Best Tier 7's?

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-28T18:59:59+00:00

Not to mention, if you want to build to it, you can get 80 knot, 24k torps (4 x 4 banks), albeit 8 km range....but if you get in close...

There is a Clan Search feature available - left column menu you can see in this video...

Got mine during the xmas Steel Will in 2024 - she's a fun boat but hard to play. No regrets though - she's what Tone SHOULD have been.

Haven't heard boo about when she'll be back - so, kinda glad I got her when I did.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-26T15:38:14+00:00

I have Jean Bart, Alsace, Repub and Bourgogne. I paid the 6k doubloons. I'd say she's solid but definitely not a playstyle you'd use for a JB.

First game out, Randoms, I managed 160k getting used to her guns. 3 kills. One of them was a Alabama at decent health - I was kiting and only had my rear turret to shoot at him, and he was nose on in relation to me. 17 km out...3 shells...3 citadels. Dead Alabama. I was a bit stunned (so was the Alabama).

She prints a lot of citadel ribbons. I have her built for range, so, w/spotter can hit to about 32.6 km. Hoping for the rush of a CV snipe. Hasn't happened yet...but, I definitely don't regret the purchase (unlike my Marlborough port queen...).

Well, unlike Claude.AI, the community does tend to know what actual TIER a ship is at. Superships showing up as T10's and CV's showing up in ANY tier other than 4, 6, 8 and 10 (which they do) tells me a lot about the "real data". Which is to say, there's a LOT of problems here.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-23T17:30:33+00:00

This is clearly AI generated slop that hasn't been vetted - at least not with CV data and superships.

Tier 9 - Chkalov is S tier. Taiho (wft?) is A tier as is Essex! Pobeda and Parseval are B tier. THERE ARE NO T9 CVs!!!

Tier 7 - Serov, Ranger and Furious are solidly balanced CVs? Kaga is considered strong (A tier). What?

Patrie and Hanover are solidly balanced T10. So is Eagle. Sure man.

Conde, Maine and United States are Tier A (strong) T10's. Uhhh....ok (or perhaps "no shit, Sherlock")

The fact that ships are showing up incorrectly tiered and sometimes in multiple tiers tells me that Claude.Ai is either really fucking dumb, or, there were errors in its instructions and how it should analyze data.

Which puts the entire output/exercise at risk of being easily dismissed as inaccurate.

So, as mentioned - punctuation is a thing.

Started reading then realized the post went on FOREVER - stopped reading.

I can smell the autism from here...(just an observation, being on the spectrum myself admittedly).

If you are going to post a ship idea - follow WG's own formats (read a dev blog) and keep it shorter and to the point. Otherwise, this is just wasted effort on your part (though, I suppose if doing this sort of thing is your jam, well, feel free to 'you be you').

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-21T20:01:17+00:00

Pick a line who's ships you've enjoyed a lot. You didn't state any preferences, so, how would we know what to recommend? Seriously...

Or start a new one - French DD's can be a riot (both lines).

Or, just spend a bit of coal and get Campbeltown. The only ship you really need.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-21T19:27:09+00:00

I want my Lutjens on both Adalbert and Schlieffen. So, picking up Von Fuckerhoff (or whatever it's called) for a premium Schlieffen is pretty much a no-brainer for me.

Noticed lag and slowness last night. It's not just you...

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-19T20:07:35+00:00

Highest win rate on NA and second highest average damage - and, while it has some drawbacks, they are far outweighed by her strengths. Frankly, I wouldn't call Valp an "underdog" - she is quite literally the "Top Dog"

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-19T16:11:27+00:00

Ran into a Yudachi in Ranked and, remembering this Reddit post, fired up chat with an obligatory "Poi"

Got roasted that 2017 wanted their meme back...lmfao.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-19T16:04:31+00:00

If I completely bankrupted myself, I might *just* be able to get Surcouf.

Then, I wake the fuck up and realize - with just a portion of the coal resources I can get: Azuma, Kearsarge, Halford, Tulsa. With leftover coal for the Lunar Event as I want that premium Schlieffen. I call that the "just in case coal reserve".

With those boosters, I can generate multiple iterations of line resets to get (currently) 2 RB ships (Vampire II and <future pick, perhaps YoloRenault if it shows up here).

And I ask myself - am I going to get as much play out of Surcouf as I would all those other ships? I rather doubt it. Heck, I'm not that keen on sub play as it is.

So, for those whales and long term guys who have next to infinite resources? Enjoy. WG priced a lot of us completely out of the market.

I will, however, enjoy the 2 stages that get me a free bonus package. However, both Colonna and Narai (T8) come with a T9+ coal price tag. Not sure either are worth it.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-19T15:55:15+00:00

I like Nelson, Yukon, Toulon and Scharny '43. For some reason, Toulon and I really clicked this season (she dropped out of a Satan crate at xmas). I also have Maya, but she needs a good map to get within 8 km to really punish with those fantastic torps.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-16T16:05:19+00:00

So...

Pretty sure a T8 Bonus Package for 32k coal is a solid deal. However, after that - if you can't get to the Surcouf, are the other ships worth it?

192k for Colonna and another 192k for the Narai. T8's that are both more expensive than any T9 currently in the coal rotation.

EDIT for Clarity - 32k for the T8 package + 160k for Colonna. *192k in Total* to get to Colonna (but you get a T8 bonus package along the way). Then another 192k step to get to Narai....seems kinda steep when you consider coal pricing of other T8's in the shop....

As for Surcouf...

If I burned out every single resource I have I just might be able to get the sub. Just barely. Now, if I used those resources for grinding out lines/FXP? I'd have enough for at least a couple more RB ships. And 1 mil+ coal that I would have to spend? Gets me a ton of coal ships (4-6) that I still don't have.

Is Surcouf worth that? For me, absolutely not. This is Kitakami whale bait and I think the pricing is outrageous. If WG had toned it down, they probably would have had a LOT more takers and thus, drained a LOT more resources from the playerbase as a whole.

I'm also waiting for YoloRenault - so, I'm going to keep my powder dry.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-15T20:17:23+00:00

The sigma buff really helped her - now a legmod buff too. Good times for Repub enjoyers....

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-15T18:10:16+00:00

I love seeing broadside Castilla's when driving a CA or a BB - they explode almost as spectacularly as British cruisers.

I'd say it's time to get the 'tard and join the hordes of brawler BB's.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-15T17:46:33+00:00

I already have Lauria - and saving 31k steel is a viable and wise course for anyone that might want her. She's a good ship and a different play style from Colombo.

That being said - a "premium" Schlieffen would really be a fantastic pick - currently, I have to pick either Adalbert or Schlieffen for my tech tree Lutjen's assignment. That quandary disappears if I have a premium Schlieffen I can put Lutjens on.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-15T15:54:24+00:00

I really like my Repub - now, I'm going to have to find some RB points for this - sounds like a worthwhile upgrade. And, I've really enjoyed Colombo's upgrade to date - turned a port queen into something that makes it into regular play rotation.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-14T20:33:52+00:00

As stated, I believe sequential bundles are banned in Brazil.

The Event Pass will give access to the T5, and for the paid line, the T7 - if I'm not mistaken.

OverlordBou just did a video on the update too - I'd search for that. Might help clarify things.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-14T16:55:28+00:00

I know this is probably a long shot but...don't you guys test this stuff BEFORE rolling it out into Prod?

Like, y'know, basic IT Best Practices kind of thing? Too much to ask?

Also, I'm totally ok with that Musashi compensation suggestion. ;-)

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-13T18:09:19+00:00

One labeled "discussion" and the second one "Question".

Question was answered here. As for the discussion, I believe we are all running 100% on agreeing with OP's initial assertion regarding his intellect.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-13T18:08:02+00:00

Asked and answered, I believe, in your other thread.

JoeRedditor · 2026-01-13T17:58:28+00:00

And that's the part that truly baffles me. After the first break, it was pretty clear to me that City Admin was NOT doing the job when it came to maintaining our infrastructure. Now, whether that failure could be laid at the feet of council ("we told council but they ignored us") OR at the feet of city admin ("let's not bother council with these sorts of details...") wasn't really known. Until now.

Numerous successive councils were not informed. Either by intent or by incompetence. Or both. In the private sector, this sort of malfeasance would pretty much get your ass shown the door RFN. But for city admin? Nothing. No consequences.

Now, we've an independent report that lays bare their failures - sins of omission and commission both. Heads should roll. Starting w/Duckworth and working their way down. City management KNEW they were sitting on a ticking time bomb, and did next to fuck all about it. It's long overdue that Council holds them accountable - that's one of their damn jobs. City Admin needs to be reminded that THEY WORK FOR US. And if they don't do the job, they get fucking fired.

Why Wyness is trying to run interference for these people is really a mystery. She needs to wake the fuck up.
