I got Lazo in a supercontainer and I had no idea what she was, so I didn't play her much. Much later I found out about the guns/spotter combo, and once you understand it, she's very dangerous. And a lot of fun.
Lazo is my first coal ship, and most likely my first t7 ship. Even back then when I didn't know how to play, Lazo helped me farm ridiculous amounts of credits. You just sit back and watch people burn to death.
I am unsure whether I understood him 100%, but he is most likely speaking about the importance of having fire prevention which is the four point captain skill for Iowa. That Iowa was apparently not running fire prevention, IF I understood PQ correctly.
i thought it was more about how taking fire prevention didnt do much for the iowa getting lit on fire because it doesnt matter that you can have a max of 3 fires instead of 4 when you get set one fire once
Made up numbers for ease of calculations, but the logic is as follows: Scenario 1, reduced duration: Fires tick for 100 per second for 100 seconds, 10,000 total. Duration reduction changes that to 100 per second for 80 seconds, 8,000 total. However it is all moot if two seconds after the fire goes out that spot gets relit, and we've all had that happen, pretty often, making the total damage over those 100 seconds 9,800. Scenario 2, reduced damage: Fires tick for 100 per second for 100 seconds, 10,000 total. Damage per tick reduction changes that to 80 per second for 100 seconds, 8,000 total. Now that spot cannot be relit in the 82nd second and the damage after 100 seconds remains 8,000.
Hey Pq love the videos but is the 40 extra dollars really worth it for the alaska over the congress I have a coupon which makes the congress cost 8,500 gold.
Remember to check these ships to see if they are available for coal. Lazo is and she is a bargain in coal. Spending money on Black Friday ships only make sense if they can't be had for coal or other resources.
i used to play my lazo a lot before i got some of the tier 10 prems like the smolensk, and salem. it is great for doing missions in lower tiers and the low coal cost makes it a very good buy. just don't show your side....
I hope WG at least paid you well for making almost exclusively Black Friday ads the last weeks. Most or all of these ships have normal counterparts, the Lazo is even available for coal.
Atlanta is so easy to understand. Es a mortar boat/flamethrower/short range radar-anti-dd er. Find an island, hide, go to town over the island on less armored opponents and burn the crap out of everything. If you find a dd in medium and especially short range (think it’s radar range), then OBLITERATE it. Build into the flak.
Atlanta AA isn't worth it as you'll be getting slapped by tier 8s and it doesn't do enough damage at long AA range to stop strikes, if CV player has hands... The gun range is too low in the modern day as you'll be up tiered and the redesigned maps don't have islands good for Atlanta. There are new DD lines that obliterate Atlanta if it runs into t8/9. It's super niche nowadays, not the worst ship - but you depend on all stars aligning for a good game.
@@lucidnonsense942 or you play it as it always has been - a no-armor, no-health, mortar boat that has a radar which will fill find the dd sitting in concealment near you, then you slap the ever-lovin’ bejeezus out of it with 7 pair of 5”/38s. Plus, AA shouldn’t be able to absolutely stomp air strikes lest there be no point to them. And you find an island and start mortar-flamethrowering where you don’t get hit to begin with-- that’s how you ‘Lanta. She’s still one of my favorite ships in any situation that decent cover can be had.

Lazo, Iwami, and Black are available for coal, so you don’t have to buy them with real money. Lazo is only 68k coal.
Nice. Thanks for the info. Probably gonna buy it when i get back to playing.
@@Lupus_Indomitus there are better coalships, far more worth the coal.
@@Lupus_Indomitus Enjoy when you get it. My coal choices haven't yet favored this boat, but I hope that you do have FUN!
My first choice for coal 😊 Yes im noob and just started to play this excellent game like 1 month 🎉
@@FMeyer-zg5mgwhat are your coal ship picks?

Nice video, I just pulled this ship in a Christmas Box and fell in love with how easy it was to melt DDs.
Amazing ship, the epitome of sniping firestarter, very underated and i love it to bits, smokeless baby smolensk.
I got the Lazo for coal a couple years ago. It can be a fun ship but definitely keep your distance. A nice tier 7 premium ship. o7 PQ.
I managed to pick up the regular version of this thing a few months ago for like 60k coal. I love it.
Just p/u Lazo after watching this. Was not disappointed. btw for coal. Also p/u Napoli w/coal. Thanks for the reviews!.

When you are targeting a ship, how do you rotate your view over the ship? I see you doing that and would like to do the same.
This thing is amazing versus the Schors just because it's faster and has way way better turret angles. It's just such a joy to play.
Shchors is faster and has better manoeuvrability. The angles is the differentiating factor.
Lazo is also a coal ship
Sold, can't wait to get it!
You could get the laziest or the tech line schors. They are almost identical.
Can you elaborate on what you mean by having fire damage reduction instead of time and how that would have saved the Iowa? 8:32

@@Neneset Thank you, it makes more sense now.
when does the black friday stuff go live?
Love my lazo. Easily my favorite t7.

Thank you so much 🍒😃
When do these ships come out?
Usually right around the Thanksgiving holiday/Black Friday
The normal version of the Lazo is available anytime for coal. (Stats are the same but you don't get the black camo)

Lazo is a fun ship.
IFHE is only worth on T7 whenever it's rank or brawling, since you only face T7 ships.
Good Day Sir
But Colorado is slow, so you could hit it at 19-20+km range, Iowa at 30knots far harder to hit.
mid tier is fun tier
The best
Lazo has quite the hp for a light cruiser at that tier. Almost equal to pre-buff Zao.
Like the Irian or the Mainz more than the Lazo.
I just got the Lazo B in a premium container
The perks are bad!)))
