Wonder if this is because of the backlash behind the Brit BBs. ONLY FOR DDs and CRUISERS Edited October 23, 2017 by Slntreaper forgot info xd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,471 [SWFSH] Fast_Battleship_Iowa [SWFSH] Volunteer Moderator 2,629 posts 7,415 battles Report post #2 Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Important note! This change is only for cruisers and destroyers. Quote 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's my favorite bote ;_; 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, and it works well enough that I've gotten Dreadnought a couple times in Graf Spee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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

Wonder if this is because of the backlash behind the Brit BBs. Any bets that, while burning time is reduced, fire damage during that time will be doubled?
