Guest Guest 0 posts Report post #7 Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) Its a beautiful Warship, I can't wait to get her eventually when the tree is released to the live server, she seems like a excellent Mid tier Ship, and is likely very fun to play as well judging by LWM's review.

The ship was overpowered, and Wargaming, seeing that issue, Wargaming decided to fix the issue, and put her back into the right place in her tier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

9 Marine_Diesel Members 252 posts 1,781 battles Report post #14 Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) Yup, they definitely nerfed the ship alright.... Penetration the 28.3cm guns is slightly lacking when compared to technical test charts.WG might be using incorrect values. And didn't take into account the 20 degree pre-angle of armor the gun was being tested against. 10,936 yards (10,000 m) 13.70" (348 mm) 16,404 yards (15,000 m) 11.02" (280 mm) 21,872 yards (20,000 m) 8.86" (225 mm) 27,340 yards (25,000 m) 7.64" (194 mm) (The above information is from "German Capital Ships of World War Two." The data is based upon the pre-war Krupp test shoots on their range in Meppen with L/4,4 APC projectiles using RPC/32 propellant against KC-type armor at an impact angle of 70 degrees. It should be noted that RPC/32 propellant was replaced by the more powerful RPC/38 type which was the only propellant used in World War II.)So based on simply calculating the 20 degree test armor angling to zero degrees the buff would be:363mm to 370mm at 10KM289mm to 298mm at 15KM238mm? to 242mm at at 20KM (Marginal) Not even taking into account any other physics involved in shells penetration. Fix should be simple(I don't care how though):A: Mostly by improving the "Projectile Krupp" value a bit. (Quality of AP shell, I believe. I don't know the value.)B: Reducing the drag constant a slight bit. Seems already really low @ .2827 but still workable. Maybe it could be .2810?So in conclusion, the velocity of the 28.3cm guns is accurate but the penetration is subpar.. There is some room for an AP buff on Scharnhorst without the ship being OP. Even 1 millimeter could mean the difference between getting penetration damage or a citadel.

1,729 Eisennagel Beta Testers 11,724 posts Report post #16 Posted September 10, 2016 (edited) One can definitely see some nerfing going on. This is based on official WoWs video. This is the Navweaps tables. Note the numbers correspond closer to the right but the explanation on the bottom says, they were not using the weaker propellant during the war. So the numbers on the left should be correct. Edited September 10, 2016 by Eisennagel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,729 Eisennagel Beta Testers 11,724 posts Report post #17 Posted September 10, 2016 Even when taking account of using the Nathan Okun's Facehard formula, see tables http://www.navweaps.com/index_nathan/Penetration_Germany.htm At 15 km, you would still have penetration between 317 to 327mm.
