A rage-aholic's Boredom AMA about WOWS

[aether_tech]

Super boring Sunday. Lets type stuff.

[giovybez]

lol why you not out there playing German BB?

[pmgaudio]

[VTAdmiral]

I only ever see you pop up in conversations about Udaloi and Khabarovsk so I know you like them.

 

Have you ever seriously played anything other than Russian destroyers?

[ZombieFlanders]

my rage/boredom...just got the konig, only have firecontrol upgraded so far and am stock otherwise. i keep getting put into T7 games where the T7s are useless chumps who die in the first few minutes...the 'skill' of the playerbase seems to be dropping to WoT levels...extremely tiresome for a solo player looking to the game for some relaxation and it turns into a chore due to these fools...

Why play inferior class when you can play stronk Soviet machines of death?

For a change of pace?

As soon as they released the new cruiser line, I'll grind the German BB line. Maybe. I've kinda lost my enjoyment of BBC, can't be aggressive with them as I can DDs.

Yeah I get that but I meant seriously. You seriously play RU destroyers and are obviously good in them as a result, for example.

[AVR_Project]

Replaced the rear brake cylinder in the Taurus.  Stupid metal brake line snapped off.

Had to drive my dual-sport 16 miles to get a new line IN THE RAIN.  It's not like I can hop in the car when the brakes are in pieces.

They had to mix/match something since the ends were weird.  Finally got it back together....

Bled off the air using the tygon-tube-in brake fluid container method (required if there is no help)

Wheel still grinds when the lug nuts are torqued.  Spins easy when finger tight.

Need to test drive it to make sure it doesn't get red-hot and burn the car down.

....

Don't believe everything you find on the Internet...  Especially if it sounds clever.

And my rant?   No time to play WOWS.

Whats wrong with RU dds? XD

[VTAdmiral]

I won't get into that in this thread. I'm more curious if Aether plays or enjoys anything else or if he's an RU DD "Main".

[aether_tech]

I am a Gunship DD main. Wickes, Clemson, Izyaslav, Blys, Fletcher, Udaloi, Khab. And eventually Kiev and Gearing. An Anshan would be nice to have too.

No Lo Yang, no Benson?

[aether_tech]

Benson is a slightly worse Fletcher,please so no reason to have it. The Lo Yang is a 4- gun Benson with very situational hydro and not worth its current price? 

[Sink_Stuff]

So I have a question for you then. I just bought the Blyskawica and it comes with a free zero point captain. But if i dismiss that guy and buy a new 3 point captain with 50 gold, will that new 3 point captain still be the lowest rank. In essence is a 50 gold new captain totally worth it because you are buying 3 extra points?

 

(edit to add)

 

Just tried it and nope, its not extra, they just give him some rank for 25 gold. Not worth it.

lol. No, it doesn't give anything more than a shortcut. That being said...I did for the Bliss to get EMI right off the bat.

Well, can't play the game, that's for sure. So, here you go:

 

STUFF

[Sink_Stuff]

Would you reccomend buying the Kutuzov to use to train Russian DD captains? I already have the Murmansk, Molotov, and Nicoli, but the ships do not seem compatible with dd captain skills as much as the Kutuzov is. Perhaps just use the Murmansk? I wish they would sell another premium Russian dd to use instead.

last time they did a Russian premium destroyer they declared it so OP that they'd never sell it again.

Chinese server did leak something about a possible russian T7 dd with 8km torps... though it is the chinese server so who knows

It'll be Veriny/Bephim, I bet.

 

Tier 7 Fubuki reskin.

At least it will be (A) a russian dd like was asked about and (B) a premium dd rather than a cruiser or bb

It'll also be a tier 8 in a tier 7 slot.

fair point too. Most RU ships don't see 8km torps till T8 (MOST of them >.>)
