Arcus_Aesopi Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 So I thought you couldn't get dev struck from 100%... I guess one can. He hit the front gun and bow... with 6 AP citadels? I only get to overpen but these guys... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snargfargle Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 You can definitely get Dev Struck from 100% hitpoints. It's detonations that require you to first be on 75% or less health. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he shot you fore-to-aft, the shells would have had more than enough time to arm and go off in your citadel. I gutted a Smolensk like that with my Thunderer once; put a couple of AP shells through his bow and blew his citadel out. If he'd hit you broadside, you might have survived with overpens. I say might because I don't know what the Lauria's fuze timing is like. If it's short like RN cruiser AP, you'd have been screwed any way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are merrily sailing around in a full-health cruiser and then suddenly it's "gg" for you. That's why I tend to play battleships more than cruisers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It typically stuns me so it takes me a couple of seconds to realize it's game over. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnderTheRadarAgain Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Running along full speed to position behind an island, nobody spotting anyone else. 100% empty minimap. Suddenly [spotted] pops up followed by [6] and then 3 seconds later as you desperately try to change course [BOOM] heaadddsshhooottttttt!!!!!!! Also, start of match, red team Alsace is spotted by CV, so target Alsace and fire all 6 Musashi 460mm guns. [First Blood] [Devstrike] 4 Citadel ribbons 6 hit ribbons. Red teams Donskoi rapidly sinks below the waves. None of my shells aimed at Alsace hit said Alsace. 100% unspotted Donskoi on the other hand. 🤣 I live for those moments.
