Grinding what?  Anything specific?
Credits?  FreeXP?  A tech-tree line?

[SunkCostFallacy]

Most know what I'm going to say ... The Salem. All hail the Queen of Dakka!

I just checked and I currently have 22202 matches in her. Perhaps just a tad excessive

In terms of grinding, she is absolutely my go-to. As a premium she brings excellent rewards for Credits, FreeXP, training up commanders, etc.

Boise and Missouri.

Missouri.

[hipcanuck]

Depending on what I need to do and what tier I need to do it in...

Missouri

Salem

Alaska

Kaga

Haida, perhaps Cossack but I just recently found it in a crate so the jury is still out on that one.

All depends on what I am "grinding for"?

I have a very large fleet (606 ships currently). I have every single nation and line in game done to T10 and hundreds of Premium ships. I don't need to "grind" lines unless a new one comes out (and then you use those ships obviously). My "grind" these days is events and missions.  

I am a Co-op main (45,729 games vs just 1783 Random battles) so my grinding is done there. For events and missions, I select the ship(s) from my fleet best suited to complete the task. That varies based on what the task is and if it has specific aspects such as nation, ship type, tier, and even a specific ship. I pick what I feel lets me do the mission the fastest and easiest. If I am forced to go to Randoms to do it that also plays into which ship I pick. 

The ships I enjoy playing the most aren't always the ship best suited to completing a task. I might actually pick a ship I dislike a LOT because its features and traits help me do the mission task more efficiently than a ship I enjoy playing.  

So, I can't really answer your question as asked. Too many variables. If you asked what ship is your go to for credit grinding, I would answer the OG Missouri in Co-op and for Randoms probably Roma (I have the Kobayashi perma camo/economic boost package and prefer its MM to that Missouri sees in Randoms). If you asked me what is my go to ship for setting fires I would say Smolensk in Co-op and KGV in Randoms. If I need torp hits it is Benham in Co-op and I wouldn't try to do it in Randoms. And so forth.

Akizuki and Kita because of regrinds, FDG because grinding 2 t10 battleships with no booster. Atlanta/Smolensk for fun/fire/flood missions back in the day, but Marceau and Colbert are climbing up the battles played for those categories and potential damage. 

[SoshiSone]

I don't grind anymore.

I just take it nice a slow.

[Frostbow]

I recently finished the grind to Libertad. It is a liberating feeling to finally complete a grind of a tech tree line that suits my preferences in the game. Now, I have nothing to grind (at least with those lines that I want to play), and that gives me the freedom to choose whatever ship that I want to bring to battle. 

While I can choose to regrind the Worcester line again (I've regrinded that line more than 10 times already), I'm kind of just taking it real slow and easy these days. I still have at least 101K research points and 8.4M FXP, and I might just spend it for Brennus and a few unique upgrades.

45,729 games against bots! Amazing

I'm sure someone here has at least 60,000 Co-op battles... I just forgot the name.

There's RD_59 who has logged 108,153 Co-op battles. I met the him/her once in Co-op, and from what I've seen, the account played like how any human player would.

Then there's this Co-op player with nearly 89,000 Co-op battles that really plays like a bot. I've met the account many times. Won't even reverse course after colliding with an island.

Prinz Rupperecht is my most played ship overall.

Weimar, Massachusettes, Tirpitz, Napoli have all been the most used in the last year or so. 

[Kynami]

Ehh. If we go by total match counts overall for any given ship it pretty much lands on Scharnhorst '43, Iwami, and Toulon.

If you are talking about the line of ships that has been used the most it ends up being the Gearing line over here because that is my RP reset line of choice.

The "grind" for me is playing whatever ship I am trying to advance by playing one operation to farm the first win bonus and then ignoring it until the next day. The game is a lot more fun when you just play what you want to play. 

[Capt_Kremenski]

My most played ship is Republique.

Lately I've mainly been playing Bourgogne, Napoli and Cossack.

[Ramsalot]

No matter what ships I play for specific missions and events (Colbert lighthouse build comes to bind as an absolute fastest dakka dakka for main battery hits and ribbons in general, or Marceau as the fastest one to get some of the other missions), I always come back to T9 premiums.  Missouri, Musashi, Georgia, Jean Bart, Illinois, Pommern, Alaska, Kronshtadt, Friesland, Black, Somme, all provide high quality game experience.

Hard to interpret what OP means. He has about 1K battles played from T1 - T10. I doubt english is his first language.

I don't grind anything now except if Wedgie offers a new tech tree line from T1.

I mostly play random battles.  I now random the ship I play from a number of lists of ships (also randomed). A lot of 'randoms', lol.

I have one last Campaign to complete on EU, all of them to complete on NA.

Notable #s of battles played on any particular ship are the following;

EU: Iwaki Alpha 511, Arkansas Beta 413, Hipper 352 & StL 303 plus many other ships with 100+ battles

NA: Massachusetts B (160?) (a freebie), Asashio 124 (gifted to me) & StL 104 maybe 1 other ship with 100+ battles

I'm inclined to agree (about the language).
