Fire time is down to 30 s on Supertest except for Graf Spee.  Wonder if this is because of the backlash behind the Brit BBs.

 

ONLY FOR DDs and CRUISERS

Important note!

This change is only for cruisers and destroyers.

ST, fire extinguishing time

Fires will now be extinguished in 30 seconds instead of 60 on all tiers of destroyers and cruisers, except for Admiral Graf Spee, for which the new number will be 45 seconds. This change is designed to make the low tier gameplay more comfortable for the new players and to reduce the difference between the Repair Party I and Repair Party II consumables.

A VERY important note which should be in the OP.

 

Changes this from a big nerf to cruisers and destroyers to a big buff.

why not Graf Spee?  It's my favorite bote  ;_;

It will get 45 seconds now instead of 60, so your favorite got a buff.

She's my favorite too, but she has a heal and a lot of HP. She can use it to counter fire damage like the BBs can. Most (non British) cruisers and DDs can't. That's why they shortened the duration for them.

They catch fire for 30 seconds.  Shots fired at BBs will still burn for 60 s.  And DDs don't only use fire and HE, remember a thing called torpedo?

Graf won't get because it has Repair Party probably like a BB.

Yeah, and it works well enough that I've gotten Dreadnought a couple times in Graf Spee.

Nerf to the burning OF cruisers and DDs, but BBs still burn just fine.  Graf Spee gets special status of in-between.

Yeah, what gives WG? Why doesn't GS get the same love as the other Cruisers?

Any bets that, while burning time is reduced, fire damage during that time will be doubled?
