Made minor changes to the armor geometry of IV Imperator Nikolai I

[Cit_the_bed]

Can this change in the patch notes be explained better please. A lot of people spent money at christmas to get this ship, and changes need more explanation.

Aloha,

As stated by @Femennenlyin your previous reply about this, when you see wording like "Minor changes in the armor geometry of Nikolai I and Hermes." it usually means that there was some sort of rendering or graphical abnormality found and cosmetic changes are needed. If there was any changes to actual armor values or values that might change her employment in battle we would have had numbers listed.

I hope they secretly nerfed it. That ship needs nerfing.

They already did, IMO.  Ship hasn't played the same for over a year. (I bought it on day one in the shop)

That ship got shadow-nerfed with the CV rework and consistent 2-3 CVs per match at low tier.

But WG would never nerf a ship without telling the player base.   ROFL,,, oh,,, I crack myself up.

Eh, don't worry.

It's got a Red Star on it, which means any 'cosmetic' changes probably removed real life flaws that allowed extra citadel hits to occur in-game. Thus making the ship more 'stronk'. (On any other nation 'cosmetic' changes means opening holes in the graphics to allow more citadel hits)

Stealth nerf would fix a lot of stuff that the whinebase would otherwise go banana's about

You're kidding, right?

A stealth nerf would only piss off the people that own it. The "whinebase" wouldn't know about it and would therefore continue to... well... y'know.

Better than suggesting it be done then not doing when the whingers don't like what was needed. Point being is that WG need to make the changes they think need to be made and offer the whiners the option sell it if their precious sealclubber or whatever isn't as clubby. The actual functioning player-base will keep on playing the ship.

Yeah, doubtful. That ship stopped being viable a year ago with the whole new CV crapfest. It doesn't really matter how good the guns are when you have no AA and there's 3 enemy carriers.

They did. The nerf is called "two, sometimes three carriers per side"

[War_Maggot]

The game is a joke now. I just got done a run in KA, did 4,959 damage to planes (yes, FIVE THOUSAND) and shot down NONE. Explain that. Meanwhile, their two T4 CVs did 52,829 damage to me. Screenies to prove it. I took 6 torps, 15 bombs and 5 rockets. If I wasn't an expert at dealing with planes, I'd have been dead, and as it was it was close.

This doesn't border on ridiculous, it crossed that border a year ago. ONE CV PER SIDE. Let me get this straight: no one, and I mean NO ONE, wants 2 CVs per side, and yet they refuse to change it. Unreal, just unreal.

That run just said it all. I'm done with this game. Everyone I know has quit in disgust, and it is no longer fun. Time to move on.

FYI, 

The ask is to state what was changed. Not to just state a blanket platitude.
