32 [CAZNA] Mister_Teatime Member 171 posts 13,996 battles Report post #1 Posted September 30, 2017 I've hit them showing flat broadsides with my Montana numerous times, from 15km, from 11km , even from 8km. Rare to do more than 4-5k damage. A USN or IJN BB would be dead; a KM BB would lose 20-40K easy. Is this RNG trolling me? I've aimed at the waterline? No cits. I've aimed higher, as if it was a KM BB - not much better. Should I just chip away at the superstructure? Meanwhile they do 10-20k HE volleys from any angle and start two fires. Is there a trick? Just seems like a waste of shots even firing at them at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

27 [1-ATF] pwnies5600 Super Tester_ 730 posts 4,972 battles Report post #3 Posted September 30, 2017 A conqueror walks into a bar. There is no counter. I read that from somewhere a while ago. Props to whoever said that. Jokes aside, I'd say go with the burning. The Conqueror's armour can be a little finnicky at times, depends whether you get lucky. After all, dispersion is RNG based so... kinda expected ya? (Or you can try aiming for the conning tower? Might get some good damage with regular AP pen) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

733 [BLESS] Rina_Pon Member 1,351 posts 12,106 battles Report post #7 Posted October 1, 2017 The anti-UK BB gameplay seems to be largely invariant up through the tiers: Avoid a frontal BB vs. BB engagement. Swarm them with the help of smaller ships, get your CV to do the dirty work, or run away while dropping shells on them at max range in the hope they'll get bored and head somewhere else.

245 [BRU] HaiiroMin47 Member 2,725 posts Report post #15 Posted October 16, 2017 You have the so-called newbie & useless team that most people have been complaining about, right? Point & aim at the enemy Conqueror, then press F3 button. Press multiple times in between 10 or 15 seconds to get better result. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
542 [REPOI] LordTyphoon Member 1,104 posts 21,730 battles Report post #16 Posted October 16, 2017 (edited) Your best chance of killing a Conqueror is to hope that the internet connection of the Conqueror player inexplicably disconnects, then kill it for easy damage. Otherwise, it is unbeatable. Edited October 16, 2017 by LordTyphoon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
