  • A look at the campaign reward for March/April 2024. Unfortunately, I don't think it's a very good reward, because the ship is, at best, mediocre.

    oddly enough legends iwami kept its 15km torps, yet karl gets its torp range completely mangled. makes perfect sense wg

    • @Xarkun
      @Xarkun  4 месяца назад +6

      Yep. I don’t understand it. The ability to stealth torp is kind of the core design philosophy of this ship on PC, so… I don’t know. It was just lost in translation.

    Viribus Unitas is the T4 battleship. I play it sometimes for the weekly premium supplies. I'll be getting the Karl but hopefully we'll get more commander options and ships for this line. Nice double strike👍

      I hope they release a new commander that’s better suited for this ship. That would probably go a long way.

    I don't disagree that its not that good. Its tough to play. This ship is at home trying to bully cruisers and DDs. sonar is nice to have for anti smoke work.
    Helfirch Geparette and Fraser. fully packed. Movement speed is about the only worthwhile stat to invest in.
    Helfrich maxed out is 3% and also gets a perk for 5%
    Fraser is 3%
    Geparette is about 5% speed
    Battle booster is another 3%
    good luck out there!

    Sounds like we both agreed on this one. I waited all week, playing her more and more to try and find the silver lining. But with the nerfed torpedoes and concealment, its just worse than Prinz Rupperecht...even though the stats are strong! Mid HP, decent armor, good AA DPS, cool torps, decent DPM....it doesnt perform

      Yeah. It’s a tragic disappointment, I think. Others say it’s great, but I don’t see it. Maybe one day they’ll buff it.

    With respect...I have to say I love the ship...she is a Tier 8 Odin...good armor, decent speed, great torps...meh guns...but the reload speed makes up for it...been running her as a kinda-brawler...she will not get the damage or carry a game...but the fun factor, especially when you are in close quarters makes it worthwhile...fire lots o' HE, enjoy some good stealth..I have mine at 12km concealment too with Kondo...very enjoyable ship..thanks for the great review

    Interesting ship, WG strikes again, and I agree it is kinda okayish. Do you think the Zao is a better pick than the des moines? Zao is pretty pricey.

    • @Xarkun
      @Xarkun  4 месяца назад +4

      Better how? Because Des Moines has really good radar, for example. So it is much better in terms of utility. Zao’s whole deal is it just has a lot of accurate HE and it’s a damage dealing kiting cruiser, whereas Des Moines is more an island hugging cruiser that uses radar to keep DDs away from objectives. I don’t think they’re directly comparable because of that. So I would say get both eventually, but Des Moines might be the way to go first if what you’re after is an overall really strong cruiser.

    Another swing and miss from wargaming. It’s like they do not want too much variation between ships.
    And being able to shoot past caps upon spawning in makes it feel like you’re in a shooting gallery.

    • @Xarkun
      @Xarkun  4 месяца назад +2

      I just don’t know what their design philosophy for this ship even was in development. They’re taking it from PC where it has the unique gimmick of being a very stealthy battleship that can stealth torpedo. And yet they put it in Legends with stats that make that impossible, which I think ruins the whole identity of the ship and results it being mediocre.

    @blmareterrorists 4 месяца назад

    I find it pretty annoying when people look at the caliber of the main battery and see the 305s, and automatically say it's bad or mediocre. If you look to say it doesn't citadel bbs, then i feel you're not playing it right. Then you'll be disappointed every time. When i have low caliber guns, i just shoot superstructure and focus more on cruisers and dds. But that's just my way of thinking. Then you could possibly sling HE like with the Anhalt

    • @Xarkun
      @Xarkun  4 месяца назад +2

      I think you might’ve missed the part where I said I’ve tried building it three ways from Sunday in terms of the main guns, and the issue is their complete lack of accuracy. Not their size. Same issue with the secondaries. The guns are just not good.
