how to play british cruisers world of warships

I'll do a post on Goliath when I reach her. Im playing through the ships without free xp to get a fuller experience. AKA if its T9+ good luck!īuffing the armor on the side and reload will make this cruiser a contender in port, instead of a collector ship that looks nice but plays trash. You cant push in with these T8 and T9 cruisers because you get blapped by any BB with over match of 25 mm. We all know you wont bother with the AP pen because you are too busy designing 8 Smolensk's, but this ship line was rushed, and is not balanced properly. Buff the Upper belt (Auxiliary room armor) to 40mm. It has the same 'Really, how was that not a citadel!?' reaction factor that the Albemarle has.īut no *tanky* cruiser can have a 25mm side plate. Its painful because it has so much potential and you want to do good but your 18 SECOND RELOAD stops any sort of DPM. If you wont fix the AP pen fix the reload so I don't get 4k salvos with 8 pens on a broadside every 13 seconds. (Baltimore has same caliber 203 with 5000 AP alpha and 10 second reload.) The AP alpha needs a buff from 4500 to 4700. My recommended fix is to buff the reload from 13 seconds to 11 seconds and increase the HE alpha from 3300 to 3700. The AP pen is terrible, and HE alpha is lacking and the guns are the only thing the ship has going for it over something like the chappy or Baltimore.

You will be punished for showing broadside in this ship and that's how it should be. I think that we should get the Stalingrad's and Moskva's out of our heads and remember that BB's counter CA's, CA's counter DD's, DD's counter BB's, and CV's counter everything.ĬA's shouldn't have anti BB armor and I think that this ship does a good job of holding the balance of tanky and squishy. it has almost all the pieces to make a well rounded cruiser. I'm not going to tell you how to play these ships because i really don't know what they are supposed to do.

I have to start with saying that I wanted to enjoy this ship line.
