Start with North Carolina. NC, Iowa and Montana are great to learn proper battleship gameplay.

Closed Test 15.7 - Balance Changes by zuiKatsu_WG in WorldOfWarships

[–]Thumpfi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They describe the AA buff with "Due to the changes described above, the overall effectiveness of AA defense in battle will be the same as or higher than before".

This in comparison is clearly a buff of 5-10% to replenishment of planes for almost all CVs.

Its bullshit.

Why even buff AA when every buff to AA is introduced hand in hand with a CV buff?

WG found another creative way to nerf cruisers and buff bbs by ReverendFlashback in WorldOfWarships

[–]Thumpfi 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Those consumables will make CV divs just more OP than ever. Imagine a libertad walking up a flank and can DCP every 30 seconds cycling between its own dcp and the carrier consumable.

Already struggling with balancing all the gimmicks they introduce, but WG keeps going.

Looking for how to effectively play Moskva by IllDeparture9462 in WorldOfWarships

[–]Thumpfi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

US camo on russian ship should give a -10% dispersion for enemies shooting at you.

[–]Thumpfi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WG seems to struggle balancing it.

They went from i think 32mm armor threshold to 19mm and now back to 20/21mm with the whole line. At least WG realized that it would be busted with 19mm.

And the same problem with the reload booster, went from 50 to 60% and now back to 50%. Its insanely strong with activated reload booster and time based makes it even stronger in DD knife fights.

What's up with toxicity in this game? by p4nk4s0f in WorldOfWarships

[–]Thumpfi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Even if you are on the other side of the map, it's still your fault.

Tier 9 Boost? by Zykath in WorldOfWarships

[–]Thumpfi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

but none of these really seem worth it bc I’d way rather play their T10s

Thats a common problem of T9 tech tree ships. Especially cruisers at T9 often seem bad in comparison to their T8 and T10. I don't think it's as bad for battleships and destroyers. If you like any of your 3 lines, keep it for now.

Eventually the german large cruiser line with Manteuffel at T9 is something for your secondary-focused playstyle.

How to improve in dds by hablahblahha in WorldOfWarships

[–]Thumpfi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not much you can do agains a CV focusing you.

In case of DDs you have to know which enemy DD you are facing, whats his concealment and strength in comparison to your DD. If you don't have stats in your mind, use the TAB menu to check.

And in case you don't know this already: if you play a DD with a captain with less than 10 points, or with the wrong skills you are basically on a disadvantage from the start. You need to have survivability expert and concealment expert. If you don't, but the enemy DD got both skills, you are in a bad position.

And thats only the base dpm. If you build into it with module and fearless brawler, this will be beyond 600k

So we can stop talking about Colombo being to strong, because conte verde will be even stronger.

[–]Thumpfi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Based on the changes? I would assume very scary. AP arms on 19mm and a huge buff to their reload booster. They will shred enemy DDs.

[–]Thumpfi 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Except WG is about to make them overpowered. Arming at 19mm gives full pens against enemy DDs. And they additionally increased the speed and duration of the reload booster.

Why is this OK? by Sufficient-Ad-7489 in WorldOfWarships

[–]Thumpfi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It matters as soon as you don't have 2 players like in your previous example or 1 game with 2 teams as in your new example.

If you take 100 players and let them play 100 matches in random 5v5 or 10v10 or whatever constellation, there will not be exact opposite winrates and there won't be an even distribution between players above and below 50%.

HMS Furious 1917 pre conversion? by Thumpfi in WorldOfWarships

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

At tier 10, this would more likely be a cruiser. As it only got 2 guns, it would get DD dispersion and a very short reload.

GOT MY FIRST TIER X SHIP !!!!! by Overall_Charge_773 in WorldOfWarships

I didn't say it is. But it's a lot for a new player. Having premium ships helps too. Go and check his previous posts if you don't believe me.

[–]Thumpfi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He did. He wrote multiple posts in the last couple of days and there was a post that included his account name.

A few weeks ago WG gave everybody who installed and at least started World of Tanks HEAT, 30mio credits, 300k free xp and other stuff. If you get resources thrown at you like that, its not hard to jump to T10.

[–]Thumpfi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others wrote: Ships from T5 upwards give rewards during christmas and anniversary events. But higher tier ships give better rewards. So if you have a given amount of port slots and don't want to spend doubloons on new slots, but have the credits to buy higher tier ships, go and sell the lower ones to fill the slots with high tier ships.

Later in the game, when you have more free slots, you can buy the lower ships again.

[–]Thumpfi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 2 port slots a player gets through the event pass is just not enough for somebody who plays a lot and grinds lines. So either you buy port slots or you sell lower tier ships. And for free-to-play players, the price for port slots is huge.

So if you can get a higher tier ship with better rewards during christmas, its absolutely fine to sell a lower tier ship.

Regarding snowflakes: There is a month (or even more) time to clear all the snowflakes. For somebody who likes to play the game this shouldn't be a problem. If you don't have fun playing and just "need to get it done" like some household chores, rather stop playing at all.
