How do you play the German DDs starting with Gaede?

Delete this, new thread is

Mostly as torpbotes that can shoot low damaging torpedoes at a fast rate, guns are not exceptional but from Z-23 onward their hydro can lead to interesting tactics.

Fuck off we're full

>making a duplicated thread to edit the OP
So you were really cancerous redditors like they said?

What makes Z-23 special in that it can do stuff Gaede and Z1 can't?

>thread was posted 7 minutes before this one

yeah, nah
you're a cunt

Better concealment, more guns, more range on hydro.
Its torpedoes are also way better.
She's still a very sluggish and long ship, Benson shits on her at close range.

I just saw last thread, is Umi actually dead?

What was Umidoori forum posts/battles ratio again?

Not sure if venting about retards and noobs is ok here but I need to somewhere.

How do you play this thing? It feels like an oversized cruiser with less agility.

>whining about noobs in a t4/5 game
like, what did you expect when half of them just started

Bongo is in a bad spot because she's been powercrept quite heavily. The best you can do is play her a bit like a kirov.

>Tell your team we win by points if they live for another minute
>They subsequently suicide 1 by 1 despite having ample room and cover to just run and hide
I don't even.

So THIS....is the power of French secondaries....

I can keep the kongo alive pretty well by skirmishing with hit and runs but even after 50-60 games with her or whatevs I still have no clue how to actually hit targets with her at any range. I actually complained about this yesterday here. Not much a BB guy but the Orion and Konig's guns handle much smoother.

go fast, angle, use your range and speed
if anything it will teach you to aim and not show broadside like a baBBie

How to drive Kongo:
1. Pick your target, this should be a more valuable ship, and one in an overextended position but one being largely ignored by your team
2. Position yourself such that you have a relatively clear path to him
3. Begin moving towards your target.
4. And this is VERY IMPORTANT. Get lit on fire
5. In caps and all chat type BURNING LOVE
6. Slide your bow into his vulnerable botepussy

>Playing Atlanta in Hermes
>Doing pretty good, decide to spend some pi day camos

T-thanks, RNG

What server does Luker-chan play on?

Still better than ending up with idiots who just slowly follow the BB and then watch as the final wave of DDs blows it up while you went out to intercept the carrier.

The Émile Bertin is surprisingly fun. Think i'll keep it even after I move up.
Haven't had a BB wreck me in Hermes yet but plenty of runs were ended by torps.

>Haven't had a BB wreck me in Hermes
Same, which is why it was so surprising. The thunderstorm front usually makes them miss and the few hits usually overpen. I thought I got detonated or something until I checked the score screen and it was like 24k damage in 2 hits.

I never found rushing the CV to work for me as a cruiser. You either get stopped by the Hipper/Eugen/Graf squad then mauled by planes since you're away from the main group, or you get torped by the three DD's on the other side of the island.

La Gal is a bit of a culture shock, but I find that once you adapt, she's a better overall boat.

The Charles Martell is the most fun boat I've ever had in 3 years of playing. Turn on your speed boost and watch every shell miss while you light everybody on fire.

>There's no sanic camo for her

>advance half-way to cap
>hopelessly shoot at stuff for 8 minutes, usually it's 3 shells land in front and 3 shells land behind
>enemy bb starts pushing through
>ram
and this is how i became a fuso

So many cruiser players give me fucking aids

That's a tiny map

Kongou Bongo is the best.

1. Start game at full speed
2.Spend game charging other ships at full speed
3. Kill everything with speed.

Seriously I find her speed and agility so much fun. I am not a great player but when I get in Kongou I usually do really well.

It's okay I have big eyes

Are you anime?

No it was an accident.

>using raped bisko camo

Yeah I use it, fucking jerry scum got what she deserved m8

Looks like BB just isn't for you, go play something else.

Just curious, is there a newer version of this image with updated ships?

>lose a consumable when you upgrade hull

HUUUUURRR GREAT FUCKING GAME WG

proships.ru/stat/ships/
Here you go user. Pick ship you are interested in, and you will see

>3x 3 consumables each worth 22500
>202500 credits per consumable crate
>is somehow equal to 3x4 flags that you would only get through specific achievements like double-strike or arsonist that aren't given in every game

>no option to change language

Is the ProShips Modpack (much) different from Aslain's, anyone know?

I think it has more crosshairs, mod that changes color of damage parts into different one, that mod that shows you player skill (I don't remember seeing those in Aslain)
You can look for yourself if you want, it has English translation.

>Bachua chuutuba is shilling wows
But why.

Gotta get that sweet weeaboo money.

who?

Weebs are the most subhuman form to walk this planet and should unironically kill themselves.

>going reverse the whole match
fuckig dumb bot

april (march) fools

When will Tioga stop falseflagging and shitposting?

that's not a bot or A.I:, it's just some annoying jap screaming into a mic and playing around with that character

no shit sherlock

Whoa, thanks, user. I knew the fitting tool thing existed but, this UI is way better.

Ah yes, the classic "I was only pretending to be retarded".

Your original post stated it was a bot/A.I.

The only one I can think of is Chapayev's spotter plane. Do you ever lose a useful one?

why are shit CVs allowed in game

Should've WASDed, silly.

>US CVs have AP bombs and more planes per squad
>IJN has more torp squads
Remind me why IJN carriers are worth bothering. Or anything IJN really.

IJN BBs are decent, only worse than bong BBs currently. Cruisers are good too.

IJN CV at higher tiers generally have more fighters and thus, better ability at air control. It's why Hakuryu and Shokaku are preferred in competitive.

Remember when CVnts tried to claim AP bombs would only fuck over german BB? Turns out they remove all CA and BB. Not to mention the 9-10k overpen dmg on DDs since its no different than eating a BB salvo full of overpens. They'll stay quiet in the hopes people still think of them as helpless CVs that need massive buffs

CVs are autists, don't believe a single word from them. They love to exegerate and blow things out of proportion while undermining and demeaning anyone who says a word that doesn't fit their narrative.

Because they actually get more than 1 figher squad. Grinding the Ranger is pure suffering.

Is it a coincidence that almost every "good" CVnt is a shitter, angry, lying crybaby?

You can say the same thing about BaBBies and DD mains. I think the only ones that don't do this shit are cruiser players, they're probably just too used to be shat on by WG

Cruiser players are known as CAutists for a reason, user.

Nice try, CAsual.

>the only ones that don't do this shit are cruiser players, they're probably just too used to be shat on by WG

hmm I wonder which class is autistically screeching and demanding buffs and killed carriers, destroyers and soon to be battleships.

ded ded ded

not as dead as all the shitty german BBs tho xD

>reasonable requests for a balanced game are autistic screeching
nice try, baBBie/CVnt

What can a DD do against a cruiser with radar?
What can a CV do against a cruiser with AA modules?

Kill yourself, autist.

cruiser players are definitely autistic as fuck

t. BB main/CVnt

why would a DD player be a BB/CV main?

Don't bother asking questions to CAutists. They're spergs for a reason, user.

You actually need to be on the spectrum to play CV or CA/CL in WoWs.

Just look at our CVnts and CAutists, can you really try and convince me this isn't the case?

Evade and kill an easier target.
Wait out the cooldown and kill the cruiser.
Spot the cruiser from outside his range and wait for the team to delete the cruiser.


>everyone who disagrees with me is an autist
haha yes ecksdee

Just unlocked Donskoi and my chepeyev style dont fits on her how should I play her?

>Evade and kill an easier target.
Are you fucking retarded, CAutist? How the fuck will a DD "evade" radar?
>Wait out the cooldown and kill the cruiser.
Because a DD has to know all of the enemy's cooldown on consumables. Fuck you, not an argument.
>Spot the cruiser from outside his range and wait for the team to delete the cruiser.
So the point you're trying to make is that DDs are supposed to spot enemy ships and do nothing else? Not an argument, fuck off.

Not a single argument, really makes me think here.

sup Anusmati?

>anumati
>DD player

Do you have brain problems, CAutist?

Are you ok, Lunatic?

Always angle away to escape before you engage an enemy. Even slowly backing up is preferable as long as you can quickly escape whenever you're getting shot by BBs. Her gun angles are good enough for kiting away. Also, never be the first one to engage. Let the other ships take the heat first before opening up.

I usually play lower tiers (4-6) but lately there have been many matches against parties of rank 1 players in those tiers. Really fun when half your team doesn't even have proper commander points.
Are you also such autists to do that?

There's nothing wrong with playing low tiers with friends.

I am HP_Lovesauce.

Kill yourself HP lovesauce

Faggot.

Stop being delusional and paranoid. There is nothing wrong with playing the lower tiers with friends.

I have nothing against that, I just want HP's HP to hit zero

What the fuck did I do to you??
