WG: “Hahahah. Oh wait you’re serious? Let me laugh even harder”
A skill for battleships like adrenalin rush that is activated by fire and increases in effectiveness the more fires alight on your ship?
Fired up!
Repair duration is increased by 15 seconds for every fire burning, as well as a stacking buff for each fire.
What if friendly ships can help put out fires?
This sounds like a better alternative than anything he suggested
Bad skill
Congrats for your sister :). Can you put Ultimate Admiral Dreadnought as a vote? I’d love to see more 🙂
alternatively you could reduce fire chance when shells don’t penetrate armor, it would limit amount of potential fires small caliber HE could reliably set on larger ships.
it would also provide further interaction with IFHE depending on how percentages would be set.
@Bjorn the overly, excessively enslaved singaporean
Yes, either 0% or let’s say only 10-25% of original fire chance, that would make DD with 21mm of pen be able to only set 2 fires on battleship/non super light cruiser (Smolensk, UK Light cruisers for example) or just 1 fire on Battleship with fire prevention.
While other ship’s would have penalty due to hitting armored parts of the ship, or would need to take IFHE with still takes away 50% of the fire chance.
Still there would be few offender’s like German 128/150mm and IJN 100mm.
@arczer25 1 I say we should implement both
However counterintuitive, I think it shoulde be the opposite: the fire chance should be nerfed when shells DO penetrate the armor.
That way, ships that rely on fires would still be viable, but ships that do huge HE damage would cause fewer fires.
Basically, a built-in IFHE.
The problem isn’t being fire-spammed by a Friesland, as fire damage is pretty much all she can do.
The problem is getting chunked for 12k AND TWO FIRES by a Thunderer.
@landochabod7 Well for most part Thunderer is exception not the rule, that I would say are offender’s to this system.
Introducing fire chance reduction on penetration would nerf pretty high number of ship’s many of with aren’t in best state
This is focused on HE spam from ship’s with high amount of rounds per minute.
Well, HE in World of Warships is long due for a rework. The problem is, that at Wargaming rework is a synonim of DISASTER.
@Almighty Deity so like war thunder(i think? If im wrong pls correct me)
@Arctic Tiger Warthunder added in “pressure effect” to HE, right? Pretty similar to that, just more arcade-y for WoT since it’s based on HP rather than crew being knocked out.
My secondaries are still crying in a corner…164% more dispersion, that is literally insane.
That’s just not true, their reworks have been great, great for the purpose they created them for. You and almost every other person approaches the game updates like it’ll better the game, that’s the wrong approach.
You should look at it from their point of view, their only goal is making money and it just so happens that the way they do that is with this game. They don’t give a flying fuck about their game or the longevity of it, they want profit asap. You think the commander rework was a disaster? It was perfect for them, only a few weeks of captain point reset instead of a permanent 1 time change per captain. Easy, everybody coming back that’s a whale will spend a ton of money just on resetting their captains alone.
Literally the entire game is revolved around making money by making whales spend money. Why do you think there’s no skilled matchmaking or different tiers in same match or modules or captain point skills, it’s all to pay to skip and pay to improve.
The heavier the armor the less dmg a HE shell should do
U cant hit a bb with 406mm HE shell and deal the same dmg at puny 19mm dd armor xD
Congratulations to your sister. Unless WG can make money off it, it’s not going to happen (Me being synical)
Me in my Minotaur: hmmm yes… my secondaries are too strong I guess
@Buffer Buffer a mino+worcester combo is deadly… Me, my clanmate in cv, and a mino made a comeback of a 7v3
but she doesn’t have any, or Seattle or Worchester
Am a Neptune main and I have almost 10km secondary range. And I can confirm Fire change is cancer.
@Buffer Buffer Worcester has less reload and is missing smoke consumable.
@Droid Motorola 388 it also has two more guns and HE
I can imagine over a dozen different ways for WG to f*** up a rework
Like they’re planning on doing for WoT? They’re looking to change it from penning the thinnest surface in it’s blast radius to forcing it to be a light tank clubbing round only. Since the pen is negligible it more often than not does nothing even to them on the test servers.
SLM: BBs not pushing because when they push they immediately got HE spammed
Me, charging my Bismarck recklessly: *wait, are you not supposed to do that?*
This is how you should play the Tirpitz.
I do this frequently with JB. With lowered burn chance and you keep to 1 lane it’s hilarious to get in their faces with HE when theirs does fuck all.
Hell i push in in my north Carolina
I push in german,Russian and ijn bb’s. I don’t dare in us bb,it never ends well. Ive been charging in with the odin lately,I underestimated the guns. Secondaries and torps do the work…lol. last few battles been around 200k damage. Enemy seems to ignore Odin when it pushes in.
@Mark Rogers that’s the thing with the NC! The only people that see it nose in and get hungry are HE spamming cruisers. I’ve watched other bbs fire at targets behind me i assume because they figured I just wasn’t that big a threat. But that American piercing….ends dreams
Yes, I would imagine that HE rework would go about as well as the CV rework, the CV rework of CV rework and the CV rework of the CV rework of the CV rework.
CV rework, Skill rework, probably a Sub rework in the future if the last dev blog was anything to go by. Reworks of Reworks of more Reworks because Reworks are reworking the reworks.
WG “Spreadsheets say everyone loves fire, more HE in game”
hahahahaha
Spreadsheet also says everyone LOVES reload nerf to battleships that literally do not need reload nerfs (like California, Oklahoma, and now Yukon too…)
Thunderer: mmmm I am OK with HE spamming.
And Conqueror too
In those rare moments when a Colbert has targeted me, and it does not happen often, but when it does I just feel a part of me dies
*me grinding for the Worcester*
*Sad HE spam noises*
Nothing is more infuriating then pushing up in a BB and then just getting smashed by HE spam from 2 or more ships
Wow….that sounds like a powerful skill. Kinda reminds me of that dd that drove though a battleships wake to put a fire out after a Japanese torpedo exploded on its bow.
I wonder what the game would be like if “Fire Brigade” ships were introduced…. fast cruisers that sail around dousing fires on their teammates. Could be interesting.
Changing HE is something I’ve wanted for so long.
