    Mainz has 'only' 204K HE DPM... but that's not nearly the whole story (and that still makes it 5th in tier out of 44). It has increased penetration, negating the need for IFHE, and thereby retaining its decent fire chance. Mainz also has great range and the best shell velocity, making her the best DD killer at T8. I would argue that Mainz is the best HE spammer in T8 as well for that reason. Add to that a 6km hydro and 4x6 torps... Total menace.
    My only real gripe with Mainz is that somehow she catches fire a LOT.

    I love the Mainz, I got it when it first came out and it´s been my go to CA in Tier VIII ever since. That 17 km range is really nice, I can´t tell you how many BBs I´ve burned down with it. I got really lucky and got the Mainz B from one of the Black Friday crates from the Battle Pass, so I´m quite happy. For those that don´t have it, I highly recommend it. I call it the ¨baby Hindenhurg.¨

    I adore this ship. As a cruiser main, she is everything that a cruiser is supposed to be. DPM machine that will explode if you sneeze at it. The lack of heal sucks, but because of the DPM, it kind of needs to be balanced.
    ETA: Inside 12km, her AP is so good.

    Yes, CV spotting socks for everyone. But its especially true for ships that are dependent on stealth to play well - light CAs and DDs. I had a T10 Mogami game yesterday & the CV was on my flank. I didn't have fun

    • @j_taylor
      @j_taylor 3 дня назад

      Light cruisers sometimes have better AA than heavy cruisers.
      For example, Shimanto has stronger AA than Mogami.
      As a DD main, I agree that it can be frustrating to get out-spotted. For me, radar is more of a counter than planes.

      @eliareichardt7007 3 дня назад

      @@j_taylor I'm a lot more ok with radar though cause at least that feels like it's supposed to be a counter, and you can play around it a lot easier. There's basically no way to avoid getting focused by a CV if that's what they want to do, so it feels like it's more out of your control.

    They already have the ships to create the cl line. All premiums, but only one missing is a 9 I think. Hindy is the natural 10 to this theoretical line too. Always felt it's a wierd shift from hipper-roon, to the hindy. Give wg another crack at a German cruiser to swap trees w hindy too.

    IMO the BEST T8 CA, better armor is better than the Bayard, but it's reload is unbelievable. Better range than Cleveland or Bayard. Can't blame the CV for NOT going after the NC; that things shreds planes at tier.

    • @giantdwarfulf
      @giantdwarfulf 3 дня назад +1

      Bayard is imo just as good, if not better, because it has much better manoeuvrability which makes it so much easier to dodge incoming shots. The range is only slightly shorter but the reload booster in combination with higher HE alpha makes it much stronger if you catch a DD. Still Mainz is also a great ship.

    • @sameerkharade7750
      @sameerkharade7750 3 дня назад +1

      Same! I like Bayard too and I also think that it might be better than Mainz mostly due to better conceal, better handling, better speed and of course MBRB. I've been playing it in ranked and my WR is looking good. Not sure about the AA part though.

    @kenzovermandel9590 3 дня назад

    I find that if you aim your guns on any ship by following the tip of the nose i always hit and barely get weird salvos. Of course if your dispersion is bad thats not something you can account for. But just imagine the line you see on the minimapp coming from their nose in the water and lead accordingly to just following where that line is going. Thats how i aim with light cruisers and battleships and get a lot of succes with it. Try it in a game and see for yourself ;). Might be difficult imagining the line while following where the nose goes towards but its worth the try no?

    22:17 That effect is called „Reversion to the Mean“. You’ll complain more when there are less fires than usual. Since fires appear with equal probability with every hit, you will statistically have more fires after you complained than before. Still, your complaints do nothing.

  • @Stephen__White
    @Stephen__White 3 дня назад +1

    4:10 Right there you answer your own question. The BB mains would complain to much about a cruiser line that is actually a threat to them. I mean just think back to how much people complained when the Pan-Asian CLs were announced, that they would "ruin top tier" and would be the most overpowered things to ever overpower. All because they had rapid fire guns. The cries of "won't someone think of the poor BB mains!" were loud and it lead to a lot of those ships getting fairly heavily nerfed in testing, and slowly rebuffed over time.
    The Pan-American CLs had HE at one point, with the same gimmick that Jacksonville gets with a slower than normal reload, and again the crying from BB mains caused Wargaming to remove the HE entirely, and replace the gimmick with one that honestly is a lot worse, while not buffing the reload rate of the ships to compensate for having lost the reason for their slower reload. Leading to those cruisers not really doing a whole lot.
    I'd LOVE to see a German CL line with 150mm guns and good rate of fire, but knowing this community, even if Wargaming only gave the T10 9 guns and a 5 second reload, they would complain to the highest heavens that it would be the most overpowered thing to ever overpower until Wargaming nerfed the ever living shit out of it.
