If you think they had been blocking you all along and it wasn't just an unfortunate situation where this happened, you could try submitting a ticket to report them for unsportsmanlike conduct. Wouldn't get my hopes up, though. When I get a notification that I'm firing at a friendly ship, I usually stop to check out the situation. Of course, if the situation was critical that delay can get you and your team mates sunk. Yes, especially in Hermes where there are choke points. Even the friendly bots bunch you up at times. These two, one of which I think was just unaware (but the other seemed to have intent...) just kept turning into me, stopping and finally when it really mattered pulled up just beside me at the end when we get the final DD wave. I was getting the "friendly fire" notification for a while, but it was my front turrets as I could still shoot the DDs and others coming (but could no longer launch my torps...). Not a huge deal, it happens but what annoyed me more than those players was the penalty. I guess I should have just sat there and done nothing, let them get sunk and possibly lost the match. I did top the team, but that doesn't matter I guess. Such is the price you pay for bringing a high DPM, AP only CL into high tier Ops I guess. Two slams in my Ipiranga (grinding the same captain) cleared the red... err, pink mist out of my eyes so all is good now. Topped both of those as well. One by nearly 900xp over second place. (Names left in, not shaming. Just highlighting my enraged "pull out all stops" gameplay. lol) Pink was gone after that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of idiots out there who know nothing except pew pew pew. If I find myself in Hermes, or in the early phase of Raptor or Narai, I maneuver slightly away from friendlies.

Frostbow Posted October 3 Author Share Posted October 3 Brennus is a popular topic these days, having been just released for a sky high price of 60,000 Research Reset Bureau points. I am still undecided about getting the 305mm-armed French heavy cruiser, so while trying to weigh the pros and cons, I decided to play the Henri IV again in Operations. With a full lighthouse build and her Unique Upgrade, plus the usual Engine Boost, MBRB, and hydro, I think the Henri for now will suffice—but for how long, I don't know. I can accept the "accurate 305mm that reloads in 12 seconds or less" selling point of the Brennus. But then I also have the Marseille, a more heavily armed cruiser, also with the usual consumables that makes the experience more fun. For sure, if and when I get the Brennus, she will have her first outing in Operations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darlith Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 Cherry Blossom with two 2 man divs, all t6 ships. Not an great performance by myself, I probably should have shot more at the DDs towards the end, but was worried the airfields weren't getting shelled by the longer range BBs yet. As the match ended the WV 41 was still trying to land longer ranged shots on the ships instead. Luckily the Dallas was on the ball, huge shoutout to him to, he knew when to play aggressive. The Dallas and the Queen Eliz did most of the work on the airfields and saved us from a loss. This is also why so often I dread when divisions show up in ops.

I don't mind divisions in OPs; I hope they are good and know what they are doing rather than a division just messing around. I've had both types. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While Satuma's guns can definitely put the hurt on enemy ships, Hannover (and other German secondary ships) can send barrages of secondary fire on multiple ships faster in addition to main gun fire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frostbow Posted Sunday at 10:33 AM Author Share Posted Sunday at 10:33 AM My Zaō scored 2024 Base XP in the year 2024. 💪 Made special with our Shimakaze scoring "Insert Coin" Achievement. And now for something amusing and interesting... A single AP shell from an Izumo bot dealt 14,480 damage. Here's the normal values at Port. Even with the Super-Heavy AP Skill, which gives +7.5% AP damage, Max Damage is at 13,868 only. O7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darlith Posted Sunday at 03:40 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:40 PM Despite it only being 3 stars I am rather proud of this Cherry Blossom run. Bismarck can be a tanky ship, took over twice my total HP and lived. Helps of course that this one has a decent repair circle in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
