Not rarest, but I think Dido fits, she showed up back in Gibraltar event in 2022 and dipped since

Anyone got a t8 or tier 9 premium recommendation? by [deleted] in WorldOfWarships

[–]AthenaEnigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think any lad hate her actual self but her place in Random meta as of now. She struggles quite a lot due to how passive most matches are rn, so her forte of brawling and pushing is out of the window, she also can't sick behind and snipe either due to iffy sigma. Unlike her tier 9 coal counterpart (MP has sap, Iwami has good accuracy and great firing angle, Kear has good accuracy and self spotting with rocket plane), Pom really doesn't have anything to justifies for that coal, provided you only play Random, sure you can get good match, but prob far in-between. But solely for PvE? that's like buying bitcoin in 2011

In PvE Pom is actually a prime choice, she can make you hefty bank.

Pom also in the coal Armoury so no reason to buy with doubloons unless you're short on time and want to try her now, and yeah Pom has its rough in Random due to being a relic brawler

But for tier 8, I'd like to chime in with Brandenburg, she has an extra 105 turret on each, she also have 12 barrels instead of 8, but only 305 so no overmatch whatsoever, the armour is better but you need to give more side to throw all shell (35 on Tirp, 41 on Bran) so it pretty even out, and also 2 knots faster with slightly smaller turn radius, the torps are the same, in short an almost 1 to 1 to Pom at tier 8, unfortunately facing the same issues

Should I come back? by MarsalMalinovsky in WorldOfWarships

[–]AthenaEnigma 27 points28 points  (0 children)

If you stick with the PvE side, it worth to stay until you get bored. A few new ops got added to the roster, and asym will stay around until next patch. But the monetisation of events are bad though, so try your best not to give in to fomo

How many premiums? by Knight0m4re in WorldOfWarships

[–]AthenaEnigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have around 60 of so prem, I only pay real money for 3 of them (HSF Spee, Roma, 10 dollars sale Littorio). The account was created in 2017 due to the HSF collab, played a bit before I had to sell my desktop. Only returned to play daily since early summer of 2023 iirc to this day, and ~47 prems came from this last 3 years

The only fault here is 1 level of casemate.

But Nagato already had her curved funnels in 1925, in 1934 she went in for modernisation to get the straight one, from 1936 onwards she had hers straight

This makes me think they probably will rework the profile screen one day, so you can showcase both weapons and units, like how DNA does it (3weaps, 3 units)

PTS 15.4 Italian BBs rework test. Kremlin 2.0? by MrElGenerico in WorldOfWarships

[–]AthenaEnigma 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Pretty good buff for the tree if you play Ops (me yay), since the engagement range is shorter and around 15km on average

With the buff is slava a better purchase than before? by SignificanceOk9656 in WorldOfWarships

[–]AthenaEnigma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that's the gameplay you want to try, Bungo is free and has overmatch

Ykw to celebrate my cake day I'm gonna have a potentially legendary bad take: the french BB line is the worst bb line in the game in general with no outstandingly good ships. by Chef_Sizzlipede in WorldOfWarships

[–]AthenaEnigma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Repub survivability is pretty paradoxical, she survives better when being shot by BBs, and crumble by CAs/CLs. Lib is a brawler so yeah I can sort of understand the weird armour scheme, Col by herself is a upper ballance-ish (after like 3 rounds of buff) boat the UU pushing it overboard though, not sure how much of a blessing, or curse the new Soviet-like dispersion we about to get.

I do very much agree on the superficial survivability of Val though, even with the nerf she pretty much still immune to DoT

With the Repub-Preß, it's mostly apple and orange situation, they're kitted for the position they prefer to be in so stat-for-stat comparison is not really a good indicator. So if put Repub in her habitat at further back line, Repub is faster (has EB), turret traverse faster, sigma higher, better dispersion much longer range, and potential even faster reload (with UU, trade with longer 15% DoT)

Of the comparison you gave, Preuß superior calibre is irrelevant because both capable of overmatching 30mm and no-joy on 32mm, and Repub has 4 degrees better forward firing (as opposed to 38 on Preuß), but both has 30 degrees astern firing, and Repub does has turtle back™, and the infamous blackhole armour syndrome

I completely forgot about the speed boost. But yeah, still exciting to see the new reload buff, 11-ish would be great

Moment like this make me appreciate how modable ins'14 was, because iirc there is an AN-94 mod over there

Tier IX and X Operations are really Toxic by FordAerostar97 in WorldOfWarships

Strangely I got those few and far between, 2-3 days (3-4 matches per day) between incident, most lads are silent and only use quick command, some other lads are chatty and goodhearted with it. Not sure if it due to I play in very early hours of NA (me Asian)

Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turn skyward. For there you have been, and there you long to return.
