The SP shells on the Kirov are an absolute joke. Why even bother having them? I bounce AP at close range from my Kirov on lower tier ships constantly even from broadside.

If you can't use the AP on the Kirov, that's a PBKAC issue.

Angle armour, I have noticed of late that AP is bouncing off more , maybe a change in mechanics related... Or not

I'm close to unlocking Kirov.

 

How are people's opinions of Kirov?

 

She's a good ship and has great scrapping potential, but you need to do everything in your power to keep that lady angled. She cries like a virgin every time she gets penetrated.

 

Also a ship that can reliably citadel a St. Louis is always welcome.

...I can citadel a New York through the main belt with it...

 

And the AP absolutely trashes other cruisers.  Deals just enough damage to be powerful without a cit, and is accurate enough to make the former a moot point usually.  Don't take my word, I'll just leave this here instead.

I'm close to unlocking Kirov.

Watch the entire video above.  She's a gun monster but if you mess up even once in your defensive posturing you are boned.

Kidding I can reliably citadel a St. Louis with a Marblehead. Just gotta know where to hit it.

She's a good ship with amazing guns. However she has meh armor, turns like a Battleship, and her AA is nothing really to write home about so keep an eye out for TBs cause if you get caught in the gears, you're done son.

Strong but slow guns.

Fast but cannot turn.

Non-existent armor.

Positioning is everything in a cruiser, but the Kirov takes even more risks in exchange for better reward.
