Fire-Power

[Zim_Xero]

With the coming 6.00 update, the guns of the Marblehead are going to fire about 10% faster.  This motivated me to formulate the 'Fire'  power of my existing T5-T9 ships.  They are based on unmodified % chances of fire, number of main guns, and their rate of fire.  It also assumes 100% accuracy.

 

 

FPM = Fires set Per Minute (average)

 

Tier	Class	Name	FPM
5	C	Marblehead	12.3
7	C	Atlanta	10.7
6	C	Budyonny	8.1

That's pretty interesting. I didn't know that Marblehead was so good at setting fires. I mean, it even beats the Atlanta.

But that limited range and crappy hull though

Myoko sets 7.29 fires/min if I'm doing this right (T7 CA - 5x2 guns, 14s reload, 17% fire chance).  I notice I do tend to set two fires at a time with it fairly frequently.

Just wondering, are you taking into account the fire chance reductions that each tier gets? 

 

Also, Mogami with the 155s sets 9 fires per minute. Kutuzov and Chapayev set 10.8, because they have a slightly higher fire chance of 12% (compared to Mogami's 10).

#Main Guns  x  Fire%  /  reload seconds  x  60 minutes  /  100   =  average Fires Per Minute

 

 

@ TheRenegade) 7.29 looks correct

@ Aduial) I did not do any tier modifications.   How do they work exactly?

The higher the tier, the lower your chance of being set on fire.

The calculations look like they take all guns into account.  Broadside, bow-on, stern-facing...the Marblehead always has main guns that are unable to fire.  Atlanta too actually...

You do realize of course that Marblehead can't possibly train all guns on the broadside. I think it can do a maximum of 6 on a broadside, same as Murm and Omaha. Some of the guns are in barbettes... very old school design.

From the link above.... it looks like every tier above tier 3, gives a +7% chance, cumulative, to avoid the effect of being set on fire each time.  (almost 50% chance to avoid at tier 10), good to know.

 

@Misniso:   Good Point.  stats are always limited in usefulness.  Position, range, skill, trajectory, and modifiers all play a bigger role in the end, than the base stats.
