Unlimited main battery reload ? That seems a little overpowered.

OMFG! I laughed so hard.

rather low survivability will form special "ragged" gameplay for the ship during the entire battle.

What!!?

• Number of charger for "Main Battery Reload Booster" consumable changed from 1 to unlimited. 

DD players be like:

Everything else smashes austin

DDs when they face a Austin with its unlimited Reload booster and SAP:

[Bortt]

1 is a small number. Unlimited is a big number.

[Ace_04]

Atlanta uptiered to T10? 

What could possibly go wrong? 

[tfcas119]

Austin: and now WG has returned to their regularly scheduled programming of balancing while drunk. Albeit Austin is still garbage when the MBRB is off cooldown.

[MasterDiggs]

Why does a US cruiser get unlimited reload boosters?! It shouldn't have it at all

Nor should it have SAP ammo based on the pretense of "national flavor", but here we are.

It certainly does give quite the range to work on balance...

Depends on the cool down if it is over powered or not.

[FairWindsFollowingSeas]

Austin captains after popping MBRB:

Give it unlimited Def. AA charges too for the authentic T10 Atlanta experience

 

[SkaerKrow]

In before Austin is rebranded as Austiniskiy and gets released under a Soviet ensign...

Can we get rid of the 8s reload on Austin? They're only 127mms, it would be better to give Austin a 3s reload and keep reload boosts the same?

Austin only has 12 guns vs the 16 of Smolensk.

Not with an 8 second reload.

I think any reload boosts with a non-boosted base reload of 3s would cause problems.

Like quantum physics type problems.

Then get rid of the dubious reload booster altogether. 8 second reload on DD caliber guns on top of a Citadel is preposterous. There are heavy cruisers with. Better reloads.

I agree.  8 seconds with unlimited reloads might be meme worthy.  Anything else would be just be bad.

Reolad booste gives 50% reload. That's 4 second reload on 12 very floaty guns. Thats not meme worthy, thats face palm.
