SoshiSone Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 Games like this just make me wonder... I kick ass to the tune of a whopping 2987 points of damage. and find myself in fifth place on my team. To be fair, I did spend a good bit of time maneuvering into a flank protection position for a group of friendlies that seemed to be doing their thing to great effect. There was a wily DD player out there, and I decided I'd lend a hand. DD was stalking our first place player. He was already well aware of a DD on his flank, but the DD was using terrain and distance in a cat and mouse game. DD was setting up for a flank attack. DD smoked up before the BB cleared on the far side of terrain with the idea to unleashing a torp salvo from smoke. DD didn't know I was there as I'd been quiet for some time getting into position. The same terrain screening DD from BB was screening me from the DD. I lit him up thinking that I would have a fight on my hands as I rounded the corner. T10 DDs can whoop up on my little T8 CL. Oh my...Wisconsin let loose with a full broadside for instant DS. They say Wisconsin has some of the best dispersion...and it showed here. BB gave me a "thank you" for the light. I felt really good about that one. All in a day's work for Tiger. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When cursing the XP calculator, keep in mind that in Soshi's game he was heavily bottom tier. I don't know what WG's XP formula is, but doing things against two tiers higher DOES have a significant impact. @SoshiSone showed the main post battle page and team page...it would be interesting to see the detailed page to get a bigger picture on how his seemingly meager contribution doesn't tell the whole story. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know. My comment was intended as a lighthearted joke, a jest, nothing serious🙂 . Just played that match and then I read this thread and was sort of fitting.....

majmac Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 In chat during a battle the other day, I remonstrated with one of our players who brought a Tiger '59 into battle. I said s/he was intentionally griefing us! 🙂 S/he was not impressed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still wish I could encounter T11 Super BBs in my Asashio since it craps on T10´s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ensign Cthulhu Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 (edited) The negligible damage and minimal plane kills offer a valuable near-negative control against which to rank all the other things you did. I would venture to suggest that some of your colleagues near the bottom of that list might have exploded in rage if they knew how little damage you had done. Not everyone has the calmness to ask themselves "Now what exactly did he do to get that much XP out of so little apparent work?"

Only thing I can figure is most of that spotting damage was DDs. 16 hours ago, majmac said: In chat during a battle the other day, I remonstrated with one of our players who brought a Tiger '59 into battle.

But that's mainly because I seldom find anyone who understands it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
