>The following description is adapted from "British Battleships of World War Two:"

>The designed loading-cycle for these mounts was 30 seconds, but in practice, it was 35 seconds for one gun. As the shell loading in the handling rooms required 50 seconds, the maximum sustained rate of fire was one round per gun every 50 seconds. However, because of the necessity of firing wing and center guns of turrets in different salvos [in order to reduce dispersion problems], the firing rate was further reduced to one round every 60 to 65 seconds. Even with modifications, the Director of Naval Ordnance considered it extremely doubtful that a greater rate of fire than one round of every 40 seconds for the first four rounds and one round every 45 seconds thereafter would actually be achieved.

I took out a yamato basically all by myself, since thankfully he was broadside at <7km away, and before i died i took out the zao, and yet we still lost. At the endgame screen i found out that one of our yamato's was second from bottom on the scoreboard.

They're not powerful, at all. I'm sure if you get close to them and ignore them they might do something, but all they really do is serve as a distraction for the enemy team to shoot at. 200k HP worth of distraction.

Also, when they run out of HP they don't just die and remain useless for the remainder of the match. Instead they begin regenerating all their or most of their HP and are invulnerable during this time. They're also not active. I assume the same is true of the spotting stations.

Don't go alone off by yourself.
Watch the minimap constantly. It even helps you aim (by looking if ships are angled towards your or getting away)
PVE (Co-OP) battles are turned on by default. You need to reach account level 2 or 3 to unlock PVP (random) battles. It's the dropdown menu to the right of the "BATTLE" button.
Japanese and US cruisers are nice for new players. Try them out before going for battleships or destroyers.

it's not as skill based as wot. your best use is strategy, engagement and rng guessing for when to use ap. there is alote of teamwork so it feels it's like on right track.

still it can work, all we need is some sort of ranked battles with a unique MMR system like the rank system to match players of equal skill to one other and encourage gitting gud over having fun like the ranked battles grind system

Stay invisible.
Don't put yourself in situations that will get you killed.
Don't suicide rush into ships just to try to get some torps in.

Remember that a DD is more valuable in the late game capping bases, removing enemy DDs and being a constant unseen threat to enemy BB's.

I don't know if this is bait or not, but I'll that it anyway.

DD is literally the most influential class in the game: with their stealth, speed and 4-dimensional torpedo storage room, destroyers' mere presence causes headaches, if not fear to enemy ships. They can carry out task from reconnaissance, harassing enemy ships to area denial.

>battle ships nuke you in one shot

The thing is out a 10+ gun salvo, you can expect to hit 1 or 2. When i fire at a DD i consider myself lucky to get anything over that, considering that unless im right up next to it and it's broadside there's so much dispersion and time for the DD to dodge that usually i just expect to hit nothing anyways.
>>
>>147248315
>Triggered
Please don't be angry

>Nerfing BB dispersion against DD
Are you for real? Battleships already have dispersion and long reload time , the only way they can land most of their shells on you is if you get extremely close to them

Stay at distance and do Zig-zag movements. I mainly play CA/CL and it's very hard to shoot at DDs at 7+ km range unless they sail broad-side on to me at constant speed.

btw
>they just magically appear out of island I can't fucking explain it it's fucking magic

>DD captain complaining something being magic
Not to sound like a BaBBie but let me tell you what's magic in this game: fucking 100 meter long piece of steel can be invisible from enemies unless they fired; or the 4-dimentional torpedo storage they have that could spam torps every two minute or so.

Right.

Nope. Burning is still a viable counter again BB for BB's huge size and RPM of CAs
>Dispersion buff means they can rape DDs
Why don't you have some situation awareness?
>Able to delete CAs even if they angle
BB's reload is about 30s and you can literally time yourself when to angle and fire. Also it's not that hard to dodge BB shells.
>Only thing that can reliably kill a BB is another BB
Or a team of decent CA players teamworking together

And yes, BB need some rebalancing with regard to the enormous damage they deal and how RNG-reliant they are, but to say that their main battery need to be nerfed against a type of ship because you get killed simply reflects that you are a massive shitter.
>>
>>147250261
I dislike rng, it takes away room to git gud

it's the only complain I have about BBs.

DDs cannot into balance due to poor gunnery on ijn and poor everything on usn, CAs really need a half assed repair hability and CV need to become more watercraft 2: revenge of the battleship and less passive play like scouting or literally attacking until you ran out of and because there's no suitable target
>>
>>147250243
The fuck kind of potato in a DD gets in close enough to be seen against a BB. Just stay out of your detection range and enjoy.
>>
>>147251589
yea that works great when your torps are 2k inside your detectrion range and your guns are just barely outside it without firing.

How many torpedos do DD usually carry IRL?

>>147251826
So fire your guns at distracted battleships, its not that goddamn hard. If you get spotted pop smoke and sit inside it and fire at him and laugh while he can't do anything.

During WW2? As many torpedoes as they have tubes, except for many, but not all classes of Jap DDs.

meanwhile you get to do what, 5k damage to him with your slow reload does jack shit damage HE throwing peashooter because wg thinks CA's and BB's should be nearly immune to DD gund yet they gave DD's guns anyway. Maybe you get one fire with your lowest fire chance of all classes guns. Which he then pops his healpot and ignores you disgusting gun damage and them blind fire detonates you by looking at you muzzle flashes. and now they are adding a scharnhorst which can rape DD's even better why still having everything. enjoy your game babbie fuck I hope you realise noone wants to play it with you.

Read up on how to use AP effectively: aim for the waterline at short range, about halfway up the hull at long range (so the shells come down through the deck).

BBs use AP all the time unless their only targets for a while are DDs.
Cruisers use AP against cruisers (and BBs broadside on at close range - hit their weak spots) and HE against everything else.
DDs use HE all the time, except against lightly armoured cruisers broadside on at close range.

Don't show your broadside to an enemy that could potentially shoot at you and penetrate your armour.

>>147246226
Read this: >>147198581
DDs stay alive either by staying unspotted or keeping the range open and WASD-hacking.

>>147248465
Their planes follow predictable paths.

>>147248542
>50% accuracy
Most BBs have an average accuracy of 25% or less.

>>147249191
DDs are buffed beyond any semblance of reality by detection ranges and the in-game speed of ships. Their scale speed is on the order of 300 km/h. This lets you close the distance very quickly even if you are spotted (and most times you shouldn't be).

>>147249778
The only thing you're justified in complaining about there is the AA buff. Any ship with decent torps is a danger to a BB.

>>147251826
Did you take Torpedo Acceleration on an IJN DD with short range torps? Don't do that.

>>147253556
Set one fire and you're likely to do at least another 5k damage.

>>147253901
IJN DD guns are ideal for fleeing from other DDs. Actively hunting with them is a mistake.

jesus fucking christ how retarded are you? BBs are not favored in every fucking way. At all. Fuck. They do not have the rate of fire to just slaughter their way through enemies, and try just pushing into 2+ CAs. Just fucking try. Fires everywhere is what you get, you will just get burned down. And a single DD can either kill you, or be so annoying that its stupidly hard to push. I was playing my NC earlier, and i had to push foward into just a fletcher and a mahan. Want to know what happened? I dodged 90+% of all the torpedoes launched and i still died because i still got hit by 3 of them, and was set on fire.

Yes never mind that they need that survivability to even have a hope of leading a push into a bunch of invisifiring top tier CAs and their huge fire chance per salvo + their BB and DD support in a ship that can't dodge fire like everything else can because they lack mobility and concealment compared to everything else.
The reason everything about high tier BBs is so inflated is because at that tier everything is inflated. Everything does ludicrous amounts of damage because WG's idea of high tier gameplay is an arms race where every class is supposed to counter all of their shortcomings with the ability to just melt through healthbars as quickly as possible.
