39 Giantsgiants Members 322 posts 2,310 battles Report post #5 Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) Nice. I just got the 30 cruiser kills part done today. Planning to free XP my way through the Myogi and the Hosho to whatever the IJN Tier 5 carrier is for the planes. As for 1 million damage, I wonder if it's better to stick with my Murmansk or use a BB. Edited January 7, 2016 by Giantsgiants Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Planning to free XP my way through the Myogi and the Hosho to whatever the IJN Tier 5 carrier is for the planes. As for 1 million damage, I wonder if it's better to stick with my Murmansk or use a BB. I would recommend using a battleship. If you do ~50k damage per battle, that's 100k after two battles, and the mission done after 20 battles. Sometimes you might get sunk early or deal a bit less damage, but there are those matches where you just citadel everything and deal 75k+ damage which can make up for it...well in my findings at least. Plus, it's easier to deal more damage as a battleship than as a cruiser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
855 Carrier_Taiyo Beta Testers 2,420 posts 1,809 battles Report post #7 Posted January 7, 2016 What I did was, I used a battleship to kill the cruisers, then a cv to farm the planes. Then, I hunted destroyers on my Cleveland/Atlanta, and let the 1 million damage come on its own while I was DD hunting. I got the Kongo about 2 battles before I sank my 30th destroyer. Now, I am fire farming on the cruisers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now, I am fire farming on the cruisers. I used the Murmansk for the cruiser kills, and am planning to go the CV route for the plane kills too. I'm quite a ways from a tier 6 ship though, so I can't do the 1 million damage and the Myoko missions at the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

3,153 [WOLF5] Khafni [WOLF5] Members 6,550 posts 29,921 battles Report post #10 Posted January 7, 2016 I'm working on getting the ARP Myoko but I have a few questions about these ARP ships. I usually don't keep ships unless they are fun to play. Can these ARP ships be sold? I am hearing the answer is no. I am not an anime fan (nor a hater). I can turn off the skin by not using the port. Am I then stuck with a gray ship or can I apply the standard two camo patterns as with other non-ARP ships? I basically want the free Myoko and use it as a "regular" ship without the anime flash. Possible to do? I enjoy the contests but I don't want to clutter my port with something I am not going to use... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

172 BarnsBroadside Beta Testers 1,115 posts 10,065 battles Report post #12 Posted January 7, 2016 Seen it in my own port. I think it's ugly. Looking forward to the Myoko though, because I've never played that ship and I want to see if the IJN cruiser line is worth going up. It's one of the lines I wrote off due to insufficient credits to buy ships and modules. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Possible to do? I enjoy the contests but I don't want to clutter my port with something I am not going to use... Can't sell them. Can't switch commanders or use them as a trainer. Can't change the colors without a mod. Basically they are for people who love anime (I am also indifferent, don't love it, don't hate it), and if you want to have the ships but don't want to grind or purchase them. In my case, I sold the Kongo to move up the line along time ago, so now I have one again if I want it. I never played the Myoko and would have a lot of grinding to get to it, so I'm looking forward to that one, but not for the anime stuff. I find it annoying that you need to use the anime port to see them available. I prefer the appearances of the Hawaii and Philippines ports, and I'm sure I'll keep forgetting I have these ships available if I'm not seeing them in my port. WG should give us the option to "switch camo," making them appear normal and also appear in other ports. I can't argue with a sub-mission that rewards a cool 1 mil credits though.

I swear I think it is less accurate than the Original Kongo, but it has been a long time since I played a T5 BB, this thing has HORRIBLE dispersion. I'm having to relearn how to play low tier crap. The Myoko on the other hand, God its a nice ship. it puts those German pop guns to shame. funny when a T7 is better than a T8 Hipper.

Can't really stand the Kongo, Maybe its the complete lack of competent players at T5, but between the complete fail dispersion, and the window lickers that infest those tiers, its not really a fun ship to me.

Broke out my New Mexico yesterday and was appalled by its "spread." I thought they were going to fix the thing where shells from the same turret go in completely opposite directions.

They wont, it's the only thing that keeps BBs in check, the complete arcade functionality of this game prevents them from doing so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
