I’ve never thought of Siegfried as being super competitive, but she is unique and that makes her worth collecting. Also I’ve started using Riegerwald. His penetration boost seems to make her penetrate basically everything short of angled Battleships.
Oh I got Siegfried in a crate before Christmas and I can say she is my fav their 7 ship! My fav tactic is doing a battleship drive by and torpedoing the crap out of them! Even better is when you can get set up to drive by two of them one on either side of your ship and taking out both of them! Yes the bow is squishy but she can shrugg off a lot of damage too if the rng god is on your side!
8:15 She wasn't, she was apart of Hitler and the Kriegsmarine's Plan Z naval project. To build a navy to match the Royal Navy, needless to say Germany was never gonna come close, didnt have nearly enough resources to do so. Especially once the ground war with the Soviets got going. EDIT: Honestly, any of the higher tier german ships past like Bismark, Tirpitz, Shcharnhorst, Hipper, etc were apart of that project.
BISMARCK NOT BISMARK. Hitler's Ship's Were & Are Male's Not Females. The PLAN Z Was For The BATTLESHIPS. The PLAN O Was For The CRUISERS. My Great GrandFather's Told Me EveryThing What Hitler Wanted & What The Plans Were 😃
really well played, strategically foresighted, even watching is fun, with the Siegfried you would like to have 3 inspirations or even 4. but at some point they will have to touch this ship
Using 16/4 reigerwald as commander and 16/2 yamamoto as inspiration, you can get +21.4% ap pen multiplier. That means having an AP pen value of a 461.3mm cannon on the seigfried!
I'd love to see a "what went wrong" video. Its actually really helpful sometimes to see what not to do in a game almost even more so as seeing what to do.
Amazing vid spartan like usual! Seigfried is an amazing ship both before and after its buff, definitely an hidden gem, I would definitely run a full ap build with riegerwald and arthas personally
As a (former) Cruiser Main, German Cruisers are some of the best in the game. Especially if you build in for AP. Rigerwald is my favorite German Cruiser Commander and I typically spec in for AP/accuracy. Sometimes I even forget I have HE. Some of the most fun times are to lay in wait for an enemy cruiser or BB to come around a corner and just punish a broadside with multiple citadels. There is something to like on most cruiser lines but you almost cannot go wrong with almost any US or German Cruisers for AP punishment.
Would be nice if it had its intended cruiser dispersion and not battlecruiser dispersion, without the ship is overall heavily outclassed by ships like constellation, hawke etc
Definitely want to see a what went wrong video it helps me learn better and are always greatly appreciated! Great video as always man and boy do I live the seigfried
Hyde is great on Siegfried I use him on Agir as well. When you get the health buff of his base trait then take porcupine, Marksmanship, MM, and FFWF thats one devious build when you have him maxed out.
KMS Siegfried, together with her Tier 8 sister ship, KMS Ägir, are two of the planned O-class battlecruisers developed in Germany in 1937. As a result of Germany studying the buildup of ships from Britain and France, the Oberkommando der Marine (OKM) directed its focus to reinforce their navy with new ships. They were intended to be a further development of the Deutschland-class "pocket battleships," but faster and equipped with a larger gun caliber. These ships were primarily designed to operate against convoys, which would have forced Britain and its allies to use their capital ships to protect them. The Germans believed that this outcome would critically dissipate the Royal Navy's striking capability, which also means more fuel consumption and more convoy reinforcement assignments for the Royal Navy capital ships. The efforts of the German engineers resulted in the project of a battlecruiser nicknamed the "O-class," which counted 380 mm main guns installed on three dual-mounted turrets and a maximum speed of 34 knots as its primary advantages. The project was finalized by September 1939, but the cruisers were never actually built due to lack of resources and other priorities in shipbuilding construction. Siegfried is named after Sigurd was the son of Sigmund, a great and wise king. King Sigmund and another King, Lyngvi, had both pursued a young, beautiful princess named Hjordis, daughter of King Eylimi. In the end, Hjordis chose Sigmund over Lyngvi despite his advanced age, because of his age and renown. Lyngvi, infuriated, mustered an army and lay siege to Sigmund and his lands. Eventually Sigmund fell, but Hjordis was already pregnant, and she found refuge with King Alf, leader of a band of Vikings who had been nearby when Sigmund fell. He was the king slayed the dragon Fafnir, which allowed him to be christened as a great hero of Germanic myth, a member of the eponymous family of the Saga of the Volsungs, and (as Siegfried) one of the stars of Richard Wagner’s famous Ring Cycle.
Also, fun fact, my mom watched a lot of British comedies in the 80's and I came within a gnat's butt hair being named the same as this ship. If she hadn't gotten a dog before I came along I'm pretty sure I would have been stuffed in a toilet every day after school with a name like that.
I'm comforted that I chose the same commander set up for this girl before I watched this post.....Spartan's tips and play style is clearly rubbing off lol
Now I'm stuck between Sieg and Georgia. I got BA Tirpitz yesterday, and I do pretty well in it. 75% WR, nearly 1400 Avg XP, 80K Avg Dmg in 16 matches. Secondary builds are actually really fun. It's nice actually being able to hit my target with the main battery guns also. God knows you can't really do that with a secondary build on Bismarck. That's why I had some hesitation.
@@KMSDerpitz what are you talking about Georgia is super squishy for a BB. Seigfried is not squish for a cruiser. She is squishy in relation to a BB. Georgia is for flanking and sniping. Seigfried is unique because she can sorta of do everything.
@@hunter7003 To be fair I have no experience with either ship nor have I really looked at armor schemes. I've just heard Georgia is good I didn't know how it was good. I just assumed it was tanky because it was a battleship. Thanks for the correction. It actually helped me make up my mind. Sieg is the choice.
I‘m definitely picking her up. Good looking sleek ship. Also love the pronunciation of Gerät at the AA stats. xD Basically translates to device into English
It’s funny I finally get my hands on a pay premium BB, ( WV ) thanks to the generous gift of a 70% off coupon and suddenly I can hold my own, hold and push flanks and win more then I lose. I actually have great shell grouping, consistency in RNG and some decent range. Funny what a pay ship can do for your game and mindset. Now I’ll actually be a let to earn enough to upgrade more than one ship at a time and expand my fleet. This game doesn’t force you to pay anything, but if you don’t wanna go insane you definitely have to pony up.
Good video Spartan as always, managed to get this ship last year & love it. By the way I’m doing my maiden stream tonight at 1800 est on legends, expanding hopefully the Spartan Army reach😉 Have a good evening
Got Siegfried months before the update and I couldn't understand why alot of people despise it. It does have its ups and down but I kinda like it when people are not paying attention to me 🙃
She caught my eye when she went in the store but then I got Tirpitz B from a crate, and with a ship like Azuma in my port, I don't think I will get her with drachmas. Will probably go for Georgia but still great insight video.
you didn't miss much. when she came out every Yamato on the other team would aim for you the second your spotted. its probably in a better position now but there's still the Marashi. but it's the German New Orleans.
I’m not gonna lie spartan I got back into this game again cause of your videos I always wait for a new post every day ☺️ but anyways keep up the good work
I will be getting it with the event currency. Ive already got the others and i think i will give a few things a try. Im wondering if alidad from hyde with von essen will do anything for it or if i will just build accuracy
I am thinking of using my Drachmas to buy Georgia or Siegfried. Which one would you recommend? I really like playing Heavy Cruisers but I have heard that Siegfried’s guns are not very accurate and are inconsistent.
Got this from a crate just before Christmas I believe and now its one of my favorite tier 7 ships Edit: forgot to ask what happened in that match you said went horribly or smth
So I have Georgia now... would u suggest Siegfried over Belfast 43. I'll have 6500 Drachmas in the next few days. Trying to figure which 6500 Drachmas ship to get next.
It's finally hereeee!!! The hype is real! In all seriousness, best video since Brest and Duncan. Hopefully you play some more with it and get a bang of a game to show. I'm down to watch any video it's in. I almost quit the game when I missed this ship. Having it now, it's all I ever wanted it to be. Augustin Reigerwald for commander with an accuracy build is insane.
@@SpartanElite43 his base trait is 3% reload 3% AP damage. He runs beyond range, kracken rounds (5% cruiser speed 10% AP pen), punch through, fixated, and your choice of fully packed or refill station.
@@SpartanElite43 AL Graff Spee base trait 6% extra healing, beyond range, ghost (8% detection, 20% air detection), punch through, fixated, and fully packed or refill station.
@@AnthonyPorter-is9ht honestly I don't know much about the AL GS commander but muller or riegerwald would probably be good. Use HE mostly but don't be afraid to switch to AP if given a good angle it'll surprise you
Not going to lie bro your secondary build for Colombo is pure fire bro it’s my best legendary tier ship I wanna say thank you for that and thank you for all of your advice
Everyone says it has bad armor but regardless of what the armor viewer says I'm convinced this thing has Yamato turret face armor for a belt. I don't know what it is about it but I was getting bounces and shatters with 16in american AP at point blank range against this thing broadside or at the slightest angle. It shouldn't happen but it did. I can't explain it other than the guy in was playing terribly the whole match so I guess rnjesus was at his helm?
@@SpartanElite43 Next time. I'm just saying it just made no sense to me that I was bouncing and shattering N. Carolina guns off this thing's broadside at 3 km. And not just once but like 4 salvos. It was definitely a "wtf?" moment.
this cruiser killer aint doing nuthin in fleet cup lol, cant ]kill the american premiums like ce versions.......its sad. and so ething causes the shells to be italian shitguns while running full accuracy.....annoying....
Thank you to whoever hooked me up with a membership for the month! Bless you!

I can imagine if these ships were built, I guess they would be a huge threat to the Allied forces.

Got to agree Germany ships just look beautiful and how you imagine it to be
I’ve got to say that zieten is the ugliest imo.
Love the vid. Appreciate you telling us how to counter these ships as well. Super helpful
Siegfried is the only cruiser that can overmatch a battleship at its tier
Technically it doesn't overmatch battleships at its tier but definitely any battleships with 26mm or less it can
Im Pretty sure it overmatches the hawke
@@SpartanElite43 with 16% additional penetration from Riegerwald wouldn't that be 30.16mm?
Pen multipliers affect the ability to pen more armor thickness, but unfortunately does not affect the overmatch formula
Azuma 310mm left the chat

@mc24gamer19 Georgia fits my playstyle best. I don't do too well in squishy ships. I'm aggressive and tend to bait damage away from my cruisers.
