13:15 Gameplay Review
So played against a St.Vincent in ranked yesterday. In my Marseille, I vibe checked it to the bottom of the map while only eating 25k damage. Idk a skilled player could play it better, but ehhhhhhhhhh
kinda hilarious: British 622mm Torpedoes deal more damage than Japanese 633mm torpedoes… and the 700mm Torpedoes they gave the Anhalt.
The IJN uses 610mm tho
22:38 the single AP salvo you fire, absolutely wrecks… SLM, you often get things right but this review is an absolute car crash. You played an aggressive ambush flanker like a back-line sniper, ignoring your speed, manoeuvrability and damage-soaking ability until the last five minutes of that match. Firing HE at Tier 7s you can overmatch and using *range mod?* I hope you can take a fresh approach once you get hold of Vincent.
damage soaking ability? mediocre HP pool, poorly armor, a barn of a citadel, standard DCP, mediocre AA with no DFAA option. All of those combines with piss poor gun performance at medium to long range, 31s reload, a single troll 30k torp. Sorry but this is just a weird combination which doesn’t work at neither range. The P.Rupprect has everything beautifully in sync with each other with a clearly defined optimal playstyle. Brest has the unreasonably long reload dragging its performance but she is also has a good set of things that works together. Duncan is just a mess.
It’s called a salt water wash down when you straddle your target without a hit
In reality, to get G3 with the Refits it has in game would require deleting the submerged torpedo tubes
Managed to get the Duncan on my second chance,,was more than happy at that.
I am so happy this is finally in the game. When I first found out about this design, the granddaddy of the Nelson, I needed it!
I actually like the Lion: decent fire chance, great heal, solid concealment. This ship however I’m not so sure about especially with that dispersion. I also don’t play anything above t8 due to the matchmaking and superships etc at the higher tiers.
I super whaled this and even though that was a bad idea I love this ship. It has everything I want in a ship without being over powered. The only real down sides I see is the weak armour and guns can troll sometimes.
I would love to face this in Schlieffen. It will melt in seconds.
Needs more torps – 1 on each side is not enough for a BB. It would be ok on something like Forrest Sherman which has stealth, relatibely speaking.
Got her in the first 8 bundles (idk which one, i just bought 8 at once) and i really like her, just the torps were kinda strange the first time i used them
Funny thing is the UK cancelled these paper ships and convinced the US and Japan to cancel about 20 capital shops between them, several of which were almost complete, and then also convinced them to let the UK build the NelRods.
There’s trolling, and then there’s thr UK.
With all these ships having torps now, I think WG should put torps on the HOOD. The Hood did have them originally. Its time to upgrade this ship to what she was.
the LION is one of the most underrated ships in the game she plays like a battle cruizer.
Oh great, WG has taken one of the most heavily armoured battleship designs ever actually considered for construction and somehow made it under protected… In what world is a fast battleship with a 14″ inclined belt and 8″ of deck armour “squishy?”
WOW must really want me to start playing the game again. I have not played in a few months besides getting the daily drops. This weekend It gave me the Collingwood and Duncan on the first two random bundles. I guess it worked.
