AGINCOURT ONE TAKE PLEASSEEEE PQ!!! It super strong at low tier and a surprisingly consistent battleship that i think you would enjoy very much if you gave it another chance.
Full secondary build too. It actually has the highest secondary dpm of any ship in the game (including the Schlieffen!).
@@bent404yes ofc you would go for anything else. And yes it does slightly edge out shliffen to have the best hitting dpm out of any ship olin the game which is crazy for a tier 5
Having literally zero AA is understandably a deal-breaker for a lot of people, especially with how prolific CVs have been at low tier with the recent addition of "support" carriers.
@@aristosachaion_ yeah, the AA is for ballanz. But a good support CV can smoke you up and just let your secondaries wail from both sides.
@@aristosachaion_ to be fair full AA build BBs won’t last any longer anyway
I'd love to see a similar series on the steel cruisers!
I've had the Lauria a month now and can't stop playing it. It's a really good as long as the RNG gods are on your side and the big SAP guns make it a lot of fun and pretty unique. Certainly the second best steel ship after the Bourgogne and she looks good too.
Pretty sure the overpen damage from full pens comes from hitting secondaries or penning turrets. I remember a year ago I was in a Nelson facing an Atlantico, got off a beautiful broadside AP salvo with 6 hits, and only did a total of 9k damage due to mostly penning his secondaries.
yes, they only receive overpen damage when hit no matter what and no matter the saturation
@@snoboreddotcomtechnically AP can overpen them and deal pen damage if it hits and pens something behind it
Through it only happens on ships that have secondaries below main deck
As an Italian ship main I will definitely be getting this first when I have the steel because it fuels my addiction to the spaghetti boats
As a fellow pasta main, I 100% support this decision. You won't regret it.
Italian ship main? That exists? Such a self torture :D
@@vitezslavlorenc3479 it is. Although the cruiser line is a pleasure to play imo.
Congrats on the 50k and I love playing this ship, I find it very tanky and the damage output is awesome.......Also I believe the guns have one of the lowest dispersion numbers at this tier for a BB its like 191 oh and PQ I believe the trolling is from the game in all BBs not the fault of the Lauria....
Really enjoyed your breakdown on steel battleships - thanks(and prompted me to get Lauria)
Last night I was playing randoms with JB. I caught a jinan broadside to me at 6km, I shot first time and got 5 over pens, then I popped my reload boost and the next two salvos I got a lot of over pens 2 penetrations and not a single citadel. So, yes, this ship will be my first steel ship. Looking forward to shot sap on cruisers and actually get the damage I deserve.
When getting a special resource ship ask your self a question: dose this ship do something unique that is not really offered elsewhere in the line up the stronger the yes the better the argument for getting it.
@benjamingasaway9882 thats not a valid thing anymore. None of the special resource ships have a gimmick that you cant get elsewhere.
@@micklane7306 slava's characteristics are only offered on a t8 premium I guess you could argue the new ijn bc t10 but the flight time is different so it's be is a island camper dunker the other is a turn punisher.
@benjamingasaway9882 st Vincent does nearly the same thing with short fuse ap. And Slava is not an impressive ship at all. It's gimmick is underwhelming and the rest of the ship suffers for it.
what t8 premium has slava characteristics@@benjamingasaway9882
Was waiting to pick up Incomp with the coupon when they released Lauria. It seemed like a no brainer since I had all but Incomp and Shiki. Sadly, new year has been crazy, so first games really today, in Brawls. Seems strong though. Good vid.
I am sorry but my Lauria just doesnt work this way, my dispersion is all over the place, SAP sometimes bounces off superstructures, or sometimes penetrates cruisers dealing 1000, sometimes it just hits torpedo protection on target broadsiding ship. I had battles where all shells either bounced off or splashed all over the place. Mind i have the same build you have, and still i find this ship to be the biggest troll of all WG ships.
I really enjoy Lauria. Had a fair few games and found it very easy to get used to. It's reasonably accurate but the best thing is that a lot of people underestimate how strong it is and simultaneously don't shoot it because they know it has strong armour. Additionally it's fast and handles well, with excellent torpedo protection.
damn PQ, respect the accountability around the Iowa situation. well done man.
What Iowa?
I just got it because of this video.. holy smokes you undersold it. This is easily in my top 3 favorite ships. So much fun and easily averages 150k dmg.
I selected the Shikishima and never looked back... I had already the Meck and the Bourg, but was missing something and was the gun sound... everything else is secondary :-P
Some of us play sound-off (that includes Solitude btw).
Honestly SAP was a mistake as it was implemented. Think I said this before but it really should have been slightly better pen HE, with damage between HE and AP and slightly improved pen angles, not MUCH better pen than HE with more damage than AP, and stupidly improved pen angles. Sure you do benefit from swapping to AP for broadsides, but at the same time, you don't lose much of anything for not just spamming SAP. At least with HE you have 1/3 of your AP's raw damage most of the time. You give up a lot of raw damage for the consistency. SAP gets more damage and keeps the consistency. Oh but it can't light fires so that makes it balanced. As if fires were something to be relied on.
Lauria was on my short list for first steel ship purely because of that. I only didn't grab her because I prefer large Cruisers more and Battleship Stalingrad was just to tempting.
"Sorry, it usually doesn't do that" - actually manages to land another 20k salvo on that Satsuma
At the 5m potential damage game: The enemy pretty much never used HE for your angled ship, which is of course totally dumb. Every time I deal with the Lauria, I only use AP, when it goes broadside. Lauria and Petro are the ships, where HE is the tool to go with, when you play against them.
been going back and forth about what to get next, this ship or the Mecklenburg. after seeing this clip i have decided to go for the Lauria.
i already have 50 other high tier German secondary BBs, so this makes good sense.
Mecklenberg is a lot of fun but found best not to build into secondaries and thatt the AP will troll you. You'd think the sheer volume of shells would get you more Cits than it does (another reason to build into main battery). Awesome alpha on 16 he shells tho and tanky. No hydro :/
Mecklenburg is a cruiser murderer. The alpha is anemic but you can light a lot of fires and the guns are very accurate. I like her a lot. Laria is my next ship.
21 Sansonetti is on my sauro, gunrange equals concealement, Most OP ship, Wish the upper tear Italien dds would function Like it
I might have missed it, but you do complain about "battleship dispersion" at one point, so it seems important to note Lauria has **battlecruiser** dispersion and also short fuse AP. This kinda review video should probably mention factors like that if you want them to help people pick ships.
I heard that the Lauria is less worth it now that the Columbo got buffed.
Lauria actually has identical dispersion to Stalingrad (I'm still researching and debating which of the two is my next steel ship) but with only 1.8 sigma as opposed to Stalingrad's (frankly ridiculous) 2.65.
Tf? Really 2.6?!
@@therecklesswarlock6439 2.65 is not a typo. She's been powercrept over the years, especially now that she can't build into survivability in the HE spam-heavy meta we live in now, but yeah, those guns are flat out criminal.
-BC dispersion
-Insane sigma
-Improved pen angles
-Russian rail gun ballistics
-Shorter-than-normal AP fuse time (they're midway between standard and British short fuse AP)
Plus she gets excellent armor (except the nose) a 50mm icebreaker, Soviet radar AND decent (by current standards, anyway) AA plus DFAA on top of that?
@@gregoryfolsom7882the biggest downside of the Stalingrad today is its consealment. 14km is insane.
@@neishark1735A lot of strong ships back then used to have worse concealment to slightly balance them. Nowadays, there's too much concealment powercreep.
I have both. The stalingrad is way more consistent, the lauria has guns more like graf spee, as in sometimes the guns just troll you. That doesn't happen with stalingrad. Also you get one great salvo with lauria and then the ship gets saturated. Still a great ship tho, lauria was my 3rd steel ship after bourg and stalingrad. I regret nothing.
I chunked a MALTA with 5 SAP hits (3 citadels) for 60k in that thing last week. It's a monster.
I'll definitely try to get this ship. I absolutely love colombo so I'll probably like this one as well
You play Colombo on secondaries ship/commander build or as main gun structure/build?
Secondaries on colombo have no pen, not worth it imo
I have it as my first steelship and its great, wow
"Sorry it usually doesnt do that" 😂
PQ please use your CC connections to foward more events/missions at low tiers, played about 7 years and miss using silly British dd TIII Campbeltown. Lots of fun in low tiers too
Regarding expert loader, Sansonetti has the buffed skill, identical to the American captains. Even if Lauria doesn’t have the baked in she’ll switch buff of the tech line ships, the shell switch speed is insane when running that.
the not realizing the need to push reminds me of a halland game i had yesterday. 311k spotting damage 150k dmg and 2400 base exp on a loss. Why did I loose? I thought we would win on points because I did not notice one of my team died, when I last looked we were still in the lead. I had 3 MINUTES to rush down a half hp gouden that was 6km away behind an island with me having had 3/4 of my health left. Since I thought I would win I waited for him to push. the loss popup made me realise and damn, that was emberrassing xD
I got the Incomp and realized how i f'd up reaaaal bad. Its sad that it'll take me a long time to get enough steel again for Lauria
I love Lauria. Probably the least amount of effort needed as a bb player. I find it way easier to play than the likes of Thunderer, Bourgogne, Yamato etc. SAP is just, easy.
Module hits deal only 10% dmg
So if you hit and pen main or secondary gun turret with SAP/HE it will give you pen worth only 10% dmg since they don't get through it like AP
With just 8 guns these hits might be more apparent
Congrats again on the 50k
I played against you in that third game. I was in the Yoda. I didn't expect you to come up on me that fast and I decided to send my torps your way instead of getting out of there. Totally though you where going to ending me being broadside to you! Was a fun game!
Hi PQ, thank You for your content. I like to watch it and learn some new things. Backing to the topic, I have BOURGONE as my first steel ship. Now I'm almost to get next one. I like much play battleships, so Mecklenburg or R.Lauria? :)
Both are great ship, so I would say it comes down to which nation you tend to play more of.
first impression of this ship, meeting as its opponent dd, it seemed like a ship that spurted saps with extreme joy to anything with in its secondary range.
Highest potential damage of any ship I've ever played. Got 5.9 mill in a game with the Lauria the other day.
Does Lauria have the additional baked in expert loader buff the TT Italian BBs get?
no, its on the tech tree BBs that get it
im struggling with Mecky or Lauria (I have a Bourgy and a Incomp already)
Lauria and its not even close
Fast flanking BB, able to support and reposition, really good concealment, overpowered when good dispersion, overmatch that doesn’t care about cruiser armor…hmmmmm, sounds like an Incomparable
Better armour.
I have to decide soon - Lauria or Z-42? for ranked mainly
@PotatoQuality Since Lauria is not available on CIS and Bourg is not what I want - what do you think of an idea of a T10 4x4 Illinois we're getting instead?
It will be my only steel ship so I really want to not make a mistake. Other options are Stalingrad (nose/bow in tanking is not what amuses me) and Ragnar (tho I have Sherman and Groningen, but not particularly enjoy them).
Or just wait (but unlikely we'll get a new steel ship this year)?
Im pretty sure Lauria is a random crate drop on CIS… for some reason
@@BigD321 *was* a crate drop. Now not available. Might appear in the future, but the chances are slim. Other options seem very sad:
• I was thinking of Incomparable, but almost everyone points out to it's inconsistency.
• Bourg - for a sneaky flanking kind of gameplay followed by head on dives it's just a downgrade over JB (worse conceal, worse reload, rear turret in a dive almost never will be used, and a bit more HP don't justify spending steel on it).
• Was thinking of Stalingrad previously, but realized I did not enjoy any soviet cruiser gameplay other than Smolenks for it's ability to dominate DDs on points or deal 8-12k salvos (because 10 ms fuse) each 4 seconds to bow/stern plating of a BB who decides to brawl you.
• Shikishima - same problems as Incomp, but now with no conceal or good mobility to speak of.
• Austin - floating explodium (could've gotten it for coal, but it's not worthy of steel).
• Z-42 - not even funny for a steel ship.
• Komissar - ew hybrid.
• Plymouth - same gameplay as tech tree.
• Vallejo - generic HE spammer with Lazo's spotter.
All that's left is Ragnar and upcoming New Hampshire (16 DM guns Montana).
@@КонстантинКареев-т2пwhen will be NEW HAMPSHIRE? IN game
Will you go for steel cruisers after this?
Nothing like the Burger 🍔
Hey PQ. How about adding GK, Slava, and Ohio to your list as non-steel alternates?
Do Steel cruisers next please!!
Just got it…hope your video turns out positive on that question 😂
sounds like PQ leaning towards lauria over bourgogne recommendation.
I have the Borg what took you so long?
Hi PQ, love your vids. Y'all seem like the crowd to answer me this: why is Hayate, a premium Harugumo worse than Harugumo?
Less pen, dpm, range and hp. It's more comparable to Gearing than 'gumo imo.
BAD DPM.
Hayate is a premium Shimakaze, not Harugumo. Better reload on otherwise identical 127mm guns, better base health, loses a torp rack and slower reloading torps (does get torpedo reload booster though), and the concealment takes a major hit (base 7.5 vs 6.9).
As the other comments have said, Hayate is more of a Shima + Gearing mix than a Haru.
@@gregoryfolsom7882i think that Hayate is different than Shima and as a torper Shima is better. I like Hayate but play it bad (my fault) and I hate Napoli in the same time. Hayate is much cheaper to play, and it gets me some silver after each battle. Shima - no))) silver
Yes
Forgot to mention short fuse on the AP
I would take the Patrie over it. Even though it's a t-11
Best part of the entire video starts @6:57
At the moment I wouldn't buy her again. The shells are dropping extrem inaccurate . So speed etc isn t really not a gamechanger . If you go fast in Front you only die fast there.
is there any way to get the special italian commander nowadays? Or i'm just SOL?
U can buy the container for the collection in the armoury for coal to get it .
resolute and rapid containers, 6000 coal for each
Sansonetti is worth ALL the coal, but he will cost you as much as a coal ship unless you're lucky.
Guys I almost have anough steel for bourg or lauria, which one do I get? I wanted lauria at first, but the Bourgogne Looks really appealing too.
I went with Mecklenburg as my first steel ship and haven't regretted it once. Turns out WOWS is actually pretty fun when you're not held hostage by dispersion RNGeezus.
Find out tomorrow! Both are good (and better than Mecklenderg).
Bourgogne is certainly the best and the one to get first followed by the Lauria
I've had a lot of fun with Bourgogne, and a lot of others have said the same. It is more of a large cruiser though. It's closer to a Marseille than the Repub.
Bourgogne is better. The HE plus the range, plus the reload booster is just better overall
Attempt #3 please take out tier 8 baltimore
What mod do you use?

What about FDR ^^
First!
Happy new Year, king
No Stalingrad?
Not a BB (although it's close).
you would of deleted that puerto rico with ap.
Day 4 of asking for Gato review since you're doing steel reviews
Screw the sea-lice.
457 SAP... I don't know what WG is smoking but it sure as hell is laced with shit.
Its op as feck does not need American Gun loader and is one of the many reasons why people are quitting the game in droves the tier X shit-fest carries on.
Not sure why people still believe that Bourgogne is the ultimate steel ship when something like a stalingrad is just better over all
Most people are BB mains in NA
It’s situational. The Stalin is very consistent and has radar utility as well as the speed and flank play like the Bourger. But the reload booster on the Bourger and the speed boost can, in certain situations, devastate a flank very quickly.
And Marco Polo sucks!
