T7 planes will die against a North Carolina, and have heavy losses against a Colorado; that is, if you try to manual drop right into point blank range.
Drop from a bit farther away. Yes, you can still easily hit them with 4 torps.

It is always entertaining to observe the behavior of submarines when you get within their 'safe' range (Torps have minimum arming ranges.)

They never seem to consider that ramming could happen..

already averaging at 60k-70k dmg per battle, cant wait for new mexico

>first salvo with new york was a devastating strike
it's like RNGesus spoke to me at that time

Why are teammates sometimes such brain dead idiots that they pay absolutely no attention to whats going on around them and just sail in a straight line? I had torpedos in the water attempting to hit a fubuki for 6+ km, missed the fubuki, and an allied cruiser just speeds his bow directly into them. If he was looking ahead of him for just 1 second out of the 20 seconds after I fired them he would have seen them coming and easily turned away. Allied torps give you a long ass warning for where they are nearby yet people just completely ignore it.
>b-but you should never shoot from behind your allies!!
No, that is not the fucking issue here. Allies should not be morons and turn into torpedos that have been in the water for over 7km toward an enemy frontline giving them plenty of time to know they were fired. Especially tunnel vision cruisers.

>>124020921

What does the Tashkent do better than the Kiev? Is it practically the same ship only with more hp?

>>124036867

if both are fully upgraded with the proper modules:

significantly more hp, better concealment (with the concealment module)

same gun armament, but 8km range and relatively fast reloading torpedoes, weaker hitting though (stronger than american ones anyway), still can have 4km strong-hitting ones as an option, 3x3 launchers vs 2x5

comparable but slightly worse rudder

noticeably bigger

significantly worse turn radius

>>124038032
also to fix it a bit
>(stronger than american ones anyway
not really true, benson can have stronger hitting torps

and also tashken has slightly (0.7km) less gun range but it doesn't really matter since you have aft anyway

>still win

So, /wowsg/, how are the US cruisers in Warships now? I haven't played since 0.4.1.

Would it be better to start my way up again and go through the German cruiser line?

>>124048727
IJN

>>124048810
>IJN

I have yet to get past Furutaka.

>>124048727
IJN > KM/USN

Honestly, at range, there isn't really much difference between the three lines. The dealbreaker is the presence of torps on IJN. KM ships have torps too but have paper armor.

>>124048727
Horrible, but still, I find them fun. I'm on the Baltimore now. CVs are almost nonexistent so the AA is rarely of significance but when it is, it's satisfying. She feels nimble, and the armour is great to bully other cruisers, but BB will penetrate you anytime, anywhere. Guns are pretty average I feel but up close you can rape cruiser shitters with AP. A lot of the time you will wish you had torpedoes, the absence of which is not made up in any other aspect of the USN cruiser tree.

>>124049282
When I stopped, I was on the Baltimore, so I'm almost there from the Dank Memes.

>>124049282
Baltimore is good, better than the Ibuki and could be better than the Des Moines.

>>124048869
How fucking bad can you be?

>>124049705
More like I spent almost all my time going up the USN Cruiser line and had the IJN line as a side project before I stopped.

>>124049489
No, not really. Just look at her win rate, go to warship stats right now and sort the ships by win rate and you'll notice that Baltimore is the worst ship in the entire game in terms of winrate, with 46%. Ibuki (and Roon) do about 14k more damage than her too. She's bad.

Is ramming just based on HP like wows or do they factor in speed and direction?

>>124039478
i dunno why they made her tier 4 when she should have been tier 5 at least

anyway she does have an unique disadvantage, she is the only tier 4 bb which can (and will) be matched vs tier 6 bb

>>124058326
How is ramming only HP-based in WoWS? I did a passing scrape against an enemy BB with my Kongo and only took nominal (<500 HP) damage. The same applied to the other ship.

>>124060753
passing scrape != ramming
Ramming implies the bow of one ship impacts the other

>>124060753
Damage done via ramming is equivalent to the max amount of HP you have.

>>124060820
What angle is that defined as? Our collision involved the two bulges hitting each other. I bled about 5 kts when it happened.

>>124058326
To reply to you.. in WoWS it seems(seemed, haven't played in a few months.. other than a CV match, and a mut match.) to apply your max HP to their max HP... or something!

In steel ocean, speed is a factor, it is NOT just 'whoever has the highest max HP wins' BUT size/displacement does seem to play some aspect, but not sure how much (IJN with its Well Fed Subs can ram away 1,2, or 3 injured german or american tiny subs before finally dying. 1, 2, or 3 being of course based on critical hits, on both you and them. Lucky on lower hitpoint targets = 3... unlucky and you're dead on the first go.)

I ram whenever possible, but torpedo hits are of course preferable.. (One upgraded/max torp can occasionally nuke them if it criticals or hits an important spot, otherwise leaves them with very little health, occasionally bleeding out, to where a ram should do very little damage to you)

A T-Bone ram seems to deal the most damage for ship on ship action but also has the highest backlash. (Due to if iit doesn't kill her.. you now have almost a full broadside of guns trained on you.) BUT THAT IS IRRELEVANT for subs..(Because they don't have much going on in their middle.)

An ' L ' or '<' '>' seems to be optimal

You can ram the side of their nose if you want to break try to break their torps,
Or ram her flanks if you are Lewd and want to leave her crippled...

>>124079858
I've been wondering, does depth charge work on surfaced subs or does it have to be under the water?

>>124079858
Thanks.

I found it very funny that I could always kill the first battleship to reach me in my IJN CVs if I was prepared for them, by ramming. It's probably realistic, but with CVs taking a glass cannon role its very satisfying to run over a BB that can't escape you because you're the fastest and biggest ship type in the game.

>>124080007
I routinely surface just as someone is about to throw a depth charge at me and I don't think depth charges do damage on surfaced subs

>routinely surface
I'm glad most people are too retarded to do that so I can just instantly delete those subs.

>>124079858
Eh... it is a tricky window of opportunity if the sub is surfacing (or diving)

IF you approach a sub, it begins surfacing as you pass over and is not fully 'lifted' out of the depths.. your DC's might do damage (Possibly reduced? not sure.)

Much like if a sub dives from light-blue to Dark blue (Shallow vs Deep) torps occasionally hit in the transition between the two. There is a half second-1.5 second transitional window on most subs I've seen.

example: you hit the surface button and it counts down.. 5,4,3,2,1 during that time you could hit escape and cancel surface. at 0 you can no longer cancel it and the actual surface process occurs..
SO a dive is more like: 5,4,3,2,1,0 *ship is locked in surfacing*,0.5/1/1.5 *Complete* and your cannons/AA unlocks (OR torps if you were surfacing from a deep dive)
(0.5/1/1.5 due to it varying on subs/which transition it was.. DEEP to shallow, Shallow to surface)

OTHERWISE
>>124080385
what ^ said. On 100% 'completed' surfaced subs. DC's just spray them with water and cause them to laugh, sometimes in real life.

ARG! Wrong target. Meant for
>>124080007

And based on the cut-away shown, you'd want to attempt to shoot the front half/quarter of a sub when possible (Easier said than done, especially on american/German tiny subs.)

Red is a german sub, White was me, Yellow was an enemy IJN sub who Deep Dived in an attempt to call off our little fun 3-way grappling session. (And that torp top left was a third enemy Sub who was jealous and fired at our group.. killing the Yellow as he resurfaced to shallow.)

As you can see, With a ram that was basically full speed with me brushing the german on the rear.. he lost about 50% hp and I am down 14.5% hp and of that 14.5%, some was also lost to the enemy IJN who slapped my rear.
(That was a match on the first day when I wasn't even sure sub-surface ramming was a thing.)

>>124081639
So it's always better to be the rammer unless the target is too huge for you?

Also, does diving on another sub cause you to deal damage?

its quite sad that CVs at fucking tier 5 is still capable of deleting ships from the map

can they just get rid of this fucking class until AA can at least SHOOT PLANES DOWN

That(Sub crushing a sub by diving while above it), I do not know, I'll try and do so in matches today.

I know I tore apart a poor I-19 when we'd been locked in a side embrace when I'd been about to run out of oxygen. Smashed the surface button and the timer counted.. Instead of surfacing, a nice little "KILL" popped up as I myself died(not from lack of oxygen.).

So I know for a fact that you can kill with that(Yet to duplicate.)
Was mentioned two threads back "ctrl+F 'mood'"

yes. if you click your commander and "select a commander"

You see all your commanders, and on the top right "Squad, Set Squad, Recruit" Click 'set squad'
On the left you see 'Squad Selection' there are tabs (Don't know Default names as I have renamed them all.) Squad 1, 2, 3 ,4 ,5 ,6

Set up a tab how you want it and 'save squad'

click return and click 'squad' You will see

its the perfect way to play this game like a huge asshole!

You think your game better Tovharish :^))))

To be honest I agree with you.. Sekrit Dokuments))).png is not entirely proper for Chinese game. Just failing to find the image I had WANTED to use instead of Sekrits.

At what point does your power level get so high that you think this is a perfectly okay thing to do?

A power level so high thats only obtainable by autists.

Why would anyone troll about it. The NM is amazing.

>>124115186
Fusou is better at killing other ships, Mexico is better at killing Fusou's.

That's generally how burger/nip bbs are until tier 10. The armor of burgers beat the range of nips in a one on one. Kongou was an anomaly because it had the speed of a cruiser with the range of a bb.

>>124118593
but new mexico can destroy cruisers better than fusou

How would it be if WG partnered up and we started having monthly challenges to defeat Abyssal (super)bosses in WoWs?

anyone who plays SO, can you look up bitbybit

just tel lme if somebody with that name exists

Imagine that thing's giant jaw taking a bite out of your citadel once you get too close, or its hands ripping the turrets out of your hull.

Nope. Nobody with that name exists, so hurry up and download the game before somebody does ^. Note you can have at least one space in a name, possibly more

>>124119794
Only if they also replace every boat model with little girls and change the name to World of Kantai. But the game really needs a better co-op mode. The AI is already more threatening that most players. I was hoping the Arpeggio collab would have you go up against a couple laser firing super ships, but even some kind of convoy escort/ambush mode would be great.

Is Nagato a memeship?

>>124020921
>>124023837
A little late but High Alert is substantially better

Matches on average now don't last long enough for you to use all 4 heal pots. Either you aren't taking enough damage in the first place to use all of them or you die because the cooldown is god awful.

>>124126403
you're doing something very wrong

you need the extra charges, high alert is a meme

The real question is, why isn't some form of aim assist in the game by default?

It's not like shell travel is instantaneous in this game, if you sail in a straight ass line for 6-12 entire seconds while someone is shooting you, then you deserve to be hit. If you sail broadside to anything with guns that can hurt, you deserve to be hit. If you don't angle yourself to ships you deserve to be citadel penned every time.

The only thing this fucks over is some DDs, but that's only because DDs are already 50% larger in the game than they were IRL. Shrink them back down to size and suddenly they are back on track.

This game has always been more about the broader sense of how you use your ship strategically and tactically, not about how well you can just use the vehicle itself like in WoT. Requiring people to git gud at simply leading shots is stupid, they should be much more concerned with predicting how the target is going to react, not the targets speed and velocity. Giving everyone an aim assist frees up mental resources for everyone to preform more strategic maneuvers and better tactics.

>>124124402
that artist makes great botesluts

>>124127286
>The real question is, why isn't some form of aim assist in the game by default?
Because they took it out in closed beta. Duh.

Its like you werent even there. But that cant be. That'd make you newgard as fuck.

>>124127005
If you need the extra health that badly then use the flag. Otherwise shaving off 8-12 seconds from your damage control is a life saver, especially now that flooding does so much more damage to high tier ships, and that WG seems to want to make flooding even more damaging but more unlikely.

>>124127286
well, we have torpedo aim assist
btw the very word aim assist is invented by wg developers, there is a script named aim assist in the game files, i suppose it's the torpedo lead indicator

>>124127575
they gave away such a ridiculous amount of anti-flood flags (1 for every ranked win till 1st of december, dozens for acquiring ranked ranks) that it is not even funny to whine of flooding

>>124127543
I know it was there but you had to mod it to re-enable it since it was officially taken out after the Alpha but was still present in the game files for the CBT.
