Must have nerfed the crap out of it. No speed, no guns, crap torps and a jinx to my teammates. Every match is over in less than 5min. Loved this ship on PC.
This might be one of my new favs. Been having a blast with it. I have the reload at like 2.2 or something right now its crazy. Clutched a game in it last night with 2 seconds left lmao
@@lordredlead2336 Actually they aren't. The tier 5 and 6 have slower turret traverse, slower reloads and are missing a gun compared to the original line. They're alternate torp boats and always have been except they're worse torp boats.
@@nuke2099 idk what cammander ur using lmao but the tier 5 and 6 have better reloads 8 and 5 the main line has a constant 10 seconds to 8 in tier 7 and the turret traverse gets way better starting tier 6 so idk what u are smoking or what cammander u use that gives u this results and this is without cammanders
@@lordredlead2336 Um the Fubuki has one more gun (and torp launcher) than the Hatsu and a faster reload and turret traverse along with better gun angles. And the tier 6 on the new line is also missing a gun with worse turret traverse and reload and missing a torp launcher compared to the Akasuki. I'm using the same commander for both (Tanaka) because both lines are torp boats apart from the Akazuki.
I got in a game with chiligames17, he was akizuki i was roma. He had 4 kills and pretty much caused havoc everywhere he went. Burning ships as he went. I've been on the receiving end of this ship while in the tirpitz. I have no clue how, but I got the receiving end of rolling fires even when I waited to DC until had atleast 2 or 3.
Akizuki is the next T7 on my wishlist. Also, you are absolutely correct in saying that you cannot abandon your flank. I see randoms do that all the time and it is infuriating when they are on my team.
@Cipheiz Yeah, there are certain spawns that are hard to play (the eastern side of Land of Fire, for example), but abandoning your flank is far worse. It gives the enemy a free capture point/leaves your base vulnerable, as well as exposing yourself to crossfires. Unfortunately, many randoms aren't smart enough to comprehend this and get themselves killed by doing something stupid over and over and over again. You will also see some people get greedy by trying to farm a bit of extra damage and throw the game as a result. As for concealment, its really only necessary for your destroyers. Battleships are all about angling thier armor, and cruisers need good positioning.
@Cipheiz Yeah I once had a guy in a Wichita (I was in a Yudachi) spamming the "I Need Support" command at me when we spawned on the NE flank of Sleeping Giant in Domination. Unfortunately, literally the ENTIRE team was dogpiling in that one area, so I started heading to B to at least try and get more map coverage when the Wichita D-Bag gets angry when he sees what I'm doing and starts shooting me. Unfortunately for him, he gave his location away and the enemy team (which was mostly battleships) opened up on him almost immediately and he was dead within seconds. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard. We lost within 5 minutes (with me being the last ship alive, naturally), but watching that stupid asshat getting shat on was very satisfying.
Atago is a fine ship with a concealment build like mine! It can go undetected before it reloads the guns! And it can just torp without getting spotted! Its a dangerous sneak attack Cruiser!
With reload that fast you don't really need a higher fire chance. Nice build Spartan. Oh, and when a DD pushes it is the cruisers job to follow and give support. Salutations to the Atago skipper!
Nice I love this ship also will you check out that teaser trailer of carriers it really shows a lot and I really want you to go do a deep dive analysis even though I already know what I'm seeing by the way there's a lot of information on the minimap that a lot of people glossed over (such as the big legendary skill ring)
On a remark about the slow speed, if she was built to be an antiaircraft boat she didn’t have to be super fast. She just needed to be fast enough to provide a proper AA screening for the IJN fleet. Of course that doesn’t really make it as effective in WoWsL but that’s just it in a historical perspective.
HE penetration equation, gun bore diameter/6= penetration in mm, so for the akizuki 100/6=16.6 mm of he pen. Soviet dds 130/6=22.6mm of pen. Also works on cruisers and secondaries on bbs, although on german cruisers and bbs at least on pc had a better he pen so gun/4.
I need to get some captain development done first but I'm thinking of trying Kurita with Auboyneau and Mortar to get the best out of Evil Sparks. Minimise that damage reduction.
This ship deserves a replay Spartan with Carriers. The AA is very well against them. First game i played against a carrier I had 35 planes shot down XD
Cheers for the film. Aki is fun - it is a huge distraction for red players so that your team can focus on their shots - it would be nice to have the kills but wins are good too. For overall damage, credit and xp the Akatsuki is better and the Asashio is best, if you are lucky enough to have one but for Daka daka the Aki is a blast
I mean hell I encounter any tier 7 dd pointed straight at or away and the HE shatters so I just make do by turning it into a dam chaingun to compensate for damage drop
I'm a bit puzzled, where do u get paint to continue combining camouflage paint skins? There doesn't seem to be any directly from the store or from any known crates...
the paint comes from breaking down camos that you don't want they give paint when you break them down. I have a video on making permanent camos if you are interested ruclips.net/video/-1VbYd5Cqhs/видео.html
@@SpartanElite43 thanks, that helps. However, before WG used this camo rework, it felt somewhat easier to deal with buying legendary skins directly from the store instead of doing it yourself through paint. Just saying...
@Cipheiz I also bought the Ognevoi with "Lazarus" premium skin, plus all 3 commanders and a few odds and ends. I was also buying as much camo skins as my tabs would allow...
@Cipheiz the Halloween event gave free 16 point commanders at full legendary skills and only for that event, with everyone on a level plain field, besides the ships and commanders used, not sure how anyone was at a disadvantage other than not being able to play enough. I'll admit, the grind was tough, but if it meant I can get a free destroyer with wicked statistics, I'm all for it.
@Cipheiz I understand.... I've been out-spotted myself many times and I've out-spotted them too, on occasion. I only have 13 point destroyer commander at 1 legendary skill (soon to be lv. 2 legendary) and I'm trying to upgrade my polish destroyer captain "Jersey". However my main focus is on Japanese cruiser captains and later on Japanese destroyer captains. I've been short on some camo skins, I'm in desperate need of paint. Thanks to spartan, I can start looking into more paint.
yo that Atago stole your kill. when people still my kill, I feel useless to the team, so in my head I say they are guilty, oh guilty, and sometimes I even cry.
12:58 It's less about fortune and more of a mistake on your part. If you are launching two salvos of torps with a long interval, and you are playing on high tiers, you expect people to slow down and turn.
imo +2% fire chance with the captain , giving up reload time -8% on 2.6sec reload is absolutely worth. in a full match with like 500 hits, it gives you like 5 fires more i'd say. still room to improve with better aim.. 🙃
This thing is nasty. Im currently looking for a good gun boat destroyer. Almost to the Z but may just start grinding this as I don't have the coin to buy a T7. Which destroyer do you think is the best gunboat?
@@SpartanElite43 fair enough still have plenty of salt I can go back and listen to hope you're looking after yourself and hello once again from Australia Brisbane
Use Togo not the cruiser comms, slot 1 burn it down, slot 2 look at me now, slot 3 velocious, slot 4 Reaching out, Leg perk Fully packed or unstoppable.
This is just me, but if I had the option to get to the Gascone, I would buy the Alabama instead. The Atlanta is a decent cruiser you just have to be really careful in it.
Togo (IJN Dewey) is better than Kurita. The fire chance he gives makes this ship so fun when you constantly fire all the guns off. So you're incorrect when you say it isn't a fire starter. You're simply using the wrong commander.
I unlocked the IOWA 2 days ago now i am starting a cruiser line . Which one is the best , i started to grind japanese cruisers am i doing okay . Whats the best cruiser line ? : )
@@britanica1298 Lol. How can you deface Iowa like that? Rust on Iowa is like spamming HE from her. Stars & Stripes or Shadow perma. This isn't a debate!
Double concealment isn’t very viable on akizuki. Why ? Because there are other dds with better concealment and can outrun and turn faster then you. Biggest defender ? Consumables and dpm. Those are the key to this ship. Also fire chance is not a direct indicator of fpm which is great on this ship. Spec her as a dd cruiser and you will squeeze out her max dpm almost every battle.
You heard him mention the best he got was 4 fires with several hundred hits. I've started more fires without trying. HE spam is annoying but part of the game. That's why I take perks and modules that help stop fires.
I also like AP, but I couldn't call myself elite in any part of this game. I do ok with AP in DDs, many cruisers think they are safe broadside on after torpedoes are gone.
I love British CLs. They are just overgrown DDs. That ripple fire torpedo stuff is awesome. And sometimes not having to worry about what ammo you have loaded can make it easy.
The British tend to have good HE, especially in the BBs. The CAs are all AP cruisers. The Germans have decent armor and are meant specifically for brawling in their BB line.
American DDs are good gunboats, american CLs, CAs, and BBs have good AP. Japanese have good torps and HE all around. Britain DDs have a lot of smokes, British CLs and DDs have tube by tube and CLs have good AP, british BBs have good HE. Germany DDs have a lot of health, German CAs have good HE and Armor and torpedoes, German BB are good brawlers with good secondaries.
So many shatters if you would have used that perk you would have cut that by more than half. People who says its worthless don't understand how it works.
It stacks up. Your dishing out that damage with less shatters and more hits. If you actually spec'd for reload of the main guns it well than makes up for it.
@@simpinainteasy1916 It honestly does not stop the shatters trust me I tried it. It still shatters just as much you are not getting extra penetration using the perk. I am not the only person to say this either. There are players that are much better than I that have come to the same conclusion.
Well they explained it in the past notes that these are still Japanese they still use torpedoes but they can use their guns unlike the main line to me these are definitely better to the main line because instead of instantly dying in a knife fight you actually have a fighting chance so I love this alternative line best way to describe it is a very balanced line able to use torques and guns effectively
Outside of the mutsuki the main guns on the torp line are actually quite good people just don't use them enough. For me it's the traverse speed and firing angles that are lacking. The torp boats are far better in that regard.
Something that hurts my heart dearly is seeing a line that has the games best AP shooting HE......in a Colorado of all ships....406mm 45cal guns and using HE? I can't tell how many times I've devstriked DD's with AP.....Did it last night in my California. Thought he could suicide torp me but as soon as he gave me that angle. 'Better luck next time, sunshine. Go back to port.'
I know the feeling it hurts to see any American BB shooting HE at anything that isn't a DD and personally I rarely load HE for DDs but at least i can understand the decision making.
Listen !... I don't get angry almost on nothing in the game .,... If I get killed because of another dudes stupid mistake or a mistake of my own , cool is just a game let's just play the next round ...but that is the only thing that makes me almost throw the controller through the wall ... Been at the end of a hurricane of fire and not being able to shoot back !! 😡😡😂😂
@@Braindamagedpotato akizuki dumpsters every dd on it's tier in 1vs1 fights due to high hp and the best dpm of all dd's combined with good consealment it's very difficult to fight this dd also don't forget the torp reload which can catch the enemy dd's off guard
@@IDontKnow-jg1yb torps are alnost useless in dd 1v1 , sure if you are stupid you will get devestating striked , concealment is also useless once you fire your guns . Le fantastique can pop its reload booster so the dps goes up depending on your commander and inspirations Health is only good if you get hit a lot , and the Fletcher if used properly , it can avoid any incoming shells and make it hard for the enemy to dodge those 2.2 sec salvos

Hey spartan. Hope the new path is working out well. Im kinda concerned that you were getting more views before you quit your job.
Who else thought is was the other tier 6 lol
Something that hurts my heart dearly is seeing a line that has the games best AP shooting HE......in a Colorado of all ships....406mm 45cal guns and using HE? I can't tell how many times I've devstriked DD's with AP.....Did it last night in my California. Thought he could suicide torp me but as soon as he gave me that angle. 'Better luck next time, sunshine. Go back to port.'
I know the feeling it hurts to see any American BB shooting HE at anything that isn't a DD and personally I rarely load HE for DDs but at least i can understand the decision making.
Listen !... I don't get angry almost on nothing in the game .,... If I get killed because of another dudes stupid mistake or a mistake of my own , cool is just a game let's just play the next round ...but that is the only thing that makes me almost throw the controller through the wall ... Been at the end of a hurricane of fire and not being able to shoot back !! 😡😡😂😂
Yeah it is very annoying we've all been there.
I don't do good what so ever on this ship.
Akizuki is the best gunboat DD.
Change my mind
Le Fantastique , Fletcher , Kidd , Benson , Vanquelin , Blaskaviwa, Benham ,
@@Braindamagedpotato lmao
Hard to beat Fletcher and Mordoff.
@@Braindamagedpotato akizuki dumpsters every dd on it's tier in 1vs1 fights due to high hp and the best dpm of all dd's combined with good consealment it's very difficult to fight this dd also don't forget the torp reload which can catch the enemy dd's off guard
@@IDontKnow-jg1yb torps are alnost useless in dd 1v1 , sure if you are stupid you will get devestating striked , concealment is also useless once you fire your guns .
Le fantastique can pop its reload booster so the dps goes up depending on your commander and inspirations
Health is only good if you get hit a lot , and the Fletcher if used properly , it can avoid any incoming shells and make it hard for the enemy to dodge those 2.2 sec salvos
You’re a bad torpedoes player.
