In the end, what decided it was that one of his talents is a partial heal) from spotting three enemies) and Schlieffen already has one, whereas the ship I eventually put him in - Z-52 - doesn't, and could use this talent to greater effect.

Estaca_de_Bares Posted October 6 Posted October 6 Fifth time that my Shimakaze goes beyond 3k BXP. Also uploaded to replayswows.com (link in the spoiler): Spoiler https://replayswows.com/replay/208423 Got +3 karma for a net +2 in today's session. My guess is that the report, which happened on the battle before this one, came from the red Svea + Plymouth + Cassard division since I sank the first one for First Blood and also did the spotting that killed the second one. If they thought they would survive until the cyclone kicked in, they were sorely mistaken. Salute. 3
OT2_2 Posted October 7 Posted October 7 The new brawling season started, and I have been exclusively using Schlieffen so far. She doesn't disappoint in the role where she is starring. The best games are usually losses, at least in my case. The better I play the more I tend to loose. 🫢 Here is an exception where I succeeded, but with much less dmg than in other battles. As you might see and recognize did I cap and kill almost single handedly. 20241007_104914_PGSB210-Schlieffen_47_Sleeping_Giant.wowsreplay 1
OldSchoolGaming_Youtube Posted October 7 Posted October 7 "First game of the day" in Missouri seems to always be a good one, per usual not so stellar team tho. Trying to carry T10´s in a T9 is getting really old. I think this might be our CV guys first ever match in a CV. Also. Suddenly a wild Maltese Knight in his brand-new Tennessee appeared......... 1
OldSchoolGaming_Youtube Posted October 7 Posted October 7 Do you actually know how many "tickle"-torps you need to land in a Jäger to get 220 000 Damage? ............... 39 outa do it! .............. that's almost 5 special triggers of Jerzy´s talents btw ...... I dont even know how a TOP TIER Yamato only gets 500 Base XP against T8-9´s. 2

Viridem Posted October 8 Posted October 8 I love bringing Kitakami in airship escort. With all the ships grouped up, you can deal some serious damage. If you can survive long enough. I put the replay and other screenshots here. 5
ArIskandir Posted October 8 Posted October 8 Feels good when one of the reds takes the time to write a compliment instead of just +1 😁 6

OldSchoolGaming_Youtube Posted October 8 Posted October 8 (edited) It starts to get really tired some to try and carry T10 and SuperShits players in a T9 ...... every match... I just realized, that in this game from yesterday I was actually Top scorer in the whole match even tho I was on the losing side...... As I said, its starting to get very old...

Kratbowl Posted October 8 Posted October 8 First game of the day and a paradigm shift on Hindenburg 😃 Instead of a "sudden kraken at the end of the month" he gave it to us, but at the beginning. It didn't look like a win until the very end, but Hindenburg proved once again that it is one of the best armored t10-cruisers. 1
OldSchoolGaming_Youtube Posted October 8 Posted October 8 Shotgunning BBs in GATO is still very much alive, you just do it from outside 3 km. I launched these 6 Nukes from 3.2 km at periscope and the poor Marlboro didn't have a clue I was even there. From 77 000 HP to Zero in ONE second. Very balanced... and the token 2000 Base XP 2 1

I think we all know RNGesus better that we ever hoped and if I pulled of that shot at 3 km with a BB I can ensure you that even tho I might get some cits and kill the enemy BB im pretty sure I also ... even at that range ... would get one shell falling into water, 3 shells just overpenning ... something... But still, going back to the original post. You still need to survive all the focus fire as a BB to even get that close and the enemy BB will probably have same shot at you, so its down to who fires first. So, None of this is really comparable to the situations of shotgunning you can enjoy multiple times in a game with GATO.

Not even a DD yolo-ing around an island? Or planes from two CV's performing a cross-drop of torpedoes? (Granted, a healthy BB might survive the cross-drop of aerial torpedoes.) Hildebrand's aerial bombs can be seen approaching from several kilometers away. A player who is paying attention has a fighting-chance, but not a guarantee, to evade the drop, I feel.
Frostbow Posted October 9 Posted October 9 My greatest gaming achievement today has been playing Operations exclusively since Update 13.8 went live. It marks the longest—33 consecutive days—that I've continuously played a single mode. And it was fun! I harvested a lot of Ray achievements, competed with fellow players for the top Base XP score, watched my team fall one after another because they did not know how to play Aegis, scored 94 torpedo hits in a single Op, scored 2508 Base XP solo, scored 720K damage with my lighthouse Henri, etc. etc. etc. I eventually got bored, and realizing that I did not want to be burned out, I went back to PVP. I tried Brawls and my first win was another 'achievement'. This marks the first time I scored at least 2,000 Base XP (2,089) in Brawls. 1

GATO has immunity to planes, skill that warns about radar and hydro and consumables to warn about other Subs and DDs 6 hours ago, Wolfswetpaws said: Hildebrand's aerial bombs can be seen approaching from several kilometers away.

Im not really sure why you tryharding to sell me on GATO just being like a DD ... or a BB....? Ive been mainly playing DDs for 9 years, so I have a pretty solid background on what they face and what BS they have to deal with .... Im also a pretty decent Sub player. So I know what I can do in a GATO and I do know what any of all my DDs can and cant do.

I'm sure you're comfortable in saying that, based upon your experiences. ^^^^ And I don't dismiss your personal experiences. They're valid, especially for you. It's merely that I feel that the Gato is sinkable, like any other ship. It's merely a question of how well the Gato is played, compared with how well other players play their ships.
