  1. Scharnhorst main gun better pen or more accurate guns OR that the citadel damage the scharnhorst does is the same as the graf spee. 8400 graf 7400 I think for scharnhorst.

    • I agree, Scharnhorst was historically equipped with an improved version of the Graf Spee’s guns firing a heavier shell. It makes no sense that Graf Spee has superior AP Alpha from a weaker gun.

    • AtlasAS7D it was 8400 during ST, and Scharnhorst was OP as hell. So they nerfed it to 7400.

    • +I Gusti Praba So same guns as a tier 6 a tier high in a game where overmatching is everything? whats your point that it would be op to be consistent?

    • Well Notser was asking for ships that need a buff to become relevant again… Scharn is one of the best t7 ships currently, she doesn’t need MORE strength.

    Out of cold and foggy night came the British ship the Hood
    And every British seaman he knew and understood
    They had to sink the Bismarck, the terror of the sea
    Stop those guns as big as steers and shells as big as trees

  3. Pls show your Hood build 🙂

  4. Roma or Le Terrible. Both ships are horrifically angering to play. I’d say that 70% of Roma’s shells don’t hit the target. If they do hit the target, there’s an 80% chance that all you do is overpen. I’d suggest improving the sigma to 1.9 or 2.0.
    Le Terrible is like a Russian DD without smoke, heal, shell speed, or turret angles. Because it has no defensive abilities besides speed, it can’t really do any damage. I’d simply give it smoke or heal so it can deal more damage and have a more defined identity.

    • i have the roma and would say that im pretty good in it and i disagree with a sig buff. initially it had 1.9 pre-release and wg decided to reduce it to 1.8, i dont agree with the method of balancing but it is what it is. The reason why i say i disagree is the fact that with roma you get close and i mean steath cruiser close, she is not a bb in the sense that she hunts ca’s, she hunts bb’s, from how i play her she is a great example of an anti bb bb. the reason why i say this is that if you’re annoyed by the dispersion shoot at things you can hit i.e the largest target possible, if you are over penetrating, shoot at armour that slows it down ie bb armour. in a roma i dont bother with dd’s and ca’s for the most part, i use the stealth to catch bb’s unaware on their broad and then wallop them with a 10k volley, even when they go wild, the target is big enough to catch shells, it has enough armour to slow them down.

    • Roma is totally fine though?

    • +Naruse Utaha honestly, im not sure, i can agree that it’s frustrating, but i think that’s got more to do with how this game works than anything, saying it’s dispersion is a problem is literally almost every bb. let’s say we give it 1.9 and the guns become more consistent, now you can somewhat long range shoot, now it can do 10k + volleys on bb’s at t8 reliably, and wallop bow in ca’s that you can overmatch plus, you can more likely hit dd’s, which is not a good thing since your shells are fast, very very fast, and roma should not be punishing dd’s. so is roma fine atm, im inclined to say yes, but that doesn’t mean it isnt frustrating.

    • Maybe i am an exception but i terribly enjoy Terrible. You do not need smoke – it is a gun and run ship. Not intended to be a smoker like a Ruski. It is good to have a different ship. If you do not like it, play the russians.

    • I’ve been enjoying Roma because that thing is tanky as hell.

      The dispersion sure is trolly at long range but the concealement allows you to sneak-up to around 13km or just let you pick a target. Usually at that range I get proper dispersion as well and you can disengage and drive people mad.

      The most frustrating with Roma in my opinion is the lack of range and the fragile guns that gets knocked out when you need them the most.

  5. Vanguard needs something to help her face off against Bismarcks, Richelieus, North Carolina in close range. Everything has either more guns, bigger guns or more secondaries. I’d say, give her secondaries the accuracy and reload of Massachusett’s. She will still have less secondaries and shorter range than the MA, but maybe they can provide a bit of moral support in CQD. That way they also don’t make Vanguard OP at long range, which would happen if they buff the main battery.

  6. Graf Spee , some better gun handling, sigma , dispersion ..

  7. Any premium carrier as carriers aren’t fun at all at the moment…

  8. If they buffed premium Hood they may buff premium blyska ?

  9. First ship that comes to mind is Blyskawica. She absolutely needs some love. Maybe better torps or a heal.

  10. Belfast, needs a heal, as it stands it’s just miserable

  11. Blyskawica needs a buff IMO. She just cant compete with her stats wise vs the other destroyers at her teir.

  12. For me, an avid B.B. player, the Roma is a pretty solid ship. However it fails to be competitive simply due to the horrific accuracy of its guns, which disappoint every single salvo. Buffing the sigma to 1.9 or 2.0 would put the ship in line with similar others such as the Massachusetts of the North Carolina. I just hope that when the tech tree Italian bbs come out, that their sigma is not so goddamn awful.

    • 1.9 would be enough for Roma. Historically she had poor dispersion and in-game she has a ton of other strengths, I think 2.0 would be too much.

  13. When will WG buff the German BB’s? They are shittier patch after patch and everytime WG is adding ships.

  14. I love German BB’s but I want a better secondary build.. Maybe a consumable that is like defensive fire but for secondaries?

  15. Blysk needs a buff! Used to be my favourite canoe. . .

    • I haven’t bothered to play her since she got nerfed. Not what I payed for.

    • To be fair she was never nerfed… they just removed the stealth firing mechanic she was built around… but if they gave her better torps or a better detection range I could see her being relevant again. But as it is the poor Blys has been abandoned in most of our ports because she just isn’t a decent ship for the tier.

    • blysk has been power creep so i think a slight buff to reload of gun and and detection and it would be a good ship again

    • Pewterschmidt23 Lord

      +vincent leung i dont mind the blyska but it has 6.8km seas detection its absoloutely rubbish

  16. Anyone else experiencing terrible lag after the update ?

  17. Nanchisan Nanchisan

    The main problem with secondary builds is how expensive it is and how anti meta is Nothing we can do, unless we get Massachusetts treatment

  18. I think tirpitz secondarys should get buffed to be as strong as the Massachussets sec.

  19. I just use HE shell’s instead of ap and it does work out for me (atleast in ranked)

  20. The German BB line needs a sigma buff really bad.

  21. USS Indianapolis – enhanced survivability module? Better rate of fire? Something!

  22. I like fdg as it is, better secondaries than massa would be nice, though, for it makes German BBs unique and stand out more.

  23. Or if they don’t want that maybe give it better sigma, cause she often has all 6 shells make a nice little circle around the ship you were actually aiming at.

  24. Rasmus Dyhr Frederiksen

    It got buffed. It is really strong now. My winrate is approaching 60% in it.
