>>145011556
get AFT and you'll be unkillable by planes
>>145010483
I'm going to assume you guys are talking about the Akatsuki, but yeah I'd pay for a ship that has twice the Hatsuharu's guns.
>>145011720
Is New Mexicos AA really that good?
>>145011556
Manual AA on a NM seems to be more of a waste than a boonwe're going to make a skill that super boosts AA, but only for large caliber guns :^)
>People have said bad things about Furutaka ever
>>145011932
It's pretty meh against t7 plons but you're invulnerable to t5-6 unless you get really shitty RNG (which happens sometimes)
>>145012317
there was a point, where the Furu was awkward and obtuse to play....but buff after buff she's honestly best t5 cruiser
>when Atlanta's AP rapes my Mogami from close range
That'll show me for getting complacent, at least my torpedoes posthumously killed him.
>>145011932
won't you transfer the captain to the next successor?
>>145012705
^this
Manual AA on Iowa gives 200 dps at 6km which is nearing Des Memes levels of power
>>145012841
>not doing secondary spec Iowa
There aren't enough CV's anymore to justify speccing battleships for AA, least of all ones that already have amazing AA without any sort of specialization.
>>145012990
Maybe I'll respec if Iowa secondaries can ever reach 10km but the current 7.2 if borderline useless
Secondaries also aim for center of the ship model which is always at the waterline. Hitting cruisers at the waterline with 5in HE does jackshit and is only effective against DDs, and will MAYBE start the odd fire or two.
>>145011856
Akizuki*
>>145012450
Konigsberg is best T5 cruiser.
>>145013264
hey, hey faggotbase range is now 6km, they can shoot out to about 9.2km
>>145013972
Did they address the fact that the secondaries literally aim for the worst possible part of the ship? That's really cool tho
>we want to solve the torpedo soup problem
>>145014187
of course not
6" or smaller guns aiming for battleship belt armor is of historical ))))
>>145014187
I've been noticing more shells landing above the belt and hitting the superstructure as of late
>>145014246
is of fun mini game comrade
>>145014423
Is it me or does the Tirpitz has some very good secondaries?
They deal like 5-6k damage from HE alone when fighting against BBs/CAs at close range.
>>145014895
would be great if they werent stuck at a base range of 4.5km
>>145015165
Secondarys getting nerfed anyways.
7.2km range i think they can reach.
>>145015502
>nerf an important aspect of battleships into uselessness
>give it a minor buff
>nerf it again harder against the wishes of everyone
player satisfaction))))
>>145015602
Making secondaries too strong would be a problem tovarish, they already are really powerful for what they can do
>>145015165
For fuck sake, they should be the best secondaries in game, with the highest damage and highest range since they're in legit stabilized turrets with rangefinders but no, they got like 1700 HE damage.
>>145017056

So how would you build ARP Haruna's captain?
Not very familiar with Japanese BB's just yet.
>>145038487
sit awareness, expert marksman, superintendent
>>145038609
>sit awareness on a tier 5 battleship
I could understand it if it had access to the concealment module, but with a 16.2km detection range at tier 5, the maps are so small people are gonna end up spotting you even when you're not firing no matter what.
>>145038938
Why do people think sit awareness is only for sneaky ships?
>>145039021
Because like I said, the maps are so small that you're going to be spotted by some cruiser coming out from behind a rock at the next cap over, and there's no way to reduce your detection range until your fifth-tier skill. I could understand you using sit. awareness on tier 8 and up where you do have a possibility to reduce that range, but on a tier 5 battleship... I wouldn't do it.

Glorious match, our DD was retarded but we still managed to win.
Landed some pretty awesome AP salvos on broadsided enemy Aoba and Nurnberg that basically crippled them for over half hp.
Then me and a Budy went on a capping/hunt mission to kill their Kamikaze R.

Best ship to use oon T5-6 for ranked?
>>145071937
any battleship
Good morning /wowsg/!
The weekend is almost upon us!
>>145071937
Farragut and New Mexico are strong choices.
New Mexico more so, since it seems BB's are more dominant on T5-6 ranked battles.
For T7 and onwards, Mahan and Colorado are good choices too, but here the trend reverses and DD's become more influential to the outcome of battles. So go Mahan. Or if you already have a good crew for it, a Blyskawica.
>>145072778
Hatsuharu is superior.
t. Not Raptor
T7 CVs are ridiculously hopeless against Saipan. Good thing WG won't nerf premium ships.
>>145071937
Cleveland
>>145071980
Scrub it up in my lolWarspite.
>>145072778

The hat is good for the stealth torps but it ends up with a knife fight at a point half the time.
>>145073337
May give it a shot.
>>145072778
While I love playing gunbote Hatsu and Bucky, I'm not so sure about playing Hatsu in ranked.
gunboting in IJN DD's need more time and space for hit and run tactics when fighting against other DD's, since they're less fit for head-on brawling. This means you're not going to be as effective in pushing caps against a Mahan, Sims, Kiev or Blys.

No fun allowed. So no, you can't ivision in ranked.
I still don't get why we can't have 2-man divisions in ranked. League of Legends allows that, in it's ranked 5v5 mode, and there's no issue.
In a 7v7 environment it shouldn't be that much different.

You will hit your back on latest irrevocable rank you have untill MM is satisfied. Then you will be given superunicums and you can finaly progress.
But if you didnt lose enough games you will lose momentum before next irrevocable rank and will fall back where you started.
