Okhotnik is what happens when you leave a TOG II* soaking in the bathtub overnight.  Remember to put your toys away, people.

Hope so didn't have the cash to buy it when it came out. I would rather it came up in the tech tree though.

You have to get suicide close to use those 4.5km torps...

It has good guns, who needs torps? unless some one charges your smoke.

Yep, but that's ok since It's primarily a gunboat. Use the torps for surprise ambushes and suicide charges - you can murder anything in its tier spread from full health with those torps, and you lay enough of them to deny an area.

Rushing BBs with those torps actually works. 

Because gameplay at low tiers is just as ridiculous as the ship itself. 

 

Okhotnik in a nutshell: The Alpha King

-> 1-shotting BBs with shimakaze salvos @4km

-> 2-shotting cruisers with AP citadel salvos @5km

-> 3-shotting DDs with brutal HE salvos @6km

And alpha = fun.

 Nobody came close enough to me so I never used the torps. The guns though, the guns...

Just try to rush them straight on. 

These low tier BBs can't really hit you on the nose.

 I was too busy wrecking DDs and citadeling Duguay-Trouin with HE :Smile_amazed:

You should have seen it when the boat first came out.  People went nuts in match when they saw a full Okhotnik torpedo spread coming at them.  Okhotnik is very dangerous in the DD fight if she can anticipate the fight, drop torps ahead of time.  This forces the other DD to panic as they try not to get hit.  All through this, you're ripping them with the many guns on the ship.  That said, do be careful in a DD vs DD fight.  Okhotnik is very long and turns like s--t.  Play it wrong and you can eat torpedoes very easily.

That’s because of the many guns sitting aft ... thought I was in a Cruiser when I obliterated the first DD I saw

the torp range is 4.5 or somthing.. and there’s a lot of em

fun boat .. I may buy it because of the fun factor and it’s slight lean to acting like Cruiser Guns which I normally play

oh yea put my 19 point Kutuzof Captain in it ... just for fun

If you play 5-6 games in the ship, you will get a personal offer in-game to buy it, I've been told by WG people.
