As a DD player, I urge everyone to ignore destroyers, it is useless to shoot at them. Unless you are on my team, then shoot them.
as a DD player, I second this mans words of wisdom.
Also when SLM say never travel in a straight line he's LYING! We DD's will Never Ever fire torps at you. For we are just tiny little ships with small guns, that could never hurt you.
@@stevenwiederholt7000 agreed
Always remember our guns are 100-150mm tiny and can’t hurt. Plus torps are so much slower then ur guns. Just leave us alone to try to feel cool;)
In competitive, you have to knock out DDs first, only if radar isn't much of a threat to the team.
I'm a retired navy guy, and my friends have suggested this game.... So I'm watching a bunch of videos before I dig in. So for the guy that's "getting ready to play", this is actually informational, and I appreciate it.... Thank You.
Raven its a good historical game which adds to the interest for me. My dad was with Vf-11/Vf-111 in WWII and Korea so i enjoy the history behind the game. I am in the TF_16 clan and we have some retired and active military in our clan as well. Best wishes .
So did you actually follow-through in your virtual-naval career....?? Did you actually start playing, or did you take my Dad's approach of talking about the idea of doing something, but never ACTUALLY doing it.....?? Just wondering, bc you went to the trouble of watching UA-cam videos about it, and even commenting on some of them, apparently -- and all of that before ever even having actually picked up the controller to get a feel for it, first-hand..... 🤔
You will definitely need to get a hang of how we use the reticle to aim and fire (dispersion being what it is). Even a perfect shot can miss 100% BUT if you don't make those perfect shots, they will always miss because you led to far, or trailed. Or missed above or below because the other ship dodged. I don't mind missing most of my rounds as long as they land where the ship is. It's much better to blame the RNG than how I misjudged their speed, bearing and relative angle to my guns.
@@xallstatex2910 militarily, I did 6 years in the Army, and switched to the Navy where I retired 16 years later. But I was an engineer who enjoys ships specs.
@@ravenflight7099 Nooo, I'm asking you about THIS GAME.... Did you actually ever start playing it........?? 😆
But what you said is pretty freakin kool, too, though...! 😎
Rule number 1: protect green DDs as if they were your children and hunt and destroy red DDs as if they were the devil.
Or just treat them as if they were somebody else's children
As a Cruiser Main and Battleships on the side this absolutely speaks to me.
it's easier to say than done. They could easily dodge bb shots especially from long range
Target the rapid firing cruisers which will make a lunch out of any destroyer. Let the destroyers fight it out among themselves. Well. Unless you're a rapid firing cruiser.
@@cavscout1739 I've been called worse.
5 things..... the first 5 minutes -
Don't charge into 5 ships in your brawling BB.
Don't try and cap in a 3 radar match till you know where all the radars are.
Don't get stuck nose in till you see how many red ships are pushing a flank.
Dont be giving broadside in your BB or cruiser to launch those torps that will never hit the target and losing half you HP or more in the process.
Finally play to win cos no one gives af how much damage you did in a losing side.
Good luck predicting any of the above without a DD or CV....
In short, teamwork and doing your part c:
1 thing missing: keep your turrets facing the direction you want to shoot next. Use Shift+X / Ctrl+X and/or RMB to look aroung without moving your turrets.
You should also pre-turn your turrets if you know you're about to make a drastic turn.
i like to look the direction, and hold RMB to look around freely with my turrets continuing to point the direction of when i clicked to hold RMB.
it's amazing to me when I am sunk and watching the game...how many players don't pay any attention to where their rear guns are facing....when I am always trying to set that up ahead of time to make sure I can hit with all them when I need to.
Shift+X and Ctrl+X are two slightly different functions.
Ctrl+X locks turrets in place and will NOT turn as you actively maneuver which is functionally identical to the RMB/free look mechanic.
Shift+X will keep your turrets locked and trained on the location you were aiming at the time that it was toggled. This will cause your turrets to automatically spin while you're actively maneuvering. This variation of turret lock is huge when you're about to fire on a target that is coming to a stop in smoke or perhaps they beached as you lose LOS and then they go dark. Boom. Use this and secure the kill.
In both cases, simply press "X" to disable the lock so that your turrets will spin into proper position.
@@wbRosario I feel like CRTL + X is the more useful application... It's less about keeping your turrets locked into it's current position and more about turning them to correct one while you're free to maneuver/camera look. The best example of this is when you're changing course near the map border or you're setting up for a drive-by.
#6: STOP IGNORING YOUR MINIMAP. Ctrl+ makes it bigger. Look at it all the time. Look at it at the start of the battle. Look at it after every salvo. Look at where your team's ships are. Look at where the enemy ships are. Look for where you might need to reinforce your team. Look for where you can outflank the enemy. Look for where you need to run the hell away from. Look for where you need to push into in order to win. All the information you can have is held within the minimap. Ignore it at your peril.
A big failing of mine. Was having the best game of my life going down a flank in an Atago. I check the map and my whole team changed direction, the reds we’re pushing and I was all alone. 3 way crossfire.
Now that subs are a part of the game, here’s a mistake for each side to avoid.
As a surface ship: do not immediately run when you get pinged or use damage control. The pings are a visible effect.
Instead: immediately charge the sub by following the pings to the source. When you see a crescent shaped white effect in the water, you’ve found the sub. It will be right behind that crescent shape. If you have hydro, use it at this point, then use your depth charges.
As the sub: do not ping too often or too much. If you payed attention to what I just said, you have concluded that the sonar pings, the thing everyone hates about subs is overhyped and a double edged sword because they give away your general direction.
Instead: you are better off firing off your volley of torps, then turning around, avoiding pinging the enemy until the last second before your torps make impact.
More ideas:
Stop saying things like "ab" or "bc". It will give the enemy a free flank to flank you from and shoot your broadsides. You will lose
If you spawn in the middle, stop running towards a flank, consider supporting the middle cap, especially when one of your DDs tries to cap there
Stop ignoring your minimap
Start counting the enemy ships on your flank and your ships on your flank and decide if you have an advantage or not. Don't push if you are on the weak flank, you will die
All good tips.
Every single bronze game at the start: bc? ab? Its so bad... results in a lemming 50% of the time, too.
@@BruderRaziel you are right, but ppl communicating (even when bad strategy tips) is a good thing. Ranked battles where al of your teammates are mutes also results in a loss most times.
@@boldfella8199 At least for bronze and silver I strongly disagree. When your team choose their strategie before anything is spotted or bad tactics are communicated, I would prefer everyone just splitting 50/50. That way I can adapt and support wherever necessary. I never type a single word in bronze and silver and win 64% on average. The dunning kruger effect is real and trying to overwhelm bronze players with such things as mapcontrol or avoiding lemmingtrains might even be harmful to your own winrate. I know I have a pessimistic view, but in practical terms it works for me :/
AB BC actually not give free flank to enemy.
Team who go AC are go on 2 separate way.
If the other team go AB then AB can crossfire and demolish the AC teams A flank. After it, the B flank need to face to the enemy C flank alone, while they got support from A flank and take 2 cap at once.
After that, one team has AB and a huge advantage, while the other team only has C and half of the team lost.
9/10 times of my battles, the team who went AB or BC (Depending on the map) won the game, while the team who went AC just sailed around while one side lost.

Quick notification, the healing ratio for citadel damage on Conqueror is 10%. Meaning that if you take a citadel(14800) from Yamato, only 1480 can be restored. Which is absolutely a big deal. No offence btw.
I shoulda said it better, I meant that you can eat dirt in Conq because you know that your heal can more than make up for it (not counting citadels)
Don't get hit by citadels - that is all.
The most common mistakes I see (and I do them myself from time to time) is rushing to the middle/caps early on and getting focused fast, not reading the map on what each time and player is doing, and finally taking on poor fights (1v2 or more).
Seeing players rush into die has to be the worst though, and it only takes one or two to cause enough of an imbalance in a flank to cause a blowout game. Every ship matters and you make more money/XP surviving as long as possible, even in a lost game.
Lol that's like the first thing i noticed when i started the game 2 years ago. Everyone rushed in with zero strategy!
As a BB, large / heavy cruiser main, i like playing agressive, putting pressure to the enemy team.
BUT, what most CQ players make as mistake is to push right away, always resulting in a early death. The trick is patience:
Like for example when i play GK, GL, preussen etc, don’t push right away, fire from distance with your teammates. When a flank is exposed or there is a gap you can exploit, than push in. If the enemy DD are dealt with or far away from you, than you can be more agressive as long as you have island cover, absolutely NEVER sail in the open
So again long story short: when you push, only do so when the opportunity is there and you know who you could encounter
This guy gets it. An aggressive "pushing" play style doesn't mean hitting W key at the start of a match and going straight for the cap. One has to get some intel and see where everyone is going. One may want to push a flank but may be better off holding/fighting retreat and if you over commit at the start you will just die. It can be a fine balance though, too passive and you miss a good pushing opportunity or fall behind. Basically, read the the map and act accordingly.
Don't be the first ship the enemy sees :D But, if you're in concert with a team mate or two, take advantage of the guy being pummelled, and land your shells on his attackers. 10 out of 10 times, the attackers are not paying attention to incoming salvoes because they're focused on sinking the first guy they saw.
Tip#1 for DD players, going past the 50/50 line (midpoint in the map or cap) is suicide. You're not only going to find a DD but also all the other unspotted ships coming up behind him, this is doubly so if you're already aimed in on by being located from the captain skill.
everyone misses so im good
@@WojtekPlay - I must be on the other team if they're missing you!
It's good to see that this is mostly stuff I am already doing. SLM, if you haven't already, could you do a video on how to prioritize the three defensive 4-point BB commander skills, especially for secondary builds that can only take one or two?
This is one of your best video. I come back to it regularly as a refresher. The comments from other players is useful. Keep it up
Thanks for the tips. As a newbie I’m going to work on incorporating those suggestions into my game!
Good advice. Please do more of these videos. Would cover how to take torp hits in your BB.
just zig zag and slow down speed and then speed up, don't go in a stright line
Helpful Info. Thanks! Please do more of these.
When it comes to damage repair, I try not to use it when I'm near an enemy DD location. If there was a DD nearby my ship, behind the island, or inside a smokescreen, I try not to use damage repair until the DD is sunk. This is because it can use torpedos which cause flooding. Flood + fire = a very bad time. Even when the DD has been sunk, it might still have launched torpedos, so caution is needed.
Always nice to have: with big battleships I always get the perks that make the heal and damage repair last longer/heal more. Especially for those that are suited for brawling, such as GK, Schlieffen, Preussen, Pommern. The perk that reduces the amount of fires might help as well, but I prefer to have better heals. One less fire seems a bit too situational.
It's not just a reduction of number of fires. It's also a reduction of fire chance.
Repair if
I was playing wow legends on consol last night in a DD and encountered radar for the first time.
It was rather unpleasant to suddenly become visible surrounded by the entire enemy team, lol.
My team of course was hugging the very back of the map.
Also if aircraft carriers are in play, assume you are visible in open water.
I love hunting down carriers in DD. They are usally abandoned by their team.
For New players I have always recommended that they play One Country, One Branch until tier V. Then switch to a New Country and a Different Branch. (i.e. US DD, GER BB, IJN CL ...)
ONLY, once you have 6-8 Tier V ship, do you begin to push on. Doing only One Country-Branch to Tier VIII, then again switching. Again once you have lots (6-8 Tier VIII) then you can push towards Tier X and Superships.
This doesn't mean you have to play EVERY Country and EVERY Branch, but you should have lots of experience in different countries and branches. There are some Branches that I still haven't passed Tier VII.
Finally, you should push your Captains up with as you purchase new ships. Your going to be focusing on the highest tiers, so have your best Captain with them.
Your other thoughts are good.
And switch between classes of ships so that you'll understand what it takes to sink that vessel. Put that information to use as you dodge Kamikaze torps because you timed their reload, sink cruisers with easily hit citadels and burn battleships from the main mast to the keel because 4 fires is better than 1. Carriers. Well. I'll let you figure that one out.
1 stop paying WG
2 enjoy what you already have
3 turn off in game chat
4 do not try to help other players (they aren't worth it)
5 division up with people that actually know the game
Number 2 is an excellent point.
Yeah 4 is pointless cause no matter what you can't cure stupid
Very good video. And I do love BBs that sail in straight lines. Damage score and xp piñatas.
Great video! more of this please!!!
As long you're having fun, time will make you better. Stats are just for the show since you can't win alone no matter how good you are. After all victory comes from team work.
If that is so, how come there are players with over 10000 battles and below 40% win rate? How bad week they in the first place?
Stats don't mean shit for an individual. It's so frustrating seeing idiots look at stats and think it means anything. The only stat you should look at is avg XP per battle. W/l doesn't mean shit. I have 80% win rate in my Petro in ranked. It's prob 50% in randoms. Look at individual stats not win)lose, you'll know if someone does a little or a lot during a match. I've had 2 games this morning with the same DD who stayed in spawn for the first 10mijs, hard to win if your team is idiotic. We don't all play in a div to win games easier.
@@bluej511 I only look at stats for players that act totally dumb during games. And most often the expectation is met: 46% win rate at most. I have only about 2500 battles and my win rate hovers around 50%. If you can't get to a 50% win rate after over 10k battles, it's about time you understood that this game isn't for you.
most of those end of battle stats are never correct ships who do nothing get to be top of the list happens all the time
But you can influence the outcome of battles. Do it more often than the average player, and it will positively impact your win rate. Win rate is no indicator for individual game performance, but it is literally the best indicator for how much that player has in general.
aiming by feel and aiming by looking at numbers of distance and travel time are 2 different concepts of aiming and for the most part most veterans aim by feel, therefore, getting used to aim by numbers is only going to set you back in the long run, and also requires too much information to process increasing micromanagement.
A tip for the heal. There is an official mod that you can add that tells you exactly how much of your health you can heal at any one time. This is really nice for helping you know the maximum healing power of your heal, and when to use it.
The downside of that mod is that it tends to make people be stingy with their heal wanting to get the best value out of each one and end up getting bitch slapped for it because they dont have the hp they need to make whatever play they want to make. While thats a good habit to have, getting the most value you can out of your consumables, sometimes you need to bite the bullet and pop it even if it wont give you the best possible value
@@Zeka_GGWP That is more or less what I do. I try and get the most out of it, but if circumstances require it, I will use a 1/2 heal to stay in the fight.
....mods!
Great tips Sea Lord, very helpful. Could you please add some more tips for smoke use? (especially cruisers) How can I support my team better with smoke? I know I can cover the retreat of a friendly BB or DD with my smoke but how else?
Something you do quite a lot SLM is to do with not altering your aim when a ship you are targetting goes undetected. You do this about 15:50 into the video against the buffalo and you were aiming 300 meters past the line the ship was on so your salvo just sailed straight over the ship. Just a thought. :~)
Hey thank you helped me a lot love your vids thanks😀😀😀😀
I am a universal player period. Nice variety but you have to know the ups and downs of each class and you have to be able to adjust your tactics and strategy accordingly and I am looking forward to jumping back into subs. Flexibility is the key.
I've played 14k games in three years and didn't know the significance of the alternative HUD(spelling?) This type of video is greatly appreciated. I've encouraged my team to watch it.
Additional mods that also arrange the ships and cap timers (so you know if you have a chance), along with bearing and optional reticles are recommended. You can make do with vanilla, but more information makes fighting easier.
Some great tips there when I play BB I queue up HE then pick AP and watch my little DD friends in if they spot a red 🌮 use up the HE to help.
Also as a DD player assume everytime you fire your main guns you are sending up a location flare to the enemy. So no matter how tempting it is...always ask yourself if it's worth revealing your position to use your DDs main guns?
Also if alone and enemy aircraft is looking for you...turn off your AA guns unless they spot you of course.
I like to hold my fire when I see what I know is going to be a big hit coming in that I can't avoid rather than fire right away just for that AR reload buff I am going to have. It catches peeps off guard when I start sending shots their way every 9 sec or so with JB because I have reload booster and an enemy within secondary range.
As a BB my main concern is to be close enough to help DDs but not so close as to be torpedo bait. More BBs need to do this rather than just hang back.
It never occured to me that people actually use the standard HUD. The first thing I did when playing this game was changing to alternative view but I came from WoT so I knew what to look for.
As a previous BB main who now is DD main. I prefer ranked to randoms now. A single DD can win the match in ranked. And the ammount of glue being ate in random is crazy.
Even in a BB Ranked seems to be the better place to game TBH. Smaller teams, tends to be closer matches with a lot of brawling, and while there are blowouts it is easier to at least farm damage/credits. Even with Tier 10 ships I was making a lot of money with a few games. I've had a lot more close, interesting, game in ranked then Random.
Random battles are just blowout games almost every time that are obviously over very early and the next 5 to 10 minutes are just mopping up the remains. Not fun on either side.
I prefer the smaller format of ranked too.
Unfortunately, to get out of the trash fest of Bronze MM, I actually played BB, as a DD main simply because most of the BB just had no idea how to play a BB (don't show your side) and had no idea how to play BB in ranked (don't hide your guns behind an island half the match like it was a normal random).
@@Texas240 I got out of the trash tear with DD just had to Carry sometimes.
Generally if I have 1 fire burning and I know more may be on the way, I pop my heal when the fire's countdown is roughly halfway or just over halfway through
Thanks for the feedback - good food for thought.
I finally started playing DDs, man! DD is hard especially if your team doesn’t support you.
Yes, exactly. Most annoying players are 1) who play chat off, you usually not get help from them 2) who not shoot especially dds or cruisers and then ask help when under torp or HE attack. ... i did wrote hundreds times "kill dds, they spot us", but too often especially BBs like shoot only BBs. etc etc. Average players are not smart, in every tiers, what i played are 1-8, they are too often selfish individualists, team almost always win individualists, too many use same speed too long time and not turn often enough, then they are surprised they die fast.
About the damage control party, i think if you play as a french bb you have to waste them much more because you just take heavy damages from fire/flood
CE is a must-have skill on most ships that can have it, unless your concealment is so bad for the tier (on a BB like, say, Fuso) that you just give up on concealment. Priority Target is also extremely useful on any gunship that has a citadel, and also run-and-gun DDs like the French.
Another good tip is to disable AA on a DD, until you're actually spotted by a CV, unless it already knows exactly where you are. Especially at the start of a match with domination points, you can make it harder for a CV to find you by disabling AA. The key is P by default but should be rebound to something more convenient.
I downloaded this game a week ago....I'm In love with it👍👍👍🤘🤘👌👌👌
In The Expanse Series , 6 martian destroyers and 6 UN destroyers face off to capture\protect a single rogue destroyer ,The martian Win because one destroyer is taken out early in battle by tye rogue destroyer ,so dont die first , 1 less means defeat
When you play Conqueror and someone dmg cons a single fire in their BB :) Also I recommend Yamato to learn dmg con/heal management. People might not know this but the Yamato hull is 50% oiled paper so you really get to know fires!
Don't forget to let your team know he just used damage con on that one fire and this is a REALLY good time to see if you can get 3 started!
Brilliant advice. !!! Thank you.
great vid , but i found sailing straight is safest , i done 90' turns and still bean smashed , but ran for an near by island and tanked and they miss .
dunking has become a thing, in mosvka , dunking dds are a pain to the point , i go after their support .
but why i am playing mosvka , because of long range play , and the mosvka has a good long range mod
Please do more. Especially clan focused battles
after years of co op battles started to play ranked and random and i noticed that 1 team,usually mine, huddles together in a part of the map while leaving enemies to push to them and shoot fish in the barrel. Bring back the flank cover damn it.
Thanks for the 5 tips. Would like to ask a question. How do reds always hit u with every shell. Only one or two of mine hit.
You see the gray line on you ship point it to the tip of the enemy ship and fire most of your shells will hit the hull or citadel and cause tremendous damage
Sea Lord Mountbatten: Don't Just Play One Class. Me: Blasphemy, Heresy Absolutely Despicable! I Prefer Me Battleships!
Blowouts happen when MM puts 4-6 50 - 60+ % winrate players on one team with a couple average (50-55%) players and the rest wayyyy below average players on the other team.
Last point is always an interesting, also I am still curious if AR does not work on heal lost but healed (maybe patched and I lost track of it). My counter to this point is, having a few tenths of a second faster firing time at the cost of tens of thousands of HP or being alive when your team needs you, health is more important in the game. That said, this is from the point of view from a fairly aggressive brawl type player.
Having tried in coop were you can yolo without much fear, healing will make you fire slower.
However, another big reason for not healing is reducing damage taken. Unless I'm mistaken, you can exploit the damage saturation mechanic to reduce the damage you're taking (and also enjoy damage you can heal 100% off) and repair that, while if you had repaired earlier you'd have gotten more unsaturated hits so more total damage (good if you want to get that achievement though).
Damage control consumable. For DDs you are so often put in the position of have no engine, no rudder, no torpedoes etc while trying to run away or hide in your smoke... or popping the damage control. I mean a second nasty volley will probably kill you anyway, DC or no DC.
if you don't have engine or rudder you made the biggest misstake as a DD. You didn't pick last stand.
1- Playing the game
2- Spending money in the game
3- Being frutrated because you are playing the game
4- Saying you will never play the game again
5- Going back to number 1.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention vision and managing spotting range. I found that early on that was my biggest mistake.
"There are 5 classes in this game"
There are only 3 classes and 2 crimes.
As a BB player never sai in a straight line and when spotted by a torp threat always vary your speed , also see dd shoot dd, and don’t damage con a single fire 🔥 and turn into you enemy and present your belt armour to bounce and shatter incoming fire
Finaly somebody that say Cover your DD players in the group , am a great DD player they all want that we go spot sure , bud once we having spots they don't help you no more , and like you say even this Big ships don't shoot even more on DD's , bud one thing is'nt fair you all having mostly somebody with radars in group , that spawn us in a DD smoke , bud let have a DD then a system that can disturb this radar for some time . Sorry my english is'nt so good - Sea Lord Mountbatten - You Are Great! Thanks excellent video congrats !
Great tips, thanks.
I've checked your playlist and can't find a " zero to hero " tutorial for this game? Have I missed something? Just downloaded the game and would really appreciate some beginner tips
I recommend when trying to hit torpedos from a big distance click your torpedo button twice to make them kinda spread up so u have a bigger chance of hitting the target
Great vid, ty!!
This the best advice A lot of US as players cant get threw to noobs in this game even when being nice DD fear is real ! !
as a DD main.... thank you Sea Lord Mountbatten
Kill radars should be a nr 1 tip for any class other than DD's. In most games even if I spot the radar my team just keeps spamming whatever BB is still visible. As a result you can't cap, contest the cap or challenge the enemy DD
While I agree the alternative hud is useful, the base hud does work best with emerson, not knowing exactly how much health a ship has or how long a shell will fly for is a lot more accurate to commanding a real warship, though I get why most people like having more details
It’s mostly a choice of what you like best, a game of numbers or estimation
Learning to play all the classes of ships from different countries is key to being good and proficient at this game. This gentleman is 100% correct
Love the Incomparable gameplay
Good to know that Going after DD first is better than going after other ships of my class first
I have been playing this game for approximately 4 months. How are the red team able to go invisible and how do you play against that.
What does numbers(seconds) on HUD means? Left of targeting
If Conqueror eats a citadel, you heal 10%, so no, eating cits is the best way to make your Conq heal useless. Also, while indeed it is generally better to turn out in a ship, turning in (best at range) can actually work out, because most BB players with some experience will account for opponents to turn out, not in. If you can turn out again or go undetected or behind some solid cover before the next salvo is up, turning in can be a very valid option.
Hello, by presing settings - controls - i completely different loadout... cant find FULL HUD
same
Exactly! Stop sinking Destroyers; let us throw up torpedoes, please!
thank you dude
I’m currently tier IX US BB once I hit X and max out I’m gonna hit up cruisers
I like playing battleships more I recently got the New York and I love getting those citadel shots
I have tried destroyers in 10 matches I was the one being destroyed.
I tried cruisers just wasn't for me
Tried carriers (langley 10 matches) I just kept on getting rushed by 3 destroyers and they went after me first..
And for submarines well they are not in world of warships legends, and if they are well I have only been playing a few days so maybe they appear after unlocking a certain ship? Idk
Sounding like Arthas Roqthar The Cold with that "let It burn" segment lol.
Number 1 - Starting the Game.
I play this game since 2014 or so, got nearly 9000 Battles, and i got to say: The game has become a shadow of its former self. It has become so hollow and predictable.
You see the lineup and can predict with arround 70% of certenty which side will win.
My rule is Destroyers go for unaware/unsupported high value or opportune targets, Aircraft Carriers torpedo cruisers and Battle ships and bomb only Battleships, cruisers I use depending on thier armament but is better to play sneaky because of thier low health and high spotted range. Battleships should go for citadel hits on cruisers and battleships, in support of other ships, not too close so that someone is getting torpedoed, but not far away so that you are vulnerable to air attack. 2-4k radius is fine. The other thing is making sure your destroyer perks are failed towards not being spotted. Can’t hit something you can’t see, can’t react if you never see the destroyer turn away, that’s why Japanese destroyers are so powerful. I got 78k at tier 2 or 3 I average about 30 over all games
Learn to full reverse and turn on a dime. Most BB are even capable of dodging torps this way. It's not always possible, but it can help a lot.
I know there’s videos, two years old bro I hope you’re still playing and I can find you because you are correct on everything and I swear there is a bunch of idiots play in the swing in the higher tier level, the stupider they get
Don't forget to use the mod station! Mods like Regen assist and the info panels are helpful!
any tips on leading shots? i seem to overcompensate and just miss more often that i'd like :(
While the camera is tracking, pretend you shot and keep your eye on that spot in the water and count out the seconds for shell travel and see where enemy is. Adjust accordingly. That's what i do. Or just fire 1 shot and see
Another thing about using the health consumable to early the earlier you use it the less health it replenishes
A video description of some of the terminology used in the game would be great.
I would like to add one stop doing trick, which is don't use the hydroacoustic just after you spawn. I see this happening a lot.
I use hydro to catch incoming torps. If I feel there's a torpedo boat nearby, or I'm fighting one and might get a little focused - nothing like fish closing on your beam to make a lot of your recent life choices come into question.
@@cavscout1739 but there will not be any torps comming for you in the first minute
I noticed you missed one big point on damage con...what about when you're double pinged by a sub?
Pray
from my personal experience, speed juking does work very well outside of DD and light cruisers.
Please support your local dd’s! I play tier 5-7 and am so annoyed at bb’s and cruisers who go backwards from the start of the game and then inevitably lose because we are unsupported. I have also seen battleships turn and run from a single cruiser. Also dd’s who run and hide behind bb’s from the start of the game. Ugh.
More please!
Do you think a balanced attach usually work better than overloading one side?
What do you mean?
Time In playing makes the biggest impact with a player , I say It takes at least 1000 hours before its like a normal routine,at 1,200 to 1,600 should know most everything from ships and using your ship for the best advantages or more . People at 500 hours are still learning . There are a lot of new players and you can tell. Hours playing Is the only way you can get better. And watch Videos. A new player cant even begin to understand without time playing. So to all the new players have fun put your hours In playing thats the only way to get good at this game. YOU will be surprised at what you can do at 1,200 hours playing. Me I have 5,400 hours , wait till you can picture or count when you shoot at ships at range but that takes time. So many things new players will unlock with hours playing. Boy are you going to be surprised at what you can do....Best of luck to new players.
Ah yes I remember just the other day I was playing de zeven provincien and I wasn’t paying attention to the fact that there was an I spotted yugumo on the enemy team… at least I got some cool torpedobeats before I died tho
1. Playing the edge of the map in BBs. 2. Pushing on the weak flank. 3. Playing in irrelevant parts of the map in standard battle mode. 4. Chasing CVs in a DD or sub. 5. Playing DDs without RL.
But no4 makes sense, afterall the reddit is constantly pointing out how op cvs are
Know your ship and know your enemies will make you a very dangerous target on the field. A enemy with 1hp is still as dangerous as a ship with full hp.
Don’t ignore the full health Yamato that’s left alive with 7 minutes left of the game because it’s “too slow to be a big deal”
3:25 that Hud thanks.
10:42 France be like we like forward and back. to troll with everyone.
18:14 Yes more this is use full
You should have addded don't sail broadside to enemies if you can avoid it. I se to many people doing this.
These are super beginner tipps and for that alone you should have included another very important one in this list:
Be aware of the range of your equipment.
Neither Radar nor Hydro has infinite range. Popping them right at the beginning of the battle or when you´re nowhere near a usefull position is a waste of that consumable and can cost you the match. You can configure the minimap to show the range of these consumables.
Great tip. When would you consider popping hydro? When you're about to fight a destroyer so you can spot the torps right away and radar to prevent that DD from smoking away?
