52 GabeTheDespot Members 484 posts 6,201 battles Report post #1 Posted January 22, 2018 Hipper has a monstrously slow reload of 13 seconds, and only 8 guns. Since I don’t believe Hipper will receive any RoF buffs anytime soon, should I take adrenaline rush for my captain to remedy this? I want to know what you guys think, since I don’t respec or retrain my captains when I move on, would this be a good decision for Roon and Hindenburg after it? Any positive feedback is much appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is the Pope Catholic? The only reason someone doesn't take AR is because their captain doesn't have the skill points yet to do so. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,299 [VCRUZ] Xlap Members 4,049 posts 9,180 battles Report post #5 Posted January 22, 2018 AR is better than EM for high tier German cruisers. Their turrets are fast enough already. AR can give you a insane DPS buff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1,557 [KSF] BiggieD61 Beta Testers, In AlfaTesters 1,732 posts 21,674 battles Report post #7 Posted January 22, 2018 AR is useful in almost every ship, the longer the re-load the greater the utility. It's even useful in ships with quick loading guns like DD's because it also boosts torpedo re-load rate. It's a safe skill if you play aggressively and like to exchange damage early in the match.

256 [VANN] VannKraken [VANN] Members 965 posts 7,130 battles Report post #8 Posted January 22, 2018 I run AR on most ships I own. I tend to go for maximizing damage output skills over survivability (if I kill the other boat faster, I will survive). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’d recommend if you have the doubloons to respec and take jack of all trades instead of expert marksman; cooldown usage is very important at high tiers.

75 Veasel Members 499 posts 7,185 battles Report post #15 Posted January 23, 2018 I put AR on everything. Personally I think AR and BFT need to be swapped in the skill tree. AR is strong enough it should really be a 3 points skill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

17,905 [WOLF5] HazeGrayUnderway Members 39,217 posts 31,549 battles Report post #19 Posted January 23, 2018 Hipper / Prinz can't really make great use of AR because they won't live long to leverage it. However, AR on the likes of Roon, Hindenburg later in the line, you better believe it's useful a.f. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
52 GabeTheDespot Members 484 posts 6,201 battles Report post #20 Posted January 24, 2018 I think concealment systems is even more useful than AR, 10.9km detection range makes me feel dirty at times, “captain, begin disappearing at will.” It also is a skill that almost everybody takes... On a separate note, AR is useful if on CVs you inflict damage to yourself or are very aggressive in a CV. Both tactics unicums may use to get strikes out faster.
