Mainz was my first Premium CA, and it's still my favorite. Range, 1/4 pen, fast reload, flat arcs: You are firing in this ship non-stop, which makes it a lot of fun to play.
Hey Potato, just wanna say I looove this new series. Seeing realistic matches of these ships in action is very refreshing. Love the commentary. Well done. Keep it up!
The Chat @1:55 is wild. Just constant 'Fuck You' to each other lmaooo
I really like this type of video because you show normal matchs and you can show the differents approaches depending how the match is developing
it's the better One Take, indeed. But on the other hand: I prefer watching full games, not blow outs (looking at the Massa videos ^^)
@@GodOfWaaar yes, also if I want see full matches in all kind, I can go on Twitch...
I purchased the Mainz two years ago when I started playing this game. Such a good ship!
Just bought Mainz B yesterday and she's a blast to play. In fact, in one run of operations, I managed to hard carry my team with: 13 kills, 19 fires, and 200k dmg. Amazing ship.
Mainz is by far the best killer ship for operations, its' so much fun 🙂
@@somecallmetim42 lighthouse mainz is the best ship in ops, just wreck everything.
13 kills?
@@snafufubar In Operations (Newport), I hard carried my team with that amount of kills and also the team didn't even have BBs or CVs.
@@zlpatriot11 so bots then?
I LOVE my Mainz! Got her out of a German container a while back, slapped two nasty Krakens out of her in the first couple days.
Thanks for all of these videos. My game play has become more successful since watching you the last few weeks. Over everyone else. Your a lot easier to follow.
I love that ship in lighthouse build and double rudder
Munchen is also a great ship. It's like Mainz at tier 7 and actually has slightly better guns but less of them. Has amazing concealment and is fast.
with slightly better you mean worse right? munchen has worse shell ballistics, worse AP pen and worse AP damage. don't really get how you consider that "slightly better".
I love the chat at very beginning
Lol! I cracked myself with that battle chat and all the fucks, going on there! 2:15
Good ship. Like the Lazo as well. 9 sec reload bit bigger guns with more HE damage.
I got her for 1 year and played only around 50 random matches, example of her battle impact was I got avg 110k dmg per match but my w/r on her only ~33%. My total random w/r is 53% and I still struggled with her.
his ship is epic for operations!
The Mainz is the tier VIII Des Moines in terms of DPM. Instead of Superintendant, I use Improved AP for the ship. The Mainz has 38mm of armor pen capability so its great not to use IFHE. If you dont want top grade gunner, you can use DE and Consumable action time with the four points or DE and AA as its AA is pretty decent. I run top grade gunner myself. However, I dont like to move into brawling range. I prefer to keep that ship at much as close to max range as possible and burn targets down.
The HE is not very strong as a salvo, but because of the rate of fire Mainz still has the 4th highest HE DPM of T8. As for T9, only Neptune outguns her... 😮
She is strong due to 38mm of pen baseline and thats not even using IFHE. add DE and flags and you will have a fire starting/IFHE baked into the guns. As far as tier 9 is concerned, youre comparing apples to oranges. the neptune has improved AP and Mainz can be overmatched by anything at tier 9 or 10 (tier 8 battleships will overmatch the mainz)
I love my Mainz and I have good results in it but I don't bring it out often. Having no heal makes mistakes so incredibly punishing. Its a fun ship but not one for a relaxing game.
Last time I coop randoms with friend in Bayard. Was fun to burn t10 Vermont and gk with he spam if mainz and bayard, we hide between islands and two t10 burned to death
Great video, can you do cossack next please?
You played like a champ; you showed everyone that this game is really a thinking man's (woman) game; total map awareness, choosing your engagements, helping your team....just to die like that to a sub. Still, a great video.
Why does your game look so good? Also, to zoom out that far, is that a mod in modstation?
I play lighthouse Mainz. Not full lighthouse, I have the conceal mod but not on captain. Top grade gunner and Lutjens means monster dpm.
Trouble is when you get T10 ( which is often) you get slaughtered
My favourite spammer ship :)
Was actually quite happy to see the Jean Bart in the black friday 'deals', but then thought to myself, half of the games are just so frustrating with CV's and submarines, i think i might, after all these years quit this game and not invest in it anymore.
in every game ive been in so far ive been the cvs #1 target... even in aa bubbles. its so frustrating
I use mine for Operations only, full lighthouse build
How did you get that paint on the mainz?
I have the same map mod as you, but my smoke fire line only showing when in smoke never seems to work like it does for you. Any tips on the settings? Something I might be messing up?
I enjoy Mainz a lot.... she is a lot of fun to play. But I make bad decisions and usually don't survive past 5 or 6 minutes in her. Then in games where I do survive, its because I held back and under-performed.... not really helping the team. Its too bad I haven't "clicked" with her.... she is one of my favorite ships.
What i can't fathom with this game is the fact that hydo was solely invented to track submarines and yet in this Naval game it is utterly useless against them.
Mainz Coffee version.
I really want to like Mainz but lack of a heal at least one makes me skip it. Without that heal it just sub optimal it's great otherwise good for a challenge but lacking that heal makes it a bad choice
Playing against a well played Mainz in a bb is nasty.. downside of playing her is carriers like all light cruisers hard to stay in cover.
More DPM then hindy at t10. Yea Mainz is hilarious
on paper = ingame ... zero to none
This ship is broken in OPs - you can get 300 damage average in most ops, getting around 2k xp and 1.5mln credits with basic boosters. So... if you are finding yourself in need of credits, just got to the Mainz ATM.
I don't know what you're talking about with subs. They are perfectly balanced and add fun to the game. Wargaming says so. Oh, and they never, ever shotgun their torpedoes. I thought this might be an issue, but luckily Wargaming has assured us that it does not happen.
Can u do napoli please
Is it Mines or Maenz?
In German, typically with a two vowel combination (as long as the vowel pair has no umlauted vowel), the 2nd vowel is pronounced long. So Mines.
lol mini schanhost
More of a Mini Des Moine. This thing is a monster. I have the Mainz (not the black market)
I cant be recommended in 2024 atleast. i get focused fire so much in every game.
If only her armour was better. I find i push too much with her and she gets out of her depth. It's a bit of a jack of all trades for me.
I got lucky, i bought 6 containers(30$ worth) and got both alaska B and mainz B😁😁😁
Obligatory submarine complaint post.
That last game was a disappointment in two ways: your team didn't exist, and how did a Mahan of ALL ships get top place in a T9 game!?
No heal or repair kit ruins this ship
if
it had heal it would be totally OP, it's powerful enough as it is. Just learn to manoeuvre.
IF youre dying excessively in this ship then youre doing it wrong. This ship is not a brawling ship. Its gimmick is the 38MM pen capability which eliminates IFHE altogether. I would run DE to improve the fire chance on it and flags as well. This thing will burn targets to the ground. having 32mm of pen and being able to start fires is what makes this ship so good. plus it has Des moines level of DPM even more so when lutgens procs his special ability of improved reload.
So many years of camping videos, again and again, farming NUMBERS forgetting the fun, and using others as bait, all RUclipsrs are responsible for the camping playstyle of the game, so stop whining for other classes and put yours as in the first line showing us FUN games, not numbers.
My brother, The reason all high skill youtuber players do this is because you are not supposed to mindlessly push. You are supposed to push, when you SHOULD. Skill in this game is all about timing and knowing WHEN and WHERE to move. He camps when it would be foolish to push.
@@qmaximus5207 heh dying in the first 5min of the match is fun to some I guess.
He's showing you what not to do with a ship if he dies early. This ship is NOT a brawling ship at all even with its turtleback armor. The gimmick is the 32mm of pen the guns have which eliminates the ability of having to choose IFHE on the ship. No other tier 8 cruiser will have 38mm of pen baseline. you need to use this ship as a long range gun fighter so that means playing from cover or maneuvering in open waters. The guns are accurate for sure. be mindful that this ship will be overmatched by almost all tier VIII battleships and above. I have the original Mainz in my port and the ship is so fun to play with and disgusting all in one. Mainz for those that dont know, has Des Moines/Salem levels of DPM. I call her the German Des Moines for that reason. Adding Lutjens as the commander and its a wrap
this is hands down the worst most useless ship I have ever bought ...
