Andrewbassg Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Have some dubs lying around and was wondering....... Have a fair amount of T7's buut ..... she has radar. And a bit better range than Flint. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfswetpaws Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 I have yet to regret having the Atlanta in my Port. The "summer / palm-tree" camouflage looks wonderful on her, too, in my opinion. (I earned the camo during a summer event a few years ago.) For main-gun hits and setting fires mission tasks, she's great. Given her light cruiser hull, fast-firing guns, some torpedoes and her consumables, she's a versatile 'bote. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoW_ Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 The Tier VII tech tree US light cruiser is more than sufficient for job. Unless one is looking to grind credits, then premium will be a better return. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HamptonRoads Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 I found Fiji adequate for the Utah Beach operation, but Atlanta is still a nice addition (but not absolutely necessary for the op.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevermore135 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 8 hours ago, Andrewbassg said: And a bit better range than Flint. The extra range Atlanta has over Flint is a bit of a situational advantage considering the shell arcs. I would argue the more relevant advantage (at least regarding gunnery) is the higher DPM (the extra two barrels per side and the faster reload). As to whether it is worth picking up solely for the event… as someone who usually plays the PTS regularly, I find it hard to justify spending real money/doubloons on tier VII or tier V ships because of the premium containers available in the Armory for community tokens. I have all the available tier five ships and once I get WV in the dockyard will have all the tier VIIs, but I can count the ones I paid for on one hand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewbassg Posted April 29 Author Share Posted April 29 (edited) Thanks for the responses. A bit of disclosure These are the T7 ships (cruisers) which I have. So its not like I need her, buuut...... I don't have her. If you understand what I mean..... 4 hours ago, MrWastee said: why for event?! pvp baby ... must have for anyone who's into cl's. in b4 "meta". lol. IF we click, obviously will use her elsewhere 🙂 it is a sorta excuse.. For PvP I reach for Weimar, or Schors or Gorizia, depending on the mode. 4 hours ago, Aethervox said: Since I'm strictly FTP (due entirely to what Wedgie has done (& not done), I save my doubloons on both EU & NA for some premium that I might buy in future.

At the end of the day, only you can really say if it's worth or not. I have her B version and it's a strong ship for sure, but definitely needs above average aim to succeed with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was referring to Brawls or Ranked, not really playing randoms, unless mission or Naval battles and then T8+ Gorizia was/is a beast in reduced like 3v3 modes .In Ranked on certain map layouts deemed Shchors a better choice over Weimar, because of her range, which is contrary to the "current" "rush-in meta" (better called 404 error, lulz) giving time to stayin alive. Since cruisers got frakked by the consecutive buffs to babbies, I prefer to keep a bit of distance from em. I mean..... not like Cl's were particularly survivable under or ~10 km' s anyhow, buut..... the pain is real. I suspect that Lanta is all about getting close to caps , radaring 'em lolibotes and then sending 'em to Davy Jones. I mean in PvP, so I'm curious about her efficiency in this event. I'm mildly OCD about using the most efficient ships, in the most efficient ways, lolz .... Edited April 30 by Andrewbassg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tfcas119 Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Having played the op on PTS, Atlanta is probably one of the best cruisers for the event. Although I'm not really sure getting Atlanta just to farm a temporary op for 4wks would be a great use of doubloons though, especially if you already have Flint or Boise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
