Lexington as a BC would have worse armor, less HP and fewer guns than Amagi. Even with fantasy upgrades, it would belong at tier 7.

I just love how the Royal Navy told the USN about their plans for Hood, a battlecruiser with almost battleship-level armor, with the recommendation that the Americans should build similar ships...and the USN response was to take their existing battlecruiser design and REDUCE the already inadequate armor. Even better was the idiotic "logic" involved in this decision: that building true fast battleships would render all the slow battleships (like the Standard Types) obsolete, and they didn't want that to happen. As if by refusing to build their own fast battleships, the USN could've somehow prevented other nations from building them. Especially since Hood already existed.

It's cobbled together from notes from the developers themselves during the alpha/beta. There used to be a wiki had everything cited.

Keep in mind that plans change: this IJN chart is the best example of that. Not everything is in concrete, but it gives us a good idea of where the developers intend to go.

The game has an official damage counter. There's a box you can check on the menu to enable it, along with detailed damage ribbons (so you can see how many bounces/shatters/penetrations you're getting)

As I've already stated, these were built on comments by the developers themselves. What I've posted are people condensing the old wiki which had everything annotated and updated as time went on.

You can find the NA thread here: http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/1697-what-we-know-about-ships-updated-30112016/

There's also an EU mirror thread.

I can't stress this enough. I posted a condensed version of a summary of second-hand information that is quite ancient. The only purpose it has is to show us what the developers were thinking at the time.

For example: I don't think they have plans to bring monitors into the game anymore.

I know it's always been here but seems worse now than before. Maybe all the players coming in.

Reminds me of that forum post that complained about ARP events since the main site had anime on it and he was mad he couldn't browse it at work since people will see it. Hilarious.

People get fucking weird about anime. I get shit for watching it from people I grew up with and watched it with me when I was a kid. Hell, one guy was trying to get me to watch Fullmetal Alchemist just a few months ago.

This game started it actually; I wanted to see what Arpeggio of Blue Steel is all about and got back into it.

How's this build for a Close in pushing Permanent North Carolina Captain? My Captain's at 18 already so I know I'll hit 19 come 6.0 but I'm torn between this and one that features intertia fuse.

Also, are stealth builds for the NC worth it? Currently I go AA heavy/Survivability so I use the Targeting Acquisition Mod but I saw with the CE + the Stealth mod you can get the NC down to 11.7 km Detectability and that's less than the Cleveland two tiers below.
>>
>>165208390
I did DE. Shots from 10km out for USN DDs just break and do fucking nothing for me.

From what they've said the beginner campaign is permanent, but the higher tier one may be changed at some point in the future, although it sounded like it's not going to be any time soon.

>>165208534
>Targeting Acquisition Mod
CE is infinitely better since it's much higher chance that you'll have someone in front of you to spot and if you're worried about DDs, well... get a map awareness sense IRL and don't charge into smoke, you're not a German BB

It's definitely worth it. That stealth is great for averting the usual constant HE spam or one click deletion you're going to have to face in the Tier X games you're going to be dragged into.

Whether you decide to snipe from long range, push in close, or do both, the stealth is a huge help and basically functions as easily allowing you to disengage or ignore poor odds.

Plus, constant ambushing never gets old.
>>
>>165208662
They probably need to get more ships ready but that would be a nice way to get early to mid tier premiums. It seems like the missions are very popular and people like them. I haven't seen much hate for them. At least not on NA.

They of course will leave high tier premiums for sale only.

>>
>>165208708

I mostly did it for Torpedos and to it's credit I VERY rarely get torped in my NC. It's maneuverable enough to dodge them, even good sized torp walls and that extra warning was nice. How is the a CE build? Like is it easy to "phase" in an out? My hesitation is mostly from that I always feel there's a DD between me and my target somewhere, even in close, and so there's really no way to ever take advantage of the stealth bonus.

I run stealth memes on every BB I play (all of the US and IJN ones, and my Tirpitz) and I wouldn't give it up for anything in the world. You'd be surprised at how much flexibility it gives you, especially in regards to disengaging from fights going badly or that you don't want to be a part of and being able to set up in the best possible position. Even on something like a Yamato you really don't have to be far back at all and you end up being unspotted a surprising amount of the time, especially if you're playing around terrain, having some DD just sit around and spot you forever is more something that happens when you're sitting back in completely open water.

Also for your other question, it does what it says on the box, all ships have their own spotting range, usually depending on the height of the ship which is why BBs can see across the map and DDs are a lot more limited, it's shown by the cone of vision on your minimap, and it's why spotted ships don't render when they're too far away from you.

But... so those are the ships that show up on the minimap but with dotted lines around them and not actually on screen? The ones that are usually (at least in my NC) about 30-35 km away? All that +20% does is show them? You can't even shoot those they're like 10-12 km out of range.

I'm not doing fire prevention. Even though I spend alot of time up front I just don't find it useful. On an NC, nose in and/or angled 90% of the time I find my front deck and forward superstructure are what get lite the most, so combining the superstructure into 1 doesn't really effect the way I play. And quite frankly the nerf to DE is a bigger help then the decrease fire chance. I'd rather have JoAT, which gives a flat cooldown bonus, especially since they are nerfing prem consumables. As it stands now, my Repair party coolsdown in 68 secs and DCP in 61 secs. That's why I don't mind fires as much, I can pretty much bang it on 1 and baring a potential torp strike, be very fine since it's a short 61 secs till I have it again, or basically 2 salvos.

Also I don't find, on the NC at least, to need BFT much. I added it last when I got my 16th point and I didn't notice a drastic increase in damage to enemy planes. The NC with AFT already can chew threw enemy planes stock, the added benefit from BFT just seems a bit lost, and now that it's 3 points it seems not worth it to me. 90% of CV captains will actively avoid sending planes over a T8+ USN BB *anyway* so it really just doesn't have a place.

+50% to range of assured acquisition of enemy ships.
+20% to spotting range.
+20% to the acquisition range of torpedoes.

No, it also increases proxyspotting range (when neither smoke or even islands keep you concealed, it's somewhere around 2km usually IIRC) and torp spotting distance

Yes, those are the ones.
It's also why some DDs can technically be within the concealment range of an enemy BB but still can't spot them because they don't have the spotting range.
But nobody gets it for that, for obvious reasons.
The torpedo spotting range and the assured detection range (in smoke or whatever, changes it from 2km to 3km) is the point of it.

I love JoAT, I know most don't, but as I said it gets my DCP down to 61 sec reload and Repair Party down to 68 secs. As far adrenaline rush, assume you're down at the max where you don't get dead from being breathed on, it knocks reload down to like 12-13 secs. While that sounds nice, it's too temperamental, and, for me at least, base my tactics around the 30 sec reload. Couple that with the stealth build which requires 20 secs to get stealthed, I just don't find it worthwhile, especially choosing it over EM or JoAT. I tried playing without EM for a few matche recently, to see if I could live without it, and I just can't.

Maybe if you hide in the back at max range you can but I try to keep myself in that 12-14 km sweet spot from my target which means I move alot which means I need EM.

Is JoAT better than HA, I mean one is 10% on DC which is 6-8 seconds with premium off the base, but other is 3/4 seconds (so just a fucking 3 second difference, it probably won't save you) but also knocks off several seconds off healpot/hydro... which again probably won't save you but gives more utility
>>
>>165211234

I mean, my basic attitude is if I can't dodge a torp with 2.5-3 km of warning, then I couldn't dodge it with 5 km of warning since it was probably a wall of hate from which no one can return.

If it's for a secondary build, I wouldn't. They are nerfing it down to 2% and it just won't make enough of a difference from 9% to 11% on the Monty's secondaries. IMO JoAT's will be the important T3 BB skill for USN, since they are nerfing prem consumables and the addition of Inertia Fuses means a alot more HE is going to be slung around, and even with the decrease fire chance, on some boats (namely jap CA's) it won't be that big of enough decrease to not still get set on fire every 3 second when brawling.

AA is funny at T8 vs. T10. I would never not take AA upgrades on a T8 BB since you can actually do something about sky cancer against 6-8-9ish CV's, but T10 CV's are more or less immortal. I did a full AA build on my Monty once and was barely able to shoot a full torp squad down from the Midway, much less the other one plus 3 bombers that shat on me. So, as a result, I wouldn't waste points on AA on a Monty, because her AA stock is good enough to destroy T8 and T9 planes, and no amount of upgrades help against T10's.

It's totally different that BG (which I fucking love btw). Imagine the ships have no real critical points, yes main bats/torps can be destroyed, but this functionally never happens now that they've buffed the shit out their health (I actually can't remember the last time this happened to me). It's really all about citadels, which is the mid section of the ship right at the waterline(ish). No command or control areas or anything like that. It would make going nose in suicidal... you know like it was in reality.

In my experience, secondaries on USN ships are kinda useless. Montana makes them work and so does Colorado (kinda), but NC and Iowa aren't so hot considering their tiers. However, with the exception of manly secondaries, they also overlap with the already lethal AA both ships get.

Krauts and Yamato are really where 2ndary builds shine.

I think US BBs just need a buff to their secondaries to make them on par with IJN and Germany. I'm really worried what British and Russian BBs will do to the US tree.
>>
>>165216237

Quite frankly I think all the T8's need a buff, especially the CA's. They should just allow them to mount all the mods like a T9-10 since they can see a T9 and 10. Like all the T8 CA's should get the healpot like the T9's do. The NO needs this badly, the NC needs that Accuracy mod, the Mogami needs the range mod for her 155's, and many many others would be more competitive at T8 if they could have the T9-10 stuff.
>>
>>165216421
T6 should get T8 mods because they can meet T8 :3

CAs have been getting buffs for more than one year and you're demanding T8 cruisers that sees T6 ships to equip T9/T10 upgrades. Get the fuck out.
>>
>>165216414
>I'm really worried what British and Russian BBs will do to the US tree.

Gut says the Brits are gona have INSANE alpha strike on their AP (since historically they used oversized bursting charges). And Russian BB's are gona probably be tanky as shit. Like neigh invulnerable.

When this happens they should just give the USN a little more accuracy, especially the NC. Yeah that accuracy buff a few months ago helped alot, but she needs a bit more tightening up on her spreed. The Amagi is just hands and feet better. More guns, better accuracy at all ranges (way better), not noticeably worse armor, and a bit faster. I'm fine with all that if they just gave the USN better accuracy. Even with the big hang time, I can live with that. My problem isn't missing completely due to bad leading, but having all my shots straddle the enemy on ever salvo.
>>

What is the Atago? Or even the Kutz? Or the Edinburgh? All have T9 features on a T8, 2 out of the 3 have heal pots. They don't DESTROY the game at T6.

I imagine only 2 things coming from Russian BBs. Either they're glass cannons like their cruisers or they have a ton of HP but weak guns. Though it probably won't be either and they'll be the best line and have some stupid weakness like AA or secondaries that don't matter.

I'm just curious what they'll look like. Tier X Russian ships are already large so a Tier X Russian BB will be a floating fortress.

I'm not as worried. I usually only play 'real' ships so I'm only interested in the few IRN Ships early tree, especially the imperatritsa mariya (family reasons). As far as fighting them is concerned, I suspect they will be no more annoying than the Jap boats, same way that yeah the Moskva is a pain, but I'd rather fight a team of 3 Moskva's than 3 Zao's.

I would assume he was speaking about some time before the across the board AA buff a few months back.

The one that made Texas' strongest aura go from 3.2-ish planes killed per second up to 6.2. If the 'one plane per second max per aura' wasn't a thing that is.

Otherwise if he was meaning since that point.

Actually I can live with all that other shit. Leave the citadel high, keep the rudder slow, it just means I have to be smarter about my movements. But the abysmal accuracy is just crippling. I got the Monty awhile ago and recently played all the way up to the Yamato and I can see why so many Jap BB players hate the Izumo; it's the NC. I mean that's what it is. Basically if you play it like a slightly faster/heavier armored NC it's hardly noticeable the difference. It's because you come from the Nagato, a great boat with sniper accuracy, to the Amagi which is somehow even better, and then all of a sudden you get USN style gunnery. That's why everyone hates it. It can't shoot straight, made all the more painful as it follows up the Amagi.

I don't want the NC to have BETTER accuracy than the Amagi, but at least equal. Look at the Colorado. It was HORRIBLE, mostly because of it's accuracy, but now its more or less identical to the Nagato. Really, the T7 BB's might be the most balanced of all the tiers. I really don't feel gimped in a Colorado, or over powered in a Nagato, and other than the horrid dispersion at long range, the Gne preforms great. All they need to do is give the T8 USN BB the same treatment. It's already more or less the same as the Amagi (slightly inferior in most ways but not in ways that matter greatly), except the gun accuracy, which I feel is exactly what's holding it back.

Actually there's a lot of cruiser AP that can shred through BB health bars if they give you broadside. Even shit like 152mm RU AP will start really adding up, espeically on something like a German BB.

I started American cruisers after getting Zao, Roon and Chapayev (I dont have intents to advance further on the latter 2 lines).

I used that 12 pt USN captain some mission gave out, propped him out and started my journey towards freedom and burger. Currently I'm halfway to New Orleans.

T1-2 who cares, free xpd them.

St Louis, its awesome but its what I expected. Its hillarious to kill RN cruisiers in 1-2 AP salvo, and this ship handed me my first Solo Warrior ever. I sold it fort now but might gonna buy it back.

Phoenix, now this was a huge suprise. If there were ships I ever regarded as non-threat, than it was this. And truth be told yeah its easy to be oneshot. But overall I'm very impressed with this neat little ship. Protected MM is massive, it feels so great to hop into a match knowing you wont be oneshot by T6 super dreadnoughts. My final WTR in it is little under 2000.

Omaha. Okay I dreaded this ship and in the first two battles I had in her I got citted from 16+ km. But otherwise iti a decently nimble firestarter with lotsa GUNZ. Was happy to finish grinding it, but wasn't a particularly bad experience.

Cleveland. Oh man, this ship was my nightmare back when I started in 2015 summer. Today? lol. The MM really fucks it hard. It could be still so great, and truly in some situations it still excells. but then a T8 BB looks at you and you lose half your hp. Sad!
If it was for a better MM I'd probably keep it, but not like this.

Pensacola. So yeah my expectations reached the lowest. I did know about its phat american AP and wanted to get a taste for it. Concealment is brutal, but frankly I found this ship quite viable even in a t9 match. On the downside it doesn't do better even in a t5 bottom match, since Königs and Kongous laugh at you. But when a BB shwos broadside, oh man dem 5-7k AP volleys. Very mobile ship, and the guns hut hard. A floating citadel sure, but so are any other t7 cruiser.
>>
>>165220821
If forts weren't so fucking deadly against DDs, bastion wouldn't be so bad.
This mode punishes camping shitters way more than ebincenter, where the point thing seems to be irrelevant for the most part.
If you dont contest caps in bastion you're generally fucked, so the mode is really objective driven, unlike ebincentre.
Also, it makes shit maps like "Atlantic" bearable, domination still the best mode though.

Graf Sper is really fun to be honest, baBBies dont expect those 8k salvos out of a cruiser.
Yesterday i had a match where i fought 3 other Graf Spees and a Konig and it was really ebin.
Grafs are very dangerous to their own kin due to bow armor getting overmatched by 280 mm, so these fights get particularly tense.
Also that accuracy is great.

I take the radar thingy because i dont use vigilance, so the torped spotting range is cool.
Also the assured acquisition range is good to piss off pesky DDs around islands or in smokes.

>>165245901
Atlanta before the Radar buff was a ship which really needed a good player behind it to work. You had to read the map carefully and you had to think more like a DD than a Cruiser. The shit wasn't bad it just wasn't something anyone could jump into and do well "cough Bisko cough" while other Cruisers were dangerous the Atlanta was seen as the "FUCK DESTROYERS" boat. With the Radar you have something that improves the Lanta's anti DD hate cannon while being useful to spot out other larger more dangerous ships.

Also i've noticed she's a good complement to a Fiji or Bongfast. Makes a sweet party of weed, radar n' dead bitches.
>>
>>165246496
Are you retarded?

Cruisers are meant to counter DDs. Any cruiser that has a skill that specifically counters DDs makes that cruiser much stronger.

Any ship with radar is vastly superior to any ship without radar.

And yet, Indianapolis, a premium that shipped in with radar is performing fairly on par with the other cruisers while a ship used to be terrible performs much better after the additin of radar.

What does the Atlanta have that makes it much suited to T7 battles and lets it perform better? They both have radar, so it can't be just that.

The ability to sit behind an island and shoot over it because of the rainbow arc. You don't get spotted so it's a win.

Rate of fire, more guns, better arcs for people who know how to use them.

The Atlanta is also a sleeker ship, able to evade shots better.

BBs can defend against DDs with secondaries and high alpha damage

Cruisers can defend against BBs with fire and mobility

Destroyers counter high impact sexual assault by cruisers with smoke, you take that away from them and they have no defense against them.

How does HE starting fires work?
If a shell fails to penetrate, can I light a fire?
So HE/AP will make more shells penetrate, therefore more chances to light a fire albeit a lower percentage chance

Because it's about the one thing in this game that's remotely difficult to get. Well, that and double strike, but that's more of random chance anyway.

On a side note: if they're going to create actual fireballs instead of sprites for firing guns, are they going to change the smoke particles for ARP ships? They're deliberately set to resemble the anime's aesthetics.

Kraken isn't that difficult in my opinion if you're not stupid and have a great game. The achievements that I personally find difficult to obtain are Solo Warrior (no CVnts allowed), Liquidator, and Witherer if you're not in a T9+ or in Kutuzov/Atlanta/Atago.

I personally have never seen a ship get Witherer in mid tier matchmaking, but then again, it just takes that right situation.

That was South Dakota.

Come to think of it Washington may be one of the only exceptions to this.

Though she still wasn't as decorated as her big sister and she actually collided with another battleship so then again maybe not.

RN cruisers are probably the least forgiving line in the game for newer players. I'd suggest going with one of the BB lines or maybe IJN cruisers first.

IJN cruisers are generally considered easier than others on account of having good guns, good armor, decent speed, and torpedoes, so you learn how to do a bit of everything you need to know how to do with cruisers with out being overly punished for mistakes, all the other cruiser lines require some kind of special tactics to make them really succeed.

I just unlocked the FDG but im at a crossroads.

I want to go full secondary meme with it like the Bismarck but frankly it is massive and slow to turn so CV will rape my ass more so and T10/9 matches seem to contain more camping while enemy DD have more torps to hit my big ass with.

Would i be better going for AA instead?
>>
>>165264485
the whole point of them was that you don't have to hit the target, but would that have any effect on sea-borne targets? Ground targets get shocks but liquid is not ground or is the effect the same?

Just keep it up. Biscos a good ship, just keep playing her and playing her and playing her. Learn her intracacies, how she handles, her most effective range. She may have a 21km main battery range, but it doesn't mean she's accurate to that. Do research, and if you get discouraged? Take a break. I've had matches where I get 10k damage with bisco, I've had matches where I get 100k+ with bisco, it's all focus and luck of the draw.

If you enjoyed the Bismarck secondaries you'll go nuts with the -20% secondary reload time module you can get on the FDG. As with the Bismarck, BFT and AFT buff your AA to the point where you can quite effectively shoot down planes. carriers are also quite rare at T9.

Concealment is nice.

>>165268710

What? The smoke lasts for minutes. I sometimes circle around islands, waiting for it to dissipate.
>>
>>165268810
yeah, but DDs have smoke laying active for 20-30 seconds, RN cruisers for 5, literally 2 puffs, so you need to be either stopped or going below 10 kts to be in smoke when you activate it
although if you get in friendly DD smoke you can just use yours as his is fading

sometimes 3 and sometimes 1, depending on the hemicycle of the mayan calendar and the whims of the smoke projector's machine spirit.

>>165268208
Because DDs are DDs. RN CLs are CLs. They have their own pros and cons. Personally, I think that a Cruiser like the RN ones isn't fitted to do a DD job, except a Gunship one. For all aspects, concealment, slimness, speed, AND Torps, DDs are better, and those fulfill their role, so, no need to replace them with a Cruiser.

Also, losing a DD is less pinishing in points and tactically.

Why is winrate so important in regards of stats?

If you're a solo player, isn't it mostly based on the skill of your allies and enemies?

I say mostly, not fully.
>>
>>165279521
actually the clan chat works fine, which is actually kind of useful, probably because it doesn't get the same number of people as the regular one
the NA atm is full and doesn't look like it's going to stop being that way either, but it really doesn't do much at the moment, outside of a chat and a tag on your name. clans are going into open beta test next patch though so there will probably be at least another NA one popping up to let other /wowsg/s have one too.
>>
>>165279797
yeah, but think of it this way: if you only have to lift one kilo of something vs if you have to lift 12 kilos. It's harder to do the second hence solo WR = skill
