Used a free ship for missions? The USS Black was not in that long list of ships used for the Santa crates. I am just wondering as I would like to acquire her one day.....

1,868 [UNHLY] MidnightPhoenix07 Wiki Editor 6,053 posts 16,406 battles Report post #2 Posted December 15, 2020 It will be coming back for coal at some point, just as Flint and Neustrashimy did this patch. We don't know when that will be, but it will be coming back eventually. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And WG will set the coal price for the same reason they did with the Flint and Neustrashimy, i.e. to protect their value in steel (or so they say). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Somebody suggested Black will be cheaper as it was a cheaper steel price than Neustrashimy (or so they said...I don't remember what prices they were) They guestimated about 202k coal for Black comparatively.

238 [PTRGT] DeathsStalker Members 499 posts 70,800 battles Report post #8 Posted December 15, 2020 It will be back for coal but seeing how they reintroduced the Flint you probably won't be able to use a discount coupon on it when it's released. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest 0 posts Report post #9 Posted December 15, 2020 I will spend as much coal as necessary. Looking forward to seeing it back in armory. Already saving. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was me ... Black was selling at 68% the cost of Neus when they were both steel (14,000 vs 20,500) If that ratio would stay in effect for coal, the Black would be 202k (68% of 296k for Neus) ... that's a big "IF" ... I would never bet on what WG might do 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
