125 [KNTAI] AdmiralHattori [KNTAI] Members 212 posts 11,651 battles Report post #3 Posted June 9, 2019 (edited) Depending the last time you played her, she got her sigma buffed to 1.9 and fuse time (reduce shatters/fail to penetrate) while ago. Also, the Hood is the most special battlecruiser in the game with the best AP penetration angle like the USN heavy cruisers if you're strictly talking about Hood being classified as a battleship whereas Alaska would also be compared.

This was months ago now but you can find the exact patch notes if you go look through them. Enjoy your better performing ship! :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's "better THAN", not "better then". "Than" is a comparative word!!! And it's "if this happens, THEN that happens". "Then" is a temporal word!!! Does anyone not know this who is more or less literate? Where are you, bumfeck Arkansas? I have taught English for years and this is not any sort of issue, really. Change your sig already it's irritating. Oh, and the Hood is fine once you understand she is a survivor... her guns are gold in the late game against the floating wounded. You just need to survive until then. Edited June 10, 2019 by Stauffenberg44 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

118 [UTWE] Iron_Salvo921 Members 378 posts 7,019 battles Report post #10 Posted June 10, 2019 Yes she got a slight accuracy buff and a penetration buff a while ago. You'll over pen cruisers more but citadel BBs more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think DoY also gets that improved pen angle as well, or better than most if not entirely as good as US cruisers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I don't see seemingly one half or more of forumites use then/than incorrectly, maybe I'll change my sig. Until that time, I'll only change it if and when I choose to do so, not when you complain about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
854 [TIGRB] GSXstage1 Members 875 posts 16,919 battles Report post #13 Posted June 10, 2019 HMS Hood has always been one of my favorite ships. I bought her and even with the sigma being raised, She under performs in everything she does. Sad that such a great ship is so mediocre in game. My Humble opinion by exp. Some of you may have had better luck that me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
