After the MM change, you have the greatest chance of being in a tier 7/6/5 game. I have yet to encounter a tier 4/5 game. So that means all those old OP tier 5 ships really aren't so OP anymore. Murmansk, Gremyaschy, Kamikaze R... all face enemies that are far stronger, some of which have radar now. Tier 6 will probably never be top tier either. So what's that leave us with? Tier 7. Tier 8 brings you to tier 10 games, and repair costs grow substantially from 7 to 8... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tougher to sneak up on carriers when they know there is somebody spotting them. By the time a DD gets into visual range, they could have called for help and have a CA or two racing back to ruin your carefully planned kill. BBs are probably spotted anyway unless hiding behind islands. I assume very few BB or CV players picked the skill originally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
40 [-VT-] zeke3 Members 113 posts 17,200 battles Report post #10 Posted August 4, 2016 It's much harder now for the Kami R Last night I got top spot on my team in a tier 7 battle in mine, but that was due to a lot of capping, and I have my 17pt Fubuki captain in it. They just keep changing things for the worse for DD's.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tier 8 brings you to tier 10 games, and repair costs grow substantially from 7 to 8... You should rejoice....seriously, not joking. When I play my Fujin/Kamikaze R, I don't like low tier games. Too many DD's in them all just salivating over DD vs DD combat. You sink a few, then you die, look at your dmg and remind yourself why low tier games just suck in IJN DD's. Give me tier 7 all day every day. Nice juicy high hp BB's, less yoloing DD's and tons more dmg to be had. What's not to like. Edit---also if you're chasing CV's, you are doing it wrong. Wreck their BB's and make the win a near certainty. Killing a CV is just icing on the cake if they happen to wander close. Actively chasing a fleeing CV is like chasing a Kongo class BB, you're likely to die(Minekaze, Fujin, Kamikaze R are too slow). Better to break off and surprise the unwary.

420 Gyphon_GF Members 595 posts 25,886 battles Report post #12 Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) *Salute* I have 1057 matches in my Kami......and yes since the patch it has been rough. Then again it has gone the other way as well at times... Except for a few matches..probably 6/10 matches I've done horrible. I had an 8 kill match last Friday and probably close to five or so kraks since then as well. I know one thing.....RADAR SUCKS WG what is going on with the anti Destroyer kick you guys are on? And my torp hit count is WAY down for some reason.......Not a clue why though....I just continue on doing what I do.

There are a lot of beaches so they spot you with ease. Torp cannot hit but guns will hit you. You can still ambush but is harder. DD get another little nerf.
