>>144307353
This is not about EURO 16?
Onishi has a skill that gives 10% extra arty range for 20s if you hit an enemy. Being in range of enemies without dying is pretty important in FB/5v5, so I'm wondering if it could be useful for BB builds there. Kinda gimmicky since he's a CV guy and has no other relevant skills, but 10% range is pretty decent, especially if it also increases your effective shell speed.
>>144307996
If that skill is commander only, it's shit for BBs
and maybe useful for CAs but there are still better alternatives.
>>144308245
No, it's a proc skill like Conceit. I find myself often sitting in my Wyo looking at a target just out of range knowing that if I move in range I'll get fired back on.
The issue is that since it's a proc skill it will spend half the time on cooldown and since it's activated by a hit it's not as easy to manually activate as conceit is.
>>144307996
Perhaps on a split Carrier/Ship-type
Yodo or Ise.
Or one of the CV's with artillery mode for its guns.

How is that even possible? THe only this that can outrange you is Bongo and everyone knows wyo is meta at t4
>>144308380
just play kraut
Go! Fight! Win! Ypá
>>144308758
How would I know where everyones from
>>144308953
Everyone is wyo, both fleets are sending fighters over each other, so you have targets but if you move up to shoot them it's guaranteed fighters will be sent to spot you back.
>>144309225
Lurk more
>>144309128
>Liverpool
Into the fucking trash she goes.
>>144309398
That's why you do coordinated push and focus everyone on one target. With faster reload skill you're pretty much guarranteed to sink enemy wyo under a minute.
>>144309870
And then it comes down to which fleet aims and coordinates better. Having a guy or two who don't actually need to push to keep applying damage is a big difference; most spottings in FB go unexploited because people are out of range.
Not that I'd spend 300 quali on onishi just for FB.

He plays a really selfish DD. Back when he first showed up he would suicide charge BBs at t7, and he has improved since then after much ridicule but he still runs gun-heavy builds and charges subs and even BBs sometimes.

New to the game here. Is it just me, or is the matching for the Steam version taking so freaking long every time?
>>144340934
That's our big problem currently. Too little players so it takes 1-5mins to find a game and it's often a 5v5. We used to have 15v15 but those are exceedingly rare now.
MM is pretty good at tier 4, there's a lot of people there, but to get to that you need 20-30 battles. They added bot battles for t1-3 to help with that but I think you only get xp for the first three or so per day?
We're mostly sticking around with the hope that the publisher will start advertising or do a merge with china already.

Nah haven't really tried drawing much KC as of yet.
Simply found it.
>>144340934
well the first tier or two tends to take quite a while.
That's part of the reason they added the vs bot mode which had been 3 matches for rewards a day, and updated to 5 matches.
Pick your T1, Bot mode to T2 and try those queues.
You can usually find others willing to jump down if you type "Tier _ needs more" or if you go CV "Tier _ CV in Queue"
I might not be aviable for 5v5s on sunday.

>You can usually find others willing to jump down if you type "Tier _ needs more" or if you go CV "Tier _ CV in Queue"
That's only works if you want to go seal clubbing. Wouldn't recommend it for someone new.

I... didn't knew that. And I'm pretty close to getting my first T8 DD.
I guess this applies to every non-hawkeye ship.
Worst thing is I do well with DDs versus pubs. Time to see if this new knowledge will make me a literal god.
>>144421161
It was funny when the new person said it.
it's worrying whe you say it
>>144422320
Wait a sec (I haven't sleep in the last two days), does the shift press comes after one fully zooms with the mouse wheel? Because I already knew that at "normal" zoom, pressing shift zoomed some, but in the end mouse scroll would give the max zoom possible on non-hawkeye guns.
From that anon post I got the idea of a zoom on the level of a DD taking 80% of your screen at 5km from a DD.
>>144422576
I just always pressed shift for zoom and only realized today that mouse wheel will zoom much further is what I meant. Good part into T6 too

The lewdest fiend in this universe. Rotten to the core yet incredibly cute, it's very likely she will choke your chicken dry without thinking it twice. Oh, how the people of old spoke of her! Powerful like thunder, seductive like succubi, greedy of semen, blood, pee, you mention it, she's drunk it or inserted it in her mighty butt. He whose dick rests in her for seconds will see devils, then cum; he whose dick rests in her for minutes will touch demons, then cum.
He whose dick rests in her for hours is not yet born, for he will come when the sky is blotted by the symbol of the monster. Let us hope such moments will never be with us; let us shower Hiei with our semen, with our soul.
