478 [BHSN] scruffycavetroll Members 2,564 posts 4,523 battles Report post #1 Posted January 9, 2017 (edited) Man, been a long grind. Sure the premiums made this a little more tolerable and much easier than doing it standard ships, so for those going for it but don't have that well of preemies to pull from I feel for you. But well, I think it's been maybe a month and a half or so since I've decided to try to get one. it's been long and tough but after a lot of PVE, and PVP during the higher xp events well, after this weekend i'm about 20k xp away from getting one and can have one tonight if I really wanted, but will take my time with it in PVE during the week after work. Now the dilemma. do I pull the trigger right away, do I wait for an XP conversion sale? During this grind, I've gotten to about 170k xp on the NC so one good game or a few meh ones and I'll get the Iowa the old fashioned way...but my plan was to use the Missou instead and skip the Iowa to get to the Montana.

So it might be a while. I don't know!!! HAHAHA, the entire time i'm looking at all this XP and like, "hrm, do I really want this, or do I want to go up the German DD tree, or others?"

Though I've got enough doubloons to convert all of my million-ish free XP, I'd prefer to be left with significantly more of them after doing so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had a strong game where I dealt 154K in damage with my MO. Someone chimed in saying I was a terribad player because I used HE. Nevermind that I finished top in XP for the match. You have been warned.
