How to steal kills 101

[QuantumEntropy]

You get a Fuso and you fire at everything that your team is not firing at

If you try hard it's possible

 

Team game , kills are secured

It is possible. Does it matter? It shouldn't. I just get a kick out of the guy who's guns only seem to come alive when a target has 1500 HP left, THAT guy is going for the steal.

It's not possible because there is no such thing.  A ship is alive or it's dead.  If it's alive it is a threat.  It matters not who gets the killshot, it matters that it stops shooting back.

To further this, it doesn't matter who gets the kill shot because xp/credit awards are damage based.  If all you do is "kill steal", there will be a few 0-kill players making 5x what you made per battle, AND your team will suffer for lack of killing ships fast enough.  It is no joke to say that if you don't kill ships as fast as you can, there will be occasions where someone kills ships on your team instead when they should already be at the bottom.  This can and will even lead to you losing, all because you think you get something for the kill.

 

You get poor play and outcomes.  Congratulations.

Watch high tier BBs they don't shoot all game till a target is under 5k

I was 1 v 1 a Iowa with my Roon from like 15km and had an Amagi in my [edited]that didn't shoot 1 shell till the Iowa was not 7k hp

I know , i was just making a joke

 

I remember a game where i let a cleveland with 1500hp-ish at the begining of a game and nobody was shooting him ,  later on he won the game for his team Since then i shoot everyhing that moves and my team is not shooting

All i did was just a joke , i know the basic stuff of the game , no need to write that much , you should see the video , i am going for target that the team is not

I always duble tap till a ship is dead but not every was shares this concept of the game

[SireneRacker]

There is no such thing as a kill steal. Because stealing means he takes something you already own. But the enemy is still alive so there is no kill that can be stolen

Inflection is really hard on the intertron.  I tend to salt all of my posts with heavy sarcasm just to make sure. 

 

Thank you for providing a concrete example to my comment above.  I'll "steal" every kill i can get if it means a ship stops shooting.  Suffice it to say that unless you're relying on concealment, if there are ships in range and your guns are loaded and you're not firing them, you're doing it wrong.  Even bad shots can get lucky RNG.

Seems like the title that i did is wrong Don't read the title anymore

Woah there big fella, calm down. You're on the forums now, it's mostly people that understand and you're preaching to the choir for the most part. I don't care if I finish with 0 kills and 65k damage like I do in my DDs with some frequency, I did my job and that's what matters. The same idiots that think kills matter are the same ones that will end up costing you the game and I think that's what people are up against with these clowns. The ones that hold their fire so they can straightline and try to snipe that last salvo at the right time only to roll up and wait for the next one, or the guys that abandon the cap right before a win to chase a kill to the far corners on the map for the loss. A kill obviously means more than a win when you behave as such, and a person like that will undoubtedly do what it takes to get that "important" kill no matter what it means for his team.

2 Games in a row a CV wasted his full TB on a 1000-2000hp target that i was shooting since he was full hp Now that people are [edited]

[AVR_Project]

Unless you are in competition for the ARP Karlsrue, stage 2, where you must torpedo 25 aircraft.

Excellent shooting.  Always like to see an artist.

This isn't starbucks?  No wonder my damn coffee is taking so long.

I had a ship detonate me with something like 60 HP detonate me a couple days ago, please kill all ships if given the opportunity.

No, you're among friends now. We're going to love you through this!

[Skarp_AGW]

By now, the OP is realizing that sublety is lost on this crowd.

 

His post is more an homage to the the Fuso's ability to rain death and destruction all by itself. It really has nothing to do with "stealing kills".

Look at my team's CV While the almost full HP cv was 4-5 km from the low hp one

Almost full hp mean half hp btw
