree ships?
>>639610Sorry, meant to reply to guy below >>639612
redpill me on marceau vs sherman, which is the better DD in randoms. assume i have a div.
>>639646Depends on the map and matchmaking. Most cases Sherman is probably way easier due to smoke+hydro+SAP combo. For ranked Marceau is way better if you know how to play.Honestly both are great dds, you wont go wrong with either. Watch replays from YT
>>639650thx mate, leaning towards the sherman
>>639652If you are under 55% wr solo player, take Sherman, it's safer. Meanwhile grind French dd line and learn it's quirks (fast dd without smoke) and save coal for Marceau. You really want to get both of them if you enjoy dd gameplay
>>639653this - also Marc and Kleber play very differently (the guns, concealment make a huge difference in gameplay) so seeing if the French line is for you would be a coal saver in general - but definitely a line you should never go for when your not an experienced dd player
Should I pick IFHE for Akizuki?
>>639741No, you never use ifhe ever. Its never worth to fuck your fire chance in any ship whatsoever.
>>639748She only has 5% fire chance but with IFHE she can pen over 32mm Seem like a lot of gain for me.
>>639751IFHE would be worth it as a free toggle, but it's not good enough to be spending captain skills on it. Gunboats are already point starved even at 21.>>639748>any ship whatsoeverLook up Fenyang
>>639751the dpm makes up for the low fire chance
what's even the point of gunboat DDs? you sacrifice good torpedoes and detectability for guns that are only good "for a DD". is it just to win destroyer duels? the more torpedo-heavy DDs are typically faster and have lower detectability, you'll never find them
>>639783You'd be right if DDs didn't have to cap. Sure, gunboats don't have the potential of dealing hundreds of thousands of damage, but if you kill the enemy torpedo boat, cap and live to farm a bit of damage, you're much more likely to win than him.
I prefer a more balance between gun and torp can anyone give me some DDs like this?
>>639800UK, Fr, EU, US
Retarded question but can you torp yourself? It seems Marceau should tehnically be able to with a couple of Auboyneau speed procs.
CVs can, but no point since friendly fire got removed
>>639783go by DMG at higher tiers and its only gun boats/dd hunters that mainly rely on guns that are top dmg farmers
I have one left over German captain with 14 points and with only DD lines left to grind, should I go for Z-52 or Elbing?
wait the fucking depot tokens are gold only? Nice "event" lmao
>>639851ELBING
>>639898Look like a good cruiser but bad DD How does it perform compared to Z-52 and which one is better/more fun for solo?
>>639913elbing is a cruiser with no citadel
>>639751nope doesnt matter, you will be hitting the superstructre most of the time and you wont get much extra bow and aft hits to make the difference you are losing on fire chance. 5 percent gets reduced to nothing if you pick ifhe since ships have inherent fire resistance. You wont see even 1 fires. Fires are the main things that kills BBs when you are spamming shells from DDs.>>639783Better conceal in torp dds dont matter when you have better dpm, They will run away from you to not get gunned down. If you scare them away you are already at an advantage. DDs win this game, if you kill enemy dd you are more than likely going to crush that flank if you dont get destroyed in return. Also unlike torp dds you can use your guns to harass enemy BBs cruisers etc behind smoke,islands or if you have range for it even open water gunboat. A gunboat DD is far better than Torp DD if he knows what he is doing.
>>639939based.been considering the sherman for a while now, looks nice and easy to play. hope its fun.
I rarely see Italian DDs. Are they bad?
>>639819Nohttps://youtu.be/9Gw38Twj5FI
>>639949very hard - strong if your a good kiter dd player since your alpha nukes ppl - bad if played by apes
>>639949They require someone that is able to do two things at once; fire their guns and maneuver their boat. 99% of this player base is unable to do such a thing a consequently fucking sucks with them.
Does Vigilance stack with the torpedo lookout system mod?
>>640015hydro and the one mod that increases torp spotting does - no idea about tho what you mentioned
Range mod or reload mod on Elbing?
>>640036Reload mod, range skill
>>640036aft and reloaddont play it solo otherwise enjoy your free report whenever i see a solo elbing
>you have to play it how I DESIRE REE
>Playing ranked>Iowa and FDG come under fire from 2 PRupp's, a Neptune and Kitakaze>Both stop and just sit there>Get ripped to shreds>Start screaming how the team needs to uninstall the gameI really hate the people that play this game at times
>>640098Ranked legit became the worst game mode becasue the retards become way big influence in the smaller teams.
>>640101Should honestly only be available for people with a 50% or higher win rate at a minimum.
>>640071If any german ship says that ignore it, if anyone else does that most likely he knows the game far better than you and you are doing a fucking retard move that will throw the game or your ship, or both>>640101Play the meta DD, otherwise true. Everyone in ranked is below 50 WR subhuman other than (you) and 1-2 people on the other team. Its much more volatile if you arent the DD. Its that simple, dont play any other ships in ranked if you want to have any influence in match. Otherwise its worse than randoms.
>>640106>randomly check someones profile>nothing but 800 games in tirpitz
>>640106What ranked needs is matchmaking based on PRIt's not a perfect measure but it's probably the best one we have
>>640136Personally I'd be happy if they added another random battle mode that cuts team sizes in half
>>640071just4fun player spotted
>>640180chadyes.jpg

>>640290>me when seeing a destroyer running toward me when I was playing a sub.youtube.com/watch?v=qYqQvV89YzM
Will Iwami be decent? She seems underwhelming compared to Georgia.
>>640676it looks like a better Hizen - Hizen isnt that bad its just there are far better BBs at t9
>>639783torpedo destroyers to be the meta in CBT before hydro was added and torpedo speed and detectability were generally nerfed going into OBT, kamikaze is an exception, being the last more or less untouched relic from the torpedo DD meta days
Did i fuck up by going German CV instead of say... Russian CV who gets more than 2 planes per attack?
>>640727low tier german cvs are busted - moment you reach t8 your fucked - worst CVs in the gamego RU cvs for solo only and if you only care about big numbas - go burgers if you wanna win and have team impact
>>640727>did i fuck up by using handheld napkin ships instead of other napkin ships?Why yes retard.
>>640735been doing fine with T4 and 6 german CV so i guess i'll just stop at that. Thanks.>>640758Any suggestions for what nation and ship class i should try for when i get bored of CV?
>>640831you want meta stuff or just ships that are fun/strong in solo/divs etc?
Whats the best non premium ship for farming credits?

Is the Skane worth buying?
>is [ship in the middle of the tech tree] worth buingWhat?
>>641054Either researching the Skane or saving the free xp to finish off grinding the Izumo
>>641086Get the izumo researched normally and then free xp to Yamato so you don't have to play that turd.
>>641104I'm a poorfag so I don't have the cash on me at the moment to convert all the free xp I've got built up across various ships.
>>640848meta and strong
>>641134Just farm the free xp normally.
>>641138I'll be doing that for the next fucking decade at the glacial pace that free xp comes by once I run out of flags for it
Weser, Furious or Ryujo?
>>640907None, if you dont want to pay up get a freemium. TX,T9 coal, steel ,fxp ship is much better than Tech tree stuff.
>>641194100 percent ryujo, best T6 CV >>641086Play izumo normally, its a good BB. You stay angled in the middle and shoot everyone that gives broadsides. Dont waste your FXP on skipping T9 ships unless they are exceptionally bad. Because higher tier ships give mroe base xp than low tier ones you are wasting your fxp on high tiers. Just play them normally. As for the euro line , it doesnt get good up until öster. So save your fxp to skip up until that ship.
Annoys the absolute shit out of me we can't play air superiority cv's any more

Why is the B hull for the North Carolina more expensive then the B hull for ships a tier above it?
>>641136ok soi just gona name all lines then (t10 ship always mentioned and aimed for)CV: Midway (for divs, solo tryharding), Naki (pure dmg farm)DD: Daring (jack of all trades), Halland (solo tryhard torp nigger - Gearing if you play in divs or wanna support team via best smoke in the game - randos in 99% cases wont make any use of it tho), Groz (free exp till 9 - tier 9 is a french DD with heal, Groz then is pretty much still one of the best "support" DDs at t10), Kleber line only when you got comfy with DDs that dont rely on heal (strong in divs, can work solo if you use your brain and dont rely on your team), Haru line but mostly for t8 Aki and t9 Kita (just great ships for solo and divs)BB: Kremlin line is from t7 onwards busted, Yami line is still solid but you need to be the guy that doesnt max range shitter snipe everyone (learn to play at medium ranges where you overmatch everyone), as "fun" line hands down Schlieffen line (from 7 onwards just fun to play but dont expect solo carry)Cruiser: Petro (free exp that shit line and yes since i guess have no Stalin or the steel in the near future Petro is the glue eater Cruiser), Alex (kiter line is pure tryhard and team support that just has a great kit in general), Desmo still solid (can skip this if you plan to get Salem in the future), Goliath (must free exp to Drake - fuck you Marble fags its shit), if you want more HE farmers Hindi, Henry are still "ok"If you got anymore questions just ask on the 2DQT shitcord server or on the /vm/ ingame channel if something isnt clear
>>641350if non is from 2D on the /vm/ channel online you otherwise also can ask someone from HOTEL in case you are not from EU well lucky enough more NA guys seem to be around on here these days
>comparing Salem to DM
How’s the ijn cv line?
Kitakaze is SEX
>>641357>sister ships>hurr u cant compare themWhat's next, you gonna say Iowa and Missouri can't be compared?
>>641457Salem has way shittier radar and super heal instead. Their role is completely differrent. Missouri and Iowa are literally the same case. Radar changes a lot.
>>641481It's beneficial sure, but you shouldn't play a ship solely around it's radar
>>641501
>>640956You can redo campaign missions for the stars, just won’t get the original reward again
>>641654wait what
just lost 4 games in a row, 3 of which were in my new ship. I should just uninstall ffs
>>641689Anon, I some of my best credit-earning games tonight were ones I lost with my South Carolina.
>>641654Seriously?
>>641689Just tested it and he's telling the truth. Been playing these campaigns all wrong apparently.
>>641717Do you just click it and accept again?
>>641718yea
>>641720>could've had Yamamoto, Shinonome and Epoch months agoJust fucking kill me.
>>641721Same. I feel like a complete retard for not realizing this sooner.
>>641502He's right, Radar is great, but the guns make the ship 95% of the time
>>641750Aren't the Salem and DM guns literally identical?
>>641751I believe so
I hope I haven't made a terrible mistake going for the nevsky
>>641758It's really fucking boring but incredibly effective. Get a divmate in a DD with long smoke and don't forget to use AP
>>641762I don't really get how any CLs are incredibly effective when 9/10 bbs overmatch now. even if I juke and dodge all it takes is 1 shell hit to take 10% hp and if they're lucky it'll citadel too
>>641764CLs farm damage, don't take 1v1s with BBs and try not to be their primary target, either through cover or distance. Nevsky is effective because it has bullshit radar, it can hit even the fastest DDs at range, is way too tanky for its class and the medium caliber gives it a pretty good smoke firing penalty.
What’s your comfy ship, the one that you choose when you just want to relax and have a good time? For me it’s Ise
>>641801Mass/Georgia/Ohio, particularly in Ranked/Brawls
>>641801V-170
>>641789I'm not talking about 1v1s. if I'm firing ~15km then any bb, at the very least the one I'm firing at, is going to be targeting me. what server and times do you play that CLs are not immediately prio #2 (after dd) for every ship in the game. chip damage equates to chunks of my hp. the rest I agree with
>>641821>prio #2 (after DD)If your enemies actually have a brain you're probably playing at the worst time possible, the average player in randoms should be worse than a bot>what server and times do you playEU, late evening/night
>>641828solo or in divs
>>641859Not sure how that matters, but I mostly div with the same one dude.
>>641801any t10 BB, point and click
IT HAS BEEN THERE ALL THIS TIME ASKFJADALGFHGHIM AAAAAAAAAAAA
Myoko is pretty fun. Her HE hit hard and starts fire like no tomorrow. Why do people say Japanese cruisers suck again?
>>641948Gigantic citadel, poor armor, poor range on the guns. no gimmicks. Zao is the worst t10 cruiser. Enjoy the t7 myoko when you arent getting matched with t9s
>>641951>poor armorI don't get it. Zao has 25mm bow, 30mm deck and upper belt. Isn't that standard for most CAs?
>>641952According to the faggots here if its not a Petro its shit
>>641972man you rly sound like you only play the shit that has no match impact, no wonder you sound so bitter>>641952Zao is the only "kiter" cruiser at t10 that always eats random cits when angled, pretty much the only t10 cruiser where angling doesn´t matter and the main reason non plays it beside low as fuck HP pool and there being better ships (Ven, Yoshi, Henry, Hindi) that do everything better then Zao
>>642003So it's better to stop at Mogami for 15 155mm meme and get Yoshino for tier 10 instead of Zao?
>>642013i say stop for now with the line, you are not making yourself it easy playing cruisers in general since their spot in the food chain is pretty high atm - you would be just better off going for a better/stronger cruiser line then having now Zao in port sitting when you gona barley play her the moment you understand what ships are just better then Zao overall are you by any chance on EU and in either 2DQT/HOTEL/KUMA?
>>642037Nope, I'm a solo shitter playing on and off.
>>642046hm would otherwise recommended getting in touch with a few good Zao players from either clansanyway in terms of Zao vs Yoshi Yoshi is better for solo play but there are better coal ships worth your coal
>>641861nigga time you play with other ppl also and see what they play when they div
>get 30k community tokens>grab t7 container>get this>already have the black friday version I got in a container a few years backShould have seen it coming
>Half the enemy team dead in the first 5 minutes of the match>everyone starts with the GG shit>Enemy team goes on a rampage and doesn't lose another shipI fucking hate random battles
>>642230Why is there a pet carrier in the pic?
>>642289Idk, thats just how it shows up in the container Same thing with the firepower containers I believe
I love anime!
>>642369I love Japan, period.
>>642369Hitler had the right idea but the wrong people, should have been weebs instead of jews.
I hope the Japanese light cruisers are good or at the very least fun to play.
I'm tempted to buy the Yukizake Should I do it?
>>642492youtube.com/watch?v=xyHo2B92RIE
>>642492Do it, the torps are short range but fast and it’s absolutely hilarious when they connect. They hit like freight trains
>>642267I report people who say GG after a stomp
>>642546>well done
>>642267>2 enemy ships left (bb and he spammer)>5 friendly>control 2/3 caps>friendlies start a 1 by 1 lemming train into death until we lose on points instead of just defending for a few more minutesevery fucking time
I love my Elbing, fuck the police
>>641801Bismarck and Kamikaze R
>>642389I hope they have better angles for their torpedo launchers, the heavy cruisers are cursed with having the best torpedoes and no way to use them
>Launch torps at enemy dd>Nigga see's them and gets out of the way>DD launches torps at me, literally don't see them until they are about 100 meters from my ship and have no chance to get out of the way
>>642592>Japanese Light Cruisers>By fall, we'll have added Japanese Tier V–X light cruisers for testing. >Their concept is in development, but we can already safely say that all ships of the branch will have 610 mm torpedoes at their disposal, and their torpedo launchers will have wide aiming angles. >As for their main batteries, the Tier V and VI ships will have 152 mm guns, the Tier VII ship will have 155 mm guns, and high-tier cruisers will carry 150 mm dual-purpose guns.
>>642569Nothing gets me more erect then a team that refuses to stay in the caps when the enemy team is on 950 points with one dd left to go chase after the fucking dd at the other end of the map. Like all these faggots need to do is stay in the cap and we'll win after a couple minutes.
>>642389>>642592>>642594God I can't wait.
When do the new french cruisers become available for everyone? Really wanting to sell my Cherbourg and use the money to buy something that isn't total shit
>friendly Hood bum rushes from start bragging about how fast he is with the undetected perk>gets spotted focused and gives other team first blood>brags for the rest of the match about destroying a tier lower cruiser and chunking half of a Nagato’s health before dying
>Finally get Lion>Free xp the guns straight away>Go into battle expecting to burn everything>80 main battery hits>Not a single fire
>>642673>80 main battery hits>Not a single fireHow?
>>642673load HE
>>642674Fuck if I know. Feels like this game is intentionally fucking me over at times. On the bright side I had a shot aimed at a Slava fall short and detonate a Petro that wasn't visible.>>642687Had HE loaded
What are the benefits of the permanent Epoch camo you get when finishing the final stage of Five Epochs of the Navy campaign?
>>642699It's a free t9 permacamo
>>642702I get that but what are the perks that come with it
>>642703Same bonuses that come with the standard t9 permacamos
>>642712And what are those bonuses? Literally have never had a t9 perma camo before
>>642716Just go click on a t9 ship and lokk at the permacamo I don't have my game up right now and I don't feel like looking it upI could probably guess but if I'm wrong people will laugh at me
>>642718You have to have it first to look at it.
how do people find bbs fun? does the occasional broadside really make up for spending the rest of the game barely moving?
>>642739Barely moving = being able to play with one hand
>>642739You don't sit at the back waiting for people to show you broadside. Get into positions where they are forced to show it. It's like herding sheep, you don't run straight at them.
Suprised that brawls aren't just german secondary BBs
>>642673>assume worst case scenario>only shooting at T10 BBs with FP (T10 halves fire chance, FP further reduces it by 10%)>gives you an effective fire chance of 20.7%>chance of no fire in 80 shells is less than 0.0000009%Why would anyone lie on the internet?
>>642748which bbs do you like the most?
>>642761Soviet and US. The japs are also nice but I hate the Yamato because it rewards idiots who can't aim.
>>642766how do you mean? I thought ijn bbs were meant to be snipers with tight dispersion
>>642769With other ships you need broadsides and careful aim to do consistent damage. Yamato pens most things from every angle so even retards who just aim for center mass do reasonably well in it.
>>642013Nope, yoshino isnt good either. Watch yuros vieo about it or read little white mouses review in wows forums>HIGH EXPLOSIVE MELONS | YOSHINOTldr: yoshino, despite being better armored than the azuma is still a cruiser that can do only one thing and one thing only. Sit at 20km away from enemy and throw shells while angled away from them. Your HE pen is good but your fires per minute isnt as great as you think it would be. You are the cruiser with the least game impact, because if you pretend to be a BB, you are just taking BB slot. If you try to push in yoshino you will die. You dont have the armor or gun angles for it. All the jap cruisers are shit. What you can do is wait for japanese CL line that is coming in fall this year. Otherwise stop playing them. Its not worth it.Also dont play solo in randoms. Its just going to be suferring. If you are in EU apply for one of the clans 2DQT/HOTEL and div with people.>>642492No, yukikaze is just worse kagero with no way to equip better torps. If you want a fun AL ship that is viable, get montpelier.>>642699Dont waste your epoch camo on stupid ships like i did. You have to put the epoch camo on the ships you are going to regrind again to get research bureau points. Otherwise its going to be a total waste. DDs are mostly the preferred regrind lines so use it on them.>>642781If your t10 bb cant overmatch cruiser 30mm deck its irrelevant.
>>642781practically every bb in the game overmatches cruisers
>>642794God some people on this thread are so fucking stupid
What makes you think ijn CLs won't explode as fast as CAs?
>>642896Because the even weaker armor will cause more overpens from bbs
>>642939That only works on russians.
>>642896Who knows, so far only thing we know about them are they are going to have good torps with good angles. That is it. If that is the only gimmick they are going to have they are going to be yet another dead on arrival line like pan asian cruisers and dutch
should I make a secondary captain for my german battlecruisers? they have better secondaries than the preussen line but they're not ships I'd want to brawl with
>>643047>not ships I'd want to brawl withThat's what the torps are for m8
>>643053yeah but it's not what the battlecruiser armor is good for
>>643047I’m kinda new so maybe I’m wrong but if you mean the Schlieffen line isn’t that line supposed to get into secondary range and brawl
>>643047Nigger, that is the only reason you pick that line. If you dont want to brawl go with japanese bbs.
Noob here, you guys have some guides? Been playing german bbs and been having some fun. I've only been playing tier 3-4 so far.
>>643072They are meant to get in range and brawl when the enemy team has been whittled down a bit and distracted, not in the first 5 minutes of the match when everyone is at full health and looking to wreck shit of anything in sight
>>643116When you go up tiers dont do these1- stay at 20km from everyone else and try to snipe for the entire match2- Press W at the start of the battle and get killed when 3-4 people shoot/torp you and surprise when you are killed.Time your attack right, if your flank is strong push, if its weak kite away. For the rest just google. That's it.Get in a clan that will teach you the ropes.
>>643116You have a keyboard with WASD keys, utilize them when you are fighting.
>>643116look fast for a clan that teaches you the basics - you can always decide to play solo down the line but make yourself the start a bit easier just by learning from others mistakes (german bb line is a heavy no in terms of new player line to go for)
any fun NA clans out there? what clans yall part of?
I am bad at this game and it makes me feel bad but there are no alternatives
So coming back to this game after a few years away, what the fuck happened with the cv's? Was hyped to start dicking around again in my bogue.
>>643323I made my own clan just to stick my waifu's name next to my in game name
>>643295Not really if you can stop for 2 seconds and think that the short ranged torps are only a standoff weapon and that you shouldn't be rushing at the start of the match in a BB to drop torps with the dd's
I've just been reported by the entire enemy team for playing an OP ship in ranked. Fucking ZF6 is OP now. They had Musashis, of course.
>>643323it’s like mostly EU here (2DQT,HOTEL and Kuma) with plenty of burger and sea anons playing also on EU, you need to ask the NA guys which clans are left from here cause your otherwise better off just starting on EU desu (more players, better and worse player base at the same time, more anons you could play with etc)
Are the azurshit Hood and Eugen captains locked to their nameships or can I put them on any ship of their nations?
>asashio in ranked>black without radarWhy are these retards always on my team?
>Get giftcard for birthday>Figure I'll spend the money on some doubloons>WG site refuses to let me buy them saying account doesn't exist or is blockedBunch of faggots, why can't they just accept gift cards and not try to be so dam selective about where they come from
>>643684because gift cards are exclusively used by scammers and old people being scammed
>>643371Based waifu lover. Who is she?
>>643662I think I can put Eugen on any German ship, since she's just sitting in my reserve right now.>t. bought Eugen but currently grinding US tree
>>643719I'm not gonna tell simply because I don't need the resident schizo here to start adding me to his list of boogeymen
>>643474Not him but how much more players are there I’m like at Kongo and Ryūjō feels like it’d be a hassle to move now is it worth it?
>>643684Because regional pricing desu>>643662No they arent locked, all commanders of a specific nation can be changed between that nations ships by retraining. For premium ships, they dont need retraining when switching commanders.
Arizona or West Virginia 1941?
>>643733depends rly if you wanna div or if you more a solo player cause if the later then not worth it (t5/6 is not that "far" and with some recruit shit + clan buildings you should be back in no time desu)on EU for solo i would go with HOTEL, if you wanna active play with ppl in divs then go 2DQT, KUMA i cant talk much about since its quiet around them (for the moment at least)
>>643754Feel like I’m more on the solo side but I’m having some trouble learning how to play battleship/ carrier so a clan might be able to help with that
>>643765just ask for shitcord server invite desuhttps://discord.gg/Kw2Gm9Ug (2DQT)there will be some HOTEL guy around sooner or later being able to post theirs so you got at least the option out of two servers from EU
>Try brawl>my kitakaze vs kearsage>dude says sorry for the shit MM he'll make this quick on me>he rushes cap and eats 5 of my 6 torps, pop out from behind island and rape him for the last bit of his hp>rages at me saying I'm trash for playing such a gimmicky ship
How would paolo emilo be in brawl?
>>643816Italian cruiser?
>>643822Italian DD with short range mega torps and exhaust smoke
>>643829If you can keep out of sight and wreck people with your torps before moving it should work. But I'm total trash so listening to me is the last thing anyone should do
>>643812Fucking lmao you should have recorded that match
>>643812>gimmicky ship>says kearsage player>against a normal destroyerIs he even human to think he had a chance, much less accuse a normal dd for being gimmicky and doing destroyer things.>>643816Mogador is the best DD for t9 brawls, no opposition ever, yolo is okish but if it faces any gun dd it gets fugged
Fuck me the Arizona is OP as shit in t6 matches.
>>643870>Is he even human to think he had a chanceTo be fair I am pretty shit with only a 50% win rate so while I have occasional big brain moments they are balanced out by me being total trash at times.
>>643904Individual skill is heavily suppressed by retard teams and rng in random battles, so solo carry is very hard unless you do very good with DD and focus playing them. Even with that team can still throw. So getting close to and above 50 wr solo is an achievement in on of itself. Especially if you aren't a DD main.
>>643924Usually main bb's but been trying to get branch out to cruisers and dd's recently. Main reason I even went kita in the first place was watching a couple divisions of them absolutely shred the teams I was usually on.
>>643765Is anyone from HOTEL I would appreciate a server link also there no problem with ping or anything playing On EU from west coast right?
>>643935in 2DQT there is someone from ASIA and pretty much can play without big issuesreminder that since a fuck ton of CIS ppl got a free transfer to EU a bunch of NA guys started playing on EU also
is the ruckus in the depot event worth it?
>>644091If you get the T9 or year of Premium in the 100 token bundle it's worth it, because you can buy 90 tokens from store and gambling for 10 more isn't awful. Anything else, no.
>>644091It's total trash. The T9 ships are just the ones you can get for free xp and not even any interesting ones like Alaska
>>643935Here you go, https://discord.gg/ue5tGETVd6Just answer the gatekeepers questions correctly and you can enter.
do people make credits on tier 10 nowadays or still 8/9 premiums? 8 matchmaking is abysmal
>>644177t8 mm with the new changes is the closest thing to +1/-1 mm we will get for nowt9 is still the money maker or t8 with weeb camos >>644136why did you have to make it sound so cringe and not just posted the link like the guy above
>>643736>For premium ships, they dont need retraining when switching commandersI thought it were the lego commanders that don't need retrain?
>>644101wait where can u buy the 90 tokens in the store?
>>644299Premium store. For cash. Please don't spend money on this.
Is the Haragumo any good or should I just stick with the Kita?
>>644332Tier for tier Kitakaze is better.
>>644332Kita is if not beside ZF6 the strongest DD if we go by per tier
>Playing ranked>Win everything up to rank 3>Suddenly in a freefall back to level 10 as every team I'm on is yoloing into the face of the enemy or straight up ignoring half crippled ships with 10km of them to shoot the afk faggot 20km away
>>644494To win and advance in ranked you have to play DD, you have the biggest game impact . Even if you lose you will most likely save a star if you didnt huff glue at the edge of the map.
>>644504Yea I've started trying to get good with the kita for this exact reason
>Ranked>battle comes down to a 500 health Z44 and a full health Kidd>Kidd refuses to use his guns and instead tries to launch torps despite being within 5km of the enemy dd>Kidd dies and we lose the match
>>643116Noob here again, started up on destroyers. Just been doing randoms only tier 4 for now. Just killed a carrier and his bb buddy acting as a body guard. Why are destroyers so much fun?
>>644543>v-170fucking based. How are you enjoying the jousting torp launchers on the front?
>>644543cause you have impact
>>644569They're nice. I don't mind doing a little wiggle back and forth to try and get both off. I kind of use them to zone a little, while using the sides to dump a bunch of damage with. Still not too good once I head into tier 5, it seems like it's a bigger increase in skill in other players or at least it's a lot more punishing of mistakes. >>644571You're right. That was my favorite match besides the one as Koing where I used the scout plane to snipe three different guys over islands. It feels like I actually do stuff as bbs and destroyers. I can't play a carrier for my life and cruisers just seem kind of meh overall.
>>644576Cruisers scale better with higher the tiers you go while BBs start losing impact.
oh no the economy (((rework))) patch
how is it possible that the mackensen is so good and the p. heinrich is so disgustingly, horribly awful when it's the same ship with better guns
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>644543Speed is fun, lets you pull silly maneuvers, and then torps mean you also have actual bite.
>>644679I actually loved the heinrich, hated zeiten tho
I spend all my fxp going down the nevsky line and I fucking hate it. God damn I'm a retard
>>644768The line doesnt get good until nevsky. Common issue in lot of lines. Nevksy is op bote, so worth it.
How hard is it to get ship slots for a f2p player?
>>644810you get them with every weekly or monthly (whenever you get RB tokens via the one mission chain)
>>644768its all about Alex - borderline OP if you understand what cruisers can do and what Alex has above all others>>644725gz CUNNY
>>644768They're not OP like Nevsky, but Chapayev and Donskoi share the same best radar in the game. Even if you're dogshit, you can still do well by parking in cover near a cap and pressing a button.
How do I get anime girl captains? Completed the Azure Lane collection and the captain I got just morphed into some random japanese guy.
>>644725Had this happen the other night. I bought 60 days of sub time back in february and through super containers and completing collections I've manage to extend it until at least the middle of July so far.
>>644796>>644864okay I will persist.>just use radarthis seems like a trap early game in a CL, unless the map has lots of island cover, it just means I'm going to be deleted especially with the 5km turning circle
>>644543Just unlocked T-22 and it’s become my new comfy boat. Everything I’ve read says it’s garbage but I’ve had two 3-kill matches back to back>>645042Turn on National Voiceovers + in settings I think
I returned to give this shit another try. Last time I played was the closed beta and some time after release. All I got for this was an empty account with a CBT flag and a t4 jap dd, a t4 American bb and a t3 russian cl. I've started going down to bismark but as a noob and solo player I guess I should go for something else? Any suggestions for fun. I remember playing jap carriers way back but looks like cv has changed. I remember getting a warspite premium back in the day as a gift but looks like I did not get it now as my progress from back then has been completely wiped.What I'm trying to drunkenly ask is what line and nation to for to get my feet wet with fun as I relearn this game. Both dd and cv seems fun but I'm open for suggestions as a clueless boomer.
>>645226name your server so you can get another recruit link to get you some shit line wise: brit dds, pan-eu dds, ita. cruisers
>>645256I am on EU. I'd have to make a new account for recruit link I guess? I still have 17500 doubloons which I believe is compensation for all my lost shit from decade+ ago. I honestly did not expect to start from scratch when returning to this game.
>>645263recruit link also works as long as you havent played a match also above the shitcord servers had been posted if you wanna be able to ask quick questions and dont feel like waiting here till someone checks the thread
>>645263Honestly get in touch with anyone from 2DQT (server was posted here) so you can get proper help if needed. HOTEL was the to go clan on EU from here but it pretty much turned into a handful of members that play these days the game. Still recommend joining their server also cause maybe one of their vets replies to a question or so. As >>645256said thats pretty much what you wanna pick for dds.
>>645276I'll keep that in mind thanks. I don't mind the slow pace here as I'm stuck with 4 nightshifts and I usually just sleep between them.>>645298Thanks to you and >>645256 for dd suggestions. How about cv's? There was only American and Japanese last I played but now there are no fighters that I saw, only as consumable.
i just started to play again it is fun my guys
>>645335Low tier aka till t6 Germans, above for Team play Burgers and for pure dmg Russians - stay away from japs at t10 (just not meta anymore or you have to be rly rly good - till t8 tho perfectly fine to try out) but whatever you do don’t go with Germans higher then 8
>WR finally dipped lower than 50%
>>645528how...honestly if you are a solo shitter you deserve it, stop being autistic and play with ppl>>645335reminder that if you decide to stay playing even if its only on/off join a clan for the bonuses at least
Yo schizo anon who non stop for months now spammed that new eco bonuses will screw over everyone and will be worse then the current system: Explain why sub 50% boomers get around 1.5-2 million credits per match on the test server right now, also around 20-40k free exp and 100k base exp per match if you use the bonuses correctly? How about you kill yourself?
>>645546>play with pplI have social anxiety.
>>645549its just ppl online man, dont event have to use your mic as long as you either use div chat and sit with them in a call or whateverreminder your more worth then a sub 40% boomer
Goddamn, weekend teams are so horrible, especially on high tier.
>>645547>use the bonuses correctly
Almost got Amagi, how's she? I'm worried about the lack of armor.

>360 turretsI'm cumming. Does Jut and Daring keep that?
I swear its literally impossible for me to get past rank 3 in the bronze league. I play bb's the dd's and cruisers are absolutely fucking useless, I play dd's and the cruisers and bb's decide they are dd's and try to rush, I play cruisers and suddenly dd's and bb's are scared to engage the enemy and hide in the back of the map.
ranked needs a rework
>>645855More like this playerbase needs a rework. If I wanted to make arguments for abortion this games players would be exhibit A
Do you have cursed ship that no matter what you do, you lose?
>>645645raw sewage. have fun with the vertical dispersion.
>>645645its pretty good if it hasn't changed since I last played it in closed beta
>>645872Venezia
Yamato or Schlieffen for first tier 10 BB? I'm up to tier 7 on both lines.
>>645872you're shooting the wrong targets. farming bbs doesn't win a game
>>645872KitakazeEverybody hypes it up but it just feels like a cruiser/waste of a dd slot
>>645853If you don't get out of bronze in the first 2 sprints you're fucked
>>645872I average over 60% in BBs but whenever I pick Thunderer my team suicides in 5 minutes. The most OP BB in the game and I can't even get 50%.

>>646915>spending any money on games ever

>>647396>Konichiwa, Hitler-sama.
>>647403Post your t10 botes
>>647490Napoli then Yamato. Napoli I am now slowly recovering since I played more tech tree cruisers and learned to position better. Yamato I am scared to touch now for fear of having abysmal stats. even in the couple games where I had 150k+ dmg and successfully held or pushed a flank, they've all been losses and most of them total within a short span of time as the other flank collapses or all dds die in first few mins
>grinding the gj maerker>the experience
>>639741It used to be mandatory to run that but apparently there was a rework so the guns won't just nonpen anything thicker than a yugumo.
>>647511Those are worst botes to even try to carry a game, Yamato is like most BBs stays at back and mostly is irrelevant to the battle, napoli is only good for competitive, you have zero firepower, just tankiness. Try them in divs for better results not dependent on rng matchmaking>>647513>Worst dd line in gameFor what purpose?
interesting
>garbage, unfun stomp>enemy says "gg">report him>report his divmateEat shit fag
>>647511Yamato is pretty hard to carry with due to bad traverse and mobility. But make an effort to play close to the front. I don't win a shitload when I solo queue but I always average pretty high damage and have a decent impact. Just don't sit back and snipe from 20km out. At like 10-15km you cit pretty much everything.
>>647598>>647810thank you. I want to finish either the daring or shima line for solo play and I'm gonna leave the yamato and napoli unless my couple div mates are online

>>648239How do you fake that?
>>648239From R*ddit. It seems they don't want people from ASIA to move for some reasons.
>>648241you can just fake them, you think WG rly has the option to check every single document?
>>648265to be fair non wants the ASIA meta over here so lmao
>>648273More like the ASIA server would be a ghost town if they allow people to move out that easily. Nobody with half a brain want to play on ASIA server, not even Asians.
Zieten is much better than I thought. You really can't judge a ship by its looks.
this game brings only misery. I feel worse after playing than before in almost all sessions
>>648733Yet we can't stop playing it.
Should I make the new thread here or on >>>/vg/? It's pretty much a general at this point.
>>648763We will get slid within an hour, retard. Why do you think this board exists?
>>648763Wait until this thread died before making a new thread. And don't put "edition" in the OP
>>648763why even make a new thread, it’s 2-3 anons from NA and beside 1-2 from EU who aren’t on one of the shitcord servers the rest literally discusses stuff with active players in their clans
>yes, goy, come to discord and forget 4chinz, he he hewhat if you kysed instead?
>>648782>keep the threads alive so i can stay the solo shitter i am, can stay the sperg who is to schizo to talk directly to players who are either as good as yourself or better sorry anon but everyone on here who plays the game "properly" will not bother discussing anything on /vm/ or back then /vg/ when half the players are either not playing the game anymore and baiting the shit out of new anons or the guys who play the game do not bother at all checking into the threads anymore (cause half the time its a waste of time)reminder that for months there was not a single thread on any board and somehow the discord servers were the only source for proper questions/discussions but muh discord bad!hope you enjoy discussing shit with anyone from here where you don´t even know if they are a sub 45 or 50 WR subhuman

what are you even doing here then?

>>648806>"you" single termYou mean 90% from here? Eh honestly laugh at the shitty recommendations some of you give in terms of ship lines, shitpost here so the servers stays clean, surprised that even on the forum coop schizos have more idea how to play the game then some of you. Just a few reasons why most have a quick look into these threads when there is nothing going on either of the servers.Imagine thinking anyone would come on here to discuss ships while not knowing the stats of the discussion participants kek.
>>648810Better a circlejerking homo then some incel who has zero social interaction beside on lmao this side.
>muh social interactionur a fucking clown
>>648810anons like you make me always cringe, the fact that you guys protect 4chink like some cult is just pathetic"oh no i gona call out someone for their contacts they made on this page while i sit alone every day infront of the pc"nigga wake up, that wasn´t an insult towards anyone beside yourself...oh well time to go back to circlejerking and play some games with actual people while you are coping right now all alone

>>648841careful anon, you might get ganked by the anons that take pride in being lonely you better be sorry or otherwise they call you a clown for having a pretty normal social life compared to theirs fucking schizos man kekimagine not discussing right now on discord with your pals the next patch and the thread
>>648862not only that, but you hate yourself so much that you think not reducing the amount of bad players on your team is the right thing to doi feel sorry for you anon-kun
>>648862>mp game >decide to play alone when others use the possibility to have an slight advantage over you>thinking your not schizophrenic by deciding to stay solohuh

god i love being a circlejerk homo and a clown if this means to not be a complete shut in neet
>>648873This is so sad. So how many boomers lost your match today?
What is Ranked mode like? I want steel and free doubloons but kinda scared.
>literal inability to comprehend that some people enjoy playing solo>attack anyone who doesn't subscribe to your muh team philosophy
>>648879depends on the ratingif you start with bronze you gona be suprised how many worse players there are compared to yourself honestly as long as you dont try to go for silver/gold just give it a try>>648880i mean they aren´t wrong tho with what they say, its a team game to begin with or are you a coop only solo player anon?
>>648882>its a team game to begin withNo it isn't. Divs are optional.
Should I get Salem for coal? On one hand it's pretty much a clone of Des Moines with is a tech tree ship you can get for free, on the other hand Des Moines is a good ship so a premium version that can make money while having fun sounds like a good deal.What do?
>>648883holy shit your the dumbest nigger in this thread or? as long as its not 1v1 its a team game you fucking subhuman>divs are optionalbeing a antisocial no lifer like you is also optional
>>648883you sound like a cuck ngl and i honestly think non would wanna play with you to begin with with the absolute shitter attitude you got divs = bad what’s next? divs are like cheating against solo players?
I said divs are optional, retard.
>>648889You get forced div´d by playing in or without one. And this is the perfect example why some of you don´t wanna be on a server cause you fear that everyone would make fun out of retard comments like this one. Haha funny number will protect me from evil div abusers!
>>648890>You get forced div´d>Haha funny number will protect me from evil div abusers!meds?
>>648883>>648889>>648891solo shitter equal to play4fun boomers question if you div up with anyone would you be less of a miserable subhuman or not?
>fun badkys>if you div upI don't play divs for the reasons stated in >>648873
>>648891Sorry but there is nothing worse then playing wows alone, wows itself is shit but not playing with someone you know is just schizo tier. Before you talk about meds why don´t you take yours to begin with? The new low for even /vm/ threads must be shitters like you trying to make solo play the "proper way of playing this game". Lmao muh >Divs are optional.
And yet solo randoms are the main metric in wows. Curious, isn't it? :)
>>648894>reasons stated>shut in neet, has no friends even online, asperger’s that won’t allow interaction with other people i am glad that most anons didn’t choose the solo way of playing like you do and stick to the chad lifestyle of playing in a div, at least you can suffer together >divs are optional
>>648896says who?
>>648896ah yes truly spoken like a flamuu watcher
>discord bad>playing in divs is not the way of playing wows>solo WR is the only thing that mattersWhats next?
>>648885Dont do it, you are wasting your coal. Salem is worse than DM for randos because of shit radar. Only place it has is in comp. Even at that place salem is questionable choice.>>648896By stat padders maybe, written from my hard to use smaland/ragnar/kamikaze stat pad account
>>648907>By stat padders maybeSo all of you? You seem to worship WR a lot.
>>648907>written from my hard to use smaland/ragnar/kamikaze stat pad accountbased but you forgot Desmo and Smol 10k games played each players also
>>648909If you have below 50 WR in any class other than DD you are a shitter who is a detriment to your team, if you are the DD you have to do way better than that. Otherwise stats dont matter much
>>648913this
>insults everyone's WR whenever he needs his "i win argument" button>ackhually stats no matter haha xdd
>>648926>insults every non solo player>spergs at everyone for hours

t-thank you, WG
Almost got enough coal for tier x ship, should I get Napoli or Yoshino? I mainly play random.
>>649114Those two ships plau very differently
>>649114If these are the only options, Napoli.
Do you ever get anything good from supercontainer?
>>649280I got 15k coal once but besides that no it only insults me
>>649280Perth and Ark Royal
>>649114None of these, yoshitno is a bad ship, napoli is only useful for competitive. Look for other options.>captcha YAYDDThere you go, get a DD with it, gods have chosen. Black is gonna be available for coal soon.
>>649314He said good
>>649280I got Champagne and Okhotnik, they're not "good", but really fun to play.
>>649314Perth is funArk Royal is ok for some ops
>>649321DDs are fun but I'm really not good with them.What about Salem or Moskva?
>>649383>>649321Fuck it, maybe I'll just get the Sherman.
>>649280I got an Aigle I never play and some coal.
>>649280Last couple of supercontainers I've gotten 1000 doubloons, 2 weeks premium time, x50 XP camo's and 15k coal
>>649385Sherman's are fucking insane. I've seen more then a few people that just come to a stop, alt tab and not even bother trying to fight back once one of those little shits gets the drop on them.
>>648971that was painless, thanks fren!
>>649407It looks ridiculously strong. I'm afraid WG might remove it from the armory in the near future.
>>648971>actually workedDang. How often do these literally who sites get codes?
My hobby?Pinging Hallands to set a smokescreen
>>649415New premium ships aren't immune to nerfs, there's no need to remove them anymore.
Hmm, I might start grinding French BB line. How are they?
>>649446Fun
>>649446Also skip T4-5 becasue they are slow as shit.

Any tier 9 coal ship worth getting?
I gotta stop playing in the mornings when all the Chinese are on because I can't even tell them how fucking stupid they are over chat.Hard to believe that these are the highest average IQ people.
>>649474Kearsarge is very strong if you know how to play it. Neustrashimy and Black (sold for coal starting next patch) are straight up OP, but very expensive.
I bought movska. What am I in for
>>649506Sink
>>649506Sitting behind islands
>>649506Being a radar bot that's somewhat hard to kill for a cruiser. Still somewhat relevant in competitive because Petro is banned.
>>649446The Richelieu is my favorite battleship. Its got good speed, hits hard and can really give retards that can't aim in ranked and random battles a lot trouble. Only annoying thing is that some times shell dispersion can be all over the place to the point you wouldn't be able to hit an FDG if it was taped to the end of your gun barrels.
>>649674I'm going through the french line now. What do you fit to the Richie? Acceleration or damage control?
>>649683Damage control because I like to tank if I can and the Richi comes with speed boost which I used for acceleration.
my win rate just keeps going down. barely above 48% now. should just uninstall
Man the Ranger is such a breath of fresh air after the shitfest that was the Langley
>>649860if you lose wr that can be just unlucky teams but if your PR is like below green it’s literally you playing bad (talking only recent games)
>>649937its been both. my pr is going down and my wr too. honestly I'm really trying and I've progressively learnt more about the game, positioning, other ships etc. just seems like I'm stuck being terrible. I have good games and outplay people here and there but I have no consistency and I'm just getting more and more disheartened
>>649940You don't need to learn complex things like positioning to be average, focus on hitting targets and not dying early. How many battles do you have?
>Black costs 60k coal more than Marceau while being only T9
>>649986thanks for showing everyone how you know fuck all about the game, steel ships that got pulled and re-released as coal ships always had a price increase (neustra and flint)
>>650012Not a justification.
>>649480where do you find out what the new ships in the coal rotation will be?
>>650028Usually devblogs. I was wrong though, Black was just put out for coal today.
>>649964about 700 now
>>650213That's very low, I consider anyone under 1500 to be a new player and I don't complain about their stats. As long as you don't use money to jump to tiers you can't handle, you're good, just learn at your own pace.
>>650218I changed to dds this morning and I'm having so much more fun. feel like the games I lost were my mistakes and vice versa. 8 wins to 3 losses and 70k avg dmg on my lightning.
>blackHey guys remember when Belfast was removed becasue smoke radar was broken as shit? Haha.
>>650421Belfast was literally a t8 at t7
I fought a match the other day with two of the new ships, St Vincent and something else, and anyways my team threw the match because of two faggots getting tunnel vision to kill them.One literally ignored a Schlieffen in his face melting his superstructure just to shoot at a guy kiting on the edge of the map.At least I'm very closet to unlocking the Elbing today finally.
I figured out why I really hate IzumoThat 3rd turret turns the opposite direction
I think that "protect the convoy" should be in big red flashing letters so it gets the message across properly.
>>650856Doesnt matter, the odds are hilariously stacked against the convoy defenders to the point trying to defend some convoy lines are just suicide lane. Wg fucked up with the balance of this mode.
Does the AL Azuma commander have any improved skills like the lesser coal commanders or is it literally just a big tiddy jpeg?
>>650952Only human commanders can have improved skills.
