what a quality patch

I got the Iron Duke: what am I in for?

Getting citted by Pensacolas

What build on your captain?

qt

the usual jack dunkirk-stuff + AFT so far.

What if I don't have Jack Dunkirk?

)))))))))))))
he gives you a few better skills but thats about it
should propably have gone prevetive maintenence instead of priority target but i guess i can still fix that eventually

>should propably have gone prevetive maintenence instead of priority target
Does it get the turrets knocked out often?

its ok i guess. its kinda nice knowing that if someone aims for you but no shells come in you can be sure its a DD with torps.
so far its been working though. if i lose them too often, i can still change later

The only BB in which I have PT is the Yamato, because any sudden maneuver throws off my aim and knowing that I can keep my course even if I'm spotted is super useful. KGV turrets seem quite slow so PT might be useful in her too, although unlike Yamato she'll face much stronger ships that will disregard her armor.
I'm asking because I plan to stop on the KGV and I have a 12 unassigned points captain that I'll probably won't be able to retrain for quite some time, so I must get the build right at the first try.

Brit BBs are a bit boring desu, the Monarch sounds a little interesting at least

>10.9km detection radius for a tier 8 BB

Are there actually people who aim without the scope? How do you even hit anything?

KGV is a keeper for sure. ill see if anything past it was worth it some day

>you were complimented
y-you too!

>KGV turrets seem quite slow
Nigga pop a Dunkirk on that thing and see your turrets swing around at 5 degrees a second. You shouldn't be brawling anyway, so that's plenty fast for mid/long-range

See

Then 4.75 is still fine enough, it's only the icing on the cake really.

The skills you have on there seem fine. I would consider getting adrenaline rush next, it's a shame you don't have Jack because he makes Jack of all trades pretty damn neat (10% instead of 5% to ALL consumables). Anything that lets you use as many repair parties as possible.

>have Nelson on the team
>Nelson gets devstriked by a New Mexico
What a great ship.

Ayyyyyyy, really?

I saw that same exact scenario play out last week, kek.

>tfw only had a handful of 100k games with two t7s and 700 games played

who /shitter/ here?

You'll get there user

What tier would you put the French anti-aircraft cruiser Colbert in?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_cruiser_Colbert_(C611)

>8 × twin 127mm/54 modèle 48 AA guns
>10 × twin 57mm/60 modèle 51 AA guns

>B-B-B-BUT ITS ALL ABOUT A SKILLED PLAYER USING THE SHIP! IF A SKILLED PLAYER USES IT, ITS NOT BAD!!

Tier 6 to fuck the CVs who just unlocked manual drop.

The pastebins seem a little dated, does anybody wanna give me a quick rundown on what to expect out of the French cruisers?

Very fast and mobile. High damage, low impact HE spam. Speed boost.

The most brain-dead line of HE spammers you could ever imagine.

>its kinda nice knowing that if someone aims for you but no shells come in you can be sure its a DD with torps.
>knowing
t. shitter
A good DD won't even show up on PT unless he's firing at you.

Nothing to worry about at that stage.

To add to they carry a low number of ok torps with good range and angles. Their TX is also notable for being the only cruiser (aside from Graf Spee) that can overmatch T8-X RN CL bows.

Fuck Iron Duke.

k

...

Those guns look fairly modern
So T9 or 10

Japanese underwater ap shells when?

>bored of mindless HE spam..
>decided to try something new.
>oh look a new line
>it is line of mindless HE spam
Thanks WG

>A good DD won't even show up on PT unless he's firing at you.
Even if a DD is among the PT count the target can't know if it was a DD switching to torps when the number drops by one, or if it was just some other undetected enemy switching target.

Also, most of the idiots who rely on PT will make only a single course correction. I simply hold my second launcher and wait until they are on their new course. 30 seconds later, the first launcher is ready again

What's up with Russian bias memes? VMF ships are shit sans 3-4, and that is including 1 seaclubber, and 1 premium. (You can't get Gremy and Nicolay so they are not included)

175K damage loss, literally fuck everyone else up the arse

I heard the Budyonny is good

Forgot muh pic

Stop bluelining and contribute to the battle instead of farming damage you baBBy

Being a good ship does not mean that some mysterious bias exists

Is there even a point in trying to keep thread alive?

Is there even a point in trying to keep yourself alive?

Who knows.
At least we had botes.

Yes. If I die, I won't be able to shitpost on Internet anymore

Have you played the Moskva? Or the Kiev? Or the Khab?

As I said. 3 boats. And Kutuzov. That makes it 4.

>Conq release stats are in.
>Ship is only 0,5% higher at WR than G. K.
>Average potato is not even close to it
OP indeed

Brit BBs are the most braindead ships I've ever played

Is that good or bad?

'good HE' is a boring gimmick compared to, say, German BBs which offered exciting spearhead ships

I get this feeling that WG legitimately thinks that HE spam is fun and interesting gameplay mechanic

DA))))))))

fun and engaging comrade! )))

As a big fan of BBs, Brit BBs have convinced me to give up this game for a while

Why? Don't you like MORE HE?

All WG have to do to make British BBs balanced is nerf their concealment. Hard.

>tfw finally do good in a ship line
>its brit BBs
>tfw shitter slinging he at ships when their attention is on someone else.

What's the name of that chink who never stops sperging and thinks he's the best?

lunaticred?

Yeah that's the one. I think I just met him in a battle now. I muted him and later unmuted him and he was still raging at us. Kek. We still won so I don't know why he's yelling.

he's autistic (actual autism) but it might've been another chink, they act and behave the same. keep them muted, they love to bitch to compensate for their small brains and dicks.

DE on brit BBs, good or not? On Iron Duke currently.

Flamu BTFO yet again.

Unless you do secondary memes it is shit. 2% bonus on 40% chance is like what 5% more fires? Not worth the investment.
You are better off with something like a good old SI, or Vigilance.

They're about as modern as late Soviet guns, they're from 1948 so immediately postwar

Iron Duke is so polarizing. Some games are shit while some games are fantastic.

Well, they surely know their shit: you all have to realize how their games are specifically targeted at the average retard, the dad that after a day of work comes home and wants a bit of carefree fun and relax (the latter definition has been officially used more than once during WoT Q&A). RNG is there so everyone can have their share of luck and do something regardless of the skill, and HE is yet another dumbing down of the gameplay: just hit the superstructure, the easiest part of a ship to hit, enough times (or have RNGesus on your side) and you'll be rewarded with free damage for a minute, and maybe a kill, all without further inputs. Not to say that AP doesn't enjoy RNG and doesn't have such "a winner is you, congratulations" mechanics, but for the very least the knowledge of enemy's armor scheme and weakspots gives AP shooters an advantage and adds a layer of personal skill to the gameplay that HE simply doesn't require.
All this to say that WG know what they're doing.

Why there 2 carriers every team when I want to bully ppl leveling Brit BBs with Kaiser?

So the new BB HE meta is yet another Izumo nerf right?

Because they also want to bully people leveling bongs

You know it )))))))

>Izumo
>nerfed
You can't nerf perfection.

shit perfection lamo

shit taste lmao

No. The difference between the 'Std' and 'Mod' columns is the presence of DE. 2 pp is simply not worth it when the base fire chance is so high.

2% of 40% is 2% more fires :^)

Stats don't lie. It's the shittiest T9 BB.

>NA
noone cares

Noone's interests are extremely arcane and diverse, it seems.

shit desu.

Who here hyped up for Kii?

>Who is hyped for Amagi?
Everyone who likes Amagi, I guess. Dat AA, though.

Your picture is the wrong Amagi tho senpai

I knocked one out through right through the (25mm) stern with my Mizzou the other day.

Isn't it technically about the same height as the other IJN pagodas?
