Then, our Edinburgh sends a broadside of torps into my hull for some reason and turns pink, though I was nowhere near an enemy ship. Made me wonder how the game was going to turn out. However, then, the enemy CV decides that two of the best AA ships on our team are the ones that need to be attacked, even though we were side by side and covering each other with AA fire and our CV decides that if he can't sink anything at least he can run around and spot the enemy, which he does well. We win by a landslide. I had shells in the air for a Kraken but the game ended before they landed. I simply love playing the Massey when it's top tier in a game with CVs. spotting. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What amazed me is that they knew exactly where I was as their CV kept sending planes at me yet they still would drive by me in low-health ships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, when a new DD driver looks up what WG is telling the capt what to do.. spotting isn't even mentioned... As I said in one of my last vids, WG can be their own worst enemy because of what they do not do... Edited November 1, 2020 by Elo_J_Fudpucker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All the enemies high tier BBs were still alive, and the OP still had 4 kills. Seems like he was targeting DDs and CA/CLs To finish them off instead of farming damage.

That's how you get the big XP rewards, wax the smaller ships to farm the majority of their HP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True, but the formula doesnt require wizardry. Its the most comfortable of the no-need-aim BBs because of the superior secondaries and that 4 commander points can be turned to survival tasks.
