i also start german and russian cruiser because now have x3 exp and premium day

now i have german tier 5 and russian tier 4
i'm planning to keep german at tier 5 and russian go all way until tier 7 or more

german tier 5 fast reload, long range, and 3 guns per turret... easy to get a lot of ribbons
russian, i only at tier 4, from the number inside the game, it seems tier 5 will be slow reload, tier 7 fast reload
for german, tier 7 seems slower reload than tier 5

it seems russian from big gun go to small gun, while other countries from small gun go to big gun
(i also found this feature in world of tanks as well, so maybe it's their history...)



for dd, i have once been shoot non stop from us dd while i at ARP myoko, probably tier 7 dd
only saw the shell coming to me, but did not saw the ship
somehow make me want to try US dd too

and if i'm not mistaken, i think so far the fastest reload for main gun in this game probably is tier x US DD

not sure how russian dd if compare with others

Well USN DD basically a gunboat, but if the range more than 12KM basically you can't hit anything. Tried with gearing in PT server, couldn't hit even a Yamato more than 12KM lolz , Because of the high shell arc and slow shell velocity, but if you knife fight, USN DD is dangerous.

Had my first team battle with some LYN kakis yesterday. Happy to report that we did well. The team needs to play 5 battles to qualify for appearing in WoWs team stats list.

Hentam only

Not bad for hentam only. Hopefully, it was not "beginner's luck"or fluke that we won that battle. I think we did relatively well with the mix of ships in the team. Saipan definitely helped especially with her fast planes, getting to the cap points ahead of the DD. My thoughts for optimum mix:

1 x CV
2 x DD
4 x mix of BB and CA/CL

We should create a chat for this LYN team and occasionally frap together

Indeed the Saipan and 2 DD helped scout and secure the cap which gave us most advantages early game.

what if create any message app if so that can ask who want join team battle?

Create whatsapp lo.

Whoever want play, message inside and if got fate, ma play together lo?

Max 1 CV and 2 BB per team

Actually in a game later it(Saipan fighters) was overpowered by Ranger fighters

i see...

even with fast reload, but if shell move slow, long range will be very difficult
(i think i can assume this will be like KV-2 shoot long range in WOT )

but in close range, their gun is better than IJN dd
i think probably all other countries dd gun is faster reload and longer range than IJN dd


i wonder is russian DD also have this problem as well?
not really sure about the russian DD, i only know their torpedo short range, probably about the same/worse than US DD...

No mood to play anymore this evening, losing streak.

Anyway, RU shells are between US and German ie US shells are sub-orbital while German are more linear, at least from what I have observed of the cruisers

me too, tonight not good keep losing

also no cv to help, dd keep invisi-fire at my team bb i can't do anything but to see them die

well well, try to master the art of DDing. capping base is the key to win. and seem like you cant count on other people to cap, you yourself have to cap and dd is the safest way to cap. sad but that is the style of the game now, most of my game won is by achieving 1000 point instead of killing all enemies

on the us dd while the shell is slow the reload is so fast correcting the aim in 3 to 4 salvos wont even take a minute!
and since the shell went up so high it will hit the deck and superstructure causing damage most of the time.
comparing it to the FV-304 of batchat arty is more accurate. you will hit if you properly correct it.

IJN dd gun is actually strong and accurate, only that it slow to turn and slow to load. and 8 km range is not that short when the detection is 6 km, could always have chance to deal last hit to badly injured enemy

russian DD trait is very long range gun more than atlanta, very strong AP shell could get constant citadel against cruiser, and very poor concealment that pretty much comparable to atago.
the shell velocity is faster than us so the shell trajectory is flatter compared to us, this mean that russian dd gun is easier to aim and hit but also mean the shell will easily bounced off if the shell hit angled surface

Russian DD has accurate guns, flattest shell arc among 3 countries. Probably be like USN DD = Machine Gun, IJN DD = Shotgun, Russian DD = Rifle. lol

Same see this, wanna cry lol. I am not bad actually, just MM keep fkin with me.

waa..losing streak and no credit to repair ur yamato..this is sad

Go play tirpitz lah for a while
Actually to cushion the T10 repair cost, maybe can do something like,
1. get enough credits to funds for 2 times the full repair cost for the T10,
2. then only play the T10 ship. Once the losses nearing the 2 times full repair cost, stop playing the T10 and play other ships, preferably premium ships
3. repeat step 1
Of course if you are willing to spend real money, 1 doubloons = 1500 credits

i thought my losing streak is bad

and double worst for you credit also not enough

at least in T6 i lost still earn some credits

thanks for sharing
if it is similar to FV-304 than it's good, much better than KV-2 shoot long range

last time it was simple, DD only US or IJN, guns or torpedoes

thanks again for sharing
it seems in DD, russian gun damage will be best, US gun best in reload time, IJN will be somewhere middle of them
(i think turret rotation probably US the best also)

but i almost forgot one thing, if i'm not mistaken, russian DD very bad concealment
