30 Teostra ∞ Member 298 posts 7,845 battles Report post #1 Posted January 16, 2018 i'm doing badly in this ship with 37% wr, the shell dispersion are completely random, even hitting stationary targets at 14km is relies heavily on RNG, the AP feel good if it actually hits and connect, but it doesn't, so is the HE and fire chance, doing only 2 - 3k every salvo is dissapointing, everytime i shoot feels like rolling a dice andhoping it would get good result, and the economic also feels weird, i feel like it has pre buff CV economics, strugling to get good base exp despite in a good games, is Lion really a waste of time exp and money? i should have kept my KGV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, British BBs are much harder to carry in than most players think. Sure you do a lot of fire damage but a lot of it can be healed. You need to pick ships that are unhealthy enough so that when you do hit them and burn them they will die before they can heal back the damage that you do. Otherwise, you are just farming damage.
