Which I don’t understand at all. I mean, seriously: German hydro Smoke 6 inch guns with good alpha Really fast torpedo reload I love it more than my elbing, and I adore my elbing. Absolute cruiser bane
It was dumb to begin with, that CCs were playing it like an Elbing and then complaining that it is worse than Elbing. Instead of looking at it like a vastly superior replacement for the Z-52.
What is it about it that makes it so much better than z52? I only see the better farming potential thanks to ballistics and accuracy, the longer range torps and 4k HP. And for that it gives up 0.3 concealment, which is very important for the smoke+hydro role, and quite a lot of HE dpm.
@@aAaa-ih3hw The concealment difference is actually rather negligible, you get spotted sooner, but by the time a dd turns away from you will most likely still spot it. It may have less HE dpm, but the guns are so much more accurate and have so much better ballistics that you just don't miss and can snipe dds even at max range. It's the same reason why Elbing is still a respectable opponent to any other dd despite it being so much worse on paper. The fact you don't miss and can literally pinpoint any part of the ship you're shooting at makes you a menace. In terms of size, both ships are thick as fuck, but you got a 25mm section that is more helpful against ships than you'd think.
DD main. Wasn't going to buy it, but got the gold version in a santa box. I was very wrong, very similar conclusions to your own. The extra armour is also nice, a lot of shatters in DD fights, which makes you surprisingly survivable alongside the HP. That 400m between conceal and hydro can be a pain into good DD players, and the ship is pretty heavy on necessary captain skills, which limits builds you can effectively run, but the overall balance of the ship (solid guns, solid torps, solid hydro, decent speed, decent survivability, decent-ish conceal) makes it really flexible.
15:10 there is a carrier bug for half of year now I think, it makes fighter consumable not go on cooldown when they get shot down or when they fly off after shooting down enemy planes so it is impacting anti plane builds the most. I wonder why they didn't fix that one yet. Don't know don't care, just thought it's funny that this particular one is in the game for so long.
there is also the thing, that you can use your ASW Air drop into the fighter action Radius. The fighter will bind and disapear. dunno if this is intentional but useful to prevent you or your team from being fighter spotted
Will you make a video on the Brennus? All popular CCs said its shit, but the server stats speak a different language and I would like to hear your opinion on it
Server stats isn't a reliable stat especially with a low sample size. (For example Tiger59 has such good stat....because only unicium CC own that ship)
I know you mentioned your build and what not, but could you maybe make a link to it with shipbuilder or something? That would be greatly appreciated. Same with captain build,and maybe, if possible, a 1,2,3,4 etc on which points to pick when?
In youre svea video, you said it had higher game impact than any of the new steel ships, do you still stand by that now that you like the hoffman more?
Given that dd players are so insanely bad in either team I would say hoffmann is even better. If people would be overall better svea is the better ship to deal with people that have hands. But both are pretty close Hoffmann just leaves the armory so id get that and svea later.
@@MarcusKuann If they are within hydro range the dpm is less of an issue because they risk getting trapped, and the alpha is also higher than shima (which is relevant when taking a very brief fight, especially relevant when cover is near or one of the two are about to go dark).
11:42 says that, and fucking goes and gets a 300k + game! :P You're pretty damn fucking good at this game, and it's just STUPID watching better people play this game so god damn effortlessly and getting 200k+ games in their sleep, whilst I struggle to get consistently 100-150k games in :P whilst the occasional 200k+ comes once in a full moon :P
It truly comes down to luck and positioning. A good DPM ship in the perfect spot of "constant targets but not too many" will have you shattering 300k every game. Don't beat yourself up for not having that perfect storm, just focus on winning the game for your team and topping the leaderboard. Those stats are what matters and consistency will show. (My damage record was 350k in a DesMoines after I had a slava push the corner broadside on for a free 75k, a stalingrad that didnt know how to angle, and 2 GK's to burn down. It was free, required next to no effort, just a point and click adventure aside from the 2km slava jumpscare xD)
Dam, want to get oranje but sadly will miss out on hoffmann. Quite happy to see 2 well made ships but ofc wg keeps the griefing shit available to purchase (as usual). Fun fact, svea also has bug, right clicking to go into free look will zoom in a little, that is it. Insignificant but I still find it funny how wg doesn't give a shit about this
Hi, I know this is a very disgusting request but since you already featured Haky and USS SUS on your channel I might as well try my luck: Would you do an Nachimov vid for me? I hate to play against it but I just love watching you crush people with stupidly op ships. Either way, thx for the content!

They reinvented Z52 twice before buffing the actual Z52, what a dumb world we live in.
Appreciate the dissenting take. Most people are saying its bad
Which I don’t understand at all. I mean, seriously:
German hydro
Smoke

I do like the details of this ship, but the steel price is a hard pass. This should be a coal ship.
Humble skinny P, thanks for more frequent vids

Super informative and intelligent analysis, also great video. Subbed, thank you.

I never heard of that bug but I also haven’t played cvs in ages

Hey great video! You're definitely one of the best current wows RUclipsrs, you've definitely earned another sub
Looks interesting. Definitely better than I thought it would be. Thanks for sharing Skinny PP.
I've got the DD today, and i'm 100% agree with you dude. Is realy fun to play and feels grate😊
Will you make a video on the Brennus? All popular CCs said its shit, but the server stats speak a different language and I would like to hear your opinion on it
Server stats also show CV players are the most skilled players, what's your logic?
That one is really just bad 😂
Server stats isn't a reliable stat especially with a low sample size. (For example Tiger59 has such good stat....because only unicium CC own that ship)
I think sample bias is likely the reason Brennus overperforms statwise - only longtime players who have RP to burn are buying it.
Server stats say Gibraltar is one of the best cruisers in the game.
Because it is played almost exclusively by masochistic unicums.
Nice review mate. I think Hoffmann is going to be part of the CW very soon.
So what equipment do you use and commander skills? This video is great!
I know you mentioned your build and what not, but could you maybe make a link to it with shipbuilder or something? That would be greatly appreciated. Same with captain build,and maybe, if possible, a 1,2,3,4 etc on which points to pick when?
I will play it live and talk about the build there
@@P4inish Fair enough :)
So this or Oranje if you have G.Louwen and Elbing?
Man, i dont have enough steal and i got a freaking chikuma from the boxes. It is very annoying.
Thats wargambling for you it sucks to have to pay to get these
@@P4inish Luckly i didnt pay. I got 9 santa mega box with certificates, which gave me one golden crate, then I got amazing chikuma.

Thank you for the video. I wish I had gotten this first over PVO. Now I have to grind 26k steel somehow.
Looks like a T11 ship compared to z52
Wouldnt go that far,when shima has 26% more HE dpm
@@MarcusKuann shima doesnt have railgun arcs and dispersion
@@banhbaothit1629 Sure,but when ur fighting dds at 6km railguns dont really matter
@@MarcusKuann If they are within hydro range the dpm is less of an issue because they risk getting trapped, and the alpha is also higher than shima (which is relevant when taking a very brief fight, especially relevant when cover is near or one of the two are about to go dark).
@@samuelhakansson6680 Sure you have hydro+smoke gimmick but you still have same dpm as a frikkin T7 Maass.
Nice vid! Thx
Nice Whats your commander build ?
comming in the live gameplay video
disliked for "car"
and I always thought the kraut "humour" thing was a meme
You arse. Liked for whole thing, especially 23:37
i might take this guy...was gonna take Shinano for history but this boat looks fun
Thank you

I just rolled Prins van Oranje on my second free mega container lol. Can't wait for the video on it!
Happy wargambling
i mean cool but i cant buy it so whats the point
It’s him
Mr centre-of-the-universe spotted.
Damn good game!
Dam, want to get oranje but sadly will miss out on hoffmann. Quite happy to see 2 well made ships but ofc wg keeps the griefing shit available to purchase (as usual). Fun fact, svea also has bug, right clicking to go into free look will zoom in a little, that is it. Insignificant but I still find it funny how wg doesn't give a shit about this
You can actually citadel moskvas from like 11 km. Funny shit.
hey gang eine echt schöne hoffmann runde,lg schutzmann
If you want a damage farmer DD why not just get the Khaba then?
There are tons of DDs to get for damage farming thats more effective than Hoffmann
Schweinbraten good content. 🐷🍠👍

Sorry but I won’t do any Cv or sub vids since I won’t even purchase the new cv and sub
@ Aight, I totally get that. Thanks nonetheless.
