That's a lot of hits!

[Citrusss]

The most I got in a single game so far: 518

 

 

 

Khabarovsk has really fast guns! 

[JojoTheMongol]

The Khab... a cruiser without a citadel, sporting laser guns, a jet turbine for propulsion, and classified a DD.

 

How much damage?

[Camo68]

Very good, I'll see your 518 and raise you by 11

 

 

 

[VTAdmiral]

Remember kids, Russian ships are balanced and the Soviet Navy is the pinnacle of naval technological development through all of history.

[Compassghost]

But can you send your rounds into orbit and still get hits?

[Kuckoo]

Khabarovsk News.  Fair and Balanced.

How much damage?

Just over 140k. Not too much

Well done, sir! Makes me want to shoot some more

That exact fight Gearing did much more damage than me. I think he doubled or close to it. 3800 XP (G) vs 2500 XP (Kh / me)

 

Ru DDs cons:

1. Have no stealth to match any other destroyers

2. Nearly no invisifire zone

3. Inferior torpedoes in every aspect: range, damage, reload time and at t10 - speed

4. Bad-bad-bad maneuverability and turning circle - I can't dodge even 10% as much of incoming shells as on Fletcher

Pros:

1. Greater speed

2. Great guns

 

They are balanced. Just have completely different play style. Some people can't play Ru DDs, some can't play IJN and some USN. Somewhat easier, yes, just point and shoot, but not unbalanced

[Camo68]

Yes I have the USS Cape Canaveral Gearing as well

[Skramjet]

Lol when can the USN DDs actually do something... I swear those 127mm guns are like, designed by NASA as the first space program.

  Soviet experimental fast attack speedboat powered by nuclear fusion turbine is stronk.

Except that that range they don't need stealth fire anyways.  Just play sniper like a cruiser without a citadel and the turning is good enough to avoid fire at long range. Just roll BFT/AFT/ and demo instead of a tier 5 skill and rain hell.

A. USN DDs aren't meant to fight max range, they perform just fine at close and medium range. B. Have you seen the state of the Kagero and Shimakaze lately?

My Khaby range is 15.6 km, I think it is max. My Fletcher range is 15.5 km and I still can mount a module to add another kilometer or so (10%). Yes, Fletcher will not hit a mountain at that range but it is not less.

A khab can reliably hit at 15.6, a Fletcher, good luck.  Plus the guns on the Khab hit harder and she has 8.

Sweet Jaysus that's ridiculous 

[Citrusss]

But it's a trade off for stealth and ability to land 10 torps into an enemy battleship. Chipping of bits with guns is another approach. Not better or worse, just different

[Wowzery]

Hmm, the most I've gotten lately was about 50 or so.  A bit harder to get 500+ hits in a BB.

[Fog_Battlecruiser_Haruna]

back in CBT i had 650 hits with my atlanta.

I'll give you a hint, his EXP total wasn't due to damage.

[Citrusss]

Mostly damage. He sank 3 battleships with 100% HP and 1 shimakaze (I helped a bit but he did most of the job) and 1 cap. 

[Stratego89]

 

 

"The Atlanta isn't OP" they said. "The Atlanta isn't even good" they said.

 

Here is my proof...

[Nachoo31]

I had 101 in a tashkant this weekend.. It not a easy line to play.

[BladedPheonix]

 

 

MG powers activate!

 

Also: Anyone else think the gun sounds simular to a old steam engine?

[Estimated_Prophet]

Great for the OP to do so well; but whatever... Call it jealousy, it probably is; but I'll never understand how an enemy team ever lets someone survive and/or go unpunished long enough to rack up so many hits...

 

This is basically scoring a hit every 2.3 seconds for the ENTIRETY of a 20 minute game.
