It is like a Kongo and a Gneisenau had a baby. And having a good amount of experience in those ships, this one feels like a piece of cake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

293 QJW Alpha Tester 1,150 posts 5,747 battles Report post #4 Posted March 5, 2017 No, I disagree, she is that bad. I have played her once or twice again a few months ago. It's like a super "Nah bruh, I'm good" kind of feel. Maybe you like it, but I cannot wrap my head around that ship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
427 Hatework Members 1,369 posts 3,667 battles Report post #5 Posted March 5, 2017 I liked her as well. The battlecruiser play style lends itself well to later ship's as well. Also, having most of her guns aft and good speed allows kiting of inferior battleships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only 2 out of 14,000 Myogi players on http://na.wows-numbers.com/ have an average damage over 60k, under 50 average 50k. Every other T4 BB has many more players over 50k & much higher top scores, even Ishizuchi (104 over 50k, has 2 players over 70k). The highest number of battles played in it is under 400, very few play it more than needed to get to Kongo. Edited March 5, 2017 by hoom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

3,581 Admiral_Thrawn_1 Members 12,707 posts 14,320 battles Report post #9 Posted March 5, 2017 Yes once I learned that Battleships should use AP instead of HE Shells like players think are the best thanks to tier 1 my success in Myogi has skyrocketed. When you use AP you get the chance to do Citadel hits which are so devastating and turns Myogi into a far more formidable warship. And now I have Kongo researched and been using no it, but Myogi is still in use thanks to my needing Aircraft Carrier as well, but grind is really not that bad. The main key with Battleships is to strictly load AP ammo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

729 X15 Alpha Tester 2,162 posts 6,770 battles Report post #11 Posted March 5, 2017 (edited) You have a max 80k, average 37k. The average is low because of the learning curve ('twas long)but 120k should be my max. Did it in a tier 5 match while divisioned with an ark beta in December of 2015. Given that WG says I never broke 100 I might rebuy the thing to prove it's capable. Edited March 5, 2017 by X15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YOU have previous experience in another ship to make this work, a large majority of new players don't. If you told me Myogi was you first ship and pulled those results, you might have something. There are guys way smarter than me able to prove with stas and exp. the Myogi just sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

679 [CVLOV] Francois424 Beta Testers 3,640 posts 2,638 battles Report post #17 Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) Just give it cruiser-like accuracy/sigma/dispersion and don't touch anything else. Test it. My guess? Going to be balanced because low volume of shells, and no torpedoes/secondary range/turtleback like the Gneisenau.

17,967 [WOLF5] HazeGrayUnderway Members 39,333 posts 31,553 battles Report post #18 Posted March 7, 2017 I had an alright time with Myogi but what helped me out was IJN BBs were the 2nd BB line I worked on, as I was at around Tier VII or VIII USN BBs also. After having undergone the suffering of 21kt USN BBs, Myogi was a breath of fresh air and I liked rolling up to ships and blasting them. The only thing I did not like with Myogi was if a DD got in danger close range, the turret placement of Myogi did some very stupid shot patterns. I remember being horrified having a good lead on a short ranged DD trying to do a torp run, fire my guns, and watch all my shells criss-cross in front of the DD and completely missing. All BBs are subject to RNG but Myogi's close range shot pattern was a death trap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,593 Hunter_Steel ∞ Beta Testers, In AlfaTesters 4,630 posts 5,107 battles Report post #19 Posted March 7, 2017 What I hated about her was the accuracy of her guns. Granted they are the largest of their tier, but when a perfectly aimed salvo misses more often than not, there's something horrible wrong with the ship, not the player. I don't even have a problem with a her gun arrangement. Although having 4 guns forward would be a massive boost over the four guns sitting in the rear. But then, Myogi might perform better now that she's no longer facing Tier 6 BBs. ~Hunter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
