10,399 [B2P] Taichunger Members 13,459 posts 44,054 battles Report post #1 Posted September 7, 2016 (edited) I was divved with the excellent Chien Lu Anderman, each of us in a shiny new Konig Albert. The dispersion is a problem once in a while, but at the ranges you engage at, not really important. The AP is German ('nuff said), and she is as resistant to damage as any German BB. Seems fast enough, and her secondaries wreck. Once you get the captain trained up, those secondaries will be fearsome. I can hear the yelping of the seals in the distance....

10,399 [B2P] Taichunger Members 13,459 posts 44,054 battles Report post #11 Posted September 7, 2016 (edited) I think it is too early to say that she is OP. It's going to be very player-related. Experienced players will wreck because at the ranges the KA engages at, they won't miss. I had six kills, 5 of which were under 5 kms.

363 [SDIWO] LubzinNJ Members 1,218 posts 6,659 battles Report post #13 Posted September 7, 2016 I wasn't sure about getting this one but from the reviews saying its like that certain T-IV BB that will never be sold again and for the need of another ship to put my new German BB captain through daily training...yeah 12 bucks is an easy amount to justify spending. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4,521 [WOLF7] awiggin Members 12,620 posts Report post #19 Posted September 7, 2016 People are actually excited and bragging about an OP tier 3 ship? This game is really going downhill in a hurry. Sad part is, people don't even seem to realize it. Encouraging seal clubbing at lower tiers is the reason this game won't grow, and not only do people buy into it, they rush out and hand money to WG to help..... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Part of my regrets passing on the Nikolai, purely for its mythical OP status, but then I remember that playing tier 3 is neither challenging nor rewarding other than to club others Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2 Jubb360 Beta Testers 15 posts 4,026 battles Report post #23 Posted September 7, 2016 Well to be honest I'm not likely to use my tier 5 captains no the KA. Just because its not worth the low xp I would get at that tier. But I will be using the t3 and t4 Bob captains on it,until I get 10 points then use them on my higher tier premiums.

Encouraging seal clubbing at lower tiers is the reason this game won't grow, and not only do people buy into it, they rush out and hand money to WG to help..... There are far FAR more problems with the game than silly Nikolai or Fat Albert. Fixing CVs (By fixing ships AA / plane HP / squadron types and numbers, overhauling the interface to make it more fun to use) Fixing Fire spam (HE spam is ok) Fixing BBs insta-deleting CR/CL at high tiers Fixing the lot of tech-tree UP ships... and the lot of tech-tree OP ships Fixing the MM (remove Tier one altogether and move them to tier 0 for newbs, then restore the 10 tier tree and re-fix encounters for T5) Fixing the revenues at high-tier (loot boxes better be good and work in PvE as well because PvE has even more repair cost issues). Fixing some game modes And I am forgetting a lot of other, I never actually made a list to refer to. Premium being stronger is only a problem with Invis-fire and fire chance... in the case of a BB it's the same strategies than usual. I've sunk my share of "OP" imperator nikolai in PvP with total ease. Fat Albert wont be an exception. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
