32 [BLUMR] AkiDucky Member 193 posts 5,470 battles Report post #1 Posted October 3, 2017 I'm already near in getting my first 19pt captain for the yamato. My problem is that I probably won't be playing yamato that much unless I get to buy the perma camo. I also don't have mutsu yet (not planning on getting kii, real ships only), so I'm foreseeing that the elite xp potential would be wasted if I keep the captain on the yamato. I plan to transfer the captain to akizuki but that would make the captain a bit too incompatible with most ijn premiums. So, where should I put it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1,801 icy_phoenix Super Tester_ 7,897 posts 10,892 battles Report post #5 Posted October 3, 2017 Keep it on Yamato. You can always use the captain in Atago / Takao if you have concealment expert. If you move your captain to some other ship, it will take a long time to retrain unless you decide to spend the doubloons. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't really feel the loss of DE on atago so it's fine but I'm really bored of atago already. 940k exp already. It has been my credit grinder/retrainer/mission doer for a long time. My other premiums are only scharnhorst and prinz but I only bought them coz the hull is sexy. 2 hours ago, drakon233 said: amagi/fuso/yamato No amagi, no real life service record.

2,306 [MRI] Thyaliad Member 3,739 posts 16,281 battles Report post #7 Posted October 3, 2017 Like Icy said, keep her on Yamato. Alternatively if you have the HSF Harekaze you can transfer the captain to Akizuki and use her for both the Akizuki and the 100mm gun Harekaze. Harekaze is one of those ships which really benefits from having a deep captain build. Another option is Fuso, so that if you ever get bored in PvP, you can play some PvE scenarios and still get good elite captain xp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't have the harekaze and the sale is over so.... For the scenarios, I'll buy mutsu for that. I just don't like the look of fuso's pagoda. Too tall and too thin. 2 hours ago, cplbao said: Ashigara demands u put it in ashigara Oh, yes.

This..... Personally, i'd pick Mogami 155. Club people even on T10. Go pick PT+AR+DE+IFHE+CE+EM+(Vigilance/BoS/LS+PM/PM+DCCA+IFA) make it rain of 15 x 155mm HE every 10s Dont forget to grab SGM 2 + SGM 3 for maximum Ultra Super Late Braking and sea drifting (3.4s RST). With that and if you good enough to kite, it's not that hard to dodge multiple BBs shooting at you even though you lack of concealment mod (10.3km sea detection - CE only). ===>> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

94 [911] Moldavia Member 367 posts 10,364 battles Report post #14 Posted October 4, 2017 I'm in the same boat (no pun intended!). I'm anticipating getting Yamamoto pretty soon and should have enough commander xp saved up by then to pump him up to 19pts. I guess I'll put him on Amagi as I don't have a Yamato yet and don't really like t10 battles all that much anyway. He'll probably get most of his play on an ARP Kongo - possibly my favourite ship - although it seems a bit of a waste for his talents. I like Fuso, but have a terrible WR with it (40%) but Nagato is also a possibility. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can identify sarcasm without the /s. I just really want to dismiss the extra ones. But you can't dismiss them. Besides, why would I want to dismiss an arp captain I clearly made an effort on, anyway? Edited October 4, 2017 by DonnerSushi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2 [EZPZ] LightDarkMaster Member 68 posts 3,838 battles Report post #21 Posted October 5, 2017 Put the captain in a premium ship if you had one (preferably mid/high tier ones). It can grind elite captain exp and free exp too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
