Aloha,

Hey folks, so I am reading a lot of replies that are just speculation and conjecture so I am going to address some of the information that I can right now.

1: The UU missions you currently have and you receive until Feb 12th will have a hard expiration of Dec 31, 2020. Any missions that are not complete by then you will receive some sort of compensation for. No I do not know what that is, YET but I will let you know as soon as we can.

2: Any UU's you currently have, will remain, WE WILL NOT remove UU's you have earned. That being said, some changes to them may occur as some of the UU's need balancing, etc.

3:The UU's ARE NOT the upgrades, nor will they be the upgrades, that originally were discussed during the announced then thrown out NTC. UU's are designed to change a way a ship may be employed or played. For example: Republique's UU, decreasing her main battery reload time to 19 secs (positive impact) but redu...

Aloha,

IMO as a DD main that owns all three... each plays differently, so depends on what you want to do...

Kidd: Do you wish to troll CV's? Cause thats how you troll CV's. Still has US 127's which IMO are unfortunately power creeped, though they do a wonderful job at starting fires due to ROF.

LoYang: Do you wanna troll capping DD's? Cause thats how you troll capping DD's. The best DD hydro at tier (maybe Z23 gives her a run for her money but still) Unfortunately she has the US 127's too, see above.

Cossack: Do you wanna sneak up on enemy DD's, not be outspotted and have a good single torp fire ability? Cause she has all those things. PLUS with IFHE, she will utterly EAT other DD's, with perhaps the exception of someone in a French DD that is fairly good. Her ROF isn't top notch, but it isn't bad and she hits hard, PLUS, she does have a good % for fire chance, so BB's tend to HATE you.

Just my 2 cents...

Well I think that Black was set at the correct price and it's a IX, Somers is a whole different beast as is Nestry, I don't think the steel price is wrong.

Aloha,

Happy Holidays! I am currently grinding my flakes now... still won't have enough for Somers.....

Hmmm, just curious if you run her as a "torp" focused ship, ever think to run her with the US dual 127's to increase her AA? The 100's are nice and TBH I tried the AA build of Hare YEARS ago when i first got her, but ya... wondering if this might be effective for none gun set ups.

Aloha,

This is something has always happened since the early days! (I've seen it since the game went live) I call it the "I have them and have to use them" syndrome. Last night I was in a battle in my Gremy and there was a Nurnberg spam torping the entire battle even though the enemy was over 15 from them, eventually what I was attempting to avoid, occured and he went pink... but ya....

In the cruisers that have long range torpedoes I don't get too upset, because they have the ability to hit things, but to see people in cruisers that have the range, still ignore almost 3 full gun reloads to position their torps only to get blapped....

I always try to remind people that their primary battery is, well, their guns.

Either way, situational awareness isn't common sense and common sense is not common.

GG, Mahalo and Hapa Holidays!

Aloha,

HOOOOYAH! Congrats! Montana was/is one of my favorite Tier X BB's to play. Her speed, maneuverability, AA and ability to make cruisers, DD's and BB's go away with a resounding BANG make her so fun! Enjoy!

We are actually talking about that today and compiling the data, stby.

Ah understandable, that just means I have god access to see posts muahahahaahaha if you look under my screen name, that is my actual position.

Aloha,

OYE, been there done that many times... recently I had a battle in my AUDACIOUS where I had 6 kills, 2 caps, 215k dmg dealt and 170k spotting dmg and we only lost because I couldn't get to the last cap in time to stop the points....

Unfortunately the reality of trying to heard cats into cooperating to get the W....

But IMO you can say you did your dues and carried the best you could! GG

Aloha,

I will pass this up to our team as you are definitely not the only one asking. I myself would love to have a Torpillow of any size since I am a DD main!

Mahalo, Happy Holidays!

Aloha,

I will tell you personally I ignore the GZ's dive bombers when I am driving her... Only because after a few drops having the bombs on left and right cross in flight and still miss is, well, frustrating. As stated above I think they are probably the only dive bombers that I use that I try to fly broad into targets. TBH, her rocket and torp planes are where your damage will come from. But that is just my personal opinion.

Aloha,

No one will get intentionally chat banned for simply mentioning a ship or game mechanics, etc. If they did get chat banned somehow on accident they can put a ticket in and ask for clarification. If something is said that meets some of our prohibited language or words, you can get automatically chat banned. You can also get chat banned if you receive enough reports from other players in battle in a certain time frame.

All that being said, when a report is placed, our mods can go back through the chat logs and add a ban if applicable. This could occur a short time after said offense.

GO TEAM HAPOCOLYPSE!

Aloha

Just FYSA, we weren't a middle man for this charity, the "donate" link went straight to tiltify.com and the only connection we had was entering the rewards and polls. So everyone that donated DID go straight to the charity, and every penny donated went straight to Save the Children.

Furthermore, we also pulled A LOT of giveaway items from our store rooms to gift to people that did donate, water bottles, socks, beanies, coins and other World of Warships paraphernalia (just from the NA office alone). Along with our EU folks waxing a leg at certain milestones and the picture above of our Senior Community Manager dying his beard pink for another milestone.

The point of us streaming this event was to get engagement and have a fun time with our amazing community all while raising funds for Save the Children from our NA, EU and RU regions.

Thought @Kalvothe woulda posted a picture but since he has not! Here is one!

Aloha,

Well said! I have always tried to tell people this game is significantly more fun and better all around when div'd up with friends and actually working with clan m8s!

Aloha,

Good break down right here! Her AP is pretty devastating to just about every class!

Aloha,

GG! I have grown to really value her play style. At first I did not think I would like how the Italian cruisers played myself, but I have found that they can be beast mode when played correctly!

Mahalo, Happy Holidays!
