Any of the buffs from the Training is a balancing nightmare. It's a terrible idea.

Such a lazy attempt at "fixing" this issue. This now means that the last tick of continuous AA damage wastes less damage on the tick. WOO. You still haven't addressed the issue of CVs being up-tiered. You still haven't addressed the fact that you are still telling players to adapt, that skill will trump all, but yet you force players to go up against a system that requires no skill at all (AA). You've shown a hobby to ignore the suggestions/feedback from the playerbase. You still are forcing these heavy-handed "fixes" on the live server. Guess we'll wait for 8.6 when you decide to hand out the next batch of CV nerfs because the few that are stubborn enough to still play CV will adapt and skew your numbers to making it look like the class is still over-achieving.

My only real question is how will they address the Torpedo Bomber heal and the Adrenaline Rush?

Got it in my Neptune against a Mogami. He charged and rammed. Also got my favorite Flesh Wound with the Neptune too as one of its secondaries put the Bismark on fire and burned him to death. People were questioning the highlight of Neptune fire killed something.

I got 2 of them through (premium) containers. They're super easy: Earn 5k XP (though it may be base XP).

So how are fighters supposed to work now? I've had several instances in which they fly out of their bubble and hunt down my planes half way across the map....

There could be a few things that could be happening. Maybe you are seeing that when the Midway launches his attack, it actually splits the squadron into 2 (the planes that attacked and the planes still able to attack). Then the planes still good are able to swing around and keep striking. The other Midway was using either the fighter consumable or you were too close to the bubble of the fighters to trigger them to attack you. Even though you fly away, they can chase you out of the circle and still do damage. Damage is not the only way to earn XP. Spotting damage, defending, spots, all contribute to your XP (plus a win helps).

What was the debacle from last week? I got the email and while I know that I vent, it would be nice to know what exactly they are going after.

Kirov and Konigsburg would be good choices for cruisers.

Whichever one you will play the most.
