Who are these Blys players doing that good? I always get fucking wrecked when I play mine. I think I use it too much like a DD and not enough like a CL so it's probably on me though.

View Quote Put points into anything that upgrades the guns and reduces visibility. My Blyska detect is 6.8, jumps to 10.4 when shooting and gun range is 14.5. That's a really nice sweet spot to rain HE, especially on those cruisers that want to hide behind islands. Flank, keep your distance and drop he. Even if they have smoke, that cruiser will have to either take the hits, break cover, or depend on his teammates to take care of you. |

Hope none of what I said was taken as that you didn't, rather just general advice given the bi-polar nature of MM and RNG. You are either going to get crappy teams or you are going to get decent teams. If you are getting crappy teams I figure might as well do it in ranked where you will at least be on tier. View Quote MM, RNG and german BB dispersion. I really like how german bb's play, but holy crap I've never bracketed so many shots before. |

View Quote I play mine as a gunboat. Hide in and out of the islands and spam torpedoes when the enemy ships get close enough. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. |

damn maynard--gg.
i'm in a bit of a quandry for my izumo captain. already have manual secondaries, and am trying to decide whether to go AFT or manual AA instead. what do you guys think? |

I think I'm going to get back into this. I have a new Laptop (Lenovo, Quad Core i7-6700HQ, 16GB RAM, Nvidia GTX950M 4GB) downloading it right now. The old PC (which I'm still using at the moment and at least somewhat through tax season) just wasn't cutting it.

Please confirm I'm thinking logically.
Given: -The Gneisenau is one of the better T7 ships in the game, and good for Ranked battles. I should keep it since I don't own a Scharnhorst. -And, The Bismark is a fantastic Tier 8 battleship, will likely get mega nerfed, and I should play it now before it does. Know: -I have sufficient credits to "get both" -And I have sufficient gold to retrain captains Then: -I should move my 15pt Gneis captain into the Bismark and retrain to take full advantage of those 15 points and take full advantage of the secondary fire capability of the Bismark. -I should put a currently unused 10pt captain into the Gneis and use my Tirpitz to continue his training. Else: - Pull the 14pt captain from my Hipper (in which I am terrible) and put him in the Bismark, and put the 10 pt into the Hipper. Anything I'm missing there? |

View Quote Put the 10pt Captain in the Gneis and grind it in ranked. Add a few good flags and you'll have him maxed out in no time. I took my Blyska Captain from 3 points to max in one ranked season. |

My Warships today overall rating dropped 17 points since yesterday. I didn't even PLAY yesterday or today. WTF, over?

this View Quote Thank you both for saving me from a potential mistake then. Jumped up to 16 using the Gneis, then promptly got a window licker team that kept me from going up to 15. A trollorado hid behind an island all game, but then managed to get enough damage when it was him vs. the world to beat me by a dozen XP to take top spot, so I lost a star and that moron kept his. |

Be aggressive. use your torps and guns. get 80K damage and 2 kills. Always be top XP. you will never go backwards. it was working for me very well up until rank 9.

It appears that the AR15 Black Rifle Group clan is full up, no more room (30 members only). Time for the AK47 (Trash Can Guns?) clan I guess.

I'd suggest something that seems affiliated. AR-15 would be good, like we did for tanks .
making some progress... Attached File |

i'm one ragey battle away from re-buying a nagato and hulk-smashing into ranked. playing ranked in CAs is for the gender-confused.

View Quote I'd rather they fix the economics of carriers, and reduce the damn Shiratsuyu torp spam, instead of making stupid videos. |

Just played a match in my Blyska. 3 DDs on each team. I was the only DD that paid any attention tot he caps. I was DC'd from the match and had to relog back in times, still managed to get 2 solo caps and 2 torps into a Scharn.
I think I might be done for tonight. ALL of the connection issues I have tonight are plotted back to WGs NA server. |

So, what is up with the Scharns guns? Two matches in a row I scored perfect broadside hits and did zero damage. The Gato was perfect broadside and not moving, the other Scharn was about 10 degrees angled. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/198592/shot-17-150234.jpg https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/198592/shot-17-150235.jpg View Quote |

Question. Is there a way to reach through my monitor to beat people for being douchebags?

If you guys want some good dramallama reading, google the story of Frumpylumps in WoWS. Dude did nothing but TK'd premium ships and bragged about it for months in chat, reddit and the WG forums before WG took any action.

I've done more reports through the website in the past two days then I've ever done. Serial AFK'rs, douchbags that give out locations in chat, TK'rs, and one suspected cheater. I did notice something. All of my tickets for the open/shut cases, where I provided plenty of evidence had the same canned response:

Coming soon to a game near you...the Matchmaking Monitor. View Quote I just loaded it in. It's really nice and easy to use, unlike XVM. Saw in reddit that previous xvm type programs eventually get banned so enjoy it while you can. Apparently, WG does not want players to know the stats of who's in the match, unlike WOT. It's been really useful in determine who I should focus my fire on. Last match the enemy team had a Nagato with 36%, a Belfast with 1 battle and a Atlanta with 58% and higher average damage per match then the Gato and Belfast put together. Our team had two Belfasts with 1 and 2 battles per. I tactfully suggested caution to our Belfasts (and one listened!), then listed the numbers and suggested ignoring the Nagato and focus firing on the Atl. For once, (cue the unicorn) the team listened. Their Belfast charged in and died quickly, then we kept fire on the Atl every time he stuck his nose out so he could't do much, ignored the Nagato (he was last ship alive when points ran out and lowest score). Gimme my star and Bob's your uncle. |

Was that the turret that was damaged in the explosion? May have been welded in place given the damage in the turret. |
