"Let it burn"

BB. Nagato. Full health. Against DD. Steered towards her, keep maneuvering. Got hit 2 shells, lit up.

 

"Remember, let it burn! Don't use repair! Let it burn out by itself! Then use health restore!" - Smartasses in this forum.

 

Sunk the DD, dodged all torps. Took a glance at the health.

 

Almost half gone. I didn't use the repair for fear of a torp hit.

 

I said Japanese BB got nerfed beyond playable, people laughed at me.

 

Oh well.

 

And did I mention I scored 2 direct AP hits on the DD, but somehow just 2000 some damage? Of course I didn't.

This is...unique to Japanese BB's...how?  You...have no idea how to play this game,  do you?  I mean I'm bad,  don't get me wrong,  but even I know what overpenetration is...

You can heal most of it back, that's what the [edited]on the Forums were telling you, smartass.

Here's a tip for those too stupid to realize it: that bit of grey on your healthbar is what can be healed back during one repair party. A USN battleship will suffer as much damage as an IJN battleship ignorant wretch as will a german, as will the damn warspite.

Have you heard?

BB>CA>DD>BB.

Oh, wait.

You don't get it.

 

I barely got sunk by torps.

 

I always got destroyed by HEs. The burn is just ridiculous. Oh and IJN BBs are weak in almost every aspect.

Play some USN BBs before coming back.

Oh yea, and then you have BB HEs. What, you saw a DD and you immediately switch to HE and wait another 32 secs? Great, out of no where came a CA, batter you like a boss. You can't put him down quick because you are using HE so no citadel hits.

 

You can lit him up, right? Wrong. They can dish out waves after waves of shells and at best you can hit 3 or 4 per salvo, ain't no way you can light him up faster than he does to you.

So what is the moral? Don't fight ships loaded with HEs?

 

You don't know the solution either. You are one of those people cowarding behidn DDs, CAs and other BBs when playing IJN, and look for ships with low HP.

Same tier. IJN front vs German broad side. Both full health. Guess which ship sunk after only 5 rounds of exchanging fire. Not the German one.

Very funny, if by "most" you mean 50% of the 50% lost. which makes it the 25% of the total HP, 25% isn't most of anything.

Arizona? She bad? You are kidding right? Or Iowa? Bad how?

Arizona is a premium. Iowa is generally considered bad. Have you played them?

You obviously had more than one fire burning to reduce your health that much that quickly.  Or you are just exaggerating and want to blame this forum for poor play on your part.

I'm sorry the other classes are able to damage you.

 

How should WG fix the game to cater to your whims?

 

Should Battleships only take damage from other Battleships?

 

WG balances the game around nonsense like you are spewing, which is the reason 2/4s of the classes are trash, congrats OP WG is listening. They want to make sure you are nice in comfy in that Battleship of yours.

 

Keep snowing Snowflake.

He hasn't played anything without a meatball on the flag, and only to Tier 6.

What I'm wondering is how you got all the way to Nagato and are just noticing this stuff now.

 

I mean, the whole how-to-counter-a-DD-in-a-BB took me a while to figure out when I was playing up through Kawachi, Myogi and Kongo, but by the time I had ground up through Kongo and got to Fuso, I was giving as good or better than as I was getting most of the time.  Not that I'm a Unicum BB player, but I certainly don't feel helpless against DD(s) when playing IJN BBs, or any other BB line for that matter.

 

I'd suggest watching some of the tutorial vids on how to play BBs by Community Contributors like iChase, Notser, and Flamu on Youtube.  You can learn a lot by watching how the Unicums handle a ship.  Flamu is a particular fan of the Fuso -- here's his Fuso guide to get you started.  It's from before the 6.2 Captain Skill changes so you'll have to extrapolate the build advice a bit, but the gameplay advice is still solid.

With the exception that Warspite can heal citadel damage, I believe.

That's because you're not any good at battleships, and you'd rather rant continuously on the forums than actually bother to learn.

 

Why are you people even trying to engage with this person?  He's just another in a long line of forum-warriors that can't play the game but already think they know enough to dismiss all feedback and constructive criticism.  He'll be gone by summer, someone else will come, and the cycle will repeat itself.

I learned to RESPECT but not fear DDs in South Carolina and Wyoming... Been beating them up a decent amout of the time ever since.

 

Once PopeShizzle made it click in my head about how to deal with fires on battleships, I've been 'letting it burn,' srviving, and getting fireproof and dreadnaught awards ever since.

 

There is a bit of an art to using the things that help you deal with damage, but it is a LEARNED skill, and not that hard to do once you figure it out.

In a poor attempt to discourage others from potatism I consider it a public service, futile? Probably... but the infection must be fought at all times to combat the plague.

 

 

I figured it was a reroll/alt trolling, though I haven't looked at his stats...

Fair enough, continue your valiant crusade against ignorance.  RNGesus wills it!
