In tier 5-6 ranked, Nurnberg is good for bullying DDs and cruisers, but i find that Aoba is more useful due to her superior ability to deal damage to BBs.
It also has more hp and it's generally more resilient since you don't have to expose your sides to use 2/3 of your armaments.
Though, the best way to win ranked is USN gunbote.

There's not much you can do against competent AS CVs. Strike Ranger depends heavily on the MM. If the MM put you against a competent AS player, well, just hope your team is able to carry themselves.

Also, I don't even know there's a replay feature in WoWS.

>>146186940
In WoWs both AP and HE have their uses and shine in different situations, although HE is used as default shell most of the time.

In WoT HE shells are a last stand measure, and very few tanks can effectively use HE.

>>146187037
It'll probably be a T6 prem CA with BB levels of turret traverse. It would be great at bullying other CAs and lower tier BBs, but would suck against DDs. Implementing the Deutschland as a BB would be silly unless you slide it in at T4.

>>146187037
>>also said the developers don't even know quite how to balance them
They should balance it as good as they balanced Atago. (better Mogami with heal) or Lultuzov. That would be perfect T8 cruiser trio.
>>146187405
Are you using Pentium 2 processor?

>>146187740
The triple 11" turrets on Scharnhorst have a 180° traverse time of 25 seconds.

The somewhat lighter turrets on the panzerschiff would probably be even faster.

>>146187770
>They should balance it as good as they balanced Atago. (better Mogami with heal) or Lultuzov. That would be perfect T8 cruiser trio.
I'm not too sure about that, I think Deutschland has to be tier 6-7 because

>heavy cruiser armor
>that speed/maneuverability
It would probably get torn to shreds at tier 8 because it's not a small target, and its offensive potential isn't particularly high for how low its defenses are.

>>146183856
Thats when you proceed to rush with your carrier into close range for and torpedo bomb things on the opposite side of the island you are hiding on before ramming the battleship that they sent to kill you

strike carrier was so much fun, you had to be super agressive to not get bullied by fighterbullies, so you were basically just a huge warbote throwing strike groups all over the plac ein all directions using your flood/burn damage to sink multiple ships at once and CCing enemys by keeping them circle-locked trying to avoid torps (from your empty planes :^) )

>>146188284
That's not what WG thought when they made up the turret traverse rates for the Yorck or IJN DDs.

>>146189163
It wouldn't really fit at T8. Only 6 guns, and two turrets. Whenever it loses a turret, which aren't armored enough for high tiers, it will be even worse than ognevoi.

And WG has already proven they don't have an issue with bringing big high tier guns to lower tiers. See, Molotov. Graf Spee would fit perfectly at T6.

I hope we get her at the same time Bong cruisers are released. Muh Exeter vs Spee duel.

>>146188935

>>146189526
Well, 26 knots top speed does kinda suck, but circle radius is completely made up parament. WG can turn her in T8 German Pensacola (with heal, of course), for example.

Aaaah, so that's how it works, sorry, I was completely unaware it's a modifier, I thought shell dmg was min-max range where min would be overpen and max would be citadel. Thanks for that m8

>>146191191
Wow fuck off WG

>>146190827
Oh there you are.

I did my first few gunboating games in Hatsu without AFT. It's workable, but indeed AFT does make life easier.

Since harassing cruisers it's much more difficult (though not impossible), I focused mostly on getting cap points and fighting other DDs. Hatsu gets the advantage of seeing Minekazes, Mutsukis, Gnevnys and Ognevois, which are very easy to bully. USN DDs are considerably dangerous, but to fight them you need to run away and increase the gap so their guns are not as effective. At best you sink them, at worst you run away.

How many points left to get AFT?

>>146191484
I can't, I don't actually have Ibuki or Fubuki yet...

>>146191630
But isn't that for citadel overpens? Regular overpens on the "empty" hull/superstructure would do less than 460.

>>146191803
overpen --10% works even with fully saturated ship sections
regular pen -- 15% into HP of this section+ 15% into total ship HP. (At least that's how I understand it) So after saturation -- 15% into total ship hp. Basically damage is halved.
Citadel -- 100% of listed damage.
Unlike WoT here at least there is no damage brackets.
HE is somewhat different story, I only know that it has penetration 1/6 of gun caliber. (and doesn't ricochet. Unlike AP, that can bounce, and to overmatch armor need 14.6 times difference IMO this looks retarded) And that if you hit citadel you'll also get full damage.
>>146192192
>How many points left to get AFT?
IDK, show your capitain build. It's a capitain tier 4 skill second from left

>>146192405
10% overpen mod doesn't count actual place where shell landed. Be it superstructure, bow or citadel, you will always get 10%
>>146192192
By the time you get to bucky, you should have capitain with 10 points, even if you respeced for silver

>>146192426
>IDK, show your capitain build. It's a capitain tier 4 skill second from left

Because AFT used to affect the guns, so it would have closer to a 17km range, which means combined with its ROF you can set things on fire. It also had a better shell speed. Also, because of the engagement ranges, it was a lot easier to dodge shells.

Could someone explain the logic behind overpenetration to me?

"Your gun is so fucking massive, that your shell punched a hole the size of a fucking car through this dingy little destroyer instead of exploding inside it. Therefore, it did next to no damage.". Does the fucking hole in the enemy ship not count as damage? It should at least cause flooding or something.

>>146202504
>"Your gun is so fucking massive, that your shell punched a hole the size of a fucking car through this dingy little destroyer and flew out the other side without exploding because the fuse was set for exploding after going through battleship armor and not through a tin can. Therefore, it did next to no damage."

>>146202504
>It should at least cause flooding or something.
1) underwater penetrations do not cause floodings
2) hiting smokestack of Shimikaze should totally cause flooding. Is fun and balance mechanic

And Bismarck was discovered in 1989 and we have wonderful pics of it.

Voyager flew by Jupiter in 1979, and we have great color photos of it.

Explain to me how a 16" hull through the ship's mess hall causes any amount of significant damage to the ship's battleworthiness.

>>146203097
It can set soy sauce on fire.

>>146202504
Because thats fucking stupid from a gameplay perspective just like every fucking HE shell having a fire chance is.

It's also stupid because there's fucking nothing vital in unarmored sections of ship, so it doing anything other than the slice of damage it does makes no sense.

Overpenetrations are only a problem for shitters and the eternally salty.

>>146203573
Overpens aren't the problem; having RNG fuck you over so that a full salvo of 16" shells into the broadside of a NC only gives you 3780 damage (3 overpens) is.

>>146202504
>underwater overpens causing flooding
Sure, just another way to blow that rep and having to wait another minute for it to come up, meanwhile you'll just get set on fire a couple times and start flooding again from another underwater overpen

>>146203573
>Overpenetrations are only a problem for shitters and the eternally salty.

This desu.
BB's already do tons of damage. Even on matches where I feel like my shots keep missing or doing overpens and feel like I've done no damge, I end up with 80k+ damage thanks to the accumulated effect of 4k damage salvoes.

I get 67% WR in battleships anyway. I don't have issues with their damage capabilities.
I do have issues with fire hoses and the slow, stale gameplay at T10.

>>146203760
Not really. NC's citadel is below the waterline, so the chances of hitting from the side at certain ranges is inherently low. If you hit the hull but fail to pen the armored deck, which is a very well armored 140mm or so, then that's not really RNG, that's just a consequence of static values working as they do.

>>146204056
There are different types of hits besides overpens and citpens, y'know.

After a certain WR threshold you should begin to blame RNG less. Because that's when you realize RNG both works for and against you, and in the end your skills in maneuvering and map awareness will dampen and make up for bad RNG.

If you are above 65% WR and still blame RNG for everything then you're an entitled little shit who thinks he deserves to win 100% of his games because he's an special snowflake.

Push objectives, focus cruisers first instead of BB's, disengage when you find yourself in a slow, lengthy slug out into a corner of the map with another BB instead of pushing or helping your team win.

This is a thing that commonly happens in WoT too: You end up with high damage and low WR because you farmed damage on stuff that was not important (at least not at the moment) to winning the match. So you end up with high damage but no results. Or you are the last surviving tank/ship, so nobody else can "stealing" damage from you while you retreat and farm damage that will not contribute to victory in any way.

First of all, I'm not discussing the pros/cons of all-or-nothing armor. I think it's a good idea that makes sense.

But using the Kirishima vs Washington battle as an example is a rather poor argument, because the ships were not equals by any metric.
Kirishima got curbstomped because she was using 14" guns against a much heavier, modern battleship designed to withstand fire from 16" guns. In turn, Kirishima's armor, even if she had been using an all-or-nothing scheme, would've never withstood 16" fire, because she simply didn't have the displacement to hold that kind of armor.

But I wasn't talking about Washington's part in the battle? I was using South Dakota as an example, not Washington. If South Dakota hadn't lost power immediately, then the outcome would have been even more one-sided. But she did, so that allowed the armor to be tested to the extreme, a test it passed. Like I said, Washington's part in the battle is not relevant because Kirishima never stood a chance against a fully operational modern battleship.

Because she was never designed to penetrate that kind of armor. Guns capable of penetrating 16"-proof armor was not a thing in the early 1900's.
That's why it's not a fair comparison.

Yes, it does.

The RNG isnt even bad in this game. It's nowhere near strong enough to override actual player skill and input.

The only thing keeping it from espurts is watchability which no esports manages to achieve and popularity

>>146209234
fuck you, WG wanted a competitive game and wanted to put none of the competitive tools or effort into building a competitive game. So they took a casual game and just said "hey we're hosting competitive shit on it" even though there were no competitive elements to the game

Even then half this bullshit with RNG isn't skill based at all

Fighters dogfighting isn't fucking working with RNG shit which is honestly the biggest reason I hate doing carriers because they're so poorly balanced.

there you go.

The fact that you can miss entirely even if your input is spot on is completely skill avoiding

>>146209972
It actually is, you just happen to have increased fighter strength but the entire thing is still RNG. Whats even worse RNG is where yours and an enemy fighter squad get glued together and theres nothing you can do about it because their dogfight is entirely RNG. What skill is there in any of it?

AA has no skill input what so ever either and all thats RNG.

>>146209997
>The fact that you can miss entirely even if your input is spot on is completely skill avoiding
There's more to skill than just twitch snpashooting. Those are the parts that are entirely skill-reliant and make up for RNG. Positioning both on the individual and tactical level is where this gets interesting, but a shitter would never comprehend this.

If shots were 100 accurate it wouldn't be a naval combat game anymore. Next, people would be asking for ships to be faster so they could pull off the ebin skillful maneuvers and make the game more interesting.

>>146210575
>Those are the parts that are entirely skill-reliant and make up for RNG
This actually means that whether or not you get a citadel hit is also entirely RNG since dispersion RNG and whether you get a hit or not is RNG.

>Remove RNG

>>146211014
>>Cruisers get deleted the instant they are spotted
or if you turn you never get hit by slow ass archs ever at all

>>146211069
You just need to stagger fire from individual turrets across the easily predictable path. And since every shot now falls pinpoint on the desired spot, you hit that cruiser citadel without issue.

It just makes the game worse. Makes sense, since twitchshooter esports are the most boring kind of game to watch.

accuracy RNG doesnt completely override player skill because accuracy RNG doesnt dictate where your ship is and what its doing. Positioning and teamwork are more important than individual performance. This is why a randomly assembled group of total shitters that do things like showing off their broadsides or zerg rushing can't beat a well coordinated team of uncums. RNG surprisingly doesnt actually have that kind of influence.

The occasional total miss of a correctly led salvo from one ship in the fleet doesn't have a significant impact in the context of all the weight an entire team puts out.

Image is just meant as an example of MUH TEAMWERK and MUH TACTICS. It wouldnt work ingame because no one gives a shit about shooting over teammates.

>>146211694
>brings up an irrelevant point
>w-w-wow haha sarcasm

>>146211721
It wouldn't work in-game because gunnery battles were really in the context of fleet maneuvers and formations, none of which really exist in game. Real-life naval gunnery was inaccurate enough that bringing all your available guns to bear was more important than MUH ARMOR ANGLING.

Real-life fleet maneuvers designed to cater to real-life military objectives are a poor fit for 4-cap Estuary fought between 12 randoms per side.

I haven't played since they added German cruisers, is this game still shit?

>>146212968

Scharnhorst AP is going to be very similar to Wyoming's in terms of muzzle velocity with only a 6m/s difference in speed, but its going to be lighter and have lower krupp, so generally it will perform worse.

And at T7

So I guess its really just going to be an anti cruiser BB, which should be pretty cool. I hope it has accurate guns.

Well. That's exactly what it was, really. Now if only WG can program in some merchant shipping for me to shoot.

You're really just gonna have to play that thing like a big cruiser, complete with long-range HE spam against BBs. With a spotter plane, would it be able to invisifire? I don't know the formula for change in detection after firing.
>13.1km non-firing surface detection range with camo and CE
>23.9km gun range with spotter aircraft up

It'd be neat if you could bring a little taste of Zao-like flamethrowers to bully tier 5s.

>>146216683
>>146217423
Depending on the tier and nation, your range is going to be 3km- ~8km.

Also, torps have even lower range.

>>146217423
Read the tooltip. It's just what it says:
increases detection of torpedoes to that number.
increases absolute detection of ships to that number (you detect them even if they're behind an island or in smoke, as long as they're within that radius.)

>>146217423
There are two circumstances under which to use HA:
Expecting incoming torps
Enemy ships in smoke nearby

You can check the max range of HA by hovering over it in port.

As the shell loading in the handling rooms required 50 seconds, the maximum sustained rate of fire was one round per gun every 50 seconds. However, because of the necessity of firing wing and center guns of turrets in different salvos [in order to reduce dispersion problems], the firing rate was further reduced to one round every 60 to 65 seconds. Even with modifications, the Director of Naval Ordnance considered it extremely doubtful that a greater rate of fire than one round of every 40 seconds for the first four rounds and one round every 45 seconds thereafter would actually be achieved.

5) The all forward design of these ships proved to have disadvantages during their firing trials. Firing "A" and "B" turrets on forward bearings damaged many weather deck fittings and made conditions in the mess deck areas directly below very uncomfortable. The muzzles of "X" turret overhung the deck at nearly all angles of train and elevation. As no astern firing was possible, the superstructure had been cut away to allow large training arcs, but this feature also had its drawbacks. Considerable damage was inflicted to the superstructure and bridge whenever "X" turret was fired abaft the beam, with the bridge becoming almost uninhabitable when the guns were fired at close to 130 degrees and at high elevations. It was suggested that bridge personnel might be moved to the conning tower when "X" turret was firing at angles of 120 degrees or more. Baffles and other additions eased the problems to the bridge area, but they by no means solved them nor dealt with the weather deck problems. Peacetime restrictions on arcs of fire were instituted as a result. The training arcs shown in the table above are the maximum possible arcs, but the actual firing arcs as restricted were probably significantly less. Not everyone felt that the blast effects were too severe. For example, Constructor H.S. Pengelly made the following report after witnessing a firing exercise aboard Rodney on 16 September 1927:

During the firing of 'X' and 'B' abaft the beam, I remained on the middle line at the after end of the Admiral's platform. The firing from 'B' was not uncomfortable, but there was considerable shock when 'X' fired at 130 degrees or slightly less, but at 40 degrees of elevation. The shock was aggravated by one not knowing when to expect fire, but apart from this point, it is understood that the blast recorded at the slots on the Admiral's platform were about 9psi and on the Captain's platform about 11psi. It was noted that 10 degrees more bearing aft made all the difference to the effect experienced on the bridge.
The bridge structure was, in itself, entirely satisfactory, and I was informed by the officers occupying the main DCT forward, that this position was extremely satisfactory, and they would have been ready, throughout the whole of the firing, to fire again in 8 to 10 seconds.

The only damage was to the signal platform - 1 x 18in projector at the fore end - glass smashed, and shutter of another broken.

On the Captain's bridge, four windows broken, a few voice pipes loose. On Admiral's bridge, four windows broken. Number of electric lights put out of action. General damage was little, and the extra stiffening inboard after Nelson's gun trials appear to have functioned well.

Now I know that history isn't your best subject but the nelsons were the first of the treaty focus BBs its contemporaries would have been the Colorado and Nagato. The KGV's contemporary would have been the south dakotas and north carolinas. The lion was ment to be the iowa's contemporary but it stalled because of this little thing about the UK being in a literal fight for their lives with germoney at the time unlike america who could be safe in their ports eating ice cream and burgers allday.

worked fine tbqh. I guess your fine with the glass cannon that was the norcal with only 12in of belt vs the KGV's 15in. Overall British ships were much better armored their guns were definitely a weakness, but its a tradeoff and its also about intended usage but that might be a tad advanced for you. I understand as an american you have your poorly educated jingoism but your ships had trade offs. Yet their is no doubt that the lions when they were completed would have been better all around than the iowa

>>146225816
So, according to the autism logic you're using, if someone with no knowledge in physics hands you a book about the relativity theory that you're trying to refute with no actual evidence, it means that the former theory is invalid and you can go on pretending your shit is right without providing any proof?

Nice non equivalency their friend You could always head over to the local community college and fix that habit of opening with fallacies of yours. Also you seem to not understand that I'm calling you out for not actually reading your data in full. You should have been able to catch that the recorded rate of fire of the rodney outpaced the testing reports from the 20's you should have read further about the nelson before even trying to do a "gottcha". The fact is you were to lazy to read and educate yourself and were far to desprate to "lmao xd bong BTFO deal with the copy pasted" to realize.

The site from which the data about the rof was posted does not mention any improvement regarding that aspect and also states the actual rof registered during the sinking of the Bismarck which again is in line with the data posted.
If the alleged book from which the data has been extrapolated mentions that the rof was improved how comes that the site, which claims are based on that book, says nothing about that?

As it's not very practical to read a whole fucking book not even published anymore just to refute your unsupported claim, could you be so kind to post the claim that states that Nelson class rof was better than what was posted given that the burden of proof is on you, or could you kindly fuck off otherwise?
