Merry CHristmass fellas
i personally think the NEUSTRASHIMY is a really excellent destroyer
Especially for newer players (not that they have access to it tho) because of the high survivability
Its a good destroyer! Does everything well, not great, but well. The concealment is epic tho.
She really is excellent!!!
Fun fact about the Neustrashimy: she was actually build
Neustrashimy was built but the class cancelled so the ship was sold to the Chinese
That explains everything.
Interesting that you built her out as a gunboat. I always interpreted her stats as a general purpose DD with a level of utility that would make a cruiser blush, leaning on the torpedo boat side. 10km isn’t spectacular torp range (ok, it’s spectacular for *Russian* torp range) but it’s similar to other T9 generalists like the Fletcher and Jutland. That lower speed puts her in line with them too (unlike the Russian and French high speed gunboats). Her guns are 360 turrets, like the Oland, which is nice in a gun duel too. Her special thing seems to be that she’s an ungodly tough little swiss army knife of a DD.
If she had a sensor (hydro or radar) as an option instead of the speed boost, she’d be a monstrous little thing. As is, she a mutant Grozovoi that plays a bit like a Fletcher rival with a superheal.
While the base torps are pretty good the reload is way too long to build it as a torpboat. Even with a full build it’s like 96s. which just limits your damage output overall. The full build gun HE dpm is 136k with a decent firechance – against DD’s you can easily take fights and win due to that superheal. The improved heal really makes this ship – you have the potential HP of a Zao.
Guns are usually a little more consistent, although it is a little lacking. 4 guns with a 4 sec reload, so idk
The grozovoi was the prototype of the Neustrashimy
@Josh Swanson 3.17 with the full build. You have the HP to sustain DPM for a long time too.
more like Ognevoi on Steroid
Yo Mountbatten, you can get her for Coal now! in the featured section haha
@1 Mol yeah ik, I want Black, this thing is not really good in my opinion…
@1 Mol Not really, she is more stealthy with 5.6km max, same like shima and the torps also hit harder than Grozovoi.
Black has really slow torps, main reason I would never waste coal on it when better ships to get for coal.
@Cute Doggos You don’t get black for torps, you get Black for the radar because she plays like Smaland
Neustra’s gimmick is surviving until the end. The longer a DD survives, the more impact it has on the game.
Neustrashimy(Fearless) The Zombie Soviet DD, amazing heal
“The Ship Nobody Bought” got my attention!
No last stand? Brave choice…..
Merry Christmas everyone. Peace and happiness be yours in the new year.
The grozovoi is the prototype of the Neustrashimy, it is not a destroyer leader so not a gunboat for sure, it is a torp hybrid that can outlast all destroyers that she will face, and can rival or trade with destroyer leaders but she it isn’t made for it.
Grozovoi guns, low detection fast reloading torps and zombie heal.
I think I’ll get one of these, if I have enough coal. Looks like a halfway decent ship.
Very true…built mine that way…really fast torp reload 🙂
” I had one good team today, I’m not allowed anymore.”
Damn I felt that… I lost every game the past 2 days after I got a kraken in one lol.
That was me until i got Siegfried, If you run into SageEilram prepare to lose Lol
“Not like shimakaze sneaky” actually has shimakaze’s conceal like a boss
You should do a trop build, not really the best gun boat.
Lol, I was that Atlanta. I got annihilated
Every time I see a famous You tuber in game with me I pray I don’t suck that round and see myself on You tube later. Been lucky so far. I know I suck at 46% win average. But I still have fun playing.
Welcome to the world of playing a DD, do the damage someone else takes the kill lol.
Merry Christmas
