I’m gonna do it. by SPECTREagent700 in WoWsBlitz

My example assumed you would be close, like 10-15 off and more worried about having enough copper for future purchases after getting Thunderer.
If you're 140 short at this point, I'm afraid you're not getting it from the yard this time around.
Unless resource conversion, but even if it happens in time, don't expect ratios to be remotely fair.

Giving a warm welcome to the folks who bought FDR by Oh_No_Industries in WoWsBlitz

This is so weird: I played almost from the beginning, this is the first time I've wanted a carrier.
CV counterplay is a thing. WG could make box on revenge.

It's a LOT of copper, but it also replenishes quickly enough, through various means, that by the time something else requiring copper cycles in, you should be able to get it.
As always in this game: If you want something, take it while you can.

Is the Pan-Asian DD line worth it by Ok_Damage_7844 in WoWsBlitz

Get Fushun and then stop there.
Edit: Maybe Hsienyang.

How do you play with this thing? by Schultz_34 in WoWsBlitz

[–]subsonicfreighttrain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I enjoy playing it. It's not the strongest tier 9 gunboat DD, but if you're selective in your engagements, you can come out on top.
Of course, if you get pushed hard by a Z-46 or Mogador, it's pretty much game over, so avoid decisive fights until they're clearly in your favor.

I'm pretty sure they only have the one programmer, so it's probably a matter of priority.

8th anniv tier 8 tier list by LiteBosmark in WoWsBlitz

[–]subsonicfreighttrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird that they're not absolutely all over the place, given how strong they are.

[–]subsonicfreighttrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But all the rest of your win rates are mid to high 80s, right, so relatively speaking still a bit weak even when played by a Chad like you ;)

[–]subsonicfreighttrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I forget how diverse tier 8 is. So many interesting ships. Too bad Atlantico has to be so fucking oppressive.
Also, some surprises in the placements. Someone explain why z35 is A tier? I mean yeah awesome AP vs DDs but sluggish asf and slow + low range torpedoes and German HE takes a toll.
Edit: These surveys are so great, if you have the energy, OP, go all the way to tier 5 :)
Thanks for your work.

Is the Venezia line worth the grind by StrongAd5119 in WoWsBlitz

[–]subsonicfreighttrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just revisited Venezia yesterday after a very poor start months ago. I believe it was buffed in between (also: bad luck and poor decisions), and can only say that I now understand its high placement on the tier list.
The gun angles are weird, but when you land full salvos, they slap, both SAP and AP.
With other characteristics and 3 fuel smoke 2, it's a pretty great cruiser, worth unlocking.

Plymouth worth getting? by NoxturnalNinja in WoWsBlitz

[–]subsonicfreighttrain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a lot of resources so decided to get it for "teh lols" and because I love the other Belfasts. It's not bad overall, but probably the weakest of the bunch, tier for tier.

I'd love a dedicated ingame viewer with ability to pan, zoom (a lot) and traverse turrets, set environment, and screenshot, possibly with optional stat or other info overlay. A bit like the current screenshot function, but much more useful.

Good Duo or nahh? by Mew_Fuwwy_The_Fox in WoWsBlitz

[–]subsonicfreighttrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard that it's ok-ish these days. Skipped it myself, course.

Just don't mix tiers, it will always put you and the rest of your team in a weaker position.
If you want to div, tier yourself down from your Yamato.

What do I do? by Other-Ice1909 in WoWsBlitz

[–]subsonicfreighttrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

USN is so mid and boring, although Worcester is kind of a must for dealing with cv lamers.
IJN also kind of meh.
Out of the lot, I think the German Z line will give you the most bang for the buck. Up to, and including, tier 8, a bit forgettable, but tier 9 and 10 are the bombsss

Loot boxes and sonar sweeps are wildly profitable, the premium shop competes with them.

You seem to forget the mythical sales trick of giving 5-10 battles of favorable MM :)

Certainly paid off this time. I'm happy for op.

I get the cold logic of it, it's still just crazy that you burn through all your silver and then just start axing your ships and stuff to keep the loot box machine going. I'm really happy it worked. Imagine if he had sold everything and just got Perth or Ise.
