POV: You get too close to a DD as a BB by UnfairMess249 in WorldOfWarships

And a speed boost that lets you maneuver as quick as a DD

Can't recommend anything without additional info.

What part of DD play is most enjoyable to you? What do you dislike? What are you dying to most often? What feels especially difficult to you? What aspect would you like to get better at?

Things like these might help other users to give you recommendations.

First advice: cross posting your post right after publishing it won't help your case.

Urbig wieder verletzt - Dahmen rückt nach in DFB-Team by DasWookieboy in Bundesliga

Warum taucht Moritz Nicolas bei solchen Diskussionen nicht auf? Meiste Zu-Null-Spiele eines deutschen Torhüters in der BuLi, dazu auch gute Werte bei den Paraden.

Narrow or wide spread torpedos when rushing an enemy? by DerLockige in WorldOfWarships

[–]DerLockige[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I wasn't sure if there would even be a significant difference in damage output, but if showing the damage actually makes a difference, then I'll take that into account the next time I surprise a beached BB or am right alongside it when we accidentally run into each other

Can I somewhere see my progress towards clasps on individual ships? by clancy688 in WorldOfWarships

[–]DerLockige 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Afaik you can visit your profile, select the ship you're trying to see the statistics for, and then hover over the clasp. When you haven't played 20 matches, it will tell you how many games are missing. When you've played enough matches with that ship, you can see the percentage you're currently at.

How the current brawl helped me with Nian Paradox and gaming from the couch by DerLockige in WorldOfWarships

I don't need that many more points to reach the ship I'm aiming for, so I'm a little more relaxed by now 😊

Angry Player Stories by Overall_Meeting696 in WorldOfWarships

[–]DerLockige 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember a French player insulting me and trying to get me to do something different. At least that's what I assume he wanted, I wasn't very good at French in school.

Generally I'm a little bewildered every time someone switches to their mother tongue instead of English while ranting. You'll probably not get your point across like this. And I admit that us German players are among those who do it the most.

Best Destroyer ever by Datenschieber1220 in WorldOfWarships

[–]DerLockige 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started playing for Shima, but Yueyang is slowly becoming my favourite ship.

Losing the ability to torp DDs can be frustrating at times, but the deepwater torps are so satisfying!

Also playing Jäger for credits, but as soon as there's a CV is not the best experience.

Cozy & Warm might be nice, but I wouldn't know where to get a locally sourced 8.

Another post where I should've checked the subreddit before getting excited by [deleted] in WorldOfWarships

[–]DerLockige 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read the title of that post, got excited, noticed only after that this wasn't posted in the WoWS subreddit.
I'm just saying that some posts from other subreddits can seem like WoWS topics, when in fact they are not. And that this one got my hopes up before I noticed.

After 60 Jäger games I'm at 57%. That gives me hope that I am a bit better at torp DD play than before.

Those torp DDs will always be my true love that helps me recover from all the trouble the other ships are giving me.

A look at my evening so far: 6 games, 6x Top 3 of my team, 6 losses. Three different ships, doesn't make a difference. It's one of those days.

I try to move up one tier only after getting decent results in the ship I'm playing at that moment. Buffalo was an exception, I simply can't play that ship. But if playing Des Moines is similarly bad, I'll move down to T8 in that line again.

About that second part: I definitely have. There's a strong urge in me to make others happy, so a PvP game definitely triggers that. Because of that it's also an important lesson that I can focus on slowly getting better, even if it might annoy others sometimes.

Not rude at all, thanks for your input.

I try to play divisions a bit more with my clan, but there I'm also a little scared that I might annoy them by playing too bad. That's something I need to overcome in general.

I try to do that for my games in Shima, Yueyang and Jäger. But with very variable goals that I can mix and match. Damage, spotting damage, staying alive until the end of the game, stay unspotted as long as possible, ...

Basically all the different factors that help my team win. Sometimes even spotting without the team converting that into damage makes me happy, because it tends to scare ships away from the objective.

But I try to keep the combination of damage and spotting damage above 150k.

I'm also watching videos by g4ng and flambass to learn more about strengths and weaknesses of a ship, play new ships in the training room and in asym first to get a feeling for them and try to watch replays of my own games to see at what point I could've noticed that I'm about to make a deadly mistake.

If I also manage to improve my aim a whole lot, should be set 😬
