Itwastuesday Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Khaba is one of the most fun boats when you just get to do khaba things. Shoot everything constantly while dodging shells from angry people. Less fun when you're the only triangle on flank and the air is full of brrrrrr sounds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's very very tanky and with that heal buff she's even better. Very happy I got her. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger issue I find isn't with enemy DDs, it's with your own teams expectations of what a high visibility DD is and isn't capable of. I find it way worse on NA, constantly whining team mates wanting me in Delny/Tashkent etc to go and spot the Daring/Kitakaze/Black/Groningen etc. "Noob DD spot cap" 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSchoolGaming_Youtube Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Im not sure but I think the legendary module is somewhat mandatory for her to be strong these days (was a while since I played her). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you'd be surprised how easily you can bully a flank from 12 - 13.5 kms, reduce the support for enemy DDs and hope your team isn't clueless.

It's more longer ranged firepower vs. worse consumables and iirc inability to buff rudder further. I always run it but I can see why someone wouldn't. 2 hours ago, Nautic_Hunt said: The bigger issue I find isn't with enemy DDs, it's with your own teams expectations of what a high visibility DD is and isn't capable of.

In 2v2 triangle engagements Khabarovsk is helpful with it's great ballistics, alone it's like being down a destroyer. The yoshinos and kurfursts can't or won't fill in for that lost ability.

It does destroyer things, it just needs some nouse and timing when you're doing it. I often cap in Khaba, I am usually out in front if I'm a sole DD. Sometimes when I'm spotted I'll just head straight on in and force the engagement, depending on what I expect is spotting me and what my own SA tells me. Only rarely do I really get punished for timely aggression. Edited May 13 by Nautic_Hunt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote https://www.oed.com › dictionary › nouse_v nouse, v. meanings, etymology and more - Oxford English Dictionary Nouse is a verb that means to nourish or feed something or someone. It is formed by conversion of the noun nous, which means nourishing in Old English. It is now obsolete and last recorded around the 1850s. Other definitions were available from other sources, but they did not fit the context in which you used the word "nouse". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gameplay is just shoot at everything all the time and make the enemy waste shots on you. Just gave it a whirl and completed some old campaign task of tank 1.5 million in destroyer in a single battle.

I use the same Captain for Udaloi and it works well on both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montrala Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Khaba can be good in Ranked to run at red DDs. Most of them have no idea what they are fighting against and thing that Khaba is just another DD. It is not by any stretch of imagination optimal choice for Ranked, but fun nevertheless 🙂 BTW In this case legendary mod is not best choice. Legmod is much better for farming BBs in Randoms.
