I think superships is one of those "it looks good on paper" moves. As more & more players acquire them this problem will grow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did, early on, swimming in credits, said what the heck and got the Yamagiri. I don't remember having seen a supership live in the game before that. As soon as I started my 1st random game people started up in chat and I was embarrassed. I didn't realize the disdain and I had a target on me like crazy. lol. I played exactly 3 games and it's been collecting dust ever since. Now, it's becoming routine. Had eight, including USA CVs in last few games in my Gearing. Can't stand it! Why not just make a T11 or whatever. So, what now? What's the prevailing philosophy now? Do you keep your stupid and powerful supership benched on principle, or do you just say so many other's are playing it why not me? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
200 [USN-W] dabot8 [USN-W] Members 488 posts 13,153 battles Report post #16 Posted November 1, 2022 I love the superships, great for farming dmg on, you get extra credits, especially in a T9 ship, they are always a priority target when I can hit them. That and the BB's have to be the biggest targets out there, the CA dont seem all that great and the DD I have encountered are not much either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I played them quite a bit in 'Grand Battles'. I actually used the Satsuma, Shikishima, and Yamato to re-level Yamamoto to 21 after the Captain Lvl change. Yes, they can be a pain to face when T9 and even 10, but the XP/credit boost you get for doing alot of damage to the things..............Let's face it, they are there to be farmed.
