Ever earned TWO Die Hard achievements in the same match? Got to love the battleships against bots meta... 20200914_230332_PJSB011-Mikasa-1905_33_new_tierra.wowsreplay 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4,112 [TARK] Daniel_Allan_Clark Members 7,331 posts 2,839 battles Report post #3 Posted September 15, 2020 Right now, with the addition of bots into random battles...if you get the right matchmaking, you are HILARIOUSLY over powered. I have a 7 kill game recently, with 6(!) close quarters experts... I am using the mode to farm secondary flags...because it is hilarious to just wade into the bot regatta in the center of the map with all those secondaries blazing away on all sides.

Just make her main gun accuracy a bit better. And increase the range of her secondaries considerably. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She's hardly OP if no one wants to player her in randoms. She's only strong in coop where the bots are too dumb to stay out of secondary range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any player that looks at her stats knows to stay outside of secondary range, where not even the mains will have much of a chance to hit you, even if your profile looks like the side of a barn. It sorely needs a little better dispersion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The conventional wisdom is wrong...and plenty of human players get close enough. 2 hours ago, alexf24 said: Fun? yes. Op? not by a mile. Bots will come close enough, and potatoes.

It sorely needs a little better dispersion. 12 inch HE is pretty good at taking down cruisers, even at range. She suffers against tier 3...but not tier 2.

I prefer CC's who review ships, suggest builds, and provide general tactical advice for each class. iChase Gaming is a perfect example of how to do it right. Watching replays doesn't interest me much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Watching replays doesn't interest me much. Ive gotten to the point where most of that stuff is too basic for me. It was good when I started out though. I dont need someone telling me what the meta build is...i know enough now to determine what is useful for myself. Standing on the shoulders of the CCs though, because without them I wouldnt have found as much fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
