So... how are folks finding the new turret HP buffs now that they have made it to live?  Are they as good as promised?

I think I am going to run a lot of Gearing and Atlanta games and report back what I notice

 

If you don't lose a single turret in the first salvo, then patch worked

first battle in Fletcher lost just one - feels much better than usual 2-3 (actually think it does better now so yes - yay)

few battles in Baltimor/New Orleans - losing turrets with same rate - (NO lost turret from Yamato - no surprise here, Br lost turret from Colorado - slightly displeased)

Not always true, sometimes my Atlanta won't lose a turret, others I'll have like 3 left.

Had 2 games the other day where I lost all my guns in a single salvo while playing DD's. First was Fletcher then the Polish DD. Nothing like losing all your weapons at the start of a match from a lucky bomb drop by a CV.

from the way i was reading the patch notes the 203's on cruisers where not effected whatsoever, just the guns bellow 160 so i don't know what you were expecting here....

That moment when you lose all your guns except the turret with the 1 cannon on the Blys. Much hurt

I just finished a game using a Benson with Survivability on the captain.. 18600 hit points. the FIRST salvo that hit me, I lost 3 items. Hit repair.. next salvo, more destroyed. This was from a IJN destroyer firing at me.

 

Im used to seeing 2 or 3 things being lost, but I was under the impression this would stop a bit with this *supposed* buff.

 

 

EDIT : Just had a 1 hit magazine detonation.. Is this just bad luck?

Played a few games in my ATL yesterday. Got hit like crazy but never lost a turret. There is a definite difference.

I haven't had my turrets blown up yet actually. It was a good call to buff them since I have been torping way less.

yup, no lost turret today, even in kiev.  so that is working     I don't really like the new shell graphics though,  they are bit tougher to see compared to old ones.  lot less shimas,  lot more gearings and fletchers in high tier now.  lol.

Haven't lost a single turret on my Benson or Udaloi since 5.5, it's amazing. My Udaloi actually sank with all guns functioning, I've never had that occur before 5.5. Worst was when one gun on Benson was temporarily knocked out for a few seconds but again, none destroyed. High tier gun boat DDs are fun again.
