Recorded some content, did some Italian BB-ing in Randoms (Cavour is fun, Doria better still) had great fun derping around in the Hizen in co-op with my newly promoted 21-point Yamamoto in command. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5,285 [BEA5T] Asym_KS Members 7,527 posts 39,321 battles Report post #2 Posted March 1, 2021 Let's see......10/10 on Naval Battles. Finally, something a PVE main could run wild with (ribbons).... Someone suggested that I change my game name to Dingbat...... Ran out of Combat Missions and received some odd camo. Other than that, did very little other than play some COOP. There's not much more to do? No campaigns. No special missions...... No reason to grind anything else. Alas, some free Italian ships I have no interest in at all..... GoD forbid the thought of going back to Ranked: that gives me the chills......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
7,828 [WOLFG] DrHolmes52 Members 18,207 posts 23,178 battles Report post #3 Posted March 1, 2021 Got some naval battle points a change. Ran out the camos and containers (more camos). JB for 7 fires from secondaries made it possible. Built up some more ECXP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

438 ditka_Fatdog Members 1,404 posts 16,552 battles Report post #6 Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Qualified for silver, smaland was a beast but had some good teams in a row to help finish. decided to drunk drive my Minsk and Kiev in randoms. Had a good time and the results were decent. Unlocked the doria and played a few co-op games. She’s a definite upgrade over the t5 and a good bb overall I think Edited March 1, 2021 by ditka_Fatdog Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5,207 Sovereigndawg Members 12,079 posts 21,321 battles Report post #7 Posted March 1, 2021 Wanted to play some Raptor Rescue, however I think that the CV runs on WGs auto pilot program and there fore gets stuck a lot and it's an auto defeat. I did take all of my special signals off of my ships for the 2 battles I tried. Played some Co op trying to gain some potential damage which along with base XP missions are the stupidest missions. Why do I buy premium time? if it's not to escape the base mission grinds in the first place and what is the thinking on potential damage missions, Your mission is to get out there and get shot at as much as possible but last as long as you can in the battle. C'mon WG oxymoron much. You don't have to think too hard about why Random battles are so crappy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is what completely disinterested me in ever doing Raptor again quite some time ago. We had a perfect run, got into the circle well ahead of Raptor, and then it p***ed off elsewhere and there wasn't enough time to go back and force it into the circle. WG needs to change it so that it's similar to Killer Whale, with either a majority of the surviving ships or one ship followed by Raptor enough to win. @Hapa_Fodder, please pass this up the line for consideration.

252 [RCNW6] WaywardVariable Members 425 posts Report post #10 Posted March 1, 2021 Let's see this weekend... Finished leveling up Gunther Lutjens to 21 points, took about 12 days of CoOP/Ops during the week and randoms on weekends to go from 10 to 21 points, not bad. finished the "Resolute and Rapid" collection and got Unique Commander Luigi Sansonetti, so maybe I'll start working on the Italian Cruiser tech tree and level him up to 21. Did a bunch of randoms with my Z-46, Mainz and Seattle all in all I about broke even on win-loss and had a BLAST doing it, some very fun (and close) matches.

725 [WOLF9] kyesac Members 2,351 posts 38,325 battles Report post #11 Posted March 1, 2021 Did some Naval Battles this weekend. We pulled out a victory late Sunday Night. GO TEAM!! Finished up ONE DD grind with the Grozovoi entering my fleet. Seven more to go. Researched B hulls on Lightning and LeFantastique. Real close on Oland. Continued grinding LePanto. At 55k XP. Not a bad ship at all. Not much else. Going to the dentist today for major dental work. Replacing the originals with fake teeth today. Liquid diet coming up.

I could drink this stuff all day. I sometimes even keep a bottle of it close by when I'm grinding and I'm on-call so I can't drink beer. Remember that it's about the journey (learning the line's peculiarities) as much as getting to Tier 10. Don't burn yourself out! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2,070 [CO-OP] HamptonRoads Members 5,637 posts 47,343 battles Report post #13 Posted March 1, 2021 Finished grinding 250K XP on the Lepanto. I'll still play her once or twice a day to cover any extra XP costs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
90 chrisope Members 470 posts 23,311 battles Report post #14 Posted March 1, 2021 Finished the tasks for the free Warhammer crates; both had camo, which was ok. Tried to get as many tokens as possible to get the Andrea Doria (I think I'm about 2k shy; maybe next weekend). Otherwise worked on a few lines when I had time to play.

Probably a wise move. Depending on which captain you have in her and what his intended fate is, you might want to keep an eye on how much CXP you are putting on him, lest relocating him to the T10 be unexpectedly expensive!

I guess I should have done my research!!! she is trolling me especially the guns and the lousy firing arcs. I liked the Normandie more than the Bretagne. But I sold the Bretagne, so the Normandie doesn't have to be that good. And yes, you give up a lot for 12 guns on the cruise liner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's okay. I spend most of my time on the forums trying to avoid saying things that would get me kicked off 4chan. I wish the moderators were a little less over-eager; most of the words they block here were familiar to me before I'd reached an age where I'm supposed to even be in WOWS. 5 minutes ago, SKurj said: she is trolling me especially the guns and the lousy firing arcs. I got the Normandie as an early unlock back in early 2018 and she was my first Tier 6 BB. Perhaps it's that I had nothing else to compare her to, but I loved her. The gun arcs are troll AF, true, but she is very fast for her tier and that helps. I actually got as far as the Lyon before I realized that although the B modules were supplied for the early unlock, they were not automatically selected. I'd done the whole grind stock and thought nothing of it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
