Amalfi looks like a miniature Roma.... I always forget (for the first match, at least) that I can upgrade the hull and fire control on these "tech tree premium" ships... Heh. GK pops around a corner aiming at you. "Oh no." JUMP CUT Gee whiz, wonder what happened with the GK looking into the depths of your soul... Also always pay attention to your smoke firing detection range. It may save your life. I see you're also staying on AP a little too much. Yes, SAP will also bounce, but only at much steeper angles than AP. Use only SAP for a match, see how it feels to you. If you still can't do it, Italian cruisers may not be for you. I'd vote for a range and reload buff instead of a heal. I'll kill your range, but you could put Torpedo Acceleration on your captains. Turns them from Sea Mines to Turtle Torpedoes.
They're simply mediocre ships. The smoke is a gimmick, it's gone too fast. Use it to get safely into cover or into a position for a kill shot. The torps are really slow, you need to surprise people or catch straight line warriors with them outside of close quarters combat. I do not regret getting the ships, I got all 4 with the 10 crate package. I'll choose the German or British cruisers over the Italians in any competitive situations. I am interested in using them in scenarios, see how they chew up bots.
Depends on how you play I guess, I don't have the T8 German CA so I can't comment on that but the Amalfi does have some good points like if you spec it out for rudder shift you can easily dodge incoming fire or torps like crazy and sort of sits between the British and American lines in play style where you have to play a bit of both where you have the fire power of the Americans and the amour of the British so to speak, if it had a heal or sonar and faster torps it would be much better liked I think.
Its the first time I really think you didn’t play a ship the right way imho. There were a lot of times you should’ve used SAP. Also you smoked up inside of the firing range bloom a lot.
I really hate these SAP! They are too slow and floaty and are mostly useless where you'd need them most: heavy armoured and/or higly angled targets. These ammos have no splash damage to modules, and bounce or shatter like crazy, especially at the low tiers meaning if you find yourself involved in a fight with something big and nasty (which happens at the beginning of the game), you prematurely end the game with little to no damage dealt despite landing a lot of hits... I was really hoping they would conform Aosta and Abruzzi with SAP per nerf, but now, as bad as these HC are (worst of the lot), I hope they will not do that and keep the shitty HC because SAP is even worse. FFS: 2700dmg with 4 penetrating 203 shells?!? May be after the first testing batch, WG realized these would not be in the Russian techtree and they nerfed these cruser to oblivion... >___>
Soooo many misplays, not trying to be mean. Just alot of missed opportunities and thinking the 203 AP is gonna perform better than any other 203 cruiser, bar the US improved pen angles. Stick with SAP and use AP on flat cruisers and flat lower tier BB's. American AP would have bounced the exact same way vs that Yamato and even the Izumo, if u shoot in the wrong spots , of course. Your one of the more honest CC's that doesn't grovel at WG'ings feet. These ships def have a higher skill ceiling, but I have gotten better and better and they are re-teaching me about map awareness and positioning. Sometimes I find it best to go dark and get to the flank where people are put into a crossfire and have to make decisions, usually poor ones. The T8 def should have a heal as u said.
Sorry but it’s a stupid ship, to big of a target 🎯, I can do so much better using other nationality ship , for a tier 8 ship it needs a extra turret in the back , and no torps because you are very exposed to use them .
"lets jump right into her" TOO MANY JOKES

8:34 “meeeeeeeeow”
Thank you ^^
Nice review Sea Lord! Just for fun I bought two containers with some spare doubloons and my first one netted the Amalfi lol.
Guys can we just call it Mini Roma?
SAP ammo i dont know what i say but you haven't used it that much yet and AP is not the strong side of this ship

Nice breakdown of armor stats presentation
I heard a mountain lion talking in the background
should be using SAP more imo. Like the bow on Neptune
Or bb superstructures, kills their hp rly quick
So, basically using SAP only against DDs, better to use AP even against angled target? That's my feeling from this video...
Its the first time I really think you didn’t play a ship the right way imho. There were a lot of times you should’ve used SAP. Also you smoked up inside of the firing range bloom a lot.
There is a rumor that IFHE work with SAP and RM Venezia can penetrate 78mm!?
the shell arcs are like amercian CL arcs. These are easy to dodge from long range

that port looks freaking osome
this game is so beautiful sometime sad i play on very low setting 🤣
You mean, you have to decide between fps and quality? Yeah i know that probem.
@@estoyaqui5386 yup i get 60-70fps on very low setting with resolution to 1336p 😝
Lucky bastard, i get montebrocolli
broccoli*
i do believe.. you have missed played this ship and how to use that smoke, rushing with the smoke seem to work better.

typical bb captain in a cruiser=no Bueno mate.
SAP needs a major buff or add some other utlity
Wtf why so much AP?! Sap is so strong
I like it, quick and agile, the guns are good, but you'll pay for misplaying her. SAP...hard to say yet. More testing needed.
The long reload time really is quite the punishment
@@Bresonande Aye, it is. Don't miss. ; )
Mamma Mia!
Better they call this ship A-milfi 🤣
wargaming logic: SAP have higher alpha damage compared to AP
But i don't think sap can do citadel so it never do full damage
